At Least Half of Panel Advising Congress on Drug Policy Had Undisclosed Ties to Drugmakers
An investigation by Project On Government Oversight investigation found at least seven of 14 committee members charged with advising Congress on drug policy had undisclosed past or current financial ties to drug companies. One member earned $875 per hour as an expert witness for Merck.
Jordan Peterson says he spoke to a senior government adviser who told him Canada’s COVID restriction policies are completely driven by opinion polls and not science.
“In relation to the COVID restrictions, I talked to a senior adviser to one of the provincial governments a couple of weeks ago,” said Peterson.
“He told me flat out that the COVID policy here is driven by nothing but opinion polls related to the popularity of the government,” he added.
“No science, no endgame in sight, no real plan, and so what that means is that the part of the population that is most afraid of COVID,” are driving the policy.
Peterson pointed to figures that prove people vastly exaggerate the risk of being hospitalized by COVID due to relentless government fearmongering campaigns.
regulators have been consumed by covid monomania and every other area of medical endeavor is suffering as a result ...
the FDA (and other health regulators) have gone on weird, fundamentalist covidian pilgrimages at the expense of literally everything else.
facilities remain uninspected. trials are not getting approved. ongoing and planned clinical trails are failing or being postponed because the endless circus of randomly rotating regulations make it impossible to enroll and follow up patients and increasingly because the FDA refuses to provide the comments and engagement on study and submission design integral to a successful process. ...
this used to run quite well. frankly, under gottlieb, the FDA was truly a gold standard organization and they hit their dates well while providing high quality review and striking a good balance of working with companies on their projects while demanding good study design and requiring sound endpoints and data.
since scott left mid term in april of 2019 to “spend more time with his family” the FDA has been in a downspiral. his departure itself was deeply odd. you basically never see a mid-term resignation, especially from such a popular and effective leader. ...
this is not a make believe game played for goldfish crackers, this is the engine of medical advancement and it has been idled so that we can chase nothing but covid and push massive new products of dubious utility (to the unprecedented profit of a few big companies) while the rest of the industry gets plowed under.
this will, of course, wind up benefiting the big pharma companies a second time as all the stranded assets will be cheap to acquire. (oh, did you think this would be a one act play? not likely.) ...
the FDA seems to have become a wholly owned subsidiary of “covid inc” a public private collaboration of crony capitalism and political preferencing. this is going to pay nasty dividends for a long time to come.
keep one thing in mind:
it was not covid that did this. it was covid policy.
this was a choice.
At this point, I think it is clear: many pandemic experts hurt children.
School closure was the greatest self inflicted wound of the pandemic. Sensible European nations did not close primary school at all, or only for 6 weeks, but places in the USA remained closed for more than a year. This was a net negative for the health and well-being of children, and will damage this nation for years to come. I am not sure we will recover.
This decision was made only in some places in the USA, and not others, and was not explained by virus specific properties— it had no correlation with cases/100k or hospitalizations per capita—but solely the political valence of a region/ strength of teachers unions. When the history books are written, school closure will be viewed, as I have said before: a massively catastrophic and harmful blunder that was fueled by mis-information from the legacy media, and many pundits who lacked experience adjudicating trade-offs.
But the experts did not stop with closure. To this day, children suffer some of the harshest restrictions. In many parts of the USA, including school districts in California, school kids must wear cloth masks inside and outside (Nov 2021). During recess, and in inclement weather (rain). In some locations, they must eat lunch outside, in a hurry (time limits), or in the cold.
Biden Pick for FDA Chief Holds Millions in Big Pharma Investments
Dr. Robert Califf, President Biden's pick to lead the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, made millions as a consultant for more than a dozen pharmaceutical corporations and holds millions more in Big Pharma investments.

We have nothing but criminals running the corporate-government festering sore that claims to represent the people.
The misinformation from the CDC keep on coming
I could spend all day, every day, dissecting the garbage that gets published by the CDC. This paper was a doozy.
