UK Gov. Data Shows COVID Injections are Killing Children. Report Demonstrates that "Vaccinated" Kids are Substantially More Likely to Die than Unvaccinated Kids

From [HERE] and [EXPOSE] On June 17th 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) criminally extended the emergency use authorisation of the mRNA Covid-19 injections for use in children as young as 6 months. 

There has never been an emergency in regard to Covid-19 infection among children. Two years of evidence show the alleged disease has only adversely affected the elderly and vulnerable. Children have been unlucky to suffer symptoms more severe than those associated with the common cold. 

But despite this fact, the FDA has decided it is perfectly safe to administer an experimental injection to babies and toddlers, with FDA Commissioner Robert Califf saying – 

“Many parents, caregivers and clinicians have been waiting for a vaccine for younger children and this action will help protect those down to 6 months of age.  As we have seen with older age groups, we expect that the vaccines for younger children will provide protection from the most severe outcomes of COVID-19, such as hospitalization and death. 

Those trusted with the care of children can have confidence in the safety and effectiveness of these COVID-19 vaccines and can be assured that the agency was thorough in its evaluation of the data.”

The FDA Commissioner will live to regret that last sentence. As will any parent who takes the Commissioners words at face value. Because official data from the UK’s Office for National Statistics show that Covid-19 vaccinated children are between 8,100% and 30,200% more likely to die than unvaccinated children.

On 16th May 2022, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) published a dataset containing details on ‘deaths by vaccination status in England’ between 1st Jan 2021 and 31st March 2022.

The ONS data shows that between 1st Jan 21 and 31st March 22, double vaccinated children aged 10-14 were statistically up to 39 times more likely to die than unvaccinated children, and double vaccinated teenagers aged 15-19 were statistically up to 4 times more likely to die than unvaccinated teenagers.

For every 100,000 kids aged 10 to 14 who were FULLY VACCINATED in England, over 40 died from Covid-19. That’s a negative effectiveness rate against death of minus 13,633 percent among the triple-vaxxed kids and early teens, but that’s not all. The ONS failed to publish the death rate for children under 10 years young, obviously because that was most likely even MORE shocking. [MORE]

…The ONS data shows that between 1st Jan 21 and 31st March 22, triple jabbed children aged 10-14 were statistically 303 times more likely to die than unvaccinated children of Covid-19, 69x more likely to die of any cause other than Covid-19 than unvaccinated children, and 82x more likely to die of all-causes than unvaccinated children.

This suggests that three doses of a Covid-19 injection increase the risk of all-cause death for children by an average of 8,100%, and the risk of dying of Covid-19 by an average of 30,200%. Whilst two doses increase the risk of all-cause death by an average of 3,600%.

But as things currently stand it’s the other way round for teenagers. Two doses of a Covid-19 injection increase the risk of all-cause death for teens aged 15 to 19 by an average of 300%. Whilst three doses increase the risk of all-cause death by an average of 100%. [MORE]

Letter from 76 Doctors Urgently Tells the UK Government: ‘mRNA Vaccines Are Inappropriate for Small Children’

From [CHD] The letter below was signed by 76 doctors in the U.K. and sent to the Medical and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), and other U.K. Government officials.

This letter lays out comprehensive reasons why the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA’s) decision authorizing COVID vaccinations in infants and young children must not happen in the U.K.

June 30, 2022

Dear Dr. Raine,

We are writing to you urgently concerning the announcement that the FDA has granted an Emergency Use Authorization for both Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines in preschool children.

We would urge you to consider very carefully the move to vaccinate ever younger children against SARS-CoV-2, despite the gradual but significant reducing virulence of successive variants, the increasing evidence of rapidly waning vaccine efficacy, the increasing concerns over long-term vaccine harms, and the knowledge that the vast majority of this young age group have already been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 repeatedly and have demonstrably effective immunity.

Thus, the balance of benefit and risk which supported the rollout of mRNA vaccines to the elderly and vulnerable in 2021 is totally inappropriate for small children in 2022.

We also strongly challenge the addition of COVID-19 vaccination into the routine child immunization program despite no demonstrated clinical need, known and unknown risks (see below) and the fact that these vaccines still have only conditional marketing authorization.

It is noteworthy that the Pfizer documentation presented to the FDA has huge gaps in the evidence provided:

  • The protocol was changed mid-trial. The original two-dose schedule exhibited poor immunogenicity with efficacy far below the required standard. A third dose was added by which time many of the original placebo recipients had been vaccinated.

  • There was no statistically significant difference between the placebo and vaccinated groups in either the 6-23-month age group or the 2-4-year-olds, even after the third dose. Astonishingly, the results were based on just three participants in the younger age group (one vaccinated and two placebo) and just seven participants in the older 2-4-year-olds (two vaccinated and five placebo). Indeed, for the younger age group the confidence intervals ranged from minus-367% to plus-99%. The manufacturer stated that the numbers were too low to draw any confident conclusions. Moreover, these limited numbers come only from children infected more than seven days after the third dose.

  • Over the whole time period from the first dose onwards (see page 39 Tables 19 and 20), there were a total of 225 infected children in the vaccinated arm and 150 in the placebo arm, giving a calculated vaccine efficacy of only 25% (14% for the 6-23 months, and 33% for 2-4s).

  • The additional immunogenicity studies against Omicron, requested by the FDA, only involved a total of 66 children tested one month after the third dose (see page 35).

It is incomprehensible that the FDA considered that this represents sufficient evidence on which to base a decision to vaccinate healthy children. When it comes to safety, the data are even thinner: only 1,057 children, some already unblinded, were followed for just two months.

It is noteworthy that Sweden and Norway are not recommending the vaccine for 5-11s and Holland is not recommending it for children who have already had COVID-19.

The director of the Danish Health and Medicines Authority stated recently that with what is now known, the decision to vaccinate children was a mistake.

We summarize below the overwhelming arguments against this vaccination.

A. Extremely low risk from COVID-19 to young children

  • In the whole of 2020 and 2021, not a single child aged 1-9 died where COVID-19 was the sole diagnosis on the death certificate, according to ONS data.

  • A detailed study in England from March 1, 2020, to March 1, 2021, found only six children under 18 years died with no co-morbidities. There were no deaths aged 1-4 years.

  • Children clear the virus more easily than adults.

  • Children mount effective, robust, and sustained immune responses.

  • Since the arrival of the Omicron variant, infections have been generally much milder. That is also true for unvaccinated under-5s.

  • By June 2022 it is now estimated that 89% of 1-4-year-olds had already had SARS-CoV-2 infection.

  • Recent data from Israel show excellent long-lasting immunity following infection in children, especially in 5-11s.

B. Poor vaccine efficacy

  • In adults, it has become apparent that vaccine efficacy wanes steadily over time, necessitating boosters at regular intervals. Specifically, vaccine efficacy has waned more rapidly against the latest Omicron variants.

  • In children, vaccine efficacy has waned more rapidly in 5-11s than in 12-17s, possibly related to the lower dose used in the pediatric formulation. One study from New York showed efficacy against Omicron falling to only 12% by 4-5 weeks and to negative values by 5-6 weeks post second dose.

  • In the Pfizer 0-4s trial, the efficacy after two doses fell to negative values, necessitating a change to the trial protocol. After a third dose, there was a suggestion of efficacy from 7-30 days but there is no data beyond 30 days to see how quickly this will wane.

C. Potential harms of COVID-19 vaccines for children

  • There has been great concern about myocarditis in adolescents and young adults, especially in males after the second dose, estimated at one per 2,600 in active post-marketing surveillance in Hong Kong. The emerging evidence of persistent cardiac abnormalities in adolescents with post-mRNA vaccine myopericarditis, as demonstrated by cardiac MRI at 3-8 months follow-up, suggests this is far from ‘mild and short-lived’. The potential for longer-term effects requires further study and calls for the strictest application of the precautionary principle in respect of the youngest and most vulnerable children.

  • Although post-vaccination myocarditis appears to be less common in 5-11-year-olds than older children, it is, nonetheless, increased over baseline.

  • In the Pfizer study, 50% of vaccinated children had systemic adverse events, including irritability and fever. Diagnosis of myocarditis is much more difficult in younger children. No troponin levels or ECG studies were documented. Even a vaccinated child in the trial, hospitalized with fever, calf pain and a raised CPK, had no report of D-dimers, anti-platelet antibodies, or troponin levels.

