The continuing relevance of the pandemic, and how to fix government; fabulous Ninth Circuit mandates decision; and an internet troll with alleged jury knowledge blows up the Internet.
Now, someone with real balls, needs to argue that the rest of the CDC childhood schedule vaccines āprotecting othersā needs to be cast into doubt, as the compelling evidence points to nutrition, hygiene, and sanitation.
Oh, the science is conflicted? Great. So thereās doubt. Letās start prying at the cracks.
Begging as a mother on behalf of all rational parents everywhere.
What will you/we learn in the quick 87 pages (all reference sources are also included)? True 'placebos' have never been run on ANY vaccines.
Pharma knows this and has gone to great lengths to prevent them from ever happening (I suspect they've done the studies and know, and therefore don't want the unwanted truth to come out).
Let me know if you have any questions as this is an area where I have completed coursework to better understand the lunacy of this entire Mafioso business.
I learned about Dr. Mercola while walking my little rescue Maltese in a local park back in 2013 (from a fellow dog walker whose dog's issues were helped by the holistic veterinarian, Dr. Becker, who partners with Dr. Mercola - and have followed his essays and use his supplements as the Spirit leads me to do so. Good man!!
Walking...I just checked Dr. Karen Becker's website and she does not post her "essays" on her website - I signed up to receive her newsletters once again (I had unsubscribed a few years ago because I didn't have the time to read them anymore). I imagine if you contacted her by e-mail she would answer any and all questions you have--she's that kind of "mensch"!! Here's a link to her website anyway: https://drkarenbecker.com/dvm/
Dr. Mercola was my "go-to" for years but lately something seems to be amiss with him. I don't know what is going on but I am a bit skeptical when I hear things like he is consulting with a psychic. I do see a difference in him. I just pray that he is ok.
Kathryn I agree that something is amiss with Dr. Mercola. I am more and more uncomfortable reading the content of his daily articles. He has changed his stance on so many of his previous held health positions. It just unsettles me.
I love Dr. Mercola and am so grateful for all I have learned from him. A few days ago I watched this video related to what has been going on with Dr. Mercola. I recommend watching it rather than reading it to gain a better understanding. Click on the arrow to listen to Barbara Fisher talk. So heartbreaking! I really hope he will be ok.
I agree with you CitizenA. I started noticing a difference in his health positions since last winter, and not just one or two, but so many that I found it unsettling, and a red flag was raised.
I haven't seen anything glaringly different in Dr. Mercola's newsletters that I receive - mostly they come through bi-weekly or monthly. What is 'changing' in his advice because I haven't noticed it.
Heās changed his stance on carbs and keto diets, but explains very well his reasons for the change. I happen to agree with his new approach to that area. I still glean good information from his articles, and also from the commenters on his articles. I take what is useful to me, and ignore anything that doesnāt apply. I think thatās all we can do, no matter the source. If thereās one thing weāve learned over the last 4 years, itās be skeptical of everything and do your own research!
I just finished reading today's C & C. Jeff's notes from his presentation at the NACL would be a "useful" sermon at any congregation where those in attendance are searching for an explanation of what happened and is happening to us.
SPOT ON - would definitely be better than some of the 'lightweight' sermons being preached in so-called "Christian" congregations - would give the attendees some real "meat" to chew on. Time to put away the "pablum" and get on to the REAL menu!!
I'm not a close follower of his, but I suggest that anything he recommends that came as a result of consulting with his psychic should be avoided at all costs.
Yep, although I have never really cared for Mercola, I did realize that he was right a good bit of the time. But lately....I'm personally not going down that path and hope he comes to his senses soon....
next step: there are no virus* correction: no virus has ever actually been shown to exist. they appear to have always been the fraud invention that opens the door to vaccines.
I may be a lone dissenter here, but when you say viruses donāt exist to people, thatās when you start to lose them and their eyes begin to glaze over and they begin to think crazy conspiracy theorist and they tune out anything else you have to say and disregard anything you had said before. If there are no viruses (and I really donāt care if you call them viruses or something else) then explain what causes measles, mumps, hepatitis, Ebola, Covid, etc
If you tell me Covid wasnāt real, the many people who experienced it firsthand would beg to differ. I have never been as sick as I was with Covid (and no I did not get the shot) and it was totally different than any typical flu Iāve had before. I lost my sense of smell and it took over a year for it to come back. Iām not saying it rose to the level of a pandemic, but there was something different going around, and I donāt think it necessarily helps the ācauseā to say viruses donāt exist until youāre prepared to offer an alternative to what has made someone sick other than āoh, itās the 5Gā, or āitās just your body detoxingā, or āits really past traumas just coming to the surfaceā.
To be clear though, I am against any and all vaccines and pretty much every other pharmaceutical product and allopathic medicine in general, because I donāt think āscientistsā are anywhere close to smart enough to have a detailed understanding of how the human body actually functions, to be able to develop something that will not have unintended and potentially devastating consequences.
I feel like I could have written this word for word. I'm ready to entertain the thought that there are no "viruses" but until a reasonable explanation is provided for how illnesses clearly move from person to person, I feel like it's just a semantics game. Our family stopped ALL shots over 12 years ago. We are all very healthy and rarely get sick - but with 4 kids, usually when one catches something, it does move through at least one or 2 other kids. We never tested for Covid, but we most definitely had it at least twice. The first time, I had to use literally everything in my holistic toolbox to get well and I remember thinking that any other person would likely have needed significant allopathic treatment to overcome it. Our family actually traveled full-time during the majority of the pandemic - and ironically, only had "covid" while visiting our homebase. It was quite interesting to live a life of such freedom while watching so many people succumb to the narrative and live life trapped in their homes.
I wrote this a few weeks back. I made it as short and concise as possible about what viruses are, and what they are not.
It's the most reasonable explanation I found about ten years ago and I've been using the knowledge to prove it to myself and my family ever since. It's solid.
Amazingly, all other causes of disease magically disappeared in 2020. Everything was Covid, Covid, Covid no matter what one caught or got. Ask anyone what they got and it was Covid and nothing else. This held true whether it was death certificates, hospital admissions, visits to local masked man pretending to be a doctor. So, to sum. Some people got real sick from something. Some did not. The people who got real sick from something called it 'covid' ... and the people who got sick with other things also called it 'covid'. So everyone got sick with 'covid' whether they did or not. Like Shakespeare said, "What is there in a name?"
By the way Russia, Russia, Russia is not Russia ... nor the Ukraine for that matter. Russia, Russia, Russia might be code for the United States, and only by some stretch of the imagination. But I would not know because I like mostly in the real world, even though this causes problems for me.
Yup. Even the guy who crashed his motorcycle in the LA Freeway and died because of his injuries didn't really sustain any life-thretening ijuries. He died of the covid thing, and the hospital, as a Big Prize" for ticking the correct box on the "cause of deah" form, got a bonus if $40K.
See how that works? Dangle a bit of gelt in front of an hospital administrator/money-man, and there IS no other cause of death than the Woo Flew.
How easily people do themselves in by uncritically consenting to employ the terms their masters serve up them, and thereby unwitting consent towards furthering their own self-destruction. Covid, Long Covid ... empty of content.
I am glad to see that this bothers a few other people as much as it does me.
Karen, nancylee is correct that pathogenic viruses don't exist, though the way I prefer to say it is "those particles scientists call viruses have never been proven to do what they claim." The basic truth to understand is that Terrain Theory is backed up by science; Germ Theory is not. Here is an excellent video discussing this topic:
Each of the diseases you listed do have other possible causes, all of the causes falling into one of two categories--toxins (bad food, water, air, EMF, etc.) or lack of something (insufficient vitamins, minerals, proteins, sunshine, contact with the earth, contact with other humans, etc.).
There are many great books that discuss the above in detail. I recommend Can You Catch a Cold? (Roytas), Virus Mania (Kohnlein, et. al.), The Contagion Myth (Cowan, Morrell), or The Invisible Rainbow (Firstenburg).
I donāt agree or disagree with your statement or the linked videos assertion that viruses donāt exist. I simply donāt know as I am no expert. As I said in my original comment, I donāt necessarily care what it is called, terrain theory, germ theory, etc. My main concern is what I experience and observe firsthand. I donāt believe even our most intelligent scientists and doctors, including the ones you mentioned, have a clear and complete understanding of the complex and wonderful design that is our bodies and their interactions with the world around us. Only our Creator has that understanding and we are much better off to look to nature, which He provided for things to cure what ails us.
I believe this is backed up by the fact that I canāt think of a single disease that allopathic medicine has cured (but maybe I have missed something). Pretty much without exception, pharmaceuticals have unintended and undesirable consequences, at least in some people. Therefore, I think it is in everybodyās best interests to not only question the efficacy, or lack thereof, of any and all vaccines but also any and all pharmaceuticals (but no, I am not recommending someone discontinue all their prescriptions, this post does not constitute medical advice lest someone report me to the FDA).
When someone just throws out āviruses donāt existā it goes against many peopleās experiences and observations and it doesnāt move the needle in the vaccine or Covid debate, because many people experienced something that caused them or loved ones to be ill or possibly die. Call it Covid or call it the normal seasonal flu or something else but it was something. Iām not buying that it was 5G, an individualās past or current traumas, stress, our psyche, or just our bodies normal detoxification process, all of which I have seen posited.
In my opinion, the debate should be, assuming for arguments sake that Covid exists, did the government have the authority to suspend our God given rights that are delineated in the Constitution and to require people be masked, distanced and injected with unsafe, ineffective substances? For me that would be a hard no.
I tried to like your post but the ālikeā button does not seem to work.
No Covid vax in our home
My daughter came home sick w Covid. Next day I had it. Two days later other two kids sick. I was really sick, I took a week off work, first sick time for me in over ten years. It was three more weeks before I was really able to function well.
Thatās a great question, although influenza is from a virus also. I also reject the validity of those tests in that they cycled them so many times that they certainly got a huge number of false positives. But if thatās true they shouldnāt miss an actual positive case. Iām not defending the Covid test they were designed to make everything seem worse for the masses and they worked very well for that.
Iām not a flu expert, I think Iāve had it a couple of times in my life, three maybe four times, Iām 61 years old.
When I think of flu I think of headache, fever, throwing up, bodyaches. What I had was much worse than that. I did not take a test and neither did my other two kids, my first kid that came home with it was required by their employer to take a test and they came out positive and they in fact had the same common symptoms, that is loss of taste, loss of smell etc. I did not lose taste or smell but suddenly cold water or any cold beverage tasted horrible to me. I could only drink room temperature water. That lasted for well over a year. I live in Florida I work outside all day every day and I could not have ice water because I simply couldnāt drink it - it tasted so bad to me. I also had other strange symptoms, I felt like there was twisted reinforcement bar writhing in my gut. It hurt so bad Iāve never experienced anything like that before, but the worst symptoms of all was exhaustion. It was awful that I felt better physically (after Hydroxychloroquine ) but I couldnāt hardly get out of a chair. I felt fine no fever no nothing but I couldnāt do anything, fortunately that in my job Iām the boss and I was able to assign work and just lay low because otherwise I wouldāve had to take two or three additional weeks off because I just really couldnāt do anything besides show up.
I lost my sense of smell without getting Covid or being sick from anything. I also lost it every time I've had a cold. I don't think it's related to Covid (if there even is a covid). I just think we were poisoned. That would explain a nursing home out in the middle of nowhere getting it before anyone else. Say what? How did old people who never go anywhere, without visitors, get decimated by "covid"? Anecdotal "evidence" by people who say "I was never so sick... " well every year, someone has a bad flu that they were 'never so sick' from. This has happened anecdotally to me for 3 years running. Not that I was sick but that someone I worked with, am related to, or friends with got the flu and "it was the worst flu I ever had." I am guessing that that's how our memory works - we don't remember how bad the last flu was when we get the next one. The present one is always going to be the worst, esp. the older we get.
A 'virus' is a biological program designed to go in to action the very second a psychological problem is perceived. Say you were told you had cancer and had six months to live - Heaven forbid. That shock is registered in the brain IMMEDIATELY. The psyche is not biological, but the brain is. The brain's shock is relayed to a specific organ. For a death fright one will develop lung cancer (so-called). For a separation shock one will develop a skin cancer. There is a biological law involved.
The shock can be seen on a CT scan as a ring.
I wrote about it once if you have the inclination.
Daniel, I don't click on links that I don't know what they are. If you give a brief description of what the video is, you might get more people who will watch it.
Okay, no problem. The video is of David Martin, the founding chairman of M Cam asset management company (and American patent auditing expert), at an International Covid Summit organized by the European Parliament in Brussels in May 2023, In it he states that the US was responsible for the making of both coronaviruses causing the outbreaks of severe acute respiratory syndrome - or SARS - in 2003 and the Covid-19 pandemic in the past three years., He discusses, with clarity, how the corona "virus" is a man made "virus" that is the result of manipulation begun in 1965. He provides the "receipts" and many more facts of which everyone should be aware. It was simply 7 stunning minutes of information to me. Its a crime against humanity for which there must be full accountability.
He was trying to find at least on Stateās Attorney General back in Jan. 2021, on that infamous day, when he stood in front of the Senate building and read a list of statutes broken by the manufacture of the jab. I am surprised he hasnāt been derailed like Reiner Fuellmich in Germany.
I think everyone can now understand why this information has been censored and hidden from us. At least it was hidden from me since I just found out about it this week and wanted to share it as widely as I possibly could. Some Attorney General somewhere (Paxton in TX?) needs to conduct a full investigation, empanel a grand jury and start bringing indictments. Our federal government, giant pharmaceuticals, media, etc., are all in cover up mode.
so whether naturally occuring or man made from the start, a virus IS a thing.
No question the virus responsible for the covid madness IS a real thing. I've seen a number of solid pieces of evidence detailing HOW that particular corona virus was adopted as the starting point then manipulated/modified to become what is now called SARS CoV 2, after spending illions of OUR tx dollars to develop the final product. I've seen solid evidence tracing the origins and pathway tp the current version of it.
Tio, I'm surprised that is your takeaway. The far bigger issue is that they conducted the pLandemic against the people of the world - truly, a crime against humanity - and so far have completely gotten away with it. And not only that but in the US, they also changed the way we vote, without our consent, so they could manipulate and steal the election, not against Trump but against the people. And now we have an un-elected puppet and an administration doing immense damage, not only to the USA but the world - and so far have completely gotten away with it.
Danil your pons are valid and yet do not take away anything from MY point. I have read extensively on how the virus was designed and released (there are three plausible pathways to have ben followed from the point the virus itself was gain-of-function modified from its natural state, it is highly probable a combination was used to get it "out there"). Sraightaway our gummit's "response" was so obviously preplanned, the narrative already fully formed, the dithering by those "responsible" to act in such "situations". the lawfare that brought in mandates, crazy "prescriptions", the banning of anything even remotely a potential cure or adjuvant. ALL the pieces "happened" to be ready and primed within days of it being "found" in public.
HAD the Nürenberg Convention and tue US lw arisong directly from that been cited and ENFORCED nationwide, NO ONE could have been forced to slap oin those wretched mug nappies.. those devices are a "medical device" and canno be forced upon anyone. Hydrochloroquine is known to be VERY helpful in treatment of similar viral diseases. It was denied general use, again contra Nürenberg I have studied the precise mechanism by which ths drug prohibits the proliferation/replication of viral particles in humans. Simpel direct, known. But, contra Nürenberg, denied by our gummit poohbahs, illegally. Two long time dear friends of mine were in Nicaragua durong the nonsense, both got the covid. They were brought to "good" hosptials hich applied the US mandated "cure: go home, rest, take lots of fluids, and come back if it gets worse. They did it did they did...within a few days they put both of them on ventilators, they were both gone Home within a week. What made me FURIOUS is that any ten year old kid in Nicaragua can take the equivalent of about three dollars fifty, walk into any farmÔcia and in a coule of minutes walked back out with large supply of HCQ, gone back to their houses and cured them.
Enacting mandates conditioning your employment, membership in an organisation or school, ability to freely move about s you would upon taking that UNTESTED unproven experimental injection is directly counter to US law based upon the Nürenberg Protocls.
That ONE THING could have been deployed and used to end the entire madness, all mandates, experimental shots, prohibitions against proven medical treatments, and ended the pandemic within a few weeks.
NOW do you understand a bit more from where I am coming on "Nürenberg? The LAW is there, it ws scrupulously IGNORED, locked up and not mentioned in the general discussion regarding this manufactured scam.
My apologies, I was VERY pressed for time this morning and had not expected to find THIS topic addressed today. Hope I've been able to 'splain muh sewf a bit better.
This might not 'directly' answer your question 'do viruses actually exist', but this article tackles the timelines of what was "Covid" and was it in fact a virus, or an airborne toxin emitted around the world simultaneously (think chem-trails as most are sprayed around humans, not out at sea where they'd have a better chance of really deflecting the sun's rays), but take a gander and let us know your thoughts. Complicated, I know.
I agree -The virus or whatever covid is was made in a lab and is a bioweapon. The doctors treating the spike damaged know this. Others who deny itās an issue just donāt know.
I totally agree with your consensus on "spouting off" to those who are SO ASLEEP they may never awaken. Perhaps couching the "virus discussion" with this phrase, "since science ALWAYS QUESTIONS medical discoveries, there have been NEW evidence to dispute the 'theory of viruses' their origin and modalities" or something on that order. THEN...you can share what you have learned from the TRUTH-SEEKING scientists whose work you trust.
I totally agree with everything you say. I get a little tired of people saying covid was/is just a cold because I've never had a "cold" like that before. No taste/smell and the fatigue was off the charts. I could barely make it across the room. I've had walking pneumonia before and I thought that was hell. It was a walk in the park compared to covid. So it drives me nuts when people claim that there are no viruses. Then tell us exactly what we had. Also I'm not jabbed.
Exactly, I had the same experience. It took me a month to feel like myself again and that only happened after I had several Vitamin C infusions. Even then, I couldnāt smell anything for a year and a half., hardly typical cold or flu symptoms.
I was lucky the smell and taste came back after a couple of months but the fatigue took weeks. I also developed a sinus infection probably from the nasty mask wearing. I've never had any kind of infection requiring antibiotic in my life and I'm 63. It all basically felt like all out war on my body. I thank God I've kept in shape with a lot of exercise and a low carb diet. I'm glad you are better. š
You are not the lone dissenter, that is for certain.
Just because the official story regarding vaxxes is a lie doesn't mean every crackpot youtube "influencer" theory is true. Most of these people are either nuts, pushing crazy schemes for clicks, or chaos agents. Don't discount the last one as Pharma loves the "no virus" people as they make all pharma critics look nutty by association. It's similar to how the Flat Earth people are used to ridicule those who question the moon landings (based on solid evidence).
Obviously aspects of the terrain theory are true, people in poor health get sick easier. But that can be true and viruses still real, they aren't mutually exclusive. But these people play on humans inability to think in nuanced terms and propensity to swing to one extreme or the other. Hence they fall for every pied piper that comes down the pike.
same here. I will watch the video but think it is a bridge too far for most, certainly me as I was SICKER WITH COVID (no jab) than ever before in my life.
Interestingly, I watched a video with Dr. Mercola and Suzanne Humphries. They both seem to believe in viruses because of childhood diseases like measles and chickenpox. These are contagious and then people donāt get them again. Most develop immunity. Unlike colds & flu that we get multiple times and are a lot of times very similar.
I donāt fully believe colds and flus are contagious as most times in our household we donāt catch or pass on one anotherās illness. I have slept in the same bed with my husband for 39 years through all our colds & few flus and we never passed one to the other.
Correct! The link you sent is good; Sam and Mark are warriors, as are Dr. Cowan, Dr. Kaufman, Stefan Lanka, and others. The science is on the side of terrain theory, not germ theory. Here's another excellent video that comprehensively explains the failures of germ theory:
Thank for this podcast link. Heads up to others⦠you have to listen to an intro thatās about 20-30 min. before the interview with Mark Bailey. The sound clip with Del Bigtree is one I have not heard before. He thinks the no virus theory should be ignored for now. He thinks that heāll get more open listeners in government if the focus is vaccines are harmfull.
Right there with you. Like Dr. Peter McCullough said, 'vaccines are not the free lunch we thought they were. ' How succinct and accurate that has turned out to be. I think the long slow slide for the vaccine manufacturers has begun.
78 or 79 doses of assorted āvaccinesā by the time theyāre 18! In the 60ās it was 3, in the 80ās something like 13. And we wonder why there is such a surge in autism, ADHD, autoimmune disease, etc! People can argue all day long about whether vaccines cause autism, for instance, but for the love of God, who in their right mind cannot see that pumping kids with 79 doses of ANYTHING is going to cause problems!
Allergies too RL. The 4 Aās- Allergies, asthma, Autism and ADHD are all caused by vaccination per the Vaxxed vs Unvaxxed research and book by Dr. Brian Hooker and Dr. Paul Thomas.
Does that mean you are in favor of the US ruling elites' endless wars around the world? The deep state and social media's surveillance and censorship regimes? Serious questions.
Trump was so against endless wars that he didn't start any, the first President in a long time, for that, and of course he really doesn't like the deep state or surveillance and censorship, being their chief target for some time now.
Sometimes, in warfare, it's best not to tell your enemy what you plan, especially if they still have you tangled in the legal system with a possible (functionally) life sentence.
Fair enough. But with his participation with the swamp (in direct contradiction to his campaign promises) I'm not going to assume he's learned a damn thing.
Bottom line, he's either stupid and inept, or he's in bed with the deep state.
I believe the latter is more likely, though it could be some of both.
Not deep state for sure, or it wouldnāt be so committed to destroying him. Narcissistic to a fault, yes, but he truly cares about šŗšø. Not a unquestioning fan, but sane folks have no choice in 2024. RFK canāt win in our electoral system, and if it goes to the House, who do you think theyāll choose, regardless of who has the majority. Trust me, it wouldnāt be a R or RFK.
He was against vaccines. He has changed his feelings/thoughts on them. Sorry unable to post where I read this but it woke me up. I felt at the time reasonable report, perhaps need to search. It was in his own words.
I will never support the evil state of Israel, created by the Illuminati in Britain early 1900's Balfour Declaration to set Jews (not even jews, but Ashkenazi descended from KHAZARIANS- some of our REAL enemies) against Arabs (the REAL semites, btw.
its time to stop funding the MASS SLAUGHTER IN ISRAEL. cut them OFF.
This has nothing to do with money. Given the backstabbing the United States has done to Israel throughout the decades, I would be happy to see all ties cut between our two countries. And I believe it is the United States that would suffer most for the loss of that alliance.
The Jewish people are the most brilliant and industrious in the world. Do you really not believe the U.S. has benefited from an alliance with that brain trust? A true financial reckoning of the relationship would look very different from what youāve been led to believe.
Check out pulseofisrael.com. The Israeli people want answers from their military and intelligence leaders about their cooperation with the U.S. in attempts to harm, marginalize and maybe exterminate Israel. They realize the war they are fighting is both external and internal. They are learning to trust God.
For the first time, I saw expressed suspicion about the role of Nixon and Kissinger in the Yom Kippur War in 1973. The sabotage has been ongoing for a very long time.
Thereās far more to the story than meets the eye. Donāt accept the simplistic, slogan laden, terrorists supporting version.
I have many reservations about RFK - I've never voted for a non-GOP candidate) but he's literally the only one raising questions about Fauci and the link between autism and other diseases and the childhood vax schedule.
Unlike Trumpers, I don't just assume a candidate believes what he says.
his wife is a Hollywood Zionist. not much better than Jared Kushner's perverted stance, selling gazan beach real estate while children are still Bleeding on it.
RFK Jr is also against pesticide poisoning of our croplands, although (being a lifelong Democrat) he plans to use the police powers of big government to reach his goals:
And Trump is serial cheat who has refused to pay 100's of contractors he hired.
He's also a liar (remember "lock her up?)
He's also so incredibly incompetent that he hired Epstein associate Barr, who contemptuously ignored Trump and ran out the clock without doing a damn thing.
He also, of course, hired hundreds of deep state people from the swamp, and gave them power to run his administration.
He was so inept that he couldn't keep his promises to build the wall.
I could go on ad nauseum, but I'll just suffice it to say, we've all been voting GOP for decades. We've listened to GOP leaders (eg. Trey Gowdy, Lindsey Graham, and hundreds of others) promise to right the constitutional ship, cut spending, reduce the deficit, close the borders, etc. and not a DAMN bit of progress has been made.
At some point, you have to at least wonder "Are we being played?"
You know, folks keep claiming that he didnāt pay employees. Any evidence Iāve found was only when the work was so substandard as to require extensive revision.
As for ālock her up,ā not pursuing that was the right decision. We DO NOT need more politicization and divisiveness. Does t make him a liar.
Does he say things at rallyās to play to his base? Surely. They all do.
Did you even bother to look at the resistance he faced at every single turn??? Yet he accomplished much; itās there if you care to look. And I can personally vouch for many miles of new border wall in CA and AZ.
It was JB who immediately cancelled it, at terrific losses to taxpayers, and left huge piles of pre-constructed segments left to rust near Florence, AZ. Photos at your request.
If you think RFK, as much as there is to like about him, has a chance in heck to win this election, I implore you to review carefully the different States and Federal rules of the electoral college. And maybe review Perot - not a single electoral vote; not a single State.
Hahaha! Iām not even a big fan. Please post some reputable sources for your claims. Youāve gotta agree that weāve endured more than our share of media and social media falsehoods recently.
Who are you looking for as a savior to put into in the WH? I'm not looking for anyone to put there myself.
It's scary how so many people are looking to just one man to pin all their hopes on. The USA was meant to be a constitutional republic. But many want it to become a monarchy. They want a king who will lead them into battle because they no longer view God as sufficient.
Are you voting for Caligula? Well then you must be a Nero supporter. Neither. I don't want ANY emperor. The executive branch of our federal government was never meant to be a throne. And I have read comments by MAGA zealots talking about setting up Trump's sons as potential heirs after he dies.
Head of HHS? Sec of State? Sad that he cannot possibly get to 270 electoral votes. Impossible. Some States donāt have to honor their voterās preferences, but thatās a fairly minor issue. I donāt trust the House to decide the election, so please pick a side for 2024 and donāt send us down that rabbit hole.
Ya, especially my former compatriots north of the border. They are devoid of questionable thoughts. Itās as if the past four years hadnāt happened.
Are your grandkids homeschooled? I imagine they are, because you have to be seriously vaxxed up according to the Childhood Vaccine Schedule, to attend public (an a number of private schools) in most states. Very few states allow for any āexemptionsā to āthe scheduleāā¦California NO exemptions! The majority of people who choose to not vaccinate their kids who live in CA, have been into homeschooling them for many years.
Actually, most states have some form of exemption. I think there are only 5 that have no exemption or only medical exemptions. The other 45 states have at least a religious exemption and a portion of those have a philosophical exemption as well. The schools will not offer up this information, you have to find it yourself.
The CDC knows vaccines cause autism. Itās been 10 years and Congress still hasnāt subpoenaed the CDC Whistleblower Dr. William Thompson. Pharmawhore Dr. Julie Gerberding became the President of the Vaccine Division at Merck for shredding the documents of the study the CDC performed, which showed a 260% increase in black male babies regressing into autism after the MMR. So, hereās a perfect example of a lack of transparency.
When I worked with autistic children in the public school system (retired in 2018), the vast majority were black males. Females of all races were probably less than 10% of that population.
So it would seem that black male children were most vulnerable. And for some reason, female children were a lot less affected.
It was discovered that black females were more susceptible to adverse reactions to the DPT vaccine by Dr. Aaby in Guinea -Bissau when he was able to look at his records comparing vaccinated to unvaccinated. The Highwire reported this sometime in 2019.
Brian Hooker MD wrote a book called "Evidence of Harm" that discussed studies that showed that young black males were much more likely to develop issues from the MMR if they had it before the age of 3 than any other demographic. The CDC made him throw that data away.
The "vaccines" have nothing to do with health, they make us un-healthy. But they do make the giant pharmaceuticals and their captured "government regulators" immensely wealthy, with our tax dollars and those of virtually every country on the planet. Human cockroach mr fauci and his underlings in NIAID, and others in NIH, CDC, etc made hundreds of millions of dollars in royalty payments. WTF??? How are civil servants allowed to make millions in royalties off the pharmaceutical companies they are supposed to regulate to protect us?
I was born in 1960. 1971 is the year they lined us up at school and gave us a shot. I donāt know what it was. I wonder if it was a measles booster because soon after I had my left eardrum burst and I failed all the school hearing tests. All the little kids getting tubes in their ears is tied to the MMR.
Born 1947. Ditto those two. Being a Pittsburgher, I was in one of the early trial groups for Jonas Salk's jab. Got it in a building which is now part of the UPMC complex. I bear a faint ring-shaped scar on my upper arm to this day from the Salk vax.
I like that āvaccine cultā is a good name and or āvaccine worshippersā for sure. They sure love throwing around the label of āanti-vax ā if you donāt believe in jabbing.
This can only be a Vaccine Cult, a form of worship where medical self-flagellation is obligatory. Some people are attracted to this cult because they like metal objects hanging on their bodies because it gives them a warm fuzzy feeling, something like light up Christmas trees fulsome with sparkling Christmas balls.
You may think my scribbling here a tad bizarre. But I assure you! It is not ... and no more bizarre than the people who saw Mr. Covid lurking around every corner, twist and turn of their pathways. Ah yes! The Ubiquitous Mr. Covid. He is Everywhere.
I would opt not to have them, sadly. I have 2 grown children and neither want to have children until they see whatās going to happen. This is very common amongst their friends. Just another reason we are depopulating.
My children were born in 1985 & 1990 - vaccines were a normal thing at that time, we didn't give it a second thought as their checkups consisted of the Dr. explaining what the vaccines were for. Neither of my kids were harmed. Fast forward to 2007 today, as a grandma of 8, out of them all 4 girls and 4 boys only 2 of them appear to have some difficulties. I firmly believe it was the vaccines that caused it.
*DURING* Psyop-19 [NOT to imply that said operation is over] it went from 72 doses to 90 (***NINETY!!***) This has gone way past 'obscene,' past 'criminal,' past 'tragic,' and reached 'profoundly evil.'
My Mom is 96 and in great shape, and canāt even remember her last vaccine. She declines them all and has for decades. She was raised on a farm with almost all the familyās food produced by themselves. Somehow, with the medical indu$try being what it has become, and food being processed and even produce being lower in nutrients, I donāt think weāll be seeing as many people in the future who reach their 90s in good fettle.
Thereās a lot of wisdom and experience in an observant person whoās made it as far as their 90s!! My Mom said the covid vaccine felt āall wrongā to her and declined it, and she also said, āI donāt want the world to shut down for me.ā She saw right through the whole scam of coercing people to āprotect grandma.ā
This is probably part of the reason covid was created to target the āelderlyā. Not only are they deemed āuseless eatersā, they KNOW stuff. They know what itās like to live through the Great Depression, they know what fascism looks like, they know how to survive without the nanny state etcā¦
I was born in the early 50ās so had 3 growing upā¦until the age of 9, when my family moved to Libya. We were plied with multiple vaccines (typhoid, TB, Cholera, smallpox, and polio) as was everyone I knew overseas. Nonetheless, still WAY less than now, and we never knew a single kid who had a heart attack, a turbo cancer, had autism, ADHD, etc, etc, etc! Most in my generation, if asked, will say the same, those afflictions were just about unheard of!
Yes please. My teen had a well check this week and the doctor tried to convince me that she HAD to have 3 meningitis vaccines in order to go to college. Nope. Not doing that to her again. I pretty much lost it and she then led me to the option of exemptions.
Bingo!! Stop taking your children to āwell checksā. When you take your 7 year old car, to the Dealer for a certain mileage check, is there ever a time that you drive away without them telling you need a new something or something needs attention???
Do you go to a Lawyer for a check up to see if you need to file a lawsuit that you didnāt know about?
I worked in healthcare for over 20 years. "Well checks" are nothing more than a process to get you back into the clinic for a billable event. Pediatricians are notorious for this because of the fact the ages they treat donāt have chronic conditions like adults. Big Food and Big Pharma are doing all they can to change that, but it doesnāt happen overnight so "well checks" are needed to pay the bills.
Good point - I hadn't thought about the fact that pediatricians aren't dealing with the chronic conditions. Although, in recent years, there has certainly been an uptick in the four A's - Asthma, allergies, autoimmune diseases, and autism that should help their bottom line.
Iām liking so many in this article my finger is bleeding 𤣠I love you all and your critical thinking skills. God bless each one of you and keep speaking up. Donāt stop! Some say thereās a lot of talk but no action. But talking out loud about what-must-not-be-named IS taking action and brave at that during these times. We give each other courage so that when an opportunity (crossroad) to actually physically do something we are equipped with the necessary courage. So I Like. Like. Like!!
And Fred mine is that my ālikeā button is disabled (as it is for many of us that have complained of the same problem.) Beyond frustrating when I do not want to comment on EVERY post I like, but do want to add my approval by clicking the ālikeā button.
I wonder if anyone is working on this problem, or even knows it exists, or who can we even contact to fix it? I see this same complaint on OTHER SUBSTACKS besides C&C.
There are foolish people that do take older cars to the dealership for "wellness checks". An acquaintance asked for advice on this just the other day as he had taken the car to a dealership for an oil change (first mistake). He asked them to look it over and the came back with $10k in "recommended repairs". None of them were warranted except a minor coolant leak which they were overcharging by a factor of three to repair.
A concept with initial good intentions, preventative health care or preventative maintenance, has been completely corrupted by a unethical system to fool people into spending money on stuff they don't need. They use fear-mongering and the customers ignorance to pressure them. It amazes me that most people still can't see this and take this stuff seriously rather than laugh at these people and walk out.
I've never understood why people see their doctors for this weird thing called a "wellness check." If you are well, why would you go? And these days, even if I don't feel well, I don't go. š
I am 83 and we grew up in a time when kids didn't get rushed to the ER for every little thing. The only time I saw a doctor was for a Polio shot and once he came to the house when I had a bad case of measles. When we got cuts or scrapes, it was iodine and a bandaid. We weren't at all poor; rushing to doctors just wasn't done.
I only saw a doctor once in my life in my childhood: to get some necessary stitches on a cut. It never occurred to my mother to take me or my siblings to the doctor for normal, childhood illnesses. She certainly wouldnāt have taken us to a doctor for a āwellness checkā. She knew if we were well or not already.
My daughter does have chronic issues, which I 100% believe are from childhood vaccines. My functional doctor told me to play the game to get the insurance to get blood work done so we could keep an eye on her.
This reminds me of my mom's strategy for a pushy salesperson who wanted her to buy an extended warranty. She told him to that she had every confidence that the product was such good quality, an extended warranty wasnāt necessary. He didnāt know what to say back š
The irony of doing a hard sell job on a product only to turn around and claim that the product really is a piece of crap that you canāt expect to last, so you need to pay for an extended warranty!
Walmart checkout cash register prompt: "Would you like to buy an extended warranty on your new flat screen TV?" That would be the TV which will last for ten years of normal use.
Actually they even ask if you want to buy an extended warranty for that mechanical pencil you just bought or that SD card. 𤣠Itās for everything now. $15 toaster? Want a warranty? Um no thanks Iāll just buy another if it breaks š
As an old lady on Medicare, I have had several calls from my insurance provider to have them come and do a "home health visit", they'll give me a $15 bonus if I do it.
My thoughts since CV is, if they have to pay you for it, it's probably not in your best interest.
Medicaid does the same. They will pay you a bonus to have an annual dr visit. Bribery 101. If someone wanted to have an annual appointment, no bribe "bonus" needed. All bs.
Another cause of the increase in childhood diseases is the obsession with cleanliness and handwashing with antibiotic soaps. I am not advocating for filth, but when we kids played in the dirt during the 1950s we returned the next day for more of the same, still healthy and stronger. Our moms did not try to trap us in antiseptic bubble suits, which seems to be commonplace today.
In addition to yes playing outside all day and in the woods behind the house as a child, I am a lifelong nail biter (tried to quit but impossible) so why am I rarely if ever sick? I do wash my hands but you know those fingers are always in my mouth. PS. I hate those sanitizers and I never use those hand dryers in public restrooms.
Way back when āguardasilā first arrived, doc tried to get me to give ok to give to my daughter. I read the brochure & said no. Later in the week, a nurse from our state dept of health called me. āWhy not?ā she asked. I stated it was only tried on 12 girls! She admitted she wasnāt giving it to her girls either. About a decade later, when my daughter was going to doc by herself, they tried again. She asked, if itās only for ages 14-24, what happens if someone older takes it? The doc was stunned and let it drop. Our kids learn, even when we donāt realize it. Also, from their current commercial, I see they give it to both boys & girls, regardless of age.š¤¦āāļø
This makes me so mad Iām in tears. Iām sick. My son was talked into HPV vax when he went into the Dr unaccompanied by me. At 13-14. Thanks to Oregon law that said I was no longer needed and my kids could make their own medical decisions. 𤮠I would have NEVER let him do it. I was livid. Still am. Iām sick for Colton and his family.
So, at 13-14, the kid canāt purchase alcohol, canāt drive, canāt serve in the military, canāt work a job, and the parents are held accountable if the kid doesnāt attend school. BUT, the kid CAN make life altering medical decisions based on doctor recommendations supported by undisclosed, inaccurate and incomplete information. š³š¤
The kid probably thinks they are being treated like an adult being able to make their own medical decisions, but they are being treated like a baby by someone in authority saying, āHere take this itās good for you.ā
Perhaps kids should be taught that adults are seldom āgiven all the information,ā but must seek out full details, ask questions, to be able to make informed decisions. If someone is ālettingā the kid be an adult while handing the kid an already made decision, then the kid isnāt acting as an adult.
I was horrified to learn recently, that my now 32 year old daughter was enticed into receiving the Gardasil shot when in school, with me not knowing anything about it!
Some friends of mine told me their kids on high school teams were forced into it! They had a terrible reaction to the first shot & refused the remaining two. Sad.
A few select quotes from the medical community gleaned from that Reddit thread follow ..."I lean into this is the first vaccine that can porevent cancer" ... "vaccine paranoia" ... "I think [parents] see it as sexualizing children" ...
It is interesting but not surprising to learn that anyone who objects to The Allopathic Life (t.m.reg.) is sneered at and described as a fool.
It was considered by many to be the most dangerous shot until the Covid genetic injection came along. In Australia, the drug companies do not have immunity. I remember hearing RFK say that a lawyer could make a great living in Australia just by taking Gaurdisil cases, because the injuries were so devastating and easy to prove. The sad thing is that less women and girls are getting Pap smears, which easily detect any abnormal cells on the cervix. And of course, the shots interfere with the immune system comment making any kind of cancer more likely.
If a girl waits until marriage to have sex and her husband waited too, neither is at risk of any sexually transmitted disease, no pap smears or gardasil needed.
People these days seem to think having sex is an uncontrollable urge. Itās not. āMy body my choiceā begins before sexual intimacy occurs.
I hear you, but thatās not the way the world is these days. According to my younger friends, people donāt even really date anymore. Just casual hook ups. Not saying this is right, but the human sex drive has been a problem for thousands of years. I applaud anyone who has those principles and sticks by them.
There is nothing wrong with the human sex drive. Every period in history has its flaws, and these days there is a serious problem in our culture with responsibility. If you suggest to someone that it might be healthier to eat real food instead of a hotdog, cheetos, and a coke for lunch, youāre āfat shamingā. If a teacher refuses to inflate grades for āstudents of colorā theyāre racist. If you remind a teenager that having sex can lead to having a baby or getting a disease, youāre called a prude.
In all times in history, making good decisions leads to good outcomes. Sorry if that offends you.
I was born in 63. People havenāt changed, culture has. But the fact still remains that sex is not an uncontrollable urge. Itās a choice. But people act like āOops, I didnāt mean to have sex, it just happened and now I have this baby/disease/feeling of emptiness.ā Actions have consequences, and that wasnāt just true in the 50s.
I think it's a better bet, given the level of sex shaming and suppression of knowledge. to raise your children to be responsible and loving and to understand the consequences of sex, with and without birth control.
and to understand the financial consequences, and the life path consequences of unprotected sex. and even better, save it til you are in a committed relationship with someone you TRUST.
wishing and hoping for a day when kids dont have sex seems to me like the silliest of the options.
āSuppression of knowledgeā is a myth. Young people arenāt having sex outside of marriage because the adults in their lives didnāt educate them, but because the adults are saying āitās fine - do what you wantā.
If those adults would actually give them knowledge, along with wise counsel about how dangerous it is to engage in sex outside of āa committed relationshipā - aka marriage, with all the social and legal protections that come with it for the couple and the children that will likely be the result - then young people would get married and then have sex.
Iām not āwishing and hoping for a day when kids donāt have sexā. To me, wishing and hoping for a day when kids can have sex with no undesirable consequences is a whole lot sillier.
Well put Bryn. This notion that, "they are going to do it anyways (not just sex out of marriage but any self-destructive behavior) so let's try and remove all consequences" has been the direct cause of just about every society ill of the past seventy five years. And as we've seen with the trans stuff, there's no end to it as the more things are destigmatized, the more we get. We now have people arguing it's somehow compassionate to help kids cut their genitals off. Slippery slope on steroids.
This is the basic social conservative/social liberal divide that at it's heart is about exercising self control. Those who exercise self control are more successful in life by almost every objective measure; marriage length, physical health, mental health, financial status, legal issues, children's success, etc. This is blindingly obvious to most rational people. Bad decisions destroy people's lives and those of the ones around them.
Bottom line though is that this is a spiritual issue. People who exercise self-control usually do so out of accountability to God. People who behave recklessly, or even worse encourage others to do so, usually believe that they are accountable to no one. This is such an obvious reality that it boggles my mind that people cannot see it.
You misunderstood me. I have no problem with the human sex drive. We wouldnāt exist without it. I personally do not think it is necessary to wait until marriage, but I would counsel A young person to be careful to understand the risks and responsibilities, and try to have an experience with someone that they truly love. With very good birth control. I do respect people whose religious values make them want to wait until marriage. Again, not my personal issue. Just pointing out that expecting everybody to wait is unrealistic.
So what did you mean, then, when you wrote āthe human sex drive has been a problem for thousands of yearsā?
Counseling a young person to ātry to have an experience with someone that they truly loveā is the problem, because it is full of assumptions and ignores reality. You donāt have to have āreligious valuesā to understand that that āexperienceā can and often does lead to a baby, and then what? What if that person you ātruly loveā doesnāt truly love you? Abortion? A marriage that begins with duress? Single motherhood? Adoption, which is lovely for the couple wanting a child, but full of heartache for the foolish girl following your bad advice?
And thatās just the pregnancy possibility, what about the STD that will likely follow you the rest of your life? And no one talks about the very real emptiness young people experience with casual hook-ups.
You donāt have to have āreligious valuesā to look at this with eyes wide open and see that there just is no upside to sex outside of marriage, only risks. Responsibility is not religious. And the adults in the room need to wake up and start talking about this honestly, the whole thing, not just birth control and fantasy love.
Btw, both of my children were conceived while I was using birth control. Good thing I was happily married.
I declined the guardasil for my daughter too way back when. Then a friend of a friend died of papaloma virus throat cancer at 33. You donāt get paps for your throat so I got scared and had her get them. I still regret it. Thank God she was okay and is now 21 weeks pregnant with our first grandbaby. And this child will have no shots ever if I have to homeschool her myself, I will. Luckily we still have exemptions in my state.
My sister had it in her tongue. It has a high survival rate but it sounds like the 33 yo waited until it was too late and it must have metastasized into probably the lymph nodes. Not good.
Yeah, my boys doctor asked me, why, as a woman, I wouldn't want my boys vaxxed to prevent girls from getting cervical cancer. I replied, "They are 12 and not having sex and when they do, they can wrap it up." When I pointed out the issues in Australia, he told me it was all bunk and did a google search to show me nothing showed up.
Interesting that a nurse from the Health Dept called. I never answer these types of intrusive questions regardless of who is asking them. I'll usually reply with "how is that your business?" or something along those lines. My pastor once pointed out how Jesus in the Gospels often answered bad-faith questions with a question. That made a big impression on me.
Every interaction like this has three potential outcomes, I'll come out ahead, stay the same, or come out behind. There is zero chance I'd come out ahead in this instance. I'll likely stay the same, but there is a chance I come out behind if I say something incriminating that this person in authority doesn't like. Why in the world would one choose to participate in a voluntary interaction with those potential consequences?
I was naive and since it was another woman figured she would level with me. And she did! This was around 2010, maybe. But nowā¦would probably take your advice and not get into it!
I hear you, been there myself. Gray hair does have some advantages after all. I have to constantly remind myself of the things I did when I was younger and shake my head. Apologies if it came off as critical, that wasn't my intention.
Japan pulled it from the market due to all the injuries. But not the good olāUSA. We have commercials showing ācab dadā whose job is to keep his family safe.
The argument I heard was because itās sexually transmitted getting boys the shots would make it less likely theyād transmit š I think itās a bogus argument but clearly some bought into it.
My friend's teen daughter was separated from her mom for the physical exam at the ob gyn. My friend specifically told the dr and nurse no hpv vax. This child was given the shot anyway and has self reported she has never felt the same way since.
Your friend should sue/report if possible. So sadš¢ We parents & grands have to go beyond āstranger dangerā to tell kids that even people who seem ok do not always have their best interest at heart. Especially if money is involved! š„ŗ
My son started a Cal State University last September, they have a meningitis vax requirement. We simply filled out the religious exemption form that a long-standing Board of Regents order requires schools to accept. It was not intrusive but simply requires students to affirm that they have a religious or philosophical objection to vaccines. It was approved no questions asked.
The school didn't make the form easy to find and did the old trick saying all students were "required" to get vaxxed without elaborating on exemptions. But they are there if you hunt for them.
Not being judgmental but curious why you take your kids to pediatrician for a "wellness check" when there's nothing wrong with them. Between vaxxing them up, trying to separate you from your child to talk about sexual deviancy, and asking you intrusive questions like "do you have a gun in the house" there is zero reason to do so. Remember a simpler time when we only went to the doctor when we were actually sick?
Our private school says the wellness visit is required by the state. A certain form must be completed at the visit. I researched this ālawā and from what I can tell it is an effort to check kids for abuse. They have good intentions perhaps, but it is extremely invasive, the doctor inspects every square inch of my child looking for signs of abuse, completely unacceptable if you ask me and Iām about to forge the form next year.
I don't know about your state but most laws like this have an exemption provision to fend off legal challenges (though it's usually hidden or not disclosed). That way the requirement becomes technically voluntary. You have to find the actual law passed by the legislature and read the language in detail. Press releases and summaries put out by Public Health departments *never* state this and are intended to mislead you.
California has a requirement that all kids starting elementary school must have a dental exam (it was pushed by the Dentist's lobby). Although we had taken our kids to the dentist, we submitted the exemption because screw these people. Accepted with no questions asked.
And the school nurses will never mention exemptions. I'm wondering how to get the word out to parents of young children since the medical providers are hiding the very existence of exemptions from families.
This is where attorneys could really help, by reading the language and explaining it in laymanās terms so citizens would be armed with arguments and be able to opt out. They could post in a place that would be easy to find and accessible.
Yup, some orgs like the National Vaccine Information Center have done this for vax laws, but I've never seen it for something like this.
One thing we have to our advantage is knowing the exemption provision is almost always there. Laws are written by lawyers, and lawyers are cautious, detail-oriented people (unlike Public Health press hacks). Knowing it's there makes it pop out when you find it in the law text.
There is something wrong. She has chronic conditions. These are most likely from childhood vaccinations. Functional doc suggested I get any blood work done through doctors so insurance will pay.
So sorry Kim, she is in our prayers. We are in the same boat with our older son and thankfully a GFCF diet and protein supplements have made a huge difference for him. Stand your ground mom, you are doing the right thing on the vax (but you know that). I'm sure you can get an exemption for college. Even here in California (which doesn't have a childhood vax religious exemption) they have them for college. The National Vaccine Information Center is a great resource if you need help. God bless.
Thank you, Jeff. I have extreme guilt about ever having vaccinated her. But I did not know then what I know now. She is on a gluten free, low fodmap diet. And supplements. Itās helping but always a struggle.
I know it's difficult for moms. Years after my son's issues started my wife told me the same thing, the guilt. Men and women are so different, it had never even entered my mind. I was angry that we had been manipulated into doing it but never felt guilty. Once my wife told me I was shocked, I had no idea what she was going through.
You were deliberately manipulated by a very sophisticated campaign that toyed with your emotions. They told you that you would be a bad mom if you didn't give your child the shots. (This is why I think it hits moms so much harder, they don't say this to dads.) They used your God-given maternal instinct against you in a despicable fashion. It was a cynical and evil, and done just so they could make money.
I know it's easy to say but you have nothing to be guilty about. You were doing what you thought was in your child's best interests and were betrayed by people that you trusted. Betrayed by people who's very job it is to help you protect your child. That's not your fault. About the only thing that comes close is a child being abused by a religious figure that claims to follow Christ. It's that bad.
Lay that guilt at the feet of Jesus. He knows what kind of mom you are and how much you love your kids, He will break those chains of guilt. And know that everyone here is pulling for you and that you'll use that righteous anger to never let anyone ever again hurt your child. I know it sounds trite, but God does use the trials to transform us even though we can't possibly understand how in the moment. God bless and prayers up.
yes also 71.- my dad was a pediatrician who did house calls and traded with the local farmers for bags of Potatoes, tomatoes etc.
he talked a lot about preventive medicine which I think, knowing him, was about avoiding sugar and candy and eating more whole foods, not prepared ones and no chemicals added.. and less tv, more exercise, drinking water, instead of soda, etc.
Doc Gamm tended to my dad when he got chewed up by a chain saw, delivered all 6 of us kids and stitched up our family as needed. Small village in MN. Nobody had a choice, really. Thank God, he was a good Doc.
That's my question. Like ... someone takes their kid with nothing wrong with them to a doctor so that the doctor can say that there is nothing wrong with them.
Does any of that make any sense. Is that or is that not a usurpation of all parental authority? And the adult goes along with it like some knee jerk cast in cement consent.
I cop to fear on going along with the program. The court system was part of that. That, and at the time, late 20c in the immediate wake of the 1986 Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, I didn't know any better. If I knew then what I know now, the court system would still loom. I take your point, truly, but from the outside not every parent's choice can account for the subject circumstance. Just presenting another point of view. No intention to instigate anything heated.
In my case, there IS something wrong with my daughter. The functional doctor recommended I take her for blood work purposes. She is chronically ill and needs checks. Sometimes things are not cut and dry when your kid is ill. Otherwise, she would not be going to the doctor.
No one is saying never take your child to a doctor. If there are symptoms of a problem then absolutely one should get their child checked out.
What we are saying is that "well baby checks" are an excuse to get your child into the office to shoot them up with vaccines. That's the point. And most pediatricians are the worst pharma pushers of them all as they get paid large bonuses for hitting vaccination targets. The child is a revenue stream for them, they aren't unpaid missionaries helping poor starving kids.
It's fascinating that people think a single case of a pediatrician doing good somehow invalidates the the obvious corruption of the well baby visit premise. Hopefully this doesn't come across as overly harsh but this is shallow thinking. It's the same logic used to validate the entire vaccine program, if it saves just one life then the whole thing is worth it. No that's not true. We have to assess not just the possible consequence (your child might die!!) but also the likelihood. That's how one assesses risk and determining the prudent action, not just based on fear-mongering.
Pushing on this a bit further, did the pediatrician fix the child's vision problems by catching it early? Does the child have 20/20 vision now? Of course not. At best the pediatrician got the child wearing glasses earlier than she might have otherwise. That's all well and good but hardly a medical miracle. The parents, you, or a teacher would have noticed it soon enough without the well baby visit.
It's stories like yours that have been used to guilt well-meaning parents into regular office visits otherwise they get tarred as "bad parents". I don't mean this toward you as I know that's not your intention. But this is exactly what the medical industry does and it is their intention.
I think the answer is in her comment, "I pretty much lost it..." Good for her. People just passively accept a lot of this stuff but a good dose of well-timed righteous anger can work wonders.
Any touch point with medical providers (these days) is just a chance to be shaken down to take pills, jabs, and procedures. The medical industry is a total mess now.
I can relate. Our doctor threw a fit when my son said no, so he called me into the examining room. I confirmed he was not to be given the vaccine. He said I was putting the āboyā at harm. I said he already has severe allergies and his immune system was not strong enough. He left the room and a nurse came in with a tray loaded with syringes! I asked her what are those for, we said no. She went and got Dr. Benadryl (the name I gave him when my son was younger). He came back into the room screaming at me. The a-hole had the nerve to tell me the government would take care of him. I looked him dead in the eye and said no means no. When he stormed out the nurse said to me, āGood for you. I remember you. Where have you been?ā We hadnāt gone to him for 12 years. The only reason we were there, was to get a copy of his records for college. We were able to file a philosophical exemption because they were still accepted in 2009.
The department of defense did a study on its personnel in 2019 to see how effective flu vaccines were. It turns out that the flu vaccine raised your risk of all other respiratory viruses by 36%, including the coronaviruses that were circulating at the time.
Of course. The flu shot rarely matches the form in circulation, so your immune system is all primed for something that doesnāt exist while the stuff that does exist shows up and knocks you flat.
I foolishly let my daughter have the flu shot 1.5 years ago and she has been more sick than the whole rest of her life. It really makes me upset. The upside is she knows she's been sick more times that she'd like and won't ever take another. Very hard lesson to learn.
Do you have a link to this study??? At some point there was a study done in South Korea, I believe, which did a flu vaccine v inert placebo study on flu vaccine effectiveness. I had the link to it on an old computer, which I no longer have and I canāt find that study any longer. That old study showed equal rates of the flu in both groups but far higher rates of other respiratory illnesses in the flu vaccine arm. Iād love to read the study you are referencing!!!
For me, the takeaway line in that paper is, "Being protected against influenza, TIV recipients may lack temporary non-specific immunity that protected against other respiratory viruses." That applies equally to the mRNA spike protein and one's natural immune system.
Agreed. Iāve never had the flu shot, itās been over 20 years since Iāve had the flu. Mom, in the few years before her death, had bad reactions but her doc had her keep getting it until I stepped in.
PS please watch TheHighwire online if you are not already doing so. They do in-depth investigative journalism, not only on science and medicine, but on climate and all of the globalist tactics, gender issues, and nefarious practices. If you watch the show, which is Live on Thursdays at 2 PM Eastern, and replayed anytime after that., you will be a few years ahead of the curve on events that are important to health and humanity. And it is entertaining and extremely inspirational!
Iāve watched Del since he began in 2017. Watch Peggy Halls latest Substack video. She brings up some troubling info on a new ICAN and Aaron Siri lawsuit. You need to read it for yourself. Peggy makes some good points, that if true, will make me stop donating to them. Iāll see if I can find the link.
I saw this as well and it was concerning. I wrote to ICAN for their side of this, as I canāt make a decision on heresay, and received the following response: (I have not yet checked into it)
āThanks for reaching out, we appreciate you letting us know. Iām sorry for the confusion here. ICAN Legislate began promoting this bill in August 2023, and its primary purpose is to create a new exemption based on minimal safety standards:
See link to The Highwire episode (with relevant time stamp) posted by @Fed up in this expanded thread. The text of the proposed law is very crafty - a sort of middle finger at all the craftiness in bills-passed-into-laws used against the People at every f'n turn by industry after industry. I would say rest assured Del and Aaron Siri & co know precisely what they're doing, but that is for you to decide on your own.
"But what really threw me for a loop was when a few of Bigtreeās associates reached out to me privately defending Bigtree saying that I, myself, was in error and that surely, Bigtreeās bill was nothing like I was making it out to be, because Bigtree is āone of us.ā
Well, the thing is: I didnāt criticize Bigtree, I criticized his bill, and I stand by my analysis of it."
The childhood vaccine schedule was bought and paid for by Big Pharmaā¦with no basis that it protects or prevents anything the āshotsā are supposedly for. And how they guarantee this, is that they have bought many state legislatures, to pass legislation that requires ALL children be āvaccinatedā with this horrific and injurious āscheduleā to be able to attend school in these states. (And many states like California allow for absolutely NO exemptions.)
Itās a giant CASH COW for them and the pediatricians and health care provider groups that push them. And in turn these children become ālifetime patientsā of the Industrial Medical Healthcare Delivery System from the āvaccine injuriesā.
I agree, the court ruling set some really good precedents to build on. Aaron Siri has been doing exactly what you are requesting backed by Del Bigtree. I'm sure they'll be all over this.
There's lots to choose from but this is my favorite quote from the court, "Litigants who have already demonstrated their willingness to tactically manipulate the federal courts in this way should not be given any benefit of the doubt." Yes!!
The court is saying that people who routinely lie and/or act in bad faith are probably doing it this time too until proven otherwise (i.e. not given the benefit of the doubt). Hardly precedent setting but finally some common sense, by their fruits you shall know them.
But is it true? Been following Mercola for years & still get daily newsletters from him, never heard him pushing psychics. Iāve never heard of Peggy Hall until yesterday. š¤·āāļø
Many people are. Here are a few Dr. Peter McCullough, Steve Kirsch, Dr Pierre Kory, RFK, childrenās health defense, a great organization led by warrior moms called PERK. There are many many others. The great lawyer Aaron Siri and the organization ICAN (informed Consent Action Network) I have been battling the CDC and FDA for years, and have had many victories and are building a foundation of precedents that can be built upon. ICAN is a great resource if you are interested in helping. They regained the religious exemption for school children in Mississippi, and are trying to free the five remaining states in the country that will not allow religious exemptions. ICAN is a fantastic nonprofit organization to donate to.
They bastardized the term vaccine sufficiently to make all vaccines a therapeutic which makes them all optional? And letās stop pretending the old vaccines were preventing disease as I am now told I need an MMR booster in my 40ās, a flu shot every year, chicken pox booster for my nephews in their 20ās, pneumococcal booster⦠Booster is the key word here - vaccine therapeutic. Therefore, all can be deemed optional.
As a farmer, I can tell you balls are good for more than courage. They cause adventuresome behavior, stubbornness, a certain type of Donāt Screw with Me behavior, and other desirable traits.
It doesnāt take courage for a bull to chase me out of the pasture, because heās easily big enough, as are the steers, but only one of them causes me to watch closely to see if heās looking at me.
More of our men need to exhibit a strong enough Donāt Screw with Me and My Herd attitude to scare the bureaucrats and politicians.
As a friend with two daughters says , the womens' movement spent decades emasculating and criticizing masculine behavior, but now they regularly complain there are no real men left? Duh?
Well, a friend of mine coined the term āpolitical castrationā (PC) to describe the behavior of so many politicians and other āthought leadersā in our society today. Geldings and steers and capons behave differently than when they were āintactāā¦soā¦
'Spineless cowards' gives a much stronger message and is as insulting as it gets. But, we live in an age of 'talking pigs' and it is getting worse. I have been guilty as well but I am trying to control my choice of word usage when angry which is quite often with these Godless, cowardly, communist turd munchers, driving the bus. :o)
Yes. My daughter-in-law, who faithfully waited for God to bring the right man into her life, is almost at the end of her first pregnancy at the age of 38. She and my son were able to make this baby without the fertility treatments that are so common today. And they are so happy, except for the anxiety about what the medical world may do their child.
When my DIL was four years old, she got a baby brother. She had all the play equipment to mimic her motherās actions in caring for the baby; bathing and changing and feeding her baby doll. But at around 2 years of age, the brother, who had been developing normally up to that time, suddenly regressed and became a different child. Today, we would say he is autistic. But 30 years ago, his parents and even the family doctor didnāt know what to make of it.
My DIL is dealing with the fear that this will happen to her child. She is a very earnest well educated, professional person and has researched exhaustively, has a functional physician and has done everything health wise that she knows to do. My heart aches for her.
She says her brother went through several courses of antibiotics in his early life because of ear infections. She believes this affected his immune system and he was overwhelmed by the childhood vaccines given to him. (Which 30 years ago was far fewer than today!).
Her present concern is she tested positive for group B strep (GBS- this is mandatory testing for pregnant women now) and either she has to receive antibiotics during labor to āsupposedlyā prevent the baby from getting GBS or she has to stay an extra day at the hospital so they can āmonitorā the baby. The antibiotics would enter the babyās bloodstream.
She and my son are resolved, after extensive research, to not vaccinate the child. Theyāve been able to find a supportive pediatrician. (Miraculous in itself, as almost all of them will refuse you if you donāt vaccinate.)
If you pray, please pray for this decision they have to make about the antibiotics.
We really donāt want them to be āmonitoringā the babyās health for an extra day. We have zero trust that āhealthā is their priority.
I donāt even know where this GBS business came from. I had four midwife deliveries going back 50 years ago and there was no such thing. My children were having their babies some 15-30 years ago and they donāt remember such a thing.
Sorry, this is long and may not seem relevant to many of you. But if youāre not concerned about the fact that Autism rates have increased from 1 in 10,000 30 years ago to 1 in 5 today, you better be! I worked extensively with Autistic children in the public school system, and I do not believe civilization can survive with 20% of the population thus afflicted.
Something has to be done to stop this massive vaccine madness.
Kind of worried that this decision might create a precedent where if they can "prove" that a vaccine will protect others and not just the recipient then it will be able to be mandated... I'd like to have Jeff's thoughts on that. Anybody else thinking the same thing?
When I think how angry and righteous I used to be about parents who refused to vaccinate their kids -this was before Covid....it's very embarrassing to me. Once I realized with Covid what they were doing, it took less than a split-second for me to realize it has likely been that way all along. Oh, the apologies I need to send out....
We can also start standing up for our pets and saying NO to all these recommended vaccines. Many of the human policy overeaches started w pet policies. Try traveling w an unvaccinated dog. Nearly all kennels, day cares, and many hotels, etc. require proof of vaccination. (Early test runs for vaccine passports!) Veterinary medicine is ALSO Rockefeller Medicine.
Woke is just one denomination of the Cult of Science. The climate nut "scientists" are not woke, but they are just as much a part of that Cult. It's just bad, misguided science that is our primary problem, worldwide.
Jeff made the key point: Science is not a moral guide; it has absolutely nothing of value to add to decisions of morality. All it can do is test hypotheses as to what is "true" or not. And even then, it can only test physical properties in the shared phenomenal world. At best, it can provide but one type of input into decision-making.
And that is the key problem with "public health" as a discipline. Real public health decisions are moral decisions primarily - but also economic decisions, legal decisions, business decisions - not merely medical or "scientific" decisions.
Once the big threats to public health were controlled (with clean water and food and effective sanitation), the only way to stay in business was to find the next 'biggest threat,' even if it wasn't a big threat, and here we are. John Snow removing the handle from the Broad Street water pump in London isn't remembered as a tyrannical move, but one that saved many lives, through his recognition, by collecting and mapping the data, that most cases of cholera centered on that common-use water pump.
This benefits us Seattle Firefighters who were fired for the mandates despite our exemptions. Itāll strengthen our case. Anyone who thought it was justifiable to fire cops, firefighters, teachers, nurses and doctors need a huge reality check on the facts.
Yep, the city of Seattle, just like King County and the State of Washington, never had ANY intention of honoring the religious exemption requests of anyone! Praying that your suit continues to move forward. I know many people in Seattle who either lost their jobs or were forced to take an experimental shot they did not want or need.
Yes, Iām very glad for you, because it seems so obvious that piercing your skin with an unknown chemical concoction is an assault and battery! Simple common law, effectively incorporated in the constitution. Hallelujah that some peopleās eyes have opened.
Come now, you who say, āToday or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.ā Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, āIf the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.ā
I still use that one! One grandmother was from the Midwest, my other grandparents lived not too far from a river that is known to breach it's banks on a semi-regular basis. šš¤£
I grew up with that saying in the Florida Panhandle; just a few miles from the Alabama border. And lived in a spot where creeks rising would temporarily cut us off from the rest of the world.
But Recently, someone told me that saying actually comes from the days of the Indian Wars, and refers to the possibility of the Creeks going on the war path.
WHERE IS DR. MERCOLA? He is MIA. His company and his foundation are under new management, his sister has been fired who helped found his company 40 years ago, he has ceased making videos, he has reversed many of his long standing health recommendations and his foundation has ceased their 15 year support of the anti-vaccine charity National Vaccine Information Center. And yet, through all this, Dr. Mercola is nowhere to be seen. The only person publicly representing the Mercola organization is someone called Kai, who claims to be a psychic who channels an "entity" called Bahlon, who is advising Mercola. Where is Mercola? Is he even alive? Why have all these changes taken place in his company and yet he is no where to be seen?
Mercola has been under attack since this whole thing started years ago. If you recall, he was identified by Biden as one of the "dirty dozen" that was spreading misinformation and should be deplatformed and cancelled. They de-banked him and closed his bank accounts. They tried to destroy his company and he fought them tooth-and-nail and they failed. I fear now they have come at him through other means and succeeded. The HUGE red flag is that since all these changes occurred, Mercola himself has not personally appeared. Where is he? The things that has been done do NOT fit with the Mercola we know. He fired his sister. Really? He reversed himself on carbs and is now recommending a carb loaded diet that would drive anyone into diabetes! This is not Mercola. He knows too much. For me to believe that he would recommend such a position goes against all logic. Mercola is smarter than that. And now a "psychic" that channels a demon is the only person speaking for him publicly??? No! This stinks to high heaven. I don't buy it for one second. What have they done with him?
One might look more broadly - there are a number of prominent people being taken out from their positions of influence in a wave of censorship. Silencing Bannon, Jones, Mercola, Trump, and others. The enemy is regrouping and taking out prominent people who can help organize an opposition to future plans. Just like what happened in 2021 when Media Matters publishes a hit piece that deplatformed a dozen prominent YouTube influencers over the course of two days.
I didnāt think bought off but more for his own safety? Not implying he was a coward but more waiting it out. I donāt know him well enough to say but it was just a thought.
Good question. I always enjoyed the videos he did on a regular basis. They have suddenly ceased. Either he is dead or he is in no condition to be allowed in front of the public.
I can't vouch for this substack author entirely, and I don't not vouch for him, but here's what Rounding the Earth wrote about what happened to Mercola
Thanks for the link. I think what is happening as an organized effort to discredit Mercola. Why is a psychic speaking for Mercola. Mercola can't speak for himself? When I see Mercola in person saying this is his position then I will believe what is being said. Where is he? Until then all of this is not legitimate in my opinion.
I don't trust him either!! Don't dare ask him questions about what he is writing or get into any dialogue he doesn't approve of!!! He'll blast you, block you and lie about you!!!! I had it happen on something very small that I asked him. So take what he publishes with a grain of salt! I've never had that happen on any substacks I participate in!!!!
I have seen other reports about this. My question is how far back does this antagonistic behavior go? Is this fairly recent or has he always been like this?
Following a presumed confidential meeting/contact, Sage Hana got doxxed a year ago or more. Again a year or more ago, I forget who the other party was, the subject party lashed out after the other party challenged. I was done at that point. There was some love lost with *horse farmer/jet setter/presumably vx injured M.D. fairly early, aggression from the side of the subject party. I forget the response: ghosting? blocking? standardš“tactics; full on full length article? I don't remember, just that the war had become internal. (Just to be clear, though I got sucked into š“for about a year at the start I am now at the stage of full distrust; I'm convinced dude's a limited hangout/controlled opposition.) Anyway, behavior of the subject party is not merely of late but rather longstanding. My observations, sans documentation.
*edited re virtuous, frivolous potential libel charges from a known litigious party
I know he has been under attack for sometime. Did they succeed? I am still getting their email, but will quit buying from this company until we get the truth. Iāve relied on him for years, but lately he is amending many of his prior beliefs, so maybe it isnāt him sending them. This is so frustrating. God be with him.
I have lightly followed Mercola for decades but I don't pay a lot of attention otherwise. The change that first alerted me to something going on was his change on carbs a few weeks ago. Abandoning his KETO recommendation, "he" is now recommending a carb loaded diet that would destroy anyone's health and turn them diabetic. I instantly knew that could not be Mercola - unless he has been "captured".
Keto, lowcarb and such like IF starves your body and brain from the glucose the body and brain prefers. Science proves that. You arenāt really burning fat properly like you think and gluconeogenisis is using cortisol, adrenaline stress hormones to generate that glucose and leads to bad fat oxidation and insulin resistance long term. Think about itāstress hormones really needed for short term energy should not run your entire brain and body all the time. Degrades and shreds muscles, my thyroid went haywire, bones weaker, (2 surgeries for broken bones) metabolism on the floor and insulin resistance weight gain and more. I eat simple carbs like fruit and easily digested carbs. Iām not stuffing my face with bad carbs and especially bad seed oils. Iām probably over 200 carbs a day now. Decent amount of food. I feel much better, sleep great, more energy with these delicious fruit carbs. Nutritious carbs. Fats, even butter, b doesnāt really have much nutritional value beyond that but maybe Vit A. Fruit has a lot. Lustig is wrong too. Very wrong, but making plenty of money on those mice. Several gurus are now eating more carbs. Admitting the damage. Mercola woke me up to this. Iām grateful but it hasnāt been easy changing.
Nothing wrong with fruit, in moderation, that mother nature meant to be eaten such as berries, papaya, etc. Goes great with a healthy meat based diet. Americans typically eat anything but a healthy diet of mostly processed foods extremely heavy on the processed carbs. Thus the diabetes epidemic. Then you add in all the heavily consumed industrial seed oils and you have a population of sick, weakly people who are dying early. Prior to 1970, Alzheimer's wasn't even a thing... seed oils instead of animal fat and coconut oil.
I understand. I've never agreed with the entire Keto philosophy and got the books because my son was using it and I wanted to understand it better and be able to cook good meals he could heat. I believe in balance in everything, especially eating. I don't eat any junk foods, bad carbs, bad fats, eat all pasture raised meats and raise my own chickens for my eggs. I also get raw milk from grass fed cows and won't give up any quality food group. We can only eat so much and I believe in a well balanced and high quality food diet. I'll never give up fruit, especially fresh berries of all kinds and now is the season they are coming in.
Heās put out recent stuff and videos. Iāve watched them. He put his archive back on line so not sure what the poster means. Yes, he has amended some of his recommendations. No longer low carb keto because he now understands that long term use of IF, low carb, keto, carnivore works fine for awhile and then causes metabolic and energy generating damage at the cell level, leading to down regulation of metabolism, thyroid, insulin resistance, weight gain and much more. Iām trying to reverse my damage from nearly 10 years of it. He has helped make me aware of all this. The trend is leveling out on all this plus former gurus are changing their tune. I donāt buy his products as I try to keep supplement use down.
My new position is "all the vita pills industry is complete BS". Until I find otherwise. Especially from the fancy expensive guys like Mercola. We know much of the sources are Chinese/India industrial chems, and then put into pills here to be labelled as 'made in America'.
CDC is corrupt. Our doctors are corrupt. Why do we trust the vita industry as we seek 'health in a pill'. 3rd party testers? Could be bought off. Let's investigate and ask questions!
I have used supplements for decades to great effect. However, I believe about 80% of all supplements are BS...just a guess. I have limited myself to a very few supplement companies, most notably Life Extension whose supplements have always proven to be first rate and they back it up with real science.
I stopped using Life extension a year before lockdown
They were putting silica in one & it upset my stomach. Pure encapsulation brand now. Iām very weak in autoimmune system from cirs and mold illness. I take extra olive leaf for the āshedding āthat seemingly never ends.
I was using Pure Encapsulations as well, but they have been bought out by Nestle so I've been using up what I have and will review it further. It's so exasperating.
So as much as people can say eat better, I already eat great but we still have to rely on quality supplements to enhance what we need. I have asthma and have used vitamin c supplements for years. There is no way I can eat the amount of food to get me the dose I need in vitamin C.
Same here! & Iām gluten free, non gmo , Apeel makes me burp for hours. Every time I go shopping, another company has cheapened their products to keep the cost down. My favorite chocolate covered almonds was the most recent one.
Please stay away from Apeel and Organipeel!!! I trust nothing out of Gates! I eat organic and nongmo for anything I canāt buy organic. But one thing I learned about nongmo to be careful about. It still has pesticides and you really want to eat organic grain and flour products. The worst thing is how conventional wheat is being processed in the U.S. They now harvest it with glyphosate to dry it faster. Well we know you canāt take that out. Plus nongmo corn likely has pesticides so I recommend organic corn products unless you buy from farmers you know. I think a lot of people are avoiding gluten when the issue now because of all the pesticides they are using to harvest it. Who ever expected the US to be the worst in the food industry!! Itās just diabolical.
I believe my leaky gut and ā gluten intolerance ā is actually a glyphosate allergy. I asked the allergist if they had a test ( years ago) & got a blank stare.
Iāve been modifying many of the supplements I take as so many companies have been bought out by Big Pharma or other corporations who have done questionable things! Itās so frustrating as I have been doing this almost 30 years and now the companies we trusted are being bought out. Although some of the prior owners have said they will stay involved, there is only so much these companies will let them do. Life Extension is one I am impressed with all the way around. They offer so much more than just supplements. Itās a well rounded company!
The core issue is, once again, looking for "salvation" in the material world. Whether looking to mainstream doctors or alternatives, it's still believing the world can save us. I advocate for finding one's Inner Voice (connection with God), and asking to be led to whatever is appropriate for any given situation. [Really liked that Tucker interview with new president of El Salvador ... similar theme...]
His longtime partner, Erin Elizabeth, posted about this whole messy mess on Telegram, Feb 14. She asked for prayer for Joe and his family, as they are deeply concerned about him and the people he is now surrounding himself with.
Wow, this is really weird. He's been convinced he is a god and the new Jesus? He's fired Christians? I'm going to unsubscribe from his emails, which I haven't read for awhile anyway.
That is what is being said about him...heresay. I believe what his happening right now is an attempt to de-legitimize Mercola. Whatever has been done with Mercola will eventually come out and they must prepare the ground work for his "demise".
I am with you about hearsay. So far we have no idea who is speaking for him and I do recall when he came out and advised us that he was being threatened as well as his family. I can see them coming in and destroying everything he worked for. The carb thing really was a red flag since I have bought some of his keto books and this was an huge change! I just deleted it and moved on. Something didn't seem normal at all. Just look what they are doing to President Trump. Then do a search for Dr. Mercola and there are all kinds of hit pieces on him by the leftists talking heads!
Just speculating, but he may have been targeted for psychological warfare and perhaps had a breakdown. I noted that one of his last videos he was touting buying eggs only from a person who fed her chickens peas that had been cooked over a 24 hour period and he was paying $25 a dozen. It was really odd. That's not a natural diet for chickens.
I know, but he tipped me off to the damage of low carb and keto, fasting etc long term. Most of which I have or am experiencing. There is so much wrong after the initial good feeling or weight loss. Downhill health problems that donāt appear for a while. Heās always been super enthused and s bit hyper plus on the cutting edge. Just because heās eating fruit now or sells supplements , doesnāt make him suspect. They all do. He admits his mistakes which you have to agree is pretty rare these days. He lists sources and references for each article. I have learned a lot. He has been attacked by all sides of power.
Oh my, that is disturbing. I hope heās OK. I do know that he and his family were receiving death threats at one point, and I know the government did everything they could to stifle his company.
I too am wondering what the heck happened. He is now aligned with some sort of psychic, has been making anti-christian comments, etc. It sounds like he went to the Dark Side?!
āBelief in capital-S Science required faith, not reason.ā
šÆ I wrote something similar in my very first Substack post over three years ago:
āThis ideological mass psychosis is religionānot science. If this were about science, the MediaāPharmaceuticalāBig-Tech complex would not be memory-holing every dissenting voice, vilifying every thought criminal, and censoring every legitimate inquiry in quest of the truth.ā (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/a-primer-for-the-propagandized)
As Richard Feynman said, āI would rather have questions that cannot be answered than answers that cannot be questioned.ā
I take issue with the following statement, though š
āThis irrational train would shortly pass through the rabbit hole tunnel and arrive at an Alice in Wonderland station where the gift shop sells books like Anti-Racist Baby.ā
As one of my favorite Apocaloptimists, Jeff, I think you will especially resonate with the piece I published yesterday, as will many C&C readers who are practitioners of Confront the Brutal Facts + Stockdale Paradox:
Loved the homeowners association reference...the reason we will never buy property in a collective run by an HOA board. They take the saying "a little bit of power..." to an extreme.
In the words of the Princess Bride modified: There are two things you should never do. First never get into a land war in Asia and second never get into a lawsuit with an HOA. I worked for a guy who wanted to develop some property. He's been in a lawsuit with the HOA for over 10 years. It's insane.
I counter sued my HOA several years ago and WON. How? The community was so disgusted with their actions against me, they voted out the majority of the board and ran for and won their seats. We then settled the suit amicably and peacefully. It can be done, but you have to have the community with you.
Not to be devil's advocate or anything, but I've served on several HOA boards. The single biggest problem from a Board's perspective? >> People who buy property in an HOA and REFUSE to read the governing documents of the place before they sign. They move in, and want to do whatever they were doing in a private single-family home, or some other HOA. Everyone wants the "conveniences" of HOA living (landscaping and other needs handled for you, and often much more), but they also want the freedom to do whatever they want, no matter what they signed off on. You can't have your cake and eat it too (most of the time anyways.)
I worked for an HOA in the richest area of central Ohio. 90% of the residents had more money than common sense. The other 10% were pretty cool. I had to do these "welcome" speeches for new residents and I can't tell you the number of people who were shocked when I told them the rules. They HAD to sign a copy of those rules when they closed! It took everything I had not to ask them why the hell they didn't read it first.
At one of our closings, we were reading everything carefully before signing. We delayed the rest of the day's schedule, because apparently almost no one reads them, so they schedule them with short time availability. As a college student, my friend and I read the rental lease for our apartment; the manager said we were the only ones he'd seen do that. My dad was a lawyer, so I was raised with that guidance.
Thank you!! I was on my HOA board for 10 years, president for 5 of them. Our neighborhood is oldish, most houses built in the early 80's but our deed of restrictions has ensured that not only has our neighborhood kept its value, but actually makes it sought after with our pool, tennis courts, clubhouse and lots of neighborhood activities all maintained and organized by our volunteer board. One need only drive through the neighborhoods to the E and W of ours, that do not have an HOA, to see that there is some value. I 'get' that some HOA boards are petty tyrants and dictators but our restrictions are basically, 'you must maintain your property'. An occasional PITA-type person who occasionally landed on our board was voted out. If you want to let weeds over run your flower beds, have peeling paint on your house, and pile junk in your driveway, don't buy a house in our HOA.
My favorite scenario is when several "cost conscious" owners manage to get on a board. They then refuse all recommendations to raise fees and properly fund the reserves. Thus creating multiple cases of "deferred maintenance." They save money, sell their properties years later, and future owners get slammed with huge concrete, roofing, and other capital costs as assessments.
We have a couple of saintly people who've been on our board for ~30 years (although one recently stepped down due to failing health). They are the 'rock' members who have records and memories of every dumb decision and discussion (every 5-7 years we get a young one who wants to put in a playground - legal liability, insurance costs, and maintenance issues make it a big NO, and we have 2 city owned parks with playgrounds within a mile of us). Me and the 2 rocks were the only ones to vote down a proposal to resurface the pool area with a surface that ended up being slick when it was wet, and hotter than blazes when the sun hit it. The silver tongued sales guy's company filed bankruptcy when we took him to court (we weren't the only ones unhappy) and THAT dumb decision ate most of our reserves as we ended up having to tear out the entire pool deck and replace it. Other than that we have maintained a pretty even keel between keeping dues down and taking care of the less sexy maintenance things, thanks in a large part to the legacy members. God bless them - I did 10 years and I burned out - hours and hours of unpaid work and people only pay attention when they get pissed off and want to yell at you over some petty thing. Most have no clue how much work goes into it, especially when you have a very large common area, clubhouse, pool, and tennis courts that all have to be maintained.
I'm sure there are a few reasonable ones...but I've never heard anyone say they are fine with their HOA. We once looked at a small property (11 acres) with a house in an HOA. When I read the agreement it was just short of "you must go to church o Sunday and we will install video cameras all over your property and in your house to make sure you comply". For property with acreage, the restrictions were insane.
Well hereās a first for you thenāIām fine with mine. They were only a bit excessive about dandelions (for example) when the builders were still in control of it. Once it completely went over to the homeowners, after all the lots were sold, it became more relaxed and reasonable (even though it wasnāt bad before that).
I've read that HOAs are where the mall cop petty tyrants concentrate. My mom's had total seizures over a planter in front of her condo. They wanted to dictate what color it could be painted, how often it should be painted, and how high the vegetation could be in it. Control freak centrals, though now many have no doubt migrated to the public health and DEI establishments.
I have to speak up on behalf of Hoaās. Iām on the board of ours simply for the reason NOONE ELSE WANTS TO DO IT. But let me tell you, EVERYONE WANTS TO COMPLAIN ABOUT YOU! My term expires in January and Iām done. If our development turns to crap, weāll move.
Yep, did 10 years. Work your butt off for zero pay and then get yelled at all the time. I stuck with it as we had a core group for many years that were great people who did what they said they would do, were conscientious and we all had a good sense of humor and had some fun with it.
We have a core group on the board too. four out of the five members are great friends. Iām tired of everyone complaining about everything yet not one person is willing to help when weāre out weeding or watering or repairing. Itās our vacation home. We want to relax when weāre there butā¦. We had a neighbor come out and complain for 45 minutes as my husband and I were fertilizing the new landscaping. She didnāt understand why the landscaping company wasnāt doing it. I turned to her and said oh of course they would do it. But they will charge us. We donāt have the money in the budget to pay them for that unless we raise our Hoa dues. I said I didnāt have a problem with than. Did she? It shut her up but not for long. So tired of it.
Yes, landscaping services is one of the worst. No problem finding companies to mow & trim trees - but weeding, planting plants and maintaining it's either really expensive or really bad follow through. When I first got on the board ~2005 we had a 'teen list' of neighborhood teens who would advertise their availability for odd jobs - from dog walking, babysitting, leaf raking, snow removal. My son did a ton of that as he was in Boy Scouts and used the money he made for going on 3 'high adventure' trips. We had several teens the board used to pay for that sort of thing, with a few of us on the board working alongside them and supervising. But any more, seems like there are no teens who want to sweat or get dirty. I am no longer on the board but still pitch in on some of the 'clean up days' that they try to get volunteers for. Same old, same old, lots of keyboard warriors who complain but few who show up to DO stuff.
HOA board service has been called "The Worst Volunteer Position in American." Seriously - there is an article out there with that title. I think it's true.
One HOA topic I haven't seen discussed: Many people are worried about Blackrock and foreign investors buying up properties and turning them into rentals. It's happening in many neighborhoods. Yet, many HOAs (and most condo associations) prohibit rentals. Property owners scream about "my property rights," but their community is *protected* from the rental housing effect by those very same HOA documents. Seems that's worth something??
Yes, we had to grandfather in existing rentals due to case law precedent in our state, but our board did hold a vote in 2021 on changing our deed of restrictions so that no more properties in our neighborhood can become rentals upon sale effective 1/1/22. Our neighborhood is the kind of houses that are right in the sweet spot of these investors - prices hover right in the median housing price for our metro, although I have been reading that the investors are now pivoting into the below median value market due to higher interest rates.
We changed our bylaws this past year to say that you could not own more than two units and you had to live in one of the two. It passed, but barely. We have a person in there that owned three units and she sold two of them to a couple who live across the street. This couple now rents them out. They were one of the reasons we changed the bylaws. Unfortunately, they are grandfathered in but at least we stopped it from happening in the future.
When I bought my new house, that was my #1 rule. No HOAs, no "neighborhood associations", no one bothering me about how I live my life. If I want to paint the house purple and pink, I'm not asking anyone. Never good for a free spirit to go near those places.
You are so right!! As free spirit I feel the same. I do try to be respectful though. Admittedly, I fall short. I am not going to live my life to please others. Those days ended when I was 15 (I got some sense of self)
I live in a village in SC on Lake Moultrie. When I bought this house 26 yrs ago, the closing papers said that there was an HOA. I wanted to see the rules/fees, the closing attorney said "They don't have any". I've never been charged a fee and nobody's been elected to it in 26 yrs! Bliss.
This is where politicians start. And then itās on to town boards, and up and up. Every single one of them, almost to a man, want power over others. There is no other explanation. The altruistic politician, ended with George Washington.
I campaigned for an elected office because that approval board (above HOA's in that community) was out of control and beat all the incumbents. I said I would clean up the approval group and did. One of the first, a real estate agent, suddenly retired after 18 years. A few hung on more tenaciously. I highlighted some of their shenanigans and supported homeowners vigorously in an effort to allow more roofing options in. One of the group members was a little too cozy with some roofing contractors. I went "undercover" at a factory training class for the new roofing materials to understand this lightweight alternative, see how it looked, etc. I liked it so much I put it on my previously cedar shingled roof because stone was too heavy for that roof. (installed it myself too) Stone coated steel for those that are interested. Textured and formed to look like stone tiles.
Same here. Ours is relaxed and just keeps things from getting out of hand. For example we voted to limit rentals to avoid big companies coming in and buying houses to rent out. Itās a great neighborhood with mostly nice respectful people and the few issues get handled in a reasonable way.
Yes, we were able to vote in restrictions on rentals a few years ago - when I was on the board our lawyer told us that case law precedents in our state made that all but impossible. But after I left the board, they consulted a different lawyer who did put together wording that he thought would survive a challenge and it passed by the neighborhood vote by a large margin. We had to 'grandfather in' existing rentals but effective 1/1/2022 no one can buy a house in order to rent it out. So far has not been challenged. Out of 374 homes, about 25 of them are rentals, and those landlords and/or their tenants are about 80% of the problems our board has to deal with. You can tell the rentals from the owned just by driving the neighborhood, corporate landlords do the bare minimum and only fix things when they get a letter from us.
I can't believe it took a court case to prove the "vaccines" aren't actually "vaccines" has everyone been living under a rock, although I do understand why the court case happened, Im just amazed why the entire "covid" scam wasn't shut down years ago, there are millions upon millions of dead and at least 2 billion injured from the "vaccines" that aren't really "vaccines" I believe once the demons found a way to get filthy rich they decided they're never going to stop using this recipe, mRNA bioweapons for all, no matter what until the end of time or Jesus returns and shut them down.
Yes. To understand the collusion I suggest reading the first 50 pages of RFKās latest book, the Wuhan coverup, which lays out the historic 75 year symbiotic relationship between our universities, the Pharma industry, our military and the CIA ā ā which incorporated the techniques they learned from Japanese and German biomedical warfare, a.k.a. war criminals who were āsavedā through operation paperclip.
Courts are just a long uphill part treadmill, part ramp/chute out of the stock pen that one plods through with one exit into the slaughter house and the other exit ramp leading right back into the same dusty, manure-strewn pen you were previously milling about in.
āGovernmentā has had 4 years to step up. We have more data now than ever, a preponderance, that shows corruption, working with a foreign enemy, breaking laws, manipulation, etc.. no one is in jail or hung. Millions dead and injured. We have no legitimate government of, by, and for the people. Not local, state or federal. Their Christianity is hollow while their bank accounts are bursting.
My daughterās 9 year old friend at summer camp left early yesterday to get a vaccine. My daughter asked her why sheās getting a vaccine and she said, my mom said thereās a new disease going around and it will keep me safe. My child said most of her friends looked shocked and said nothing. We know most the families and they are all against it. Sad for this girl.
ChINOs? Hey, pay taxes, honor the Emperor...turn the cheek, and Don't Judge! Oh yeah and Love everybody, and there is no Hell or eternal consequences so Live it Up while you can, the Good Guy in the Sky will make it all ok!

