Fiercest Economic Collapse Month in History is Best Month for Stock Market Who coulda guessed these would be yesterday ’ s 4 p.m. CNBC headlines ?
It was the best of times , it was the worst of times .
April closed as the best month for the US stock market since the V-shaped recovery that followed the Black Monday stock market crash of 1987 .
April also delivered the deepest , broadest economic collapse of any month in history .
Everything that is wrong with our current economy in one picture : Markets have totally disconnected from reality The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is written here about the US can pretty well be said for all nations in the world .
The collapse crushed jobs , personal income , consumer spending , consumer sentiment , car sales , and general economic activity more than any month in the history of the nation .
Some of those sharpest declines happened in March , but April relentlessly drove to to greater depths .
But stocks rose .
It stomped the housing market into the dust and pushed oil prices deeper down the wells of Texas than anyone ever @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up the world for potentially serious food shortages in the summer , as farming , processing and delivery all collapsed due to lack of labor under the intense social restrictions of the coronacrisis — the first global quarantine in the history of the world .
And stocks still rose .
Perhaps this should call it Black April , though March was worse in many ways .
It ’ s just that the economic collapse kept on getting deeper in April .
Yet , stocks had their best month in more than thirty years @ @ @ @ @ @ @ massive scale — the greatest economic denial in history .
The first-quarter decline in GDP came in at 5 % , but the monthly decline in April was far worse .
Though we don ’ t have the specifics , we know that half of the first quarter was , to the best everyone knew , virus-free in the United States .
Viral lockdown was not even a thought .
April alone , probably brought GDP down more than another 5 % .
Still , stocks rose .
Many are calling the present @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And yet stocks continued to rise .
Even one of the richest people on the planet literally laughs off the silly notion that we are returning to normal anytime soon ( and he ’ s a villainaire turned global virus guru ) Yet , the stock market continued too rise .
It rose against the following onslaught of the worst crash-dives into economic collapse in nearly a century .
Some of these deformations in the economy are the deepest rifts in US history : “ Over 30 Million Americans Have Lost Their Jobs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the BEA , disposable income and personal spending fell off a cliff : Corresponding with that , gross domestic product , the common official gauge of the entire economy ( whether it should be or not ) , plummeted : Similarly , the Chicago Fed ’ s economic index took a trip into the abyss : In light of all of that , it ’ s not surprising that consumer sentiment , the only thing carrying the economy along during the last year , also collapsed : Anything below 100 indicates sentiment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t have anything to spend their falling money on anyway due to shortages .
Of course , shortages typically mean price inflation , so they will be spending as much money for less of what they want .
Drudge ran the following headline : While the National Review titled their story more sedately , the fact remains that a collapse in food supplies is becoming a concern under the coronavirus lockdown .
“ Analysts say April will be the worst auto sales month in at least 30 years due to the coronavirus pandemic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : As go car sales , so eventually go repossessions of cars recently sold .
“ The ‘ Great Repression ’ is here and it will make past downturns look tame , economist says “ Stocks shrugged that one off because we all know Eurpean banks are worse off than the US .
“ It won ’ t affect us .
It ’ ll never happen here.
” Yet , another banking collapse may not be that far off either .
Remember the last time we heard headlines like : After a nice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ year , the housing collapse looked like this : That pretty well crashed into the ground .
Banks and mainstream media forewarn of economic collapse into another Great Depression We ’ re falling into our basement in our own self-designed demolition .
Even some major central banks and mainstream media are joining in the Depression chorus to sing of how deep this going : The following quotes are collected from an article titled “ Reopen the Economy While Protecting Those Truly at Risk or Face Another Great Depression.
” Powerful words from many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hesitate to go straight from the R-word to “ great depression.
” But the stock market still put in its best performance since the 80 ’ s .
And oil , of course , priced negative for what was surely the first time in world history .
No one ever thought empty barrels of crude oil would be worth more than full ones .
Even Jerome Powell , who always tries to talk the market up , said “ We ’ ll see economic data in Q2 that ’ s ‘ worse than @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
“ But stocks continued to rise anyway .
The market went up , even though Powell warned of economic catastrophe , because he also promised to throw lots of gasoline on it : Like Icarus , stocks are flying to the sun and may not melt until they get there .
We all know the reason for the rise is that the Federal Reserve and the US government are punching in massive amounts of QE , loans , stimulus of all kinds to avert a total economic collapse .
