This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And indeed, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!
…and we will have fun doing it, too!
The Rules
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.

Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year:
loxodrome
noun
line on the globe equally oblique to all meridians
an imaginary line on the surface of a sphere that crosses all meridians at the same angle, known also as a rhumb line
a curve on a surface of revolution that cuts all the meridians at a constant angle αα. If αα is an acute or obtuse angle, then a loxodrome performs infinitely many windings about the pole, getting closer and closer to it.
How I Made Scientific and God’s Peace with the Bryan Ardis Snake Venom Conspiracy Theory of COVID-19 and the Vaccines
I like Bryan Ardis. I like Stew Peters. I love Stew’s show. I love that Stew Peters gives people like Bryan Ardis a forum, when nobody else will. Thanks to Stew Peters, critical messages from Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, Jane Ruby, Karen Kingston, and many others have gotten out to the world. Even earlier messages from Bryan Ardis. In my opinion, Stew’s a hero.
However, getting the TRUTH out has a price. Sometimes stuff that’s not quite truth rides along with it.
A recent special presentation of the Stew Peters Show called Watch The Water – which is basically an interview of Bryan Ardis by Stew – is an excellent example of paying that price.
I’m not going to review the whole thing. Let me just say that Bryan Ardis makes some great scientific analogies (which many of us professional scientists have made, over the last two years), but then overdoes them by asserting they are LITERAL REALITY.
OY VEY!
Many of us have used protein venoms as a teaching tool about the pathogenicity of the spike protein. I have done MULTIPLE posts talking about the spike protein, and even called it the “snake protein” in quotes.
In fact, the title of the first reference below is pretty much my argument with Bryan Ardis.
Using Principles of Protein Equivalence and Analogy as Predictive Tools for Coronavirus Understanding Surely you’ve heard of the BROWN RECLUSE SPIDER. The brown recluse is related to several other recluses, and a couple of other families of spiders, that all have a similar venom – a protein called sphingomyelinase D. This is an enzyme that …
TL;DR – you MUST listen to a short podcast of a scientist revealing the latest research on the spike protein vaccines. The VACCINE ITSELF (not just the spike protein – the mRNA vaccine itself) is persistent and is not only concentrating in ovaries – THE VACCINE ITSELF IS EXCRETED – e.g., in breast milk. Meaning …
A Beautiful Demonstration of Real Science in Action, and How Political Correctness Prevents Obvious Correlations and Causations From Being Seen by Monetarily Dependent Scientists Being “Sherlock Holmes” is easy, when everybody else in mainstream science has turned into a character from “The Muppets” or “Sesame Street”. Except for Dr. Charles Hoffe, plus a bunch of …
As a young science student in the 1970s, I never would have thought that I would have to correct the American and global media over an issue of late 19th century basic science, but yet, here we are. When basic theories of MATTER and CHEMISTRY proved that “Compound A created by one route has the …
However, in science, just like math, there is a difference between ANALOGY and EQUIVALENCE.
So here is an analogy about analogies not being equivalence.
Ardis’ mistake would be (somewhat badly) analogous to going from “Helium inhalation makes people talk like Donald Duck, which is so gay,” to “Helium inhalation is a Disney plot to turn kids gay.”
Yeah, these statements are kinda similar, but they are NOT identical.
Ardis didn’t HAVE TO GO all the way to saying “it’s not a virus and a spike protein – it’s snake venom”, and “remdesivir is really snake venom”, but he did, and now it’s too late.
I highly recommend just watching the video. Yes, it’s an hour that you will never get back, but I only ask that you watch it until you either finish it, or turn it off and shake your head.
I think I’ve found all the “watch the water” links.
However, I am going to add one more, as a kind of “negative control”.
You see, almost anything can be “watch the water” if you look hard enough.
eilert brought in this tweet video, and EllieLA noted that the surfer sails past a large and almost distinct “Q” composed of foam on the water – beginning at exactly 17 seconds.
See for yourself!

So – is THAT what “watch the water” – the QAnon phrase – means?
