Suspicions Grow That Nanoparticles in Pfizer's Covid Vaccine (Injectible RNA Therapy) May Trigger Deadly Anaphylactic Reactions
Penny, Penny for your thoughts - 6 hours ago
*Yup, suspicions grow.... You really should read the entire article from Science* *Severe allergy-like reactions in at least eight people who received the COVID-19 vaccine produced by Pfizer and BioNTech over the past 2 weeks may be due to a compound in the packaging of the messenger RNA (mRNA) that forms the vaccine’s main ingredient, scientists say. A similar mRNA vaccine developed by Moderna, which was authorized for emergency use in the United States on Friday, also contains the compound, polyethylene glycol (PEG). * *PEG has never been used before in an approved (correction, ...

World’s Second Largest Hydroxychloroquine Plant in Taiwan Blows Up
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 6 hours ago
One of the biggest scandals of the COVID Plandemic is the needless deaths of hundreds of thousands of people who died needlessly because the FDA refused to issue off-label emergency use for hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), a safe drug whose patent ran out years ago, and that thousands of doctors around the world have used effectively, often with a 100% success rate, in treating COVID patients.

What the COVID-19 Relief Package Tells us about Congress
David Super, Balkinization - 5 hours ago
As the 116thCongress staggered toward the oblivion it so richly deserves, it offered up a gigantic year-end legislative package that funds the government for the remaining nine-plus months of the fiscal year, provides some relief to those hardest-hit by the pandemic and recession, and attends to a host of other bits of business, large and small.

Now he has been flexing his muscles again, thanks to the great ones dedicated to the removal of the majority of us from this earthly realm.That being said, here is a short piece by MG on this new variation.

The Strategic Dilemma of Taiwan’s Democracy

*Paul Heer, John Culver* *Security, Asia* Taiwan’s democratization arguably created a paradoxical dilemma for U.S. policy: Washington fully supports democracy on the island but cannot support Taiwan’s independence—unless it is prepared to risk its relationship with Beijing. Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen told an American think tank audience via a Dec. 9 video chat that the people of Taiwan are “determined to safeguard our freedoms and way of life. We have made it a priority to strengthen our most valuable asset: that is, democracy.” This message resonates with the audience beca...