Yeah but remember the savings and loans fallout, as I recall around 900 people were prosecuted. Then we had the 2007-2008 financial crisis and afaik zero prosecutions. So the rot has been in for a while
Jeffrey, your post about āscienceā being deranged by a Spirit of Fear really hits the nail on the head. I relished reading this entire post about the pandemic and would like to share (with credit to its author, of course) if you donāt mind. That said, I am really interested in reading your original post which caused you to be canceled by every platform in one day. Where might I find that article, please? Lastly, I canāt begin to express how much I enjoy reading your daily C & C News postsā¦I look so forward to them every morningā¦except for Sundays šā¦but I guess you do deserve a day offā¦
Gov. DeSantis, it is time for you to step up and declare covid death shots a bioweapon.
Unless you are beholden to Big pHarma and the WEF.
"Dr. Boyle provided this affidavit in a Florida case involving an Emergency Petition for a Writ of Mandamus that seeks to compel Governor DeSantis to prohibit the distribution of āCOVID 19 injectionsā, āCOVID 19 nanoparticle injectionsā, and āmRNA nanoparticle injectionsā, in the state of Florida. It also seeks to compel Attorney General Ashley Moody to confiscate the vials."
Good reminder, Jeff. I have long thought the covid fraud was diabolically spiritual in origin as nothing else can explain how nearly universal it was and the fanatic blindness of its adherents. All of whom, in my personal experience, are also stubbornly blind to the Gospel.
True, but to be honest I believe that the majority of "Christians" are not actually born again, saved, Spirit-filled believers, particularly in Western countries where it doesn't cost much to go to church. That may sound provocative or controversial, but I firmly believe that even in the "church" God's people are a remnant. Probably more true for some churches than others.
So true. āEnter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14
Saved IS Spirit filled. To make those things two parts is to judge one VS the other as though they can exist independently and they can NOT! The Son and The Spirit are ONE.
Too many teach that God is doing ANOTHER SPECIAL WORK in them. THEY are extra special, and IF YOU BELIEVE EVEN MORE God will do something MORE special for you too...maybe if you try hard enough. Many need to see the lie. I fell for a time but God...šš¼
There is a new b*llsh*t label for the folks you describe: Carnal Christians. Their mantra is, "I'm already saved so I can do what I like without fear of losing my salvation". These folks have never taken Paul's words in Romans to heart. They also do not understand that every one of our ongoing sins is another burden placed on Jesus' crucified body.
You can't lump all churches or people who attend church together. I was disappointed with some but others held the line and didn't succumb to the tyranny.
We led our church out of deception without the Pastor AFTER the FIRST WEEK. Then they let us go after the Pastor was all š straight and unmasked after a year and a half. And we RAN! Now at a church that fell for ONLY a month and split. Was there even ONE church that didn't split? The wheat and chafing was real and brutal. NEEDED!! But there is MORE WORK to be done! Pray that the Lord of the harvest will bring more workers! šš»
Following Gods commands to truely NOT FEAR! Feed the flock, every Sunday with potluck our family made with one other man. (The Pastor came unhinged.) Led the hymn sing. Made sure the church building was sustained. We answered the calling of Christ. Not sorry for ourselves.
On a separate note, the main reason the Son was sent was to die for the sins of those who put their faith in him. Part of the process was to expose the religious hypocrites who put unnecessary burdens on the people. He (the Father) made Him (the Son) who knew no sin, to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him (the Son). 2 Corinthians 5:21
That's an interesting question. Unfortunately, I would guess there were probably more that went along with the tyranny than did not. And yes there's definitely room for criticism of the church. I just don't like blanket stereotypes.
I'm only aware of a mere handful of Full Gospel, Non-Denominational, and Fundamental churches that stood against the mal-governing authorities' overreach based on mis and dis information; the Adversaries are carefully studying how to counter and break them all at the next opportunity. We should study the Global Church and other Religious responses to the Lockdowns/Masking/Vaxxing Fraud pushed and either swallowed or defeated by those who fought back. The Fake Church of the Global Secular State demands compliance and fealty as the head of the pantheon of gods. How the LDS, JWs, Muhammadans, and many others were infiltrated and swayed by the CoVid Cult is also a lesson to be studied. And let's be real; CoVid bioweapon flu did spread easily and did sicken and kill Christians who ignored the shut-downs and spacing/masking/vaxxing. It also killed Christians who complied with all of those things as well.
Some PCA churches ignored the mandates and continued services, albeit with the six foot spacing between participants. During the first few weeks of the plandemic, none of the congregants came to church, out of fear (not because they were pushed away by our pastor). The service attendees were our pastor, his wife, my wife, and me (streaming video to the folks at home).
My estranged daughter in law is a ā Christian ā. She visited at Christmas. I think she used my very expensive nasal spray prescription for brain damage. I have had tremors since. Sheās jabbed. Her church encouraged it. I told my husband she canāt stay here next time because sheās vaccinated and shedding.
Sheās also been ā cured ā of her bipolar disorder according to her. I saw things differently! Verbally abusive to her husband and ignored( iPad for a 3 year old) her adopted daughter unless she was showing her off
I found a Christian counselor, short term, since she is determined to move to the area. She wanted to park her camper in the driveway while she has a house built. I canāt do that. Our house is accommodating my chronic inflammatory response syndrome . She has no idea what her father has done to accommodate my healing. & she destroyed so much progress in her ignorance and greed. Itās a challenge to handle it since i havenāt been able to forgive her yet. Forgiveness is crucial in my walk with Jesus.
Forgiveness isn't codependent. God calls us to repent before forgiveness. It doesn't lessen Gods love just how He deals with us and consequences are that. Forgiveness is a gift, bought, wrapped, prepared with love and anxious for the time to be given and ACCEPTED but repentance is the sign for the gift giving. Pray. Be ready. Be hopeful.
Agree! Talk about the Powers and Principalities at work! There is definitely a supernatural war being waged, and the last 4 years revealed who would align with the darkness. I have trust issues now, as I'm sure do millions of us who saw through this endless mindfĆck.
And he that sitteth on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true. And he said unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit these things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part shall be in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. Revelation 21:5-8
For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through him. He that believeth on him is not judged: he that believeth not hath been judged already, because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his works should be reproved. But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his works may be made manifest, that they have been wrought in God. John 3:17-19 please read the whole chapter. Ask God to show you His truth. Don't trust men but the Spirit that agitates your natural inclinations for interpretation.
The threat of THE SCIENCE is much larger than just the warped "belief" system infused with morality trick-boxes they unleashed during the plandemic.
It WILL be used again (pandemic or otherwise) .
Why?
The Unholy Trinity of Fear:
1. Fear of losing power by those who wield it
2. Fear of those who are subject to it (reprisal or losing a "benefit/privilege")
3. Fear of those who's livelihood is beholden and justified by those who wield the power (bureaucrats, technocrats, etc.)
Fear of losing something is just as powerful as gaining something - if not more so. So strong it will launch a thousand hideous ships of terror.
Fear will corrupt to the core; even those who's fear is caused by the scourge of power.
And herein lies the real threat:
How we came to two generations that take climate change as unquestionable gospel.
I wonder who would be a bigger zealot in an imaginary crisis:
Someone who thinks you killed grandma or someone who thinks you're killing mother earth?
The level of cruelty that can be justified when people believe in a "moral" crusade is boundless because the beast inside is no longer burdened with the boundaries of empathy.
There is nothing so dangerous as a person or group who believe the ultimate testament of their fidelity to a righteous cause requires acts of cruelty to demonstrate their purity.
Well met, Ryan! Damn. And here in America, the only nation on earth disbarring the government from disarming the free people, they ought to be fearful.
My daughter who is almost 50 decided recently to go back to college for her PhD. They asked for her vaccination records! She told them she did not have them and they suggested she look in her baby book for details or she will have to get revaccinated before attending. Crazy since most of her classes were online. She told them that she will attend school elsewhere.
Now, someone with real balls, needs to argue that the rest of the CDC childhood schedule vaccines āprotecting othersā needs to be cast into doubt, as the compelling evidence points to nutrition, hygiene, and sanitation.
Oh, the science is conflicted? Great. So thereās doubt. Letās start prying at the cracks.
Begging as a mother on behalf of all rational parents everywhere.
I agree completely! Babies today are getting a sickening amount of vaccines before they are even a year old! Way more than 20 years ago even!
Iāve come to the conclusion we need no vaccines. And, the number of shots forced upon children is truly horrifying.
Me three. Mine are grown but if I had to do it again ....
And we have an infant godson who I'm terrified for.
LOVE on that godson, Fred--pour the Holy Spirit love over that child!!
this should get some flames going in the CDC/FDA is conflicted??? story.
Here's chapter 1 of "Turtles All the Way Down, Vaccine Science vs. Myth" FREE online to read and learn what a scam jabcinnes have always been.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eMhzsB_-RT9KFhJcLJFhzJdIgIAou-W8/view
What will you/we learn in the quick 87 pages (all reference sources are also included)? True 'placebos' have never been run on ANY vaccines.
Pharma knows this and has gone to great lengths to prevent them from ever happening (I suspect they've done the studies and know, and therefore don't want the unwanted truth to come out).
Enjoy, learn and pass along
I am downloading it to a thumb drive right now, Walking--many, many thanks!
Circle back when you are done with chapter 1, and I will pursue finding you chapters 2 through nine. Best.
It'll be awhile until I get back with you - this is very 'heavy' content - won't 'read' like a novel--LOL!!
Let me know if you have any questions as this is an area where I have completed coursework to better understand the lunacy of this entire Mafioso business.
Ditto.
Dr Mercola agrees with you
(Long time follower of Mercola. He was my āgatewayā into understanding health.)
I learned about Dr. Mercola while walking my little rescue Maltese in a local park back in 2013 (from a fellow dog walker whose dog's issues were helped by the holistic veterinarian, Dr. Becker, who partners with Dr. Mercola - and have followed his essays and use his supplements as the Spirit leads me to do so. Good man!!
"holistic veterinarian, Dr. Becker"
Does Dr. Becker have thoughts/solutions to canine cancer?
Treating mine with IVM currently but always looking out for extra input/help/suggestions/tools that have helped.
https://Fenbendazole.org and
https://fenbendazole.substack.com
are two locations I frequent.
Walking...I just checked Dr. Karen Becker's website and she does not post her "essays" on her website - I signed up to receive her newsletters once again (I had unsubscribed a few years ago because I didn't have the time to read them anymore). I imagine if you contacted her by e-mail she would answer any and all questions you have--she's that kind of "mensch"!! Here's a link to her website anyway: https://drkarenbecker.com/dvm/
Excellent sites to follow, not just for pets, but for us humans as well!
I will check our Dr. Becker's website and send you any helpful links I discover, Walking!! Hang tight - (smile)!!
Go Mercola! No jabs no seed oils no leaky gut.Thank you Dr.
Dr. Mercola was my "go-to" for years but lately something seems to be amiss with him. I don't know what is going on but I am a bit skeptical when I hear things like he is consulting with a psychic. I do see a difference in him. I just pray that he is ok.
Kathryn I agree that something is amiss with Dr. Mercola. I am more and more uncomfortable reading the content of his daily articles. He has changed his stance on so many of his previous held health positions. It just unsettles me.
I love Dr. Mercola and am so grateful for all I have learned from him. A few days ago I watched this video related to what has been going on with Dr. Mercola. I recommend watching it rather than reading it to gain a better understanding. Click on the arrow to listen to Barbara Fisher talk. So heartbreaking! I really hope he will be ok.
https://www.nvic.org/newsletter/may-2024/defending-freedom-of-religion
I agree with you CitizenA. I started noticing a difference in his health positions since last winter, and not just one or two, but so many that I found it unsettling, and a red flag was raised.
I keep hearing that but his newsletter seems fine to me. Same great info.
I haven't seen anything glaringly different in Dr. Mercola's newsletters that I receive - mostly they come through bi-weekly or monthly. What is 'changing' in his advice because I haven't noticed it.
Heās changed his stance on carbs and keto diets, but explains very well his reasons for the change. I happen to agree with his new approach to that area. I still glean good information from his articles, and also from the commenters on his articles. I take what is useful to me, and ignore anything that doesnāt apply. I think thatās all we can do, no matter the source. If thereās one thing weāve learned over the last 4 years, itās be skeptical of everything and do your own research!
BINGO - your mindset mimics mine, JudyC!!
I just finished reading today's C & C. Jeff's notes from his presentation at the NACL would be a "useful" sermon at any congregation where those in attendance are searching for an explanation of what happened and is happening to us.
SPOT ON - would definitely be better than some of the 'lightweight' sermons being preached in so-called "Christian" congregations - would give the attendees some real "meat" to chew on. Time to put away the "pablum" and get on to the REAL menu!!
I'm not a close follower of his, but I suggest that anything he recommends that came as a result of consulting with his psychic should be avoided at all costs.
Interesting news from the National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) re Dr. Mercola.
https://www.nvic.org/newsletter/may-2024/defending-freedom-of-religion
Yep, although I have never really cared for Mercola, I did realize that he was right a good bit of the time. But lately....I'm personally not going down that path and hope he comes to his senses soon....
next step: there are no virus* correction: no virus has ever actually been shown to exist. they appear to have always been the fraud invention that opens the door to vaccines.
Drs Sam and Mark Bailey for much more info https://www.spreaker.com/episode/episode-435-a-farewell-to-virology-with-guest-dr-mark-bailey--51376779
I may be a lone dissenter here, but when you say viruses donāt exist to people, thatās when you start to lose them and their eyes begin to glaze over and they begin to think crazy conspiracy theorist and they tune out anything else you have to say and disregard anything you had said before. If there are no viruses (and I really donāt care if you call them viruses or something else) then explain what causes measles, mumps, hepatitis, Ebola, Covid, etc
If you tell me Covid wasnāt real, the many people who experienced it firsthand would beg to differ. I have never been as sick as I was with Covid (and no I did not get the shot) and it was totally different than any typical flu Iāve had before. I lost my sense of smell and it took over a year for it to come back. Iām not saying it rose to the level of a pandemic, but there was something different going around, and I donāt think it necessarily helps the ācauseā to say viruses donāt exist until youāre prepared to offer an alternative to what has made someone sick other than āoh, itās the 5Gā, or āitās just your body detoxingā, or āits really past traumas just coming to the surfaceā.
To be clear though, I am against any and all vaccines and pretty much every other pharmaceutical product and allopathic medicine in general, because I donāt think āscientistsā are anywhere close to smart enough to have a detailed understanding of how the human body actually functions, to be able to develop something that will not have unintended and potentially devastating consequences.
I feel like I could have written this word for word. I'm ready to entertain the thought that there are no "viruses" but until a reasonable explanation is provided for how illnesses clearly move from person to person, I feel like it's just a semantics game. Our family stopped ALL shots over 12 years ago. We are all very healthy and rarely get sick - but with 4 kids, usually when one catches something, it does move through at least one or 2 other kids. We never tested for Covid, but we most definitely had it at least twice. The first time, I had to use literally everything in my holistic toolbox to get well and I remember thinking that any other person would likely have needed significant allopathic treatment to overcome it. Our family actually traveled full-time during the majority of the pandemic - and ironically, only had "covid" while visiting our homebase. It was quite interesting to live a life of such freedom while watching so many people succumb to the narrative and live life trapped in their homes.
I wrote this a few weeks back. I made it as short and concise as possible about what viruses are, and what they are not.
It's the most reasonable explanation I found about ten years ago and I've been using the knowledge to prove it to myself and my family ever since. It's solid.
https://ariaveritas.substack.com/p/spells-of-covid-and-the-viral-illusion
Two readings of your article lead me to ask:
Are all of mankind's diseases self-inflicted, the result of poor nutrition, low levels of physical activity, environmental toxins, and/or fear?
I'm led to believe yes, more or less.
BEAUTIFUL - you're using the "truth tool" I just explained in my "comment" today concerning the "reality of viruses". Danke, Aria Veritas!!
Nice article, thanks for linking.
Covid ... real or not real?
Amazingly, all other causes of disease magically disappeared in 2020. Everything was Covid, Covid, Covid no matter what one caught or got. Ask anyone what they got and it was Covid and nothing else. This held true whether it was death certificates, hospital admissions, visits to local masked man pretending to be a doctor. So, to sum. Some people got real sick from something. Some did not. The people who got real sick from something called it 'covid' ... and the people who got sick with other things also called it 'covid'. So everyone got sick with 'covid' whether they did or not. Like Shakespeare said, "What is there in a name?"
By the way Russia, Russia, Russia is not Russia ... nor the Ukraine for that matter. Russia, Russia, Russia might be code for the United States, and only by some stretch of the imagination. But I would not know because I like mostly in the real world, even though this causes problems for me.
Yup. Even the guy who crashed his motorcycle in the LA Freeway and died because of his injuries didn't really sustain any life-thretening ijuries. He died of the covid thing, and the hospital, as a Big Prize" for ticking the correct box on the "cause of deah" form, got a bonus if $40K.
See how that works? Dangle a bit of gelt in front of an hospital administrator/money-man, and there IS no other cause of death than the Woo Flew.
Died 'with covid' was the same as died from covid.
What a scam!
Exactly. How would someone even know they had 'covid' when the tests are so nonsensical. There was so much obfuscation.
How easily people do themselves in by uncritically consenting to employ the terms their masters serve up them, and thereby unwitting consent towards furthering their own self-destruction. Covid, Long Covid ... empty of content.
I am glad to see that this bothers a few other people as much as it does me.
And influenza justā¦.disappeared. Both are in the same family of viruses. Why was this fact ignored?
Karen, nancylee is correct that pathogenic viruses don't exist, though the way I prefer to say it is "those particles scientists call viruses have never been proven to do what they claim." The basic truth to understand is that Terrain Theory is backed up by science; Germ Theory is not. Here is an excellent video discussing this topic:
https://odysee.com/@TruthVault:0/The-End-of-Germ-Theory:b
Each of the diseases you listed do have other possible causes, all of the causes falling into one of two categories--toxins (bad food, water, air, EMF, etc.) or lack of something (insufficient vitamins, minerals, proteins, sunshine, contact with the earth, contact with other humans, etc.).
There are many great books that discuss the above in detail. I recommend Can You Catch a Cold? (Roytas), Virus Mania (Kohnlein, et. al.), The Contagion Myth (Cowan, Morrell), or The Invisible Rainbow (Firstenburg).
thanks for correcting my comment. the honest virologists say that virus have never been proven to exist. I'll be more careful in future.
I donāt agree or disagree with your statement or the linked videos assertion that viruses donāt exist. I simply donāt know as I am no expert. As I said in my original comment, I donāt necessarily care what it is called, terrain theory, germ theory, etc. My main concern is what I experience and observe firsthand. I donāt believe even our most intelligent scientists and doctors, including the ones you mentioned, have a clear and complete understanding of the complex and wonderful design that is our bodies and their interactions with the world around us. Only our Creator has that understanding and we are much better off to look to nature, which He provided for things to cure what ails us.
I believe this is backed up by the fact that I canāt think of a single disease that allopathic medicine has cured (but maybe I have missed something). Pretty much without exception, pharmaceuticals have unintended and undesirable consequences, at least in some people. Therefore, I think it is in everybodyās best interests to not only question the efficacy, or lack thereof, of any and all vaccines but also any and all pharmaceuticals (but no, I am not recommending someone discontinue all their prescriptions, this post does not constitute medical advice lest someone report me to the FDA).
When someone just throws out āviruses donāt existā it goes against many peopleās experiences and observations and it doesnāt move the needle in the vaccine or Covid debate, because many people experienced something that caused them or loved ones to be ill or possibly die. Call it Covid or call it the normal seasonal flu or something else but it was something. Iām not buying that it was 5G, an individualās past or current traumas, stress, our psyche, or just our bodies normal detoxification process, all of which I have seen posited.
In my opinion, the debate should be, assuming for arguments sake that Covid exists, did the government have the authority to suspend our God given rights that are delineated in the Constitution and to require people be masked, distanced and injected with unsafe, ineffective substances? For me that would be a hard no.
Your not alone in your dissent.