Or does it mean, like the title implies, that they’re putting VENOMS in the water supply?
Who KNOWS what it means? There have been literally HUNDREDS of speculations as to what “watch the water” means.
Frankly, at this point, my “care” is on hold.
What I DO care about is anything that we can PROVE, or even just prove to be PROBABLY TRUE.
In the context of the TITLE of the Stew Peters documentary, the use of the phrase “watch the water” is clearly a tie to the QAnon saying, but IMO it will do neither the QAnon people nor the COVID critics any good.
I just shake my head thinking that Ardis is invoking QAnon to “prove” his contention, when it’s far more likely that he’s helping “snake venom in drinking water” and “QAnon” undergo some kind of mutual annihilation.
In other words, “Thanks for the help we didn’t need, and didn’t ask for. In fact, if you don’t mind, you can have your shit sandwich back – I’m not hungry.”
I’m not angry at Ardis – in fact, I’m seriously excited about the possibility of making some excellent lemonade out of the lemons he gave us. And I’m not alone. Here is Jordan Sather’s critique of the interview, which he posted on Telegram (h/t GA/FL).
Watched Stew’s “Watch the Water” video with Dr. Bryan Ardis. (I find it funny Stew calls Q a deep state op, but names his movie after a common Q-ism, ‘watch the water’. Helps with marketing I suppose. Though that’s not the point here..)
I think Ardis is onto something, but not the something he thinks he’s onto. He makes a variety of jumps to conclusions that I don’t think are rooted in sound logic. For instance, “because it’s in the TV show, it must be real”, “if the CDC says don’t do it, then do it”, “if the fact checkers debunk it, it must be real”, etc.
Also still going on with this “there’s no such thing as a virus” line – I don’t resonate with this.
I think it’s possible that snake genes were used in the production of the COVID virus, along with bat DNA, eye of newt, toe of frog, and whatever the heck else they used for the witches brew. Who the heck knows. Could this explain some of his points with remdesivir, monoclonal antibodies, and fact checkers he brought up? There are other claims he makes that I think are far fatched though.
I definitely don’t think they put snake venom in water supplies around the country and that’s what caused the “COVID outbreak”. A bioengineered virus and faulty PCR tests are reasonable enough explanations.
One point: the mainstream media is going to have a field day with hit pieces on this one, seeing as people are already sharing it all over the place like it’s fact. And I think this is only going to add to the confusion when trying to wake normies up about COVID. “Now you think it’s snake venom and viruses don’t exist you crazy conspiracy theorist??”. Only going to make life tougher on ourselves.
I’m not totally sold on this doc and do think there’s a possibility of it being a red herring. Don’t let your guard down.
My two cents on it.
This is one of the reasons I follow Jordan Sather – he is open-minded yet SO level-headed. I totally agree with what he’s saying here.
And while we’re at it, here is another TWO-HOUR interview of Ardis by RedPill78.
This interview is VERY interesting, because Ardis talks about Trump’s position on vaccines, and various attempts to set up meetings between Trump and various vaccine opponents, including Ardis and Peter McCullough.
His take on Trump and vaccines may shock a lot of MAGA people.
Also note that around 33-36 minutes into the video, Ardis acknowledges many scientists holding MY viewpoint on this – that SARS-CoV-2 is the agent, being a virus with a venom-like spike protein – although he calls this viewpoint “agreeing with him”. In other words, his fallback position is – COUGH, COUGH – my position.
*SMIRK*
NOW – let’s get to my NEW AND IMPROVED take on all of this.
At first, I was thinking that I was going to have to do a lot of “defending” of truth and basic logic here, but really, the truth defends itself. You know damn well “they” are not putting snake venom in the water supply. You know in your gut that remdesivir isn’t snake venom.
Whether certain key sequences were put into the spike protein is a question that is exquisitely up for grabs – THAT is a real question. We see HIV-related sequences, we know what those sequences DO, that they are in the right place, that they do what is predicted, and we know that they were patented, etc. Smoking guns.
