Trump administration policy tug-of-war between big medical groups that want COVID vaccines back on CDC schedule for healthy kids and pregnant women, groups that want mandate ban extended to health sciences students. The Trump administration is getting pulled in opposite directions on its COVID-19 vaccine policy, sued by mainstream American medical associations for removing jab recommendations for healthy children and healthy pregnant women and pressured by jab opponents to further restrict the novel therapeutics, which continue to be mandated in some settings. Now public health officials are faced with new evidence the jabs accelerate the cancer with the third-most deaths...

During some of the darkest days in American history, when COVID fear ruled the airwaves and mandates crushed personal freedom, one man chose principle and freedom over power and obedience. Dr. Kirk Moore is a decorated Navy flight surgeon who doesn’t just fight for lives; he also fights for basic human dignity, something that was sorely lacking during Biden’s dystopian COVID-era. When the Biden regime stripped Americans of their right to choose what went into their bodies, when people were being forced to choose between a jab they didn’t trust and the job that fed their families, Dr. Moore quietly...

'The mandate negatively affected tens of thousands of service members – hundreds of thousands including spouses and children'.. A former Space Force officer's objection to the military's Biden-era COVID-19 vaccine mandate still haunts him over three years later... Joshua Zermeno, a former officer who dedicated part of his career to space superiority, having served in the U.S. military for 13 years. In August 2021, Zermeno objected to then-Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin's military COVID-19 shot mandate, questioning both its "efficacy and legality." For this, he received two Letters of Reprimand (LORs) and a "Do Not Promote" recommendation that blocked his...

Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida’s top health official, co-authored the preprint paper.. Florida adults who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine were more likely to die following vaccination than Moderna COVID-19 recipients, according to a new preprint study that was co-authored by Florida’s top health official. Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida’s surgeon general, and other researchers identified nearly 9.2 million Florida adults not living in institutions who received at least two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine less than six weeks apart between Dec. 18, 2020, and Aug. 31, 2021. They narrowed the group to nearly 1.5 million, half who received Pfizer’s vaccine...

Dr. Tom Shimabukuro heads the CDC’s Immunization Safety Office... Records from a top official at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are missing, the CDC’s parent agency has informed a U.S. senator. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials told Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) in March that “they are having difficulty locating records,” Johnson said on April 9. More recently, HHS officials said that Dr. Tom Shimabukuro’s records “remain lost and, potentially, removed from HHS’s email system altogether,” Johnson added.

"I have grave concerns that not many people are going to be interested in that deal," said attorney R. Davis Younts, who represents military members and veterans. Former military members who left the service over the COVID-19 vaccine mandate have been offered the opportunity to return and receive the same rank and pay as before, but only if they claim their exit wasn’t coerced. Several say they cannot attest to that. While President Trump has said that he wants military members who were forced out of the service over the Biden administration’s COVID vaccine mandate to be reinstated, former service...

Under Joe Biden, approximately 8,000 service members were discharged from the military for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine. In January 2025, President Trump ordered a full reinstatement to any service member who was expelled from the armed forces due to the COVID vaccine mandate, restoring them to their former rank with full pay. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth joined Fox News to discuss efforts to welcome back these service members who were discarded and treated so badly by the Biden administration. Hegseth stated, “We’re psyched. This is one of the made promises kept from President Trump. We have followed...

A new peer-reviewed study links the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines to long-term changes in genetic structures that can provoke an inflammatory response, and lead to the onset of cancer and autoimmune disorders. The study by 19 German scientists was published last week in Molecular Systems Biology. The researchers said their findings may account for “post vaccination inflammatory diseases which occur in a small number of vaccinated individuals.”

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has halted a Biden-era contract to create a new COVID-19 vaccine, Fox News Digital reported on Tuesday. “While it is crucial that the Department [of] Health and Human Services (HHS) support pandemic preparedness, four years of the Biden administration’s failed oversight have made it necessary to review agreements for vaccine production, including Vaxart’s,” Kennedy told the outlet in a statement. “I look forward to working with Vaxart and medical experts to ensure this work produces safe, effective, and fiscal-minded vaccine technology,” he added. The HHS contract is with...

A California judge denied BART’s requests to overturn the verdict, saying the agency failed to show an undue hardship for not granting religious exemption.. A federal judge in California has rejected an effort by Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) to overturn a jury verdict that awarded $7.8 million to six former employees who were fired for refusing to comply with the agency’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate on religious grounds. In a Dec. 30 order, Judge William A. Alsup of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California acknowledged minor “imperfections” in the jury trial—including flawed instructions to the jurors—and...

