Adverse Results by Vax Batch Number
[Via CPF]

For those of us, who for one reason or another did get vaccinated, this site allows you to enter the vaccine lot number and get a report from VAERs on the adverse effects associated with that lot. (Both my shots had high adverse results but for once I seem to have won at the craps table).

#1  Got lucky here too.

But Dr Robert Malone drew a spade: hundreds of adverse advents for his batch. Nearly blew out his aorta. More from his substack here.

#2  Interesting find, Mercutio. The Pfizer page has this statement:

Health Warning :

According to data reported in VAERS, reproduced here, adverse events triggered by Pfizer batches have varied widely.

5% of the batches appear to have produced 90% of the adverse reactions

Some Pfizer batches are associated with 30 x the number of deaths and disabilities compared to other batches

#3  But, if you point out:

· Anyone has been harmed by the vaxx.

· The vaxx does not stop transmission of the virus.

· It is an unprovable assertion that the vaxx "prevents people from getting sicker."

· More people have died since the vaxx became available than before it did.

You are not only evil, you know nothing.

#4  Besides HowBadIsMyBatch.com and Dr Malone's substack (rwmalinemd.substack.com), other excellent sources of reliable, no-BS information include

1. CanadianCovidCareAlliance.org: this group of hundreds of physicians and other medical experts has thoroughly reviewed the 6-month Pfizer data and presented detailed analysis here, concluding it did more harm than good.

2. Brownstone.org

3. This substack featuring darkly hilarious and always deeply expert analysis by an anonymous insider, most likely a doctor with a connection to Massachusetts General Hospital, who evidently spends a fair amount of his winters in Puerto Rico and hides behind the alias "boriqua gato"

4. Yet another expert who's been forced to hide behind an anonymous substack alias, "eugyppius," a Berlin-based analyst who has a huge multinational following of doctors and other intelligent commenters: eugyppius.substack.com

5. The Ur-Heretic, AlexBerenson.substack.com

#6  More: Swiss Policy Research website: swprs.org.

This was linked to by Harvard's Dr. Martin Kulldorff.

An example of their expert, dispassionate, u biased review of what we know about the vaccines is here in their concluding part of "COVID Vaccines: A Reality Check" - excerpt:

Finally, several countries have recorded an unexplained excess mortality in the wake of covid mass vaccination campaigns.

This was first noticed in Israel in the spring of 2021 (in parallel to a “murky wave of heart attacks”). Over the summer, Britain recorded several thousand non-covid excess deaths, mainly due to cardiovascular events. Moreover, Britain recorded excess deaths in adolescent males, but not females, in parallel to the vaccination campaign in this age group (see next chart).

Since September, Germany has been recording an unexplained and unprecedented non-covid excess mortality of several thousand people.

More recently, Spain has been reporting a similar unexplained excess mortality. In Switzerland, using mainly the high-dosed Moderna vaccine, a significant non-covid excess mortality has been recorded in parallel to the ongoing booster campaign.

-Land of the Free
America to Biden: It’s Time To Start Singing It’s Over . . .
By LAWRENCE KUDLOW, Special to the Sun

[NYSun] First the Supreme Court ruled six to three against the administration mandate that private businesses must mandate vaccines. Second, Senator Kyrsten Sinema repeated on the floor of the Senate roughly one hour before President Biden’s meeting with the Senate Democratic Conference, her long-standing opposition to any changes in the legislative filibuster.

That effectively rules out the Biden election takeover bill. Then, Save America. Kill the Bill. Senators Manchin and Sinema have refused to back down in their opposition to Mr. Biden’s big government socialist bill.

As his political agenda falls apart the President has become more vitriolic and insulting in various speeches. Virtually every sensible person in politics is attacking Mr. Biden's poisonous speech yesterday in Atlanta. The fallout from those poisonous words continues to spread today.

Then on the hill, Mr. Biden threw another temper tantrum about losing on the election takeover bill, but also adding this bizarre screeching about who counts the votes. Listen to this:

“We missed this time. We missed this time. The state legislative bodies continue to change the law not on who can vote, but who gets to count the vote. Count the vote. Count the vote. It’s about election subversion.”

By the way, the answer to who counts the votes is the Democrats who run the election day operations throughout America’s big cities. They’re the vote counters. Not Republicans.

And, let’s not forget Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, who spent $450 million illegally placing his left-wing minions into election operations throughout the country and thereby bending every decision against Donald Trump and Republicans.

#1  WTF? Did he actually say this:

“We missed this time. We missed this time. The state legislative bodies continue to change the law not on who can vote, but who gets to count the vote. Count the vote. Count the vote. It’s about election subversion.”

He didn't really quote Stalin and commend subversion, did he?

