Monstrous Men Devise Monstrous Schemes Without a Qualm of Conscience Nor Fear of God

Not exactly the bashful type nor any kind of wilting wallflower, I said the following to man who had told us about the “sudden deaths” of several young relatives, including a seventeen year-old athlete, “It’s the vaccines, of course. They are part of a massive depopulation program and had nothing to do with preventing people from contracting the Wuhan Virus or mitigating its effects, most are not life-threatening to those who are not elderly and/or do not have preexisting comorbidities, especially if there is proper treatment by means of early intervention. I am seventy-three years, five months old, and I can tell you that there no such thing as the sudden deaths of otherwise healthy children, teenagers, or young adults when I was growing up in the 1950s and the 1960s. This never happened before now.

The man’s eyes lit up. He replied by saying, “I wasn’t going to say anything because you never know where people stand, but I’m glad you said what you said. I agree with you.” He then went on to explain that neither he nor his wife had gotten the poisoned jab, and he also expressed his disbelief how many vaccinations children must receive from birth through high school. “How can the human body tolerate such poisons?” he asked. My answer was simple, “It can’t.”

Here is the tragic case of a one year old child who died after receiving six shots containing an aggregate of twelve vaccines all at once to “catch the baby up” on his “missed vaccines”:

(Children’s Health Defense) — Roughly 12 hours after 1-year-old Sa’Niya was given six shots for 12 vaccines during a wellness visit, the little girl died. Sa’Niya – who had just turned 1 year old on March 11 – received the shots on March 26 at about 4 p.m., at Golisano Children’s Hospital Pediatric Practice in Rochester, New York, according to the baby’s mother, Shanticia Nelson.

The nurse who administered the shots said Sa’Niya needed them to catch her up on vaccinations she missed at her 6-month appointment – a common but potentially dangerous recommendation, according to several pediatricians interviewed by The Defender.

Nelson, her husband Kayon Carter, and Sa’Niya’s grandmother Latricia Hanley shared the story of Sa’Niya’s death in an interview with CHD.TV Program Director Polly Tommey.

“Sa’Niya was a happy baby,” Nelson said. “She was happy and she loved her dad. Everything was ‘dada.’”

According to the visit notes, Sa’Niya was given six shots containing 12 vaccines, including: “DTap/Hep B/IPV (Pediarix), HiB/Acthib/Hiberix, Pneumococcal 20-valent Conj vaccine, Varicella (known commonly as Chickenpox), MMR, and Hepatitis A.”

She also received sodium fluoride as a teeth treatment.

Nelson said she told the nurse she was uncomfortable having Sa’Niya receive so many shots at once. According to Hanley, the nurse became angry and told Nelson, “She needs these shots. You got to give her these shots.”

The nurse never explained the 12 different vaccines and never mentioned the vaccines’ possible side effects, such as seizures and death.

Sa’Niya was a generally healthy baby. However, on the day she received the shots, she had a “little cough and runny nose,” Nelson said. According to the medical notes from the visit, Sa’Niya also had some eczema, diaper dermatitis, and constipation.

‘I just want my baby back’

Within hours after receiving the shots, Sa’Niya’s eyes rolled back and she began foaming at the mouth. The police “ended up coming,” Nelson said. They told her it looked as if Sa’Niya had had a small seizure but that she was breathing OK.

Nelson recalled the police saying, “You guys don’t have to take her to the hospital, but if you want to take her to the hospital to make sure she’s OK, you could do that.”

Nelson knew something was seriously wrong with Sa’Niya. “I looked at my baby and I said, ‘No, my baby is not right … this is not my daughter. My daughter is active. As soon she gets picked up, she’s active.’”

But when Nelson picked her up in that moment, Sa’Niya “just laid there … her eyes just wandered. She wasn’t responding to me calling her name how she used to.”

An ambulance took Sa’Niya to Saint Vincent Hospital in Lake Erie, Pennsylvania, where doctors started running tests on her. They told Nelson it appeared Sa’Niya had had four seizures by the time she arrived at the hospital.

Nelson left the hospital room to bring in her husband and two older children.

The parents and older children hadn’t been in the waiting room for more than two minutes when a nurse told Nelson, “I’m sorry but your daughter – she’s very sick … right now she’s in cardiac arrest.”

Nelson was told that Sa’Niya’s heart wasn’t responding to CPR and that her blood sugar level was over 700.

Hospital staff continued CPR for roughly 40 minutes. They said, “We’re going to check for a pulse one more time, and if we don’t have a pulse anymore, she’s gone.”

Nelson said, “They checked and she didn’t have that pulse.”

That happened around 4 a.m. on March 27, Nelson told The Defender. “I just want my baby back,” Nelson said. “No amount of money in this world can replace my baby … I want justice for my baby.”

Nelson, Carter, and Hanley said in their CHD.TV interview that they hope what happened to Sa’Niya will never happen to another child.

They encouraged parents to do their own research rather than trusting medical staff to give informed consent for the risks of vaccination.

“Don’t let your kids take the vaccination shots,” Nelson said. “Ask questions. Before they give you anything, ask questions because I promise you they’re not going to tell you everything.”

Multiple shots at 1-year wellness visit not rare

Dr. Liz Mumper, a pediatrician, said it’s “tragic that a healthy baby died soon after receiving multiple vaccines.” But unfortunately, it’s not as rare as people might think.

Historically, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has “encouraged clinicians to take every opportunity to catch babies up on vaccines,” Mumper said.

She disagreed with claims that all babies can handle lots of vaccines given at the same time. She said:

Specifically, some babies do not have the liver function or detoxification capacity to handle a cumulative aluminum load. Vaccines stress mitochondria – the powerhouses of the cell. Some babies do not have enough mitochondrial reserve to tolerate the oxidative stress of multiple vaccines on the same day.

As The Defender previously reported, pediatric clinics can receive multiple financial incentives for administering vaccines. For example, insurance companies may offer pediatricians bonus payments for meeting certain benchmarks, such as having around 80 percent of patients fully vaccinated by age 2.

The AAP did not immediately respond when The Defender asked how common it is for pediatricians to do catch-up vaccinations – such as giving a 1-year-old additional shots because the baby missed its 6-month vaccinations – and whether the AAP continues to encourage the practice.

1-year visit ‘most dangerous visit of all’

Three other pediatricians – Drs. Renata Moon, Paul Thomas, and Lawrence Palevsky – also told The Defender that administering multiple vaccines to babies and children to “catch them up” isn’t all that rare.

“The death of any child is an absolute tragedy,” said Moon. She told The Defender:

Catch-up vaccines are regularly given in most offices. Parents need to clearly understand the risks and benefits of each individual shot and the risks of giving them in different combinations all at one time.

We need a public health system that we can trust to act only in the best interests of our nation’s children, and not in the best interests of the pocketbooks of big pharmaceutical companies.

Dr. Paul Thomas, a retired Dartmouth-trained pediatrician, said that it’s “very common” for pediatricians to attempt to catch babies and children up on vaccines. “This is routinely done at all well visits.”

Most babies are potentially given around nine vaccines at their 1-year wellness visit if the provider is following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedule.

Thomas said, “The one-year well visit has become the most dangerous visit of all – especially if pediatricians are giving the COVID jab.”

The CDC schedule recommends 12-month-olds receive: a third dose of the hepatitis B vaccine, a third or fourth dose of the haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib) vaccine, a fourth dose of the pneumococcal vaccine, the third dose of the polio vaccine, one or more doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, one or two doses of the influenza vaccine, one dose of the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, one dose of the varicella vaccine, and one dose of the hepatitis A vaccine.

Doctors may also choose to give a dose of the RSV vaccine.

Thomas, author of Vax Facts: What to Consider Before Vaccinating at All Ages & Stages of Life, said that in the chapter on sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS, infant deaths are happening right after vaccines with 78.3 percent (combined data from six studies) dying in the first week after vaccines.

“Vaccines are killing our children,” Thomas continued. “There is data showing that for every vaccine on the childhood schedule, your child is more likely to die from the vaccine than from the disease the vaccine covers.”

He added:

When you understand that vaccines have never been tested with a proper saline placebo, the safety data is only collected for a few days, weeks or months and they never look at all health outcomes, you begin to understand that parents should think carefully about what they are about to put in their child’s body.

When injured, you cannot sue anyone or any company. All involved are protected by the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.

‘Few, if any, pediatricians understand that vaccines can cause harm or injury’

Dr. Lawrence Palevsky also said it’s “very common” for pediatricians to do as many catch-up vaccines in one pediatric visit as what Sa’Niya received.

“Few, if any, pediatricians understand that vaccines can cause harm or injury,” he said. “They also don’t know that the safety and efficacy of the administration of multiple vaccines at the same time have, for the most part, never been studied.”

Angela Wulbrecht, a nurse who serves on the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation’s board of directors, pointed out the same thing. “I feel like parents are not given true informed consent that these things can happen.”

Wulbrecht is assisting Sa’Niya’s family in completing a Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) report for her death. VAERS is co-managed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the CDC.

Wulbrecht is also working with the family to be sure an independent autopsy of Sa’Niya is completed so her family will have thorough, accurate information about the biological mechanisms that caused her death.

Dr. Jacob Puliyel, head of pediatrics at St. Stephens Hospital Delhi, India, called giving 12 vaccines during one appointment “clearly excessive.”

Puliyel said, “This child was given 12 vaccines, where even five vaccines are associated with sudden deaths.”

In 2018, Puliyel and his colleagues published a peer-reviewed article that suggested a link between SIDS and a pentavalent vaccine. According to the World Health Organization, the pentavalent vaccine protects against five diseases: diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, and Hib.

In 2017, Puliyel and his colleagues also published findings on a link between SIDS and a hexavalent vaccine that targets diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B, inactivated poliomyelitis, and Haemophilus influenza type B vaccine.

Puliyel said, “Parents must be made aware of these risks and one hopes the U.S. FDA will investigate these reports and inform the public. Doctors need clear guidance about the dangers.”

(Baby dies after receiving 6 shots for 12 vaccines – doctors say ‘catching up’ kids on vaccines is common and dangerous.)

“Sudden Infant Death Syndrome” (SIDS) is caused by vaccines. So is “Sudden Adult Death Syndrome” (SADS). How monstrous is it that a nurse was so stupid as to have believed that a child’s body could tolerate twelve vaccines given in six shots all at once? Then again, medical professionals are brainwashed into believing whatever Big Pharma and the Centers for Disease Control and Protection contend is “safe” and they want to be known as “reliable” little minions in the advancement of “public health” by following all the “guidelines” and “recommendations that posted so prominently in pediatrician’s office. Even adults get badgered with “Are you up to date on your vaccines?” questions and refuseniks such as this writer get little notes put into their permanent records when they no not only say not but then a whole litany of reasons why the vaccines are dangerous and must be refused as matter of personal conscience, starting with the fact most every one of them is derived from the cells of aborted babies.

How sad it is that so many people who know what is going on are afraid to speak out because they do want to lose someone’s business or friendship.

How sad it is that there are still so many people today who refuse to accept the fact that the poisoned jabs created under the forty-fifth President’s warped Operation Warp Speed not only maimed and killed countless tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of human beings but even made the Wuhan Virus it was advertised as preventing or mitigating more serious and even deadly:

Dr. Peter McCullough is shining a light on a disturbing new study that reveals an explosion in COVID-related deaths from 2020 until 2023.

