That ’ s the next big government program to push for total surveillance over our lives .

Mr Gould told the Science and Technology Committee the app would be “ technically ready ” for deployment in “ two to three weeks ” – but made it clear it was only one part of the strategy to emerge from lockdown and would involve a none-too-subtle marketing campaign .

See how this works ?
First you destroy people ’ s lives , then you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out the inept and continue paying the enforcers , ensuring they are fed .

I ’ m pretty sure when I read The Scarlet Letter in high school , we didn ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ guy .
Because the person who is COVID-19 positive will now have a big red “ CV ” on them which will limit their ability to partake in society .
The next stage will be to force them to lock themselves down in isolation or face the depredations of the State .
And even if we begin to ignore such insanity , the next step will be to look the other way when the contact tracers become belligerent .
This is all about keeping everyone in a heightened state of fear at all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about a stupid germ and everyone else will be worried about what the Karens will do .

Contact Tracing? Really?
That’s the next big government program to push for total surveillance over our lives. Now the real fallout from the Coronapocalypse comes to light.
The very people who created a fake pandemic out of faulty statistics, media fear-pimping and the rankest of propaganda are now pushing the total surveillance state to protect us (them?) from the next crisis.
James Corbett from the Corbett Report just published an excellent video discussing ‘contact tracing’ as promulgated by (who else?) the Clinton Global Initiative to create an army of new Brown Shirts to assist our wise and benevolent leaders in managing us like livestock.
James is urging us not to use their Orwellian term, and I agree with him. But the best way to do that is to make fun of it and them.
I propose just looking at them and saying, “Don’t Trace Me, Bro.”
As always, when they want to herd us towards a terrible idea, they first have to come up with a harmless sounding euphemism for it. Either that or just call it a war that we’re going to fight and win together, you know, for kids!
But this was always the plan with this virus. We can speculate as to why this has been done, why it was directed from the commanding heights of our society but, in the end, that speculation is irrelevant.
This is happening, it’s here and they are now working to square the circle. The goal is to finish off the last vestiges of anonymity and individuality started with the destruction of financial privacy during the Clinton Adminstration, which was wrapped in the classic government phrases “Know Your Customer” and “Anti-Money Laundering”
Now those sets of rules which got ramped up after 9/11 dominate the global financial landscape.
But, let’s look at what’s happened with COVID-19 step-by-step.
First, a virus shows up in China which people at the highest levels of our government were briefed about as early as November, if Pepe Escobar’s research is to be believed:
The gold standard remains the ABC News report according to which intel collected in November 2019 by the National Center for Medical Intelligence (NCMI), a subsidiary of the Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), was already warning about a new virulent contagion getting out of hand in Wuhan, based on “detailed analysis of intercepted communications and satellite imagery”. An unnamed source told ABC, “analysts concluded it could be a cataclysmic event”, adding the intel was “briefed multiple times” to the DIA, the Pentagon’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, and even the White House.
Next China, the gold standard for the Orwellian Panopticon (pictured), proceeds to use that Panopticon to prove to the world how effective government can be in containing a deadly plague.
That model, which runs fundamentally counter to billions of years of evolution and basic immunology, is then propagated around the Western world to combat COVID-19, a disease which has a mortality rate similar to the annual flu, to shut down those economies exacerbating a financial crisis already fully underway.
This destroys the lives of hundreds of millions of people. It creates economic dislocations that make the Great Depression look like a mild recession.
In places like Italy, France and Spain, where youth unemployment has been in double digits for more than a decade, the lock down was used as a way to tamp down social unrest, as they were hot beds for opposition to inept and increasingly fascistic governments.
In the U.S., a country ruled by old, ideologically-possessed and corrupt Boomers who have been in a heightened state of fear since Donald Trump was elected saw the opportunity to create the worst possible outcome in places like New York and California.
Governors in blue states seized power they didn’t legally have and cried for help they didn’t need.
And the confusion and disinformation about the virus created so much fear, people willingly huddled in their homes hoping the angel of death passed them by with nothing more to do than be glued to the death counter in a desperate bid to stay informed about the science.
But there weren’t two million dead in the U.S. There’s around 50,000 and those death statistics are very specious since the people reporting them have motive, means and opportunity to inflate them to get Federal aid, advance their political agendas now on full display and cover their asses.
So, now ‘contact tracing’ – which is just a euphemism for total surveillance. But they are admitting that they can’t do it themselves. They need help. In totalitarian governments like the U.K., they’ll have an app in a couple of weeks.
Matthew Gould also disclosed plans to log the location of whenever two or more people are in close proximity for minutes at a time.
That will disturb privacy campaigners.
Ya think?
Mr Gould told the Science and Technology Committee the app would be “technically ready” for deployment in “two to three weeks” – but made it clear it was only one part of the strategy to emerge from lockdown and would involve a none-too-subtle marketing campaign.
“If you want to protect the NHS and stop it being overwhelmed and, at the same time, want to get the economy moving, then the app is going to be part of an essential part of a strategy for doing that,” he said.
China already has this. All across the enlightened West, countries will now recruit tens of thousands of ‘contact tracers’ to go out and build their network for them, just like Gavin Newsome and Andrew Cuomo discussed with Bill Clinton in the video linked above.
And since there are now tens of millions of people out of work desperate for a job of any sort, finding recruits will be easy.
See how this works?
First you destroy people’s lives, then you print trillions in funny money to bail out the inept and continue paying the enforcers, ensuring they are fed. And then when desperation reaches its peak, you create a new government program and turn people into snitches to ensure compliance.
We’re going to empower the worst busybodies who are already insane with fear to run around collecting data for the government.
All in the name of getting the economy back up and running!
I’m pretty sure when I read The Scarlet Letter in high school, we didn’t consider Hester Prynne to be the bad guy. Because the person who is COVID-19 positive will now have a big red “CV” on them which will limit their ability to partake in society.
The next stage will be to force them to lock themselves down in isolation or face the depredations of the State. And even if we begin to ignore such insanity, the next step will be to look the other way when the contact tracers become belligerent.
This is all about keeping everyone in a heightened state of fear at all times. The Karens will be worried about a stupid germ and everyone else will be worried about what the Karens will do.
Because what good is this app if it doesn’t report you to the authorities who know where you are?
So the solution to a virus and the incompetence of our governments is to turn busy bodies into brown shirts and COVID positives into social pariahs.
Do you realize what happens when you don’t pay a parking ticket now? Eventually your licence gets suspended, then your car insurance gets canceled. If you don’t turn your tag in for not having insurance, then you are risking jail time when you get stopped by the police. They arrest you for driving on a suspended licence, impound your car, and the entire ordeal becomes a bureaucratic nightmare.
The moral of the story? Pay your parking ticket, obviously.
But not because you were a bad person or committed a heinous crime. But because you broke the rules. If you don’t follow the State’s rules, no matter how petty, no matter how assinine, you will be punished to the full extent of the law.
Do you really think this ‘contact tracing’ system won’t end up in the same kind of hell?
Now you’re a documented threat to other people’s lives! You’re an evil spreader, man! Think of the children!
The State is only good at two things: Killing people and creating perverse incentives.
And if this isn’t a classic case of creating the perverse incentive of destroying civilization in order to save it I don’t know what is?
This is the real danger of 5G technology. It isn’t China having a backdoor embedded by Huawei, it is the State having the ability to blanket the world in high bandwidth snooping devices everywhere that people congregate.
Their system is failing before our eyes. It’s a system born of corrupt money begetting ever greater institutional corruption. They wouldn’t be pushing for this total surveillance if they weren’t uniquely paranoid about our readiness to throw them overboard.
They want us snitching on each other and suspect of each other. This is the most pernicious form of social control ever devised, to distrust basic human contact and interaction because there are germs in the world.
It’s time to end the mass hallucination that we’ve never dealt with something like this before. The mass branding of this COVID-19 as the plague is laughable, and the push for global surveillance is pathetic.
Unfortunately, we live in a world today where the fearful are empowered by the powerful to mob the non-compliant. COVID-19 isn’t the plague folks. If you think it’s the crisis you should be fearful of I urge you to seek therapy not the false security of a government tracking app.

