A recent paper co-authored by none other than “Little Tony” Fauci is gaining some attention (I hasten to add that the moniker “Little Tony” has nothing to do with his net worth):
There used to be the Smith Mundt Act which at least prohibited the State Dept from propagandizing US citizens but it was amended to allow it as long as it was primarily for a foreign audience.
It sucks when a stupid DVD makes one laugh and the spouse says 'I can't even get your attention for a second!' But laughter is soooo needed anymore. Appreciate the memories NFO! (WRH)
I think I mentioned this before, shortly after the hysteria hit the fan I had a doctors appointment. He asked if I had or planned to get the jab. I told him I was a voluntary subject in the control group and I let him know how it worked out. He looked at me for a moment, then burst out laughing. He said mind if I use that line? Docs pretty cool.
I got a card printed saying just that. Some group was organising it. It looked very official and I even got into several restaurants without a mask must by flashing it.
That is awesome, I wish I had thought of that. I did have some questionable worse case scenario docs, Fortunately I live in FL so they were never necessary.
Great idea! I like it and enjoyed the smile, thanks.
My Doctor, younger woman, had a close girlfriend die after Vaccine but with Covid. She was okay with my refusal to do the 'jab', respecting my choice. Altho', at the time she thought I was nuts, after all her friend died from covid! I wonder, if today, she might think differently knowing how much death is being caused by the 'vaccine'. I probably won't ask tho', out of mutual respect. (WRH)
Yes, Wayne, I wonder what doctors do think about the jab today. I wonder if they wake up at 4 in the morning with the shivers. They could have killed this by saying no.
You’ll never convince the masked hoards wearing their masks driving alone, jogging in the woods, recovering from illness claiming it would have been worse but for the life saving fourth dose or fifth shot or whatever.
I have a 75 year old cousin who suddenly suffered terrible brain seizures and was unable to speak coherently. They rushed him to the hospital and were unable to diagnose his condition. After over seventy days days of various treatments he has slowly recovered ans is in rehab and will go home soon. The best they can come up with is sone kind of benign brain tumor was somehow activated! Definitely not a strike. He is the type of person who never questioned the conventional wisdom, etc. followed every directive, took every booster. What do you think happened? I never dared speculate my opinion to the family. Liberals to the last one! My uneducated assumption has to do with the spike protein crossing the brain barrier. But what do I know? I just read this stuff here and all the misinformation on Alex berenson etc.
He Joseph K, The posting by Mark here shows the contempt for human life and our values as living, breathing beings. It will be decades of discovery as this horror unfolds. I pray your cousin recovers and does ok. Our political choices shouldn't come at the expense of our lives. Freedom, freedom of choice and freedom to just say no seem to be alien anymore. Best Regards, (WRH)
I knew it, I knew it! From the start, the whole vaccine push seemed very fishy to me, but it was after I heard Dr. Simone Gold talk about the fact that there has NEVER been ANY successful vaccine developed for any of the common cold viruses, the coronaviruses and RSV that validated my suspicions. And of course, she was vilified and had to serve jail time, yet, for stating the truth. That sealed the deal for me. There was no way I was ever going submit myself to any mRNA vaccine. Fauci is only the most visible face of this travesty. Bill Gates, as the man behind the scene, should also be charged and face severe punishment for his role in this. This whole thing still enrages me, three years after the fact.
Hello Lizzy_D, Statistics demonstrate that since the Virus Vaccine thing started, infections rates may actually be worse. If I recall, Alex B. has share studies on such as he presented arguments about Covid 19 mRNA stuff. Another suppression of truth: is it not odd that in just about every aspect of our Gov't Truth has been a victim. I guess it supports their agendas to hide from it. My regards Ma'am. (WRH)
*to clarify, I said "Virus Vaccine thing" meaning Flu-shots. There are decades of results Alex B. draws upon that demonstrate actual case rate increases - universally! I rejected Covid vax because the previous Flu-Shot I took left me sick for 2 weeks (vs. a 3 day flu bout?!) That was in the 1990's. I simply choose to suffer the actual bug and have an actual immune response including some permanent benefits of REAL immunity. (WRH)
Just one more outrage to add to an ever growing list!! I vividly remember Fauci pontificating on how important masks and getting the stab were in “defeating Covid”,
what a lying sack of bovine excrement.
