DMED Interview Released Seven Months Later
The Wars of the DoD

On June 3 2022 I was interviewed about the results of my DMED analysis by one of the three military health database whistleblowers, Sam Sigoloff.

It wasn't a perfect interview, but it was a revealing one. There are a lot of cuts, and it's been long enough that I don't know if anything was lost or changed in primary meaning (but it seems fine). I do know, however, that we discussed the DMED analysis as I presented it and as potentially the greatest fraud in the history of the world, and the greatest treason.

Nobody heard that for seven months.

The interview was released last week, a bit over seven months later. During that time, the old DMED system was removed, and the Died Suddenly documentary came out. No FOIAs were filed by any lawyers to get to the bottom of the DMED manipulations, so far as I know, though several told me that they would.

October 3, 2022

‘As many of you know, I have advocated publicly for seven cadets who were recently discharged from the USCGA for failing to comply with DOD’s vaccine mandate. Each had applied for, and had been denied, a religious exemption. I have been publicly rebuked, harshly, for doing so. This letter will explain the facts and circumstances underlying my actions.

I am not now, nor have I ever been, anti-vaccine. I took both shots and advised a number of officers and enlisted members who sought my counsel to do the same. I find no fault in the decisions made by operational commanders at the height of the pandemic who judged it necessary to make the vaccine mandatory. I would have done likewise. But, as with any new disease, with time, scientific understanding has markedly increased, treatments for those infected have been developed, and the effects on both the general population and specific cohorts of the population are better known and predictable. Unquestionably, the risks of prolonged and severe disease, and of adverse outcomes, are now reduced, particularly for those of military age and who are otherwise healthy.

The American people have moved on. The President himself has declared “the Pandemic is over.” Yet, we continue with an outdated mandate and to purge good people, even though we struggle to meet our recruiting goals. The legality of the order itself is under significant scrutiny, with at least three federal injunctions in place. The CDC just issued new guidance that advises that the vaccinated and the unvaccinated need not be treated differently.

It’s time to pause and reevaluate whether, for some demographics at least, the cure has become worse than the (diminishing) disease, and, in the case of the military’s mandate, whether material violations of law have occurred. Science has rapidly moved forward, but DOD inexplicably is not keeping up. Vaccine protocols, in practice, require demographic stratification in order to keep up with the science, particularly where the risk-benefit analysis necessarily depends on demographic considerations.

Bringing this issue into the public domain is not easy for me, for I’m keenly aware that I may appear to some to be the dissident in a club that expects blind loyalty and whose rules require that retired Flag Officers go home and shut up, leaving the service in the capable hands of those behind us. That was my plan. But I am not blind, and there comes a time when prior leaders should question, and seek accountability of, those responsible for maintaining the core values and culture put in place by the chiefs and officers who preceded them. I believe now is such a time.

The men and women in the bowels of the ship are becoming uncomfortable. Trust is eroding as our sailors question the motives and judgment of those who, despite the evidence, are sticking to a mandate that is no longer necessary; who have resorted to apparently unlawful measures to continue enforcing it; who have embraced a culture with ideologies antithetical to unit cohesion; that divides people into identity groups; and that promotes the acceptance – without question - of flags and symbols that may be offensive to men and women of faith. They have no voice. There is shoal water ahead, and the ship’s bridge isn’t listening to the lookouts on the fo'c'sle.’

I'm pretty sure there were a lot more that were "cleaned up" when we heard how they had to "maintain" the database after the initial stats came out.

A common soldier cannot determine who is a "domestic enemy of the Constitution." That is for civilian judges to decide. One soldier could decide that "abortion" is a constitutional right, and this take aim at any lawmaker who supports a law outlawing the "right to choose." Another soldier may decide that the Department of Energy and any other Department that is not specifically mentioned in the Constitution is a violation of the 10th Amendment and take out said department heads. It is bad enough that soldiers can be held for war crimes when fighting for their lives under the confusion of war without adding the burden of policing civilian unconstitutional actions. Now look in the mirror - if you see what you consider gross Constitutional violations, you have the ability to campaign for better candidates, run for office yourself, and as a last resort, use your second amendment rights.