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-30--Is Pentagon Producing Biological Weapons in the Amazon Rainforest?

The theme of biological warfare has gained increasing prominence in recent times .
The global pandemic of the new coronavirus has aroused interest in this matter in particular , and several speculations have arisen by experts from many countries about the possibility of an artificial origin of the virus that currently plagues the planet .
In fact , it doesn ’ t matter if this particular virus was created in laboratory or not , but the use of biological manipulation for military purposes is a complex subject and worthy of careful study .
The interest in the issue is absolutely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go beyond the sphere of “ conspiracy theories ” to acquire an academic character .
Recently , some alleged cases of biological weapons operations have received due attention thanks to the suspicions raised by the pandemic .
This is the case for American military laboratories in the Amazon rainforest .

It is already known that many of these laboratories have or have had an active participation in the drug @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hidden in the Amazon .
The most notorious laboratory is the so-called NAMRU-6 , which belongs to the American Navy .
The “ Observatory for the Closing of the School of the Americas ” reported in a note that research into several bacteriological and tropical diseases is being carried out in the Peruvian Amazon by the NAMRU-6 base .
“ In Peru , the United States has a number of military bases , some allegedly involved in drug trafficking , ” said Pablo Ruiz , spokesman for the observatory , emphasizing : NAMRU-6 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is an American Navy biomedical research center based in Lima , Peru ( see map ) .
Publicly , Washington states that the interest of the research carried out by the base is the identification and control of infectious diseases and the development of medications for their control .
However , there are several suspicions about the real nature of its activities , with the hypothesis of clandestine operations on biological manipulation being strongly considered .
According to the Observatory ( which is a social movement that fights for the end of foreign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NAMRU is behind the creation of several biological weapons , many of which have already been used in combat by the USA .
The Observatory spokesman reported that the investigations being carried out on NAMRU suggest that this base was behind the epidemic of hemorrhagic dengue fever in Cuba in 1981 , which caused the death of hundreds of people .
The hypothesis has gained even more strength now that evidence has been found of the use of the mosquito “ aedes eagypt ” ( host of the virus that transmits dengue and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the Pentagon in several regions of the planet , as described in several official documents recently revealed .
Pablo Ruiz argued that the UN bodies responsible for the control of weapons of mass destruction should work more closely with regard to biological weapons and seek greater control over the activities carried out by military laboratories .
In his words : “ In the situation that humanity is currently experiencing , it would be very good if the UN body that ensures that no country produces weapons of mass destruction could visit this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there with infectious diseases ” .
In fact , too much attention has been paid in recent decades to the danger of nuclear weapons proliferation ; biological weapons , however , are almost never seriously treated , with almost all complaints on the subject being referred to as “ conspiratorial ” .

Experts from Russia , China , Iran and several other nationalities have all raised this hypothesis about the new coronavirus .

The theme of biological warfare has gained increasing prominence in recent times.

