Corporate media is a good start, but it goes way beyond that. Yes the leftist media is bought and paid for, but does anyone think it stops there?

How much does Berenson haul in with his "tens of thousands of paid subscribers" on Substack? What were terms of his secret twitter settlement and how does that square with the expectations of people who contributed to his cause? Simple calculations based on public info says his Substack income alone is over a million a year. Does that influence him?

What about Daily Wire? It's now a huge financial entity lead by the never-wrong Ben Shapiro (just ask him). While they are generally a force for good, Shapiro pushed for vaccines (since recanted), is a Ukraine war hawk, and was insanely anti-Trump. Some of their positions just don't square with their generally conservative stance. Their books aren't public, we have no idea if someone else is pulling the strings.

Brietbart was bankrolled by Rebekah Mercer, a wealthy heiress who runs the Mercer foundation. Even the Federalist, which I love reading and agree with 95+% of the time, has secret financial backers. Sean Davis has said it's secret to protect them from left-wing harassment, which makes sense. But we don't know if that's the only reason, co-founder Ben Domenich is married to Megan McCain FWIW.

The point of all this is that this "news grant" type stuff isn't limited to the left and we all need to be very careful regarding what we take as truth. In my experience when an organization starts pushing a viewpoint counter to expectations, there is money behind it. National Review started toadying for Big Tech under supposed "free market" principles, it was only afterwards we found out they were receiving grants from Google.

Here is a very deep dive into SBF and FTX. Although I can understand about only 2/3 of it, as there is a lot of cryptocurrency talk and game theory jabber and other vocabulary that I don’t understand or care to try to understand right now.

According to Matthew Crawford, who has some personal knowledge of the educational credentials of SBF and his entourage, neither SBF nor many of his pals are as dumb as they purport themselves to be.

And FTX is a very purposeful tool in the quest for one unifying government based on coercion and force.

The news about the Ethical Skeptic is so welcome ....... maybe we can turn back the clock on vaccines and vaccine injuries ...... and many more treatable health issues whose solutions have been suppressed. Dr. Judy Mikovits says in her books that she has physical evidence that the cell lines used in vaccine production are contaminated with retroviruses that are causing significant health issues across the population for decades .... as a 20 year ? veteran of the federal government's National Cancer Institute in Frederick, Maryland working back to the 1980s with Fauci, we must at least consider what these people are saying....... compare that to Dr. Thomas Levy who has books written about the high dose vitamin c ..... search on vaccines and vitamin c ..... all of the information that could be used to resolve vaccine injuries ......... compare that to Dr. Robert Cathcart's (passed away in 2007 or 2008 I believe) treatment of 25,000 patients with high dose vitamin c and his assertion that no virus can withstand a high enough dose of vitamin c given in divided doses across a day .............. and we are on the verge of a huge huge huge medical breakthrough .............. high doses of vitamin c ..... intravenous vitamin c ......... liposomal vitamin c ..... orthomolecular.org select "Library", select News Releases" has so much information on this and includes orthomolecular societies from all over the world ..... higher blood levels of vitamin d ........... Dr. Michael Holick a 40 year pioneer on vitamin d ......... his book "The Vitamin D Solution" published in 2010 ... page 244-245 lists the illness and disease that would be eliminated by higher blood levels of vitamin d across the population .... the pharmaceutical industry knows this because they fought the federal government's attempts to raise the recommended daily requirement of vitmain d around I believe 2018 with a huge disinformation campaign .... http://www.orthomolecular.org/resources/omns/v14n22.shtml ...... even add ivermectin to this mix (Dr. Hulda Clark, died in 2008 I believe ... her books on parasites and toxins being the source of so much illness and disease) .................... even just these 3 topics..... can eliminate so much illness................. and there are more .... niacin and kidney disease resolving stage 1 and stage 2, suramin and autism, low dose naltrexone and AIDS and heroin addiction Dr. Bernard Bihari died in 2010 ........ and there is something out there about Alzheimer's ..... .. just the Math+ protocol / Dr. Paul Marik/FLCCC.net for critically ill patients with sepsis which kills apparent 100,000 - 200,000 Americans every year (Math+ is intravenous vitamin c with a few other items and used in 10% of U.S. hospitals? a $40 treatment?) .................................. Even a regular person like myself .... can understand that there is a whole new world out there in medical solutions that will save my health, save my life sometimes, save the lives of my friends and family when I can convince them, and save myself a lot of money. Thanksgiving 2022 .... Thanks be to God for His wonderful gifts. Like Dr. Paul Marik said in the December 5 I believe it was, 2020 Houston news conference about ivermectin "it is a gift". May God give us the gift of truth by the end of this year .... so that 2023 can be the Year of Great Health. I will dedicate the year to Brandy Vaughn of learntherisk.org . The heroes in our midst who dedicate their lives for the betterment of all of the rest of us ..... I thank God for you and ask Him to bless and protect you and yours in many great ways. Coffee and Covid you are also one of these people. Thank you!

