I think Bakker was a born criminal and probably would have stolen nipple milk from siblings if he had any.

“I find these nano silver con artists all the time on Facebook.”

Don’t knock it til you have tried the products. Great stuff. My brother’s dermatologist wondered what he had put on his face after she had removed some spots since they had healed so well. He had to bring the silver ASAP gel to his follow-up visit. Maybe you missed my previous post.

As far as the FDA? Well. . . . .

Some you tubers have had their bank accounts shut down, as well as their paypal accounts. So its not just people we don’t like.

It can happen to FR, especially once Trump leaves the White House.

Silver is a valid medical ingredient, also incorporated in 2nd & 3rd degree burn cream.

I dunno. I figure there’s a good amount of people who start well with good intentions, but don’t end that way. Sad sight.

To those who have suffered severe burns, a prescription of
silver burn cream is a life saver. It is extremely expensive, but has a long shelf life. Wife was burned in a fire, doctor
prescribed a big jar, which we keep for emergencies.

“Sold his house and most of his stuff and moved to their “compound” which then was in SC”

when i used to fly into Charlotte, planes often flew low right over the ruins of this compound on their way to landing in Charlotte; the compound came to look like a ruined aztec or roman city completely overgrown with wild jungle ... it was quite a site from the air ...

Is big pharma “arresting” Baker’s website any different than big pharma (Fauci,Birx, Gates) attempting to halt the hydroxychloroquine therapy?

Bakker could win a lawsuit over this. Curious that FDA said there was NO REMEDY for Covid-19, when they knew hydroxychloroquine held extremely high promise in 2005. The
Gilead pill, $1000/apiece, is a flop.

According to CBS News, The Jim Bakker Show’s website offered a pseudo-scientific product called “Silver Sol Liquid” — advertised as four 4-ounce bottles for $80 a pop — in February 2020, which claimed to have the ability to diagnose and even cure COVID-19. Naturally, the FDA caught wind of this faux coronavirus treatment and sent a letter warning that these unproven claims were in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. After receiving the FDA’s attempt “to protect consumers from certain products that, without approval or authorization by FDA, claim to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose or cure COVID-19 in people,” Bakker and Morningside Church Productions were sued by the state of Missouri for being in violation of the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act by “falsely promising to consumers that Silver Solution can cure, eliminate, kill or deactivate coronavirus and/or boost elderly consumers’ immune system and help keep them healthy.” The lawsuit also pointed out that there is “no vaccine, pill, potion or other product available” to treat the virus (via CBS News).

Incidentally, its JUST THE DAMNED FLU!How many over the counter flu medicines are out there, 10,000?

Sure, Jim & Tammy became laughing stock, but their decit pales
incomparison to many of them. I don’t think the Bakkers had a Gulfstream Jet.