Tell me this is actually Bee. I know he's an asshole and a mendacious plagiarizing pr!ck, but I can't believe our president's approvingly quotes no Stalin on election techniques.

If he did say it, he needs to be institutionalized. Doesn't matter what a sh!thead Harris is. Biden is finished in every sense. His brain's completely gone.

Africa Subsaharan
In distant Timbuktu
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin

[ColonelCassad] IWN reports that according to the Malian military, employees of the Wagner PMC have already settled in the former French military base in Timbuktu, from where the French were driven at the end of 2021. The base in Timbuktu will become the center for providing training by PMCs to the military personnel of the Malian army. It is also stated that the army of Mali will receive several Mi-17 helicopters and other military equipment as military support.

The Wagner deployment comes amid French tantrums and complaints that France is being effectively kicked out of a country it considered part of its sphere of influence. Hence the sanctions against the government of Mali through the EU and some African states dependent on France.

The military government that came to power after the coup explicitly states that Mali is fighting for national sovereignty and against French neo-colonialism. Calls for a boycott of all French goods and companies are spreading throughout the country.

Having got rid of the French colonial oppression, Mali will become a free country! Colonel Utkin will see to this.

A huge rally was held in Bomako just now in support of the military government and against French colonial aggression.

In addition, Sweden also announced the withdrawal of its troops from Mali.

France's attempts to raise the issue of Mali at the level of the UN Security Council were blocked by Russia and China.

In total, up to 500 armed people at the right time in the right place, and these are such wonderful consequences.

The decolonization movement in the French neo-colonial sphere of influence is bound to become contagious. After the Central African Republic and Mali, the next country liberated from French oppression could be Niger or Burkina Faso ..

Attack on Russian-speaking people
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[ColonelCassad] Pentagon spokesman John Kirby claimed without evidence that Russia was allegedly preparing a pretext for an invasion of Ukraine.

The Pentagon announced Russia's alleged intention to find a pretext for invading Ukraine

As Kirby noted, the American side allegedly has information that Russia has deployed a group of operatives to "conduct an operation under a false flag."

"An operation that should look like an attack on them or Russian-speaking people in Ukraine as a justification for an invasion," he said.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
Actually, nothing needs to be invented here. Ukraine has been attacking and killing Russian-speaking people in Donbas for 8 years. This excuse was so hard to find (no) And this pretext could (should) have been used back in 2014. And since then, almost 8 years have passed, and the attacks have not stopped. As well as the murders of Russians and Russian-speaking people who have been killed for 8 (!) years. Now, by the way, these are also attacks on Russian citizens who live in the Donbass.

What other new pretext is needed here if there is a goal to find a pretext? To kill them for 10 years for a round number? Or how much is enough?

It is quite natural that the Kremlin called all this insinuations, because if they wanted to use this pretext, they could have used it for a long time and repeatedly. It is also worth noting that in 2016, during a provocation on the border of Crimea, an FSB officer and a marine were killed. Also, quite a reinforced concrete pretext. For missile and bomb strikes, for example. And you don't have to think of anything.

Government Corruption
Nancy Pelosi's Son Has Suspicious Ties To 5 Companies That Were Investigated By Feds
[The Federalist] Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s son is linked to criminal-run companies which had multiple near-misses with the law, according to a new report.

While Paul Pelosi Jr. has never been charged with crimes, a new report from The Daily Mail suggests that he has ties to or worked for at least five companies that were investigated by federal prosecutors for various fraud and scamming schemes.
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three Five times is enemy action corruption on a Pelosi-level
Shortly after his mom assumed the role of Speaker of the House in 2007, Pelosi Jr. took a six-figure position at InfoUSA. The company was run by Vinod Gupta, a notable Democrat donor who was under investigation for allegedly selling consumers’ data to criminals who used it to scam vulnerable populations such as senior citizens. Even though the Iowa attorney general suggested that InfoUSA employees knew they were selling to alleged scammers, neither Gupta nor his company was charged.

Two years later, Pelosi Jr. assumed the presidency of Natural Blue Resources, an environmental company, after convicted fraudsters James Cohen and Joseph Corazzi recruited him so they could "personally profit from the company without disclosing their past brushes with the law to investors."

In Hunter Biden-esque fashion, Pelosi Jr. became vice president of biofuel company FOGFuels in 2013, just one month after the Securities and Exchange Commission filed charges against FOGFuels and founder Paul Marshall. According to the Daily Mail, Pelosi Jr. "left the FOGFuels position off his LinkedIn resume completely."

In 2014, he became the independent director of Targeted Medical Pharma, and left the company seven months later. Shortly afterward, the company was accused of conducting unauthorized trials by the Food and Drug Administration. The company was eventually cleared of wrongdoing.