No Covid vax in our home
My daughter came home sick w Covid. Next day I had it. Two days later other two kids sick. I was really sick, I took a week off work, first sick time for me in over ten years. It was three more weeks before I was really able to function well.
When the tests are so ridiculous, how would you know if you guys had covid? Flu can do similar reactions.
Not throwing shade, just asking questions.
Thatās a great question, although influenza is from a virus also. I also reject the validity of those tests in that they cycled them so many times that they certainly got a huge number of false positives. But if thatās true they shouldnāt miss an actual positive case. Iām not defending the Covid test they were designed to make everything seem worse for the masses and they worked very well for that.
Iām not a flu expert, I think Iāve had it a couple of times in my life, three maybe four times, Iām 61 years old.
When I think of flu I think of headache, fever, throwing up, bodyaches. What I had was much worse than that. I did not take a test and neither did my other two kids, my first kid that came home with it was required by their employer to take a test and they came out positive and they in fact had the same common symptoms, that is loss of taste, loss of smell etc. I did not lose taste or smell but suddenly cold water or any cold beverage tasted horrible to me. I could only drink room temperature water. That lasted for well over a year. I live in Florida I work outside all day every day and I could not have ice water because I simply couldnāt drink it - it tasted so bad to me. I also had other strange symptoms, I felt like there was twisted reinforcement bar writhing in my gut. It hurt so bad Iāve never experienced anything like that before, but the worst symptoms of all was exhaustion. It was awful that I felt better physically (after Hydroxychloroquine ) but I couldnāt hardly get out of a chair. I felt fine no fever no nothing but I couldnāt do anything, fortunately that in my job Iām the boss and I was able to assign work and just lay low because otherwise I wouldāve had to take two or three additional weeks off because I just really couldnāt do anything besides show up.
I lost my sense of smell without getting Covid or being sick from anything. I also lost it every time I've had a cold. I don't think it's related to Covid (if there even is a covid). I just think we were poisoned. That would explain a nursing home out in the middle of nowhere getting it before anyone else. Say what? How did old people who never go anywhere, without visitors, get decimated by "covid"? Anecdotal "evidence" by people who say "I was never so sick... " well every year, someone has a bad flu that they were 'never so sick' from. This has happened anecdotally to me for 3 years running. Not that I was sick but that someone I worked with, am related to, or friends with got the flu and "it was the worst flu I ever had." I am guessing that that's how our memory works - we don't remember how bad the last flu was when we get the next one. The present one is always going to be the worst, esp. the older we get.
Yup there are no unique symptoms for convid, it's other diseases relabeled.
A 'virus' is a biological program designed to go in to action the very second a psychological problem is perceived. Say you were told you had cancer and had six months to live - Heaven forbid. That shock is registered in the brain IMMEDIATELY. The psyche is not biological, but the brain is. The brain's shock is relayed to a specific organ. For a death fright one will develop lung cancer (so-called). For a separation shock one will develop a skin cancer. There is a biological law involved.
The shock can be seen on a CT scan as a ring.
I wrote about it once if you have the inclination.