  • In Pfizer’s 5-11s post-authorization conditions, it is required to conduct studies looking for myocarditis and is not due to report results until 2027.

  • Of equal concern are, as yet unknown, negative effects on the immune system. In the 0-4s trial, only seven children were described as having “severe” COVID-19 – six vaccinated and one given placebo. Similarly, for the 12 children with recurrent episodes of infection, 10 were vaccinated against only two who received placebo. These are all tiny figures and much too small to rule out any adverse impacts such as antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) and other impacts on the immune system.

  • Also unanswered is the question of Original Antigenic Sin. It is of note that in a large Israeli study, those infected after vaccination had poorer cover than those vaccinated after infection. In the Moderna trial, N-antibodies were seen in only 40% of those infected after vaccination, compared with 93% of those infected after placebo.

  • There is evidence of vaccine-induced disruption of both innate and adaptive immune responses. The possibility of developing an impaired immune function would be disastrous for children, who have the most competent innate immunity, which by now has been effectively trained by the circulating virus.

  • Totally unknown is whether there will be any adverse effect on T-cell function leading to an increase in cancers.

  • Also, in terms of reproductive function, limited animal bio-distribution studies showed lipid nanoparticles concentrate in ovaries and testes. Adult sperm donors have showed a reduction in sperm counts particularly of motile sperm, falling by three months post-vaccination and remaining depressed at four to five months.

  • Even for adults, concerns are rising that serious adverse events are in excess of hospitalizations from COVID-19.

D. Informed consent

  • For 5-11s, the JCVI, in recommending a “non-urgent offer” of vaccination, specifically noted the importance of fully informed consent with no coercion.

  • With the low uptake in this age group, the presence of ‘therapy dogs’, advertisements including superhero images and information about child vaccination protecting friends and family all clearly run contrary to the concept of consent, fully informed and freely given.

  • The complete omission of information explaining to the public the different and novel technology used in COVID-19 vaccines compared to standard vaccines, and the failure to inform of the lack of any long-term safety data, borders on misinformation.

E. Effect on public confidence

  • Vaccines against much more serious diseases, such as polio and measles, need to be prioritized. Pushing an unnecessary and novel, gene-based vaccine onto young children risks seriously undermining parental confidence in the whole immunization program.

  • The poor quality of the data presented by Pfizer risks bringing the pharmaceutical industry into disrepute and the regulators if this product is authorized.

In summary, young healthy children are at minimal risk from COVID-19, especially since the arrival of the Omicron variant. Most have been repeatedly exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, yet have remained well, or have had short, mild illness.

As detailed above, the vaccines are of brief efficacy and have known short- to medium-term risks and unknown long-term safety. Data for clinically useful efficacy in small children are scant or absent.

In older children, for whom the vaccines are already licensed, they have been promoted via ethically dubious schemes to the potential detriment of other, and vital, parts of the childhood vaccination program.

For a tiny minority of children for whom the potential for benefit clearly and unequivocally outweighed the potential for harm, vaccination could have been facilitated by restrictive licenses.

Whether following the precautionary principle or the instruction to First Do No Harm, such vaccines have no place in a routine childhood immunization program.

[Genthanasia = A Slow Motion Extermination of Undesirable People by Elites] According to UK Data Thousands of People are Dying “Unexpectedly” Every Week in the Post-Covid Era

From [Natural News] For the week ending July 8, 2022, 10,232 deaths were recorded by the United Kingdom’s Office for National Statistics (ONS), 432 of which were recorded as being related to the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19). This is nearly 1,000 more deaths than normal compared to pre-covid levels, a trend that has been going on for at least the past 11 weeks.

“Excess deaths,” as they call them, have been noteworthy ever since Chinese Virus injections were first introduced. Many now believe that the cause is the shot, which is why there have been calls to end the jabbing and boosting agenda.

“This is not just a U.K. phenomenon,” said Dr. John Campbell, PhD, in a July 6, 2022, video. “This is an international phenomenon.”

Dr. Campbell earned his doctorate from the University of Bolton in 2013, with an emphasis on teaching biosciences in the context of national and international nurse education. His YouTube channel, which boasts some 2.39 million subscribers, contains many videos about the Fauci Flu and the lies that are being told about it.

“Way more people are dying than we would expect based on the previous five years,” he says. “What is going on here? This is too many to be a statistical artifact. This is a genuine effect.”

Covid “vaccines” are a form of mass genocide

Dr. Michael Yeadon, a former vice president at Pfizer, has also come forward with claims that Chinese Virus injections are, in fact, responsible for the excess deaths phenomenon now being seen all around the world.

Prior to Operation Warp Speed, death rates were mostly stable and generally predictable. Now, more people are dying than usual, and there is only one obvious culprit: the jabs.

Even if you exclude the deaths that are being blamed on covid and not the jabs, there is still an excess of them that cannot be explained by anything other than the jabs, Campbell says.

“Excluding that data, the excess death rate in 2022 for England and Wales is 16.6 percent combined, and 18.2 percent just in Wales alone,” write Jennifer Margulis and Joe Wang for The Epoch Times.

One young boy, 14-year-old Ted Sanderson, died suddenly at his school, Woodham Academy, on June 21. Sanderson received his covid injections as recommended by the government, and now his life is over.

That same day, another person named Chris Houghton-Rai collapsed while working his job at a Toyota dealership. For 90 minutes, paramedics tried to revive him but were unable to stop his sudden death.

About a week later, a retired professional soccer player named Gary Pearson, who had just taken on a new job as a soccer team manager, collapsed at his home. Two weeks prior, Pearson had received heart surgery and was “expected to make a complete recovery.”

That did not happen, though, as Pearson, who was described by his friends as being “fit and healthy,” died for no apparent reason. Like Houghton-Rai, paramedics tried to revive Pearson but to no avail.

While plandemic-induced stress and isolation may have also played a role in some of the excess deaths, leading to fatal conditions like cancer that were left either undiagnosed or untreated, the biggest elephant in the room is the injections.

Some post-injection deaths are immediate, but others take weeks or even months to develop. It all depends on a person’s immune capacity as well as any pre-existing conditions that may exist.

Neurologist Dr. Tom Lowry, MD, a concussion and musculoskeletal expert based out of San Antonio, says he and his colleagues are likewise seeing an uptick in neurological damage ever since the jabs were introduced – and young people are especially prone to these conditions, he says.

“We should be doing autopsies on every one of these young people,” Lowry is quoted as saying. “If we did, we would know for sure within six months what is actually going on.”

Professor Richard Ennos Says Official data From Scotland for 2021 -2022 ‘Provide Very Strong Evidence for a Causal Relationship’ Between Vaccinations and a Huge Number of Excess Deaths

From [JOEL SMALLEY] A dramatic and unexplained resurgence in excess death in Scotland points to the covid-19 injections, it is being claimed.

Retired Edinburgh professor Richard Ennos says official data for 2021 and 2022 ‘provide very strong evidence for a causal relationship’ between the vaccinations and a huge number of excess deaths in the country.

Professor Ennos has written to Siobhian Brown MSP, convener of the Scottish government’s covid-19 recovery committee, calling on her to re-open a public inquiry into the deaths which can only be partially explained by the virus.

Earlier this year, the committee investigated the cause of an unprecedented level of excess death recorded in Scotland from week 21 to week 52 of 2021.

Numbering 4,819, it was 12% above the average – the worst ever recorded.

Recorded deaths so far in 2022 are heading in the same direction, and Professor Ennos suggests they are now a consequence of the booster jab.

In a recent letter to Ms Brown, on July 12, he also expresses his concern that the public inquiry earlier this year into the 2021 excess death figures failed to make any mention of the injections as a potential cause.

He states that of 103 public submissions to the inquiry, more than a third pointed to the jabs as a possible reason for the inflated loss of lives.

He tells Ms Brown: ‘However, in your report to Humza Yousaf, cabinet secretary for health and social care, there was not a single mention of adverse reactions to covid-19 vaccines as a possible cause of the excess death seen Scotland in 2021.

‘This was despite the fact that a number of respondents provided detailed information from peer reviewed scientific papers showing that death is a known adverse reaction to the covid-19 vaccines, and that a variety of mechanisms of action have been established (induction of blood clots, myocarditis etc.).

‘Post mortems have also confirmed that covid-19 vaccination can cause death of recipients, and this is acknowledged by the UK government who have already paid compensation to multiple families of those who have died as a consequence of covid-19 vaccination.