At issue is a vaccine mandate for BART workers in San Francisco that was imposed in 2021.. Rail transit officials in California’s Bay Area have been ordered to pay more than $7 million to transit workers who were fired because they refused to get a COVID-19 vaccine years ago. On Oct. 23, a federal jury in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California sided with six former San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) workers who had refused to get the vaccine for religious purposes. BART was ordered to pay the group more than $7.8 million, with...

Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach announced Monday he is suing pharmaceutical giant Pfizer for misleading Kansas residents about the safety and efficacy of its COVID-19 vaccine. During a press conference in Topeka, alongside Deputy Attorney General Fran Oleen and Assistant Attorneys General Kaley Schrader and Melanie Jack, Kobach detailed the allegations lodged against Pfizer. “Pfizer made multiple misleading statements to deceive the public about its vaccine at a time when Americans needed the truth,” said Kobach. The complaint, lodged today in Thomas County District Court, accuses Pfizer of misleading Kansans about the vaccines’ risks, including potential harm to pregnant women...

With the military facing a recruitment crisis, Rep. Nancy Mace called the Pentagon’s ‘failure’ to rehire these troops ‘unacceptable.’.. The House Armed Services Committee adopted an amendment in the annual defense policy bill on May 22 that, if cleared through Congress, would force the Pentagon to rehire U.S. troops who were fired for refusing a COVID-19 vaccine. The measure was adopted late on May 22 by lawmakers on the panel, who marked up and advanced their version of the annual appropriations bill, authorizing a defense budget of $849.8 billion. The 2025 bill, titled the Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and...

A Utah mother who says she was “permanently disabled” after taking part in the US clinical trial of AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine is suing the drug manufacturer because it failed to cough up enough cash to cover her medical expenses. Brianne Dressen, 42, was “the picture of good health” when she started the British-made vaccine’s clinical trial in 2020 — but ended up developing a severe neurological condition, the lawsuit filed Monday alleges. “I walked into the clinic fine, and walked out the beginning of a nightmare I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy,” Dressen said, per the court papers. The...

Two former workers sued ABC in June 2022, accusing the network of religious discriminationABC is set to head to court over a lawsuit filed by two former “General Hospital” crew members who accuse the network of religious discrimination, saying they were fired for refusing to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. In an order issued on Tuesday a Los Angeles judge stated that plaintiffs James and Timothy Wahl — who are father and son — may have “sincerely held” religious beliefs that ABC should have been accommodated by ABC by providing them with other options outside of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, which...

It may take more than 10 years for someone injured by a COVID-19 vaccine to receive a decision on whether their claim is eligible for compensation by the government’s vaccine compensation program—if they receive a response at all. U.S. health officials responded to questions on America’s failing vaccine injury compensation system in a hearing that left the vaccine-injured feeling like addressing the system’s shortcomings is not a priority on Capitol Hill. As of Jan. 1, there were 12,854 claims filed for injuries caused by COVID-19 countermeasures with the government’s Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP), including 9,600 related to injuries caused...

Mark Twain famously said that a lie gets halfway around the world before the truth even starts putting on its shoes. Here is Exhibit A in contemporary proof of the most famous American writer's maxim. ... It only took four years, the courage of a handful of independent medical experts who risked their careers by contradicting the federal government, the mainstream media, and the medical establishment, and the fact that something resembling the free press remains viable in this country, thanks largely to the internet. Now, finally, the truth about the COVID-19 vaccine is beginning to be made known to...

The Pfizer COVID-19 “vaccine” injected into billions of arms was not the same one used in Pfizer’s clinical trials. There was a "bait and switch." The clinical trials tested "Process 1" while the public received "Process 2." And what they never told you is that "Process 2" was only tested on about 252 people, instead of 40,000 people. They also didn't tell you that the vials were contaminated with plasmid DNA. A new study by Kevin McKernan and colleagues found "the presence of billions to hundreds of billions of DNA molecules per dose in these vaccines. Using fluorometry, all vaccines...

The number of Americans complying with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s latest COVID-19 vaccine recommendation has dramatically waned, the federal agency warns. According to CDC data, approximately 14 percent of US adults have received the latest COVID jab that became available in the fall. In other words, a whopping 86 percent of Americans don’t trust the Biden administration’s agenda and see through one of the biggest scams forced on the public to date. “COVID-19 vaccine uptake is lower than we’d like to see, and most people will be without the added protection that can reduce the severity of...