No, let's get a little less complex.

Do we have the right to freedom of speech? Do we have a right to a trial when we are accused of a crime?

The FIB was, and still is, blocking American's citizens ability to freely talk and to expose government crimes, because they have infiltrated Youtube, Google, Twitter, and Facebook, and probably others. There are 800 people in prison for protesting what they believed (I think correctly) was a stolen election, and the FIB was setting people up, framing them, entrapping them.

HeadSet says

No, I don't. I have no faith, WHATSOEVER in the balloting processing, and in fact, I've seen it stolen, directly. In 2008 I was at the California Republican straw poll in San Francisco, instead of allowing people to vote, they cancelled it, because Ron Paul was definitely going to win.

It's like a charity, everybody thinks they are great - even been in one? I have. When you get involved you can see how it ACTUALLY works.

You know the reason why I'm so obsessed with what is "going on", it's because most people have no clue what is going on. Once your eyes are open, you can't ever go back, ever - and that's incredibly lonely. This happened to me 30 years ago because my Aunt FORCED me into a choice - either I had to consider her an anti-Semitic nutcase, OR to realize that everything I heard in the media about Israel was false. She forced me to do that. Once I realized that EVERYTHING in Western media was at least misleading and often outright false about Israel, I had to consider what was true about everything else, and it took me about 10 years to conclude ALL of our media is propaganda. I was 30 then.

It's maddening to see the world as it really is, and everybody else in living in a fantasy land. You can't talk to anybody. So, what I'm doing is opening eyes, and eventually, the people in fantasy land will be in a minority, and they won't stay in one for long.

You get called conspiracy theorist all the fucking time, from people that think "research" is watching television or listening to NPR. I'm on the goddamned Internet, I'm talking to people all over the world. Today, I can see videos directly from the spot, I can verify it. Took me 15 years to convince my parents that Bush lied us into Iraq, I had the Downing Street Memos, and I was trying to get them to read it. Took years. And then you're trapped in "if you're not a conservative you must be a liberal" or vice versa. There's so many fucking traps created to control the population, and I don't like being controlled and most people don't realize they are controlled.

Results: A total of 23 male patients (22 currently serving in the military and 1 retiree; median [range] age, 25 [20-51] years) presented with acute onset of marked chest pain within 4 days after receipt of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. All military members were previously healthy with a high level of fitness. Seven received the BNT162b2-mRNA vaccine and 16 received the mRNA-1273 vaccine. A total of 20 patients had symptom onset following the second dose of an appropriately spaced 2-dose series. All patients had significantly elevated cardiac troponin levels. Among 8 patients who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging within the acute phase of illness, all had findings consistent with the clinical diagnosis of myocarditis.

Yes, pedo usurper Bidet has injured and killed many US soldiers with his mandate of the very dangerous and utterly ineffective toxxine.

Alarming story from an active duty patriot, now suffering from his 2nd stint of pericarditis.

The people responsible for mandating covid vaccines for military personnel, deserve to rot in prison.

If you forcibly poison someone, you go to jail.

The appropriate punishment for poisoning all members of the US military is hanging.

The military should show some courage for a change and honor their commitment to defend the US Constitution.

https://palexander.substack.com/p/us-military-doctor-testifies-she

‘Dr. Theresa Long, a medical officer with the United States military, has testified in court that she was ordered by a superior to suppress Covid-19 vaccine injuries following the Biden regime’s mandate. ...

On March 10, Liberty Counsel, the law firm representing thirty members of the military who are fighting the military vaccine mandate, returned to federal court to defend the preliminary injunction Judge Steven Merryday granted two military plaintiffs that allowed them to skirt the military vaccine mandate.

The Department of Defense (DoD) asked the judge to set aside the injunction while the case was on appeal.

Judge Merryday is a United States District Judge of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.

Per DailyExpose: During the all-day hearing, Liberty Counsel presented compelling testimony from the Navy Commander of a surface warship and three military flight surgeons, Lt. Col. Peter Chambers, Lt. Col. Teresa Long and Col. (Ret.) Stewart Tankersley, M.D. In contrast, the DOD declined to present witnesses.