The point is, a virus is a biological program for a specific section of the body.
Karen, you urgently need to watch this video, I'm certain it is the most important one you can watch today:
https://www.facebook.com/reel/1199911197683272
Anyone else reading this post, please watch it, and share it, its only 7 minutes.
Daniel, I don't click on links that I don't know what they are. If you give a brief description of what the video is, you might get more people who will watch it.
Okay, no problem. The video is of David Martin, the founding chairman of M Cam asset management company (and American patent auditing expert), at an International Covid Summit organized by the European Parliament in Brussels in May 2023, In it he states that the US was responsible for the making of both coronaviruses causing the outbreaks of severe acute respiratory syndrome - or SARS - in 2003 and the Covid-19 pandemic in the past three years., He discusses, with clarity, how the corona "virus" is a man made "virus" that is the result of manipulation begun in 1965. He provides the "receipts" and many more facts of which everyone should be aware. It was simply 7 stunning minutes of information to me. Its a crime against humanity for which there must be full accountability.
He was trying to find at least on Stateās Attorney General back in Jan. 2021, on that infamous day, when he stood in front of the Senate building and read a list of statutes broken by the manufacture of the jab. I am surprised he hasnāt been derailed like Reiner Fuellmich in Germany.
I think everyone can now understand why this information has been censored and hidden from us. At least it was hidden from me since I just found out about it this week and wanted to share it as widely as I possibly could. Some Attorney General somewhere (Paxton in TX?) needs to conduct a full investigation, empanel a grand jury and start bringing indictments. Our federal government, giant pharmaceuticals, media, etc., are all in cover up mode.
I WILL PRAY THIS HAPPENS, Daniel - I hope you can share that information in a different link other than a Facebook one - perhaps a Substack article??
I hope everyone shares it Sharon. I hope our great friend Jeff Childers shares it since his voice is massively larger than mine.
so whether naturally occuring or man made from the start, a virus IS a thing.
No question the virus responsible for the covid madness IS a real thing. I've seen a number of solid pieces of evidence detailing HOW that particular corona virus was adopted as the starting point then manipulated/modified to become what is now called SARS CoV 2, after spending illions of OUR tx dollars to develop the final product. I've seen solid evidence tracing the origins and pathway tp the current version of it.
Tio, I'm surprised that is your takeaway. The far bigger issue is that they conducted the pLandemic against the people of the world - truly, a crime against humanity - and so far have completely gotten away with it. And not only that but in the US, they also changed the way we vote, without our consent, so they could manipulate and steal the election, not against Trump but against the people. And now we have an un-elected puppet and an administration doing immense damage, not only to the USA but the world - and so far have completely gotten away with it.
Danil your pons are valid and yet do not take away anything from MY point. I have read extensively on how the virus was designed and released (there are three plausible pathways to have ben followed from the point the virus itself was gain-of-function modified from its natural state, it is highly probable a combination was used to get it "out there"). Sraightaway our gummit's "response" was so obviously preplanned, the narrative already fully formed, the dithering by those "responsible" to act in such "situations". the lawfare that brought in mandates, crazy "prescriptions", the banning of anything even remotely a potential cure or adjuvant. ALL the pieces "happened" to be ready and primed within days of it being "found" in public.
HAD the Nürenberg Convention and tue US lw arisong directly from that been cited and ENFORCED nationwide, NO ONE could have been forced to slap oin those wretched mug nappies.. those devices are a "medical device" and canno be forced upon anyone. Hydrochloroquine is known to be VERY helpful in treatment of similar viral diseases. It was denied general use, again contra Nürenberg I have studied the precise mechanism by which ths drug prohibits the proliferation/replication of viral particles in humans. Simpel direct, known. But, contra Nürenberg, denied by our gummit poohbahs, illegally. Two long time dear friends of mine were in Nicaragua durong the nonsense, both got the covid. They were brought to "good" hosptials hich applied the US mandated "cure: go home, rest, take lots of fluids, and come back if it gets worse. They did it did they did...within a few days they put both of them on ventilators, they were both gone Home within a week. What made me FURIOUS is that any ten year old kid in Nicaragua can take the equivalent of about three dollars fifty, walk into any farmÔcia and in a coule of minutes walked back out with large supply of HCQ, gone back to their houses and cured them.
Enacting mandates conditioning your employment, membership in an organisation or school, ability to freely move about s you would upon taking that UNTESTED unproven experimental injection is directly counter to US law based upon the Nürenberg Protocls.
That ONE THING could have been deployed and used to end the entire madness, all mandates, experimental shots, prohibitions against proven medical treatments, and ended the pandemic within a few weeks.
NOW do you understand a bit more from where I am coming on "Nürenberg? The LAW is there, it ws scrupulously IGNORED, locked up and not mentioned in the general discussion regarding this manufactured scam.
My apologies, I was VERY pressed for time this morning and had not expected to find THIS topic addressed today. Hope I've been able to 'splain muh sewf a bit better.
Karen,
This might not 'directly' answer your question 'do viruses actually exist', but this article tackles the timelines of what was "Covid" and was it in fact a virus, or an airborne toxin emitted around the world simultaneously (think chem-trails as most are sprayed around humans, not out at sea where they'd have a better chance of really deflecting the sun's rays), but take a gander and let us know your thoughts. Complicated, I know.
https://sanityunleashed.substack.com/p/its-all-in-the-timeline
I agree -The virus or whatever covid is was made in a lab and is a bioweapon. The doctors treating the spike damaged know this. Others who deny itās an issue just donāt know.
I totally agree with your consensus on "spouting off" to those who are SO ASLEEP they may never awaken. Perhaps couching the "virus discussion" with this phrase, "since science ALWAYS QUESTIONS medical discoveries, there have been NEW evidence to dispute the 'theory of viruses' their origin and modalities" or something on that order. THEN...you can share what you have learned from the TRUTH-SEEKING scientists whose work you trust.
Amen! Well said š
I totally agree with everything you say. I get a little tired of people saying covid was/is just a cold because I've never had a "cold" like that before. No taste/smell and the fatigue was off the charts. I could barely make it across the room. I've had walking pneumonia before and I thought that was hell. It was a walk in the park compared to covid. So it drives me nuts when people claim that there are no viruses. Then tell us exactly what we had. Also I'm not jabbed.
Exactly, I had the same experience. It took me a month to feel like myself again and that only happened after I had several Vitamin C infusions. Even then, I couldnāt smell anything for a year and a half., hardly typical cold or flu symptoms.
I was lucky the smell and taste came back after a couple of months but the fatigue took weeks. I also developed a sinus infection probably from the nasty mask wearing. I've never had any kind of infection requiring antibiotic in my life and I'm 63. It all basically felt like all out war on my body. I thank God I've kept in shape with a lot of exercise and a low carb diet. I'm glad you are better. š
How do you know it was covid? Aren't the tests known for scamming?
Perhaps it was the flu? The CDC reported the flu somehow dissipated, as they were simply counting flu cases as covid cases.
Just asking questions...
You are not the lone dissenter, that is for certain.
Just because the official story regarding vaxxes is a lie doesn't mean every crackpot youtube "influencer" theory is true. Most of these people are either nuts, pushing crazy schemes for clicks, or chaos agents. Don't discount the last one as Pharma loves the "no virus" people as they make all pharma critics look nutty by association. It's similar to how the Flat Earth people are used to ridicule those who question the moon landings (based on solid evidence).
Obviously aspects of the terrain theory are true, people in poor health get sick easier. But that can be true and viruses still real, they aren't mutually exclusive. But these people play on humans inability to think in nuanced terms and propensity to swing to one extreme or the other. Hence they fall for every pied piper that comes down the pike.
Sasha Laptyova wrote a stack on this subject this week you may find interesting...
same here. I will watch the video but think it is a bridge too far for most, certainly me as I was SICKER WITH COVID (no jab) than ever before in my life.
Interestingly, I watched a video with Dr. Mercola and Suzanne Humphries. They both seem to believe in viruses because of childhood diseases like measles and chickenpox. These are contagious and then people donāt get them again. Most develop immunity. Unlike colds & flu that we get multiple times and are a lot of times very similar.
I donāt fully believe colds and flus are contagious as most times in our household we donāt catch or pass on one anotherās illness. I have slept in the same bed with my husband for 39 years through all our colds & few flus and we never passed one to the other.
I do believe more investigating needs to be done.
Correct! The link you sent is good; Sam and Mark are warriors, as are Dr. Cowan, Dr. Kaufman, Stefan Lanka, and others. The science is on the side of terrain theory, not germ theory. Here's another excellent video that comprehensively explains the failures of germ theory:
https://odysee.com/@TruthVault:0/The-End-of-Germ-Theory:b
Thank for this podcast link. Heads up to others⦠you have to listen to an intro thatās about 20-30 min. before the interview with Mark Bailey. The sound clip with Del Bigtree is one I have not heard before. He thinks the no virus theory should be ignored for now. He thinks that heāll get more open listeners in government if the focus is vaccines are harmfull.
I agree. this "science" is completely corrupted by $$$$$
Right there with you. Like Dr. Peter McCullough said, 'vaccines are not the free lunch we thought they were. ' How succinct and accurate that has turned out to be. I think the long slow slide for the vaccine manufacturers has begun.
Trust Nature to sort things out.
True. The US has the highest infant mortality rate in the developed world, and has worse rates than quite a few semi-developed countries.
78 or 79 doses of assorted āvaccinesā by the time theyāre 18! In the 60ās it was 3, in the 80ās something like 13. And we wonder why there is such a surge in autism, ADHD, autoimmune disease, etc! People can argue all day long about whether vaccines cause autism, for instance, but for the love of God, who in their right mind cannot see that pumping kids with 79 doses of ANYTHING is going to cause problems!
JudyC your right, no one needs to wonder. Autism, ADHD &autoimmune disease, is caused by vaccine. Period.
And allergies, I would not be surprised about that being linked to vaccines either.
Peanut š„ most definitely..like RFKJR says, we boomers knew NO one with such an allergy. Peanut butter and jelly was a staple for every child!
Allergies too RL. The 4 Aās- Allergies, asthma, Autism and ADHD are all caused by vaccination per the Vaxxed vs Unvaxxed research and book by Dr. Brian Hooker and Dr. Paul Thomas.
50% of children today suffer from some chronic medical/mental conditionā¦all due to the Vaxx schedule.
Yes RL lots of evidence that the explosion of peanut allergies was linked to a vaccine adjuvant derived from something to do with peanuts...
And so many other allergies too, dairy, soy, eggs, tree nuts, so many that were basically unheard of until relatively recently.
And all foods that are rich in protein and vital for building a healthy body.
Add fruit due to latex.
And cancers, and neurological disordersā¦and on and on!
Indeed š
Austism absolutely has to be. There is one common denominator: vaccines.
You know who's the only candidate who has called this vaccine schedule into question?
RFK Jr.
That's the ONLY topic on which I agree with him.
Does that mean you are in favor of the US ruling elites' endless wars around the world? The deep state and social media's surveillance and censorship regimes? Serious questions.
Trump was so against endless wars that he didn't start any, the first President in a long time, for that, and of course he really doesn't like the deep state or surveillance and censorship, being their chief target for some time now.
I give him credit for not beginning new conflicts.
If he would say anything about going to war with the surveillance state, I'd give him a lot more credit.
Sometimes, in warfare, it's best not to tell your enemy what you plan, especially if they still have you tangled in the legal system with a possible (functionally) life sentence.
Fair enough. But with his participation with the swamp (in direct contradiction to his campaign promises) I'm not going to assume he's learned a damn thing.
Bottom line, he's either stupid and inept, or he's in bed with the deep state.
I believe the latter is more likely, though it could be some of both.
Would Soros and his puppets be doing all this to him IFthat were the case?
Not deep state for sure, or it wouldnāt be so committed to destroying him. Narcissistic to a fault, yes, but he truly cares about šŗšø. Not a unquestioning fan, but sane folks have no choice in 2024. RFK canāt win in our electoral system, and if it goes to the House, who do you think theyāll choose, regardless of who has the majority. Trust me, it wouldnāt be a R or RFK.
Hello!!! he's a committed ZIONIST supporting the WORST excesses - GENOCIDE- in Gaza. doesnt sound too anti war to me.
Oh, that's our greatest ally, who we have to pay billions to every year, and it's a crime in many places to criticize them, even though they hate you.
Please read his full stance. It is not what he began with, I believe is not what you are thinking.
I have researched RFK very carefully. What is it that you think we don't know?
He was against vaccines. He has changed his feelings/thoughts on them. Sorry unable to post where I read this but it woke me up. I felt at the time reasonable report, perhaps need to search. It was in his own words.
He is not anti-vaccine. He has stated this many times.
Yes he hasā¦
he's against the lack of TESTING in Vaxes and if I remember correctly, MANDATES, masks, 6 ft bs etc.
Lack of testing is total BSā¦even they were ātestedā they wouldnāt be āsafe or effectiveā.
Thank goodness I'm not alone here.
Never! your FB buddy here :)
Which I admired him for at the time. Unfortunately, RFK is a staunch supporter of the genocide in Palestine.
There is no Palestine.
By which do you mean, supporter of Israel?
Another warmonger state who we are stuck paying billions of dollars to each year. All for the fun of being subverted by them.
Such simplistic thinking. Helps you hold onto your prejudices?
He hired the pres of the Zionists of America to his campaign
Lynn, posted below/here regards CHD. Perhaps that is where I read his true stance on vaxxines.
yup! cant get around it.
Anyone hoping to become President will be a supporter of Israel.
It is complicated. This country will always stand with them having a right to exist, though they are heavy handed in their retaliation.
who is this "we", white lady?
I will never support the evil state of Israel, created by the Illuminati in Britain early 1900's Balfour Declaration to set Jews (not even jews, but Ashkenazi descended from KHAZARIANS- some of our REAL enemies) against Arabs (the REAL semites, btw.
its time to stop funding the MASS SLAUGHTER IN ISRAEL. cut them OFF.
I stand with Israel and their right to exist without fear.
Fine, write all the checks you want.
But Christian nations should give them a penny.
Can we take care of our own people first?
This has nothing to do with money. Given the backstabbing the United States has done to Israel throughout the decades, I would be happy to see all ties cut between our two countries. And I believe it is the United States that would suffer most for the loss of that alliance.
The Jewish people are the most brilliant and industrious in the world. Do you really not believe the U.S. has benefited from an alliance with that brain trust? A true financial reckoning of the relationship would look very different from what youāve been led to believe.
Check out pulseofisrael.com. The Israeli people want answers from their military and intelligence leaders about their cooperation with the U.S. in attempts to harm, marginalize and maybe exterminate Israel. They realize the war they are fighting is both external and internal. They are learning to trust God.
For the first time, I saw expressed suspicion about the role of Nixon and Kissinger in the Yom Kippur War in 1973. The sabotage has been ongoing for a very long time.
Thereās far more to the story than meets the eye. Donāt accept the simplistic, slogan laden, terrorists supporting version.
Hitler is so proud.
RFK Jr. is not āanti-vaxxā per se. CHD has come out against the āchildhood vaccine scheduleā and the EUA mRNA āshotsā.
That is light years beyond Trump and Biden.
I have many reservations about RFK - I've never voted for a non-GOP candidate) but he's literally the only one raising questions about Fauci and the link between autism and other diseases and the childhood vax schedule.
Unlike Trumpers, I don't just assume a candidate believes what he says.
What's his stance on the trans agenda and the Green New Deal/green-washing, ESG an DEI?
What's Trump's?
No idea - and why are you asking about Trump? I'm asking about RFK, Jr.
his wife is a Hollywood Zionist. not much better than Jared Kushner's perverted stance, selling gazan beach real estate while children are still Bleeding on it.
RFK Jr is also against pesticide poisoning of our croplands, although (being a lifelong Democrat) he plans to use the police powers of big government to reach his goals:
https://www.dtnpf.com/agriculture/web/ag/blogs/ag-policy-blog/blog-post/2024/04/02/rfk-jrs-plan-weaponize-regulators
RFK is a socialist and a lawyer.
And Trump is serial cheat who has refused to pay 100's of contractors he hired.
He's also a liar (remember "lock her up?)
He's also so incredibly incompetent that he hired Epstein associate Barr, who contemptuously ignored Trump and ran out the clock without doing a damn thing.
He also, of course, hired hundreds of deep state people from the swamp, and gave them power to run his administration.
He was so inept that he couldn't keep his promises to build the wall.
I could go on ad nauseum, but I'll just suffice it to say, we've all been voting GOP for decades. We've listened to GOP leaders (eg. Trey Gowdy, Lindsey Graham, and hundreds of others) promise to right the constitutional ship, cut spending, reduce the deficit, close the borders, etc. and not a DAMN bit of progress has been made.
At some point, you have to at least wonder "Are we being played?"
You know, folks keep claiming that he didnāt pay employees. Any evidence Iāve found was only when the work was so substandard as to require extensive revision.
As for ālock her up,ā not pursuing that was the right decision. We DO NOT need more politicization and divisiveness. Does t make him a liar.
Does he say things at rallyās to play to his base? Surely. They all do.
Did you even bother to look at the resistance he faced at every single turn??? Yet he accomplished much; itās there if you care to look. And I can personally vouch for many miles of new border wall in CA and AZ.
It was JB who immediately cancelled it, at terrific losses to taxpayers, and left huge piles of pre-constructed segments left to rust near Florence, AZ. Photos at your request.
If you think RFK, as much as there is to like about him, has a chance in heck to win this election, I implore you to review carefully the different States and Federal rules of the electoral college. And maybe review Perot - not a single electoral vote; not a single State.
Spoken like a cultist.
There are literally hundreds of people that Trump stiffed just because he knew he could.
Like the guy who supplied grand pianos to Trump's casino.
Like the little girls chorus he hired to sing at a 2016 campaign rally.
Like the contractor whose friends warned him not to do business with Trump, but he did anyway because he needed the business.
That last example, when Trump didn't pay, he sold all his business vehicles to satisfy his subcontractors. Then he committed suicide.
Trump is a thief and a liar, and an adulterer.
But just as Trump himself said, no matter what evil he commits, his cultist supporters will make excuses for him.
Hahaha! Iām not even a big fan. Please post some reputable sources for your claims. Youāve gotta agree that weāve endured more than our share of media and social media falsehoods recently.
He's got a bad case of the ol' TDS.
š Nailed it!
we had this discussion a few days ago and came to the conclusion that rumor is likely not true.
Sorry, Liz - what rumor?
Trump has a lot more money than RFK that he earned by building stuff people wanted to buy.
The Kennedy family are socialists who acquired their wealth in the stock market and joining with the socialist democrats.
RFK is a 'liberal' lawyer and never created wealth.
TDS poster child.
Wiser voices with a longtime inside access tell us that Trump's choices for many key positions had to be blessed by Mitch "The Turtle" McConnell.
So McConnell was in charge?
More evidence of Trump's complete ineffectiveness.
I'm convinced that Trump was completely clueless at how the Executive Office works together with Congress.
TDS
Yes, but admitting it is the first step to recovery.
Good for you.
Who are you looking for as a savior to put into in the WH? I'm not looking for anyone to put there myself.
It's scary how so many people are looking to just one man to pin all their hopes on. The USA was meant to be a constitutional republic. But many want it to become a monarchy. They want a king who will lead them into battle because they no longer view God as sufficient.
Are you voting for Caligula? Well then you must be a Nero supporter. Neither. I don't want ANY emperor. The executive branch of our federal government was never meant to be a throne. And I have read comments by MAGA zealots talking about setting up Trump's sons as potential heirs after he dies.
Always refreshing to see another TDS knee-jerker pipe up. LOL.
Head of HHS? Sec of State? Sad that he cannot possibly get to 270 electoral votes. Impossible. Some States donāt have to honor their voterās preferences, but thatās a fairly minor issue. I donāt trust the House to decide the election, so please pick a side for 2024 and donāt send us down that rabbit hole.
How many 28 year olds are even going to know that when they enroll their kids in school?
Not many I reckon. Little "Tommy" will be getting his shot 90% of the time.
Something wicked this way comes.
Ya, especially my former compatriots north of the border. They are devoid of questionable thoughts. Itās as if the past four years hadnāt happened.
Not my grandkids cuz Iāve been educating my own kids on the vaccine and medical fallacies for years!šš¼
Are your grandkids homeschooled? I imagine they are, because you have to be seriously vaxxed up according to the Childhood Vaccine Schedule, to attend public (an a number of private schools) in most states. Very few states allow for any āexemptionsā to āthe scheduleāā¦California NO exemptions! The majority of people who choose to not vaccinate their kids who live in CA, have been into homeschooling them for many years.
Actually, most states have some form of exemption. I think there are only 5 that have no exemption or only medical exemptions. The other 45 states have at least a religious exemption and a portion of those have a philosophical exemption as well. The schools will not offer up this information, you have to find it yourself.
Trueā¦but California allows ZERO exemptions. Thatās one of the MANY reasons people are leaving CA!
Oh yeah... Richard Pan, who rakes in the dough from pHarma companies, has done a real job on California. He is a total piece of work.
For sureā¦Dr. Pan is evil personified and a total tool of Big Pharma.
The CDC knows vaccines cause autism. Itās been 10 years and Congress still hasnāt subpoenaed the CDC Whistleblower Dr. William Thompson. Pharmawhore Dr. Julie Gerberding became the President of the Vaccine Division at Merck for shredding the documents of the study the CDC performed, which showed a 260% increase in black male babies regressing into autism after the MMR. So, hereās a perfect example of a lack of transparency.
When I worked with autistic children in the public school system (retired in 2018), the vast majority were black males. Females of all races were probably less than 10% of that population.
So it would seem that black male children were most vulnerable. And for some reason, female children were a lot less affected.
It was discovered that black females were more susceptible to adverse reactions to the DPT vaccine by Dr. Aaby in Guinea -Bissau when he was able to look at his records comparing vaccinated to unvaccinated. The Highwire reported this sometime in 2019.
Brian Hooker MD wrote a book called "Evidence of Harm" that discussed studies that showed that young black males were much more likely to develop issues from the MMR if they had it before the age of 3 than any other demographic. The CDC made him throw that data away.
Black babies, eh? Margaret Sanger (Hillary's idol) is applauding in hell.
The "vaccines" have nothing to do with health, they make us un-healthy. But they do make the giant pharmaceuticals and their captured "government regulators" immensely wealthy, with our tax dollars and those of virtually every country on the planet. Human cockroach mr fauci and his underlings in NIAID, and others in NIH, CDC, etc made hundreds of millions of dollars in royalty payments. WTF??? How are civil servants allowed to make millions in royalties off the pharmaceutical companies they are supposed to regulate to protect us?
Same way our elected officials are allowed to engage in insider trading, or get paid $900,000 for a forthcoming book dealā¦.
The bipartisan Bayh-Dole Act is the culprit.
Can't imagine why it was bipartisan?? Perhaps because all of the uniparty dems and rinos steal from us like bandits!
In 1982 when my first child was born, it was 7.
that's what i thought. i was born in 71'. I think it may have been less than that back in the day.
I was born in 1960. 1971 is the year they lined us up at school and gave us a shot. I donāt know what it was. I wonder if it was a measles booster because soon after I had my left eardrum burst and I failed all the school hearing tests. All the little kids getting tubes in their ears is tied to the MMR.
born in 52 I remember 3 during my entire childhood. Polio, MMR, and maybe one other.
When I was born in 1952, there were no vaccines at birth and I think I got the Diphtheria/Tetanus and Polio. Thatās it.
Born 1947. Ditto those two. Being a Pittsburgher, I was in one of the early trial groups for Jonas Salk's jab. Got it in a building which is now part of the UPMC complex. I bear a faint ring-shaped scar on my upper arm to this day from the Salk vax.
Smallpox vaccine left that scar.
I like that āvaccine cultā is a good name and or āvaccine worshippersā for sure. They sure love throwing around the label of āanti-vax ā if you donāt believe in jabbing.
Covidians.
Vaccinators!
This can only be a Vaccine Cult, a form of worship where medical self-flagellation is obligatory. Some people are attracted to this cult because they like metal objects hanging on their bodies because it gives them a warm fuzzy feeling, something like light up Christmas trees fulsome with sparkling Christmas balls.
You may think my scribbling here a tad bizarre. But I assure you! It is not ... and no more bizarre than the people who saw Mr. Covid lurking around every corner, twist and turn of their pathways. Ah yes! The Ubiquitous Mr. Covid. He is Everywhere.
ššŖ
Other countries children donāt have the allergies or autoimmune issues kids here have. Vax schedule !
My only child was born 62 years ago before all this insanity. I can't imagine being a mother today with young children.
I would opt not to have them, sadly. I have 2 grown children and neither want to have children until they see whatās going to happen. This is very common amongst their friends. Just another reason we are depopulating.
My children were born in 1985 & 1990 - vaccines were a normal thing at that time, we didn't give it a second thought as their checkups consisted of the Dr. explaining what the vaccines were for. Neither of my kids were harmed. Fast forward to 2007 today, as a grandma of 8, out of them all 4 girls and 4 boys only 2 of them appear to have some difficulties. I firmly believe it was the vaccines that caused it.
2 out of 8 is TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT. No offense meant but, if your investments had a 25% failure track record, you'd change brokers.
A quarter of them were vax injured, how do we allow them to do that to our children?
Because now they get so many more!!! Itās insane what is given to childrenāannual covid and flu shots, Hep A/B!!!!
*DURING* Psyop-19 [NOT to imply that said operation is over] it went from 72 doses to 90 (***NINETY!!***) This has gone way past 'obscene,' past 'criminal,' past 'tragic,' and reached 'profoundly evil.'
Newborns on day one are getting vaccines that are totally not needed.
way more than 50 years ago!! AnnieMarie.
Shoot. I think I only had 5 or 6 when I grew up
My Mom is 96 and in great shape, and canāt even remember her last vaccine. She declines them all and has for decades. She was raised on a farm with almost all the familyās food produced by themselves. Somehow, with the medical indu$try being what it has become, and food being processed and even produce being lower in nutrients, I donāt think weāll be seeing as many people in the future who reach their 90s in good fettle.
hey! that's cool. My grandmother is EXACTLY the same and she turns 96 in 2 weeks.
she was disgusted by the cowardness of the American public.
she also thinks we're heading for civil war. I've never known her to be wrong on big issues.
Thereās a lot of wisdom and experience in an observant person whoās made it as far as their 90s!! My Mom said the covid vaccine felt āall wrongā to her and declined it, and she also said, āI donāt want the world to shut down for me.ā She saw right through the whole scam of coercing people to āprotect grandma.ā
yeah, my grandmother was disgusted that we put the welfare of those short for this world above the children.
i mean she was absolutely horrified by it.
this was something every prior generation understood. It's as if there were a near autistic level of selective amnesia.
Bizarre
This is probably part of the reason covid was created to target the āelderlyā. Not only are they deemed āuseless eatersā, they KNOW stuff. They know what itās like to live through the Great Depression, they know what fascism looks like, they know how to survive without the nanny state etcā¦
And many of them are not shy about speaking up.
I was a military kid, so I got jabbed, but I got hammered being a veteran.
It is unconscionable what DoD forces upon our military, and then when they are injured by these vaxxes, gaslights them by claiming they're crazy.
I was born in the early 50ās so had 3 growing upā¦until the age of 9, when my family moved to Libya. We were plied with multiple vaccines (typhoid, TB, Cholera, smallpox, and polio) as was everyone I knew overseas. Nonetheless, still WAY less than now, and we never knew a single kid who had a heart attack, a turbo cancer, had autism, ADHD, etc, etc, etc! Most in my generation, if asked, will say the same, those afflictions were just about unheard of!
Yes please. My teen had a well check this week and the doctor tried to convince me that she HAD to have 3 meningitis vaccines in order to go to college. Nope. Not doing that to her again. I pretty much lost it and she then led me to the option of exemptions.
Bingo!! Stop taking your children to āwell checksā. When you take your 7 year old car, to the Dealer for a certain mileage check, is there ever a time that you drive away without them telling you need a new something or something needs attention???
Do you go to a Lawyer for a check up to see if you need to file a lawsuit that you didnāt know about?
I worked in healthcare for over 20 years. "Well checks" are nothing more than a process to get you back into the clinic for a billable event. Pediatricians are notorious for this because of the fact the ages they treat donāt have chronic conditions like adults. Big Food and Big Pharma are doing all they can to change that, but it doesnāt happen overnight so "well checks" are needed to pay the bills.
Good point - I hadn't thought about the fact that pediatricians aren't dealing with the chronic conditions. Although, in recent years, there has certainly been an uptick in the four A's - Asthma, allergies, autoimmune diseases, and autism that should help their bottom line.
They deliver the cause of the chronic illness and autoimmune diseases.
And if at all possible, get you on some meds for one thing or another, whether you need them or not.
Pediatricians make big bucks if they can vaccinate a high percentage of the children. I tell people to avoid pediatricians like the plague!
My only regret is that I have but one "like" to give to this post!
Iām liking so many in this article my finger is bleeding 𤣠I love you all and your critical thinking skills. God bless each one of you and keep speaking up. Donāt stop! Some say thereās a lot of talk but no action. But talking out loud about what-must-not-be-named IS taking action and brave at that during these times. We give each other courage so that when an opportunity (crossroad) to actually physically do something we are equipped with the necessary courage. So I Like. Like. Like!!
And Fred mine is that my ālikeā button is disabled (as it is for many of us that have complained of the same problem.) Beyond frustrating when I do not want to comment on EVERY post I like, but do want to add my approval by clicking the ālikeā button.
I wonder if anyone is working on this problem, or even knows it exists, or who can we even contact to fix it? I see this same complaint on OTHER SUBSTACKS besides C&C.
I think youāre right. She will be a senior next year. We should just be done with them since they aim to injure.
There are foolish people that do take older cars to the dealership for "wellness checks". An acquaintance asked for advice on this just the other day as he had taken the car to a dealership for an oil change (first mistake). He asked them to look it over and the came back with $10k in "recommended repairs". None of them were warranted except a minor coolant leak which they were overcharging by a factor of three to repair.
A concept with initial good intentions, preventative health care or preventative maintenance, has been completely corrupted by a unethical system to fool people into spending money on stuff they don't need. They use fear-mongering and the customers ignorance to pressure them. It amazes me that most people still can't see this and take this stuff seriously rather than laugh at these people and walk out.
I've never understood why people see their doctors for this weird thing called a "wellness check." If you are well, why would you go? And these days, even if I don't feel well, I don't go. š
I am 83 and we grew up in a time when kids didn't get rushed to the ER for every little thing. The only time I saw a doctor was for a Polio shot and once he came to the house when I had a bad case of measles. When we got cuts or scrapes, it was iodine and a bandaid. We weren't at all poor; rushing to doctors just wasn't done.
Iām 73 and the first time I saw a doctor was for a college entrance physical in 1969.
I only saw a doctor once in my life in my childhood: to get some necessary stitches on a cut. It never occurred to my mother to take me or my siblings to the doctor for normal, childhood illnesses. She certainly wouldnāt have taken us to a doctor for a āwellness checkā. She knew if we were well or not already.
Oh how I miss Common Senseš¢
My daughter does have chronic issues, which I 100% believe are from childhood vaccines. My functional doctor told me to play the game to get the insurance to get blood work done so we could keep an eye on her.
It's like convid. How would you even know you had it without a test?
Yes!!!!!
This reminds me of my mom's strategy for a pushy salesperson who wanted her to buy an extended warranty. She told him to that she had every confidence that the product was such good quality, an extended warranty wasnāt necessary. He didnāt know what to say back š
The irony of doing a hard sell job on a product only to turn around and claim that the product really is a piece of crap that you canāt expect to last, so you need to pay for an extended warranty!
Right?? šš My mom was very savvy to use that tactic š
Sounds like the vaxx program.
Last shot didn't work, you need to take another.
Yes! THIS ā¬ļø
Walmart checkout cash register prompt: "Would you like to buy an extended warranty on your new flat screen TV?" That would be the TV which will last for ten years of normal use.
Actually they even ask if you want to buy an extended warranty for that mechanical pencil you just bought or that SD card. 𤣠Itās for everything now. $15 toaster? Want a warranty? Um no thanks Iāll just buy another if it breaks š
As an old lady on Medicare, I have had several calls from my insurance provider to have them come and do a "home health visit", they'll give me a $15 bonus if I do it.
My thoughts since CV is, if they have to pay you for it, it's probably not in your best interest.
They make sure you donāt have fall risks inside the house and basically check your blood pressure. Not really helpful unless you want company.
Medicaid does the same. They will pay you a bonus to have an annual dr visit. Bribery 101. If someone wanted to have an annual appointment, no bribe "bonus" needed. All bs.
yeah man, let kids be kids. they get runny noses for a reason.
there seems to be a misunderstanding; all of us will shuffle this mortal coil.
there's just nothing to disambiguate and children would be better off knowing this.
how else are they going to evaluate their own risk?
Another cause of the increase in childhood diseases is the obsession with cleanliness and handwashing with antibiotic soaps. I am not advocating for filth, but when we kids played in the dirt during the 1950s we returned the next day for more of the same, still healthy and stronger. Our moms did not try to trap us in antiseptic bubble suits, which seems to be commonplace today.
In addition to yes playing outside all day and in the woods behind the house as a child, I am a lifelong nail biter (tried to quit but impossible) so why am I rarely if ever sick? I do wash my hands but you know those fingers are always in my mouth. PS. I hate those sanitizers and I never use those hand dryers in public restrooms.
Could not agree more. There are times when it doesn't make sense to wash your hands....especially in some public restrooms!
GOOD POINT. "Free screenings," too, are the same. Utter B.S.
Hum, something new? I'm BLOCKED from liking your comment...
With logic like that, you have come up with the perfect handle.
Good one!
Way back when āguardasilā first arrived, doc tried to get me to give ok to give to my daughter. I read the brochure & said no. Later in the week, a nurse from our state dept of health called me. āWhy not?ā she asked. I stated it was only tried on 12 girls! She admitted she wasnāt giving it to her girls either. About a decade later, when my daughter was going to doc by herself, they tried again. She asked, if itās only for ages 14-24, what happens if someone older takes it? The doc was stunned and let it drop. Our kids learn, even when we donāt realize it. Also, from their current commercial, I see they give it to both boys & girls, regardless of age.š¤¦āāļø

