Fwd: This is our wake-up call!

Dear Citizens ,   We are witnessing a profound and alarming shift in global governance—a shift that threatens the very foundation of freedom and democracy. Today's authoritarianism knows no boundaries, and its reach is expanding at an unprecedented pace.   Recently, London's Metropolitan Police Chief declared an intention to pursue international extradition requests against anyone who violates British social media censorship rules—even targeting American citizens.   Such actions are not isolated incidents; they are part of a broader agenda by elites who seek to control what we can read, see, and hear.   They justify this censorship by labeling dissenting voices as "misinformation," "hate speech," "far-right," or "extremist." These labels are wielded as weapons to silence opposition and stifle free expression.   Throughout history, totalitarian regimes have begun their reigns of terror with censorship. The suppression of free speech has often been the precursor to greater atrocities. It starts with silencing dissent, manipulating information, and instilling fear in those who dared to speak the truth.   This pattern is disturbingly familiar, and we must recognize it for what it is: a prelude to oppression.   We Must Not Yield   During the COVID-19 lockdowns, MI-6 labeled health freedom activists, including myself, as potential "terrorists." Yet, it is the authorities who employ fear as a tool of control, perpetuating narratives of pandemics, economic collapse, and endless wars to maintain their grip on power.   These tactics are designed to frighten us into compliance, but we must not yield.   This is a wake-up call for America and the world. We must reclaim our right to free speech and resist the creeping tide of authoritarianism. If not in America, the paragon of freedom, then where?   We owe it to ourselves, to future generations, and to the countless voices silenced by oppressive regimes throughout history. That's why we're asking for your urgent support right now.   God Bless, RFKjr

polyfluoroalkyl chemicals (PFAS) are putting our lives at risk



polyfluoroalkyl chemicals (PFAS) or "forever chemicals," and how they are putting our lives and the lives of future generations at risk

https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2024/07/27/investigating-the-forever-chemicals-scandal.aspx

Minnesota Will Ban PFAS Starting This Year

Amara Strande passed away on April 21, 2023, just two days shy of her 21st birthday. However, through her testimonies, she has helped set off a plan that will put an end to PFAS and save the lives of future generations.

As Minnesota continues to work out how to deal with PFAS, one recent development they put into place is the "Amara Law" — basically, this legislation will require PFAS-containing products to be labeled and will ban nonessential use of these chemicals starting in 2024.

"All Amara was asking for in testifying at the Capitol was for companies who are using these chemicals, do the right thing and take responsibility for their use. Her life doesn't seem over … because she put so much in motion, and those things are still in motion," her parents said.

In 2018, Bilott also filed a class action lawsuit against several producers of PFAS. It's potentially bigger, as it could involve the entire U.S. population. He says:

"[T]he [chemical] companies immediately sought appeal, saying this was too big. Nobody had ever had a class action this large, involving millions and millions of people.

And our argument was, 'Nobody else has contaminated the entire United States and has put chemicals into the blood of everyone in the country.' This case is only this big because the harm is this big."

How to Reduce Your Exposure to PFAS

As part of her research, Kary had her blood levels tested for PFAS, and she found that despite being cautious of these chemicals and living in an area with low PFAS levels in the water, her results still came back with "higher than average levels."

In today's modern world, it is truly difficult to avoid these chemicals entirely. This is why experts like Bilott are calling for a ban on the entire class of chemicals, rather than one at a time. The good news is, you can make a conscious effort to avoid products with high levels of PFAS, which will minimize your exposure.

I recommend avoiding the products listed below — you can find more useful tips in the Environmental Working Group's (EWG) "Guide to Avoiding PFAS Chemicals."8

Pretreated or stain-repellent treatments — Opt out of these treatments on clothing, furniture and carpeting. Clothing advertised as "breathable" is typically treated with polytetrafluoroethylene, a synthetic fluoropolymer commonly known as Teflon.

Products treated with flame retardant chemicals — This includes furniture, carpet, mattresses and baby items. Instead, opt for naturally less flammable materials such as leather, wool and cotton.

Fast food and carry-out foods —The containers are typically treated with PFAS.

Microwave popcorn — PFAS may be present in the inner coating of the bag and may migrate to the oil from the packaging during heating. Instead, use "old-fashioned" stovetop non-GMO popcorn.

Nonstick cookware and other treated kitchen utensils — Healthier options include ceramic and enameled cast iron cookware, both of which are durable, easy to clean and completely inert, which means they won't release any harmful chemicals into your home.

