A former Pfizer scientist, Philip Dormitzer, reportedly claimed senior officials intentionally slowed clinical trials to avoid impacting the election outcome. Rep. Jim Jordan, committee chair, demanded documents and communications from Pfizer and CEO Albert Bourla, covering interactions with federal agencies like the FDA and CDC from March 2020 onward.

O lovitură puternică pentru reputația șefei Comisiei Europene, Ursula von der Leyen. Este părerea aproape unanimă a comentatorilor după ce aceasta a pierdut prima fază a procesului la Curtea de justiție a UE. Urmare a unei plângeri a ziarului The New York Times, judecătorii au stabilit că Executivul de la Bruxelles a greșit blocând accesul la schimbul de mesaje dintre Ursula von der Leyen și șeful Pfizer, Albert Bourla. Euractiv consideră că decizia, probabil, va atrage o reacție politică semnificativă și întărește îngrijorările tot mai mari cu privire la stilul de conducere extrem de centralizat al lui von der Leyen.Un purtător de cuvânt al The New York Times a declarat că decizia „este o victorie pentru transparență și responsabilitate în Uniunea Europeană”.Politico estede părere că ”verdictulva afecta considerabil reputația lui von der Leyen. Ea nu numai că a semnat personal cel mai mare contract de vaccinare al blocului comunitar, dar prezidează și instituția însărcinată cu aplicarea legislației UE. Iar aici se includ și principiile transparenței și responsabilității. Hotărârea instanței împotriva ei oferă muniție politică unei game largi de critici.De asemenea, este o mare rușine, având în vedere că au trecut doar câteva luni de când s-a angajat public să apere standardele de transparență, eficiență și probitate în al doilea mandat”.Ziarul grec Protothema, observă ”Hotărârea Tribunalului General nu va fi doar despre o figură politică. Observatorii spun că va fi o piatră de hotar pentru transparența instituțională în UE și va determina dacă înalții funcționari ai Uniunii sunt supuși acelorași reguli de responsabilitate ca toți ceilalți”.Citeste siPfizer/von der Leyen: o decizie judecătorească care ar putea fi ignoratăLe Monde amintește că ”UE a acționat rapid după izbucnirea pandemiei de Covid-19 în 2020, urmărind să asigure vaccinuri pe care țările membre să le poată cumpăra pentru cetățenii și rezidenții lor. Aceasta, într-o perioadă de cerere masivă la nivel mondial pentru aceste vaccinuri. Cu toate acestea, multe aspecte ale achizițiilor de la Pfizer au fost păstrate confidențiale, ceea ce a dus la acuzații de lipsă de transparență - și la mai multe procese în Belgia și la instanțele UE”.Dar, după cum constată, Euronews, Comisia Europeană nu este prima instituție care a declarat că nu poate oferi mesaje text atunci când a fost solicitată de jurnaliști sau legislatori.Postul de televiziune oferă și alte exemple în care dovezile pur și simplu au dispărut.Fostul prim-ministru olandez Mark Rutte, care a condus guvernele Olandei în perioada 2010-2024, a șters timp de ani de zile mesajele text de pe telefonul său, un vechi Nokia 301.Fostul prim-ministru scoțian Nicola Sturgeon, împreună cu alți miniștri de rang înalt și oficiali din domeniul sănătății, au șters toate mesajele lor de pe WhatsApp legate de pandemia de Covid-19. Faptul a ieșit la iveală anul trecut în timpul unei anchete naționale privind Covid.În 2020, presa germană a relatat că ministrul Transporturilor de atunci, Andreas Scheuer, a folosit adrese de e-mail și numere de telefon private în negocierile privind controversatele reguli legate de taxarea rutieră din țară.
PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, May 15: We look at a crucial court ruling in EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's "Pfizergate" scandal. But first, Hungary's government examines a bill that would allow it to shut down media or NGOs considered a threat to national security. Plus, Australian researchers find that Barbie's feet have become flatter over time and it's linked to her growing independence! The Hungarian government is considering an extremely repressive law. There seems to be little interest in the main Hungarian newspapers – except in Telex, one of the last independent news sites in the country. And for good reason: the government is mulling a law that would allow it to monitor, penalise and possibly shut down all independent media and NGOs deemed a threat to national sovereignty. In other words, as Telex notes wryly, the Fidesz party's new bill is similar to the one that has served Russian President Vladimir Putin well in building a dictatorship. Radio Free Europe notes that this bill follows a series of similar repressive moves in the country. In March, Prime Minister Viktor Orban cracked down on journalists and politicians who receive foreign funding. Last month, a constitutional amendment banned public displays of homosexuality and gender diversity, while allowing police to use facial recognition technology. The timing of this bill is particularly interesting. As the Guardian notes, Orban's bill is a move to crack down on dissent ahead of elections in Hungary next year. It comes amid the rising popularity of the Tisza party, headed by Orban's former ally Peter Magyar, who could pose an unprecedented challenge.Staying in Europe, a tribunal has handed down a verdict against European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in the Pfizergate scandal. French paper Libération takes us through the scandal, which came to light in 2021 after The New York Times published an article about the negotiations of the biggest ever EU vaccine contract with Pfizer. During the first few months of 2021, von der Leyen exchanged several SMS with Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, in the negotiation of a multi-billion-euro contract for Covid vaccines. For its article about the negotiations, The New York Times made an official request for the SMS, but the EU Commission denied the request. It offered various unclear explanations, saying the messages had the disappearing message function or were deleted. The EU's general court ruled yesterday that von der Leyen failed in her obligation to be transparent. As Politico notes, it raises very interesting issues about the legitimacy of SMS and WhatsApp messages as official documents. The judge's "bombshell ruling", as Politico puts it, indicates that the Commission was wrong to deny access to the messages. The Commission says the messages were too boring to count as documents. The judgment suggests that text messages should be considered official documents, but it's not at all binding. Public access to officials' SMS will mostly likely continue to not be granted freely.Finally, we discover a fascinating study led by Australian researchers about Barbie's feet! According to The Conversation, Australian podiatrists were particularly interested in Barbie's feet after a memorable scene from the 2023 film. They decided to study the shape of her feet from 1959 to 2024 – that's 2,750 Barbies in total. What they found is fascinating: basically Barbie's high-heeled feet became flatter over the decades, something that appears to mirror broader societal changes. Barbie ditched her high-heeled posture the more she climbed the career ladder. In the 1960s, you only had tip-toed Barbies. By the 2020s, only about 40 percent wore heels. As Barbie became more diverse and inclusive, but also more athletic and representative in male-dominated fields, her feet flattened. It suggests a correlation between flat-footed Barbie and her emancipation from societal constraints!You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

Europe Editor Tony Connelly reports on the European Court of Justice ruling on Ursula von der Leyen's witholding of text messages with Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla.
Former EU Ombudsman, Emily O'Reilly reports on the European Court of Justice ruling on Ursula von der Leyen's witholding of text messages with Pfizer chief executive, Albert Bourla.
Comisia Europeană a greșit când a refuzat să facă publice mesajele text schimbate între Ursula von der Leyen și Albert Bourla, directorul executiv al Pfizer, în plină pandemie de Covid, înainte de semnarea unui contract uriaș pentru achiziția de vaccinuri. Tribunalul Uniunii Europene trebuia sa transeze dacă mesajele text ar trebui să fie clasificate drept documente și, prin urmare, eligibile pentru a fi publicate, în numele transparenței. Încă o dezbatere electorală la care George Simion nu participăGeorge Simion nu participa nici la podcastul influencerului Micutzu, a dat curs invitatiei din aceaata dupa amiaza doar Nicusor Dan.

Despre actiunile intreprinse de cel care avea sa devina liderul AUR discutam in aceasta seara, Simion fiind acuzat că a manipulat proteste, ca a colaborat cu oameni din anturajul oligarhului Vlad Plahotniuc și ca a fost folosit ca un factor de destabilizare.
Policy issues—particularly tariffs—loom large as Q1 2025 earnings season rolls on, with Pfizer , Novartis, AstraZeneca and many more all reporting this week. On Pfizer's call, CEO Albert Bourla called the Trump administration's national security concerns “legitimate,” but objected to the proposed tariffs in general. Meanwhile, Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan brushed off the tariff risk but expressed concern over President Donald Trump's desire to bring back the ‘Most Favored Nations' rule. Meanwhile, cancer conference season is in full swing, with the American Association for Cancer Research's annual event continuing in Chicago. Merck, GSK, Boehringer Ingelheim, Roche and others have presented highly anticipated data from some of their cornerstone cancer drugs and other candidates. Turning to the latest news out of the FDA, newly minted Commissioner Marty Makary gave his first two big press interviews last week, making statements that both jibed with and contradicted recent reporting. And in the midst of the ongoing Novavax vaccine saga, many have raised concerns that the FDA could become politicized under the watch of HHS Secretary RFK Jr. Finally, check out this week's BioPharm Executive stories, including a deep dive into the trend toward mining innovative therapies from China and BioSpace's annual report on pharma CEO-to-employee pay ratios.
Steve and the crew discuss the re-emergence of Pfizer's notorious horse doctor, Albert Bourla, and whether it's a big deal that he was asked about vaccine liability protections. Then, the team breaks down Russian President Vladimir Putin's statement saying he may be ready for a lasting peace after his conflict with Ukraine. In Hour Two, the team continues the study through Romans 8 for Theology Thursday. Finally, Dr. Peter McCullough joins the show to share the latest on bird flu, measles, and public health.

