Media Censorship Is Being Directed To Nearly Every Important Issue Facing Society - And Has Been For a Long, Long Time

I wrote a surprisingly popular tweet about censorship a couple of weeks ago that I thought I would expand upon here. I wrote it one night after I had made the mistake of reading some newspapers on-line and watching CNN clips, (something I do for opposition research, not to discover any truth or real news - that I get from Rumble, independant journalists, TikTok, Twitter, and most importantly.. books).
 Then I read Rav Arora’s post on his excellent Substack “ The Illusion of Consensus ” with Dr. Jay Bhattacharya (please subscribe to their Substack below as I want to support one of the few journalists whose integrity forced them to stop working for corporate controlled media).

 One line of Rav’s was a particularly powerful and concise articulation of what I (and all of us) have been living through in Covid in regards to the media;
 “Notably, journalism — the filter through which ordinary people living busy lives come to understand the complex matrix of power, money, and influence — has also been exposed for its bizarre servility to public health decrees and pharmaceutical companies.”
 Although I was saddened to hear of the treatment and financial loss Rav suffered from not being able to publish deeply researched pieces questioning vaccine policy, I was shocked at the near identicalness (if that’s a word) and absurdity of the wording of the rejections from numerous editors he included in his post. Although servility to Pharma paymasters might partly explain their rejections, I instead felt they revealed that a “collective psychosis” had taken hold - these editors exhibited a sudden unquestioning, pervasive (and sincere!) belief in the infallibility of the health agencies and the trustworthiness of their data supporting a number of blatantly illogical health and vaccine policies.
 The replies betrayed a shocking, willful ignorance of the epidemiologic data not supporting jab policies, like mandating them for healthy young people and those with natural immunity (for starters). These news editors were both drowning in and failing to question the selective and/or manipulated data supporting the jabs. And they did so with a complete ignorance of the massive amount of conflicting and contradictory data (that Rav was trying to discuss in his article). I almost laughed at the realization that these editors were victims of their own censorship! Their deeply erroneous and harmful beliefs were self-inflicted by their censoring actions.
 But knowledge of the aggressive censorship around every single Covid issue is not new, nor unknown to anyone who reads my posts. What is really freaking me out now is the extent of censorship and propaganda that I am seeing on almost every single non-Covid topic (which I will go into in my 2nd post on censorship). Anyway, the night of my tweet, I was getting disturbed watching the synchronized, coordinated, repetitive media narratives around Ukraine, climate change, the Bidens, Trump and many other topics. I started to wonder, “how long and how bad has it been like this?”
 Answer: a long long time.
 A friend and FLCCC supporter named Gavin De Becker (of Joe Rogan podcast interview fame ), sent en email to a group of us a year ago and I saved it because of how much it impacted me. He included a chapter of Upton Sinclair’s book called “The Brass Check.”
 First, know that Sinclair was one of the greatest “truth-tellers” in modern history. From our “friends” at Wikipedia:
 Upton Beall Sinclair Jr. (September 20, 1878 – November 25, 1968) was an American writer, muckraker , political activist and the 1934 Democratic Party nominee for governor of California who wrote nearly 100 books and other works in several genres. Sinclair's work was well known and popular in the first half of the 20th century, and he won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1943.
 In 1906, Sinclair acquired particular fame for his classic muck-raking novel, The Jungle , which exposed labor and sanitary conditions in the U.S. meatpacking industry , causing a public uproar that contributed in part to the passage a few months later of the 1906 Pure Food and Drug Act and the Meat Inspection Act . [1] In 1919, he published The Brass Check , a muck-raking exposé of American journalism that publicized the issue of yellow journalism and the limitations of the "free press" in the United States. Four years after publication of The Brass Check, the first code of ethics for journalists was created. [2] Time magazine called him "a man with every gift except humor and silence". [3] He is also well remembered for the quote: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it. " [4]
 Further, know that the Associated Press was formed in May 1846 by five daily newspapers in New York City to share the cost of transmitting news of the  Mexican–American War .
 Note from Gavin: “This is interesting because Upton Sinclair describes several newspaper barons who had invested heavily in land in Mexico, and how they dearly wanted the US to declare war on Mexico:”
 By methods such as these Otis Chandler grew wealthy, and later on he purchased six hundred and fifty thousand acres of land in Northern Mexico. When the Diaz regime was overthrown, Otis had trouble in getting his cattle out, so he wanted a counter-revolution in Mexico, and for years the whole policy of his paper has been directed to bringing on intervention and conquest of that country. At one time the Federal authorities  indicted Harry Chandler, son-in-law of Otis, and his successor in control of the "Times," for conspiracy to ship arms into Mexico . Mr. Chandler was acquitted.
 Mr. Hearst also owns enormous stretches of land in Mexico, and Mr. Hearst also understands that if Mexico were conquered and annexed by the United States, the value of his lands would be increased many times over. Therefore for fifteen years the Hearst newspapers have been used as a means of forcing war with Mexico. Mr. Hearst admits and is proud of the fact that it was he who made the Spanish-American war. He sent Frederick Remington to Cuba to make pictures of the war, and Remington was afraid there wasn't going to be any war, and so cabled Mr. Hearst. Mr. Hearst answered:
 " You make the pictures and I'll make the war ."
 Hmm. Doesn’t the above make you think of the Ukraine war today?
 Anyway, know that The Brass Check was published in 1919. In one chapter he does a deep dive into the Associated Press (AP):
 About nine hundred daily newspapers in the United States, comprising the great majority of the journals of influence and circulation, receive and print the news dispatches of the Associated Press. This means that concerning any event of importance an identical dispatch is printed about fifteen million times and may be read by thirty million persons .
 According to the construction and wording of that dispatch, so will be the impression these thirty million persons will receive, and the opinion they will form and pass along to others. Here is the most tremendous engine for Power that ever existed in this world. If you can conceive all that Power ever wielded by the great autocrats of history, by the Alexanders, Caesars, Tamburlaines, Kubla Khans and Napoleons, to be massed together into one vast unit of Power, even this would be less than the Power now wielded by the Associated Press.
 Thought is the ultimate force in the world and here you have an engine that causes thirty million minds to have the same thought at the same moment, and nothing on earth can equal the force thus generated .
 Well-informed men know that the great Controlling Interests have secured most of the Other sources and engines of Power. They own or control most of the newspapers, most of the magazines, most of the pulpits, all of the politicians and most of the public men. We are asked to believe that they do not own or control the Associated Press, by far the most desirable and potent of these engines. We are asked to believ e that the character and wording of the dispatches upon which depends so much public opinion is never influenced in behalf of the Controlling Interests. We are asked to believe that Interests that have absorbed all other such agencies for their benefit have overlooked this, the most useful and valuable of all. We are even asked to believe that, although the Associated Press is a mutual concern, owned by the newspapers, and although these newspapers that own it are in turn owned by the Controlling Interests, the Controlling Interests do not own, control or influence the Associated Press, which goes its immaculate way, furnishing impartial and unbiased news to the partial and biased journals that own it.
 That is to say that when you buy a house you "do not buy its foundations.”
 Note from Gavin : Who controls the AP today?  Steven R. Swartz is the Chairman, and oh yeah, he’s  also President and CEO of Hearst .  The AP website describes itself as “ an independent, not-for-profit news cooperative, our U.S. newspaper members elect a board of directors to provide corporate direction according to AP bylaws. ”
 The key phrase in the above is: “ our U.S. newspaper members elect a board of directors to provide corporate direction according to AP bylaws. ”
 Now, if the “impartiality” of the AP is to be believed, then the Board must be made up of a large cast of newspaper editors with diverse backgrounds in terms of race, sex, wealth, ethnicity, and religion right?
 Dream on. Will Irwin, writing in "Harper's Weekly" in 1914, described a "ring of old, Tory, forty-one vote papers in control " of the Associated Press (meaning the small subset of newspaper editors with voting control of AP policies). Note that, at the time, 700 newspapers used the AP, but a subset of only 41 held a near majority of the voting power to elect the Board of Directors.
 Sinclair then recounts how each has attacked him and his truth-telling colleagues at the time:
 The "Los Angeles Times" is here, and de Young's "San Francisco Chronicle," and the "San Francisco Bulletin," of the itching palm, and the "San Francisco Examiner," which sent out my Shredded Wheat story, and the "Sacramento Union," which was sold to the Calkins syndicate. Here is the "Pueblo Chieftain," which circulated the foul slanders about Judge Lindsey and the miners' wives. Here is the "Baltimore News" of Munsey, the stock-gambler. Here is the "Washington Post," which, as I shall narrate, had a typewritten copy of a speech by Albert Williams, and deliberately made up false quotations. Here is the "Chicago Tribune," which slandered Henry Ford, and the "Chicago Daily News," which, with the "Tribune," robs the Chicago school-children. Here is the "Cincinnati Times-Star," which set out to fight Boss Cox, and didn't. Here is the "Boston Herald," which, I shall show you, refused President Wilson's speech as an advertisement, and the "Boston Traveller," which lied about my magazine. Here is the "Kansas City Star," which hounded Mrs. Stokes to jail, and the "St. Paul Dispatch," whose misdeeds I have just listed. Here is the "Oil City Derrick/' owned by Standard Oil, and the "Seattle Post-Intelligencer," whose bonds were found in the vaults of the Great Northern Railroad. Here is the "Portland Oregonian," which exists for large-scale capital, and the "Milwaukee Sentinel," owned by Pfister, who owns most of Milwaukee. Here is the "New York Herald," which suppressed my Packingtown story, and paid me damages for the Tarrytown libel. Here is the "New York Evening Post," which failed to expose the Associated Press, and the "New York World," which favors twenty-cent meals for department-store girls; here is the "New York Tribune," which lied about the Socialist state legislators, and the "New York Times," which has lied about me so many times that I can't count them.
 In 1909, it was discovered that the AP had fifteen directors. They were all publishers of large newspapers and just one was a "liberal” who died shortly after. The other fourteen were classified as "conservative or ultra-conservative” and were “ huge commercial ventures, connected by advertising and in other ways with banks, trust companies, railway and city utility companies, department-stores and manufacturing enterprises. They reflect the system which supports them.”
 Know that back in 1945, the US Supreme Court found that the Associated Press had been violating the Sherman anti-trust Act by prohibiting member newspapers from selling or providing news to nonmember organizations as well as making it very difficult for nonmember newspapers to join the AP.
 Again from The Brass Check:
 The Associated Press is probably the most iron-clad monopoly in America . It was organized originally as a corporation under the laws of Illinois, but the Illinois courts declared it a monopoly, so it moved out of Illinois, and reorganized itself as a "membership corporation," thus evading the law . The members of the Associated Press have what is called "the right of protest"—that is, they can object to new franchises being issued; and this power they use ruthlessly to maintain their monopoly.
 Like I will do in my next post, here Sinclair lists examples of other censoring actions of that time period:
 When Kansas, in 1908, rejected a conservative and elected a progressive United States Senator, the general public at a distance from that state did not know the real issue involved . For more than two years, there has been a strong movement in California against the rule of that state by special and corrupt interests, but that fact, merely as news, has never reached the general public in the East . The prosecution of offenders in San Francisco has only been a part of the wider movement in California. The strong movement in New Hampshire, headed by Winston Churchill, to free that state from the grasp of the Boston and Maine Railway Company and the movement in New Jersey led by Everett Colby, which resulted in the defeat of Senator Dryden, the president of the Prudential Insurance Company, have not been given to the people adequately as matters of news. In my story of the Colorado coal-strike, I showed you the "A. P." suppressing news, and the newspapers of the country, without one single exception, keeping silence about it. I showed you one bold managing editor promising to tell the truth, and then suddenly stricken dumb, and not carrying out his promise.
 Now, I will include an excerpt from my own book where I describe what happened with the Associated Press in the immediate wake of my “viral” ivermectin testimony in Senator Ron Johnson’s historic Covid-19 Homeland Security hearing:
 A day later, I received a request for an interview by the Associated Press, self-described as “the largest news gathering organization in the world.” This was huge—the global media home run we’d been waiting for!
 The AP dispatched a former fashion reporter named Beatrice Dupuy to interview me. I spent twenty minutes detailing the countless data points which consistently showed massive benefits with ivermectin treatment. The interview was cordial and Beatrice appeared genuinely interested in and intrigued by the information I presented.
 Shortly afterward, the AP ran their piece. This was the headline:

 The article itself isn’t fit for a birdcage. Beatrice deliberately omitted all the data I provided and chose instead to share the story of an Arizona couple who’d ingested a fish tank cleaning additive (chloroquine phosphate), which is an ingredient in hydroxychloroquine.
 “The woman became gravely ill and the man died,” Beatrice wrote breathlessly (I imagined).
 Don Henley said it best: “It’s interesting when people die; give us dirty laundry.”
 At the bottom of surely very stylish Beatrice’s piece was this interesting disclaimer:
 “This is part of The Associated Press’ ongoing effort to fact-check misinformation that is shared widely online, including work with Facebook to identify and reduce the circulation of false stories on the platform.”
 The FLCCC immediately filed an ethics complaint with the AP. Thanks to an errant “reply all” on their part, we were able to see an email thread between the CEO, ethics chief, and president discussing a plan to delay their response so they could “buy some time” to figure out what to do. It’s hilarious looking back at the naivete we possessed by filing an ethics complaint against an erstwhile fashion reporter. We actually believed that a moral code existed that we could rely on to force journalistic integrity.
 Two weeks later we received a letter stating that the AP had investigated the complaint and found no ethical concerns with the piece. As if they were actually going to side with us? Talk about the fox guarding the henhouse. We had a lot to learn, but our ignorance is amusing in hindsight.
 To summarize it differently: within two days of my ivermectin testimony, the AP contracted a media hit job on me, the FLCCC, and ivermectin. I wonder who commissioned that one (Gilly Bates and Pfizer are at the top of my list).
 Anyway, this is from Will Irwin, a writer from Harper's Weekly at the time of Sinclair’s book :
 "The subordinates have drifted inevitably toward the point of view held by their masters." And again, of the average Associated Press correspondent: "A movement in stocks is to him news—big news. Wide-spread industrial misery in a mining camp is scarcely news at all." At a conference at the University of Wisconsin, the editor of the "Madison Democrat" stated that he had been a correspondent of the Associated Press for many years, and had never been asked "to suppress news or to color news in any way whatever."
 He counters the above with a quote from Editor A. M. Simons: "I have had many reporters working under me, and every one knows that you will not have a reporter on your paper who cannot ' catch policy ' in 2 weeks [ in modern terms, I would say an employee who has “not gotten the memo.” ]
 From Will Irwin: To the best of my knowledge, only two or three new franchises [to the AP)] have ever been granted over the right of protest—and those after a terrible fight. Few, indeed, have had the hardihood to apply. When such an application comes up in the annual meeting, the members shake with laughter as they shout out a unanimous "No!" Abolish the exclusive feature, throw the Association open to all, and you wipe out these values. The publishers are taking no chances with a precedent so dangerous.
 Also the Associated Press, being a membership corporation or club, possesses the legal right to expel and to discipline its members . They can expel a member "for any conduct on his part, or on the part of anyone in his employ or connected with his newspaper, which in its absolute discretion it shall deem of such a character as to be prejudicial to the welfare and interest of the corporation and its members, or to justify such expulsion. The action of the members of the corporation in such regard shall be final, and there shall be no right of appeal or review of such action. "
 This, you perceive, is power to destroy any newspaper overnight . Not merely may a franchise worth two hundred thousand dollars be wiped out at the whim of the little controlling oligarchy; the entire value of the newspaper may be destroyed ; for of course a big morning newspaper cannot exist without its franchise. The masters of the "A. P." hold this whip over the head of every member.
 Now, know that as of 2019, AP had more than 240 bureaus globally with 1,400 U.S. newspaper members as well as broadcasters, international subscribers, and online customers.
 How about this little factoid: The AP is the only organization that collects and verifies election results in every city and county across the United States, including races for the U.S. president, the Senate and House of Representatives, governor as well as other statewide offices. Major news outlets rely on the polling data and results provided by the Associated Press before declaring a winner in major political races, particularly the presidential election. In declaring the winners, the AP has historically relied on a robust network of local reporters with first-hand knowledge of assigned territories who also have long-standing relationships with county clerks as well as other local officials. Moreover, the AP monitors and gathers data from county websites and electronic feeds provided by states. The research team further verifies the results by considering demographics, number of absentee ballots, and other political issues that may have an effect on the final results.
 Whoa. Thankfully, we haven’t had any concerns with election integrity lately.
 What is even more disturbing than the history, control, and destructive censoring actions of the AP, is that they then joined the Trusted News Initiative (TNI), whose members include a few minor influencers like BBC, Facebook, Google/YouTube, Twitter, Microsoft, Agence France Press, Reuters, European Broadcasting Union (EBU), Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Hindu, CBC/Radio-Canada, First Draft, and Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism.
 Although originally formed to control information around elections, in 2020, partner members of the TNI agreed, in the words of Director-General Tim Davie, “to work together to ensure legitimate concerns about future vaccinations are heard whilst harmful disinformation myths are stopped in their tracks.”
 Now you know why Covid was an absolute nightmare - the globally pervasive censoring of both the efficacy of early treatments (like HCQ and IVM among many others like Vitamin D) and of the toxicity, lethality, and inefficacy of the vaccines. These actions caused millions of unnecessary deaths while adding even more millions to the ranks of the disabled. History must remember this but, more important than History… is the Future.
 Censorship, in practice, is now literally a principle of major media journalism in my opinion. We no longer have a “4th Estate” to check the power of the branches of government and it’s controlling corporations. We are in a world war.. without an army to defend ourselves. They captured our most effective weapon, long ago, but the control they exert over it is now so complete, that army has now been turned against us. Traitors.
 But here’s the hope: independant media, the internet, and books - as long as the internet is running, books can be marketed and sold, and we can be discerning, there are excellent, transparent, objective sources of information and data to help us understand the many, often complex issues our society is facing. We must flee to those. It’s our only hope.