This is a story from the Vaxxed movie about Gardisil. Colton took his life at 18 because he didnāt want to be a burden to his family.
This makes me so mad Iām in tears. Iām sick. My son was talked into HPV vax when he went into the Dr unaccompanied by me. At 13-14. Thanks to Oregon law that said I was no longer needed and my kids could make their own medical decisions. 𤮠I would have NEVER let him do it. I was livid. Still am. Iām sick for Colton and his family.
So, at 13-14, the kid canāt purchase alcohol, canāt drive, canāt serve in the military, canāt work a job, and the parents are held accountable if the kid doesnāt attend school. BUT, the kid CAN make life altering medical decisions based on doctor recommendations supported by undisclosed, inaccurate and incomplete information. š³š¤
The kid probably thinks they are being treated like an adult being able to make their own medical decisions, but they are being treated like a baby by someone in authority saying, āHere take this itās good for you.ā
Perhaps kids should be taught that adults are seldom āgiven all the information,ā but must seek out full details, ask questions, to be able to make informed decisions. If someone is ālettingā the kid be an adult while handing the kid an already made decision, then the kid isnāt acting as an adult.
šÆ
ššš
I was horrified to learn recently, that my now 32 year old daughter was enticed into receiving the Gardasil shot when in school, with me not knowing anything about it!
Some friends of mine told me their kids on high school teams were forced into it! They had a terrible reaction to the first shot & refused the remaining two. Sad.
horrible~!
I googled "what is gardasil" and THIS was the third info line returned:
https://www.reddit.com/r/FamilyMedicine/comments/16titq5/whats_with_the_opposition_to_gardasil_and_how_do/
A few select quotes from the medical community gleaned from that Reddit thread follow ..."I lean into this is the first vaccine that can porevent cancer" ... "vaccine paranoia" ... "I think [parents] see it as sexualizing children" ...
It is interesting but not surprising to learn that anyone who objects to The Allopathic Life (t.m.reg.) is sneered at and described as a fool.
Reddit is so rife with leftism.... they love them some vaxines over there.
And Ukraine is winning!
It was considered by many to be the most dangerous shot until the Covid genetic injection came along. In Australia, the drug companies do not have immunity. I remember hearing RFK say that a lawyer could make a great living in Australia just by taking Gaurdisil cases, because the injuries were so devastating and easy to prove. The sad thing is that less women and girls are getting Pap smears, which easily detect any abnormal cells on the cervix. And of course, the shots interfere with the immune system comment making any kind of cancer more likely.
If a girl waits until marriage to have sex and her husband waited too, neither is at risk of any sexually transmitted disease, no pap smears or gardasil needed.
People these days seem to think having sex is an uncontrollable urge. Itās not. āMy body my choiceā begins before sexual intimacy occurs.
I hear you, but thatās not the way the world is these days. According to my younger friends, people donāt even really date anymore. Just casual hook ups. Not saying this is right, but the human sex drive has been a problem for thousands of years. I applaud anyone who has those principles and sticks by them.
These days? Yikes. Are we that decrepit now?
There is nothing wrong with the human sex drive. Every period in history has its flaws, and these days there is a serious problem in our culture with responsibility. If you suggest to someone that it might be healthier to eat real food instead of a hotdog, cheetos, and a coke for lunch, youāre āfat shamingā. If a teacher refuses to inflate grades for āstudents of colorā theyāre racist. If you remind a teenager that having sex can lead to having a baby or getting a disease, youāre called a prude.
In all times in history, making good decisions leads to good outcomes. Sorry if that offends you.
LOL> the 50s are calling you. Reality check
I was born in 63. People havenāt changed, culture has. But the fact still remains that sex is not an uncontrollable urge. Itās a choice. But people act like āOops, I didnāt mean to have sex, it just happened and now I have this baby/disease/feeling of emptiness.ā Actions have consequences, and that wasnāt just true in the 50s.
I think it's a better bet, given the level of sex shaming and suppression of knowledge. to raise your children to be responsible and loving and to understand the consequences of sex, with and without birth control.
and to understand the financial consequences, and the life path consequences of unprotected sex. and even better, save it til you are in a committed relationship with someone you TRUST.
wishing and hoping for a day when kids dont have sex seems to me like the silliest of the options.
but maybe that's just me.
āSuppression of knowledgeā is a myth. Young people arenāt having sex outside of marriage because the adults in their lives didnāt educate them, but because the adults are saying āitās fine - do what you wantā.
If those adults would actually give them knowledge, along with wise counsel about how dangerous it is to engage in sex outside of āa committed relationshipā - aka marriage, with all the social and legal protections that come with it for the couple and the children that will likely be the result - then young people would get married and then have sex.
Iām not āwishing and hoping for a day when kids donāt have sexā. To me, wishing and hoping for a day when kids can have sex with no undesirable consequences is a whole lot sillier.
Well put Bryn. This notion that, "they are going to do it anyways (not just sex out of marriage but any self-destructive behavior) so let's try and remove all consequences" has been the direct cause of just about every society ill of the past seventy five years. And as we've seen with the trans stuff, there's no end to it as the more things are destigmatized, the more we get. We now have people arguing it's somehow compassionate to help kids cut their genitals off. Slippery slope on steroids.
This is the basic social conservative/social liberal divide that at it's heart is about exercising self control. Those who exercise self control are more successful in life by almost every objective measure; marriage length, physical health, mental health, financial status, legal issues, children's success, etc. This is blindingly obvious to most rational people. Bad decisions destroy people's lives and those of the ones around them.
Bottom line though is that this is a spiritual issue. People who exercise self-control usually do so out of accountability to God. People who behave recklessly, or even worse encourage others to do so, usually believe that they are accountable to no one. This is such an obvious reality that it boggles my mind that people cannot see it.
Great comment Jeff C!
You misunderstood me. I have no problem with the human sex drive. We wouldnāt exist without it. I personally do not think it is necessary to wait until marriage, but I would counsel A young person to be careful to understand the risks and responsibilities, and try to have an experience with someone that they truly love. With very good birth control. I do respect people whose religious values make them want to wait until marriage. Again, not my personal issue. Just pointing out that expecting everybody to wait is unrealistic.
So what did you mean, then, when you wrote āthe human sex drive has been a problem for thousands of yearsā?
Counseling a young person to ātry to have an experience with someone that they truly loveā is the problem, because it is full of assumptions and ignores reality. You donāt have to have āreligious valuesā to understand that that āexperienceā can and often does lead to a baby, and then what? What if that person you ātruly loveā doesnāt truly love you? Abortion? A marriage that begins with duress? Single motherhood? Adoption, which is lovely for the couple wanting a child, but full of heartache for the foolish girl following your bad advice?
And thatās just the pregnancy possibility, what about the STD that will likely follow you the rest of your life? And no one talks about the very real emptiness young people experience with casual hook-ups.
You donāt have to have āreligious valuesā to look at this with eyes wide open and see that there just is no upside to sex outside of marriage, only risks. Responsibility is not religious. And the adults in the room need to wake up and start talking about this honestly, the whole thing, not just birth control and fantasy love.
Btw, both of my children were conceived while I was using birth control. Good thing I was happily married.
& the commercials for it are on every night
I declined the guardasil for my daughter too way back when. Then a friend of a friend died of papaloma virus throat cancer at 33. You donāt get paps for your throat so I got scared and had her get them. I still regret it. Thank God she was okay and is now 21 weeks pregnant with our first grandbaby. And this child will have no shots ever if I have to homeschool her myself, I will. Luckily we still have exemptions in my state.
My sister had it in her tongue. It has a high survival rate but it sounds like the 33 yo waited until it was too late and it must have metastasized into probably the lymph nodes. Not good.
Yeah, my boys doctor asked me, why, as a woman, I wouldn't want my boys vaxxed to prevent girls from getting cervical cancer. I replied, "They are 12 and not having sex and when they do, they can wrap it up." When I pointed out the issues in Australia, he told me it was all bunk and did a google search to show me nothing showed up.
I love that. Google 'white couples' to see how corrupt that 'search' engine is.
My cousin sells it and refuses to let her daughters take it!
ALSO HORRIBLE>
Interesting that a nurse from the Health Dept called. I never answer these types of intrusive questions regardless of who is asking them. I'll usually reply with "how is that your business?" or something along those lines. My pastor once pointed out how Jesus in the Gospels often answered bad-faith questions with a question. That made a big impression on me.
Every interaction like this has three potential outcomes, I'll come out ahead, stay the same, or come out behind. There is zero chance I'd come out ahead in this instance. I'll likely stay the same, but there is a chance I come out behind if I say something incriminating that this person in authority doesn't like. Why in the world would one choose to participate in a voluntary interaction with those potential consequences?
I was naive and since it was another woman figured she would level with me. And she did! This was around 2010, maybe. But nowā¦would probably take your advice and not get into it!
I hear you, been there myself. Gray hair does have some advantages after all. I have to constantly remind myself of the things I did when I was younger and shake my head. Apologies if it came off as critical, that wasn't my intention.
šš¼šš¼
Japan pulled it from the market due to all the injuries. But not the good olāUSA. We have commercials showing ācab dadā whose job is to keep his family safe.
Yes, because āthe new boysā are REALLY girls- see how their bs fear porn works?!
The argument I heard was because itās sexually transmitted getting boys the shots would make it less likely theyād transmit š I think itās a bogus argument but clearly some bought into it.
My friend's teen daughter was separated from her mom for the physical exam at the ob gyn. My friend specifically told the dr and nurse no hpv vax. This child was given the shot anyway and has self reported she has never felt the same way since.
Your friend should sue/report if possible. So sadš¢ We parents & grands have to go beyond āstranger dangerā to tell kids that even people who seem ok do not always have their best interest at heart. Especially if money is involved! š„ŗ
My son started a Cal State University last September, they have a meningitis vax requirement. We simply filled out the religious exemption form that a long-standing Board of Regents order requires schools to accept. It was not intrusive but simply requires students to affirm that they have a religious or philosophical objection to vaccines. It was approved no questions asked.
The school didn't make the form easy to find and did the old trick saying all students were "required" to get vaxxed without elaborating on exemptions. But they are there if you hunt for them.
Not being judgmental but curious why you take your kids to pediatrician for a "wellness check" when there's nothing wrong with them. Between vaxxing them up, trying to separate you from your child to talk about sexual deviancy, and asking you intrusive questions like "do you have a gun in the house" there is zero reason to do so. Remember a simpler time when we only went to the doctor when we were actually sick?
Our private school says the wellness visit is required by the state. A certain form must be completed at the visit. I researched this ālawā and from what I can tell it is an effort to check kids for abuse. They have good intentions perhaps, but it is extremely invasive, the doctor inspects every square inch of my child looking for signs of abuse, completely unacceptable if you ask me and Iām about to forge the form next year.
I don't know about your state but most laws like this have an exemption provision to fend off legal challenges (though it's usually hidden or not disclosed). That way the requirement becomes technically voluntary. You have to find the actual law passed by the legislature and read the language in detail. Press releases and summaries put out by Public Health departments *never* state this and are intended to mislead you.
California has a requirement that all kids starting elementary school must have a dental exam (it was pushed by the Dentist's lobby). Although we had taken our kids to the dentist, we submitted the exemption because screw these people. Accepted with no questions asked.
And the school nurses will never mention exemptions. I'm wondering how to get the word out to parents of young children since the medical providers are hiding the very existence of exemptions from families.
would be great if in the KNOW parents would spread this awareness!
You tell two friends, and they tell two friends, and they tell two friends. Worked well in those glorious pre-internet days.
This is where attorneys could really help, by reading the language and explaining it in laymanās terms so citizens would be armed with arguments and be able to opt out. They could post in a place that would be easy to find and accessible.
Yup, some orgs like the National Vaccine Information Center have done this for vax laws, but I've never seen it for something like this.
One thing we have to our advantage is knowing the exemption provision is almost always there. Laws are written by lawyers, and lawyers are cautious, detail-oriented people (unlike Public Health press hacks). Knowing it's there makes it pop out when you find it in the law text.
Iām in Texas. I already found the exemption form for her college and am ready to request a religious exemption.
There is something wrong. She has chronic conditions. These are most likely from childhood vaccinations. Functional doc suggested I get any blood work done through doctors so insurance will pay.
So sorry Kim, she is in our prayers. We are in the same boat with our older son and thankfully a GFCF diet and protein supplements have made a huge difference for him. Stand your ground mom, you are doing the right thing on the vax (but you know that). I'm sure you can get an exemption for college. Even here in California (which doesn't have a childhood vax religious exemption) they have them for college. The National Vaccine Information Center is a great resource if you need help. God bless.
Thank you, Jeff. I have extreme guilt about ever having vaccinated her. But I did not know then what I know now. She is on a gluten free, low fodmap diet. And supplements. Itās helping but always a struggle.
I know it's difficult for moms. Years after my son's issues started my wife told me the same thing, the guilt. Men and women are so different, it had never even entered my mind. I was angry that we had been manipulated into doing it but never felt guilty. Once my wife told me I was shocked, I had no idea what she was going through.
You were deliberately manipulated by a very sophisticated campaign that toyed with your emotions. They told you that you would be a bad mom if you didn't give your child the shots. (This is why I think it hits moms so much harder, they don't say this to dads.) They used your God-given maternal instinct against you in a despicable fashion. It was a cynical and evil, and done just so they could make money.
I know it's easy to say but you have nothing to be guilty about. You were doing what you thought was in your child's best interests and were betrayed by people that you trusted. Betrayed by people who's very job it is to help you protect your child. That's not your fault. About the only thing that comes close is a child being abused by a religious figure that claims to follow Christ. It's that bad.
Lay that guilt at the feet of Jesus. He knows what kind of mom you are and how much you love your kids, He will break those chains of guilt. And know that everyone here is pulling for you and that you'll use that righteous anger to never let anyone ever again hurt your child. I know it sounds trite, but God does use the trials to transform us even though we can't possibly understand how in the moment. God bless and prayers up.
Thank you ā¤ļø God has been working on me on laying things down. So this is a timely word.
So perceptive and so very well-stated, Jeff C.
Did we even have pediatricians back then (i'm 71).? I only recall seeing the same Dr my parents' did.
yes also 71.- my dad was a pediatrician who did house calls and traded with the local farmers for bags of Potatoes, tomatoes etc.
he talked a lot about preventive medicine which I think, knowing him, was about avoiding sugar and candy and eating more whole foods, not prepared ones and no chemicals added.. and less tv, more exercise, drinking water, instead of soda, etc.
Doc Gamm tended to my dad when he got chewed up by a chain saw, delivered all 6 of us kids and stitched up our family as needed. Small village in MN. Nobody had a choice, really. Thank God, he was a good Doc.
Yes! I never went because I would never complain and would try to hide any illness from my mom so I wouldn't have to go!
My Medicare doctorās office called for my annual wellness check up. I told them I was fine and thanks for calling and hung up!!
Or, "Yes I'm well. Thanks for checking up." ->hang up. Keeping that one in my hip pocket.š
That's my question. Like ... someone takes their kid with nothing wrong with them to a doctor so that the doctor can say that there is nothing wrong with them.
Does any of that make any sense. Is that or is that not a usurpation of all parental authority? And the adult goes along with it like some knee jerk cast in cement consent.
I cop to fear on going along with the program. The court system was part of that. That, and at the time, late 20c in the immediate wake of the 1986 Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, I didn't know any better. If I knew then what I know now, the court system would still loom. I take your point, truly, but from the outside not every parent's choice can account for the subject circumstance. Just presenting another point of view. No intention to instigate anything heated.
In my case, there IS something wrong with my daughter. The functional doctor recommended I take her for blood work purposes. She is chronically ill and needs checks. Sometimes things are not cut and dry when your kid is ill. Otherwise, she would not be going to the doctor.
My granddaughter could not see well. The pediatrician helped us find that out when she was only 2.
No one is saying never take your child to a doctor. If there are symptoms of a problem then absolutely one should get their child checked out.
What we are saying is that "well baby checks" are an excuse to get your child into the office to shoot them up with vaccines. That's the point. And most pediatricians are the worst pharma pushers of them all as they get paid large bonuses for hitting vaccination targets. The child is a revenue stream for them, they aren't unpaid missionaries helping poor starving kids.
It's fascinating that people think a single case of a pediatrician doing good somehow invalidates the the obvious corruption of the well baby visit premise. Hopefully this doesn't come across as overly harsh but this is shallow thinking. It's the same logic used to validate the entire vaccine program, if it saves just one life then the whole thing is worth it. No that's not true. We have to assess not just the possible consequence (your child might die!!) but also the likelihood. That's how one assesses risk and determining the prudent action, not just based on fear-mongering.
Pushing on this a bit further, did the pediatrician fix the child's vision problems by catching it early? Does the child have 20/20 vision now? Of course not. At best the pediatrician got the child wearing glasses earlier than she might have otherwise. That's all well and good but hardly a medical miracle. The parents, you, or a teacher would have noticed it soon enough without the well baby visit.
It's stories like yours that have been used to guilt well-meaning parents into regular office visits otherwise they get tarred as "bad parents". I don't mean this toward you as I know that's not your intention. But this is exactly what the medical industry does and it is their intention.
I go to my PCP so infrequently, the last time in 2019, his first comment was āLong time no see!ā
I needed to find out if I needed surgery on my shoulder. Otherwise I wouldnāt have been in at all.
I'm surprised your doc mentioned exemptions - usually the medical folks won't bring that up! Was this a pediatrician or family medicine doc?
I think the answer is in her comment, "I pretty much lost it..." Good for her. People just passively accept a lot of this stuff but a good dose of well-timed righteous anger can work wonders.
PCP. I was surprised too. I believe my response is what did it. Then I was really angry about the approach.
Any touch point with medical providers (these days) is just a chance to be shaken down to take pills, jabs, and procedures. The medical industry is a total mess now.