While many people are cheering and it's understandable at surface level, the reality is far deeper and darker than meets the eye. The agenda is being pushed forward via complacency due to major limited hangout psyops. RFK Jr. who has recently met with Albert Bourla of Pfizer and Bill Gates has backed off many of his previous points regarding vaccines and big pharma. It's clear that the Israel First government under Trump is not going to wipe out one of Israel's biggest cash cows. Pharma. Big Pharma doesn't seem worried and the people they lobbied voted in favor of RFK Jr. Are we just going to ignore this? It's likely we will see major pharma corporations collapse and be consolidated inside an even larger monopoly of only a couple companies by the end of Trump's 4 years. If RFK Jr. was actually bringing down pharma, he'd be dead and he never would have made it past the confirmation hearings. The ultimate goal is to make the state the total monopoly on medicine, banking, food and more. That's the technocratic dream that Elon Musk is pushing forward with AI dependence, Guaranteed Basic Income, Digital IDs and carbon taxes. Meanwhile, Tulsi Gabbard becoming the new Director of National Intelligence is laughable. She's a nice woman and like RFK, we agree with much of what she says, but she's a CFR member who wants guns taken away and supports abortion. She is also up against the largest most nefarious human entity worldwide, the intelligence agencies. There is exactly zero percent chance she can take them down. Also, with the Israel First cabinet, considering Mossad basically runs the CIA, it's never going to happen from within the government. All the while, the woman involved in releasing the JFK files and the Epstein "list" is a hardcore supporter of Israel and considering Israel was involved in the assassination and that Israel literally employed Epstein as a blackmail agent, good luck my friends. More hopium that I hate to shatter but MUST for the sake of the truth. As food rations begin in some places and more plandemic fear mongering is pushed forward and people are sitting on their hands waiting for technocrat Elon Musk and Donald Trump to save them, time is running out to prepare yourselves.

GET YOUR APRICOT SEEDS at the life-saving Richardson Nutritional Center HERE: https://rncstore.com/r?id=bg8qc1 Josh Sigurdson reports on the RFK Jr. congressional hearings as he is set to be approved as the Health And Human Services secretary. As both Republicans and Democrats lose their mind over their owners, Big Pharma in the face of Bobby Kennedy and the idea of getting rid of processed foods, deadly vaccines and big pharma in general is incredibly tantalizing, there's a lot more happening behind closed doors. While RFK Jr. is generally right about most of Big Pharma's plans to mass murder us, one has got to understand the agenda to bring in technocracy to understand where the psyop is in these headlines. Millions are waking up to the plot to poison and kill the population through food, air, water and pharma, but they're being misdirected. Could Kennedy bring down multiple major pharmaceutical corporations? Yes. Is that the plan? Yes. So what then? You have only a few pharma corporations left with a larger monopoly and eventually they all come falling down leaving the end goal in plain sight. The state will become the centralized, monopolized pharmaceutical corporation. Just as it will be the bank, the food manufacturer and more. This was always the end goal. Total state monopoly. Technocratic Marxism if you will. While Trump pushes mRNA cancer vaccines and says he's open to do Operation Warpspeed 2.0 with Bill Gates and as RFK Jr. meets with Albert Bourla of Pfizer, there's so much more happening behind closed doors, yet most are sitting on their hands with hopium. We don't blame people for being fatigued by this issue but this is when your personal inaction effects you most. People will for a time have access to healthier foods. This is obviously good. But the emergency orders are coming by design. The rations and the enforcement of technocratic social/carbon credit restrictions worldwide are going to happen regardless of the president. All roads within the paradigm lead to the same Great Reset agenda. The solutions are individualistic. Not collectivist. The solution will not be the state. If they wanted to stop what was happening, they would. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

GET YOUR APRICOT SEEDS at the life-saving Richardson Nutritional Center HERE: https://rncstore.com/r?id=bg8qc1 Josh Sigurdson reports on the new mandates being pushed forward by the CDC as fearmongering surrounding the fake "Bird Flu" hoax continues through the media propaganda machine. The CDC is calling for mandatory testing, masking and more as they fraudulently use "PCR tests" as evidence of "Bird Flu." In Georgia, the chicken exhibitions, markets and the sale of chickens in general is banned as the Georgia Department Of Agriculture cracks down, just as the World Economic Forum asked of them. Now inaugurated President Donald Trump has pulled out of the World Health Organization...again. While this is no doubt good news, it's also being used as a distraction. Trump who awarded Fauci on his final day in office in 2021, bragged in ads about doing whatever he says and is indeed the father of Operation Warpspeed has been meeting alongside RFK jr with Bill Gates and Albert Bourla. Gates says that Trump is ready to bring in Operation Warpspeed 2.0 in the future and has committed to it "if necessary." So the stage is already set. Also, while the WHO is evil, that doesn't stop the CDC from continuing to push mandates and under emergency orders, Trump could be in a situation where he couldn't do ANYTHING to stop it, if he even wanted to. While the idea of bringing down pharma is obviously great, it's more than likely that a few companies will be taken down and a few more will be further monopolized and centralized under the arm of the state. Vaccine mandates aren't as likely to take hold this time, but certainly attacks on the food supply including further bans and poisonous rations could be the next "Plandemic" agenda as this is all a litmus for digital IDs and social credit based technocratic enslavement.

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma and Biotech world. Pfizer exceeded Wall Street's expectations in the third quarter, reporting higher revenue and adjusted profit amid pressure from activist investor Starboard Value. CEO Albert Bourla received a much-needed victory as the company performed well despite the challenges. In other news, Novartis also beat analyst expectations in Q3, driven by strong sales of Cosentyx. Wuxi Apptec, a Chinese contract manufacturer, continues to attract new clients despite potential threats from the BioSecure Act. The upcoming presidential election could impact the biopharma industry differently under Harris or Trump, with some analysts suggesting Trump may be more positive for the industry overall. Pfizer's success in Q3 and other developments in the biopharma industry, including new partnerships and drug approvals, are also highlighted.

While the case begun in 2023, Bill Gates has since refused to show up or respond to court filings against him which have also been brought against Pfizer's Albert Bourla, Mark Rutte and others. Now, the Dutch court has notified Bill Gates that his claims that he court doesn't have jurisdiction over him are wrong and he has been formally instructed to appear in this trial case. Bill Gates as we have reported in the past has been indicted in places like India over the Covid injections as well, though nothing came of it thus far despite the Bombay High Court issuing a notice to him. Arno van Kessel and Peter Stassen are representing seven claimants who say they have been injured by the Covid vaccines. Of course, with hundreds of studies and government statistics pointing to millions of deaths following the vaccine rollout, there is no shock that there's pushback. Of course many vaccine manufacturers have been deemed "immune" to lawsuits over the vaccines, but this is starting to get overturned in more places as deaths pile up. Albert Bourla was previously sued and lost over misleading the public about Covid vaccines but only faced a monetary punishment. Bill Gates continues alongside the CDC, Big Pharma and Facebook to fund "influencers" to promote vaccines to children. Yes, it's pure evil. But... Will Bill Gates actually face justice in this life? That is yet to be seen. Most are complacent with the attack we've seen against humanity in the past years. While this case is certainly big, we must understand that the way we destroy the beast is to reject it and stop depending on it when it comes to money, food, electricity, housing and convenience in general. This is a war on humanity and they either want us dead or they want us enslaved to a technocratic grid where we may as well be dead. Prepare yourselves today. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