Still , that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ took the biggest cliff dive in history anyway , but it drove stocks up .
What that really means is that the Fed wants to do all it can in order to inflate stock values far above the true economic value of any company on the stock exchanges , rather than let the market reflect what companies are really worth .
As company values crash in terms of price-to-sales ratios or revenue or any business metric you want to apply , the Fed wants to make sure that stock prices are never true @ @ @ @ @ @ @ soon have the scenario where dead shell corporations trade as trillion-dollar chips in the Wall-Street casinos .
Ask yourself one common-sense question : if it doesn ’ t matter for stock-trading purposes whether or not corporations have any actual business income under the coronavirus shutdown , does it even matter if they actually exist ?
Does the stock market keep flying or crash ?
I still believe reality always wins in the end , so this is a bear-market rally that will end in great misery .
Incredible as the present rally is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every major market crash in history .
The pattern of great crashes always goes like this : After years of climbing , there ’ s a sudden crash of 20 % or more followed by a rally about halfway back to there last record high , and then reality kicks back in with the worst yet to come .
Here , for example , is the great crash of 1929 and the stock market that followed during the ensuing Great Depression : And here is the Dow 2020 crash : About halfway back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all previous crashes , doesn ’ t prove history will repeat itself with an even greater downturn now , as it has done in other major events .
However , it does forewarn one not to make too much of an extremely euphoric rally .
The market crashed in one month , so now it rallied halfway in a month .
It the perfect counterpart if its going to match up to other periods of deep economic collapse..
Although the stock market just experienced its best month in decades , the rally in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too .
Even the Fed finally admits it may be coming up against the Law of Diminishing returns , which I have said for years will ultimately be the undoing of the Fed ’ s unsustainable recovery efforts : Of course it does .
If the only way you can keep the addicted market rising is to keep pushing QE , then you ’ re destined to gradually get weaker results and need more QE until eventually the patient needs such high doses to get a buzz that he gets fried from toxic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Fed ’ s pushing its dope and all the government ’ s stimulants — far greater in measure than any time in history — the rally now appears to be stalling out … at just the same level other bull traps have stalled after the first major leg down in stock crash .
And Friday it got some seriously dangerous denial-braking news .
Amazon reported that it would have no profits in the present quarter .
As the coronacrisis took down company after company , strung-out investors continued to believe in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ delivering new highs even in this somewhat apocalyptic world .
Amazon ’ s return to earth , as a biggest of all tech stocks , means the other tech stocks that were delivering trips to the moon can fail under the harsh reality of the coronacrisis , too .
There is reason now for that last bastion of unreality to start to crumble so that investors start to see reality again .
The hallucination of invincibility is failing .
Even though I believe diminishing returns are reaching their ultimate stage , the market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coupled with extreme dope of the infinite supplier could just blow the market ’ s mind in a fatal high .
The Fed is run by a Pusher Powell , who just assured the stock market , similar he will deliver everything he can “ to the absolute limit of [ the Fed ’ s ] powers … to get through this thing.
” That ’ s dope !
It brings back to mind Powell ’ s former counterpart at the European Central Bank who , at a time that now feels long @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the ECB would “ do whatever it takes.
” We know Fed meds will keep shooting into the market ’ s veins in order to keep pushing stock values into the sun ’ s corona if the Fed can make that happen .
The Fed has said it will do everything it can to send the market up that astral path to its most mind-blowing experience .
That means , even if US businesses burn out in the withering flames of the coronavirus , they may continue to exist in name only on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ exchanges , carrying the greatest values they ’ ve ever had … as nothing but chips in a casino .
That still won ’ t save the economy , but it is the weird ground zero for the Fed ’ s current rocket ride if the Fed manages to keep pushing stock values up on near-infinite streams of money .
In that paradoxical sphere of existence , the economy collapses under a coronavirus siege that keeps taking businesses down , while their stocks ascend to an unearned zenith .
I , however , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prevails .
Diminishing Returns return to the throne , and will soon rule the day .
Some unlikely voices are saying we are heading into another Great Depression v recession .
That ’ s the kind of reality we are facing where people are torn for how deep to dig into our vocabulary and our past to define these times .
In these worst of times , I think a bear-market rally that befits the best of times has likely topped out .
The Fed ’ s recovery is doomed to fall back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ into recession , and the stock market bulls are doomed to collapse into a Fed-created hell .
The bull trap has been set , and Amazon tripped the trigger just by showing reality rules Amazon , too .