McCullough shared on social media site X today a link directing his followers to a post on Focal Points, a Substack blog that he operates. Dr. Nicolas Hulscher, MPH, who works alongside McCullough for his foundation, had summarized the study in an article.

WHO Data Reveals Global COVID-19 Deaths Skyrocketed After Mass Vaccination New study finds that mass COVID-19 vaccination not only failed, but made things worse — with the highest death surges in the most heavily vaccinated populations. Loading the body with Spike protein from Loading the body with Spike protein from vaccination has made illness become more severe and deadly. Cardiac complications and blood clots are caused by vaccination--risks elevated for years. Death from all causes increased from the Spike protein. (Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH® on X: "WHO Data Reveals Global COVID-19 Deaths Skyrocketed After Mass Vaccination New study finds that mass COVID-19 vaccination not only failed, but made things worse — with the highest death surges in the most heavily vaccinated populations. Loading the body with Spike protein from https://t.co/UvMGySskt1" / X.)

The study was published in the International Journal of Risk & Safety in Medicine. It is titled “Paradoxical increase in global COVID-19 deaths with vaccination coverage: World Health Organization estimates (2020–2023).”

Among other things, the study shockingly found that “COVID-19 mortality increased in the vaccination era, especially in regions with higher vaccination coverage.”

McCullough took to social media to share the troubling data.

“New study finds that mass COVID-19 vaccination not only failed, but made things worse — with the highest death surges in the most heavily vaccinated populations,” he said.

McCullough also noted that “loading the body with Spike protein from vaccination has made illness become more severe and deadly. Cardiac complications and blood clots are caused by vaccination — risks elevated for years. Death from all causes increased from the Spike protein.”

McCullough has drawn attention to other COVID-induced side effects on Focal Points as well, including kidney disease, myocarditis, and even death. LifeSite has routinely reported on McCullough’s findings since the advent of the virus and has shown how the shot has been linked to various injuries but also so-called “turbo cancers,” which McCullough has said may be the result of the jab.

Coroners and funeral directors have also admitted that there has been an unusual uptick in blood clots found in deceased persons in recent years, with some of them saying that the COVID shot is to blame. (Dr. McCullough sounds alarm after study shows COVID deaths skyrocketed after vaccinations.)

So much for the miracle cures that were being touted as such by President Donald Trump for having save one hundred million or more lives until he was told by some country singer named John Rich to stop talking about the jabs:

Country star John Rich told President Donald Trump that the reason his supporters booed him at his rallies during his 2024 bid for the White House was because of his constant boasting about Operation Warp Speed, Trump’s controversial COVID-19 program that injured millions of Americans.

Rich explained to the hosts of the Try That In a Small Town Podcast that he was at a dinner with Trump and other high-ranking Republican politicians several years ago. Senator Lindsey Graham, Senator Marsha Blackburn, as well as then-Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker were also present, among others.

At one point during the evening, Trump turned to Rich and asked for his advice on how to deal with his tough crowds.

“[Trump] goes, ‘why are people booing me at my rallies when I bring up the vaccine?’” Rich said.

Before sharing his answer, Rich explained to the podcast hosts that he knew Trump was proud of Operation Warp Speed so he had to collect himself before speaking directly to him.

“Okay, I’m going to tell you the answer and you’re not going to like it,” Rich told Trump. “We, the American people, do not trust the people that you were forced to trust … the FDA, the CDC, the NIH, the WHO, Fauci and all the rest of them … we consider them to be a bunch of murderous de-populationist psychopaths.”

he remarks floored Trump, Rich said, who was “stunned” and who Rich believed had never been told that his base was furious with the program.

“Now, let me tell you why they’re booing you,” he continued. “Every human being out in that rally, either themselves or they know someone directly who has been harmed by the vaccine or has even died from it, including me.”

“I said, ‘I got members of my own family who were forced to take it against their will to keep their jobs, and now they’ve got all kinds of problems.’”

At that point in the evening, Trump turned to ask the rest of the table if anyone else had heard about this. Rich said that Herschel Walker spoke up and told Trump that voters at his rallies were telling him the same thing.

Rich said Lindsey Graham then interrupted him and told Trump to not listen to “conspiracy theorists like John Rich” and instead keep taking credit for Operation Warp Speed.

That prompted Rich to shoot back and tell Graham to never interrupt him or show him such disrespect again. He also said that after he finished his remarks to Trump, Trump said, “so I guess, no more vaccine talk.” Rich said he told him that was a good idea.

Since 2019, LifeSite has extensively reported on the innumerable harmful side effects of the COVID shot, including blood clots, myocarditis, miscarriages, and even sudden death.

Many high-profile public persons, including Elon Musk, Megyn Kelly, and Chris Cuomo, formerly of CNN, have said they were injured by the shot. While Trump has notably not spoken about the shot since the 2024 presidential campaign, he has also not signed executive orders or pursued legislation that would hold vaccine-makers accountable for the injures their COVID products caused, a move many medical freedom advocates are still hopeful will happen with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. now at the helm of the Health and Human Services Department. (Country star John Rich explains how he got Trump to stop bragging about Operation Warp Speed.)

I do not know who John Rich as I abhor country music as little more than a celebration of impurity and narcissism, but he spoke the truth to then former President Donald John Trump last year even though the thirty-third degree Freemasonic nattering nabob of ignorance named Lindsay Graham dismissed evidence such as has been provided in over thirty-five extensive commentaries on this site, including in the twenty-five part “Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus” series, as nothing other than conspiracy theories. What a willfully blind dope. Apart from being an unreconstructed neoconservative war hawk, of course.

Then again, the fact that Donald John Trump himself was blind to the facts about his so-called “miracle vaccines” is itself inexcusable when one considers the fact that mRNA inventor Dr. Robert Malone prepared an “impact video” for him in 2022 that did not dissuade the then former president from the religious faith he put in the poisoned jabs that, in his warped, narcissistic mind, made him a hero for “saving” lives. Here is a reprised report from January 2023:

mRNA technology pioneer and prominent critic of the COVID-19 establishment Dr. Robert Malone declared that he cannot support former President Donald Trump’s bid to return to the White House as long as the candidate continues to stand by the COVID-19 vaccines his administration oversaw.

During an interview on Real America’s Voice, host David Brody asked if Trump would “acknowledge that the COVID-19 vaccines were not as safe or effective as we were told by the medical community at the time,” citing the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention’s (CDC’s) recent acknowledgment that it is investigating a potential link between the Bivalent Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and ischemic stroke for recipients age 65 or above. (The agency later said the link was “very unlikely.”)

NEW: When asked if he has concerns about the safety of Covid Vaccines, President Trump tells me, "Well, I always do, but you have to understand. There are the pros and cons…I never demanded anybody use it. I never had a mandate. And I think that's very important to know." pic.twitter.com/P2Aic1Xezz

— David Brody (@DBrodyReports) January 17, 2023

In response, Trump launched into a self-congratulatory defense of the COVID shots, which were developed and released in a fraction of the time vaccines usually take under his administration’s Operation Warp Speed initiative. “I was able to get something approved that, you know, that has proven to have saved a lot of lives,” he said. “Some people say that I saved 100 million lives worldwide.”

“You have to understand, there are the pros and cons,” the president went on. “Some reports [say] that it’s the greatest thing that’s ever happened and we saved tens of millions of lives. Then you’ll read other reports [that] say there were some problems with the vaccine …but relatively small numbers.

“But, you know, you have many reports that say the vaccines save tens of millions of lives,” Trump reiterated. “That without the vaccines you would have had a thing … where perhaps 100 million people died.”

His answer did not sit well with Malone, who endorsed a declaration that “this will not get elected. I am out,” from Dr. Brian Tyson. He followed up by revealing that he once filmed a video meant to encourage Trump to change his mind on the subject, but it had “no impact.”

Regretfully, I stand with Brian https://t.co/wWGdfwzQcb — Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) January 19, 2023

I shot a film segment designed to help DJT see the truth. No impact. As I said, it is with regret that I have to agree with Brian. This is different from Mikki’s point. This is DJT’s decision. I disagree. — Robert W Malone, MD (@RWMaloneMD) January 19, 2023

Despite the assurances of the former president and the CDC, there remains ample cause for concern about the safety of the COVID shots.

The U.S. federal government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports 33,591 deaths, 188,857 hospitalizations, 18,181 heart attacks, and 26,166 myocarditis and pericarditis cases as of January 6. An April study out of Israel indicates that COVID infection alone cannot account for such myocarditis cases, despite claims to the contrary. Jab defenders are quick to stress that reports submitted to VAERS are unconfirmed, as anyone can submit one, but CDC researchers have recognized a “high verification rate of reports of myocarditis to VAERS after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination,” leading to the conclusion that “under-reporting is more likely” than over-reporting.

Further, VAERS is not the only data source containing red flags. Data from the U.S. Pentagon’s Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED) shows that 2021 saw drastic spikes in a variety of diagnoses for serious medical issues over the previous five-year average, including hypertension (2,181%), neurological disorders (1,048%), multiple sclerosis (680%), Guillain-Barre syndrome (551%), breast cancer, (487%), female infertility (472%), pulmonary embolism (468%), migraines (452%), ovarian dysfunction (437%), testicular cancer (369%), and tachycardia (302%).

In September, the Japanese Society for Vaccinology published a peer-reviewed study conducted by researchers from Stanford, UCLA, and the University of Maryland, which found that the “Pfizer trial exhibited a 36% higher risk of serious adverse events in the vaccine group” while the “Moderna trial exhibited a 6% higher risk of serious adverse events in the vaccine group,” for a combined “16% higher risk of serious adverse events in mRNA vaccine recipients.”

In December, Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin hosted a roundtable discussion during which civil rights attorney Aaron Siri detailed data from the CDC’s V-Safe reporting system revealing that 800,000 of the system’s 10 million participants, or approximately 7.7 percent, reported needing medical care after COVID injection. “Twenty-five percent of those people needed emergency care or were hospitalized, and another 48 percent sought urgent care,” Siri added. “Also, another 25 percent on top of the 7.7 percent reported being unable to work or go to school.”

Another study by a team of American, British, and Canadian researchers, published December 5 by the in the Journal of Medical Ethics, found that COVID booster mandates for university students – a relatively healthy group at relatively low risk from the virus – do far more harm than good: “per COVID-19 hospitalisation prevented, we anticipate at least 18.5 serious adverse events from mRNA vaccines, including 1.5–4.6 booster-associated myopericarditis cases in males (typically requiring hospitalisation).”

Trump’s continued support of the COVID vaccines, which are the only major item among his presidential accomplishments that has not been either reversed by the Biden administration or opposed by corporate media, is arguably the biggest liability of his 2024 campaign.

Since leaving office, he has repeatedly promoted them, including insisting that, as “one of the greatest achievements of mankind,” they would not be controversial if he were still president, and accusing his hesitant supporters of “playing right into their [the Left’s] hands,” all the while stressing that he never supported mandating them.

The persistent negative reception that message received apparently convinced Trump to drop the subject in many of his rallies, though as recently as July 2022 he complained that “we did so much in terms of therapeutics and a word that I’m not allowed to mention. But I’m still proud of that word, because we did that in nine months, and it was supposed to take five years to 12 years. Nobody else could have done it. But I’m not mentioning it in front of my people.”  (Dr. Robert Malone says he can’t support Trump while ex-president stands by COVID-19 jabs.)