We ALSO see amino acid sequences related to venomous snakes, but they’re the wrong type of venom – mostly neurotoxic – whereas I personally found the ‘snake venom” pharmacological linkage closer to hemotoxic venoms. Whatever. Please note that *I* was primarily using protein snake venoms as an ANALOGY to show why the pathogenic and hemotoxic spike protein was a BAD CHOICE as an immunogen. My analogy doesn’t require similar sequences, although that would be interesting.
But “they’re” not putting venom in the water supply to cause COVID-19. The idea doesn’t jibe with the facts on any end of the assertion. I leave that to YOU to work out.
Remdesivir – the horrible bad drug that it is – has no need of being snake venom.
The OUTCOMES are still the same.
Don’t let anybody give you remdesivir. Don’t take any drugs from a lying company like Pfizer. This is all very simple. I don’t NEED snake venom for any of it.
The only reason *I* needed to invoke “snake venom” was to help people understand why the spike protein was so nasty, and clearly responsible for the fact that the COVID vaccines were every bit as bad as the disease – maybe WORSE.
SO – here is where I suddenly laugh at the frogs jumping needlessly in the water to “get away” from me – a person who has no intention of harming them.
For ALL the bitching and blog-posting that I did, trying to get people to learn a little biology and pharmacology about protein toxins, and how SNAKE VENOMS and SPIDER VENOMS demonstrated the plausibility of a toxic spike protein in the vaccines, causing both disease and vaccine injuries, I probably enlightened a few dozen people, TOPS.
But CHECK THIS OUT. Bryan Ardis’ stuff now has engagement in the MILLIONS.
Bryan Ardis is dropping a BOMB on the other side, that is MISSING the target, but it is going to wake a LOT of people up – in a way that I had hoped to do, but could not.
The parts of what Ardis is saying that are WRONG are going to get “washed away”, so to speak.
But the parts that are right – meaning getting people to think about venoms as very much analogous to the spike protein – that is gonna STICK.
And in my opinion, THAT is GOD’S WORK.
So, is this “How I learned to stop worrying and love the bombshell?”
Maybe so.
Yup. The frogs jump in stupidly, but they’re still God’s wonderful creatures, and they do what they do for a reason.

The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
Prayers for your enemies, and your enemy’s enemies, and your enemy’s enemy’s enemies, are all permissible.
MUSICAL INTERLUDE
For your listening enjoyment, and general encouragement, we continue Wheatie’s tradition of fine music videos, shipped fresh from the seas of information by our intrepid authors.
While looking at videos in an earlier week, I accidentally discovered this oddball American sister duo on the Latin “pop country whatever” music charts.
…..and later realized that such a sister act is not a totally unique thing…..
…..although it certainly looks like BOY DUOS are more common…..
Q’s post addressed to Nate Cain (qanon.pub post 2578) had a line which really struck a nerve: YOU ARE NEVER ALONE. Here is the post.

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
…..and then…..
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
If you want to download the Pfizer documents – the ones that they wanted to hide for 75 years or whatever – it’s easy. But first, a couple of videos to set things up a bit.
Now it’s really a one-page site – they get right down to business on the landing page…..
You can search through the site to select documents first, OR you can just download to your heart’s content. Here is the bottom of the page, with nothing selected, so the download button is grayed out.
Now, if you want to download ALL of the documents just go to that drop-down button in the lower left corner…..
…..and change the setting from “Show [ 25 ] per page” to “All”. Then, you will get a single page, and you can put a checkmark on ALL 150 documents (which is tedious as hell, but it works).
When you download all of these documents, they will come in a ZIP file. You can then extract all of the documents out of the zip file, and then view each of them with the proper application.
Enjoy!
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day:
endeavor
noun
A conscientious or concerted effort toward an end; an earnest attempt.
Purposeful or industrious activity; enterprise.
verb
To exert oneself to do or effect something; make an effort; strive.
To attempt; try.
Used in a quote:
We thought about it for a long time, “Endeavor to persevere.” And when we had thought about it long enough, we declared war on the Union.
While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.