Reality rules ; but if it doesn ’ t because of a Fed that some believe to be omnipotent in money-creating power , I don ’ t want to live in that endless hallucination .

Fiercest Economic Collapse Month in History is Best Month for Stock Market
Who coulda guessed these would be yesterday’s 4 p.m. CNBC headlines?
“S&P 500 BEST MONTH SINCE JAN. 1987.”
SINCE JAN. 1987.” “NASDAQ BEST MONTH SINCE JUNE 2000.”
SINCE JUNE 2000.” “DOW’S BEST MONTH SINCE OCT. 2002.”
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. April closed as the best month for the US stock market since the V-shaped recovery that followed the Black Monday stock market crash of 1987. April also delivered the deepest, broadest economic collapse of any month in history.
Everything that is wrong with our current economy in one picture : Markets have totally disconnected from reality
The economic collapse was simultaneously global. What is written here about the US can pretty well be said for all nations in the world. The collapse crushed jobs, personal income, consumer spending, consumer sentiment, car sales, and general economic activity more than any month in the history of the nation. Some of those sharpest declines happened in March, but April relentlessly drove to to greater depths. But stocks rose.
It stomped the housing market into the dust and pushed oil prices deeper down the wells of Texas than anyone ever imagined was possible. It also set up the world for potentially serious food shortages in the summer, as farming, processing and delivery all collapsed due to lack of labor under the intense social restrictions of the coronacrisis — the first global quarantine in the history of the world. And stocks still rose.
Perhaps this should call it Black April, though March was worse in many ways. It’s just that the economic collapse kept on getting deeper in April. Yet, stocks had their best month in more than thirty years. That’s incongruity on a massive scale — the greatest economic denial in history.
The first-quarter decline in GDP came in at 5%, but the monthly decline in April was far worse. Though we don’t have the specifics, we know that half of the first quarter was, to the best everyone knew, virus-free in the United States. Viral lockdown was not even a thought. April alone, probably brought GDP down more than another 5%. Still, stocks rose.
Many are calling the present economic collapse the Second Great Depression.
Says Ian Bremmer, President of Eurasia Group,
We’re facing the worst economic recession of our lifetimes…. If your saying the markets actually think its only going to be three months, I hope they don’t think that! It’s a very long time before we get back to normal…. Social distancing is clearly going on for months and months…. You’re going to see a lot more inequality … more political polarization and anti-establishment sentiment…. That’s going to disenfranchise a lot more people. It’ll lead to more political polarization…. The potential for an outright cold war between the United States and China is getting a lot larger…. The worst economic cataclysm of our lifetimes…. Coronavirus … speeds up a lot of things that were already happening. It takes ten years and compresses them into one and half…. The Greek crisis … is going to be driven forward much more quickly now…. I worry about … the global middle class … now going back into poverty…. Humanity is not going to do better coming out of this crisis…. There is no country in the world that you’re going to be able to go back in three to five years time and say, “We came out better because of that coronavirus crisis.”
And yet stocks continued to rise.
Even one of the richest people on the planet literally laughs off the silly notion that we are returning to normal anytime soon (and he’s a villainaire turned global virus guru)
Best case scenario … If we can figure out how to do K-12 in the fall, that would be good. I even even think that, if we’re creative about it and things have gone well, we’ll be able to [open] college [in the fall]…. How many schools are opening up? We won’t really know enough until pretty close to the start…. The economy is not going to be anything like it was…. You do have an economy that is going to be operating at a lower level…. There’s no doubt that’ll be the case for years to come…. That should affect overall [corporate] valuation. You know, there aren’t that many great investments…. I find it a little surprising where the market is.
Yet, the stock market continued too rise. It rose against the following onslaught of the worst crash-dives into economic collapse in nearly a century. Some of these deformations in the economy are the deepest rifts in US history:
Headline economic collapse data for March and April
“Over 30 Million Americans Have Lost Their Jobs In The Last Six Weeks”
That’s over 12 times the prior worst five-week period in the last 50-plus years … and … the highest level of continuing claims ever.
According to the BEA, disposable income and personal spending fell off a cliff:
Corresponding with that, gross domestic product, the common official gauge of the entire economy (whether it should be or not), plummeted:
Since GDP is how we measure the economy, a massive collapse in GDP IS an economic collapse.
Similarly, the Chicago Fed’s economic index took a trip into the abyss:
In light of all of that, it’s not surprising that consumer sentiment, the only thing carrying the economy along during the last year, also collapsed:
All gauges of the economy are showing collapse.
