Louis Pasteur, Freemason, father of the false theory of microbes, vaccines and pasteurization.On his deathbed, he confessed to being a fraud. His fraudulent conclusions became the main cash cow that made “Big Pharma” what it is today.They make you sick and make a profit, while making you afraid of non-existent tiny deadly particles that they call viruses.(Not to be confused with bacteria, since they exist, but viruses do not, since none of them has ever been isolated and thus its existence has been proven).Bechamp’s locality theory was rejected as a fraud, while it was true about the real theory of viruses, simply because admitting this fact would not bring Big Pharma money.The owners of Big Pharma and Pasteur were Satan-worshipping Freemasons and obsessed with eugenics, causing diseases and depopulation of those populations that are not part of their Masonic death bunch of billionaires and their puppets.

I am a one man operation that has been trying to filter through all the “New Aged” worldwide propaganda preached to the truth community / freedom fighters through fake “truth gurus/mentors”, so that i can bring you the “actual” truth. I have been doing this since 2016 and went mainstream in 2018. These “wolves in sheeps clothing” are “planted” within the community as “Gatekeepers” to, sow division, utilize delay/deflect tactics misinform and mislead the “free-thinkers” or anyone that opposes the “Occultist Hidden Hand” or “Shadow Government” , straight to the slaughterhouse.
I would like to say thanks to all the fellow “watchmen”, “Shill Hunters” and “Genuine truthers/researchers/free thinkers” working tirelessly around the clock out there, putting yourself in the trenches, laying it all on the line by sounding the alarm over the last several years, sacrifices have been made, reputations tarnished, online friends and family members have been lost and lots more put on the back burner.

The following information is a presentation of evidence, combined with my opinions, based on factual details available in the public domain. My opinions are based on the evidence. I do not claim to present an overarching or objective truth, and I encourage all readers to engage in their own research by following the links available in this document. It is up to each individual to research for themselves in order to determine whether or not your conclusions align with my assessment and analysis of the evidence. Consider this document a starting point to a larger body of research and more thorough investigation.
Dolores Cahill is an Irish pro-vaccine queen and one of the leading voices of the so-called “anti-vaccine” movement. The mainstream media refers to Cahill as an “anti-vaccination” advocate and conspiracy theorist, who is spreading medical misinformation. Professor Cahill has a degree in Molecular Genetics and a Ph.D. in Immunology. Let’s take a look at Dolores Cahill’s career and see if the mainstream media’s representation of her is accurate.
Prof. Dr Dolores Cahill is a world-wide renowned expert in high-throughput proteomics technology development and automation, high content protein arrays and their biomedical applications, including in biomarker discovery and diagnostics.
What is Biomarker Discovery? According to WikiPedia:
Biomarker discovery is a medical term describing the process by which biomarkers are discovered. Many commonly used blood tests in medicine are biomarkers. There is interest in biomarker discovery on the part of the pharmaceutical industry; blood-test or other biomarkers could serve as intermediate markers of disease in clinical trials, and as possible drug targets.
So far, just from the first line of her bio, we have learned that Cahill has been involved in working on vaccine technology and is connected to the pharmaceutical industry through her work on biomarkers. Let’s continue. Prof. Cahill pioneered this research area at the Max-Planck-Institute of Molecular Genetics in Berlin, Germany, and holds several international patents in this field with research, biomedicine and diagnostic applications.
Given that she holds several international patents in this field, it is fair to assume that any vaccine company that uses her technology will pay her a lot of money for it. To put it another way, she stands to profit from the manufacturing and development of vaccines.
● Over 20 years expertise in high-throughput protein & antibody array, automation, proteomics technology development & biomedical applications in biomarker discovery, diagnostics & personalised medicine.
● Since 2005 to present, Full Professor of Translational Science, School of Medicine, University College Dublin, Academic, Researcher, Lecturer, Module Coordinator in Pathology Teaching, School of Medicine & Conway Institute
● 15 years as Irish, EU & international expert & advisor including Seconded National Expert to European Commission
● Company Co-founder & Shareholder (1997-2019) of Protagen AG in Germany (https://protagen.com/). Protagen Protein Services (2012-2019) contract services to healthcare sector & pharmaceutical industry (https://protagenproteinservices.com/).
Protagen Protein Services (PPS) is a world leading CRO and recognized expert for analytical services in protein science regarding characterization, method development, validation and routine testing of antibodies, proteins, vaccines and other formates of biopharmaceuticals.
A CRO (Contract Research Organization) is a company that provides clinical trial management services for the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device industries.
● Since 2016, co-founding shareholder and Advisory Board member of Prof. Stephen Pennington’s UCD School of Medicine/Conway Institute spin-out company, Atturos Ltd. working to improve Prostate Cancer diagnosis (http://atturos.com/ and http://atturos.com/company/advisors/).
Atturos is a fast growing clinical diagnostics company developing molecular diagnostic tests to support better patient decisions. Currently focusing on the identification of serum protein biomarkers, Atturos uses cutting edge technology in collaboration with key clinical consortia and big pharma.
If you scroll to the bottom of their page, you can see some of their Big Pharma partners which include Merck and Pfizer.
It is interesting that one of the leading voices in the so-called “anti-vaccine” movement co-founded and sits on the board of a company that partners with Merck, Pfizer and a handful of other Big Pharma companies. To put it another way, it is in her personal financial interest to make decisions that will benefit companies like Merck and Pfizeras well as her own company, Atturos, Ltd.
Selected Academic Leadership and Contributions: Invited Speaker, Keynotes, Conferences organised:
● Prof. Cahill has given over 100 Keynotes in USA, Europe, China, Japan, S. Korea, Australia, South America: ● 18th-19th May 2020: Chair, Global Bioprocessing, Bioanalytics & ATMP Manufacturing, Dublin.
Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) are medicines for human use with an active therapeutic substance based on at least one of the following; ● Technology to modify patient genome ● Recombinant nucleic acids or genes ● Substantially manipulated cells ● Cells intended for a different essential function in the patient versus the donor ● Engineered tissue
We can learn more here, in this article by BioPharm International Editors.
NHC was announced as a preferred bidder in December 2020 to become one of the initial three centers to provide hands-on training for advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) and vaccine manufacture as part of the Advanced Therapies Skills Training Network (ATSTN)—a UK-wide initiative. ATSTN has been awarded funding by the Department for Business Energyand Industrial Strategy for the delivery of training centers across the UK that will help to develop practical skills and address the growing need in vaccine and ATMP manufacturing.June 2020: Keynote Speaker, BioTech Pharma Summit, CBB 2020, Portugal.
Back to Cahill’s bio:
● 24th-25th Sept 2020: Guest Speaker, Biotechnology Business Workshop, British Embassy & Biotech Atelier Sofia. ● 8th-9th October 2020: Keynote Speaker, Global Engage, Liquid Biopsies Conference, London.
Bringing Pharma, Biotech, Academia, Technology and Investment Together Global Engage was founded in 2009 in order to create events that enhance the knowledge pool of the life science industries and engage key stakeholders. We have a particular focus on drug discovery, biologics, genomic sequencing, agriculture and health technology.
Clinical biomarkers and companion diagnostics deliver significant patient benefits, healthcare cost savings, and revenue opportunities while providing a foundation for precision medicine. Pharmaceutical companies are embracing biomarkers as a way to decrease drug failures in the clinic by streamlining patient selection and stratification. The need for open discussion between pharma and diagnostics partners to find common ground, address strategy and technology issues, and form sustainable partnerships is at an all-time high. Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s Companion Diagnostics and Clinical Biomarkers conference program is designed to bring together major stakeholders in the field of drug-diagnostics co-development to foster successful science and business strategies in the rapidly changing healthcare environment.

