The amazing part of communism is the ability to exert the most ridiculous statements oblivious of the irony or hypocrisy involved. It’s as if they assume that whatever they say will be given equal weight with obvious truths and common sense, when most of their statements are in conflict with both. In recognizing the dogma surrounding this, it isn’t so much that they put exaggerated lies forward as the truth, but that they seem to garner so many listeners. One must stand back and marvel, not at the lies or liars involved, but those who stand ready to accept it,...

Sara Brenner, worked as a career employee at the FDA until she was recently promoted to the No. 2 position under the new FDA Commissioner. Marty Makary. Brenner has recently stated that she never took the COVID vaccine despite it being a requirement for federal employees.Brenner’s reasoning was that she was pregnant and concerned about the safety of the vaccine for both her and her child. Perhaps she arrived at that conclusion because she’s an expert on nanobiotechnology (although the picture she provided at the link is a curious choice), and therefore had serious and fully legitimate clinical reservations.The question...

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will no longer recommend the COVID-19 vaccine to minors and pregnant women, a significant departure from government policy during the pandemic. The Wall Street Journal reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will remove the recommendations when it enacts new policies for approving vaccinations. The exact timing of the announcement wasn’t clear, the people said, though it was expected in the coming days. The CDC currently recommends that everyone six months and older, including pregnant women, receive Covid vaccines. It wasn’t clear if the department is planning to remove...

IntroductionVaccination campaigns are widely considered to be a public health success story. Since Edward Jenner pioneered the smallpox vaccine in the 1700s, they’ve significantly reduced disease rates around the world and are credited with saving millions of lives—primarily in low- and middle-income countries. In the years following the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s been a rise in vaccine naysayers and a consequential uptick in disease outbreaks; misinformation about side effects is a root cause, experts say. Even in countries with low communicable disease rates, illnesses are getting harder to protect against as people opt out of vaccinations. Another major challenge is...

Well, this is interesting. Cleveland Clinic decided to track 53,000 employees to see if the flu vaccine prevented them from getting the flu and, well...

Smallpox: The Triumph over the Most Terrible of the Ministers of Death Smallpox has been one of humankind's greatest scourges since time immemorial. Even illnesses as terrible as the plague, cholera, and yellow fever have not had such a universal and persistent impact. Smallpox is believed to have appeared at the time of the first agricultural settlements in northeastern Africa, around 10 000 BC (2). It probably spread from Africa to India by means of Egyptian merchants in the last millennium BC (3). The earliest evidence of skin lesions resembling those of smallpox is found on the faces of mummies...

Journalist Matt Taibbi spoke to Brian Kilmeade about Mark Zuckerberg coming out against government censorship of social media and revealing the pressure he faced from the Biden administration to censor content on Facebook and Instagram. "On the whole, it is a net positive," Taibbi said. "Zuckerberg coming out and saying all this confirms a lot of what I reported and a lot of the information that came out from Jim Jordan's committee investigation into the Facebook Files. Even if it is not 100% sincere, it confirms some things and suggests that maybe these tech companies are afraid to continue doing...

LA officials say they do not have enough firefighters… they literally TERMINATED firefighters for not taking a COVID vax ... Let me get this straight. • California is burning. • All of its fire chiefs were selected based on their LGBTQ status. • Gavin Newsom spent all of the state’s fire resources on illegals. • He hasn’t called in the National Guard. • The LA Mayor is nowhere to be found. Gross incompetence. Gross mismanagement. ... First rule of Government You do not tell the truth about government ... In 2020 Janice Hahn worked overtime to fire the firefighters that...

President-elect Donald Trump said on Dec. 8 that he will give Robert F. Kennedy Jr. the freedom to investigate the potential link between vaccines and autism if the latter gains Senate confirmation to become Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS).Kennedy has said for years that autism is likely tied to childhood vaccines.He was nominated to serve as HHS secretary by Trump last month and has promised sweeping changes to agencies under the HHS, like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).The NIH supports and funds...