 In my next post I plan to explore and detail numerous examples of censorship being applied to nearly every non-Covid issue we face (which is a bit of a departure for Medical Musings).

Summary: Watching U.S society deteriorate secondary to what I think is unprecedented (but not new) censorship is deeply disturbing. In this post I review the history of censorship of the Associated Press.


What Wildfire Toxicity Can Teach Us About Covid-19 And Treating COPD

As a New York City-trained Pulmonologist, the health of the lungs of NYC has always been a subject near and dear to me. I still vividly remember the day after 9/11 (September 12th, 2001) when I and a bunch of other medical students helped move the rubble at ground zero only to get pretty angry when I learned later that the government had lied to us about the air being clean. It was not. At all.
 Over the years, the lungs of NYC have been through a lot (ie. it was hit harder by COVID-19 than anywhere else in the United States), and I have quite a few times over the last years, what's happened there has brought me to tears. Over the last few days, severe smoke from a Wild Fire system in Canada has converged on the Big Apple, and NYC now has the worst air in the United States. My parents live in lower Manhattan and my Mom just told me her building smelled of something burning yesterday and that at one point she even felt dust or ash on her tongue. Whoa.
 As a pulmonologist, I was fully aware of the literature demonstrating just how detrimental toxic air conditions (such as those from wildfires) can be for your lungs, and after 9/11 I learned much more about this subject than I ever wanted to know. However, despite that background, working with COVID-19 patients and vaccine-injured patients has given me an entirely new understanding of just how damaging these toxic air conditions can be in a system that is has hit the limit of the inflammation it can tolerate.
 My friend and colleague, A Midwestern Doctor, recognized the full implications of how problematic the wildfire system will be for NYC, and they put together  an article  on how to mitigate the damage from it last night and sent it to me for my feedback. I think  this article  is brilliant and has a lot of forgotten information people in New York City need to know right now. Also, it focuses on one of the most important areas of medicine that I am interested in right now which is the use of repurposed drugs and other cheap, safe therapeutic strategies they never taught me in medical school. Please take  a look at this  and share it with those dear to you over there.