‘Your lack of any reference to covid-19 vaccine adverse reactions as a contributor to excess death in Scotland in 2021 is even more concerning because recent detailed analysis of National Records of Scotland data now suggests a causal relationship between excess death in Scotland and covid-19 vaccinations.’

Professor Ennos states that the argument leading to this conclusion begins with the observation that in the last 32 weeks of 2021, excess death began in different age classes of the Scottish population in a staggered manner, approximately 12 weeks after peak vaccination of that age class.

Beginning with the oldest, this pattern was repeated as the jabs rollout continued down through ever younger age groups.

He suggests there can only be two reasons put forward for the extra deaths: it was the injections or it was a lack of medical care caused either by withdrawal of NHS services, or to patients’ failure to access these services, ‘both consequences of the Scottish government response to covid-19’.

However, he says, there was no consistent rise in excess deaths to point to delayed medical care as a result of long waiting lists.

Instead, what National Records of Scotland data reveal, says Professor Ennos, is a second staggering of excess deaths following the booster (third dose) jab – with 2022 mirroring the pattern of 2021 whereby age group deaths occurred approximately 12 weeks after peak administration of the vaccine.

Due to Deaths Caused by COVID Shots Lincoln National, the 5th Largest US Life Insurance Company, Reported a 163% Increase in Death Benefits Paid Under its Group Life Insurance Policies in 2021

From [HERE] Five months after breaking the story of the CEO of One America insurance company saying deaths among working people ages 18-64 were up 40% in the third quarter of 2021, I can report that a much larger life insurance company, Lincoln National, reported a 163% increase in death benefits paid out under its group life insurance policies in 2021.

This is according to the annual statements filed with state insurance departments — statements that were provided exclusively to Crossroads Report in response to public records requests.

The reports show a more extreme situation than the 40% increase in deaths in the third quarter of 2021 that was cited in late December by One America CEO Scott Davison — an increase that he said was industry-wide and that he described at the time as “unheard of” and “huge, huge numbers” and the highest death rates that have ever been seen in the history of the life insurance business.

The annual statements for Lincoln National Life Insurance Company show that the company paid out in death benefits under group life insurance polices a little over $500 million in 2019, about $548 million in 2020, and a stunning $1.4 billion in 2021.

From 2019, the last normal year before the pandemic, to 2020, the year of the Covid-19 virus, there was an increase in group death benefits paid out of only 9 percent. But group death benefits in 2021, the year the vaccine was introduced, increased almost 164 percent over 2020.

Here are the precise numbers for Group Death Benefits taken from Lincoln National’s annual statements for the three years:

2019: $500,888,808

2020: $547,940,260

2021: $1,445,350,949

Here are the key numbers for 2021, below, shown on the company’s annual statement that was filed with the Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services. These are national numbers, not state-specific:

Lincoln National is the fifth-largest life insurance company in the United States, according to BankRate, after New York Life, Northwestern Mutual, MetLife and Prudential.

The company was founded in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1905, getting the OK from Abraham Lincoln’s son, Robert Todd Lincoln, to use his father’s name and likeness in its advertising.

It’s now based in Radnor, Pennsylvania.

The annual statements filed with the states do not show the number of claims — only the total dollar amount of claims paid.

Group life insurance policies, in most cases, cover working-age adults ages 18-64 whose employer includes life insurance as an employee benefit.

How many deaths are represented by the 163% increase? It is not possible to determine by the dollar figures on the statements.

But the average death benefit for employer-provided group life insurance, according to the Society for Human Resource Management, is one year’s salary.

If the average annual salary of people covered by group life insurance policies in the United States is $70,000, this may represent 20,647 deaths of working adults, covered by just this one insurance company. This would represent at least 10,000 more deaths than in a normal year for just this one company.

The statements for the three years also show a sizable increase in ordinary death benefits — those not paid out under group policies, but under individual life insurance policies.

In 2019, the baseline year, that number was $3.7 billion. In 2020, the year of the Covid-19 pandemic, it went up to $4 billion, but in 2021, the year in which the vaccine was administered to almost 260 million Americans, it went up to $5.3 billion.

The statements show that the total amount that Lincoln National paid out for all direct claims and benefits in 2021 was more than $28 billion, $6 billion more than in 2020, when it paid out a total of $22 billion, which was less than the $23 billion it paid out in 2019, the baseline year. [MORE]

Attorney Generals from Missouri and Louisiana Subpoena Fauci, Biden Officials in Lawsuit Alleging Collusion w/Social Media to Silence Speech. Companies Falsely Labeled Truthful Content Disinformation

From [CHD] Top-ranking Biden administration officials — including Dr. Anthony Fauci — and five social media giants have 30 days to respond to subpoenas and discovery requests in a lawsuit alleging the government colluded with social media companies to suppress freedom of speech “under the guise of combatting misinformation.”

Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry on Wednesday served third-party subpoenas on Twitter, Meta (Facebook’s parent company), Youtube, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Schmitt and Landry on Tuesday filed discovery requests seeking documents and information from the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and Fauci, its director; White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre; Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy; and former Disinformation Governance Board executive director Nina Jankowicz.

Discovery requests also were sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and its director, Jen Easterly; the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS); and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services(HHS).

“In May, Missouri and Louisiana filed a landmark lawsuit against top-ranking Biden Administration officials for allegedly colluding with social media giants to suppress free speech on topics like COVID-19 and election security,” Schmitt said in Tuesday’s press release.

Schmitt added:

“Earlier this month, a federal court granted our motion for expedited discovery, allowing us to collect important documents from Biden Administration officials. Yesterday, we served discovery requests and today served third-party subpoenas to do exactly that.

“We will fight to get to the bottom of this alleged collusion and expose the suppression of freedom of speech by social media giants at the behest of top-ranking government officials.”

Schmitt announced in a July 12 statement that Terry Doughty, a judge in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, ruled in favor of a June 17 motion for expedited preliminary injunction-related discovery and set a timetable with specific deadlines for depositions.

According to Schmitt, government officials “both pressured and colluded with social media giants Meta, Twitter and Youtube to censor free speech in the name of combating so-called ‘disinformation’ and ‘misinformation,’ which led to the suppression and censorship of truthful information on several topics, including COVID-19.”

“The Court’s decision cleared the way for Missouri and Louisiana to gather discovery and documents from Biden Administration officials and social media companies,” Schmitt said in a press release on Tuesday.

“The order states, ‘The First Amendment obviously applies to the citizens of Missouri and Louisiana, so Missouri and Louisiana have the authority to assert those rights,’” he said.

In a statement on Twitter announcing the court’s decision to grant the attorneys general’s request, Schmitt said, “No one has had the chance to look under the hood before — now we do.”

Children’s Health Defense (CHD) President Mary Holland, who also serves as CHD general counsel, praised the ruling:

“CHD welcomes this groundbreaking ruling from Judge Doughty of the Western District of Louisiana to discover whether the Biden administration has violated the First Amendment through censorship.

“For two years, CHD and many other media outlets have not been able to comprehend the mechanisms whereby our major media platforms have ruthlessly censored, suppressed and distorted our information.

“Now, through the discovery process that the judge has allowed, we’ll find out how Meta, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube have been colluding with the federal government to curb so-called ‘disinformation’ and ‘misinformation.’ This is a new day.”

Fauci, CDC, White House press secretary and more must turn over documents

According to the press release, Fauci, chief medical advisor to President Biden and director of the NIAID, was asked to turn over any communications with social media platforms related to content modulation and/or misinformation, and to disclose all meetings with any social media platform related to the subject and to provide all communications with Mark Zuckerberg from Jan. 1, 2020, to the present.

Fauci also must turn over all communications with any social media platform related to the Great Barrington Declaration; the authors and original signers of the Great Barrington Declaration; Dr. Jay Bhattacharya; Martin Kulldorff, Ph.D.; Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, Sunetra Gupta, Ph.D.; Dr. Scott Atlas; Alex Berenson; Peter Daszak, Ph.D.; Shi Zhengli, Ph.D.; the Wuhan Institute of Virology; EcoHealth Alliance; and/or any member of the so-called “Disinformation Dozen,” including CHD chairman and chief legal counsel Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is required to identify every officer, official, employee, staff member, personnel, contractor or any other person associated with the White House communications team who communicated or is communicating with any social media platform related to content modulation and/or misinformation — and to turn over those communications.

