It was one of the most appalling moments of histrionic lying and desperation I have ever seen in a hearing. I was riveted, waiting to see if Sanders, Warren and the other pay for play Senators would stroke out.

Kennedy is clearly the most dangerous American, in the eyes of the powerful.

Incredible strength from RFK. Mind like a trap—no notes, no hesitation and with facts and stats spat out like an Uzzi. He left his well paying profession to fight a righteous battle. He is noble.

RFKjr is the right man, at the right place, at the right time. We are so lucky to have him at HHS. Things would be so much different, if Trump hadn’t won.

It would be premature now, but after the mid-terms, I would like to see a presidential fact-finding commission delve deep into health care at the national level; take a years-long in-depth look at HHS, NIH, FDA and CDC (how the hell was the CDC so deeply involved in the trans-issue?), and specifically address everything that happened during Covid, and to focus on why, in the 21st century, the health of the nation has gotten worse - the statistics that Kennedy recited are obscene, the decades-long decline was ignored; instead the focus was on spending trillions of dollar, with little to show for it. . . . Good luck Robert.

JohnAZ's avatar

Phil, mRNA is far from developed, they still do not have a “formula” that works without very significant side effects. It should never had been used as the Vaxx. The emergency that Covid provided was an opportunity for the technology to try to prove itself with zero risk. We have never heard the results of the 42000 study participants from Warpspeed, nor will we as the adverse effects of course were buried with the test results. I wonder if Trump ever saw the real data? Was his response based on what he was told by Pence et al?

Sidebar Why an mRNA shot will never be put in my body again.

Muscle injections do not stay localized in the muscle. The hurry up lines giving the shot were not using proper “blood pull back technique” to ensure the shot was not going directly into an arterioles or venue. The claim that mRNA material never left the muscle is false for many.

The claim that the Vaxx s proteins were destroyed in a few weeks was never shown, never investigated before starting the Vaxx. How long do they last, calling up false alerts to the immune system? Who knows?

Reverse transcriptase was shown to occur in liver cells with mRNA. The possibility exists that liver cells were created to provide s proteins in perpetuity. Are there stem cells in the liver, or elsewhere that the Vaxx could have affected?

What effect does long term exposure of the immune system to s proteins have on its ability to operate properly. The immune system is like an army of different soldiers co-ordinated by master cells called CD4s. What does the Vaxx do to this army? I know two people that are struggling with auto-immune disorders tied to the Vaxx. My wife and I are two that the Vaxx did nothing, we both got the disease,, twice since 2020.

Look at it logically. It does not work, people get the disease, regardless of Vaxx, and .05% die from it. By the way, that number was tabulated at the height of the pandemic, I wonder what it is now. It supposedly makes the disease less intense? Based on what? It has deadly adverse side effects that the Senator produced VAERS data showing >9000 deaths within 2 days after administration of the Vaxx. The swine flu vaccine was discarded for much less. “First do no harm” was abandoned here, IMO.

Why wasn’t a standard flu shot type vaccine not invented for Covid? Take a piece of dead virus and inject it. No RNA,no side effects involving antigens that do not go away.

One more, why hasn’t much more research been done to investigate the Vaxx and Covid itself? IMHO, it is nothing more than CYA by the government,

In MA put a 'D' next to your name and then wait your 'turn'.

There is some resistance, however the place is so corrupt it is beyond repair.

Consequences? More like musical chairs, a moving target, there are no consequences as the deck chairs are reshuffled as needed.

The legislature meets behind closed doors. Has a rule which says they can suspend the rules anytime they choose. Passes most 'legislation' on voice votes of the supermajority 'D' party.

Despite an overwhelming 72+% of the citizens voting in favor of requiring the legislature to be audited by the State Auditor (who is elected in state-wide election) they refuse to open the books to the Auditor. Note the Auditor has been auditing the Legislature since 1849.

The Attorney General refuses to enforce the results of the ballot question requiring the audit.

The governor hands out no-bid contracts regularly. Takes care of the illegal invaders with food, housing, medical care, transportation, driver's licenses (which automatically registers them to vote). Neglects the US citizens. The list goes on.

The Congressional Districts are so gerrymandered no one with an 'R' after their name has been elected to Congress in 30+ years.

Sugar is addictive. Many years ago I lost 80 pounds using the Atkins diet method. It was excellent for dropping pounds but it is not something one can maintain forever.

To this day, years later, I still have cravings for sugars. It is a powerful addiction, one that never ends.