The Inside Scoop On My Favorite Writer on Substack

About a year ago, I came across  A Midwestern Doctor  (AMD) and became an avid reader because of AMD’s depth of understanding of the intangible aspects of medicine that shape everything we do but are so difficult to put into words. Six months later, a mutual acquaintance connected us; we discovered we were kindred spirits, and we’ve been friends ever since.
 As we began to get to know each other, I offered to do whatever I could to promote AMD’s Substack, The Forgotten Side of Medicine . I did this because I felt AMD was one of the most deeply studied, thoughtful, and objective writers on Substack today and because AMD was bringing forth many messages that are vital for our movement. I also felt comfortable supporting AMD because I could tell AMD was a level-headed individual I could trust since the primary motivation for AMD was a strong sense of duty to do the right thing.
 Like me, AMD was enraged about everything we had witnessed happen throughout the pandemic, tried very hard but failed to stop the train wreck we could see approaching from miles away, and was profoundly grateful to finally be given a tangible way to make some of this mess a bit better. Both of us have felt compelled to provide as much as we can to end the COVID-19 narrative and strained a lot of other parts of our lives (such as sleep and personal commitments) to make that happen.
 Once I realized just how much time AMD both put into their Substack and into helping other writers in the resistance (like myself) compile effective content for challenging the narrative, I asked AMD why they had not set their Substack to paid; the community has recognized all the work AMD is doing, and many wished to support it.
 AMD told me they weren’t comfortable taking payments because their primary motivation was to do whatever could be done to make things right and did not want anything else to cloud their judgement. When I probed further, AMD shared that very little of their income goes towards themselves, and they needed to wait until a project they were working on to help address the current mess we are in was about ready to go before they could feel comfortable accepting payments here.
 I told AMD that if they ever decided to, I would write a post encouraging my subscribers to subscribe to AMD’s Substack and, if it feels right, to consider supporting AMD’s work as a paid subscriber. Since that time, AMD’s Substack has taken off and many have had the same experience I did from reading it.

