Now is the time to begin making America Healthy Again
I am a big believer in the phrase “united we stand, divided we fall.” As such, having watched a lot of infighting over the last few years, I have tried to support those who I believe are doing good work, and avoided attacking anyone else
Now that we are getting closer to something most of us never imagined being possible—health activists being able to change decades of destructive Federal policies, the stakes for unity are much higher and the forces working against it much more aggressive.
Recently, I shared an article by Dr. Robert Malone about the critical need to move beyond that infighting which highlighted the recent attacks upon Calley Means (e.g., he recently was on a viral podcast where another participant relentlessly tried to tear Calley and, to a lesser extent, MAHA down).
As I’ve previously been in very similar situations to what Calley encountered there, I felt it was more appropriate to have someone else (who would be less biased) comment on it. However, after posting it, many readers asked me to open the discussion here so they could comment on the points Malone raised.
As such, I felt an appropriate way to do that was to address some of the issues and concerns I’ve repeatedly seen crop up over the last few years and some of the strategies I believe can be beneficial for us to consider as we move from the fringe to the mainstream.
Non-Linear Social Change
In studying the history of movements that lead to social change, I typically find a fairly consistent pattern.
For a long time, there is an endless toil by a group of dedicated but marginalized group of people who can see the dire need for the change to happen but are mostly ignored, and then all of a sudden, in a brief period of time things rapidly shift and what had long seemed impossible suddenly happens.
In essence, they follow the same curve you see in many other areas of life (e.g., this curve resembles the trajectory of many successful online influencers and stocks).
One of the best historical examples of this was the Berlin Wall, a hated structure which separated East (communist) Germany from West Germany that arose from agreements made at the end of World War 2.
The wall was manned by guards authorized to use lethal force against anyone who attempted to cross it, and had remained unassailable for almost 40 years.
However, due to a series of events that had happened in the two preceding months, on November 9th, the government accidentally gave a message to the media that undermined the collective mindset that had held the population in check:
After hearing the 9 November broadcast, East Germans began gathering at the Wall, at the six checkpoints between East and West Berlin, demanding that border guards immediately open the gates.
The surprised and overwhelmed guards made many hectic telephone calls to their superiors about the problem. At first, they were ordered to find the “more aggressive” people gathered at the gates and stamp their passports with a special stamp that barred them from returning to East Germany—in effect, revoking their citizenship.
However, this still left thousands of people demanding to be let through “as Schabowski said we can.” It soon became clear that no one among the East German authorities would take personal responsibility for issuing orders to use lethal force, so the vastly outnumbered soldiers had no way to hold back the huge crowd of East German citizens.
Note: those events are very similar to the ending scene of V for Vendetta (which is one of my favorite movies)—and I suspect may have been the inspiration for that scene.
Before long, the guards yielded to those wishing to cross, citizens with flowers gathered to greet them on the Western side, people began scaling the wall, and by the end of the day, citizens began dismantling the wall.
Over the next few months, guards gradually gave up on trying to stop this or repair the wall, and half a year later, official demolitions of the wall began.
Mary Elise Sarotte in a 2009 Washington Post story characterized the series of events leading to the fall of the Wall as an accident, saying “One of the most momentous events of the past century was, in fact, an accident, a semicomical and bureaucratic mistake that owes as much to the Western media as to the tides of history.”
To reach the exponential phase, three typical things are needed:
•The foundation to be laid by years (if not decades) of arduous work.
•The societal circumstances to unexpectedly change so those dormant seeds can sprout.
•The right people to get involved who know how to sprout those seeds.
For example, in the case of this publication, most of the content I use comes from the lifework of many brilliant and pioneering individuals who came up with remarkable discoveries that could have profoundly benefitted humanity, but had emerged in eras where those seeds simply could not sprout (e.g., because market monopolies could suppress them with impunity).
It always deeply bothered me that those discoveries were not able to see the light of day, so I sought them out, both to use them in my immediate circle, but more importantly, in the hope that I could somehow preserve them for the time when they were ready to emerge.
