[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

At his press conference today, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro accused me of promoting conspiracy theories because I told him, during an earlier telephone conversation, that some Americans had religious objections to the MMR vaccine because it contained fetal tissue. “There is no fetal tissue in the MMR,” he told me.

This is a segment from a videotaped deposition of Stanley Plotkin, the inventor of the MMR vaccine. Plotkin admits to butchering 76 aborted normally developing fetuses, all over three months old, in just one of the many studies that led to the development of his vaccine.

The rubella virus used in MMR-II is grown on the cultured cell line composed of lung tissue from an aborted three-month-old female embryo and listed as “WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts” in the ingredients of MMR-II as portions of these cells end up in each vial of MMR II.

During Dr. Plotkin’s deposition, Attorney Aaron Siri asked: “Isn’t it true that MMR II contains approximately 150 nanograms cells substrate double-strand DNA and single-strand DNA per dose purposefully fragmented to approximately 215 base pairs in length?” Dr. Plotkin answered: “Yeah, that’s probably correct, yes.”

This equals approximately 646 billion pieces of human DNA from an aborted fetal cell line in each vial of MMR-II.

In addition to the human DNA, there is also an unspecified amount of human cellular debris in each dose of MMR-II.

During our phone conversation, Governor Shapiro also accused me of promoting vaccine misinformation. When I asked him for an example, he was unable to provide one, but this did not deter him from publicly repeating that accusation during his press event. As I told him, HHS does not tolerate misinformation by any employee. I offered to point to hundreds of instances of vaccine misinformation by the Biden administration about which I had never heard him complain.

Governor Shapiro also faulted me for the decline in Pennsylvania vaccination rates from 97% - 93.2%. When I pushed back on this assertion, he acknowledged that most of the decline occurred during the Biden administration. It’s unfortunately true that the government lockdowns, deceptions, manipulation, and overreach during Covid severely damaged public faith in the vaccine program.

Governor Shapiro’s press conference was an example of the same species of gaslighting.

The Trump administration is working to restore public trust not by gaslighting or manipulating, but by being truthful, at last, with the public.

[Valerie Anne Smith @ValerieAnne1970]

They buried the truth and punished the messenger.

Bernice Eddy stood in a lab in 1955 holding the evidence: live polio virus still active in the Cutter vaccine lots. She showed the paralyzed monkeys. Officials released the shots anyway.

Tens of thousands of doses were injected and children paid the price in iron lungs and graves.

Years later she uncovered SV40—a cancer-linked monkey virus already injected into millions through the same vaccines. She raised the alarm again. They stripped her of her lab and her career.

The ones who warned were erased.
The ones who greenlit the risk kept the titles, the funding, and the power.

This is not ancient history... this is the operating system of the vaccine cartel industry.

[Rodi =AMERICAN @PaintingRodin]

Most people hear the word Bolshevik and immediately think of the Soviet Union, red flags, and communism. They imagine it started in Russia as a ready made communist movement. That is not true. The real story is quieter, more important, and far more dangerous.

The word Bolshevik simply means one of the majority. It comes from the Russian word bolshe, which means more or greater. It was born in the summer of 1903, not in Russia, but in Western Europe.

In July and August that year, a small group of Russian Marxists held the Second Congress of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party. They started in Brussels, Belgium. Belgian police pushed them out, so they moved to London. There, in meeting rooms and a chapel, the split happened.

The argument was not about communism. The party still called itself Social Democratic. Its members followed the ideas of Karl Marx, a German thinker who lived and wrote mostly in Western Europe. They wanted to end the Tsar’s power and build a socialist future. The fight was about how the party should work.

Vladimir Lenin wanted a tight, professional group of full time revolutionaries. Julius Martov wanted a broader, more open party. When the votes came, Lenin’s side lost one important rule but later won control of the party newspaper Iskra after some delegates walked out. Lenin’s group quickly claimed the name Bolsheviks, the majority. The other side became the Mensheviks, the minority.

At that moment they were still Social Democrats. They were not yet Communists. The name change came only in March 1918, months after they seized power in Russia. Only then did they officially become the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks).

This is the part almost no one remembers. The Bolshevik method and the Marxist ideas did not grow out of Russian soil alone. They were European ideas brought into Russia by intellectuals living in exile. The decisive split that created the Bolsheviks happened in Belgium and Britain. The ideology that later killed tens of millions started as a factional fight among a few dozen people in foreign cities.

People today treat communism as something that happened in Russia. They forget that the danger began earlier and elsewhere. It began with an idea of class war, a belief that a small, disciplined group could force history to move faster, and a willingness to call themselves the majority even when they were not. Once that group took power, they tried to spread the same model across the world.

That is why the threat never really stayed in one country. The roots were international from the start. The methods were tested in exile long before the first Soviet gun was fired. And the name Bolshevik was never about truth. It was about claiming the high ground.

If we do not know this history, we keep looking for the danger only in the past or only in one place. We miss how similar ideas can travel, change names, and grow again under softer words.

The Bolsheviks did not begin as communists. They did not even begin inside Russia. That is the part most people never learn. And that ignorance is still costly.

Expect more of this messaging as they use real or faked accounts to push back against imported beef. Worse, it's the very same emotional arguments used to keep us from dealing with the underlying issue, which is the vast tracks of misappropriated land upon which ~600,000 ranchers and dairy farmers kept us fully self-sufficient (with export surplus) cost-effectively. This isn't just happening in the US, but across the entire Western World. Quality food independence IS THE national security issue of all issues. The oldest form of known despotism is control of access to water required for agriculture - Hydraulic Despotism - the second oldest is access to the land necessary to conduct agriculture/animal husbandry.

[EM Burlingame - 蒲 奕 言 @EMBurlingame]

It's not what Trump said. What he said is fact, we lost over 600,000 small and midsized cattle farmers over the past 40 years. As they were pushed out of business by regulations. And herds were killed off under Biden, creating a shortage that has taken a pound of ground beef from under $10 a pound to $20. This can't continue, as a large portion of the population gets quality protein from ground beef.

Herds and ranchers can't be turned back on overnight. And so, we will have to import, until we can restore ranchers and herds. The real obstacle still standing in the way, is all the land that was bought up, all the old family ranches, and which now sits in Financialist portfolios at prices families can never afford to buy back. This last is where our fight must be. As @braxton_mccoy et al are working on.

I'm a country boy down beneath all else. Grew up raising stock. This all hits home with me. Not the least because m biological mother lost her land through county level machinations. The land where my younger brother is buried, or was.

PS Thermal imaging is done with a wand that images your entire body head to toe looking for heat spots which usually indicates an anomaly. As I indicated it noted exactly where my prior back surgery/injury was and where the other inflammation was on my spine of other spinal injuries. Those were known. It also indicated a sinus infection that, while mild, was unknown at the time. All you have to do is search for local medical doctors that offer it. Usually only natural doctors do bc of whatever arrangements regular drs have with radiology clinics.

When RFK took office, the FDA didn’t know what was in our food.

10,000 chemicals (we think) added to food with the explicit purpose of making it addictive. No safety information.

Over 1 million Americans will die this year from conditions preventable by not eating ultraprocessed food.

It is about time Americans finally know what they are eating.
