Nazi Collaborator George Soros Receives Presidential Medal of Freedom

George Soros admits to having no guilt for stealing property from Jews as they were sent to the death camps in WWII.

Jim Hoft

Joe Biden awarded the Presidential Medals of Freedom to George Soros in a ceremony on Saturday.

[…]

So who is George Soros?

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Soros and his works. He slipped into the US after World War II.

After the war, he was later questioned on ’60 Minutes’ about his ghastly work in Germany during the war collaborating with the Nazis and stealing from Jews on their way to the death camps.

And he held “no remorse” for his actions.

Here is Soros’s famous admission on ’60 Minutes’ in 1998.


Steve Kroft: You’re a Hungarian Jew who escaped the Holocaust by posing as a Christian. You watched lots of people get shipped off to the death camps.


George Soros: I was 14 years old, and I would say that that’s when my character was made.


Steve Kroft: In what way?


George Soros: That one should think ahead, one should understand and anticipate events. And one is threatened. It was a tremendous threat of evil. I mean, it was a very personal experience of evil.


Steve Kroft: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted god’s son. Yes. Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews. That’s right. Yes. That sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?


George Soros: Not at all. Maybe as a child, you don’t see the connection But it created no problem at all.


Steve Kroft: No feeling of guilt?


George Soros: No.


Steve Kroft: For example, I’m Jewish, and here I am watching these people go, I could just as easily be there. I I could be there. None of that.


George Soros: Well, of course, I could be on the other side, or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn’t be there because that was… Well, actually, funny way, it’s just like in markets that if I weren’t there, of course, I wasn’t doing it, but somebody else would be taking it away anyhow. Whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator. The property was being taken away. So I had no role in taking away that property. So I had no sense of guilt.

Real US History: When US Military in Washington DC Attacked and Killed US Veterans Denied WWI Compensation During Great Depression

by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

A period of U.S. history that I was never taught growing up and going through the U.S. educational system, is how the U.S. Government and the U.S. military treated U.S. war veterans who had fought during Word War I during the Great Depression.

Tens of thousands of U.S. veterans from World War I marched to Washington D.C. in 1932, to petition Congress to pay them their compensation for fighting in the War. A bill had been passed in 1924 to do just that, but they had to wait until 1945 to collect that “bonus”, or it could be paid earlier to their family as a death benefit if they died.

Many of them were homeless and destitute, like millions of other Americans, during the Great Depression in 1932.

They literally setup camp in areas around Washington D.C. that year, and their efforts saw some results when the House of Representatives passed a bill to pay them sooner than 1945.

But President Herbert Hoover threatened to veto the bill, and it was overwhelmingly defeated in the Senate.

When the war veterans did not go home, Hoover ordered to have the veterans removed from Washington D.C.

Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur, along with his assistant Major Dwight D. Eisenhower, usually revered as “heroes” in American history (Eisenhower went on to become President), proceeded to attack and kill some of these U.S. veterans to forcibly remove them from Washington D.C., calling them “communists”. (President Hoover was a “self-made” Wall Street millionaire and a Conservative Republican.)

Hoover lost his re-election bid a few months later, and was replaced by Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR).

I have produced a video that documents these events in 1932, including original film footage and photos, that is only 30 minutes long.

Lessons for Today from U.S. History

“Communist” World War I veterans marching in Washington D.C. in 1932. Source.

The dates and faces may change throughout American history, but some things really do not change at all.

First, the people in Washington D.C. who run the country do NOT serve the American people. They serve the interests of the Globalist Billionaires on Wall Street, and today also in Silicon Valley.

They have no moral problems with killing American citizens to achieve their goals of wealth and power, and it doesn’t matter which political office is currently in power.

We saw this in action most recently during the COVID Scam.

Secondly, they are able to continue on with these crimes against the citizens of the U.S. by dividing people into political groups, so that they always have around 50% of the country supporting them, because they are attacking the other half of the people in this country who belong to the opposing political party.

During the “Bonus Army” protests in D.C. in 1932, this country was able to observe something that is very rare in American history, and that was people from different groups, such as whites and blacks, which was very rare in 1932, overcome their differences to fight a common cause and against a common single enemy – Those ruling in Washington D.C.

And they did it peacefully, until the law enforcement and the U.S. military got involved. The violence originated with the U.S. Government.