Mr. Ron---- you are 100% correct. Our dogs ate food that we did not eat for dinner or lunch and loved it. We supplemented the table scraps with regular dog food but it was certainly not the "gourmet " food that you see constantly advertised on tv. And.....I understand that people get very attached to their animals (me included) but a lot of people do not know where to draw the line. I have kin that have done hip replacements on their dog----at great expense. We have horses and love them to death but.....they are horses. One horse got a serious inflamation in their eye and we took him to an eye doctor for horses. He helped to alleviate the pain and suffering and the doc (or time) did cure him and we asked the vet that since he was almost blind in the eye whether there was anything we could do to get his vision back. The vet said that Ohio State University (they do have something besides a football team) does have a great vet school and they may be able to do an operation to bring some or all of the vision back. I asked ----approx how much? The reply was about $10K. My reply was---thanks for the info but......I guess we will have to get used to a one eyed horse. He still navigates the trails we ride quite nicely.

I read that more people in America today have dogs than have children. Let that sink in for a minute. I went on a back packing trip just last weekend and I was stunned at the number of people hiking with dogs but.....no children. I think one couple had a sleeping child in a back pack apparatus of sorts.

We had a dog, a beagle-shepherd mix. She was a gorgeous dog and a beloved pet and she had a special soul. At about 8 years she got diabetes and went totally blind. The vet told us that we could treat the diabetes with daily insulin injects but that the eyes would have to be removed due diabetic onset glaucoma. This was a proud dog. Seeing her so depressed was heart breaking.

I took her to the vet and held her in my arms as they quietly put her down.

My point? People treat their pets as if they are their children. I even see ads on the internet that show the animal as if in human conditions. Such as, sitting at a table in a restaurant and eating food from a plate, or, sitting in a car and watching a television show depicting other animals. There appears to be some strange effort to entice people to forego having children in favor of having a dog. It isn't cute to me. It's deeply bothersome and frightening.

A dog is a dog. It will never evolve beyond that. It will never improve itself. It will never get smarter or learn new skills. It has no desire to improve itself or become better. It will always be a dog. Putting these animals on par with a human child is deeply disturbing.

Mr. Ron - I am monocular - blind in one eye myself. So, I'll give you some advice - straight from a horse's ass (me).

All things in moderation, Lugh. Money itself isn't evil, however, like you so aptly stated, the love of money is and it is essentially greed and lust for more, more, more, never being happy satisfied with one's station. That is the problem with capitalism. It isn't enough that a man is a billionaire. He needs two billion, 10 billion, 100 billion. No human being needs that kind of money. Period. People can only eat, see, read, feel and do so much at any given time. There is no reason for a billionaire. That kind of money corrupts the soul.

Like with alcohol, people cannot control themselves. It isn't enough to make enough money to retire in style, no, they must own everything and control everything and rule over everything.

Human greed knows no bounds. That is the root of all evil.

One needs no more proof that our Constitutional Republic is fallen, than the gruesome spectacle it was to see HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. take on a conclave of vicious grifters on the Senate Finance Committee, including Senator Elizabeth Warren.

Inverted Totalitarianism:

Inverted totalitarianism is a system where economic powers like corporations exert subtle but substantial power over a system that superficially seems democratic. Over time, this theory predicts a sense of powerlessness and political apathy, continuing a slide away from political egalitarianism. Sheldon Wolin coined the term in 2003 to describe what he saw as the emerging form of government of the United States. He said that the United States was turning into a managed democracy (similar to an illiberal democracy). He uses the term "inverted totalitarianism" to draw attention to the totalitarian aspects of such a system, while the term inverted helps to portray the many differences with classical totalitarianism.

Inverted totalitarianism operates through the integration of economics with political power to control the levers of government. This system doesn't require a dictator or a single-party state. It thrives on the undue influence of corporations, financial institutions, the censorship-industrial complex, and the military-industrial complex while maintaining the facade of a democratic process. Corporations and wealthy elites influence policy through lobbying, campaign finance, and the revolving doors between business and government.

What is a “Kakistocracy”?

A kakistocracy is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. The word was coined as early as the seventeenth century. Peter Bowler has noted in his book that there is no word for the government run by the best citizens, and that the “aristarchy” may be the right term, but still, it could conceivably be a kakistocracy disguised as an aristocracy.

What is a "Kleptocracy"?