Such willful blindness even in the face of reports about sudden deaths keep mounting, almost on a daily basis, and the reports of the injuries and deaths caused by the “vaccines” multiply regularly, including in a peer-reviewed study that proved the links between the mRNA Wuhan Virus vaccines and cancer, especially leukemia, as well as producing changes in the genetic structure of patients who have received them, changes that will ultimately change the entire human genome system:

A new peer-reviewed study links the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines to long-term changes in genetic structures that can provoke an inflammatory response, and lead to the onset of cancer and autoimmune disorders.

The study by 19 German scientists was published last week in Molecular Systems Biology. The researchers said their findings may account for “post vaccination inflammatory diseases which occur in a small number of vaccinated individuals.”

Journalist Alex Berenson said the study shows that mRNA vaccines can alter human chromosomes in ways linked to leukemia and brain tumors. This occurs when the mRNA vaccines “train” immune cells to sustain a pro-inflammatory immune response.

According to epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher, “This study adds to the large body of evidence describing potent immune dysregulating effects of mRNA injections.”

Hulscher said the study raises “serious concerns about long-term immune homeostasis and the potential for chronic inflammatory disease, autoimmune sequelae, and even oncogenic processes.”

Immunologist and biochemist Jessica Rose, Ph.D., said the study confirms what is already known about the risks of mRNA vaccines. She said:

“Repeat injection leads to a boatload of immunological modifications. This is not new information. We know that these kinds of changes can occur. It is not surprising to me that they found this.

“If the systemic reach goes far enough, such as to stem cells, then repeated injection could potentially induce epigenetic changes in these cells, especially since hematopoietic stem cells are known to develop innate immune memory in response to certain stimuli like infections or other vaccines.”

Epigenetics refers to how human behavior and the environment can cause changes that affect how genes work. According to Berenson, the changes caused by the mRNA COVID-19 shots are epigenetic, as “they occur around DNA’s core and activate genes in ways that can promote tumor growth.”

“The risk here is, of course, prolonged and excessive inflammation, which might contribute to tissue damage or chronic inflammatory conditions in some contexts, which we do see in pharmacovigilance data,” Rose said.

mRNA led to genetic alterations connected to leukemia, brain tumors

For their study, the researchers examined changes in the chromosomes of macrophages — immune cells that circulate in the blood — among people who had received mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.

The study found that the vaccines altered a key component of these chromosomes — the histones.

A histone is a “DNA-binding protein that gives DNA its 3D structure,” said Karl Jablonowski, Ph.D., senior research scientist at Children’s Health Defense. Most scientific studies on the modification of histones “primarily focus on the manifestation of disease,” Jablonowski said.

He added:

“The familiar X and Y images of chromosomes are only possible because DNA wraps around histone proteins. They are among the most evolutionary conserved proteins among all multicellular life. Plants, animals or fungi that attempt reproduction with a small random mutation that changes the histone protein will not survive — probably not past the first cell’s division.”

Berenson said that histones play a key role in processing genetic material. “When histones are more widely separated, cells will process, or transcribe DNA more actively — potentially leading to tumor growth.”

The researchers identified a change called “histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation” (H3K27ac), and observed “Persistent epigenetic memory of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in monocyte-derived macrophages.”

According to Berenson, this alteration “is known to be found in several different types of cancer and has attracted increasing scientific attention.”

The study found that the H3K27ac changes occurred across multiple chromosomal regions and were found to persist for many months after vaccination. According to the researchers, this suggests that similar alterations are occurring in monocytes — a type of white blood cell that produces macrophages.

The findings mirror the outcomes of other recent peer-reviewed studies that have examined H3K27ac alterations. A Chinese study published in February found that H3K27ac has “emerging potential as a therapeutic target in cancer.”

A Polish study last year found that H3K27ac alterations were associated with cancers such as leukemia and gliomas, or brain tumors.

Study results strengthen calls to suspend or withdraw mRNA vaccines

The study was accompanied by a published discussion with outside reviewers, in which the researchers said that the alterations they identified are likely also occurring in bone marrow cells — from which leukemia can originate.

Berenson suggested that this may account for rising leukemia diagnoses in countries like Japan, with a high rate of mRNA vaccination.

“Leukemia is essentially a cancer of stem cells, and Japanese researchers have found a statistically significant increase in leukemia in Japan in 2022 and 2023. Japan relied almost exclusively on mRNA jabs against Covid, and nearly every adult received both the initial two-shot regimen and a booster,” Berenson wrote.

Last year, Japan became the first — and so far only — country to approve a self-amplifying mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.

Berenson said the researchers avoided making a connection between the mRNA vaccines and bone marrow alterations in the published paper itself for unclear reasons.

The paper’s authors did not respond to a request for comment.

Jablonowski said it was “painful” to read the paper “because of their conviction and arrogance that histone modification only had an upside.”

“It was the result of a vaccine and, in the authors’ eyes, could do no wrong,” Jablonowski said. “Unintended reprogramming of progenitor cells” — cells with the ability to differentiate into different cell types, including stem cells — “is not to be lauded, it is to be feared.” He added:

“With every advancement in knowledge of the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines, we are again reminded of our own complacency about the blinded rush to push these products into every American.

“With the revelation of epigenetic reprogramming of progenitor cells, quite capable of causing disease, would the U.S. Food and Drug Administration [FDA] so blindly approve mRNA products, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] so blindly recommend them and politicians so blindly mandate them?”

Rose said the study’s findings strengthen growing calls by scientists to suspend or ban mRNA vaccines.

A petition before the FDA, filed earlier this year by a group of scientists, calls for the suspension or withdrawal of the mRNA COVID-19 shots. The petition cites evidence that the products are unapproved gene therapies and contaminated with DNA plasmids.

Several recent studies have also questioned the safety of the mRNA shots.

A 2023 preprint study detected levels of synthetic DNA in the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 shots 18 to 70 times above regulatory limits.

A December 2024 peer-reviewed study supervised by FDA scientists detected synthetic DNA contamination levels in the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines that were 6 to 470 times above regulatory limits.

Last week, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the creation of a sub-agency within the CDC that will focus on vaccine injuries. (mRNA Vaccines Linked to Genetic Changes That Can Cause Cancer, Autoimmune Disorders.)

Additionally, the spike proteins within the jabs helped to spread the Wuhan Virus by means of excretions from the bodies of those who were gullible enough into doing as they were told or because they feared losing their jobs and created long term medical problems for many of those who received them:

Data evidencing shedding of the spike protein produced by the COVID mRNA “vaccine,” and potentially even the shedding of its genetic mRNA, is mounting. The symptoms of poisoning by spike protein – the ultimate culprit of COVID virus, shot, or shedding-induced disease – vary greatly: from heart attacks to diabetes, menstrual problems to rashes. 

Shedding is not a crazy conspiracy theory, but a possibility acknowledged by the medical establishment. The Food and Drug Administration has admitted to the possibility of shedding by those who receive gene therapy products, and Pfizer’s own protocol for testing their COVID shot mandated that a healthcare worker in the trials report any pregnancy “after having been exposed” to the jabbed “by inhalation or skin contact.”

Since a large portion of the population has been injected with at least one COVID shot, it is impractical to avoid the jabbed, to say nothing of our duties of charity. We do not want to be like the vaccinated who shut out their own family from gatherings during the pandemic, in so many heartbreaking cases. We have, thankfully, recourse to a few different ways by which we can stop the spike protein, with all of its accompanying damage, in its tracks.

According to several doctors, sensitivity to such shedding varies greatly, with the most sensitive of the affected claiming the shedding of the jabbed is continuing indefinitely. A practicing physician and Substack writer known as The Midwestern Doctor has pointed out that numerous studies show that after a COVID shot, spike protein production in the blood peaks, “and then declines but never reaches zero and appears to continue for months afterward.”

A Brief Interjection:

A case was reported to me directly by an eyewitness that a nonvaccinated woman collapsed in heap to the ground when speaking to a recently vaccinated women at a conference. The nonvaccinated woman began to experience painful cramping and nausea when she was otherwise completely healthy.

Shedding is real.

Believe it.

Back to the study:

The fact that the most sensitive to shedding are claiming it occurs indefinitely suggests that this is indeed happening, with no observable symptoms in many, perhaps the majority of people. The esteemed Dr. Peter McCullough has also pointed out that a study from Harvard shows that those suffering from long COVID “probably have circulating spike protein from the virus” in their bloodstream.

The following protocols, then, are not only for those suffering symptoms due to spike protein exposure but for those who simply want to take precautions, especially given the frequent reports of blood-clotting experienced by the jabbed, as well as the menstrual clotting abnormalities experienced by those who have been jabbed, infected with COVID, or exposed to the jabbed.

Medical freedom champion Dr. Mark Trozzi has shared three methods by which one can help rid the body of the spike protein and minimize its effects:

• Accelerating the process of autophagy through intermittent fasting
• Ingesting Nattokinase, which “digests” the spike protein
• Taking substances which block the uptake of the spike protein, such as ivermectin and quercetin 

Intermittent fasting

Autophagy, the process by which old parts of our cells are essentially recycled to create new parts and new cells, is always taking place in the body, as Trozzi has pointed out. This process breaks down old or toxic proteins including the coronavirus spike protein that is mass manufactured after the jabs. And so, a practice like intermittent fasting, which speeds up autophagy, can help the process of detoxing the spike protein. In fact, according to Trozzi, fasting is the quickest and most powerful way to stimulate autophagy. 

The doctor recommends eating within, ideally, a six-hour window, although one can start with an eight or 10-hour window and potentially work toward a six-hour time frame. A helpful way to fast is to skip breakfast while drinking a lot of quality water. Drinking tea or coffee within this time frame is permissible; coconut oil, since it is pure fat, and stevia in the coffee won’t interrupt the autophagy process, although sugar must be avoided.

Fasting has other tremendous health benefits, such as combating diabetes and cancer.

Nattokinase

Trozzi explains that Nattokinase, which can be purchased for ingestion through pill form, basically “digests” proteins, breaking them down into their amino acid components so that they can either be reused for new protein synthesis or eliminated from the body.

Not only does Nattokinase digest spike protein, it digests blood clots and inhibits their formation. Thus, it is an especially powerful remedy for those afflicted with spike proteins.

Trozzi recommends a dose of 100 to 200 mg of Nattokinase daily, either as an individual supplement or in combination with other nutraceuticals. 

Nattokinase has many other reported health benefits, including reducing blood pressure, reducing chronic sinusitis, relieving COPD, and improving gut microbiome health, according to the doctor.

Bromelain is another protein-digesting enzyme which can help. Trozzi recommends 500 mg of Bromelain once daily.

Ivermectin and quercetin

Trozzi and others have pointed out that in order to damage our cells, the spike protein must bind to our cells, mainly through ACE2 receptors. Certain substances bind to this receptor so that the spike protein cannot, which according to Trozzi, “stops spike proteins from marking our own cells as foreign and targeting them for attack by our own immune system.”

Ivermectin and quercetin reportedly do this effectively, making them a helpful part of a spike protein detox program.

Other helpful measures aim to counter the hyper-inflammatory state triggered by the toxic spike protein. These include curcumin, 500 mg twice daily, and NAC (N-acetyl cysteine), 600- 1200 mg daily. (Evidence for COVID vaccine shedding is mounting. Here’s how you can protect yourself.)

A physician told interviewer Tucker Carlson some plain truths about the spike proteins found in the Wuhan Virus jabs as well as the number of deaths that have been caused by them, especially in children, who are not at risk of getting seriously ill from the Wuhan Virus:

A physician recently pointed out to Tucker Carlson that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is still recommending that children receive updated COVID shots despite a reported death toll from the jabs of over 38,000 in the U.S. alone.