Founder and Chairman of Liberty Counsel Mat Staver said in an interview with the Blaze’s Daniel Horowitz on Monday that there have been three hearings now in this case, and the DoD has not yet offered a single witness. Instead of witnesses, the government “sends these declarations,” Staver explained. He said the judge has urged them to bring live witnesses to court so they can be cross examined, but they just refuse to do it. “So they send these declarations that some JAG attorney writes, and somebody in the military signs off on them.”

Staver said that the information the DoD has been presenting in court is “outdated, wrong, and would really be subject to dismantling under cross examination.” He added that cross examinations of his witnesses have only made their case stronger. “So they really don’t have anything to cross examine our witnesses with,” he said.

Staver told Horowitz that Judge Merryday has chastised the DoD lawyers during the hearings, telling them they have “a frail case,” and are “acting as though they are above the law.”

Dr. Theresa Long, a flight surgeon who holds a master’s degree in Public Health and is specially trained in the DMED, gave emotional testimony on March 10.

She and two other flight surgeons reviewed DMED last year and made some stunning discoveries about the high incidence of apparent vaccine injuries among members of the military.

According to the whistleblowers, certain disorders spiked after the vaccine mandate went into effect, including miscarriages and cancers, and neurological problems which increased by 1000 percent.

Dr. Long testified that she was contacted by high level officer the night before the hearing, and told not to discuss her findings regarding the explosive military medical data in court. The whistleblower reportedly said she felt threatened after she tried to get her superiors to address the findings, “fearing for her life and for the safety of her children.” ...

Staver asked Long a question about the DMED data during the hearing, and she answered: “I have been ordered not to answer that question.”

Judge Merryday reportedly asked Long: “Ordered by who?,” and the doctor explained what happened the night before the hearing.

Staver then asked Long if the information the military ordered her to withhold was relevant and helpful for the court and the public to know. She said, “yes,” and Staver asked her why.

Long reportedly paused and choked back tears as she told the judge: “I have so many soldiers being destroyed by this vaccine. Not a single member of my senior command has discussed my concerns with me … I have nothing to gain and everything to lose by talking about it. I’m OK with that because I am watching people get absolutely destroyed.”

Dr. Long also testified that the data shows that deaths of military members from the vaccines exceed deaths from COVID itself.

Staver later told Horowitz that the DoD’s order for her not to discuss DMED amounted to witness tampering, especially since Long has whistleblower protections.

“They not only violated the Whistleblower Act, they potentially intimidated a witness and tried to change that witness’ testimony,” he said during the Conservative Review podcast on Monday.

The doctor said she is constantly contacted by people who have been injured by the genetic vaccines, and that many of those injured are pilots, who are expected to meet high fitness standards. Long told Staver that in just one afternoon she heard from four pilots who had just gotten MRIs back showing that they had myocarditis.

Morale is tanking in the military, she testified, with soldiers are in despair over the pressure to get the vaccine, and some are even having suicidal thoughts.

Long said she was aware of at least two people who have committed suicide over the pressure, and the threat of punishment for refusal.

She said the current regime’s policies are undermining “good order and discipline.”

In addition to Dr. Long, an unnamed Navy commander testified about his commander’s attempts to punish him for refusing the experimental injections.

On February 2, Judge Merryday issued a temporary restraining order blocking the Navy from punishing the Commander because of his vaccination status. Judge Merryday ruled the Navy violated the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA).

When the court ordered the Commodore to comply with the law, he filed an affidavit saying he had “lost confidence” in the Commander because the Commander had not taken the COVID shots.

The judge then entered a preliminary injunction, and the DOD and the Navy filed a motion asking the court to set aside his injunction, arguing that due to their “lost confidence” in the commander, his ship could not deploy.

However, at the time the ship was allegedly unable to be deployed, the commander was actually far out to sea testing the ship and training the crew.

While many Commanders fail to complete these operations timely, the Commander completed the mission early and the ship deemed “safe and ready.”

In a dramatic moment, the Commander said he should not have to be there in court defending religious freedom. “Generals and admirals should be here saying what I am saying today to uphold religious freedom. Our religious freedoms are being attacked.”