Here is an article blaming adverse effects on the stress of getting injected. It’s not the article I saw elsewhere earlier today… I will see if I can find that too.

Is it possible that this could be helpful to those whose immune systems have been battered by a vaccine(s)? copied from link................. https://todayspractitioner.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Bernard-Bihari-MD-Low-dose-Naltrexone-for-Normalizing-Immune-System-Function-athm_19_2_bihari_56_65.pdf "Bernard Bihari, MD: Low-dose Naltrexone for

Normalizing Immune System Function

CONVERSATIONS

Bernard Bihari, MD, (1931-2010) was the discoverer of the

clinical effects of low-dose naltrexone (LDN) in humans. In his

groundbreaking clinical trial of patients with HIV/AIDS at

Downstate Medical Center in 1985-86, Dr Bihari discovered

the significant effectiveness of low-dose naltrexone in protecting the battered immune systems of those who were infected.

With that knowledge, he entered private practice in an attempt

to counter the then untreatable disease. As Dr Bihari explains

below, the immune-system normalizing effect of the drug

application he discovered applies to a wide range of autoimmune disorders.

This interview was provided by Dr Bihari’s widow, from a

videotape discovered after his death. The interview was transcribed and curated by Julia Schopick, author of Honest

Medicine (http://www.honestmedicine.com) and champion of

effective, cost-efficient treatments that are neglected by current

practice. (Altern Ther Health Med. 2013;19(2):56-65.)"

The following fundamental flaws in mRNA vaccine technology also seem worthy of consideration in that they argue against the use of any mRNA pseudo-vaccines. Dr Bhakdi MD overviews these flaws in this excerpt from CHD TV 2022.10.21 -- (00:45-29:00) ( https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/shows/friday-roundtable/worrying-developments-with-michael-palmer-m-d-sucharit-bhadki-m-d/ ) – which seems to explain many of the observed serious adverse effects of mRNA shots for covid.

My non-expert takeaway is that flaws exist, which should ban the use of all mRNA pseudo-vaccines, and these are: once mRNA (in shot) enters a cell it will cause cell to make foreign, non-self proteins, that in turn set up such infected cells for violent death (high inflammation) via β€œcomplement” (killer system #2) triggered by antibodies made by B-cells activated by T-cells (killer system #1) recognition of non-self protein fragments on infected cell surfaces.

The Republican Party is not positioning to win the 2024 election.

The people in control of Republican Club do not care who is in the White House, that is a secondary objective. What they care about right now is controlling the Republican corporation and stopping the hostile takeover.

Every single Republican presidential candidate for 2024, sans Trump, will be inserted into the race to help the Republican corporation in this battle. When you see them enter, instead of asking, β€˜how can they winβ€˜, ask yourself what is their mission on behalf of the Club priority?

The SEC, like most of the DC located 3 letter acronym bureaus is too big over funded.

"You have to hand it to Science."

More like "You have to hand it to Sienceβ„’."

Science is what us Normals do with data pulled from real-life inquiry. It's the basis for rational decision-making.

Sienceβ„’...is what Fauci and his ilk do.

(As an aside and because sometimes text is hard to transmit sarcasm, Sienceβ„’ is not actually trademarked...it's satire.)
