Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.
Your weekly reminder to take the pledge:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion.
Fellow tree dweller Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
No food fights.
No running with scissors.
If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
And Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
7“And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. 11Give us this day our daily bread; 12And forgive us our debts, As we also have forgiven our debtors; 13And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. 14For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; 15but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Once again, Father Meeks delivered a fantastic homily on Sunday. Please, find it here.
We know how we are supposed to live as children of God, but we are always tempted to try and live without him. Always tempted to live the way we want to live, not the way God wants us to live. Today, Jesus faced that temptation and overcame it!

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.

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.

And don’t forget to…….
ENJOY THE SHOW.
Thank you all for being here. Have a great weekend.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Russiagate was bullshit.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Spygate was real.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Covid was a hoax.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that the ultimate goal was endless vaccines and a digital tracking system.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that there were safe, cheap and effective therapeutics that could have saved countless lives.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you that the vaccines would be ineffective and harmful. That they would cover up the data to protect the narrative.
We were right.
“Conspiracy Theorists” told you Biden and the Democrats stole the election. That his administration would be an epic disaster.
WE. WERE. RIGHT.
But here’s the thing…
Our mission isn’t to gloat.
Our mission isn’t validation or vindication.
Our mission is to help you SEE. For the very first time.
The MSM has KNOWINGLY lied to your face 24/7/365 for decades. They’ve laughed at you behind closed doors as you’ve swallowed their false narratives hook, line and sinker. They spend hours every evening telling you how terrible the world is…filling your mind with negativity and FEAR.
They labeled those of us trying to help you understand as bigots, racists and terrorists.
You know that simply isn’t true.
They’ve silenced any and all dissenting opinion and labeled those thoughts as a threat to democracy.
You know that isn’t right.
Aren’t you tired of being gaslighted and straight up lied to?
Who has more to gain from lying to you?
Your family and friends or the people who enrich themselves through a corrupt, rigged and immoral system that only benefits the 1%?
That same corrupt and disingenuous collection of talking heads is now telling you that we are on the brink of nuclear war with Russia.
“Conspiracy Theorists” are telling you that isn’t true and that massive corruption will be exposed as a result of Putin’s “special military operation” in Ukraine.
We will be right again.
Please let this be the last time you allow yourself to be duped by people who don’t care about you and are paid to lie to your face.
Let this be the moment when you finally realize that it’s US (WE THE PEOPLE) VERSUS THEM (THE POWER HUNGRY DECEIVERS).
We are not defined by our political affiliation.
The two party system is an illusion of choice.
A brilliant yet maniacal division tactic.
We are not defined by the color of our skin or which God we choose to believe in.
WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS. WE ARE ONE.
Divide and conquer has been the method to their madness for centuries.
Let this be the moment when you finally realize that humanity deserves better.
That humanity deserves TRUTH.
That humanity thrives when we are UNITED.
That we’ve been deprived of that feeling for many generations.
Let this be the moment when you realize why the term “Conspiracy Theorist” was invented in the first place.

One other vital note:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
12“Yet even now,” says the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; 13and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the LORD, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and repents of evil. 14Who knows whether he will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, a cereal offering and a drink offering for the LORD, your God? 15Blow the trumpet in Zion; sanctify a fast; call a solemn assembly; 16gather the people. Sanctify the congregation; assemble the elders; gather the children, even nursing infants. Let the bridegroom leave his room, and the bride her chamber. 17Between the vestibule and the altar let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep and say, “Spare thy people, O LORD, and make not thy heritage a reproach, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, `Where is their God?'” 18Then the LORD became jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.
MATTHEW 6:1-6, 16-18
1“Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. 2“Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 3But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. 5“And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 6But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. 16“And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. 17But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
“Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace. Peace will be the last word of history” – St. Pope John Paul II
Holiness is this profound contact with God, becoming a friend of God: it is letting the Other work, the Only One who can really make the world both good and happy. — Benedict XVI
As always, prayers for the fight against that which seeks to enslave us are welcome.
Please include: President Donald Trump, the Q team, our soldiers in the field, special forces, tactical units, first responders and those working behind the scenes…and any and all people with family members in the hospital, COVID or not.
And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.

This gets a bit “planetary”…..
Venus and Mercury Instructing CupidChristiaan Huygens, Saturn, and SomethingRaindrops on Titan
…..which was based off of an FDA alert (sketchy link)…..
…..which actually links back to a different CDC alert (even sketchier link)…..
WHATEVER.
Here is that final CDC alert. Only the top 3 paragraphs are important here.
Let me quote the text of those first 3 paragraphs for Zoe. I will make BOLD what is important.
Dear Partners in Prevention,
December 20, 2021
I’m writing to share the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) alert sent to clinical laboratory staff and health care providers about a syphilis test. The alert reports that false reactivity, or “false-positive,” Rapid Plasma Reagin (RPR; non-treponemal) test results, when using the Bio-Rad Laboratories BioPlex 2200 Syphilis Total & RPR kit, can occur in some people who received a COVID-19 vaccine and includes recommendations for addressing these potential false positives.
Historically, false-reactive RPR test results have been observed in people with systemic infections unrelated to syphilis, such as tuberculosis, rickettsial diseases, and endocarditis.False-reactive RPR testing also has been previously observed following immunization (specifically following smallpox vaccine). False reactivity with RPR can also occur during pregnancy.
Per CDC’s 2021 STI Treatment Guidelines, reactive RPR results should always be confirmed with treponemal testing (e.g., Treponema pallidum particle agglutination, TP-PA). This is, in part, because of the above-mentioned issue: false-positive nontreponemal test results can be associated with multiple medical conditions and factors unrelated to syphilis. According to FDA’s alert, treponemal testing for syphilis does not appear to be impacted by this issue.
Allow me to translate.
It turns out that “being vaccinated for COVID-19” throws off an ANTIBODY-BASED SYPHILIS TEST, and can give false positives.
The reason is that these are a sort of antibodies against substances released from cells attacked by certain diseases and conditions. Thus, they’re not exclusively the downstream product of syphilis.
Normally, certain diseases, certain vaccines, and pregnancy can all throw off this more rapid but less conclusive syphilis test, and that is part of the reason why people are supposed to follow up this easier test, with a test that looks for the actual organism which causes syphilis.
Thus, we have added one more cause for the test to be thrown off.
This is not the same as the HIV test that was thrown off by a particular Australian vaccine, because the antigen in the vaccine actually contained an HIV protein (gp41) as part of the vaccine, and created antibodies against HIV. I talked about that last week. That was a much more direct test interference, easily expected.
How a Psycho Vaccine Marrying the Infamous COVID Spike Protein to HIV’s Neurotoxic gp41 Was [Allegedly] Canned by a Mere Testing SNAFU How Australia Dodged The First Mad Vax Bullet of the WEF Scamdemic / Plannedemic Darwin Award Vaccine Featured Insane Merger of HIV and COVID But Failed Due to Buggering of AIDS Tests, NOT …
What I find interesting is that one of the things that normally sets off the syphilis test is endocarditis.
Endocarditis, which is inflammation of the inner surfaces of the heart, is one of the three main heart inflammations, thus being pretty damned close to myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the outer sac), both of which have very prominent correlations to the jabs.
So while this means that – NO – the shots are not giving people syphilis – the shots ARE basically acting like an illness, and very much like a known cardiac illness.
You were warned.
Now – while I was researching syphilis, I became interested in the treatment with compounds of mercury.
Traditional mercury-based pastes were used in cures. Whilst this was partially effective, the toxic side effects of the mercury probably outweighed any advantages.
This is actually a HUGE understatement.
It turned out that arsenic was considerably better.
It wasn’t too long after that success, that penicillin took over as the real cure for syphilis.
I will come back to MERCURY in a future post, because I found something quite amazing in its history.
But if you look ONE COLUMN TO THE LEFT and TWO ROWS UP…..
COPPER is also bacteriostatic and algicidal – and at concentrations below where it is a health risk. And THAT leads back to a DRINK that Grandmaintexas introduced us to……
Moscow Mule Revisited
Based upon my reading of Grandma’s post on the subject, the Moscow Mule simply is not a proper Moscow Mule unless it is served in copper vessels.