Sounds like quite the sorcerer to me. The rest of her bio is also worth a read. I won’t hash out the entire bio here, but if we read it in full, we will find that she was also honored with a lifetime award from the Federation of European Biochemical Societies in Norway for her research, as well as the BMBF BioFuture Prize by the German Minister of Science. You can read all about BioFuture here. I am sure you will find it quite enlightening. At this point, I’d like to pause and ask a very simple and reasonable question.
Would the Federation of European Biochemcial Societies and German Minister of Science give these awards to someone whom they believed was threatening their business goals? Is it safe to assume that these awards are reserved for only the select few people that actually go above and beyond in not only their own professional achievements, but also their ability to help these entities achieve their goals?
So far, we have learned (just from her bio) that this person who is known by the majority of the public as a leading voice in the “anti-vaccination” movement – has spent the majority of her career developing technologies for vaccines and drugs.
What a hero. With friends like these, who needs enemies?
Obviously, there is no way this person would be allowed to have such a spotlight in the “opposition movement” unless she served the Global Agenda. But we don’t have to speculate or rely on unfounded conspiracy theories, we can see it all right there in her bio. So, what else can we learn about Cahill?
Well, how about we take a look at some of the things she has said to see if we can determine what some of her beliefs and opinions are. Let’s call this section:
THE FANTASTICAL CLAIMS OF DOLORES CAHILL
Cahill: “What I want to publicize is, it’s well known in immunology, you can take preventive measures to boost your own immune system, so that even if you were a little bit malnourished or rundown, that if you take vitamin D, vitamin C, and zinc, your immune system will be boosted, and also if you eat—good nutrition—so that if you come across the virus […] you will have hardly any symptoms, you will clear the virus.”
Cahill: “SARS virus circulated [since] 2003 and essentially every three or four years since, so that people are immune—so that everybody practically in the world is immune.”
How can someone claiming to be an expert in these fields, with such an impressive professional resume – not understand that viruses don’t cause disease and there was no “circulation of SARS” or any other so-called viruses, because viruses don’t exist? Are these not very basic, elementary concepts? Is she stupid?
Cahill: “So when they reported in the California study, in the Bakersfield study, with Dr. Erickson, it turned out the percentage [of the population that are infected with COVID-19 was around 7% right? So globally the people have antibodies in general, whether for COVID-19 or not, that would test positive in these things—it’s between 7% and 15%. But it just means the other people don’t have antibodies that are detectable or they don’t need to develop antibodies, because they’re not attacked by these viruses and they don’t have any symptoms.”
Viruses can’t “attack” anything because there is no such thing as a virus. Has this person not read a single book about the origins and history of virology? How is it that we, mere mortal researchers understand this completely – but this person who has spent her entire career in the field has no idea about this fundamental and foundational concept about what causes disease?
Cahill: “Hydroxychloroquine […] was shown […] by doctors worldwide to be the most efficient treatment for the coronavirus.”
Actually, no. Drugs don’t treat viruses. Drugs (allegedly) treat illnesses, disease and symptoms. Saying that something treats a virus is the same as saying that if you weren bitten by a dog, you take medicine to treat the dog. But that’s nonsense, of course. You take medicine to treat the BITE WOUND. But the real issue here is that drugs don’t actually do anything except add toxicity to your body, which causes illness and disease.
Viruses have no nucleus. There’s no respiratory system. There’s no circulatory system. There’s no digestive system.
Cahill: There’s been papers published by the U.S. Army, where they have certain flu vaccines in 2017 and 2018 given to soldiers, that when they naturally come across a coronavirus, they have a cytokine storm and are severely sick. So it turns out in the vaccines that were given in Wuhan and in Italy, in the Lombardy region, … these vaccines have been grown on dog tissue and dog tissues are known to have coronaviruses.”
Rather than admit and acknowledge that the unknown toxins in vaccines are causing the illness, she still insists that the virus is actually the source of the illness. And she sources “papers published by the U.S. Army” as a credible source – as if the military is the authority for truth and has an obligation or interest in providing the public with it. The job of the military is to conduct psychological warfare via fear, propaganda and deception.
Cahill:[Vaccines are] “not safety tested and a lot of the ingredients that are in vaccines are known themselves to actually be bad for the immune system, like aluminium or mercury, so there is absolutely no necessity for those kinds of toxic ingredients to be in vaccine adjuvants at all.”
Says the lady who has spent her entire career working for Big Pharma and developing vaccines?
Cahill: “It’s been known for like sixty years that just simple mineral-type oil is plenty antigenic for the body to elicit an immune response, you do not need to be adding in human DNA, mercury, aluminium.”
An immune response to what? Oh, right – an invisible thing that nobody has ever seen or proven exists.
Cahill: “There is no need for social distancing. There are only three organisms that are transmitted in that way, and it’s TB and smallpox and Ebola, so this one is not. This one is transmitted if a droplet is on a door handle.”
Smallpox and Ebola are SCAMS. Anyone who has done even just a cursory amount of research into Smallpox or Ebola understands this clearly. Neither is caused by an “organism” and “this one” isn’t transmitted by a droplet on a door handle. In order to make such a claim, one would have to conduct valid scientific experiments to prove this claim, which nobody in the world has done.
Dolores Cahill is a liar.
Cahill:What a mask does, it’s entirely the wrong thing. It actually reduces the oxygen supply to you, so actually everybody has latent viruses within their body, and because you’re under oxygen stress, it allows viruses that were latent—because you’re under stress it decreases your immune system.”
Do you see how these swindlers operate? They always give you a bit of truth (masks reduce oxygen supply) and then misdirect you with a lie (viruses).
Cahill: “[COVID-19 patients become] immune for life and will no longer transmit the disease.”
Immune to what? Even if COVID19 was contagious (it’s not), and really was caused by a virus called Sars-Cov-2 (it’s not), how could anyone in the world know that you would be “immune for life,” when it’s only been a year since this started (at the time of her interview)?
But this is just another stupid distraction to get us to believe that people “transmit the disease.” Disease is not contagious.
Cahill: “Hydroxychloroquine will work for all these types of viruses, these coronaviruses.”
What Viruses? Who has a virus? The CDC doesn’t, and neither does anyone else in the world. Is this person an idiot? How can this person possibly be considered an expert? Of course she’s going to promote HCQ, because she’s a DRUG DEALER and a whore for Big Pharma. And if you take HCQ in too high of a dose, guess what will happen? YOU WILL BECOME DEATHLY ILL. Then, this lady will blame your illness on a mysterious new and invisible virus.
Cahill: In general these [corona]viruses have 30,000 nucleotides but in this [SARS-CoV-2]—there’s actually a stretch of 12 nucleotides that are not present in the other viruses, and this would not happen naturally.” [referencing Anderson et al. Nature Medicine, Figure 1]
As we can see, she is planting the seed for the suggestion of a “man-made pathogen” using the common, pathetic sleight-of-hand tactics that we are used to. Since there is no natural virus, then there can be no man-made virus. Cahill can create a conspiracy theory about a bioweapon and then the mainstream fact checkers can come and debunk her lies with their mainstream lies. It’s designed this way, and it works effectively.
But how precisely could anyone in the world possibly know how many nucleotides are in SARS-CoV-2, without first isolating SARS-CoV-2? And which image does she reference? A silly chart, designed on a computer, which came from the imagination of some scientists who have never observed a virus called SARS-CoV-2.
Yes, her evidence is literally a colorful chart, created in a computer software program. This is how far we have fallen from reality.
Cahill: “The PhD student from this lab [in Wuhan] died and it was at her funeral, it seems, in Wuhan that people started to get the initial symptoms [of COVID-19] after her funeral.”
Oh, it seems so, does it? What an absurd statement. Should we base scientific discoveries and conclusions on things that seem to be a certain way? Or should we be conducting rigorous experiments, with negative control groups, and having those observations and conclusions confirmed by other scientists in a manner that is consistently repeatable?
So what were the details of the funeral story? Who were the people and how many got sick? Do they have names? What sort of symptoms did they develop? Were they hospitalized? Did they recover? Were samples drawn? Any negative controls? Was toxicity ruled out?
Oh, to hell with all of that red tape … it seems so, let’s just go with that.So, what does Dolores have to gain from her role in the opposition movement, as she “fights” for the people of Ireland? Well, let’s have a look at her business dealings.
Doloros Cahill is the Co-Founder of Freedom Airway and Freedom Travel Alliance (FAFTA). From their website:
The community we are creating is a group of passionate trailblazers defending freedoms and rights to travel the world. We honor people’s right to travel freely, embracing cultures, wildlife, and the environment while creating shared economic opportunities.
Do you smell a rat? I do. Here’s their Facebook page. Note that they call themselves an Information Technology Company, but they also appear to be in the travel space. Exactly what they do is vague and ambiguous.
Want to join the community? Membership starts at $100 and includes $200 and $500 tiers.
Ahh yes, the inevitable sales pitch. Give your money to Dolores so that she can “fight for Ireland.” For those who decide to pay these people (to do what, exactly?), membership will “bring you into the effort to assure that your family’s natural health rights while traveling are protected from injurious regulation and discriminatory policy.”
I see. Apparently they’ll fight for freedom and travel rights, but only for those who pay them. Yes, it’s true. They will attempt to help people fly but only the people who pay for membership. So what have they accomplished for the people of Ireland so far? Hint – absolutely nothing.
On their membership page, we can also see that a monthly membership costs $11.11. They will always throw their occult numbers right in our faces, to mock us.
Recently, FAFTA was also “looking for 5 ANGEL SHARE Investors to partner with and support our 5 founders in 3 countries on 2 continents.”
So, the next obvious question is … who are the founders (other than Cahill)? Susan Sweetin/Kevin Jenkins/Tara Thorton are our three American founders and Susan Standfield is our Canadian founder. –Source
I found 3 people named Susan Sweetin in the United States, but only one with an online presence, and there is no mention of her having anything to do with this organization. Is Susan Sweetin a real person? Where does she live (which state)? You’d think one of the founders of this company would have more of an online presence, perhaps a LinkedIn page or something?
Multiple non-profit organizations appear to be the key vehicle funding Aguilar, Olszewski, and her now defunct and limp partner Kevin Gene Tuttle [USAF Public Relations]. Please see Greg Wyatt’s long standing detailed research on how these individuals are connected and the operations they are running. It must be understood that these deceivers are not grassroots and do not represent the people. They are controlled opposition agents.
Susan Standfield is the founder of Health Justice Tees. Here’s an interesting article where she made the news for some controversial T-shirts. Here’s another one. If you dig a little, you’ll find her doing interviews on all the same radio shows as the Bigtrees, the Sacha Stones, Rocco Galati, Mikki Willis, etc. etc. Same narratives, same boundaries, same “movement” with a lot of overlap. They are all networked together, running an operation.
Amazing how these folks are all connected, isn’t it? Do you think that’s merely a coincidence? Of course not. The fake “anti-vaccine” movement is a well organized, highly controlled machine. It is run by military and intelligence.
So now we have already connected FAFTA (which Dolores Cahill is one of the co-founders of) to other pro-vax groups and questionable characters (including Del Bigtree) with military ties in the United States. FAFTA was planning to issue ‘Faftacoins’ to members which, presumably, would be redeemable against flights. In March 2021, the FAFTA website advertised a Spring trip to Ireland with the words “Ready to celebrate Freedom & Saint Patrick’s Day in Ireland? Nothing is more Irish than this trip hosting by our very own Freedom Fighter, Dr. Dolores Cahill!”
If we go to the “Freedom Talks” section of their website (currently), we find an upcoming talk by Kevin Jenkins and Dr. Christine Northrup, of course! All these pro-vaccine goblins promote each other and roll in the same circles, afterall. And here is the blurb associated with that talk:
At a time when truth has been silenced & trampled by big tech and conglomerate news networks, Freedom Talks is set to provide a platform for our Natural Freedom Audience to be a part of the discussion so we can broadcast the true opinion of the masses.
Did you notice how they just hijacked your opinion in one sentence? These are the folks who will represent the opinion of the masses. Your opinion won’t matter, only theirs will. And theirs is a pro-vax, middle of the road voice. None of these people are pro-health and pro-freedom. They all love vaccines. This is something that everyone on planet Earth needs to learn.
Has the truth really been “silenced” by Big Tech and Conglomerate News when it comes to people like Dolores Cahill? Have most folks (outside of Ireland) ever heard of her before COVID19? Off to Google Trends we go…
As we can see clearly, the data shows that Dolores Cahill’s popularity saw a huge spike when the so-called “pandemic” started and she has been gaining popularity and fame ever since, just like fellow grifters Mikki Willis, David Martin, Dr. Judy Mikovitz, Rashid Buttar, Del Bigtree, etc. etc. etc. To put it another way, Dolores Cahill is more famous now than she has ever been. More people search for her, more people know who she is, than ever before. So was she really censored? Or was she given an artificial boost under the costume of censorship? Faux-censorship, if you will.
We can even say that she’s a household name now (at least in the “truther communities” or what have you). In other ways, we can safely speculate that she is probably also making more money right now than she was before the “pandemic” (donations, speaking tours, membership fees, etc). That’s not including all the money that her companies will make.
In short, if we are speaking strictly from the perspective of censorship, this person has more reach, influence and more of a voice than ever before. If we’re speaking strictly from a financial perspective, the “pandemic” is maybe the best thing that’s ever happened to her.
Irish activist Gemma O’Doherty(*Update later exposed as being a double agent and member of the secret society The Order of the Black Sun ) had a very interesting audio that exposed Dolores Cahill for the fraud that she is, but that audio has vanished.
Gemma’s website and research are hard to find because Google and the rest of the Tech Giants suppress it. Unlike Dolores, who gets a boost and promotion from Big Tech, real censorship always happens quietly.
This is why most people have never heard of Gemma O’Doherty or Greg Wyatt and why Dolores has been handed to us on a silver platter with a strobe light attached to it and a disco ball above her head.
“Are you ready to be a part of something bigger and make an impact on the future of travel, tourism, and freedom!”
Then sign up now and give us your money! Freedom comes at a cost, afterall!
Protagen AG – Co-Founded by Dolores Cahill in 1996, as a spin-out from the Max Planck Institute to “commercialise her diagnostic, companion diagnostic and personalised medicine applications of her discoveries”. She continued to be a shareholder in the company prior to its sale in 2019. At the time of the sale, Protagen had generated revenue of £1.7 million in the previous three years (2016–2018). Source
In 2012, Protagen sold its protein analytical business unit to one of Germany’s largest family-owned venture capital funds, ZFHN Heilbronn.
In 2014, Protagen Protein Services merged with PANATecs. In their company blurb, they noted in 2008 – “Panatecs GmbH rescued a Big Pharma blockbuster market authorization by its innovative protein analytical approach.” Cahill was also a shareholder at this time – “providing contract services to [the] healthcare sector & pharmaceutical industry.”
In 2016, Protagen announced a collaboration with Novartis AG, a major Swiss-based multinational pharmaceuticals company. In June 2020, Novartis signed a strategic partnership agreement with the Massachusetts Eye and Ear and Massachusetts General Hospitals to produce a Covid-19 Vaccine candidate.
In 2019, Protagen was sold to Oncimmune (a leading pharmaceutical company in the field of cancer detection) for £4.1 million, which means Dolores made a lot of money on her stock options. So – Professor Cahill who pretends to be fighting against the vaccine manufactures and Big Pharma is a pro-vaccine sorcerer who has spent the majority of her career working for Big Pharma, developing vaccines, and who co-founded a company that earned money by servicing pharmaceuticals.
She then sold the company to another pharmaceutical company and became a shareholder in that company, proportionate to her original holding in Protagen AG. Once that company was sold, she walked away with a pile of cash.
Then, she used some of her profits to launch the Custodean Project and used the White Castle to host a ‘Festival of the Butterfly’ party, which of course made headlines for violating anti-lockdown rules. For the record, I have no problems whatsoever with people throwing parties in 15th Irish Century Castles. Hopefully they had a good DJ.
What is the Custodean Project, and what was this “Festival of the Butterfly” really about? I couldn’t find much online and don’t care to spend too much time on it, but these hustlers always do seem to be starting charity organizations and making lots of money in their humble efforts to save the world and fight for the people, no? You can hear Dolores promoting her project in this video. From the video’s description, “she alludes to the new Custodean Project which, based on her “research document,” will call for an “inquiry” into the deaths of our elderly by criminal medical malpractice during the SARS-CoV-2 emergence.
Ahh yes, another “inquiry” – sign up now and donate to the cause so that Dolores can make her “inquiry.” So here are a few questions. What does this “inquiry” entail? Is it an official document with an official procedure? Are their government officials or courts involved? What does the process consist of? Did anyone go to jail or lose their job as a result of the “inquiry?” What exactly will come from this “inquiry” – well, in case we haven’t learned yet – absolutely nothing. Dolores will continue to make lots of money though, and surely will have more “inquiries” in the future.
Most of my research on these individuals usually uncovers the same patterns and signs of charity fraud, deception, money laundering, etc. Inquiries and lawsuits that go nowhere and people connected to Big Pharma, Big Banking, Big Trees, Big This and Big That – and always making a lot of money. Enough to buy their own 15th century castle, in some cases.
In case you were wondering, Cahill’s current net worth is somewhere between $1 – $5 Million. Those figures are as of December, 2020, 3 months before she bought the castle. Not too bad for someone who claims to have been “censored” and is “fighting the establishment.” Also note, based on the information above, Cahill profits from diseases and pandemics. If diseases and pandemics disappeared tomorrow, she would lose a lot of money. You could say (from a financial perspective), that she (and her employers) might have an incentive to not only hope for diseases and pandemics but to maybe even create them out of thin air, just for profits. That’s mere speculation, of course.
If you’d like to join the Custodian Project, membership starts at €100 per year, and there is also a ‘family/business membership’ program. Who knows exactly what they’re doing – it all sounds innocent enough for now, but I’m sure if I spent more time digging, I would find even more damning information about this deceiver.
As noted in a previous paper, pro-vaccine queen Dolores Cahill is also running for political office in Ireland now. Do you think that this woman, who has spent her entire career working for Big Pharma, developing vaccines, is actually fighting against the interests of Big Pharma and for the people of Ireland? Of course she’s not! She’s a sub-par thespian and a pawn for globalists, engaged in deception.
She is employed by the very same people she pretends to be fighting against. You can watch, these grotesque theatrics she participated in recently to verify this. It should be clear to anyone with even only an ounce of discernment that these are nothing but third-rate, pathetic staged acts for public consumption.
She is nothing but a duplicitous actress involved in an elaborate con. Pay special notice to the part where she actually accuses the guard of rape. This is how they discredit those of us in the health and freedom movement who are sane, normal people. They do it by associating us with lunatics like this woman.
In that third video, notice the professional camera work and audio. Also take note of her “American campaign manager.” These folks are all calling plays from the same playbook, and they’re all on the same team as the bad guys. The facade of “good guys” vs “bad guys” is nothing but kayfabe. They run the same marketing and PR campaigns and manipulate the public into supporting their “causes,” “organizations,” and political aspirations. But do they ever accomplish anything?
All I see are more and more vaccines. Dolores will make them safer though, so let’s put our trust in her and send her more money!
The technocratic globalists put their false opposition minions in political office so that the people will feel a sense of victory, and have their faith in the political system restored. No need to file my own lawsuit or organize my community to stand up and fight, Dolores is on the case!
The public will remain docile and complacent because they think that these people are allies – fighting the system, demanding answers, filing lawsuits and going after corruption. Nonsense. It’s an intricate ruse (albeit a transparent one).
When was the last time any of these psychopaths went to jail for crimes against humanity? Think about that for as long as you need to. The best way to control the opposition is to lead it yourself.
We can see the clues clearly throughout these videos, such as when she says: “Let me in, I want to go into this building…” clearly hamming it up for the cameras with overacted and contrived antics. Or another time when she talks to one of the “guards” .. .“Anyone who dresses up as a guard…”
…meaning, he’s not a real guard, he’s an actor, dressing up in a costume … and his name is Hugh Shovelin! That’s right, they’re “shovelin” it right in our faces.
Now, if you don’t understand that these are staged theatrics as part of a psychological warfare operation, pay very close attention to the way this “Hugh Shovelin” speaks and acts, and watch his body language. Also note that he’s basically the only one of these guards that interacts with her. Ask yourself if these are the mannerisms and dialogue of regular people, having normal conversations and interactions, or if they seem more like a rehearsed production. Watch all of the details in these videos and you will undoubtedly pick up a few things. Note the way it all feels rehearsed, and the production quality and strategy of the whole thing. Pay attention to the details of the cameras, the movements of the people and the way they speak.
To recap – One of the world’s “leading voices” in the anti-vaccine movement is a woman who has spent her entire life developing vaccine technology, winning multiple pharma awards, giving numerous high profile and prestigious Keynote Speeches at Big Pharma and Biotech conferences, and who co-founded a pharma company that partners with Merck and Pfizer, co-founded another company develops vaccines, and is a world leading CRO that provides clinical trial management services for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.
That company (Protagen) also announced a collaboration with another company (Novartis), in 2016. She remained a shareholder in Protagen until 2019 when the company was sold. The following year, Novartis produced a COVID19 vaccine candidate.
Also, Cahill has made a lot of money from the sale of shares in pharmaceutical companies that make vaccines and drugs and has ties to other pro-vax undercover military operations in the United States. She also used some of her pharma money to buy her own castle and naturally has set up multiple organizations to “help humanity” and steer the “anti-vaccine” movement into an acceptable, dumbed down, soft-serve level of dissent, which she profits from as well.
And the mainstream media calls her an anti-vaccination activist. 😂
What they are correct about, however, is that Dolores actually is a conspiracy theorist and she is spreading medical misinformation, on purpose. By continuing to lie about viruses and all things virology, Dolores is participating in a conspiracy theory – the conspiracy theory that suggests that mother nature conspires to kill human beings via “deadly pathogens” that nobody can see or prove actually exist. Cahill is spreading medical misinformation by subscribing to these superstitions and worshipping in the holy Church of the religion of Germ Theory.
That’s how the fact-checkers can get away with their shenanigans. They trick us by wrapping up some of the truths with lies, and vice versa. Then they can come in and debunk her claims while causing mass confusion and division, which she can respond to by claiming “censorship!” – thereby garnering her more attention which leads to more money for her “cause.” A fabulous and cunning scam, if there ever was one.
At the same time, they can easily discredit all of the opposition, just by associating us with an insane person like her. At the end of the day, they all agree with her about viruses, contagion and Germ Theory – and that despite some injuries and deaths with this new experimental vaccine, most regular vaccines are generally safe and effective, thus further legitimizing Big Pharma and the vaccine industry and normalizing vaccines in general. These are the lies that they all protect together and the ultimate gates that they are guarding. Cahill is just pretending to be in opposition to the mainstream, in the same way that Macho Man Randy Savage pretended to “hate” Hulk Hogan. The public thought it was all a real feud, and they had a cold beer together, behind the curtain, after the show was over.
“Cheers for a job well done, we sure pulled one over on them tonight, brother!”
Could Ireland not find someone better suited and more qualified to lead the true, grassroots health and freedom movement, someone who actually represents the real voice of the Irish people? Someone who, I dunno – hasn’t worked for Big Pharma developing vaccines for most of her life? Maybe someone who is opposed to vaccination all together?
You know, someone other than Cahill who is clearly a hardcore proponent and champion of vaccines and has worked for pharma companies, profiting handsomely from the sale of vaccines for her entire career? Honestly, I’m not sure I can think of anyone less qualified to lead the opposition movement in Ireland.
Do we judge people by the words they say or by their current and past actions and achievements, professional and personal? What tangible results has Ireland seen from Cahill’s efforts – other than perhaps a meaningless, symbolic bone thrown to them once in a while, for optics – and more vaccines? Anything? Of course not.
Hopefully we can all acknowledge (given the evidence) that Dolores Cahill is at the very least – an unqualified and inappropriate person to lead the resistance movement in Ireland, and more egregiously – working for intelligence agencies and globalists. Intelligent Irish people understand that there is no such thing as a safe vaccine and surely deserve someone without the types of revolting conflicts of interest that Dolores Cahill has – someone who will represent them admirably. Personally, if I saw her on the street, I would turn around and run in the opposite direction, as fast as I could. I certainly wouldn’t let this demon anywhere near my children or pets, or even near my plants – let alone trust her to represent me in government or anything health related – given her extreme ignorance on the basics of virology and vaccines and her glaringly obvious financial conflicts of interest.
By promoting nonsensical, outdated medical mythology, Cahill (like all others of her ilk) has exposed herself as a simpleton who is living in the dark ages, in regards to understanding the basics about health and what actually causes disease. Given these unavoidable basic facts, there is absolutely no reason for anyone to listen to this necromancer for valuable medical information, or look up to her as a “thought leader,” “expert,” or “health advocate” for the people. That’s just my opinion, and you are free to disagree, of course.
Dolores Cahill has just announced her latest business venture – The World Freedom Alliance. This website confirms that Dolores Cahill is a shareholder in companies that profit from vaccine manufacturing. If Dolores wants to be taken seriously as an advocate for health, shouldn’t she dissolve herself from these conflicts of interest? Doesn’t she have enough money laundering operations running already?
I’m sure her defense will be that the main opposition is the new experimental vaccines but that normal vaccines are generally safe, you see. That’s the deception these people are involved in. It’s an elaborate ruse to get us opposed only to the “unsafe” experimental vaccine, so that the “safe” vaccines will seem like a worthy and safe, alternative choice in comparison and thus normalized.
THE BOTTOM LINE – THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SAFE VACCINE
This is the undeniable truth and the elephant in the room that all of these Pro-Vax virus lovers continue to ignore. Why isn’t there a single leader in the so-called “anti-vaccine” movement who is truly 100% against all vaccines and admits that there are no such things as viruses?
Because they are all running an elaborate operation to hide the truth. They can’t admit that these viruses don’t exist because if they do that, then they also must admit that the entire concept of a vaccine is a lie, which stops the gravy train right in its tracks.