Third, the members of the U.S. military take an oath to protect this country, and when you as a military soldier turn your weapons against other citizens of this country to appease the billionaires, you are ALWAYS WRONG.

Brave military personnel stood against the billionaires when they refused mandatory COVID-19 vaccines, and valued truth over their careers and pensions.

These are important principles to keep in mind here at the beginning of 2025, as one political party leaves office, and the other one takes over.

The incoming administration, Conservative Republicans, is already threatening to eliminate free speech on American university and college campuses, by eliminating any groups who oppose the actions of Israel, and if they can get away with it, they will most certainly try the same actions against the entire U.S. population.

The new administration is also already threatening to deploy the military onto American streets, and indeed this is already happening, such as in the subway system of New York City.

The only way to fight tyranny, is to understand who your real enemies are, and they are NOT your fellow citizens who believe differently from you.

Former US Special Operations Officer Visits Russian Frontline

Frontline Diary of An American Officer

Directed by Oleg Nekishev and Olga Kiriy

Film Review

Film link: https://en.rtdoc.tv/films/1031-frontline-diary-of-an-american-officer

This documentary follows Lieutenant Scott Bennett, whistleblower and former US Army Special Operations and Psychological Operations Officer (see  https://armypsyop.wixsite.com/shellgame) as he tours Donbas in late 2024.

In the city of Donetsk, he bears witness to the continuing attacks (since 2014*) by Ukrainian forces on local residents and (eg libraries, schools and apartment buildings) and interviews local women unable to leave the house without body armor. Some Ukrainian attacks on Donetsk civilians are personal, for example the girl who had her gut cut in a swastika shape after being raped, tortured and branded.

Bennett also participates in drills with Russian special forces defending Donbas civilians, visits injured Russian soldiers in the hospital and examines their weaponry and the American and European weapons collected from Ukrainian POWS.

The most interesting for me were interviews with a Ukrainian POW and Japanese and South Korean volunteers fighting for the Russian Federation.** The POW, claiming no one in Ukraine wants to join the fight against the Russians, asserts he was kidnapped off the street and sent to the front line. He also talks about draftees in his Azov Battalion agreeing to get Teutonic, Viking and Swastika tattoos after “drug inducement.”

The Japanese volunteer talks about his strong opposition to globalism and George Soros and the Russians being “our only” hope to halt that agenda. He has also seen German, Italian and Colombian volunteers fighting with the Russians.

*Ukrainian citizens in the Donbas region voted overwhelmingly (90%) to join the Russian Federation following the CIA coup in Kiev in 2014.

**All Russian soldiers serving in Donbas are also volunteers.

Sign Dr Peter McCullough’s petition urging Trump to pull dangerous COVID shots from the market

Featured Image

Petition link: https://lifepetitions.com/petition/remove-covid-jab

(LifeSiteNews) — Cardiologist and prominent COVID establishment critic Dr. Peter McCullough is calling on returning President Donald Trump to put a complete stop on the COVID-19 shots his previous administration approved once he returns to the White House, calling them both unnecessary and dangerous.

“The COVID-19 vaccine should be pulled from the market,” McCullough said Thursday, Just the News reports, citing cases of injury, disability, and even death. “They have not had the safety track record America wanted to see.”

“The viral infection [from COVID itself] is like the common cold now,” he added. “So they’re not clinically indicated. They’re not medically necessary. They should be removed from the market.”

McCullough has long warned that the COVID shots are dangerous and ineffective, based both on his own research and the work of others overlooked by the mainstream. In March, he lamented that both major presidential candidates were “completely, willfully blind to what’s happened to Americans” from the shots.

A large body of evidence backs his warnings about the COVID vaccines, which were developed and reviewed in a fraction of the time vaccines usually take under the first Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed initiative.

The federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports at least 38,068 deaths, 218,646 hospitalizations, 22,002 heart attacks, and 28,706 myocarditis and pericarditis cases as of October 25, among other ailments. U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) researchers have recognized a “high verification rate of reports of myocarditis to VAERS after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination,” leading to the conclusion that “under-reporting is more likely” than over-reporting.