The health effects of COPPER are about as debatable as the effects of mercury – although, in general, copper is much less toxic, so when it’s being “not good for you”, it’s a lot less “not good for you” than lead. At the same time, copper is much MORE toxic to things like algae, fungi, plant roots, and other “pests”, than it is to us, and that is why it is found among the gardening pesticides in hardware stores. The antimicrobial activity of copper is extremely well-documented, but appears to be complex. Simply having copper in the household or workplace environment seems to have health benefits – and this was particularly noted back in the days of less sanitary environments. Water passing through copper fixtures tended not to spread disease.
We tend to forget about OLD SCIENCE, so we can’t put new things into good perspective.
LEAD and other CHEMICAL ADVANCES saved us from the horrible BIOLOGICAL diseases and maladies of the uncivilized life.
Did they have chemical consequences? Yes. The TRICK is REMEMBERING AND ADMITTING OLD RISKS AND BENEFITS while also DISCOVERING AND ADMITTING NEW RISKS AND BENEFITS, then BALANCING HONESTLY with the PROPER PRIORITIES which put PEOPLE FIRST.
It is VERY easy to see where CDC went off the rails with the COVID-19 vaccines, being unable to admit old benefits (of lasting immunity to caught and treated diseases), while also being unable to admit new risks (of vaccines using untested and immature technologies).
Likewise, looking back, it is easy to see that basic sanitation – not vaccination – REALLY conquered diseases. Vaccines came in, mopped up, and took all the credit, by design, because bad people realized that vaccines in the hands of a technological elite, combined with an ignorant populace they can essentially murder and experiment on at will, allow them to basically FARM HUMANITY.
Sorry, Bill Gates. We understand your social engineering of us. We know your M.O. We know your real intentions. Including for the “people of color” you pretend to care about.
You will note that, in general, the further down the periodic table one goes, the more toxic the metals. Surprisingly, the second-lightest one – beryllium – is quite toxic, but even lightweight aluminum simply isn’t all that bad, in the big picture (but you’ve got to keep it on the OUTSIDE). In contrast, if you get down and heavy there with mercury, thallium and lead, or even as far down the table as cadmium and indium, the metals can be quite toxic.
Lead used to be used for plumbing – enough to lend its name to the profession. Copper then took over – before plastic began to displace copper. Nevertheless, copper is still highly valued for plumbing, as well as for electrical wiring.
As noted above, copper in drinking water is an interesting beast. Lead and copper in drinking water are controlled by the EPA under something called the Lead and Copper Rule, or LCR. Note that the linked document, which talks about the most recent “upgrade” to the rule, is over 400 pages. Yeah – there is a MESS of goofiness outside the actual rule there. Most of the concern is about lead, which is now highly restricted. Here is all that is said about copper’s toxicity in the linked explainer:
Acute copper exposure causes gastrointestinal distress. Chronic exposure to copper is particularly a concern for people with Wilson’s disease because they are prone to copper accumulation in body tissue, which can lead to liver damage, neurological, and/or psychiatric symptoms. For a more detailed explanation of the health effects associated with copper see Appendix E of the final rule Economic Analysis (USEPA, 2020). EPA did not propose revisions to the copper requirements; thus, the final rule does not revise the copper requirements.
Copper is basically off the hook at 1.3 ppm or below. That number has not been upgraded. Why is that level important? In my opinion, it’s because copper is bacteriostatic and algicidal in practice at between 0.1 and 1.0 ppm. Thus, one can SAFELY DRINK water which is being purified against microorganisms with copper.
And THAT would include the Moscow Mule, depending upon how long it sits.
I refer you now to an excellent article, which relies on a breathless scaremongering headline, but actually DOES provide a balanced set of viewpoints on both the DANGERS and BENEFITS of dietary copper.
Sipping This Popular Cocktail Is a “Health Hazard,” Experts Say
AFTER 27 MINUTES, YOU MAY BE AT RISK OF HEAVY METAL POISONING.
First of all, copper isn’t really a “heavy metal” IMO, but whatever. It’s heavier than some.
You will note, after reading at the link, that you have to drink a ton of Moscow Mules, or a few that have sat around for a very long time, to MAYBE get sickened by them.
In general, avoid drinking acidic things that have been in contact with copper for a long time, and you will be OK.
Remember – most household water has sat around in copper pipes for quite a while at neutral pH, and it’s simply not toxic (due to copper). You DO get less lead if you flush your water 30 seconds before getting drinking water, but again – we’re talking about levels that would make Romans, Victorians, and even people from 70 years ago howl with laughter at our prissy over-concern – even knowing the science.
Perspective is very important – as you are about to see in a beautiful example of the failure of modern science, thanks to CCP socialism infecting both global science and science publishing.
Failure of Socialized Science and Peer Review Exposed in a JAMA-Published Ivermectin Study
The fact that Pierre Kory now calls JAMA “PHAMA” is a nice short way of saying that medicine has been utterly taken over by the pharmaceutical industry, and IMO set back several thousand years. Hippocrates would be HORRIFIED by what has happened to medicine – and I say that as somebody OUTSIDE medicine, and a lot closer to the pharmaceutical industry.
IMO it’s too late to save the pharmaceutical industry from scandalous criminal survival – but it’s not too late to save the profession of medicine from utter moral death. And thus, you will be treated to my following scientific opinion.
Steve Kirsch doesn’t play defense. He saw how JAMA (the Journal of the American Medical Association) completely FUMBLED an ivermectin paper, and how Pierre Kory picked it up off the ground, taking complete control, but more or less just standing there, lamenting the bad refs and horrible cheating. So Kirsch did the only thing he does. He grabbed the ball from Kory and ran it back for a touchdown.
“New JAMA paper show Ivermectin blows the COVID vaccines out of the water”
This is an utter reversal of the conclusion of the paper.
All because some guy in the stands named “Massimaux” spotted the free ball and yelled “FUMBLE!!!”
If you understand science, and science publishing, then you will see that what Kirsch did here was BRUTAL. And I’m gonna show you where all the bruises and black eyes are.
I almost feel sorry for JAMA, but not enough to miss this opportunity to LEAP ONTO THE DOGPILE and give AMA’s hare-brained PC leadership a good WEDGIE.
Don’t worry about the AMA. They’re protected by Pfizer, Biden, and the media. And just like any good mafia arrangement, as long as AMA keeps saying the right things, and not saying the wrong things, everything is gonna be OK.
Everything but science. But that’s OK, too.
We’ll take care of things. Just like we did here.
Here is the Kirsch gab that grabbed my attention.
Repeating for Zoe, as well as our silicon friends…..
“Wait a second. I thought there was some paper just out that Alex Berenson said was basically the end of ivermectin, although scientifically, I know that’s pretty much impossible. I know there is SOME explanation for why this paper (which I have not read yet) has to be deviating in some way from the MANY papers that show limited but solid efficacy – and especially against DEATH – just like HCQ. But this CANNOT be the same paper. No way! Kirsch would not be saying this unless the results were stunningly IN FAVOR of ivermectin, and there is no WAY that some authors with a NEGATIVE-LEANING study would be……. I mean….. WHAT THE HELL????”
SO – I just stopped to see what in the hell paper Kirsch was talking about.
Now we’ve discussed (in the comments on this site) Berenson’s very weird attack on Robert Malone when they appeared together on Fox News, which didn’t make sense THEN, but which does NOW – and I will explain that momentarily. But first, back to Kirsch.
Kirsch explains that – YES – this paper states in BOTH its abstract and its conclusion the following:
“The study findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.”
However, that is NOT what the data says.
Certainly not to everybody.
Certainly not to me.
In other words, DIFFERENT scientists (like Kirsch, Kory, me, and an anonymous Twitter poster names Massimaux, who found the key issue) have looked at the data, and see something quite different.
Kory goes into a rather long analysis of the whole war against ivermectin, but Kirsch digs into Kory’s article and then finds and elucidates the key nugget – discovered by Massimaux – that just ends the arguments.
It helps to read this in Kirsch’s article, but if you’re going to be lazy, I’ll explain here.
Here is Massimaux’s tweet:
In the I-TECH study, of 490 patients, 241 got Ivermectin and 331 were vaccinated.
Can we compute the vaccine effectiveness AGAINST DEATH and Ivermectin effectiveness AGAINST DEATH? Yes, we can! See the figure.
Look at the bottom line in the two tables and compare. Not only is ivermectin CLEARLY better than the vaccine at preventing death – the significance of the result is significantly greater.
If the efficacy of ivermectin against death is not true, then very little else in the study is true.