Christmas Spirit
I just ran into this as the totally WRONG result on a search, but it was just what I needed for the Christmas spirit portion of our presentation!
And now, the rules of the pub.
HOUSE RULES
God bless us, every one! Tiny Tim had such a beautiful soul. He hadn’t a mean bone in his body…unlike most of us. But in keeping with Christmas, we promise to honor Wolf’s rules and keep Scrooge at bay. The Utree is where the Ghost of Christmas Present will conduct you should you need to rattle some chains. Another option, should all hell break loose is here.
Hang in there, Trumpy Bear! You’re going back to the White House!!!
No more of this Sleepy Creepy guy, provoking needless wars to fill Democrat coffers!
The Business At Hand
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And indeed, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get THROUGH IT, OVER IT, and BEYOND IT.
The Rules
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
In an image…….
Try to make it real.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our enemies, many of whom were grievously harmed by their foolish choice to virtue signal with the experimental gene therapy vaccines, which were snuck upon all of us by the monstrous WEF, Pfizer and Moderna, despite our warnings, and because this corrupt administration, media, and social media suppressed the truth.
MUSICAL INTERLUDE
For your listening enjoyment, and general encouragement, we continue Wheatie’s tradition of fine music videos, shipped fresh from the seas of information by our intrepid authors.
First, some “epic” mandolin…..
Well, let’s get that mandoleen a little more TOE-TAPPIN’ and a FOOT STOMPIN’!
And finally, a song from a movie you probably never saw – Captain Corelli’s Mandolin.
OK – we can’t leave you with that downer. Check THIS happy song out!
Feel ready? GOOD!
Call To Battle
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
For the first time – no image here.
OK, just ONE of many:
I refer you to a series of ABSOLUTELY AWESOME memes posted by Robert Malone, here:
“Hospitals receive payments for testing every patient for COVID, every COVID diagnosis and every ‘COVID death,’ as well as any time they use remdesivir and mechanical ventilation.”
Not only is that a great article, that is highly referenced.. It very accurately goes through history and malfeasance by our government and the hospitals. This article is a must read. It also has an extensive list of references at the end.
You may hit a paywall, but you can take Malone’s word for it, if you do.
H/T whoever it was who found this gem! (I forgot)
How “Let’s Go Brandon” Demonstrates the Failure of The Regime’s “Decisive Victory” Strategy Against Us
This may seem like it’s the usual, hand-waving, “defeat is victory” battered-conservative abuse-porn, coated with addictive hopium, but IMO it’s actually some “real” hopanite ore, suitable for creating hopium-based nukes, and depleted hopium bullets.
Basically, a comparison of the “establishment victory over Trump” to Pearl Harbor.
They have not won.
Rather, they have earned themselves an ASS-WHOOPIN’.
Robert Malone Performs/Explains A Real Live Peer Review
This is actually REALLY GREAT, and a UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY. You will almost NEVER see this, unless you get an advanced science degree, and in that case, you will likely be taught all the bad habits of somebody not nearly as good and experienced in “grantsmanship”, patenting, and publication, as is Robert W. Malone.
Malone even does it in plain, common, sensible language that anybody can understand. You will literally see how to “talk back” to HIGHLY credentialed scientists making mistakes, showing bias, sticking to narratives, and just being people who you should NOT trust.
This is RESTORATIVE to real science. I just cannot praise this enough.
Peer review example: “Effectiveness of the BNT162b2 vaccine among children”
Having written hundreds of requested peer reviews, I am offering my unsolicited one.
What makes this even more powerful, is a slightly earlier post by Malone, in which he exhorts ALL people to USE COMMON SENSE in doubting the media on things in which they don’t have expertise, because the FAKE NEWS is demonstrably WRONG on the things in which you DO have expertise, and you REMEMBER those cases, and therefore you are absolutely entitled to extend that skepticism to ALL THINGS THE PRESS SAYS.
Please note that there are many variations on how English speakers actually pronounce most of the word, but the lifted pinky / beltway bandit / light-in-the-loafers silent T is “supposed to be” preserved in English, and the result sounds very French.
