The Pfizer Job - by Dr Ah Kahn Syed - Arkmedic's blog

How Pfizer carried out the biggest pharma trial heist ever - and the regulators swallowed it hook, line and sinker. - Dr Ah Kahn Syed
Remember this? “Pfizer’s vaccine is more than 90% effective”.

Headlines repeated around the world and more importantly by the regulators FDA, TGA, EMA and MHRA...

Yep, Pfizer and the FDA concluded - after one of the quickest and largest randomised controlled trials in pharma history - that receiving a Pfizer COVID vaccine would give you only 5% of the risk of “catching COVID” than someone who didn’t receive their product1.

• Just to reiterate - this was about COVID infection. 
• No claims on severity, hospitalisation or death were made by Pfizer. 

The FDA agreed that Pfizer’s trial showed that for every 100 people who were not vaccinated and “got COVID” only 5 vaccinated people would “get COVID”. 

And remember this is COVID infection (testing positive), not anything else...

Keeping an Eye on the Storms: An Analysis of Trends in Hurricanes Over Time | The Heritage Foundation

Keeping an Eye on the Storms: An Analysis of Trends in Hurricanes Over Time | The Heritage Foundation - Joe D’Aleo and Kevin Dayaratna, PhD
Summary

• Some politicians and pundits have argued that increased greenhouse gas emissions have led to increased frequency and intensity of hurricanes. This Special Report examines historical hurricane data to determine if these claims hold merit. 
• The findings: Despite increases in carbon-dioxide levels over the past century, there has been no significant long-term increase in the incidence and severity of hurricanes using a variety of metrics...

Key Takeaways

• The frequency and intensity of hurricanes has not risen meaningfully, despite CO2 emissions and temperature increases in the 20th century globally.
• Increased hurricane damage in the U.S. is largely due to higher incomes and more infrastructure creation—which also lets the country handle adverse weather better.
• El Niño Southern Oscillation and other natural variations explain the incidence and severity of hurricanes better than global temperature increases do.

Justice Department Takes Aim at BLM and $90 Million of George Floyd Fundraising: Report

Justice Department Takes Aim at BLM and $90 Million of George Floyd Fundraising: Report:

Government deciding life or death? What could possibly go wrong??!!-----Assisted Suicide In Canada

Like most such laws - sometimes referred to as "death with dignity" laws - the initial sell is based on giving terminally ill people with no hope of recovery and a dubious quality of life to punch their ticket out of this life with a little help from their doctor. - Mitch Berg

It seems pretty gauzy on the "brochure" version...

Of course, the Canadian definition of "terminal illness" encompassed mental illness - leading to a series of Kafkaesque cases of therapy culture run amok:

April Hubbard sits on the theatre stage where she plans to die later this year.

She is not terminally ill, but the 39-year-old performance and burlesque artist has been approved for assisted dying under Canada's increasingly liberal laws...April plans to be in a "big comfy bed" for what she calls a "celebratory" moment when a medical professional will inject a lethal dose into her bloodstream...

The program has been...er, successful, I suppose, after a fashion:

Since legalization, the number of euthanasia deaths in Canada has steadily grown every year and showed little sign of slowing down. Between 2016 and 2023, over 60,000 Canadians have been euthanized, with over 15,000 in 2023 alone. Euthanasia now accounts for 4.7% of all deaths in the country...

Blue states talk about affordable housing. Red states just build it.

This graph says it all: Southern states like South Carolina, Florida, Texas, and Georgia build homes at more than twice the rate of coastal blue states. - REtipster with Seth Williams

• You can argue policy all day, but at the end of the day, permits tell the truth.
• You either make it easier to build… or you make it harder to live.

Anyone wonder why?

Ya think he expects the EU to protect Hungary from the Russian Bear??!!-----Hungarian Viktor Orbán Joins Czech Andrej Babiš and Slovak Robert Fico To Form the ‘Axis of Peace’ in Europe

Peace is slowly spreading around the old continent. - Paul Serran 

For years, conservative hero and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán almost single-handedly opposed suicidal EU policies and directives, becoming the European ‘bête noire’ that Brussels and Strasbourg love to hate...

• But now, Budapest apparently will not have to go at it alone, as other peace-loving heads of state are popping up in Europe.

Hungary is reportedly moving to join forces with Czechia and Slovakia to form what the MSM calls a ‘Ukraine-skeptic alliance’, but we prefer to call the ‘Peace Axis’ in the EU.
Politico reported:

While a firm political alliance remains some way off, the formation could significantly impede the EU’s efforts to support Ukraine financially and militarily.”...
‘It worked very well during the migration crisis...

Agree!