The thought that this guy walked away with a giant pension intact is infuriating. Mr. “I am science” was and is nothing more than a two bit huckster who should immediately be arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of law. Oh, I forgot, should have said prosecuted to the fullest extent of the “rules”. Guess that’s not gonna happen then, right.
Don’t know about anybody else, but my rageometer is broken from constantly being pegged.
Right--and the way the police in many places were just fine with oppressing, bullying, and even brutalizing their fellow citizens. There was, in Australia, one high ranking police official who did resign over this.
The police are not our friends. However, on a more positive note, two cops here in Switzerland who manhandled and stripped an old guy for not wearing a mask got punished.
My too many words diluted my past references to the lack of necessary components to do Biden's 'electric take-over' of transportation. Plus not enough electricity to run our growing country let alone demand for 'all electric everything' (Trucks to stoves). Any hydrogen, an actually dense enough stored energy to power heavy equipment financially worthwhile is NOWHERE on the horizon as being promoted by our 'leaders'. Meanwhile, the US will need 30-50 years to 'move' or, rather, evolve to alternate power from 'Fossil' fuels (which aren't from fossils, but I digress).
Yet, like war and spending money to fix our economy, stupid is as stupid is doing. (WRH)
Ps., Hey, maybe they can power cars with Covid mRNA stuff? just as likely as working as a vaccine...
Precious metals mining with huge costs to pretend we are killing the earth with global warm... I mean climate change. Excuses to control we the people at the price of lives, freedom and, it turns out, huge damage to the earth. Hypocrisy is too weak a word to describe that madness! I'm a great fan of hope; love your name and appreciate the info & Link! (WRH)
We need to charge Fauci for one of his MANY crimes (starting w/ murder of "throw away" children under his "care" forced to take experimental AIDS drugs in 1980's-no informed consent, no advocates of children allowed, many deaths of children absolutely no information learned) and he needs to TALK about what he knows. Lock him up (for his own good and continued survival) & let him know he needs to "come clean" on everything. We wanna know about Africa "vaccinations", involuntary sterilization, and biowarfare "advancements"- illegal, legal + everything in between.
"The defamatory accusation of antisemitism has become a go-to, all-purpose strategy for de-legitimizing those who speak of inconvenient COVID truths on both sides of the Atlantic. I guess calling Kennedy an anti-vaxxer is no longer effective, so they had to reach for an even more potent defamatory characterization. Similar to the accusations made by certain unnamed persons attacking Mattias Desmet (and by extension myself)." That last bit.
Is it some vain attempt to get sympathy? Oh my, I've been unfairly accused, it's like I've been accused of anti-semitism?
As I understood Peter Breggin's criticism of Desmet, it was that Desmet found the victims of the covid hysteria were to blame for the authorities over-reach in the C19 crisis. So, imagine that. Blame the victim. Why would anyone in their right mind associate with a person who would claim that? Unless of course you're worried about blame coming your way.
I don't particularly buy into Desmet's theories, but I think it's a simplification--at best--to say that he "blames the victim." Certainly people who succumbed to the mass Covid hysteria have some responsibility for their response and so share in the blame. To say that doesn't absolve the propagators of the hysteria.
I’m in my mid-50’s. During my life prior to 2020 I was either blissfully unaware or living in a matrix of sorts. Seems like the country I thought I knew is not that and maybe never was.
Said to my wife last night, “do you remember saying the Pledge of Allegiance and singing My Country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty...”every morning at school? She said, “Yes, I do.” I grew up in Massachusetts just north of Boston. Every morning we stood up, faced the flag, hands over hearts and sang. Can anyone imagine that now being done in school now??
Maybe I’ve said this before but guys like Fauci outta be tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail. Lock him up in stocks in the town square and throw tomatoes at his sorry a**. Too bad shame doesn’t really exist anymore.
