Pfizer’s huge win at the Academy Awards; Florida’s anti-grooming bill blows up leftists; Bruce Willis retires from acting; Fauci tells BBC about lockdown costs; California tables a mandate bill...
Out to dinner last evening with a few liberal golf buddies and Bruce Willis came up. One gal said, with sincerity, ‘I heard he went somewhere without his mask and maybe caught something.’ I couldn’t even roll my eyes. There is no way to enlighten a brick…
LOL now that was funny. I have an image in my mind of all the friends I have tried to save... the joke is on me because they are bricks. :(
I have friends with numb feet (arthritis?!), myastenia gravis (got worse with every shot... started with pneumonia shots (2) ...then 3 covid shots and a flu shot! Involves eyes, ears, jaw, and now an angiogram.), limping (sore leg), can't sleep - sore arm, headaches, purple fingers, aphasia, stroke, heart (arrhythmia, ablation, now blood thinners), thrombosis, fatigue. They blame it on age or having COVID and are so glad they got the shot because it could have been worse! Oh, like the five people I know who have died from the shot? That worse??? I am so sad and angry and frustrated... I need to stop fighting with bricks!
And interesting that the article goes on to say that "Kimmel, who originally thought the smack was staged, said he quickly realized it wasn’t fake at all."
Of course we can trust the opinion of Kimmel, who likely has near-zero fighting (or acting) experience and can rival Steven Colbert in the smug Leftist superiority department.
The slap is an outstanding example of how conspiracies can remain hidden. There must be numerous people in on it and there is even a tweet acknowledging it was fake from a woman who purports to be married to somebody involved in security that night.
I wanna know how on earth you make all these connections, such as the ones with Fizer and alopecia and such?! I mean, how do you even know to go looking?! I’ve heard several reports about the face slapping, but you are the first person to connect dots between the insult, the v🪓 effects, and the drug companies involved.
Such intriguing information! But really, I am amazed at the abilities of folks like you to look for and find connections that most of us don’t even consider.

Moving to the great state of Florida sounds better every day. Question: who will be DeSantis’s successor? Psalm 146 - when the princes of men die, their plans die too. Serious question.
Huge kudos to the FL rep Joe Harding who returned his $ to Disney! That is a man of real integrity! I pray he gets re-elected and more like him. He could give lessons to state reps in my state.
Who can possibly replace Gov. DeSantis, indeed? It's a question conservative active Republicans in Florida are asking ourselves. One name that has been mentioned is Dr. Joseph Ladapo, our Surgeon General. If we can hold onto Gov. DeSantis and not lose him to either electoral cheating (unlikely) or to the presidential race (a bigger threat), then we have him until 2026. If Dr. Ladapo or a similar candidate could win in 2026, then we'd have a breather for 4-8 years. By then perhaps the new 'crop' of very conservative Representatives and candidates for the state House will be seasoned and well-known enough to run, e.g., Joe Harding, perhaps, or current candidates (who could use your donations, other support, and prayers!) Chandler Langevin and Tim Sharp, both endorsed by Anthony Sabatini and unlikely to compromise on any issue of substance.
As much as I would love to have him run for president, I think FL needs him. The other states need to be reminded of their rightful state sovereignty under the US Constitution, and DeSantis is doing that!
DeSantis MUST stay in Florida. The only thing that has prevented the U.S. from following in the steps of Australia and Canada is our federal system led by strong state governors like Ron DeSantis. Whether you loved him or hated him, the one thing even Trump discovered is that there are very tight reins on presidential power. DeSantis as president would be a waste of a talented leader and probably the thing that puts Florida into the "blue state" camp.
I feel for those in red areas of blue-city-dominated states. I don't have a good answer, other than that you might have a chance if you get everyone who wants change to organize and *work* for it. You probably can't be saved from outside the state. See how The Virginia Project took only 24 months from mission statement to sweeping all state offices red, in a purple-turning-blue state, where the blue is concentrated mostly in suburban Washington, DC.
