Senator Rand Paul, R-Ky., introduced legislation this week that would eliminate federal liability protections for vaccine manufacturers, which is a legal shield that has been in place for four decades. The bill, cosponsored by Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. If passed, the bill will make changes to the federal law to abolish the liability shield provided to vaccine manufacturers under the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which largely protects vaccine manufacturers from product liability lawsuits and requires most injury claims to be directed to a federal compensation program....

In early 2021, some patients were developing a rare yet life-threatening condition in which their blood would clot after getting a COVID-19 vaccine. In these patients, their bodies were mistakenly attacking their own platelets, causing them to clump together and resulting in blood clots and low platelet counts. Researchers didn’t know why. Now, a new study may offer an answer. In a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine, researchers in Australia, Germany, and Canada analyzed 100 patients who took adenovirus vaccines and developed vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia, also known as VITT. They found that VITT was likely...

A former White Sox pitching prospect is suing the team, claiming he was pushed into taking a COVID-19 vaccination in 2021 that resulted in severe allergic reactions that eventually derailed his career. Isaiah Carranza, a 12th-round draft pick of the Sox in 2018, alleges team officials warned him he would be ‘‘blacklisted’’ if he didn’t get two doses of the vaccine, meaning they wouldn’t release him from his contract for opportunities with other clubs even though he had ‘‘no prospects of moving up’’ with the Sox. Carranza got the Pfizer vaccine and soon began suffering ‘‘extreme dizziness, nausea, near-fainting and...

It turns out Ms. Monarez really wanted to keep pushing the dangerous COVID vaccine, and that’s what got her tossed. CDC Director Susan Monarez has been OUSTED by RFK Jr. after she attempted to push for the COVID vaccine, per multiple reportsMultiple other top CDC officials are out as well, as they too complained about rescinding approvals for the vaccineGood riddance!

Professor says he had immunity after contracting the virus so ‘it made no sense to force him to get a vaccine’ Nearly five years since the COVID-19 virus took the world by storm, those claiming injury from government vaccine mandates continue to come forward with new cases for litigation. Such is the position of Professor Russell Stewart (pictured), who lost his job after his opposition to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s vaccine mandates. Now, the professor is suing the Democrat governor and leaders of Lake Superior College, a public community college in Duluth. On Tuesday, his lawyers at the New Civil...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's top vaccine official, Vinay Prasad, has left the agency after just three months as Director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, a government spokesperson said. Prasad, an oncologist who was a fierce critic of U.S. COVID-19 vaccine and mask mandates, had been appointed in May by FDA Commissioner Marty Makary. Together they had promised to speed regulatory action and pilot new review pathways. In recent days, criticism of Prasad's tenure has intensified around the agency's handling of a gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy from Sarepta Therapeutics (SRPT.O), opens new tab. The...

Dutch lawyer Arno van Kessel was leading a civil lawsuit against Bill Gates, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, and Klaus Schwab over alleged COVID vaccine-related crimes, he was recently arrested by Dutch special forces in a late-night raid and jailed without formal charges.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just made a stunning move inside the Department of Health and Human Services, terminating two top officials. Heather Flick Melanson, his Chief of Staff, and Hannah Anderson, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, are OUT. According to ABC News, the dismissals were sudden

'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...

In a stunning political and medical upheaval, 12 U.S. states have ignited a firestorm by pushing legislation to ban COVID-19 vaccines — declaring them unsafe, ineffective, and a symbol of misplaced trust. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently triggered a major policy shift by removing the vaccines from CDC recommendations for children and pregnant women, citing new findings. For years, critical questions have been silenced. The promise that COVID-19 vaccines were “safe and effective” is now being called into serious doubt — and the consequences may be far worse than anyone imagined. Could the vaccines themselves...

World-renowned infectious-disease epidemiologist Martin Kulldorff — who was fired from Harvard Medical School last year after refusing the COVID vaccine — just got a new gig. Kulldorff has been named a member of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices. Kulldorff, who had refused the COVID vaccine because of his infection-acquired immunity, lost his appointment at a Harvard-affiliated hospital in the early days of the COVID era, and in March of 2024 was officially terminated as a med school faculty member. Since the COVID lockdowns began five years ago, Kulldorff argued that tactics such as...

It's getting ever harder for sane people to deny what "vaccination" does—and not to see that (real) scientists, and some pols, are starting to close in on the perpetrators of this stunning crime Senate Report Exposes How Federal Health Officials 'Downplayed' COVID Vaccine Risks, Failed to Warn Public May 21, 2025 The records show how U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials under Biden avoided issuing a formal warning to the American public despite a safety signal that the COVID-19 vaccines could cause myocarditis and pericarditis, especially in young men. Link Dr. McCullough Drops the Hammer in the...

The Biden admin 'violated the inviolable principle of informed consent,' Senator Ron Johnson said. The Biden administration was aware of potentially deadly side effects associated with COVID vaccines and chose not to alert the public about the risks for months, according to a bombshell Senate report obtained by The Daily Wire.

The “safe and effective” narrative collapsed on camera during Senator Ron Johnson’s explosive Senate hearing on COVID-19 vaccine injuries Wednesday afternoon. Senator Ron Johnson brought the receipts, exposing how the Biden administration DELIBERATELY hid vaccine harms from the public. Then Dr. James Thorp (OB-GYN) revealed miscarriage data so disturbing, it left the room silent. This is the Senate hearing they never wanted you to see. I turned three hours of footage into a five-minute read.

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...

Anthony Fauci has been hit with criminal referrals from seven U.S. states over deaths and injuries caused by Covid “vaccines” and other pandemic-related charges. This week, legal groups filed formal criminal referral requests to the attorneys general of Arizona and Pennsylvania. The referrals were submitted by the Vires Law Group and the Former Feds Group Freedom Foundation. The groups are urging state prosecutors to open criminal investigations into Fauci and other prominent public health and government officials. Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), is accused of committing multiple crimes during and after...

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.”

Soon after President Trump won the presidential election in November, British drugmaker GSK brought an unusual claim to federal prosecutors in Manhattan, according to people familiar with the matter. A senior GSK scientist, who formerly worked at rival Pfizer, had told GSK colleagues that Pfizer delayed announcing the success of its Covid vaccine in 2020 until after that year’s election. The scientist disputes that account of what he told colleagues. But prosecutors are taking a closer look at what GSK shared with them, which is potentially politically explosive. Trump for years has claimed that Pfizer sat on the positive results...