Boris Johnson called climate protesters ‘uncooperative Krusties’. But his deranged dad ‘Stanley Johnson’ supports government controlled opposition and fake protesters funded by George Soros “Extinction Rebellion”
Boris’s father, Stanley Johnson has been writing books promoting depopulation for almost fifty years now; starting with ‘Life without Birth: A Journey Through the Third World in Search of the Population Explosion’ published all the way back in 1970.
He’s also a former employee of the World Bank and the European Commission; two of the most prominent promoters of ‘Carbon’ taxation; which would increase the cost of both food and fuel, exponentially. Resolving, they hope, the ‘population issue’.
Stanley was Head of Prevention of Pollution Division at the European Commission (1973 to 1979) and Conservative MEP for Wight and Hampshire East (1979 to 1984).
His first wife (Boris’ mother) Charlotte Johnson Wahl “made her name as a professional portrait painter” for Crispin Tickell; the UN spook who first convinced Margret Thatcher to introduce the concept of CO2 driven ‘climate change’ into mainstream British politics in a speech she gave to the Royal Society, in September 1988.
Sir Crispin is a direct descendent of Thomas Henry Huxley (known as Darwin’s bulldog), one of the first promoters of Darwinism and Eugenics (leading to Government sterilisation policies all over the world).
This is what ‘climate change’ and the ‘environmental’ policies of the ruling class are really about: depopulation, to maintain control over land and resources.
Stanley Johnson’s works include…
The Green Revolution (1972)
The Population Problem (1973-4)
The Politics of Environment (1973)
Pollution Control Policy of the EEC (1978)
The Earth Summit: The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development UNCED [pronounced: ‘un-said’] (1993)
World Population – Turning the Tide (1994)
The Environmental Policy of the European Communities (1995)
The Politics of Population: Cairo (1994)
World Population and the United Nations (1987)
World Population Turning the Tide (1994)
UNEP The First 40 Years; A Narrative by Stanley Johnson (United Nations Environment Programme) (2012).
Boris Johnson called climate protesters ‘uncooperative crusties’. But his dad supports Extinction Rebellion
It’s been a turbulent few weeks for the Johnson family.
Just weeks after Boris Johnson became prime minister, his brother Jo Johnson resigned from government and as an MP, citing a difficulty to reconcile personal matters with the “national interest”.
Then, Johnson’s sister Rachel appeared to slap down his Brexit plans, suggesting he was being pressurised by people who stand to make money from a no-deal Brexit. She also branded comments he made in the House of Commons “reprehensible”.
This time, the PM seems to be the one throwing jabs.
Speaking at the launch in London of the third volume of Margaret Thatcher’s biography by journalist Charles Moore, Johnson branded Extinction Rebellion climate protestors as “uncooperative crusties”.
He then said they should abandon their “hemp-smelling bivouacs” and stop blocking the streets of London.
A remark like this from a disgruntled Tory prime minister might not seem out of the ordinary, particularly from someone like Boris Johnson.
But there’s just one problem
Johnson’s dad, Stanley Johnson, seems to be a supporter of Extinction Rebellion. He’s worn the Extinction Rebellion badge and has photographed himself next to their protests.
Neither of the men have commented on their apparent differences on this issue, but we’re sure it won’t be long before this family tension rears its head.