That one is hard to overcome. As, of course, they knew at the time they proposed it, as a 'fairness' measure. When Democrats cry, "Fairness!" think 'fraud.'
I feel for the Oregonians that are trying to fight back. I’m a 40 yr Oregonian and my friends and family all live there and they are so depressed about the state of Oregon. With the mail in ballot cheat that’s probably closer to 40 yrs it is hard to have hope. Brownstain and her minions have done everything in their power to destroy Oregon.
And for those who are fighting to cut the head off that evil snake she is…. There’s already more ready and willing and worse than she is to take her place.
It is very discouraging to a once beautiful state. 😞
My body is in Florida but my heart is with conservative Oregonians fighting in every way they know how.
I really hope someone rises up that can rally the conservatives together to fight. Right now all I see is more of the same. I hope I’m wrong.
Same here in Seattle, Washington. King Inslee and the leftist city council has destroyed our once beautiful city. Crime, homelessness, filth, and an obsession with sin is everywhere. So many strong conservatives are heading for redder pastures.
I understand 😔 My best friend lives in Washington and is really hating it there. Has little to no hope of anything changing and would leave first chance they got. I’m going for a visit later this year. I wanna be excited but I’m not. If it wasn’t for family I would never go back.
His leadership in Florida is what gives us hope for something better someday in Oregon. We have been held under Democrat Dictatorship for 30 years and hope is all we have.
Thanks! Just read the link posted by another commenter below! Still, it’s so helpful to have so many people making connections that I would have been ignorant of.
I live in FL and asking that same question. Who will come up following him? If it’s not the right person, all that he is doing can be gone. Freedom is very fragile now.
The next morning I saw someone on social media comment on how interesting that Pfizer has an alopecia treatment at same time the topic comes up at Oscars. From a slight side angle of the slap posted by a podcaster, there's something about Smith's face that made me reply that he should try to get video views from the backstage cameras to see expression on Smith's face. Maybe more of an apologetic 'here it comes' than anger?
Smith definitely laughed at the joke at first -- that is on camera, with his wife first smiling, then rolling her eyes at the joke. Still, I don't know that Smith would have willingly done that damage to his reputation.
But the best was what someone posted yesterday -- from the Babylon Bee, headlines from the different outlets about the slap:
Those of us who read A LOT and have the time to so are willing to share what we have learned. Normally we are called Conspiracy Theorists but thank you for encouragement to continue to report to others what we see in the many consistencies and inconsistencies. I believe most of us that do the digging want the facts in front of the faces we care about so they can make an informed decision for themselves and then to pass that information on to those they care about. United we stand. Divided we fall.
Well, the rest of us who don’t have as much reading/listening time truly appreciate it!
One of the things I am loving about Substack and about Jeff’s in part are all the very interesting AND RESPECTFUL people and discussions that show up in the comments! I learn so much!
Pfizer sponsors the AA for one thing... A 2021 video features Will Smith Teaching a Kid name "CHRIS" How to stage a Fake Slap -- https://tinyurl.com/4c2m4e4e
Dr. Robert Malone asked his followers to contribute to Sen. Ron Johnson. I’ve been contributing to every campaign you’ve shared even though I live in Georgia! I think a couple of you thought leaders and freedom fighters should coordinate the multipliers campaigns and really expand the reach! We have to make sure the good guys keep winning.
I too just donated to Ron Johnson! Also, like you I have donated to all that Jeff and Mark Levine ask us to donate. As I live in Virginia and I I saw the tide change here, I can only give a little each time as a self employed massage therapist. I don’t make a ton of money, but I believe in the fight. So I skip the coffees and the junk food for the small amounts I donate. I pray every day that the world rights itself.
Went to Baptist South Hospital (Jacksonville) this am for some routine tests. Lady told me that there were only 20 cases of "Covid" in the Hospital and none were serious. They are not seeing any major issues here. Just some more good news
Serious suggestion that has been on my mind for my family for awhile.... C and C led cancelling of all Disney+ subscriptions. My wife and I had our honeymoon at WDW and have taken our large family multiple times but probably won't be going back. These companies only learn when you affect the stock price. Going woke = going broke needs to be a thing. Honestly I will hate losing the Marvel and Star Wars stuff but it's worth it.