“I’ve never seen anything like it with any other product on the market,” Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, an ear, nose and throat specialist in Houston, Texas, told Carlson in a lengthy interview about COVID and its treatment. Bowden said that after the rollout of the COVID shots, seven percent of her new patients were seeing her for severe injuries due to the jab.

Five years after the greatest crime in American history, the only people who’ve been punished are the ones who told the truth about Covid. Dr. Mary Talley Bowden is one of them.

“Normally, the FDA will put a black box warning on a medication if there have been five deaths. They will pull it off the market if there have been 50. Well, according to VAERS, (the) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System — and it’s vastly under-reported, which I have seen firsthand — there have been 38,000 deaths from these COVID shots,” Bowden said. 

As of March 28, there were a reported 38,541 COVID shot deaths submitted to VAERS. This is almost certainly underestimated considering that the jab rollout was followed by an alarming trend of athletes collapsing and dying after heart attacks.

Despite the outrageously high number of reported deaths due to the COVID shots — which were produced in a fraction of the time ordinarily required to bring a “vaccine” to market — instead of pulling the shots, the FDA has “doubled down” on them, Bowden noted, including by placing them on the childhood vaccine schedule. 

“All babies are expected to get three COVID shots by the time they’re nine months old,” she pointed out, despite the fact that the COVID viral infection is “like the common cold now,” as Dr. Peter McCullough has admitted, in addition to the safety risk of the shots.

For these reasons and more, the Florida Department of Health has actually recommended against COVID shots for children. “We’re kind of scraping at the bottom of the barrel, particularly with healthy kids, in terms of actually being able to quantify with any accuracy and any confidence the even potential of benefit,” Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, a Harvard University-trained doctor, said in 2022. 

In fact, the shots are still under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) status for children under 12, according to Bowden. And yet the CDC has reported that nine million American children have received the latest version of these COVID shots. 

Safety concerns for children are compounded by the fact that myocarditis, or heart inflammation, is a well-documented risk for young people who receive the mRNA COVID shots, especially teenage boys.

“That’s why we can’t let this just go away … We don’t know what that risk is for nonverbal babies, because the symptom is chest pain. So, a baby could be getting myocarditis and we have no idea,” Bowden told Carlson. “Myocarditis can leave a scar on the heart.”

Bowden’s own experience and study has confirmed what other doctors have cited as explanatory factors underlying the risk posed by the shots. For example, she found that there is a “huge discrepancy” between the spike protein antibody levels of the vaccinated — which are an average of “13,000,” even now, years after the shot — and the unvaccinated, whose spike protein antibody levels are at a thousand on average.

According to Bowden, this “suggests that spike protein is still active and still replicating possibly in the body,” which itself can be explained by the fact that the synthetic mRNA used in the COVID shots “was made to avoid degradation … to stay in the body.”

Many doctors agree that the spike protein from the shot, and even from the virus itself, appears to persist in people’s bodies years afterward. A practicing physician and Substack writer known as The Midwestern Doctor has pointed out that numerous studies show that after a COVID shot spike protein production in the blood peaks, “and then declines but never reaches zero and appears to continue for months afterward.”

Like Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a transplant surgeon and owner of the Los Angeles Times, Bowden says the spike protein is oncogenic, that is, cancer-causing. However, she attributed this to a different mechanism than that cited by Dr. Soon-Shiong: She said cancer can arise from mistakes that occur in the production of new proteins by the shot’s mRNA.

Bowden pointed out that Ivermectin helps to “bin(d) the spike protein” and is also anti-inflammatory, while the Canadian Dr. Mark Trozzi has suggested intermittent fasting, Nattokinase, and quercetin as well as ivermectin to combat and block the spike protein.

All these risks considered, Bowden believes the COVID shots “need to be pulled off the market immediately.”

During her interview with Carlson, she also recounted how she successfully treated COVID infections during the pandemic without the mRNA shots, explaining that she is still fighting to keep her license as a result.

Her persecution by the Texas Medical Board began with a suspension by Houston Methodist Hospital over so-called “vaccine misinformation,” simply for publicly questioning the efficacy of the COVID shot. During the viral outbreak, she meanwhile kept over 6,000 COVID patients out of the hospital using her protocols, which she told Carlson could include high-dose steroids, high-dose ivermectin, antibiotics, breathing treatments, and high-dose vitamin C.

“Everybody that got early treatment survived,” said Bowden, adding that she also had a “lot” of late-stage cases of very sick people who survived with her protocols.

Information about her practice can be found at https://breathemd.org/ (Doctor tells Tucker Carlson: CDC still promoting COVID shots for kids after 38,000 jab deaths.)

Yes, doctors in the supposedly “free” United States of America who even questioned the efficacy of the one-size cookie-cutter protocols for late-intervention mandated by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and/or who questioned the safety or efficacy of the poisoned jabs were either threatened with suspension, suspended, or lost their accreditations with hospitals, peer-reviewed medical journals, including some that had been started by physicians who were sanctioned for their refusal to accept the protocols or the actual government misinformation, and the loss of their medical licenses even innocent human beings have been killed by the poisoned jabs and the rigid protocols.

This is no “conspiracy theory,” President Trump.

This is no “conspiracy theory,” Lindsay Graham.

This is no “conspiracy theory,” Bill Cassidy.

This is no “conspiracy theory,” Susan Collins.

This is no “conspiracy theory,” whoever was using Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr.’s autopen.

These are facts.

However, not only did the administration of former President in Name Only Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., and Vice President in charge of Word Salads Kamala Harris Emhoff use a massive censorship scheme to suppress truth by calling it “disinformation,” a scheme that was upheld thanks in large measure to a Donald John Trump appointee to the Supreme Court of the United States of America named Amy Coney Barrett (see Supreme Delusions Enable Supreme Tyrants to Supremely Crush Dissent), but some of its officials did so by deleting their own emails to cover-up the known truth:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention doctor in charge of monitoring reports of adverse COVID-19 vaccine reactions has been accused by a Republican senator of mishandling and possibly deleting key records.

Officials at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) struggled to find records belonging to Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, the director of the CDC’s Immunization Safety Office, while trying to comply with a subpoena from Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) for vaccine safety data.

“HHS officials recently informed me that Dr. Shimabukuro’s records remain lost and, potentially, removed from HHS’s email system altogether,” Johnson wrote in a Wednesday letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel and acting HHS watchdog Juliet Hodgkins.

“Dr. Shimabukuro’s potential mishandling of his official records is highly concerning.”

It is not clear what specific records are missing, but Johnson’s team was told HHS was struggling to locate information for which Shimabukuro had responsibility and that should exist, an aide explained to The Post.

Last November, Johnson had asked HHS, the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration to “preserve all records referring or relating to the development, safety, and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccines.”

In January, after becoming chair of the Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, Johnson blasted out a subpoena for records on internal COVID-19 vaccine safety communications, which led to HHS discovering the potential discrepancies with Shimabukuro’s emails.

“Any attempt to obstruct or interfere with my investigatory efforts would be grounds for contempt of Congress,” Johnson wrote Wednesday.

Contempt of Congress is punishable by up to a six-figure fine and 12 months in prison.

Under the Federal Records Act, government officials are required to preserve materials “made or received by a Federal agency under Federal law or in connection with the transaction of public business.”

Johnson is calling upon the FBI, DOJ and HHS Inspector General’s Office to probe whether Shimabukuro and other federal health officials “deleted or destroyed official agency records.”

He is also demanding an inquiry into whether records were intentionally deleted to “avoid or subvert
Congressional oversight or the Freedom of Information Act.”

The Post reached out to Shimabukuro, HHS, and the CDC for comment.

The Wisconsin senator’s concerns about Shimabukuro’s adherence to record-keeping requirements comes on the heels of revelations that National Institutes of Health (NIH) senior adviser Dr. David Morens “retained very few emails or documents” pertaining to the government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In November 2023, Johnson discovered evidence that Morens had instructed colleagues in 2021 to contact him at his Gmail address.

Morens later indicated that he couldn’t remember whether or not he deleted emails. The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic found evidence that Morens sought guidance from the NIH’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) office on how to avoid records requests.

“I had always suspected that Dr. Morens was not the sole evader of federal record-keeping requirements at HHS,” Johnson remarked.

“The extent to which HHS officials systemically mishandled, deleted, or destroyed their communications, data, and other information relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the vaccines must be thoroughly investigated.”

Johnson and other Republican lawmakers in Congress have battled with the HHS watchdog for months, trying to get it to conduct a more thorough investigation into Morens.

“If the allegations regarding Dr. Shimabukuro’s mishandling of agency records are true,” Johnson warned, “then it will certainly raise questions about the effectiveness of the HHS OIG’s oversight and cast doubt on whether the HHS OIG actually did what I asked it to do nineteen months ago.” (CDC doctor monitoring COVID vaccine reactions may have deleted files: Sen. Ron Johnson.)

Perhaps Dr. Tom Shimabukuro’s deleted files have gone on vacation with those of former First Lady/former United States Senator from New York by way of Arkansas/and former United States Secretary of State Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton or with the missing records showing how the Biden White House and the Ministry of Injustice under Merrick Garland coordinated efforts with Alvin Bragg and Fani Willis to use lawfare against former President Donald John Trump.

It is certainly the case, however, that forty-fifth and forty-seventh president’s refusal to see the truth about the vaccines is one of the few instances where he stood united with his predecessor, the addle-brained Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., whose Department of Defense suppressed information about how seven member of United States armed forces contracted symptoms similar to the Wuhan Virus  before the infamous “leak” from the Wuhan Institute of Technology in December of 2019:

A 2022 Defense Department report long withheld by the Biden administration has recently surfaced and reveals that seven U.S. service members showed COVID-19-like symptoms after having competed in the World Military Games in Wuhan, China, months before the deadly virus first broke out in the U.S.

The explosive disclosure suggests that the virus was circulating in Wuhan months before China disclosed it to the world in December 2019. The games took place in October 2019, two months earlier. 

It also challenges the Biden administration’s public claims in 2021 that there was no evidence that any American participants contracted the virus at those games. The CIA, FBI and Energy Department have all now suggested that the COVID-19 virus pandemic may have originated via a lab leak from the city’s Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The 2022 report was legally required to be released publicly online more than two years ago "in a searchable format," but it only became available some time in late March, when the Trump administration uploaded it to a Defense Department website, The Washington Free Beacon reported. 

The outlet reported that the Biden administration did send copies of the report to the House and Senate Armed Services Committees in December 2022, but the report was never made available online by the administration. 

The report found that of the 263 U.S. delegation that traveled to the event, seven U.S. members showed COVID-19-like symptoms between Oct. 18, 2019, and Jan. 21, 2020. All symptoms were resolved within six days and could be attributed to other respiratory illnesses​.

The report also found that there were no significant outbreaks of COVID-19-like symptoms at Defense Department facilities after the athletes returned, although service members were not tested for COVID-19 or antibodies as testing was not available at that early stage of the pandemic.

However, Washington was one of the earliest states to show a spike in COVID-19, and the U.S. team used chartered flights to and from the games via Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Prospect reported.

Then-Pentagon spokesperson John Kirby told The Washington Post in June 2021 that the military had "no knowledge" of any COVID-19 infections among the troops that participated in those games.

Other international athletes reported having come down with COVID-19-like symptoms, the Daily Mail reported in June 2021. 

