QUESTION, NOT JUDGEMENT: IS IT REALLY A TRUE VACCINE?

If you want to take it, that’s your business. But I’m just saying, this COVID-19 shot is likely not the vaccine you thought it was going to be.

A vaccine provides immunity. In other words when a vaccine is administered to you for X, Y, or Z, you are guaranteed to never get X, Y, or Z.  Think polio vaccination.

Apparently with the current injections being given for COVID-19, you can still catch the virus, still pass the virus to others, and still die from the virus. Your chances may be lessened, but it’s all true.

One of my sports heroes, baseball great Hank Aaron, died from COVID-19 twenty days after receiving the shot. Unlike others, I’m not saying the shot killed him. I am simply stating that Hammering Hank caught the COVID and died after getting the injection!  The medical excuse is that the vaccination doesn’t fully kick in for up to 14 days, so Aaron must have caught the virus during that time.

We’ll never know.

But Hank was not alone. According to a March 8, 2021 Newsweek article, 996 people have died after getting “the vax.”

Again, medical public relations persons claim these death likely occurred because of the 14 days required for the shot to take effect.

Again, I’m not blaming the vaccine for these deaths.  I’m just asking out loud, WHERE’S THE IMMUNITY? I’m also asking, was this originally (as recently as December through February in many well-known medical journals) called an “experimental vaccine?”

A well known researcher with the University of Alabama, Paul Goepfert, M.D., a professor with the UAB Division of Infectious Diseases, says the bottom line is that the vaccine most likely does not prevent spread of the virus, but probably does reduce the length of time a person sheds virus.

Additionally, a February 19, 2021 story in Nature said,

It’s possible that vaccines won’t stop or significantly lessen the chances of infection. But jabs might make infected people less able to pass the virus on, or make them less infectious, and so reduce transmission.

“The vaccine is very effective in preventing symptomatic disease,” said Dr. Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in Maryland. “But is it effective at preventing asymptomatic disease? There’s an open question about how much the vaccine is going to decrease transmission. It will take time to do those studies,” he told Healthline.

Here’s a 101 on what the Centers for Disease Control says about vaccines:

Immunity: Protection from an infectious disease. If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.

Vaccine: A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease. Vaccines are usually administered through needle injections, but can also be administered by mouth or sprayed into the nose.

Vaccination: The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.

Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.

I also know that some doctors are recommending that certain patients taking certain medications do not get the shot because their meds have not been properly tested against the COVID vaccination.

So, you tell me: is this jab so many seem excited to take really a vaccine like other vital vaccinations  we have seen over the many decades?

Meantime, haters calm down. I’m just asking  questions–not casting judgements.

Hidden Headlines Episode 61 – COVID-19: A Test of the Totalitarian Implementation System

A President of the United States once said: “You and I are told increasingly we have to choose between a left or right. Well, I’d like to suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There’s only the ultimate in individual freedom, consistent with law and order, or the ant heap of totalitarianism. And, regardless of their sincerity or their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course.”

That brilliant statement was made by Ronald Reagan.

And during this time in American history, marked  by COVID 19 and the coronavirus, Reagan’s words certainly ring true today.

Progressive politicians and leaders relish the opportunity to use a crisis to further their ultimate goal of total domination. In this edition of Hidden Headlines I note their many unscientific efforts to supposedly curtail the spread of COVID-19 and the coronavirus, when in fact they are actually conducting a test.
A test of the Totalitarian Implementation System.

COVID-19 must not cause us to choose government-mandated security over our freedom to make wise decisions.

Are we trading our freedom for supposed government oversight of our lives? If so, we are edging closer to totalitarianism? Is President Trump correct that we must open this country and restore the freedoms of the American people?

What is the Left’s end-game with this virus?

So many questions…

Mandatory Unemployment vs Personal Responsibility During COVID Scamdemic

Welcome to the new normal. Welcome to the new America. It’s not what our Founders intended. Not even close.

The liberal establishment must be so proud.

We now have a country in which honest, hard working American’s are no longer allowed to work.  Some cut hair, some are carpenters, some own gyms.  They’ve been shut down because of a version of the flu.

Yes, it can be a nasty influenza, especially if one is obese, out of shape, has a poor diet, has a compromised immune system, or is elderly. But those are the types of conditions that often lend themselves to mortality usually during a bad strain of the flu.

What ever happened to personal responsibility? If I trust my barber or hair stylist and the barber or hair stylist trusts me, why can’t I get a hair cut? If I want to gut the bathroom and build a new one, why can’t I make that decision for myself?  How about the gym (my wife and I have owned several)? Why can’t gym owners and their patrons decide what they want to do?