Anything below 100 indicates sentiment is leaning negative.
Consumers won’t have anything to spend their falling money on anyway due to shortages. Of course, shortages typically mean price inflation, so they will be spending as much money for less of what they want. Drudge ran the following headline:
“Beef Shortages Alarm White House“
While the National Review titled their story more sedately, the fact remains that a collapse in food supplies is becoming a concern under the coronavirus lockdown.
Carmageddon or the Carpocalypse continues:
“Analysts say April will be the worst auto sales month in at least 30 years due to the coronavirus pandemic“
That paired up nicely with this:
“Wave Of Repos Imminent As Subprime Auto-Buyers Miss Payments“
As go car sales, so eventually go repossessions of cars recently sold.
As unemployment soars, borrowers are putting off payments…. Ally Financial Inc. said on Monday that about 25% of its auto-loan customers have taken advantage of its payment-deferral program….
Economist David Rosenberg says,
“The ‘Great Repression’ is here and it will make past downturns look tame, economist says“
[Base case:] 30% contraction in real gross domestic product in the second quarter, negative year-over-year consumer price growth for 5 quarters, and an unemployment rate of 14.2% by the end of 2020, averaging 13% throughout 2021.
But stocks continued rising.
“Biggest European Banks Brace For Default Tsunami As Loan Losses Soar“
Stocks shrugged that one off because we all know Eurpean banks are worse off than the US. “It won’t affect us. It’ll never happen here.”
Yet, another banking collapse may not be that far off either. Remember the last time we heard headlines like:
“Housing To Take A Hit“
Home purchases in March had their biggest decline since November 2015. Some say a crash is inevitable at this point.
After a nice rise finally at the start of the year, the housing collapse looked like this:
Housing sales collapse.
That pretty well crashed into the ground.
Banks and mainstream media forewarn of economic collapse into another Great Depression
Planned demolition of the global economy causes greater economic collapse in our lifetimes.
We’re falling into our basement in our own self-designed demolition. Even some major central banks and mainstream media are joining in the Depression chorus to sing of how deep this going: The following quotes are collected from an article titled “Reopen the Economy While Protecting Those Truly at Risk or Face Another Great Depression.”
“We are experiencing an economic contraction that is faster and deeper than anything we have seen in the past century, or possibly several centuries,” Bank of England interest-rate setter Jan Vlieghe said.
The coronavirus collapse has the ingredients to surpass the disaster of the 1930s…. Let’s hope this depression won’t last a decade, but an unprecedented slump followed by years of pain seems inevitable, said a Bloomberg commentary.
From economist Nouriel Roubini: “The best economic outcome that anyone can hope for is a recession deeper than that following the 2008 financial crisis. But given the flailing policy response so far, the chances of a far worse outcome are increasing by the day.”
“Forget recession, this is a depression,” says the left wing Guardian.
The coronavirus pandemic will push the global economy into the deepest recession since the Great Depression…, the head of the International Monetary Fund said Thursday.
“The expectation of market participants is that we’re in the Great Depression and that in a sense, the news can’t get much worse,” said BNY Mellon chief strategist Alicia Levine.
“At this point it would take a miracle to keep this recession from turning into the Great Depression II,” says Chris Rupkey, of Mitsubishi’s economic unit.
Powerful words from many powerful players, who don’t hesitate to go straight from the R-word to “great depression.”
But the stock market still put in its best performance since the 80’s.
And oil, of course, priced negative for what was surely the first time in world history. No one ever thought empty barrels of crude oil would be worth more than full ones.
Even Jerome Powell, who always tries to talk the market up, said “We’ll see economic data in Q2 that’s ‘worse than any data we’ve seen’.“
But stocks continued to rise anyway.
Federal Reserve flies stocks into the sun
The market went up, even though Powell warned of economic catastrophe, because he also promised to throw lots of gasoline on it:
We can do what we can do, and we will do it to the absolute limit of those powers. We’ll keep at it … to get through this thing. — Jerome Powell (from the video below)
Like Icarus, stocks are flying to the sun and may not melt until they get there.
We all know the reason for the rise is that the Federal Reserve and the US government are punching in massive amounts of QE, loans, stimulus of all kinds to avert a total economic collapse. Still, that did not help the economy, which took the biggest cliff dive in history anyway, but it drove stocks up.