In fact, it doesn’t matter if this particular virus was created in laboratory or not, but the use of biological manipulation for military purposes is a complex subject and worthy of careful study. The interest in the issue is absolutely legitimate and allows such a debate to go beyond the sphere of “conspiracy theories” to acquire an academic character.
Recently, some alleged cases of biological weapons operations have received due attention thanks to the suspicions raised by the pandemic. This is the case for American military laboratories in the Amazon rainforest. Although little is said about this subject, the American armed forces maintain several laboratories for obscure research purposes within the Amazon territory. It is already known that many of these laboratories have or have had an active participation in the drug production process by drug trafficking criminal organizations hidden in the Amazon. The most notorious laboratory is the so-called NAMRU-6, which belongs to the American Navy.
The “Observatory for the Closing of the School of the Americas” reported in a note that research into several bacteriological and tropical diseases is being carried out in the Peruvian Amazon by the NAMRU-6 base. “In Peru, the United States has a number of military bases, some allegedly involved in drug trafficking,” said Pablo Ruiz, spokesman for the observatory, emphasizing:
“This is a military base that we are monitoring, which belongs to the US Navy. […] (NAMRU) Conducts research on pathological and infectious diseases, and we are very concerned because it is close to the Amazon, and eventually on that military base they could be preparing biological weapons”.
NAMRU-6 (Naval Medical Research Unit Six) is an American Navy biomedical research center based in Lima, Peru (see map). Publicly, Washington states that the interest of the research carried out by the base is the identification and control of infectious diseases and the development of medications for their control. However, there are several suspicions about the real nature of its activities, with the hypothesis of clandestine operations on biological manipulation being strongly considered. According to the Observatory (which is a social movement that fights for the end of foreign military bases in Latin America), NAMRU is behind the creation of several biological weapons, many of which have already been used in combat by the USA.
The Observatory spokesman reported that the investigations being carried out on NAMRU suggest that this base was behind the epidemic of hemorrhagic dengue fever in Cuba in 1981, which caused the death of hundreds of people.

In fact, too much attention has been paid in recent decades to the danger of nuclear weapons proliferation; biological weapons, however, are almost never seriously treated, with almost all complaints on the subject being referred to as “conspiratorial”. The reason for this is understandable: when used, biological weapons transmit an atmosphere of “normality”, as they deal with natural phenomena that are artificially manipulated.

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-30--FBI Lied, Hid Evidence, Covered Up State of Disorder

Notorious for failing in its duty to thwart terrorist attacks , the Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) is under fire again , this time from a bipartisan group of U.S .
Senators who want the beleaguered law enforcement agency investigated for “ major abnormalities ” involving evidence in a terrorism case .
Known for its corrupt method of operating , the FBI appears to be hiding evidence critical to a pending Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act ( JASTA ) lawsuit brought by family members of 9/11 victims .
Two years ago , the FBI received a civil @ @ @ @ @ @ @ believe the agency has committed numerous violations and may be trying to conceal that its “ investigative files are in a state of disorder.
” In a letter to the FBI watchdog , the Department of Justice Inspector General ( DOJ IG ) , the senators write about “ troubling reports concerning the FBI ’ s irregular treatment of a civil subpoena issued by the September 11 families.
” The lawmakers , New York Democrat Charles Schumer , Iowa Republican Charles Grassley and Connecticut Democrat Richard Blumenthal mention half a dozen concerns that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ including the FBI ’ s refusal to conduct methodological searches of its electronic databases , “ instead empowering FBI officials with inherent conflicts of interest to hand-select the materials to be considered for possible production , and to control the information that is produced.
” Judicial Watch has regularly encountered similar obstacles over the years in efforts to obtain public records from the FBI , most recently involving the shady anti-Trump “ dossier ” masterminded by corrupt FBI officials plotting against the president .
Last month the FBI used coronavirus as an excuse @ @ @ @ @ @ @ operations .
In the 9/11 lawsuit families are seeking information about the FBI ’ s investigation of two Saudi Arabian government employees—Omar al Bayoumi and Fahad al Thumairy—who provided 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al Hazmiand and Khalid al Mihdhar and their accomplices “ substantial assistance.
” Thumairy was a Saudi consular official in Los Angeles and his ties to the hijackers are detailed in a once-classified portion of the 9/11 Commission Report that was declassified in 2016 .

Shocker: FBI Lied, Hid Evidence, Covered Up State of Disorder
Family members of 9/11 victims still looking for answers from FBI ~(TLB) ed.
JUDICIAL WATCH
Notorious for failing in its duty to thwart terrorist attacks, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is under fire again, this time from a bipartisan group of U.S. Senators who want the beleaguered law enforcement agency investigated for “major abnormalities” involving evidence in a terrorism case. Known for its corrupt method of operating, the FBI appears to be hiding evidence critical to a pending Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA) lawsuit brought by family members of 9/11 victims. Two years ago, the FBI received a civil subpoena in the case and the lawmakers believe the agency has committed numerous violations and may be trying to conceal that its “investigative files are in a state of disorder.”
In a letter to the FBI watchdog, the Department of Justice Inspector General (DOJ IG), the senators write about “troubling reports concerning the FBI’s irregular treatment of a civil subpoena issued by the September 11 families.” The lawmakers, New York Democrat Charles Schumer, Iowa Republican Charles Grassley and Connecticut Democrat Richard Blumenthal mention half a dozen concerns that merit a probe by the IG, including the FBI’s refusal to conduct methodological searches of its electronic databases, “instead empowering FBI officials with inherent conflicts of interest to hand-select the materials to be considered for possible production, and to control the information that is produced.” Judicial Watch has regularly encountered similar obstacles over the years in efforts to obtain public records from the FBI, most recently involving the shady anti-Trump “dossier” masterminded by corrupt FBI officials plotting against the president. Last month the FBI used coronavirus as an excuse to shut down its electronic public records operations.
In the 9/11 lawsuit families are seeking information about the FBI’s investigation of two Saudi Arabian government employees—Omar al Bayoumi and Fahad al Thumairy—who provided 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al Hazmiand and Khalid al Mihdhar and their accomplices “substantial assistance.” Thumairy was a Saudi consular official in Los Angeles and his ties to the hijackers are detailed in a once-classified portion of the 9/11 Commission Report that was declassified in 2016. In the spring of 2018 attorneys representing the 9/11 families served a civil subpoena on the FBI for the information critical to their case, but there may have been major abnormalities in the FBI’s handling of that subpoena that deserve the inspector general’s attention, the lawmakers write.
Here is what the veteran legislators allege that merits a probe; departures from established processes for responding to civil discovery demands, which would violate the FBI’s legal obligation and are designed to guard against conflicts of interest within the agency; misstatements to the federal court presiding over the litigation about the actual status of investigations; misstatements to the federal court regarding the sensitivity of the evidence being sought, including efforts to conceal original classification designations; efforts to conceal that the FBI’s investigative files are in a state of disorder; efforts to conceal the fact that key investigative materials collected after the attacks were never properly analyzed; refusal to conduct methodological searches of FBI’s electronic databases, instead empowering FBI officials with inherent conflicts of interest to hand-select the materials to be considered for possible production and to control the information that is produced.
“These allegations by the families raise questions as to whether FBI personnel may be acting in improper ways to withhold evidence the 9/11 families are entitled to receive, and that this obstruction may be driven by an effort to shield the Bureau and individual FBI officials from embarrassment,” the senators write. “Obviously, any irregularities, abuse, fraud, or improprieties in the handling of the 9/11 families’ subpoena for evidence are entirely unacceptable.” The lashing continues: “The September 11 attacks represent a singular and defining tragedy in the history of our Nation. Nearly twenty years later, the 9/11 families and American public still have not received the full and transparent accounting of the potential sources of support for those attacks to which they are entitled. Circumstances that leave the impression that our government is hiding facts about 9/11 from the families and public tear at the very fabric of our democracy and erode trust in our government.”