Humanity has been lied to on so many levels. This has been the foundation of The Matrix, which has imprisoned and enslaved all of us for so long. The Germ Theory is one of the many lies we’ve been told and made to believe.
The essence of the Germ Theory is that we are surrounded 24/7 by dangerous contagions. Is there a more effective way to instill fear in large parts of the population? This very notion is contradictory to the fact that we live in an abundant, loving and nurturing reality. We need to understand that germs do not cause diseases like we are always taught.
Warning! Dangerous germs ahead!
Of course, I am not denying that diseases exist. Dis-ease is real. But I am pointing out that germs are not the cause. We will talk about the real cause later. But first, we need to empty our cups of knowledge to make room for the truth.
Germ Theory leads to madness
Pretty much the entire world population has witnessed first hand what the Germ Theory has gotten us into in the year 2020. Because of a single virus, entire nations ordered draconian lock-downs. Family members couldn’t visit their sick or dying parents and grandparents in nursing homes. Children were forced to wear masks, social distance and were taught that their presence could be a danger to others. Whole economies were ruined because of a danger that wasn’t even real to begin with. In 2020, a lot of unnecessary suffering has been created because humanity was indoctrinated with the false belief of the Germ Theory. All of it could have been avoided if we had known the truth.
Germ paranoia – How insane must society be to even consider this to be acceptable?
The war on germs is the direct result of the Germ Theory. We look at germs as the enemy which needs to be destroyed while completely forgetting the fact that germs have been part of this reality since the dawn of time. Every organism on this planet plays a crucial role. This includes germs as well, and I will explain it in more detail when I talk about the Terrain Theory.
Germs have been made the scapegoat for modern medicine. Our so called experts really go out of their way to fight this so called enemy. Have you ever noticed how in these fights, nobody ever talks about health? They always talk about the germ and whatever ludicrous ways they think of dealing with them. Nobody ever talks about environmental factors, healthier diets or exercise. Those are some of the most important things to consider if you want to live a healthy life. It’s like talking about war all the time while intending to achieve peace. The Law of Attraction clearly shows that it doesn’t work this way. Diseases are not caused by germs, and going to war with them is not helping us one bit.
Psychological Warfare against our own children – all because of Germ Theory propaganda
Unfortunately, a lot of our so called modern medicine is all about waging this war. To understand health and dis-ease, we need to learn the potential as well as limitations of modern medicine, which we will do later. But first, let’s take a look into history.
The founder of the Germ Theory
The Germ Theory has been around for a very long time. But it wasn’t until the 19th century, when a man called Louis Pasteur, through his work, pushed it into mainstream acceptance. His work also led to the wide spread use of vaccinations, one of the most horrible crimes committed against humanity.
I suggest you to read the Wikipedia article about Louis Pasteur. Even on mainstream Wikipedia, you can find interesting information, some of which doesn’t put him in a good light at all. For instance, he always kept his notes and protocols secret from public. It was only in 1964, when Pasteur’s descendant donated the papers to the French National Library. Why didn’t Louis Pasteur show details of his work to the public? What did he keep secret? He certainly didn’t seem like a virtuous person who believed in the power of truth and honesty.
Consequently, there are a few people who criticize his work. Some call it unscientific, deceitful and misleading, and I believe this is well deserved, considering the unnecessary suffering the acceptance of the false Germ Theory has created over the decades.
Interestingly, Louis Pasteur suffered a severe brain stroke when he was only 46 years old. For all the praise this man gets for his work in disease prevention and treatment, he didn’t seem to be in good health himself. A stroke is a serious issue and does not just happen. It is a clear sign of poor health, especially when it happens at such a young age. To be fair, at least he managed to live until he was 72 years old, although it’s unlikely he really thrived after the stroke he experienced.
Some sources claim that on his death bed, Louis Pasteur said:
Bernard was correct. I was wrong. The microbe (germ) is nothing. The terrain (milieu) is everything.
Claude Bernard, along with Antoine Béchamp, proposed the Terrain Theory, which was mostly at odds with Pasteur’s Germ Theory. It’s not confirmed that Louis Pasteur actually stated this, but the content is true nevertheless. Despite this, the Germ Theory was pushed into the mainstream narrative through advertising and propaganda, leaving the Terrain Theory on the wayside and almost forgotten by the public.
Germ Theory vs. Terrain Theory: Which seems to make more sense to you?
It’s worthwhile to look into Béchamp’s Wikipedia article as well. You will realize that much less is written about him, and what is there seems to be very critical compared to all the praise Louis Pasteur gets. It’s worth remembering that mainstream Wikipedia has an interest to propose the narrative of Germ Theory, despite its obvious flaws, which we will talk about now.
But before we do, I’d like to point out that Béchamp died at the age of 91 years. So, when talking about health and disease, would you rather listen to somebody who lived for 72 years and had a stroke at the age of 46, or someone who lived for 91 years? I’m just saying.
The flaws of the Germ Theory
When we take a closer look, we will find that the Germ Theory is full with flaws. And to retain any credibility, these flaws are usually explained through often pathetic arguments.
To begin with, Louis Pasteur made one crucial mistake. He assumed that the healthy human body is sterile, e.g. free of any germs. But we know that this is not true at all. Especially our intestines are filled with bacteria, which are required for properly digesting our food. It is said that the average human body consists of more foreign organisms than of human cells. Think about that. Germs are a part of us. For all purposes, we are those germs and they are us. It is a symbiotic relationship.
Modern medicine states that some diseases are asymptomatic. That means that we don’t always develop symptoms (get sick) when we get infected with a germ. In proper science, there is the rule of cause and effect. According to the Germ Theory, diseases are caused by germs. Germs are the cause. Disease is the effect. So when you introduce the cause, the effect must follow. If not, your model is not correct or at least incomplete.
Modern medicine uses the excuse of asymptomatic diseases to not address this obvious flaw. They tell us diseases are caused by germs. But obviously, some infected people develop symptoms and get sick, while others don’t. So what makes the difference? We can get infected with some disease now but only develop symptoms later, sometimes after months or years. How can this be explained? The Terrain Theory explains this perfectly well, but the Germ Theory falls totally flat. It has no answer. It seems like whoever gets sick and who doesn’t appears to be random in modern medicine. That just shows how unscientific the Germ Theory really is.
The immune system
Modern medicine came up with the idea of an immune system to explain why some people get infected from germs and some don’t, even though this still doesn’t explain the problem with asymptomatic diseases. This is merely a pathetic attempt to safe the credibility of the Germ Theory.
To be fair, there is some truth to the concept of an immune system. Every living organism tries to maintain homeostasis at all times. This means that every body is self regulating to ensure optimal biological and chemical functions. This is why every wound or even broken bones heal by themselves over time. It also ensures that pathogens and unwanted foreign material get expelled from the body or inhibited from entering through various means. Homeostasis has some similarities with the so called innate immune system.
What modern medicine doesn’t understand is that every infectious disease is in fact one of the body’s ways to restore optimal biological and chemical functions. Instead, they scapegoat the germs for being the cause when in reality, the cause is something very different. It’s like accusing firefighters for arson. Homeostasis is an important part of the Terrain Theory, so we will talk about it in more detail later.
“Firefighters are always found on the scene… They must have caused the fire!” – Germ Theory logic
However, the real problem with the immune system lies in the concept of the adaptive immune system. That is where antibodies, white blood cells and vaccines come into play. If vaccines are so successful, how can vaccinated people get the disease they are vaccinated against and unvaccinated people stay healthy (or even healthier)? Is it just bad luck? That is not how proper science works. Once again, the Terrain Theory can provide a logical answer. Vaccines have never been effective against preventing diseases because the whole Germ Theory behind it is a fraud. We will talk about other issues with vaccines later.
According to the adaptive immune system, exposure to pathogens creates immunity. But every flu season, a lot of people get sick. Is it always a different pathogen? Our experts love to come up with bogus explanations like “the virus has mutated”. Isn’t it more likely that the Germ Theory is simply false and something else is going on every year?
It is actually possible to become completely oblivious to any sort of dis-ease. There are people who lived dis-ease free for decades. They literally never get sick! Now, do you think it is because they are never exposed to germs? I doubt it. At the same time, certain lifestyle changes from such individuals will, without any exception, lead to dis-ease. Again, lifestyle changes usually don’t have anything to do with germs. We need to understand the true cause for dis-ease. With that knowledge, we become able to prevent or cure it.
Overall, the concept of an immune system is nothing more but a poor adaptation of the process of homeostasis. It leaves a lot of contradictions and open questions. Homeostasis and the Terrain Theory on the other hand are sound and accurately describe the whole picture of what is going on. The Germ Theory couldn’t even stand on its own feet without stealing a few ideas from the process of homeostasis and calling it immune system. And even then, a lot of things still don’t make sense at all.
“Uncurable” diseases
Modern medicine as we know it today has started to really take off around the end of the 19th century. Louis Pasteur of course played a crucial role in this process. Now, let’s take a hard look at what modern medicine has achieved after more than 100 years.
Obviously, a lot of health issues have been solved. In the 19th century and before, child mortality was high, which was the main reason for low average life expectancy. People were suffering and dying from cholera, smallpox, measles and many other ailments. Modern medicine praises vaccinations for the eradication of such diseases, but as we shall see, improved hygiene and sanitation is actually responsible for this. In the 19th century, many people were living in filth, so it’s no surprise that diseases were wide spread.
Rotting dead animals, horse manure and waste matter on the streets in the 19th century – No wonder people got sick
Nowadays, we have greatly improved sanitation, so we no longer have problems with diseases of the past. But look at our population as a whole. Are we truly healthier than before? How can we explain the skyrocketing numbers of people suffering from cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer, autism, arthritis, allergies and auto-immune diseases? We have literal epidemics of these new diseases with numbers getting higher and higher every year. Not to mention that those are only the most severe present-day health problems. Take a look at today’s average human. Conditions have gone so bad that we even consider it “normal” to be slightly overweight, have a cold or flu once or twice a year or die unnaturally and prematurely from some type of disease. All of this is anything but normal!
If the Germ Theory is true, why didn’t it lead to better overall health? Why, after more than 100 years, is our society still generally not in great health? Why does the opposite seem to happen, with humans getting sicker and sicker every year? Of course, modern medicine is puzzled by all of this. It can’t provide an answer. Clearly, the new diseases of the 20th century can’t be explained with the Germ Theory.
Some experts are so clueless that they start looking for germs causing these problems. But of course, this is a dead end. Some diseases are even blamed on genes. Bullshit. As we know, our DNA is not fixed in stone. We can actually change it. Everything is in our control. Blaming it on genes really means saying “It’s not in our power. There’s nothing we can do about that.” when in reality, we very well can and should.
“I’m sorry. There’s nothing more we can do for you.” – How many unnecessary death sentences have been spoken out of ignorance?
To this day, modern medicine has not been able to understand and prevent cancer despite the massive amounts of resources poured into this field of research. It’s because most of modern medicine is based on false models and assumptions. They simply do not understand dis-ease. That is why they say that some diseases can’t be cured, when in reality, they can. As a general rule, all living tissue is still able to regain homeostasis and therefore return to its intended optimal functioning.
As we can see, the Germ Theory only seems able to explain a small part of what is happening. It is not a model that accurately describes the bigger picture, therefore we can’t take it to be the whole truth. On the other hand, the Terrain Theory perfectly explains the occurrence of cholera, smallpox, measles as well as cancer, autism or auto-immune disease. In fact, it explains almost every disease in existence, because as we shall see, there really is only one dis-ease.
Koch’s postulates
If you are still not questioning the validity of the Germ Theory at this point, you probably will after I expose how it doesn’t even stand against proper science.
Robert Koch was a German physician and microbiologist. He is famous for coming up with the Koch’s postulates. These are four criteria to scientifically prove that a certain disease is caused by a specific microorganism. They are:
The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy organisms.
The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.
The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism.
The microorganism must be re-isolated from the inoculated, diseased experimental host and identified as being identical to the original specific causative agent.
This is what the early proponents of the Germ Theory came up with themselves! Scientifically speaking, they are quite sound steps to proof the Germ Theory. First, you ensure that the germ only occurs in infected, sick organisms and not in healthy ones. Second, you take a sample of the germ from an infected organism and grow it in a pure culture, completely free of contaminants or other substances. Third, the germ sample is introduced into a healthy organism, which must then develop exactly the same symptoms/disease like the infected organism. Forth, you take a germ sample from the previously healthy organism and ensure that it is identical to the cultivated germ from the infected organism.
You may be interested to know that mainstream science has failed to fulfill the Koch’s postulates again and again. Remember that in proper science, all four postulates must be fulfilled.
Even Robert Koch himself realized that some germs, like cholera, didn’t even fulfill the first criteria. Instead of admitting that the Germ Theory may in fact be wrong, he simply decided that the first postulate is not really important anyway. So what he did was basically saying: “My results don’t even match my initial theory. So let’s just ease up on our scientific criteria instead of changing our believes, eh?” How is this proper science? Are we supposed to trust people who work like that?
Now, read the third postulate carefully. Do you notice something? It says “should” instead of “must”. Like explained above, this is not even properly following the law of cause and effect. According to the Germ Theory, claiming that an infection only has a 1% chance to cause disease is not scientific. We must ask: What makes the difference between the 1% and the 99%? If we follow this question to its end, we inevitably arrive at the Terrain Theory.
The forth postulate ties in with the Contagion myth, which I will debunk in a minute. For now, I want to emphasize how modern medicine can’t even deliver any real proof according to its own scientific criteria! Any proper scientist with a conscience would have to accept the validity of the Koch’s postulates. But instead of acknowledging that their own experiences disapprove the Germ Theory, scientists started to criticize the Koch’s postulates and even came up with new criteria that match their preconceived believes. Nowadays, the so called scientific evidence to back the Germ Theory is a complete mumbo jumbo of false assumptions, shaky theories, confusing scientific terms and complicated microbiological processes which nobody really understands. And all of this is used to somehow defend the dead birth called Germ Theory.
The contagion myth
A crucial part of the Germ Theory is the idea that diseases can be spread through transmission of germs. We simply accept this to be true. After all, everyone at least once experienced “catching a cold” from a close friend or family member, right? But what if all of this is just a myth and there are different reasons for what looks like a contagion?
Think about it. How is developing the same symptoms like an infected person after a few days any hard proof for an actual contagion? Isn’t it possible that it’s simply a correlation instead of a causation? I can think of different explanations why it may seem as if diseases can be transmitted.
For instance, family members often follow similar diets and lifestyles. So if those are rather poor, chances are high that when one person gets sick and starts the process of homeostasis, another one just may experience the same soon afterwards. Also, could environmental factors like air pollution, harmful electromagnetic radiation, poor water quality, the climate or lack of sunshine play an important role? I most certainly think so, and these factors often affect entire neighborhoods, communities or even nations. Like mentioned above, there are people who have never been sick for decades. These individuals have put in a lot of effort to get the above factors working well for them. You can try coughing and sneezing at these people. They won’t get infected, because that is simply not how it works.
However, the biggest issue I have with the Contagion myth is that it can’t explain the beginning of the infection chain. Where does the first infected person come from? Or, if it’s supposedly originally transmitted by an animal, where does the first infected animal come from? And what about all those newly discovered germs? Have they always been here, or did they come out of nowhere? If they have always been here, humans should have sufficient immunity against them according to the Germ Theory, right?
If diseases are spread in a domino-like chain reaction, what is the cause for the first stone to fall?
If they are new, where did they come from and how could the first individual get infected? The only explanation could be artificial creation and infection. But humanity has suffered from diseases so much and for so long, is it really possible that it has always been man-made for thousands of years? Do you see how it doesn’t make any sense at all? The Terrain Theory can explain why people get sick and what mechanisms are responsible for diseases to manifest. It has nothing to do with contagious germs that spread among living beings.
Do you remember the forth Koch’s postulate? It states that after transmission of a germ and a resulting infection, the germs from both the source as well as the infected organism must be identified as being the same germ. I would even go further to say that they must be genetically directly related with each other.
Using the domino-effect analogy, it must be ensured that two consecutive stones must belong to the same set of domino stones. They can’t be two consecutive stones of different sets of domino stones. Why is this important? Because this distinction would either proof or dismiss the Contagion myth. But to my knowledge, such a proof has never been delivered.
The contagion myth is a big lie. I dare you to prove me wrong. Show me a study where the forth Koch’s postulate is fulfilled by proving that the genetic code of both the source as well as the infected organism are related to each other, indicating that the infected organism’s germs are in fact the children/descendants of the source’s germs. Do this through genetic marking or through any other means necessary. Do whatever it takes to proof that the germs in the infected organism could neither have been there before nor created through the process of homeostasis, but instead can only be explained by a transmission of germs through an undeniable direct genetic relation. I have not yet seen a convincing study like this that would irrefutably proof the Contagion myth, and with it, the Germ Theory.
Viruses have never been proven
If you already think I sound like a blasphemer, wait until you read what I have to say about viruses.
Unlike bacteria, viruses are so small that they cannot be seen through an optical microscope. All the images of viruses we have seen are rendered from electronic microscopes and other sophisticated technology. Are you aware how most of us instinctively react anxious to the images of spiky viruses and other germs? Do you think that decade-long propaganda plays a role in this? The whole Germ Theory is part of a bigger agenda.
SARS-CoV-2, a “deadly virus” so small, you can’t even see it through an optical microscope
Anyway, Virology is a relatively young sub-field of microbiology. Do you know how the idea of an infectious virus actually arose? A man called Dmitri Ivanovsky looked into why tobacco plants developed diseases. His studies showed that it couldn’t be a bacterial infection, so he concluded that it must have been a different pathogen, one that is so small it could pass the filtration system. And with this, the virus was born.
Basically, the idea of an infectious virus came out of necessity. According to the Germ Theory, scientists simply couldn’t explain the cause of certain diseases. It’s the same old story: “Our experience doesn’t match our believes, so we invent some bogus explanation to remain credible.” The virus was nothing more but a welcomed scapegoat to falsely blame the cause of diseases on it.
But what is a virus really? Its nature is controversial even among biologists. It’s not really clear whether a virus is considered a living being or not. It does have its own DNA or RNA, but neither a cell structure nor its own metabolism. A virus is a seemingly parasitic entity, starting to reproduce out of living host cells after an infection.
If it is a parasite, why would a virus pose a danger to its host body by reproducing uncontrollably when its very own survival depends on the host? Also, how does a virus manage to stay alive while dormant? Isn’t it more likely that viruses are nothing more but cellular debris? Are viruses simple by-products whenever an organism goes through the process of restoring homeostasis?
There are many different ways to identify a virus. Most common methods include anti-body tests and PCR tests. Anti-body tests don’t test for the actual virus. Instead, a person’s blood is checked for antibodies against a certain virus.
The PCR test on the other hand is a method to identify a virus by its genetic code. In layman’s terms, this means taking a sample and multiplying the genetic code through specific procedures. Because the PCR test effectively manipulates the original sample, it’s very prone to error. It’s also worth noting that identifying a genetic code is not the same as identifying a dangerous viral entity. By the way, the PCR test was also widely used during the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. This was heavily criticized as it produced a lot of false positives through the massive testing. But, as we now all know, this was just one of many things going wrong during the entire Corona hoax.
Both the antibody test as well as the PCR test are not reliable to prove the existence of a virus. And even if they were, it still doesn’t prove that viruses are harmful and dangerous or that the Germ Theory is true. The only real scientific proof would have to come from using the Koch’s postulates mentioned above as sound scientific criteria. However, no such proof was ever delivered for any virus, ever! The whole viral theory is a lie and Dr. Robert O. Young explains this in more detail. He even offered a 5 million USD reward for anyone who could prove the existence of HIV using the Koch’s postulates. Why, after decades, is still nobody able to deliver?
By the way, it is interesting to know that according to Wikipedia, “virus” originally meant “venom” and “virulent” derives from the latin word “virulentus”, meaning “a poisoned wound” or “full of poison”. I find this very telling and this tidbit of information really points more to the validity of the Terrain Theory instead of the Germ Theory.
If the Germ Theory is a lie, is it okay to stop using antiseptics and wallow in filth?
I can see the potential for misunderstanding, so I will clarify a few things. My intention is not to encourage you to roll around in mud like a pig. Even though germs are not the cause of dis-ease, exposure to filth, especially over long periods, can negatively affect your health. Cleanliness is one important factor which should not be neglected.
However, do not mistake cleanliness with Germ Paranoia. It is not only unnecessary, but even harmful to disinfect everything and everyone. Remember that our bodies consist of more foreign life forms than human cells. Killing germs literally means killing ourselves. Take a close look at all the products you may using in your home, whether it’s cleaning supplies or cosmetic products. Try to go minimalistic and as natural as possible to avoid chemical substances as much as you can. Industrial products generally have a negative impact on our health.
Mass disinfection after 2020’s Corona Virus outbreak – Pure madness which causes more harm than it does good
Still, there is one good reason to use disinfectants or antiseptics. It is still particularly important to keep a sterile environment in hospitals and similar places. However, it is not because germs are generally dangerous and contagious. It is simply because hospitalized people are usually already very sick and frail people. If they weren’t, they probably wouldn’t have ended up there in the first place.
In hospitals, we have many people whose body’s integrity has already been compromised through inappropriate lifestyles or outer influences. Or in other words, their inner terrain is already very filthy, which makes it an ideal breeding ground for germs. Also, by getting surgery or a medical procedure in which skin is cut, the patient loses its most important defense to prevent unwanted or foreign matter to enter the body, thus making him or her even more susceptible.
However, according to the Terrain Theory, these issues are much less significant for anybody with a clean inner terrain. These individuals are very unlikely to get an infection, even through open wound exposure. It’s also noteworthy that their wounds heal much quicker than those whose body’s integrity has been compromised. If all humans would live a healthy lifestyle, there wouldn’t even be a need for sterile hospitals since our bodies would be able to get through treatment without any infection. This reality may be hard to imagine now, but I have no doubt that it is indeed possible.
Generally speaking, if you want to be healthy, you focus on providing the right inner and outer environment through an appropriate lifestyle instead of killing off any germs you come across. That is basically the essence of the Terrain Theory.
Final words
I am aware that I have been rather aggressive in debunking the Germ Theory. The reason for this is simple. After decades of mass propaganda and indoctrination, society is very resistant to see through this huge lie. I have chosen rather strong words to break through the walls of brainwashed minds. If you have gotten this far, chances are high that you have already begun the process of seeing through the manipulation.
At this point, I will also admit that some truth can actually be found in the fraud which is the Germ Theory, but not in the sense in which it is usually propagated. On a certain level of existence, diseases can actually be transmitted. It’s basically the same way in which a big old smile can be contagious. It happens on an emotional and energetic level. Remember that everything is energy. This includes germs and diseases.
Disease is a low-frequency vibration. According to the Law of Attraction, we can only get sick when our own energy signature resonates with this low frequency. Unless we are very careful and aware, close and frequent proximity to other disease-susceptible people can affect our own vibration negatively. This, of course, is not contagion as we are told it is.
On the other hand, raising our own vibration to high levels through a proper lifestyle will ensure that we experience the bliss that comes with good health, while also positively affecting others around us. The Terrain Theory also covers this and is once again a sound model of reality, including the effects in the energetic dimension just as well.
I know that all this new information may be hard to digest. Just give yourself plenty of time. Do your own research. Have the courage to question the things we are told, especially when something doesn’t make sense to you. But most importantly, continue reading the other articles in this chapter, as they will help you shift your mindset from the false Germ Theory to the accurate Terrain Theory by connecting all the dots.