An analysis of 99 million people across eight countries published February in the journal Vaccine “observed significantly higher risks of myocarditis following the first, second and third doses” of mRNA-based COVID shots, as well as signs of increased risk of “pericarditis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis,” and other “potential safety signals that require further investigation.” In April, the CDC was forced to release by court order 780,000 previously undisclosed reports of serious adverse reactions, and a study out of Japan found “statistically significant increases” in cancer deaths after third doses of mRNA-based COVID-19 jabs, and offered several theories for a causal link.

Yet Trump has consistently stood by the COVID shots, lamenting their unpopularity among his base and falsely insisting they saved millions of lives. When pressed on their performance in September, he granted, “I think they’re doing studies on the vaccines that we’re gonna find out. And it’ll come out one way or the other.”

Since then, observers have been looking hard for any clues they can find as to how the next Trump administration will handle the issue. Days before the election, Trump’s running mate and Vice President-elect JD Vance strongly criticized the COVID injections in an interview with podcaster Joe Rogan, but the conversation did not delve into what the administration’s policy will be.

Many have hoped that the addition of prominent vaccine opponent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to Trump’s campaign team would mark a shift, but while Trump has promised to give Kennedy broad discretion on health issues in his administration, so far his focus has instead been on issues such as fluoride and potentially harmful chemicals in food, and since the election, unconfirmed reports have emerged that some in the Trump camp are harboring cold feet about Kennedy’s comments about conventional vaccines.

During a recent interview with CNN, Trump’s presidential transition team co-chair Howard Lutnick said Kennedy would not have a formal agency position but would instead be given the necessary data to prove his suspicions. Lutnick also relayed how Kennedy convinced him that conventional vaccines cause autism, but did not discuss the Trump team’s current position on the COVID shots.

British Doctors Still Being Struck Off for Warning of mRNA Jab Dangers

Featured Image Malikov Aleksandr/ShutterstockFrank Wright

(LifeSiteNews) — British doctors continue to be removed from medical practice for warning patients of the dangers of the so-called mRNA COVID “vaccines.”

In December 2024, consultant psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Armstrong was struck off the medical register following his description of pharmaceutical companies as “evil.”

Armstrong had appeared in a video shared on BitChute in which he described the COVID regime and the attendant “vaccines” as part of a “deception on a grand scale” – saying the injections put people’s lives at risk. In the video, titled Navigating the Truth-Deception Duality, he said:

My message is clear to everyone: don’t take any more. You’ve a doctor here, he’s got his licence on the line – given it up. Don’t take any more of the injections. These guys are evil.

The tribunal which deprived Armstrong of his right to practice medicine concluded he was “highly likely in future to act so as to put patients at unwarranted risk of harm” – as the Daily Mail reported on January 2.

According to the minutes of the tribunal, an anonymous email alerted the General Medical Council to Armstrong’s video – which had been initially released on July 17, 2023.

The tribunal has found that Armstrong’s use of his medical credentials to warn the public of the dangers of the so-called vaccines is a violation of medical ethics, stating the physician had “undermined public health information and posed a serious risk to members of the public who may have placed reliance on his opinions.”

In addition:

The Tribunal found that Dr. Armstrong’s statements in the video about his medical colleagues was an attack on the medical profession as a whole.

Armstrong’s case demonstrates that despite mounting evidence that the “vaccines” are far from “100% safe and effective,” the lives of medical professionals continue to be ruined for saying so.

To say, as Armstrong does, that the public has been deceived is to state the obvious fact that the “vaccines” neither prevented infection nor transmission – as the authorities said they did. What is more, a range of adverse health conditions, including death, have been proven to have resulted from taking the experimental injections, heavily promoted by state-backed media, along with government and medical bodies worldwide.

Armstrong’s remarkable presentation presents the contrast between truth and deception. He argues that mass media has been used to create a sort of false reality, parallel to the truth. This, he says, produces the “duality” in the title of his video. Armstrong is explaining how the “huge agenda” behind the COVID “vaccines” and mandates makes use of mass media propaganda to present an alternate “reality” – in which taking experimental injections makes perfect sense.

He refers to evidence for his claims throughout his presentation, saying he is concerned with demonstrating the reality behind the “mass deception” taking place in service of the COVID regime.

Armstrong is far from alone in making such a bold claim. As LifeSiteNews has reported, British academic Dr. David A. Hughes has published a comprehensive account of the COVID regime – which he says was the opening campaign in an “omniwar” to replace our way of life with a “permanent bio-digital tyranny.”