Therefore, if you want to stay grounded and keep your “man of the people” cover, you can intentionally mispronounce the word JUST A LITTLE by including that final ‘t’ ever so slightly (“MAUWNt”).
Alternatively, over-emphasize the open mouth ‘MAUW[n]’ at the end to almost comedic levels, and you sound like a real American who took French in high school. But it’s still probably best to avoid ‘reproach-ment’, unless you really want to make sure people think you don’t know a lick of French.
Used in a sentence:
The convergence was noted by statesmen and scholars of the time, but the term “Great Rapprochement” to refer to a distinct historical phenomenon may have been coined by the American historian of Anglo-American relations Bradford Perkins in his 1968 study of the period, The Great Rapprochement: England and the United States 1895–1914.
Slightly misused (and optionally mispronounced) in a Lindsey Graham joke:
We are NOT serving mercurials or arsenicals today – or EVER – but we ARE serving MODERN SUBSTITUTES like penicillin – to the non-allergic, of course.
While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.
Christmas Spirit
And now, the rules of the pub.

Now, back to business.

Current Art On The Wall
We have a really RETRO shipment this week. All designed to go along with our FEATURE PRESENTATION.
These are presented in the order that they came out of the box.
PATENT MEDICINE PILL, 1890.
Advertisement for Beecham’s Pills from an American newspaper of 1890.
Interestingly, Beecham’s Pills were actually USEFUL. They contained aloe, ginger, and SOAP, the latter meaning that they were much like stool softeners – a gentle laxative.
Not so sure about snake oil…..
The following is a subtle ad for CHILD DEWORMERS.
With this picture, we begin some ads for Dr. D. Jayne and his products. His company lasted for around a century. He was an actual trained doctor, and tended to use pharmaceuticals with real physical effects, like digitalis, opiates, etc., rather than quack ingredients.
American children tended to have roundworms and pinworms – Dr. Jayne’s “vermifuge” apparently worked on both.
Jayne used a lot of artwork in his marketing – thus many of his product advertisements can still be found.
The following is very subtle propaganda.
Jayne’s was still around as WWII loomed. Many of our childhoods were not long after this. Bear this in mind later in this post.
More “Jayne’s art”.
The expectorant apparently contained ipecac, opium and digitalis.
Nothing like a good salve!
Stabler’s apothecary was run by multiple generations of a family of pharmacists. The founder, Edward, was an interesting herbalist, trained in Pennsylvania. He was an abolitionist in Virginia who would purchase slaves to set them free. http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/news/2006/feb/01/herbal-remedy/
I hope you have some idea now about medicine in the 19th century.
Do you think we’ve advanced much?
Let’s move “forward” now, to “state of the art” 19th century prescription medicine.
Seatbelts.
Mercury and Arsenic as the mRNA and Remdesivir of Pre-Fauci America
In the process of reading about how COVID vaccines are now setting off syphilis tests (a topic which we covered last Friday), I chanced upon a boatload of information about early treatments of syphilis, and what I read simply blew me away.
The scandals of syphilis are WAY, WAY more than the “shame of the disease itself”, and WAY, WAY more than the Tuskegee syphilis experiment.
These scandals are SMALL POTATOES compared to the scandal of TREATMENT OF SYPHILIS WITH MERCURY.
This is history you will NOT learn under globalists and progressives.
A scandal which was SO BAD – just like “treatment” with these demonic mRNA vaccines – that medicine started QUIETLY – without admitting fault – looking for an exit strategy. And part of that was motivated by this fact:
BLACKS and other groups who were not getting “treated” with mercury, were not suffering many of the WORST end-stage “symptoms of syphilis”.
You see what I mean? It was JUST LIKE THE CLOT SHOT. Just like remdesivir. BLAMECASTING the errors of the BAD but moneymaker treatments onto the disease.
This is NOT NEW STUFF.
In fact, it is MOST IRONIC that the Tuskegee experiment STARTED OFF by literally SAVING the participants from treatment with mercury – only to then DENY THEM penicillin when that became available, so that they could continue the experiment.