Germ Theory: The Lynchpin Holding the Entire Hoax Together
There’s no such thing as a contagious “virus.” Unbelievable? Shocking? Yes, it is. Here are quotations from doctors, authors and experts that refute Louis Pasteur’s fraudulent “germ theory.”
This is the lynchpin issue that holds this entire planned-demic together. When you disprove the theory that so-called viruses can be transmitted through the air from one person to another, the entire house of cards falls to the ground:
“The entire fabric of the germ theory of disease rests upon assumptions which not only have not been proved, but which are incapable of proof, and many of them can be proved to be the reverse of truth. The basic one of the unproven assumptions, wholly due to Pasteur, is the hypothesis that all the so-called infections and contagious disorders are caused by germs.” — M.L. Leverson, M.D. “… Viruses are simply the excretions of a toxic cell. Viruses are pieces of DNA or RNA, with a few other proteins. They butt out from the cell. They happen when the cell is poisoned. They are not the cause of anything.” — Dr. Thomas Cowan, M.D., commenting on Rudolf Steiner’s insights
“We said before that so-called ‘germs’ are ubiquitous. They are ever present, in many varying forms in both healthy and sick people. These microbes kick into what modern scientists call ‘pathogens,’ when the media is toxic and conducive to clean up. When you enter into a healing crisis, and your body is throwing off toxins, these ‘germs’ appear out of your very substance, to help eliminate, process and break down these toxins. Germs have absolutely no causal relationship to disease. But germs do appear to help you clean out, because put quite simply, your disease is your cure!” — Dr. William P. Trebing, author of “Good-Bye Germ Theory,” page 154 “If the Germ Theory were true, no one would be alive to believe it.” — B.J. Palmer, D.C.
“Three criteria are, according to the scientific method needed to properly identify a virus. It must be isolated from a host cell. As of 2016 this has never been accomplished in humans. It must be photographed and it’s diameter measured. As of 2016 this has never been accomplished in humans. It must be biochemically characterized. As of 2016 this has never been accomplished in humans. This has never been done with any virus (herpes, hepatitis, h1n1, bird flu, swine flu, influenza, polio, measles) let alone HIV, HPV, SARS, Zika or Ebola.” — Viruses. How Much is that Dogma in the Window?, New Medicine Online “We agree with those members of the profession who hold that no germ causes tuberculosis. Germs do not cause any disease. Further, we agree that there is more harm in the fear of germs than there is in the germs themselves.” — Simon Louis Katzoff, M.D., author of Timely Truths on Human Health, 1921 “Germs seek their natural habitat: diseased tissue, rather than being the cause of diseased tissue.” Rudolf Virchow
“The general public have been told that we do not become ill except when germs penetrate into from without. The germ theory of disease is ridiculous.” — E. Douglas Hume, author of Bechamp or Pasteur, A Lost Chapter in the History of Biology “Medical doctors are working on the germ theory of disease… But the germ theory is already weakening and is due for being thrown aside. Dr. Fraser of Canada and Dr. Powell of California have experimented with billions of germs of all varieties, but they have been unable to produce a single disease by the introduction of germs into human subjects. Dr. Waite tried for years to prove the germ theory, but he could not do so. During the World War an experiment was conducted at Gallop’s Island Massachusetts, in which millions of influenza germs were injected into over one hundred men at the Government hospital, and no one got the flu. Germs are scavengers.” — Principles and Practice of Naturopathy, E.W. Cordingley, M.D., N.D., A.M.
“You’re working under a wrong premise to begin with and you’re never going to find the answer if you do that.
Viruses have no nucleus. There’s no respiratory system. There’s no circulatory system. There’s no digestive system.
Therefore, Viruses are not alive.
That’s like saying soap is alive. They’re not alive. They are solvents. They are soaps. However, more accurately, they are enzymes to fractionate tissue for waste elimination.” — Aajonus Vonderplanitz
“We must infer that at least some and probably all three of those Russian peasants died because of Pasteur’s vaccine, as did uncounted people later on… Only one thing is sure: ever since Pasteur developed his “vaccine,” the cases of death from rabies have increased, not diminished.” — Hans Ruesch, animal rights activist and pioneer of the anti-vivisection movement
“Had it not been for the mass selling of vaccines, Pasteur’s germ theory of disease would have collapsed into obscurity.” — E. Douglas Hume, author of Bechamp or Pasteur, A Lost Chapter in the History of Biology
“The culprit however, is not the microbe. It is the level of toxicity you have in your own blood stream.” — Good-Bye Germ Theory, Dr. William P. Trebing, 2006 “We must look rationally at the bacterial issue. Consider the fact that many tribes ate primarily unsalted raw meat, unsalted raw fats and/or unsalted raw dairy products from the beginning. They did not wash their hands or sterilize their food before eating. Every form of natural bacteria, including salmonella, E. coli and campylobacter were eaten with their food abundantly and constantly. Why were they vibrant, healthy and disease free if microbes are the culprits?” — Aajonus Vonderplanitz, The Recipe for Living Without Disease
“In all that I have witnessed inside and outside of laboratories, there is only one cause of disease: Industrial pollution in medication, food, air, soil and water. Strengthening a body’s constitution and lymphatic system is the first step to reversing/curing disease” — Aajonus Vonderplantiz
“Germs cannot be the cause of disease, because disease germs are also found in healthy bodies.” — H. Lindlahr, M.D., author of Nature Cure
“In 1915, another medical doctor wrote an article for the top British medical journal Lancet. Dr. Montais studied 21 cases of tetanus, each of whom had received Pasteurian inoculation. The conclusion of the article, which appeared in the 23 Oct 1915 issue, was that in every case, the tetanus had been caused by the inoculation. Dr. Montais said that ‘Pasteur had created a new form of disease.’” — The Post-Antibiotic Age: Germ Theory, Dr. Tim O’Shea
“What’s happening is, like I said, we have colds, which are mainly bacterial, which go feed on toxic tissue that’s been damaged – we don’t eat well enough, we don’t eat all raw and therefore we accumulate toxicity. So bacteria have to come in and eat that waste product because we can’t keep up with all the waste. OK. So that’s what a cold is. Flu is mainly viral. Some bacteria may be active during flu. Some areas of our bodies may not be so contaminated that bacteria – the natural way that we cleanse with bacteria when we’re overloaded with toxicity or waste products, will help us. But when we are so toxic that the bacteria are poisoned by the tissue, from chemical inundation, then we have to make solvents. Each cell makes a solvent. Each cell makes a soap to help clean itself. And it’s a union. It’s like a factory. All the particular cells get together and say, “Let’s make this to help clean ourselves.” So they make enzymes which we will call soap to do that. So there’s nothing dormant about it. It’s just that when the accumulation of industrially contaminated waste is so great and you can’t use microbes then the cells make solvents, that is, viruses we call flu.” — Aajonus Vonderplani
“Any kind of flu is the same thing. When the climate and temperature are right, certain tissues will cleanse. They may have a 7-years cycle. They may have a 6-months cycle. It depends upon the tissue and how contaminated it is. If certain tissue needs to cleanse every two years, our bodies will create, if waste tissue is too toxic for mircrobes, our bodies will create a solvent (a virus) that fractionates and cleanses that particular tissue every two years, every 6 months, every 3 months, every 7 years, every 12 years, depending upon that tissue and how contaminated it is. The myth that herpes is contagious is pharmaceutical industry fiction to scare you into taking medication.” — Aajonus Vonderplanitz
“Actually bacteria are our symbiotic partners in both health and disease. They serve a useful role. As scavengers they make harmless or remove undesirable substances within our bodies. They also elaborate certain of our body needs. That is, they help build complex organic compounds from simple ingredients. A notable example of this is the production of vitamin B-12 in our intestines.” — Dr. T.C. Fry, author of The Vibrant Diet: The Timeless Guide to Eating Our Natural Biological Diet
“‘Infection’ is no war in which the body is fighting invaders. The bacteria that come to these sites are symbiotic and help the body in elaborating dead cells and tissues for expulsion-they are partners in the cleanup process. When this has been accumulated the bacteria disappear and the wound heals. Infection… is a body-cleaning process for a body burdened with toxic materials.” — Dr. T.C. Fry, author of The Vibrant Diet: The Timeless Guide to Eating Our Natural Biological Diet
“We need to re-direct our perspectives of microbes and see them in a new light. In terms of bacteria, for example, we need to appreciate them as: Bodily inhabitants who assist us in such ways as protecting us from other organisms (e.g. fungi), assisting in digestion and metabolism of food, synthesizing vitamins, and helping to eliminate waste materials.” — Dr. Paul Goldberg
“Do germs cause disease? Or could it be the other way around… first, the disease, then the germs. Natural Hygiene contends that germs do not cause disease. They are not the originators. Most diseases occur when people allow themselves to become enervated, that is, low in nerve energy. As a consequence, the organs of excretion fail to function normally and waste material accumulates in the body. When this waste continues to build up, exceeding the body’s toleration point, a crisis arises. The body, to offset this overabundance of poisonous matter, begins to react. The result of this reaction is sometimes a cold, the flu, pneumonia, or some such, depending on the individual. At this crisis point of elimination, germs may or may not be present. They are sure to come later, not to attack, but to assist in the cleanup or cleansing process.” — Dr. Alec Burton, M.Sc., D.O., D.C.
“Hygienists object to the germ theory of disease because germs do not cause disease. They may be present in disease processes, and they many complicate a disease with their waste products which can be very toxic at times, but the germ or virus alone is never the sole cause of disease.” — Dr. Virginia Vetrano, D.Sc
“Germs are saprophytes; that is, they live off dead and decaying organic matter. Bacteria are actually our benefactors. They decompose our excretions, helping to rid the system of them. Bacteria are non-toxic, and non-virulent as long as body secretions and excretions are normal. When toxemia exists, that is, when metabolic wastes accumulate in the system in excess, causing the secretions and excretions of the body to become abnormal and poisonous, a non-pathogenic bacterium can turn into a so-called pathogenic one simply by feeding on toxic wastes. Bacteria excrete toxic waste only when human secretions are abnormal and when the cells of the body are killed by excessive toxic saturation, bacteria go to work to disorganize them and help the body rid itself of dead tissue. ‘Disease producing’ germs are often present in the absence of the disease they are supposed to cause. They are often found when an individual has not had the disease that a particular germ is supposed to cause and when the individual never develops the disease. Furthermore, in myriads of cases, a particular pathogenic germ is not present when the disease it is supposed to cause exists.” — Dr. Virginia Vetrano, D.Sc
“Germs do not cause disease! Nature never surrounded her children with enemies. It is the individual himself who makes disease possible in his own body because of poor living habits… Do mosquitoes make the water stagnant; or does stagnant water attract the mosquitoes? We should all be taught that germs are friends and scavengers attracted by disease, rather {than} enemies causing disease… As their internal environment is, so will be the attraction for any specific micro-organism… The germ theory and vaccination are kept going by Commercialism.” — Dr. Robert R. Gross
“Warmth, moisture, food-these are the causes that activate latent germs and arouse them to activity. They exist, all except the food, in the mouth, nose and throat at all times. The food is thrown out into these, as excretions, in disease. The germs feed on the excretions. They are scavengers. They were never anything else and will never be anything else. They break up and consume the discharge from the tissues. This is the function ascribed to germs everywhere in nature outside the body and is their real and only function in disease. They are purifying and beneficial agents. The medical profession has worked itself into hysteria over the germ theory and is using it to exploit an all too credulous public. Germs are ubiquitous. They are in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink. We cannot escape them. We can destroy them only to a limited extent. It is folly to attempt to escape disease by attempting to destroy or escape germs. Once they are in the body the physician has no means of destroying them that will not, at the same time, destroy the patient. We cannot avoid germs. We must be proof against them. We have to accept them as one of the joys of life.” — Dr. Herbert Shelton
“Just remember that there are no contagious diseases, just contagious habits which lower your vitality. There have been many people who have had diphtheria and yet no germ could be found. The same can be said of tuberculosis and other diseases. This is why the virus had to be discovered — to save the germ theory.” — Dr. Virginia Vetrano, D.Sc.
“Medical science is based on a false premise: namely, that diseases are caused by extraneous influences.” — Dr. John Henry Tilden, M.D., author of Toxemia Explained Vaccine Fraud: Centuries of Testimonials from Doctors and Researchers Proving that Vaccines are Dangerous and Profitable The first smallpox vaccine was conceptualized in 1796. Since that time, vaccination has been rife with controversy. Let’s review what writers, doctors, and scientists have observed about vaccines across three centuries: the 19th, 20th, and 21st… 19th Century (1800’s)
“There does not exist one single fact, in all the experiments and improvements made in science, which can support the idea of vaccination. A vaccinated people will always be a sickly people, short lived and degenerate.” — Dr. Alexander Wilder, MD, author of Vaccination: A Medical Fallacy, editor of the New York Medical Tribune, 1879
“I have seen leprosy and syphilis communicated by vaccination. Leprosy is becoming very common in Trinidad; its increase being coincident with vaccination.” — Dr. Hall Bakewell, Vaccinator General of Trinidad, 1868 “Cancer is reported to be increasing not only in England and the Continent, but in all parts of the world where vaccination is practiced.” — Dr. William S. Tebb, MA, MD, DPH, author of The Increase of Cancer, 1892 “Leprosy arose with vaccination.” — Sir Ronald Martin, MD, 1868
“Syphilis has undoubtedly been transmitted by vaccination.” — Sir William Osier Bt., MD, FRS, FRCP
“To no medium of transmission is the widespread dissemination of this class of disease (syphilis) so largely indebted as to Vaccination.” — Dr. B.F. Cornell, MD, 1868
“Every intelligent person who takes the time to investigate vaccination, will find abundant evidence in the published writings and public records of the advocates of vaccination, to prove its utter worthlessness, without reading a line of anti-vaccination literature. And if we could add to this all the suppressed facts, we would have a mass of evidence before which no vaccinator would dare to hold up his head.” — Dr. Robert A. Gunn, MD, Vaccination: Its Fallacies and Evils, 1882
“I have no faith in vaccination, nay, I look upon it with greatest disgust, and firmly believe that it is often the medium of conveying many filthy and loathsome diseases from one child to another, and it is no protection from smallpox.” — Dr. William Collins, MD, London, 1882
“Vaccination has made murder legal. Vaccination does not protect against smallpox, but is followed by blindness and scrofula. Jennerism (Edward Jenner, an English physician who was a contributor to the development of the smallpox vaccine) is the most colossal humbug which the human race has been burdened with by FRAUD and DECEIT.” — Mr. Mitchell, member of the British House of Commons
“Of these dogmas, I believe the practice known as vaccination to be the most absurd and most pernicious. I do not believe that a single person has ever been protected from smallpox by it; while I know that many serious bodily evils and even deaths, have resulted from its employment. The whole theory is founded upon assumption, contrary to common sense and entirely opposed to all known principles of physiology. Every physician of experience, has met with numerous cases of cutaneous emptions, erysipelas and syphilis, which were directly traceable to vaccination, and if these cases could be collected and presented in one report, they would form a more terrible picture than the worst that has ever been drawn of the horrors of smallpox.” — Dr. Robert A. Gunn, MD, Dean of the United States Medical College of New York “Vaccination is a monstrosity, a misbegotten offspring of error and ignorance; and, being such, it should have no place in either hygiene or medicine… Believe not in vaccination, it is a worldwide delusion, an unscientific practice, a fatal superstition with consequences measured today by tears and sorrow without end.” — Dr. Carlo Ruta, Professor of Materia Medica at the University of Perugia, Italy, 1896
“Vaccination is a grotesque superstition.” — Dr. Charles Creighton, MD, MA
“Vaccination is a gigantic delusion. It has never saved a single life. It has been the cause of so much disease, so many deaths, such a vast amount of utterly needless and altogether undeserved suffering, that it will be classed by the coming generation among the greatest errors of an ignorant and prejudiced age, and its penal enforcement the foulest blot.” — Alfred R. Wallace, LLD DUBL., DCL OXON., FRS, 1898 20th Century (1900’s)
“The great epidemics of deadly diseases, in animals and mankind, are caused by vaccination.” — Charles M. Higgins, author of The Horrors of Vaccination: Exposed and Illustrated, 1920
“I believe vaccination has been the greatest delusion that has ensnared mankind in the last three centuries. It originated in FRAUD, ignorance and error. It is unscientific and impracticable. It has been promotive of very great evil, and I cannot accredit it any good.” — Dr. R. K. Noyse, MD, Resident Surgeon of the Boston City Hospital, author of Self Curability of Disease
“The chief, if not the sole, cause of the monstrous increase in cancer has been vaccination.” — Dr. Robert Bell; Vice President, International Society for Cancer Research, British Cancer Hospital, 1922 “Vaccination is the most outrageous insult that can be offered to any pure-minded man or woman. It is the boldest and most impious attempt to mar the works of God that has been attempted for ages. The stupid blunder of doctor-craft has wrought all the evil that it ought, and it is time that free American citizens arise in their might and blot out the whole blood poisoning business.” — Dr. J.M. Peebles, MD, MA, PhD, author of Vaccination: A Curse and Menace to Personal Liberty, 1900 “Cancer was practically unknown until the cowpox vaccination began to be introduced. I have seen 200 cases of cancer, and never saw a case in an unvaccinated person.” — Dr. W.B. Clark, MD, Indiana, New York Times article, 1909
“At present, intelligent people do not have their children vaccinated, nor does the law now compel them to. The result is not, as the Jennerians prophesied, the extermination of the human race by smallpox; on the contrary more people are now killed by vaccination than by smallpox.” — George Bernard Shaw, Author and Playwright, 1944
“The English Ministry of Health omits to state that in 1872, when 85% of the infants born were vaccinated, there were 19,000 deaths from smallpox in England and Wales. While in 1925, when less than half the children born were vaccinated, there were only 6 deaths from that disease.” — Dr. Eleanor McBean, PhD, ND, author of The Poisoned Needle, 1957
“Vaccination causes miscarriage. A careful check showed that 47% of women who had been vaccinated in the second or third month of pregnancy, failed to give birth to a normal child.” — Vaccination at Work, The Consulting Pediatrician of Lanarkshire County Council, The Lancet (London), p.47, December 6, 1952
“My honest opinion is that vaccine is the cause of more disease and suffering than anything I could name.” — Dr. Harry R. Bybee
“Vaccination, instead of being the promised blessing to the world, has proved to be a curse of such sweeping devastation that it has caused more death and disease than war, pestilence, and plague combined. There is no scourge (with the possible exception of atomic radiation) that is more destructive to our nation’s health than this monument of human deception-this slayer of the innocent-this crippler of body and brain-the poisoned needle.” — Dr. Eleanor McBean, PhD, ND, author of The Poisoned Needle, 1957
“The greatest LIE ever told is that vaccines are safe and effective.” — Dr. Leonard Horowitz, MPH (Master of Public Health), DMD, MA, Harvard University graduate 21st Century (2000’s)
“The entire vaccine program is based on massive FRAUD.” — Dr. Russell L. Blaylock, M.D., neurosurgeon, editorial staff of Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons
“Vaccinations do not work. They don’t work at all.” — Dr. Lorraine Day, MD
“Vaccinations are now carried out for purely commercial reasons because they fetch huge profits for the pharmaceutical industry. There is no scientific evidence that vaccinations are of any benefit.” — Dr. Gerhard Buchwald, MD, author of Vaccination: A Business Based on FEAR
“Don’t get your flu shot.” — Dr. Raymond Francis, D.Sc., M.Sc., RNC, chemist, MIT graduate
“My own personal view is that vaccines are unsafe and WORTHLESS. I will not allow myself to be vaccinated again. Vaccines may be profitable but in my view, they are neither safe nor effective.” — Dr. Vernon Coleman, MB, ChB, DSc (Hon) “Everyone who is vaccinated is vaccine injured-whether it shows up right away or later in life.” — Dr. Shiv Chopra, B.V.S., A.H., M.Sc., PhD, Fellow of the World Health Organization, former senior scientist at Health Canada “The pediatrician indoctrinates your child from birth into a lifelong dependency on medical intervention. The first stage of indoctrination is the ‘well-baby’ visit. The well-baby visit is a cherished ritual of the pediatrician that enhances their income and does nothing constructive for your child. It’s a worthless visit.” — Dr. Robert Mendelsohn, MD, board certified pediatrician
“Vaccines are the backbone of the entire Pharmaceutical Industry. If they can make these children sick from a very early age, they become customers for life. The money isn’t really to be made in the vaccine industry. The money is made by Big Pharma with all of the drugs that are given to treat and address all of the illnesses that are subsequent to the side effects of vaccines.” — Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, D.O.
“Studies are increasingly pointing to the conclusion that vaccines represent a dangerous assault to the immune system leading to autoimmune diseases like Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Juvenile Onset Diabetes, Fibromyalgia, and Cystic Fibrosis, as well as previously rare disorders like brain cancer, SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), childhood leukemia, autism, and asthma.” — Dr. Zoltan Rona, M.D., author of Natural Alternatives to Vaccination
“The vaccine industry is itself a FRAUD. I spent my whole career studying vaccines.”– Dr. Shiv Chopra, B.V.S., A.H., M.Sc., Ph.D., Fellow of the World Health Organization, author of Corrupt to the Core
“The greatest danger to your health is the doctor who practices modern medicine.” — Dr. Robert Mendelsohn, MD, board certified pediatrician Here are more testimonials from the book The Poisoned Needle by Eleanor McBean (1957):
“I have been a regular practitioner of medicine in Boston for 33 years. I have studied the question of vaccination conscientiously for 45 years. As for vaccination as a preventative of disease, there is not a scrap of evidence in its favor. Injection of virus into the pure bloodstream of the people does not prevent Smallpox. Rather, it tends to increase its epidemics and makes the disease more deadly. Of this we have indisputable proof. In our country (U.S.) cancer mortality has increased from 9 per 100,000 to 80 per 100,000 or fully 900 per cent increase, within the past 50 years, and no conceivable thing could have caused this but the universal blood poisoning now existing.” — Dr. Charles E. Page, Boston
“After collecting the particulars of 400,000 cases of small pox I am compelled to admit that my belief in vaccination is absolutely destroyed.” — Professor Adolf Vogt, who held the chair of vital Statistics and Hygiene in Berne University for 17 years
“I have very little faith in Vaccination even as modifying the disease, and none at all as a protective in virulent epidemics. Personally, I contracted smallpox less than six months after a most severe re-vaccination.” — Dr. L Hall Bakewell, Vaccinator General of Trinidad
“Vaccination is the infusion of contaminating element into the system, and after such contamination you can never be sure of regaining the former purity of the body. Consumption follows in the wake of vaccination as certainly as effect follows cause.” — Dr. Alexander Wilder, Editor of the New York Medical Times, Professor of Pathology at the United States Medical College of New York and author of Wilder’s History of Medicine
“Vaccination does not stay the spread of smallpox nor even modify it in those who get it after vaccination. It does introduce into the system, and therefore contributes to the spread of, tuberculosis, cancer and even leprosy. It tends to make more virulent epidemics of smallpox and to make them more extensive. It does just what inoculation did – cause the spread of disease.” — Dr. Walter M. James, Philadelphia “I can add my testimony to the others… that vaccination contributes to the great increase in cancer.” — Dr. Forbes Laurie
“We have no proof of the boasted effectiveness of any form of anti-toxin, vaccine or serum. The true figures on vaccination for smallpox have never gotten before the public, though they can be seen in the files of the various departments of the Army as well as the government, if one cares to look for them. If the record of vaccination in the Philippines alone were ever to become a matter of general knowledge it would finish vaccination in the whole country, at least among those who are able to read and think for themselves. After three years of the most rigid vaccination, when every Philippino had been vaccinated from one to six times, there occurred the severest epidemic of smallpox that the Islands had ever seen, with a death-rate running in places to over 70 per cent, and in all, well over 60,000 deaths. Is it any wonder the public is getting a little suspicious of us and our vaunted ‘medical discoveries?’ The wonder to me is that there are still millions of them willing to submit to vaccination and serum treatment.” — Dr. William Howard Hay, Buffalo, New York “What hope is there for medical science to ever become a true science when the entire structure of medical knowledge is built around the idea that there is an entity called disease which can be expelled when the right drug is found?” — Dr. John Henry Tilden, M.D., author of Toxemia Explained
“There is no question but that perfect sanitation has almost obliterated smallpox, and sooner or later will dispose of it entirely. Of course, when the time comes, in all probability the credit will be give to vaccination.” — Dr. John Henry Tilden, M.D., author of Toxemia Explained
“It is simply no longer possible to believe much of the clinical research that is published, or to rely on the judgment of trusted physicians or authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and reluctantly over my two decades as editor of The New England Journal of Medicine” (1).
More recently, Richard Horton, editor of The Lancet, wrote that “The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness” (2). Source: Skeptical of medical science reports?https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4572812/… and furthermore: “The medical profession is being bought by the pharmaceutical industry, not only in terms of the practice of medicine, but also in terms of teaching and research. The academic institutions of this country are allowing themselves to be the paid agents of the pharmaceutical industry. I think it’s disgraceful” Dr Relman former chief editor for the New England Journal of Medicine.
“Any kind of flu is the same thing. When the climate and temperature are right, certain tissues will cleanse. They may have a 7-years cycle. They may have a 6-months cycle. It depends upon the tissue and how contaminated it is. If certain tissue needs to cleanse every two years, our bodies will create, if waste tissue is too toxic for mircrobes, our bodies will create a solvent (a virus) that fractionates and cleanses that particular tissue every two years, every 6 months, every 3 months, every 7 years, every 12 years, depending upon that tissue and how contaminated it is. The myth that herpes is contagious is pharmaceutical industry fiction to scare you into taking medication.” – Aajonus Vonderplanitz
Dr. William P. Trebing says this in the book Good-Bye Germ Theory: “The Human body’s energy fields are more powerful than most can even imagine. When one Human body is detoxing, an almost magnetic effect radiates out from such individuals causing the same purifying effects in the immediate environment of people around them. We are not witnessing epidemics or contagious infections; we are witnessing a group healing process which is totally natural to our species.” We can also perhaps compare it to how women all living in the same house synchronise their menstrual cycles. This, from the video ‘Germ Theory Deception Part 2’, can also help us understand what is occurring – Alex Loglia reciting the work of Dr. Bill Holub:
“What is really happening with these supposed epidemics is the following. Actually the word epidemic from the Greek, means literally on or at and people. And means something that happens to people as a group all at once – NOT a slow contagion. The actual epidemic process is very simple – remember that everyone already has their daily compliment of germs and remember also a large population of people, such as a town or a region of a city, is continually being exposed to the same environmental hazards all at the same time. For example large numbers of people are exposed to the same weather changes, water quality changes, pesticides, foods and water, contaminated food of a fast food chain, bad news in the media, batches of drugs and medication, holiday moods, air quality changes and many other toxic insults. The, quote on quote, group healing reaction to these toxic challenges is what you are seeing when people start coughing, sneezing or whatever. They are not catching it from each other. They are experiencing it with others. In addition, at many levels, we are all connected. About the only thing that is catching about all of this is paranoia. After all, medicine has had about a century to literally instil the fear of germs into our culture. So people fear the germs in the air, in the water – they fear germs from touching people, which, in turn leads to our general fear of people. When they read or see reports about infections going around, so to speak, the fear, paranoia and anticipation has been shown to lower ‘immunity’ and precipitate illness – now isn’t that interesting. Our self imposed stress about holidays has the same effect.” Source: “In a Strange Land

