Original Article

In an ordinary time, this admission from the CEO of Pfizer would end all the COVID-19 rules, regulations and vaccination passport efforts. Alas, we are not in ordinary times. dmitting that none of the vaccines have any value in stopping people from contracting the infection, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla stated the following earlier today. WATCH: [01:35] “We know the two-dose vaccine offers very limited protection, if any. The three doses with a booster, offers reasonable protection against hospitalization and death.”

I was pretty sure of this about February of 2020, why I decided to never take their "vaccines".

Never take any type of drug when the government gives Big Pharma an exemption on liability. CDC, NIH, FDA, Fauci, Birx, most of the medical field knew this. Start looking for a real doctor that advised against this medication.

Charge them with reckless endangerment of human life and negligent homicide for all those who died undergoing these Mengele-style "drug experiments" sanctioned by a deranged, power hungry old man heading up an out of control Federal Bureaucracy.

How do you even respond to this? In normal times, this guy would be going to jail for the harm he has done. When do the lies of these pharmaceutical companies along with the actions of the Biden administration rise to the level of crimes against humanity? They withheld and are still withholding drug therapies that are effective. Who knows how many lives could have been saved? This callus, arrogant, disregard for human life and suffering is unlike anything we have ever seen in this country and the scale of the lies alone should call for immediate resignation and full prosecution. A hard lesson has been learned. We can trust no one.

At this moment, my 9 year old great nephew is in the ICU of a pediatric cardiology unit in Gainesville, FL because he developed very sudden and very serious heart problems. Out of nowhere. There is no history at all of heart issues in the entire family. I have not been able to find out if he was given the clot shots, but his parents are kool-aid drinking lefties so it wouldn’t surprise me if they got all three of their kids jabbed. We need another round of the Nuremberg Trials - this is mass murder on a global scale.

There is much righteous anger in the comments to the article. One that gave me pause: 'Don’t lose it, focus it. Consider how may of us are here (and other sites) daily, willing to write our opinions on the internet. Others just read, or “like” but they leave a footprint.' True enough. Unfortunately the Evil Left is keeping track of ALL our comments on ALL these sites. It wouldn't take their tech people 2 minutes to learn where to come find and round us up. And if they steal 2022, I believe they will. At best, after 2024.

I found out my son (31) was prone to epileptic seizures. Looking back, he'd been having symptoms and small ones. That changed 24 hours after he had his second shot. Full Grand Mal. Several more over the next 6 weeks and three trips to the ER. Our delightful health care workers (so essential!!) didn't listen to us when we described the seizures until we recorded them on a phone the third time it happened. They viewed it and exclaimed "Oh, that's a seizure." He's on meds now and seizure free for 6 months. In a way, it's good we found out he had a condition and that it was limited in effect. But don't kid yourself that these are fully tested and safe. And that they are vaccines. Vaccines give you a dead or weakened form of the virus/bug so your body can create antibodies. This meddles with your dna in an attempt to impede the virus from replicating. And it does a poor job at that. Ask Eric Clapton.

After the rapid approval of the "vaccines," I adopted a "wait and see" attitude instead of rushing out for the jabs. With every day that passes, I see less and less reason to get jabbed. A "vaccine" that doesn't prevent a disease is pretty useless in my book. The current assertion that it prevents a serious case is also rather weak when you're looking at a virus with a less than 1% mortality rate. Add the reported side effects to the mix, and I'm trending towards the "no way in hell," school towards the vaccines.

Just think, Bourla. If you had done the proper level of research and testing on your so-called vaccine before going live with it, you would have abandoned further development and called your efforts a failure. You would have concluded it was ineffective yet dangerous at the same time and should have arrived at the same conclusion that "...the two-dose vaccine offers very limited protection, if any". Meanwhile, you, biden the cheater, Cuomo, big pharma, and the msm continued to badmouth the medications that are highly effective against covid that would have saved many lives. You knowingly made a multi-billion dollar bet to develop and sell a fraudulent and dangerous product. Why? Just follow the money, right? Same o, same o. Goula, you belong in prison.