This data says that ivermectin is exactly what we’ve been saying it is. It’s not a miracle cure, but it WORKS – particularly in preventing DEATH – its only real purpose. That result is IN THE PAPER. It is IN THE DATA. And if the authors want to argue that it’s not in the data, because it’s not significant enough, then nothing ELSE is in the data, because most everything else is even LESS significant.
Now it’s very important to realize that this nice little pair of tables FROM THE DATA is not due to the original authors – it’s due to a POST-PUBLICATION “peer review” by somebody who looked at the very same data, and PROVED using the authors’ own data that they were WRONG to say that the data didn’t support use of ivermectin.
So why did the authors tack on that wrong statement?
Did the EDITORS make them tack on that statement? Did the AUTHORS tack it on to get the paper to publish? Or is the “peer bias” against ivermectin, mostly due to the media, SO STRONG that scientists didn’t even look through their own data to see a conclusion they didn’t want to see?
Or is it a combination of ALL of these?
It is clearly in the data that ivermectin is three times as effective as the vaccines in preventing death. Even more importantly, if you add in what is known OUTSIDE the paper in question – namely the adverse effects of the vaccine and the safety of ivermectin, then it’s a no-brainer to NOT take the vaccine and to just use ivermectin. And Kirsch explains THAT rather nicely.
The data LITERALLY justify our position.
This was my hunch all along, and as vaccine side effects loomed larger and larger, and ivermectin proved to be rather shockingly harmless, even at antiviral doses comparable to large-animal systemic antiparasitic doses. All ivermectin had to do was prevent death to some moderate extent, and it was a no-brainer that people should take it.
To conclude anything else, based on the data, is murderous folly, in my opinion.
When I was a young lad – a mere student – but also one who WROTE PAPERS (because I had a great professor who TRAINED US to be full-blooded scientists), we EXPECTED to be CRITICIZED in peer review by people exactly like Steve Kirsch, Pierre Kory, and myself. We expected that others would look at data and see it completely differently.
And we would then have to ACKNOWLEDGE the alternative interpretations, or convince the editors that the criticism was not even worth acknowledging (a VERY rare occurrence in any legitimately contested field).
My lab had PRACTICE criticizing other people’s work – and we expected it in return. I personally found quite a few errors in the literature. Most were small – mostly problems of the writing – but some were huge and affected the science. Sometimes the big errors would only partially alter the author’s conclusions, but other times they had a significant impact.
However, I have to admit that I never ran into data which PROVED THE OPPOSITE of the authors’ main conclusion – even if only to the critic – and THAT is what we have here.
PEER REVIEW is designed to subject a paper to (hopefully at least TWO) critical readers who will very likely DEMAND improvements. Those improvements often mean acknowledging DIFFERENT views of the data as being possible and maybe even reasonable.
That kind of QUALITY peer review was VERY OBVIOUSLY not done here.
What we have RIGHT HERE is a demonstration that HERD REVIEW is much more important than PEER REVIEW.
PEER REVIEW is subject to BIAS. It is subject to SUBVERSION and GAMING.
I go back to the Zhang mask paper, for crying out loud.
To me, this will always remain a horrifying example of “fitting the data to the theory”, rather than looking to see what the data says. You can just look at this graph and see the crime.
I lay this stuff SQUARELY at the feet of SOCIALISM, which has politicized science and removed control of science from the people of science themselves, investing much of it in a media which WILL NOT question government narratives. People raised under socialism who become “go-alongers” – and so SOME degree that is everybody – stop questioning things that need to be questioned.
I have WATCHED and I have SEEN how WEF and CCP corruption have degraded science everywhere.
They’re not going to fix this stuff – at least not yet.
But until then, know this:
Ivermectin WORKS, and it was just proven by people who said it doesn’t work.
Thanks to HERD REVIEW.
One last point.
Why did Alex Berenson not see this?
IMO, it’s because Berenson is simply not a scientist – he’s an investigative journalist. Thus, his virtue-signaling attack on Malone was meant to show “journalistic balance”, NOT that he himself had deeply researched the history of the topic, in which case he (Berenson) would have likely said “Yes, Malone really is the most foundational of the founding fathers of the tech.”
But let’s not blame Alex too hard. THE AUTHORS OF THIS STUDY – that’s right – the authors themselves – didn’t see it, either.
See what I’ve always said? Real science is contentious.
But it has a good heart.
It wants the TRUTH.
ENJOY THE SHOW.
Thank you all for being here. Have a great weekend.

Here at the Q tree we believe in the concept of CIVIL open free speech and the discussion that fleshes out ideas. When commenting and participating in the OPEN discussion on this thread all comments MUST NOT CONTAIN personal threats, baiting, name calling, or other anti-social words fomenting hate, violence or destruction. Our host Wolfm00n has strict rules about that.

Please, stock up on blanks for celebratory gunfire, be ready to swing from the chandeliers…and no messing with the nuclear weapons.
Please remember to remain locked and loaded and ready for trouble should the insurrectionists try to invade your space.
Those who have things to say that do not fit the generally accepted limits of “civil” discussion, Wolf has provided a venue known as the UTree. You’re welcome to visit over there and say hi to anyone hanging out over there. The “Rescue Thread” is also over there. In the event a rendezvous of the tree is needed, please check it out, as well as the newest rescue venue.

One other vital note:
Please, review these rules that our host Wolfm00n outlined toward the beginning of the growth of the tree itself. it won’t take long.
13Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and get gain”; 14whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and we shall do this or that.” 16As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

And…members of the QTree who no longer participate for one reason or another.
It is quite clear, as per Wolf’s message from July, that we are under spiritual attack. Building up a robust arsenal of prayer and discipline is a must in fighting the enemy and his minions.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
Russell Brand might be an idiot, but on this video, he’s great. (No new JP as of this writing/scheduling.)
This is a sentiment I share…and I’m related to a lot of used car dealers.
I think going forward, most people are going to view the medical establishment with about as much trust and confidence as they would a used car dealership.
I’d throw in a few Rockefellers and Rothschilds also.
Of course, this does not mean committing felonies, but standing up to the forces that want to tear this nation – and humanity apart. The very people XVII told us will be destroyed by the time this movie comes to an end are currently roaming the halls of power…supposedly. It’s a sickening sight.
Your weekly reminder to take the pledge:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.

By now, I have learned to keep my reactions pretty close to my chest. There is such a thing as reacting too soon before more information is released, and it’s easy to make assumptions if you don’t see the whole picture. There’s power in observation.
1So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed. 2Tend the flock of God that is your charge, not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly, 3not as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock. 4And when the chief Shepherd is manifested you will obtain the unfading crown of glory.
PSALMS 23:1-6
1The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want; 2he makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters; 3he restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. 5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies; thou anointest my head with oil, my cup overflows. 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
So many settings, so little time. This is an American classic that every choir worth its salt knows.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, Prince of the Heavenly Hosts, by the power of God, cast down to Hell Satan and all his evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Current Art On The Wall
This week’s shipment is allegedly CUBISM – to prove that we will put ANYTHING on the wall – even genres we generally don’t like much.
Cubism and Christmas. A good idea? Or NOT A GOOD IDEA? You decide!
OK – let’s get more traditional!
And maybe even VERY traditional!
And speaking of music…..
What’s Playing on the Jukebox
Why, the soundtracks of the trailers in the next section! That’s what!
Here is the trailer song separated from the cinema. I actually find it a bit more enjoyable this way.
Movie Review: Death on the Nile (2022)
NOTE: This review may contain very mild “spoilers”. Stop reading if you run into something that seems spoilerish, if you don’t want any. I have tried to not give away anything significant in the story, beyond the trailers, but there may be a couple of close calls.
This is the movie that I’ll be talking about. This is the trailer you most likely saw.
However, if you got an early preview of it, you may have seen THIS early preview trailer, which has almost no dialog, but is really intriguing by relying only on visuals and music.
Here is yet another version with rearranged visuals – shorter and snappier. I like this one!
There is an IMDB trailer that’s very nice, too, but you have to go there to see it.
Lastly, let me show you a “reaction mashup” – basically looks like a Zoom room – of a bunch of people commenting on the trailer as it plays.
OK – that’s enough. Now down to business.
I have not been to a movie in a while. I really avoid them if I can. I can spot the dirty hands of cultural Marxism in almost every movie Hollywood makes now. It’s tedious to watch their propaganda.
However, my wife likes these damned murder mysteries. Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie – you know the type.
