A shocking investigation by the Associated Press into child labor has revealed unsettling details about an ingredient in Girl Scout cookies and it its ties to child slave labor and sex trafficking : Palm oil .
The $ 65 billion global palm oil industry is one of the largest food industries in the world and it is rooted in corruption and child abuse .

Olivia is a Girl Scout in Tennessee who became worried about the ingredient in the cookies she was selling and its ties @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a child slave .
Ima is among the estimated tens of thousands of children working alongside their parents in Indonesia and Malaysia , which supply 85 % of the world ’ s most consumed vegetable oil .

The AP used U.S. Customs records and the most recently published data from producers , traders and buyers to trace the fruits of their labor from the processing mills where palm kernels were crushed to the supply chains of many popular kids ’ cereals , candies and ice creams sold by Nestle , Unilever , Kellogg ’ s , PepsiCo and many other leading food companies , including Ferrero – one of the two makers of Girl Scout cookies .
“ I am dreaming one day I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ima told the AP , tears rolling down her cheeks .

The $65 billion global palm oil industry is one of the largest food industries in the world and it is rooted in corruption and child abuse.
The AP’s report focused on two children, Ima and Olivia. Olivia is a Girl Scout in Tennessee who became worried about the ingredient in the cookies she was selling and its ties to child slave labor. Ima is a child slave.
As the AP reports:
Ima is among the estimated tens of thousands of children working alongside their parents in Indonesia and Malaysia, which supply 85% of the world’s most consumed vegetable oil.
An Associated Press investigation found most earn little or no pay and are routinely exposed to toxic chemicals and other dangerous conditions. Some never go to school or learn to read and write.
Others are smuggled across borders and left vulnerable to trafficking or sexual abuse. Many live in limbo with no citizenship and fear being swept up in police raids and thrown into detention.
The AP used U.S. Customs records and the most recently published data from producers, traders and buyers to trace the fruits of their labor from the processing mills where palm kernels were crushed to the supply chains of many popular kids’ cereals, candies and ice creams sold by Nestle, Unilever, Kellogg’s, PepsiCo and many other leading food companies, including Ferrero – one of the two makers of Girl Scout cookies.
“I am dreaming one day I can go back to school,” Ima told the AP, tears rolling down her cheeks.
According to the report, palm oil is contained in roughly half the products on supermarket shelves and in almost three out of every four cosmetic brands, though that can be hard to discern since it appears on labels under more than 200 different names.
Due to the unscrupulous means of production, companies attempt to conceal the source of their ingredients.
Some say “sustainably produced” like the Girl Scout cookies, but as Olivia found, they also say “mixed.”
The “mixed” designation on Girl Scout cookies means that some of the palm oil is sourced from child slaves.
“For 100 years, families have been stuck in a cycle of poverty and they know nothing else than work on a palm oil plantation,” said Kartika Manurung, who has published reports detailing labor issues on Indonesian plantations.
“When I … ask the kids what they want to be when they grow up, some of the girls say, ‘I want to be the wife of a palm oil worker.’”
To be clear, some of these are children helping out in their family businesses attempting to pull themselves out of poverty — though an entire family may earn less in a day than a $5 box of Girl Scout Do-si-dos.
However, in other instances, these children are forced into labor camps and literally worked to death, sold into sex slavery, raped and abused.
The AP’s investigation into child labor is part of a broader in-depth look at the industry that also exposed rape, forced labor, trafficking and slavery.
According to the report, inside the palm oil industry, more than 33,000 children work there, many under hazardous conditions – with nearly half of them between the ages of 5 and 11.
“I thought Girl Scouts was supposed to be about making the world a better place,” Olivia said. “But this isn’t at all making the world better.”
Indeed, many of these American based companies like Kellogg’s, Nestle, Pepsi and Unilever, have used slave labor — many of them willingly — and have faced very little backlash or consequence from the US government.
While the Free Thought Project often reports on the megacorp Nestle and their rampant abuse and exploitation of drinking water supplies across the nation, few are aware that the company has been found using slave labor.
What’s more, as governments across the world attempt to crack down the use of slave labor by requiring companies to report on its use, Nestle is fighting it, saying that it will end up costing consumers at the register.
In 2018, Nestle issued a warning against proposed legislation that would require them to report on their efforts to weed out slavery within their company.
The company says the cost of checking to see if they are forcing people to work against their will end up being passed on to the consumer.
The best way to stop Nestle and other companies from using slave labor in their production lines is to stop buying their products.