The games have long been suspected as being a "super spreader" event which took place close to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The U.S.-based EcoHealth Alliance, partially funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health was conducting gain of function research there. 

"Many of the athletes said ​Wuhan looked like a ‘ghost town’ in October‚ two months before China reported the first case of coronavirus there," the New York Post reported.

Former Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., in 2021 said that those months were critical and could have helped the United States understand the disease and "shut down travel earlier in order to stop the spread and ultimately save potentially millions of lives." (Biden-era report provides new clues on COVID outbreak timeline in Wuhan.)

Here is a standard rule of thumb: Most of those in government, whether elected or appointed, lie, and most of them lie all the time. This is really nothing new as most modern warfare has gained whatever popular support it had at the time of its outbreak by the clever psychological manipulation of the people, something that Mrs. Randy Engel noted in her important four-part series: Covid-19 and the Art of Brainwashing – Part I | AKA Catholic, Covid-19 and the Art of Brainwashing – Part II, Part III, and  Part IV.

Although President Donald John Trump, whose continued support of the ongoing Zionist Israeli genocidal “ethnic cleansing” in Gaza is as detached from historical fact and the reality of the situation at this time as his continued self-delusion about the “vaccines,” is wrong about many things, he has at least authorized a page on the White House website that provides factual documentation for Wuhan Virus originating at the Wuhan Institute of Virology where “gain-of function” research was being undertaken with the laundered taxpayer-provided support of the nefarious Anthony Fauci, whose steadfast denial of this fact and his equally steadfast endorsement of the poisoned jabs and against early intervention treatments with patients who contracted the Wuhan Virus marks him as one of the worst statist villains in American history, through his friends at Eco Health Alliance:

EcoHealth — under the leadership of Dr. Peter Daszak — used U.S. taxpayer dollars to facilitate dangerous gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China. After the Select Subcommittee released evidence of EcoHealth violating the terms of its National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) commenced official debarment proceedings and suspended all funding to EcoHealth.

New evidence also shows that the Department of Justice (DOJ) has opened an investigation into EcoHealth’s pandemic-era activities.

NIH FAILURES:

NIH’s procedures for funding and overseeing potentially dangerous research are deficient, unreliable, and pose a serious threat to both public health and national security. Further, NIH fostered an environment that promoted evading federal record keeping laws — as seen through the actions of Dr. David Morens and “FOIA Lady” Marge Moore.

HHS OBSTRUCTION:

The Biden Administration’s HHS engaged in a multi-year campaign of delay, confusion, and non-responsiveness in an attempt to obstruct the Select Subcommittee’s investigation and hide evidence that could incriminate or embarrass senior public health officials. It appears that HHS even intentionally under-resourced its component that responds to legislative oversight requests.

ECOHEALTH OBSTRUCTION:

EcoHealth President Dr. Peter Daszak obstructed the Select Subcommittee’s investigation by providing publicly available information, instructing his staff to reduce the scope and pace of productions, and doctoring documents before releasing them to the public. Further, Dr. Daszak provided false statements to Congress.

DR. DAVID MORENS:

Dr. Fauci’s Senior Advisor, Dr. David Morens, deliberately obstructed the Select Subcommittee’s investigation, likely lied to Congress on multiple occasions, unlawfully deleted federal COVID-19 records, and shared nonpublic information about NIH grant processes with EcoHealth President Dr. Peter Daszak.

NEW YORK OBSTRUCTION:

New York’s Executive Chamber — led presently by Governor Kathy Hochul — redacted documents, offered numerous illegitimate privilege claims, and withheld thousands of documents without an apparent legal basis to obstruct the Select Subcommittee’s investigation into former Governor Cuomo’s pandemic-era failures.

WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO):

The WHO’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was an abject failure because it caved to pressure from the Chinese Communist Party and placed China’s political interests ahead of its international duties. Further, the WHO’s newest effort to solve the problems exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic — via a “Pandemic Treaty” — may harm the United States.

SOCIAL DISTANCING:

The “6 feet apart” social distancing recommendation — which shut down schools and small business across the country — was arbitrary and not based on science. During closed door testimony, Dr. Fauci testified that the guidance “sort of just appeared.”

MASK MANDATES:

There was no conclusive evidence that masks effectively protected Americans from COVID-19. Public health officials flipped-flopped on the efficacy of masks without providing Americans scientific data — causing a massive uptick in public distrust.

LOCKDOWNS:

Prolonged lockdowns caused immeasurable harm to not only the American economy, but also to the mental and physical health of Americans, with a particularly negative effect on younger citizens. Rather than prioritizing the protection of the most vulnerable populations, federal and state government policies forced millions of Americans to forgo crucial elements of a healthy and financially sound life.

NEW YORK PANDEMIC FAILURES:

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s March 25 Order — which forced nursing homes to accept COVID-19 positive patients — “was medical malpractice.” Evidence shows that Mr. Cuomo and his Administration worked to cover up the tragic aftermath of their policy decisions in an apparent effort to shield themselves from accountability.

COVID-19 MISINFORMATION:

Public health officials often  mislead the American people  through conflicting messaging, knee-jerk reactions, and a lack of transparency.  Most egregiously,  the federal government demonized alternative treatments and disfavored narratives, such as the lab leak theory,  in a shameful effort to coerce and control the American people’s health decisions. 

When those efforts failed, the Biden Administration resorted to “outright censorship—coercing and colluding with the world’s largest social media companies to censor all COVID-19-related dissent.” (Lab Leak: The True Origins of Covid-19 – The White House.)

This all quite true but there is one itsy-bitsy little problem with the outlining of these indisputable facts: The forty-fifth President of the United States of America, who is now the forty-seventh President of the United States of America, endorsed the lockdowns to “bend the curve” (his words) as he gave the propagandist Anthony “I am the science” Fauci full and unfettered rein to discourage early intervention, had the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issue one-size-fit-all cookie-cutter “protocols for the treatment of Wuhan Virus that wound up killing many people who could have been helped had their physicians been able to use Ivermectin and follow such flexible protocols as the McCullough Protocol that relied upon the specifics of a patient’s particular health history and upon the combined use of pharmaceutical products, including hydroxychloroquine, with massive doses of Zinc, Vitamins C and D, and various natural supplements. While Trump only occasionally wore a mask with the presidential seal embossed on it, het stood by Fauci’s recommendations about using masks, which did nothing to stop the spread of the virus but did plenty to further dehumanize people and to cleverly those who refused to wear masks from the “civically virtuous” who did. The transformation of many states into veritable laboratories of Communist-style social control and repression took place because the forty-fifth president empowered Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx to mandate what they wanted. Trump even gave Fauci the Presidential Medal of Freedom before he left office reluctantly on January 20, 2021.

In addition to the origins of the Wuhan Virus from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which was first reported on this website when citing an interview Dr. Francis Boyle, a professor of International Law the University of Illinois Law School in Urbana, Illinois, gave to Geopolitics and Empire magazine that was reprinted in Mr. Rod Pead’s Christian Order in February 2020 (see Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus, part two, revised), new studies indicate that, as reported on this site throughout 2020 into 2021, the numbers of deaths that were attributed to the Wuhan Virus were vastly inflated to increase fear among the populace as hospitals in the United States of America were given up to $50,000 for each report Wuhan Virus death, thus incentivizing actual honest-to-goodness disinformation and not such as called by the Biden administration, whose officials regularly lied when terming truth as “disinformation” in the most Orwellian manner possible.

 Indeed, many people who contracted the virus died of entirely different causes. This happened in the United States of America and elsewhere around the world, including in Greece:

Hospitals in Athens, Greece, incorrectly attributed hundreds of deaths to COVID-19, according to a peer-reviewed study published Monday in Scientific Reports.

A team of 19 Greek doctors and researchers studying 530 deaths that occurred in seven Athens hospitals between January and August 2022, found nearly half of the deaths attributed to COVID-19 were unrelated to the virus.

Researchers determined the virus was directly responsible for only a quarter — 133, or 25.1% — of the deaths.

In an additional 157 (29.6%) cases, COVID-19 “contributed to the chain of events leading to death” — for a total of 290 deaths “from” COVID-19.

Another 240 (45.3%) deaths occurred among people “with” COVID-19, but the deaths could not be directly attributed to the virus.

Karl Jablonowski, Ph.D., senior research scientist for Children’s Health Defense, highlighted another key outcome of the study not mentioned in the text, but found in an accompanying table.

According to Jablonowski, among the 288 deaths of people whose vaccination status was known, and who died “from” COVID-19, more than half — 53.8%, or 155 — were vaccinated, either fully or boosted.

“Of the vaccinated who died ‘from’ COVID-19, 65.8% (102 of 155) were boosted,” he said.

The study also identified:

• Inaccuracies on patients’ death certificates contributed to an overcount of COVID-19 deaths.
• Misclassification of hospital-acquired infections, particularly among younger patients.
• Significant differences in treatment among patients who died “from” or “with” COVID-19.

Public health physician and biotech consultant Dr. David Bell said the study reinforces what has been known since early 2020 and shown in other studies.

“The significance is that a Nature journal published it, indicating some return by this company to valuing truth over strictly business requirements,” Bell said.

Springer Nature, the publisher of Scientific Reports, is the world’s largest academic publisher.

“That the official reporting of death rates is that inflated, that far into the pandemic, strongly suggests the over-reporting was intentional,” said internal medicine physician Dr. Clayton J. Baker.

Other key findings of the study included:

• Patients who died “with” COVID-19 were younger on average and were more likely to be immunosuppressed and suffering from serious conditions, such as end-stage liver disease or solid organ malignancy.
• Patients who died “from” COVID-19 were more likely to be older, to have been admitted to an infectious disease ward, to have symptoms “compatible with COVID-19” such as hypoxia and shortness of breath, and to have received oxygen support or “COVID-19-specific treatment,” including administration of remdesivir.
• Out of the 204 death certificates that listed COVID-19 as the patients’ direct cause of death, this was confirmed as true in only 132 (64.7%) of the cases following clinical review.
• Of the 324 death certificates listing COVID-19 as a contributing factor in the patients’ deaths, this was confirmed in only 86 (26.5%) of cases after clinical review.
• Patients who were infected with COVID-19 during their hospitalization had a 130% (odds ratio of 2.3) higher likelihood of being misclassified as having died “from” COVID-19.

‘Reasonable to conclude’ COVID death counts were ‘artificially inflated’

The researchers reviewed the chart files and the clinical and laboratory data, and conducted interviews with the physician who cared for the study subjects before they died.

Epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher said he believes the study is methodologically sound.

“Unlike most studies relying on administrative coding, this investigation conducted a comprehensive clinical audit — combining full chart reviews, direct interviews with attending physicians and independent adjudication by expert reviewers,” Hulscher said.

The researchers said they chose to study deaths that occurred during the “Omicron wave” because the “higher infectivity and lower morbidity of the new variant, associated with lower risks of COVID-19-related hospitalization and death,” made it plausible that deaths “from” COVID-19 would be overcounted.

The authors also noted that, in Greece, any death occurring in a patient who tested positive for COVID-19 at the time of death was officially classified as a COVID-19-associated death.

Hulscher said this was common practice across many countries.

“Given that similar death coding practices were employed across Western nations, it is reasonable to conclude that COVID-19 death counts were artificially inflated to a comparable degree elsewhere,” Hulscher said.

Bell attributed this practice to the financial and other incentives governments provided to hospitals.