The last one we saw was the horrifying “Knives Out” – enjoyable as a work of the genre, but excruciating in its political correctness. The vengeful, angry, projecting, communist psychology was all over it, ramping up to laughable levels at the end. Overtly racist, sexist, classist, and every other leftist prejudice-in-the-name-of-stomping-out-prejudice, all of the hard left’s biases were gleefully woven into both plot and acting. I was rolling my eyes, chuckling, and smirking at the “dramatic” parts at the end. I honestly felt sorry for the “woman of color heroine” at the ideologically “uplifting” end.
Why must the solution to all human idiocy be “deuce axe machinist” by liberals? So they get to be GODS? Using a hammer and sickle on every microscopic problem?
Ugh.
I thought I was done with Hollywood’s corrupting of the “murder mystery” genre, but no – my DW had different ideas.
This one – Death on the Nile (2022) – succeeds mostly by DISTRACTING from the political correctness. It does so with a combination of compelling plotting, amazing scenery, skillful acting, and strong attempts to “go beyond” blatant leftist narratives by underplaying them competently yet powerfully into the story itself. This approach allows the leftist audience to see what THEY want to see, while trading “in-your-face” PC for a kind of non-gratuitous, historically correct PC that makes sense as part of the story.
Still, the PC is not removed completely, and on long reflection, one feels abused by the requisite embedding of political correctness.
For example, while every one of these “usual suspects” is woven skillfully into the plot, they’re still all there:
interracial romance in the face of 1930’s history
“probably racist” white parent forbidding true love
old black woman sage
young black woman muse
bad male gun, bad white gun, good black female gun
wicked white waspy couple (and they’re cultural appropriators, too!)
lesbians forced into the closet by paternalistic society
aspirational capitalist bourgeoisie without morality, tsk, tsk
limousine communist donor class heroine
classic white male hero submits to struggle session and self-criticism
imperialist “woman of color” in denial of roots pays for her transgression
Christian symbols hypocritical, non-Christian symbols meritorious
decadent cabaret culture showcased yet subjected to moral apology RE appropriation
many smaller bits of reflex Hollywood-think
Now – with all that said – these things were made almost completely non-gratuitous by a kind of honest incorporation into the plot, albeit without historically accurate dialog, and RARELY addressing them directly. This leaves an intriguing blend of truth – historical and emotional – in the wrong language, suitable for the modern ear. Actually, Hollywood does this almost ALWAYS, but because I now avoid their work product for months to years at a time, it’s painfully apparent to me.
Thus, the movie creates a skillful blend of political tensions with the NORMAL tensions of a murder mystery. This is a great trick – a kind of cross-talk to influence audiences EMOTIONALLY but not overtly.
The didn’t forget the SEX, either. Lots of STEAMY sexually charged scenes, too, but not much skin. As the Daily Mail put it (and this is one of their longer titles):
Full steam ahead for sex, greed and murder: To celebrate the 100th anniversary of Agatha Christie’s first book (and our first glimpse of Poirot), Nicole Lampert goes behind the scenes on Kenneth Branagh’s VERY racy new film version of Death On The Nile
This is skilled propaganda – and in my opinion it is forced on the story by the requirement that the writing get past “The Black List”. This thing ticks off all the requisite boxes on racial and end-wave feminist cultural Marxism. It also passes muster with the Satanist crowd, IMO, by virtue of the Egyptian setting and their “death cult” stuff.
NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY DID – and by that, I mean what they DID TO US.
SPOILER – graphic photo of Las Vegas carnage below the Luxor obelisk, pyramid, and sphinx.
Yup. This production clearly “green-lighted” by the Luciferians in charge.
Now that I’ve gotten the POLITICAL and the CULTURAL and the RELIGIOUS payload stuff out of the way, what about this movie in normal ways? Is it any good?
I think it was really well-done, and that is what elevates the vehicle above the payload.
Let’s start with one of the reasons I was happy to go see the movie.
Russell Brand is not prominent – not as much as I would have liked – but he’s really, really good. He uses his LACK OF LINES to forcefully project a kind of disturbing, anxious, quiet tension and hidden emotion that brings all sorts of suspicion to his character. I won’t tell you where that goes, but it’s good. When he does speak, he does it quite well, and it contributes to the intensely emotional nature of the film. I have much respect for him as an actor now, even though he was clearly playing one of the “butler-level” parts.
This also speaks to extremely competent direction, of course.
Gal Gadot and Armie Hammer are both excellent, carrying that essential combination of “suspicious as hell” and “wouldn’t hurt a fly” which makes for a good whodunit. Hammer is particularly good at the latter. Gadot manages to pull off dozens of wildly different looks throughout the film, which is damn near a fashion piece. Hammer is just stylish. But is he bad? Not gonna spill the beans here!
You might think Gadot would be the hottie of the movie, but if you go by what is gonna make men hot under the collar, that would be the performance by this gal, Emma Mackey.
Both ladies do some scorching dance moves with Armie Hammer, but Mackey’s were enough to raise my blood pressure into the red zone. She’s also quite excellent in her part – the definitely neurotic, probably psychotic, and quite possibly crazy as a bedbug, jilted ex of the guy, and “former” BFF of the girl.
Complicated business.
This gal has “she did it” painted all over her. But did she? No way. Can’t be. But yet…..
Good acting. Dancing. Whatever!
The movie is banned in Kuwait over Gal Gadot’s Israeli military background, but I have to say – if they were looking for other reasons, this movie has plenty.
Speaking of which…..
These ladies provide some mild comic relief – I was unaware that they’re actually a comedy duo – Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French. What’s interesting here is that they mix in some straight-up politics, and actually poke fun at some of the leftist kind. I’m not going to go into much more detail than that.
OK – I will say one thing. The film actually borrows one of Donald Trump’s best one-liners, and re-uses it in a new context. I kid you not. Most people won’t catch it, but those who are deeply familiar with Trump’s 2016 campaign trail will get a nice laugh. It’s good fun.
Annette Bening and Tom Bateman turn in solid performances as the rich old lady and her goofy mama’s-boy son, the latter who seems far too light in the loafers to be falling for……
Sorry. That might be TMI.
Many of the twists of the movie revolve around the above pair. If you do see this movie…..
EYES ON.
NEXT – the accountant.
The Gadot character’s accountant cousin, played by Ali Fazal, is definitely suspicious as hell. Like all accountants, it would seem, he has a “security plan”, and I have to say, I prefer Suspicious Cousin’s over Emma Mackey’s.
Speaking of security, check out that Tiffany necklace on Gal Gadot. It’s part of the plot.
OK – now who are we missing?
Kenneth Branagh as Hercule Poirot
Tom Bateman as Bouc
Annette Bening as Euphemia Bouc
Russell Brand as Dr. Windlesham
Ali Fazal as Andrew Katchadourian
Dawn French as Mrs. Bowers
Gal Gadot as Linnet Ridgeway-Doyle
Armie Hammer as Simon Doyle
Rose Leslie as Louise Bourget
Emma Mackey as Jacqueline de Bellefort
Sophie Okonedo as Salome Otterbourne
Jennifer Saunders as Marie Van Schuyler
Letitia Wright as Rosalie Otterbourne
Ann Turkel as Meredith Wilson
OK – let’s start with the Otterbournes. They’re actually key characters, around which much of the story takes place. There’s the old lady singer / performer, played by Sophie Okonedo…..
…..and then there is her “young kin manager”, played by Letitia Wright.
These two are in the thick of things, and there are many surprises based on their presence. Obviously these two gals are leaned on heavily for the PC messaging, but in spite of it all, they manage to come off as credible, non-cardboard, and interesting characters. In my opinion, if the screenplay would have pulled some of the “crypto-political” dialogue, and replaced it with solid character development, such as making Wright’s character more of a fully developed romantic counterpart to Mackey’s, the whole movie would have benefited.
Fans of “security devices”, shall we say, are gonna love several scenes with these gals, but I won’t spoil the fun.
Speaking of security, always keep your eye on the butler – especially if she has a hankering for BFD (Big Effin’ Diamonds). This is Rose Leslie, who really pulls off the look of a domestic.
Suspicious Cat really thought this broad was GUILTY. Was he right? NOT SAYIN’.
So who’s left on our list? Two names – one of which appears to have been edited out, or is there by mistake. And that leaves ONLY ONE.
Kenneth Branagh. This guy simply can’t be bad. As ALWAYS, he does a great job here, both as an actor and a director, giving some real depth to the character of Hercule Poirot. That’s some of the most redeeming stuff in the movie, so it’s all you’re getting.