Top 10 Suppressed News Stories of 2020

Back in the day , when I was managing editor at the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell , Mont.
, I enjoyed the end-of-year ritual of voting in the Associated Press ’ s poll of the Top 10 news stories .
When I started participating in the year 2000 , my list would include many of the same stories that made the final AP list , although often with differences in ranking .
But by the time I retired in 2018 , my view of the news had sharply diverged from the AP ’ s consensus view .
I ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then , questioning what seemed to be an ever more transparent left-leaning bias in mainstream reporting .
That divergence was probably magnified by the 2016 candidacy of Donald Trump and the bright light he had shined on Fake News , but my disenchantment with my profession had been growing for years , as chronicled in my book “ The Media Matrix : What If Everything You Know Is Fake ?
” Still , there is no way that even as recently as four years ago I would have predicted just how abysmally irresponsible @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Major newspapers are winning Pulitzer Prizes for blatantly false reporting on topics such as “ Russian collusion.
” Meanwhile , Silicon Valley oligarchs have appointed themselves censors – warning the American people not to read or watch anything that hasn ’ t been “ fact-checked ” by their hand-picked thought police .
The situation has gotten so bad that it ’ s no longer worth ranking the top news stories of the year because so little that is covered is news and so much that is news is written off as a “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ m introducing Heartland Diary USA ’ s first annual presentation of “ Last Chance to Wake Up and Smell the News They Tried to Kill.
” So here are five of the biggest suppressed stories of 2020 .
Pardon me if I don ’ t go into great detail on them , but the closer I get to the truth , the more likely that Google , Twitter and Facebook will bury my story , too .
Has anyone ever figured out why it is OK for grocery store workers to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pandemic while serving the needs of the entire population with no restrictions other than wearing a mask , but it is considered dangerous for gyms to open or , most ludicrously , for anyone other than spouses of governors to take their boat for a quick spin around the lake ?
It seems like the lockdown can turn into whatever is convenient for politicians .
The uneven effects of the lockdown on different states and different sectors have resulted in the shift of trillions of dollars of capital in ways that will reshape @ @ @ @ @ @ @ yet we are not supposed to talk about it .
If you know anything about this drug , it is probably just that some guy in Arizona died after drinking it , and that maybe President Trump was somehow responsible .
Well , as they say , a little knowledge is a dangerous thing .
The guy in Arizona didn ’ t take hydroxychloroquine ; he took a fish tank cleaner called chloroquine phosphate .
And Trump never told anyone to take either the drug or the fish-tank cleaner .
He just said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Of course , as soon as he said it , the radical academic leftists who control medical journals and associations warned that hydroxychloroquine had no benefit as a treatment and was potentially dangerous even though it had been safely used against malaria and various immune deficiency syndromes for decades .
Fortunately , many doctors who were familiar with the drug continued to use it as a therapy in the early stages of COVID infections , and many patients around the world have been spared the most dire effects of the virus as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expect to read about it in the New York Times .
While the president has been painted as anti-science , it was his administration ’ s support that led to the fastest turnaround ever from viral discovery to viral vaccine — essentially less than a year .
Even as House Democrats are poised to launch investigations into Trump ’ s supposed crimes against humanity for being president during the COVID crisis , lives are being saved as a result of his policies .
Just don ’ t expect to read about it in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of 2020 ridiculing Trump for his prescient predictions that a vaccine would be developed by the end of the year .
The ability to bury the Hunter Biden story throughout the 2020 presidential campaign ranks as one of the greatest victories in the history of propaganda .
Hunter is the son of former Vice President Joe Biden , and his acknowledged history as a drug addict is now considered his strong suit .
The Senate Homeland Security Committee found extensive evidence that Hunter has made hundreds of millions of dollars for the Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , so when Hunter ’ s laptop turned up with first-person incriminating evidence , it was pretty obvious that Joe Biden had a lot of answer for .
Except that the media never made him answer for anything .
It preferred to rest on the bizarre assertion from 50 former U.S. intelligence officials that clear evidence of foreign collusion on Hunter ’ s laptop had all the earmarks of a “ Russian disinformation ” campaign .
This was errant nonsense .
Reporters , read the emails !
It turned out that everything that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just prologue for the greatest deception in American history — namely the hijacking of a presidential election through means both legal and illegal .
Most importantly , every state that changed its election procedures without the consent of its legislature violated the U.S. Constitution .
That ’ s why Republicans plan to challenge the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6 .
Whether you like Donald Trump or not should be irrelevant .
You either follow the Constitution or you don ’ t .
The fact that Trump increased his support in almost every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ election will apparently remain a mystery because the Democratic Party , with an assist from weak Republicans , is intent on continuing the charade that Joe Biden is a beloved elder statesman even more popular than Barack Obama .
I should add a disclaimer here .
My list will not be your list .
This is 2020 , and there is plenty of suppression to go around .
You are hereby invited to submit your own contributions in the comments section below .
In the meantime , rounding out my Top 10 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stories suppressed in 2020 : • The communist links to antifa and Black Lives Matter ; • how the Russian hoax was exposed but left unpunished ; • how the policies of a certain governor in New York state led to thousands of COVID deaths in nursing homes ; • the successful campaign of billionaire George Soros to subvert American jurisprudence by electing pro-criminal district attorneys ; • and of course the suppression of news itself .