The Seeds Sprout
For most of my life, I’d been involved in the vaccine safety field and a lifelong Democrat. As such, it was extremely disheartening to watch the profound shift which occurred in the Democrat party after Obama’s election where the entire Democrat party suddenly became pharmaceutical lapdogs, best demonstrated by a string of abhorrent childhood vaccine mandates that were pushed across the nation in 2015.
After SB277 was legalized (due to a measles “emergency” where no one died), a push to mandate vaccinations emerged throughout the country. In each state, I watched the same process play out.
A massive grassroots protest greeted the state legislatures, the legislature remarked that they had never had this much public opposition to a bill before, and in every single case, the legislators voted down party lines: all Democrats unilaterally supported the mandates and all Republicans eventually listened to their constituents and opposed them (Colorado was the closest as the Republicans had a narrow majority in the Senate which defeated the bill).
From this, I distinctly remember a Colorado activist who reported that they witnessed a pharmaceutical lobbyist typing messages on her laptop the Democratic legislators then repeated verbatim during a public hearing on the proposed law in response to testimonials against it.
At the time this was happening, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny (who has been one of the pioneers in the vaccine safety field and who I considered to be amongst the most knowledgeable of the political realities it faced) shared something I was really taken aback by.
She insisted the actual purpose of the vaccines mandates sweeping the country was to lay the ground for the Bill Gates WHO plan to usher in a decade of vaccines (discussed here) and that we would soon see adult vaccine mandates.
Note: Sherri Tenpenny DO also has a Substack (which is one of the ones I recommend).
When I heard this, my immediate thought was “that’s impossible, there is absolutely no way it’s politically viable to mandate adult vaccines for the general population. It would take something like the 1918 influenza to shift that.”
Nonetheless, while I doubted her prediction, for some reason I just couldn’t forget it, and I began searching for something that might be able to counteract this agenda. Before long this led me to the Tea Party (which by 2016 had largely disappeared from public view).
For example, in 2015, the Washington Post highlighted that the Tea Party had the lowest trust of scientists of the issue of vaccines:
Shortly after, Trump announced his candidacy for presidency and when I watched how he handled his first debate (specifically due to how he was able to turn around a question that would have likely ended any other candidacy and that there was no else running who had a comparable aptitude for debate) I realized that there was a high likelihood he would become the next president.
At that moment, three things dawned on me:
•Many of Trump’s populist positions came from the Tea Party.
•Trump had previously spoken out on vaccines.
•Trump typically did not like to backdown when challenged by the media, and hence had a realistic chance to be able to become elected while openly challenging the vaccine schedule (which was essentially political suicide and hence never done by a major candidate).
Because of this, after the first presidential debate, I put all my focus into trying to make questioning the pharmaceutical industry and health freedom be associated with Making America Great Again, and while it’s hard to know if what I did mattered, it may have helped plant a few of the seeds that later sprouted.
Four years later, in December 2019, I started seeing reports on anonymous forums about concerning virus breaking out in China which I initially thought had be an internet hoax as there no mainstream coverage of it (since the media and the government always hypes up inconsequential “pandemics”).
However, before long, it became clear to me it was very real and that it was being deliberately covered up (which suggested this was done to allow it to spread—consider for instance how much protest Trump’s travel bans got, or how prominent San Francisco and New York Democrats decried “racist” calls to call off large Chinese New Year gatherings).
Hearing Sherry Tenpenny’s warning in my mind, at the end of 2019, I quickly had a flash of how everything was going to play out (which was fairly accurate, in part because I had expected Fauci to orchestrate something similar to what he did during the HIV crisis).
As such, I felt the only way to head off the coming catastrophe would be to pray the health freedom coalition in the Republican party mobilized against COVID-19 and to have a viable treatment become available for the illness.
Sadly, despite the immense efforts both I and many others made, every path to get the therapies out was blocked and it went nowhere except within the parallel medical system (e.g., at private practices of integrative medical doctors).