“There was a financial desire to make a lot of money from rapidly developed mRNA vaccines and to set a precedent for this in the future,” Bell said. “As infections from SARS-CoV-2 virus were generally quite mild, it was necessary to scare people into thinking COVID-19 was far more severe, and far more prevalent, than it actually was.”

Jablonowski said the study’s results show that public health decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic were guided by fear instead of scientific or medical criteria.

“There was a fog that settled over mainstream media during the time … That fog invariably erred on the side of fear, leading to fear-based decisions being favored over rational decisions.”

According to Jablonowski, this fear led to a series of harms for society at large.

“Regardless of what the intention was behind the over-exaggeration of COVID-19 deaths, the consequences led us down the wrong path … We isolated with closed doors and mask coverings. We administered experimental drugs and experimental vaccines. Our hospitals became places of harm,” Jablonowski said. (Nearly Half of ‘COVID Deaths’ Not Caused by the Virus, Researchers Find.)

Those who think nothing of First and Last Things and who do not fear the just judgment of Christ the King upon their immortal souls when they die will never blush with any kind of shame when they lie for profit, power and/or prestige. The rank amorality of Niccolo Machiavelli and the utilitarianism of John Stuart Mill and Jeremy Bentham rules the day in what passes for “global health care” in all too many instances, and we must never forget that what were once institutions of mercy have become institutionalized practitioners of death by means of their participation in the chemical and surgical execution of the innocent preborn, an adherence to the medical industry’s manufactured, money-making myth of “brain death” to human vivisection of vital bodily organs for use in organ transplantation surgeries, the regular starvation and dehydration of innocent human beings said to be “brain damaged” (see, for example, No Human Being Is A Vegetable, Twenty Years Later: The Court Ordered Execution of Mrs. Theresa Marie Schindler-Schiavo, Chronicling the Adversary's Global Takeover of the Healthcare Industry, and Life, Death, and Truth: Under Attack by Medicine and Law), and “palliative care”/hospice, which is infused into the very fabric of the healthcare system as physicians, physician assistants, nurses, and nurse practitioners are trained to subjectively evaluate patients according to a “quality of life” standard that could result in the prescription of pharmaceutical products designed to “ease” one who is adjudged to have “substandard” quality of life without his even knowing what is happening.

Over and above, the harm that has been and continues to be done by the Wuhan Virus “vaccines,” there is also the very real phenomenon of death panels in hospitals around the world, including the State of Texas, something that has been discussed several times on this site, including in Medically Induced and Judicially Sanctioned Sorrow, and has happened recently there:

(LifeSiteNews) — A hospital’s death panel will determine if a baby girl in their care will continue to receive life-sustaining care or die from neglect.

Elaine Wren, born March 10, 2025, is living with an oscillator, a breathing apparatus for infants, in a North Texas hospital. However, her hospital may stop giving her this life-sustaining treatment against her parent’s wishes.

According to the Texas Right to Life, the baby’s parents has turned to them for help. It is calling on the public for “healing for Baby Wren; the hospital to provide the tracheostomy and feeding tube necessary” for her transfer to another hospital; “another medical facility to accept Baby Wren” and “peace and discernment for Wrens family as they advocate for her.”

The Texas Advance Directives Act, also known as the 25-Day Rule, makes withdrawal of life-sustaining care legal. Enshrined into law in 1999, the 25-Day Rule has made it legal for hospital committees to decide to withdraw treatment from their patients for any reason, including a negative assessment of their “quality of life.

According to the Texas Right to Life, the hospital “can then remove treatment, even life-sustaining treatment (ventilator, dialysis, etc.), and the patient cannot appeal the decision. Even if the patient is conscious, coherent, and actively requesting the continuation of life-sustaining treatment, the 25-Day Rule gives the hospital the power to overrule the patient’s wishes.” The patient then has 25 days to find another hospital that will offer him or her the treatment. In some circumstances, this is reduced to 10 days.

The committee ruling in the case of Wren is scheduled to make a decision at a meeting on Wednesday, April 16. 

Sadly, the threat to Elaine Wren’s young life is not without precedence. In the United Kingdom, Charlie Gard, Alfie Evans, Indi Gregory, Isaiah Haastrup, and Alta Fixsler are only 5 examples of infants whose parents made unsuccessful court bids to stop hospitals from withdrawing their life-supporting treatment and to transfer the children to hospitals that would treat them. (Tafida Raqeeb, a 5-year-old who suffered a brain injury, is a rare example of a British child who was allowed to live and leave the country for treatment.)

Less well known are American children like the 13-year-old Jahi McMath, who was permitted by courts to continue to receive life support, and Sun Hudson, a little boy born in Houston Texas 2004 with a serious form of dwarfism. The hospital’s death panel determined that Sun could not live very long and gave his mother just 10 days to find another hospital to maintain him on lie support. She failed to do so and, following stays of execution, Sun died of asphyxiation. This is believed to be the first time an American hospital removed someone’s life support without his own advance directive and against the wishes of his guardian. (Texas hospital may end baby’s life against parents’ wishes.)

I can find no further news about what has happened in Elaine Wren’s case. The hospital’s death panel was supposed to have “decided” what to do on Spy Wednesday, April 16, 2025, but I can find no further information. It is a tragedy that such cases occur at all. However, that they do is but one of the many evil consequences of the decriminalization and widespread acceptance of the daily slaughter of the innocent preborn by chemical and/or surgical means, and it is this genocide of the innocent that has, as many predicted in the 1960s and even earlier than that, made active euthanasia an institutionalized reality in Canada, The Netherlands, Belgium, and elsewhere across the so-called “civilized world” where “healthcare professionals” in white coats and blue surgical smocks smugly dispatch innocent human beings with a ready abandon worthy of the eugenicists of the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich:

A new report indicates a staggering 60 percent rise in Dutch euthanasia cases for “psychological suffering” – mental illness. The report indicates a 10 percent overall rise in the euthanasia rate from 2023 to 2024, with nearly 10,000 Dutch people dying by euthanasia last year. 

As Yuan Yi Zhu noted in Unherd, in 2024, the Netherlands reported 219 cases of euthanasia for “psychological suffering,” as opposed to only two cases in 2010. “Of the 219, 30 were for patients aged 18-39,” Zhu noted. “An unspecified number of minors were also euthanized.” 

The number was unspecified, but there are a few specifics. One boy between the ages of 16 and 18 was euthanized for autism. “The psychiatrists decided that his condition was untreatable, despite not having tried all available therapeutic models, and thought he might attempt suicide again if his application for euthanasia was not granted,” Zhu writes. “A doctor also concluded that his wish to be euthanised did not stem from his autism but instead from the suffering caused by the consequences of autism, which some may consider a distinction without a difference.”  

Another woman with OCD was euthanized because an injury prevented her from cleaning. 

The Netherlands, which legalized euthanasia in 2002, has been heading in this direction for some time. On October 7, 2013, the Daily Mail reported that a Dutch woman had been killed by medics via lethal injection because she feared she could not cope with becoming blind. One of the health specialists analyzing her case insisted that it was an exceptional because, “She was, for example, obsessed by cleanliness and could not stand being unable to see spots on her clothes.” 

In 2014, the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition described how the Dutch media had reported another death: 

A physically healthy man of 63 who was working for a government institution, died by euthanasia. This man had been treated for a long time for depression, but the treatment didn’t work out. According to psychiatrist Gerty Casteelen this man decided that he wanted to die. The night before his death, he gave a farewell reception for his colleagues. The day after, Casteelen went to his house and gave him a lethal injection.

In 2015, an 80-year-old woman was killed by euthanasia against the wishes of her caretakers at the nursing home Ter Reede, where she resided. Her family had petitioned a Dutch court to approve her death, which she could not consent to, due to purportedly suffering from some form of dementia. Her family claimed she would have wanted death, and, despite strong opposition from the management of the nursing home, medical practitioners, and the woman’s doctor, an Utrecht judge agreed.

In 2015, a Dutch euthanasia clinic was reprimanded for euthanizing a healthy 47-year-old woman who said that a ringing in her ears – a condition known as tinnitus – was unbearable. 

Despite this track record, the latest report has caused some concern, and RTE – the regional euthanasia review committee – stated that physicians must exercise “great caution” with psychiatric conditions. Indeed, the Guardian reported that “six deaths by euthanasia in 2024 were judged by the RTE to have lacked due care,” including the woman who was euthanized for the suffering caused by her OCD, and noted that “some experts are concerned, especially regarding younger people.” 

“Although the absolute numbers are still low, there is a recent, enormous increase in requests and euthanasia performed in patients with psychological complaints, especially in young people under 30,” said Damiaan Denys, a professor of psychiatry at Amsterdam University Medical Center. 

“This is controversial because it is unclear whether young people at that age can meet the due diligence criteria. How can one, at that age, determine with certainty that a young person with a still-developing brain definitely wants to die, that life is experienced as hopeless and without prospects and that all treatments have already been carried out?” 

The fact that Denys believes Dutch euthanasia numbers are low is an indication of how accustomed to the practice he has become – but lawmakers in the U.K. and Canada should be looking at the rise in young people opting for euthanasia for mental health reasons with enormous alarm. (Dutch euthanasia for mental illness surges 60%, including teen with autism.)

This is all so very monstrous that words must necessarily fail, but open euthanasia is but a consequence not only of the global genocide of the preborn but the institutionalization of “palliative care,” which is nothing other than a euphemized form of euthanasia. Sometimes, however, even the disguised euthanasia that is “hospice”/palliative care is not enough for those intent on depopulating the globe and/or showing “mercy” on the suffering or those said to be “useless.” A physician in the Federal Republic of Germany stands accused of killing off patients in home “hospice care” even though such “care” almost always results in the deaths of those taking the designer “cocktails” that are meant to deprive victims of their rationality and consciousness as the pretext for convincing relatives that loved one’s time has “come.”

Here is a report about the case in Germany:

A doctor in Berlin has been charged with murder over the deaths of 15 patients under palliative care, prosecutors said Wednesday. He is also accused of trying to cover up the evidence by starting fires in their homes.

The doctor was part of a nursing service’s end-of-life care team and was initially suspected in the deaths of just four patients.

That number has crept higher since last summer, and investigators now say they’ve found evidence linking him to the deaths of 15 people between September 22, 2021, and July 24 last year.

The drug cocktail then allegedly paralyzed the respiratory muscles. Respiratory arrest and death followed within minutes, prosecutors said.

The doctor — a 40-year-old man named as Johannes M., according to The Times of London — has been in custody since Aug. 6. Prosecutors said Wednesday that he has not yet responded to the case against him.

Murder charges carry a maximum sentence of life in prison.

Prosecutors said they aim to ask the court to establish that the suspect bears particularly severe guilt, meaning that he wouldn’t be eligible for release after 15 years, as is usually the case in Germany. They also want him to be banned from his profession for life. (A Berlin doctor has been charged with the killings of 15 patients under palliative care.)

As terrible as this is, of course, I fail to see the difference between what Dr. Johannes M. stands accused of doing and what is being done by almost all but a handful of Catholics involved in “palliative care”/hospice as everyone who takes plot on this disguised form of euthanasia should be in jail, and so should any cleric who encourages people to make use of this effort to kill people under the false aegis of “mercy,” “compassion,” and death with dignity.”

Monsters in white coats still walk amongst us, each of whom is allied, at least ideologically if not formally, with the “global reset” agenda of Big Pharma and the nongovernmental organizations that want to depopulate the earth in order to “save” the planet, and they are empowered by judges in black robes, “opinion-makers,” and most everyone who holds positions of public trust, whether elected or appointed, no matter whether they belong to the false opposites of the naturalist “left” or “right” and whatever else is in between.