And now, proving how upside down all of this is, we have idiocy ensuing in San Francisco after the city decided to give alcohol, marijuana, and methadone to homeless addicts in hotels during the coronavirus pandemic.

San Francisco’s department of public health confirmed the report on Twitter this week.

“These harm reduction based practices, which are not unique to San Francisco, and are not paid for with taxpayer money, help guests successfully complete isolation and quarantine and have significant individual and public health benefits in the COVID-19 pandemic.”

It’s the coronavirus this time, but what will the next step in this government domination exercise look like?

China’s COVID Cover Up and Propaganda War

When the news of a coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, China first appeared in Western media outlets in January, China’s state-run news operation went into full propaganda mode, striking a phony tone of reassurance and transparency to the West with hashtags like #wuhancoronavirus and #wuhanpneumonia.

Then in February, the Chinese made a big shift away from that tone.

According to a new report by cybersecurity firm Recorded Future, there were two distinct shifts. The first ignored details of the disease’s spread and origins in favor of social media posts that praised the response of the communist government and President Xi Jinping. Then, later in February, stories and posts began aggressively accusing the West of racism and xenophobia, and even doubted the origins of the virus.

The shift in message can be seen via Tweets, provided by Recorded Future. The first is from early January and the second from Feb. 29.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Both tweets are from a communist China propaganda account called, Global Times.  It has 1.7 million followers. According to Recorded Future, Global Times and other such China-controlled propaganda outfits have posted tens of thousands of coronavirus-related items on services Twitter and Instagram.

Recorded Future’s story aligns with a similar report published by news site Pro Publica. It describes a massive Twitter disinformation operation run by the Chinese government.

As for the earlier Chinese media messages describing the coronavirus spread in Wuhan, Recorded Future said “censors and propagandists had not yet communicated coordinated guidelines for foreign messaging by state-run media.”

Many of the Chinese propaganda outlets continue to publish on Twitter, despite putting forth false information. A Twitter spokesperson told Fortune that they are aware of such accounts and, in some cases, are taking action against them (amazing these bastards at Twitter have shadow-banned a small time guy like me for the past decade, and yet they allow this dangerous commie propaganda continue, all in the name of free speech*).

“Using technology and human review in concert, we proactively monitor Twitter to identify attempts at platform manipulation and mitigate them,” said a Twitter spokesperson. “If we identify further information campaigns on our service that we can reliably attribute to state-backed activity either domestic or foreign-led, we will disclose them.”

All of this comes as the Chinese Communist Party attempts to portray its handling of the Wuhan situation as a marvelous success, and a wonderful model for the world to follow. Meanwhile, Bloomberg reports shared photos of thousands of funeral urns in Wuhan, suggesting the death toll is much higher than the official 2,535 number the government has put forth.  Also, the International Business Times  reported a soaring number of phone cancellations (in the millions) as evidence that the death toll in China owing to the coronavirus has been understated.

Thanks for reading and God Bless you all.  Please don’t forget to pray for the millions of Christians under horrid persecution in China.

*By the way, because of my being shadow-banned I now only use Twitter to share encouraging Bible verses with my very modest number of followers (a number which hasn’t changed much since I began using the platform in 2009, despite the fact that I hosted an enormously popular San Francisco radio show and filled-in nationally for Michael Savage).

COVID-19 Special: Government Power, Wasteful Spending, and China’s Faults

Please note: an expanded audio version of this article is available in my Hidden Headlines Podcast, Episode 55 (available on this website, or Soundcloud, iTunes, Google Play, etc). 

I’m coming out of my media hibernation because I feel some critical elements of the current health crisis are not being properly brought into the light by the majority of media reporters and commentators.

As for my personal health, I’m slowly but surely doing better and the long-term prognosis is really uplifting. I really appreciate your thousands of prayers and words of encouragement.

First off, I know the coronavirus is real—my 24-year-old son in Switzerland had it.  Talking to him via WhatsApp during the course of his illness made it apparent this virus was akin to a very rough version of the flu which lasted for the better part of a month. That said, from a purely mathematical standpoint this epidemic is not statistically significant. No one in the mainstream media has addressed this fact, but percentagewise the virus thankfully kills very few people–although it must be emphasized that those who do lose their life experience terrible respiratory distress. That’s why my wife and I are doing our very best to protect her 95-year-old parents from getting this terrible illness.