Jean-Pierre also must identify all persons who “engage[s] regularly with all social media platforms about steps that can be taken” to address misinformation on social media, which engagement “has continued, and … will continue,” as stated during an April 25 White House press briefing — and turn over all communications with any social media platform involved in such engagement.

Defendant Nina Jankowicz, who was tasked with heading up the Biden administration’s “Disinformation Governance Board” must provide all documents related to communications with social media platforms and content modulation and/or misinformation.

Jankowicz is required to identify the nature, purpose, participants, topics to be discussed and topics actually discussed at the meeting between DHS personnel and Twitter executives Nick Pickles and Yoel Roth scheduled on or around April 28.

The CDC is required to provide the names of every officer, official, employee, staff member, personnel, contractor or agent of CDC or any other federal official or agency who communicated or is communicating with any social media platform regarding content modulation and/or misinformation.

The CDC must disclose communications with any social media platform related to content modulation or misinformation, any meetings that took place with social media platforms related to content modulation and/or misinformation, and must identify all “members of our senior staff” and/or “members of our COVID-19 team” who are “in regular touch with … social media platforms,” as “Jennifer Psaki [former White House press secretary] stated at a White House press briefing on or around July 15, 2021.”

The agency must also disclose all “government experts” who are federal officers, officials, agents, employees or contractors, who have “partnered with” Facebook or any other social media platform to address misinformation and/or content modulation, including all communications relating to such partnerships.

Like Fauci, the CDC must turn over information and communications on the “so-called disinformation dozen,” Great Barrington Declaration, alternative news outlets and key experts and scientists who have spoken out against the government’s approach to treating COVID-19 or mandating face masks and lockdowns.

Meta (Facebook) was “commanded” to produce all communications with any federal official relating to misinformation and/or content modulation, to produce all documents and communications-related actions taken based in whole or in part on information received, directly or indirectly, from any federal official and to produce all communications and documents related to a list of search terms that include Kennedy’s name and/or the names of prominent doctors and physicians who were censored for their views on COVID-19.

Facebook also must disclose meetings, communications and documents related to remarks made by Psaki, who said the White House is “in regular touch with these social media platforms, and those engagements typically happen through members of our senior staff, but also members of our COVID-19 team,” and regarding the White House’s efforts to flag “problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation.”

Similar requests were made to other government officials and social media platforms, including TwitterYouTubeInstagram and LinkedIn.

Lawsuit alleges collusion to suppress disfavored speakers and viewpoints

Attorneys general of Louisiana and Missouri in May filed a lawsuit alleging government defendants “colluded with and/or coerced social media companies to suppress disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content on social media platforms by labeling the content ‘disinformation,’ ‘misinformation’ and ‘malinformation.’”

The count lawsuit alleges social media companies falsely labeled truthful content “disinformation” and “misinformation” and contends the suppression constitutes government action, violating free speech protected by the U.S. constitution.

The complaint also alleges that DHS’ Disinformation Governance Board was created “to induce, label, and pressure the censorship of disfavored content, viewpoints and speakers on social-media platforms,” and that HHS and DHS violated the Administrative Procedure Act to “hold unlawful and set aside final agency actions” that are deemed to be an abuse of power and arbitrary and capricious.

The lawsuit provides several examples of truthful information that was censored by social media companies who later admitted the content was truthful or credible.

According to The Epoch Times, the lawsuit could help bring to light the Biden administration’s “behind-the-scenes efforts” to discourage the dissemination of information related to the lab-leak theory of COVID-19’s origins and the efficiency of masks and lockdowns.

Attorney Reiner Füllmich: COVID Injections Were Designed to Experiment on the Human Race

From [HERE] German lawyer Reiner Füllmich and at least 50 of his colleagues have concluded that the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines are designed to experiment on the human race. They arrived at that conclusion after hearing the statements of witnesses in the German Corona Investigative Committee – particularly that of former Pfizer executive Dr. Mike Yeadon.

According to Yeadon, the vaccine manufacturers are still trying to find out what dosage an unknown toxin is needed to kill people. He added that the mortality rate linked to the vaccines is traceable based on the lot numbers of the different batches, some appear to be more lethal than others.

The lawyers said that when taking a look at the available evidence, the main goal of the injections seems to be global depopulation. Füllmich also said the lawyers, who are preparing an international lawsuit against Pfizer, were no longer in doubt as poisoning and mass murder through the vaccines are intentionally being perpetrated on people.

Journalist Ulf Bittner and podcaster Sverige Granskas also stated in their interviews that in Sweden, injuries and death related to known lot numbers are seen to be similar in the different healthcare regions. Bittner is in contact with a vaccine coordinator who was able to provide documents to keep track of the people injured or dead related to the vaccine batches. (Related: COVID vaccines killing more children than the virus, but the government does not care.)

Some lots are extremely dangerous and lethal

It appears that the barcodes at the bottom of the vaccine doses indicate which ones are placebo – the harmless dose being injected to politicians and prominent individuals.

However, Füllmich and his team believe that all of the lots are dangerous.

“The much more important piece of information that we got from Mike Yeadon when we spoke with him in our Corona committee session is that there are certain lots that are extremely dangerous and deadly,” Füllmich explained.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Ruby said these pharmaceutical companies not only created lethal batches – they also had codes that allowed them to check which lots are toxic and which ones are causing disabilities, or indicate which disabilities are likely to appear.

Ruby said that for Moderna, it is batch or lot code 011 l 20., which represents the temporal batch order, the concentration that determines the toxicity and the number of adverse reactions. With the number 20 being qualitative, Ruby said an ingredient is considered toxic in these batch lots.

“What it boils down to is that this is about population reduction,” Füllmich said. He explained that if these companies are going to use deadly doses right from the start, they are going to scare everyone off. That’s why they’re experimenting with the right dose that could kill off five to 20 percent of the population. Legally, it means that there is no negligence and that they are not making mistakes.

“This is compelling evidence of premeditated mass murder. Punitive damages come into play whenever you’re dealing with a bad actor who is intentionally doing something harmful, and that is what we’re dealing with here,” he added. (Related: DEPOPULATION: Thanks in part to COVID jabs, most US counties lost population in 2021.)

The makers of the vaccines, the politicians who pushed for them, the mainstream media that advertised them and the doctors who administered the shots are all in it, and Füllmich has promised to bring them to justice.

After Biden Said 'If You're Vaxed You Won't Get COVID, Die or Spread COVID' and 'Approved Vaccines are Available,' Why Would U Believe Anything this Lying MF Says? His Lies Destroyed Informed Consent

Corpse Biden is the latest puppetician, celebrity or social influencer to be showcased by Uncle Brother as “having COVID” in Its propaganda effort to create human vaccine dependence for depopulation and greater control over humanity. The vested interests are trying to kill us. This hollow wooden dummy who only speaks when CrimethInc speaks through him doesn’t have COVID. He doesn’t know what he has because he is fast asleep even while awake. Although he will be responsible for the death of millions of Americans he will probably never be held accountable; he is not likely to serve a second term or be alive to see to his Nuremberg trial. [MORE]

A new film called “Uninformed Consent,” presumably about how authorities destroyed informed consent and coerced populations into taking deadly COVID injections premiers tonight, 7/23/22. The trailer is above and below.

Pursuant to the Nuremberg Code:

a) Informed consent to participate in a medical experiment.
The first principle of the Nuremberg Code is a willingness and informed consent by the person to receive treatment and participate in an experiment. The person is supposed to activate freedom of choice without the intervention, either through force, deceit, fraud, threat, solicitation, or any other type of binding or coercion.

People have not been advised that they are taking part in a medical experiment and that their consent is required under the Nuremberg Code. This as a matter of fact is a genetic medical experiment on human beings performed without informed consent under a severe and blatant offense of the Nuremberg Code.

b) Alternative treatments
– On the subject of informed consent for medical treatment, and based on the Nuremberg Code principles, an obligation exists to detail and suggest to a patient several treatment alternatives, detailing the medical process (and all that is included in it) as well as the advantages and disadvantages/ benefits and risks, existing in every treatment, to enable him to make an intelligent personal decision regarding the treatment he prefers. As stated, this choice must be made freely by the individual.

The US Government has purposefully failed to present the citizens with the currently existing alternatives for treating Covid 19. Alternative treatments that have now been proven to be both extremely safe and extremely efficacious in the treatment of Covid 19 with up to a 100% success rate with alternative treatments mentioned above. The government continues to solicit citizens, pressuring and manipulating them in blatant violation of the informed consent process, intentionally concealing information regarding the vaccinations and creating an atmosphere of fear and coercion.

