Why Ivermectin was Disappeared​

By Henry F. Smith Jr., MD

It’s a common occurrence in winter. A patient calls a primary physician to report a nonproductive cough, slight hoarseness, muscle aches, and a low-grade fever. The physician, and likely the patient, realize that this is almost certainly a viral upper respiratory infection. If the patient were in the office, the physician may test for a streptococcal bacterial infection, but it will likely be negative.
This is probably an infection with a rhinovirus, adenovirus, or endemic coronavirus. Despite this, the afflicted patient will happily proceed to the pharmacy to pick up their prescription for an antibiotic. The patient will feel as though the physician was proactive, something the doctor certainly understands.
This prescription, however, will be of no value to the patient and may actually cause issues. Yet pharmacies in the U.S. see this type of prescription thousands of times a day.
It occurs despite the fact that physicians are constantly reminded that gratuitous antibiotic prescriptions come with side effects and can lead to antibiotic resistance. Beyond that, there is no tangible resistance to this practice from the medical establishment or healthcare authorities.
Now let’s imagine another patient calls in. This patient also has a dry cough scratchy throat, muscle aches, and a low-grade fever. Only this patient had a COVID test kit at home and tested positive. The physician wants to prescribe a medication with no risk of bacterial resistance and a very benign side-effect profile. He’s read lots of literature to suggest it will be helpful. There are a significant number of double-blind studies showing it to be effective in the treatment of SARS Co-V2. It has been used in multiple countries with excellent results. Except, in this case, the physician will find it impossible to prescribe that medication. It will be impossible because that medication is Ivermectin. And somehow it has been removed from the market.
Not only has this FDA-approved, Nobel prize-winning drug been made unavailable, but if a physician were to prescribe it, or advocate it as therapy, they are threatened with the potential loss of their medical license, their hospital affiliations, and their board certification.
It gets even more ironic. I’ve noticed that some physicians are prescribing a very common antibiotic called azithromycin for their COVID patients. It is well understood that for COVID-19 when taken alone, it is of no value. There is absolutely no data to show efficacy in COVID-19. It has the same potential problems, as when it is prescribed for other viral infections. Yet the practice goes on, again unimpeded.
Let’s go one step further. Levofloxacin is another antibiotic, introduced in 1996. It was unusual in that it can treat a broad variety of infections, even those that are severe, but can be given orally. Because of this, it was overutilized, threatening to create drug resistance.

Rush Limbaugh's Lesson for Joe Rogan​

By Tim O'Brien

Could you imagine a scenario where aging rockers Neil Young and Joni Mitchell could team up and force Rush Limbaugh to make an apology, and possibly moderate his content going forward?
Yet, that’s exactly what happened last week when the two no longer relevant Boomer artists threatened to pull their music from Spotify to force the platform to seemingly pressure Joe Rogan to perform a public mea culpa for two recent episodes of his hugely successful “Joe Rogan Experience” podcast.
It doesn’t matter that the vast majority of Spotify users had no idea who Neil Young or Joni Mitchell were before this past week, Spotify knew it did not want more musical artists to join the bandwagon, so the response to these “Boomers for censorship” has been to institute a content advisory for any material that features COVID-19 information. Since then, a smattering of equally unimpressive artists have shown support for Young and Mitchell.
For his part, Rogan posted an Instagram video where he apologized to Spotify and clarified his stance regarding those two episodes and the campaign to censor him. To be sure, his response didn’t even come close to a grovel. In fact, without being heavy-handed he presented a pretty solid and reasonable defense against the rather fluid nature of the attacks on his content. Still, it was obvious that he spoke to an audience of one, which was Spotify.
“I want to thank Spotify for being so supportive during this time and I’m verry sorry that this is happening to them and that they’re taking so much heat from it,” he said.
Spotify is the largest music streaming platform in the world. While it has made significant progress towards competing against Apple in the podcast space, music is still Spotify’s bread and butter.
Listeners to the platform have access to more than 70 million songs and roughly 3 million podcasts.
Spotify has 365 million monthly active users (MAUs), and counts 165 million premium (paid) subscribers. The company reports that most of its revenue, about $8.4 billion in 2020, comes from those paid subscribers. And most of those subscribers pay for the music, not the podcasts. This gives music artists more collective clout with Spotify than Rogan has.
Where does Rogan fit with Spotify?
In September of 2020, Rogan moved his podcast to Spotify in an exclusive deal that was reported to be worth more than $100 million, making it the flagship show in Spotify’s commitment to dominate the podcast space.
Prior to his Spotify deal, he reported that 190 million listeners downloaded his podcast each month, and roughly 11 million people listen to each episode.
From a business standpoint, it’s difficult to say whether Rogan has delivered on all of the promises of his contract with Spotify. But from an outsider’s perspective Rogan has done his part to put Spotify in the discussion as a serious podcasting platform and the rising industry leader.
Here’s the problem. All it takes is a couple of 1960s retreads to force both Spotify and Rogan into retreat over fear of musician and subscriber boycotts.
Rush Limbaugh could see this coming
By the time Rush Limbaugh died a year ago on February 17, 2021, his daily, three-hour radio show had amassed a syndicated network of 600-plus radio stations across the country. Many, if not most of those stations, were on AM radio.

