The Director of National Intelligence has just reported that Anthony Fauci funded a bioweapons lab in China in the creation of the COVID pandemic that killed millions.
ABC has crack reporter Jonathan Karl headlining an algae story.
Don Lemon: “Do you believe that women and minority pilots are inherently less intelligent and skilled than White male pilots?”
Elon Musk: “No, I’m just saying that we should not lower standards for them.”
Move along, nothing to see here...
"The now censored article found that 2,605 infant deaths (under age one) were reported to VAERS within 60 days of vaccination: 58% of cases were reported within 24 hours of vaccination while a supermajority (over 78%) of cases were reported within a week of vaccination."

The year is 1949.
The Nobel Prize in Medicine has just gone to the man who invented the lobotomy. Your doctor suggests one for your sister, who has not been herself since the baby came. It is the most celebrated advance in psychiatry of the age, and he is simply current. By the time the prize curdles into an embarrassment, close to twenty thousand Americans have had the operation, and proportionally more here in Britain.
The year is 1956.
Lay the baby down on his front, the doctor says. So does the most trusted childcare book ever written, the one on every new mother's shelf. On his back he might choke, the reasoning goes. Millions obey. The advice holds for nearly thirty years, long after the evidence has quietly turned, and a generation of cot deaths is counted before anyone thinks to roll the babies over.
The year is 1966.
A bestselling book informs your wife that menopause is a disease, that she is, in the author's word, a castrate, and that a small daily pill will keep her youthful and tolerable to live with. Her doctor agrees. The drug becomes one of the most prescribed in the country. Nobody mentions that the author sat on the payroll of the company that made it. That detail surfaces decades later, in the same year the landmark trial is halted early for raising rates of breast cancer, stroke and clots.
The year is 1979.
Your ulcer is caused by stress and sharp food, the doctor explains. Calm down, drink milk, take the antacid that happens to be the best-selling medicine on earth. Two Australians are about to prove that most ulcers are caused by a bacterium and cured by a fortnight of antibiotics. The profession laughs. One of them eventually drinks a beaker of the stuff to settle the matter. The establishment takes the better part of twenty years to stop laughing. The Nobel lands in 2005.
The year is 1985.
Butter is dangerous, the doctor says. Switch to margarine, it is modern, it is heart-healthy, the experts are united. The spread he nudges you toward is loaded with trans fats, which the next decade will identify as the genuinely dangerous one, and which will eventually be banned outright. The butter goes quietly back in the fridge. No correction is ever printed at the volume of the original warning.
The year is 1992.
There is a pyramid on the surgery wall, and the very same one in your grandchild's classroom. Bread, cereal, rice and pasta form the broad virtuous base, up to eleven servings a day. Fat is exiled to the tiny tip. The chart was reportedly held back a year while the relevant industries had their say. It is wrong at the bottom and wrong at the top.
Now it is today.
Your doctor has new guidelines, new studies, a fresh consensus, delivered with precisely the steady confidence of every guideline above. He believes it, and he has good reason to. So did every doctor in this thread. None of them were villains. Each was sincere, most were kind, and all were certain, reading from a map that somebody else had drawn and handed them. That is the part worth sitting with.
So when the man in the white coat tells you what to eat, what to fear, and what to swallow every morning for the rest of your life, you are allowed to ask. Who paid for the study. What the evidence says beneath the headline. What he was just as certain about thirty years ago, and where that advice sits now.
Then make up your own mind. Call it scepticism, or call it whatever your grandmother called it when she ignored the advert, kept the butter where it was, and lived to ninety-one.
It has outlasted every consensus on this list. It will outlast this one too.
Sheryl. Your article exemplifies the biased reporting we have come to expect from you and @nytimes. It was unfair, inimical, and inaccurate. All one needs to refute your argument is to glance at my publicly available calendar and to review my unprecedented list of accomplishments on a wide range of issues, all of which I drove. You evidently never undertook these foundational due diligences. Why let facts obscure a good story?
You fault me for missing a couple of monthly counselor meetings. However, I meet one-on-one with my counselors every day to decide policy and strategy. We schedule the monthly meetings to give the divisions a chance to keep each other informed about HHS-wide policies with which I’m already intimately familiar. Had you read my calendar, you would have seen that I have back-to-back meetings all day, every day, with both career and political staff, with my counselors and with outside stakeholders, interspersed with press conferences and other policy announcements.
I am knowledgeable and active on every issue in every division of my department, and I always make the final decisions. I meet with the principals at FDA, NIH, CDC, and my senior counselor every morning, something, I’m told, is unprecedented in HHS history. I try to get out of the office between 4:30 and 6:00 PM, so that I can spend three hours, in quiet, responding to emails. I normally work until 11 PM every night, mostly on phone calls to staff.
In order to prove your preconceived case for my disengagement, you quote anonymous employees, some of whom I fired or who quit to avoid being fired. You also deceptively quote HHS employees without identifying whether they were among those I fired, thereby depriving your readers of the opportunity to make an independent judgment about their credibility.
I came into this job to change the culture of a broken agency that has presided over the worst decline in public health in American history. Of course I fired people—lots of them! It's an easy task for even the laziest journalist, to comb that flotsam and jetsam for malevolence toward the Trump administration. And of course, this species of journalist will always be able to find disgruntled individuals among the 70,000 employees of the Department from whom to cherry pick "facts" to flesh out a preordained hit piece. All that is required for this brand of journalism is the ethical elasticity that you seem to have in spades. You had a preconceived thesis, and you set out to prove it. This is a widely accepted technique in journalism today, but I grew up in an era when it would not have been tolerated by the New York Times.