Back in the day, when I was managing editor at the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell, Mont., I enjoyed the end-of-year ritual of voting in the Associated Press’s poll of the Top 10 news stories.
When I started participating in the year 2000, my list would include many of the same stories that made the final AP list, although often with differences in ranking.
But by the time I retired in 2018, my view of the news had sharply diverged from the AP’s consensus view.
I’d become something of a gadfly by then, questioning what seemed to be an ever more transparent left-leaning bias in mainstream reporting.
That divergence was probably magnified by the 2016 candidacy of Donald Trump and the bright light he had shined on Fake News, but my disenchantment with my profession had been growing for years, as chronicled in my book “The Media Matrix: What If Everything You Know Is Fake?”
Still, there is no way that even as recently as four years ago I would have predicted just how abysmally irresponsible the media would become by 2020.
Major newspapers are winning Pulitzer Prizes for blatantly false reporting on topics such as “Russian collusion.”
Meanwhile, Silicon Valley oligarchs have appointed themselves censors – warning the American people not to read or watch anything that hasn’t been “fact-checked” by their hand-picked thought police.
The situation has gotten so bad that it’s no longer worth ranking the top news stories of the year because so little that is covered is news and so much that is news is written off as a “conspiracy theory.”
That’s why I’m introducing Heartland Diary USA’s first annual presentation of “Last Chance to Wake Up and Smell the News They Tried to Kill.”
So here are five of the biggest suppressed stories of 2020. Pardon me if I don’t go into great detail on them, but the closer I get to the truth, the more likely that Google, Twitter and Facebook will bury my story, too.
5) Mysterious mutating lockdown:
Has anyone ever figured out why it is OK for grocery store workers to remain on the job during an international pandemic while serving the needs of the entire population with no restrictions other than wearing a mask, but it is considered dangerous for gyms to open or, most ludicrously, for anyone other than spouses of governors to take their boat for a quick spin around the lake?
It seems like the lockdown can turn into whatever is convenient for politicians.
The uneven effects of the lockdown on different states and different sectors have resulted in the shift of trillions of dollars of capital in ways that will reshape the economy for generations to come, yet we are not supposed to talk about it.
4) Hydroxychloroquine:
If you know anything about this drug, it is probably just that some guy in Arizona died after drinking it, and that maybe President Trump was somehow responsible. Well, as they say, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
The guy in Arizona didn’t take hydroxychloroquine; he took a fish tank cleaner called chloroquine phosphate. And Trump never told anyone to take either the drug or the fish-tank cleaner.
He just said hydroxychloroquine was a promising treatment against COVID-19. Of course, as soon as he said it, the radical academic leftists who control medical journals and associations warned that hydroxychloroquine had no benefit as a treatment and was potentially dangerous even though it had been safely used against malaria and various immune deficiency syndromes for decades.
Fortunately, many doctors who were familiar with the drug continued to use it as a therapy in the early stages of COVID infections, and many patients around the world have been spared the most dire effects of the virus as a result. Just don’t expect to read about it in the New York Times.
3) Trump’s jjab victory:
While the president has been painted as anti-science, it was his administration’s support that led to the fastest turnaround ever from viral discovery to viral jjab — essentially less than a year.
Even as House Democrats are poised to launch investigations into Trump’s supposed crimes against humanity for being president during the COVID crisis, lives are being saved as a result of his policies.
Just don’t expect to read about it in the mainstream media, which spent much of 2020 ridiculing Trump for his prescient predictions that a jjab would be developed by the end of the year.
2) Hunter Biden’s laptop:
The ability to bury the Hunter Biden story throughout the 2020 presidential campaign ranks as one of the greatest victories in the history of propaganda. Hunter is the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, and his acknowledged history as a drug addict is now considered his strong suit.
The Senate Homeland Security Committee found extensive evidence that Hunter has made hundreds of millions of dollars for the Biden family by selling access to his father, so when Hunter’s laptop turned up with first-person incriminating evidence, it was pretty obvious that Joe Biden had a lot of answer for.
Except that the media never made him answer for anything. It preferred to rest on the bizarre assertion from 50 former U.S. intelligence officials that clear evidence of foreign collusion on Hunter’s laptop had all the earmarks of a “Russian disinformation” campaign. This was errant nonsense. Reporters, read the emails!
1) Election fraud:
It turned out that everything that happened in 2020 before Nov. 3 was just prologue for the greatest deception in American history — namely the hijacking of a presidential election through means both legal and illegal.
Most importantly, every state that changed its election procedures without the consent of its legislature violated the U.S. Constitution. That’s why Republicans plan to challenge the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6.
Whether you like Donald Trump or not should be irrelevant. You either follow the Constitution or you don’t.
The fact that Trump increased his support in almost every demographic since 2016 and yet lost the election will apparently remain a mystery because the Democratic Party, with an assist from weak Republicans, is intent on continuing the charade that Joe Biden is a beloved elder statesman even more popular than Barack Obama.
I should add a disclaimer here. My list will not be your list. This is 2020, and there is plenty of suppression to go around.
You are hereby invited to submit your own contributions in the comments section below. In the meantime, rounding out my Top 10, here are some of the other major stories suppressed in 2020:

After [more than likely] rigging the elections and staging the January 6th false flag “riot” at the capitol building in D.C., Democrats have some horrifying plans to roll out in their quest to achieve a full-blown Orwellian nightmare future for America… or at least what’s left of it.
With the rule of law now utterly rejected by every layer of the judicial system in the nation — including SCOTUS — there is no longer any controlling legal authority which will halt the rapid advance of the Left’s most ambitious agendas.
And with Democrats now proving they can steal elections right in front of us, even with overwhelming evidence literally recorded on video cameras as the ballot counting crimes took place, they know nothing can stop them from fulfilling their most crazed visions of a Marxist society rooted in authoritarianism, censorship and lies.
Big Media, Big Tech and Big Government have now merged into one gargantuan monstrosity which allows no dissent and no challenges to its power. Obey or be crushed.
Parler is being steamrolled by Apple as a demonstration of what happens if you dare suffer under the illusion that such a thing as the First Amendment even exists in this country anymore.
But that’s only the beginning. What comes next — if Trump and the Pentagon don’t stop Biden first — will rupture this nation to its core.
Here’s a list of 25 things that Democrats will likely try to implement in America, especially given that the GOP has proven itself to be completely useless at stopping the lawlessness of the Left.
There was once a time when the GOP promised that if we voted for them, they would protect us from the most insane policy nightmares of the radical Left.
But as of January 6th, the GOP has joined the radical Left in betraying America, and there is no longer any point in voting for any GOP candidate ever again.
Must-read book: United States of Socialism: Who’s Behind It. Why It’s Evil. How to Stop It.
25 things the Democrats will likely push if Biden is installed as president
Enforce nationwide mandatory masks and mandatory jjabs, all under fear of arrest. Declare the Insurrection Act under Biden and weaponize the US military against patriots and Trump supporters by labeling them all “terrorists.” Run a new slew of false flag operations to further paint Trump supporters as violent insurrectionists. The very same crisis actors used in the Jan. 6th riots are available for more acting gigs, and they already own all the MAGA gear to wear as costumes for CNN’s cameras. Use forced “covid” lockdowns to further crush the US economy and drive the population onto government subsidies and food stamps, placing most Americans under the control of the regime. Raise the minimum wage to $23 per hour, across the nation, causing a total collapse of the small business sector and driving tens of millions to unemployment and homelessness. Tear down the border wall and encourage millions of illegals to swarm into America where they receive voting cards and instructions to vote for Democrats. Outlaw all AR-15s and semiautomatic rifles, destroy the Second Amendment and confiscate all guns held by private citizens. (That’s about 500 million guns, by the way.) Ban arm braces, 80% lowers, standard capacity magazines and most ammunition in order to disarm the public and make it easier for the Biden administration to achieve its goal of genocidal extermination of Christians, Whites and Trump supporters. Crank up the money printing machines and create trillions in new debt to bail out Democrat-run cities and states. This will further destroy the dollar and lead to a financial collapse during which people who still hold dollars as currency will lose everything. (Anyone stupid enough to put their savings into dollars is about to learn a very expensive lesson about fiat currency collapse that has been repeated throughout world history.) Protect Big Tech and its censorship regime in order to achieve total information dominance over America, snuffing out all independent or dissenting voices by any means necessary, including de-platforming, lawfare, economic warfare or threats of arrest. Enact new carbon taxes to loot the people for driving cars, buying food or using electricity. Control human behavior through carbon allotments, and punish those who speak out against the new “green