thelibertybeacon--2020-04-30--Is Pharma Censoring Science at a Major University by Choking the Money Channel?

Is Pharma Censoring the Science at One Major University by Choking the Money Channel ?
Keele University recently returned a $ 15,000 check that I contributed to support research by the world ’ s leading authority on aluminum toxicity , Keele ’ s own Dr. Christopher Exley .
That surprising act reveals the pharmaceutical industry ’ s ruthless and impenetrable power over the world ’ s educational institutions and scientific research .
Dr. Exley is the British university ’ s Professor of Bioinorganic Chemistry .
He is the world ’ s most notable expert on aluminum poisoning .
Unfortunately for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ focused on the pharmaceutical industry ’ s dramatic expansion of its use of aluminum as an adjuvant in medicines , including vaccines , over the past two decades .
Pharma embarked on that trend largely without critical attention to aluminum ’ s well-documented adverse impacts on human cells and organs .
A few brave , independent scientists have moved to fill this vacuum ; Dr. Chris Exley is by far the most renowned and prolific .
Exley believes that a better understanding of the neurological and physiological effects of injected aluminum is crucial @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccination programs around the globe .
Exley ’ s research efforts have documented grave toxic effects of aluminum exposures on human health .
Towards the end of last year , I learned that future research in Dr Exley ’ s laboratory was in jeopardy if he was unable to raise further research funding .
Fearing that his critical research would wither , I sent a personal check for $ 15,000 to Exley via Keele .
I never expected that my donation would be rejected .
I ’ ve never heard of any university @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with no corporate conflicts .
Furthermore , Keele had already gained notoriety throughout academia for ethical elasticity when cash donations are at stake .
In 2018 , University officials made the extremely controversial decision to accept $ 11.2 million from a sketchy online betting syndicate .
Keele ’ s decision to return my donation was therefore somewhat baffling .
I am an environmental and public health advocate and attorney who has spent years successfully suing the world ’ s biggest polluters and pharmaceutical companies in the public interest .
Below is the back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ situation at Keele .
I am writing to acknowledge receipt of your very generous cheque of $ 15,000 towards the research of Professor Christopher Exley , who is based here at Keele University .
Although carrying out various research projects in his field of Bioinorganic Chemistry of Aluminium & Silicon , the area in which Professor Exley is most actively and widely followed relates to his work on vaccinations .
This has particularly garnered interest overseas .
Whilst the University is keen to support all its academics and wholly embraces freedom in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ undeniably controversial research fields of which the University is tolerant : but for which accepting any large donations from prominent public figures or foundations could place the institution in an ethical and reputational predicament .
To do so could generate potentially negative media coverage and may also jeopardise the strong relationships it holds with its existing major funders and partners .
It is for this reason that following careful consideration we have taken the difficult decision not to accept your donation to Professor Exley ’ s research , and trust that this decision @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is intended from this outcome .
We appreciate your interest in the University and in our research staff who are undertaking such a wide range of interesting and pioneering work , but hope you understand the delicate balance we must maintain to ensure our public and private reputation .
Please find enclosed your original cheque for the appropriate attention .
Letter from Miri Finch ( née Sloboda ) to Professor David Amigoni About My Rejected Check Keele holds a very special place in my heart , and I follow its fortunes very closely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for its uniqueness and independence , bucking conventions right from its inception .
So it was not a surprise to me when I discovered , in 2015 , that one of the most innovative and pioneering scientists of his generation , Professor Chris Exley , was based at Keele .
I happened across Professor Exley ’ s work due to an increasing interest in issues of informed consent surrounding medical products and procedures , something that is , sadly , woefully lacking where it comes to vaccinations .
The NHS and other providers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ own guidelines of informed consent , as per the Montgomery ruling , where it comes to vaccinations and their possible risks , and this is a very serious matter indeed .
When further investigating this subject , I found that there was relatively little research being undertaken into the risks of vaccination , so I was most gratified to have discovered Professor Exley and his stellar research into aluminium – a common vaccine ingredient .
Inspired by conversations with Professor Exley and others , I decided to launch my own vaccine education site @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I know from experience are not given the full facts about vaccinations , but rather are , often , aggressively bullied into them instead .
You can see my site here : www.striveuk.webs.com .
Since 2015 , I have not only continued to follow and admire Professor Exley ’ s great work , but he has also become a good personal friend .
So you can imagine my shock and disappointment when I learned last year that Keele was making it difficult for him to receive research donations to continue his vital research @ @ @ @ @ @ @ able to resolve this issue with Keele , about which I was very pleased and relieved – and so I was utterly astonished and horrified when I learned of the most recent development – that Keele had returned a generous research donation to Professor Exley from Robert F. Kennedy , Jr. , because it might fuel research that would spark negative media attention !
Professor Exley shared this information with longstanding colleague and confidante , Professor John Sloboda , and Professor Sloboda – my father – shared it with me .
Having read @ @ @ @ @ @ @ regarding rejecting his donation , I find it to be quite devastating to my perceptions of Keele and everything I believed it stood for – and has stood for many decades in my family ’ s history .
This letter openly states that allowing Professor Exley to receive funding from certain high-profile sources to continue his critical and world-class research might a ) upset other funders ( I assume you mean pharmaceutical ones ) , and b ) generate bad press .
This is quite shocking .
A university is supposed to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the forefront of challenging the establishment and fearlessly confronting dogmas and corruption , not refusing to carry out sensitive research because it might upset rich people and media CEOs .
As you are undoubtedly aware , safety testing around vaccinations is wholly inadequate , and , as Professor Exley ’ s research has so clearly elucidated , a significant subsection of the population are at risk of serious , life-changing ( and even life-ending ) reactions as a result .
To quash research that would seek to further understand – and therefore potentially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Have you ever met families dealing with vaccine injury ?
I have .
Their lives are irreparably devastated , and they will be caring for profoundly damaged children and adults for the rest of their lives – with very little help or support from the wider world ( who generally demonise and dismiss them as crazy anti-vaxxers ) .
These families want nothing more than the recognition and support they deserve for submitting to a procedure they believed would protect their children ’ s health , but in fact did just the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the few scientists brave enough to carry out such research , and Keele should be offering their unerring praise and support .
Instead , they treat him , in his words , as a pariah .
This saddens me extremely deeply , and casts a very dark shadow on what I thought was one of the best , most pioneering and progressive , places on Earth .
I hope very much that you will reconsider your decision to reject Mr. Kennedy ’ s generous research donation .
As you will be aware , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the forefront of taking on the corrupt establishment for several generations , quite literally risking their own lives in the process .
This is a true mark of integrity , something I sincerely believed was at the heart of Keele ’ s values , too .
I hope you will not prove me wrong .
Email from Professor David Amigoni to Professor Sloboda and Miri Finch Thank you for the letter that you sent to me , copying in the Vice-Chancellor and the Academic Registrar and Secretary .
I have consulted with my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reply on behalf of us all .
We regret that you find our decision disappointing ; however , we stand by our decision .
As I am sure you will appreciate , we are not in a position to discuss further with a third party the rationale for our decision concerning a donation .