OH! And one last, cute point.
Apparently Hollywood had “issues” releasing the movie because of “scandals” that are guaranteed to make your eyes roll.
How ‘Death on the Nile’ became ‘every publicist’s worst nightmare’
Yes. Hollywood was SKEERED because four of the “talent” got into social media trouble.
From the top…..
First. In Hollyweird, it’s OK to *BE* a cannibal, but don’t get caught loudly pretending you’re one – especially after pissing off a string of important women. Armie Hammer (yes, he’s related to the original commie) apparently likes some pretty kinky play sex, and his exes have loose lips. But is he a real cannibal, or just a loud-mouthed drunk and a loser? Your call…..
But WAIT – there ARE things worse than that. Like making a “tone-deaf” and “cringeworthy” “COVID survivor” video based on the John Lennon “Imagine” lyrics, that got tomatoes from hipsters and Branch Covidians.
WARNING!!! MAXIMUM CRINGE!!!
Please, Gal! Always check with your local communist cadres to make sure that speech is appropriate BEFORE you speak!
But there are things that are even worse than poor correct-think…..
Like WRONG-THINK!
Like retweeting anything mildly skeptical of the COVID vaccine narrative. Or worse still, actually TALKING to vaccine skeptics. OH, NOES!
So yeah. They had to wait until NOW, when apparently the SMOKE CLEARED.
SO – should you go see this movie?
Not my call. Hopefully I’ve told you what you need to know.
Movies are not reality. They’re stories. They’re emotional manipulation. Sometimes they’re political manipulation, too. I’m not actually sure if I’m a better or worse person for having watched this movie. But I felt like I needed to make a RECORD of the experience. Hopefully that record can be put to good use by others.
If you do go, ENJOY THE SHOW. I think you might.
The Andromeda Shot
Thanks to barkerjim, Gail Combs, and Chris, who all got me onto the scent with this one.
Let’s start with “The Andromeda Clot”. This story began when a professional embalmer spoke out on behalf of his profession, stating that once the jabs started, he and other embalmers started seeing long, white, fibrous clots – stringy like plastic – in the veins of deceased victims of heart attacks and strokes.
The story just gets bigger and more shocking from there, as Steve dug in.
Steve interviews a very talkative and inquisitive lady embalmer, speaking on behalf of herself and two embalmer friends. These three embalmers have all seen the clots, and ALL of them independently came to hypothesize that these clots are caused by the COVID vaccines.
If you don’t have time for the video (it’s over an hour), you can read this post by Steve for the highlights.
This interview is FILLED with excellent information about the clots, including this lady’s opinion that (1) there is no way these clots are from post-mortem coagulation, and (2) that the clots seem more prominent in the elderly, and may be exacerbated by immobility and stasis.
Some of the blockbuster “hidden gems” in this interview are “scoops” about what doctors are doing behind the scenes. One is use of ivermectin “on the down low” at the local hospital, which is in a very conservative area. Another is that doctors who are encountering clots in clinical practice, are asking about vaccination status as a possible cause of the clots.
You can’t stop the signal, because the signal is TRUTH.
In my opinion, these clots are so damning, it is MONSTROUS that science is not talking about this phenomenon yet.
Is medicine really that derelict in its duty, that UNDERTAKERS are now the source of SCIENCE?
In my opinion, the media in support of WEF leaders and WEF narratives is how we got here.
Adam Schiff, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and their ILK are why America is looking a lot like the Soviet Union lately, following close behind Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Psaki says the White House has been flagging "problematic posts" on Facebook they believe are misinformation about Wuhan coronavirus. Reminder: Fauci worked with Facebook to ban the lab leak theory, which is factual, for more than a year.
Cuppa Covfefe had the same reaction as I did – that this sounds like the disease in Michael Crichton’s fictional book “Andromeda Strain“, the virus of which turned people’s blood into a rubbery powder.
Gail was thinking that this white fibrous stuff sounds like fibrin, and indeed, there is evidence that spike protein binds to fibrinogen, leading to the inappropriate formation of fibrin.
Here are some references about dysfunctional coagulation from both COVID-19 and spike protein, including vaccines.
I can go on and on, finding papers which demonstrate coagulopathy due to either COVID-19 or the spike protein, but almost nobody in the science world DARES to link any of it to the spike protein vaccines, despite the obvious morbidity, mortality, and pathology of vaccinees – something which is apparent to all intellectually honest people.
For example, the first study cited above is featured in this explanatory blog post:
A vicious circle. Coagulation is not merely a result of inflammation, it causes inflammation also, a process driven by the presence of the spike protein alone and its peculiar interaction with fibrinogen and fibrin.
Now here’s the kicker. If the SARS-CoV-2 virus with its uniquely pathogenic spike protein is a bioweapon, then so also must be the ‘vaccines’, which cause the cells in our bodies to manufacture SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins in their trillions, and it has been demonstrated conclusively that these spikes find their way into the vascular system and circulate to every organ in the body, even the brain. Go figure, as they say.
That last paragraph is not hyperbole. In contradiction to all the toadie journalist “fact-checkers”, REAL SCIENTISTS who have dared to point toward the obvious spike protein culprit have now had their suspicions confirmed.
“Read that again: Protein production of spike is higher than those of severely ill COVID-19 patients!“
And to quote the paper he’s talking about:
We find that BNT162b2 vaccination produces IgG responses to spike and RBD at concentrations as high as those of severely ill COVID-19 patients and follows a similar time course.
This is not hard. Think about it.
disease produces spike protein mostly in respiratory tract and lungs
severely ill COVID-19 cases produce more spike, more disseminated
Pfizer vaccine produces same amount of spike as severe disease
but vaccine produces spike in highly vascularized muscle tissue
patients are encouraged to move deltoid muscle to increase perfusion
Pfizer data (Japan) proves vaccine disseminates throughout body
data proves long half-life of vaccine before release of pseudo-mRNA
other studies show vaccine migrates to lymph nodes
spike-producing pseudo-mRNA likely has unnaturally long lifetime
spike is produced for 60+ days in lymph nodes
vaccine moves through circulatory system via lipid nanoparticles
spike moves from lymph nodes through circulatory system via exosomes
exosomes both contain spike and express it on surface
exposed spike binds to fibrinogen and initiates fibrin formation and clotting
circulatory vaccine spike should cause MORE clotting than does disease
It is NO WONDER that the vaccine earned the nickname “clot shot”.
My bottom line is this:
We cannot stand by while these MONSTERS abort living children slowly with these vaccines.
Remember the wife of familial eugenicist Bill Gates JUNIOR?
It’s very useful to understand BILL GATES SENIOR to get a better feel for the whole clan. The man was not just a eugenicist, but a FABIAN as well.
The other side is getting very desperate to “commit population reduction”, and to do it “by any means necessary”. And to do it – as we have seen – the SNEAKIER, the better.
In my opinion, we have to get LOUD in voice and EFFECTIVE in practice, in spreading the word about the HORROR of the Andromeda shot.
Forcing kids to take these injections is horrifying.
ACT ACCORDINGLY.
We have to support the truckers. We have to end the mandates. We have to end this insane regime.
I believe that making the Bidenistas and Bidenazis EAT THE CLOT SHOT is an important part of how to do that.
While our beloved REAL bartender takes a needed break of unknown duration, we continue to ENDEAVOR TO PERSEVERE.

We ordered a crate of ivermectin from Mexico, and instead got a box of counterfeit paintings marked “L.A.”.
We’re selling the paintings to make enough back for a new order of ivermectin.
As a Gab Pro member, I just got an email about the opening of the Gab Marketplace, which is now best described as a rudimentary “Gbay” precursor, using Gab Chat (the integrated version, not the end-to-end encrypted one) as the negotiating mechanism.
Here are some exemplary screenshots. Click on them to enlarge.
The landing page…..
Electronics…..
Beauty…..
There are no bells and whistles now, but the goal is to soon integrate GabPay, their PayPal substitute that has been under development for some time now.
Here is the text of the email.
Introducing the Gab Marketplace, a giant leap forward for the Parallel Economy on Gab!
GabPRO members can create listings for a variety of categories including books, electronics, tools, home goods, and more.
Anyone can view Gab Marketplace listings, ask about its availability, and chat with sellers to buy their items.
The Gab Marketplace can also be explored without having a Gab account and listings can be shared anywhere.