The experiment will be conducted to prevent suffering or physical injury.

It is known that the m-RNA ‘vaccination’ treatments have caused the death of many as well as injury and severe damage (including disablement and paralysis) after the ‘vaccine’ was administered. Despite this fact, the government did not instruct the initiation of an investigation into the matter. It is also questionable that given the experimental nature of these vaccinations, that there are not any full reports available of the numbers of dead or injured, as may be expected in such a medical process for the benefit of the public participating in the experiment.

d) The experiment must not be conducted when there is reason to assume that death or real injury will occur. The government, vaccine manufacturers and medical professionals and the Dependent Media know full well that vaccines are killing millions of people worldwide.

e) The individual in charge of the experiment must be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he has probable cause to believe it will cause injury, disability or death of the experiment participant.

It has already been proven that many have died from the m-RNA treatments, were injured or became disabled; however the Government continues to compel and propagandize this dangerous experiment on its citizens. [MORE]

On 7/28 Alabama Authorities Plan to Murder Joe Nathan James Against the Wishes of the Victim's Family. Court Appointed Attorney Presented No Mitigating Evidence at Trial and He was Sentenced to Death

Presently 170 people are on Alabama’s list of people to murder (death row). 83 or about 50% are Black. [MORE]

From [DPIC] and [EJI] If Alabama executes Joe Nathan James on July 28, 2022 for the murder of Faith Hall, it cannot claim to be doing justice for her or her family. Hall’s two daughters, Terrlyn and Toni Hall (pictured, far left and far right) and her brother Helvetius Hall (pictured, middle), oppose James’ execution and say Faith would oppose it, too.

“I don’t want it to go forward. We’re not God. The Governor is not God,” Terryln Hall told CBS 42 reporter Lee Hedgepeth. “Taking his life is not going to bring Faith back,” Helvetius Hall said. “It ain’t going to make no closure for us.” 

Toni Hall agreed. “We shouldn’t be playing God. An eye for an eye has never been a good outlook for life,” she said.

The Halls believe their views should hold weight in the state’s decision-making process and say. Governor Kay Ivey should commute James’ sentence. They have asked prosecutors not to move forward with the execution. Faith would not have wanted James to be executed, they said. “She would’ve forgiven him,” Helvetius said.

As the execution date approaches, the Halls feel retraumatized and powerless. 

“It’s really bothering me,” Toni said. “To know that someone is going to lose their life.”

James was sentenced to death in 1996 for the 1994 murder of Faith Hall, whom he had dated. At the time of her murder, Toni and Terryln were just 3 and 6 years old, respectively. “It was always good times with our mama,” Terryln said. 

“She was my backbone,” Helvetius said. “She would fix whatever problem I had. I truly miss her. … We really didn’t have nothing growing up, but we had each other. Whatever the situation, she was able to talk with sense. I was a hothead, but she would tell me how to handle things. I miss that.”

Faith Hall’s murder has had lasting impact — Toni called them “trickle-down effects” — on each of their lives. She is more guarded in intimate relationships and with who she lets around her children. Each of the family members have made the emotional journey from hatred to forgiveness. “For years, I hated him,” Terryln said. “But as I got older and started living my life and raising my own kids, I had to find it in my heart to forgive this man.”

Hedgepeth reports that the Halls plan to travel to the prison on July 28, 2022 to hear James’ last words and they intend to leave the witness room before the execution takes place. They want James to know that, while his actions hurt them badly, they do not hate him and wish he was not being executed.

“We’re praying for his family,” Helvetius said.

The Eleventh Circuit unanimously upheld that order, but, without explanation and over a strong dissent, the Supreme Court granted the State’s application to allow the execution by lethal injection to go forward.

Joe James was convicted and sentenced to death in 1996 after the State relied on illegal hearsay evidence. The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals reversed his conviction in 1998.

After the appellate court ordered a new trial, the State agreed that a life-without-parole sentence would be appropriate for Mr. James if he pleaded guilty to capital murder.

But his appointed trial lawyers took the case to trial. Following a retrial where counsel presented no mitigating evidence to the jury, Mr. James was convicted and sentenced to death.

South Dakota Congressman Demands Answers from Bill Gates over Farmland Purchases

From [HERE] Rep. Dusty Johnson, a Republican, pointed to issues with Gates' purchase of massive swaths of farmland across 19 states. 

Bill Gates, who is America's largest individual owner of farmland, is now facing scrutiny for his ownership of nearly 270,000 acres of farmland in 19 states. 

One South Dakota congressman has taken notice of Gates' unmitigated buyout of agricultural land and seeks to bring the Microsoft founder and philanthropist before a committee to explain his vast ownership of farmland. Rep. Dusty Johnson, in a letter to House Agriculture Committee chairman David Scott, wrote: 

"It has become clear in recent reports that Mr. Gates is the largest private farmland owner in America — he now owns nearly 270,000 acres of farmland across 19 states. Comparatively, the average farm size in 2021 was 445 acres, according to the United States Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service. I believe that Mr. Gates' holdings across much of our nation is a significant portion that the Committee should not ignore. 

"Bill Gates is the largest owner of U.S. farmland. I'm curious what's planned for this incredibly productive ag land given that he believes developed countries like America 'shouldn't eat any red meat.' How are his land purchases related to those aspirations?"

As Bill Gates continues to acquire land used for growing food crops, the billionaire has gone on a crusade to stop Americans from eating meat and is a vocal proponent of alternative meat substances. 

In addition to the close to 270,000 acres of land that he owns, the North Dakota government has granted him the legal authority to purchase an additional 2,100 acres of farmland. 

The move has locals livid, with many complaining that they feel they are being exploited by wealthy landowners like Gates who buy massive swathes of land while refusing to share the state's conservative values. 

As detailed by the Daily Mail in early July, Gates is circumventing a 1932 anti-corporate farm ownership law by pledging to lease the land to farmers after he completes the purchase. The publication reported: 

"North Dakota's Agriculture Commissioner, Republican Doug Goehring, previously said that many people feel they are being exploited by the ultra-rich who buy land but do not necessarily share the state's values." 

Goehring, in an interview with a local news station said: 

"I've gotten a big earful on this from clear across the state, it's not even from that neighborhood. Those people are upset, but there are others that are just livid about this."

DOJ Begins Racial Environmental Justice Probe to Determine whether Houston City Government has Discriminated against Blacks and Latinos by Failing to Enforce Illegal Dumping Restrictions

From [HERE] The US Justice Department (DOJ) announced the opening of an investigation Friday to determine whether the City of Houston, Texas has discriminated against minorities in a predominantly Black and Latino area by failing to enforce illegal dumping restrictions.

According to a complaint by Lone Star Legal Aid, the City has not adequately responded to calls from residents in a northeast Houston community that “household furniture, mattresses, tires, medical waste, trash, dead bodies, and vandalized ATM machines” have been illegally dumped in their community. According to the complaint, the City has not properly enforced municipal codes and permit restrictions for decades.

The investigation will look into the city’s responses to reports of illegal dumping and determine whether the city has been complying with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The DOJ plans to review records of the 311 Houston Service Helpline system to determine if there are racial disparities in response times to different communities, as well as conduct interviews with residents, officials, and other stakeholders. The investigation will be jointly conducted by the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ and the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Texas.

US Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke stated of the investigation:

Illegal dumping is a long-standing environmental justice issue [that] often disproportionately burdens Black and Latino communities…Illegal dumpsites not only attract rodents, mosquito and other vermin that pose health risks, but they can also contaminate surface water and impact proper drainage, making areas more susceptible to flooding. Illegal dumpsites denies residents the ability to enjoy their communities and strips vulnerable communities of the ability to lead their lives with full dignity and respect.

In response to the probe, Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner stated that “the City of Houston was stunned and disappointed” to learn about the investigation and that it is a “slap in the face to the City and the many people who diligently work to address illegal dumping daily and prevent environmental injustice.”

This investigation follows a trend of prioritization of environmental justice and civil rights. In May, the DOJ created the Office of Environmental Justice and issued a memorandum initiating a comprehensive environmental justice enforcement strategy to address discriminatory public health and environmental impacts to poor and minority communities.