What that really means is that the Fed wants to do all it can in order to inflate stock values far above the true economic value of any company on the stock exchanges, rather than let the market reflect what companies are really worth. As company values crash in terms of price-to-sales ratios or revenue or any business metric you want to apply, the Fed wants to make sure that stock prices are never true valuations again.
That means we could soon have the scenario where dead shell corporations trade as trillion-dollar chips in the Wall-Street casinos. Ask yourself one common-sense question: if it doesn’t matter for stock-trading purposes whether or not corporations have any actual business income under the coronavirus shutdown, does it even matter if they actually exist?
Does the stock market keep flying or crash?
I still believe reality always wins in the end, so this is a bear-market rally that will end in great misery. Incredible as the present rally is, it is perfectly in keeping with every major market crash in history. The pattern of great crashes always goes like this:
After years of climbing, there’s a sudden crash of 20% or more followed by a rally about halfway back to there last record high, and then reality kicks back in with the worst yet to come.
Here, for example, is the great crash of 1929 and the stock market that followed during the ensuing Great Depression:
And here is the Dow 2020 crash:
About halfway back. The fact that the pattern matches all previous crashes, doesn’t prove history will repeat itself with an even greater downturn now, as it has done in other major events. However, it does forewarn one not to make too much of an extremely euphoric rally. The market crashed in one month, so now it rallied halfway in a month. It the perfect counterpart if its going to match up to other periods of deep economic collapse..
Although the stock market just experienced its best month in decades, the rally in 1929 was the best in decades, too.
Even the Fed finally admits it may be coming up against the Law of Diminishing returns, which I have said for years will ultimately be the undoing of the Fed’s unsustainable recovery efforts:
Even Powell’s deputy commander — Vice Chairman Richard Clarida — recognizes the limits: “The law of diminishing returns is a very powerful force in economics, and so we have to be concerned that it may also apply to quantitative easing.” Daily Reckoning
Of course it does.
The Fed is on a trip to escape Earth’s gravity.
The Federal Reserve’s electric kool-aid acid trip
If the only way you can keep the addicted market rising is to keep pushing QE, then you’re destined to gradually get weaker results and need more QE until eventually the patient needs such high doses to get a buzz that he gets fried from toxic overload.
Clearly, even with all the Fed’s pushing its dope and all the government’s stimulants — far greater in measure than any time in history — the rally now appears to be stalling out … at just the same level other bull traps have stalled after the first major leg down in stock crash.
And Friday it got some seriously dangerous denial-braking news. Amazon reported that it would have no profits in the present quarter. As the coronacrisis took down company after company, strung-out investors continued to believe in the ability of the top-five stocks to keep delivering new highs even in this somewhat apocalyptic world.
Amazon’s return to earth, as a biggest of all tech stocks, means the other tech stocks that were delivering trips to the moon can fail under the harsh reality of the coronacrisis, too. There is reason now for that last bastion of unreality to start to crumble so that investors start to see reality again. The hallucination of invincibility is failing.
Even though I believe diminishing returns are reaching their ultimate stage, the market’s summit of rarified irrationality, coupled with extreme dope of the infinite supplier could just blow the market’s mind in a fatal high. The Fed is run by a Pusher Powell, who just assured the stock market, similar he will deliver everything he can “to the absolute limit of [the Fed’s] powers … to get through this thing.” That’s dope!
It brings back to mind Powell’s former counterpart at the European Central Bank who, at a time that now feels long ago in a different world, said the ECB would “do whatever it takes.” We know Fed meds will keep shooting into the market’s veins in order to keep pushing stock values into the sun’s corona if the Fed can make that happen.
The Fed has said it will do everything it can to send the market up that astral path to its most mind-blowing experience. That means, even if US businesses burn out in the withering flames of the coronavirus, they may continue to exist in name only on the far off displays of US stock exchanges, carrying the greatest values they’ve ever had … as nothing but chips in a casino.
That still won’t save the economy, but it is the weird ground zero for the Fed’s current rocket ride if the Fed manages to keep pushing stock values up on near-infinite streams of money. In that paradoxical sphere of existence, the economy collapses under a coronavirus siege that keeps taking businesses down, while their stocks ascend to an unearned zenith.
I, however, am staying with my belief that reality prevails. Diminishing Returns return to the throne, and will soon rule the day. Some unlikely voices are saying we are heading into another Great Depression v recession. That’s the kind of reality we are facing where people are torn for how deep to dig into our vocabulary and our past to define these times.