Gab does not handle transactions for Marketplace listings yet, but we will be integrating GabPay, our Paypal alternative, once it is live.
Sellers and buyers must converse amongst themselves regarding purchasing listings. We have many different categories and listings are filling up quickly, be sure to check back often to see new listings added.
We’ve also created a Job Board and Classifieds section in the Gab Marketplace.
Sell those electronics you haven’t used in forever, sell that Christmas gift you never opened, or anything in-between!
We have seen some of these already, alleging things like “pandemic stress” being responsible for clot-shot cardiac consequences. Those were bad, but now it’s just becoming ludicrous.
It’s very clear to me that the “Fake News” has been tasked with trying to GET PEOPLE TO INNOCENTLY RATIONALIZE the downstream effects of the FAILED plandemic and clot shot plot, whatever those might eventually be proven to have involved.
Trump really tried to get people to see the MEDIA ROLE in regard to “climate change” – that CLIMATE ALARMISM was basically a SIMULTANEOUS media hoax on both scientists and non-scientists.
As long as the media will defend the LIE that science itself, individual scientists, and scientists as a group, are ALL in full, 100% control of what they themselves think, then the TRUTH that the media controls what science thinks and says can be hidden from the public.
It is only NOW – at a moment when many scientists are WAKING UP to what the media has done TO THEM, and are actively TURNING IT OFF, that they realize the media was LEADING THEM.
Let me state this clearly.
FAKE SCIENCE – controlled by the media – is one of the greatest dangers to humanity EVER.
FAKE NEWS is used to lead Fake Science – to hint subconsciously to science and scientists where it’s “going”.
FAKE ENTERTAINMENT is used to normalize Fake Science – to raise the barriers to questioning it.
IT IS YOUR DUTY TO PERCEIVE AND REJECT FAKE SCIENCE.
Being moderately scientifically literate is now a SURVIVAL SKILL, just like being politically literate, or even being just plain literate.
We will continue to bash fake science here, and I personally will continue to appreciate all examples of it that you may find and bring here, because dissecting and analyzing fake science is one of the best ways to fight it.
REAL SCIENCE is making a comeback, and YOU, DEAR AND PATRIOTIC CITIZEN, are part of that GREAT AWAKENING.
Malone and Bhakdi Validated by “Pro-Vax” Paper
On Monday, I covered a recent paper coauthored by Dr. Peter McCullough, which hypothesizes that documented failure of the mRNA vaccines to activate the interferon system, in combination with documented migration of both vaccine-induced spike protein and specific interferon-suppressing microRNAs via exosomes, is behind a variety of health problems associated with the current COVID vaccines.
The hypothesis of this paper is based on rough but obvious signals from VAERS, existing mRNA vaccine data in the literature (interferons and related species, microRNAs, exosomes), and known mechanisms which would explain the VAERS signals if connected to the vaccine data.
I was only partway through that paper, when I was saying to myself “Good grief – why are we even USING these vaccines, much less mandating them?”
Now, as a kind of second strike, Malone has found a paper which not only confirms his suspicions and fears of mRNA vaccine problems, but which also perfectly confirms Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi’s contention that the mRNA vaccines are producing too much of the WRONG antibody type and none of the two more desirable types.
Let me cite the beginning of this post – up to where Malone poses the big question.
A Health Public Policy Nightmare
Vaccine spike antigen and mRNA persist for two months in lymph node germinal centers… protein production of spike is higher than those of severely ill COVID-19 patients!
Vaccination confers broader IgG binding of variant RBDs than SARS-CoV-2 infection
Imprinting from initial antigen exposures alters IgG responses to viral variants
Histology of mRNA vaccinee lymph nodes shows abundant germinal centers
Vaccine spike antigen and mRNA persist for weeks in lymph node germinal centers
The hidden highlight (lede) buried in this peer reviewed paper is that protein production of spike in people vaccinated with the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine is higher than those of severely ill COVID-19 patients! A person might ask, “How could that be?” In order to understand this, we must carefully analyze what the study shows.
I urge you to finish reading Malone’s post about this paper.
I ALSO urge you to read the paper itself (PDF is public), which looks at the same data, and cheer-leads vaccines, stating but otherwise ignoring EVERYTHING that Malone and Bhakdi are concerned about. Ignore the parts you can’t read – there’s plenty that you CAN read, and it is very instructive.
I will attempt to explain the difference between the two views of the same results, but let me give you the Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF).
The original paper was researched and written while the participants were fully under “Gates Vaccine Mind Control” and “Fauci Antibody Hypnosis”, both of which cause scientists to rather blindly follow the laser-pointers which control their outlook on vaccine science.
Gates: Vaccines are the only legitimate way to fight viral disease.
Fauci: Antibodies which I designate determine if a vaccine is safe and effective.
These are the lies of SMART SCIENCE LIARS, because they’re difficult to prove untrue in a way that normies can understand.
As Robert Malone notes, one of the most important facts in the paper [that the vaccines produce more spike protein than even severe cases of COVID-19] is a “buried lede”, although I would go further and state that it was never buried, because it’s not even a concern to the authors.
Once one accepts a priori that:
vaccines are good
vaccine side effects are obvious, immediate, and allergic in nature
spike makes antibodies, and antibodies are good
concerns about the spike protein are misinformation
…..then it is pretty much impossible for these COVID vaccines to do any wrong.
Just ask a scientist, who believes all these things BECAUSE OF THE MEDIA.
More spike protein means more antibodies, and more antibodies is good – RIIIIIGHT?
And if there are problems, it’s the vaccine working! Just ask Jabcinda Ardour!
ANTIBODY HYPNOSIS WILL DO THAT. Under antibody hypnosis, anything which contributes to antibodies which Fauci highlights, is “good” – all other antibodies or other responses are either bad or irrelevant.
The authors of the paper make sure to say all sorts of good things about vaccines, and never say anything critical, despite the fact that they’re sitting on all kinds of evidence that something is very wrong with these mRNA vaccines.
Example:
The appearance of virus variants, waning antibody levels after infection or vaccination (Falsey et al., 2021; Levin et al., 2021), and breakthrough infections in previously immunized individuals (Keehner et al., 2021) indicate that periodic vaccine boosting of immunity to SARS-CoV-2 is warranted.
REALLY? Some of us scientists believe the exact opposite – that these diverse FAILURES indicate that a vaccination strategy is dubious if not highly UNWARRANTED – but OUR view is called “misinformation”.
Seriously – it’s like hypnosis. The authors of the paper CANNOT SEE the things that Malone points out, or that Bhakdi pointed out.
Likewise, the problems which WE can see were clearly NOT found in “peer review”, precisely because the PEERS are for the most part just as much under vaccine hypnosis and antibody hypnosis as the authors, so real and deep questions about the jabs are simply never going to get asked. And if any peers DO recognize the problems, they will keep their mouths shut, or “test the waters” gently, to see if any concerns are allowed.
Those who CAN see the problems, know enough to keep their mouths shut, if they want to remain players in the Science Game.
I go back to what I said earlier about the media – including the science media – including journals – literally CONTROLLING what scientists think – and that scientists have no clue. Sad.
Anyway, now that I’ve provided background of what is going on here – a “pro-vax” paper in which Malone finds shocker evidence of problems, let’s discuss the specifics that Malone found, and that Bhakdi also predicted.
One of the first things that Malone catches is the persistence of both the mRNA and the spike protein in lymph node germinal centers – lasting for WEEKS instead of a few days. Note that this perfectly matches a clinical case that we featured here on these pages!
I have here an absolutely fascinating video (end of article) from Gab TV that fits right into everything I know about COVID-19 and the spike protein vaccines, like the last piece of a puzzle. The video is just under 1/2 hour in length, but it is FILLED with little AHA moments. An extremely articulate, healthy, …
Basically, this woman (on the left) got “long haul COVID” symptoms from a JAB – including massively swollen lymph nodes that lasted for WEEKS. That led to a lot of permanent damage. What she experienced is now explained PERFECTLY by what Dr. Malone postulates.
AND I NOTE THIS AS WELL. What Dr. Malone postulates (below), is exactly what The Ethical Skeptic noted as a CONCERN on Twitter in 2020, before the vaccines ever arrived! Yes, I have not gone looking for his tweet, but TES specifically noted that these vaccines are not “actual” mRNA vaccines – they are PSEUDO-mRNA vaccines.
WHUUUUUUUUT?????!!!!!
