End the abuse of emergency powers. When we let government leaders break the law by declaring emergencies, they'll declare emergencies in order to break the law. A public emergency that involves any restrictions or mandates on the population's civil rights should require due process of law or a supermajority vote of both houses of Congress.

This worthless congress would have given the super majority needed. That’s not good enough. Emergency powers should be eliminated entirely. No exceptions.

You have a good argument there. The US Constitution has no Emergency Powers clause. The whole shit-show was illegitimate from the start and remains so.

the entire federal government is illegitimate. Everything they tell us is a lie. They are useless. A train full of toxic chemicals derails, their solution-start a chemical fire that turns into an explosion. The idiot in charge of transportation then speaks and says we need less white construction workers. The EPA says not to worry, they tested the water and its fine. Like anyone believes these liars. These are very unserious people, mealymouth bottom feeders that couldnt run a lemonade stand.

Yes I saw that on Tucker too. And let’s not forget how the Biden Admin very likely was the culprit behind the Nordstream bombing diseaster in the ocean. Yeah, so much for the Dems being the pro-environment party. It’s so outrageous one rubs their eyes asking, “Am I really seeing this???”

Where is that mentally challenged Greta with her "How dare you"? As a woman I am not violent, however there are a few I would love to take my hardest punch to the faces of Greta, AOC, John Kerry, Pete the Butthead. That is just a start, followed with nunchucks to many politicians here in Canada and the USA!!! The Nordstream bombing disaster is not forgotten, but will say President Putin has the patience of Job, but sooner than later the bear will strike, rightfully so. Hoping the DC area is flattened while all the banditos are present, then head to Ottawa with Castro Jr, and his crime family with the complaining pukes of so-called citizens that complained about our brave and peaceful , they too need a lesson learned. Sorry for the rant, however what is happening around the globe is insane, it needs a good wipe out!!

If you have an exception it needs to be a constitutional amendment that limits any emergency power to 30 days, prohibits the use of any emergency powers for any reason for 5 years, and restricts the use of those powers so that only state governments can declare the emergency. 30 days is plenty of time to call a legislative session. Use it wisely because you can only claim one for 5 years that can only last a month.

And ideally in the case of an actual emergency, no censorship permitted. All viewpoints be considered and weighed by some other means than a handful of health bureaucrats and constantly be re-evaluated regularly with transparency. Not sure how to implement, but debate and discussion are required. Probably goes without saying, especially here, but lack of this was a key aspect that allowed the whole response to go awry by design.

Most important:

It is unethical and immoral to demand that someone take a medical intervention against their will.

1. Enact a law that all drug (vaccine) mandates are illegal. For the military, education, HCWs, to receive health care (organ donation), play a sport, you name it, etc. That means that exemptions for religious or medical reasons would be irrelevant and also illegal.

2. In that same law, make it illegal to demand someone's vaccine status for any reason.

Other, not in any specific order...

1. All clinical trial raw data (including patients dropped from trial) published online.

2. All patients with adverse events must be included in the final safety & efficacy claims.

3. No delay in counting someone as having received a drug, i.e. not 2 weeks after the second shot.

4. FDA & CDC not funded by pharma or food conglomerates. Yes, I realize this would impact taxes.

5. Trial design open to the public for critical review. Not sure of the best approach, but trial design can be manipulated for outcomes and this problem needs to be addressed by experts without conflicts of interests.

6. Medical journals disallowed from receiving funding from pharma.

7. Media disallowed from receiving funding from pharma.

8. Pharma advertising disallowed.

9. Media disallowed from receiving financial contributions, i.e. saying/doing the bidding of oligarchs.

Just some ideas.

FDA and CDC are publicly funded. To outlaw an industry from advertising is unconstitutional. Like many, you ignore the hundreds of revolutionary new therapeutic agents developed and marketed in the last 10 years. The prognosis for life expectancy in cystic fibrosis has been enormously expanded by recent drugs, all of which are expensive.

Expand full comment

FDA & CDC receive a significant amount of funds from pharma. And pharma wasn't always allowed to advertise. I am very well aware that drugs are expensive to develop, that most drugs fail and that drugs that succeed cover the costs of the drugs that fail. Pharma is the biggest lobby and their influence needs to be reigned in.

I am in favor of quality, safe drugs and medical devices. But no product should be liability-free and no product should be mandated for any reason.

Drugs should not be advertised directly to consumers. They do not understand. They are vulnerable. One needs a prescription anyway.

Hangings are more primitive, so I like that...but a failed drop sets the perp free. But no one survives a firing squad. Plus, with firing squads, a bunch of us can be holding the rifles. There's only one hangman, though, IINM. Why should he get all the fun?

Expand full comment

Great point. My thought is that there should be a lottery for all who wish to, as you say, “hold the rifle”. Or pull the rope.

All the money raised to be used to help those who were forced to choose between feeding their children or getting jabbed. I would help both, those who resisted anyway and those who did not. Others would not agree but I bet we can sort that out satisfactorily.

$50 a ticket. How many millions would buy one? I think many millions. Personally I’d buy 100.

And with the numbers of those on the receiving end, so to speak, many winners.

If I were selected for the firing squad, I'd bring a live round with me, just in case they give me the one rifle with the blank.

