Daily Broadside | Big Pharma is Causing a Genocide of American Babies

Daily Verse | Job 21:23-26
23 One person dies in full vigor,
    completely secure and at ease,
24 well nourished in body,
    bones rich with marrow.
25 Another dies in bitterness of soul,
    never having enjoyed anything good.
26 Side by side they lie in the dust,
    and worms cover them both.

Wednesday’s Reading: Job 22-24

Mid-week and the first day of June 2022. With the close of May, we’re one-third of the way through Resident Buffoon’s term. I wish it were next January already so that Republicans can begin legislating and passing laws designed to diminish the influence of the anti-American Democrats.

Maybe we could even get them banned as a political party.

I’ve shared some of Dr. Naomi Wolf’s writing before. (Also here and here.) She is a feminist, and if I may quote myself quoting her, Dr. Wolf is, by her own admission, “a member of ‘[t]he progressive, right-on part of the ideological world — my people, my tribe, my whole life.’ This is important to understand, because she is not writing from a conservative point of view, which makes her essay more honest (in my opinion) and more urgent.”

Ditto with what I share below.

In an essay titled, “Dear Friends, Sorry to Announce a Genocide,” and sub-titled “It’s Really True: They Know they are Killing the Babies,” Dr. Wolf provides evidence “that Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew by December 2020 that the MRNA vaccines did not work.”

The WarRoom/DailyClout Pfizer Documents Research Volunteers, a group of 3000 highly credentialled doctors, RNs, biostatisticians, medical fraud investigators, lab clinicians and research scientists, have been turning out report after report, as you may know, to tell the world what is in the 55,000 internal Pfizer documents which the FDA had asked a court to keep under wraps for 75 years. By court order, these documents were forcibly disclosed. And our experts are serving humanity by reading through these documents and explaining them in lay terms. You can find all of the Volunteers’ reports on DailyClout.io.

The lies revealed are stunning.

The WarRoom/DailyClout Volunteers have confirmed: that Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew by December 2020 that the MRNA vaccines did not work — that they “waned in efficacy” and presented “vaccine failure.” One side effect of getting vaccinated, as they knew by one month after the mass 2020 rollout, was “COVID.”

Keep in mind that Pfizer and the FDA were forced to make these internal documents public. They wanted them sealed for 75 years — long enough for all the bad actors to enjoy life and die happy without facing the consequences of what appears to be a thoroughly evil decision.

Also keep in mind that one side effect of the vaccine—which was to prevent COVID—was getting COVID.

Here’s some of what Wolf and her team have found (I’m quoting at length):

  • Pfizer knew in May of 2021 that 35 minors’ hearts had been damaged a week after MRNA injection — but the FDA rolled out the EUA for teens a month later anyway, and parents did not get a press release from the US government about heart harms til August of 2021, after thousands of teens were vaccinated.
  • Pfizer [and the FDA] knew that … the MRNA, spike protein and lipid nanoparticles did not stay in the injection site in the deltoid, but rather went … into the bloodstream, from there to lodge in the liver, spleen, adrenals, lymph nodes, and, if you are a woman, in the ovaries.
  • Pfizer (and thus the FDA) knew that the Moderna vaccine had 100 mcg of MRNA, lipid nanoparticles and spike protein, which was more than three times the 30 mcg of the adult Pfizer dose; the company’s internal documents show a higher rate of adverse events with the 100 mcg dose, so they stopped experimenting with that amount internally due to its “reactogenicity” — Pfizer’s words — but no one told all of the millions of Americans who all got the first and second 100 mcg Moderna dose, and the boosters.
  • Pfizer skewed the trial subjects so that almost three quarters were female — a gender that is less prone to cardiac damage.
  • In the internal trials, there were over 42,000 adverse events and more than 1200 people died. Four of the people who died, died on the day they were injected.

I’m old enough to remember when we were all supposed to believe the science because shut up, they explained. Isn’t this all so science-y?

There’s more. Included in Dr. Wolf’s essay is a list of adverse events and side effects that were hidden by the CDC and FDA.

  • Joint pain and muscle pain (myalgia)
  • Neurological effects included Multiple-Sclerosis, Guillain Barre and Bell’s Palsy
  • Encephaly
  • Blood clotting
  • Thrombocytopenia at scale
  • Strokes
  • Hemorrhages
  • Ruptures of membranes
  • Blistering
  • Rashes
  • Shingles
  • Herpetic conditions
  • Red welts or hives
  • Violent fainting (think of college athletes collapsing on the field)

But this isn’t the worst of it and this, make no mistake about it, is fantastically evil.

It gets worse.

If Dr. Wolf is to be believed (and I’d take her word for it over anything the FDA or CDC has to say at this point), there is a genocide under way. This is how Dr. Wolf puts it:

Reproduction itself is targeted, intentionally or not, by the mRNA vaccines. And if you know that reproduction is harmed, and babies and fetuses are harmed, and you know that this is at scale, which everyone at Pfizer and at the FDA who read these documents, knew —and if you do not stop — then does that not ultimately become a genocide?

She then goes on to document how this is possible. In sum, the lipid nanoparticles in which the mRNA is delivered traverse the amniotic membrane, thus entering the fetal environment. Here’s the horror:

The Volunteers have drilled deep into the Pfizer documents’ reports about pregnancy and found that the assurance that the vaccine is “safe and effective” for pregnant women, was based on a study of 44 French rats, followed for 42 days (the scientists who ran the study are shareholders or employees of BioNTech).

The Volunteers found that while pregnant women were excluded from the internal studies, and thus from the EUA on which basis all pregnant women were assured the vaccine was “safe and effective”, nonetheless about 270 women got pregnant during the study. More than 230 of them were lost somehow to history. But of the 36 pregnant women whose outcomes were followed – 28 lost their babies.

I personally have knowledge of five women who were all pregnant. All five were vaccinated, and all five suffered miscarriages.

And our superiors can’t understand why we don’t trust them.

She goes on to report the evidence that the vaccines contaminated mothers’ breast milk (including four mothers who “reported ‘blue-green’ breast milk”), resulting in babies who didn’t thrive. She writes, “Coincidentally, with little formula available and with some or many (we don’t know) vaccinated moms having compromised breast milk, it turns out that Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, and Mark Zuckerberg have all invested in a startup called ‘BioMilq’ — which produces lab grown breast milk from mammary cells.”

Elsewhere, Wolf links to Israeli journalist Etana Hecht, who has offered her own astute analysis of what is being found: “Ms Hecht drew studies from three countries — Canada, Scotland and now Israel — to show that babies are dying disproportionately, during and after 2021, in highly vaccinated countries, and that newborns are dying disproportionately if they have vaccinated mothers versus unvaccinated mothers.”

After all that, Dr. Wolf transitions to what “we do with all this,” and it is strong medicine. I can’t reproduce it all here, nor do I want to. But it is worth your time to read, and I’ll conclude with just a snippet of what she declares, including her horror at what is happening and a retreat to prayer which, if you’ve followed her recently, is a new practice for her.

I am not saying that this is exactly like finding evidence of Dr Mengele’s experiments; but I am saying, with these findings, that now the comparison may not be that excessive. These anti-humans at Pfizer, speaking at the WEF; these anti-humans at the FDA; knowing what they know; are targeting the miraculous female body, with its ability to conceive, gestate, birth and nurture life. They are targeting the female body’s ability to sustain a newborn human being with nothing but itself. They are targeting the amniotic membrane, the ovaries that release the ovum, they are targeting the lymph and blood that help support the building up of mother’s milk, they are targeting the fetus in utero, helpless.

They are targeting the human fetus’ very environment, one of the most sacred spaces on this earth, if not the most sacred.

And they know it.

And they know it.

These evil men and women in Big Pharma developed a “vaccine” that they knew would cause harm, claimed it was safe, produced millions of doses — and then tried to cover up their deed by keeping the documentation hidden for the next two or more generations. Every one of these people should be arrested, tried and convicted of knowingly causing great harm to the American people and be put away for the 75 years the FDA wanted the evidence suppressed.

It’s a monstrosity.

Dr. Wolf doesn’t get into incentives. What could possibly motivate Big Pharma to offer a vaccine that harms those who get it? It doesn’t take a genius to figure it out.

New figures from the Peoples Vaccine Alliance reveal that the companies behind two of the most successful COVID-19 vaccines —Pfizer, BioNTech and Moderna— are making combined profits of $65,000 every minute. The figures based on the latest company reports are released as CEOs from pharmaceutical industry meet for the annual STAT summit —the equivalent of a ‘Big Pharma Davos’— from 16-18 November.

We live in evil times, and this is just the most recent unspeakable horror to emerge as evidence. I encourage you to read the whole thing from Naomi Wolf; the summary here doesn’t do it justice.

Daily Broadside | Huge Spike in Deaths in the 25-54 Demographic

Daily Verse | Nehemiah 4:14
“Don’t be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and your daughters, your wives and your homes.”

Tuesday’s Reading: 8-10

Tuesday and we’re already half way through May. “The days are long but the years are short.” Months too.

Riddle me this: Why is excess mortality skyrocketing?

Something is killing off large numbers of 25- to 54-year-olds in the United States, and the powers that be in government and the media are pretending it is not happening.  There is no visible effort to study the alarming statistics gathered by actuaries for the life insurance industry, which keeps track of deaths because they directly impact their bottom line through claims from the insured.

First spotted by Aaron Kheriaty, M.D. in a report from the Society of Actuaries Research Institute.

Note that these deaths are not Chinese Lung Pox deaths, but occur soon after the majority of the U.S. population (221 million or 67%) had capitulated to the vaccine merchants. The sudden spike of mortality from other causes in the 25-54 demographic in the third quarter of 2021 strongly suggests the Covid vaccines may have something to do with this.

So here we have evidence that may or may not indicate that people who participated in the grand lab experiment are at increased risk of a major trauma because they got vaccinated by an untested and unproven vaccine.

Here’s a chart from the original report that puts the spike in perspective. “The following chart shows the number of acquired immune disorders, including AIDS, that have been reported to VAERS as adverse reactions to all vaccines (including the Covid-19 jabs) by the year reported, and the Covid-19 vaccines only by the year reported.”

I hope that’s not you or your loved ones.

No one is even talking about this troubling finding. No one wants to create fear in those who took the vaccine — they can’t “undo” the taking of the vaccine. But we shouldn’t ignore what is happening, like the mainstream media is doing with this major development.

Daily Broadside | The “Science” Suddenly Aligns with the Election Cycle

Daily Verse | Leviticus 22:31
“Keep my commands and follow them. I am the Lord.”

Thursday’s Reading: Leviticus 24-27

Thursday and I have to correct the record. I wrote here that you’d have to wait until March 2033 to have some fun with numbers like we did on February 2, 2022. A friend reminded me that we have one more opportunity this month on February 22, 2022.

Even better! Make your plans now.

With that public service announcement out of the way, have you noticed that the Democrats and the media—yes, I’m aware I’m repeating myself—have suddenly done a 180 and are now proclaiming that it’s time to lighten up on The Necessary WuFlu Remedies Based on The Science? It’s like everybody suddenly discovered what conservatives and other freedom-loving people have been saying for the last two years: masks don’t work, the lockdowns didn’t work, and we’re just going to have to learn to live with it.

Gee, what could have prompted the sudden turnaround?

Oh. Ohhhh.

“The Science.” The science says that we should move on from Covid.

No, silly, not the “Covid Science.” The Political Science.

Democrats understand that they are facing a massive wipeout come November (notwithstanding the cheating, lying, irregular schemes the crime family known as the Democrats will pull). Brandon is under 40-percent approval rating, which means that he’s an utter disaster in the eyes of the country.

Even his own party is ignoring him.

Four states, all of which have Democratic governors, have announced in recent days that they are going to lift mask mandates for schools. Separately, deep-blue California is going to end its policy of requiring vaccinated people to mask while indoors next week.

But the Biden administration has promised to follow the guidance of scientists, specifically those at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC has not yet issued any change to its guidance on masking.

That leaves Biden in a bind.

The White House risks looking overly cautious on restrictions if it sticks with the status quo — a dangerous political position in a nation that has grown frustrated and restless after two years of pandemic restrictions.

On the other hand, the White House doesn’t want to sound an all-clear that turns out to be premature.

So much science!

Add to that a Monmouth poll showing that 70 percent of Americans agree with the sentiment that “it’s time we accept that Covid is here to stay and we just need to get on with our lives.” Everybody is tired of the two weeks to flatten the curve and the ineptitude of a lying Resident who promised he’d shut down the virus.

Now, some 500,000 deaths later under Brandon’s watch (396,442 people died while Trump was in office), the idiocy of that bit of hubris is plain for all to see. Brandon had to mark the grim milestone of more than 900,000 Covid deaths in the U.S. a week ago.

The main difference in the sense that it is time to move on is due to partisanship – ranging from 89% of Republicans and 71% of independents to 47% of Democrats.

An overwhelming majority of the country wants to move on, but not the Democrats!

This was and is a purely Democrat psyop—especially the Karen corps. My wife was ghosted in person by a US Postal Service Karen just yesterday who asked her to put on a mask and my wife refused. We later learned that USPS employees are required to serve all customers. But this government worker took it upon herself to enforce her personal Karen standard: no mask, no service.

And we fund that Karen’s paycheck.

The Democrats are in flames and they know it. They’re now embracing the idea of moving on from the Peking Lung Pox for the sole reason that they’re going to get demolished at the polls come November. It has nothing to do with “science” and everything to do with saving their cushy seats in the power centers of this country.

They’re hoping you and I forget everything they’ve put us through come the 2022 midterms. But this is not a time to “forgive and forget.” They’ve abused their power for not just “two weeks” but for two years. They’ve destroyed businesses, abused children, killed the elderly, and used the “pandemic” as a pretext to rig a national election.

Far from forgetting, we need to remind them that we’ve watched what they’ve done as they have extended their power beyond anything the U.S. Constitution recognizes and keep them from ever putting their hands on the levers of power again.

This about-face on Covid is a salvage operation. They abused the power that we entrusted to them, and that power needs to be taken away from them.

Daily Broadside | The Only Way to Break Free From the Madness of Crowds is to Get Facts-inated

Daily Verse | Genesis 19:26
But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.

Monday’s Reading: Genesis 21-23

Happy Monday and welcome to the next week in the ongoing saga of America Under Siege. Before Sunday service this morning I was talking with a friend about the hysteria surrounding the Chinese Bat Flu and its variants and how ridiculous we’ve all been in “following” the government’s “guidance” on dealing with the “pandemic” after the first two weeks to “flatten the curve.”

I closed the conversation with, “we’re led by idiots” to which he replied, “Absolutely.”

That shared sentiment is only one of two major ones with respect to the Peking Lung Pox, which I alluded to above when I mentioned the hysteria so many in our country have over the virus. People are still panicking over Covid like it has the power of Godzilla attacking New York City, when it is in fact no worse (now) than the common cold.

We’re experiencing something like a national psychosis. And I’m not far off the mark according to Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of the original mRNA vaccine patents and Medical Director of The Unity Project, a group of 300 organizations across the US standing against mandated COVID vaccines for children:

When you have a society that has become decoupled from each other, and has free-floating anxiety, and a sense that things don’t make sense, we can’t understand it, and then their attention gets focused by a leader or a series of events on one small point, just like hypnosis, they literally become hypnotized and can be led anywhere. And one of the aspects of that phenomena is that the people they identify as their leaders, the ones typically that come in and say, “You have this pain, and I can solve it for you, I and I alone, ok, can fix this problem for you.” OK, then they will follow that person through he(ll)—it doesn’t matter if they lied to them or whatever, the data are irrelevant. And, furthermore, anyone who questions that narrative is to be immediately attacked, they are the “other.” This is central to mass formation psychosis. And this is what has happened. We had all those conditions. If you remember back, before, 2019, everybody was complaining, “the world doesn’t make sense,” blah-blah-blah, and we’re all isolated from each other, we’re all on our little tools, we’re not connected socially anymore except through social media, and then this thing happened, and everybody focused on it. That is how mass formation psychosis happens and that is what’s happened here. (My transcription.)

In another article Malone provides other detail about mass formation psychosis:

What one observes with the mass hypnosis is that a large fraction of the population is completely unable to process new scientific data and facts demonstrating that they have been misled about the effectiveness and adverse impacts of mandatory mask use, lockdowns, and genetic vaccines that cause people’s bodies to make large amounts of biologically active coronavirus Spike protein.

These hypnotized by this process are unable to recognize the lies and misrepresentations they are being bombarded with on a daily basis, and actively attack anyone who has the temerity to share information with them which contradicts the propaganda that they have come to embrace. And for those whose families and social networks have been torn apart by this process, and who find that close relatives and friends have ghosted them because they question the officially endorsed “truth” and are actually following the scientific literature, this can be a source of deep anguish, sorrow and psychological pain.

[…]

As mass formation progresses, the group becomes increasingly bonded and connected. Their field of attention is narrowed and they become unable to consider alternative points of view. Leaders of the movement are revered, unable to do no wrong.

Left unabated, a society under the spell of mass formation will support a totalitarian governance structure capable of otherwise unthinkable atrocities in order to maintain compliance. A note: mass formation is different from group think. There are easy ways to fix group think by just bringing in dissenting voices and making sure you give them platforms. It isn’t so easy with mass formation. Even when the narrative falls apart, cracks in the strategy clearly aren’t solving the issue, the hypnotized crowd can’t break free of the narrative. This is what appears to be happening now with COVID-19. The solution for those in control of the narrative is to produce bigger and bigger lies to prop up the solution. Those being controlled by mass formation no longer are able to use reason to break free of the group narrative.

This all makes sense if you’re outside the C19 bubble. Nobody knew for sure how dangerous Covid-19 was when it was first identified, so we all agreed to isolate for two weeks to keep the spike in infections down so that hospitals wouldn’t be overwhelmed by the sick. But as we gained more knowledge about Covid, we found that those most at risk for the disease were older and had significant comorbidities, while younger people seemed to recover quickly and the very young were hardly affected at all. The overall chances of dying of Covid were infinitesimal, on the order of 0.5-1% with the risk of death substantially increasing in those aged 60 or older. We also learned that cloth or “surgical” masks were completely ineffective in stopping the transmission of the virus.

In other words, there was a lot of data suggesting we didn’t need to fear covid or take overly drastic measures except for the elderly, but the data and facts didn’t support the official narrative—and if you deviated from the narrative, you were shouted down or censored on social media. That continues today as Dr. Malone has been booted off of Twitter, notoriously known to silence those who contradict the official narrative.

What’s hard to get my head around is that this is all part of a plan. Not that I can’t believe those in charge wouldn’t attempt to do something like this, but that they’re actually smart enough to see the situation and take control of it in order to advance their agenda.

Here, in America.

Maybe we’re not led by idiots. Instead, they’re smartly following Rahm Emmanuel’s advice: “Never let a crisis go to waste.”

Daily Broadside| Happy New Year and So Long Omicron

Daily Verse | Genesis 1:1
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

Monday’s Reading: Genesis 1-5

Monday and the start of a new year. Hoping you all had a great celebration with loved ones. New Year’s celebrations have a lost a little luster for me over the last couple of years because they’ve felt like extensions of 2020 and “two weeks to flatten the curve.” We’re now in the third year of those “two weeks.”

Speaking of flattening the curve, all I want to do this morning is remind you of the ominous glee with which our rulers declared that “the unvaccinated” among us were facing decimation this winter with the ‘deadly’ Omicron virus:

But the Omicron variant isn’t delivering. For instance, the

… US is seeing fewer COVID-19 hospitalizations per case than in previous waves, suggesting Omicron is causing “milder disease” than previous variants, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday.

[…]

“While cases have substantially increased from last week, hospitalizations and deaths remain comparatively low right now,” Rochelle Walensky, the CDC director, told reporters at a White House briefing.

“While,” “comparatively,” and “right now” she says. You can almost hear the disappointment.

South Africa, where the Omicron strain was first identified and is a leading indicator of how the disease behaves, suggests further disappointment ahead.

“The drop in new cases nationally combined with the sustained drop in new cases seen here in Gauteng province, which for weeks has been the center of this wave, indicates that we are past the peak,” Marta Nunes, senior researcher at the Vaccines and Infectious Diseases Analytics department of the University of Witwatersrand, told The Associated Press. “It was a short wave … and the good news is that it was not very severe in terms of hospitalizations and deaths,” she said. It is “not unexpected in epidemiology that a very steep increase, like what we saw in November, is followed by a steep decrease.”

So the variant is behaving like epidemiologists expect: a spike followed quickly by a steep drop in new cases. And while no one can make guarantees, both the CDC and the senior researcher are finding that “hospitalizations and deaths” are not severe.

This again shows that our ruling elite either don’t know what they’re talking about, or they are using the occasion to try and frighten their subjects into compliance. In either case, they undermine their credibility when the situation doesn’t come close to resembling what they warn about.

It’s time to stop the fear mongering and accept Covid and its variants as a fact of life and treat it like the now-mild virus that it is. Take precautions if you’re more susceptible to disease, yes, but for the rest of us, it’s time to tell the government to stop picking winners and losers—because they can’t.

Daily Broadside | We’ve Been Had and They Know We Know

Daily Verse | Revelation 13:18
This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.

Thursday’s Reading: Revelation 14-16

Happy Thursday my friends. It’s the Last Day of 2021 Eve. If there’s anything you want to get done this year, now is the time to do it.

In keeping with the shorter posts this week, here’s a rundown on a number of recent developments concerning the Beijing Bat Blight and a conclusion that we all knew was true.

Resident Brandon’s brilliant plan to “shut down the virus” was what we all knew it was: a lie. It was political posturing, empty boasting, an unverifiable claim. He never had a plan to shut down the virus. The claim was preposterous on its face. Viruses can’t be “shut down.” Yet he ran on that claim and ran on it hard.

Joey Softserve going all gangsta’ with his mad boi tones and aviator shades.

Lying is as natural to him as breathing. You know how I know it’s a lie? Because he didn’t shut down the virus.

In fact, not only did he not Shut Down the VirusTM, the number of deaths from Covid under his administration is higher than under Trump’s—and Resident Biden had an advantage Trump didn’t: he had the vaccine handed to him.

According to The New York Times, as of Christmas, there were 814,891 Covid deaths in the U.S. And The Washington Post has deaths under Trump at 402,269. With some simple subtraction, we see there are 412,622 deaths under Biden.

The New York Times also just reported that the “seven-day average of U.S. cases topped 267,000 on Tuesday, with Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia particularly hard hit”—a new record!

Wait, wait, what was that thing Biden said about the number of deaths under Trump at their debate?

“220,000 Americans dead,” [Biden] said during the Oct. 22 debate. “You hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this. Anyone who … is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as president of the United States of America.”

I hear you, Resident Dopey, and by that standard, I’ll be expecting your resignation later today.

But wait! What’s this?! Biden admitting that’s he’s a fraud and liar:

“There is no federal solution, this gets solved at the state level.” — Resident 81MillionLOL

But wait, there’s more! Apparently, “The Science” has shown that Covid-19 doesn’t require a 14-day quarantine anymore. No! It doesn’t even require a 10-day quarantine! What “The Science” shows is that it only requires a five-day quarantine because only five days protects airlines from going bankrupt!

“As with healthcare, police, fire and public transportation workforces, the Omicron surge may exacerbate personnel shortages and create significant disruptions to our workforce and operations,” Airlines for America CEO Nicholas Calio wrote in a letter to CDC Director Rochelle Walensky on Thursday.

The letter, which echoes what Delta Air Lines wrote to Walensky on Tuesday, shows the airline industry’s increasing concern about the impact of the guidelines as Covid cases, particularly of the omicron variant, increase around the country.

That was December 23. The airlines, you see, are too big to fail. They must be rescued, so voila! Isolation guidance now follows “The Money Science,” which looks a lot like politics and big business.

“It really had a lot to do with what we thought people would be able to tolerate,” says CDC Director Walensky.

Oh.

We know we’ve been had by them. They know they’ve had us. And they know that we know that we’ve been had by them.

They can’t keep the lid on it anymore.

But they’ll try.

Daily Broadside | Finally, a Defense of Trump’s Amazing Presidency

Daily Verse | Revelation 9:16
The number of the mounted troops was two hundred million. I heard their number.

Wednesday’s Reading: Revelation 10-13

Wednesday and we’ve hit mid-week already and the Left has already peaked with hyperventilation about “Let’s go Brandon.” It’s mind-numbingly absurd, yet there’s undoubtedly a method to the progressive madness that we seem to be surrounded by.

Into the cyclone drops a book by Peter Navarro, one of President Trump’s three senior staffers who stayed with him all the way from the election in 2016 to the end of his first term in 2020. In his memoir, In Trump Time: A Journal of America’s Plague Year, Navarro reveals the disloyal staff Trump surrounded himself with, who ultimately became his undoing.

In Bruce Bawer’s review of the book he writes,

Mike Mulvaney, acting chief of staff, was a neverTrumper. Economic advisor Gary Cohn (now vice-chairman of IBM) “never saw an American job he didn’t want to offshore in the profane name of supply chain efficiencies.” Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross operated on “transactionalist Wall Street DNA.”

Navarro, who’d earned a Ph.D. in economics at Harvard, was brought aboard by Trump to deal with the China trade situation and build up U.S. manufacturing. He supported full instant tariffs to wipe out China’s trade advantages. But the White House was packed with people who passionately opposed tariffs and were uncomfortably chummy with the Chinese. Jared Kushner? A “panda hugger.” Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin? The “second coming of Neville Chamberlain” and as a “Judas” who’d made millions in Chinese business and who “simply couldn’t believe” that the PRC “posed any economic or military threat to the United States whatsoever.”

When virus deaths mounted in China, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s second-in-command Stephen Biegun, who’d been Ford Motors’ “offshorer in chief” to China, opposed a travel ban because he feared it would offend Xi. Living outside the Beltway but also exerting an outsized anti-tariff influence in the West Wing was the “Billionaires’ Cabal” – whose membership ranged from Sheldon Adelson and Steve Wynn (both heavily invested in Macao casinos) to Steve Schwarzman and Larry Fink.

He goes after Faux-chi, too, saying that “Fauci conspired to keep the first of the COVID vaccines from being unveiled until after the November 2020 election – the goal, of course, being to deprive Trump of electoral victory; as a result, tens of thousands of Americans were robbed of their very lives.”

But he also gives some insight into what happened with the Bat Flu response:

Trump has been widely criticized for the slowness with which his administration recognized the seriousness of COVID-19. In fact, according to Navarro, the fault lay not with Trump but with many of his advisors. Larry Kudlow publicly pooh-poohed the virus. Mark Short did a lousy job as head of the White House’s Coronavirus Task Force. Navarro, for his part, corralled U.S. business leaders into helping combat the pandemic. Among this book’s heroes are FedEx CEO Fred Smith, who, while fiercely opposed to Trump’s trade policies, readily provided planes to ship desperately needed testing swabs from Italy to six U.S. cities. Other corporate good guys include Honeywell, UPS, and Pernod (which shifted its factories on a dime from making booze to producing sanitizer). Among the bad guys: GM, which, it will be remembered, had to be forced to manufacture ventilators. Worst of all: Big Pharma.

Finally, he gets at the 2020 election:

After the shock of the 2020 election loss, Navarro was also shocked by the defeatism of many of his colleagues. When Rudolph Giuliani insisted on challenging the results, many White House officials accused him of “grandstanding”; after Rudy was put in charge of that initiative, Jared Kushner and others tried to foil his efforts. Trump attorney Cleta Mitchell complained that she’d warned GOP bigwigs since May 2019 about the Democrats’ plans to steal the election, but had been ignored. Meanwhile one major inside-the-Beltway law firm after another passed on representing Trump in his vote-fraud case – such being “the hardball Globalist Swamp reality of Washington, D.C.”

Voter fraud was scarcely in Navarro’s wheelhouse. But just as he’d switched from trade to COVID, now, confronted by apathy and duplicity all around him, he felt compelled to throw himself into the job of “definitively answering the question of whether the election was in fact stolen.” Poring through mountains of material from the four states under dispute, he concluded that the election had been “stolen beyond any shadow of a shadow of a probabilistic doubt,” and wrote a report to that effect.

Unfortunately, others who were expected to serve the cause failed it spectacularly. Lawyer Sidney Powell, who kept making extravagant claims on TV about election fraud, never produced any proof, thus making the whole effort look bogus. Attorney General Bill Barr also proved a crushing disappointment. But the greatest betrayal was that by Mike Pence, who on January 6, acting in his role as President of the Senate when that body met to certify the November 3 vote, could quite legitimately have paused the certification to give state legislators time to investigate claims of fraud. Instead Pence ended up, in Navarro’s words, being “the Brutus most responsible both for the final betrayal of President Trump and the unceremonious burial of electoral integrity.”

I don’t know much about Peter Navarro, but this book seems like it would be a good read … especially regarding the 2020 election which was, without a doubt, rigged (i.e. stolen) to favor the Democrats.

Daily Broadside | Courts Slap Down Vax Mandates—For Now

Daily Verse | 2 Corinthians 9:7
Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Wednesday’s Reading: 2 Corinthians 10-13

Happy Wednesday, Broadsiders! I dream of winning the grasshopper yodeling championship some day.

It’s December 1, 2021 and we’ve only got 40 more days until we can say we’ve survived a quarter of Resident Biden’s first (and only) term. Joey Waffle Cone is perhaps the worst chief executive ever inflicted on the United States of America. He’s a talentless bureaucrat who chases popularity and profit for himself and his family without regard for the actual citizens he allegedly “leads.”

But all is not lost. His approval ratings are in the toilet and he has just suffered several setbacks on one of his signature issues: the vaccine mandates.

In November, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) suspended enforcing Biden’s vaccine mandate on employers with more than 100 employees or face thousands of dollars in fines “after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upheld a stay on the mandate.”

Prior to the suspension of enforcement for the mandate, senior administration officials said OSHA would assist employers in developing their own vaccine and testing standards. Fines for willfully failing to comply with the mandate could reach as much as $14,000 per violation, with the potential for multiple citations per business.

Then, yesterday, Biden’s despotic overreach took a gut punch when two different courts ruled against him.

U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty in Monroe, Louisiana, issued the injunction (pdf) to expand a separate order issued on Monday by a Missouri federal court, which applied to just 10 states.

[…]

“If human nature and history teach anything, it is that civil liberties face grave risks when governments proclaim indefinite states of emergency,” he wrote. “During a pandemic such as this one, it is even more important to safeguard the separation of powers set forth in our Constitution to avoid erosion of our liberties.”

The second court blocked the administration’s vaccine mandate for federal government contractors and subcontractors.

“This is not a case about whether vaccines are effective. They are,” Van Tatenhove wrote. “Nor is this a case about whether the government, at some level, and in some circumstances, can require citizens to obtain vaccines. It can.”

He said that the question before him was a narrow one: whether or not Biden had the authority to impose vaccines on the employees of federal contractors and subcontractors.

“In all likelihood, the answer to that question is no,” Van Tatenhove wrote.

Even CNN has taken note of the setbacks, writing, “The Biden administration has suffered three major court losses since Monday morning, with orders freezing key federal government Covid-19 vaccine rules in certain parts of the country and, in one case, nationwide.”

Chris Cuomo was unavailable to report on the story.

Perhaps sensing the impending decisions from the courts, the Biden administration announced on Monday that the government won’t suspend or fire federal employees for violating its Covid-19 vaccine mandate until January.

The Biden administration has told government agencies that they can hold off on disciplining workers who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19 until after the holidays, saying the ​mandate was intended to “protect federal workers, not to punish them.”

The White House originally set a Nov. 22 deadline for federal workers to be fully vaccinated or face suspension or dismissal unless they were granted a religious or medical exemption.

See how big-hearted and friendly the government is? It’s for your own good!

If they were smart, they’d follow the example of Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida, which “currently has the lowest number of COVID-19 cases per capita in the United States.”

“Our governor actually follows data, and that’s why he’s so successful,” Gimenez, a Republican, argued. “He doesn’t really care what the mainstream media says. He does what he thinks is the right thing, following the data, and more often than not, he’s absolutely right. And when he’s proven right, everyone’s mum…he’s leading our state, and really, the rest of the country should be following our lead here in Florida.”

Exactly.

So much of the masking, social distancing, vax mandates and fear-mongering by our so-called “leaders” is nothing short of a power grab. It may look and feel like, “I’m from the Government and I’m here to help,” but that’s when you need to put your guard up.

Sure, offer vaccinations and new pills. Maybe offer proven treatments that already exist—like Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. Just don’t demand we take it or lose our jobs. That’s tyrannical.

Daily Broadside | Faux-chi’s Fear-Mongering Seems All Out of Proportion

Daily Verse | 1 Corinthians 15:19
If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men.

Monday’s Reading: 2 Corinthians 1-5

Happy Monday, my friends. I hope you all tryptophaned the light fantastic over the Thanksgiving holiday.

A quick update on me: I am feeling better most mornings, but still find that my energy drains in the afternoons. So many people I’ve talked to who have had the Asian Contagion have said the same thing: the after-effect of Covid-19 hangs on in the form of fatigue — in some cases, for a long time.

Now we have the new scare — the Omicron Variant. It never ends. We’ll be fighting this thing forever and every time there’s a new variant, the government will shriek about the threat and start ordering masking and lockdowns and a new vaccine.

For instance:

I stopped listening to Faux-Chi a long time ago. He’s a political bureaucrat who has gotten rich off the American taxpayer while he lies to Congress about funding the Wuhan Institute where these viruses were most likely developed. It’s not known yet if the new strain of Covid-19 is worse than the original or Delta or Omega strains. “There is currently no information to suggest that symptoms associated with Omicron are different from those from other variants,” says the WHO.

Fortunately, it sounds like the new variant is less severe than any of its predecessors:

The South African doctor who first sounded the alarm on the Omicron variant of the coronavirus said that its symptoms are “unusual but mild” in healthy patients — but she’s worried the strain could cause complications in the elderly and unvaccinated.

[…]

She called South Africa’s vaccine advisory committee on Nov. 18 after a family of four all tested positive for the virus with symptoms that included extreme fatigue.

[…]

“It presents mild disease with symptoms being sore muscles and tiredness for a day or two not feeling well,” Coetzee told the paper. “So far, we have detected that those infected do not suffer the loss of taste or smell. They might have a slight cough. There are no prominent symptoms. Of those infected some are currently being treated at home.”

Does Faux-chi’s “ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING” sound proportionate to you?

As I’ve said before, I’m not a doctor and I don’t play one on TV, but color me skeptical of anything our gub’mint says at this point. Disease is a part of life and while our political leaders can play a role, they should not be in charge of people’s health. And that’s what they’re doing with this (literally) manufactured crisis. They are attempting to herd all of us into a government-mandated program of vaccinations based on sketchy “science” and questionable statistics.

I’m not at all saying we shouldn’t be cautious with the new variant—I just came through a battle with some form of Covid-19 and 5 million people have died from it. I’m saying that we should be cautious about letting the government step into the role of doctor, telling all of us what we should be doing in response to the disease.

Think for yourself while you still have the freedom to do so.

Daily Broadside | This is How I Beat Covid 19

Daily Verse | John 10:33
“We are not stoning you for any of these [miracles],” replied the Jews, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”

Monday’s Reading: John 11-12

Happy Monday. I’ve taken so many pills the last two weeks I could be the poster boy for Pez dispensers.

I wish I could say that I’m returning in triumph like MacArthur wading ashore the Philippines, but the reality is that the Communist Virus is a strange little creation. I’d like to think the worst of it is behind me, but the effects defy easy categorization.

I’ll give you my experience to date, but I’m not a doctor and I don’t play one on TV. None of this should be construed as medical advice. This is what I did and it seemed to have helped manage the symptoms pretty well, but your results and mileage my vary. Be sure to consult a real doctor if you ever tangle with the Asian Contagion.

Because we knew the anti-Americans installed in the White House are suppressing knowledge of proven treatments like ivermectin, and box-store pharmacies like Walgreen’s and CVS are not fulfilling prescriptions for it in collusion with Big Pharma, we needed to find a way to not only get ivermectin, but to find a full prevention and treatment protocol that we could follow.

We chose to follow the protocols of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance. We downloaded and used this guide to purchase vitamins and other suggested immune-boosting therapies. We talked to a lot of friends and others who had had Covid-19 and asked them what they used. We purchased nasal inhalers that helped clean out our airways, we bought mouthwash to gargle with and rinse daily, and we also borrowed a nebulizer on the advice of a couple of different friends who recommended it. We also drank an elderberry juice extract that was supposed to help fortify our immune system.

We also monitored my oxygen levels with an inexpensive Oximeter that we picked up at Amazon. You want your oxygen levels to stay above 90. I’m guessing mine stayed at an average of 92 or 93.

We also ordered ivermectin to have on hand should we get infected. Little did we know how soon we would need it.

The one drawback about getting ivermectin is that without a local doctor to prescribe it, you’re going to pay through the nose to find someone who will and then finding a pharmacist or compounding pharmacy or mail-order compounding pharmacy who will fulfill it. We paid the freight and had some on hand when I first started showing symptoms, so I was able to begin treatment immediately.

Realize that the pharmacist is not your doctor. You can get the right dosage (it’s based on body weight) but you’re on your own when it comes to taking the meds you order. You’re basically self-doctoring.

I did talk with my doctor once I tested positive for Covid-19. He is not a supporter of the protocol I was following, but he did say that if I didn’t seem to be improving once I hit 9 days since initial symptoms, he’d recommend that I consider getting a monoclonal antibodies infusion. I eventually did, but we’ll get to that below.

Covid-19 was not at all what I expected. I have friends who told me it knocked them flat on their back and left them sweating at night; that they could barely get out of bed. I have had at least one friend who caught it, didn’t take any action, then ended up hospitalized and died of complications of the illness, not Covid itself.

But my experience was of a milder sort.

Here’s what I didn’t have: I had no runny nose, no throwing up, no persistent chills, aches or cramps, no coughing, no trouble breathing, no congestion, no headaches, no severe diarrhea, no reaction to light, no night sweats — the worst things you’d associate with a flu were completely absent.

What I did get and what marked my illness was a persistent fatigue. Yes, I did have the occasional chills, a cough here and there to clear out some minor phlegm in my throat, and an occasional spot of diarrhea. But it was just being tired that seemed to be the major symptom.

My nights got weird where I’d lie awake a night or two and then as morning was approaching I’d black out until noon. So things felt upside down and inside out on days like that. Once I was up, I just wanted to lie back in my La-Z-Boy and read. Or sleep. Sometimes I’d get up, eat, take my meds, and then go back to bed.

My wife would push me to take a short walk now and then. She would at least get me to walk from one end of the house to the other. Other days I was motivated to go outside and take a short walk across the yard. Fresh air was always good.

The one problem I ran into was that while I was almost through my 10 day quarantine, I wasn’t picking up any new energy. Some days I’d feel fine and bit more awake and able to stay up for the better part of the day, but the next day I’d be back to wanting to just sleep. It was frustrating because the symptoms didn’t stay consistent or show improvement over time.

I just wanted something to cut off the head of the virus for good.

One morning I had to visit the john around 2:45 a.m. I made my way there and sat down, but had an unscheduled meeting with the tile floor to discuss why my brain wasn’t getting enough oxygen. Fortunately, my heart was level with my head at that point, which apparently got it the 02 it needed, and my wife and the dog had the lights flipped on and were encouraging me to get up before she called 9-1-1. It took me a few minutes to reorient myself but we eventually got it all straightened out, with a knot on the side of my head for my troubles.

Later that day we decided to talk with a doctor that others had used and who supported the kind of protocols we were following. It was after talking with him, and his strong recommendation that I get the monoclonal antibody infusion, that we went beyond what we had been doing to that point. He recommended that treatment, and also prescribed a couple of other meds that have been effective at knocking down Covid.

That evening we chose a local hospital to get the infusion from, which challenged our trust, since we both agreed the last thing we wanted to do was be admitted. Once admitted, you lose your ability to call the shots and you’re subject to the hospital’s protocols. That’s what happened to my friend who died at the hospital with no one there to advocate for him or to be with him.

But the doctor and we thought my odds of just getting the treatment and getting out were good, which proved to be true. The whole ordeal was about 4 hours long, but the infusion itself was only 20 minutes. The worst part of it was sitting on a bed that was uncomfortable after about 15 minutes and being wired to pulse, oxygen, blood pressure and who-knows-what-else the whole time. My butt was sore and my arm was tired of being strangled by the blood pressure cuff every 15 minutes.

I got Regeneron, which is still an investigative drug. It’s formal name is REGEN-COV, and is authorized by the FDA under emergency use authorization. It took a couple of days to kick in, but I’d say it sort of helped push me past the last mile-marker in my experience with Covid.

I’m still recovering, no doubt, but at least I feel like there is progress.

The last thing I’ll say again is that I absolutely don’t regret not getting the vaccine. Not for even one second. Again, this is me, but having the experience I did, and now having the natural antibodies and the infusion of even more, which will protect me from the Delta variant, makes getting the vaccine redundant, unnecessary. How long I’ll carry immunity, I don’t know. But for the time being, I’m even less worried than I was over the last two years.

And you all know how worried I was (not. at. all.).

Finally, the most important thing we’ve found is to have a Christian community around you. I can’t tell you how encouraging it is to have neighbors who are willing to provide meals, cut the lawn, buy groceries, and pray and call and text. I’m sure it can be done without the blessing of the Church, but I don’t know why you’d want to.