Hughes took three years to complete the detailed research behind his book, “Covid-19” – Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy, which he has released to readers free of charge.

Hughes has left his academic career as a result of his findings. As with Armstrong, Hughes was faced with a decision to speak the truth and risk his livelihood – or keep silent and “stay safe.”

Such cases demonstrate the cost of integrity in professional life today. Medical practitioners like Armstrong still face ruin if they take seriously their Hippocratic oath to “first, do no harm.” As with Hughes, the loss of a secure and tenured career is the price paid for the publication of the truth, regardless of personal consequence.

These facts explain, in part, why so few professionals have spoken out against a dubious regime of fear, propaganda, and public harm. To remain faithful to the truth, and to serve the public interest rather than that of vested interests, has been shown to be extremely damaging.

Along with heart conditions, blood clots, sudden deaths, the enormous transfer of wealth from working people to billionaires and corporations, and the lasting damage done to small businesses and communities, the COVID-19 regime produced a climate of fear.

This is not only a factor in mass deception – as Armstrong argued – but is a form of psychological warfare, as is evidenced in Hughes’ book.

These operations were not confined to terrorizing the public through propaganda. An organized online campaign of psychological warfare has been directed against COVID regime critics in the U.K.

U.K-based Big Brother Watch published a report in February 2023 showing that British Military Intelligence units had been involved in online “counter-disinformation” operations, targeting critics of the COVID regime:

Big Brother Watch’s investigation identified a number of MPs, journalists, top academics and campaigners whose social media posts had been monitored and logged in secret reports.

The then-U.K. Defence Secretary, Ben Wallace, admitted that the army’s secretive 77th Brigade (intelligence) unit had been covertly spying on British citizens – despite assurances in the past that they “do not, and have never, conducted any kind of action against British citizens” and that “all work is internationally focused.”

Big Brother Watch interviewed a whistleblower from the 77th Brigade whose revelations prompted the admission in Parliament that military intelligence units were monitoring Britons expressing “views critical of the government’s handling of the pandemic.”

The Army Intelligence unit is also linked to an online harassment group known as “The Mutton Crew,” whose activities have been documented in a report by an anonymous journalist known only as “John,” author of a Substack called The Sentiment Inspector.

In a report on the Mutton Crew, “John” documents a history of “the Dark Forces Behind Social Media Manipulation” in Britain reaching back to 2011.

As “John” reports that, “[b]y 2019, they were running thousands of fake social media accounts across platforms like Facebook, X (Twitter), Instagram, and Reddit.”

John explains that “the crew’s tactics were sophisticated, using well-coordinated campaigns of harassment, misinformation, and threats.”

“They didn’t just attack individuals – they aimed to destroy careers, reputations, and lives.”

In a separate report on the Army’s 77th Brigade, “John” explains his need to maintain anonymity, as he documents his conversations with whistleblowers claiming that the Mutton Crew operate in tandem with British Military Intelligence.

These claims about The Mutton Crew are buttressed by another anonymous source, the U.S.-based medical practitioner ArkMedic – who published a report on the Crew in September 2022 claiming “They are part of the disinformation arm of the British Army.”

“Arkmedic” – who is cited in a recommendation for the Nobel Peace Prize published by France Soir – explained:

Having been a recipient of the treatment that the “Mutton Crew” dish out to people who disagree with them (or with the government’s propaganda on COVID or the COVID vaccines), I can safely attest that the mutton swarm invariably descends on anybody that does not toe the party line.

Given the extent and purpose of their operations, it is possible that the anonymous tipoff received by the British General Medical Council that resulted in the end of Dr. Armstrong’s medical career was sent by a member of the Mutton Crew.

UN Sustainable Development Goals Translated

by Helen Alice Springs

Dutch journalist Eva Vlaardingerbroek explains in this short video, what lies behind the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Gim Huay Neo, Managing Director of the World Economic Forum, explains here, that

“Today carbon pricing, each year carbon taxes already cover about 25% of global emissions. We should actually look at scaling this, to cover all, 100% of carbon emissions. And beyond carbon, let’s think about other aspects of nature, that are easier to quantify. We probably will not be able to quantify everything on Day 1, but what about water? That’s also quite possible for us to start integrating, systematically, into current trading carbon pricing mechanisms“.