No easy task. My understanding is that it's been banned in the US, but has been 'outsourced' to dozens (and perhaps hundreds) of laboratories on foreign soil under the auspices of the Department of Defense and other governmental agencies and NGOs, often funded with off-budget 'dark money' and/or through privately funded grants. Defenders of this kind of research will warn against the dangers of our enemies acquiring bioweapons before we can develop a vaccine.

There's also the fact that viral transmission is still poorly understood, and that our own immune systems are too advanced for any of this research to ever develop any virus which is likely do more harm than the flu or a cold (I don't believe that the actual impact COVID-19 was any greater than a seasonal flu). Passage through animals has been attempted by would-be bioweapon developers since before WW2, and has never been successful, scary urban myths nonwithstanding. Somehow the purposely infected animals either attenuate the virus through their systems, or, when given an extremely high input, simply die, and therefor cannot spread the infection. In my opinion, 'gain of function' research is simply a scam by academics to tap into a rich source of grant money.

You are missing the bigger picture. You are looking at the trees instead of the forest.

As long as healthcare is politically controlled by govt and special interests as well as by insurance companies and Big Pharma, as well as by corporate medical organizations, NOTHING WILL CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.

This healthcare system allowed this to occur as just about everyone in the system is CONTROLLED by the govt, corporate and other organizations.

If they tried this 30 years ago it would NOT have happened as most healthcare professionals were independent and not controlled by the system. They were independent thinkers back then. Now if they vocalize an independent thought against the present narrative, they are put in jeopardy.

So we need the healthcare system to change where individuals and their chosen healthcare professionals are in charge of their care, without any pressure, coercion, threats or mandates.

This means NO to govt single payer system that so many advocate for. If you ever want a good real life argument against government controlled single payer system, the COVID Plandemic is right here in front of you.

Look to the forest instead of the trees Alex.

You are assuming that the government doesn't have another agenda for the mRNA shots. No responsible person would continue to inject innocent people with the clot shot after the revelations of the past 2 years, so why are countries still pushing the shot? My guess is money (Trudeau and Bill Gates made fortunes off of the mRNA shots) or WEF puppets in the US and other western countries who are addressing their depopulation agenda. As Sherlock Holmes said, “When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”

We also need robust long-term safety study of all vaccines that includes not only all-cause mortality but also "all-cause" morbidity that would include all diagnoses contained within broad categories of disease (cancer, neurological disorders, autoimmune, GI disturbances etc...). This could already be done utilizing Scandinavian databases where you could compare fully vaccinated, partially and unvaccinated over the last 1-2 decades and look at "all-cause" healthcare utilization and diagnosis allocation. Could also utilize the VSD (vaccine safety datalink) in the USA for this purpose but it will never happen. Smaller studies that have utilized datasets from private practices have found higher rates of morbidity when comparing fully vaccinated to partial/unvaccinated. These studies have been criticized (legitimately) on methodological grounds. So lets do this right. Let's see if early exposure to adjuvants and immune stimulation might lead to longer-term immune changes which might impact multiple body systems, depending not he unique genetic and epigenetic risk factors of the individual. The huge uptick in neurological disorders, developmental issues, autoimmune diagnoses, allergies, asthma, and even GI issues merits considering whether a widely adopted population-level intervention may be contributing. Let's just look! Science! Hypothesis, Observation, Analysis, conclusion. This is not hard. Just takes money and motivation.

Good idea but it will never happen without a revolution. Pharma controls the present political order and will never allow an unbiased vax vs un-vax study.

Pureblood registry for our children. Three years' study isn't nearly long enough for the long-term risks the mRNA shots engender. I fought like hell to make sure my kids wouldn't be jabbed, and I'd like to know my grandchildren won't be at risk.

And make it easier to have directed blood donations -- my daughter is a cop, she and I have the same blood type, I'm on no medications. I should be able to give her my blood if she ever needs it. She's looking into directed donations as she is right now pregnant and (God forbid) if anything happens during delivery she doesn't want vaccinated blood. She can get blood from me, and 2 of my other kids (same blood type plus a kid who is a universal donor.)

Studies over 50 years have shown that there are almost no "lung-term" adverse reactions to vaccines. A vaccine administers a foreign protein into a person. The person's immune system recognizes the protein as foreign, develops early destroying white blood cells and memory mechanisms to destroy the protein and have an immune response within the person to mobilize in the event of re-presentation. If it is tetanus antigen, for instance, the tetanus protein is gone in a couple of weeks. The immune mechanism is stored and a rechallenge is generally needed in 5 to 10 years as a reminder. For some antigens, like measles and varicella, the immune memory is long-lasting. The only mechanism for long-term adverse reactions would occur in the rare instance by which the foreign protein provokes an auto-immune response. In other words, the foreign protein is similar enough to one of the body's proteins that an attack is made inadvertently on that protein. Fortunately, this is very rare,

"A vaccine administers a foreign protein into a person." Except that the mRNAs don't work like that, and as for the "rare instance by which the foreign protein provokes an auto-immune response," it...seems like that's happening around the world if the increase in cancers, etc. is anything to go by. Get a clue, guy.

These are all good ideas, but abolishing immunity is a revolutionary idea. "Team Reality" didn't start with Covid, it just got bigger. What the mRNA critics don't always realize is how deep the flaws in the current system go. If we removed liability protections, which I support, the vaccine industry as we know it would implode. Only monovalent live virus vaccines would survive a free market. That would be a good outcome.