“ Consider that the body can observe another body and learn how to detoxify his/her own body. For instance, if I see how someone else’s body is detoxifying through a skin rash, my own body may learn the processes by observing another’s body in action. This occurs by observing with our 5 senses, specifically our eyes, which transmits energy throughout the nervous system that can inform cellular behavior. However, this will ONLY occur if detoxification is needed by the body. In a child, this is much more likely as their bodies are still forming and the immune system is learning and strengthening. Note: Immunity comes from a relationship with microbes, which is developed at an early age when children begin sticking their fingers in their mouths, etc. If we prevent this, this relationship will be hindered.
The microbial and cellular functions in the body are intelligent and alive and can be informed via the 5 senses of the body. But it is not entirely down to touch or sight—It is reliant upon if there is a toxic accumulation in the body, and only then will such processes likely be signaled to occur. One way I can prove this is through mass hysteria, and the ‘row of dominoes’ effect that plays out during pandemics. Fear, for example, can bring about bodily changes that were on the precipice of occurring anyway. So then, the mind and body are powerful. This is merely one way detoxifications can occur. Of course, if a toxic accumulation is too strong, it will be forced to do it eventually anyway. However, observation of another’s body is helpful in teaching our own body how it can detoxify. Also, do not rule out coincidence; the illusion of viral activity.” Source: “Jeff G.
“Chickenpox will occur in a child without ever being around another child. Consider that 100’s of school children in a school will develop colds and flu, or measles, and chickenpox, or any various number of viruses, and many others will not. Merely having a large group of people in one area is going to increase the number of illnesses because of the fact that so many people are able to be monitored and tracked at once. I have observed many children around those that were sick that never ‘contracted’ any illness whatsoever. I have observed the same behavior in adults.“What’s happening is, like I said, we have colds, which are mainly bacterial, which go feed on toxic tissue that’s been damaged – we don’t eat well enough, we don’t eat all raw and therefore we accumulate toxicity. So bacteria have to come in and eat that waste product because we can’t keep up with all the waste. OK. So that’s what a cold is. Flu is mainly viral. Some bacteria may be active during flu. Some areas of our bodies may not be so contaminated that bacteria – the natural way that we cleanse with bacteria when we’re overloaded with toxicity or waste products, will help us. But when we are so toxic that the bacteria are poisoned by the tissue, from chemical inundation, then we have to make solvents. Each cell makes a solvent. Each cell makes a soap to help clean itself. And it’s a union. It’s like a factory. All the particular cells get together and say, “Let’s make this to help clean ourselves.” So they make enzymes which we will call soap to do that. So there’s nothing dormant about it. It’s just that when the accumulation of industrially contaminated waste is so great and you can’t use microbes then the cells make solvents, that is, viruses we call flu.”- Aajonus Vonderplanitz
“The apparent endemicity of bad research behaviour is alarming. In their quest for telling a compelling story, scientists too often sculpt data to fit their preferred theory of the world. Or they retrofit hypotheses to fit their data. Journal editors deserve their fair share of criticism too. We aid and abet the worst behaviours. Our acquiescence to the impact factor fuels an unhealthy competition to win a place in a select few journals. Our love of ‘significance’ pollutes the literature with many a statistical fairy-tale…Journals are not the only miscreants. Universities are in a perpetual struggle for money and talent…” Source: What is medicine’s 5 sigma? https://www.thelancet.com/…/PIIS0140-6736%2815%2960696…
“There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them, but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda or brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods. And this seems to be the final revolution” ― Aldous Huxley

Meet The Governments “COVID” Gatekeepers/ Controlled Opposition
At least 95% of the so called “truth/freedom” movement in ireland and afar are actually working for those they’re supposedly exposing. Just Ask Yellow Vest Ireland, Dolores Cahill Or That Spud Graham Carey
Danny O Shay
All of these GOVERNMENT GATEKEEPERS are reinforcing “The Germ Theory” and with it The Non Existing Covid Virus, You Can add Them All To The Controlled Opposition List.
That’s why those not exposing the earth/space and germ theory lies we can safely assume they are. But they can still produce good info just be aware that while giving you some of the truth, they will also lead you off the path.
It’s 99 truths to sell you the one lie (That Covid Still Exists, IT DOES’NT APART FROM THE POISON IN THE JABS)
James Corbett is a fantastic example of a truth gatekeeper. He does excellent work uncovering the first level of the fraud, and fantastic for people becoming suspicious something isn’t adding up but he purposely doesn’t “find” the bigger lies. People can’t help but like the guy and think even if he is undoubtedly controlled that he may have good intentions. HE DOES’NT , NONE OF THEM DO. Jenny Mortell is just a “lovely harmless young lady,patriotic even, BUT SHE JUST so happens to like selling satanic artifacts and Gnostic new aged pagan peripherals under the guise of 5G Protection” (Hint Jenny is a wolf in sheeps clothing and the truth not only in the pudding but is on the way)