That we did so with Professor Exley was out of courtesy and transparency , as I said to him in my covering e-mail : Professor Exley was independently aware of the donation having been offered .
In your letter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ approach to Professor Exley ’ s research .
We handle this in accordance with the protocols of research governance and integrity to which all researchers in the university are expected to adhere .
If I may conclude with a moment of personal recognition : thank you for reminding me of your family connections .
In fact , xxxxx was a neighbour of mine for a number of years : I would count her as a friend .
May I thank you for the deep and valued contribution that your family has made to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ university .
With all good wishes , I was disappointed to receive your letter returning my personal $ 15,000 donation supporting Professor Exley ’ s aluminum research .
The donation had no strings attached .
I left it entirely to Professor Exley and Keele to decide how to spend my money .
Professor Exley is the world ’ s leading expert in aluminum toxicity .
His pioneering work on aluminum has already had myriad global impacts in manufacturing , food production and packaging , and medicine .
I would expect Keele to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ internationally respected research contributions .
You explain that accepting my donation could “ jeopardize the strong relationships [ Keele ] holds with its existing major funders and partners ” .
I assume that you mean to imply that some well-meaning philanthropist donor might have stumbled across , and believes , the defamatory pharmaceutical industry slur that I am “ anti-vaccine ” .
If that is indeed the case , it still seems unfair to punish Dr. Exley—and those who benefit from his research—for a strategic slander against me that is patently inaccurate .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ I am not “ anti-vaccine ” .
I want safe vaccines , robust science and uncorrupted regulators .
By calling me “ anti-vax ” , vaccine companies seek to discredit , marginalize , silence me so as to prevent me from raising legitimate , urgent questions about the thoroughness of vaccine safety and efficacy assessments .
I have never made a statement that could be legitimately construed as “ anti-vaccine ” .
To the contrary , I have spent my 37-year career as an environmental and public health advocate fighting for evidence-based science @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prevailed in many hundreds of lawsuits against the world ’ s largest polluters and I have helped build , and currently run , the globe ’ s largest water protection group ; Waterkeeper Alliance , the umbrella organization of 350 Waterkeepers in 48 nations—including the U.K .
I spent much of the past three decades fighting to get mercury out of fish , pesticides out of food , and to decarbonize our energy system .
No one calls me “ anti-fish ” , “ anti-food ” , or “ anti-energy ” .
Nor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attempts to dismiss me as “ anti-vaccine ” simply because I have challenged the use of heavy metals such as mercury and aluminum in vaccines .
The only people with genuine reason to object to my donation are the vaccine industry , it ’ s stakeholders , and captive regulators .
I presume that these are the cohorts who actually pressured you to reject my donation .
Having spent 37 years as a law professor on a university faculty , it seems self-evident to me that financially interested industries should not be dictating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ at any legitimate public institution .
Allowing industry to quash science for fear that it might expose profitable practices as harmful to public health , is offensive to every tenet of academic freedom , scientific integrity , ethics , and morality .
I must consider that your decision to return my personal check is likely the product of the pharmaceutical industry ’ s open , aggressive , and rather sinister campaign to defund Professor Exley .
Vaccine makers view Dr. Exley ’ s efforts to accurately characterize , for the first time , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccines , as a threat to their profit-taking .
Terminating Professor Exley ’ s research has been a central objective of the $ 50 billion vaccine industry .
This cartel wants the world to believe that aluminum in vaccines is safe despite the lack of any safety studies to indicate that is possible , and plenty of peer-reviewed literature that suggests that it is not .
Aluminum is a potent neurotoxin linked , in the published science , to brain injuries including IQ loss , dementia and Alzheimer ’ s disease .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to aluminum exposure as the culprit in injuries to every lifeform ; human , animal , insects , and plants .
Aluminum causes mutation and death to fetuses and newborns , and long-term harms to many body functions and processes , including breast cancer and allergic autoimmune diseases .
According to a 2015 study , “ Aluminum has long been identified as a neurotoxic metal , affecting memory , cognition and psychomotor control , altering neurotransmission and synaptic activity , damaging the blood brain barrier ( BBB ) , exerting pro-oxidant effects , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cerebral glucose metabolism and mitochondrial functions , interfering with transcriptional activity and promoting beta-amyloid and neurofilament aggregation.
” ( Gherardi et al .
( 05 February 2015 ) Frontiers in Neurology , available at Biopersistence and brain translocation of aluminum adjuvants of vaccines .
For these reasons , leading aluminum researchers have fiercely criticized its use in vaccines .
Aluminum exposure to the world ’ s children from recommended vaccines rose dramatically in the early 1990s .
Today an American infant at his two-month “ well baby ” appointment , receives total concentration @ @ @ @ @ @ @ times greater than FDA ’ s maximum allowed limit for IV feeding of an infant [ 1 ] .
Today ’ s generation of children receive 1,225 of aluminum at age 2 months , and 4,925 micrograms of aluminum by age 18 months [ 2 ] .
All people of goodwill should be applauding Dr. Exley ’ s groundbreaking studies on the health impacts of aluminum adjuvants .
Scientists , toxicologists , physicians , and public health regulators have long questioned the controversial use of aluminum in vaccines , urgently demanding definitive research @ @ @ @ @ @ @ claims .
In 2008 , two years after the FDA approved Gardasil—including its aluminum adjuvant—a panel of experts from the FDA , CDC , WHO , and the Gates Foundation , conceded that “ the adjuvant ’ s mechanism to produce immunity are not well understood , ” and that researchers have been “ relatively negligent ” about adjuvant toxicity .
That same year , Dr. Jesse L. Goodman , former director of the FDA ’ s vaccine program , Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research ( CBER ) urged caution in injecting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of vaccines , not to mention the toxicology of adjuvants , has been a really neglected area.
” [ 3 ] Dr. Christopher Exley is leading global efforts to end this neglect .
Dr. Exley is the world ’ s foremost authority on aluminum toxicity .
Pharmaceutical companies were particularly alarmed by his 2018 peer-reviewed study documenting extraordinarily high levels of aluminum in donor brain tissue from deceased individuals with autism .
Exley and his researchers found aluminum in the brain ’ s immune cells , the microglia , and the cells that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the glia .
[ 4 ] Exley ’ s studies suggested the possibility that aluminum adjuvants in vaccines are causing 15-year-old teenagers to accumulate aluminum in their brain comparable to senior citizens many decades older who had died of Alzheimer ’ s disease .
Shouldn ’ t we be interested in the answers to these questions ?
I would hope that Keele would proudly support Dr. Exley ’ s critical work , rather than to obstruct it .
For these reasons , I ask you to reconsider your unprecedented decision , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Thank you for your e-mail .
We regret , of course , that you are disappointed with our decision to decline your donation .
However , we stand by it .
Thank you for the very detailed points that you made , which I note .
I should like to point out , however , that any income that we , as a university , derive from the pharmaceutical industry is not only negligible , but immaterial to our thinking .
Our decision was principally motivated by our relationship with our major public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for Health Research and the Medical Research Council ; and our major public health provider , the National Health Service .
They were the truly important funders and partners to which we alluded in our original letter .
The public health advice that the NHS shares with our communities , nationally , is very important to us as university attached to a teaching hospital .
As we sought to underline in our letter , while it is always a sadness to decline generosity we did so in a spirit of goodwill .
We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ respect to you and your family .
The controversial $ 11.2 million donation made in November , 2019 was from Bet365 , a large online betting company based in Stoke-on-Tent , for the purposes of bulding a management center on the Keele campus .