The Power of Communication: Insights from Sally Susman, Author of 'Breaking Through' In this episode, Aiden welcomes Sally Susman, author of 'Breaking Through: Communicating to Open Minds, Move Hearts, and Change the World' to discuss the vital role of communication in professional and personal settings. Sally shares insights from her extensive career, including her experiences working with top leaders at Pfizer, Estee Lauder, and American Express. The discussion explores the misconception of communication as a soft skill, the importance of authentic outreach, the power of gratitude, and Susman's innovative approaches during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sally also emphasises curiosity, creativity, and intentionality as key components for effective communication. Throughout the episode, real-life anecdotes and practical advice offer listeners valuable lessons on leadership and connection. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 00:39 The Importance of Communication 03:24 Lessons from Estee Lauder 06:09 Personal Background and Family Influence 08:51 The Power of Gratitude 13:15 Perfecting Your Pitch 23:02 Humour in the Workplace 29:36 Challenges at Pfizer 32:03 Facing the Biopharma Reputation Challenge 33:37 The Pandemic's Impact and New Leadership 35:02 Albert Bourla's Bold Vision 36:30 Revolutionising Vaccine Development 37:25 The Media's Role in the Journey 38:55 Pfizer's Transformation and Recognition 40:46 Innovative Leadership and Personal Growth 49:30 Curiosity and Creativity in Action 56:47 The Power of Intentionality 58:46 Concluding Thoughts and Inspirations
Border violence. Hostage diplomacy. Vaccine purchases. Just some of the areas where opaqueness in EU decision-making can erode public trust and ultimately democracy. These also are areas where accountability journalism like freedom of information requests can help uncover undue influence by lobbies and foreign powers as well as abuses by security services. One of the highest profile cases of accountability journalism in Europe to date is the decision by The New York Times to sue the European Commission for access to phone messages — messages in which the Commission's president, Ursula von der Leyen, and the chief executive of Pfizer, Albert Bourla, reportedly negotiated vaccine purchases during the Covid-19 pandemic. Matina Stevis, the outgoing Brussels bureau chief for the Times, who is part of that lawsuit, says such scrutiny would be comparatively banal in jurisdictions like the US where news media and government regularly wrangle in court over the line between an executive's ability to govern and the public's right to know. But in the EU such scrutiny still can arouse accusations of euroscepticism and even sympathies with Brexit. Matina says the EU's accountability muscles need "deepening and flexing and exercising" but she also suggests reporters working EU corridors may need to do more to avoid "falling into the traps of access journalism" and "going, going softly so that people keep answering their phones when you call." Also in this episode, the pros and cons of reporting on the case of Johan Floderus, the EU official recently released from captivity in Iran. And a hard and harrowing look at the evidence of deadly actions by the Greek coastguard toward migrants on the Mediterranean Sea — and at the half-hearted attempts by Brussels to rein in such abuses amid tectonic shifts in refugee law and policy. These include calls for the so-called externalization of migration where refugees and asylum seekers must have their applications to enter the EU assessed offshore in countries like Albania or even Rwanda. Such shifts also entail discussions on reforming and even abandoning the 1951 Refugee Convention that was a key plank of postwar humanitarianism.Support the Show.
With an extensive background in policy, advocacy, and corporate governance, Karen shares insights from her roles at Pfizer, iFIT Health & Fitness, and the NAACP. She recounts her journey to becoming a board member including her experiences during the IPO process at iFIT, and the challenges and triumphs of leading through turbulent times. Additionally, Karen reflects on the significance of diversity in board composition and the enduring impact of Brown v. Board of Education on the 70th anniversary of the decision. We love our listeners! Drop us a line or give us guest suggestions here. Big Ideas/Thoughts/Quotes 1. First For-Profit Board Experience: iFIT Health & Fitness Karen recounts her journey leading to joining the board of iFIT Health & Fitness, her first for profit board seat, emphasizing the importance of networking and building relationships. She shares how an unexpected opportunity arose from her connections with the Church of Latter-Day Saints and describes the rapid onboarding process and initial experiences as a new board member during a critical time for the company.

She discusses the board's decision-making process in response to adverse market conditions and the strategic adjustments that were necessary. The conversation highlights the importance of having a diverse and well-composed board to navigate events that are significant & challenging for a company. "When you are preparing an S-1, you learn everything about a company very quickly." "The numbers weren't where they were projected to be at that particular time, and I'm really proud of us because it could have been easy to just buckle down and go forward, but that was not the right thing for the company." Post-IPO Attempt and Company Turnaround The discussion moves to the aftermath of the decision to not proceed with the IPO and the strategies employed to stabilize and grow iFIT Health & Fitness. "What I'm happy to say is that despite the overall industry being at a bit of a downturn, we have come through the worst of it, at least we hope we've navigated through the turmoil and are at a new era." 2.

Karen's insights emphasize the critical role of strong leadership in navigating crises and driving impactful results. "I believe to my core that no one else could have gotten that company to have that level of impact in such a short period of time [during the Covid outbreak] other than Albert Bourla and the team that he leads." "Leadership matters" 3. Role with the NAACP Karen is the Vice Chair of the NAACP's National Board of Directors and provides an overview of her role discussing the organization's mission, structure, and its ongoing important advocacy work. She also reflects on the 70th anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education decision and its lasting impact on education equality. The conversation underscores the importance of historical context in shaping current and future initiatives for civil rights and social justice. On recognizing the 70th anniversary of Brown v Board of Education in the Oval Office “It is a moment I will never forget and it's not just about being in the Oval Office with the President, but it was being there with these family members who had made so many sacrifices." 4.

CNN reporter Alice Stewart died suddenly yesterday and while it's always tragic to lose a life, it's interesting to see so many of the propagandists who told parents to inject their children suddenly succumbing to the same propaganda. A child collapsed behind Canadian dictator Justin Trudeau at a press conference in Winnipeg, a city where children were force-vaccinated in massive numbers. Meanwhile, Pfizer has quietly settled 10,000 cancer lawsuits recently as they prepare to sell cancer related drugs following a buy-up of countless cancer companies. Albert Bourla, the CEO recently claimed "cancer is the new covid" for their business model. Pfizer was also recently caught hiding SV-40 in their covid injections which is a leading cause of cancer. There is also a new psyop forming as countless major players in the covid propaganda suddenly come out of the woodwork claiming they were vaccine injured and are taking Ivermectin. Chris Cuomo is a great example of this. He attacked anyone who dared to reject the vaccines and now he's calling for a government inquiry on it so that government can find themselves not guilty. The psyop is obvious. Fauci is being called out by mainstream media for poisoning the masses. Former CDC director Robert Redfield has also said that the injections are deadly. It seems a new fake alternative media is being formed. People are supposed to trust the opportunist scum who got everything wrong by design to be the new "rebels." The WHO is heading towards the approval of the Pandemic Treaty in most parts of the world. An incredibly Orwellian development as they simultaneously attempt to control the world's food supply. Dr. David Martin recently called them a "criminal racketeering organization founded by eugenicists." Central bankers including World Economic Forum members have recently spoken on the fact that people are more willing to comply with CBDCs following the fear surrounding covid. It's like everything we say comes true... Unfortunately people will still call us crazy. Stay tuned for more from WAM!

German member of European Parliament, Christine Anderson, details how she was censored during a recent EU Hearing for questioning the collusion between the husband of EU President, Ursula von der Leyen, and Pfizer CEO, Albert Bourla, in 2020 regarding contracts between Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine and European governments.

As Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla recently stated, "Oncology is our new covid." He bragged about the fear surrounding the massive uptick in cancer as a reason why they're going to make a lot of money. Of course, Pfizer has played a major part in giving people cancer with their deadly injections. Recently, Pfizer was caught hiding the presence of SV-40, a cancer-linked DNA in the covid vaccines. Moderna had previously admitted that their vaccines cause cancer. Now Pfizer is being caught using the same DNA fragments in their shots. As we've been reporting for years, so-called "turbo cancer" is due to the mRNA vaccines. Just like "Sudden Adult Death Syndrome" or myocarditis is from the vaccines as well. Pfizer is pushing for not just new dangerous cancer drugs as they buy up countless cancer related companies but they are also pushing for an mRNA cancer vaccine which both presidential candidates have promoted. This is incredibly dangerous. It's like adding kerosene to put out a fire. The "solution" is the cause. 65% of of cancer cases received one or more covid injections according to Croatian pathologists. This is a massive number and explains the massive sudden increase in cancer. Then there's the poisoned food supply where traces of mRNA have been found in grocery stores, from meat to vegetables. There's the spraying of the skies. There's hydrofluosilicic acid (or industrial fluoride) in the water supply which few filters can remove. We are under attack by a cancer conspiracy. It's no wonder Albert Bourla giggles about people living in fear and says "cancer is our new covid." Please take the solutions we provide seriously. Your life could depend on it.

Alex Jones Proven Right Again: Pfizer Head Says Cancer Is the New Covid After Injecting Billions With Compounds Confirmed to Cause Cancer The Alex Jones ShowPfizer stock is up after CEO Albert Bourla promises the treatment of the new ‘mysterious' explosion in cancer will be incredibly profitable! Studies confirm this cancer surge happened right AFTER injections rolled out!
La Procura europea sta indagando su potenziali reati legati ai negoziati tra la presidente della Commissione europea Ursula von der Leyen e l'amministratore delegato di Pfizer, Albert Bourla, per l'acquisto di vaccini anti Covid nel corso del 2021. Secondo Politico.eu, le ipotesi di reato sono "interferenza nelle funzioni pubbliche, distruzione di sms, corruzione e conflitto di interesse". Facciamo il punto con Enrico Bucci, biochimico, professore di Biologia presso la Temple University di Philadelphia.A seguire parliamo del pentimento dell’ex boss dei Casalesi Francesco Schiavone, detto “Sandokan”, che ha deciso di avviare un percorso di collaborazione con l’autorità giudiziaria.
The globalist world order is crumbling right before our very eyes, and in many ways, nowhere are we seeing this more clearly than in the world of health and medicine – the globalist's favorite weapon for manipulation! The US military is sending out letters en masse apologizing for the forced COVID injections and requesting that those who were driven out of the service reapply now that there is no mandate. They are desperate and despite all the evidence to the contrary, Albert Bourla, Pfizer CEO and maybe one of the most odious and despicable characters currently in power, continues to celebrate the vaccine rollout as some sort of a success. To talk more about this, I am joined again by my good friend, investor, and food scientist Clint Winters. Clint is the first medical scientist and inventor behind "natural conolidine," a powerful pain reliever that compares to opioids, without any side effects or addiction risk. He has licensed his dual polar technology exclusively to GDR Labs which produces conolidine under the name CONOCB2. Today, Clint is considered an expert in the field of anti-aging and dietary supplements. Using his protocols (at 41) he is stronger and leaner than he was in his twenties with an estimated biological age of 22.