Also testifying last week was Dr. Pete Chambers, a Purple Heart recipient who is in the Texas National Guard defending the southern border where 10,000-20,000 illegal immigrants are flooding through every week. “My job is to keep our soldiers safe,” Chambers said.

Chambers was hoping to retire from the military in 2023 after nearly 40 years of service, but his adverse reaction to the Moderna shot derailed his plans.

Trusting the military that the shots are “safe and effective,” and not knowing at the time that aborted fetal cells were used in the testing and/or development, he took the shot. He now suffers from demyelination, a condition affecting the central nervous system caused by the injection.

After his Moderna injury, Dr. Chambers met Lt. Col. Long. They reviewed the DOD’s Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED), the military equivalent to the federal government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), where he discovered other military members also developed a demyelination disease after the COVID shots.

Chambers, a military flight surgeon and one of only six Green Beret surgeons, was told that his job was to get soldiers to vaccinated. His superiors told him that religious exemptions would be automatically denied. “Soldiers will try. Soldiers will fail,” this commanders said.

He pointed out that shots are not effective in preventing infection, and estimated that about 75-80% of soldiers getting infected are “double vaxxed” compared to only about 15% of soldiers who are not vaccinated.

Like Long, Chambers also testified that many soldiers are being injured by the COVID shots, and that “this is not normal.”

Dr. Stewart Tankersley, a flight surgeon who retired in September 2021 at the rank of Colonel, testified that the injections are neither safe nor effective.

Tankersley said he has personally treated over 200 COVID patients with no fatalities, and the group of doctors with whom he is associated has treated over 18,000 COVID patients with deaths only in the single digits.

“I’ve never seen anything like this in the military or civilian world, the lack of dialogue, the suppression of scientific dialogue.” Tankersley said on the stand.

Dr. Tankersley explained one of several reasons there are so many injuries from the COVID shots. The mRNA vaccines require a Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) as a delivery mechanism because the RNA quickly degrades without being encased in the LNP. The combination bypasses the natural immune system and creates inflammation that can inhibit the body’s innate immunity.

Dr. Tankersley testified that the shots are neither safe nor effective. He also testified that there are safe and effective treatments for COVID, including nasal rinsing and ivermectin.

Liberty Counsel argued that the DOD’s position that the only one way to combat COVID and ensure military readiness is to force the injections and kick out the unvaccinated is “untenable,” and that the mandate is undermining military readiness and harming morale.

Staver said: “I am honored to serve the brave men and women of the military. I am dismayed by the abuse and propaganda forced upon them from the White House and the Department of Defense. The truth will prevail, and freedom will win.” ’

Whatever happened with this case?

💉 Another Halloween mystery! Let me tell you, when I saw the Washington Post’s pathetic headline yesterday, I was so glad I’ve taken the time the last couple weeks for a Friday “medical emergencies” roundup. The article simply stated: “Marines’ top general hospitalized after medical emergency.”

A medical emergency! You know that that means. It means his “medical emergency” fits the jab-injury profile. I’ll bet anyone who wants to lose their money that it was a heart attack, stroke, or a blood clot. The whole thing already reeks of coverup, and get ready — I’m about to have a field day with the word “mysterious.” ...

It’s another pandemic mystery. It’s an enigma wrapped inside a riddle, wrapped inside an egg roll. Clearly they do NOT want to talk about the cause of General Smith’s hospitalization, for some reason. It could only be a jab injury or some kind of weird autoerotic sprain that nobody wants to talk about. Either way.

Now they want the rational soldiers back to send them off to die for Israel.

Holy shit. Just this last Tuesday, my son inlaw told me he went to enlist. He's 34. I said WTF? He said he wanted the $50,000 sign up bonus but they wouldn't take him because he has 3 kids, he's married and he's had too many marijuana busts. He's a trust fund loser so I'm not sure if I'm glad or not that they turned him down. :)

Only a fool would take that bait. They'll either ship you off to die for some lie, or turn around 6 months from now and re-instate the mandate.

Patrick says

Why would anyone in their right mind ever trust the military again?

The only solution is to hang everyone who mandated that poison, starting from the top. Then people might trust the military enough to enlist. But not until then.