It should also be noted that forecasters at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (at the University of Washington’s School of Medicine) examined the latest COVID-19 data at a local, national and international level. While at this writing the U.S. death toll for the pandemic is now past 1,000, with 68,000 confirmed infections (not including many thousands more who had the virus but were never seen by medical professionals), we may be on a path to more than 80,000 deaths in the U.S. alone.  The concern is that severely infected patients will overwhelm hospital capacity nationally as soon as early April even if so called “social distancing” measures are respected. That stated, our government’s plan to deal with this virus is to close most businesses and urge otherwise healthy people to shelter in place.  This has never been done before. In the past shelter in place orders were given to protect the population from natural disasters such as storms and floods, terrorist attacks and mass shootings. We have also experienced quarantines, where the sick are mandatorily kept from the general population. However, never in history has the confinement of a healthy population been used to fight a disease. While some may argue the current shelter in place is currently a wise move, let us not be so naïve to think that in the future such a command could be used by power hungry politicians to better control the masses, as I explain in the podcast.

What’s particularly troubling about this virus is the lack of a cure.  What’s also troubling is the fact that there are a multitude of players, both nationally and internationally, who are gaming this sickness to their advantage—as I also explain in the podcast.

All said, give this another couple weeks and it’s easy to predict that those who have blown through their free government money and are without funds to buy food, booze, pot, gas, dog food or whatever, are going to start to get way more than stir crazy. Perhaps that’s when the shelter in place will voluntarily include business owners boarding up shop, residents doing the same to their homes, as well as making sure security systems (including those of the Second Amendment variety) are up to speed.

CHINA VIRUS

Secondly, I was not offended by President Trump referring to this illness as the “China Virus.” All indications are that COVID-19 originated in an open air “wet market” in Wuhan, China.  Many experts are convinced the virus was transferred from a bat (considered by the Chinese to be a delicacy that supposedly improves poor vision) to a human. Such a viral transfer from animal to human is not unprecedented in China. By the way, go online and look at these markets for yourself—they are beyond grotesque. Exotic animals, birds, dogs, cats, monkeys, bats, and livestock are slaughtered with filthy cleavers for takeout. When God presented Moses with the kosher dietary laws penned in the book of Leviticus, he did so for a reason. The stuff sold as consumable food in these markets is not to be eaten by humans for a reason. We can become sick and die.

What isn’t being reported is that in November, as COVID-19 was spreading in Wuhan, China, the communist party’s primary concern was ensuring that the local People’s Congress gathering in Wuhan in January would take place as planned ahead of the National People’s Congress assembly in early March. In order to keep their political schedule intact, the communist party downplayed the seriousness of the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan. This resulted in a steady spread of infections.  Next came the Chinese New Year in late January.  Nearly half of Wuhan’s population (nearly five million people) left the city for their various holiday plans without objection. The virus was thus carried to other parts of the Chinese mainland and around the world, leading to today’s pandemic.

REPUBLICANS GET PLAYED

Third, in a supposed political effort to fight the coronavirus, the Republicans in our Congress were suckered into a TWO TRILLION DOLLAR emergency aid package with outlandish Not one senator even had time to read the final language of the bill they voted for.

$2 Trillion is ten-percent of the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP). Unreal.

While President Trump is publicly cheering the Senators for their unanimous support of the coronavirus funding, what he’s actually thrilled for is the fact that this congressional unanimity is another step in assuring his victory in November. By the way, while the two trillion does add to the national debt, prior to this aid package the debt total under the Trump administration had risen only 10-percent. During the eight years of Obama it rose 100-percent.

I provide all the details in my podcast, but let me show you a little of what is in this Two Trillion Dollar crap sandwich:

 

  • Nancy Pelosi’s version includes a section entitled, “Improving Corporate Governance Through Diversity.” The legislation stipulates: “Any corporation that receives federal aid related to COVID-19 must maintain officials and budget dedication to diversity and inclusion for no less than five years after disbursement of funds.”
  • $25 million in the Senate bill went to the John F. Kennedy Center For The Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. During the past ten years, the center received $68.3 million in federal grants (2010-2019). The Kennedy Center has total assets of $557 million. The Pelosi bill earmarked $35 million.
  • $75 million in the Senate bill funded the Corporation For Public Broadcasting. Why does National Public Radio and Big Bird get a coronavirus subsidy? The Pelosi bill allocated $300 million.
  • $1.2 billion in the Pelosi bill to require airlines to purchase expensive “renewable” jet fuel. It was $200 million per year in grants (2021-2026) to “develop, transport, and store sustainable aviation fuels that would reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.” The Senate bill eliminated this provision.
  • The Senate bill allows the Food and Drug Administration to speed up the review of sunscreen products (sunburn is not tied to the coronavirus, but can occur if you drink too many Corona’s on the beach).

Rahm Emanuel, the former Clinton Administrative counselor once said, “Never let a serious crisis go to waste.”  Nancy Pelosi has simply employed an age old liberal tactic. Shame on her.

Thanks for allowing me to pop-off. I hope you’ll check out the podcast.

May you allow the God of Heaven to richly bless you,  no matter what the circumstances.