In these worst of times, I think a bear-market rally that befits the best of times has likely topped out. The Fed’s recovery is doomed to fall back to an earth that is plunging deep into recession, and the stock market bulls are doomed to collapse into a Fed-created hell. The bull trap has been set, and Amazon tripped the trigger just by showing reality rules Amazon, too.
Reality rules; but if it doesn’t because of a Fed that some believe to be omnipotent in money-creating power, I don’t want to live in that endless hallucination.

prepareforchange--2020-05-03--U.S. Public Debt Increases More In April Than During Entire 2019

The U.S. public debt increased at the fastest rate ever during April .
Due to the negative economic impacts stemming from the global contagion , the U.S. Treasury increased the federal debt by a whopping $ 1.3 trillion in a single month .
The additional $ 1.3 trillion of U.S. public debt during April would purchase approximately one-third of all the physical gold investment bullion in the world , which currently stands at $ 4.1 trillion .
In just one month ( April ) , Uncle Sam ’ s printing press or digital monetary liquidity could purchase 750 million oz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of gold would be 67 % of the total Central Bank Gold Reserves .
So , at some point , the Fed and central bank monetary insanity will come back to BITE THEM HARD… LOL .

Thus , the U.S. public debt increase in April was even higher than in Full-Year @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for the U.S. Treasury to add $ 1,207 billion in debt ( 2019 ) , it only took one month to increase it to $ 1,287 billion ( April ) .

Unfortunately , it ’ s only going to get worse going forward .
It is impossible to forecast the collapse of the U.S .

However , the current monetary policy taking place suggests that it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ LATER .

prepareforchange--2020-05-04--Is Dr. Shiva the Real Deal?

Is Dr. Shiva the Real Deal?

For many months I have remained silent in the face of defamatory and dishonest attacks against me by Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai .
My approach was to ignore the sniping to preserve the unity of the Health Freedom Movement .
However , Shiva has expanded his malevolent campaign to include venomous salvos against our community ’ s most prominent and effective leaders , including Del Bigtree , Mark Blaxill , Dr. Rashid Buttar , Polly Tommey and Samoan-Australian activist Taylor Winterstein .
Because he now has some of our outstanding spokesmen in his gun-sites , and because his poisonous volleys have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ critical to our success , I reluctantly make this response .
I had never heard of Shiva when he approached me on the street following a January 6th , 2020 Trenton rally .
We had a friendly chat and took a photo .
Afterward , he tweeted that I had refused to shake his hand .
A half-dozen photos of us shaking hands soon surfaced , proving his statements false .
It was only then that I learned he was running as a fringe candidate for U.S. Senate against my nephew , Massachusetts @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that a man who lies about small things , will also lie about the large .
I made a note to fact check Shiva ’ s assertions .
I advise others to take similar precautions .

From HealthNutNews.com and Erin Elizabeth:
By Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Chairman, Children’s Health Defense
For many months I have remained silent in the face of defamatory and dishonest attacks against me by Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai. My approach was to ignore the sniping to preserve the unity of the Health Freedom Movement. However, Shiva has expanded his malevolent campaign to include venomous salvos against our community’s most prominent and effective leaders, including Del Bigtree, Mark Blaxill, Dr. Rashid Buttar, Polly Tommey and Samoan-Australian activist Taylor Winterstein. Because he now has some of our outstanding spokesmen in his gun-sites, and because his poisonous volleys have begun to damage the solidarity that is critical to our success, I reluctantly make this response.
Little Lies / Big Lies
I had never heard of Shiva when he approached me on the street following a January 6th, 2020 Trenton rally. We had a friendly chat and took a photo. Afterward, he tweeted that I had refused to shake his hand. A half-dozen photos of us shaking hands soon surfaced, proving his statements false. It was only then that I learned he was running as a fringe candidate for U.S. Senate against my nephew, Massachusetts Congressman Joseph Kennedy. It is axiomatic that a man who lies about small things, will also lie about the large. I made a note to fact check Shiva’s assertions. I advise others to take similar precautions.