CDC Not Investigating Myocarditis Death of 13-Year-Old Days After Pfizer Shot, Emails Reveal
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is leaving it to state health departments to investigate deaths reported following COVID vaccines, including the June 2021 death of 13-year-old Jacob Clynick who died of myocarditis three days after his second Pfizer shot.
such credibility as it once had, the WHO has squandered and then some over these two long years of beclowning themselves with reversals, reversions, fabrications, and fantastical fright narratives, seemingly at random.
this is just more of the same and i’m not even going to try to speculate on motive anymore. it’s just too absurd.
So the guy asking questions starts simple: a VAERS question about the number of deaths. He remarks that it’s been reported by virologists and scientists that the VAERS data system contains thousands of death reports. Is this true? Pretty simple question, yes? I can answer now, without thinking or making a reference to getting hit by a car. Yes. It does contain thousands of death reports in the context of the COVID-19 injectable products.
What say you of VAERS, Rochelle? Thousands (actually it’s tens of thousands and there is an over 6000% increase over the past 30 year average) dead in VAERS in context of COVID-19 injectable products… Is this true?
Rochelle through her multiple masks: Let’s not answer the question and talk about getting hit by a car!
A number? Any idea? Nope. Er. Uh. Referral.
Records of deaths?
Fauci: No absolute number. (Muted microphone.) No number. But let’s talk about getting hit by that car again! ‘Everything that happens after the vax is considered a death?’ What the hell is he even trying to say?
Rochelle: And every one of those is adjudicated.
WHAT? ADJUDICATED? Unless they also changed the definition of adjudicated to ignored, then I think you have the wrong word lady.
5 days after being ‘omicron asymptomatic’, you are allowed to go out! But no traveling, no gyms, no travel, no traveling, no living, no eating.
Yeah, just put your multiple masks on and go home. It’s safer. And for Christ’s sake, don’t talk to anyone or express any kind of love or be human.
Early treatment was really the only intervention we ever needed treat COVID. But fat chance of that ever happening. No nation on earth is that smart to acknowledge that. I don’t think it’s ever going to happen because nobody wants to admit they were wrong.
Too bad no public official in the US is calling for a debate on this with our team of scientists. They don’t want to be exposed as incompetent. ...
They deliberately covered up the lab leak and conspired to treat those who told the truth as “conspiracy theorists”
We now know that NIH knew the virus was man-made (since they funded it) and then when it was released, they deliberately covered it up and conspired to paint those people telling the truth as “conspiracy theorists.” ...
Quebec to force unvaccinated to pay financial penalties
Quebec is going to charge the unvaccinated to pay for skyrocketing healthcare costs. You really can't make this stuff up. It’s an AP News story. I'm sure we're next.
“The overwhelming number of deaths, over 75 percent, occurred in people who had at least four comorbidities. So really these are people who were unwell to begin with.”
That declaration by the director of the Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, is one of those fall-out-of-your-chair moments. You’re tempted to repeat it several times just to be sure every syllable is in the right place.
Did she mean the deaths of all the people who died of Covid? Seventy-five percent. Or did she mean the people who died with Covid? The preposition, we have learned, matters muchly. “Of” means Covid is the murder weapon. “With” means Colonel Mustard did it with a poker in the library, and Covid was just standing in the corner. Listen carefully to the tape of Walensky on Good Morning America and it sounds like she means “with.” How many people actually died of Covid has been a dark CDC secret from early on. ...
Of course, many of us have been skeptical all along about the reported numbers, but the CDC has stalwartly told us, no, things are really bad. What loosens Dr. Walensky’s lips at this point?
We are left to wonder. Is it the widespread recognition that the vaccines are not very good at stopping the transmission of the virus? Is it that the boosters administered to people outside the red zone of age and comorbidity are more likely to harm than to protect? Is it that the Great Scare is losing its edge faster than a melting icicle?
We can trust that somewhere in the Batcave of the Biden administration a decision has been handed down. Now is the time to cool the Covid hysteria. Word must go out that Omicron is only my head cold.