Patrick says

Yes, do a blood test or eye scan of the brass that ordered the shot, and if the test shows they did not get the jab they ordered others to get, hang them. Same with college presidents.

Military Could Owe Billions to Service Members Involuntarily Discharged for Refusing COVID Shots

The U.S. military could owe billions in back pay and legal fees depending on the outcome of three class-action lawsuits filed on behalf of service members who allege they were wrongfully discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine. ...

https://militarybackpay.com/cases/

Among the claims made by the plaintiffs are that the military could not legally mandate vaccines issued under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), as was the case with the COVID-19 vaccines, and that it was nearly impossible for service members requesting a religious exemption to have those requests approved ...

“The DoD has admitted in related litigation that the DoD did not have any FDA-licensed COVID-19 vaccines” when the mandate was issued in 2021, the lawsuits state. Instead, the DOD “began using and mandating the unlicensed, EUA Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine based on the DoD’s determination” that the two were “interchangeable.”

Notably, in November 2021, a federal judge rejected the DOD’s claim that the fully licensed Comirnaty and the EUA Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines were “interchangeable.”

“Austin’s mandate … claimed that service members would only be required to take fully licensed vaccines, but Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 was neither licensed nor a vaccine by the DOD’s own regulations and the manufacturers’ own SEC filings,” Saran said.

“Comirnaty was removed from the market by the FDA the same day it was licensed, and then a DOD official with no legal authority, Terry Adirim, M.D., MPH, MBA, issued an edict claiming that the unlicensed EUA products could be substituted in place of the licensed ones,” he added.

“Service members were forced to take experimental products — and we now know unequivocally just how deadly they have been,” Saran said.

What utter and horrifying fraud by the FDA and DOD.

"You're not required to take an unlicensed injection, but the FDA licensed "Comirnaty" and then removed it from the market the same day and that's like this unlicensed one so you have to take it or be expelled from the military. The point is, you might die but no one can sue us."

Terry Adirim must be tried for mass murder.

I still don't understand this Comirnity slight of hand.

Melton was a drill sergeant with the 1st Battalion, 34th Infantry Regiment.

His body was found by unit personnel.

He was located after he failed to report for work. ...

Apparently, I’m not the only one wondering where exactly is the man who currently is the single most important member of Biden’s Cabinet? Question asked, by Newsmax’s John Bachman:



Nope. In yesterday’s scraps of Lloyd Austin news, Real Clear Defense ran a revolting op-ed titled “Secretary Austin’s Unauthorized Absence,” written by a U.S. Navy SEAL discharged in 2020 for being unreachable for only five hours. (Ironically, he was unreachable because he’d been wrongly arrested by local Hawaiian authorities for violating Covid lockdowns during the first month of the pandemic).

But … is the Secretary almost back? Also yesterday, Reuters ran a tantalizing Lloyd Austin story headlined, “US Defense Secretary to Attend Virtual Meeting on Ukraine From Home.” Still recovering from his elective prostate cancer surgery, Austin reportedly will attend a meeting later today with U.S. and Ukraine generals, probably to cry about how awfully the Proxy War is going and agree that if they could only get a few more hundred billion, this thing would be all over.

Austin will be the only participant attending remotely since he’s not up to scratch. The article was silent about whether Austin would be visible on a screen or would just be listening on the phone, but Pentagon spokesmen did say the top military leader will uncharacteristically skip the post-meeting press conference. So, we don’t get to see him.

So much for the stalemate. Independent media and milbloggers are widely reporting the Russians are pushing all along the disputed border in what looks like a wide-scale, coordinated attack, that Ukrainian defenses are collapsing, that Russian planes appear to control the skies, all amidst rumors swirling about potential ‘leadership changes’ in Kiev. Corporate media mentioned none of that yesterday, not even to “fact check,” but it did allow that Ukraine is wearing down. ...

Meanwhile, to help the poor Ukrainians defend their border, Joe Biden steadfastly refuses to agree to commonsense demands from Republicans to help defend our border security. Apparently, two of Biden’s most important goals are now in conflict: his goal of keeping the U.S.’s border wide open versus his goal of keeping Ukraine’s border closed.

Patrick says

This is murder.