I can relate. Our doctor threw a fit when my son said no, so he called me into the examining room. I confirmed he was not to be given the vaccine. He said I was putting the āboyā at harm. I said he already has severe allergies and his immune system was not strong enough. He left the room and a nurse came in with a tray loaded with syringes! I asked her what are those for, we said no. She went and got Dr. Benadryl (the name I gave him when my son was younger). He came back into the room screaming at me. The a-hole had the nerve to tell me the government would take care of him. I looked him dead in the eye and said no means no. When he stormed out the nurse said to me, āGood for you. I remember you. Where have you been?ā We hadnāt gone to him for 12 years. The only reason we were there, was to get a copy of his records for college. We were able to file a philosophical exemption because they were still accepted in 2009.
I was just thinking this needs to happen to the flu vaccine too. The flu vaccine does nothing but spread the flu.
The department of defense did a study on its personnel in 2019 to see how effective flu vaccines were. It turns out that the flu vaccine raised your risk of all other respiratory viruses by 36%, including the coronaviruses that were circulating at the time.
Of course. The flu shot rarely matches the form in circulation, so your immune system is all primed for something that doesnāt exist while the stuff that does exist shows up and knocks you flat.
I foolishly let my daughter have the flu shot 1.5 years ago and she has been more sick than the whole rest of her life. It really makes me upset. The upside is she knows she's been sick more times that she'd like and won't ever take another. Very hard lesson to learn.
HOLY CRAP
Do you have a link to this study??? At some point there was a study done in South Korea, I believe, which did a flu vaccine v inert placebo study on flu vaccine effectiveness. I had the link to it on an old computer, which I no longer have and I canāt find that study any longer. That old study showed equal rates of the flu in both groups but far higher rates of other respiratory illnesses in the flu vaccine arm. Iād love to read the study you are referencing!!!
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3404712/
For me, the takeaway line in that paper is, "Being protected against influenza, TIV recipients may lack temporary non-specific immunity that protected against other respiratory viruses." That applies equally to the mRNA spike protein and one's natural immune system.
Agreed. Iāve never had the flu shot, itās been over 20 years since Iāve had the flu. Mom, in the few years before her death, had bad reactions but her doc had her keep getting it until I stepped in.
I really think that Aaron Siri and Del Bigtree, ICAN, are doing just that, inch by inch.
Yes! They are great heroes. The Informed Consent Action Network is one of the best places to donate if you want to stop this vaccine madness.
PS please watch TheHighwire online if you are not already doing so. They do in-depth investigative journalism, not only on science and medicine, but on climate and all of the globalist tactics, gender issues, and nefarious practices. If you watch the show, which is Live on Thursdays at 2 PM Eastern, and replayed anytime after that., you will be a few years ahead of the curve on events that are important to health and humanity. And it is entertaining and extremely inspirational!
Iāve watched Del since he began in 2017. Watch Peggy Halls latest Substack video. She brings up some troubling info on a new ICAN and Aaron Siri lawsuit. You need to read it for yourself. Peggy makes some good points, that if true, will make me stop donating to them. Iāll see if I can find the link.