Yes. To evade immune protection from foreign mRNA, the vaccine mRNA uses a “pseudo” base to trick the human immune system into thinking it’s not mRNA, even though it works the same way. It’s something of a beautiful hack, but it’s a hack.
Malone:
One very real hypothesis is that the substitution of pseudouridine for uridine to avoid the immune response is working so well that the mRNA is completely evading the normal clearance/degradation pathways. Hence, mRNA that is not being incorporated into cells at the injection site, is migrating to the lymph nodes (and throughout the body as the non-clinical Pfizer data suggest?) and continuing to express protein there. In this case, the cytotoxic protein antigen is spike. Spike protein can be detected for at least 60 days after administration of dose. Note that the duration of the protein expression was only tested for 60 days.
But it gets worse. After reminding us of the pathogenicity of the spike protein (merely citing others), Malone reminds us that the use of pseudouridine to evade immune cleanup is not actually necessary in mRNA vaccines – but it IS (and this is rather horrible) PATENTABLE as an “improvement”.
Again, Malone.
To note: The use of pseudouridine in these mRNA vaccines is not the only option. It has often been hypothesized that the reason Dr. Kariko added pseudouridine to the mRNA vaccine was to make an improvement to the original mRNA patents that I was an inventor on. An improvement to an existing patent allows commercialization of that patent. It is an old trick. Remember, that Curevac does not use pseudouridine in its formulation and it is not required or necessary for a significant immune response. In the next generation of mRNA vaccine experiments (hopefully done in an animal model), it is clear that the issues of adding pseudouridine need to be addressed prior to any more of these vaccines going into humans.
So how much spike protein does this stuff produce? Again, Malone.
Knowing what we know about the spike protein in these vaccines, the study quantitatively measured spike protein levels in plasma after vaccination. Which, it turns out, are higher than the levels observed in a person with a severe COVID-19 infection. Just to write it, the fact that this only now being discovered or it it was known, released to the public is criminal in my opinion. This should have been characterized long ago, including prior to beginning human clinical trials.
That this has not been published or investigated more demonstrates the gross regulatory dereliction of duty by Pfizer, Biointech, Moderna, NIAID VRC and that whole crew. Using these vaccines, which include pseudouridine without fully understanding the implications and without the FDA requiring a complete pre-clinical toxicology regulatory package, including long-term follow-up, as is done with any other unique chemical or adjuvant additive is shocking. Then there is the novel use of the unique nano particles being used in these vaccines, which also were only marginally assessed, as shown by the Japanese Pfizer data.
Protein expression is not being turned off, because the immune response against the mRNA/pseudouridine complex is either not happening or is ineffective. It may also be that the mRNA/pseudouridine complex has a longer half-life than normal mRNA. The In either case, this is regulatory nightmare.
I do not know how to write this more strongly. This technology is immature. The WHO has approved six, more traditional vaccines, all of which the US government could license. These genetic vaccines are not the only option.
And just to make sure you get it, Malone quotes the relevant parts of the paper, and says it again.
Read that again: Protein production of spike is higher than those of severely ill COVID-19 patients!
As an understated closer, without mentioning him by name, Malone adds how THIS paper confirms a concern that Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi had about THE WRONG ANTIBODY TYPES being produced by the vaccines.
The paper also notes that the antibody response is IgG, not IgA or IgM. IgA and IgM antibodies produce a strong mucosal immune response needed for respiratory diseases, unlike IgG.
Finally, Malone makes this statement.
This Substack article has only skimmed the surface of the implications of this paper in terms of both the science and the malfeasance on the part of our government and pharmaceutical corporations. There is more to come on this issue.
You will note that, by implication, the AUTHORS of this paper clearly said nothing indicative of malfeasance. Now it may be entirely possible that they were “getting out truth” while keeping their heads out from under any funding guillotines, but they clearly evidenced no overt concerns for any problems.
And THAT is how FAKE SCIENCE works, my friends.
Lastly, let me add one of my own “concerns”.
Allow me to repeat the authors’ own highlights of the paper, for commentary.
Vaccination confers broader IgG binding of variant RBDs than SARS-CoV-2 infection
Imprinting from initial antigen exposures alters IgG responses to viral variants
Histology of mRNA vaccinee lymph nodes shows abundant germinal centers
Vaccine spike antigen and mRNA persist for weeks in lymph node germinal centers
To these FOUR items, I have FOUR responses, all of which I know Karl Denninger will get.
Leaving aside IgG being the wrong antibodies (see above), BINDING antibodies can still, also, be “wrong” (or more accurately “inappropriate”) antibodies, depending on what happens next, including enhanced variants and ADE. NEUTRALIZING antibodies are the “most appropriate” kind. BINDING antibodies may or may not help. So DO NOT take this point as an automatic score for the vaccines. In my humble opinion, NATURE is likely smarter than Pfizer and Rochelle Alinsky on what to do here.
Original antigen sin. They’re calling it. “Imprinting.” It means that every exposure to an antigen can potentially MISLEAD the immune system for the purposes of the next exposure. Great. SO – how confident are you folks that these vaccines are giving a superior “imprinting” to natural infection? I am NOT confident, and in fact, I believe that the “pseudouridine error” is proof that NIH, Pfizer, Moderna, CDC, CEPI, and all the rest are not even remotely competent to choose the best “imprinting” for children. They are choosing the one that gives themselves the most power, control, and money. SHAME!
The vaccines are going to the lymph nodes. Well, well, well. Not only does this destroy the establishment TROLL talking point about vaccine localization in the deltoid muscle – it provides a nice explanation of the exosome-based spread of the spike protein and interferon-suppressing microRNAs.
Persistence of vaccine and thus-produced spike in the lymph nodes lasts for weeks. Add to this the liberation of spike protein in LIPID-BASED EXOSOMES into the bloodstream. What’s that going to do? Why, it’s going to SPREAD SPIKE IN LIPIDS to other places where lipids collect. Which means spike ends up in other organs. Which can potentially include organs (like skin and other glands) which SHED LIPIDS. Which includes breast milk (dead infants in VAERS) and skin oils (see prior posts on this blog, where my incredulity about “shedding” was overcome). AND don’t forget the ovaries. Etc.
So – that is where we are.
And where is Fake News on this? Totally absent.
We’re not only the news now.
We’re the science now.
ENJOY THE SHOW.
Thank you all for being here. Have a great weekend.
We may serve “off-label” drinks here, including hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, and truck diesel, but we don’t serve spike protein, remdesivir, or anything made in Wuhan, Chinazia.

This is another off-beat shipment. “Spice” is all it said on the box. Let’s take a look.
I am informed that this one has something to do with the “Spice Islands”.
This one is related to Morocco. I think I see some kind of actually trustworthy pharmaceuticals, although it also looks a bit like that “pot-poury” stuff.
Not sure what this one is, other than what’s on the label – “Moroccan Spice”.
This one is also labeled “Moroccan Spice”, with a reference URL. I am informed by an expert that this genre of art is something known as “purse porn”.

You can turn on English captions to see what they’re saying.
Because this group “Perfume” rides on a more techno/electronica carrier wave, and comes in at a more “artistic” level than the Spice Girls, it actually gets MUCH more respect than the Spice Girls, in both the East and the West. Many people regard it as techno art-pop rather than J-pop. But don’t kid yourself. Down deep, it’s still a “girl band”. These ladies are huge cultural celebrities in Japan, just like the Spice Girls remain in England, even disbanded.
And thus we return to reality.
Or do we?
THE SPICE MUST FLOW
And now for our feature presentation…..
The End of the mRNA Vaccines
This topic right here is just a WARM-UP for my Monday post, which will explain WHY these particular mRNA vaccines are OVER. GONE. KAPUT. DONE.
You want to know why Joe Rogan / Spotify happened?
Pfizer-CNN-DNC-BlackRock-[CB]-Mr.Global can’t attack Drs. Malone and McCullough directly, at this CRITICAL MOMENT, so they FAKED IT, and attacked Joe Rogan to indirectly “prove” that Malone and McCullough are providing “misinformation”.
That is how desperate they are.
Sorry.
As China said to the Biden administration, “You are dealing from a position of weakness.”
The TRUTH is a SOLID FORTRESS.
“They” are in so much trouble.
And Malone and McCullough are in the CATBIRD SEAT.
There are tens of billions – hundreds of billions – maybe trillions of dollars on the line, and those dollars are not just on a rickety foundation – they are on QUICKSAND.
You can understand the panic. And it will only get worse.
First, I want you to watch this video, and understand that every word you hear is 100 times truer than even those people realized when they said those things.
Hat tip to Gail Combs for cluing me in to this very recent paper, which I expect to come under merciless attack, but it won’t do any good.
This paper may NEVER reach or pass “peer review”, but it doesn’t matter. Even if it NEVER passes peer review, the payload has been delivered.
The paper has DETONATED in information space.
More “cautious” scientists will BET THEIR CAREERS on the truth therein, and “discover” everything discussed here, but in slower, politically correct, and damage-controlling ways.
Limited damage control remains possible if “they” are extremely lucky and drop mandates world-wide NOW. But as long as their side keeps forcing mandates, the WOODEN STAKE OF TRUTH will be driven into the VAMPIRE HEARTS OF PFIZER, MODERNA, AND ALL WHO BACKED THE CLOT SHOT.
GOVERNMENTS are going to FALL.
I think that SOMEBODY knew this paper was coming.
Once you see WHY the mRNA vaccines are fundamentally flawed, you can’t unsee it.
Innate Immune Suppression by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccinations: The role of G-quadruplexes, exosomes and microRNAs
[Could have said “Baylor College of Medicine”, but they were FOOLS!]
ABSTRACT
The mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines were brought to market in response to the widely perceived public health crises of Covid-19. The utilization of mRNA vaccines in the context of infectious disease had no precedent, but desperate times seemed to call for desperate measures. The mRNA vaccines utilize genetically modified mRNA encoding spike proteins. These alterations hide the mRNA from cellular defenses, promote a longer biological half-life for the proteins, and provoke higher overall spike protein production. However, both experimental and observational evidence reveals a very different immune response to the vaccines compared to the response to infection with SARS-CoV-2. As we will show, the genetic modifications introduced by the vaccine are likely the source of these differential responses. In this paper, we present the evidence that vaccination, unlike natural infection, induces a profound impairment in type I interferon signaling, which has diverse adverse consequences to human health. We explain the mechanism by which immune cells release into the circulation large quantities of exosomes containing spike protein along with critical microRNAs that induce a signaling response in recipient cells at distant sites. We also identify potential profound disturbances in regulatory control of protein synthesis and cancer surveillance. These disturbances are shown to have a potentially direct causal link to neurodegenerative disease, myocarditis, immune thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, increased tumorigenesis, and DNA damage. We show evidence from adverse event reports in the VAERS database supporting our hypothesis. We believe a comprehensive risk/benefit assessment of the mRNA vaccines excludes them as positive contributors to public health, even in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.
I was only part-way through the body of the paper, when I realized that if even a fraction of it is correct, the mRNA vaccines are as good as over.
Worse than that, other non-mRNA vaccines are likely subject to many of the same concerns.
It may very well be that vaccination is a poor strategy for this virus, SARS-CoV-2.
BUT ONE THING IS CERTAIN.
Now that there is a clean, elegant, and intellectually appealing explanation of the adversity of the mRNA clot shot, which happens to align perfectly with common sense, mandates are murder.
Do not back down. Do not give up. We are on the right side of this.
I will explain.
SOON.
Bad Medicine as a Weapon of War
If you ever find yourself weakening on NOT GETTING THE CLOT SHOT – (and I’ve actually run into some of these failure-of-will cases in real life, so it’s not impossible) – try to remember just ONE of the items discussed below.
Don’t let Chinazia and the Globonazis inject you with their Slow-Motion Koolaid designed to assassinate America.
What follows are several items (or groups of items), many of which have been sitting around in my tabs, which have been bothering me. I have been TRYING to fit them into a pure and simple negligence scheme, and I simply can’t.
There is a highly destructive and very intentional aspect to all that has happened, that defies letting us categorize “Obamacare and what came after it” as mere stupidity.
insurance data showing manifold increased deaths of military-aged people, mostly men
Hat tips to RAC, Aubergine and Linda, for bringing the full extent of this one to my attention.
Further hat tips to those who brought all the other “tabbed” items above.
To me, this is only explained by what amounts to a secret “war” against the United States. Not everybody fighting on “their” side knows everything. In fact, almost all of them know nothing. But I think that Tony Fauci, Hillary Clinton, and a few others either know the entirety of the plot, or are following orders without question.
Their mission is based on ideas that America is bad and responsible for every bad thing, and that America and Americans need to be disempowered and punished for it.
Thus, like the general idea that Obama wasn’t as much “for Russia” or “for China” as he was “against America”, we can see that the modern Democrat party is now an embodiment of skepticism about, if not antipathy toward, America and Americans themselves.
Here’s the video and the URL, which long ago disappeared from YouTube.
In my opinion, this all goes back to the Soviet-supported MAOIST Weather Underground types of the late 60s and early 70s, who were actively planning a revolution in which 25 million Americans would need to be killed. This is around the same time that Klaus Schwab got his start. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH.
There are basically two sides – individual freedom and state control. In the past we’ve tended to have wars which were not cleanly on that boundary, such as Hitler vs. Stalin, but I think THIS ONE is fairly clean. “They” try to make “free forces” fight each other, which is very smart, but I think we’re wising up.
They HAD to have known that, without getting the guns, they could never defeat us ON AMERICAN SOIL.
It HAD to be gradual. It HAD to be Sun Tzu. It HAD to be carried out by Americans, on American soil.
I am really thinking now that SOMEBODY on the radical left realized that they could not set up CAMPS unless we were fully under the grip of socialism, like China or North Korea, BUT that until such a time, there WERE ways to trick us into allowing ourselves to be killed.
Disease used as a weapon of war can be efficient, but it’s obvious. But using the medicine allegedly meant to TREAT a disease as a weapon of war is NOT obvious.
Turning our own medical system against us is a cruel and cynical method of war, but I have to admit that it’s rather brilliant.
It’s a sobering thought.
Something is very wrong here. Stay frosty. I think that they’re trying to get as much as they can WITHOUT WAR, before they actually go TO WAR.
And speaking of WAR……
Mayor Gramsci III’s War On Freedom of Movement
The son of the torch-bearer of Antonin Gramsci, a founding father of cultural Marxism, is not exactly undamaged goods. As you can see above, Pothole Pete was (assuming this bit of news is not completely phony) a PRETTY SICK KID.
People like that are PSYCHOPATHS. Pet murderers rarely turn into saints. There is usually something VERY wrong with them – something that does NOT go away without a lot of GOD in the process.
Personally, I don’t care to push a campaign against “Mayor Pete” over his alleged juvenile criminality. There is a reason that juvenile records are sealed. Many if not most people “get serious” at the point of LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY. They grow up. Bad kids can turn out good. However, I still think Kid Pete’s history is relevant to Secretary Pete’s personality.
We’ve gotta KEEP OUR EYE on this boy.
I suspect that many people are glad “Possible Pet-Killer Pete” is “only” Secretary of Transportation. Still, he could do a LOT of damage there. For example, that office could be a real problem for an American truckers’ strike.
Trust me, Pete Buttigieg is not here to fix the roads. He is a typical communist control freak who is going to take our freedoms away if we don’t take him seriously.
And taking Pothole Pete seriously is hard. Because on the surface, the guy is SUCH a DOUFUS.
He wouldn’t hurt a fly – right?
So when this infuriating poser bicyclist idiot does something like this…..
…..one is tempted to view this as merely stupid and impossible.
DO NOT make that mistake.
“Zero traffic deaths” is not only a fundamentally and intentionally MISDIRECTED GOAL that has a “feel-good” appearance of self-justification – which leverages our wish to “do the impossible” – it is CODE for all of the following:
personal transportation for the elite only
Mercedes for the elite – Chinese Trabants for luckier serfs
where you live becomes determined by your job
Soviet-level, corrupt, inefficient public transit for plebes
no freedom of movement – internal passporting
omnipresent cameras and surveillance, just like China
TSA internal control, “papers, please”, and all the rest
This is how these ASSHOES bring CHINA to AMERICA.
Zero traffic deaths is just like MOAR ANTIBODIES.
A PHONY and MISLEADING GOAL.
Now, before we get to the fact that we simply have to stop this crazy commie twerp, you need to know him better.
A great AUDIO will help.
Notice how PRESCIENT this talk is, right at the beginning.
You will ALSO love the end, when you realize that TRUMP is headed straight into confrontation with this joker.