tyranny.” Rejoin the Paris Climate Accord and other anti-America trade agreements that Trump rejected, once again placing America at a punishing disadvantage in trade actions with other nations, accelerating the global looting of America. Remove all restrictions on China and invite the CCP to continue influencing America’s media, tech giants, stock market and elections, where they already have a strong foothold. Critical Race Theory will be pushed into all public schools as part of the mass indoctrination of the youth with “official” hatred towards Whites, Christians and conservatives. All White people will be marginalized based solely on the whiteness of their skin, all while Leftists claim to be “tolerant” and “inclusive” as long as you’re a transgender, a Trump hater or a Person Of Color. Enact government reparations to force White taxpayers to fund new handouts to People Of Color (POC) under the false justification that POC are “victims” and Whites are “oppressors.” (In reality, it’s White, conservative Christians who are now the marginalized victims in America.) Eliminate $1 trillion in student debt, forcing taxpayers to pay off loans for left-wing university indoctrination training. The NIH will be funded with tens of billions of dollars to create more biological weapons such as covid-21, covid-22, covid-23, all of which will be released to oppress the people through the same series of scamdemic hoaxes we all endured in 2020. Launch nationwide arrests of pro-Trump conservatives to be placed into FEMA camps or executed as “traitors” after being labeled insurrectionists. The very same “resistance” that the Left celebrated for four years under Trump will be criminalized and prosecuted under Biden. Pursue economy-crushing “Green New Deal” policies that will crush America’s economy and lead to mass famine due to the collapse of farming. Starvation is a desired policy of the Left because they want the masses to be completely dependent on government handouts for food, housing and health care. Install more compromised voting machines across America so that Democrats never lose another election again. The ideal scenario for Democrats is to achieve a state where the votes of real voters no longer matter at all. That was already achieved on November 3rd, 2020. Use widespread eminent domain laws to seize rural land and drive people into the Agenda 21 cities where they are easier to control and monitor. Use 5G Internet-Of-Things surveillance to track the movements and speech archives of all individuals. Roll out a Total Information Awareness techno-fascist police state under the banner of “security.” All private health insurance will be outlawed, and healthcare rationing will be put in place, including death panels to decide who lives and who dies. Have no illusions: White people will be deemed to have no value in society whatsoever, so Whites will be killed first. Purge the entire history of Trump from the internet and the White House archives, seeking to erase and rewrite history in classic Orwellian fashion. Purge all evidence of the election rigging crimes of the Democrats and erase all evidence of jjab harm or the laboratory origins of the coronavirus. “Anti-terrorism” laws will be invoked to cut off banking and all financial services to those who express dissent toward the authoritarian Biden regime. Any person flagged by the new social credit scoring system will be denied access to air travel, grocery stores or voting locations, much like is currently done in communist China. The First Amendment will be nullified by new “hate speech” laws which will be upheld by the traitorous US Supreme Court as “justified” due to “right-wing violence.”
So unless Trump takes decisive action in the next nine days to expose the criminal corruption of the Democrats and reverse the stolen election, America will face the most deliberately destructive administration in its history… and the republic will not survive.
With Biden and Harris at the helm, I predict the United States of America as we know it will no longer be recognizable by 2023. Which is exactly what the CCP wants. And Joe Biden is their man to get it done…
It will be a failed state by 2025, and the fiat dollar will collapse, leading to widespread poverty, social chaos, disease and mass death.
Prepare accordingly.