See link to The Highwire episode (with relevant time stamp) posted by @Fed up in this expanded thread. The text of the proposed law is very crafty - a sort of middle finger at all the craftiness in bills-passed-into-laws used against the People at every f'n turn by industry after industry.

Interesting!
"But what really threw me for a loop was when a few of Bigtreeās associates reached out to me privately defending Bigtree saying that I, myself, was in error and that surely, Bigtreeās bill was nothing like I was making it out to be, because Bigtree is āone of us.ā
Well, the thing is: I didnāt criticize Bigtree, I criticized his bill, and I stand by my analysis of it."
The childhood vaccine schedule was bought and paid for by Big Pharmaā¦with no basis that it protects or prevents anything the āshotsā are supposedly for. And how they guarantee this, is that they have bought many state legislatures, to pass legislation that requires ALL children be āvaccinatedā with this horrific and injurious āscheduleā to be able to attend school in these states. (And many states like California allow for absolutely NO exemptions.)
Itās a giant CASH COW for them and the pediatricians and health care provider groups that push them. And in turn these children become ālifetime patientsā of the Industrial Medical Healthcare Delivery System from the āvaccine injuriesā.
Zero autism in the Amish - I wonder why?
yup but also because they don't have teevees
We all know and so does big pharma !!!
I agree, the court ruling set some really good precedents to build on. Aaron Siri has been doing exactly what you are requesting backed by Del Bigtree. I'm sure they'll be all over this.
There's lots to choose from but this is my favorite quote from the court, "Litigants who have already demonstrated their willingness to tactically manipulate the federal courts in this way should not be given any benefit of the doubt." Yes!!
The court is saying that people who routinely lie and/or act in bad faith are probably doing it this time too until proven otherwise (i.e. not given the benefit of the doubt). Hardly precedent setting but finally some common sense, by their fruits you shall know them.
Just today, for the first time seeing hit pieces on both BigTree & Mercola.
means they are over the target! Mercola has been banned for ages.
Well BigTree is pushing the FDA, and Mercola is pushing psychics and high-carb diets.
Did something happen to them to get them off course?
https://peggyhall.substack.com/p/why-is-del-bigtree-promotingvaccine?r=ys7bn&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true
But is it true? Been following Mercola for years & still get daily newsletters from him, never heard him pushing psychics. Iāve never heard of Peggy Hall until yesterday. š¤·āāļø
Many people are. Here are a few Dr. Peter McCullough, Steve Kirsch, Dr Pierre Kory, RFK, childrenās health defense, a great organization led by warrior moms called PERK. There are many many others. The great lawyer Aaron Siri and the organization ICAN (informed Consent Action Network) I have been battling the CDC and FDA for years, and have had many victories and are building a foundation of precedents that can be built upon. ICAN is a great resource if you are interested in helping. They regained the religious exemption for school children in Mississippi, and are trying to free the five remaining states in the country that will not allow religious exemptions. ICAN is a fantastic nonprofit organization to donate to.
They bastardized the term vaccine sufficiently to make all vaccines a therapeutic which makes them all optional? And letās stop pretending the old vaccines were preventing disease as I am now told I need an MMR booster in my 40ās, a flu shot every year, chicken pox booster for my nephews in their 20ās, pneumococcal booster⦠Booster is the key word here - vaccine therapeutic. Therefore, all can be deemed optional.
I still hate it when women use the word 'balls' instead of the word 'courage'........even when their message is correct like this one is.
As a farmer, I can tell you balls are good for more than courage. They cause adventuresome behavior, stubbornness, a certain type of Donāt Screw with Me behavior, and other desirable traits.
It doesnāt take courage for a bull to chase me out of the pasture, because heās easily big enough, as are the steers, but only one of them causes me to watch closely to see if heās looking at me.
More of our men need to exhibit a strong enough Donāt Screw with Me and My Herd attitude to scare the bureaucrats and politicians.
As a friend with two daughters says , the womens' movement spent decades emasculating and criticizing masculine behavior, but now they regularly complain there are no real men left? Duh?
Unfortunately, we have generations of men who have been feminized by a woke agenda, and rarely exhibit the traits of a real man. I miss them.
Personally, I wonder how much vaccines have been a cause of emasculating men.
Well, a friend of mine coined the term āpolitical castrationā (PC) to describe the behavior of so many politicians and other āthought leadersā in our society today. Geldings and steers and capons behave differently than when they were āintactāā¦soā¦
'Spineless cowards' gives a much stronger message and is as insulting as it gets. But, we live in an age of 'talking pigs' and it is getting worse. I have been guilty as well but I am trying to control my choice of word usage when angry which is quite often with these Godless, cowardly, communist turd munchers, driving the bus. :o)
You are šÆ on this, Darby. Good on ya.
Love it. I have no problem suing words that make snowflakes melt.
Yes. My daughter-in-law, who faithfully waited for God to bring the right man into her life, is almost at the end of her first pregnancy at the age of 38. She and my son were able to make this baby without the fertility treatments that are so common today. And they are so happy, except for the anxiety about what the medical world may do their child.
When my DIL was four years old, she got a baby brother. She had all the play equipment to mimic her motherās actions in caring for the baby; bathing and changing and feeding her baby doll. But at around 2 years of age, the brother, who had been developing normally up to that time, suddenly regressed and became a different child. Today, we would say he is autistic. But 30 years ago, his parents and even the family doctor didnāt know what to make of it.
My DIL is dealing with the fear that this will happen to her child. She is a very earnest well educated, professional person and has researched exhaustively, has a functional physician and has done everything health wise that she knows to do. My heart aches for her.
She says her brother went through several courses of antibiotics in his early life because of ear infections. She believes this affected his immune system and he was overwhelmed by the childhood vaccines given to him. (Which 30 years ago was far fewer than today!).
Her present concern is she tested positive for group B strep (GBS- this is mandatory testing for pregnant women now) and either she has to receive antibiotics during labor to āsupposedlyā prevent the baby from getting GBS or she has to stay an extra day at the hospital so they can āmonitorā the baby. The antibiotics would enter the babyās bloodstream.
She and my son are resolved, after extensive research, to not vaccinate the child. Theyāve been able to find a supportive pediatrician. (Miraculous in itself, as almost all of them will refuse you if you donāt vaccinate.)
If you pray, please pray for this decision they have to make about the antibiotics.
We really donāt want them to be āmonitoringā the babyās health for an extra day. We have zero trust that āhealthā is their priority.
I donāt even know where this GBS business came from. I had four midwife deliveries going back 50 years ago and there was no such thing. My children were having their babies some 15-30 years ago and they donāt remember such a thing.
Sorry, this is long and may not seem relevant to many of you. But if youāre not concerned about the fact that Autism rates have increased from 1 in 10,000 30 years ago to 1 in 5 today, you better be! I worked extensively with Autistic children in the public school system, and I do not believe civilization can survive with 20% of the population thus afflicted.
Something has to be done to stop this massive vaccine madness.
Kind of worried that this decision might create a precedent where if they can "prove" that a vaccine will protect others and not just the recipient then it will be able to be mandated... I'd like to have Jeff's thoughts on that. Anybody else thinking the same thing?
That does seem to be a danger.
When I think how angry and righteous I used to be about parents who refused to vaccinate their kids -this was before Covid....it's very embarrassing to me. Once I realized with Covid what they were doing, it took less than a split-second for me to realize it has likely been that way all along. Oh, the apologies I need to send out....
I am horrified at the number of vaccines given to today's babies. It absolutely must end.
We can also start standing up for our pets and saying NO to all these recommended vaccines. Many of the human policy overeaches started w pet policies. Try traveling w an unvaccinated dog. Nearly all kennels, day cares, and many hotels, etc. require proof of vaccination. (Early test runs for vaccine passports!) Veterinary medicine is ALSO Rockefeller Medicine.
exactly! no baby needs a hepb shot just to leave the hospital.
Brilliant speech! The real pandemic is the woke mind virus. That drives all of the Westās psychotic behavior.
Woke is just one denomination of the Cult of Science. The climate nut "scientists" are not woke, but they are just as much a part of that Cult. It's just bad, misguided science that is our primary problem, worldwide.
Jeff made the key point: Science is not a moral guide; it has absolutely nothing of value to add to decisions of morality. All it can do is test hypotheses as to what is "true" or not. And even then, it can only test physical properties in the shared phenomenal world. At best, it can provide but one type of input into decision-making.
And that is the key problem with "public health" as a discipline. Real public health decisions are moral decisions primarily - but also economic decisions, legal decisions, business decisions - not merely medical or "scientific" decisions.
Once the big threats to public health were controlled (with clean water and food and effective sanitation), the only way to stay in business was to find the next 'biggest threat,' even if it wasn't a big threat, and here we are. John Snow removing the handle from the Broad Street water pump in London isn't remembered as a tyrannical move, but one that saved many lives, through his recognition, by collecting and mapping the data, that most cases of cholera centered on that common-use water pump.
I came here to say the same thing.
The Truth Virus affected all of you at the same time? š
Jeff, anyone⦠is there a link to the letter to the Church that you sent out? Would love to read it and Iām sure others would as well.
I think there's a link waaaay down the page past the comments.
Yes, I would like to read that letter, too.
Please share.

This benefits us Seattle Firefighters who were fired for the mandates despite our exemptions. Itāll strengthen our case. Anyone who thought it was justifiable to fire cops, firefighters, teachers, nurses and doctors need a huge reality check on the facts.
Yep, the city of Seattle, just like King County and the State of Washington, never had ANY intention of honoring the religious exemption requests of anyone! Praying that your suit continues to move forward. I know many people in Seattle who either lost their jobs or were forced to take an experimental shot they did not want or need.

Sadly, here in NYS, Herr Hochul has stated many times, the fired "unvaccinated" will not be welcomed back to hospitals and nursing homes.
Come now, you who say, āToday or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.ā Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, āIf the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.ā

In many cultures, including our own, 'God willing' was always added to a future event.

WHERE IS DR. MERCOLA? He is MIA. His company and his foundation are under new management, his sister has been fired who helped found his company 40 years ago, he has ceased making videos, he has reversed many of his long standing health recommendations and his foundation has ceased their 15 year support of the anti-vaccine charity National Vaccine Information Center. And yet, through all this, Dr. Mercola is nowhere to be seen. The only person publicly representing the Mercola organization is someone called Kai, who claims to be a psychic who channels an "entity" called Bahlon, who is advising Mercola. Where is Mercola? Is he even alive? Why have all these changes taken place in his company and yet he is no where to be seen?
https://www.nvic.org/newsletter/may-2024/defending-freedom-of-religion
Redux of Alex Jones type lawfare against Dr. Mercola?
Thanks for posting the weird happenings with Dr. Mercola.
Mercola has been under attack since this whole thing started years ago. If you recall, he was identified by Biden as one of the "dirty dozen" that was spreading misinformation and should be deplatformed and cancelled. They de-banked him and closed his bank accounts. They tried to destroy his company and he fought them tooth-and-nail and they failed. I fear now they have come at him through other means and succeeded. The HUGE red flag is that since all these changes occurred, Mercola himself has not personally appeared. Where is he? The things that has been done do NOT fit with the Mercola we know. He fired his sister. Really? He reversed himself on carbs and is now recommending a carb loaded diet that would drive anyone into diabetes! This is not Mercola. He knows too much. For me to believe that he would recommend such a position goes against all logic. Mercola is smarter than that. And now a "psychic" that channels a demon is the only person speaking for him publicly??? No! This stinks to high heaven. I don't buy it for one second. What have they done with him?
One might look more broadly - there are a number of prominent people being taken out from their positions of influence in a wave of censorship. Silencing Bannon, Jones, Mercola, Trump, and others. The enemy is regrouping and taking out prominent people who can help organize an opposition to future plans. Just like what happened in 2021 when Media Matters publishes a hit piece that deplatformed a dozen prominent YouTube influencers over the course of two days.
I believe you are exactly right. The ground is being prepared for their next assault on us.
Good points...I fear for his safety.
In hiding maybe??
I didn't think of that.
He has never been a coward. I don't think he could be bought off. He has alsostated that he is a Christian.
I didnāt think bought off but more for his own safety? Not implying he was a coward but more waiting it out. I donāt know him well enough to say but it was just a thought.
Maybe his familyās safety. Thatās how they work. Mafia tactics. His prior work speaks for itself.
Yes good point.
Wonder if he got MK-Ultra'd?
Good question. I always enjoyed the videos he did on a regular basis. They have suddenly ceased. Either he is dead or he is in no condition to be allowed in front of the public.
Good question.
I can't vouch for this substack author entirely, and I don't not vouch for him, but here's what Rounding the Earth wrote about what happened to Mercola
https://roundingtheearth.substack.com/p/mercolas-psychic-friends-network
Thanks for the link. I think what is happening as an organized effort to discredit Mercola. Why is a psychic speaking for Mercola. Mercola can't speak for himself? When I see Mercola in person saying this is his position then I will believe what is being said. Where is he? Until then all of this is not legitimate in my opinion.
I don't trust him either!! Don't dare ask him questions about what he is writing or get into any dialogue he doesn't approve of!!! He'll blast you, block you and lie about you!!!! I had it happen on something very small that I asked him. So take what he publishes with a grain of salt! I've never had that happen on any substacks I participate in!!!!
Agree. Have seen aggression. Be wary.
I have seen other reports about this. My question is how far back does this antagonistic behavior go? Is this fairly recent or has he always been like this?
Following a presumed confidential meeting/contact, Sage Hana got doxxed a year ago or more. Again a year or more ago, I forget who the other party was, the subject party lashed out after the other party challenged. I was done at that point. There was some love lost with *horse farmer/jet setter/presumably vx injured M.D. fairly early, aggression from the side of the subject party. I forget the response: ghosting? blocking? standardš“tactics; full on full length article? I don't remember, just that the war had become internal. (Just to be clear, though I got sucked into š“for about a year at the start I am now at the stage of full distrust; I'm convinced dude's a limited hangout/controlled opposition.) Anyway, behavior of the subject party is not merely of late but rather longstanding. My observations, sans documentation.

Thank you for posting the link for Dr. Sansone...he is a true warrior.
He is !! The first I heard about psychics and I thought I heard the word channeling ?
I know he has been under attack for sometime. Did they succeed? I am still getting their email, but will quit buying from this company until we get the truth. Iāve relied on him for years, but lately he is amending many of his prior beliefs, so maybe it isnāt him sending them. This is so frustrating. God be with him.
This is the correct response.
Please let me know which of his beliefs he is amending. It might give a clue as to what they are doing to him.
I have lightly followed Mercola for decades but I don't pay a lot of attention otherwise. The change that first alerted me to something going on was his change on carbs a few weeks ago. Abandoning his KETO recommendation, "he" is now recommending a carb loaded diet that would destroy anyone's health and turn them diabetic. I instantly knew that could not be Mercola - unless he has been "captured".
Yes, that definitely alarmed me! I have bought some of his Keto books, so when I saw that I was commenting to myselfā¦..are you crazy!!!!
Keto, lowcarb and such like IF starves your body and brain from the glucose the body and brain prefers. Science proves that. You arenāt really burning fat properly like you think and gluconeogenisis is using cortisol, adrenaline stress hormones to generate that glucose and leads to bad fat oxidation and insulin resistance long term. Think about itāstress hormones really needed for short term energy should not run your entire brain and body all the time. Degrades and shreds muscles, my thyroid went haywire, bones weaker, (2 surgeries for broken bones) metabolism on the floor and insulin resistance weight gain and more. I eat simple carbs like fruit and easily digested carbs. Iām not stuffing my face with bad carbs and especially bad seed oils. Iām probably over 200 carbs a day now. Decent amount of food. I feel much better, sleep great, more energy with these delicious fruit carbs. Nutritious carbs. Fats, even butter, b doesnāt really have much nutritional value beyond that but maybe Vit A. Fruit has a lot. Lustig is wrong too. Very wrong, but making plenty of money on those mice. Several gurus are now eating more carbs. Admitting the damage. Mercola woke me up to this. Iām grateful but it hasnāt been easy changing.
Nothing wrong with fruit, in moderation, that mother nature meant to be eaten such as berries, papaya, etc. Goes great with a healthy meat based diet. Americans typically eat anything but a healthy diet of mostly processed foods extremely heavy on the processed carbs. Thus the diabetes epidemic. Then you add in all the heavily consumed industrial seed oils and you have a population of sick, weakly people who are dying early. Prior to 1970, Alzheimer's wasn't even a thing... seed oils instead of animal fat and coconut oil.
I understand. I've never agreed with the entire Keto philosophy and got the books because my son was using it and I wanted to understand it better and be able to cook good meals he could heat. I believe in balance in everything, especially eating. I don't eat any junk foods, bad carbs, bad fats, eat all pasture raised meats and raise my own chickens for my eggs. I also get raw milk from grass fed cows and won't give up any quality food group. We can only eat so much and I believe in a well balanced and high quality food diet. I'll never give up fruit, especially fresh berries of all kinds and now is the season they are coming in.
Very odd indeed.

