WOW. Charlie Kirk saying he was much more concerned about those close to him murdering him than he was some random guy on a college campus doing it.
He ABSOLUTELY knew.
If you had trusted the settled science of the day, here is how it would have gone.
1890s: you dose the baby with Bayer's new cough syrup, the non-addictive alternative to morphine, marketed for children. It was heroin. They named it after the German for heroic.
1900s: you rub calomel teething powder on your infant's gums. It is a mercury compound, and it leaves a generation with pink disease. Swollen, peeling hands and feet, screaming for months, and some of them died.
1910s: you cook in Crisco, launched by a soap and candle company, because cottonseed oil is modern and lard is what your mother used. The process that made it solid produced trans fat, banned outright a century later.
1920s: you drink Radithor, certified radioactive water, on prescription. Eben Byers took fourteen hundred bottles for his vitality. His jaw was removed in pieces and he was buried in a lead coffin.
1930s: a chemist dissolves a new sulfa drug in diethylene glycol, which is antifreeze. It kills 107 people, mostly children, and only then does America give the FDA power to demand safety testing.
1940s: your doctor lights a Camel in the surgery. More doctors smoke them than any other brand, and the advert runs in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which sold him the page.
1950s: DDT is sprayed over your kitchen, your garden and your children at school. The man who found its insecticidal properties has already been given a Nobel Prize.
1960s: your wife takes thalidomide for morning sickness because it is remarkably safe. More than ten thousand children are born with missing and shortened limbs.
1970s: the country puts down the butter and picks up the margarine, on the instruction of the American Heart Association. The fat everybody switched to was banned in 2015 as unsafe at any level.
1980s: the fat comes out of everything and sugar goes back in to make it edible. Obesity begins a climb it has never come off.
1990s: your father is prescribed OxyContin, because fewer than one per cent get addicted. The company later pleads guilty to criminal misbranding, and the overdose count runs into hundreds of thousands.
2000s: you take Vioxx for your knee. It is pulled in 2004, and the FDA's own safety officer estimates tens of thousands of excess heart attacks.
Not one of those was fringe. Every one had a professional body, a literature and a man in a white coat standing behind it.
Nobody who followed that advice was stupid. They were obedient, to the most qualified people available.
Settled is a word about money. It means the questions stopped being funded, so they stopped being asked.
So which of today's instructions will your grandchildren read out in disbelief.
The oil washed in hexane and built into every cell you own. The statin that blocks the pathway making your hormones, to prevent one heart attack per hundred people. The injection where a third of the loss is muscle. The infant formula built out of vegetable oil.
All settled. None of it funded to be otherwise.
This is not an easy video to post.
I was let go from Turning Point USA, and while I’m grateful for the opportunities I had, I can’t ignore what I witnessed. Especially how employees are treated and the direction the organization is moving in.
I’m not here to be bitter. I’m here to be honest. This video is the beginning of me telling the truth, as much as I legally can.
I’m speaking up because I know I’m not the only one who��s felt this way and our First Amendment right matters, too.
@SpaceX@elonmusk@Starlink Hey @elonmusk my son was all set for first interview ever at @SpaceX last friday he was nervous and excited at the same time but crushed when 45 min before it was to happen they emailed him sorry already filled. He just finished school at South Dakota School of Mines
Dear Greg
(With tears rolling down my face)
We both found Scott at the same time and we were both lucky enough to have him as a friend.
I too told him I was scared to navigate this world without him.... he assured me I know how.
Its impossible to explain the impact of this one exceptional person... I cant make anyone understand... they nod along like, 'oh, so sorry' but they dont get it.
YOU GET IT
You nailed it.
Im eternally grateful to you. You once again say what Im thinking but much more eloquently.
Im so sorry for your grief.
So, your doctor ordered a test or treatment and your insurance company denied it. That is a typical cost saving method.
OK, here is what you do:
1. Call the insurance company and tell them you want to speak with the "HIPAA Compliance/Privacy Officer"
(By federal law, they have to have one)
2. Then ask them for the NAMES as well as
CREDENTIALS of every person accessing your record to make that decision of denial.
