It's disturbing to see the level of truths, facts and accurate information that is withheld from the public debate around COVID-19. Fortunately, the information is out there if you really want to know what's happening. This also slides over to the debate around vaccination. Did you know? If you have a large amount of excess body fat, it minimizes the ability of the COVID-19 jab to do its job properly? Science spells that all out. In laymen's terms, if you have a large amount of excess body fat,...

Without the work of the White Coat Waste Project, we may have never learned about the grotesque, vile horror taking place under the watch of the National Institute of Health and their wretched leader, Tony Fauci.

In spite of the best efforts of the major media and all of his followers to protect him,...

From the video: viral variations are natural, and they occur in probabilistic fashion all over the world in a rough period of time. This has nothing to do with spread between countries. It is a natural...

This was reported in the Star Tribune on...