It's finally happened. Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer is being sued for its so-called COVID vaccines. The new lawsuit was brought last week by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton under Texas trade practices law. Paxton alleges that Pfizer misled the public over the efficacy of its so-called vaccines—in particular when Pfizer and its CEO, Albert Bourla, repeatedly claimed that their so-called vaccine was 100 percent effective. Now the obvious question is this: Why did it take so long to bring this case? We've known for a long time that the pharmaceutical companies overpromised and underdelivered—to put it mildly. Well, the problem for Paxton and other attorneys general is that in March of 2020, the federal government granted pharmaceutical giants far-reaching immunity against prosecution for their so-called vaccines. So how will Paxton overcome this immunity? His lawsuit doesn't say, but we have a good idea of what the plan is—and it looks quite promising. ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV
The globalist world order is crumbling right before our very eyes, and in many ways, nowhere are we seeing this more clearly than in the world of health and medicine – the globalist's favorite weapon for manipulation! As we speak, the US military is sending out letters en masse effectively apologizing for the forced COVID injections and requesting that those who were driven out of the service reapply now that there is no mandate. They are desperate folks and despite all the evidence to the contrary, Albert Bourla, Pfizer CEO and maybe one of the most odious and despicable characters currently in power, continues to celebrate the vaccine rollout as some sort of a success. To talk about this extraordinary turn of events, I am joined again by my good friend, investor, and food scientist Clint Winters who has already helped thousands of you Turley Talkers overcome chronic pain without selling your body and soul to big pharma and the medical industrial complex. “Our current health care system is built around helping you once you're sick.

Today's guest on The CMO Podcast is Drew Panayiotou, the Global Chief Marketing Officer of Pfizer, the $100 billion by sales bio-pharmaceutical giant. Pfizer was founded in 1949 in Brooklyn, NY by cousins Charles Pfizer and Charles Erhart, and has since become one of the most important global healthcare companies. Case in point–Pfizer and its CEO Albert Bourla became household names during the pandemic as they rolled out COVID-19 vaccines with unprecedented speed and scale. Our guest, Drew, is no stranger to brands. He has worked with some of the world's best brand builders: CocaCola, The Walt Disney Company, Hershey's, Johnson & Johnson and Google. He also had a three-year stint as an ad agency President and CEO at BBDO Atlanta. Drew emigrated to the U.S. as a child from Paphos Cyprus–the mythical home of the goddess Aphrodite.

All three averages closed higher, reversing off yesterday's losses, and Jim Cramer is digging deeper into the turnaround. First, GM CEO Mary Barra stops by fresh off earnings to talk to Cramer about the quarter, the company's presence in the EV market and more. Then, Pfizer reported record 2022 revenue, but how might the winding down of the pandemic impact the company? Cramer's got CEO Albert Bourla to find out more about 4Q earnings and lower-than-expected guidance. Plus, Cramer crowns some new dividend aristocrats for investors to consider.
Project Veritas got an apparent Pfizer executive on video admitting the company does “directed evolution” of viruses, including Corona viruses. It's a great piece of work, but why is anyone shocked? We have covered Pfizer's many crimes and their lies; we have made clear they run the CDC and FDA and most of the Mockingbird Media.https://thetoddhermanshow.substack.com/p/the-united-states-of-pfizer#details. . . we just watched again how much control Pfizer has over media and tech. The MailOnline disappeared their story on the Project Veritas scoop. YouTube has deleted the video. Google played this game: The Mockingbirds aren't covering it. Then, there is Pfizer's response. I break it down in the show. Know this: Pfizer didn't want their response seen by anyone. How do I know? The same way anyone who works in the media knows. Look when they released it. What does God say?The Lord warned us about “times such as these …” Does this not describe everything The Party is pushing in our society? 2 Timothy 3:1-53 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.God will render His judgment 2 Thessalonians 1:9These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,The Lord wants people to repent, He wants to save us. He sent His only son for that purpose! How long have I said Pfizer is a criminal organization? BREAKING: @Pfizer Exploring "Mutating" COVID-19 Virus For New Vaccines. "Don't tell anyone this...There is a risk...have to be very controlled to make sure this virus you mutate doesn't create something...the way that the virus started in Wuhan, to be honest."Who is "Jordon Trishton Walker"?; Project Veritas recently released a video featuring "Jordon Trishton Walker," Pfizer executive who revealed shocking new info. But finding anything about him is tough. Here is what I've found so far.O'Keefe: We've obtained internal Pfizer docs verifying Jordan Walker as Pfizer Director, Research & Development Strategic Operations. Graduated Yale 2013. Doctor Med at U of Texas Southwestern medical school.. His supervisor reports to Mikael Dolsten who reports to Albert Bourla, CEO. Pfizer's response Malone: “OK, this is an interesting tidbit. Pfizer is basically acknowledging that they are doing the same type of gain of function research that Boston University was caught doing, but they are denying that it is gain of function or directed evolution.” CDC Official: “Just get rid of all the ‘whites . . . ‘“Language Warning: CRAZY: Justin Trudeau swarmed by angry protesters outside the Bread Bar in Hamilton.MailOnline deleted the story about Pfizer doing GOF on Corona VirusesAustralian Senator Malcolm Roberts drops truth bombs: "Billionaire, globalist corporations will own everything: Homes, factories, farms, cars, furniture, and everyday citizens will rent what they need - if their social credit score allows."Love or hate her, Ayn Rand was a piercing voice on moral questions that continue to haunt the 21st century. Watch this 1959 clip with Mike Wallace and ask yourself: was she wrong?EmailsCathiHey Todd, I just sat down to listen to your episode of Speak now or forever be held in silence. You had mentioned going on record with feeling like you're in a hostile work environment…YES!I did that with my company, a Major Bank. I've been there 21 years. After January 6th, 2021, The Bank and other woke corporations hopped on the narrative about insurrectionists and no PAC dollars to any elected member who questioned the election…blah blah.Anyway, I professionally and calmly escalated concerns until one The Head of Govt Relation direct reports contacted me and I calmly told them explicitly that The Bank was creating a hostile work environment. The Bank certainly didn't stop with wokeness but going on record like that is the only way to hold them accountable if one needs to take legal action - including if one gets fired for escalating concerns. We have to put that in there for protection - plus it's the truth.In addition, in December 2021 when The Bank and other organizations were pushing the injection or you couldn't take your mask off at work and new people couldn't be hired without proof of the injection, I escalated a letter to all of the Board of Directors, Operating Committee and most Senior Leaders. I told them I would hold them accountable to several things: since the injection does not prevent infection, they're completely ignorant on covid facts; given that the injection doesn't stop infection yet they're still pushing it, it seems entirely possible that some of them may have an unhealthy weighting of stock in pharmaceutical companies and should be audited for a conflict of interest; BUT the kicker of the feedback I gave was that THEY'RE the ones creating systemic racism given that black people and people of Mexican/Hispanic descent have the lowest injection rates and therefore are the ones who are disproportionately impacted by wearing masks and not being eligible for hire without the injection. By Feb they dropped in the injection requirement for new hires. By the end of March they very abruptly stopped their covid testing. I'm not saying it had anything to do with my letter. But it could have helped. If we go on record using their own rules, we can actually say a lot to senior leaders without compromising ourselves. And of course, we must always stay calm in written word and voice.God be with you, Todd.
It's Monday, January 30th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Iranian Christians face increased pressure in Islamic Republic In the Islamic Republic of Iran, Christians continue to face increased persecution as the Muslim authorities tighten their grip in response to nationwide protests since September 2022. Christian converts from Islam, in particular, face imprisonment of house church leaders and denial of their basic rights as citizens. Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, that brought the current Iranian government to power, hundreds of thousands of Iranians have trusted Christ as Savior. However, Christians are considered to be direct enemies of the Iranian state. According to Open Doors, Iran is the eighth most dangerous country to live in for Christians. Please pray for our Iranian brothers and sisters in Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:26 says, “If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.” Pfizer exec: Mutate COVID virus to profit from more vaccines The Project Veritas staff filmed Jordan Walker, the Pfizer Director of Research and Development, revealing the company might consider creating mutated forms of COVID-19 to develop highly profitable vaccines, reports LifeSiteNews. Listen. UNDERCOVER REPORTER: “Pfizer ultimately is thinking about mutating COVID?” WALKER: “Well, that's not what we say to the public. You know how the virus keeps mutating?” REPORTER: “Yeah.” WALKER: “Well, one of the things we're exploring is like, ‘Why don't we just mutate ourselves?' If we're gonna do that, though, there's a risk of, as you could imagine, no one wants to be having a pharma company mutating viruses. It would be very controlled to make sure that the virus that you mutate, doesn't create something like, goes everywhere.” Dr. Robert Malone, a scientist and the Medical Director of the Unity Project, was horrified. MALONE: “The gentleman seems to have absolutely no moral compass at all. If this is the quality of individuals within Pfizer that are making these huge decisions that risk global public health, it's profoundly corrupt!” In response, Republican leaders and conservative commentators have demanded answers from Pfizer and criticized the power held by pharmaceutical companies. Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio sent a letter to CEO Albert Bourla asking for transparent information regarding the pharmaceutical's plans to mutate the COVID virus. In a written statement, Pfizer did not dispute that Dr. Jordan Walker told a Project Veritas journalist that Pfizer is exploring how to “mutate” the COVID-19 virus. However, Walker, the Pfizer Director of Research and Development, explained how Pfizer was already mutating the COVID virus. WALKER: “The way it would work is that we put the virus in monkeys.” UNDERCOVER REPORTER: “Okay.” WALKER: “and we successively causing them to keep infecting each other, and we collect serial samples from them. And then, once they're more infectious, the virus we'll put them in another monkey and just constantly actively mutate it. That's one way.” Fox News host Tucker Carlson weighed in. CARLSON: “A Pfizer executive bragging on camera about how his company conducts a kind of Frankenstein science, manipulating COVID viruses for profit, imperiling potentially the entire world doing it in secret, possibly in violation of federal law. Bragging about this. No matter what your politics are, doesn't matter who you voted for, that's a huge story. And you would think every reporter in this country would be itching to follow up on it, calling Pfizer, telling the public about it. But no, that's not happening.” Bodycam video reveals hammer assault of Paul Pelosi Two disturbing police videos were just released Friday. First, the long-suppressed October 28, 2022 video from a San Francisco policeman's bodycam that shows a portion of the brutal hammer attack on Paul Pelosi, the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The assailant's name is David DePape, a 42-year-old Canadian illegal alien, who abused drugs, was part of a public nudist group, and had exhibited psychotic behavior, reports the New York Post. In a bizarre audio statement which DePape read to a KTVU reporter last Friday, he didn't apologize for the attack, but apologized for not hurting more people. New video of cops beating a Tennessee motorist In the second video released Friday, Tyre Nichols, a 29-year-old black motorist who was pulled over in Memphis, Tennessee on January 7th for reckless driving, was aggressively beaten by five black Memphis police officers, reports National Public Radio. He had tried to flee on foot. Nichols died three days later in the hospital. The footage emerged one day after the officers were charged with murder in Nichols' death. In response, talk show host Todd Starnes reports that a truck rammed stores followed by looting Saturday. Christian cop resigns after superiors upset with anti-“gay” marriage post And finally, Jacob Kersey, a 19-year-old Christian police officer in Georgia, has resigned after he was told by superiors that he could not share his personal religious views on social media, reports The Daily Signal. On January 2, Kersey posted a 20-word message about his view of marriage on Facebook. In a paraphrase of the Apostle Paul's teaching in Ephesians, he wrote, “God designed marriage. Marriage refers to Christ and the church. That's why there is no such thing as homosexual marriage.” The next day, Kersey said he received a phone call from his supervisor, who told him that someone had complained about the post and to take it down. When Kersey refused, the supervisor warned him that failure to delete the Facebook post on marriage could result in his termination. Kersey said he then was contacted by Lt. Justin Hardy who told him that the Port Wentworth Police Department did not want to be held liable by homosexuals. Kersey still refused to delete the post. Kersey said that Police Chief Matt Libby told him that his Facebook post on marriage was the “same thing as saying the N-word.” After a week of paid administrative leave, Kersey was told he could not work as one of the department's officers if he continued to share his “interpretation or opinion on Scripture if it was deemed offensive.” He refused to be censored and quit. He told The Daily Signal that his decision to share his story “could very well mean I will not have another opportunity to be a police officer. That has been an extremely difficult reality to accept, but I sincerely believe speaking up is the right thing to do.” Jacob Kersey exemplifies 1 Corinthians 16:13 which says, “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.” Join me and send a polite email of objection to Port Wentworth Police Chief Matt Libby about his department's bullying of Officer Jacob Kersey.