Letter from Miri Finch (née Sloboda) to Professor David Amigoni About My Rejected Check
March 9, 2020
Keele holds a very special place in my heart, and I follow its fortunes very closely. I have always greatly admired Keele for its uniqueness and independence, bucking conventions right from its inception. So it was not a surprise to me when I discovered, in 2015, that one of the most innovative and pioneering scientists of his generation, Professor Chris Exley, was based at Keele.
I happened across Professor Exley’s work due to an increasing interest in issues of informed consent surrounding medical products and procedures, something that is, sadly, woefully lacking where it comes to vaccinations. The NHS and other providers of vaccination do not adhere to their own guidelines of informed consent, as per the Montgomery ruling, where it comes to vaccinations and their possible risks, and this is a very serious matter indeed. When further investigating this subject, I found that there was relatively little research being undertaken into the risks of vaccination, so I was most gratified to have discovered Professor Exley and his stellar research into aluminium – a common vaccine ingredient.
Inspired by conversations with Professor Exley and others, I decided to launch my own vaccine education site, aimed specifically at students, whom I know from experience are not given the full facts about vaccinations, but rather are, often, aggressively bullied into them instead. You can see my site here: www.striveuk.webs.com.
Since 2015, I have not only continued to follow and admire Professor Exley’s great work, but he has also become a good personal friend. So you can imagine my shock and disappointment when I learned last year that Keele was making it difficult for him to receive research donations to continue his vital research.