Joe Rogan apologized and now, mysteriously 70 of his podcasts have vanished​

By Andrea Widburg

When some has-been hippies decided to see if they could leverage themselves into renewed fame by attacking Joe Rogan for daring to post interviews countering Anthony Fauci, Rogan groveled. He apologized and agreed to have warnings posted on his content. Once you start down that road, you’ve already lost. Alert people have noticed that 70 of Rogan’s podcasts have mysteriously vanished. It seems that they’ve done so because in older podcasts he offended today’s racial sensibilities. One wonders what will go next.
Joe Rogan is far and away the most popular media personality in America. His podcasts eclipse everyone else out there. That’s why Spotify inked a deal reputed to be worth $100 million dollars to get exclusive rights to Rogan’s content. Although Rogan is a leftist who endorsed Bernie Sanders and wants to see Michelle Obama run for president, he’s not big on cancel culture or political correctness. He invites a broad variety of people on his show—political and non-political, left and right—to ask them questions and then respectfully gives them a chance to answer those questions.
Fairly recently, he had doctors Robert Malone and Peter McCullough on his show. Both are true experts in their field and both have consistently challenged the Faucian orthodoxy about COVID and vaccines. Because they do not believe in vaccine mandates, boosters, vaccines for children, mandatory masks, or any of the other totalitarian prescriptions Fauci, Biden, the federal government, the teachers’ unions, and other leftists are insisting upon, they are the enemy and guilty of misinformation. As I detailed here the real misinformation comes from the establishment, which has been wrong about everything as well as lying about COVID’s origin.

When Neil Young and a handful of other forgotten “artists” said it was Rogan or them, Spotify made the sensible choice and went with the cash cow. However, as I wrote, although Rogan has the upper hand, he groveled. First, he allowed Spotify to stick “warning” notices on his podcasts, similar to the ones we’re all familiar with from Facebook. They’re not warnings so much as censorship and deserve to be treated with absolute disgust and disdain.
More than that, Rogan bowed down, saying he wasn’t “trying to promote misinformation,” and promising that he’d make an effort to counter this misinformation. He may like to make money talking to different people but, at heart, I guess he’s a Bernie Bro.
Of course, the fact that Rogan wasn’t canceled was a deep offense for leftists. Therefore, more of them have piled all, including a woman who says Rogan used the “N” word in the past. I don’t use vulgarisms, so I don’t and never have used that word, but the fact is that there’s is a huge genre of popular music built around mindless repetition of that world. The word isn’t taboo. It’s a money pump and Blacks want a monopoly.
Nevertheless, with charges of racism being thrown about, and Rogan already having shown weakness, there’s blood in the water and the pile-on is growing. That’s why seventy of Rogan’s episodes on Spotify have seemingly vanished.
The episodes are from 2018 and earlier, so Spotify isn’t censoring COVID episodes—at least not yet. Instead, people are alleging that these episodes are being pulled because they’ve offended racial shibboleths—and it’s not at all clear that the problem is just the evil “N” word. After all, Spotify could have been bleeped out. Alex Young spelled it out:

Israel decided to start rolling back it's vaxx pass


Starting on Monday, Israelis will no longer have to flash their Green Passes, which show proof of vaccination or a recent negative COVID-19 test at restaurants, movie theaters, gyms and hotels.

The current Green Pass is valid for all those who have either recovered or received two doses of the vaccine in the past four months, and anyone who has received three or four doses at any time.


Proof of a valid Green Pass will still be required upon entry to indoor sites where there is a higher risk for infection such as event halls and dance clubs.

It's good to see another domino fall.

In Melbourne I'm still theoretically required to have a vaccine pass when going to a restaurant, gym or cinema, except no one cares anymore and I haven't been asked for my fake one since before Christmas. I still see the odd Covidian whipping out their phone, scanning the QR code and actively seeking staff to show them their tick, it's pathetic.

So what could possibly be motivating the Israelis, the testing ground for Pfizer, to abandon their Green Pass?

1644077959656.png


Israel, which is currently rolling out a 4th dose vaccination, has the highest death rate on the planet from Omicron Covid. Even the burgers, with more deathfats than the rest of the world combined, has fewer people dying than Israel.

1644078206618.png


Omicron Covid is at least 100 times less deadly than Delta, the numbers in some countries is closer to 1000 times. The case rate in Israel is around 8 times higher than the largest of the Delta outbreaks. You wanted to see ADE in action there you go. If a vaccine escape variant had emerged that had even a slightly higher virulence and was able to infect deep lung tissue we'd be seeing a genuine mass die off right now. People need to stop getting jabbed.