NYU School of Law Warns Digital ID "Paving a Digital Road to Hell"

From [HERE] New York University's Center for Human Rights and Global Justice has issued a chilling warning about the potential dangers to human rights posed by the push for digital identity.

In mid-June, the Center for Human Rights and Global Justice, a "hub for human rights study" at New York University (NYU) School of Law, issued a 100-page report detailing the growing dangers of a reliance on digital identity around the world. The report, titled Paving a Digital Road to Hell?, examines the role of the world bank and other international networks which have been promoting the use if digital ID in recent years.

The report notes that the World Bank has been "energetically promoting biometric and other digital ID systems that are increasingly linked to large-scale human rights violations, especially in the Global South". The researchers warn that digital identity schemes "promoted in the name of development and inclusion, might be achieving neither". Despite ostensible good intentions on the part of some promoting these systems, they "may well be paving a digital road to hell." 

The press release for the report notes (emphasis added): 

"Governments around the world have been investing heavily in digital identification systems, often with biometric components (digital ID). The rapid proliferation of such systems is driven by a new development consensus, packaged and promoted by key global actors like the World Bank, but also by governments, foundations, vendors and consulting firms."

The report states that many of the digital identity schemes are taking inspiration from the Aadhaar system in India. This specific digital ID model has prioritized digital ID as an "economic identity", according to the report. "The goal of such systems is primarily to establish 'uniqueness' of individuals, commonly with the help of biometric technologies," the release states. This in turn allows for bringing in impoverished people from the "informal" or "counter-economy" to the formal economy. This also has the effect of "unlocking" their behavioral data that can then be used by governments and other parties. 

The report also notes that the Executive Chairman of the influential ID4Africa, a platform where African governments and major companies in the digital ID market meet, noted at the 2022 Annual Meeting in June that digital ID is no longer about identity alone but, 

"enables and interacts with authentication platforms, payments systems, digital signatures, data sharing, KYC systems, consent management and sectoral delivery platforms."

The report details how the promoters of the new digital/economic identity model often evade "difficult questions" about the legal status and rights of those being registered. Despite promises of inclusion and flourishing digital economies, digital ID systems have "consistently failed to deliver on these promises in real world situations, especially for the most marginalized"The Aadhaar system itself has been criticized for severe and large-scale human rights violations. 

In fact, the report finds that the evidence indicates it is the small group of companies and governments who stand to benefit most from these systems.

"After all, where digital ID systems have tended to excel is in generating lucrative contracts for biometrics companies and enhancing the surveillance and migration-control capabilities of governments."

Who is Driving the Push to Digital Identity? 

The authors of the report also call for a "more clearly developed notion of 'who' are the most relevant actors driving this agenda and 'what' are the key concepts that should be contested and reimagined". They say that much can be learned by focusing on the actions of the World Bank Group, and, "more specifically its ID4D Initiative, as a central node in a more extensive global network of digital ID promotion." 

In 2014, the World Bank launched the Identification for Development (ID4D) program with the aim of solving the problem of a lack of identity for much of the so-called "developing world". The World Bank is funding digital biometric ID programs in Mexico, pushing digital ID in poorer countries with the ostensible goal of providing legal identity to the 1.1 billion people who do not currently have one. 

This program was started with a "catalytic investment" from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Omidyar Network, as well as various governments. The report notes: 

"We have noted that the World Bank and its ID4D Initiative do not stand alone in pursuing the digital ID agenda. They exist within a global network of organizations and individuals. This includes donor governments like the United Kingdom, the United States and France; global foundations such as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and Omidyar Network; tech-savvy governments such as in India and Estonia; the UN system, including the members of the UN-Legal Identity Agenda Task Force; regional development banks, including the Asian Development Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank; private biometrics corporations like Idemia, Thales, and Gemalto; card companies such as MasterCard; new networks such as the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) and ID4Africa; and numerous other global organizations"

Many of the governments and companies listed above are also partners with the World Economic Forum, the proponents of "The Great Reset". The Gates Foundation is likely more well known to regular readers, but the Omidyar Network should also raise red flags. The Omidyar Network was set up by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar and Pam Omidyar.

Interestingly, the NYU report states that proponents of this digital identity future have "cloaked this new paradigm in the language of human rights and inclusion, arguing that such systems will help to achieve multiple Sustainable Development Goals"


Comment: And there it is again: Totalitarianism sold and branded under the woke and twisted banner version of 'human rights,' 'inclusion,' and 'Sustainable Development'. 


As I reported in my previous investigation, Exposing the "Digital ID is a Human Right" Scam, the push towards a digital identity has its roots in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the 2030 Agenda. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a collection of 17 interlinked objectives adopted by the United Nations in 2015 with the ostensible goal of ending poverty, protecting the planet, and spreading peace and prosperity to all people by 2030. 

The SDGs were part of a larger resolution known as the 2030 Agenda, or Agenda 2030, with the stated purpose of fighting climate change. While the United Nations SDGs and Agenda 2030 are often touted as a tool for establishing healthy multilateral relationships between nations, in truth, they are based in a deeper agenda to monitor, control, and direct all life on the planet. 

The UN and the World Economic Forum have regularly promoted the idea of a digital identity as a necessity for life in the 2020's. 

It's clear that this effort to strong-arm the world into accepting digital identity programs is part of a larger push towards biometrics, a track and trace society, and, eventually, tools like Central Bank Digital Currencies. 

While the NYU report is the latest to warn about the dangers of the quickly approaching digital world, this is not the first warning. In April 2021, the Center for Human Rights and Global Justice published a skeptical piece titled "Everyone Counts! Ensuring that the human rights of all are respected in digital ID systems." This article looked at some of the ways marginalized populations are further marginalized by digital systems. They warn of the "need for the human rights movement to engage in discussions about digital transformation so that fundamental rights are not lost in the rush to build a 'modern, digital state'." 

In January 2020 — prior to the COVID-19 crisis and the increase in biometrics and vaccine passports — forty organizations signed a letter calling on an independent government watchdog to recommend a ban on U.S. government use of facial recognition technology.The organizations challenged the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB) to "examine the more significant public concerns about the use of facial recognition in public spaces." They also called on the board to address concerns that facial recognition software can be used by "authoritarian governments to control minority populations and limit dissent" and that this "could spread quickly to democratic societies.

What is clear at this pressing moment is that it will take a combination of the people standing up and pushing back against these systems, and academics and think tanks like the Center for Human Rights and Global Justice, to force a much needed debate about these technologies. The CHRGJ outlines the need for an "equally global effort by the entire human rights ecosystem" to counter the influence of the global network of digital identity advocates. 

The Paving a Digital Road to Hell? report calls on each of us to ask these important questions to local, state, national, and international lawmakers: 

"What can we in the human rights ecosystem meaningfully do, individually and collectively, to ensure that digital ID systems enhance, rather than jeopardize, the enjoyment of human rights?" 

"Is this even possible through digital ID systems?"

If we do not have this crucial conversation we may miss an opportunity to prevent further violations of human rights, and loss of civil liberties.

“You’re Not From Around Here, You Were Raised in a White Neighborhood and You’re Scared of Black People.” Yonkers Cops Surveilling, Confronting Blacks, Slam-Down a Fleeing Black Woman. Demanded ID

According to FUNKTIONARY:

Cop – (from the Egyptian Conscience on Duty)—which the British changed to Constable on Patrol—to the Americanized version “Cop,” which originally was connected to the color blue (a symbol of conscience). This is why all police (policy) officers of a city no matter where in the world—wear blue, which is tied into the Blue Lodge of Freemasonry and the Fraternal Order of Police (F.O.P.), i.e., their primary allegiance is to the oath of the Order, secondly to the merchants, thirdly to the overseers, and finally you (after you have been victimized because they cannot prevent it). 2) Blue Assassins—Choreographers Of Pain. How many crooked cops must be on a force before it is a criminal force. “The police are a self-selecting group of extremely dangerous psychopaths who unite (and lie) against the public and care little for ‘law’ or other’s rights.” ~ Paul Roasberry. These modern uniformed criminals have the irrational desire to confront anyone for any reason (including none whatsoever in the form of a whim) which makes them more dangerous than the common thugs. Read “Rise of the Warrior Cop: The Militarization of America’s Police Force” by Radly Balko.

