A very interesting read: A history of Pfizer

A few highlights:

"Pfizer was founded in 1849 by two recent German immigrants to the USA, Charles Pfizer and Charles Erhart. Both in their mid-twenties, the two men set up what was initially a fine chemicals business in a Brooklyn factory, using a loan from Pfizer’s father as capital."

“The ‘first industrial war’ involved drug producers as much as weapons manufacturers”

"By the 1960s, Pfizer were at their “most diversified point in [its] history” – in its own words, its interests “stretched from pills to perfume, and petrochemicals to pet products”."

“Pfizer is the 6th largest lobbier in Washington, and spent $25 million on lobbying during the passing of Obama’s healthcare reform legislation alone”

"The sheer size of the organisation is mindboggling, totalling well over 100,000 employees. One commentator compared the company’s 38,000 sales reps to “three army divisions”, a sales team that has been immortalised in a Hollywood rom-com of all things – Love and Other Drugs, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway"

Remember when Trump said "wait till you see what they are going to do to your second amendment"? (Something along those lines) Remember the UN Arms Treaty?

Biden's "bumbling speech" at the UN didn't sound so bumbling as it did indicative. At the 2:29 mark a clip is play on Stew Peters' show

Biden Looks to UN to Assist in American GUN GRAB!
The Stew Peters Show

"The Non-governmental organizations that support the Arms Trade Treaty aren’t shy about what they want it to do. They want to control the international sale of all weapons. Not just tanks and jet fighters, but everything: Shotguns, rifles, handguns, and all relevant ammunition, accessories, and spare parts.

And these same NGOs, places like Amnesty International, want systems to ensure the treaty is “effective.” That’s the word they like, “effective.” In other words, what they want is a global firearms registry."