Personal care products containing PTFE, "fluoro" or "perfluoro" ingredients such as Oral B Glide floss — The EWG Skin Deep database is an excellent source to search for healthier personal care options.9

Progesterone

Lastly, progesterone will minimize endocrine disrupting chemicals' ability to activate your estrogen receptors, thus helping to reduce their impact on your biology. It's not a magic bullet though. You get the most benefit by implementing a Bioenergetic diet approach that allows you to effectively burn glucose as your primary fuel without backing up electrons in your mitochondria that reduces your energy production.

My new book, "Cellular Health: The Unified Theory of All Disease for Ultimate Longevity and Joy" comes out very soon and covers this process in great detail.

Once you have dialed in your diet, an effective strategy that can help counteract estrogen excess is to take transmucosal progesterone (i.e., applied to your gums, not oral or transdermal), which is a natural estrogen antagonist. Progesterone is one of only four hormones I believe many adults can benefit from. (The other three are thyroid hormone T3, DHEA and pregnenolone.)

I do not recommend transdermal progesterone, as your skin expresses high levels of 5-alpha reductase enzyme, which causes a significant portion of the progesterone you're taking to be irreversibly converted primarily into allopregnanolone and cannot be converted back into progesterone.

Ideal Way to Administer Progesterone

Please note that when progesterone is used transmucosally on your gums as I advise, the FDA believes that somehow converts it into a drug and prohibits any company from advising that on its label. This is why companies like Health Natura promotes their progesterone products as "topical."

However, please understand that it is perfectly legal for any physician to recommend an off-label indication for a drug to their patient. In this case progesterone is a natural hormone and not a drug and is very safe even in high doses. This is unlike synthetic progesterone called progestins that are used by drug companies, but frequently, and incorrectly, referred.

Dr. Ray Peat has done the seminal work in progesterone and probably was the world's greatest expert on progesterone. He wrote his Ph.D. on estrogen in 1982 and spent most of his professional career documenting the need to counteract the dangers of excess estrogen with low LA diets and transmucosal progesterone supplementation.

He determined that most solvents do not dissolve progesterone well and discovered that vitamin E is the best solvent to optimally provide progesterone in your tissue. Vitamin E also protects you against damage from LA. You just need to be very careful about which vitamin E you use as most supplemental vitamin E on the market is worse than worthless and will cause you harm not benefit.

It is imperative to avoid using any synthetic vitamin E (alpha tocopherol acetate — the acetate indicates that it's synthetic). Natural vitamin E will be labeled "d alpha tocopherol." This is the pure D isomer, which is what your body can use. There are also other vitamin E isomers, and you want the complete spectrum of tocopherols and tocotrienols, specifically the beta, gamma, and delta types, in the effective D isomer.

There are also other vitamin E isomers, and you want the complete spectrum of tocopherols and tocotrienols, specifically the beta, gamma, and delta types, in the effective D isomer. As an example of an ideal vitamin E you can look at the label on our vitamin E in our store. You can use any brand that has a similar label.

You can purchase pharmaceutical grade bioidentical progesterone as Progesterone Powder, Bioidentical Micronized Powder, 10 Grams for about $40 on many online stores like Amazon. That is nearly a year's supply, depending on the dose you choose.

You'll need to purchase some small stainless steel measuring spoons as you will need a 1/64 tsp which is 25 mg and a 1/32 tsp which is 50 mg. A normal dose is typically 25 to 50 mg and is taken 30 minutes before bed, as it has an anti-cortisol function and will increase GABA levels for a good night's sleep.

Unfortunately, this vendor frequently runs out of product, and if that's the case, then you can use Simply Progesterone by Health Natura. It's premixed with vitamin E and MCT oil. Again, while Health Natura states that its product is for "topical use only," I recommend applying it transmucosally, by rubbing it on your gums.

If you are a menstruating woman, you should take the progesterone during the luteal phase or the last half of your cycle, which can be determined by starting 10 days after the first day of your period and stopping the progesterone when your period starts.

If you are a male or non-menstruating woman you can take the progesterone every day for four to six months and then cycle off for one week. The best time of day to take progesterone is 30 minutes before bed as it has an anti-cortisol function and will increase GABA levels for a good night's sleep.

This is what I have personally doing for over a year with very good results. I am a physician so do not have any problems doing this. If you aren't a physician you should consult one before using this therapy, as transmucosal progesterone therapy requires a doctor's prescription.