AMD recently decided to do that and promised me that to maintain the public accessibility of their work, they will only use the paywall feature for the content they feel cannot be distributed to large audiences (i.e. due to an ethical obligation), and for personalized content not necessary to distribute to the public such as open threads for readers to ask questions.
 Due to AMD’s personal circumstances, they cannot disclose their identity. I agree with AMD’s reasons, and given where they are situated professionally, it is commendable they are taking on the risk they are to publish on Substack. When I told AMD I was going to write this article, AMD proposed including an interview so some of what AMD felt was helpful to share about themselves could be shared.
 Pierre: What do you think matters the most for writing in the digital age?
 AMD: When I was younger, I noticed I could often “feel” the author of many things I read and that many authors felt abrasive to the point it was a challenge to ignore it as I sifted through their writing for the data I needed. From exploring this question, I’ve come to believe that an aspect of yourself transmits into your writing and that quality is often the most important thing in your writing.
 Unfortunately, in the last few years, we’ve become so fixated on getting more and more information or data that we’ve lost our focus on having a coherent meaning and integration behind that data. One of the ways this shows itself is in the subtext behind modern writing, as it often either feels like poorly concealed attempts to manipulate the reader or a cathartic expression of the author’s emotional frustrations.
 I believe at this point in time, most of our problems arise from people being disconnected from themselves and each other and that the extreme political polarization we are facing is a result of this. So, when I write, my primary focus is not on the information at hand but rather on writing from a heart-centered perspective which can break apart the polarization gripping our society. As best as I can tell, there is a lot of receptivity to this style and it has had a positive impact on many exposed to it.
 Similarly, because the business model of the internet depends upon flooding the internet with content so you can achieve the most views, this naturally lends itself to endless superficial clickbait designed to capture views. Quality matters much more than quantity in writing. Still, while this is what people hunger for, the business model of the internet makes it incredibly difficult for this approach to succeed. For some reason (more and more, I feel was fate), I got fortunate because the right people had a hunch that led them to decide to help me build a platform. Since I was given the unique opportunity to focus on quality over quantity, I prioritize that even though it often causes me to miss deadlines I had made for publications.
 All of this may seem a little abstract, but in this age of overwhelming information, I firmly believe we need to recognize there are more important things in life than just information.
 Pierre: Do you have any other tricks for how you are able to put together and integrate all your content here?
 AMD: When I was a child, I almost died from an unfortunate stroke of fate and, in the middle of it, had a near-death experience that brought me to the path I am on now. During the recovery process, a mentor I trusted (who had used a lot of drugs in their lifetime) told me I was fortunate to be alive and that my system likely couldn’t handle any drugs (including pharmaceutical ones) or alcohol for the rest of my life. Since these events happened right before adolescents typically began doing all of that, I chose to follow a very different (and often socially isolating) path from my peers. As time went forward, I noticed my ability to recall information I had seen previously began to increase and increase compared to my peers, and at this point, I often have things I read decades ago pop into my mind as I am working on something.
 The other thing that has most helped me is being old enough to have watched the evolution of the internet from its earliest days. Previously, censorship was much rarer, and although the internet was much smaller, finding what you were looking for was much easier. As bias and censorship crept into the internet, I was able to adapt to each change. As a result, I still can find what I am looking for (although this frequently requires somewhat obscure websites), and I know how to adjust for the inevitable bias present in each medium.
 My circumstances are quite unique, and my heart often aches when I think about how difficult things are for the youngest generations or what my life would be like if I too was in the public education system now.
 Pierre: One of the things that drew me to your writing was your deep understanding of the history of medicine. What brought you to focus on this?
 AMD: In school, we were always taught that we learn history so we won’t repeat our past mistakes. Given that we nonetheless always do, this made me wonder what the actual answer to the question was (e.g., is it just to indoctrinate us with the government’s narrative of the past?).
 What I eventually concluded was that the fundamental nature of the human mind has not changed all that much since the dawn of history, so if you understand how humans interacted with circumstances in the past, it can provide you with a remarkable degree of insight into why they are actually acting the same way in the present. Because everything in life is so complex and so many different variables influence what transpires, having ways to cut to the core of what’s happening that each of those variables emerges from is often the only way to make sense of the complexity before you.
 The objective lens that history provides for understanding how humans behaved before, in turn, often ends up being incredibly useful for grasping precisely what is transpiring before you—something that is often otherwise impossible to do.
 Similarly, I’ve come to appreciate how ideas propagate and become established in cultures, not unlike a stone falling in a pond and causing a wave to ripple out from it. Often, the thing that lets you cut to the core of a complex dynamic you are witnessing is to observe the stone that initially fell into the water and eventually gave rise to the current dynamic.
 The best way I can describe my study of history is that as I’ve gotten older, the past, present, and future have merged for me. Now I see events of the past juxtaposed with a similar dynamic I am witnessing in the present, and I see both the stone (the initiating event in the present) and the waves it will create in the future simultaneously. The best movie I’ve come across that somewhat explains this concept was  The Butterfly Effect , but I am sure a better example exists.
 Pierre: Over the last few years, you’ve worked to bring awareness to a variety of intriguing but relatively obscure therapies for COVID-19 and its vaccine injuries. Where did you learn about them?
 AMD: In middle school, I noticed many of my peers were becoming addicted to things (e.g., drugs) I did not believe benefitted them. At the time, I interpreted this to mean we all had to become addicted to something, so I decided to become addicted to information and learning as much as I could under the logic that when it was all said and done, unlike many of the things I saw my peers become hooked on, my addiction would not have been a waste.
 As I started diving into all of that, I became more and more aware of how everything we thought to be true was both illusory and subjective, and more and more, I yearned to figure out what was true. Before long, this brought me into the realm of conspiracy theories, and as time went on, I became more and more curious about the allegedly suppressed medical technologies I kept on reading about.
 At some point, I decided I needed to see these firsthand and started looking around the country for people using them. Fate helped me connect with extraordinary mentors (many of whom now are sadly deceased), and they gave me various insights into medicine that, while quite sensible, were almost non-existent within the existing medical curriculum.
 Additionally, so many people I’ve been close to have been injured by pharmaceutical drugs, and each of their tragedies forced me to spend a lot of time trying to understand precisely how those drugs poisoned them. Fortunately, many of my mentors cared for patients the medical system had injured, so they were able to point me in the right direction.
 Once COVID-19 started, I realized the medical community would drop the ball on a pandemic that could easily be addressed with existing therapeutics, and my focus shifted to working with my colleagues and mentors to identify viable options for treating COVID-19. Once the wave of vaccine injuries started, I realized our previous experience exploring the frontiers of medical knowledge was necessary for healing the COVID-19 vaccine injuries, so that is where our focus has been for a while.
 Pierre: What is your mission with your Substack?
 AMD: One of the most challenging things for me with COVID-19 was how powerless I felt to address what I knew would unfold over the next few years. From the start of the pandemic, I put a lot of time into projects I thought could avert the future I saw, not because I thought they had much chance of succeeding, but because I felt I could never live with myself if this disaster unfolded. I knew I had not at least tried my best to prevent it.
 I thought that was a suitable enough psychological coping mechanism, but I nonetheless still have a lot of unresolved emotions from everything that happened. To a large extent, my motivation for writing on Substack is directed at those emotions; I finally feel like I can make a difference, that is slowly helping me come to terms with the fact I was powerless to do anything throughout the pandemic. So, my focus is always on identifying things I can write about that have the potential to move things in a positive direction.
 I also have two ulterior motives:
 The first is that because many people I have been close to were severely injured by modern medicine (and experienced the same gaslighting many of you have throughout the pandemic), I’ve always felt I owed a duty to them bring attention to their issues. Since the horrendous conduct with the COVID-19 vaccines arose from the previous widespread abuses with pharmaceuticals becoming an accepted norm, the vaccine catastrophe has provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to expose the dangers of the pharmaceutical industry. I am trying to do all I can to make the best use of that opportunity.
 The second is that many of my mentors entrusted me with information they felt the world needed to know about but was not yet ready to hear (this is a very common theme throughout history). Since I am in a position and time where people are open to hearing about those ideas, I feel a deep obligation to my teachers to share what they taught me. A few months ago, I put together  a list of the topics  I wanted to try to cover this year, and while I wish I’d done more, I have made quite a bit of progress on it. At this point, I’ve accepted it will take years to cover everything I want to cover because a lot of thought needs to go into making sure each concept is presented appropriately (as this is critical for a new idea to enter a culture successfully).
 Pierre: Do you have any other thoughts to share for our current moment?
 AMD: When I was younger, I got very upset by many things I saw governments and corporations do to both the American people and the world. I wished they could all be torn down and dismantled (essentially the anarchist perspective), then as I got older, this perspective shifted.
 This was partly because I came to appreciate that unimaginable acts of both kindness and cruelty have existed throughout human history. In turn, most of the things that got to me, in reality, were not that bad compared to many things human beings had done to each other in the past.
 More importantly, however, I started seeing examples of precisely what happened when governments disintegrated and corrupt institutions they had been built upon evaporated in the blink of an eye. I thought this would be great, but the void that replaced them was much worse. For example, typically in anarchy, the strong rapidly place the rest of the population under martial law, and all human rights go out the window. Similarly, except for the American Revolution, I do not know of any revolutions where the government that followed was not much worse than the one which preceded it.
 Few appreciate just how much work it takes to create institutions. Given how much we depend on our (immensely flawed) institutions for so many things in life, that work must be considered before the institutions are scrapped if nothing viable is present to replace them.
 As summarized in  this brief documentary , a fairly detailed playbook has been developed for triggering revolutions in other countries and disposing of governments that do not serve Western interests. One of the things that has made me really worried from observing America over the last decade is how I’ve seen more and more parts of that playbook be enacted on our shores.
 At this point in time, our country is the most polarized and fragmented it has been in my lifetime—I have now lost count of how many families and long-term friendships have been broken apart because two people disagreed on a society narrative (e.g., Trump or the Vaccines). This never happened before and signals that something is very wrong in our society.
 In my own work to fight against evil institutions (and corporations), and from observing countless others who dedicated their lives to doing that, I’ve seen that typically embracing negativity to fight the machine doesn’t work. Instead, the path that always leads to success (e.g., consider Gandhi or Martin Luther King) is to unite the populace and focus on promoting positive things people will want to embrace rather than attacking what is bad.
 A key realization for me with politics was that in most cases, if large numbers of people have diametrically opposed positions on an issue, and both sides are convinced the other is entirely wrong, in truth, both sides are partly correct, and their points deserve equal consideration. Similarly, I believe once the polarization is taken away and things stop being about just proving one’s side is correct and the other side is wrong, most people will be able to agree on the core of the issue at hand.
 I hope to encourage that form of discourse which will move us away from being divided and conquered. When you look at the course of history, certain moments come up where things have the potential to move in one of two very different directions quite rapidly, and the consequences of either can ripple out for centuries. I, and many others who have fought the COVID-19 narrative, believe we are in one of those periods. While I hesitate to claim anything with certainty, I am convinced that to arrive at the more positive future, we have to move beyond the radical polarization of the current era.
 AMD has done a lot behind the scenes over the last few years to support our movement and try to make things right. I feel AMD is a national treasure, and I believe the Forgotten Side of Medicine will continue long after COVID-19 has passed. Please consider supporting their Substack .

Summary: Who Is the Midwestern Doctor?