BUSTED: Georgia Ballots Were Printed DIFFERENTLY For GOP Areas Vs. DEM Areas
Here’s the relevant transcript:
Jovan Pulitzer, regarding Fulton County
At this very moment at a polling location in the county, not only do we now have access through the devices to the poll pad–the system, but WE ARE IN.
And it’s not supposed to have WiFi and that’s not supposed to be able to happen so we’ve documented now it’s communicating two ways in real time, meaning it’s receiving data and sending data … should never happen, shouldn’t be WiFi, we’ve now documented it in real time. That’s going on right there where everyone is voting.
This is coming through the polling pad device… it only takes one device where you daisy chain them together and do it. The most important thing is that shouldn’t be two-waying and even should even be accessible or on, and it’s there.
Statistically what can be going on when you have an operation like this is as that data is being exchanged and somebody is in it, can actually siphon off that data, modify that data and feed it right back into the system, or kind of do a pump-and-dump in real time.
Not only are you in the system, but then once you get into the machine you can do stuff in real time, changing it [with] intent. That’s what it opens up.

After an Israeli man reportedly died just 2 hours after receiving his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine , authorities in the Swiss Canton of Lucerne said on Wednesday that one of the first people in the country to receive the vaccine has died , though whether his death had anything to do with the inoculation hasn ’ t yet been determined .
The canton has yet to release any additional details about the exact amount of time that passed between the inoculation and the man ’ s death .
Lucerne was the site of the first vaccinations in Switzerland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech given primarily to elderly people .
Switzerland has received 107K vaccine doses , so far , and expects to get 250K per month starting next year .
“ We are aware of the case , ” a spokesperson said , before adding that the death had been referred to Swiss drugs regulator Swissmedic .
Swissmedic didn ’ t comment further .
Pfizer and BioNTech ’ s vaccine is the only vaccine approved , so far , in Switzerland .
The EU has just started approving the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the first injections starting earlier this week .

According to the Israeli Health Ministry over 12,400 residents have tested positive for COVID-19 after being vaccinated with experimental Pfizer COVID-19 jjab shots.
He stated that at this stage it is still difficult to draw definitive conclusions about the effectiveness of the jjab, for better or worse.
Over 12,400 Israeli residents have tested positive for COVID-19 after being vaccinated, among them 69 people who had already gotten the second dose, which began to be administered early last week, the Israeli Health Ministry reported.
Of the 3,199 people who took coronavirus tests between day 22 and day 28 after the first jjab, 84 were found to be positive (2.6 percent), including 69 people who had already been vaccinated twice.
At this stage it is still difficult to draw definitive conclusions about the effectiveness of the jjab, for better or worse.
In some groups of inoculated people during the different post-jjab periods, the ratio of positive tests corresponds to the ratio of positive tests in the general population, the overwhelming majority of whom were not yet vaccinated.
There could also be issues related to the fact that most of those vaccinated first and who have thus accumulated the most post-vaccination time are over 60 years old.
According to Pfizer, the big jump in immunity is meant to come between day 15 and day 21, when the jjab’s effectiveness is meant to go from 52 percent to 89 percent, after which the second dose is meant to bring the vaccinated percent to a state of 95 percent protection.
But these statistics, encouraging as they are, cannot determine the level of protection the jjab grants each individual person.
Moreover, the more people are vaccinated, the more likely gaps will be found between Pfizer’s results in its clinical trials and results in the field, not just with regard to the level of the jjab’s effectiveness for individuals, but regarding its general effectiveness and ability to provide “herd immunity.”
This is especially true since it still isn’t clear to what degree the jjab protects against mutations of the virus.
Few days ago, the Louisiana woman who suffered uncontrollable convulsions after being administered the experimental Pfizer COVID-19 jjab was screened for permanent brain damage caused by the metals in the jjab.
Her son Brant Griner said that the hospital determined that she was experiencing a “neurological reaction,” he said, adding that doctors believe the medical condition was caused by “the metals in the jjab.”
As reported by GreatGameIndia earlier, Pfizer has paid $2.3 billion in the largest healthcare fraud settlement in history to resolve criminal and civil liability arising from the illegal promotion of certain pharmaceutical products.
Even, the US government paid over $57 million in compensation for jjab injuries and deaths until March 2020, and over $1 Billion in the past five years.
According to the co-founder of BioNTech Dr Ugur Sahin, the COVID-19 jjab he designed for Pfizer was designed in just few hours in a single day on January 25, 2020. No other jjab in history has been created and manufactured so quickly. Previously, the fastest jjab ever developed took more than four years.
Even, Moderna’s coronavirus jjab also took just two days to design.
According to pharma giant Moderna, the COVID-19 mRNA based experimental jabs are Operating System designed to program human DNA. These jjabs are being approved for emergency use for the first time in history.

In a recent interview , Dr. Ron Paul opined on his son Rand , who has tested positive for the coronavirus .
Dr. Paul said that the dangers of the coronavirus have been “ blown way out of proportion ” and some people benefit from crises , like politicians who want more power .
Dr. Paul begins his interview with Lior Gantz of the Wealth Research Group saying Rand Paul had no symptoms of the virus and is feeling fine , like the majority of people who have gotten .
Many are already immune and have been exposed without showing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of people have probably had the infection and still do , ” says Dr. Paul .
“ But it ’ s used by an excuse by those who have a special interest… and I think that is sad.
” The problem is that this crisis was blown up so some people ( the ruling class ) could expand and broaden their power over the public , and Dr. Paul says hopefully , the masses will “ wake up soon ” to what the government is doing to them and their future .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this and it ’ s [ the political usage of the coronavirus ] is out of control , ” Dr. Paul ( an OBYN ) added .
Just look at who has been hurt the most so far : the poorest Americans in service industries that the ruling class demanded to shut down .
Dr. Paul says the only real danger is the government ’ s expansion of power and the already sick or elderly who will get the coronavirus .
But that danger to our susceptible population already exists and has for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ several strains of the flu , so the panic and shut down is unwarranted .
Unless you want more power and totalitarian control .
Both Dr. Paul and Mr. Gantz have been long-time liberty and free-market champions , and this interview is a must-watch if you consider yourself anything other than a slave to the government .
Both men are calling out the power-hungry ruling class , something the majority of Americans have not done .
“ The people who love control , even local officials [ such as governors who canceled school @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ] love the power that they ’ re getting from this , ” says Dr. Paul .
These power-hungry politicians love putting the public under threats of arrest if they dare balk at the power grab of these politicians .