Because the experiment was not merely about “not treating people”.
It was REALLY about NOT TREATING PEOPLE WITH MERCURY.
And THIS explains why there was so much determination to get these participants to the end-stage WITHOUT TREATMENT. Because it was end-stage effects that they were so interested in observing.
What I discovered was that the history of medicine in America is FILLED with stuff every bit as bad as the DEMON Anthony Fauci, the disaster of AIDS and AZT, toxic drugs like remdesivir, and medical killers like the untested mRNA vaccines. Much of it is exposed by the history of syphilis, so that is where we will begin.
The Wikipedia article on syphilis doesn’t say much about the actual treatment of syphilis with mercury, despite it having a fairly extensive section on treatment. A much better coverage is found in the article on the History of syphilis.
However, even THAT does not really give you a sense of the magnitude of what might gently be called “the problem of mercury as a medicine”.
Let me put it this way. When it turned out that MALARIA and ARSENIC were both superior and more importantly SAFER treatments of syphilis relative to the “consensus treatment” of MERCURY, you know that mercury was BAD SHIT as a medicine.
Obviously, if they tried MALARIA and ARSENIC, people KNEW that mercury was a bad drug.
In fact, I was shocked to find that the current confrontation between “natural therapies” and “pharmaceuticals” is a VERY old conflict that never went away. While there has been SOME reduction in the mortality difference between “do no harm, save a few” natural remedies and “kill a bunch of people, save a few” pharmaceuticals, we are still talking about millions of Americans killed by pharmaceuticals intended – or maybe just “purported” – to save them.
Anyway, here is the big picture.
The “clot shot” and the people who maliciously pushed it are entirely believable in the long, dark shadow of “killer calomel”.
SO – let’s get started with Hg2Cl2.
My parents actually had a bottle of calomel (not calamine – the neighbor kids had that) in the medicine cabinet when I was a kid. It was somewhat more modern than the above, with a metal screw-cap. Indeed, my parents had a lot of very old-school medical stuff from the 40s and 50s.
As children, we treated all our wounds with the mercury compound thiomersal, a.k.a. merthiolate. You know – the bad stuff in vaccines. This is the “new” bottle which I loved – we had older glass bottles with a glass dipping rod, before these handy squeeze bottles.
Calomel has a LONG history as a therapeutic. Although it got its start back in alchemy, by the time it got to America, it was a common medicine.
From Wikipedia:
By the 19th century, calomel was viewed as a panacea, or miracle drug, and was used against almost every disease, including syphilis, bronchitis, cholera, ingrown toenails, teething, gout, tuberculosis, influenza, and cancer. During the 18th and early 19th centuries pharmacists used it sparingly; but by the late 1840s, it was being prescribed in heroic doses[7]—due in part to the research of Benjamin Rush, who coined the term “heroic dose” to mean about 20 grains taken four times daily.[8] This stance was supported by Dr. Samuel Cartwright, who believed that large doses were “gentlest” on the body.[9] As calomel rose in popularity, more research was done into how it worked.
J. Annesley was one of the first to write about the differering effects of calomel when taken in small or large doses.[9] Through experimentation on dogs, Annesley concluded that calomel acted more like a laxative on the whole body rather than acting specifically on the vascular system or liver as previous physicians believed.[9] In 1853, Samuel Jackson described the harmful effects of calomel on children in his publication for Transactions of Physicians of Philadelphia.[7] He noted that calomel had harmful effects causing gangrene on the skin, loss of teeth, and deterioration of the gums.[7] On May 4, 1863, William A. Hammond, the United States’ Surgeon-General, stated that calomel would no longer be used in the army as it was being abused by soldiers and physicians alike.[7] This caused much debate in the medical field, and eventually led to his removal as Surgeon-General.[10] Calomel continued to be used well into the 1890s and even into the early 20th century.[7] Eventually calomel’s popularity began to wane as more research was done, and scientists discovered that the mercury in the compound was poisoning patients.