I don’t trust Del Bigtree because I believe he (and others) have co-opted the legitimate grassroots “anti-vaccine” movement, and turned it into a more palatable and acceptable “Safer Vaccine Movement” or the “Vaccine Risk Awareness Movement”, as part of an elaborate controlled opposition campaign. This has been obvious to many of us for a long time, but for people who may be new to these concepts, I will lay out some of the basics.
This campaign is designed to take control of the legitimate opposition voice, which understands that all vaccines are dangerous, create new artificial boundaries as to what is and isn’t an acceptable level of resistance and dissent in the public discourse about vaccines, and silence and marginalize the informed and unjected – the real dissidents and the real health and freedom movement – people who understand that there’s no such thing as a safe vaccine.
This campaign aims for and achieves several goals and objectives. Among them, it redraws the lines around what is considered “acceptable” debate about vaccines by labeling folks like Del and his buddy RFK Jr. as “anti-vax extremists” who are spreading “dangerous information,” when in fact they are soft-serve activists who aren’t extreme at all – except in the sense that they think vaccines are generally safe and effective, which is insane. The psy-war on reality turns night into day and day into night which results in normal, healthy, intelligent people pushed out of the conversation altogether and relabels people like Del, who are half insane pro-vaxxers as the “extremists.” But the real extremists are the mainstream science and media lovers who are 100% rabidly pro-vaccine, including the so-called new “experimental” COVID19 vaccine.
Del and his cohorts are just as insane as these folks, with the exception that they want the vaccines to be “safer”. The opposite of the word ‘safe,’ is ‘dangerous.’ So by making something “safer,” you are, by definition, really only making it “less dangerous.”
What the majority of folks in the COVID truther scene don’t understand is the pervasive nature of this controlled opposition campaign, its strategies and tactics, and ultimate goals.
The truthers have been set up to fall into these traps, thanks to wolves in sheep’s clothing like Del Bigtree. The ultimate goal of this insidious campaign is very simple – it is designed to get the skeptics and truther community to DEMAND
MORE GOVERNMENT.
This is accomplished via a ‘slow reveal’ strategy, employed by the mainstream and alternative media, who are one in the same and work for the same interests and agendas under a cover of manufactured conflict. The slow reveal happens over a course of months and years. Slowly, more and more information is ‘brought to light’ that the COVID vaccines are dangerous. This is accompanied by soap opera storylines which focus on people like Dr. Fauci or Bill Gates, and evil corporations like Pfizer and Moderna, in order to get the truther masses hooked and addicted to the fear-laced drama. Like all addicts, once they are hooked, they keep coming back to engage with this surface level drama and miss the big picture.
So – here is the big picture. It is VERY SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND.
While this paper may focus on vaccines, the bigger picture is not about vaccines, and has never been about vaccines. This is about CONTROL. Control of the population and every aspect of our physical and spiritual lives, which is achieved by giving the GOVERNMENT and the DEMONS more control over EVERYTHING. The vaccine is only one of the vectors which this operation uses to spring into motion a series of objectives that ultimately lead to the new world government globalist technocratic slave system.
Agents like Del Bigtree and RFK Jr. play an important role in this operation. One might say they are central to its success. They gain the trust of the skeptics who gradually hand over what little critical thinking skills they have to these deceivers, without realizing that they have been specifically cast in these roles as benevolent heroes, to fight the evil Fauci/Gates/Pfizer characters. This is written as part of the screenplay and is obvious for those who have moved past the first layers of deception.
Sadly, most truthers are completely oblivious to this, which is why I have to keep writing these damn papers. This is known as classic PROBLEM, REACTION, SOLUTION.
The entire scam relies on these heroes to highlight the “dangerous vaccine problem” via the long and drawn out “slow reveal campaign” – wait for the public’s reaction and then present the solution. It goes something like this:
Problem: Fauci/Gates/Biden/Pharma/Whoever are corrupt and evil!
Pfizer/Moderna engaged in data manipulation and lies! The COVID vaccines are dangerous!
Reaction: “OMG! THE VACCINES ARE DANGEROUS! THEY’RE TRYING TO KILL US! SOMETHING MUST BE DONE SO THIS NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN!
WHERE ARE OUR HEROES!??”
Solution: We must make the vaccines safer! These companies must be held accountable. We must have better safety regulations and oversight. We need a task force to investigate the corruption and root out the wrongdoing. Those responsible must be held to account and we need a new regulatory body to play the role of watchdog over these evil Big Pharma companies!
WE NEED MORE GOVERNMENT!!
There is an even more insidious goal underneath all of this, which lies in the spiritual realm. The goal is to lead the truthers astray and towards the false light, by exposing the dark and sinister plan of the mainstream’s agenda. That is by design and that is why we see the Fauci/Gates/Pfizer clan exposed so thoroughly and more people “waking up” to the evil agenda. They’re not really waking up, though. The darkness is meant to be exposed, in order to lead them to the false light. It’s a trick and an easy one to understand if you pay attention. This is an important subject that needs to be explored further but is outside the scope of this paper. I only wanted to mention it briefly because it’s relevant.
As we all know by now, none of the so-called leaders of this fake resistance movement are interested in completely tearing down this evil, corrupt system or eliminating toxicity from our lives. All they care about is creating the illusion that the vaccines can be made SAFER. This is an obvious LIE that anyone can understand, if they’ve done their homework. The reason it’s a lie is because there is no such thing as a safe vaccine. If this sounds extreme to you, it’s because you have not yet started your journey of unlearning.
So, in order to drive this point home, it’s time to expose everyone’s favorite “safe vaccine” advocate, Del Bigtree.
Before we start, let me just say that I knew who Del Bigtree was prior to launch of the fake COVID19 pandemic, via his propaganda film VaXXed, but I noticed immediately how he had been pushed into the spotlight to control the opposition narrative early on in the pandemic which was an immediate red flag. Indeed, within those first few weeks, Del quickly became the “go to” source of information for those who had a hunch something fishy was going on, and thus established himself as a trustworthy and credible voice for the gullible truther/skeptic crowd.
I immediately smelled a rat, not because of anything he said or did at the time, but simply because the slick production behind his Highwire show was an obvious clue for me. He was GIVEN to me, which made him suspect from the beginning.
I then began doing my own research on him and exposing him online in different research groups and channels. That is when I found the work of Greg Wyatt. Greg has the best research on the internet and has been exposing the Del Bigtree crime syndicate for years.
With the above in mind, please use this paper as a guide or a starting point only. I will only scratch the surface and give you the most important information, but if you continue down the rabbit hole, you will find a lot more and I highly recommend Greg Wyatt’s research for all the information you need. I also recommend doing your own research, as well. Don’t just take my word for it or Greg’s word for it, do your due diligence and if you find errors in this paper, please send them to me. I consider Greg a man of integrity who is honest and as trustworthy as they come – a rarity in the so-called “truther” scene. Greg has also been through HELL to bring this information to us, so respect the research and do your homework. Start with this paper and then the information on Greg’s website.
Finally, I want to thank Greg for his research which has been a valuable companion to my own. While I found a lot about Del on my own, Greg deserves most of the credit because he has been doing this a lot longer than I have. I am grateful for his tireless and exhaustive efforts at exposing these criminals. He has left me some very valuable breadcrumbs that I’ve used to find more information.
PART 1
THE APPLE DOESN’T FALL FAR FROM THE BIG TREE
So first, let’s start with Del’s background and family history. The following italicized sections were written by Greg Wyatt with additional sources added by me. I followed Greg’s leads, fact-checked and did my own, additional research.
Del has a family history of being a showman and as such, there is the mask he wears in public and the products of his actions in real life. There seems to be a disconnect between what this actor portrays himself to be and the truth.
Norma was born on January 14, 1943 to Norman and Mary Bigtree in Syracuse, NY. Norman Bigtree(05/10/11 – 03/26/71) was a full-blood Iroquois Indian born on the Onondaga Reservation. Norman was a machinist for the Chrysler Corporation until his death in 1971. Norma was the eldest of three daughters, followed by Jeanne Bigtree (now Bagi) and the youngest Sandra Bigtree… When
…Norma met Jack Groverland in the early 1960’s and they appeared in off-Broadway productions together in New York City. Norma starred in Curley McDimple(a Shirley Temple spoof) from November 22, 1967 to January 15, 1970. She performed with Barry Manilow, Bernadtte Peters, etc, when she met Jack Groverland.
When “Tent Revival” preaching became popular in the 1960’s, Norma and Jack suddenly found a more lucrative career promoting God and ditched the theater for the tent. It’s not clear why Del does not have his father’s last name.
Well, Del’s father’s last name isn’t actually Groverland, but we’ll come back to that later.
So, with just a cursory check of Del’s family, we’ve learned two important things. First, we’ve learned that Del’s family has been involved in showmanship and acting. This is important for obvious reasons. It suggests that Del too is nothing but an actor. We’ll explore this later.
From Norma’s Bio, on her own website, she says that she is the daughter of a
Mohawk Native American Father (Norman Bigtree) and a Russian Immigrant
Mother (Mary Wolniak). The Mohawk are an Iroquoian-speaking North
American Indian tribe and the easternmost tribe of the Iroquois
Other sources confirm that Norman was indeed a “full-blood Iroquois Indian born on the Onondaga Reservation.” Norman’s race is listed as “Indian” (same for his father, Mitchell) here. But the U.S. Census data from1940 lists Norman’s race as “White,” and his Ethnicity as “American.”
Find a Grave says that Norman was born in Hogansburg, Franklin County, New York which is 200 miles away from the Onondaga Reservation. Ancestry says the same thing. Find a Grave says he was buried in Onondaga County, but something seems off here.
Norman’s father is Mitchell Bigtree, born in 1876.
Mitchell’s father is Philip Bigtree and his father is George Bigtree. That’s as far back as records go and they do all seem like legitimate Native Americans to me.
Here is a photo of Philip Bigtree.
Norman Bigtree is listed in the Geneology sites as one of nine children of Mitchell Bigtree and Margaret Ellen Doyle. Mitchell and Margaret Ellen Doyle were married in Manchester, England on April 6, 1896. Norman was born 15 years later (allegedly on the Onondaga Reservation).
Also, I’ve found that some sources list him as Norman Bigtree (one word), while others list him as Norman Big Tree (two words).
According to the book Notes on the Iroquois by Henry R. Schoolcraft, it is confirmed that the Big Tree family (two words) was indeed from Onondaga, but the US Census data from 1888-1893 lists the Bigtree family (one word) in St.
Regis, not Onondaga (Norman was born in 1911).
Norman’s Great Grandmother on his mother’s side is Margaret Downie, born in England and died in Germany. So it’s clear that Norman can’t be full-blooded Iroquois Indian. The Indian is on his father’s side only.
It should also be noted that Doyle (Norman’s mother, Mitchell’s wife) is a peerage name, including at least 5 Baronets. Just one example is General Sir John Doyle, 1st Baronet, who was born between 1750 and 1756.1He was the son of Charles Doyle and ElizabethMilley
General Sir John Doyle
So clearly there’s no Native American roots from Norman’s mother’s side.
It does seem a little odd that a Native American would travel to England and get married there and then come back, in the 1800s, but it’s certainly possible and not necessarily a red flag. Did he meet Margaret in New York and they went back to her homeland for the wedding? Or was he in England for other reasons and then met her there?

Wall Scuffs Begone!

Sponges are sort of like a breeding ground for bacteria, and they should be cleaned halfway through their life span. If you wish to prolong the life of your sponge, make sure to soak it in a water and baking soda mix to disinfect them. Good luck!
Mildew Remover
If you are a perfectionist like ourselves, you’ll find it difficult not to clean all the small crevices you simply can’t reach or can’t disinfect well enough. Mildew usually forms in bathrooms due to humidity and the constant circulation of water.

Baking soda can help you with mildew as well! Create a paste with water and baking soda to scrub the inscrutable bathtub, shower, toilet, basin, and tiles. Afterward, make sure to rinse with water. If you want to go all out, spray the area with white vinegar to disinfect it even more.
Saving an Unfortunately Burnt Pan
Some of us are just not as good at cooking as others are. Accidents happen, okay?! You drop a bowl, a pancake ends up on the wall or ceiling, you manage to burn spinach and such. Now, there is a savior for those of us who make mistakes and burn pans!
Image courtesy of WikiHow
Some pots and pans require more detailed cleaning, that’s all! If you want to save your favorite pan and not throw it away due to extreme residue and damage, we advise you to add baking soda to the pan generously, fill it with water and scrub away.
Sunburn Relief
SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.
Image courtesy of elizabethmaaee/Reddit
However, if you don’t protect your vulnerable skin, you’ll get a sunburn, no doubt. Sunburns can be painful, and burns can even turn out severe. To help alleviate the pain, mix cold water and baking soda and apply it to the burns.
Eliminates Feet Odor
Wearing shoes all the time and doing straining activities can leave your feet smelling, well, not so nice, to say the least. Unpleasant foot odor is nothing to be embarrassed about or ashamed of. It happens to everyone, and the key is to find a perfect and easy solution.
Image courtesy of Little Things
What you should do to eliminate foot odor is simply soak your feet in water with baking soda. Since baking soda has the anti-microbial properties we talked about, it eliminates unwanted scents. If you’d like to go a step further, you could sprinkle a bit of baking soda into your shoes and let it sit overnight.
Cleaning Car Battery Terminals
Taking care of one’s car is important. If you don’t pay close attention to details, you might find yourself more often than not ringing your mechanic’s number for another check-up or appointment. Believe it or not, baking soda can help in keeping your car clean and sound.
Image courtesy of UrsaHomma/Reddit
The build-up in your car’s battery can be nasty. Therefore, you should clean it regularly, and you can do so by creating a paste made out of baking soda and water mixed together. Carefully disconnect the battery and use a toothbrush with the liquid paste to reach all crevices and clean the battery meticulously.
Heartburn Reliever
If you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, heartburn is no stranger to you. It’s a very uncomfortable sensation that could only make the initial psychological trigger even worse. Worry no more, of course, because we have an answer to all your problems, and of course, all of them include baking soda!
Image courtesy of Delia Cabrillas/Pinterest
Since baking soda is a natural antacid, it helps out with stomach acids and relieves heartburn. Make sure to take one teaspoon of baking soda and mix it with a glass full of water. Mix well and drink slowly. You should feel better almost instantly.
Homemade Face Mask
Finding perfect yet affordable skincare products is a tiring task. We don’t give enough credit to people that do it so well! Buy this, buy that, and the spending is neverending! It seems like you need a whole rack of expensive products. But no more!
Image courtesy of healthextremist.com
Baking soda has anti-inflammatory properties, and therefore is a perfect product for skincare and improving skin imperfections. It calms acne and skin redness, reduces swelling, and leaves your face clean and fresh. To make a face mask, all you need to do is mix water, baking soda, and lemon juice.
Dry Shampoo Hack
For years we’ve come to love using dry shampoos quickly before heading out to do errands, to go on a date or a meeting. They are convenient, smell nice, and soak up the oils from your scalp, making your hair look a day or two cleaner!Image Courtesy of Folder
If you don’t want to spend your money on expensive brands and consume products from the stores, you can always DIY your own dry shampoo. All you need is – you guessed it – baking soda. Sprinkle it lightly on your scalp and massage it. It should gather the oils and provide you with a presentable hairstyle!
Remove Unwanted Weeds
If you’re a control freak, even the innocent weeds that seep through your pavement or driveway may cause you some annoyance. There are sprays that could remove and kill the weeds. However, they are not the best ecological solution. There is a better one!
Image courtesy of The Krazy Koupon Lady
Since baking soda is not toxic, biodegradable, and good for the environment, it’s a perfect yet affordable solution for killing weeds. Sprinkle baking soda in the crevices of the pavement, and after a few days, you will notice them wilting away.
Clean Your Shower Curtain
As cleaning your bathroom is important, cleaning and sanitizing your shower curtain is vital as well! Different bacteria and mildew can form on the curtain, and you want to make sure it’s squeaky clean. If you don’t know what to use for sanitizing it, hear us out.
Image courteys of gryffindorwannabe/Reddit
To remove dirt, stains, and accumulated mildew, all you need to do is scrub your shower curtain with baking soda and a damp brush, and voila! You’ll have a refreshed, squeaky clean shower curtain that matches your impeccable bathroom tiles.
Stop a Cooking Fire
Not everyone has access to a fire extinguisher. Let’s agree on that premise. So what does someone do in the case of a small cooking fire? Of course, you could try to put it out with an apron or a kitchen cloth. However, those things might catch on fire as well.
Image courtesy of Serious Eats
If a small cooking fire occurs, quickly grab baking soda. It will provide the necessary carbon dioxide to put out the fire. Just throw in a handful of it in a pot or a pan. Baking soda is an essential part of fire extinguishers, so it’s not a bad idea to have it on hand in case of any accidents.
Strip Paint with Baking Soda
Sometimes, we get bored of the same old design and colors and wish to change things up a bit. Even painting your table in a new and bold color can spruce up your house or apartment. However, stripping the old paint can be straining and stressful.
Image courtesy of heyugogirl/Reddit
If you don’t want to use harsh chemicals, all you need is to try scrapping with baking soda. Mix baking soda with hot water and apply it to the surface you’d like to scrape paint from. Then use a tool and start scraping the paint. It’s non-toxic, safe, and easy. Good luck!
Vibrant Laundry
After some time, our clothes and laundry lose their initial color and even texture. You brought a vibrant pink sweater, but now it looks more of a maroon color. We can use products to make the color more permanent and prevalent. One of the ways we can achieve this is by using, you guessed it, baking soda!
Image courtesy of Diply
Adding half a cup of baking soda to your regular liquid detergent will ensure your clothes to be brighter, more vibrant, and nicer. It works on both colored and white laundry. Besides the color enhancement, baking soda will ensure your laundry is odor-free.

Especially if you are wearing retainers or braces, you must make sure they are clean and disinfected properly.

SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.

Iwas able to find another source for this, here. But I haven’t found any evidence that Mitchell was a Mohawk Chief.
So let’s recap, so that we don’t get too confused. Del’s mother Norma says that her father (Norman) is a Mohawk Native American.

Furthermore, he is listed as “white” in the U.S. Census (presumably because his mother is a white European) and his parents (Mitchell and Margaret Ellen Doyle) were married in England. Several newspaper articles say that Norma is the granddaughter of a Mohawk Indian Chief whose likeness was used on the nickel coin, presumably referring to Mitchell Bigtree. But there’s no evidence that Mitchell was a Chief and we know he wasn’t used for the nickel.