Ultimately, God puts us all on this earth to search for existential truths. I've tried to instill this mission at HHS by implementing gold standard research to end the regime of politicized science that COVID exposed to the American public. There was a time that journalists were proud to be the fearless and uncompromising champions of truth. Standards have devolved, and journalism is dead. The Times now employs propagandists. Your capitulation to partisanship further compounds your journalistic challenges; since we all are aware of your predictable bias, we at HHS are unwilling to talk to you about the topics that are important. The fact that you have minimal access to decision makers leaves you covering trivia and relying on your own capacity for invention.
Btw. When I took this job, the building was empty. About 90% of the employees were not coming to work. I changed that, but your newspaper never covers my reforms. Nor did you cover the fact that my predecessor almost never showed up for work here during his four years in office. When we came in, there were still artifacts from the first Trump administration in many of our office drawers because no one showed up for work during the Biden years. Just as Rochelle Walensky spent her entire term as CDC Director in Cambridge, Xavier Becerra reportedly spent most of his term as HHS Secretary in California. (I live in California, but I’ve only been there once in fifteen months).
His only notable accomplishments here were losing 300,000 children, referred to HHS for custody and care, to human traffickers and drug runners, encouraging transgender surgeries, and disabling the entire program-integrity apparatus, allowing hundreds of billions of dollars of theft from my agency. I have set out to find the children Becerra lost. He is now the front-runner for the governor of California. These are not invented stories; they are genuine scandals that the Times will never cover, presumably, because the malefactors are Democrats.
Finally, you criticize me for spending time with the Indian tribes in Alaska. I consider that part of my job. I run the Indian Health Services, and I’ve had unprecedented success in transforming IHS from a backwater to a top priority for this department. I’ve made more trips to Indian country and to Indian health clinics and hospitals than any HHS secretary in history, and I’ve brought Indians into high positions on the sixth floor for the first time in agency history. This is another success story that the Times will never cover.
I drove for @hellofresh as a contractor. Thousands upon thousands of deliveries out of one of their warehouses.
The audits were run by an upper-management 'boss babe' who walked the floor pushing crystal therapies and demanding pronoun discipline. The employees mumbled the magic words and went home with pitiful paychecks. They could not argue with the woman who decided if they kept the job. That was the culture two years before the ad. The ad is what happens when that culture stops hiding.
HelloFresh does not even keep its own drivers. They ran on temp agencies. When they tried contractors like me, we cost more than the temps, so they cut their own people loose and went back to the cheapest body they could find. The company that will not pay its drivers fairly will pay a marketing team six figures to write this:
"For those of you who are… prepping… we have an extensive lineup of high-fiber recipes available. Happy Pride."
When a commenter floated the code BOTTOMSUP, the company replied with a real discount. "You ask, we deliver. Literally."
A meal-kit company has told you which one of your holes they want you to load their product into and out of. They capitalize on the gays as colons with credit cards. They think suburban moms are too dim to read between the lines. They think you will laugh and let the autopay roll.
This is the same company the Department of Labor caught using migrant children in its facilities in 2024. They blamed a staffing contractor. They always blame the staffing contractor. The company that cannot tell you who packed its food is the one marketing their products to customer rectums.
@factormeals is HelloFresh. @EveryPlate_ is HelloFresh. @greenchef is HelloFresh.
Same warehouse, same conveyor, same audit lady. Canceling Factor and switching to EveryPlate is moving rooms inside the same burning house.
Cancel all of them. Tell them exactly why in the cancellation field. Buy a chicken from a butcher. Plant a tomato in your own garden.
Burn the box. Bury the brand. Build something better.
We will be a proper country again when these filth-mongers are on trial.
Putting up a few pounds of broccoli from the garden today. Cut, soak, steam blanch, ice bath, shake off the water, flash freeze, bag, and put in the freezer with the last batch of meat chickens, last year’s peaches, and strategic raw milk reserves).
🚨 WOW! Senate candidate James Talarico (D) has just been CAUGHT acting like a total robot, repeating the same line verbatim to manipulate Texans
"They whisper 'I'm not a Democrat' to me like they're in the witness protection program!"
The dude is not only a weirdo but also a TOTAL FRAUD, making crap up, his entire campaign is scripted!
@KenPaxtonTX needs to destroy him this november.
h/t @MLChristiansen for finding this
The MAHA movement doesn't stop with what we EAT — It's also about what we WEAR.
For decades, America offshored textile jobs and allowed foreign synthetic, plastic-based materials to take over the clothing market.
Together with @SecKennedy, the Great American Cotton Plan puts American-grown cotton FIRST again: supporting our farmers, strengthening U.S. manufacturing, and giving families a natural choice.
🚨 WOW! CMS Chief Dr. Oz just personally showed up to a Somali FRAUD HOTBED in Ohio, home to the second-largest Somali population behind Minneapolis
7 buildings concentrated in one area have 288 "HOME HEALTH" Medicaid companies 🤯
That's 41 companies per building, some of which are nearly VACANT
Franklin County is 3 TIMES above what it should be in "home health" billing
"We also identified 288 Medicaid registered home health aid companies operating out of just seven office buildings along one nearby road."
"Some of these buildings are nearly vacant. Home health care and personal care services have become the subject of nearly all of the recent fraud prosecutions in Ohio."
"If we do this the right way, people will stop using Medicaid as a piggy bank. Vice President Vance, who's from Ohio, wants the White House Anti-Fraud Task Force coming after fraudsters everywhere with everything we have."
When I first saw the hantavirus story I thought: given it's a single stranded RNA virus, Ivermectin is very likely to work--because IVM is effective with RNA viruses generally. Look what happened when I pursued it with Claude.
It clammed up, for "safety" reasons.
Buckle up!
Leaked audio shows Fauci talking about having every corporation require vaccinations and making it as hard as possible on the public so they’re forced to be take the jab.
Fauci said if you make it hard enough, people will abandon their beliefs.
