VAERS Data Reveals 50 X More Ectopic Pregnancies Following COVID Shots than Following ALL Vaccines for Past 30 Years
The carnage of deaths to unborn babies following COVID-19 shots into pregnant women just gets worse the more we investigate it. While we reported on Saturday that the latest data dump into the government's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) showed 2,620 fetal deaths, which are more fetal deaths than are reported following ALL vaccines for the past 30 years in VAERS, one "symptom" that is tracked in VAERS that I did not account for, is an ectopic pregnancy which also results in a fetal death.

The Mother of all Conspiracies; Oswald and JFK in the 21st Century.
Imagine a counterfactual America, an alternative history wherein it has always been a well-known and accepted fact that Lee Harvey Oswald, a lone-wolf Marxist, had assassinated the President of the United States for rational Marxist reasons as well as subterranean personal ones. In this America, a school shooting by a paranoid vegan only encourages logical and evidence-based discussion of gun control and mental illness, a terror attack by Islamist hijackers is unanimously attributed to its obvious perpetrators, the Moon is American, and one cannot simply say that one has won... read more
Are Gas Prices Finally Going Down?
*Stephen Silver* *economy, Americas* President Joe Biden has asked the Federal Trade Commission to look into possible anti-consumer behavior by the oil and gas industries. The average gas price in the United States rose consistently for several months, bringing prices to their highest level in years and forming a large part of the inflation picture. But now, there are growing signs that the peak this year has already passed. After the average gas price dropped for the first time in months last week, it dropped again this week, reaching down to $3.39 per gallon, according to d... read more
Dr. Gottlieb: CDC to Likely Require Booster to Be Considered ‘Fully Vaccinated’
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Pandemic, Americas* Dr. Anthony Fauci contended says every vaccinated individual should “get boosted” depending on how long it has been since their initial shots.

"Jan. 4: Expect an Economic Train Wreck"
*"Jan. 4: Expect an Economic Train Wreck"* by Jim Rickards "Today, President Biden renominated Jerome Powell to a second term as Federal Reserve Chairman. Progressives in his party wanted Biden to nominate someone more to their liking, such as Lael Brainard, the only Democrat on the Fed's Board of Governors. But it really doesn’t matter, unless you somehow manage to resurrect Paul Volcker. And his options would be far more limited today than they were in 1981 when he raised interest rates to 20%.

The blues state confederacy
Victor Davis Hanson: ... But there is a growing red state/blue state divide—encompassing an economic, cultural, social, and political totality. The public seems to sense that the blue-state model is the more hysterically neo-Confederate, and the red state the calmer and more Union-like. The former appears more unsustainable and intolerant, the latter is increasingly more livable and welcoming. The people themselves are voting with their U-Hauls.

"The Economic Bubble Bath"
*"The Economic Bubble Bath"* by Jeff Thomas "At the end of a long, tiring day, we may choose to treat ourselves to a soothing bubble bath. Surrounded by steaming water and a froth of sweet-smelling bubbles, it’s easy to forget the cares of everyday life. This fact is equally true of economic bubbles. When the markets are up, we’re inclined to feel as though life is rosy. Unfortunately, it does seem to be the norm that investors fail to recognize when a healthy up-market transforms into a dangerous bubble. We tend to be soothed into overlooking the fact that we’re in hot water, and ... read more

“The day has been so full of fret and care, and our hearts have been so full of evil and of bitter thoughts, and the world has seemed so hard and wrong to us. Then Night, like some great loving mother, gently lays her hand upon our fevered head, and turns our little tear-stained faces up to hers, and smiles; and though she does not speak, we know what she would say, and lay our hot flushed cheek against her bosom, and the pain is gone. Sometimes, our pain is very deep and real, and we stand before her very silent, because there is no language for our pain, only a moan. Night’s hear... read more

The Hypocritical Oath
The end of medical school is a moment that, for many medical school graduates, is several years — sometimes several generations — in the making.

As previously discussed, medical school is not an apolitical environment in which “medical knowledge” is simply passed on to each student. Mechanisms are put in place to condition students to be less likely to question systems of power. Overall, the medical sch... read more