The real danger is the federal and local governments’ overreaction to this outbreak.

NPR Station is CENSORING Donald Trump as MSM Pushes Totalitarian Propaganda – ‘Social Distancing’ is the ‘New Normal’ and Here to Stay Even After the Crisis

A Seattle-based NPR station has stated that it will no longer be airing President Donald Trump ’ s coronavirus briefings because of “ misinformation.
” As we ’ ve learned over the past several years , misinformation is simply the information they don ’ t want you to hear .
So what is the “ misinformation ” Trump has been saying ?
Obviously things the mainstream media wants to avoid , like asking people to remain calm , look at the objective facts and statistics about the pandemic and stop playing into the fear-mongering of the mainstream media .
Fear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the past few weeks , adding to their profits .
Reopening the economy means people would be at work or at least out doing things instead of watching the panic-laced headlines scroll across the TV .
“ KUOW is monitoring White House briefings for the latest news on the coronavirus — and we will continue to share all news relevant to Washington State with our listeners , ” the station tweeted .
“ However , we will not be airing the briefings live due to a pattern of false or misleading information @ @ @ @ @ @ @ real-time.
” This habit of censorship needs to end now .
How about instead of censorship like totalitarian regimes resort to , we let people have access to all of the information and decide for themselves if it ’ s fact-based or not ?
It ’ s time to provide people with facts , not fear .
This is simply another tactic to panic Americans , who are already scared to death about the pandemic and the aftermath they ’ ll have to live through .
Most recently , Trump has called for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the near future , perhaps by Easter , even though public health professionals are still grappling with the spread of the virus .
He also has made false claims about the availability of tests , the timeline for finding a vaccine and the potential benefits of a treatment that includes the ingredient chloroquine .
While there is some promising study of its potential use , it has not been approved for treatment .

A Seattle-based NPR station has stated that it will no longer be airing President Donald Trump’s coronavirus briefings because of “misinformation.”
As we’ve learned over the past several years, misinformation is simply the information they don’t want you to hear.
So what is the “misinformation” Trump has been saying?
Obviously things the mainstream media wants to avoid, like asking people to remain calm, look at the objective facts and statistics about the pandemic and stop playing into the fear-mongering of the mainstream media.
Fear has boosted mainstream media’s ratings in the past few weeks, adding to their profits. Reopening the economy means people would be at work or at least out doing things instead of watching the panic-laced headlines scroll across the TV.
“KUOW is monitoring White House briefings for the latest news on the coronavirus — and we will continue to share all news relevant to Washington State with our listeners,” the station tweeted.
“However, we will not be airing the briefings live due to a pattern of false or misleading information provided that cannot be fact-checked in real-time.”
This habit of censorship needs to end now. How about instead of censorship like totalitarian regimes resort to, we let people have access to all of the information and decide for themselves if it’s fact-based or not?
It’s time to provide people with facts, not fear. This is simply another tactic to panic Americans, who are already scared to death about the pandemic and the aftermath they’ll have to live through.
Most recently, Trump has called for the lifting of social distancing guidelines in the near future, perhaps by Easter, even though public health professionals are still grappling with the spread of the virus.
He also has made false claims about the availability of tests, the timeline for finding a jjab and the potential benefits of a treatment that includes the ingredient chloroquine. While there is some promising study of its potential use, it has not been approved for treatment.

All that said, do the right thing and do not spread this virus around.

Keep a safe distance between people while in public to avoid the virus, and if you feel more comfortable, wear a face mask.