Kleptocracy (from Greek "I steal", and "power, rule") is a government whose corrupt leaders (kleptocrats) use political power to expropriate the wealth of the people and land they govern, typically by embezzlement or misappropriation of government funds at the expense of the wider population. Thievocracy means literally the rule by thievery and is a term used synonymously to kleptocracy. One feature of political-based socioeconomic thievery is that there is often no public announcement explaining or apologizing for misappropriations, nor any legal charges or punishment levied against the offenders.

Kleptocracy is different from plutocracy (rule by the richest) and oligarchy (rule by a small elite). In a kleptocracy, corrupt politicians enrich themselves secretly outside the rule of law, through kickbacks, bribes, and special favors, or they simply direct state funds to themselves and their associates. Also, kleptocrats often export much of their profits to foreign nations in anticipation of losing power.

“The Dunning–Kruger Effect”

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people with limited competence in a particular domain overestimate their abilities. Some researchers also include the opposite effect for high performers: their tendency to underestimate their skills. In popular culture, the Dunning–Kruger effect is often misunderstood as a claim about general overconfidence of people with low intelligence instead of specific overconfidence of people unskilled at a particular task.

What is "Rent-Seeking"?

Rent-seeking is the act of growing one’s personal wealth without creating any new wealth, by manipulating the social or political environment. Rent-seeking activities have negative effects on the rest of society. They result in reduced economic efficiency through misallocation of resources, reduced wealth creation, lost government revenue, heightened income inequality, and potential national decline. Rent-seeking is an attempt to obtain economic rent (i.e.: The portion of income paid to a factor of production from land, labor, capital, entrepreneur, in excess of what is needed to keep it employed in its current use) by manipulating the social or political environment in which economic activities occur, rather than by creating new wealth. Rent-seeking is the pursuit of income based on government favoritism to obtain contracts, revenue, and other favors that they don’t earn from voluntary market transactions. Rent-seeking occurs whenever an industry lobbies the government for subsidies, favorable tax treatment, restrictive licensing, or regulation which protects established firms from competition. These measures provide the lobbying organizations additional income without creating added value for society. Rent-seeking shields less-productive organizations from competition and enables them to extract higher prices from the public.

The term “rent-seeking'' was first coined by 19th-century British economist David Ricardo; but only became the subject of durable interest among economists and political scientists more than a century later after the publication of two influential papers on the topic by Gordon Tullock in 1967, and Anne Krueger in 1974. The word "rent" does not refer specifically to payment on a lease but rather to Adam Smith's division of incomes into profit, wages, and rent.

To add to this comment, Crixcyon, I would say that as long as our health is a means of profit we will continue to get sicker. Humanity excels are corrupting and destroying everything it touches because of an insatiable appetite to get gain, known in the common tongue as "greed." The moment they turned our health care into a commodity we were doomed.

My sister is a type 1 diabetic. I often learn from her about new, promising medical advances that could cure type 1 diabetes. One of these was a synthetic pancreas that showed promise. Then, suddenly, the synthetic insulin producing pancreas disappeared. Gone. Like a fart in the wind. No information about it. Why? What happened?

Well, I don't know what happened but my personal theory is that the pharmaceutical giants who profit immensely on the backs of diabetic people who need insulin and blood sugar testing products to survive got to the person who was working on the synthetic pancreas and either bought the dude out or threatened the dude. Most likely the first.

I also remember hearing about a cancer treatment where nano technology was used to inject cancer cells with tiny flecks of gold. Once completed the person would enter a chamber that submersed the body in harmless radio waves. The radio waves would cause the gold flecks to vibrate, heat up, and kill the cancer cells. The body would then flush the dead cells and gold flecks out through the kidneys. It was an interesting concept. Then, it was gone. Never heard anything else about it.

My point? They profit from our sickness and poor health. How much economy is derived from treating and researching cancers, asthma, diabetes and other illnesses? If there was a cure to these ailments that was quick and easy, one can be damned sure these pharmaceutical giants will do all within their power to gobble it up, make it disappear and keep the people as sick as they possibly can.

I also think Americans' addictions to drugs like alcohol don't help our health none either. Alcohol is the scourge our society. It's bad for the body and people can't control themselves with it.

Don’t hold your breath, folks. “I’ll think about it. We’ll see” is all but a hard “no, go jump in a lake” in diplomatic terms. Just to be NICE, you understand.

They did how ever tell us a lot of wrong information for example the food pyramid is all wrong!

You are what you eat and if the food is toxic what is the result?