Throw tomatoes at his sorry a**? Hey, then maybe he could say he's in mid-trans and having his first period! "Bring me the coat, Tex! Uh, I mean the Kotex!"
The matrix TPR mentions is new, our country was a special place 'in time and space'. The last paragraph of Marks post explains a steepening slippery slope, if not now a cliff, of an assault that got a big start in the Raw, I mean New Deal, gained a strong leg in "The Great Society" [bolstered by the advent in the early 50's of the Military/Industrial complex President Eisenhower warned about] and got a 3rd, free-standable platform leg added in the Obama 'We are All Socialists Now" gig. The communist/Marxist intentions and plans that destroy that country you recall, TPR, has evolved in our memory. This country retains much good-the foundation laid in the Constitution was meant to resist this cr@p but whether it will return, capable of being impeded if not stopped, remains to be experienced. There are many waking up and already aware. For me, I try to take care of my immediate responsibilities within close proximity. I'll try to get good, honest patriotic servants elected that starts locally. School board members, council members, I speak with the Mayor of my rural town regularly and continue to vote state and national elections but with diminishing trust. I don't own an F-15 but M-4 and other, smaller and less expensive stuff I do have. coyotes don't require those Green-Tip rounds (the 22 does fine) but I have some. It is simply all I know to do. I hope to learn, be a part of a revolt against the revolt of socialism when enough becomes enough for the awoken. I will confess I've left off beginning this all in my Faith in God, His salvation in Christ and the Hope there-in. Blessings and thanks friends. (WRH)
I agree with both your points, Wayne. Building locally - especially with family and neighbours - is the best option for us ordinary folks. We can't change much at the higher level. And yes, getting closer to God. Amen to that! Have a good weekend, my friend!
S'21, sincerely - thank you. Not my place, nor cause, to confer a 'religious' thing on you, (or any in these comments). I appreciate your understanding. Hope your weekend is one of those 'refresh and recharge' ones, too! (WRH)
Ps. S'21- I'm (obviously) a bit wordy. You rocked it when you got 2 points from that comment! I confess, I couldn't have said how many points I might-a made! - :^p - (WRH)
J6 WAS worse, if you consider it to have been a Reichstag fire' type operation, staged by Pelosi and the Capitol police with the cooperation of the FBI, with the intention of cementing Molly Ball's desired outcome in place. To this day the J6ers merit neither a trial or decent conditions of imprisonment. Babbitt was shot, Boyland was beaten to death, and the people who were told by President Trump to go home after the rally were enticed to enter the Capitol, only to be persecuted afterward. The evil people who gave us the virus, and then prevented doctors from employing the remedies President Trump was pushing, which worked, were terrible, but there was a public emergency that had to be addressed. We cannot issue a blanket condemnation to doctors and others who tried to cope with the situation as best they could, hindered as they were by the Faucis, the politicians and the media. J6 was a staged event, a political putsch, unprecedented in American history and with untold consequences for the future of this country. Will we ever be a democracy again?
What Mark wrote could equally apply to Covid and J6: "this complete disaster in our public life is a metaphor for the decline of our entire body politic, a careening down the slippery slope of the insane liberal assault on human dignity and human nature."
Perle, your comment reminds me of my absolute frustration with our US Gov't 'state of affairs'. Billions of $'s damage in riots - endorsed by the democrats CLEARLY (remember the bail-out funds our now VP encouraged?!), dozens of police killed in those 'mostly-peaceful' protests, thousands of other deaths ongoing because policing has been turned on it's head, another reminder - those "Not Insurrectionists" that invaded Kavenaugh hearings (and the 2016 denial of elections results protests that were akin to that) and on and on (and on and on).
Okay, I will calm down now, Mark (Wauck).
I will agree with a minor point Mark (commenter) notes: we must be careful not to 'lose the argument' with hyperbole - the facts are indecent enough. It seems supposedly to be okay for dem's to rant, rave make up or simply exacerbate facts, but that's with the MSM support and a indoctrinated and ready audience of lemmings. I don't know if that's exactly what he was driving at. Frustration that causes extreme sarcasm I can relate to yet serves only to dilute the facts. A tough place we're forced to be in. My best to you Sir! (WRH)
You have a view that is unbalanced from where I stand.