Note: given how monolithic the forces we were against were, I had expected my efforts to be for naught, but nonetheless, I still tried because I didn’t want to have to live with the knowledge I’d done nothing once the inevitable catastrophe happened.
Once the vaccines hit the market, I realized I’d greatly underestimated how dangerous they were going to be, as I had thought they would cause significant issues for some and lead to a large number of long term chronic health conditions, but I had not expected to see multiple patients every day with serious reactions to the vaccine or have friends from around the country I’d warned about the vaccine start calling me up to ask if the COVID vaccines could cause heart attacks and strokes (all of which for some reason I felt I had to document—and ultimately collected 135 instances of).
Following this, give or take everything Sherri Tenpenny predicted came to pass, and one of the most challenging experiences for me was not being able to find a way to stop it no matter how hard I looked for a way to.
Likewise, it was so painful to watch close friends fold to the social pressure and mandates despite me pleading for them not to and then develop severe and permanent vaccine complications.
In essence, I just felt like a grain of sand on a beach that was powerless to stop the immense waves from washing us back and forth and I cannot begin describe how much I loathed it.
Note: one of the lasting effects of the Trump presidency was to create widespread distrust of the mainstream media with the Republican Party (dropping it from 32% of them trusting the media to 12% now). Because of this (and the Tea Party influences to question vaccination) many Republicans were reluctant to get the vaccine in spite of Trump’s assurances, and when the media used their standard playbook of slandering and gaslighting those who disagreed with its narrative (by not wanting to vaccinate) it backfired due to that already been greatly overused over the last 4 years.
Fortunately however, these abhorrent events convinced many others who had also been trying to fix things behind the scenes to begin publicly speaking out, such as this July, 11, 2021 Podcast that rippled across the internet (after which YouTube banned it).
In my eyes, this podcast was immensely important because on one hand it seemed to be the turning point where the internet’s attention switched to seriously considering the dangers of the vaccines.
More importantly, it occurred in concert with other professionals and public figures beginning to have the courage to speak out publicly about the vaccines.

I read the article with great interest and found it interesting and informative. The author’s intent in describing the vaccination debacle seems honest and admirable. However, I feel the cause of the debacle is missed. The rule of political leaders and activists in denouncing the vaccination is understandable. However, the issue is not political – selling fraud (medical/health) science is the one, and viruses/vaccination is one small part.
The claim and use of fraudulent science must be stopped in the future. A serious out-of-the-box (so-called medical science) thinking is urgently needed.

Wildfire Today Read on blog or Reader
Historic Los Angeles wildfires are anything but ‘unprecedented’
By Hunter Bassler on January 9, 2025
The Palisades Fire may well turn out to be the most destructive wildfire in Los Angeles history, even while today it remains uncontained and growing.
The wildfire was 0% contained and had destroyed more than 1,000 structures in and around the city’s Pacific Palisades Neighborhood less than 24 hours after igniting, officials confirmed at a press conference.
Whatever the cause of ignition, a combination of hurricane-force winds, drought, and an abundance of newly-grown vegetation that had quickly dried, created the perfect storm for rapid and destructive wildfire spread.
The Palisades Fire, and at least four other fires that ignited on the same day, were often called “unprecedented” by officials and the media, but they were anything but. These fires may well be the most destructive for L.A. but they are only unprecedented to those who have forgotten the past history of fire in the area – or forgotten the precedents of the Camp Fire of 2018 or the Australian Black Summer Fires of 2019-20 or Greece of 2023, and others.
The wildfire risks for these parts of L.A. have been well documented over many years, and a similar conflagration happened in the city less than two decades earlier. One of the most read articles on Wildfire Today this week – possibly mistakenly due to their similarities – is a round-up of the 2019 fires around L.A.

Hi PSI Readers,
Did not intend to submit this comment until I checked it out. Now I have confirmed the present wildfires.
Have a good day