Disney has a city called "Reedy Creek Improvement District". If cities can have their charters pulled for speed traps, why not pull Disney's for much worse,
Please add this matter to the special session list.
Thank you Jeff! You helped me connect the dots on the Academy Awards kerfuffle. I didn’t watch and don’t really care what they do, but the bitch slap was ALL the news! I kept wondering why these actors, acted out this scene? Now I know! 😂
Newly reported side effects yikes. I went to school and for the first 7 years one classroom, one teach, and in all those years never did a teach talk about their personal life with me or the class, why does that teacher need to talk about his sexuality fe
I'm old enough and from rural area, that in K-4, we called teachers Mr., Miss or Mrs., so among the ladies, we knew single ladies and the married or widowed. (We didn't have Ms, yet) If we knew more, it came up in course of what was going on (my first grade teacher's daughter was a substitute for a few days) or we knew them from non-school activities (church, scouts, 4-H, etc) but they were always accorded respect as if we were in class. They were adults, they were respected as learned elders, even when just out of college. They were one of the adults that you were to trust with a problem or for help. Not all of them may have been deserving but they weren't trying to be buddies or chums.
And I also called out the breathless nimrod for repeatedly calling students "his children". BACK UP Bozo. Flat out said they are students and not his children and to get that straight! 🤬😡.
I must be way older than you, we called all our teachers Miss, Mrs., or Mr, through 12th grade, and after, if we happened to see them in the community after graduation.
Ah, gotcha. --- Rereading my comment, I just realized it was the same throughout college, too. --- These people are just sick, no matter what you call them or what grade you're in. They are a menace to the older kids, too, sadly. It's just that really young ones do not need to be exposed to all the crap they're gonna have to deal with later on.
These people with fetishes and bringing what should be private intimacy behaviors out to children is disgusting. Saw posted photo of these idiots in harnesses, leashes, muzzles, on all fours in front of a young girl about 7 with a pride flag. Sad that her family thinks this is normal or necessary. 😥
I hate to even talk about this since that’s exactly why this stunt was orchestrated, but it stretches believability to think the slap heard round the world was spontaneous when everything about these events is meticulously plotted, and it’s SOP to include a “wardrobe malfunction”–type event to generate buzz for this near-extinct breed of entertainment.
And it wouldn’t surprise me in the least to see Pfizer’s hand behind this, just as Big Pharma’s hand appears to be behind every ill of society—including the rapid onset gender dysphoria phenomenon, which manufactured an entirely new lifelong clientele for hormone replacement therapy, the victims of which will likely become dependent on pharmaceutical therapeutics to combat the psychological damage inflicted on them as children.
And the message Pfizer is sending: Pfizer is not just selling drugs, it is normalizing violence and feting a man for defending the honor of his cuckolding wife. Not a far cry from Disney fighting against laws protecting children from sexual depredation.
No more Mouse in this House! I was born in 1953 in Southern CA. At 2 years old my parents started taking me to Disneyland. I had many, many years of magical adventures there but what a perversion this place has become! Writing to those stinkers at Disney today.
Thanks for the suggestion, Jeff! I've posted the CCDF article in three places, with your description of them as "a new post-pandemic non-partisan group prioritizing parents’ rights, fair elections, and individual freedom issues," attributing the description to you, as an attorney who has worked with them, and explaining why (using your reasoning and attributing the idea to you) I'm sharing an opposition article. The bonus is that now FB's AI will be further confused and less likely to target me. "Confusion to the enemy," lol!
"I’m not saying Chris and Will faked the slap. Who knows? But it sure was a great night for sponsor Pfizer, a real marketing coup." You're not saying it, but I will. I thought it was fake the first time I saw the video. It became more fake with every repeated viewing.
