CDC’s New ‘Wild to Mild’ Ad Campaign Hypes Flu Vaccines for Kids, Pregnant Women

Guest Post by John-Michael Dumais

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is launching a campaign called “Wild to Mild” to encourage flu vaccination among children and pregnant women, despite long-observed ineffectiveness and safety concerns.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this week launched a new “Wild to Mild” ad campaign to “tame skepticism about flu vaccines,” CNN Health reported.

The campaign, which will run on the radio and social media platforms starting this week, targets pregnant women and parents of young children “because vaccination rates are down in both of those high-risk groups,” said CNN.

Experts who spoke with The Defender, however, questioned the efficacy of flu vaccines and cautioned about their potential harms.

The CDC ads feature cute animal images, including one that depicts a tiger (“a ferocious animal”) and a kitten (“something that’s not scary”) designed to promote the idea that the flu vaccine, rather than preventing influenza altogether, will inhibit severe symptoms and yield a milder course of the illness.

Britain To Imprison People For Not Complying with Net Zero

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

It is time we understand that the climate change agenda and COVID have been adopted for a single reason. The governments can no longer kick the can down the road regarding debt. The current monetary system is unsustainable. As a result, they will default on their national debts, which will wipe out pensions. These measures are to use their power under the pretense of some bogus issue to justify tyrannical suppression. They refuse to reform, so as a result – they will dig their heels in and sweep all our rights away for our good to protect our health and save the planet of which it is a race to see which one they care the less about since they are both fake.

American Insouciance Is Institutionalizing Tyranny

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Many might be tired of the vax controversy.  Those of you who are influenced by the claim that the medical scientists who have concluded that the Covid “vaccine” is dangerous are conspiracy theorists spreading misinformation and must be silenced need to look at the powerful evidence provided by independent scientists who are not on Big Pharma’s payroll or grants list.

Otherwise, if you are still unaffected by being vaxxed, most likely because you received a placebo–after all, if they killed everyone jabbed the plot would become obvious and fail–you might be a victim of a second round.

In 2 years, Moms for Liberty has gained 120,000 members as mama bears wake up to the dangers of the woke mind virus

Via Not the Bee

Something has happened since 2021 and it’s a clear sign of the times.

Starting with the Glenn Youngkin campaign in Virginia, there has been an awakening of moms across the country who object to wokeness in the classroom and the way schools are teaching kids about LGBT issues.

Moms for Liberty, which has been wildly mischaracterized by the press, is a nationwide group of moms who are tired of seeing woke radicals take away parental rights.

And, in just two years, their numbers have skyrocketed.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is 83-years-old, announced on Friday that she’ll run for reelection to another term in Congress, as Democrats attempt to win back the majority in 2024.

Pelosi made the announcement while speaking to labor allies in the San Francisco area district she’s represented for more than 35 years.

“Now more than ever our City needs us to advance San Francisco values and further our recovery,” Pelosi also said in a tweet. “Our country needs America to show the world that our flag is still there, with liberty and justice for ALL. That is why I am running for reelection — and respectfully ask for your vote.”

Owning Things . . . to Avoid Being Owned

Guest Post by Eric Peters

The WEF crowd says that in the future, you will own nothing and they will be very happy. Of course, they do not say it exactly that way. But it’s implied by what they do say. If you own nothing, then they will own everything.

Including, naturally, you.

And this prospect makes them happiest of all.

A person who owns nothing is by definition owned. He is someone who must ask permission to use things owned by others – who do own them – and who (by dint of being the owner) can lay down terms and conditions of use. These are not always insufferable or degrading. But they are subordinating, in that you must do as the owners say.

Is the U.S. Credit Downgrade Good for Gold?

From Peter Reagan at Birch Gold Group

This week, Your News to Know rounds up the latest top stories involving gold and the overall economy. Stories include: U.S. credit rating and de-dollarization, China boosts official gold reserves for 9th consecutive month, and South Africa’s gold mines are under heavy stress.

What does the U.S. credit downgrade mean for the dollar, and for gold?

This recent analysis of the Fitch downgrade of U.S. credit neglects a few key points. This most recent episode was neither the first time the U.S. debt ceiling was raised after a Congressional circus. Nor was it the first time the nation’s credit rating suffered. While debt ceiling standoffs have become business-as-usual in Washington, it’s useful to reflect on the previous downgrade.

The last U.S. credit downgrade happened by 2011, courtesy of Standard and Poors (also known as S&P). This was the first credit downgrade in U.S. history, at the tail end of a global financial crisis. In case you’ve forgotten, although the crisis was indeed global, the U.S. took center stage.

Lead Author of Cochrane Mask Review Responds to Fauci’s Dismissal of Evidence

Guest Post by

Former chief medical advisor to the US President Anthony Fauci was questioned over the weekend by CNN reporter Michael Smerconish, about face masks being able to curb the spread of covid-19.

“There’s no doubt that masks work,” said Fauci.

“Different studies give different percentages of advantage of wearing it, but there’s no doubt that the weight of the studies … indicate the benefit of wearing masks,” he added.

Smerconish brought up the 2023 Cochrane review which found no evidence that physical interventions like face masks could stop viral transmission in the community and cited my interview with lead author of the study Tom Jefferson who confirmed, “There is just no evidence that they [masks] make any difference. Full stop.”

Fauci replied, “Yeah but there are other studies,” stressing that masks work on an individual basis.

“When you’re talking about the effect on the epidemic or the pandemic as a whole, the data are less strong…but when you talk about an individual basis of someone protecting themselves or protecting themselves from spreading it to others, there’s no doubt that there are many studies that show there is an advantage,” said Fauci.

Professor Tom Jefferson, who says he is committed to updating the Cochrane review as new evidence emerges, has responded to Fauci’s comments.

“Complicit In A Major Act Of Conflict Escalation” – Musk Denies CNN’s Inflammatory War-Meddling Accusations

Via ZeroHedge

Since Elon Musk has apparently become Donald Trump – in that any lie/twist/gaslighting will do to further the narrative, no matter how false it is known to be – last night saw the mainstream media overwhelmed with circle-jerk-justified accusations that Musk meddled in the Ukraine-Russia war to stop a Zelenskyy-driven offensive (that likely would have turned the war and hailed victory ticker-tape parades up and down Kiev’s streets).

Ok, admittedly that last bit was out hyperbole; but given a quick read of headlines from CNN and NBC, we could be forgiven for this view.

Elon Musk secretly ordered his engineers to turn off his company’s Starlink satellite communications network near the Crimean coast last year to disrupt a Ukrainian sneak attack on the Russian naval fleet, according to an excerpt adapted from Walter Isaacson’s new biography of the eccentric billionaire titled “Elon Musk.”

As Ukrainian submarine drones strapped with explosives approached the Russian fleet, they “lost connectivity and washed ashore harmlessly,” Isaacson writes.

NBC led with the following headline: Ukraine is furious with Elon Musk for thwarting an attack on Russia’s navy

A Theory of the Game

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

“…a system that has been hollowed out by a string of cascading failures runs into one more crisis than it can tolerate, and implodes under the weight of its own absurdities. We are much closer to such scenes in North America and Western Europe right now than I think most people realize.” —John Michael Greer

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 loss was a bigger shock to the Washington DC deep state Blob than Donald Trump’s victory. But the dynamics of this trauma operated at many levels. At the most superficial level was the hysterical response of Democratic Party rank-and-file women who regarded Donald Trump as the most extreme and horrifying embodiment of an archetypal “bad daddy.” This was all sheer psychodrama of course, but women are engrossed with psychodrama — generating it and relishing it — which men often fail to appreciate.