The antidote to this madness is the conversion of men and their nations to the true Faith, without which no one can save their souls and without which there is no chance of restoring sanity in every aspect of human life, including in the practice of medicine, which must be conducted according to the binding precepts of the Divine Positive Law and the Natural Law in accord with the findings of actual scientific facts and not ideological myths that have been created, fostered, and institutionalized by the adversary and his minions. We must see the Divine impress in all others, and those in the medical profession have a duty to preserve, not end, innocent human life according to the binding precepts of the Divine and Natural Laws as they apply genuine medical knowledge, including a respect for methods of naturopathic healing and prevention, to each patient according to his own specific needs and not on the basis of the imposition of rigid protcols that make no provision for the individuality of human beings and their own specific case histories.

For this, of course, we need the help of Our Lady, especially by means of her Most Holy Rosary, which we must pray while truly meditating upon the mysteries contained therein while offering ourselves freely to her in all that we do as the consecrated slaves of her Divine Son, Christ the King, Our Risen Saviour, Who has made it possible for us see beyond this mortal vale of tears and to focus first, last, and always on the hope of an unending Easter Sunday of glory in the Beatific Vision of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost for all eternity in Heaven.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

On the Transferred Feast of Saint Mark the Evangelist

Today, Monday, April 25, 2025, is the Transferred Feast of Saint Mark the Evangelist as well as the Commemorations of Saint Paul of the Cross and Saint Vitalis. Today is also, in some places, the feasts of Saint Louis de Montfort and Saint Peter Chanel, the patron saint of Oceania.

Dom Prosper Gueranger provided us with a detailed hagiography of the Lion, Saint Mark the Evangelist, reminder us that is truly the case that the Gospel according to Saint Mark is truly the Gospel of our first pope, Saint Peter:

The Cycle of holy mother Church brings before us today, the Lion, who, together with the Man, the Ox and the Eagle, stands before the Throne of God. (Ezechiel 1:10) It was on this day, that Mark ascended from earth to heaven, radiant with his triple aureole of Evangelist, Apostle, and Martyr.

As the preaching made to Israel had its four great representatives, — Isaias, Jeremias, Ezechiel, and Daniel; so, likewise, would God have the New Covenant to be embodied in the four Gospels, which were to make known to the world the Life and teachings of his divine Son. The Holy Fathers tell us, that the Gospels are like the four streams which watered the Garden of pleasure, (Genesis 2:10) and that this Garden was a figure of the future Church. The first of the Evangelists, — the first to register the actions and words of our Redeemer, — is Matthew, whose star will rise in September; the second is Mark, whose brightness gladdens us today; the third is Luke, whose rays will shine upon us in October; the fourth is John, whom we have already seen in Bethlehem, at the Crib of our Emmanuel.

Mark was the beloved disciple of Peter; he was the brilliant satellite of the Sun of the Church. He wrote his Gospel at Rome, under the eyes of the Prince of the Apostles. The Church was already in possession of the history given by Matthew; but the Faithful of Rome wished their own Apostle to narrate what he had witnessed. Peter refused to write it himself, but he bade his disciple take up his pen, and the Holy Ghost guided the hand of the new Evangelist. Mark follows the account given by Matthew; he abridges it, and yet he occasionally adds a word, or an incident, which plainly prove to us that Peter, who had seen and heard all, was his living and venerated authority. One would have almost expected, that the new Evangelist would pass over in silence the history of his master’s fall, or,, at least, have said as little as possible about it but no, — the Gospel written by Mark is more detailed on Peter’s denial than is that of Matthew; and as we read it, we cannot help feeling, that the tears, elicited by Jesus’ look, when in the house of Caiphas, were flowing down the Apostle’s cheeks, as he described the sad event. Mark’s work being finished, Peter examined it and gave it his sanction the several Churches joyfully received this second account of the mysteries of the world’s redemption, and the name of Mark was made known throughout the whole earth.

Matthew begins his Gospel with the human genealogy of the Son of God, and has thus realized the prophetic type of the Man; Mark fulfills that of the Lion, for he commences with the preaching of John the Baptist, whose office as precursor of the Messias, had been foretold by Isaias, where he spoke of the voice of one crying in the wilderness, — as the Lion that makes the desert echo with his roar.

Mark having written his Gospel, was next to labor as an Apostle. Peter sent him, first, to Aquileia, where he founded an important Church but this was not enough for an Evangelist. When the time designed by God came, and Egypt, — the source of countless errors, — was to receive the truth, and the haughty and noisy Alexandria was to be raised to the dignity of the second Church of Christendom — the second See of Peter — Mark was sent by his master to effect this great work. By his preaching, the word of salvation took root, grew up, and produced fruit in that most infidel of nations; and the authority of Peter was thus marked, though in different degrees, in the three great Cities of the Empire: Rome, Alexandria and Antioch.

St Mark may be called the first founder of the Monastic life, by his instituting, in Alexandria itself, what were called the Therapeutes. To him, also, may be justly attributed, the origin of that celebrated Christian school, of Alexandria, which was so flourishing, even in the 2nd Century.

But glorious as were these works of Peter’s disciple, — the Evangelist and Apostle Mark was also to receive the dignity of Martyr. The success of his preaching excited against him the fury of the idolaters. They were keeping a feast in honor of Serapis; and this gave them an opportunity which they were not likely to lose. They seized Mark, treated him most cruelly, and cast him into prison. It was there that our Risen Lord appeared to him, during the night, and addressed him in these words, which afterwards formed the Arms of the Republic of Venice “Peace be to thee, Mark, my Evangelist!” To which the disciple answered: “Lord” — for such were his feelings of delight and gratitude, that he could say but that one word, as it was with Magdalene, when she saw Jesus on the morning of the Resurrection. On the following day, Mark was put to death by the pagans. He had fulfilled his mission on earth, and heaven opened to receive the Lion, who was to occupy near the throne of the Ancient of days the place allotted to him, as shown to the Prophet of Patmos, in his sublime vision. (Apocalypse 4)

In the 9th Century, the West was enriched with the Relics of St. Mark. They were taken to Venice; and, under the protection of the sacred Lion, there began for that City a long period of glory. Faith in so great a Patron achieved wonders; and from the midst of islets and lagoons there sprang into existence a City of beauty and power. Byzantine Art raised up the imposing and gorgeous Church, which was the palladium of the Queen of the Seas; and the new Republic stamped its coinage with the Lion of St. Mark. Happy would it have been for Venice, had she persevered in her loyalty to Rome, and in the ancient severity of her morals! . . .

Thou, O Mark, art the mystic Lion, who, with the Man, the Ox and the Eagle, art yoked to the chariot whereon the King of kings pursues his triumphant course through the earth. Ezechiel, the prophet of the Ancient Testament, and John, the prophet of the New Law, saw thee standing nigh the throne of Jehovah. How magnificent is thy glory! Thou art the historian of the Word made Flesh, and thou publishest to all generations his claims to the love and adoration of mankind. The Church reveres thy writings, and bids us receive them as inspired by the Holy Ghost.

It was thou that, on the glad day of Easter, didst announce to us the Resurrection of our Lord: pray for us, O holy Evangelist, that this divine mystery may work its effect within us; and that our hearts, like thine own, may be firm in their love of our Risen Jesus, that so we may faithfully follow in him that new life which he gave us by his Resurrection. Ask him to give us his peace, as he did to his Apostles when he showed himself to them in the Cenacle, and as he did to thee when he appeared to thee in thy prison.

Thou wast the beloved disciple of Peter; Rome was honored by thy presence: pray for the successor of Peter, thy master; pray for the Church of Rome, against which the wildest storm is now venting its fury. Pray to the Lion of the Tribe of Juda: he seems to sleep; and yet we know that he has but to show himself, and the victory is gained.

Apostle of Egypt! what has become of thy flourishing Church of Alexandria, Peter’s second see, the hallowed scene of thy martyrdom? Its very ruins have perished. The scorching blast of heresy made Egypt a waste, and God, in his anger, let loose upon her the torrent of Mahometanism. Twelve centuries have passed since then, and she is still a slave to error and tyranny: is it to be thus with her till the coming of the Judge? Pray, we beseech thee, for the countries thou didst so zealously evangelize, but whose deserts are now the image of her loss of faith.

And can Venice be forgotten by thee, who art her dearest patron? Her people still call themselves thine for the faith; bless her with prosperity; obtain for her that she may be purified by her trials, and return to the God who had chastised her in his justice. A nation that is loyal to the Church must prosper: let Venice, then, return to her former fidelity to Rome, and who knows but that the sovereign Ruler of the world, being appeased by thy powerful intercession, may make thy Venice what she was before she rebelled against the Holy See, and tarnished the glories she won at Lepanto! (Dom Prosper Gueranger, O.S.B., The Liturgical Year, Feast of Saint Mark, April 25.)

Appendix B

From Dom Prosper Gueranger on the Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross 

Splendidly adorned with the sacred sign of the Passion, Paul of the Cross comes today to pay homage to the Conqueror of Death. It behooved Christ to suffer and so enter into his glory. It behooves the Christian, the member of Christ, to follow his Head in suffering that he may share his triumph. Even as a child Paul penetrated deeply into the ineffable mystery of the suffering of a God. He was filled with an ardent love for the cross and ran with giant strides along this royal road. He passed through the torrent, following his divine Head, he was buried with him in death, and has won a share in his Resurrection.

The diminution of truths among the children of men seemed to have dried up the fount of sanctity, when Italy, ever fruitful in her vivid faith, gave birth to the Christian hero, who stands out in the arid waste of the eighteenth century, like a saint of olden times. God never deserts his Church. He confronts a century of revolt and sensualism veiled under the name of philosophy with the Cross of his Son. A new Paul, recalling both in his name and his works the great Apostle of the Gentiles, rises in the midst of a generation intoxicated with pride and falsehood, to whom the Cross has become once more a folly and a scandal. This apostle was weak, poor, isolated and long misunderstood, but his heart was full of love and self-abnegation, and he sought to put to confusion the wisdom of sages and the prudence of prudent men. Clad in a coarse habit, with bare feet, his head crowned with thorns and a heavy cross on his shoulder, he journeyed through cities, claiming the attention of both the humble and the mighty, and desiring to know nothing but Jesus Crucified. The Cross made his zeal fruitful and showed itself to be indeed the power and the wisdom of God. Those who prided themselves on having banished the miraculous from history and the supernatural from the life of the people, might exult in their triumph, but, unknown to them, wonderful prodigies, countless miracles, were making whole peoples submissive to the voice of this man who, by completely destroying sin in his own person, had regained the power which Adam once had over nature, and seemed to possess in his mortal flesh the qualities of a glorified body.

But the apostolate of the Cross was not to end with Paul’s death. The resources of ancient times were no longer sufficient for a decrepit age. We are far from the days when the exquisite delicacy of Christian sentiment was strongly moved by the sight of the cross amid flowers, as it is seen in the paintings of the catacombs. Man’s senses have been dulled by unhealthy emotions, and there is need of a stimulant in the form of a constant representation of the tears, the Blood, and the gaping wounds of our divine Redeemer. Paul of the Cross received the mission to supply this need. At the cost of unspeakable sufferings he became the father of a new religious family, which adds to the three ordinary vows of religion a fourth vow—to propagate devotion to the sacred Passion of our Lord, the badge of which each Religious wears visibly on his breast.