cop-artist – a man or woman dressed in a blue uniform pretending to act on behalf of a cartoon, i.e. a city, municipality, State or any other fiction created by con-artists. “An experienced trial attorney will tell you that it is very difficult to get a judge to believe a cop is lying. The ‘inaccurate statement(s)’ almost have to be totally outrageous before most judges will ‘go there.’ A better strategy, especially if the defendant is Black, is to get the judge to believe the cop is incompetent in some way or just mistaken. Reality or anything too real (such as racism) in court is simply unbelievable to judges in the fake world created in court. Many racist cops are sophisticated, masterful liars who are taught how to testify and create persuasive, detailed police reports. Mixing actual facts with nonsense sounds and looks real in court. White prosecutors and the white media are also eager and programmed to believe anything foul cops say about Blacks. In a case involving a ‘missing’ weapon and no video tape, the evidence would simply consist of a credibility contest between a sworn white police officer and a Black teenager[s]. Prediction: a white jury or judge will believe that a gun existed—though not a single detail about the gun will be provided. Why would a cop make it up? Because they will believe it.” ~The Brownwatch. Cops are official costumed criminals and trigger-happy sanctioned killers. Is a cop’s presence counterproductive in the areas of preventing death or injury? City governments throughout the country have policies (if not custom and practice— yeah, they get a lot of shooting practice alright) to use deadly force regardless if there is an actual threat. This is what is known as the “force continuum” or the art of justifying sanctioned murder. It buttresses the artifice and culture of culpable cop criminality and general immunity from any consequences. You have a right to remain silent—after silenced for good.

Family Releases Videos of a Chicago Cop Shooting 13 yr Old Black Boy w/His Hands Up. Accused Cop Claims His Bodycam was Off at the Time of Shooting, Massa' Media Conceals the Public Servant's Identity

From [HERE] Contrary to Dependent Media reports surveillance video, not bodycam video, appears to show a 13 year old Black boy raising his hands in the air moments before a white police officer shot him at a gas station. The shooting on May 18 on the city’s West Side left the boy paralyzed.

The family released the videos after it was given to them by the Civilian Office of Police Accountability after they made a FOIA request for it. The incident occurred on May 18, 2022, near 800 N. Cicero Ave.

The body camera footage from the officer who fired the shots does not begin until after the shooting occurred. That officer's attorney has acknowledged he didn't have his camera turned on until after the shooting. The attorney said it wasn't intentional, calling it a "high stress situation." [how self-serving . . the accused deletes or destroys the evidence?]

In body camera footage from other officers involved in the chase, you can see officers chasing the 13-year-old at the intersection of Chicago and Cicero avenues, running at a full sprint toward the gas pumps at a Marathon gas station, followed closely by the sound of multiple gunshots. 

In the span of less than a second, it appears the teen starts to turn, with his arms slightly raised, before he collapses to the ground. 

You can hear an officer saying "cell phone, it's a f***ing cell phone. Secure the area."

The mother of the 13-year-old boy is suing the city, claiming her son was unarmed and had raised his hands to surrender when he was shot. 

The suit claims the boy was unarmed and obeying commands, and yet was still shot in the back. 

"He heard a command to put his hands up. The young boy put his hands up. And without cause or provocation, he was shot in the back by the officer," Stroth said. "And that young man sustained serious life changing injuries and as of this point, he is paralyzed from the waist down."  

The mother is also demanding that video of the incident be released to the public.

In the video CPD officers did not render immediate aide to AG, but instead callously dragged him across the pavement and then turned their attention to an uninjured officer who crashed into a sign at the gas station while arriving on scene.

The teen, who survived the incident, sustained a major spinal injury and is in danger of never walking again, according to the family. According to the lawsuit “he has been permanently and catastrophically injured” and “at this point doesn’t have movement of his legs”.

The teen, who was being chased by almost a dozen officers seen in the video, did not have any charges against him and no weapon was fired by him or found on him. The chase began after he was spotted in a car the police were trying to stop and he started running.

According to the complaint: the facts are as follows:

On the evening of May 18, 2022, A.G. was riding as a passenger in a Honda Accord. CPD was in pursuit of the car. As the car was driving west on Rice Street towards Cicero Avenue, A.G. got out of the car and ran. As A.G. was running south on Cicero Avenue through the lot of a Marathon gas station, there were several CPD officers on foot chasing him from behind. There were also several police vehicles nearby, in addition to a CPD helicopter overhead.

According to witness accounts, while A.G. was running he was told by one or more of the pursuing CPD officers to put his hands up. A.G. did as he was directed; he put his hands up with the intent of surrendering to the police.

At or about the same time, John Doe Officer, who was running behind A.G. with his gun unholstered, shot A.G. without cause or justification, causing A.G. to sustain catastrophic and permanent injuries.

A.G. immediately collapsed in the lot of the Marathon gas station. CPD officers did not render immediate aide to A.G., but instead callously dragged him across the pavement and then turned their attention to an uninjured officer who crashed into a sign at the gas station while arriving on scene.

A.G. did not have a weapon or do anything to make John Doe Officer believe that he was armed or dangerous. A.G. did not pose an imminent threat of death or great bodily harm to John Doe Officer (who was running behind him) or to anyone.

As a result of the unjustified shooting by John Doe Officer, A.G. has (so far) been diagnosed with the following injuries:

  1. gunshot wound;

  2. complete lesion at T7-T10 level of thoracic spinal cord;

  3. T10 spinal cord injury;

  4. fracture of lamina of thoracic vertebrae;

  5. fracture of transverse process of thoracic vertebrae;

  6. fracture of spinous process of thoracic vertebrae;

  7. retained magnetic metal foreign body;

  8. multiplefractures of ribs;

  9. hemothorax (collection of blood between the chest and lungs);

  10. acute blood loss anemia;

  11. bilateral pulmonary contusion;

  12. esophageal injury; and

  13. impaired mobility and ADLs. [MORE]

Lawsuit Filed After Oklahoma Police Murdered Quadry Sanders. Cops Shot Black Man 12X While His Hands Were Up and After He Fell to the Ground. Was Holding a Baseball Cap, Cops Charged w/Manslaughter

From [HERE] and [HERE] Even after a cop shot Quadry Sanders four times as he was raising his arms in surrender, two officers continued to shoot him after he was on the ground still trying to raise his hands to comply with their orders.

“Hands! Hands! Hands!” Lawton police officer Robert Hinkle yelled, according to the body camera footage released Friday.

But when a wounded Sanders tried to raise his hands, Hinkle shot him an additional seven times, accusing him of “reaching.”

His partner, Lawton police officer Nathan Ronan, fired four times. The video captured him admitting to never seeing a gun in Sanders’ hands before a sergeant tells him to shush.

“Quit reaching! Quit reaching!” Hinkle yelled after firing seven shots.

“I’m down,” Sanders cried out in pain.

Seconds later, they were dragging him on the ground away from the doorway where he had walked out of before he had been shot, leaving a trail of blood. The 29-year-old man was pronounced dead on the way to the hospital.

Now Sanders’ mother has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against two former officers and the city. Mina Woods, a Texas resident and mother of Quadry Malik Sanders, seeks a jury trial and more than $1 million, according to the lawsuit filed July 15 in federal court. 

Named in the lawsuit are former Lawton police officers Robert Hinkle, 30, and Nathan Ronan, 30, along with the city of Lawton. 

Hinkle, who also is Black, and Ronan face first-degree manslaughter charges in Comanche County District Court after the Dec. 5 shooting death of Sanders, who was 29. 

The incident took place on December 5, 2021 after police received a 911 call accusing Sanders of violating a protective order while waving a gun around.

However, no weapon was ever found at the scene and the only thing Sanders was holding was a baseball cap, according to the statement by district attorney’s office published by KSWO.

According to the Comanche County District Attorney’s office:

Officer Hinkle begins telling Mr. Sanders “hands, hands” as well as “down, down, down, down.” Mr. Sanders hands are clearly seen and the only item visible in his hands is a ball cap, which he transfers from his right hand to his left hand. As he is receiving these orders, Mr. Sanders quickly turns back towards the front door of the home.

Officers Hinkle and Ronan then walk closer to Mr. Sanders. As Hinkle approaches, Mr. Sanders can be seen raising both of his hands in the air, above his head. At that time, Officer Hinkle shoots his firearm four times at Mr. Sanders. Mr. Sanders falls to the ground and appears to have been shot, at which time Officer Hinkle once again orders “hands, hands, hands,” and to “quit reaching.” 