Another Op-Ed Attack At Fauci's Never-Ending Victory Tour

What a dystopian nightmare watching “America’s Doctor” try to continue his Covid victory tour. It is both shocking and unsurprising that he would do this despite leaving a generation of children with lower IQ scores, a U.S Life expectancy which dropped three years in the span of two, hundreds of thousands of deaths from the vaccines amongst working-age Americans (threatening the life insurance industry), millions of vaccine injured, skyrocketing disability rates, an explosion of cancers, and suddenly plummeting birth rates is just too much for me to take. So I went after him. Again. Maybe he will get the memo this time, particularly in light of the frosty receptions he has received of late from normally kid-gloved, obsequious interviewers. Enjoy (I included the Foxnews.com audio version below if interested).

 Dr. Anthony Fauci left government in December, but his media tour is going strong, albeit with a different tone and tenor. The fawning adulation and questions about his exercise regimes and bobbleheads have been replaced by skepticism and outright doubt from outlets who never dared question the all-knowing man once dubbed "America’s doctor" by The New Yorker.
 Fauci recently appeared on CNN to complain about, "a personification of me as a person who essentially closed everything down." He was responding to a lengthy sit down with the New York Times where he declared, "Show me a school that I shut down and show me a factory that I shut down. Never. I never did. I gave a public-health recommendation that echoed the C.D.C.’s recommendation, and people made a decision based on that."
 For all his faults, Fauci is no fool. One does not spend 54 years ensconced in the federal government without learning how to play politics.
 Three years removed from the worst of the COVID pandemic, the longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases knows the policy decisions guided by his medical recommendations are looking worse by the day.
 Herein lies his problem. When his ideas were in vogue, Fauci had no problem claiming responsibility. Now that the ugly consequences are coming due, he is eager to wash his hands.
 FAUCI DEFENDS HIMSELF OVER POSSIBILITY NIH LINKED TO COVID LAB-LEAK

 Video
 In the face of plummeting math and reading scores between 2020 and 2022, Fauci is especially quick to deny his role in the school shutdowns. Last fall, Fauci raised eyebrows for denying that school lockdowns, "forever irreparably damaged anyone."
 Yet as late as September 2020, Fauci recommended that schools only open back up once the virus is "under control." Earlier in the year, he had chastised Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, warning that premature re-opening "likely" lead to widespread student infection.
 Today, even left-leaning sources concede that, "kids are safe. They always have been."
 Then came the vaccines. From the outset, Fauci’s entire COVID mitigation strategy was based on an experimental vaccine rushed to market under the branding "warp speed." There had never been an mRNA-approved vaccine before, and now it was being pushed non-stop from the White House podium with the full support of the pharmaceutical industry.
 It was always highly illogical to deploy a static vaccine toward a mutagenic and constantly changing coronavirus. Then came the checks the vaccines couldn’t write. Fauci told us they would stop transmission. He implored us to "follow the science."

 Video
 Today, the science is clear: the COVID vaccine does not prevent transmission or contagion of the virus. Yet even now, Fauci continues to lament that "only 68 percent of the country is vaccinated" and says "we do really poorly" compared to the rest of the world.
 European countries like Switzerland, normally held up by American academics as worthy of emulation, are advising their citizens against the vaccine. There’s a reason that known vaccine expert Robert Kennedy Jr. is already earning the support of nearly one in five Democrat voters.
 In my private practice, I have treated more than 500 patients suffering injuries from the vaccine, I have seen the unintended -- but brutal -- harm they’ve often caused up close and personal. Yet to raise any of these issues is to risk one’s livelihood. That is Fauci’s greatest stain on our country.
 Fauci fostered an environment where doctors who deviated from the preferred party line were persecuted and even criminalized for offering a different point of view. Silencing free expression and thought is the antithesis of America, and dangerous for science, innovation, and medicine.

 Fauci blamed "misinformation and disinformation" for "really hurting so many things, including people's trust in science," yet on his watch, laws were passed that empowered government agencies to strip doctors of their medical licenses for questioning the wisdom of vaccines.

 These efforts left a profound lasting impact on medicine and the patient-doctor relationship. Suddenly physicians were forced to choose between offering their best advice or losing their ability to practice medicine.
 Anthony Fauci’s legacy is one of narcissism and power. The glorification of his massive ego trumped any scientific or medical data. His policies were giveaways to the pharmaceutical industry, which helped burnish his image and crush dissent. He saw his opportunity for the spotlight and seized it. Now, rather than admit mistakes, Fauci is intent on revising history.  Unfortunately for his legacy, we’re all living with the consequences of his hubris, and they are impossible to overlook.

Summary: Published another Op-Ed going after Fauci on FoxNews.com, one of the most visited news sites on the internet. When will he get the memo and just just crawl away into obscurity? Narcissism is a bitch.


I Finally Published An Op-Ed "Across The Aisle."

At the risk of stating the obvious, science is not politics and should have nothing to do with politics. But suddenly, in the clown world that erupted after Covid hit our shores, you had lefties promoting jabs and deriding ivermectin as a horse dewormer while the right were far more skeptical of the vaccines and more willing to critically examine the immense amount of data supporting ivermectin and HCQ.
 Shockingly, overnight it seems, the left completely forgot that one of their long-standing policy stances was against Big Pharma and corporate power. Amongst liberal media outlets, it was almost never mentioned that a policy platform of pro-jab/anti-ivermectin… was completely in-line with Big Pharma’s interests. Such is the power of unrelenting propaganda and censorship.
 Again, the left has published endless hit jobs on me, the FLCCC, our message and our guidance. The New York Times, Washington Post, LA Times, CNN, Rachel Maddow, and the entire flock of late night talk show hosts seemed to be reading from the same script. Because our message deviated from that narrative, we were depicted not as scholarly and objective authorities on Covid science, but as doctors with a political or profit agenda. The systematic smear campaign was unprecedented. Political ideology had nothing whatsoever to do with my medical practice or research, yet it wasn’t long before I was being called a “right-wing, fringe” doctor.
 Is publishing an Op-Ed in the New York Daily News a sign that the tide is turning? Does it mean the other side is finally awakening to the fact that their misplaced faith and trust in the agencies of government caused great harm to themselves as well as the rest of society? Who knows, but I will put a W in the win column here, temporarily ending the losing streak we have endured trying to get our objective guidance to all people, no matter their political persuasion. Enjoy.