Nature offers an infinite source of profit. Get ready to pay for it all. OR help stop it. They can only pull this off if we comply.

Researchers find microplastics exposure greatly increases risk of infertility, colon cancer and poor lung function

Researchers find microplastics exposure greatly increases risk of infertility, colon cancer and poor lung function

Dr Eddy Betterman

A study has found a strong connection between exposure to microplastics and health problems such as infertility, colon cancer and poor lung function after reviewing 3,000 studies.Microplastics are present in air, water, food and human bodies, including crucial organs like the brain and placenta. They can enter the body via inhalation, ingestion and other means.Once inside the body, microplastics can remain for a long time and damage organs and tissues, leading to an increased risk of reproductive health issues, digestive system damage that may lead to colon cancer and chronic lung inflammation that may increase the risk of lung cancer and other respiratory diseases.With plastic production set to triple by 2060, researchers stress the need for immediate policy changes and personal actions to limit microplastic exposure and protect human and planetary health.Individuals are advised to minimize exposure by reducing plastics use at home, such as by using reusable bags, choosing glass or stainless steel containers for storing food and supporting policies that limit single-use plastics.

Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have confirmed that exposure to microplastics has a strong link to a range of serious illnesses, including infertility, colon cancer and poor lung function.

The researchers reviewed around 3,000 studies that have linked microplastics exposure to these health issues.

Microplastics are, in essence, tiny particles of plastic. When they enter the body through inhalation, ingestion or other means they can get stuck in tissues and even make their way into the bloodstream. (Related: People are now consuming a credit card’s worth of microplastics every week from tainted food supply; gut composition being drastically altered.)

When these microplastics remain in the body – which they can do for a long time – the body’s immune system recognizes them as foreign invaders and responds by setting off a cascade of inflammation. If this inflammation fails to dislodge the microplastics, it can lead to chronic inflammation that can harm various organs and tissues, leading to long-term damage and a host of health issues.

One of the most concerning findings of the study is the link between microplastics and reproductive health. Both men and women are at risk.

For men, these tiny particles can disrupt the hormonal balance essential for healthy sperm production, potentially leading to decreased sperm count and quality. In women, exposure can affect ovarian function and the development of the placenta, impacting pregnancy outcomes. The research even discovered a connection between microplastics in a woman’s placenta and low birth weight.

The study also highlights the danger microplastics pose to the digestive system. When these particles enter the colon, they can damage the protective mucus layer, paving the way for potential tumor development. The researchers suspect that microplastics may play a role in the development of colon cancer.

Microplastics also pose a great danger to respiratory health. When these particles are inhaled, they can settle in the lungs, causing chronic inflammation and injury. Over time, this can greatly reduce lung function and increase the risk of respiratory diseases such as lung cancer.

Researchers call for policy changes to limit microplastics exposure

With more than 460 million metric tons of plastic produced annually and production expected to triple by 2060, the implications of this research are daunting. The study’s authors stress the urgent need for regulatory agencies and policy makers to take action to reduce microplastic exposure and mitigate its health impacts.

“We urge regulatory agencies and policy leaders to consider the growing evidence of health harms from microplastics, including colon and lung cancer,” said Nicholas Chartres of UCSF’s Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment and the study’s first author.

Bernie Sanders confronts Musk on Indian immigrants

The US senator slammed the tycoon over his defense of H-1B visas, arguing they help replace Americans with low-wage foreign workers

US Senator Bernie Sanders has taken a swipe at Elon Musk over his defense of the H-1B immigration program, arguing that it only helps enrich billionaires who rely on cheap foreign labor while undermining ordinary Americans.

The H-1B visa program allows US companies to employ foreign workers in fields requiring advanced skills in fields such as technology, engineering, and medicine. It has been described as the only significant channel for foreign graduates to enter the US workforce, with the vast majority of approved petitions going to Indian nationals in recent years.

Both Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who US President-elect Donald Trump picked to lead his proposed ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ initiative (DOGE), have spoken out in support of the program. Musk, reportedly a former H-1B recipient, suggested that this type of visa “made America strong” by attracting foreign talent, while vowing to “go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend.”

Musk’s critics say the H-1B program has been of great benefit to his own companies – Tesla and SpaceX – as well as other big US corporations.