Has a psychic supposedly?
Heās put out recent stuff and videos. Iāve watched them. He put his archive back on line so not sure what the poster means. Yes, he has amended some of his recommendations. No longer low carb keto because he now understands that long term use of IF, low carb, keto, carnivore works fine for awhile and then causes metabolic and energy generating damage at the cell level, leading to down regulation of metabolism, thyroid, insulin resistance, weight gain and much more. Iām trying to reverse my damage from nearly 10 years of it. He has helped make me aware of all this. The trend is leveling out on all this plus former gurus are changing their tune. I donāt buy his products as I try to keep supplement use down.
I agree, something is going on. Iām a long time supporter of him and NVIC. This development with NVIC is concerning..
My new position is "all the vita pills industry is complete BS". Until I find otherwise. Especially from the fancy expensive guys like Mercola. We know much of the sources are Chinese/India industrial chems, and then put into pills here to be labelled as 'made in America'.
CDC is corrupt. Our doctors are corrupt. Why do we trust the vita industry as we seek 'health in a pill'. 3rd party testers? Could be bought off. Let's investigate and ask questions!
Check: https://chemtrails.substack.com/p/wtf-how-vitamins-are-made-trust-me
Eat real food instead!
I have used supplements for decades to great effect. However, I believe about 80% of all supplements are BS...just a guess. I have limited myself to a very few supplement companies, most notably Life Extension whose supplements have always proven to be first rate and they back it up with real science.
I stopped using Life extension a year before lockdown
They were putting silica in one & it upset my stomach. Pure encapsulation brand now. Iām very weak in autoimmune system from cirs and mold illness. I take extra olive leaf for the āshedding āthat seemingly never ends.
I was using Pure Encapsulations as well, but they have been bought out by Nestle so I've been using up what I have and will review it further. It's so exasperating.
Yep. This whole vitamin thing as another conspiracy is exhausting.
But worth a hard look.
Oh no! Thanks for the heads up. Crushing!
I can tell they help when I skip a few days. They have blends I canāt find elsewhere!
So as much as people can say eat better, I already eat great but we still have to rely on quality supplements to enhance what we need. I have asthma and have used vitamin c supplements for years. There is no way I can eat the amount of food to get me the dose I need in vitamin C.
Same here! & Iām gluten free, non gmo , Apeel makes me burp for hours. Every time I go shopping, another company has cheapened their products to keep the cost down. My favorite chocolate covered almonds was the most recent one.
Please stay away from Apeel and Organipeel!!! I trust nothing out of Gates! I eat organic and nongmo for anything I canāt buy organic. But one thing I learned about nongmo to be careful about. It still has pesticides and you really want to eat organic grain and flour products. The worst thing is how conventional wheat is being processed in the U.S. They now harvest it with glyphosate to dry it faster. Well we know you canāt take that out. Plus nongmo corn likely has pesticides so I recommend organic corn products unless you buy from farmers you know. I think a lot of people are avoiding gluten when the issue now because of all the pesticides they are using to harvest it. Who ever expected the US to be the worst in the food industry!! Itās just diabolical.
I believe my leaky gut and ā gluten intolerance ā is actually a glyphosate allergy. I asked the allergist if they had a test ( years ago) & got a blank stare.

Exactly right.
Iāve been modifying many of the supplements I take as so many companies have been bought out by Big Pharma or other corporations who have done questionable things! Itās so frustrating as I have been doing this almost 30 years and now the companies we trusted are being bought out. Although some of the prior owners have said they will stay involved, there is only so much these companies will let them do. Life Extension is one I am impressed with all the way around. They offer so much more than just supplements. Itās a well rounded company!
Agreed, though I do take some supplements.
The core issue is, once again, looking for "salvation" in the material world. Whether looking to mainstream doctors or alternatives, it's still believing the world can save us. I advocate for finding one's Inner Voice (connection with God), and asking to be led to whatever is appropriate for any given situation. [Really liked that Tucker interview with new president of El Salvador ... similar theme...]
Frightening news. Many people trust Dr. Mercolaās advice.
His longtime partner, Erin Elizabeth, posted about this whole messy mess on Telegram, Feb 14. She asked for prayer for Joe and his family, as they are deeply concerned about him and the people he is now surrounding himself with.

Wow, this is really weird. He's been convinced he is a god and the new Jesus? He's fired Christians? I'm going to unsubscribe from his emails, which I haven't read for awhile anyway.
That is what is being said about him...heresay. I believe what his happening right now is an attempt to de-legitimize Mercola. Whatever has been done with Mercola will eventually come out and they must prepare the ground work for his "demise".
Itās terrible you never know if the ātruthā about someone is coming out or a smear campaign š
I am with you about hearsay. So far we have no idea who is speaking for him and I do recall when he came out and advised us that he was being threatened as well as his family. I can see them coming in and destroying everything he worked for. The carb thing really was a red flag since I have bought some of his keto books and this was an huge change! I just deleted it and moved on. Something didn't seem normal at all. Just look what they are doing to President Trump. Then do a search for Dr. Mercola and there are all kinds of hit pieces on him by the leftists talking heads!
š®
Just speculating, but he may have been targeted for psychological warfare and perhaps had a breakdown. I noted that one of his last videos he was touting buying eggs only from a person who fed her chickens peas that had been cooked over a 24 hour period and he was paying $25 a dozen. It was really odd. That's not a natural diet for chickens.
That is definitely one possibility.
I believe itās by design, warping his mind and destroying his dependable business model.
I know, but he tipped me off to the damage of low carb and keto, fasting etc long term. Most of which I have or am experiencing. There is so much wrong after the initial good feeling or weight loss. Downhill health problems that donāt appear for a while. Heās always been super enthused and s bit hyper plus on the cutting edge. Just because heās eating fruit now or sells supplements , doesnāt make him suspect. They all do. He admits his mistakes which you have to agree is pretty rare these days. He lists sources and references for each article. I have learned a lot. He has been attacked by all sides of power.
Definitely can't permanently cut out certain food groups. Our bodies needs a variety of foods.
I have notice a huge change for about a month. I have wondered what is going on.
Thank you for bringing that up
Maybe his site is now 100% A/I. I have lost faith in Mercola and don't always agree with him.
I will probably never agree with any person 100% and I think that's healthy. No one has everything 100% correct except God.
Oh my, that is disturbing. I hope heās OK. I do know that he and his family were receiving death threats at one point, and I know the government did everything they could to stifle his company.
I too am wondering what the heck happened. He is now aligned with some sort of psychic, has been making anti-christian comments, etc. It sounds like he went to the Dark Side?!
I asked a friend "Maybe he was MK-Ultra'd?!"
He thinks the Catholic Church is evil now.
That's what I had seen as well.
Wtaf?
I love some of his products. worried about his business operation - heās well known in Naples for the excellent service & heās been hoodwinked!
Yikes. I hadn't noticed that.
Standing ovation, Jeff! ššš

Loved the homeowners association reference...the reason we will never buy property in a collective run by an HOA board. They take the saying "a little bit of power..." to an extreme.
In the words of the Princess Bride modified: There are two things you should never do. First never get into a land war in Asia and second never get into a lawsuit with an HOA. I worked for a guy who wanted to develop some property. He's been in a lawsuit with the HOA for over 10 years. It's insane.
I counter sued my HOA several years ago and WON. How? The community was so disgusted with their actions against me, they voted out the majority of the board and ran for and won their seats. We then settled the suit amicably and peacefully. It can be done, but you have to have the community with you.
Not to be devil's advocate or anything, but I've served on several HOA boards. The single biggest problem from a Board's perspective? >> People who buy property in an HOA and REFUSE to read the governing documents of the place before they sign. They move in, and want to do whatever they were doing in a private single-family home, or some other HOA. Everyone wants the "conveniences" of HOA living (landscaping and other needs handled for you, and often much more), but they also want the freedom to do whatever they want, no matter what they signed off on. You can't have your cake and eat it too (most of the time anyways.)
I worked for an HOA in the richest area of central Ohio. 90% of the residents had more money than common sense. The other 10% were pretty cool. I had to do these "welcome" speeches for new residents and I can't tell you the number of people who were shocked when I told them the rules. They HAD to sign a copy of those rules when they closed! It took everything I had not to ask them why the hell they didn't read it first.
At one of our closings, we were reading everything carefully before signing. We delayed the rest of the day's schedule, because apparently almost no one reads them, so they schedule them with short time availability. As a college student, my friend and I read the rental lease for our apartment; the manager said we were the only ones he'd seen do that. My dad was a lawyer, so I was raised with that guidance.
Thank you!! I was on my HOA board for 10 years, president for 5 of them. Our neighborhood is oldish, most houses built in the early 80's but our deed of restrictions has ensured that not only has our neighborhood kept its value, but actually makes it sought after with our pool, tennis courts, clubhouse and lots of neighborhood activities all maintained and organized by our volunteer board. One need only drive through the neighborhoods to the E and W of ours, that do not have an HOA, to see that there is some value. I 'get' that some HOA boards are petty tyrants and dictators but our restrictions are basically, 'you must maintain your property'. An occasional PITA-type person who occasionally landed on our board was voted out. If you want to let weeds over run your flower beds, have peeling paint on your house, and pile junk in your driveway, don't buy a house in our HOA.
You nailed it!
My favorite scenario is when several "cost conscious" owners manage to get on a board. They then refuse all recommendations to raise fees and properly fund the reserves. Thus creating multiple cases of "deferred maintenance." They save money, sell their properties years later, and future owners get slammed with huge concrete, roofing, and other capital costs as assessments.
We have a couple of saintly people who've been on our board for ~30 years (although one recently stepped down due to failing health). They are the 'rock' members who have records and memories of every dumb decision and discussion (every 5-7 years we get a young one who wants to put in a playground - legal liability, insurance costs, and maintenance issues make it a big NO, and we have 2 city owned parks with playgrounds within a mile of us). Me and the 2 rocks were the only ones to vote down a proposal to resurface the pool area with a surface that ended up being slick when it was wet, and hotter than blazes when the sun hit it. The silver tongued sales guy's company filed bankruptcy when we took him to court (we weren't the only ones unhappy) and THAT dumb decision ate most of our reserves as we ended up having to tear out the entire pool deck and replace it. Other than that we have maintained a pretty even keel between keeping dues down and taking care of the less sexy maintenance things, thanks in a large part to the legacy members. God bless them - I did 10 years and I burned out - hours and hours of unpaid work and people only pay attention when they get pissed off and want to yell at you over some petty thing. Most have no clue how much work goes into it, especially when you have a very large common area, clubhouse, pool, and tennis courts that all have to be maintained.
I'm sure there are a few reasonable ones...but I've never heard anyone say they are fine with their HOA. We once looked at a small property (11 acres) with a house in an HOA. When I read the agreement it was just short of "you must go to church o Sunday and we will install video cameras all over your property and in your house to make sure you comply". For property with acreage, the restrictions were insane.
Well hereās a first for you thenāIām fine with mine. They were only a bit excessive about dandelions (for example) when the builders were still in control of it. Once it completely went over to the homeowners, after all the lots were sold, it became more relaxed and reasonable (even though it wasnāt bad before that).
I've read that HOAs are where the mall cop petty tyrants concentrate. My mom's had total seizures over a planter in front of her condo. They wanted to dictate what color it could be painted, how often it should be painted, and how high the vegetation could be in it. Control freak centrals, though now many have no doubt migrated to the public health and DEI establishments.
I have to speak up on behalf of Hoaās. Iām on the board of ours simply for the reason NOONE ELSE WANTS TO DO IT. But let me tell you, EVERYONE WANTS TO COMPLAIN ABOUT YOU! My term expires in January and Iām done. If our development turns to crap, weāll move.
Yep, did 10 years. Work your butt off for zero pay and then get yelled at all the time. I stuck with it as we had a core group for many years that were great people who did what they said they would do, were conscientious and we all had a good sense of humor and had some fun with it.
We have a core group on the board too. four out of the five members are great friends. Iām tired of everyone complaining about everything yet not one person is willing to help when weāre out weeding or watering or repairing. Itās our vacation home. We want to relax when weāre there butā¦. We had a neighbor come out and complain for 45 minutes as my husband and I were fertilizing the new landscaping. She didnāt understand why the landscaping company wasnāt doing it. I turned to her and said oh of course they would do it. But they will charge us. We donāt have the money in the budget to pay them for that unless we raise our Hoa dues. I said I didnāt have a problem with than. Did she? It shut her up but not for long. So tired of it.
Yes, landscaping services is one of the worst. No problem finding companies to mow & trim trees - but weeding, planting plants and maintaining it's either really expensive or really bad follow through. When I first got on the board ~2005 we had a 'teen list' of neighborhood teens who would advertise their availability for odd jobs - from dog walking, babysitting, leaf raking, snow removal. My son did a ton of that as he was in Boy Scouts and used the money he made for going on 3 'high adventure' trips. We had several teens the board used to pay for that sort of thing, with a few of us on the board working alongside them and supervising. But any more, seems like there are no teens who want to sweat or get dirty. I am no longer on the board but still pitch in on some of the 'clean up days' that they try to get volunteers for. Same old, same old, lots of keyboard warriors who complain but few who show up to DO stuff.
HOA board service has been called "The Worst Volunteer Position in American." Seriously - there is an article out there with that title. I think it's true.
One HOA topic I haven't seen discussed: Many people are worried about Blackrock and foreign investors buying up properties and turning them into rentals. It's happening in many neighborhoods. Yet, many HOAs (and most condo associations) prohibit rentals. Property owners scream about "my property rights," but their community is *protected* from the rental housing effect by those very same HOA documents. Seems that's worth something??
Yes, we had to grandfather in existing rentals due to case law precedent in our state, but our board did hold a vote in 2021 on changing our deed of restrictions so that no more properties in our neighborhood can become rentals upon sale effective 1/1/22. Our neighborhood is the kind of houses that are right in the sweet spot of these investors - prices hover right in the median housing price for our metro, although I have been reading that the investors are now pivoting into the below median value market due to higher interest rates.
We changed our bylaws this past year to say that you could not own more than two units and you had to live in one of the two. It passed, but barely. We have a person in there that owned three units and she sold two of them to a couple who live across the street. This couple now rents them out. They were one of the reasons we changed the bylaws. Unfortunately, they are grandfathered in but at least we stopped it from happening in the future.

great movie with lots of great lines
Wow
I loathe home owner associations. Power corrupts even in this level
When I bought my new house, that was my #1 rule. No HOAs, no "neighborhood associations", no one bothering me about how I live my life. If I want to paint the house purple and pink, I'm not asking anyone. Never good for a free spirit to go near those places.
You are so right!! As free spirit I feel the same. I do try to be respectful though. Admittedly, I fall short. I am not going to live my life to please others. Those days ended when I was 15 (I got some sense of self)
I live in a village in SC on Lake Moultrie. When I bought this house 26 yrs ago, the closing papers said that there was an HOA. I wanted to see the rules/fees, the closing attorney said "They don't have any". I've never been charged a fee and nobody's been elected to it in 26 yrs! Bliss.
This is where politicians start. And then itās on to town boards, and up and up. Every single one of them, almost to a man, want power over others. There is no other explanation. The altruistic politician, ended with George Washington.
I campaigned for an elected office because that approval board (above HOA's in that community) was out of control and beat all the incumbents. I said I would clean up the approval group and did. One of the first, a real estate agent, suddenly retired after 18 years. A few hung on more tenaciously. I highlighted some of their shenanigans and supported homeowners vigorously in an effort to allow more roofing options in. One of the group members was a little too cozy with some roofing contractors. I went "undercover" at a factory training class for the new roofing materials to understand this lightweight alternative, see how it looked, etc. I liked it so much I put it on my previously cedar shingled roof because stone was too heavy for that roof. (installed it myself too) Stone coated steel for those that are interested. Textured and formed to look like stone tiles.
Congrats!!
Thatās awesome!
As I said. Rare.
We always hear about the terrible ones though because people donāt talk about the ones that are not problematic.
Heavy sigh, youāre probably right
HOAās can be a pain - ours is pretty relaxed.
Our friends without HOA built a house then the Clampits moved in next door. They canāt enjoy sitting in their back yard.
Same here. Ours is relaxed and just keeps things from getting out of hand. For example we voted to limit rentals to avoid big companies coming in and buying houses to rent out. Itās a great neighborhood with mostly nice respectful people and the few issues get handled in a reasonable way.
Yes, we were able to vote in restrictions on rentals a few years ago - when I was on the board our lawyer told us that case law precedents in our state made that all but impossible. But after I left the board, they consulted a different lawyer who did put together wording that he thought would survive a challenge and it passed by the neighborhood vote by a large margin. We had to 'grandfather in' existing rentals but effective 1/1/2022 no one can buy a house in order to rent it out. So far has not been challenged. Out of 374 homes, about 25 of them are rentals, and those landlords and/or their tenants are about 80% of the problems our board has to deal with. You can tell the rentals from the owned just by driving the neighborhood, corporate landlords do the bare minimum and only fix things when they get a letter from us.
Ours isnāt too bad. No one has 17 cars parked in their front yard like a friend who isnāt in an HOA. Itās can be tuff without one too š¬
Thatās when you learn kentuckyian.
lol
But, but, but...Them Clampits wuz rich! And Granny
would whip you up some possum stew anytime you'd like!
Iām in the same boat. My house was here before the HOA. Do you want to join? Hell, no!!
I live in one and ours is actually completely reasonable. But I get it that the āpowerā goes to too many peopleās heads and they get crazy š

I can't believe it took a court case to prove the "vaccines" aren't actually "vaccines" has everyone been living under a rock, although I do understand why the court case happened, Im just amazed why the entire "covid" scam wasn't shut down years ago, there are millions upon millions of dead and at least 2 billion injured from the "vaccines" that aren't really "vaccines" I believe once the demons found a way to get filthy rich they decided they're never going to stop using this recipe, mRNA bioweapons for all, no matter what until the end of time or Jesus returns and shut them down.
Yes. To understand the collusion I suggest reading the first 50 pages of RFKās latest book, the Wuhan coverup, which lays out the historic 75 year symbiotic relationship between our universities, the Pharma industry, our military and the CIA ā ā which incorporated the techniques they learned from Japanese and German biomedical warfare, a.k.a. war criminals who were āsavedā through operation paperclip.
šÆ
Yes, that is a fantastic resource.
Courts are just a long uphill part treadmill, part ramp/chute out of the stock pen that one plods through with one exit into the slaughter house and the other exit ramp leading right back into the same dusty, manure-strewn pen you were previously milling about in.
āGovernmentā has had 4 years to step up. We have more data now than ever, a preponderance, that shows corruption, working with a foreign enemy, breaking laws, manipulation, etc.. no one is in jail or hung. Millions dead and injured.

Exactly.
Good reminder, Jeff. I have long thought the covid fraud was diabolically spiritual in origin as nothing else can explain how nearly universal it was and the fanatic blindness of its adherents. All of whom, in my personal experience, are also stubbornly blind to the Gospel.
That includes the church. Apparently they forgot the gospel....and the constitution during the plandemic.
I'm not being a jerk, but I think it's fair to say MANY Christians need to take a long look in the mirror.
They need to learn that the next time they will strip you naked leaving you with nothing but a mask.
True, but to be honest I believe that the majority of "Christians" are not actually born again, saved, Spirit-filled believers, particularly in Western countries where it doesn't cost much to go to church. That may sound provocative or controversial, but I firmly believe that even in the "church" God's people are a remnant. Probably more true for some churches than others.
So true. āEnter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14
Amen
Saved IS Spirit filled. To make those things two parts is to judge one VS the other as though they can exist independently and they can NOT! The Son and The Spirit are ONE.
Not sure how you're reading my comment, but we're not in disagreement.
Too many teach that God is doing ANOTHER SPECIAL WORK in them. THEY are extra special, and IF YOU BELIEVE EVEN MORE God will do something MORE special for you too...maybe if you try hard enough. Many need to see the lie. I fell for a time but God...šš¼
There is a new b*llsh*t label for the folks you describe: Carnal Christians. Their mantra is, "I'm already saved so I can do what I like without fear of losing my salvation". These folks have never taken Paul's words in Romans to heart. They also do not understand that every one of our ongoing sins is another burden placed on Jesus' crucified body.
Those folks will be sadly surprised when meeting God if they don't wake up first. Sadly it seems to be endemic in American churches.
I love the name of your stack btw
Agree. Well said
Absolutely true.
You can't lump all churches or people who attend church together. I was disappointed with some but others held the line and didn't succumb to the tyranny.
I agree. What percentage do you think took a stand of any meaningful impact?
I only know of a few. I didn't come across one before moving to Florida in May of 20'.
Maybe the gospel only applies in Florida.
It's okay to criticize the church. Same with the government.
In fact isn't that one of the main reasons the Lord sent his son?
We led our church out of deception without the Pastor AFTER the FIRST WEEK. Then they let us go after the Pastor was all š straight and unmasked after a year and a half. And we RAN! Now at a church that fell for ONLY a month and split. Was there even ONE church that didn't split? The wheat and chafing was real and brutal. NEEDED!! But there is MORE WORK to be done! Pray that the Lord of the harvest will bring more workers! šš»
God bless you for your courage!
Following Gods commands to truely NOT FEAR! Feed the flock, every Sunday with potluck our family made with one other man. (The Pastor came unhinged.) Led the hymn sing. Made sure the church building was sustained. We answered the calling of Christ. Not sorry for ourselves.
On a separate note, the main reason the Son was sent was to die for the sins of those who put their faith in him. Part of the process was to expose the religious hypocrites who put unnecessary burdens on the people. He (the Father) made Him (the Son) who knew no sin, to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him (the Son). 2 Corinthians 5:21
That's an interesting question. Unfortunately, I would guess there were probably more that went along with the tyranny than did not. And yes there's definitely room for criticism of the church. I just don't like blanket stereotypes.
I'm only aware of a mere handful of Full Gospel, Non-Denominational, and Fundamental churches that stood against the mal-governing authorities' overreach based on mis and dis information; the Adversaries are carefully studying how to counter and break them all at the next opportunity. We should study the Global Church and other Religious responses to the Lockdowns/Masking/Vaxxing Fraud pushed and either swallowed or defeated by those who fought back. The Fake Church of the Global Secular State demands compliance and fealty as the head of the pantheon of gods. How the LDS, JWs, Muhammadans, and many others were infiltrated and swayed by the CoVid Cult is also a lesson to be studied. And let's be real; CoVid bioweapon flu did spread easily and did sicken and kill Christians who ignored the shut-downs and spacing/masking/vaxxing. It also killed Christians who complied with all of those things as well.
Some PCA churches ignored the mandates and continued services, albeit with the six foot spacing between participants. During the first few weeks of the plandemic, none of the congregants came to church, out of fear (not because they were pushed away by our pastor). The service attendees were our pastor, his wife, my wife, and me (streaming video to the folks at home).
That's right WP. you nailed it.
My estranged daughter in law is a ā Christian ā. She visited at Christmas. I think she used my very expensive nasal spray prescription for brain damage. I have had tremors since. Sheās jabbed. Her church encouraged it. I told my husband she canāt stay here next time because sheās vaccinated and shedding.
Sheās also been ā cured ā of her bipolar disorder according to her. I saw things differently! Verbally abusive to her husband and ignored( iPad for a 3 year old) her adopted daughter unless she was showing her off
that's awful Rosalind. STAY STRONG!
I found a Christian counselor, short term, since she is determined to move to the area. She wanted to park her camper in the driveway while she has a house built. I canāt do that. Our house is accommodating my chronic inflammatory response syndrome . She has no idea what her father has done to accommodate my healing. & she destroyed so much progress in her ignorance and greed. Itās a challenge to handle it since i havenāt been able to forgive her yet. Forgiveness is crucial in my walk with Jesus.
Forgiveness isn't codependent. God calls us to repent before forgiveness. It doesn't lessen Gods love just how He deals with us and consequences are that. Forgiveness is a gift, bought, wrapped, prepared with love and anxious for the time to be given and ACCEPTED but repentance is the sign for the gift giving. Pray. Be ready. Be hopeful.
Thanks!

repentance is important . & yes , stay hopeful!
I guess I'm a jerk, too, because I feel the same way - starting with pastors, priests, bishops and elders. Terrible, terrible witness.
Yes. Pathetic witnesses. They don't seem to be self reflecting though.

Agree! Talk about the Powers and Principalities at work! There is definitely a supernatural war being waged, and the last 4 years revealed who would align with the darkness. I have trust issues now, as I'm sure do millions of us who saw through this endless mindfĆck.
And he that sitteth on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true. And he said unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit these things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part shall be in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. Revelation 21:5-8
For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through him. He that believeth on him is not judged: he that believeth not hath been judged already, because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his works should be reproved. But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his works may be made manifest, that they have been wrought in God. John 3:17-19 please read the whole chapter. Ask God to show you His truth. Don't trust men but the Spirit that agitates your natural inclinations for interpretation.

Great post. Put science back in its place, 9th circuit ruling truly is earth shattering. So-called vaccine was always just a medical treatment.
Read the patent. It is not a vaccine.
Yes. Read the SEC filings. It's an experimental gene therapy.

A FAKE medical treatment that was actually an injurious substance for sterilization, death, and long-term harm.
Love this! Great comment
Great article Jeff.
The threat of THE SCIENCE is much larger than just the warped "belief" system infused with morality trick-boxes they unleashed during the plandemic.
It WILL be used again (pandemic or otherwise) .
Why?
The Unholy Trinity of Fear:
1. Fear of losing power by those who wield it
2. Fear of those who are subject to it (reprisal or losing a "benefit/privilege")
3. Fear of those who's livelihood is beholden and justified by those who wield the power (bureaucrats, technocrats, etc.)
Fear of losing something is just as powerful as gaining something - if not more so. So strong it will launch a thousand hideous ships of terror.
Fear will corrupt to the core; even those who's fear is caused by the scourge of power.
And herein lies the real threat:
How we came to two generations that take climate change as unquestionable gospel.
I wonder who would be a bigger zealot in an imaginary crisis:
Someone who thinks you killed grandma or someone who thinks you're killing mother earth?
The level of cruelty that can be justified when people believe in a "moral" crusade is boundless because the beast inside is no longer burdened with the boundaries of empathy.
There is nothing so dangerous as a person or group who believe the ultimate testament of their fidelity to a righteous cause requires acts of cruelty to demonstrate their purity.
Well met, Ryan! Damn. And here in America, the only nation on earth disbarring the government from disarming the free people, they ought to be fearful.

My daughter who is almost 50 decided recently to go back to college for her PhD. They asked for her vaccination records! She told them she did not have them and they suggested she look in her baby book for details or she will have to get revaccinated before attending. Crazy since most of her classes were online. She told them that she will attend school elsewhere.
Someone needs to legally challenge these schools. At least adult schools, where childhood illnesses aren't an issue.
That is insane! They could just check her titers.
Or she could attempt a religious exemption. Make 'em squirm a bit, having those darned unvaxxed people on campus.
Insane.