We must not forget that the Passion of our Lord is for the Christian soul only a preparation for the great mystery of the Pasch, the glorious term of the manifestations of the Word, the supreme end of the elect, whose piety finds therein its completion and its crown. The Holy Spirit, who guides the Church throughout the admirable course of the liturgical cycle, has no other and in view for the souls who abandon themselves unreservedly to his sanctifying power. Paul’s desire was to be nailed to the cross on Calvary, but he was often carried thence to the heights of heaven where he heard mysterious words such as it is not granted to man to utter. (2 Corinthians 12:4) He assisted at the triumph of the Son of Man who, after having lived on earth a mortal life and passed through death, is living now forever and ever. (Apocalypse 1:18) He saw on the throne of God the Lamb standing as though slain, and giving light to the heavenly city, (Apocalypse 21:23) and this sublime vision of the realities of heaven inspired him with that divine enthusiasm, that intoxication of love, which, in spite of his terrifying austerities, gives an incomparable charm to his whole person. “Fear not,” he said to his children who were terrified by the furious attacks of the Devil, “fear not, cry ‘Alleluia.’ The devil is afraid of the Alleluia; it is a word that comes from Paradise.” He could not restrain his feelings when he saw nature born again with her Savior in these days of spring, the flowers blossoming under the steps of his Risen Lord, the birds celebrating his victory in their harmonious songs. His heart was full to overflowing with love and poetry; he touched the flowers gently with his stick and upbraided them, saying “Hold your peace, hold your peace. To whom do these lands belong?” he said one day to a companion, “to whom do these lands belong, I say? You do not understand. They belong to our great God.” And his biographer relates that he was rapt in an ecstasy of love and carried some distance through the air. “Love God, my brethren,” he repeated to all those whom he met, “love God, who so well deserves our love. Do you not hear the very leaves on the trees telling you to love God? O love of God, love of God!”

We yield to the charm of a sanctity which is so sweet and yet so strong. It is a divine attraction, such as could never be exercised by the false spirituality, so much in vogue in the eighteenth century, even among the holiest. Under pretext of subduing man’s evil nature and avoiding possible excesses, the new teachers allied themselves, though unwittingly, with Jansenism, checked the flight of the soul, disciplined it, remade it according to their own fashion, and confined it within the limits of certain rules which were supposed to lead all souls to perfection at the same rate. But saints are made by the divine Spirit, the spirit of love and holiness, to whose essence liberty belongs. He does not confine himself within the bounds of human methods. Our Lord says: “The Spirit breatheth where he will … but thou knowest not whence he cometh and whither he goeth. So is every one that is born of the Spirit.” (John 3:8) The Holy Ghost chose Paul in his earliest infancy. He took possession of this child, so richly endowed by nature, destroyed nothing and sanctified everything. He formed him according to ancient models, always ardent, always attractive, and exceedingly holy. Such a one could never have been produced by a school whose over-correct methods wear the soul out by a barren and self-centered asceticism. (Dom Prosper Gueranger, O.S.B. The Liturgical Year, Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross, April 28.)

Herewith is the account of Saint Paul of the Cross's glorious life in service of the Passion of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ  as found in the readings for Matins in the Divine Office:

Paul of the Cross was sprung of a noble family of the Danei, at Castellazzo, hard by Alessandria, in the Province of Acqui, in the territory of the then Republic of Genoa, but was born at Ovada, in the same province. The holiness with which he was afterwards to shine was foreshown by a strange light which filled his mother's chamber while she was in labour, and by the remarkable help which was bestowed upon him by the great Queen of Heaven, who delivered him unhurt from certain destruction when he was fallen into a river as a lad. From the first use of reason he burnt with love for Jesus crucified, and began to spend long times in contemplating Him. He chastised his innocent flesh with watching, scourging, fasting, and all severe hardships, and on Friday he drank vinegar mingled with gall. He was seized with a desire for martyrdom, and enlisted in the army which was being raised at Venice to fight against the Turks but in consequence of the Will of God, made known to him while he was in prayer, he left the army in order to serve in a more exalted regiment whose duty it should be to defend the Church and to toil for the eternal salvation of men. When he returned home he refused a very honourable marriage, and also the inheritance which was bequeathed to him by his father's brother, and would fain enter upon a straiter way of the cross and be clad by his own Bishop with a rough tunic. By command of the Bishop, on account of his eminent holiness of life and knowledge of the things of God, he began, even before he became a clerk, to toil in the Lord's field with great profit of souls by preaching the Word.

He betook himself to Rome, and when he had there studied a regular course of theology he was ordained Priest in obedience to the command of the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XIII., who also gave him permission to gather comrades around him. He withdrew to the solitude of Mount Argentaro, whither he had been already called by the Blessed Virgin, at which same time she also showed him in vision a black habit marked with the emblems of the sufferings of her Son. At Mount Argentaro, he laid the foundations of his new Congregation, which under the blessing of God grew quickly, through the labors of Paul, and attracted to it eminent men. It received the confirmation of the Apostolic See more than once, with the rules which Paul himself had received from God in prayer and the addition of a fourth vow, that, namely, to promote the blessed remembrance of the sufferings of the Lord. He founded a congregation of holy virgins also, who should dwell constantly upon the overflowing love of the Divine Bridegroom. Amid all these works his untiring love for souls caused him never to weary in the preaching of the Gospel, and he led into the path of salvation men almost countless, among whom were some of the most lost, or those who had fallen into heresy. The greatest and most wonderful power of his preaching was how he told of the sufferings of Christ, so that he himself and his hearers would alike burst into tears, and hardened hearts were cloven by repentance.

The fire of the love of God burnt so in his heart that the part of his under-garment which was next thereto often presented the appearance of having been scorched, and two of his ribs seemed to be raised. He could not withhold his tears, more especially when he was saying Mass, and when he was in a state of trance, as oftentimes befell, his body was sometimes seen to be raised into the air, and his face to shine as with light from heaven. Sometimes when he was preaching a heavenly voice was heard prompting him, or his words became audible at the distance of several miles. He was eminent for the gifts of prophecy, of speaking with tongues, of reading the heart, and of power over evil spirits, over diseases, and over the inanimate elements of nature. The Supreme Pontiffs themselves regarded him as dear and venerable, but he held himself to be but an unprofitable servant, and a sinful wretch upon whom devils might well trample. He held to the bitter hardships of his life, even unto a great age, and passed to heaven from Rome, (upon the 18th day of October,) being the day which he had himself foretold, in the year 1775, after he had addressed to his disciples noble exhortations which are as the heritage of his spirit, and had been comforted by the sacraments of the Church, and by an heavenly vision. The Supreme Pontiff Pius IX. numbered his name among those of the blessed, and then, after renewed signs and wonders, among those of the Saints. (Matins, The Divine Office, Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross, April 28.)

Dom Prosper Gueranger wrote the following prayer honor the founder of the Congregation of the Passion:

Thou hadst but one thought, O Paul. Hidden in those “clefts of the rock,” (Song of Solomon 2:14) which are the sacred Wounds of the Savior, thou wouldst bring all men to these divine fountains which quench the thirst of the true Israel in the desert of this life. Happy were they who could hear thy victorious word and save themselves by the Cross in the midst of a perverse generation. But in spite of thy apostolic zeal, thy voice could not make itself heard in all lands, and where thou wast absent evil was let loose upon the world. False science and mistaken piety, mistrust of Rome and the corruption of the great had prepared the way for the destruction of the old Christian social order, and the world was given over to teachers of lies. Thy prophetic gaze saw the abyss in which kings and peoples were soon to be engulfed. The successor of St. Peter, unable to quell the storm which raged against the Church, sought by his efforts and sacrifices to hold back the floods, even for a time. Thou wert the friend of the Pontiffs and their support in those sad days, the witness of Christ suffering in his Vicar. What sorrows were confided to thee! And what must have been thy thoughts when at thy death thou didst bequeath the venerated image of the Mater Dolorosa to a Pontiff who was destined to drain the cup of bitterness and die a captive in a strange land! Thou didst promise to watch over the Church from thy throne in heaven with that tender compassion which identified thee on earth with her suffering Spouse. Keep this promise today, O Paul! This age of social disintegration has neither made atonement for the sins of the past nor learned wisdom from misfortune. The Church is the victim of oppression on all sides, the power is in the hands of her persecutors, and the Vicar of Christ is a prisoner in his palace and lives on alms. The Bride has no bed but the Cross of her Spouse, she lives on the memory of his sufferings. The Holy Spirit who guards her and is preparing her for the final summons, has raised thee up to keep her perpetually in mind of those sufferings which are to strengthen her in the trials of the last days.

Thy children all the world over are true to the spirit of their father and continue thy work on earth. They have gained a footing in England where thy prophetic gaze foresaw their labors, and this kingdom, for which thou didst pray so earnestly, is being gradually freed, through their influence, from the bonds of schism and heresy. Bless their apostolate. May they grow and be multiplied to meet the ever-increasing needs of those unhappy times! May their zeal ever continue to minister to the Church, and may the holiness of their lives ever redound to the glory of their father!

Thou, O Paul, wast faithful to thy crucified Master in his humiliation, and he has been faithful to thee in her triumphant Resurrection. In the hour of darkness thou didst live hidden in the cleft of the mysterious Rock. But what must be thy glory, now that Christ victorious “enlighteneth wonderfully from the everlasting hills”! (Psalm 25:5) Enlighten and perfect us, we beseech thee. We give thanks to God for thy triumph. Do thou in return help us to be faithful to the standard of the Cross, so that we, like thee, may be illuminated by its glory, when it appears in the clouds of heaven (Matthew 24:30) on the Day of Judgment. O Apostle of the Cross, initiate us into the mystery of the Pasch, which is so closely connected with that of Calvary. Only he who has shared the combat can comprehend the victory and have part in the triumph. (Dom Prosper Gueranger, O.S.B. The Liturgical Year, Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross, April 28.)

From the Divine Office for the Feast of Saint Vitalis

Vitalis was a soldier, and the father of the holy Martyrs Gervase and Protase. He went to Ravenna with Paulinus the judge, and there saw the physician Ursicinus led out to die, because he owned to being a believer in Christ. As the torments went on, Ursicinus seemed to waver a little, and Vitalis cried out to him, Ursicinus! as a physician thou hast been used to heal other men's bodies, take heed lest thou let thine own soul die eternally. These words encouraged Ursicinus, and he endured bravely in his testimony even unto the end but Paulinus was filled with fury, and caused Vitalis to be seized, tormented on the rack, and finally thrown into a pit and buried under an heap of stones. When it was over, a certain priest of Apollo, who had urged on Paulinus against Vitalis, was seized by the devil, and began to cry out, Vitalis, Vitalis, thou art Christ's Martyr, but thou makest me to burn, thou makest me to burn! Until in that frenzy, he threw himself into the river. (Matins, Feast of Saint Paul of the Cross and Commemoration of Saint Vitalis, April 28.)

Many physicians today kill innocent beings in the womb, and they kill them by means of direct euthanasia, by starving and dehydrating them to death, under the aegis of the medical industry’s manufactured money-making myth of “brain death” in engage in human organ vivisection, by “palliative care,” and by “assisted suicide,” and they are doing so with the full support of men such as Vincenzo Paglia, who cares not for the true good of human bodies or, much more importantly, the souls that have been redeemed by the shedding of every single drop of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ’s Most Precious Blood on the wood of the Holy Cross.