Attacking Our Leaders
Del Bigtree, Mark Blaxill, Polly Tommey and Dr. Rashid Buttar are battle proven veterans deeply scarred by incalculable personal sacrifices suffered on the front-line trenches during decades of hand to hand combat against Pharma, corrupt regulators and the medical cartel. They have published, litigated, campaigned, debated, testified, strategized, organized, informed, and defended. I am proud to have served with each of them in dozens of state capitals, speaking at rallies, testifying before state legislatures, and meeting with public officials. They have emptied their personal bank accounts and, at times, ruined their health in service to our cause. They have each played indispensable roles in building the institutions that have helped us coalesce into the coherent and powerful movement that now threatens the Pharmaceutical paradigm. They have given us every reason to trust them and no reason for doubt. Shiva’s claim that these individuals are “controlled opposition” are patently absurd.
Undermining State Health Freedom Advocates
Shiva has viciously attacked the brilliant Health Choice Massachusetts (HCM) organizer, Candice Edwards. Edwards and her HCM co-founder, Allison Chapman lead the battle to derail the repeal of vaccine exemptions in Boston. Shiva tried to sabotage the group’s efforts, by showing up at Legislature Hearings without the science panel he had promised and delivering self-promotional testimony so loaded with insulting vulgarity and invective, that the Public Health Committee shut down the hearing, calling Shiva “a prick.” Shiva then picked a loud fight with one of the moms accusing her of using her child for political purposes. “He threw us under the bus,” Edwards recalls. Shiva accuses Edwards of being “controlled opposition.”
When Shiva calls Movement leaders “controlled opposition,” is he speaking of himself?
Instead of preaching science, Shiva spends money from his Health Freedom donor base digging up dirt on other activists. Shiva employs a full-time “Negative Research” investigator, Jennifer Bennett, to excavate and invent defamatory gossip about Health Freedom Groups and their leaders in Massachusetts and nationally. In his war against our Movement, Shiva employs all the classic strategies and gambits prescribed by psychological warfare experts, in our Intelligence Services, for disrupting social reform movements when they begin to gather steam and threaten the power of entrenched vested interests.
So why, beside malignant narcissism, would a newcomer to our Movement seek to undermine our most effective and influential leaders and divide our forces? I don’t like to speculate about people’s motives, but it is a common motif among a certain species of scoundrel to project their own villainy in their slandering of others. Do Shiva’s accusations that all of us are “controlled opposition” reveal his own motivations?
Some hints to that answer may lie among the things Shiva doesn’t tell us.
Shiva, the Vaccine Maker
Shiva never mentions the fact that he is a vaccine maker. Shiva owns a pharmaceutical company, Cytosolve, that partners with vaccine and drugmakers to accelerate FDA approvals for vaccines and other pharmaceutical drugs. His principal business partner is Pfizer, the world’s #4 vaccine maker. Are Shiva’s attacks on our Movement calculated pandering, to court affection from Pfizer and the HHS regulators––upon whose favor his financial success relies––and to win their blessings by discrediting a Movement that questions vaccine products?
Shiva made his money from the Clintons
Shiva claims to have invented Email (Smithsonian says Shiva’s claim is untrue and a Federal court has agreed). In fact, Shiva made his fortune running Email operations for President Bill and Hillary Clintonduring the White House years. (It is ironic, therefore, that he accuses others of consorting with the Clintons). The Clinton contract propelled his company, EchoMail, to a $200 million valuation.
Shiva, Partner to Microsoft
Shiva’s Echomail partner was Bill Gates’ Microsoft. Even today, Shiva lists Microsoft as his partner on his EchoMail homepage. Gates, the world’s most prominent and vocal advocate for universal mandatory vaccination is also a proponent for tagging human beings with injected technologies for tracking vaccine records. Both Microsoft and Gates are leading industry efforts to develop a subdermal biometric chip system. Shiva’s success at dividing our movement and undermining and discrediting our leadership might ingratiate him with these business partners.
Shiva and Bill Gates
It is noteworthy that Shiva consistently mutes his criticism of Bill Gates, seeking to deflect public anger at Gates towards Hillary Clinton. This makes no sense. Hillary’s views on mandatory vaccines are abhorrent, but unlike Gates whose ownership of the WHO and GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance allows him to dictate global vaccine policy, Hillary is an out-of-work politician with no political power. The Clinton Foundation is virtually defunct and bootless as an arbiter of public health policy. Why does Shiva shield Gates and insist that Hillary is the more important target?