Toxic fruits and vegetables that people think are healthy!

Why is organic the most expensive when it is the least processed of all the foods?

Toxic dead water full of poisons and yes using petroleum-based fertilizers kills the soil and poisons the foods further!

I find it very odd that at the starting point of GMO it was the whacko liberal types all into whole foods and organic and now they are leading the charge into foods infected with bt toxins and gene edited with cockroach genes.

A nice side of hiv in your corn on the cob or now "vaccines" grown in the vegetables and fruits!!

What did that corn ever do to deserve being so badly treated!

Worse the new Monsanto seeds use a toxin that kills other plants called roundup as a form of fertilizer as well.

Roundup sticks around for a very long time and is now a confirmed carcinogen.

Now we are getting it from the air, water, food, injected into us, and the very dirt we walk upon.

Vaccine delivery system via corn:

Because the glyphosate from RoundUp can spread and contaminate otherwise organic crops there is now a 'glyphosate residue free' certification.

Roundup is brawndo. It has what plants like. It gets a bad rap just like radiation. They are agents of evolution! Watch the movie, Repo Man.

No the datacenter in Utah has depleted the ground water.

These might how ever be perfect uses for toilet to cooling instead of tap water.

When bars were allowed to stay open but prayer-singing churches had to close, the absurdity of the rules became clear

I knew it was a fraud the moment we were told it was safe to enter Walmart, Home Depot and Amazon ware houses but if you enter a church, a fitness center or a school the virus suddenly became active and was extremely dangerous. And people believed this. Pathetic.

I also knew it was a fraud when I tried on one of the cloth face diapers and noticed that when I exhaled the air, instead of the air discharging forward, the air actually discharged to the sides of the mask. I also held a mirror to the mask, exhaled and noted the water vapor that formed on the mirror. The mask doesn't filter water droplets but it filters even smaller viruses? My big ass they do.

I once belonged to a church, a prominent church in my state that has bi-annual conferences. I remember watching the conference during the covid debacle. Behind the church leader, who was masked, was a choir. All in the choir were seated 6 feet apart and all were masked. The church leader stood and stated that all of the members of the choir were previously tested negative and were all vaccinated and were appropriately separated. I laughed out loud when they all stood to sing and removed their masks. If they were negative, and if they were vaccinated then why the hell the need to be spaced and masked? Needless to say, I no longer actively participate in that religion and have nothing but disdain for its leadership.

When one calms themselves and quietly analyzes what they are being told the absurdity of it all quickly becomes apparent. But, the problem is, most people can't sit still and be quiet longer than 30 seconds in today's hyper entertained world.

I will never forget the lies perpetuated during covid. Not just by the government but by nearly everyone in leadership positions. I still suffer a little PTSD from it all. I still find it hard to believe that so many people were so easily and colossally duped by all of the bullshit.

I saw a great clip of a kid diving with his covid mask on, as if it was scuba equipment. He came up, took the mask off, took a big breath, put the mask back on and dived.

I still see morons sitting in their cars, by themselves, with masks on. I kid you not. I still see them out there. I can only imagine the terror those poor tortured souls feel every day leaving their homes. I almost feel pity for them.

For many, I think it has become a way to hide in public.

The Covid debacle also succeeded in the loss of countless small businesses and jobs deliberately destroying what was left of our economy and people's lives. Heads must roll!

That one is on Americans for willingly permitting their livelihoods to be shut down because of a nasty flu virus. In a country where people are supposedly free, Americans should have stood up and firmly told all the governments to go fuck themselves. But they didn't. The succumbed to the insanity and closed their doors. Pathetic. All of it. Every aspect of it was pathetic. We were played like an out of tune piano and we even persecuted our neighbors who were brave enough to try and resist.

Elizabeth Warren does not represent me. Unfortunately, I know people who cheer her on, but they are not the majority of Massachusetts residents I come in contact with every day. It is beyond me how someone as odious as Warren manages to stay in office year after year.

John,

Can you say "patronage"? It is everywhere thus. A major perquisite of the electoral process.

Yup, the patron varies though.

Every person that I know from Mass is a liberal. I know that's not universal, but I'm talking about dozens of people. It's pure group think.

Bravo, Mr Kunstler! Let us all realize: as we look at this whole Covid thing as a drastic failure, the global cabal considers it somewhat a success in their efforts to reduce global population and control the populace. But it woke many up and now we've engaged in battle. Sec Kennedy is at the front lines.