Calomel was the main of the three components of the pill number 9 of the British army during the First World War. [11]
But if you REALLY want to understand the history of calomel as both a poison and a drug, this is the article you need to read.
This article totally gets it, as you can tell from the opening quote.
New drugs present greater hazards as well as greater potential benefits than ever before—for they are widely used, they are often very potent, and they are promoted by aggressive sales campaigns that may tend to overstate their merits and fail to indicate the risks involved in their use. . . There is no way of measuring the needless suffering, the money innocently squandered, and the protraction of illnesses resulting from the use of such ineffective drugs.
John F. Kennedy, in his Consumers’ Protection Message of March 15, 19621
Is the whole “Q” thing starting to make sense? Just as an aside. JFK clearly had some of the same enemies as Trump.
Anyway, this article shows how the use of mercury and arsenic compounds for medicines was controversial even from the START, with Paracelsus himself admonishing fellow alchemists not to use too much mercury in treatments.
The problem with calomel is that it’s insoluble MOST of the time, and in that state it can be used in excess, because it just flushes through the body. It’s a lot like barium sulfate – a totally safe version of highly toxic barium – in that respect. But if calomel oxidizes, or becomes impure, or otherwise emits other forms of mercury, it can be very harmful.
Thus, calomel got good results in some hands, but in the hands of other physicians, and in the bodies of other patients, it was a killer. It was easily abused, and even some of the “megadose” treatments were abusive from the git-go – to say nothing of giving it to children, and doing life-long damage.
But now, let’s look at what calomel and other mercury compounds did for syphilis. For THAT we go to another great article.
This article does a deep dive on use of mercury to treat syphilis, and does not hold back on the contention that much of the symptomology of syphilis that was seen before penicillin, was really due to mercury poisoning and NOT due to syphilis itself.
Sound familiar?
This article in particular contends that the end-stage dementia of tertiary syphilis in the West, which was observed much less frequently in certain populations like blacks, Indians, and Norwegians, who avoided mercury, was mostly due to the treatment with mercury, not syphilis.
In case you’re thinking that’s unlikely, just consider patient-killing remdesivir, which we’ve covered extensively.
Now, there IS an great academic look at the skeletons of syphilitic patients, some of whom were treated with mercury, trying to determine if mercury made things worse. The results are inconclusive, but in any case, the background material is excellent reading.
More Harm than Healing? Investigating the Iatrogenic Effects of Mercury Treatment on Acquired Syphilis in Post-medieval London.
Molly K. Zuckerman
DOI 10.1515/opar-2016-0003 Received October 26, 2015; accepted March 29, 2016
Abstract: Mercury was commonly used to treat syphilis in post-medieval Europe, but debate persists about whether it ameliorated infection or exacerbated it. As there are no in vitro studies on mercury’s effectiveness, Hg levels were characterized using an established technique, portable X-Ray Florescence Spectrometry (pXRF) in syphilitic skeletons (N=22) from six post-medieval London cemeteries. Levels were assessed against proxies for syphilitic infection severity (lesion type, episodic involvement, extent of involvement), oral health indicators, and age at death. The findings are equivocal, likely obfuscated by background poor oral health and high mortality, and cannot elucidate whether mercury ‘killed or cured’.
Keywords: syphilis, mercury, pXRF, post-medieval, London, trace element analysis, paleopathology.
The history of treatment with mercury in America serves as a strong precedent for what we are seeing now with “vaccines for everything”. The mendacity of some and the fecklessness of others regarding COVID treatments is not new – it all happened before with the mendacious and feckless medical establishment – and MERCURY.

The mahogany medicine chest contains boxes, bottles and tubes of medications to treat a number of conditions. The chest includes treatments to purge the body by vomiting (emetics), by sweating (diaphoretics), as well as general purgatives such as rhubarb, jalap and calomel. Other medications include pain relief, such as opium plus astringents and stimulants, including ginger and lavender. The chest contains a handwritten inventory listing the medications. The chest also includes a set of scales, weights, a pill tile and a spatula. The set was probably used in the home or by a chemist or apothecary.