The mother sent this warning to first responders,
“Just a heads up to nurses, doctors, firefighters, police officers, and other first responders who have children and sneaky exes… watch your backs!”
She then also posted a copy of a gag order issued by the judge on her Facebook Page stating: “Not in violation by posting; asked and verified.”
Some Judges Cancelling Visitation Rights of Foster Children with Their Parents “just when they need the comfort of their own families the most”
On Wednesday, March 18, the National Coalition for Child Protection Reform (NCCPR) provided news and commentary on their blog concerning child abuse, child welfare, foster care, and family preservation.
The NCCPR news and commentary round-up for the week ending March 17 provided the following:
“The Chronicle of Social Change is tracking the issues child welfare agencies will have to deal with during the COVID19 pandemic. And family defender Amy Mulzer has a tweet thread predicting how those agencies will deal with it: Badly.”
UPDATE: And, as if to prove Mulzer right, a judge in Arkansas is cutting off in-person visits between foster children and their parents – just when they need the comfort of their own families the most.
NCCPR provided a copy of an order from the circuit court of Lonoke County, Arkansas Juvenile Division.
How one mother and daughter have been affected by “social distancing”
March 21st, Leila Fadel, with NPR, provided a story that describes how social isolation is affecting the ability of parents to see their children, and also prolonging the process of trying to get their children out of foster care.
Fadel reports on Jessica, a mother from Brooklyn, New York, whose twice weekly, overnight visitation with her daughter has been suspended due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
Jessica, who asked NPR to only use her first name due to pending legal cases involving the custody of her daughter, explains how she is only allowed to communicate with her daughter through FaceTime, video conference and three-way calls.
“I can’t see her anymore, for now,” Jessica is quoted as saying.
Before the Coronavirus outbreak, Jessica told NPR how her visits went with her daughter.
“I’m usually feeding her, singing to her, playing with her, we were bonding. It’s like [the virus] snatched it away from me now.”
To avoid the spread of the virus, child welfare services, foster agencies and family courts around the country are being forced to determine what requires in-person contact.
NPR reports, due to the coronavirus outbreak,
“New York City’s courts are only hearing cases that are deemed an emergency or essential. That means Jessica’s upcoming court appearance — when custody and visitation were supposed to be addressed — is now postponed for months. Services provided to families are also slowing down.”
Anya Mukarji-Connolly, supervising attorney at Brooklyn Defender Services, the organization representing Jessica in her case, told reporter Fadel,
“One of our biggest concerns is the slowdown in family court. We don’t know yet how this is going to impact our clients, but we know that it’s going to be terrible.”
Other states have also temporarily suspended all in-person parental visits.
Maine’s Office of Child and Family Services wrote in a letter on their website, addressed to both foster and adoptive parents,
“To ensure that OCFS is remaining connected to youth, parents, and resource parents, it is expected that staff will coordinate contact to occur through phone calls or video conferencing for any families that need to be seen by the end of April 2020.”
In California, Los Angeles County courts are suspended through April 16th for all “non-emergency and non-essential matters.”
According to NPR,
“Los Angeles County has the largest child welfare system in the country and right now it says it is fully staffed and continuing in-home visits, placements and removals, while also assessing what in-person contact is absolutely necessary. It’s also providing protective gear to its staff.”
Bobby Cagle, the director of the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services is quoted by Fadel as saying,
“Much of the work that we do is emergency basis, and that means that we have to appear at the home unannounced.
When we do that, we try to equip those workers first with the kind of masks, eye protection, gloves and gowns that they need in the event that they encounter a family member who is, or could be, sick.”
The story reports,
Cagle is managing a system of some 9,000 staff who serve about 34,000 children at any given time.
“The work of child protection is a 24-hour a day, seven days a week endeavor across our country,” Cagle says.
“And just like police protection and fire protection, our services continue throughout the crisis and the social distancing.”
Fadel points out,
“The same isolation that is supposed to keep people healthy could also be detrimental for a child who is being mistreated.”
Cagle tells Fadel that calls to the child protection hotline are down due to schools being closed, and teachers and school staff, who normally have an eye out for alleged abuse, aren’t seeing kids.
This has led Cagle to call on the public to watch for signs of abuse and neglect and to call the Child Protection Hotline.
Cagle told NPR,
“I very strongly encourage the public to remain vigilant about the safety of children in families,” he says.
“This is a time of increased stress and we know from the work that we do that this can also cause an uptick in maltreatment of children. And so we want to be very much on the watch for that.”
For now, Jessica will have to continue any contact with her daughter via FaceTime and phone calls. Her upcoming court appearances have now been postponed for months, based on the report by NPR.
The services provided to families have also slowed down. Jessica’s supervising attorney, Mukarji-Connolly, says,
“Not having access to services, not having access to visitation, it’s certainly going to be harmful to the families, but also we anticipate it will delay reunification.”