Writing on X on Thursday, Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist, joined the critics.

“Elon Musk is wrong. The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire ‘the best and the brightest,’ but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad. The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make,” he wrote.

Sanders noted that from 2022 to 2023, the top 30 largest US companies using the program hired over 34,000 new employees under H-1B, while laying off at least 85,000 American workers.

“The H-1B program must be ended. Bottom line. It should never be cheaper for a corporation to hire a guest worker from overseas than an American worker,” he said.

In 2016, Trump, who is known for his hardline stance on immigration, called the scheme “very unfair” to American workers and said it should be ended.

In late December, however, Trump appeared to have changed his mind and expressed support for the program.

“I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program,” he said. Asked about the apparent flip-flop, Trump denied that he ever changed his mind, the New York Times reported.

Some of Trump’s biggest supporters, however, are critical of H-1B. Steve Bannon, a former White House chief strategist under Trump, called the program a “scam” that benefits “Silicon Valley’s sociopathic overlords.”

Bird Flu ‘Fearmongering’ as CDC Finds ‘No Evidence’ of Human-to-Human Transmission

Lumen News

‘No evidence’ of human-to-human transmission of bird flu (H5N1) has been identified, says a new study funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and published Tuesday at the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).

The study concluded:

In the cases identified to date, A(H5N1) viruses generally caused mild illness, mostly conjunctivitis, of short duration, predominantly in U.S. adults exposed to infected animals; most patients received prompt antiviral treatment. No evidence of human-to-human A(H5N1) transmission was identified. PPE use among occupationally exposed persons was suboptimal, which suggests that additional strategies are needed to reduce exposure risk. (Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.)

“All the case patients who were exposed to infected poultry were involved in depopulation activities,” CDC also reports.

Harvey Risch, M.D., professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health and Yale School of Medicine, told Lumen-News the CDC study “shows that the human bird flu cases that have occurred to date are essentially in people with workplace exposures to infected animals.”

Risch, the chief epidemiologist for The Wellness Company, also said:

These cases have generally been mild and treatable. There has been no secondary spread from them. Thus, the public fearmongering statements various people have been making must have some other motivation or incentive rather than pretending to be informative.

The “fearmongering” has indeed been ramping up.

On December 18, Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency over the H5N1 bird flu having been detected in dairy cows in southern California.

“[N]o person-to-person spread of Bird Flu has been detected in California and nearly all infected individuals had exposure to infected cattle,” the declaration also stated.

Since then, egg prices have soared to nearly $9.00 per dozen in the state, a 70% increase since November.

“According to the USDA, the sharp increase in price is due to nine confirmed cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) across the state in December 2024 alone, which led to the depopulation of almost six million layers,” reported WATTPoultry, which provides news and analysis for the global poultry industry.

In a recent Substack column, scientist, physician, and vaccine expert Robert Malone, M.D. laid out what may happen as the federal government gears up for a bird flu pandemic:

It seems pretty obvious that the government is gearing up to encourage or even mandate poultry, dairy farmers as well as their workers, and maybe even cattle ranchers to be vaccinated. Of course, all hospital and medical care professionals will be mandated to comply. The elderly and immunocompromised will also be encouraged to vaccinate against the HIGHLY PATHOGENIC (to birds…) avian flu.

Malone warns the federal government is likely to begin stockpiling its “vaccines” to be given free of charge to those who qualify.

“Next will be the requirement for all lactating cattle crossing state borders to be vaccinated,” he anticipates. “The USDA will track down as many small farmers and milk producers as possible so that the proper registration/ear tagging of cattle occurs.”

Malone urges Americans to prepare for mass vaccination of food animals:

If you don’t want to buy meat or drink milk from cattle vaccinated with an mRNA “vaccine,” it is prudent to locate a local supplier now. When the government rolls out these programs, you likely will be scrambling – if you don’t have clean sources for your food now.

“As the government throws money at these new vaccines, there is no evidence that it will stop the transmission or even spread of this virus in cattle or people,” he asserts, adding that Big Agriculture’s “factory farming” is the crux of the problem. Bird flu and the fearmongering that revs up hysteria actually benefits mega-farms:

As of July 2024, over 100 million chickens and turkeys have been culled in the United States alone since the outbreak began in 2022, estimates are that this has cost the US taxpayer almost one billion dollars. The problem is that modern chicken factories house 20,000 to 40,000 chickens each. They are little mutant virus factories.