No doubt, weaning people off masks, social distancing and shutdowns will be difficult. Devotion to Faucism has taken root like Chinese bittersweet along our roadsides, choking out the native foliage. The comparison to a salvation cult is too easy to make. By comparison, the salvationist cults I used to study were far more questioning of their premises and closer in spirit to the séance-busting Houdini or doubtful Richard Dawkins than the Fauci-ites are to questioning their master’s pronouncements. My guess is that Fauci will soon be cashing in his reported $350,000 per year federal retirement package — the largest in the history of the federal government.
I’d also advise Dr. Walensky to steer clear of the library. She has the quadruple comorbidity of knowing too much, lying too often, panicking too many and reassuring too faintly. At least she shouldn’t go in there with Ron Klain fingering a piece of rope or Jill Biden pinching a hat pin.
CDC Director Walensky Says The CDC Is Changing From "Fully Vaxxed" To "Up To Date," Meaning You'll Have To Get Boosted To Remain "Fully Vaxxed"
Politics have sucked all the air out of the Reason Room. When Biden announced his unconstitutional OSHA “vaxx” mandate, my employer reflexively required me to submit to the vaxx. Though I love my work and the people with whom I work, I told my supervisor that I would never inject this talismanic, experimental, harmful dreck.
None of the dozens who come on-site to work their gardens, nor the homeless men who sleep there, are required to jab. Some of the gardeners are Mexican immigrants who speak no English. They tell me that they won’t take la vacuna; they know people who have been hospitalized or died after the shot. No matter the language, word gets around. Though somehow, the word on the street doesn’t seem to reach the nightly news. The street isn’t sponsored by Big Pharma. Yet.
Knowing I was threatened with dismissal for declining the vaxx, these normally institution-averse people reached out to administrators to oppose my firing. It was kind of touching.
Applying logic to facts, the gardeners criticized the mandatory vaxx policy, especially as applied to my situation. Erstwhile campesinos with almost no schooling are out-thinking university and municipal leaders with advanced degrees, as well as governors, public health “experts,” the American President and seemingly all elected members of his Party.
Hmm….
While I spent six weeks under under the vaxx mandate Sword of Damocles, I sincerely sought, and eventually received, a religious vaxx exemption.
But the exemption was conditioned upon me submitting to a weekly test. Sample collection requires me to generate greenhouse gases by driving to the Student Health Center, where I stand outside and spit into a plastic funnel and tube. Together, this kit probably contains as much plastic as twenty Burger King straws, and millions of the kits are likely disposed each day disposed as medical waste. As are mask mandates, the testing process is environmentally unfriendly. ...
Spitting into a tube is revelatory. But it tells you far more about your government’s and media’s abiding untrustworthiness than it tells you about your health. Reliance on testing is yet another obvious sign that the entire “crush the virus” crusade has been a sham. Governments—Democrat politicians, in particular—that have persistently required lockdowns, masks, shots and testing—none of which work—have destroyed their credibility among thinking people. This mistrust should logically and chronologically extend far beyond the Covid overreaction. Nominal Experts, Pharma, news sources and political parties who have lied this often, this obviously and for this long, may—appropriately—never be trusted again.
How the CDC Abandoned Science...
Throughout this pandemic, the CDC has been a poor steward of that balance, pushing a series of scientific results that are severely deficient. This research is plagued with classic errors and biases, and does not support the press-released conclusions that often follow. In all cases, the papers are uniquely timed to further political goals and objectives; as such, these papers appear more as propaganda than as science. The CDC’s use of this technique has severely damaged their reputation and helped lead to a growing divide in trust in science by political party. Science now risks entering a death spiral in which it will increasingly fragment into subsidiary verticals of political parties. As a society, we cannot afford to allow this to occur. Impartial, honest appraisal is needed now more than ever, but it is unclear how we can achieve it. ...
Once that trust is broken, it’s not easily regained. One way out would be to reduce the CDC’s role in deciding policy, even during a pandemic. Expecting the executive agency tasked with conducting the science itself to also help formulate national policy—which must balance both scientific and political concerns and preferences—has proven a failure, because the temptation to produce flawed or misleading analysis is simply too great. In order to firewall policymaking from science, perhaps scientific agency directors shouldn’t be political appointees at all.