The Party continues to insist the only standard for behavior is “who has the power?” We must confront the technocrats or they will roll over people. The man who popularized the phrase “Deep State” and forced them to reveal what they are doesn't appear ready to go after the medical-technocratic Deep State. There has never been a better time to go after these people. In England, an NIH executive admitted they lied about Covid deaths to make the “pandemic” seem worse. It has become inescapably evident that the CDC has lied about everything and continues to launder deaths from injections into deaths from Covid. Tony Blair wants a global, digital platform so all governments will know everyone's “vaccination” status. President Trump's explanation for his support of the mRNA concoctions has become more nuanced and balanced. But, he still talks about these injections having saved “hundreds of millions of lives”, which, given even the most optimistic view of these injections, would mean Covid took a billion lives. These people will not stop, they have to be stopped. Can President Trump get there? What does God say? The Lord knows not just what these people are doing, He knows why they are doing it. 1 Samuel 16:1-13 “The Lord does not see as mortals see; they look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.”God sees that these people want to forcibly change our DNA--that which He created--into their image. He sees that they abhor His creation in ways beyond “medicine.” The WEF wants to force people to stop eating meat and, instead, to consume fake, patented protein-goop The Party makes. God made all foods for us.1 Timothy 4:2-42 "Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. 4 For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving . . . "The Lord told us what kind of people should be our leaders. What Are the Qualifications of an Elder? If they feel they have to, or are told to, The Mockingbirds will hang every injury and death from the mRNA injections around Trump's neck.

Well, the TRAITOR-IN-CHIEF Joe Biden just did it. He signed the Declaration of North America, the NWO's vision for a 'North American Union'. The demonic puppet President can not wait to sell out you and your country out to the United Nations, the World Economic Forum and the 2030 agenda to destroy your beloved Republic and all that you hold dear.

