I hope this finds you well. Passiontide is upon us and reminds us to redouble our efforts at mortification and self-denial so that He might increase and that we might decrease.
The words of yesterday’s gospel are profoundly awful if we really stop and think about what they mean – that Jesus HID and FLED due to their hardness of hearts! God forbid, we pray in humility, that He would hide or flee from us.
It’s becoming more difficult living in a world that is post-Christian and neopagan. The absence of reason and logic combined with greatly disordered passions have loosed man’s inner demons upon the culture. The overwhelming transformation of man’s interior life, in concert with the work of Satan and his generals in the world, have made this for true Christians a most unfriendly, dangerous and quite hellish place. But our hope never fades…where sin abounds, grace abounds even more…We live to fight another day.
No profession is untouched by this luciferian influence; sadly for many, the medical profession is becoming more “woke” daily and sadly filling with those possessing blind fury and hatred towards “the other” (especially those who actually like western culture ie Christianity) and who are not in possession of grace, objectivity or objective knowledge or discernment. In all of this we are hearing that this once-esteemed profession has a flourishing chorus of voices that are promoting euthanasia-assisted suicide, transgender hormone and surgical disfigurement. This increasingly vocal cadre also champion the newest social justice causes as they bury traditional medical ethics that once studiously guarded the sanctity of all human life.
This interview by Scientific American of psychiatrist Bandy X Lee along with other politically motivated hit pieces in once-honorable medical journals, evinces the flowering of a new and dangerous humanitarian medical ethics – a baneful moral degradation subscribed to by a growing portion of the medical profession.
Yes, this psychiatrist who holds an Mdiv argues in another place that the APA and mental health experts didn’t do nearly enough to save America from President Trump (and by inference his supporters.) Isn’t it interesting too that such concern for the “mental health” of American leadership ignores one party totally and the present executive “leadership” in Washington. Of course this validates the view from the progressive left that 80 million Americans were transfixed into a cult – like Jim Jones camp and too willing to follow a deranged and destructive narcissist.
But here it is for yourself to read from the new arbiters of normalcy or wokeness…
May God continue to bless you and keep you well,
Pax et bonum
Posted inUncategorized|Comments Off on I RECEIVED FROM A TRUSTED FRIEND WHO IS A WELL-KNOWN MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL THE LETTER WHICH I HAVE REPRODUCED BELOW. I FELT COMPELLED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU!!!
FIRST TODAY’S ARTICLE from Il Libero Quotidiano, by Cionci, then Br. Bugnolo’s Translation & Analsysis of the Original, now missing article by Canfora, which was published on Feb. 12, 2013 by the Corriere della Sera.
Those Strange Errors in Benedict’s Latin
by Andrea Cionci
Authorized English translation by FromRome.Info.
THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE APPEARED AT BOTTOM OF P. 12, IN THE MARCH 23, 2021 Printed Edition of Il Libero (There is a longer version in Italian at Cionci’s official blog)
“I am an excellent Latinist”, said Benedict to the Corriere della Sera, after writing his Declaratio
But same Newspaper has erased from the Web the article by Dr. Luciano Canfora, leading Scholar of Latinity in Italy, which faulted it for its numerous errors
There has come to light another indication in favor of the hypothesis that Benedict XVI never resigned and has remained that “one Pope” of which he is continually speaking (without saying who that is), and who, for 8 years, has been constantly giving subtle messages to “he who has ears to hear”: such as the errors studiously inserted in the Latin text of his Declaration of resignation, to draw attention to its juridical invalidity (viz. the munus-ministerium distinction, and the declaration which regards a future date). As jurists, Latin scholars and theologians have said: an act camouflaged to undo the Masonic-Globalist Bergoglian “church” with a sort of “Catholic Reset”.
Here are the facts of the case: On the 12th of February in 2013, just one day after the publication of the Declaratio, the celebrated philologist Dr. Luciano Canfora was shocked to find two horrible errors in its Latin text, and wrote about this in the Corriere della Sera: “It is a shame, that on account of the oversight of his collaborators, in the very crucial phrase the syntax of the Latin was given a mortal blow, seeing that the dative form “ministerio” was placed in the same phrase with an accusative “commissum” which supposed to modify it. On Feb. 22nd, of the same year, even the latinist, Attorney Wilifried Stroh, wrote of it in the pages of the Abendzeitung of Munich, Bavaria, and, in November of that year, Cardinal Ravasi, the minister of culture at the Vatican, spoke of it likewise to the newspaper of Verona, the L’Arena.
On the 7th of September 2016, several weeks after the Secretary of the Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura, Mons. Sciacca, has explained to the Vaticanista, Andrea Tornielli, in the pages of La Stampa, how the resignation of Ratzinger was perfectly regular, Benedict XVI published, in the Corriere, a letter in which he described his action in these words: “The text of the renunciation: I wrote it. I cannot say, with precision, when, but at most two weeks beforehand. I wrote it in Latin because something so important is done in Latin. Moreover, Latin is a language which I know SO WELL that I can write it elegantly. I should have also written it in Italian, naturally, but there was the danger that I might make some errors!”
Does all this seem plausible? After the “embarrassment” of 2013, when Canfora, Ravasi and Stroh had criticized him in front of the entire world for his errors of syntax, how can Pope Benedict affirm that , “Latin is a language which I know so well that I can write it elegantly”? Even while admitting he wrote it all by himself.
Moreover, as we have shown in our analyses, the entire Letter of 2016 can be read in entirely the opposite sense (in the light of the Third Secret of Fatima, of which Ratzinger was the publisher): for he never cited Francis as the true pope, but rather as a cardinal successor in a merely practical ministry, so much so that he wrote: “He did not want to wear the read mozzetta, but that did not bother me”! A phrase which could easily be understood to mean, “He did not want to wear the red mozzetta of a Cardinal, which was his duty, and preferred instead to dress in white”.
But the surprises do not end there. As I went to look online at Corriere.it, for the text of the article of Dr. Luciano Confora, which I read there in 2018, when the Libero published my first article on the Resignation intentionally done badly, to my surprise, I found that the article was no longer available. It could only be found in the PDF version of the paper edition of that day, in the email boxes of those who subscribed to the newspaper.
Today, on Google, one finds only traces of the article, in html, in an indecorous manner, in the Cronaca di Bari the regional edition of the Corriere, published at the city of that name in Puglia, where Dr. Canfora lives
Is it probable that whoever chose to erase that one article from the web, which appeared on p. 17 of the Feb. 12th printed edition of the Corriere, failed to remember that it was published simultaneously on line in the Cronica of Bari? And for what reason, at the special request of by telephone from someone outside of Italy? Who knows.
What is certain is that in these days, following the publication of the book by Attorney Estefania Acosta, “Benedict XVI: pope emeritus?”, a lot of knots are unravelling.
Just two days ago, Bergoglio reminded us all: “We need to sow seeds of love: clerical legalisms are barren ground”. And yet, what harm is there in verifying if the “clerical legalisms” are correct? Has the Church not taught for 200o years, that “the highest Truth is charity?” (Veritas summa charitas est).
+ + +
And now for the Article which was Erased from the Web.
These are the images from the original paper edition of the Corriere, of Feb. 12, 2013.
Here, follows, the the Unofficial English translation of the same by FromRome.info.
An Example of Modern Latin
by Dr. Luciano Canfora
The original text of the communique with which Benedict XVI has announced his resignation has been written, as is obvious, in a Latin constructed with phrases dug up by the author from diverse epochs. It is a kind of mosaic which embraces nearly two millennia of Latinity: from the Ciceronian “ingravescente aetate” to the informal “ultimis mensibus” which is found in 18th century writings (namely of the Calvinist, Bachofen), even to the “portare pondus” which is found in Favio Vegezio’s, Epitoma rei militaris, but more frequently in authors like Raymond Lull (Ars amativa boni), Thomas à Kempis or even in the sermons of Bernard of Clairvaux.
Noteworthy as an allusion to the learned and bold Rufinus, translator of Origin, is the expression, “incapacitatem meam”. Moreover, in regard to a solid witness to the Classical era, from Quintilian to Pliny, there stand the most important phrases of the text such as, “declaro me ministerio renuntiare” (“I declare to have renounced my role as Pope — Ed. note, this is Canforas invented interpretation!). Too bad, however, that by an unthinkable oversight, imputable to some collaborator, upset at the gravity of the announcement, a wound has been inflicted upon the Latin syntax of the crucial phrase, seeing that the dative ministerio is placed intollerably in apposition with the accusative commissum (the “task entrusted to me” — Ed. Note: Once again Canfora plays with the signification). There should have, necessarily, been an agreement there, with the dative commisso.
How can one console oneself with this lapsus? By considering, for example, of the rare but disturbing errors in Latin which stained the Quaestiones calilmacheae of a great philologist such as Giorgio Pasquali, but corrected in the reprint done by the excellent Florentine grammarian, Giovanni Pascucci. But is it not impertinent to compare a philologist with a reigning Pontiff? Error — as one knows — is always insinuating itself. As in the Germand period, so also in the Latin there is “ein Bild” (a picture), in which every tassel has its place and the wound inferred upon the harmony becomes all the more painful.
An analogous incident occurred, amazingly, in the opening phrase, where the Pontiff says to his “dearest brothers” that he has convoked them “to communicate a decision of great moment for the life of the Church”: but one reads pro ecclesiae vitae where one would have wanted pro ecclesiae vita. Whether it was upsetting or it was done in haste, it remains uncomfortable on account of the imperfections of a text destined to pass into history. And though, it be true that the Latin of moderns reflects the richness and novelty of the language of moderns, nevertheless, some of the pillars of syntax cannot be transgressed, not even out of respect to the “new which advances”,
+ + +
And now for the
COMMENTARY BY BR. BUGNOLO
I will pass over the frivolity with which Canfora renders the Latin. Though he be one of the great Latinists in Italy, he clearly is more limited by the ruin wrought upon Italian by centuries of foreign domination.
But I will remark, that he points out clearly that the text as it was read aloud on Feb. 11, 2013, was rife with errors.
And that is not inconsequential.
Because though it is true that “error insinuates itself everywhere”, yet a philologist has not the sensibility of a theologian, who knows well that the apparent errors in the Biblical text are in fact sources of mystery and future revelations.
Canonical error in an administrative act is important to NOT ignore. Because, in accord with Canon 40 and 41, it can render an act null and void, and make invalid any action taken by subordinates.
By mispronouncing at least 2 Latin words, when He read it, Benedict XVI invalidated any response made by any of his listeners in accord with Canon 40, which requires them to have whole text in its final form, in hand, before acting.
And by including errors of syntax, He placed them under the canonical obligation of Canon 41 to seek from Him their correction.
This we know they did, to some extent, since the published version of the Declaration underwent several updates on the Vatican website from Feb. 12 to Feb. 17, or there abouts.
That means that they did act upon canon 41, but the failed to withdraw their public announcements.
Indeed, if they had time to ask and obtain correction of at least 3 errors, which were reported in editions published by the Vatican Press Office, they clearly CANNOT be excused if they failed to seek the corrections of the other 37 grammatical, syntactical or juridical errors. Now either they did seek their correction or they did not. And if they did not, they failed in their duty, and should not be listened to or followed in their negligence by the rest of the Catholic world. But if they did, AND Benedict XVI refused to correct them, then they were NOT simply errors, but RATHER intentional signs or purposeful statements. And thus anyone who says that Benedict XVI’s intention was clearly to resign (e.g. Cardinal Burke) is clearly and intentionally misrepresenting the historical record.
Indeed, in this regard Pope Benedict XVI would rebuke the press, in off the cuff remarks, at the close of His meeting with the Clergy of Rome, on Feb. 14, as I reported before, when He told the clergy to look at the Latin of Church documents, not at what the journalists say.
Thus it was, in His letter to the Corriere della Sera of Sept. 7, 2016, when He “boasted” of how good His Latin style was, it cannot be ignored that he was replying to the outrageous statements made by Mons. Sciaccia a month earlier, that there is no distinction in Canon Law between ministerium and munus, and that if your renounce the one, you have renounced both.
Benedict XVI sardonically replied in his letter of September, to that, saying, bascially, that he was inspired by God to renounce in the way he did (invalidly), and the more he sees of Bergoglio’s pastoral approach, the more he is convinced that it was God who inspired him.
Posted inUncategorized|Comments Off on DON’T SHORTCHANGE Pope Benedict XIV WHEN IT COMES TO THE USE OF THE LATIN LANGUAGE! HE WAS/IS CAPABLE OF RESIGNING WHILE AT THE SAME TIME NOT RESIGNING AS POPE IN HIS NOW FAMOUS RESIGNATION DOCUMENT. Joseph Ratzinger IS STILL CAPABLE OF RUNNING CIRCLES AROUND JORGE BERGOLIO AND HIS MINIONS
If this title rings a bell, it’s because it’s so similar to the title of an article I wrote exactly a year ago this month, when presidential candidate Joe Biden—visibly compromised by clear signs of cognitive failure, if not downright dementia—was being sequestered in his dimly-lit basement, surrounded by leftist toadies cranking out his occasional telepromptered statements, and guarded by wife Jill, who never failed to answer questions posed to him, finish his sentences, or whisk him away from the cameras.
A STARK CONTRAST
In that article, I mentioned that my husband Steve had recently had a bad cold and that I had plied him with tea and honey and chicken soup (aka Jewish penicillin), and even insisted he try a folk remedy I was told was very effective and proved to be—smearing Vicks VapoRub on the bottoms of his feet (with socks put over them) at nighttime, the better to wake up with clear nasal passages and lungs.
This is exactly what takes place millions of times a day not only across the United States, but the entire world—women taking care of their husbands, doing everything possible to protect them from harm or hurt.
INITIALLY GIVING JILL THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT
No doubt, that was Jill Biden’s intention when she married the senator from Delaware in 1977, and raised not only the daughter they had together, but his young sons, Beau and Hunter, after the senator’s first wife and baby daughter were killed in a horrific car accident in 1972.
As the years elapsed, Senator Biden became Vice President Biden—for eight years—and the power couple Jill and Joe gained worldwide fame and huge wealth.
But before that, Jill juggled raising their three children with earning a doctoral degree in education and then teaching for years in a psychiatric hospital where her students were emotionally disturbed children and adolescents.
Surely, in both her education and clinical work, she was aware of, sensitive to, knowledgeable about—and protective of—the students whose limitations rendered them incapable of higher function. Surely she became capable of detecting, even diagnosing, thought and speech disorders, dissociative thinking, and incoherent ramblings.
The following examples during Joe Biden’s campaign were sad to witness and raised the very serious question: What is wrong with Jill Biden?
Why has Jill’s understanding, empathy, and take-charge persona been missing in action when it came to protecting her clearly diminished husband from the slings and arrows of a brutal presidential contest? If Joe and Jill Biden were sitting in the office of any neurologist in America, the doctor would immediately put the candidate and now putative president on medication to alleviate his florid symptoms. (Actually, I suspect that has already been done for well over a year now, if not longer).
THE RELIGIOUS CARD
The Bidens claim they are practicing Catholics. Jill certainly must have taken her wedding vows seriously: “I, Jill Stevenson, take thee, Joseph Biden, to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part.…”
The cherish pledge is believable, but what happened to the “in sickness and in health” vow? Did Jill Biden really believe that it meant to “support” her clinically compromised husband in continuing the painful process of slogging it out till the November election by propping him up, ignoring the increasingly glazed and vacant look in his eyes, and witnessing his slow devolution?
Did she believe her role was to plaster on a perpetual Cheshire Cat smile before a media that collaborated with her in the “everything is great” deception, rescuing her husband when appropriate behavior failed him, and pretending that his disjointed, confused, indeed bizarre utterances somehow, magically, made sense?
Before the election and to this very day, every Joe Biden appearance has been the Emperor’s New Clothes, with the entire Democrat establishment—including CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NPR, the NY Times, the Washington Post, et al.—going along with this pitiful charade, while ignoring the fact that the American people they hold in such contempt have eyes and ears!
WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON?
Jill Biden is now 69 and she and Joe are the very wealthy owners of several lavish homes and, as we know, many other sources of affluence.
By appearances, I’m guessing that Jill is also quite healthy. That is why it stretches the imagination that either she or her 78-year-old husband—who has now clearly entered the doddering stage—really wanted to spend the next four years of their lives glad-handing foreign potentates, fielding the conflicting and contentious demands of the American electorate, or generally weathering the unforgiving spotlight aimed relentlessly at the highest office in the land.
Now that the Bidens are, for the most part, secluded, isolated, essentially quarantined in the White House behind barbed-wire fencing and a preposterous military presence, the occasional sighting of Mr. Biden—like his peculiarly bug-eyed, robotic speech the other night—shows a joyless, expressionless, programmed chief executive whose only function seems to be staying vertical long enough to actualize Barack Obama’s radical agenda. The over 40 Executive Orders he has signed since the inauguration on January 20 were clearly prepared by Obama’s functionaries, most of whom have been appointed to positions of power in the Biden White House, State Department, and elsewhere.
Speaking of which, I believe that Joe Biden was selected as Barack Obama’s VP because of the inherent malleability and weakness he has displayed in nearly 50 years on the public stage. The powers-that-be who orchestrated his “election” had no doubt that they could plant any idea, policy, pet project, or corrupt scheme in Joe’s ear and trust that he would follow through unquestioningly. This trust, of course, was based on Joe’s long history of echoing—actually stealing—the words of other people described in a damning series of plagiarism scandals, as well as carrying out, in his own words, menacing threats leveled at the powers-that-be in Ukraine that resulted in the result he and Obama wanted.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR JILL?
I suspect that the powers-that-be, among them brainiacs like David Axelrod, Valerie Jarrett, and especially George Soros—who appears through his massive contributions to own the Democrat Party, the Democratic National Committee, most if not all Democrat fund-raising committees, and the leftist media—got together and decided to back Joe Biden because they knew with absolute surety they could control him once he was in office.
And during the campaign, when it became clear to them—as it did to the rest of America and to the world—that a faltering Joe Biden would be lucky to make it over the finish line, they simply whispered in Jill’s ear:
Stay in the game.
We’ve rigged the election with mail-in voting—and the help of China—so it will work this time.
We’ll run the country just as we did for Obama, this time with Susan Rice or some other functionary we choose at the helm.
Just smile and fake it till you make it to November!
Joe may never have heard these tacit threats, but if my theory is correct, you can bet that Jill heard them loud and clear and “got” the message 100%!
THE KAMALA FACTOR
That message must have nursemaid Jill running scared and contemplating with horror handing over her authority and power to a woman only a handful of people ever heard of until last year.
Whoever is running the Joe Biden show behind the scenes, it is clear that he or she or they had a hand in manipulating the first African-American woman, Kamala Harris, into the Vice Presidency-cum-Presidency of the United States of America. She whose mother is a native of India and her father an Afro-Jamaican and a Marxist economics professor at Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA.
But no matter. To Democrats, who are preoccupied with race, gender, and the lifelong-victim card, narrative is all—qualifications not so much.
But…mmm…now that we know of the close professional ties of Kamala’s husband to the Chinese Communist Party, maybe it wasn’t the color-gender thing that got her chosen for the VP position at all. And maybe it isn’t Obama, who most people surmise is running the show, who orchestrated this fiasco.
After reading a stunning article by esteemed author and journalist Jack Cashill, I have to agree that it is not Obama who is pulling the strings of the Biden regime.
“Although clearly immersed in leftism since childhood, even Marxism,” Cashill writes, “[Obama] never left the shallow end of the pool. As president, he proved so adept at breaking promises because he did not care deeply enough to ensure those promises were realized. What mattered more was that he be seen striking the right pose, finding the right groove, spinning the right narrative. Obama is not a serious man. Never was.”
Cashill doesn’t offer a theory of who is running the show, but my guess is that Susan Rice, Obama’s Ambassador to the UN and U.S. National Security Advisor, is in the running—she who is worthy of an Oscar for her spectacular talent in embodying none of the qualities of sincerity, forthrightness, and integrity!
“Bolshevik Bernie Sanders,” Kincaid continues, “the lone Senate member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, is poised to take over the Democratic Party, after his supporters and sympathizers engineer the ouster of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and President Joe Biden.”
Kincaid says that “The Congressional Progressive Caucus, a Marxist-oriented group close to The Democratic Socialists of America…includes nearly 100 members of the Democratic Party in Congress. This group is driving the Marxist agenda of Biden/Harris. It claims 234 chapters around the country, one chapter in Washington, D.C., perhaps a future state, and it grew by 500 percent in one year.”
If things go their way, they will implant their own socialist-Communist-Marxist candidates of choice through their typically dishonest elections, and by so doing take huge leaps toward their goal of “fundamentally transforming” America into the kind of totalitarian state they so admire. With the help, of course—already rendered—of Big Tech, the leftist media whores, academia, the ([lack of) entertainment industry, the courts, and other major players.
But how could this be? In my decades of observing the behavior of all of the above species, it is clear that the list of those who can be bribed and threatened is endless!
Where does all this leave Jill? Certainly in a less secure place in history than Edith Wilson, who married Woodrow Wilson in 1915 during his first term as president. Interestingly, like Jill Biden, Edith was the president’s second wife. Yet more interesting is that she literally ran the country after her husband’s stroke in 1919, whereas at this point Jill seems busy running interference for her hapless, devolving husband.
WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE US?
Conservatives like me have two things in common. The first is that we look at the Big Picture, meaning a broad historical perspective. Today, there are between 75 and 80 million people who voted for Donald Trump and know American history—unlike today’s “woke” generation—and who therefore appreciate that we have been through bigger battles and prevailed.
Americans with grit, courage, and love for our country have been through the American Revolution, the Civil War, World War I, the Great Depression, World War II, an epic Civil Rights revolution, 9/11, and eight years of Obama treachery—and emerged victorious!
Yes, there are problems to solve, all of which emanate from the de facto assisted-living facility at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue:
The shutdown of the Keystone Pipeline, leading to the loss of thousands of jobs;
The suppression of an investigation into the highly suspicious if not rigged 2020 presidential vote;
The imposition of more draconian restrictions to stem the colossal hoax of global warming;
“Experts” looking at novel ways to deprive America’s children of yet another year of normal life and school attendance;
The resurrection of the deadly nuclear deal with the world’s arch-terrorist state, Iran;
The attempt to rig all future elections in the U.S. to gain Democrat victories;
The resistance to holding Anthony Fauci accountable for the countless wrong calls he has made over the past year;
The refusal to indict (and imprison) the thugs, criminals and anarchists from Antifa and Black Lives Matter for their year-long crime spree, on and on.
Inducting Jill Biden into a National Hall of Shame for the elder abuse of her failing husband may seem to pale in light of the above problems, but there are prison cells all over our country holding those convicted of extreme forms of this sort of crime. In the least, what she is doing is cruel and inhumane, plain and simple.
The second thing conservatives like me have in common is an indomitable sense of optimism, which is why we are so confident not only that these problems will be solved, but that conservatism itself will return to our country with a mighty roar.MAGA is back!(Click)
Mid-March 2021, Moderna started testing its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine on children between the ages of 6 months and 11 years
As of March 5, 2021, the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) had received 31,079 adverse reaction reports for COVID-19 vaccines, including 1,551 deaths
Using March 5 VAERS statistics, assuming all deaths have been reported as required, the lethality rate of COVID-19 vaccines is 0.0028%
CDC statistics puts the death rate following COVID mRNA vaccination at 0.0024% — significantly higher than that following influenza vaccination at 0.0000265%
There are compelling reasons to suspect these vaccines may contribute to death further down the line, perhaps months or a few years into the future. Those ending up with permanent disability as a result of these vaccines will be at increased risk of early death, and there’s no telling how these vaccines might impact the longevity of children
If early statistics are any indication, we are facing the greatest public health calamity in modern history. No, I’m not talking about a third, fourth or fifth wave of COVID-19. I’m talking about the current vaccination campaign. I have no doubt that deaths caused by COVID-19 vaccines will end up far exceeding the number of actual COVID-19 deaths.
The greatest tragedy here is that while COVID-19 kills already unhealthy elderly individuals who are just years from their natural death, the vaccines are killing the young and healthy who typically have many more decades to live. From my perspective, there’s simply no justification for this. There’s no “greater good” argument that can ever make this type of tradeoff OK.
Equally unjustifiable is the fact that death within months of a positive SARS-CoV-2 test was automatically pegged as a COVID-19 death, whereas death within days or even hours of the vaccine is shrugged off as coincidental, no matter how many times it happens. It is reprehensibly inexcusable the way these deaths are being attributed.
Now, these experimental gene therapy “vaccines” are being tested on young children and even babies as young as 6 months old, the ramifications of which are wholly unknown.
According to Forbes1 and The New York Times,2 Moderna has officially started testing its vaccine on children between the ages of 6 months and 11 years. A total of 6,750 children will be included in the trial. Testing on 12- to 17-year-olds began in December 2020, the data from which are still unpublished. Considering what’s happening in the adult population, testing on young children and babies seems extremely premature and risky beyond belief.
Deaths Mount by the Week
Unfortunately, there’s no simple way to keep tabs on vaccine-related deaths. Each country has its own reporting mechanism, and vaccine reactions aren’t always properly reported.
In the U.S., for example, past investigations have shown only somewhere between 1%3 and 10%4 are ever reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which is a passive, voluntary reporting system.
Granted, unlike other vaccines, deaths following COVID-19 vaccination are supposedly required to be reported,5 so perhaps VAERS data are more reliable for COVID-19 vaccines than for others. As of yet, though, it’s impossible to confirm that all related deaths are in fact being reported.
As of March 5, 2021, a total of 31,079 adverse reaction reports had been filed for COVID-19 vaccines, including 1,551 deaths.
VAERS data processed as of March 5, 2021, show a total of 1,551 deaths. (This includes all locations, ages, genders and location of vaccine administration.) At that time, a total of 31,079 adverse reaction reports had been filed for COVID-19 vaccines, which means deaths account for 4.99% of adverse events. Life-threatening events account for 3.56% of total side effects reported, and permanent disability accounts for 2.10% of total side effects reported.
Comparing COVID-19 and Vaccine Death Rates
Another difficulty is matching different data sets together. For example, to put these numbers into greater context, you’d want to know how many people have been vaccinated as of that same date, March 5, 2021.
This too can be tricky to determine, as vaccination statistics6 will often use breakdowns such as the number of vaccinated people per 100, or vaccine doses administered, which doesn’t tell you how many people were vaccinated, seeing how some vaccines require a single dose while others require two.
Accepting those limitations, we can at least get an approximate idea. Using Our World in Data’s statistics,7 as of March 5, 2021, 55.55 million Americans had received at least one dose. (Another graph shows that as of March 5, 28.7 million Americans were considered fully vaccinated, having received all prescribed doses. However, since side effects can occur after the first dose, I will use that statistic.)
Dividing reported deaths, 1,551, by the number of people having received at least one dose, 55,550,000, we end up with a reported lethality rate of 0.0028%. If only 10% of adverse events are reported to VAERS, we’re looking at approximately 15,510 deaths and a lethality rate of 0.028%.
If only 1% are reported, there may be around 155,100 deaths, and vaccines may be killing 0.28% of all who get them. Again, while any and all deaths following COVID-19 vaccination are supposed to be reported, it’s still unclear whether mandatory reporting is actually taking place.
While 0.0028% or even 0.28% might not seem like a shockingly high percentage of deaths, it’s hard to justify even a single death of a young and healthy individual. For comparison, the overall noninstitutionalized infection fatality ratio from COVID-19, for all age groups, is 0.26%. Those under 40 have only a 0.01% risk of dying from COVID-19 if infected.8
As of right now, the vaccine may not match or exceed the lethality of COVID-19 itself, but we’re only three months into the vaccination campaign. According to NPR,9 21.7% of the U.S. population had received at least one vaccine dose as of March 16, 2021.
There are compelling reasons to suspect these vaccines may contribute to death further down the line, perhaps months or a few years into the future. Those ending up with permanent disability as a result of these vaccines will be at increased risk of early death, for example, and there’s no telling how these vaccines might impact the longevity of children.
If premature death occurs a year or more down the line, it’s unlikely that anyone will suspect it being connected to the vaccine. Right now, even deaths that occur within 24 hours in people who were young and in good health are chalked up to coincidence, which is truly remarkable.
Comparing COVID-19 Vaccines With Flu Vaccines
Another way to judge the lethality of COVID-19 vaccines is to compare it to seasonal flu vaccines which, by the way, used to account for a majority of vaccine injuries. As reported by The Vaccine Reaction:10
“The death rate following COVID mRNA vaccination is much higher than that following influenza vaccination. The CDC’s data allows only a ballpark estimation of the rate of deaths following flu vaccination. In the 2019-2020 influenza season the CDC reports that 51.8 percent of the U.S. population received a vaccine, which is approximately 170 million people.
VAERS reports that in the calendar year 2019 (not the 2019-2020 influenza season) there were 45 deaths following vaccination. To provide context, in 2018 VAERS reports 46 deaths, and in 2017 it reports 20 deaths.
The 45 deaths in 2019 are occurring at a rate of 0.0000265% when calculated using the number of vaccines given in the 2019–2020 influenza season. As of Feb. 26, 47,184,199 COVID vaccinations had been given with 1,136 deaths reported following vaccination, which is approximately a rate of .0024%.”
Are These Deaths Pure Coincidence?
As of March 5, 2021, the youngest recorded death shortly following COVID-19 vaccination was 23.11Among the more recent reports is that of a healthy 39-year-old mother who died of multiple organ failure just four days after receiving her second dose of the Moderna vaccine.12
The average age of death post-vaccination is 75 and older,13 which is near-identical to the age of death for COVID-19 itself. However, whereas COVID-19 primarily kills elderly in nursing homes who have multiple comorbidities, the vaccines are cutting lives short among elderly who appear to be in relatively good health.
Examples include baseball legend Hank Aaron, who died in his sleep 17 days after receiving the vaccine. He was 86. His death was reported as completely natural and unrelated to the vaccine.14
Another is that of boxing champ Marvin Hagler who, according to his friend Thomas Hearns, was admitted to the ICU due to side effects from his COVID-19 vaccination. (Hearns had posted on his Instagram and Twitter accounts that Hagler was in the hospital ICU “fighting the after effects of the vaccine” and that he wanted fans to pray for his recovery.15
His posts have since been removed, but a screenshot of a retweet16 by Tariq Nasheed is still available.) Hagler died shortly thereafter. He was 66.
I suspect that once more celebrities start dying from the vaccines, more people might start to rethink their decision to get vaccinated. Mainstream media and industry-allied fact checkers are working overtime, though, to “debunk” any suggestion of a link between deaths and the vaccines.
Side Effects Range From Mild to Serious
Aside from sudden death,17,18,19,20,21,22 which is most serious of all, a range of other side effects are being reported, many of which will have a significant impact on quality of life. Examples of side effects reported after vaccination with Pfizer’s, Moderna’s and AstraZeneca’s vaccines from around the world include:
Persistent malaise23,24
Bell’s Palsy25,26,27
Extreme exhaustion28
Swollen, painful lymph nodes
Severe allergic, including anaphylactic reactions29,30,31
Thrombocytopenia (a rare, often lethal blood disorder)32,33
Miscarriages and premature birth.36,37,38 As of March 5, 2021, 85 cases of miscarriage or premature birth had been reported39
Chronic seizures and convulsions40,41
Severe headache/migraine that does not respond to medication
Paralysis42
Sleep disturbances
Psychological effects such as mood changes, anxiety, depression, brain fog, confusion, dissociation and temporary inability to form words
Cardiac problems, including myocardial and tachycardia disorders43
Blindness, impaired vision and eye disorders44,45
Stroke46,47
As reported by The Defender, March 5, 2021, while vaccine injury reports are growing in number, consistent trends have emerged, including the following:48
Overall, 31% of deaths have occurred within 48 hours of vaccination
People who report getting sick within 48 hours of vaccination account for 47% of deaths
About 20% of deaths are cardiac-related
A majority of these side effects are from the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, which use mRNA technology. The AstraZeneca vaccine uses a chimpanzee adenovirus vector genetically engineered to express the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein instead. However, while many hoped this vaccine would be safer than mRNA versions, this doesn’t seem to be the case.
As of March 16, 2021, more than 20 European countries had suspended the use of AstraZeneca’s vaccine, either in full or in part, following reports of deadly blood clots.49,50 According to a March 2, 2021, report51 by The Defender, U.K. data show the AstraZeneca vaccine actually has 77% more adverse events and 25% more deaths than the Pfizer vaccine.
Like AstraZeneca’s vaccine, Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine also uses an adenovirus vector to carry the gene for SARS-CoV-2 spike protein into your cells, thereby triggering your cells to produce this protein.52 Business Insider has created a comparison chart53 of the four vaccines currently available in the U.S. and Europe — Moderna, Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson.
Concerned Doctors Speak Out
Sadly, the vaccine debate is nothing if not one-sided. Medical professionals expressing concern are roundly ignored, despite their growing number. Among them is cardiac surgeon and patient advocate Dr. Hooman Noorchashm, who recently sent a public letter54 to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration commissioner detailing the risks of vaccinating individuals who have previously been infected with SARS-CoV-2, or who have an active SARS-CoV-2 infection.
He’s urging the FDA to require prescreening for SARS-CoV-2 viral proteins to reduce the risk of injuries and deaths following vaccination. He warns the vaccine may trigger an adverse immune response in those who have already been infected with the virus.
Immunologist Dr. Bart Classen has also warned there is troubling evidence suggesting some mRNA shots may cause prion diseases such as Alzheimer’s and ALS,55 and Dr. J. Patrick Whelan, a pediatric rheumatologist specializing in multisystem inflammatory syndrome, has expressed concern about mRNA vaccines’ ability to cause “microvascular injury to the brain, heart, liver and kidneys in ways that were not assessed in safety trials.”56
Doctors for COVID Ethics Want Answers to Safety Questions
February 28, 2021, a dozen doctors and scientists with Doctors for COVID Ethics published an open letter to the European Medicines Agency (EMA), expressing a number of concerns about COVID-19 vaccines. It reads, in part:57
“We note that a wide range of side effects is being reported following vaccination of previously healthy younger individuals with the gene-based COVID-19 vaccines. Moreover, there have been numerous media reports from around the world of care homes being struck by COVID-19 within days of vaccination of residents.
While we recognize that these occurrences might … have been unfortunate coincidences, we are concerned that there has been and there continues to be inadequate scrutiny of the possible causes of illness or death under these circumstances …”
Doctors for COVID Ethics is requesting the EMA provide responses to a series of questions, including evidence that gene-based vaccines won’t enter the bloodstream and disseminate throughout the body and be taken up by endothelial cells, and that platelet activation won’t result in disseminated intravascular coagulation.
Importantly, they also “demand conclusive evidence that an actual emergency existed at the time of the EMA granting conditional marketing authorization” for all three vaccines, seeing how by the time the vaccines became available, “health systems of most countries were no longer under imminent threat of being overwhelmed because a growing proportion of the world had already been infected and the worst of the pandemic had already abated.”
If the EMA fails to produce all of the evidences requested, the group demands “that approval for use of gene-based vaccines be withdrawn” until all safety issues have been properly addressed.
What to Do if You Regret Getting the COVID-19 Vaccine
If you already got the vaccine and now regret it, you may be able to address your symptoms using the same strategies you’d use to treat actual SARS-CoV-2 infection. I review these strategies at the end of “Why COVID Vaccine Testing Is a Farce.”
Additionally, if you’re experiencing side effects, please help raise public awareness by reporting it. The Children’s Health Defense is calling on all who have suffered a side effect from a COVID-19 vaccine to do these three things:58
Public health is an evidence-based profession dedicated to improving health and preventing disease. The politicalprocess is how public policy decisions—laws, regulations, tax policies, and the allocation of scarce public resources—are made by elected officials. (Evidence based, we ask?)
By Anne Dachel
On Mar. 16, 2021 ‘Tucker Carlson’ over at Fox News devoted almost 20 minutes of his show to exposing the duplicity and control practices of Dr. Anthony Fauci.
I’ve watched lots of news coverage at MSNBC and CNN where Fauci is always given the last word unchallenged, so it was refreshing to see Carlson examine the restrictions on American life that we’ve been forced to endure because Fauci said so.
What is the science out there that supports Fauci’s demands that we social distance at six feet and get a COVID19 vaccine? Carlson looked into it.
About 12 minutes into the show Carlson brought up the push for the COVID19 vaccine.
He asked two questions about the vaccines that everyone should be asking and noted that no one has answered them.
How effective is this corona virus vaccine?
How necessary is it to take the vaccine?
Carlson raised concerns about blood clots associated with three of the COVID vaccines.
I especially liked his comment:
It turns out there are things we don’t know about the effects of this vaccine and all vaccines by the way. It’s always a tradeoff.
It’s time someone asked why Fauci has so much power over our lives at the same time he doesn’t have to respond to the issues Carlson brings up here.
Tucker Carlson Tonight’ host examines differing COVID guidance from leaders and health experts over the past year
Carlson:But where did that law come from? Who did the scientific research that determined that six feet was the safest distance apart from other people you could be?
Somebody should have asked that question last spring, but as far as we know, nobody did ask.
It turns out that the research that formed the basis of that law came from a German hygienist, Carl Flugge.
It was Flugg who determined that six foot separations were necessary to slow the spread of pathogen.
The CDC went with Flugg’s judgment.
What the CDC didn’t tell us was that Karl Flugg had been dead for a hundred years. His research on social distancing was published in the 19th century, before most Americans had electricity or indoor plumbing.
So why is that research still guiding public health policy in this country in 2021?
It’s a good question. Experts don’t seem to have a good answer.
Last year, one of the top aerosol scientists in Australia, a woman called Lidia Morawska, likened social distancing regulations to a cult ritual.
“The dogma was born. Like any dogma, it’s extremely difficult to change people’s minds and change the dogmas.”
So dogma posing as science.
It was all just faith-based and had massive consequences. Millions of American school children have not been educated for a year because the CDC turned century old German theories about tuberculosis into a kind of modern state-enforced religious faith. …
Yes, our authorities are just that mediocre.
But the most infuriating part of it all is not that they were wrong, but that they won’t admit that they were wrong and apologize for it.
Watch Tony Fauci pretend as if six feet apart were some kind of unquestioned universally recognized physics principle like gravity or photosynthesis….
Fauci: “Everything on here, one way or the other, points to physical separation.”
“Whether it’s no crowds, whether it’s six feet, go out, wear a mask, stay feet away from anyone.”
“When you’re outside, stay at least six feet apart from someone.”
“I think if you stay six feet apart with masks, you can do whatever it is you need to do.”
“Every aspect of that ending the COVID outbreak in 30 days has some aspect of physical separation, whether that’s avoiding crowds, whether that’s staying six feet away from people.”
Carlson: If you stay six feet apart with masks you can do whatever it is you need to do.
Of course it sounds so simple. That’s why every elevator you get into, every airport check-in line you see, every convenience store has on the floor six feet apart on stickers.
It’s not hard. Just change every part of your life, every interaction you have with other human beings, and it’s totally fine. It’s not a big deal.
In the state of Washington, high schools tried their best to comply with Anthony Fauci’s pronouncement.
Here’s how one school adapted its band practice to conform to German germ research from the 1890s.
“Wenatchee High School finding a socially distance solution to get the band back together.
These so-called pods,set up in the band and choir rooms. Individual students getting inside sipping themselves in and then removing their masks to play their instruments or to sing.”
Carlson: Getting less oxygen is good for you, so get inside your little plastic pod like freeze dried people. It’s dystopia. …
The kids had no choice. The science was settled. That’s what we were told.
Well it was settled until last Wednesday when the Journal of Clinical Infectious Diseases found the law of six foot social distancing isn’t actually real. It’s not a law. It was a guess and it’s wrong.
Researchers looked at corona virus case rates in the state of Massachusetts, the school districts there, schools that required six foot social distancing and compared those with school districts that required only three feet of social distancing, and there were some.
Researchers found there was no statistically significant difference in corona virus cases between the two.
And it wasn’t just for students. It was also true for adult staff members.
The study also controlled for corona virus rates in the surrounding community.
It was not shoddy research. It was real, and here’s the conclusion:
“Lower physical distancing policies can be adopted in school settings with masking mandates without negatively affecting student or staff safety.”
This has massive implications, but mostly for people like Tony Fauci, people who spent the last year assuring everyone, the science is clear.
So if you had spent the last year saying that, insisting that 19th century German hygiene research was the last word on social distancing, if you’d staked your rapidly diminishing credibility on that fact, wouldn’t you apologize, now that the fact turns out to be a lie?
But Tony Fauci didn’t apologize for the fake science he’s imposed on the entire country.
He just nodded and kept going. …
Fauci on CNN was asked,
“…Does this study suggest to you that three feet is good enough?”
Fauci: “It does indeed.”
Carlson: It does. Not a big deal, just kept an entire generation of kids from learning anything. We’ll just move forward with the new science.
The charitable interpretation of the clip you just saw is that maybe Tony Fauci is finally learning something about science, because despite what they tell you, science is never final or absolute.
There is no settled science. That’s an oxymoron. Real scientists adjust their conclusions based on the evidence which is always changing. They ignore partisan considerations, but Tony Fauci didn’t. If he had, he’d already have known this because the study in the Journal of Infectious Diseases was not the first study to reach this conclusion.
In fact back in June of last year one of the leading scientific journals in the world, the Lancet, not a small publication, came out with a study on social distancing, and it found this: “For the general public, [that would include schools] evidence shows that physical distancing of more than a meter is highly effective.
So three feet was enough in June, they just didn’t tell us that. Other medical experts were saying the same thing. In fact last summer Dr. Mark Escott, the medical director for the Austin Public Health System, put it this way:
“I know that at three feet there’s about an 80 percent reduction of the transmission of the disease.”
So it’s not actually new information. It was ignored information, and we made policy on the basis of bad information, not on the basis of science, on the basis of lies justified by 19thcentury research into tuberculosis.
So why are they telling us this now?
Here’s one reason: the political balance of the country has changed.
With Joe Biden in charge, Fauci’s party wants to see the schools reopen because the public wants it. Parents are upset, and they should be.
So all of a sudden they’re changing the so-called scientific recommendation .
If that seems too cynical to be real, keep in mind they’ve done it before.
Last summer dozens of public health experts exempted BLM from corona virus restrictions, not because science demanded that BLM get a pass, but because they personally supported BLM.
The so-called scientific community signed a letter that will live forever in infamy claiming, “The risks of congregating during a global pandemic shouldn’t keep people from protesting racism.”
The scourge of white supremacy, the letter said, is a “lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID19.”
Oh, it contributes to COVID19. So you thought it may have escaped from a lab in Wuhan that was in part funded by the US government, with the knowledge of Tony Fauci.
So maybe Tony Fauci and the government of China might have something to answer for, but now we learn from the scientific community that your racism caused COVID.
In June Johns Hopkins epidemiologist Jennifer Nuzzo delared,
“In this moment the public health risks of not protesting to demand an end to systemic racism greatly exceed the harms of the virus.”
It’s hard to believe that a so-called scientist could write something like that on paper and not be held accountable for it….
That same month the governor of New Jersey, Phil Murphy, praised the BLM riots that broke out after the death of George Floyd on Memorial Day. Yes, there was a mandatory stay-at-home order in New Jersey and a public health emergency, of course, that justified it.
But Phil Murphy wasn’t bothered. He said that rioters were “taking to the streets peacefully to create a better future for our entire New Jersey family.”
So if they can justify a riot on the basis of public health, …What can’t they justify? What aren’t they justifying?
Our leaders and public health experts are clearly guided, some of them anyway, by politics. …
And what’s also becoming clear is how much these experts actually know about some of the topic they claim to be expert in. …
It’s just very hard to know what this virus is going to do. Viruses are hard to understand. This one is new, but no one will admit it.
So out of nowhere news stories pop up that seem to have no explanation.
Here’s one example, South Africa. …
Epidemiologists there predicted a surge in corona virus cases this year. Vacationers were returning from around the world, South Africa was still not under a strict lockdown, there was a new strain… There was no vaccine for most people in South Africa. It seemed like the perfect place for what Tony Fauci might call a super spreader event, a disaster.
But that’s not what happened. Since mid January, corona virus infections in South Africa have plummeted from more than 20,000 a day to about 1,000 a day. Less than 5 percent of corona virus tests administered in South Africa are now coming back positive.
The question is why. What is going on in South Africa? And the answer is, we don’t know. …
The problem is when the people in charge of our public health systems won’t admit that they don’t know.
12:00
So all of this should prompt some pretty tough questions for our public health experts in this country.
And one of those questions is: How effective is this corona virus vaccine?
How necessary is it to take the vaccine?
Don’t dismiss those questions from anti-vaxxers. Don’t kick people off social media for asking them. Answer the questions, especially now.
The administration would like you to take this vaccine. Joe Biden told you last week, if you don’t, you can’t celebrate the Fourth of July.
It turns out there are things we don’t know about the effects of this vaccine and all vaccines by the way. It’s always a tradeoff.
But in this specific case, Germany, France, Italy and Spain—these are not third world countries—have just suspended the distribution of Astra Zeneca’s vaccine. They’re saying it could be linked to deadly blood clots.
A month ago the New York Times reported the FDA and the CDC were looking into reports the Moderna and Pfizer’s vaccine could be causing blood clots as well.
The paper reported that one 56 year old physician called Gregory Michael developed a severe case of a blood disorder, platelets in his blood dropped three days after taking the vaccine. Without those platelets his blood couldn’t clot. He died of a brain hemorrhage after two weeks in the hospital.
Should this scare you? We don’t know, but the rest of us deserve an answer.
Instead our leaders are acting, once again, as if the science were totally settled, and you’re not allowed to ask a question.
Look at the vaccination rates in certain states and it’s pretty clear some people are not taking the vaccine on purpose.
If you want them to take the vaccine, don’t berate them. Don’t issue more commands. Calm their fear by rationally explaining the benefits and the risks of taking the vaccine. That’s how you deal with adults.
But instead they’re telling you, if you want to see your grandparents ever again, you’ll shut up and take the shot.
CDC spokesperson clip:
“If you and a friend or you and a family member are both vaccinated, you can have dinner together, wearing masks without distancing.
“You can visit your grandparents if you have been vaccinated and they have been too. “
So instead they just lecture us like they’re our parents, which they are absolutely not. …
The patronizing never stops.
As Joe Biden has told us, it’s possible that you can cook a hot dog in your own backyard in July if you’re obedient.
They tell you this is all about protecting the elderly and flattening the curve…
The question is in real life what happens if you are an older person and you don’t obey. Well we have an answer to that.
A 65 year old woman in Galveston, Texas learned on March 11th what happens when you don’t obey.
This was one day after the governor of Texas lifted that state’s mask mandate and reopened Texas.
That woman, apparently believing news reports that it was a free country, walked into a Bank of America branch. That’s when, to keep her safe, Texas police officers violently attacked her. …
So just to be clear, she wasn’t trying to rob the bank. She didn’t pass the teller a note saying she had a bomb or a firearm, she just wasn’t wearing a mask in a state where there is no mask mandate.
“Is anyone going to get real here?” she asked, she screamed as she’s thrown to the ground by the police. But they did it though to keep her safe.
She was under the impression she could go into a Bank of America branch in full compliance with state law without being thrown to the ground. Texas could be in trouble.
But to be fair, if that woman had read more CNN articles she’d know that actually she had it coming. …
According to CNN, facemasks are a sign of respect.
No mention of respecting people who don’t wear facemasks. They’re not worthy of respect.
But wearing a facemask will “help the US return to normal,” because it is totally normal to shield your face from the people around you. …
Wearing your mask is a sign of respect and if you don’t do it, you’ll be beaten in public for your own good.
And as our media will tell you, it’s not just banks that mandate this new sign of respect. Over at NBC News, a similar piece is now advising readers on how they ought to behave at the gym, unless they too want to get thrown to the ground.
“Instead of taking your mask off to drink from a water bottle, slip the straw under chin of your mask.
“If you need to shower at the gym, shower as quickly as possible and only remove your mask when your face and head is going to get wet.”
So NBC News is now telling you how long you’re allowed to shower and how you’re allowed to drink your water with your mask on….
This is science. Don’t dare question the competence of the people who told you to never wear a mask just a year ago. That would be disrespectful to our public health experts.
And you know what happens to people who show disrespect to public health experts.
Thank you for your coverage of this important piece by Tucker Carlson.
To add to it, here is Dr. Pam Popper’s email message from yesterday, also very important:
The Forbidden COVID-19 Chronicles The Makers of COVID-19 Vaccines: Johnson & Johnson Pamela A. Popper, President Wellness Forum Health
While some people enthusiastically anticipated the release of COVID-19 vaccines, others have a much more cautious view, and a significant percentage of people state that they will not receive ANY COVID-19 vaccines. The new term for people who are concerned about vaccines is “vaccine-hesitant” (medical authorities finally acknowledged that negative name-calling was not helping their cause) and health officials are concerned about this rather large and growing group of people. Why are 35-40% of Americans (depending on the survey cited) refusing to take one of these vaccines? One commonly cited reason is the track record of the vaccine makers.
Take Johnson & Johnson, for example. The company announced that it received Emergency Use Authorization for its single injection COVID-19 vaccine on February 27, 2021. The vaccine was developed by a subsidiary, Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies, and is available for individuals age 18 and older.[1]
Both Johnson & Johnson and Janssen have made and distributed drugs and vaccines for a long time in the U.S., and both have paid large fines to state and federal governments. Since 2000, J&J and its subsidiaries have been charged 55 times with criminal or civil crimes and have paid a total of $4,247,381 in fines.[2]
J&J and its subsidiaries paid over $2.2 billion in 2013 in one of the largest healthcare fraud settlements in the history of the U.S.[3] Here are just a few of the details (from Department of Justice documents):[4]
J&J subsidiary Janssen Pharmaceuticals marketed Risperdal, an antipsychotic drug, for unapproved uses. The company’s drug reps promoted Risperdal to doctors and other prescribers who treated elderly dementia patients, falsely claiming that the drug was effective for symptoms like anxiety, agitation, depression, hostility, and confusion.
Blatantly disregarding the fact that at the time Risperdal was only approved for the treatment of schizophrenia, Janssen created an “ElderCare sales force” to market the drug to prescribers. The company’s business plan stated that its goal was to “[m]aximize and grow Risperdal’s market leadership in geriatrics and long-term care.” Written sales aids and promotional materials were developed for reps to use when calling on doctors. The company provided incentives for off-label promotion and based bonuses for its salespeople on total sales of Risperdal in their territories, not just sales for FDA-approved uses. The company also paid kickbacks to doctors who prescribed the drug. Reps told doctors that they would receive generous speaker’s fees if they were prolific prescribers.
The company’s illegal practices resulted in the filing of false claims with federal healthcare programs. Additionally, J&J and Janssen paid kickbacks to Omnicare, Inc., the largest pharmacy specializing in dispensing drugs to nursing home patients. These kickbacks were falsely categorized as market share rebates, data-purchase fees, grants, and educational funding. The kickbacks were designed to incentivize Omnicare’s pharmacists to promote Risperdal to nursing home patients.
Janssen was warned by FDA officials on several occasions that claims that Risperdal was safe and effective were misleading. FDA officials told Janssen executives that behavioral problems in elderly dementia patients were usually not due to psychotic disorders and were more likely “appropriate responses to the deplorable conditions under which some demented patients are housed…”
According to the Justice Department, both J&J and Janssen knew that Risperdal increased the risk of stroke in the elderly. The companies manipulated data in order to cover this up. When a J&J study showed that taking Risperdal significantly increased the risk of stroke and other adverse events, Janssen executives combined the data with other studies to make it look like the drug actually lowered the risk.
A second study confirmed the risk of Risperdal for elderly patients. When it looked like the company was not going to publish the data, a physician involved with the study advised Janssen that “[a]t this point, so long after [the study] has been completed…we must be concerned that this gives the strong appearance that Janssen is purposely withholding the findings.”
Another complication of Risperdal was increased risk of diabetes. First, the company outright lied, promoting Risperdal as “uncompromised by safety concerns (does not cause diabetes).” When confronted with research showing that Risperdal increased the risk of diabetes, just like other antipsychotics, the company hired experts to re-analyze the study and to publish articles stating that Risperdal actually lowered the risk of diabetes.
The company’s behavior seems particularly egregious since the targeted population for the unlawful prescribing of the drug were some of the most vulnerable people. In addition to elderly nursing home patients, Janssen promoted the drug to children and adults who had developmental disabilities. Records show that both J&J and Janssen executives knew that there were several risks associated with prescribing Risperdal to children. These included the risk of elevated levels of prolactin, a hormone that stimulates breast development and milk production. Nonetheless, Janssen’s “Key Base Business Goals” included growing and protecting market share for children and adolescents for Risperdal. Reps were instructed to call on psychiatrists and facilities that treated children, and to promote Risperdal as a safe and effective drug for children with attention deficit disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and autism. The company was warned repeatedly by FDA not to promote the drug for use in children.
It is important to note that there are other side effects of Risperdal that are quite concerning, including tardive dyskinesia, fatigue, drowsiness, fever, weight gain, dry mouth, restlessness, anxiety, insomnia, vomiting, stomach pain, constipation, cough, sore throat, and skin rash.[5]
Drug companies make so much money that multi-billion-dollar fines for criminal behavior are just a cost of doing business. Thus it is not surprising that in 2019, an Oklahoma judge ruled that J&J had intentionally minimized the risks and misrepresented the benefits of opioid drugs. The judge wrote that J&J had used “false, misleading and dangerous marketing campaigns” that “caused exponentially increasing rates of addiction, overdose deaths, and babies born exposed to opioids.” The company was ordered to pay the state $572 million.[6]
I’ve presented here just a couple of the episodes in which J&J and/or its subsidiaries were caught committing criminal fraud and engaging in activities that resulted in considerable harm and even death for large numbers of people. The company is a serial offender, yet the federal government continues to allow it to do business in the U.S., and routinely approves new products submitted by the company, such as its new COVID-19 vaccine.
I can’t fathom that anyone who knows about J&J and its prior bad acts would agree to any medical intervention produced and marketed by it. I certainly won’t.
Tucker Carlson’s show is “must see t.v. for me”. In my humble opinion he has proven to be unafraid to openly question the numerous “narratives” .. such as BLM protests being “too important” they should be exempt from covid restrictions … being propagandized by our main stream media .. and .. like others before him (Lou Dobbs, Bill O’Rielly, Graham Ledger, etc) .. the possibility of him being removed from his show would not surprise anyone.
Having said that .. Tucker said this: “It turns out there are things we don’t know about the effects of this vaccine and all vaccines by the way. It’s always a tradeoff.”
Duh … where has Tucker been the last two DECADES as the vaccine industry … working alongside our public health regulatory agencies .. have worked tirelessly DENYING parents their INFORMED CONSENT on what vaccines .. if any .. those parents want administered to THEIR MOST PRECIOUS RESOURCE .. THEIR CHILDREN?????
State after State have removed all legal EXAMPTIONS .. PHILOSPICAL, RELIGIOUS, MEDICAL … from the most aggressive vaccine policies in the world .. with children being routinely DENIED THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO PUBLIC EDUCATION … while at the same time DENYING THOSE PARENTS THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO SUE IN A CIVIL COURT FOR INJURIES CAUSED BY VACCINES.
Parents have been asking the very same questions about vaccine “safety and efficiency” for DECADES without any satisfactory answers from both .. the vaccine industry and public health regulators that are providing NON SATISFACTORY ANSWERS REGARDING COVID VACCINES.
Over 5 BILLION DOLLARS has been awarded to parents and victims of vaccine INJURIES … which should surprise NO ONE .. even Tucker acknowledges ALL VACCINES HAVE RISKS … according to Supreme Court .. vaccines are UNAVOIDABLY UNSAFE .. yet .. THEY ARE MANDATED FOR EVERY CHILD .. NO EXAMPTIONS PERMITTED.
Unfortunately Tucker is far too late to the problem … which has been the IMPOSSIBILITY FOR SCIENCE TO CREATE A “ONE SIZE FITS ALL VACCINE” .. it is not only IMPROBABLY … IT IS SCIENTIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE SCIENIFICALL IMPOSSIBLE … BUT THE RISKS TAKEN ARE BEING FORCED UPON OUR CHILDREN EVERY DAY.
Sexual Abuse Bill Dies In Pennsylvania March 23, 2021 Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on a sexual abuse bill that will not see the light of day: The sexual abuse of minors has long been the subject of a proposal that would provide a suspension of the statute of limitations in Pennsylvania, allowing alleged victims to pursue their claims in court. To succeed, the House and Senate had to amend the state constitution, which they did in 2019; Gov. Tom Wolf signed the bill. However, it was soon learned that the Wolf administration failed to initiate a public review process, thus stopping the proposal from being put on the ballot. To rectify this error, an emergency constitutional amendment was proposed, but it was killed on March 22 by state senate Republicans. The real story here, at least for the Catholic League, is the unmasking of Rep. Mark Rozzi, the most vociferous lawmaker in favor of the bill. The Catholic League has fought every proposed state law on this subject, wherever it has been introduced, that gives a free pass to public institutions. We know what the game is—”let’s get the Catholic Church.” Unlike the public schools, which still have a serious problem with the sexual abuse of minors, the Church has long since cleaned up its act; current news stories are almost always about old cases of abuse. But that means nothing to people like Rozzi, a lawmaker beholden to the teachers’ unions. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairwoman Lisa Baker called Rozzi’s bluff. She offered an amendment to the bill that would apply equally to public institutions, eliminating the shield provided by the doctrine of sovereign immunity. Her amendment would also have eliminated the limit on the amount of money victims could sue for (claims against public sector employees are capped at $500,000). In other words, the public schools would be treated the same way as the Catholic Church. Predictably, Rozzi went ballistic. His only interest was payback: he claims he was abused by a priest when he was a minor. While we understand his anger, this hardly justifies his enthusiasm for a law that flagrantly discriminates against the Catholic Church. If a lawmaker who was abused years earlier by a public school teacher were to introduce a bill that only targeted the public sector, giving Catholic schools a pass, we know what the teachers’ unions would say. In 2017, Rozzi said he heard from “grown men and women whose lives had been destroyed by ministers of every denomination, scout leaders, public and private school teachers, coaches, missionaries, and worst of all, family members (my italic).” Yet he did nothing to help those abused in the public schools. No institution, public or private, should ever be exempt from these laws. It is high time that every state repealed its strictures on sovereign immunity. Contact Mark Rozzi: mrozzi@pahouse.net
Catholic author Mary Fabyan Windeatt in her 1949 book “Saint Paul the Apostle” explained how St. Paul after his near death stoning at Iconium illustrated that by loving Jesus Christ with our mind, heart, will and sufferings that we win more “souls for Heaven than if [we] had spend a hundred years preaching the Gospel” and can be heroes for Christ:
“He’ll never be well,” Timothy told himself. The Jews from Icomium have ruined everything.”
But when several weeks had passed, Paul rallied suddenly. Staggering, he rose from his bed and insisted on going out for a walk. and before an hour had passed he had a convert!
“I don’t understand!” cried Timothy, when Paul told him about it. ‘How did you do it when you didn’t even preach a word?”
Paul looked thoughtfully at his young friend. “By suffering,” he said, smiling.
“Suffering?”
“Yes. Didn’t I tell you once before that God can use our weakness best of all?”
[… ]
“I have been thinking a great deal about Stephen.”
“The young man who at Jerusalem?”
“Yes. Only not of that death so much as the one that Stephen died before.The real death.”
[… ]
“I mean that when Stephen gave up his own will, he won more souls for Heaven than if he had spend a hundred years preaching the Gospel!”
“But I can hardly believe that!”
“It’s true. The Lord doesn’t need our words and actions, but he does want our love – our hearts and wills. When we have given Him these, we have given everything. We have died on the Cross just as He did, and won the greatest blessings for a sinful world.” (Pages 64-65)
Catholic author William Thomas Walsh in his 1943 book “Saint Teresa of Avila” showed how there are more St. Stephens and St. Pauls “generation after generation” in the Catholic Church:
“About this time her [Teresa] duties brought her into contact with one of the older nuns who was dying of the most painful and disgusting disorder: as the result of oppilations, she had in her belly open wounds, though which emerged whatever she ate. Some of the nuns seemed afraid of the poor woman’s malady; but what impressed Teresa was her remarkable patience. the nun was one of those mystics who so penetrated the paradoxical secret of suffering at the heart of Christianity that she could endure all the pain and humiliation, not merely with resignation, but with a positive joy which no one can understand without witnessing it, as it recurs in convents generation after generation.”
“The face of such a person, offering her sufferings in union with thse of Christ on the cross, takes on something of the unearthly beauty, peace, and sublimity of her Master. And so it seemed to Teresa that waht she saw in that Christlike face was worth any price that might be paid for it in terms of human inconvenience. It must be paid for, however, and the price was pain. From the heart of that magnanimous heart of the novice, vital and alert in the bloom of her youth, there leaped a prayer, a prayer that was incomprehensible even to Christians who have not penetrated the center of their Faith; she asked God to give her a similar patience, with whatever sickness might be necessary to achieve it. It seemed to her afterwards that she she asked this not through love of God, but through a more selfish desire to obtain eternal happiness for herself as soon as possible; however, she did have the courage to make the request. The nun died soon after.” (Pages 49-50)
Yes, our prayers and sufferings, even the smallest prayers and sufferings, when united to Christ “bring us greatest blessings for a sinful world,” for our families and for ourselves.
There is an old four page pamphlet titled “The Apostolate of Suffering” that shows us a way to be heroes for Christ which on the cover has a drawing of Jesus on the Cross saying to us:
The pamphlet, moreover, says Don’t Waste Suffering! Pay the Ransom – for Souls:
Why should there be an Apostolate of Suffering?
I have been redeemed by the Cross. Therefore I must cooperate in the salvation of souls. I can be and I desire to be an apostle in my sufferings. Tears shed without love are wasted and embitter the soul. To weep with love consoles, sanctifies and redeems. No one is nearer the Crucified King.
Fr. Mateo, SS.CC. in the pamphlet, writes:
Let those who are ill, those who suffer, those whose hearts are breaking under the Cross, listen to the words of life, of comfort and of hope that I address to them in the name and for the glory of the heart of Jesus.
The world is going astray along a path of unbridled sensuality. You who are suffering and ill can stop thousands of souls on this downward path; you can rescue sinners and be apostles in your pain and weariness. You can purify, make reparation, and save souls by offering your sufferings as an apostolate of love.
Vanity, frivolity, forgetfulness of God, and outrages against His Law daily threaten to fill hell with souls. For love of Jesus, I beg you who are in anguish of soul to offer your family troubles, your sorrows and mental anguish as a missionary apostolate. Give them all to Him.
Priests and religious need help in their sublime mission; you, whose hearts are torn with sorrow and trouble of every kind, you who are misunderstood, families in mourning, orphans, do not lose your golden treasure, do not waste your precious tears – perhaps a father, a husband, a brother or a son is in danger of eternal death. Offer your sufferings, in the Chalice of Mary’s heart to Jesus Who thirsts for souls.
All you who suffer, do not forget that sorrow sanctified by love, becomes the holiest of missions, the most persuasive of sermons, the most fruitful of apostolates. So preach the Social Reign of the Heart of Jesus, even while you are nailed to the cross.
Mary Fabyan Windeatt in her 1949 book shows the above is the secret of true happiness and meaning in this life:
Paul smiled at the boy whom he had known only a few short weeks, but whom he had already loved as a son. “Was Our Lord afraid of danger?” he said mildly. “Did He run away from suffering?” “N-no.” “Then why should we – His followers?” “But that was different! Jesus was the Son of God – the Messias! While you and Barnabas…’ “We’re only men?” “Yes.” Paul put his hand on Timothy’s shoulder. “But doesn’t the Holy Spirit whom the Father sent from Heaven strengthen and console us in our troubles?” Timothy was silent. And abruptly Paul began to speak about Jesus Christ. What was life for, if not to spend in loving and serving Him. What was there without Him but emptiness? An emptiness that made for misery and boredom, that made even the slightest pain something to be avoided, and death the worst of all loses.“To work for the Lord, and then to die for Him! That is the most glorious thing that can happen to a person!” cried Paul triumphantly. “Don’t you understand?”[…] “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain!” […] “For His sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and I count them as dung that I may gain Christ.”[…]
Paul had found the secret of happiness in this world. He desired nothing but the knowledge of Christ, for himself and others. As a result, death held no terror for him. After all, how could it. In a sense he already died, for his will was completely united to the Will of God.“
[…]
“Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I say, rejoice.” Finally: “May the peace of Christ, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and minds in Jesus Christ.”
Francis Notes:
– Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales totally confirmed beyond any doubt the possibility of a heretical pope and what must be done by the Church in such a situation:
“[T]he Pope… WHEN he is EXPLICITLY a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church, and the Church MUST either deprive him, or, as some say, declare him deprived, of his Apostolic See.” (The Catholic Controversy, by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
– LifeSiteNews, “Confusion explodes as Pope Francis throws magisterial weight behind communion for adulterers,” December 4, 2017:
The AAS guidelines explicitly allows “sexually active adulterous couples facing ‘complex circumstances’ to ‘access the sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist.'”
– On February 2018, in Rorate Caeli, Catholic theologian Dr. John Lamont:
“The AAS statement… establishes that Pope Francis in Amoris Laetitia has affirmed propositions that are heretical in the strict sense.”
– On December 2, 2017, Bishop Rene Gracida:
“Francis’ heterodoxy is now official. He has published his letter to the Argentina bishops in Acta Apostlica Series making those letters magisterial documents.”
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church by the bishops by the grace of God.
Posted inUncategorized|Comments Off on IT IS INEVITABLE THAT WE MUST SUFFER AT VARIOUS TIMES IN OUR LIFE HERE ON EARTH. IF WE JUST COMPLAIN AND SEEK TO ALLEVIATE THE SUFFERING, WE ARE WASTING PRECIOUS COIN OF THE REALM OF HEAVEN. OFFER TO GOD YOUR SUFFERING, IT IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD
SOME THINGS TO PONDER…PART IIIby E. P. UNUMMarch 22, 2021This is Part III of my series Some Things to Ponder. This one a sobering look at current events and a look back at some facts. I may be wrong, but I believe the best thing that could ever happen for the Mexican Drug Cartels was a Democrat presidential victory back in November. Indeed, in many respects, this is their “rainy dream” (to put it nicely). Joe Biden is like manna from heaven for the Mexican Drug Cartels. Before El Jefe Grande, Presidente Biden decided to unilaterally do away with all things Trump and open up our southern border, discarding what worked to control illegal immigration under President Trump. Experts estimated the money made on drug trafficking by the Mexican Drug Cartels at around “$500 billion a year.” That’s half a trillion dollars a year. Trillion with a “T.” What’s the source of that estimate you say? It is what Senator Purdue (R) said at a hearing of the Senate International Narcotics Control Caucus, June 11, 2019. But before you scream foul, it doesn’t count because he is a Republican, here is what Senator Diane Feinstein, a Democrat had to say at that same hearing: “The illicit drug trade is a business, valued at anywhere between $426 [billion] and $652 billion…” Get the picture? Follow the money. Do you think the people and children coming across our border are coming empty-handed? If so, you are living in a fantasy land. They are bringing drugs of all kinds….cocaine, fentanyl, heroin worth hundreds of millions of dollars, maybe billions on the street. How much do you think is flowing back into the coffers of politicians from this windfall? Do you really believe the telephone numbers children are carrying with them are contact information for relatives living in the United States? Are you a special kind of naïve? Oh, you think these are insensitive, hysterical, unfounded comments? Well, think back to the evidence we heard about Hunter Biden’s scheme with the Chinese Communists when he accompanied then Vice President Joe Biden (now our current president) on Air Force 2 and walked away with $1.5 billion in “venture capital investment” ostensibly to set up a company that included Joe Biden himself as the “Big Guy” with a 10% stake. Did you forget about Tony Bobulinski who tried to warn us about what Joe and Hunter Biden were up to well before the election took place? Isn’t it strange that the mainstream media kept this completely under wraps and few people knew about it? Who else do you think might have their hands in the till? If America and Mexico wanted to eliminate the cartels and their operations in Central America, they could do so quickly. Why then do they persist? Keep in mind, the Cartels are also pocketing millions in illicit fees they collect from families in Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mexico along with terrorists from Yemen, Syria, Iran, North Korea, and China who infiltrate America through our now porous southern border. Children unaccompanied by their parents are arriving in the thousands seeking entry to the United States. Does any of this make sense to you? Why would parents send their children on such a perilous journey alone in the “custodial care” of groups specializing in human trafficking? Don’t you think someone is looking out for them since they are carrying some very important assets? And what are we doing about this lunacy? Oh, wait…Let mecircle back with you in a few months and I will give you yet another evasive snide comment for asking such good and probing questions, so says Jen Psaki the appointed town crier for President Biden! By the way, where is Hunter? I am given to understand that Joe Biden is scheduled to hold a press conference on March 25 when reporters can ask meaningful questions other than what is his favorite color. We will see then just how open this conference is. I wonder if anyone in the media will ask our President about Mr. Bobulinski? I just read Wayne Allen Root’s essay about our real president actually being Barack Hussein Obama and I believe he is 100% correct. What we are being treated to is the Third Term of Barack Hussein Obama and he, together with Susan Rice and Valerie Jarret, is pulling all the strings on Joe Biden who is president in name only. If you think about it objectively, there really is no other conclusion. Consider the following: 1. I challenge anyone to identify one single legislative or executive action taken by Obama that benefited America or Americans. Name just one. Ditto for Joe Biden and he has been in charge for only sixty days. 2. Virtually every action Obama took during his presidency was designed and intended to weaken America. He enacted more regulations on business than any other president with the consequential effect of stifling growth. He curtailed, and in many cases banned, oil and gas exploration making our nation more dependent on foreign oil. He weaponized the IRS against American citizens. He tried to force the Little Sisters of the poor to provide condoms to young girls. He was a proponent of the Paris Accord which would have drained America’s wealth in pursuit of climate change, a notion which is by no means settled science. He did next to nothing to reign in China or North Korea. His presidency marked a continuous spread of seemingly endless wars in the Middle East with no end in sight. He sent billions, $176 billion to be exact, to Iran, the single greatest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, and never told anyone in Congress about it until it had been done He insulted our ally, Israel intentionally. He did nothing to achieve peace in the Middle East, raised taxes on corporations and individuals, and presided over the greatest flight of capital from our nation in history. As our first black president, he did absolutely nothing to ease racial tensions, fostering instead a great schism between black and white Americans. He did nothing to reduce black unemployment. And, during his presidency, he alone increased our national debt by $10.0 trillion, more than all 43 Presidents before him accumulated in our nation’s history. 3. Under Obama, do you remember the videos and photographs of U.S. Navy Sailors being held captive by Iranian sailors in small gunboats, with their arms raised and hands clasped behind their necks? I do. Did Obama show any embarrassment or anger? In the recently concluded initial meetings of high-level diplomats from the Biden Administration and their counterparts in China in Anchorage, Alaska, the Chinese excoriated the Americans in a fifteen-minute tirade. Biden said he was proud of how our side conducted themselves! Remarkable. 4. Recently, Biden fell three times trying to run up the steps to Air Force One. The White House blamed it on bursts of wind. They have so little regard for us, just like Obama. We are no more than useful idiots to them. 5. Where was President Obama while our embassy in Benghazi was being overrun by a well-organized assault team armed with RPGs, machine guns, mortars, and assorted small arms? Where was Joe Biden? Since when do angry mobs show up at spontaneous protests so well-armed? This was no spontaneous reaction to a movie no one saw. It was yet another Obama lie, a storyline promulgated by the Triumvirate of Obama, Clinton, and Rice. Benghazi was a well-planned attack with a purpose, and that purpose was as despicable as you can get. Come to think of it, where was that tough guy Joe Biden while all this was happening? Was he in his favorite hang-out, his basement in Delaware? 6. Our nation did rejoice however when Seal team Six completed its mission of killing Osama Bin Laden in Abbottabad Pakistan. Afterward, it sure didn’t take Joe Biden long to give an interview with the Press, at which point he disclosed to the media the precise name of the unit that had prosecuted the action against Bin laden. In doing so, he put a target on the backs of Seal Team Six, and several months later a U.S. Chinook helicopter crashed in Afghanistan brought down by a shoulder-fired missile killing 38 servicemen several of the members of Seal Team Six. Can you guess where that shoulder-fired missile came from? Can you spell Benghazi,Libya? Joe Biden was just trying to let the world know that he was in the know about the Bin Laden mission, even though we now hear he was actually opposed to it. 7. Now, fast forward to 2021 and the Presidency of Joe Biden. If you look at his cabinet members and people assembled around him, it is strikingly similar to the people who served in Obama’s administration. The 52 executive orders issued by Biden are in no way beneficial to the United States and, indeed, are detrimental to our economy and moral standing in the world. We seem focused on things like proudly introducing new uniforms for pregnant female soldiers, renaming bases and schools, tearing down monuments to our history and Founders, and teaching our children the newest and latest cancel culture concepts like not referring to your mother and father with terms like mom or dad. We have developed a penchant for denigrating our history and trying to pick the fly shit out of the pepper, while China continues to move forward at breathtaking speed. And the world is watching us with great apprehension. Biden talks of unity but his actions are diametrically opposed to unity. They are divisive and make little sense economically, morally, and operationally… just like Obama! 8. We have yet to see Biden’s new tax plan unfold but all signs point to yet another devastating outcome for our economy. If Biden holds true to form, he will abolish the Trump tax cuts which will automatically increase taxes on everyone, not just the so-called wealthy Biden promised to focus his tax plan on. We do know that the Biden Administration is hell-bent on increasing corporate taxes, capital gains taxes, and personal income taxes along with a wealth accumulation tax and other assorted tax hikes in 2021. It is astounding to me that whoever is advising Biden has learned nothing from the consequences of these actions. Money is a mobile asset and will likely move offshore. That is what happened under Obama and it will happen again. Companies will move offshore. Executives will do the same and the American Middle Class will become squeezed once again in footing the bill. The end result will be a devastation to our economy and an inability to address our skyrocketing National Debt whose interest costs will eat away America’s wealth. Long ago, Joseph Goebbels, a German politician and Reich Minister of Propaganda for the Nazi Party from 1933-1945 had this to say: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic, and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
The takeaway lesson from all of this is that if we continually allow our elected representatives to lie to us as they have far too often done, then we will have committed ourselves to witness the obliteration of the last bastion of freedom and progress the world has ever seen. We will have irreparably damaged the future of our children and grandchildren and wasted the sacrifices of so many who came before them. We will have lived the prophetic words of one of our greatest Presidents, Abraham Lincoln who said so eloquently: “‘America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we lose our freedoms it will be because we have destroyed ourselves from within.” Do not let this happen. I implore you.

The Illegal Immigration Crisis: It’s All About New Covid Lockdowns By Brandon Smithalt-market.usMarch 18, 2021 In multiple articles I have published recently I outlined why an attempt at a new national covid lockdown in the US is inevitable. In my article ‘The Real Reasons Why Millions Of Americans Will Defy Covid Mandates And Vaccines’, I examined new polling numbers which show that a vast portion of the US population is refusing to comply with medical controls. The bottom line is this: Covid is a non-threat to 99.7% of the public, and the citizenry is getting wise to this fact. However, there are certain people that NEED the pandemic lockdowns to continue regardless of what the public wants. The Biden Administration and its globalist handlers have BIG plans for the next few years, and all of it relies on pandemic fears and totalitarian restrictions. The “Great Reset”, as Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum call it, is never going to happen unless global populations are locked down and placed under control. Unconstitutional pieces of legislation that undermine or destroy the 2nd Amendment, like HR 127, will be impossible to enact if Americans are organized and unified to resist. Carbon taxation and “shared economy” policies will never be allowed to touch ground. Conservative Americans and many moderates will stamp out such measures like cockroaches within their own states. Law enforcement agencies in most areas would have no interest in being used as cannon fodder to enforce them. The only option the globalists have at this stage is to barrel forward with the pandemic narrative despite the fact that Covid has turned out to be a hollow issue with a death rate of 0.26% outside of nursing home patients. At least half the country is ready to revolt over the mandates, and almost half the country is refusing to take the vaccines or accept medical passports. That is millions of people that are laughing in the face of the Reset agenda. So, the question for the thwarted globalists is this: How do they turn their conservative enemies into unwitting allies? What is a 4th Generation warfare solution to their problem? How do they get a larger number of conservatives to support their own enslavement through the lockdown mandates? Well, one method would be to cause a convincing distraction that compels conservatives to embrace the notion of the lockdowns as an acceptable sacrifice in exchange for dealing with a potentially more dangerous problem. The crisis of mass illegal immigration is turning into a growing national debate right now. I suspect we haven’t even begun to see the consequences yet, and I also suspect that there is a plot hidden within these events. But, let’s look at the surface arguments first… Obviously, most conservatives are going to view a huge influx of illegals into the US as a means for Democrats to secure elections for decades to come. I’m sure most people reading this article are aware of the “Cloward Piven Strategy”*, and I won’t delve into it too much here except to say that I get it, and I realize it’s a problem; it’s just not the biggest problem that conservatives should be worried about right now. Yes, this exact program of social dilution was used in Europe only a few years ago, and to be clear, this is not a problem of “race”, it is a problem of culture and ideology. Muslim culture and Sharia law, for example, are for the most part incompatible with Western society. Forcefully mixing the two is a recipe for disaster as we have seen already in the EU. When Muslims immigrate LEGALLY and individually assimilate into Western culture instead of trying to import their own culture by attrition, things work. Otherwise, things do not work. This is reality. By extension, mass illegal migration without assimilation of people from Central and South America into the US will also lead to disaster. These migrants are coming from predominantly socialist countries that have failed systems (that’s why these people are leaving and coming to the US). But, illegals tend to bring their socialist politics with them. They have no experience living within a culture that treats freedom as inherent and inalienable and are often motivated by access to government programs and handouts. This is why we have borders in the first place – to protect our society from intrusion and co-option by another society or group of people with incompatible values. Despite what leftists and some false libertarians might claim, without borders, freedom dies. Conservatives easily understand this simple concept, but leftists just don’t get it. They live in a Marxist fantasy land where Utopia is right around the corner and open borders are a magical tool for peace and prosperity. They also hate conservatives and that pesky Bill of Rights that we defend so much. They think inviting an army of potential socialists into the country will help to marginalize us and make us disappear. They’ll even brag about it openly on occasion. So, it’s not surprising that whenever a giant caravan of illegals starts marching towards the southern border, conservatives rally in opposition. We might even put more energy into this issue than we do for gun rights. Here is the problem…The migrant crisis is suddenly receiving heavy attention from the mainstream media after being ignored for months. Why is that? It feels as if there was a complete blackout on this issue, and now, the floodgates have opened and the media coverage is growing. With the amount of protection lavished on Biden by the MSM so far, their sudden critical position on his border policies has me suspicious. Since when do leftist corporate journalists care about the border? Well, reports of a possible “surge in covid” due to mass illegal migrations into America might explain everything. Think of it this way – The establishment and Biden need some kind of rationale for a new covid lockdown. I continue to predict that Biden will try to institute a Federal lockdown mandate similar to the Level 4 lockdowns used in parts of Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. They know that there is too much conservative opposition and that they will not be able to get red states to comply. But, what if conservatives were made to think that the border would be more heavily guarded and illegal immigrants rounded up if they supported a new lockdown policy? What if conservatives were tricked into supporting covid lockdowns as a means to control illegal immigration? The solution should be obvious: Biden should be enforcing border protocols and laws WITHOUT needing covid lockdowns. But, he’s not going to do that. What he’s going to do is keep the border as porous as possible, do little to stem the tide of immigrant caravans until the situation devolves into chaos, and then announce that a “new wave” of covid infections has been brought to the US by the caravans. Again, covid is a non-threat to 99.7% of the population outside of nursing homes, but what about a “covid mutation”? Brazil has been conveniently reporting such a mutation that is supposedly “more dangerous” than the original covid virus. As this variant spreads, whether or not it presents any actual danger, Biden will then announce a national lockdown including a hard lockdown on the southern border. The question is, will some conservatives be more inclined to back off of their opposition to the mandates if it means illegal immigration will be stopped? This is essentially a protection racket. In other words, Biden will refuse to protect the border until we comply with the pandemic restrictions, just as he and the establishment will continue to push for restricted freedoms until ALL Americans submit to vaccinations and medical passports. However, there is another way…Counties on the southern border can take over the job of securing the region and refuse to allow illegal migrants to pass. If the border patrol is understaffed or is being hobbled by the federal government, then the locals can take control and do the job that Biden refuses to do. Furthermore, if the problem persists and the federal government seeks to interfere in local efforts to secure the border, then it may be time to create new borders. It may be time to do that anyway. Conservatives and moderates have almost nothing in common with the political left anymore; conservatives want freedom of speech, the right to self-defense, the right to honest and accurate information, self-reliance, economic freedom, secure borders, and small government. Leftists support mass censorship, disarmament, business shutdowns, lockdown mandates, open borders, the big government nanny state, centralization, and tyranny. Perhaps it is time we separate and build the societies we want, and well away from each other. Let’s see which system thrives and which one collapses. Let’s see which system people want to join and which system people want to escape. My point is, at no time should conservatives feel compelled to accept covid lockdowns or other totalitarian measures just to get border protections from the federal government in return. And, I probably don’t need to say this, but don’t buy into the covid mutation narrative. The pandemic is a failed part of the Reset agenda, nothing more. The elites are trying to pick up the pieces and turn garbage into gold. As long as conservatives and liberty-minded people refuse to comply, their plans will crumble. And, if the border needs to be secured and the federal government refuses to do its job, then we should take control and make the border safe ourselves.
“The Suppression of Individual Masses in the Basilica came straight Jorge Bergoglio.
His aim is primarily to get rid of all the Traditional Latin Masses and also abolish the minor seminary which supplies altar boys for the private masses. At present there is an impending abuse case of priest at the minor seminary. When the sentence comes down the seminary is finished. Bergoglio tried to get the Chapter to do this suppression but the Basilica Chapter sided against it. He then he tried to get the Archpriest to do it but Comastri opposed it.”