Shiva and 5G
Both Gates and Microsoft hold leading stakes in the burgeoning wireless infrastructure expansion. Gates’ subdermal chip systems will be capable of meshing with Gates’ extensive new 5G antennae and satellite deployments, to harvest, not only our vaccination and medical data, but also lucrative information about our movements, our purchases, and our desires, at the granular level. Shiva lists his other business partners as the principle Big Data Titans, Dell, Oracle and IBM which all stand to make a killing on the current 5G expansion. Is this why Shiva refuses to condemn 5G?
How Does Shiva Escape Censorship?
Shiva is the only leader in our Movement who doesn’t suffer the Social Media censorship that bedevils the rest of us. His capacity to boost his audience, his immunity from shadow-banning and from eviction from his platforms has allowed him to exponentially expand his base, as the rest of us struggle past the censors to reach our audiences, one follower at a time. Why are Facebook, Google, and Instagram showering love on Shiva while they strangle the rest of us? Why does Silicon Valley boost Shiva and smother us?
Shilling for Silicon Valley Big Data Billionaires
Shiva has previous experience shilling for Big Data/Telecom. In 2010, Shiva served as front man to PayPal’sSilicon Valley titan, Peter Thiel. Thiel was campaigning to destroy Gawker in revenge for its unflattering article about himself. Thiel funded Shiva to file a defamation law suit against Gawker for reporting that Shiva lied about inventing Email. Shiva, of course, lost the law suit, but the ruinous costs of the litigation helped bankrupt Gawker, which was always Thiel’s purpose. Shiva may have discovered, from that transaction, the economic opportunities in shilling for Silicon Valley’s Big Data Barrons.
Silicon Valley is deeply entrenched with the CIA and the Pentagon in cyber-warfare efforts and in developing AI surveillance systems that can compete with the Chinese. The Silicon Valley/CIA partnership has its own secretive Federal agency, the National Security Commission, chaired by ex Google CEO, Eric Schmidt. Their strategy is to roll out 5G as a comprehensive security and surveillance superstructure that will serve as a platform for new surveillance technologies. This sinister cabal undoubtedly see the evolving Health Freedom coalition between anti 5G and anti Pharma activists as an obstacle to their ambitions.
Why Does Shiva Want to Push Democrats Out of the Health Freedom Movement?
Shiva’s insistence that Democrats disown their party, before being welcomed into the Health Freedom Movement, and his attacks on anyone who ever voted for Hillary or any other prominent Democrat, seem deliberately calculated to foment destructive partisanship and to drive Democrats from our Movement. Shiva knows that for us to succeed, our Movement requires political diversity, unity, harmony and a big tent. We welcome citizens of every nation and every political stripe. We don’t impose ideological tests or check party affiliations. I, myself, am a lifelong Democrat, but I understand that this issue must transcend party affiliations. All of our best leaders comprehend that there is no such thing as a Republican child or a Democratic child. I have worked effectively and aggressively across the nation, with Republicans—including President Trump. Trump, who himself donated $1,000,000 to the Clinton Foundation in 2009, did not hold my previous support for Hillary against me. He welcomed the opportunity to burnish the project’s bipartisan bona fides.
Our bipartisan approach is effective, and frightening to Pharma. Is this why Shiva is trying so hard to excite political hatred among our followers, and to polarize us along party lines?
Can Shiva Pass his Own Ideological Test?
Shiva’s insistence on ideological purity is ironic at best and duplicitous and deceptive at worst, given his own ambiguous political theologies. To win the top spot on the G.O.P.’s U.S. Senate ballot, Shiva persuaded Massachusetts Republicans that he was a staunch, dyed-in-the-wool Right-wing Trump supporter. Elsewhere, however, he brags of being a committed socialist and communist sympathizer. His wavering affiliations beg the question: Who is Shiva, and does he stand for anything beyond personal opportunism?
Psy-Ops Tactics
Shiva does not litigate, publish or fund scientific research, build institutions, treat patients, or collaborate with other leaders. He has demonstrated no inclination to work with the rest of us to build a Movement, powerful enough to confront the Big Pharma and the Big Data/Telecom tyrants. He behaves, in every instance, like a man determined to tear down all that others have built up. People who still believe in Shiva might demand to know why he chooses to spare FDA, Pfizer, Microsoft, and 5G his barbs, and to direct his poison instead at our proven leaders. Shiva seems intent on distracting Del, Mark, Rashid, Polly, Taylor, Candice and others from their important work. His sinister, treacherous and destructive rear guard action, fomenting and feeding schism, division, discord, and confusion that harms our Movement, plays directly into the hands of Big Pharma.
Shiva’s followers are entitled to an explanation.