[00:30] Tony ‘Apolitical' Fauci (20 minutes) Tony Fauci is finally getting called on the carpet for his many lies during the COVID scam-demic. On Wednesday last week, Fauci faced a seven-hour deposition by the Missouri and Louisiana attorneys general, who had a copy of The Real Anthony Fauci on the table during the session. Meanwhile, Fauci says Republicans have politicized the coronavirus, but that he, personally, is “not political at all.” [20:40] China's Zero COVID Policy (9 minutes) China is trying to hush up the ongoing protests in its major cities against President Xi Jinping's “zero-COVID” policy. In response to these protests, CNN abruptly changed its tune—celebrating Chinese protesters for opposing the same aggressive lockdown measures that it praised the Chinese government for throughout 2020. [30:00] Bourla's Fake Science (7 minutes) Pfizer CEO Dr. Albert Bourla is facing criticism from the UK's pharmaceutical regulator for promoting COVID vaccines for children ages 5 to 11 before the vaccine was approved for children. [37:30] Offensive Warfare (18 minutes) The Bible uses strong language when describing our spiritual warfare. As God's army, our responsibility is to press our way into the Kingdom of God (Luke 16:16) and “take it by force” (Matthew 11:12). We must “endure hardness” and “strive for masteries” (2 Timothy 2:3-5) as good soldiers, battling for God.
THE THESIS: It's not a thesis, it's a fact: Tony Fauci got $5 million richer while he destroyed the economy, wrecked churches, caused record levels of reen suicides, forced people to get injected with a medically useless, injruous and all too often deadly mRNA concoction that, in all likelihood, will kill far more people than that Cvoid flu directly killed. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: The Lord Jesus was furious at how the religious technocrats treated the temple and the people trying to worship. Imagine how God must feel about Tony Fauci attacking the temples of people's bodies using lies and extortion. Matthew 21:12-13Jesus at the Temple12 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 13 “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.Jesus will judge. I pray Tony Fauci will repent. 2 Timothy 4:1-24 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.THE NEWS & COMMENT:There never was an emergency in the true sense of the word, there was a blatantly manufactured crisis. Still, Democrats will not let go of this opportunity to raid the Treasury. Democrat Blocks Resolution to End National COVID-19 EmergencyBerenson: “$2.6 billion later, why is FEMA STILL paying people up to $9,000 (for burial expenses) to count deaths as Covid? Why are Covid deaths worth more than others? What's the “emergency” FEMA is managing at this point?”Video:- Rep. Thomas Massie: Amtrak has a COVID vax mandate for employees. Today, I told Amtrak's CEO their mandate is based on mysticism, disproven myths, and superstition.The highest paid grifting-murderer in government got $5 million richer during his assault on America and the world. Fauci and wife's net worth increased by $5M during the pandemic, analysis finds; Fauci and wife experienced net worth increase as many Americans and businesses struggled during pandemicLike Fauci, the bossman of Pfizer got richer. He is afraid to try to answer for that, because he can't. Pfizer CEO pulls out of testifying to EU Parliament COVID panel; High-level contacts between Albert Bourla and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen before multibillion-euro vaccine deal are under scrutiny.Thank the Lord, people have seen enough light to protect their children from the mRNA trash. mRNA Covid shots for kids are dead; Only 325,000 of the 19 million children under 5 are fully vaccinated, not even 2 percent. Cue the excuses from vaccine fanatics. . . that's important because, like our guest last week, John O'Looney, Brenton Faithful is watching who is dying in New Zealand and 95% of them are injected. [AUDIO] - NZ funeral director, Brenton Faithful has some disturbing findings. According to his records (Aug21/22) an astonishing 95% of the deaths that he dealt with occurred within 2 weeks of inject. Further, Coroners are refusing to investigate!
THE THESIS: The Party knows they lied, they know they have killed people and made them sicker, perhaps for life. But, that is not about to tamper their obsession with getting every single one of us injected with the mRNA sequences. None of this can be excluded as healthcare. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: We must be grounded in solid, Biblical worldviews and we must keep in our hearts and minds the Word of God. His Word is applicable to all times. By living in it, we will more easily spot the lies of this fallen world. Hebrews 4:12 12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Yes, it seems overwhelming. But, please remember, what God says He will do a thing, it is already done. He does not operate in timelines, He is timeless. These battles for earthly power amount to nothing in the face of The Lord. Scriptures to Remind You that God Has Already Won the Battle for You THE NEWS & COMMENT: Yeah, sure . . . it was Covid to blame for a 94 year old woman dying. But, The Party has to keep the fear building. Hey, look! The same mRNA that The Party injected into to people with Covid as the reason, is now going to be used to fight cancer. That's convenient since, according to Dr. Ryan Cole and data from Ethical Skpetic's analsysis of public and private health data, AND insurance company reporting, cancer has radically increased since the injection coercion drive began. [AUDIO] - Joe Biden on curing cancer: "To prevent cancers, scientists are exploring whether mRNA vaccine technology that brought us safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines could be used to stop cancer cells when they first arise." Little bits at a time, Party members are telling little bits of the truth . . . [AUDIO] - Australian “health” officials are starting to let the truth dribble-out But, dissident doctors brave enough to speak the full truth are Godsends [AUDIO] - Dr. Meryl Nass: Insanity of the new covid boosters: Interview with The New American, Dr. Maryl Nass detailed the disastrous safety and efficacy data for the Omicron boosters that were not even tested in humans, and warned people against taking them, calling it "insanity." . . . Whistleblowers are Godsent. This woman proves that Isreali “health” officials repeatedly falsified data to pretend the mRNA injections worked and, maybe worse, to pretend they aren't harmful. That is NOT an act of delivering healthcare. They are killing people and they know it or they wouldn't have tried so desperately to hide it. CATASTROPHIC Israeli cover-up of COVID vaccine harms: Yaffa Shir-Raz, health researcher in Israel, blows the whistle and releases twitter (10 posts) of what she uncovered & what Israel is hiding Just as many of us said early on: when you shove what can most charitably be called a non-neutralizing agent into people's bodies during an outbreak, you will make things worse. This is epidemiology 101. When that agent invites a host of illnesses by deranging the immune system, it is even easier to predict. ‘Unethical' and up to 98 Times Worse Than the Disease: Top Scientists Publish Paradigm-Shifting Study About COVID-19 Vaccines A team of nine experts from Harvard, Johns Hopkins, and other top universities has published paradigm-shifting research about the efficacy and safety of the COVID-19 vaccines and why mandating vaccines for college students is unethical. This 50-page study, which was published on The Social Science Research Network at the end of August, analyzed CDC and industry-sponsored data on vaccine adverse events, and concluded that mandates for COVID-19 boosters for young people may cause 18 to 98 actual serious adverse events for each COVID-19 infection-related hospitalization theoretically prevented. The paper is co-authored by Dr. Stefan Baral, an epidemiology professor at Johns Hopkins University; surgeon Martin Adel Makary, M.D., a professor at Johns Hopkins known for his books exposing medical malfeasance, including “Unaccountable: What Hospitals Won't Tell You and How Transparency Can Revolutionize Heath Care”; and Dr. Vinayak Prasad, a hematologist-oncologist, who is a professor in the UCSF Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, as well as the author of over 350 academic and peer-reviewed articles. The Party is still pushing the mRNA and pretending its safe and effective at the same time they are creating a food shortage and pretending they are shocked. Incidentally, did you know the government has a voluntary program for you to register your garden? Good thing that will always be voluntary---RIGHT? The USDA is encouraging people to register their garden under the guise of a community program called “The People's Garden”. They're literally creating a map of anyone who grows their own produce. Guess what that map will be used for later? https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/national/newsroom/releases/?cid=NRCSEPRD1952625 The character of The Party has been on full display. There is no honor among thieves and here is the boss-man of Pfizer announcing that he was just following orders . . . [AUDIO] - Pfizer boss Albert Bourla backs down completely and now maintains that the "mRNA vaccine" technology was not sufficiently proven when they launched the Covid one. He says they "convinced him" but he wasn't sure. More on the character of Pfizer . . . No Whites Allowed: Pfizer Fellowship Flagrantly Violates the Law, Lawyers Say; The 'Breakthrough Fellowship' prohibits whites and Asians from applying, a restriction that is 'flagrantly illegal' Pfizer's cartel head gets billions. Truth-telling MDs get thrown into psych wards and diagnosed with “Corona ‘Insanity.'” [AUDIO] - Dr. Thomas Binder, MD, explains his brutal encounter with police and subsequent placement in a psychiatric unit for speaking the truth. Full interview coming soon via TLAV! . . . OR, in D.C., they get tossed into prison and kept in solitary for eight days for refusing the mRNA injections. [AUDIO] - Dr. Simone Gold is out of prison, here is her message. The lead sociopath of the CDC--and, yes, I fully believe Fauci is a sociopath--is slow-walking release of his emails that will likely prove he was helping to run the government censorship program they execute through State-actors, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, Vimeo, Scrid'd, etc . . . [AUDIO] - Fauci has been court-ordered to turn over emails regarding his potential collusion with Big Tech to censor viewpoints he deemed ‘misinformation'. “All of America should be appalled that ‘America's Doctor' doesn't want to divulge his communications with Big Tech.” There is a rage building and it makes sense; this firefighter is right about all of this. Still, I get you to give this to Jesus. The Enemy wants us unraged, please don't take the bait. [AUDIO] - "I could run into a burning building for this city but I couldn't eat in a restaurant" It was all nonsense. Most of us knew it. When installing a tyrannical state, disciplining people to do the ridiculous is a major goal. That creates great soldiers for harming neighbors. [AUDIO] - Dr. Paul Alexander: “I asked (CDC Director) Dr. Redfield about the Science the CDC used to make Six Feet Social Distancing Rules etc... ”He said there is no Science, We Made it Up” The rage will be hard to contain as the proof of their murders and murders-to-come builds. Please,”take every thought captive to Christ.“ A new study in NEJM shows not only that Pfizer vaccine effectiveness becomes negative within five months but that the vaccines destroy any protection a person would have had from natural immunity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The recently signed gun law, S. 2938: Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, contained a surprise dingleberry postponing a regulation designed to save seniors money on their pharmaceutical drugs by prohibiting kickbacks to an industry few have heard of: Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs). This little-known but extremely powerful industry deserves much of the blame for ever rising prescription drugs costs in the United States. In this episode, Jen gives you the scoop on PBMs and how they make their money at the expense of Americans who are most dependent on medications.