Sounds like a stunt to get more people to take the booster or boosters. The number of people getting a booster is far lower than the number of people who got the first two shots, and it's eating into their profits. The projection they had for the profit margin with the third and possibly fourth shots was for huge gains well into 2024. But if far fewer people are getting the third shot, their projections are going to be way off. This hurts the price of the stock.

Lamest justification for the booster I have ever heard. The first two shots won't help you, but the third one will? If the first two shots weren't useful, why should the third? Slowly but surely, the pharmaceuticals are coming to grips that their 'vaccine' is worthless, and very likely harmful. As long as the pharmaceuticals continue to support their vaccines, the government will continue to support their mandate. As soon as the pharmaceuticals back away from the vaccine, the mandate becomes untenable and ends. The quickest way to end the mandate may be by going after the pharmaceuticals and pressuring them to stop supporting their worthless and deadly vaccine.

Basically Pfizer is saying, get a booster because your two shots were too long ago to do much if any good. Sounds like a setup for boosters every six months. Three things worth considering: 1. How did COVID-19 get started? 2. Who is making money off this disease? 3. Who is gaining more power from the disease? The answer to all three is definitely not "we the people." Rather, it is corrupt governments; it is big corporations; it is power-hungry politicians and unelected officials.

An interesting series of updates to the FBI whistleblower case of Joe Biden taking a $5 million bribe payment which now looks to have originated in Ukraine. The background claim is pretty basic. A whistleblower approached congress stating the FBI had a report, an unclassified FD-1023, detailing a conversation with a ‘confidential human source’ (CHS) that outlined Vice President Joe Biden taking a $5 million payment from a foreign national to affect a U.S. policy decision. The FBI agent responsible for investigating the CHS claim was FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten, a sketchy character from the Trump-Russia probe.

Dean died in hospital on Tuesday after a sudden illness, his family said on social media. He was fired from Spirit AeroSystems in April 2023. Earlier this year, Dean spoke with NPR about being fired

CBS News is reporting that the Biden administration wants to bring some refugees from Gaza to the United States. CBS says documents obtained from the White House reveal that "senior officials across several federal U.S. agencies have discussed the practicality of different options to resettle Palestinians from Gaza who have immediate family members who are American citizens or permanent residents." The CBS report continues, “The plans would require coordination with Egypt, which has so far refused to welcome large numbers of people from Gaza. Those who pass a series of eligibility, medical and security screenings would qualify to fly to the U.S. with refugee status,

Five West Virginia middle-school track athletes who protested the participation of a transgender student in a recent competition have been barred from future meets and are now engaged in a legal battle with their school district that could end up at the Supreme Court. On April 18, during the 2024 Harrison County Middle School Championships, the student athletes — all girls — made local headlines by stepping out of the shot-put circle, choosing to forfeit rather than compete against a 13-year-old transgender female. The silent protest came after a federal appeals court struck down part of West Virginia's transgender sports ban, allowing the 13-year-old in question to compete

Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke admitted Wednesday that she was arrested and chose not to disclose the legal matter during her Senate confirmation process because it had been expunged from her record. During her 2021 confirmation process, Clarke, who now heads the Justice Department’s civil rights division, was asked by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) in a questionnaire if she’d “ever been arrested for or accused of committing a violent crime against any person.” To which Clarke responded, “No.” The Daily Signal reported on Tuesday that Clarke was arrested in Maryland in relation to a domestic violence complaint back in 2006.

New York— Even as many Americans say they learn about the 2024 election campaign from national news outlets, a disquieting poll reveals some serious trust issues. About half of Americans, 53%, say they are extremely or very concerned that news organizations will report inaccuracies or misinformation during the election. Some 42% express worry that news outlets will use generative artificial intelligence to create stories, according to a poll from the American Press Institute and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Israel earlier this week, speaking loudly and waving a small stick. While Blinken ostensibly represents America's national interests abroad, his job in Israel is all about Presidentish Joe Biden's reelection bid — and how Israeli's defensive military actions in the Gaza Strip are complicating things for Biden at home. Blinken met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in hopes, once more, of getting a temporary ceasefire with Hamas. A truce would "give us something to build on," Blinken said. Who is this "us," Kemosabe, and what are we trying to build? Hamas has rejected every offer for a ceasefire