Having read the letter you sent to Mr. Kennedy regarding rejecting his donation, I find it to be quite devastating to my perceptions of Keele and everything I believed it stood for – and has stood for many decades in my family’s history. This letter openly states that allowing Professor Exley to receive funding from certain high-profile sources to continue his critical and world-class research might a) upset other funders (I assume you mean pharmaceutical ones), and b) generate bad press. This is quite shocking. A university is supposed to be a bastion of academic integrity, at the forefront of challenging the establishment and fearlessly confronting dogmas and corruption, not refusing to carry out sensitive research because it might upset rich people and media CEOs.
As you are undoubtedly aware, safety testing around vaccinations is wholly inadequate, and, as Professor Exley’s research has so clearly elucidated, a significant subsection of the population are at risk of serious, life-changing (and even life-ending) reactions as a result. To quash research that would seek to further understand – and therefore potentially prevent – these harms is utterly inexcusable. Have you ever met families dealing with vaccine injury? I have. Their lives are irreparably devastated, and they will be caring for profoundly damaged children and adults for the rest of their lives – with very little help or support from the wider world (who generally demonise and dismiss them as crazy anti-vaxxers).

Professor Exley is one of the few scientists brave enough to carry out such research, and Keele should be offering their unerring praise and support. Instead, they treat him, in his words, as a pariah.
This saddens me extremely deeply, and casts a very dark shadow on what I thought was one of the best, most pioneering and progressive, places on Earth.
I hope very much that you will reconsider your decision to reject Mr. Kennedy’s generous research donation. As you will be aware, he and his family have been at the forefront of taking on the corrupt establishment for several generations, quite literally risking their own lives in the process. This is a true mark of integrity, something I sincerely believed was at the heart of Keele’s values, too. I hope you will not prove me wrong.
(Please note that Professor Exley had no role in the composition of this letter, and certainly did not encourage me to write it.)
Yours sincerely,
Miri Finch (née Sloboda)

Email from Professor David Amigoni to Professor Sloboda and Miri Finch
March 14, 2020
Dear Professor Sobodda (sic) and Ms. Finch,
Thank you for the letter that you sent to me, copying in the Vice-Chancellor and the Academic Registrar and Secretary. I have consulted with my colleagues and am pleased to send a reply on behalf of us all.
We regret that you find our decision disappointing; however, we stand by our decision. As I am sure you will appreciate, we are not in a position to discuss further with a third party the rationale for our decision concerning a donation. That we did so with Professor Exley was out of courtesy and transparency, as I said to him in my covering e-mail: Professor Exley was independently aware of the donation having been offered.
In your letter, you include some observations about our approach to Professor Exley’s research. We handle this in accordance with the protocols of research governance and integrity to which all researchers in the university are expected to adhere.
If I may conclude with a moment of personal recognition: thank you for reminding me of your family connections. In fact, xxxxx was a neighbour of mine for a number of years: I would count her as a friend. May I thank you for the deep and valued contribution that your family has made to the academic and community life of the university.
With all good wishes,
David

I assume that you mean to imply that some well-meaning philanthropist donor might have stumbled across, and believes, the defamatory pharmaceutical industry slur that I am “anti-vaccine”. If that is indeed the case, it still seems unfair to punish Dr. Exley—and those who benefit from his research—for a strategic slander against me that is patently inaccurate.