By law you have a right to that information.
3. They will almost always reverse the decision very shortly rather than admit that the committee is made of low paid HS graduates, looking at "criteria words." making the medical decision to deny your care.
Even in the rare case it is made by medical personnel, it is unlikely that it is made by a board certified doctor in that specialty and they DO NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS!!
4. Any refusal should be reported to the US Office of Civil
Rights (https://t.co/QJjJAm5BxT) as a HIPAA violation.
Be safe out there 🫵🏻✨
Know your rights 👊🏼
#ThrowbackThursday
The median home price in major California cities like San Diego and Los Angeles has risen to roughly $1 million dollars
Democrats are responding by increasing a tax fee when you sell your home from $2,000 all the way to $60,000
The county will collect $60k on every home sold
El Cajon Mayor Bill Wells “It's called a property transfer tax. And what it would do would take the transfer taxes that you have when you sell a house right now, which would be about $2,000, which I still think doesn't make any sense and it's not justified.
However, they're talking about raising that to about $60,000. So if you sold a million dollar house in California or San Diego, which is not ludicrous anymore, because that's kind of what houses cost these days, it would cost you $60,000 that you have to pay directly to the county to sell your house.
And it's really a bad thing, especially for seniors, you know, people who've bought their house when it was $25-$30,000, lived in it all their lives, and now they're transferring down to a smaller residence or even going to assisted living — they're going to have to pay an extra $60,000”
CHARLIE KIRK: “Was there a stand-down order given by Israel on Oct. 7th? Six hours to respond? I don’t believe it. They’re going to ethnically cleanse Gaza.”
In 2005, Joe Scarborough said something you would never hear on TV news today.
Speaking with RFK Jr., he legitimized the belief that vaccines CAN cause autism.
“Something happened in 1989!” Scarborough declared firmly.
In his own words, he said: “Parents would CONSTANTLY come to [him], and they’d bring [him] video tapes of their [formerly healthy] children. And they’re all about the age of [Scarborough’s] son or younger. Something happened in 1989!”
Twenty years later, it’s hard to ignore that the mainstream media never airs segments like this anymore.
Did the evidence change... or something else? 🧵
🚨 RFK JR: “These are kids that had a full potential. Many of them regressed when they were maybe 16 months to 3 years of age. That has never happened in history before, where a perfectly healthy child, suddenly becomes intellectually disabled at 2-years-old.”
Definitely Proof the Democrats have sold this Country out and they have Rewarded Big Pharma and Insurance Companies. Probably for the kickbacks they receive for Campaigns and other things!
“If you’re going to call someone’s else’s rhetoric ignorant, shouldn’t you make sure your rhetoric isn’t ignorant?”
An AOC takedown of epic proportions.
Joe Rogan: "If all these things [RFK] is saying about Fauci during the AIDS crisis, if that's not true, why is he not getting sued? I would sue the f*ck outta him if he lied about me and said that I was vaccinating foster kids with experimental drugs that were k*lling them."
Virginia Adams: Try as hard as you can and do your best possible work so that you can have the best possible benefit.
Usual Frame: Things should be fair. (Scott Adams)
Reframe: Life isn't fair. (Scott's mom)
@ScottAdamsSays "Why would she want me to play for a tie?
No, she wanted me to win. She didn't want me to play for a tie."
WAIT, WHAT?
Lara Logan just revealed that her daughter was forced to get the flu shot in Texas just to go to school to be an EMT.
“My oldest daughter is studying to be an EMT and she was mandated by the college in Texas to get the flu vaccine.”
“They said she will not be allowed at the hospitals and the emergency clinics — all the places where an EMT has to work — if she doesn’t get the flu shot.”
“She said, ‘I cannot be an EMT, I cannot finish my studies at this university if I do not do this, so I’m getting it.’”
@BusyDrT@laralogan
Doctor tells her patient an X-ray for an elbow injury costs $100 with insurance but only $32 paying cash.
So what exactly are we paying insurance companies for?