“This all costs money, requires many bull sh*t jobs, and will make our milk, meat and eggs more expensive,” Malone warns. “Furthermore, locally sourced products will become more challenging to obtain. Maybe this is by design.”

Among those stoking fear of human bird flu cases is former Baltimore health official and ex-Planned Parenthood CEO Leana Wen, M.D., who frequently served as a COVID-19 “expert” in left-leaning news outlets.

Joe Biden should be rapidly instituting a testing protocol and getting a bird flu vaccine approved quickly before Donald Trump is inaugurated, Wen urged on CBS’ Face the Nation on Sunday, citing an avian flu “mortality rate” of 52% based on historical data.

[Ed. The 52% mortality rate is misleading. It actually represents the death rate of European patients admitted to hospital for H5N1 pneumonia – not the death rate of patients infected with H5N1 – see https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(24)00460-2/fulltext. In the US the current death rate from H5N1 infection is 0%. See Dr Malone’s comment below.]

“We should be having rapid tests, home tests, available to all farm workers, to their families, for the clinicians taking care of them, so that we aren’t waiting for public labs and CDC labs to tell us what’s bird flu or not,” Wen urged alarmingly.

“And the second very important thing is this is not like the beginning of COVID, where we were dealing with a new virus, we didn’t have a vaccine,” she added. “There actually is a vaccine developed already against H5N1. The Biden administration has contracted with manufacturers to make almost 5 million doses of the vaccine. However, they have not asked the FDA to authorize the vaccine.”

“They could get this authorized now, and also get the vaccine out so – and to farm workers and to vulnerable people,” she pressed. “I think that’s the right approach because we don’t know what the Trump administration is going to be doing around bird flu. If they have people coming in with anti-vaccine stances, could they hold up vaccine authorization?”

As Lumen-News reported in January 2023, Wen admitted in her column at the Washington Post that hospitals had been “overcounting COVID deaths and hospitalizations,” a statement to which Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Trump’s nominee to run the Department of Health and Human Services, responded on X, “A year ago, this was a conspiracy theory that would get you censored…”

Despite her very late admission, Wen still insisted there was “no truth to the conspiracy theory that hospitals are trying to exaggerate coronavirus numbers for some nefarious purpose.”

As the report observed, however, in May 2020, Fox News had already noted economic assessments revealed hospitals throughout the country had been receiving more federal funds to treat Medicare patients diagnosed with, or presumed to have become infected with, COVID-19. Additionally:

Dr. Summer McGee, dean of the School of Health Sciences at the University of New Haven, also told Fox News the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act “authorized a temporary 20 percent increase in reimbursements from Medicare for COVID-19 patients to account for both anticipated and unanticipated increases in the cost of care for these medically complex patients.”

In July 2021, Wen revealed her deep disdain for Americans who chose not to get the shots.

“Frankly, we know that we can’t trust the unvaccinated,” she told Democracy Now, accusing unvaxxed Americans of “walking around without masks and, in fact, that’s what led to the surge that we’re seeing.”

Of course, many studies had already been performed at that point that demonstrated masks were ineffective at preventing transmission of the virus.

Several months later, Wen’s full embrace of mandatory masks and COVID shots for all Americans drew a barrage of criticism.

“There are privileges associated with being an American,” she told CNN. “That if you wish to have these privileges, you need to get vaccinated. Travel, and having the right to travel in our state, it’s not a constitutional right as far as I know to board a plane.”

Wen even suggested life needs to be “hard” for Americans who refused the COVID shots:

“Generally, the currently circulating avian influenza strain in the US does not include any cases of human-to-human transmission,” Malone also affirmed Tuesday as he wrote about the “current bird flu ‘psyop.’”

“And the current mortality, with over 60 cases identified, is 0%. NOT 50%,” he asserted, adding:

“This “pandemic” is nothing more than an artifact of their newly developed protocols to test cattle, poultry, pets, people, and wildlife on a massive scale for avian influenza. In years past, this was not even considered. In the past, the USG did fund a massive testing and surveillance program called “Biowatch”. That program was a colossal failure and a massive waste of money. Billions of dollars.”