Letter from Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to Professor David Amigoni
March 17, 2020
Dear Professor Amigoni,
I was disappointed to receive your letter returning my personal $15,000 donation supporting Professor Exley’s aluminum research. The donation had no strings attached. I left it entirely to Professor Exley and Keele to decide how to spend my money. Professor Exley is the world’s leading expert in aluminum toxicity. His pioneering work on aluminum has already had myriad global impacts in manufacturing, food production and packaging, and medicine. I would expect Keele to be proud and supportive of his groundbreaking and internationally respected research contributions.
You explain that accepting my donation could “jeopardize the strong relationships [Keele] holds with its existing major funders and partners”. I assume that you mean to imply that some well-meaning philanthropist donor might have stumbled across, and believes, the defamatory pharmaceutical industry slur that I am “anti-vaccine”. If that is indeed the case, it still seems unfair to punish Dr. Exley—and those who benefit from his research—for a strategic slander against me that is patently inaccurate. I have always made it clear that I am not “anti-vaccine”. I want safe vaccines, robust science and uncorrupted regulators. By calling me “anti-vax”, vaccine companies seek to discredit, marginalize, silence me so as to prevent me from raising legitimate, urgent questions about the thoroughness of vaccine safety and efficacy assessments.
I have never made a statement that could be legitimately construed as “anti-vaccine”. To the contrary, I have spent my 37-year career as an environmental and public health advocate fighting for evidence-based science, and science-based policy. I have prevailed in many hundreds of lawsuits against the world’s largest polluters and I have helped build, and currently run, the globe’s largest water protection group; Waterkeeper Alliance, the umbrella organization of 350 Waterkeepers in 48 nations—including the U.K. I spent much of the past three decades fighting to get mercury out of fish, pesticides out of food, and to decarbonize our energy system. No one calls me “anti-fish” , “anti-food”, or “anti-energy”. Nor should Pharma be given credence when it attempts to dismiss me as “anti-vaccine” simply because I have challenged the use of heavy metals such as mercury and aluminum in vaccines.
The only people with genuine reason to object to my donation are the vaccine industry, it’s stakeholders, and captive regulators. I presume that these are the cohorts who actually pressured you to reject my donation.
Having spent 37 years as a law professor on a university faculty, it seems self-evident to me that financially interested industries should not be dictating the content of scholarly and scientific research at any legitimate public institution. Allowing industry to quash science for fear that it might expose profitable practices as harmful to public health, is offensive to every tenet of academic freedom, scientific integrity, ethics, and morality.
Vaccine makers view Dr. Exley’s efforts to accurately characterize, for the first time, the health impacts of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines, as a threat to their profit-taking. Vaccine makers view Dr. Exley’s efforts to accurately characterize, for the first time, the health impacts of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines, as a threat to their profit-taking.
I must consider that your decision to return my personal check is likely the product of the pharmaceutical industry’s open, aggressive, and rather sinister campaign to defund Professor Exley. Vaccine makers view Dr. Exley’s efforts to accurately characterize, for the first time, the health impacts of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines, as a threat to their profit-taking. Terminating Professor Exley’s research has been a central objective of the $50 billion vaccine industry. This cartel wants the world to believe that aluminum in vaccines is safe despite the lack of any safety studies to indicate that is possible, and plenty of peer-reviewed literature that suggests that it is not.
Aluminum is a potent neurotoxin linked, in the published science, to brain injuries including IQ loss, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. The medical literature includes hundreds of articles pointing to aluminum exposure as the culprit in injuries to every lifeform; human, animal, insects, and plants. Aluminum causes mutation and death to fetuses and newborns, and long-term harms to many body functions and processes, including breast cancer and allergic autoimmune diseases. According to a 2015 study, “Aluminum has long been identified as a neurotoxic metal, affecting memory, cognition and psychomotor control, altering neurotransmission and synaptic activity, damaging the blood brain barrier (BBB), exerting pro-oxidant effects, activating microglia and neuro-inflammation, depressing the cerebral glucose metabolism and mitochondrial functions, interfering with transcriptional activity and promoting beta-amyloid and neurofilament aggregation.” (Gherardi et al. (05 February 2015) Frontiers in Neurology, available at Biopersistence and brain translocation of aluminum adjuvants of vaccines. For these reasons, leading aluminum researchers have fiercely criticized its use in vaccines.
Aluminum exposure to the world’s children from recommended vaccines rose dramatically in the early 1990s. Today an American infant at his two-month “well baby” appointment, receives total concentration of injected aluminum adjuvants that is 49 times greater than FDA’s maximum allowed limit for IV feeding of an infant [1]. Today’s generation of children receive 1,225 of aluminum at age 2 months, and 4,925 micrograms of aluminum by age 18 months[2].
All people of goodwill should be applauding Dr. Exley’s groundbreaking studies on the health impacts of aluminum adjuvants. Scientists, toxicologists, physicians, and public health regulators have long questioned the controversial use of aluminum in vaccines, urgently demanding definitive research on the industry’s unsupported safety claims.
In 2008, two years after the FDA approved Gardasil—including its aluminum adjuvant—a panel of experts from the FDA, CDC, WHO, and the Gates Foundation, conceded that “the adjuvant’s mechanism to produce immunity are not well understood,” and that researchers have been “relatively negligent” about adjuvant toxicity. That same year, Dr. Jesse L. Goodman, former director of the FDA’s vaccine program, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) urged caution in injecting aluminum into children. “The toxicology of vaccines, not to mention the toxicology of adjuvants, has been a really neglected area.”[3]
Dr. Christopher Exley is leading global efforts to end this neglect. Dr. Exley is the world’s foremost authority on aluminum toxicity. Pharmaceutical companies were particularly alarmed by his 2018 peer-reviewed study documenting extraordinarily high levels of aluminum in donor brain tissue from deceased individuals with autism. Exley and his researchers found aluminum in the brain’s immune cells, the microglia, and the cells that provide support and protection for the neurons, the glia. [4] Exley’s studies suggested the possibility that aluminum adjuvants in vaccines are causing 15-year-old teenagers to accumulate aluminum in their brain comparable to senior citizens many decades older who had died of Alzheimer’s disease. Shouldn’t we be interested in the answers to these questions?

I would hope that Keele would proudly support Dr. Exley’s critical work, rather than to obstruct it. For these reasons, I ask you to reconsider your unprecedented decision, and accept my contribution for Dr. Exley.
Sincerely,
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Email from Professor David Amigoni to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
March 18, 2020
Dear Mr. Kennedy,
Thank you for your e-mail. We regret, of course, that you are disappointed with our decision to decline your donation. However, we stand by it. Thank you for the very detailed points that you made, which I note. I should like to point out, however, that any income that we, as a university, derive from the pharmaceutical industry is not only negligible, but immaterial to our thinking. Our decision was principally motivated by our relationship with our major public health research funders, the National Institute for Health Research and the Medical Research Council; and our major public health provider, the National Health Service. They were the truly important funders and partners to which we alluded in our original letter. The public health advice that the NHS shares with our communities, nationally, is very important to us as university attached to a teaching hospital.
As we sought to underline in our letter, while it is always a sadness to decline generosity we did so in a spirit of goodwill. We continue to express our goodwill and enduring respect to you and your family.
Sincerely,
Professor David Amigoni

Postscript
The controversial $11.2 million donation made in November, 2019 was from Bet365, a large online betting company based in Stoke-on-Tent, for the purposes of bulding a management center on the Keele campus. The center is named after the CEO of Bet365, Denise Coates. Officially, the contribution came from Ms. Coates’ foundation. Last year, Keele received $49.6 million in funding classified only as “other” in the financial records. It’s a fair guess that at least some of this funding came from drug companies including vaccine manufacturers.
Conflicts of interest between academic research institutions and the pharmaceutical industry hamper the ability to conduct genuine scientific inquiry into topics deemed off-limits by vaccine makers. These same conflicts also negatively impact our ability as concerned citizens to support efforts that would shed light on the true effect of vaccines and vaccine ingredients upon the health of our children. Children’s Health Defense encourages the support of the most promising research for future generations such as that of Dr. Exley.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
