Maternal-fetal medicine specialist Dr. James Thorp discussed newly revealed text messages involving Dr. Anthony Fauci and concerns about COVID shots in pregnancy. Thorp, who has long spoken out on the topic and published related research, framed the messages as evidence that officials recognized early risks yet proceeded with aggressive promotion to pregnant women.

Thorp noted that pregnancy is highly sensitive to inflammation, whic...

Dr. My Le Trinh, a general practitioner in Sydney with more than 27 years in practice, faced an abrupt and prolonged professional crisis beginning September 27, 2021.

One originated from a junior doctor at a hospital concerning a COVID patient Trinh had treated remot...

Conducted from Japan, where McCairn and colleagues treat patients, the conversation highlights the debilitating effects of vaccine-induced amyloid formation and a novel therapeutic approach offering dramatic recoveries.

McCairn, who has treated approximately 25 patients, describes vaccine injuries linked to abn...

Since the rollout of COVID shots in 2021, embalmers worldwide have reported a startling new phenomenon: unusual white, fibrous clots unlike any seen in decades of practice. These rubbery, calamari-like structures, often solid and stretchy, have appeared in 20-30% of corpses according to multiple surveys, primarily in individuals who received mRNA vaccines. Retired U.S. Air Force Major Tom Haviland, a data analyst and engineer, has ...

Dr. Terri DeNeui, DNP, APRN, ACNP-BC, founder of Evexias and a leading expert in peptide and hormone therapies, discusses regulatory challenges with peptides and the importance of clinical supervision. Insulin and GLP-1 agonists are peptides with an established role in medicine. Now we are seeing broader applications of peptides used for inflammation, autoimmune conditions, muscle preservation, sleep, and tissue repair.

The rollout of modified mRNA COVID-19 shots raises profound questions about long-term safety, including their potential persistence in the body and impact on the blood supply. Many individuals, particularly those unvaccinated or concerned about adverse reactions, now seek greater control over blood transfusions during planned surgeries or emergencies. Organizations like Safe Blood address this by matching recipients with donors who...

In the darkest days of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Ron Elfenbein emerged as a true American hero. An emergency medicine physician and operator of Maryland’s largest monoclonal antibody infusion network, he treated more than 100,000 patients across eight sites with the most effective treatment we had for COVID. Patients arrived on death’s door; within hours, many were dramatically improved. Dr. Elfenbein scaled his practi...

As a trained anesthesiologist and pain medicine specialist, Dr. Heidi Klessig had a pivotal experience as a resident that shattered her assumptions about the definition of brain death and organ harvesting. During night call, Dr. Klessig was assigned to anesthetize a young man declared brain dead after a motorcycle accident for organ procurement. She expected a corpse-like patient but found him warm, pink, with stable vital signs an...

Dr. Mollie James, a board-certified surgeon and critical care specialist, treated critically ill patients during the height of the pandemic, often facing ethical dilemmas when standard treatments were restricted. Her refusal to receive the COVID shot and her commitment to providing what she believed was the best available care led to her dismissal from three ICUs during the Delta wave. Rather than retreating, Dr. James founded The ...

Three days ago, the chief law enforcement officer of Texas broke rank and rebuked a state agency it would normally defend. Fighting the Texas Medical Board the past four years has felt like a major endeavor in futility, but thanks to recent actions by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the finish line is finally within sight.

In December, the Texas Medical Board issued a public reprimand against me for sending a nurse to Texas Hugu...

In 2022, Kayla Pollack, a Canadian mother, received the COVID shot under pressure to visit her dying father in long-term care. What followed was a life-altering ordeal that exposed deep flaws in Canada’s healthcare system and vaccine compensation programs. Initially experiencing leg weakness, Pollack awoke one morning paralyzed from the neck down. Diagnosed with transverse myelitis—an autoimmune reaction linked to the v...

The case of Kenlee, a seven-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis, has drawn significant attention due to concerns over parental rights and medical autonomy. In March 2024, Florida’s Department of Children and Families (DCF) removed the then-five-year-old from her mother, Joy Zuraff, following a disagreement over treatment. Joy had been managing Kenlee’s condition effectively with established medications and therapies, mai...

If there’s one thing COVID taught me, it’s that the system—Big Pharma, governments, and even medical boards—will do anything to protect their narrative, even if it means crushing families like Dan Hartman’s. Dan’s son, Sean, was a vibrant 17-year-old hockey star, a sweet kid who hated needles but got coerced into taking the Pfizer shot just to play the game he loved. Four days later, he was rushe...

The pandemic is over, but mandates are not. Attorney and founder of We the Patriots USA Brian Festa argues that significant threats persist, particularly in states that have eliminated religious exemptions for childhood vaccinations.

The documentary An Inconvenient Study, produced by Del Bigtree and the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), centers on an unpublished retrospective birth cohort study conducted by researchers at Henry Ford Health System, led by Dr. Marcus Zervos, head of infectious diseases. Completed around 2020, the study compared health outcomes in vaccinated and unvaccinated children using existing medical records from the institution, which...

The pandemic exposed deep fissures in America’s legal framework for protecting individual rights in biomedical research. Hospitals and governments imposed “jab or job” mandates for unlicensed COVID shots, violating long-standing federal protections. These mandates, exemplified by cases against Houston Methodist and Shriners Hospital, highlight a troubling judicial trend: courts ignoring contractual obligations and...

In 2021, Houston Methodist Hospital became the first major U.S. healthcare system to mandate COVID-19 vaccines, first for employees and then for physicians with hospital privileges. This policy sparked significant controversy, particularly among independent physicians who viewed it as an overreach into their professional autonomy. Dr. Venu Julapalli, a gastroenterologist who had privileges at Houston Methodist Woodlands, emerged as...

In the shadow of the pandemic, stories like Lindsey’s reveal a devastating undercurrent of injury and resilience. As a dedicated nurse, Lindsey received her first two Moderna doses in late 2020, experiencing typical side effects like body aches, fever, and fainting. Pressured by her workplace, she got a Pfizer booster, and tragically, this third shot triggered a cascade of unrelenting symptoms, marking her four-year “an...