Arthur, R.Ph., Owner, Black Rock Pharmacy David Balto, Law Offices of David A. Balto PLLC Amy Bricker, R.Ph. Vice President of Retail Contracting & Strategy, Express Scripts Natalie A. Pons, Senior Vice President and Assistant General Counsel, CVS Health Clips 53:48 Bradley Arthur: The Big Three PBMs control almost 80% of the entire market and these PBMs have the upper hand both in negotiating the contract with the payer, as well as strongly influencing the actual plan design itself. The PBM industry typically states that they can use their economic power to harness enhanced market efficiencies, but for whom? However, the staggering annual revenues that continue to grow each year of the big three suggests that these efficiencies are going directly to their corporations' bottom lines. Small community pharmacies like mine are faced on a daily basis with the impact of the PBMs' disproportionate market power. Community pharmacies routinely must agree to take-it-or-leave-it contracts from the PBMs just to continue to serve our long-standing patients. As if that weren't enough, the PBMs also directly set the reimbursement rates for pharmacies, the very same pharmacies that stand in direct competition of some of these PBM-owned mail-order and specialty pharmacies. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the PBMs present employer and government payers with carefully tailored suggested plans designs that steer beneficiaries to these PBM-owned entities. Drug Pricing in America: A Prescription for Change, Part I January 29, 2019 Senate Committee on Finance Witnesses: Kathy Sego, Mother of a Child with Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Ph.D., President, American Action Forum Mark E. Miller, Ph.D., Vice President of Health Care, Laura and John Arnold Foundation Peter B. Bach, MD, MAPP, Director, Memorial Sloan Kettering Center for Health Policy and Outcomes Clips 1:57:30 Sen. John Cornyn (R - TX): Can anybody on the panel explain to me why we have a general prohibition against kickbacks — they call them rebates — under the Social Security Act, but we nevertheless allow it for prescription drug pricing? What's the sound public policy reason for excluding prescription drug pricing from the anti-kickback rule under federal law? Douglas Holtz-Eakin: I can't explain that and won't pretend to. [laughter] Sen. Cornyn: I thought I was the only one who didn't understand the wisdom of that. Well, it's not a transparent arrangement and it does produce upward pressure on drug prices. And obviously, the negotiations between the PBM and the pharma in terms of what the net cost is, is not transparent, nor is it delivered to the consumer. Is it Dr. Miller? Dr. Bach? Peter Bach: It's delivered to the consumer indirectly through the reduction of the total cost of the benefit, but it is not delivered to the actual consumer using the drug, and that is a disassociation, that is a problem. Because it essentially reverses the structure of insurance. Lowering the total costs are people who use it the least, and raising the costs are people who use it the most, relative to if you allowed the rebate to be used at the point of sale, including all discounts. 1:59:49 Douglas Holtz-Eakin: If we had the negotiation be about the upfront price, so instead of a high list price and a rebate, you just negotiate a lower price, that would be the price that Ms. Sego would pay and insurance companies would look at that and say, okay, she's not paying as much as she used to, we're going to have to make up that money somewhere else and they might raise premiums. That means that people who don't have extreme insulin drug costs would pay a little bit more in a premium every month, and people who have extremely devastating medical conditions and high health care costs would get less costs. That's exactly what insurance is supposed to do. And so the rebate system is more than giving strange incentives on pricing. It's undercutting the purpose of insurance in general. Drug Pricing in America: A Prescription for Change, Part II February 26, 2019 Senate Committee on Finance Witnesses: Richard A. Gonzalez, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, AbbVie Inc. Pascal Soriot, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer, AstraZeneca Giovanni Caforio, M.D., Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. Jennifer Taubert, Executive Vice President, Worldwide Chairman, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Johnson & Johnson Kenneth C. Frazier, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Merck & Co., Inc. Albert Bourla, DVM, Ph.D., Chief Executive Office, Pfizer Olivier Brandicourt, M.D., Former Chief Executive Officer, Sanofi Clips 1:22:03 Albert Bourla: Adverse incentives that favor higher cost biologics are keeping biosimilars from reaching patients. In many cases, insurance companies declined to include lower cost biosimilars in their formularies because they would risk losing the rebates from covering higher cost medicines. I can't think of a more concerning example of a broken system and we need to do something about it. 1:33:35 Sen. Chuck Grassley (R - IA): So many of you have voiced support for the recent rebate rule proposed by the administration. Should the administration finalized this rule, will you commit to lowering your drug prices? Richard Gonzalez [CEO, AbbVie]: Mr. Chairman, we are supportive of the rule. We'd like to see it in its final form, obviously, to make a final decision, but we are supportive of taking the discount to the patient at the point of sale. Sen Grassley: Okay. AstraZeneca? **Pascal Soriot [CEO, AstraZeneca]**The same for us Senator, I would go one step further: if the rebates were removed from the commercial sector as well, we will definitely reduce our list prices. Sen Grassley: Okay. And Bristol? Giovanni Caforio [CEO, Bristol-Myers Squibb]: We have the same positions. Sen Grassley: Okay. Johnson and Johnson? Jennifer Taubert [EVP, J&J]: Yes, we're supportive, and that definitely would be my goal. We would just need to see the final legislation, provided that there aren't additional fees that are added into the system to compensate for the rebates. Sen Grassley: Merck? **Kenneth C. Frazier: I would expect that our prices would go down if we change the system. Again, on the commercial side as well as the Medicare side. Sen Grassley: Okay, Pfizer? Albert Bourla [CEO, Pfizer]: It is a very clear intention that we will not keep a single dollar from these rebates. We will try to move every single penny to the patients and we think if this goes also to the commercial plants that will be even better for more patients. Sen Grassley: Okay. Sanofi? Olivier Brandicourt [Former CEO, Sanofi]: Lowering list price has to be linked to better access and affordability at the counter for the patients. 1:35:20 Sen. Ron Wyden (D - OR): Is it correct that your company, and nobody else, sets the starting price for all drugs sold by Pfizer? Yes or no? Albert Bourla: It is a negotiation with PBMs and they are very powerful. Sen. Wyden: But you still get to set the list price? Albert Bourla: Yes, but we set this price and the rebate limit(?). 1:35:40 Sen. Ron Wyden (D - OR): Is it correct, when a hypothetical patient, let's call her Mrs. Jones, goes to pay for her drug at the pharmacy counter, her coinsurance is based on the price of the drug you set? Albert Bourla: It is correct in many cases. Sen. Wyden: Okay. I just want you all to know that the number one reason consumers are getting hammered, is because these list prices, which you have the last word with respect to where they are, are unaffordable. And the high prices are tied to what the consumer pays at the pharmacy counter. And all this other stuff you talk about, the rebates and the discounts and the coupons, all this other stuff is window dressing, all of that. And the fact is on Part D, 40% of the drugs don't even have a rebate. So I want it understood, particularly because I've asked you, Mr. Borla, I think you and others in the industry are stonewalling on the key issue, which is actually lowering list prices. And reducing those list prices are the easiest way for American consumers to pay less at the pharmacy counter. 2:12:45 Sen. Thomas Carper (D-DE): First is eliminating rebates to PBMs. That's the first one, eliminating rebates to PBMs. The second is value based arrangements. And the third is increasing transparency industry-wide on how you set your prices. 2:13:20 Richard Gonzalez: We clearly support providing the discount at the patient level, eliminating rebates essentially. 2:14:10 Pascal Soriot: If the rebates, as I said earlier, were to be removed from Part D and the commercial sector, we would actually reduce our list prices. 2:15:10 Giovanni Caforio: I would say that not only do we support all three elements that you mentioned, but I do believe those three elements together with the continued effort to develop a generic and biosimilar market would mean significant change, and would clearly alleviate the concerns that patients have today. 2:14:44 Jennifer Taubert: We are very supportive of all three elements that you outlined 2:15:52 Kenneth Frazier: We too support all three. 2:15:55 Albert Bourla: All three elements are transformational for our industry, will disrupt it. However, we do agree that these are the three things that need to be done and also I believe that will have significant meaningful results if we do. 2:16:10 Olivier Brandicourt: We support the three Senator, but we want to keep in mind at the end of the chain the patient has to benefit, so if rebates are removed it has to be to the benefit of patients. Sen. Thomas Carper (D-DE): Good, thanks. 2:18:10 Albert Bourla: 50% of the American people are in commercial plans and these rebate rules apply to Medicare. If the rules apply to all, definitely the list price will go down. 2:18:30 Albert Bourla: The list price is not irrelevant, it's very relevant for a lot of people because they have to pay list price during the deductible period. However if the rebate rule is applied, then they become irrelevant because the patients will not be paying the list price at the purchase point. 2:19:10 Sen. John Thune (R-SD): How would manufacturers respond if the rebate rule were finalized for government programs? I mean, what does that what does that mean for the commercial market? Albert Bourla: Senator, as I said before, all these proposals that they're discussing, [undistinguishable], eliminating the rebate rule, are transformational and will disrupt the way we do business. I don't know exactly how the system will evolve, and I really don't favor a bifurcated system. I would like to have a transparent single system across both parts. So we need to see how the whole thing will evolve. 2:25:26 Johnny Isakson (R-GA): Who sets the discount and who sets the rebate? 2:26:20 Richard Gonzalez: We negotiate with payers, so managed care and PBMs— Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA): You're a supplier though, so you have to go negotiate with the PBMs and those people, is that right? Richard Gonzalez: Correct, and they negotiate aggressively. Sen. Isakson: Is that pretty much true with everybody, that they're the major component between the end retail consumer price and the origin of the product? Richard Gonzalez: Yes, Senator. Sen. Isakson: Well, that seems like that's someplace we ought to focus, because that's where the distorted numbers come in. Johnson & Johnson, Janssen, in your testimony, you talked about your average list price of 8.1%, up, but an average net price change of only 4.6%. So while your gross went up 8.6, your net went down 4.6 In the same pricing period. How does that happen? If you're setting the price, how does it not go up on the bottom? Jennifer Taubert: Yeah, and in fact, in 2018, our net price actually declined 8.6%, so even more than that. The intermediaries in the system are very, very effective negotiators— Sen. Isakson: Tell me who the intermediaries are. Jennifer Taubert: Those would be the PBMs and the insurers. Sen. Isakson: …and the insurance companies? Jennifer Taubert: Right, and they set the formularies for patients. Sen. Isakson: And they're not the same. They're two different people? Jennifer Taubert: Yes, correct. 2:40:45 James Lankford (R-OK): All of you have mentioned the rebate issue has been a problem and that insurance companies and PBMs are very effective negotiators. Part of the challenge of this is, health insurance companies pay their PBM based on the quality of their negotiation skills, cutting a price off the list price. And so if a list price is higher and a rebate is higher, that also gives preference to them. So the difficulty is, as you raise list price, and the rebate gets larger, the insurance company gives that preference, making it harder for biosimilars. Am I tracking this correctly? 2:43:00 Albert Bourla: Here in the US, the penetration of biosimilars is much lower than in other places, but it is disproportional to different parts of the US healthcare system. For example, in open systems, systems where the decision maker it is a PBM, the one biosimilar we have has a market share of 5% in the US. In closed systems, in systems like Kaiser, for example, integrated healthcare systems where the one who decides has the whole cost of the healthcare system in its interest, we have 73%. 5% and 73% for the same product. I agree with what Mr. Fraser said that we need to create incentives, but I would add also that we need to break this rebate trap that creates significant disincentives for providers, and the healthcare system, and insurance companies. 3:19:25 Kenneth Frazier: If you went back a few years ago, when we negotiated to get our drugs on formulary, our goal was to have the lowest copay by patients. Today the goal is to pay into the supply chain the biggest rebate, and so that actually puts the patient at a disadvantage since they're the only ones that are paying a portion of the list price. The list price is actually working against the patient. 3:19:50 Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT): Why do we have a system today? Where you all are setting, I'll just say very, very high list prices, which is the starting point for negotiation. Why? Olivier Brandicourt: Senator, we're trying to get formulary position. With those list prices. High list price, high rebates. It's a preferred position. Unfortunately the preferred position doesn't automatically ensure affordability at the end. Kenneth C. Frazier: Senator, If you bring a product to the market with a low list price in this system, you get punished financially and you get no uptake because everyone in the supply chain makes money as a result of a higher list price. Drug Pricing in America: A Prescription for Change, Part III April 9, 2019 Senate Committee on Finance Witnesses: Steve Miller, MD, Former Executive Vice President and Chief Clinical Officer, Cigna Corporation Derica Rice, Former Executive Vice President and President, CVS Health and CVS Caremark William Fleming, Pharm.D., Segment President, Healthcare Services, Humana Inc. John Prince, Chief Executive Officer, OptumRx Mike Kolar, JD, Interim President & CEO, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, Prime Therapeutics LLC Clips Sen. Ron Wyden (D - OR): Pharmaceutical Benefit Managers first showed up decades ago, back when prescription drugs were being utilized more extensively. The PBMs told the insurance companies, “we're the ones who know drug pricing, we will handle the negotiations for you.” But there is little evidence that the pharmaceutical benefit managers have actually held down the prices in a meaningful way. In fact, most of the evidence shows just the opposite. Pharmaceutical Benefit Managers actually make more money when they pick a higher price drug over a lower price drug. Colleagues, let's remember that all the way through this discussion, benefit managers make more money when they pick a higher price drug over a lower price drug. The logic on this isn't exactly complicated, graduate-level economics. PBM profits are based on taking their slice of the prescription-drug pie. More expensive drugs means there's a bigger pie. When there's a bigger pie, [there are] bigger slices for the pharmaceutical benefit managers. 50:24 Mike Kolar: Rebates and the role they play have been key areas of focus in the drug cost debate. In our view, rebates are a powerful tool to offset high prices, which are set by pharmaceutical companies, and pharmaceutical companies alone. The fact that rebates are not offered on many of the highest cost drugs, and that studies show no correlation between prices and rebates underscore that rebates are a key to mitigating rather than causing high drug prices. We pass rebates through fully to our plans, and we believe our plans should be able to choose how to apply these rebates in ways that best serve their members and market needs by balancing premiums and cost sharing. 56:05 Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA): I'd like to talk about consolidation, including the recent integration of PBMs with insurance companies. Last year I wrote to the Justice Department on the issues, it reported that the three largest PBMs who are before us today now covers 71% of Medicaid, Medicare Part D enrollees and 86% of standalone Drug Plan enrollees. 57:45 Derica Rice: This is a highly competitive space. In addition to the three that you've pointed out here, CMS has noted there are over 60 PBMs across the US. Therefore, the competition, there's many options for the employers that are out there, government entities, as well as unions to choose from given their specific needs. 1:10:35 Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI): So when we look at Express Scripts has 100 million Americans covered, CVS 90 million, OptumRx 65 million, Prime Therapeutics 27 million, Humana 21 million, and yet Americans still pay the highest prices in the world. Even though you are negotiating for millions of people. The VA has its own pharmacy benefit manager service, they negotiate for 9 million veterans, and they pay, on average, 40% less for the same drugs that the rest of the healthcare system pays for. Despite greater volume, you are unable to secure these kinds of low prices. With all due respect, you guys are pretty bad negotiators. Given the fact that the VA can get 40% less. And so I'd like to know from each of you why that's the case. Dr. Miller? Steve Miller [Former EVP and Chief Clinical Officer, Cigna Corporation]: Yes. Part of the equation is giving patients choice. At the VA, they actually limit their formulary more than any of us at this table do. So oftentimes, they'll have one beta blocker, one ace inhibitor. And so if it's going to get to that level of choice, then we could get better prices also. Sen. Stabenow: Let me jump in, in the interest of time. I know you create nationwide drug formularies, you have pre-authorization, you give preferred status to certain medications. So you don't use any of those tools that the VA is using? Because you do. Steve Miller: We definitely use those tools, but we also give people choice. It's crucial for both physicians and patients to have the choice of the products they want to be able to access. Many of our plans want us to have broad formularies and when you have more products, it means you move less market share. Sen. Stabenow: So basically you're saying a 40% premium gives them more choice. 1:24:30 Sherrod Brown (D-OH): If the administration's rebate rule were finalized as proposed, would you in some way be required to change the way you do business? Mike Kolar: Yes, Senator we would. John Prince: Yes. William Fleming: Yes. Derica Rice: Yes. Steve Miller: Yes. Sen. Brown: Thank you. 1:25:05 Sherrod Brown (D-OH): What percentage of prescriptions that you fill across Part D actually receive a rebate? Roughly what percentage? Mike Kolar: So Senator, approximately 8% of the prescriptions that we cover in Part D are associated with a rebate. Sen. Brown: Okay, Mr. Prince? John Prince: Senator, I don't know the exact number, I know our overall business is about 7%. Sen. Brown: Okay, thank you. William Fleming: About 7-8%. Derica Rice: Senator, I do not know the exact number but we pass through 100% of all rebates and discounts. Sen. Brown: [Grunt] Steve Miller: 90% of the prescriptions will be generic. Of the 10% that are branded, about two-thirds have rebates. So it's about seven-- Sen. Brown: 7-8% like the others. Okay. To recap, PBMs do not set drug prices. Forcing you to change the way you do business -- as the administration's rule would — will not change that fact. And while the rule might impact a small percentage of drugs and Part D that receive a rebate, it does nothing to lower costs, as your answer suggests, for the other 90% of prescriptions you fill. Most importantly, absolutely nothing in the proposed rule would require Secretary Azar's former employer or any other pharma company to lower the price of insulin or any other drug. It's important to establish that, so thank you for that. 1:41:40 Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV): Let me ask you, Dr. Fleming, in your testimony, you say Humana's analysis of the rebate rule -- and we're talking about the administration's rebate rule now — found that approximately 17% of beneficiaries will see savings at the pharmacy counter as a result of this rule. Can you tell me a little bit more about who these people are? And what kind of conditions do they have? William Fleming: Senator, there will be a number of members who are taking brand drugs for which we get rebates and so it could vary all the way from the common chronic conditions, things like diabetes or hypertension or high cholesterol, all the way over to occasionally, not usually, but occasionally on the specialty drug side. When you think of some medications like treatments for rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, places where there's competition.