"We cannot issue a blanket condemnation to doctors and others (?) who tried to cope with the situation as best they could".
J6 was worse than the bioweapon virus, the lockdown (just 2 weeks) the masks, the death shots, the mandates, the vax passports, the adverse effects, the thousands and thousands of DEATHS? The universal abrogation of human rights, never mind democratic rights, not for 1 county but for almost the entire world?
Sorry don't buy it.
That's almost as bad as what Desmet was criticised for. Blame the victim.
That’s the really sad part of this whole wretched situation, Fauci and his ilk knew this thing was pure undiluted BS from the outset and yet it was a spectacular success because they managed to cow a large percentage of people into believing it and hopping onboard. To this day I still see people wearing a mask while driving alone in their cars!
Fauci and the gang sold a bunch of kool -aid and snake oil to a whole lotta folks.
I’m wondering just how high the percentage of people that you can fool all of the time has gotten.
I will never forget the day our offices started locking down. Several of us talking as we were packing up. I blurted "What are the odds a 'mystery virus' sweeps the US just as Trump delivers the best economy in 50 years...and after 3+ years of utter insanity from Leftie Leftie Democrats?"
All of us right there agreed it looked like a political A-bomb...
But there was no way we could have predicted the levels of global collusion and their willingness to burn the planet to its core to maintain power...
Upside is we now know the true* faces of evil, their names and where they hide.
It is just one example, albeit nearly incomprehensible, of just how profoundly morally putrid so many of humanity have become.
Why isn’t this criminal?
There should be a law that prevents the government from lying and cheating and tricking the population
There used to be the Smith Mundt Act which at least prohibited the State Dept from propagandizing US citizens but it was amended to allow it as long as it was primarily for a foreign audience.
Ha! I get it--who passes the laws? That's why what most people see as corruption is actually legal.
Only if trump supporters did it

It seems supposedly to be okay for dem's to rant, rave make up or simply exacerbate facts, but that's with the MSM support and a indoctrinated and ready audience of lemmings. I don't know if that's exactly what he was driving at. Frustration that causes extreme sarcasm I can relate to yet serves only to dilute the facts. A tough place we're forced to be in. My best to you Sir! (WRH)
Nah.
You have a view that is unbalanced from where I stand.
"We cannot issue a blanket condemnation to doctors and others (?) who tried to cope with the situation as best they could".
J6 was worse than the bioweapon virus, the lockdown (just 2 weeks) the masks, the death shots, the mandates, the vax passports, the adverse effects, the thousands and thousands of DEATHS? The universal abrogation of human rights, never mind democratic rights, not for 1 county but for almost the entire world?
Sorry don't buy it.
That's almost as bad as what Desmet was criticised for. Blame the victim.
Oh I get it. You're being sarcastic!
Calm down.
Got it. Civilized discourse.
Apologies to Perle.
That’s the really sad part of this whole wretched situation, Fauci and his ilk knew this thing was pure undiluted BS from the outset and yet it was a spectacular success because they managed to cow a large percentage of people into believing it and hopping onboard. To this day I still see people wearing a mask while driving alone in their cars!
Fauci and the gang sold a bunch of kool -aid and snake oil to a whole lotta folks.
I’m wondering just how high the percentage of people that you can fool all of the time has gotten.
And people go about their daily life as usual, talking about sport, listening to their playlists, buying useless stuff online....
Exactly why the psycopathic Fauci knew he could get away with conning so many, damn the grievous harm he inflicted.
I will never forget the day our offices started locking down. Several of us talking as we were packing up. I blurted "What are the odds a 'mystery virus' sweeps the US just as Trump delivers the best economy in 50 years...and after 3+ years of utter insanity from Leftie Leftie Democrats?"
All of us right there agreed it looked like a political A-bomb...
But there was no way we could have predicted the levels of global collusion and their willingness to burn the planet to its core to maintain power...
Upside is we now know the true* faces of evil, their names and where they hide.
Yes!