South Korea’s Excess Deaths Skyrocket Among Vaccinated Population South Korea’s almost universally Covid-vaccinated population has suffered a staggering five-fold surge in excess deaths since Covid mRNA shots were rolled out for public use. Prominent Korean researchers are raising the alarm after obtaining official data that exposes the massive spike. A trio of researchers from the city of Daegu located in North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea published their findings in a report on excess death data during the Covid pandemic from 2020 to 2022. The report was published in the Journal of Preventive Medicine & Public Health. The study was led...

In answer to the YouGov poll question "Would you vote for or against a candidate just on the basis of their position on the abortion issue?" Fifty-eight percent of Democrat respondents said "yes." Democrat presidential nominee Vice-President Kamala Harris "this majority support for protecting the sacred right to an abortion is why it is essential that Democrats win this election. There is no bigger constraint on a woman's freedom than being stuck bearing, birthing, and rearing an unwanted child. Some even call it an '18 year prison sentence,' but in many ways it is far worse." "Legally, a parent is...

Harris' deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty pushed tech companies to crack down on 'vaccine misinformation'... A current top campaign adviser for VP Kamala Harris was deeply involved in pushing Facebook to suppress "misinformation" in an effort to control the political narrative on COVID and other issues. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted in a letter on Monday while expressing regret that his company, Facebook, was pressured by the Biden-Harris administration to censor Americans, particularly regarding COVID-19 content, bringing to the forefront actions taken by Harris' deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty as part of that pressure campaign. Flaherty, who previously served as...

This is Kamala Harris’ ‘joyful’ vision for the future, and Americans can expect a sequel to 2020 if she’s elected this November. The biggest clue that Kamala Harris would be an authoritarian president is the senseless Covid shot mandate she’s forcing on her staff.One of the worst abuses of power in the general response to Covid-19 was forcing Americans to take the mRNA shot. Nearly every major employer, including the federal government, required that employees take an untested drug to “vaccinate” them from a virus that the majority had already had. Worse still, the shot did not prevent people from...

New Zealand codifies forced injections in martial law ‘Pandemic Plan’.. Under the skin is the final authoritarian frontier; as many have noted before, if you don’t have control over what is injected into your body, you don’t have freedom in any meaningful sense of the word. If the Kiwis aren’t rioting in the streets of Auckland at this very moment, if this isn’t the straw that broke the camel’s back — either because the information space in New Zealand is so tightly controlled that they don’t know what their government is doing to them or because they are too psychologically/spiritually...

A surgically-enhanced mother gave the finger as she was jailed for selling fake Covid vaccination cards at the height of the pandemic. Jasmine Clifford, 34, flipped the bird after she was sentenced to one to three years in state prison Thursday for forging as many as 250 fake vaccination cards that she sold on Instagram for $200 each. The mother of two arrived in Manhattan court very late on Thursday wearing tight grey shorts, a black t-shirt, black sneakers and a pair of expensive Loewe sunglasses. She kept the shades on throughout proceedings out the proceedings and even while she...

My doctor has been pushing me to get the 23 valent pneumonia vaccination. I already had the PCV 15. Any recommendations from health professionals on site would be appreciated. Thanks.

The director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, declared “it’s time to be more aggressive in pushing back on anti-vaxxers.” During a talk titled “Celebrating 50 years of immunization progress,” Ghebreyesus said: “You know the serious challenge that’s posed by anti-vaxxers, and I think we need to strategize to really push back.” “I think it’s time to be more aggressive in pushing back on anti-vaxxers,” he stated. “I think they used COVID as an opportunity, and you know all the havoc they are creating.”

The sports world was shaken up on Saturday when PGA Tour golfer Grayson Murray died at the age of 30. The two-time PGA Tour winner had withdrawn from the Charles Schwab Challenge on Friday, two holes shy of completing his second round, citing an illness – he had been five-over on the day and three-straight bogeys, and +3 in the tournament. Murray's parents, in breaking their silence on Sunday, confirmed that Murray died of suicide. "We have spent the last 24 hours trying to come to terms with the fact that our son is gone. It's surreal that we not...