My wife and I re-watched "Wag the Dog" a few weeks ago. Albeit satirical, the movie led me to recall Hollywood input in both Iraq wars and the NATO Intervention in former-Yugoslavia. Watching "Wag the Dog" led me to re-examine Jean Baudrillard's essays that comprised "The Gulf War Did Not Take Place." His argument was that the Gulf War was just a propaganda/war marketing exercise.
So much of what we are forced to digest by media and entertainment is fake. I can't even take sports seriously anymore because I am not convinced that results are not scripted in WWE fashion.
Why not stage an incident to draw attention to a medical issue to market a product? In the spirit of Baudrillard's essay, "The Slap Did Not Take Place."
As an aside, I am willing to bet that whole "Lia Thomas" thing is fake. Why not pay a male athlete to pose as trans-female entirely to disrupt the collegiate sports and media landscape to advance a larger goal?
I used to like both of them back in the day. Sadly, I am coming loathe pretty much all of Hollywood and what passes for the entertainment industry. I read today how Bono of U2 recently dropped by the Capitol to thank the police for preventing a bunch of 'red hats' from overthrowing the government. I always thought Bono was a phony but I liked U2 going back to the early 80s. It's getting to where I can no longer separate the art from the artist.
It makes sense, doesn't it, particularly after watching the silly outrage over the fake Will Smith-Chris Rock exchange. The whole woke-trans thing is an attack on traditional conceptions of gender and the nuclear family. What better way to further undermine these concepts than to attack sports and the very concepts of gender identity and competition.
It's either that, or some wealthy Elon Musk-type, with a brilliant sense of humor, bankrolling so-called "Lia" in order to expose the idiocy and hypocrisy of the media and the collegiate athletic system. Give "her" a guaranteed income in exchange for being a saboteur.
Remember Joaquin Phoenix's rapper routine a few years ago? It was all fake, just like Eminem's 'hard core' routine.
The (non-RINO Patriot) Party should rapidly escalate the policy of eviscerating ANY corporation or entity that does not walk the talk on conservative American values - ESPECIALLY those that purport to be classical family entertainment providers. Both sides of the political divide in the US can play this "cancel culture" crap and it is past time the left feels the sting of their own BS.

I am so sad and angry and frustrated... I need to stop fighting with bricks!
You must have met my entire family of bricks 😂😂😂 there are enough of them to make a wall. I hate to even admit that but it's the truth!!!
😂😂😂love it! A wall! See, Jeff is rubbing off on us!!
I thought it was "I can't breathe"?
Too soon?
Bruce caught dementia at the hot dog stand? Lol. What are people thinking? Poor Bruce though. He’s one of my favorites.
maybe the crazy lefties can use the Pfizer alopecia drug after they pull their hair out
😂😂
Lmaooooo
The slap was staged:
1) Security was tipped off that there would be an altercation involving Chris Rock and to stand down: https://amidwesterndoctor.substack.com/p/there-is-a-lot-to-learn-from-will?s=r
2) Screen capture shows Chris Rock bracing for impact: https://roundingtheearth.substack.com/p/deep-fake-world-the-slap?s=r
No doubt it was staged, and I thought that from the first I heard of it, but didn't know why. Now I do.
I think it's fake too. We only get to see one (1) camera angle. Where's all the other camera footage?
A camera was ready to pan over to Smith as he uttered his expletives.
You're right, plus they got two angles of his wife, from her left and right, but funny how we only see one camera angle for the "slap." Hollywood....
@Charles, Thanks for the links to the additional reading.

I completely agree! This is not the time for DeSantis to run for President. I’m sure the Rinos would love to defang him that way.
Yes, I know. We need many more governors like him who realize and will USE their states’ rights and sovereignty.
I know but we need him... ;)
We need him in Florida. I am not a Trumper but the prospect of a "Trump Revenge Tour" would be worth it.
We need him as president! We are dying out here in eastern Oregon...

Oregon went to all mail in ballots 30 years ago and from then on became a living hell with only Democrats at the helm.