Mr. Sanders sits up from his back with his hands above his head at which time Officer Hinkle fires his firearm seven additional times. Simultaneously with these shots, Officer Ronan also fires his weapon at Mr. Sanders four times. Mr. Sanders is then secured by Officer Hinkle. On the way to Comanche County Memorial Hospital by ambulance, Quadry Sanders is pronounced dead. No weapon was located on Mr. Sanders’ body or in the area where he was shot.

An autopsy determined that Sanders was shot 12 times in the abdomen, groin, legs, arms and hand.

“It was just murder,” said attorney Lee Merritt who is representing the family of Sanders. “There was no justification.”

In January 2021, Hinkle shot and killed another man but was cleared by the district attorney’s office who said the man he killed, Zonterious Johnson, was wielding a gun, according to KSKO.

The two cops were fired in January after an internal affairs investigation. They remain free on a $250,000 bond, according to the Lawton Constitution. Their next court date is August 1.

On Jan. 7, Lawton City Manager Michael Cleghorn issued a statement that “upon careful consideration,” Hinkle and Ronan were fired from the police department. 

“The actions of these officers were not in conformance with the Lawton Police Department’s well-established training protocols, policies, practices, customs or procedures,” Cleghorn said in the statement.

In May, the city of Lawton released more than 23 minutes of the police body camera footage.

The autopsy report revealed Sanders was struck 12 times, including in the abdomen, groin area, legs, arm and hand.

In May, following a months-long investigation by the OSBI, Cabelka charged Hinkle and Ronan in the death of Sanders. Cabelka said in a statement the shooting of Sanders “was not justified.” Cabelka said no weapon was found on Sanders nor in the area where he was shot. 

Ronan and Hinkle were released on a $25,000 bond. They face a minimum of four years in state prison if convicted in the fatal shooting of Sanders. 

The civil lawsuit against the former Lawton police officers and the city claims Sanders did not pose a threat to police the night he was killed. 

“Mr. Sanders’ hands were visible and did not contain weapons when he exited the home,” the lawsuit says. “Mr. Sanders put hands up in a manner universally understood by police officers to be a sign of compliance.”

A Birmingham Cop Slammed a 69 Year Old Black Vietnam Veteran with a Mental Disability to a Hospital Floor which Broke His Neck, Damaged His Spine and Killed Him. Lawsuit Filed

From [HERE] The family of a Georgia man who died five months after he was slammed to the ground during a scuffle with a Birmingham police officer in 2020 has filed a wrongful death lawsuit in Alabama.

Carl Grant, a 69-year-old Vietnam veteran, died in Muscogee County, Ga. on July 24, 2020.

His death came after he suffered a spinal cord injury on February 3 while in the custody of Birmingham police.

The lawsuit was filed in Jefferson County this week by Birmingham attorneys Richard Rice, Johnathan Austin and Derrell Dowdell on behalf of William Jenkins, Grant’s brother, alleging excessive force.

The lawsuit states police failed to recognize, and respond accordingly, to the fact that Grant was in a mental health crisis, and cites what they say are systemic deficiencies in the police department’s use of force policy.

The defendants are Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin, city council members, Police Chief Scott Thurmond and Officer Vincent Larry. Police and city officials do not comment on pending litigation.

Grant lived in Conyers, Ga., and suffered from a wide range of health issues including dementia, high blood pressure, diabetes, PTSD and conditions brought on by exposure to Agent Orange.

He served nine years as a U.S. Marine which included service in Vietnam.

He was honorably discharged as a staff sergeant in 1979 and had received numerous service awards.

According to the lawsuit, Grant left his Georgia home to go to the grocery store. His attorneys said he was watching the Super Bowl with friends and family, and left at halftime to make the store run.

Instead, he somehow ended up in Birmingham where he was found by Officer Larry wandering, confused and disoriented.

Attorneys say police should have known Grant was in distress and in need of medical or mental health.

The attorneys claim Grant was “falsely imprisoned” on a misdemeanor charge and received an abrasion to his forehead and other injuries during the arrest.

He was taken by police to UAB Hospital’s emergency room, where he was treated for his injuries.

“His mental health disability was apparent to a lay person,’’ the lawsuit states.

Grant, attorneys said, was confused as to why he was at the hospital.

In the process of being discharged from the hospital, Grant asked to use the restroom. “For unknown reasons, he was physically accosted and manhandled by Larry,’’ the suit states.

At that point, the suit states, Grant was picked up by police and slammed to the floor. “Upon impact with the floor, Grant’s body immediately went limp.”

Grant was then rolled over onto his stomach and handcuffed. The encounter was captured on surveillance video.

“Physicians began to triage Grant and concluded that Grant was unable to move any of his limbs, did not respond to pain sensations in his extremities, and had suffered a broken neck,’’ the suit states.

Grant underwent surgery for spinal cord injuries during which several vertebrae were repaired, removed or fused together.

Grant spent several months at UAB and VA hospitals before eventually returning home to Georgia, where he ultimately died under hospice care.

Efforts to obtain the official cause and manner of death were unsuccessful.

“Grant was never physically, emotionally or mentally the same man as he was who walked into the UAB ER,’’ the lawsuit states. “He walked into the hospital and was beaten, paralyzed and left dead.”

According to the lawsuit, a Birmingham Police Department internal review determined the officer’s use of force was proper and acceptable, “even when the officer violated policy and/or used excessive, unconstitutional and/or unskillful force.”

“The city failed to provide any meaningful oversight to policing, police officers or law enforcement while simultaneously allocating millions of dollars to fund policing in 2020,’’ the suit states.

“Currently (the city) provides no significant institutional assistance for those who may be experiencing a mental health emergency other than dispatching police officers,’’ according to the suit. “Community Service Officers advertised as social works that can respond to mental health emergencies constitute less than 1 percent of police employed by the city.”

West Hartford Settles Suit After White Police Assaulted a 12 yr old Black Boy at a School for Deaf Kids. Stupid Cop Tased Him b/c He Didn't Respond to Commands While His Eyes Were Closed

From [HERE] The West Hartford Town Council last week settled a nearly decade-old legal dispute involving a 12-year-old deaf boy who was shot with a stun gun by a town police officer on the campus of the American School for the Deaf in 2013.

The council on July 14 unanimously voted to approve settling a lawsuit filed by Amato Muschette, a former student at the American School for the Deaf, for $250,000.

Muschette alleged that officer Paul Gionfriddo, who has since retired, used excessive force when he used a stun gun on Muschette, who is deaf and has attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, according to court papers.

Gionfriddo and another officer responded to a call to the American School for the Deaf in April 2013 after school officials said Muschette, who was 12, assaulted a school employee after he was denied a request for food.

Muschette became upset and fled to a nearby construction site on campus where he allegedly threatened school employees and police with rocks and a stick, according to court papers.

The suit claimed that when Gionfriddo arrived, he ordered Muschette to drop a large rock he was holding. Muschette, the suit said, had his eyes closed and did not hear or understand Gionfriddo’s commands.

Police in their report disputed that claim, saying school staff translated police orders to Muschette, who ignored the warnings. Less than 2 minutes after arriving on scene, Gionfriddo tasered Muschette in the back, the suit said.

After police could not get Muschette handcuffed, Gionfriddo sent a second shock through the already-deployed wires that were still connected to Muschette.

Muschette, through his lawyers Eric Baum and Andrew Rozynski, filed a lawsuit in federal court alleging, among other things, Gionfriddo used excessive force in using a stun gun.

The lawsuit was ultimately dismissed against Gionfriddo in 2018 on appeal by the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which said Gionfriddo had a reasonable basis to believe Muschette posed a threat to himself or other staff members.

Muschette, however, also filed a lawsuit in 2020 against the town and Gionfriddo in state court alleging assault and battery. The Town Council voted to settle that action, without comment, on July 14 after a brief explanation by West Hartford corporation counsel Dallas Dodge.

In an email, Dodge said that the town would pay $72,000 and the he town’s insurer would pay the remaining $178,000 of the settlement amount.

“The Town of West Hartford takes all allegations of excessive force very seriously,” Dodge said in a statement. “This is a case that was filed almost a decade ago, dismissed in federal court and subsequently refiled in state court. The settlement is not an admission of fault or liability by the town or the defendant police officer. After defense costs, the majority of the settlement will be paid by the town’s excess insurance carrier. Out of respect for the agreement to settle, we will have no further comment.”

Efforts to reach Muschette’s attorney for comment were not successful.