 Areas of bipartisan agreement are few and far between in Washington, but improving our system of medicine by cracking down on the influence of special interests should be an area of common ground. Making strides against this destructive force will go a long way toward repairing public trust and preparing for the next health emergency. President Biden had it right when he took aim at the “record profits” of the pharmaceutical industry at his State of the Union. Congress needs to rebalance the role of a central regulatory state with the power of a doctor’s judgment in providing patients the best possible care.
 The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the weaknesses of our health infrastructure, particularly the deficiencies in researching and deploying readily available drugs. Our public health agencies put all their weight behind randomized controlled trials (RCTs). These complex, time-consuming studies were in many cases run by scientists paid by the pharmaceutical industry — and unsurprisingly concluded that pricey, new, patented drugs were best. Hospitals and health care facilities moved in lockstep with the government in demanding a forceful, uniform response. Doctors felt tremendous pressure to follow the science — not the science they observed treating patients, but the science that was enforced — and patients had few treatment options.
 We’re only beginning to understand how deeply this has disrupted medical practice. Doctors thinking critically and trusting their own experience has formed the foundation of medicine for a thousand years. They apply the scientific method, testing different approaches to heal patients, building on what works and discarding what doesn’t.
 In the early 20th century, this process was used when Alexander Fleming discovered a compound, penicillin , that prevented fungus growing in his lab. Years later, a team at Oxford tested his observation in a tiny study of just eight rats. Four treated with penicillin survived Streptococcus infection, while the other four died. That insight changed the world as the medicine was scaled up for mass treatment against bacterial infection in the ensuing decades, through World War II. Insulin was discovered around the same time when physicians noticed pancreatic secretions that affected the body’s ability to process glucose. It was observed, extracted, and then used in patients.
 This process has produced hundreds of new drugs in the last century. It’s also produced new uses for drugs. In clinical practice, doctors routinely observe how drugs intended for one use can perform another function like reducing cholesterol, moderating blood pressure, or regulating depression. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality estimates that doctors prescribe 20% of drugs “off-label” for a different use than what FDA approved.
 On our present course, where doctors are trained to be less curious and blindly follow standards of care rather than developing and testing treatment hypotheses, we’re going to see fewer medical breakthroughs. RCTs produce some useful data, but they must be complemented with the real-world evidence doctors accrue every day in practice that helps to translate our approved treatments into improved health and life expectancy. Congress can take two immediate actions to advance this goal.
 First, it can ensure adequate funding for the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, the agency within the National Institutes of Health that enhances the development of diagnostics and therapeutics. This agency can accelerate knowledge around existing molecules and combined treatments. It should add a new function to robustly collect and analyze observational work of physicians to shape a scientific framework that can more effectively advance beyond single drug trials. As we learned with COVID-19, the virus was first infectious and later a disease of excessive coagulation. These are radically different disease processes. Our system was not set up to adapt.
 Second, it needs to replenish the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, which sits inside Health and Human Services and expand the oversight and data collection capacity to assure that political bias stays out of future funding decisions. A cross-section of scientists, even contrarian ones, but especially must include experienced physicians from the community without ties to the pharmaceutical industry — the conflicts of interest must stop. If this is accomplished, I believe we could devise a method to systematically test approved drugs alongside and with expensive new molecules.
 With funding at the federal level, we can create a pathway for both individuals and groups of scientists to research new uses for old and new drugs and share their findings. This will lead to more inclusive processes for discovery of how off patent molecules can be applicable to today’s health challenges. And it will ensure that future discoveries are minimally influenced by money, special interests, and political meddling.

RFK Jr. Will be Launching His Campaign Next Week With A Major Address in Boston

Note from Pierre Kory: I consider RFK Jr. a friend; from knowing him personally, I believe he is the real deal. He wants the best for this entire country and hasn't been caught up in the madness which has taken over the Democratic party some of us used to call home.
 I believe many of us must attend his opening campaign event in Boston, MA, next Wednesday, April 19th, at 10 a.m. (the information for the event can be found  here ). I am going and hope to see you there! Note it is the same day as the famous Battle at Lexington and Concord, a.k.a “The Shot Heard ‘Round the World” which was preceded by Paul Revere’s midnight ride to warn the colonial militia that the “British were coming.” Also recall that our country was born by men fighting tyranny. And that’s what RFK Jr. has always been about, fighting corporate tyranny.
 RFK Jr. running in this campaign will bring attention to our nation's most critical issues. If we can have a large showing at his opening event, it will force the media also to cover these topics throughout the campaign and amplify them so they can reach the general public.
 Because of the importance of this moment, I requested A Midwestern Doctor, who authors  The Forgotten Side of Medicine , to write a brief guest post on RFK Jr.'s run :

 One of the depressing things about politics is how fake everything is now. Politicians routinely adopt the idea and message that fits the needs of the current political climate even if they blatantly contradict their previous positions and behaviors (Tucker Carlson recently  did a popular segment  that provides one of the best illustrations I have seen of this behavior).
 Because of this, you can expect most politicians (especially those supported by the corporate media) to refrain from honoring any promises they made while campaigning that conflict with those of large corporate interests. Honest politicians are few and far between, and everyone is searching for them in these challenging times.
 I believe RFK Jr. fits that mold because of what my friends who know him directly have told me and because RFK Jr. has a very long track record of doing the right thing and (often successfully) fighting against corporate interests that are abusing the American public. Additionally, because of his family background, he is someone who could unite the country, something which is essential now due to how deeply divided we are as a nation.
 In my opinion, the primary reason RFK Jr. is running is to have a platform to bring a few  critical  concepts to the awareness of the American public, which no prominent politician is currently speaking out about. Those issues are as follows:
 1.  The catastrophic consequences our children are facing due to the out-of-control childhood vaccine program (which is both dangerous and unnecessary). Consider for a moment  this chart  produced by RFK Jr.’s organization, the Children’s Health Defense .

 Chronic illnesses are widespread amongst children today that virtually did not exist 30 years ago and directly correlate to the increasing uptake of vaccinations. It's hard to put into words the magnitude of this catastrophe or its costs to society. Sadder still, many conditions, such as the variety of other debilitating autoimmune disorders childhood vaccinations cause, are not even included in the chart.
 2.  RFK Jr. fully understands the scope of the COVID-19 fiasco and knows how to bring home the catastrophe many of us have witnessed to each voter. The issue is bubbling near the surface, and it is ready to go viral with the correct stimulus. More importantly, he also knows how to link these events to what has also happened with childhood vaccines and make the public motivated to do something about both of them.
 3.  The central problem underlying all the issues we face now is regulatory capture, where corporations buy out government regulators. Once this corruption occurs, rather than the regulators preventing bad behavior by predatory corporations, they actively work to shield them and instead target those corporations' competitors (e.g., independent physicians trying to treat COVID-19 with off-patent medications). I've tried to show how this has happened in branches of the government (e.g., in  the CDC ,  the FDA ,  the NIH , and  the entire H.H.S .), but in reality, I've only scratched the surface of this issue, and as years go by it keeps on getting worse .
 It's sad, but this satirical clip, in many ways, describes where things are currently at:

 RFK Jr. has spent his entire career fighting against regulatory capture. Before taking up the vaccine safety issue (which he suffered significant backlash for doing), he was a famous and highly regarded environmental lawyer who fought to keep corporations from polluting communities. Environmental litigation is a highly challenging field to succeed in (because the deck is stacked so much in the polluter’s favor), but he nonetheless was successful. This work forced him to continually confront regulatory capture, and that experience has allowed him to later call it out and fight against it as an advocate for vaccine safety.
 Given that most people are not even aware of “regulatory capture,” it is critical that someone can give a voice to it as it affects so many aspects of our life.
 4. It is very possible the most crucial issue facing us today is the federal government attempting to introduce a digital currency (I and others suspect the rumors of the dollar’s demise as the world’s reserve currency is being used to push it through). If a digital currency is enacted, many things and freedoms we take for granted go out the door. I hesitate to say this, but I believe its adoption could be the turning point that marks the decline of the American Republic into a technocratic dictatorship (similar to how  Caesar ,  Crassus , and  Pompey  were responsible for shifting the Roman Republic to an empire).
 Presently RFK Jr. is one of the only people speaking out against this:

 We are in a very unusual political climate. Specifically:
 •There is presently no strong candidate in the Democratic party who can grab the spotlight, and much of the Democratic electorate is disgusted with the direction their party has gone in and want the party to go back to its roots. Because of this, if RFK Jr. can build up momentum from the moment he launches his campaign, he will have to be part of the conversation. The media has tacitly admitted this since the moment RFK Jr. filed his candidacy, hit pieces against him for being an “anti-vaxxer,” immediately  appeared  in numerous mainstream publications.
 •A significant portion of the Republican base agrees with many or all four of these issues. Since Trump has such an enormous lead in the primary polling, many members of the Republican electorate can afford to jump parties to support RFK Jr. in the primaries (as Trump will win the primaries irrespective of their votes) before voting for Trump in the general election.
 •The public is  extremely upset  about the COVID-19 vaccines. For example, in this poll from late December, 49% of Americans thought the COVID-19 vaccines were causing many unexplained deaths, and 28% reported that they knew someone they thought had died from a vaccine. That is huge and something I do not believe any degree of propaganda can gaslight the population into ignoring. So, if someone speaks out publicly on the issue and has a record to back it up, people will listen.
 Because of these factors, I think RFK Jr. has a very good shot of becoming a serious contender in the primaries, being repeatedly interviewed, and being present in each presidential debate. Since he is a lawyer and the truth is on his side, he will move the issue forward whenever the vaccine subject is brought up, regardless of how hostile the interviewer is.

 Conclusion
 Since I entered medicine and saw firsthand the harm vaccines did to children around me, which almost all of  my colleagues were blind to , like many before me who could also see it, I have desperately wanted to do something to change this paradigm. Unfortunately, while some awareness was brought to the subject, we were powerless to stop the proliferation of more and more dangerous vaccines.
 Because this has been allowed to run unchecked, we’ve seen a catastrophic decline in the health and vitality of our species. I’ve now lost count of how many mothers I’ve spoken to who told me they decided not to vaccinate one child and couldn’t believe how many different diseases they thought were normal the unvaccinated child didn’t have. Similarly, I can often immediately identify unvaccinated children, and it makes me very sad their vibrancy is the exception rather than the rule now.
 Most of the time, when something unbelievable happens, it builds on a problem simmering in the background, which almost everyone ignored. If something had been done to address the childhood vaccine catastrophe we’ve watched unfold over the decades (especially after it kicked into overdrive  in 1986  because Fauci brokered a deal that gave the manufacturers immunity from their products harming or  killing  children), the COVID-19 vaccines would never have happened.
 What we’ve watched unfold with the COVID-19 vaccines is a tragedy beyond words and shows what happens when a greedy industry that has captured its regulators is allowed to run unchecked. At the same time, the events were so out of line that much of the public is finally becoming aware of the whole vaccine disaster, and we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something about this entire issue.

If there is any way you can make it to RFK Jr.’s opening event (or have friends near MA who can), please consider doing so. We need to do something to fix this, and because of how the media works, this is a very concrete step each of us can take.
 As an additional bonus, Steve Kirsch will be there, so you can meet him as well. :)

Summary: Please Consider Attending This Historic Event


Hillingdon Hospital Nightmare #2

The below story was taken from an email she sent me and Paul Marik after she read our last post called “T he Hillingdon Hospital Nightmare of Dr. Paul Marik. ” Short, funny, and a bit less disturbing than Paul’s post - enjoy.

 From Jackie :
 Oh my word. A blast from the past.
 Flashbacks. That’s hilarious.
 It’s the Hillingdon hospital near Heathrow.
 I did 2 locums there ( locums = temporary contracts which pay independant doctors to fill in gaps in hospital staff coverage) .
 Never again.
 The second was a 48 hr psychiatry senior house officer shift. The locum agency offered to pay me double the weekend rate to do a Saturday/Sunday 48 hour shift. I liked the lady who ran the show and she literally BEGGED me to do the job.
 I was told by the psychiatry nurses after morning rounds that nothing was going on as everyone was stable (sedated in their rocking chairs) - so I went and helped out in the emergency room because I was bored.
 I got into HUGE trouble for putting in a chest drain on a tension pneumothorax in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( emphysema )– although I had done an emergency room locum there before - I was apparently “acting out of my scope of practice” as a psychiatry senior house officer. ( Fun fact: South African doctors are probably the most diversely skilled doctors in the world as their clinical training experiences places them into innumerable situations where they are granted premature autonomy and responsibility to meet the needs of patients without oversight or back-up. They are forced to learn tricks and procedures to keep patients alive in chaotic situations most Western trained doctors are never placed in).
 Apparently I should have waited for the Cardio-Thoracic surgical team– who arrived 4 hours after the patient would have died and then bollocked me as I had sent the (now stable) patient to the regular hospital ward.
 Then the cardio-thoracic fellow returned to casualty and asked me to teach him the Groote Schuur slip knot I used to secure the tube. Which he then presented as his own invention at a Cardio-Thoracic conference in Oxford.
 While I was in the emergency room - a psychiatric patient who must have been overlooked in the morning sedative round, escaped his rocking chair and dismantled ALL of the beds in the ward with a butter knife and threw the pieces (bedframes, legs etc – out the 2 nd  story window – which somehow did not kill any passers-by).
 The nurses finally worked out there was a problem at the 7pm handover as the other inmates were getting restless, having nowhere to sleep. Fortunately, he hadn’t thrown out the mattresses as they were those thick ones full of old springs that sag in the middle.
 They called me to sedate all the people that didn’t want to sleep on a mattress on the floor while the fire brigade collected all the bits of bed.
 Sadly they looked nothing like the Australian Firefighters calendar.
 It was bizarre, surreal and hilariously funny.
 I kid you not.
 The Hillingdon was near Harefield hospital where they did all the transplants.
 I wonder if Hillingdon was not the Organ Donor site.
 Anyone who survived Hillingdon has my everlasting respect. That’s resilience.