Fwd: The Keystone Cops and Clusterfuck Investigation

I usually trim these emails because it's just too much bullshit. This is insane and I anticipate it getting worse and worse and worse.

It's a country full of TV sheep. I think everything is real when it's really all fake.

Subject: The Keystone Cops and Clusterfuck Investigation

The Keystone Cops and Clusterfuck Investigation Who's on First? Welcome to The Great Enshittening! Robert W Malone MD, MS Jul 18   READ IN APP   After the complete and abject failure of the Secret Service in stopping the attempted assassination of our next President of the United States, one would expect that there would be an investigation, maybe even more than one. But watching the news over the last few days has made it painfully clear that the investigations and the investigations of the investigators are to be never-ending. And despite assurances to the contrary, no one organization seems to be leading the way. Furthermore, whatever happened is being swept up into some classified dark hole, never to see the light of day. The headlines from the past couple of days speak volumes: The DHS leads the way: Looks like the DHS Inspector General is investigating the Secret Service over their failure. Right? Well, that is weird, given that the United States Secret Service (USSS) is a federal law enforcement agency that operates under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). They are one and the same. Essentially, that means that the same agency that caused this huge security failure will be investigating themselves. However, it isn't just the DHS that is investigating the security failures of the Secret Service. But then, maybe the FBI is leading the investigation? Apparently, the FBI has already come up with a reason for not investigating. And Congressman Tim Burchett has already called bullshit on their excuse. No… Wait! Should the Biden administration investigate itself? The Biden administration has also launched an investigation. Talk about a self-licking ice cream cone! The House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle and has also launched an investigation. House Speaker Mike Johnson has announced he also is setting up a task force to investigate the failed response by the Secret Service Then we have Secret Service Director Cheatle explaining how having secret service agents on that low sloping roof could officers in danger. Having them fall off, as a police officer did to avoide getting shot at by Crooks - well that just wouldn't be right. Butler County Sheriff Michael Slupe told Reuters the gunman, later identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, saw the officer and pointed his rifle at him before the officer, holding to the roof's edge, dropped down to safety. A few things come to mind with this. The truth is a local police officer had been on the roof already and when threatened by the shooter, chose to fall off. So, the slope and height of the roof just wasn't a cause for great concern by the local police force. Then there is whole DEI/ESG notion coming from the Secret Service Director that we are all equal and interchangeable. That President Trump's life is no more expendable or important than an agent's. In my way of thinking, this goes against every principle of an elite security force. In all this madness, what is clear is that there is no grand plan to all of this. It is all just more Keystone Cops. So many, many questions… What is also clear is that the leaks and comments now being generated by the Federal government about the assassin are being produced to push a narrative. Such as the only photo of the shooter being shown by MSM is one where it looks like Crooks is posing for his junior high yearbook. Hard to believe that the MSM couldn't find a more recent photo… Then, there is this comment coming from the FBI. A federal law enforcement bulletin obtained by CBS News identified the gunman as "an apparent lone attacker." The FBI is investigating whether he was a politically motivated homegrown domestic violent extremist. Do you feel those words oozing into your head yet? Moving on. According to the FBI, Crooks had no identification, and the AP has written that Crooks had no criminal record. And yet… After being killed at the scene, Crooks didn't have any identification on his body, so agents had to "run his DNA and get biometric confirmation," Kevin Rojek, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Pittsburgh field office, said at a press conference Saturday night before the gunman was named. Why and how does the government have access to the DNA and biometric data of someone who isn't a criminal? How were was the FBI able to analyze his DNA to discover his identity within an hour plus, after the shooting? What database was used? Has the government just de facto admitted that they have DNA and biometric data on most of us? Since that initial 24-36 hours, the government has essentially shut down information about the shooter, the investigation, and information surrounding the event. Information is now being swept into classified pigeon holes. This is not right. Even Joe Rogan is perplexed. He just can't quite bring himself to acknowledge the obvious deployment of #PsyWar by the blob and their mockingbird media on the American public. "The whole thing stinks of either incompetence or a design or we're in The Matrix...The whole thing is bananas. He's 20-years-old and then you find out he was in a BlackRock commercial?" (starts after 2h) And then there is the issue of whether or not Austin Private Wealth LLC (APW LLC) placed a large short put on Trump Media (President Trump's Truth Social stock ($DJT)) right before