This is a quote from a video shot back in 1966 of Dan Smoot, detailing the differences between a Constitutional Republic and a Democracy. America is NOT a Democracy Constitutional Republic vs. Democracy: A constitutional republic, like the U.S., is governed by a constitution that limits government power and protects individual liberties, whereas a democracy allows the majority to decide what is right and wrong, potentially leading to tyranny. The U.S. was founded as a constitutional republic to prevent the dangers of pure democracy, which could degenerate into dictatorship. Individual Liberty vs. Universal Equality: The ideal of a constitutional republic is individual liberty, protected by the Constitution and the rule of law. In contrast, democracy emphasizes universal equality, which could lead to promises of equality and security but often results in poverty and serfdom. Role of the Electoral College: The Electoral College is a safeguard against majority rule, ensuring that smaller states and rural areas are not overwhelmed by the populations of large cities. Removing the Electoral College would be a "huge mistake" as it prevents urban areas from governing the entire country and ensures that government is run by the consent of the governed. Historical Context: Smoot references the Founding Fathers' opposition to democracy and their preference for a constitutional republic to protect against the tyranny of the majority. He warns that democracy, if not checked, can lead to a dictatorship that promises but fails to deliver equality and security.

A tiny bee just did what chemotherapy couldn't. Scientists in Australia discovered that honeybee venom can wipe out 100% of aggressive breast cancer cells in under 60 minutes. And the healthy cells around them? Barely touched. The breakthrough came from Dr. Ciara Duffy and her team at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research, working alongside the University of Western Australia. They tested venom drawn from 312 honeybees and bumblebees across Australia, Ireland, and England. The target: triple-negative breast cancer and HER2-enriched breast cancer. Two of the deadliest, most stubborn forms of the disease. The weapon: melittin. The same tiny peptide that makes a bee sting burn. At one specific dose, melittin tore through cancer cell membranes completely within an hour. Within just 20 minutes, it shut down the chemical signals cancer cells need to grow and multiply. Bumblebee venom, which lacks melittin, did nothing. Zero effect, even at high concentrations. Scientists then recreated melittin synthetically in the lab and got almost identical results, meaning no bees need to be harmed to develop the therapy. Published in the peer-reviewed journal npj Precision Oncology, the findings are still early-stage. Human trials haven't happened yet. But one thing is clear. Nature has been hiding answers in plain sight all along, sometimes inside the smallest creatures on Earth.

@ValerieAnne1970 There is a community notes attached to this post. I agree with you, but the note is arguing that there are decades of research confirming no link to autism. I need to give the community note some consideration. I see that you have your data for your case. hmmm.

RFK Jr: “CDC THREW OUT THE STUDY SHOWING DTP VACCINE CAUSES AUTISM.” “NONE of the vaccines have ever been tested for Autism. The only one tested was DTP... THAT study FOUND the link... CDC threw it out.” They KNEW. They buried the evidence. And kept injecting our babies anyway.

This week, I discovered a massive unmarked storage room with boxes full of forgotten equipment. Just because we’re in D.C. doesn’t mean the government can waste your money. I’m going to make sure some of it is returned to the taxpayers.

🚨 STUDENT CLAIMS SHE “SOLVED SCHIZOPHRENIA” DURING A RESEARCH PAPER — AND PEOPLE THINK SHE MAY HAVE JUST ACCIDENTALLY EXPOSED A MASSIVE COVER-UP A woman is going viral after posting a breakdown claiming modern psychiatry may be focusing on the WRONG part of the brain when it comes to schizophrenia. And the deeper she goes into her theory… the more intense the video gets. According to her: “It’s the f*cking thalamus… and the thalamus is being neglected.” She claims schizophrenia may not primarily be a dopamine disorder at all… but instead a failure in the brain’s sensory filtering system. Her theory centers around the thalamus, the part of the brain responsible for processing and relaying incoming information. And according to her, when that system becomes “leaky,” the brain starts trying to fill in missing information itself… creating hallucinations, paranoia, sensory overload, and distorted reality. “Your brain will always try to make sense of something… so if it’s missing information, it’s just gonna make up its own.” The video goes even further into claims that: • schizophrenia may be tied to glucose dysregulation in the brain • hallucinations are caused by a “leaky” thalamus failing to filter information properly • antipsychotic drugs only mask symptoms instead of fixing the root problem • low-carb diets could increase risks for dementia and Alzheimer’s • ADHD may also be connected to the same “leaky filter” mechanism • the brain creates hallucinations when it tries to fill in missing sensory information • current psychiatric research may be focusing on the wrong brain regions entirely But the moment hitting the hardest? When she said: “Maybe Big Pharma doesn’t want to fund it… because sick people make more money than healthy people.” Did this student accidentally expose a crack in the entire psychiatric industry… and is that why nobody wants to talk about the thalamus? 📹: TikTok/lilithmaraofficial