In this cross-sectional study of unvaccinated US adults, antibodies were detected in 99% of individuals who reported a positive COVID-19 test result, in 55% who believed they had COVID-19 but were never tested, and in 11% who believed they had never had COVID-19 infection. Anti-RBD levels were observed after a positive COVID-19 test result up to 20 months, extending previous 6-month durability data.5

If you have already been infected and recovered from Covid and you still insist on being vaccinated you are the literal definition of mouth breathing r.etard.
 
The only reason libs have gone into hysterical overreaction against Ivermectin is it somehow became associated with the political right. Since they perceive it as belonging to Team Red, it must be banned, and anyone mentioning it must be destroyed.

So, with tears in my eyes, I am begging my fellow conservatives, the next time there is a promising, low-cost, effective treatment for COVID-19, please just don't say anything. If anything, say you think it is dangerous and only a liberal would ever think it was a good idea to use such a thing. It's the only way to make sure that safe, effective treatments for this disease remain widespread and available.

Bro imagine if Trump was on his 2nd term right now. Remember when the liberals said that they wouldn't take none of them Trump vaccines? Remember how that immediately shifted after Biden took office?
 
We can make libs cut off their dicks and dress up as girls by saying that doing so is unhealthy and insane. Maybe we should start telling them that voting is really important, and we want every citizen to do it, even if it means we lose elections.

The EUA which allows the clotshots to skip the required testing phases requires that there be no other viable treatment. Tying it to team red was just a convenient way to get their useful idiots in line.
 
CA high school students following the "Governor's" example. Heartening to see. The house of cards keeps collapsing.




And China conveniently uses "quarantining" to weaken/injure foreign athletes in favor of Chinese athletes. ANY medals "won" by Chinese athletes should be considered tainted. The Chinese just keep shooting themselves in the foot with a machine gun. 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 Don't even think the Nazis in 1936 stooped to such measures.





A judge is temporarily blocking two American officers from being punished for refusing to get vaccinated. Once again, these officers seem to be top performers, exactly the type the military so badly needs for the future.

Yeah I know it’s the filters probably on that bitch but she did at one point have a real face at one point before she became that but I did a post on her saying she is a Faucist or a branch Covidian
 
Some good news from Ohio.
Earlier this week, I reported a potential blueprint that is sweeping the nation to defeat tyrannical school boards across the country.

That strategy involves filing complaints on the surety bonds of public officials.

As Bonds For the Win explains:

Surety bonds provide financial guarantees that bondholders such as public officials, companies, contractors, or unions will uphold their contracts according to mutual terms.
Trending: Here’s How President Trump Becomes President BEFORE 2024 (You Have Not Heard This Before!)
Surety bonds protect WE THE PEOPLE from fraud and malpractice. When a bondholder breaks a bond’s terms, the harmed party can make a claim on the bond to recover losses.

I wanted to share a story from Jefferson County, Ohio, where surety bonds helped a resident bring an end to the school district’s mask mandate.

The Indian Creek Local Board of Education decided not to extend their mask mandate in October after a resident demanded it come to an end.

Gov. Kathy Hochul appeared to soften her “mask-or-vax” stance Friday and hinted the edict could be lifted or altered for New York businesses next week amid plummeting COVID-19 infection rates.

Great news, right? Could Governor Karen be ending the nuzzling in NYS?

Well not so fast bucko:

Hochul said a key indicator is that more than 95 percent of adult New Yorkers have received at least one dose of the COVID vaccine. About 85 percent have received the complete series.

So she could end it...or just figure 5% of the state who are unclean, probably only half are likely voters and less than half of those aren't Dems...so she might see that as the green light to go for mandatory vaxxing for all employers or something.

I always figured that there was some acceptable number of non compliant they could reach where they would figure mandatory vaccinations could be swallowed.

It would be too bad for her if lots of trucks park around the governor mansion.
 
Hearing about students being forced to wear masks all day sounds horrible and it's even worse to see it with your own eyes. An entire day sitting in a hot class being told off anytime they adjust their masks to breath or to get rid of some of the moisture. If they refuse to comply they are sent to the withdrawal room to be shamed all day and denied an education. If their parents have not paid for enough masks to give them one each day (cloth masks are now banned) then they can ask for one but they are told not to forget one the next day. All of this for a "pandemic" none of them have seen or have any concern about, and that is of no danger to them.

There are some covidians that complain about students taking their masks off outside, some covidians that double mask, but there are also good people that take students outside for air or give them baking to eat (because COVID can't get you while you are eating or drinking) and there are a lot of staff that are very over it all.

It's the weekends and I have come down with something (first time I have come down with something in two years I think). It's not all that bad really other than the feeling of tiredness. The problem is that I have to pray I am better before work starts because if anyone found out I had a bug I would have to get a test (you have to stay off of work for two days while it is processed) and if I tested positive for COVID I would have to isolate for a few weeks without pay (I can only take 5 paid sick days a year). I cannot afford to lose the money so it's got to the point where you have to hide your sickness under the floorboards with a candle and a blank diary and hope it doesn't cough when the sons of the sickle come knocking.