the assassination attempt. Per DiedSuddenly_ (on "X") : The firm that took the suspicious and enormous bet against President Trump's Truth Social stock ($DJT) ONE DAY before the assassination attempt is Austin Private Wealth LLC, majority held by George Soros' Vanguard and BlackRock. Coincidentally, BlackRock, a party that would have greatly profited from President Trump's death, included the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, in a 2022 promotional video. Alex Soros infamously shared an Atlantic Magazine cover image which featured a bullet hole in glass, followed by a picture of cash which added up to the number 47, a message some interpreted as a cryptic death threat against President Trump. Austin Private Wealth LLC is also connected to the late-President George H.W. Bush, who was a client, and through his son, President George W. Bush, who attended events and was involved in the company's charitable initiatives. Bush family close associate James A. Baker III, a former Secretary of State and H.W.'s White House Chief of Staff, has served as the firms Senior Policy Director since its inception in 2006. Being that this was the largest bet the firm has ever taken, it's fair to presume Baker had a role in making it. It's also important to remember the moment H.W. made a Sicilian style death motion toward a tv showing President Trump decimating his son Jeb during the 2016 Presidential primary. Lastly, Austin Private Wealth LLC, according to their website, directly supports the ACLU, ADL Austin, Shalom Austin, Jewish Community Center, Camp Young Judaea, Congregation Beth Israel, Austin Jewish Academy, and Hadassah. APW LLC claims that this was all just a technical reporting mistake. "The SEC filing which showed that Austin Private Wealth shorted a large number of shares of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp (DJT) was incorrect and we immediately amended it as soon as we learned of the error.  No client of APW holds, or has ever held, a put on DJT in the quantity initially reported. The correct holding amount was 12 contracts, or 1,200 shares — not 12 million shares, as was filed in error. In submitting the required report for the second quarter of 2024, a multiplier was applied by a third-party vendor that increased the number of the shares by a multiple of 10,000 for all options contracts (not just DJT). We did not catch the error before approving the filing.  We filed the report on July 12 to reflect our positions on June 28. We amended it on July 16.  We deeply regret this error and the concern it has caused, especially at such a fraught moment for our nation. We are committed to full transparency and maintaining the trust of our clients. As such, we are reviewing our internal procedures and our processes with the third-party vendor that assists with SEC filings to better understand how this happened and avoid similar issues moving forward. " https://austinprivatewealth.com/news-and-events Here is a new term to add to your vocabulary. "Enshittification". It's a real term coined by a writer at the Financial Times that describes the decay of services. Enshittification is a pattern where online services and products experience a decline in quality over time. It is observed as platforms transition through several stages: initially offering high-quality services to attract users, then shifting to favor business customers to increase profitability, and finally focusing on maximizing profits for shareholders at the expense of both users and business customers. This process results in a significant deterioration of the user experience. A variety of platforms have been described as examples of this, including Airbnb, Amazon, Facebook, Google Search, Twitter, Netflix, Bandcamp, YouTube, Reddit, Uber, and Unity. The neologism "enshittification" was coined by writer Cory Doctorow in November 2022 to describe this phenomenon. The American Dialect Society recognized the term's relevance and impact by selecting it as its 2023 Word of the Year. Doctorow has also referred to this concept as platform decay, emphasizing the inevitable decline in service quality due to these profit-driven changes. To tackle and diminish enshittification, Doctorow advocates for two fundamental solutions: upholding the end-to-end principle and guaranteeing the right of exit. The end-to-end principle asserts that platforms should transmit data in response to user requests rather than algorithm-driven decisions. Ensuring the right of exit entails facilitating user departure from platforms without data loss, which necessitates interoperability. These strategies aim to uphold the standards and trustworthiness of online platforms, placing emphasis on user satisfaction and encouraging market competition. Here is a video of Doctrow speaking about his proposal to do something aboutthe enshittification of the internet. The use of the term has broadened, and we can probably say the we are seeing the enshittification of the Secret Service. We are living through The Great Enshittening! There is much to what happened will always be both unknown and unknowable. However, there is much that is known that isn't being shared and won't be shared. Trust in government is broken. The government does not even trust the government. If you take a moment to reflect on all of this, you will see that it clearly demonstrates that the "government" knows it has been corrupted. Welcome to PsyWar - based civil war, where we all are forced to live in a post-truth world. "We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country." ―Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Who is Robert Malone is a reader-supported publication.