I would ask you to consider a somewhat differing viewpoint on the matter. What you say is indeed probably the most common view of the subject by most members of “Churchianity” but is it really what Scripture teaches? John 3:16 says “everyone who believes in Him shall not perish”. It doesn't say unbelievers will be endlessly tormented. They are the ones that “perish”. They go to destruction. In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul teaches we, in order to become Christians, must be clothed in immortality. Unless you are born again, you are a mere mortal. That is the default condition of all of humanity. Lost people have not been “clothed in immortality “. They die and all that they were ceases to exist. Their souls will not go on. “The Devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Revelation 20:10 HCSB To do anything endlessly, you must first live forever—lost people, the names not found in the book of life do not do so. The ones in endless suffering are listed above. Think about it— God is loving beyond our comprehension. He certainly would be just if He chose to, but does He even want to or need to torture those not chosen by Him to satisfy something in Him? I don't see it. “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him,.....” John 6:44 HCSB Everyone one He desires to save, gets saved. Period Does it even make sense that He would require endless torment for those incapable of turning to Him? If you actually read this, thank you. I enjoy the podcast a lot. Really appreciate your efforts and passion. Wish we could interact more easily. You really get my wheels turning sometime and I wish I could talk back! Lot of Scripture topics we could talk about for hours. Who knows? Maybe sometime it can happen. Thanks again brother, Now, go spend sometime with the Lord ;-) Curtis -- --- --- My Dear Brother, Curtis: I wish I could agree with your assessment. But, my reading of the Bible and my study of theology leads me to a different conclusion. Daniel 12:2 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. Matthew 25: 31-46 The Sheep and the Goats 31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.' 37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?' 40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' 44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' 45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' 46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.” Luke 16:19-31 The Rich Man and Lazarus 19 “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.' 25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.' 27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.' 29 “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.' 30 “‘No, father Abraham,' he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.' 31 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'” Mark 9: 42-50 - Causing to Stumble 42 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. 43 If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. [44] [b] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. [46] [c] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, 48 where “‘the worms that eat them do not die, and the fire is not quenched.'[d] 49 Everyone will be salted with fire. 50 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other.” Revelation 14:11 11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