That one is hard to overcome. As, of course, they knew at the time they proposed it, as a 'fairness' measure. When Democrats cry, "Fairness!" think 'fraud.'
What could he do for Oregon? Remember States Rights?
I’m obviously just whining… We farm in Oregon otherwise I would move back to Florida!!!

Maybe DeSantis would redistrict central and eastern Oregon into Florida. We can hope, right! 😂 Bend has changed so much in recent years. 🥲
Florida instead of Idaho? Why not?! ;)
Good luck getting Bend on board 🙄😂
It wouldn’t help. Even with Trump as president we still had Kate Brown. So unless and until Oregon gets a traceable paper ballot system...
Exactly!
His leadership in Florida is what gives us hope for something better someday in Oregon. We have been held under Democrat Dictatorship for 30 years and hope is all we have.

I've posted the CCDF article in three places, with your description of them as "a new post-pandemic non-partisan group prioritizing parents’ rights, fair elections, and individual freedom issues," attributing the description to you, as an attorney who has worked with them, and explaining why (using your reasoning and attributing the idea to you) I'm sharing an opposition article. The bonus is that now FB's AI will be further confused and less likely to target me. "Confusion to the enemy," lol!
Love it!
"I’m not saying Chris and Will faked the slap. Who knows? But it sure was a great night for sponsor Pfizer, a real marketing coup." You're not saying it, but I will. I thought it was fake the first time I saw the video. It became more fake with every repeated viewing.
Yes, it’s Hollywood!!! That’s what they do!
My wife and I re-watched "Wag the Dog" a few weeks ago. Albeit satirical, the movie led me to recall Hollywood input in both Iraq wars and the NATO Intervention in former-Yugoslavia. Watching "Wag the Dog" led me to re-examine Jean Baudrillard's essays that comprised "The Gulf War Did Not Take Place." His argument was that the Gulf War was just a propaganda/war marketing exercise.
So much of what we are forced to digest by media and entertainment is fake. I can't even take sports seriously anymore because I am not convinced that results are not scripted in WWE fashion.
Why not stage an incident to draw attention to a medical issue to market a product? In the spirit of Baudrillard's essay, "The Slap Did Not Take Place."
As an aside, I am willing to bet that whole "Lia Thomas" thing is fake. Why not pay a male athlete to pose as trans-female entirely to disrupt the collegiate sports and media landscape to advance a larger goal?
It was pretty bad acting... need to take back a few awards!!
I used to like both of them back in the day. Sadly, I am coming loathe pretty much all of Hollywood and what passes for the entertainment industry. I read today how Bono of U2 recently dropped by the Capitol to thank the police for preventing a bunch of 'red hats' from overthrowing the government. I always thought Bono was a phony but I liked U2 going back to the early 80s. It's getting to where I can no longer separate the art from the artist.
My brother raised same idea about Thomas, and wondered how much being paid to distract, unsettle, etc
It makes sense, doesn't it, particularly after watching the silly outrage over the fake Will Smith-Chris Rock exchange. The whole woke-trans thing is an attack on traditional conceptions of gender and the nuclear family. What better way to further undermine these concepts than to attack sports and the very concepts of gender identity and competition.
It's either that, or some wealthy Elon Musk-type, with a brilliant sense of humor, bankrolling so-called "Lia" in order to expose the idiocy and hypocrisy of the media and the collegiate athletic system. Give "her" a guaranteed income in exchange for being a saboteur.
Remember Joaquin Phoenix's rapper routine a few years ago? It was all fake, just like Eminem's 'hard core' routine.
The (non-RINO Patriot) Party should rapidly escalate the policy of eviscerating ANY corporation or entity that does not walk the talk on conservative American values - ESPECIALLY those that purport to be classical family entertainment providers. Both sides of the political divide in the US can play this "cancel culture" crap and it is past time the left feels the sting of their own BS.
With all the crazy going on in the world we can all use a good laugh. Please watch this:
