This is why the injunctions that are currently being filed to stop the vaccine mandates should instead be filed to STOP THE VACCINE PROGRAM. It is now abundantly clear that the FDA committed serious science misconduct and fraud in authorizing these vaccines. I listened to the entire, day-long FDA meeting to authorize the vaccine for children. None of Pfizer's recently released (through FOIA) data about all the deaths and injuries that were reported to the company in the first two months of Covid-19 vaccine use was even mentioned. It does not appear to have been considered at all. So, we're now being told to ignore not only VAERS but also all the reports of death and injury that go directly to the drug companies. This is fraud.

In addition, we now have the study from Circulation showing the vax more than doubles the risk of heart attacks.

The lawsuits should be to stop the entire program, not just the mandates.

I fully agree Darby, but it should also include a ban on mask mandates as well.

Why wait around for lawsuits to happen when there is also the power of WE THE PEOPLE TO NOT COMPLY. We all must stop waiting around for someone to do something, and band together en masse and NOT COMPLY -- not comply with masks, not comply with testing, not comply with mandates, not comply with The Narrative. Our collective power is far greater than we allow ourselves to conceive of.

Absolutely! Non-compliance is key. Hard for those that lose their employment due to a ‘mandate’, but that’s what litigation is for! We need to go after employers who bow to this tyranny.

Well said, and here is a lesson from history for everyone’s reflection. In 1905, the Fuller Court ruled in Jacobson vs. Massachusetts that states have some measure of authority to mandate vaccines. That same Fuller Court (albeit of a slightly different configuration) had decided just nine years earlier, in 1896, the landmark Plessy vs. Ferguson that essentially legalized racial segregation in the United States. A half century later Rosa Parks defied orders to vacate a “whites only” section and sit at the back of a Montgomery, Alabama bus. Importantly, when she defied that order fro the bus driver, she was technically in violation of the law of the land—separate but equal. The lesson for all of us Americans is that occasionally the laws that the politicians and even a majority of the public support are immoral, unjust, and ultimately impractical; and that the convictions and courage of a small minority, through civil disobedience and sacrifice, are sometimes the only means available to put our blessed land back on course. Our duty is to “Stand beside her, and guide her, Through the night, with the light from above.”

This is true. One of my employees mentioned to me yesterday that his elderly dad has the shingles. I commented, "Oh, yeah, from the vax. It reactivates shingles and other viruses." He said, "What?! The vax causes that?" He had not heard it from anyone, including his dad's doctor. I thought that was common knowledge at this point, but no, these people aren't hearing any of the stuff we hear every day. The power of the MSM...

Good friend of mine contacted me about her mom’s hair loss. I asked about her labs, all normal. Asked about booster. Silence.

Definitely autoimmune. No doubt.

There is no way to inform a sheep mindset if it is "set". These types have to feel incredible personal pain as in a reaction to an injection themselves or of a very close loved one to have any chance of seeing the truth. Even in such a scenario of personal pain I think a large majority of these types will simply get in line of another shot and then another and add a layer upon layer of masking if lord Fauci says so. The psychosis runs so very deep!

What particularly concerns me is that the increase in overall mortality we see now is not a temporary phenomenon but will continue indefinitely as the weakened immune systems of the vaccinated leave them vulnerable to the many diseases (including cancer) that the immune system protects us from. There are some who believe that this was the intent of the vaccine program all along. People who might otherwise live long, healthy lives will be dying in their 30s, 40s, and 50s of heart disease, cancer and immune disorders. Forty will become the new seventy.

I believe the existence of fraud on the part of the pharmaceutical companies as well as the FDA (and CDC) pierces the liability shield that was erected with both the Child Vaccine act of 1986 and PREP Act of 2005. Both of these legislations need to be repealed.

Criminal what they are doing. A 16yr old boy at my son’s high school had a heart attack during a hockey game last weekend and had to have emergency surgery. Cannot confirm his vax status, but I can guess as the school touts 90% of students have the vaccine. There are a few hold outs like my family who have natural immunity.

I agree but incredulously they are now attributing the heart related injuries and deaths to 'post pandemic stress disorder'. How they get away with this is astounding.

Exactly, and you have called it accurately. The entire program is a fraud and so harmful to young people…and, I’m afraid, per the Circulation article, no one is really safe from heart problems associated with the vaccine. I have two incidences in my family and one friend affected, both over 60.

When people start realizing that government bureaucrats don't have their best interest at heart, just donations, and also that is why the founders wanted a SMALL and LIMITED Government this will change. Its not going to change, there are far too many evil and greedy people feeding at the public troth, patriotic Americans who believe in the constitutional founding have become the enemy and a road block to their ends. This is why people sit in DC Jails right now without bail and without a speedy trial. The Court will only show them leniency if they step up and denounce a former president. Think about that.

I agree with you completely. It is horrible what has happened, and the only solution going forward that I can see is to cut the federal government by at least 90 percent. That alone won't fix everything, but it will be a good start.

Less government is truly what we need. I agree with both of you. A big obstacle to educating people on this is slowly being deteriorated, thankfully, by the speedy return to high gas prices (dependency on foreign oil), loss of jobs, less job creation, invasion at the border, and tyrannical mask and vaccine mandates, to name a few. Because this has happened so quickly, I think some, who would not normally be paying attention at all to their ‘rulers’, are now waking up. It’s going to get worse before it gets better so we need to keep educating those that aren’t Trump haters (which unfortunately make up a vast majority of those accepting the mandates like good sheeple, and stand firm with Biden, and would even support him if they saw him murder someone in cold blood on CNN) so they can conclude that this big government insertion in our lives now is horribly detrimental to our country and must be stopped.

To be more complete, the CIRCULATION study shows that the mRNA vaccines double the likelihood of a heart attack for the first 2 1/2 months after the second dose. The potential heart inflammation does subside after 10 weeks so the mRNA vaccines are nothing but a risk alternator. Take the vaccine, reduce the risk of COVID death (which is low at 0.3% anyway) but increase your chance for a heart attack for ten weeks. From week ten to week thirty, you are in a reduced COVID, reduced heart attack "slice of heaven" period, but then you take the booster and start the process all over again. And no one knows about the long term effects of repeated COVID shots.

This is insanity. My son has gone to community college in NJ since September 2020. He is in the automotive program so he has been going in-person this whole time. Starting next semester in January, they are either requiring the vaccine or weekly testing. We took the testing option. I guess we should consider ourselves lucky that this college is offering testing. The county college my daughter just graduated from is also requiring the vaccine starting in January, but no testing option. (They went to different colleges because our county college did not offer the automotive program) My son will be able to finish the program next fall. He already has a well paying mechanic job and will hopefully be using that and his degree as a stepping stone in the near future. I told both of my children testing might be inconvenient for a while, but it's less inconvenient than myocarditis. My daughter had two heart conditions when she was born, and after two procedures and 20 years of visits, in 2020 her pediatric cardiologist said she was good as new and discharged her, telling her to follow up with a cardiologist in ten years. I've seen my daughter on the operating table and do not want my children to have to go through possible heart problems from a vaccine they do not need.

Good on ya! You're kids are so lucky to have a mum who has done so much research into things that affect them!

Thanks for your well wishes. During his first year, he had 3-4 doctor visits a month. Once he had 4 in a week! :( However, he's doing GREAT now and, honestly, as hard as it all was (including my 14 nights in the hospital off and on and surgery for the first three months of his life), it really taught my now 9-year-old daughter a lot about life. My husband and I have a stronger marriage and we have been a team getting my daughter what she needs, including private school (away from her soul crushing public school - so not like it was when my husband and I went to public schools in the 90s) for the past 2 years.

My beloved grandma always said "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger," and I think that is why my family has handled all this Covid crap better than most because this is so not the worst crisis we have faced. Not so much for some suburban, wine drinking progressives.

Here's one sure-fire way to stop this madness: Have one student who has received the jab and suffered a side effect (doesn't have to be myocarditis, but severe is better) file a LAWSUIT against said college or university. They may be able to mandate the jab for their students but they are then 100% LIABLE for any adverse effects.

If they get sued for a couple million dollars, I predict they will instantly recognize the consequence of their actions. Unfortunately, that is likely the only way they will stop this insanity.

Thank God my kids go to school in Florida - At University of Florida - they have no vax mandate and no longer have even the mandatory testing(this was done very quietly). When my child had Covid over the summer, an email was sent that waived the Covid testing for 3 months due to having COVID. The testing mandate was never restarted when the 3 months were up and if you look on the UF COVID website - no requirement. Check out how low the COVID rate is for UF. Masks are almost gone (but not quite inside) I suspect masks will be gone by next semester. Check out our new Surgeon General of Florida he works at UF.

Yes, forced sterilization is even done today in the United States. It is even sometimes a part of a probation deal with 'women who do drugs'. They have to agree to be sterilized before they can be released. Of course, it is not very often but it is still allowed and done in a limited way.

Totally agree. I’m also an alum and current ND parent. There has been a good amount of pushback on social media so we’ll see how it translates to real life. There are kids who got the first shots asking if they can get an exemption for the booster, so that’s encouraging.

Domer here too. Glad to hear there is some pushback but we need a groundswell! I have one applying next year and I don't want her to miss out on her dream school b/c of the idiocy of a vaxx mandate!

My son in law was forced to take vax to stay in UCSD Aerospace program, this is insane and criminal that no one can be sued in case of bad side effects. My kids just want me to shut up at this point. Ugh.

Perhaps one day they will realize and appreciate that a caring parent will try to protect their child (no matter what age).

You can sue the person who forced the shot on him, e.g., his employer.

We need to support the colleges and universities that reject the woke ideology and show respect for their students by not mandating the vaccines. Hillsdale College, where two of my kids went, is obviously a great example. I recently attended their 4-day seminar on "The Great Reset." It was fantastic, and being there was like being transported back to 2019. (Alex, I heard your lecture there recently.) I also have a child that attends Spring Arbor University, a small Christian liberal arts college in Michigan. There have been no vaccine mandates or even mask mandates, and they've not had to resort to online classes the whole semester. And even the sociology classes and a class on sex and gender have been even-handed. I've been very pleased. We need more of these institutions and we need to let other like-minded individuals know about those that already exist. There will be a winnowing of colleges in the coming year, so we have to throw our support to the good ones.

And when a school does the right thing, make sure you thank them! Let them know it's important to you.

I support Hillsdale on a yearly basis. I provide a modest scholarship for a student in the memory of my Christian conservative husband who passed away from cancer. I have also designated part of my estate to the college. This school is remarkable. Great choice Natalie.

I despise what most higher education has done to our children. They go in as eager open minded learners and come out liberal progressive zombies.

Schools have gone full communism. Again this happened many years ago, only now they are proud members. The university systems are all corrupt. Where I lived, they proudly stated they never invited any conservatives to speak there. Think about that. The city was about half conservative, but that voice was silenced. I blame conservatives that just let it happen. They gave the universities the power to force thought. When I first moved to city, it was a happy university system. When I left 20 years later, nothing but extremism and sadness. The only thing that matter was pushing anti white, anti patriotism, anti sports, anti business, etc.

In Massachusetts, UMass Ahmerst, Northeastern, Boston College and Emerson have already mandated boosters for spring semester. I'm sure more will do the same before the end of the day. This is absolute INSANITY. The biggest problem is that people here love this stuff. They are FOR mandates, even for little kids. They are uninformed, innumerate, irrational -- and they're in charge.

Add Notre Dame to the list now requiring boosters to return winter semester. Glad she graduated last May, as part of the 10% of the senior class that remained un-vaxx’d. She had had it in March 2021. She’s now at Univ of South FL, without requirements. 🎉

If you have high school students looking at college, call the admissions office and ask what their covid policy is and how they treat their students. If it is onerous or untenable, tell them why your child will not apply to that school. It needs to be direct pushback from potential students who reject their approach. There are colleges that do not require vaccination. My sons attend college in Texas (no vax requirement), and after visiting family in Illinois for Thanksgiving, we came home with Flu A. The college doctor had not had a positive flu test in well over a year and our pediatrician had not had a positive flu test since 2019! For me, I felt like it was a sign that we are moving past covid.

My daughter is a freshmen at Penn. Both parents and students were notified that next week they will be holding a Booster clinic on campus. They are encouraging all students to get the boosters but are not yet requiring them. They've been doing mandatory testing every 2 weeks and all students had to be vaccinated to attend this fall. There have been cases but, on my daughter's dorm floor, not one single person has tested positive and these kids are spending lots of time out at parties, bars and in each other's rooms. Lots of colds/coughs but not one positive case of Covid out of 50 kids on a floor. Praying they don't make it mandatory but certain that it will become mandatory.

Expand full comment

It's coming for sure. I get those Penn emails as well. The booster clinics are normalizing it, social media and advertising will put on the pressure, and by the time Penn mandates the boosters, most kids will probably already have had them.

I'm sorry :( How does your daughter feel about this?

Expand full comment

Do you also have a student there? She is rather ambivalent. My husband agrees with me but all of our kids are being "normalized" vis a vis social media, etc to think these are necessary. They literally do not realize how little risk they have in getting ill from Covid. Plus, each of my kids knows friends/people who have had Covid with zero symptoms (asymptomatic cases found from mandatory testing). She will likely go get it but I'm encouraging her to wait until the last possible chance.

I'm a parent of a high school junior. She is looking at colleges now. I really want to be sure to send her to one that is at least balanced in view points, but preferably one that leans conservative. We know of Hillsdale (which I love!) and a few others, but can anyone point me to a list of schools or ways to research schools that will give an accurate description of the 'politics' of the school/faculty? This is a very difficult time to have conservative values and be sending your kids to college. And not attending college still really isn't a great option for young kids. That is much easier said than done in our society. This may change in time, but we aren't there just yet. Appreciate any input from this community!

Just do your homework. I wanted to bequeath some money to conservative Christian schools, plus donate for yearly scholarships. After a year of research, letters, phone interviews and in-person visits I decided on Hillsdale college and Ave Maria university in Florida. I’m enthralled with both places. As a florida resident I’m proud to say this is a great school.

Good luck Colorado mom. You’ll do your kids proud. You’re on the right track!

Health officials in the US are deliberately trying to make the vaccinated believe that their risk of covid19 infection is solely due to the unvaccinated.

They also think they're going to die from Covid19 if they get it.

I'm not convinced that elderly people should get this vaccine. It barely makes sense without the clotting/myocarditis. All vaccines carry a risk of adverse-side-effects, this virus' IFR continues to drop as it mutates. This is all crazy.

Here in NY, I hear people blaming Floridians for being stubborn.

The vaxed versus the unvaxed, rather than the government, is the objective.

The answer is simple folks - stand strong and do not comply.

This will be harder and more consequential for some folks, and we understand. But this will not end until a sufficient “intolerant minority” (to borrow from Taleb) makes it clear that we will not comply.

Folks this is a world wide phenomena (mandates, lock downs, quarantines, etc.). This is no coincidence. Why don't the "experts" (self identified) discuss therapeutics? We're focusing on the trees and can't see the forest. This so-called pandemic is being used as a tool to contain, control, and identify (the noncomplying). Their methods are obviously failing to reduce the COVID cases and this is becoming more evident with each passing day. However, that doesn't matter...do as they say or else! They will always obfuscate and blame the noncomplying. Our only hope is to push back and refuse to comply. Educate all those who will listen. We are being governed, educated , and informed by radicals who have nothing in common with the liberals of the past. Wake up! Stand up! Our freedom is at stake.

If Xi/Omi leads to global natural immunity (either thru high transmission rates or on purpose Omicron parties), what are "they" going to do? They could declare victory and bask in echo-chamber adulation and like Scrooge McDuck slosh around in the trillion$ they now control. One could hope that that is all. Unfortunately, history says that they will not go gently into the night. Power over people is addictive (ask Jeffrey Epstein), and absolute power is irresistible. The next step will involve trying to implement complete top-down control. "How many fingers am I holding up?" "How many do you want me to say?" "Yes, you are well now and may go" ... But then elites will fight among themselves, and when elephants fight, the grass gets trampled.