Sponges are sort of like a breeding ground for bacteria, and they should be cleaned halfway through their life span. If you wish to prolong the life of your sponge, make sure to soak it in a water and baking soda mix to disinfect them. Good luck!
Mildew Remover
If you are a perfectionist like ourselves, you’ll find it difficult not to clean all the small crevices you simply can’t reach or can’t disinfect well enough. Mildew usually forms in bathrooms due to humidity and the constant circulation of water.

Baking soda can help you with mildew as well! Create a paste with water and baking soda to scrub the inscrutable bathtub, shower, toilet, basin, and tiles. Afterward, make sure to rinse with water. If you want to go all out, spray the area with white vinegar to disinfect it even more.
Saving an Unfortunately Burnt Pan
Some of us are just not as good at cooking as others are. Accidents happen, okay?! You drop a bowl, a pancake ends up on the wall or ceiling, you manage to burn spinach and such. Now, there is a savior for those of us who make mistakes and burn pans!
Image courtesy of WikiHow
Some pots and pans require more detailed cleaning, that’s all! If you want to save your favorite pan and not throw it away due to extreme residue and damage, we advise you to add baking soda to the pan generously, fill it with water and scrub away.
Sunburn Relief
SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.
Image courtesy of elizabethmaaee/Reddit
However, if you don’t protect your vulnerable skin, you’ll get a sunburn, no doubt. Sunburns can be painful, and burns can even turn out severe. To help alleviate the pain, mix cold water and baking soda and apply it to the burns.

Heartburn Reliever

Dry Shampoo Hack

Stop a Cooking Fire
Not everyone has access to a fire extinguisher. Let’s agree on that premise. So what does someone do in the case of a small cooking fire? Of course, you could try to put it out with an apron or a kitchen cloth. However, those things might catch on fire as well.
Image courtesy of Serious Eats
If a small cooking fire occurs, quickly grab baking soda. It will provide the necessary carbon dioxide to put out the fire. Just throw in a handful of it in a pot or a pan. Baking soda is an essential part of fire extinguishers, so it’s not a bad idea to have it on hand in case of any accidents.
Strip Paint with Baking Soda
Sometimes, we get bored of the same old design and colors and wish to change things up a bit. Even painting your table in a new and bold color can spruce up your house or apartment. However, stripping the old paint can be straining and stressful.
Image courtesy of heyugogirl/Reddit
If you don’t want to use harsh chemicals, all you need is to try scrapping with baking soda. Mix baking soda with hot water and apply it to the surface you’d like to scrape paint from. Then use a tool and start scraping the paint. It’s non-toxic, safe, and easy. Good luck!
Vibrant Laundry
After some time, our clothes and laundry lose their initial color and even texture. You brought a vibrant pink sweater, but now it looks more of a maroon color. We can use products to make the color more permanent and prevalent. One of the ways we can achieve this is by using, you guessed it, baking soda!

There has been some confusion regarding the Bigtrees vs the Big Trees discussed in different online message boards.
Greg writes: But an obituary of John Big Tree says he never had any children. Forum posts on a genealogy website have similar discrepancies. A woman who went to school with Norma reports that she was the granddaughter of Chief Johnnie but later forum reports say that articles about John Big Tree indicate he did not have a family. Plus the difference in spelling from Big Tree to Bigtree. So which account is true? In typical showbiz fashion, the truth is lost when the agenda is to sell an image.
For what it’s worth, Chief John was also buried at Onondaga Reservation which perhaps adds to the confusion. My research found that Chief John had 3 wives and 2 children. Chief John is said to have been married to Phoebe White and they had a child named Deforest Johnnyjohn together. He was also married to Clara T. Jimerson, confirmed on multiple Geneology sites – and they had one child together, Birdie Johnny John.
Chief John was also married to Cynthia Johnson Big Tree who is listed as an equal suffragist and Indian Model. They had no children together. She was his last wife.

SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.

What you should do to eliminate foot odor is simply soak your feet in water with baking soda. Since baking soda has the anti-microbial properties we talked about, it eliminates unwanted scents.

If a small cooking fire occurs, quickly grab baking soda. It will provide the necessary carbon dioxide to put out the fire. Just throw in a handful of it in a pot or a pan. Baking soda is an essential part of fire extinguishers, so it’s not a bad idea to have it on hand in case of any accidents.

Since baking soda is not toxic, biodegradable, and good for the environment, it’s a perfect yet affordable solution for killing weeds. Sprinkle baking soda in the crevices of the pavement, and after a few days, you will notice them wilting away.
Clean Your Shower Curtain
As cleaning your bathroom is important, cleaning and sanitizing your shower curtain is vital as well! Different bacteria and mildew can form on the curtain, and you want to make sure it’s squeaky clean. If you don’t know what to use for sanitizing it, hear us out.

To remove dirt, stains, and accumulated mildew, all you need to do is scrub your shower curtain with baking soda and a damp brush, and voila! You’ll have a refreshed, squeaky clean shower curtain that matches your impeccable bathroom tiles.
Stop a Cooking Fire
Not everyone has access to a fire extinguisher. Let’s agree on that premise. So what does someone do in the case of a small cooking fire? Of course, you could try to put it out with an apron or a kitchen cloth. However, those things might catch on fire as well.
Image courtesy of Serious Eats
If a small cooking fire occurs, quickly grab baking soda. It will provide the necessary carbon dioxide to put out the fire. Just throw in a handful of it in a pot or a pan. Baking soda is an essential part of fire extinguishers, so it’s not a bad idea to have it on hand in case of any accidents.
Strip Paint with Baking Soda
Sometimes, we get bored of the same old design and colors and wish to change things up a bit. Even painting your table in a new and bold color can spruce up your house or apartment. However, stripping the old paint can be straining and stressful.
Image courtesy of heyugogirl/Reddit
If you don’t want to use harsh chemicals, all you need is to try scrapping with baking soda. Mix baking soda with hot water and apply it to the surface you’d like to scrape paint from. Then use a tool and start scraping the paint. It’s non-toxic, safe, and easy. Good luck!
Vibrant Laundry
After some time, our clothes and laundry lose their initial color and even texture. You brought a vibrant pink sweater, but now it looks more of a maroon color. We can use products to make the color more permanent and prevalent. One of the ways we can achieve this is by using, you guessed it, baking soda!
Image courtesy of Diply
Adding half a cup of baking soda to your regular liquid detergent will ensure your clothes to be brighter, more vibrant, and nicer. It works on both colored and white laundry. Besides the color enhancement, baking soda will ensure your laundry is odor-free.
Disinfect Your Retainers
Dental health and care are some of the most critical aspects of overall health. We consume different foods and liquids all the time, so taking care of oral hygiene should be at the top of our priority list! Especially if you are wearing retainers or braces, you must make sure they are clean and disinfected properly.
Image courtesy of NatureFriend/Unsplash
Since baking soda is a powerful disinfectant, it is an excellent solution for staying on budget! All you should do is brush your retainers with baking soda and water to refresh them and keep them sanitary and clean. This way, you’ll disinfect your retainers or dentures and kill bacteria. Way to go!

I’m sure I don’t need to go into details, as it should be obvious.
Del also has two younger siblings that are said to be fathered by Jack Groverland. Again, there’s not much resemblance at all.
Why is all of this important? Well, I can’t say that it is, given I didn’t find any conclusive evidence one way or another. If Del is related to Chief John, as Greg suspects, then it’s important because it means he’s lying. It’s also important because it establishes a further deep link to Hollywood. As we’ve already seen, Del’s immediate family was involved in Showbiz, and he has been as well. Even some family members who weren’t directly involved in Showbiz seem to have public personas – see Del’s great uncle’s the Wolniakbrothers as an example.
Before we move on, I’d like to again repeat that any connection to Chief John Big Tree at this point is speculation only. Perhaps others may find a missing link that I was unable to find. I encourage others to pick up where I left off.
In Summary – We have established that Norma’s father Norman isn’t a full blooded Iroquoi as some sources claim. We have also seen Norman’s name spelled Bigtree and Big Tree leading to further confusion and lending to the possibility that there could be a connection to Chief John Big Tree. We have also learned that Norma’s grandmother is British, and in the peerage. We have also learned that Chief John Big Tree is from the same area, was buried at the Onondaga Reservation, and was born during the same time period (one month apart) as Mitchell Bigtree (Del’s great grandfather). Finally, we have multiple sources that claim that Norma is the granddaughter of a Mohawk Chief whose likeness was used on the nickel coin, but we know Mitchell wasn’t a Mohawk Chief and we know that it was Chief John Big Tree whose likeness was used on the nickel coin. These are the reasons that lead to the suspicions that Del may be related to Chief John, but again there’s nothing concrete. Perhaps they are coincidences, perhaps there is a connection, or perhaps there are errors in the reporting and there is no link at all.
Del’s Father, Jack Groverland
The first thing we should know about Jack is that Groverland isn’t his real last name. He changed his last name from Arnebold to Groverland.
“I grew up in the crime infested ghettos of Hoboken and Jersey City where I learned all the wrong ideas about life. I lived with my father, an immigrant truck driver who couldn’t begin to imagine the life I’m living now.In those dark days I was a petty thief, gang fighter, gambler and fool. I left all that when I escaped from jail under a hail of bullets and in the process had my first spiritual experience.
I found the death record for Jack’s brother, John Arnebold which shows us that
Jack had two sisters, Katherine and Irene and his mother’s name is Sally. I found no more information on “Sally,” but Ancesty.com doesn’t list any Sally.
Jack’s father is Frederich “Fritz” Arnebold, who immigrated to the United States from Germany. According to records, he was indeed a truck driver, employed by Charles Miller & Co.

Refresh Stuffed Animals
Children love playing with stuffed animals. They are soft, cuddly, and somewhat of a replacement for a pet all kids want, but parents don’t. However, these stuffed animals must be sanitized and refreshed from time to time due to the material they are made of. They collect a lot of dust and dirt.

However, they can sting, and when they do, make sure to rinse the sting with vinegar and then apply a hot water and baking soda mixture. It is said to do wonders for relieving the pain.
Remove Water Rings
Oftentimes, when we are hosting a gathering at our house, or a party, or a dinner for work friends, we get flustered, anxious, and perhaps even exhausted from preparing all the food, beverages and wanting it to be perfect. In all the fuss, we can forget to use coasters.

Image courtesy of fidgetspinnerz/Reddit
Sponges are sort of like a breeding ground for bacteria, and they should be cleaned halfway through their life span. If you wish to prolong the life of your sponge, make sure to soak it in a water and baking soda mix to disinfect them. Good luck!
Mildew Remover
If you are a perfectionist like ourselves, you’ll find it difficult not to clean all the small crevices you simply can’t reach or can’t disinfect well enough. Mildew usually forms in bathrooms due to humidity and the constant circulation of water.
Image courtesy of craftsyhacks.com
Baking soda can help you with mildew as well! Create a paste with water and baking soda to scrub the inscrutable bathtub, shower, toilet, basin, and tiles. Afterward, make sure to rinse with water. If you want to go all out, spray the area with white vinegar to disinfect it even more.
Saving an Unfortunately Burnt Pan
Some of us are just not as good at cooking as others are. Accidents happen, okay?! You drop a bowl, a pancake ends up on the wall or ceiling, you manage to burn spinach and such. Now, there is a savior for those of us who make mistakes and burn pans!
Image courtesy of WikiHow
Some pots and pans require more detailed cleaning, that’s all! If you want to save your favorite pan and not throw it away due to extreme residue and damage, we advise you to add baking soda to the pan generously, fill it with water and scrub away.
Sunburn Relief
SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.
Image courtesy of elizabethmaaee/Reddit
However, if you don’t protect your vulnerable skin, you’ll get a sunburn, no doubt. Sunburns can be painful, and burns can even turn out severe. To help alleviate the pain, mix cold water and baking soda and apply it to the burns.
Eliminates Feet Odor
Wearing shoes all the time and doing straining activities can leave your feet smelling, well, not so nice, to say the least. Unpleasant foot odor is nothing to be embarrassed about or ashamed of. It happens to everyone, and the key is to find a perfect and easy solution.
Image courtesy of Little Things
What you should do to eliminate foot odor is simply soak your feet in water with baking soda. Since baking soda has the anti-microbial properties we talked about, it eliminates unwanted scents. If you’d like to go a step further, you could sprinkle a bit of baking soda into your shoes and let it sit overnight.
Cleaning Car Battery Terminals
Taking care of one’s car is important. If you don’t pay close attention to details, you might find yourself more often than not ringing your mechanic’s number for another check-up or appointment. Believe it or not, baking soda can help in keeping your car clean and sound.
Image courtesy of UrsaHomma/Reddit
The build-up in your car’s battery can be nasty. Therefore, you should clean it regularly, and you can do so by creating a paste made out of baking soda and water mixed together. Carefully disconnect the battery and use a toothbrush with the liquid paste to reach all crevices and clean the battery meticulously.
Heartburn Reliever
If you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, heartburn is no stranger to you. It’s a very uncomfortable sensation that could only make the initial psychological trigger even worse. Worry no more, of course, because we have an answer to all your problems, and of course, all of them include baking soda!

Finding perfect yet affordable skincare products is a tiring task. We don’t give enough credit to people that do it so well! Buy this, buy that, and the spending is neverending! It seems like you need a whole rack of expensive products. But no more!
Image courtesy of healthextremist.com
Baking soda has anti-inflammatory properties, and therefore is a perfect product for skincare and improving skin imperfections. It calms acne and skin redness, reduces swelling, and leaves your face clean and fresh. To make a face mask, all you need to do is mix water, baking soda, and lemon juice.
Dry Shampoo Hack
For years we’ve come to love using dry shampoos quickly before heading out to do errands, to go on a date or a meeting. They are convenient, smell nice, and soak up the oils from your scalp, making your hair look a day or two cleaner!Image Courtesy of Folder
If you don’t want to spend your money on expensive brands and consume products from the stores, you can always DIY your own dry shampoo. All you need is – you guessed it – baking soda. Sprinkle it lightly on your scalp and massage it. It should gather the oils and provide you with a presentable hairstyle!
Remove Unwanted Weeds
If you’re a control freak, even the innocent weeds that seep through your pavement or driveway may cause you some annoyance. There are sprays that could remove and kill the weeds. However, they are not the best ecological solution. There is a better one!

To help your pet and clean their bed, all you need to do is sprinkle baking soda on it and let it soak for about 15 minutes. After that, just take a vacuum cleaner and suck in all the baking soda residue from the bed, keeping it nice and sanitized.
Get Rid of Annoying Carpet Stains
If you’re clumsy, someone in your household is, or if you invite guests often, you can expect a few permanent stains here and there, especially on carpets and rugs. Those are the worst. No one’s home is perfect. But, yours can be! We have a solution.

We’ve already mentioned combining vinegar, and baking soda does wonders for unclogging your drains. This combination is quite useful for getting rid of stubborn stains on your carpets. Just spray this fizzling mixture directly on the stain and start scrubbing with a sponge or cloth. Remember to enjoy your perfectly clean house once you’re done!
Mouthwash on a Budget
Mouthwash is an integral part of people’s daily routine. Sometimes brushing teeth with toothpaste and rinsing your mouth and tongue with it is not enough. Mouthwash is there to protect your overall oral health, provide immunity, and kill unhealthy bacteria.

Since baking soda has potent anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties, it is an easy and affordable substitute for the conventional mouthwash you buy in your local grocery store. Just mix a teaspoon of baking soda with a glass of warm water and swish!
Jellyfish Sting Treatment
Most people love vacationing at the beach, basking in the sun, and enjoying a gentle summer breeze. While traveling and spending your days off at the beach, you can sunbathe, play sports, and swim. The possibilities are endless, and everything is seamless.

Now, if you’re not careful enough, you could stumble upon a jellyfish. Jellyfish are visually beautiful creatures with transparent bodies and unique, vibrant colors. However, they can sting, and when they do, make sure to rinse the sting with vinegar and then apply a hot water and baking soda mixture. It is said to do wonders for relieving the pain.
Remove Water Rings
Oftentimes, when we are hosting a gathering at our house, or a party, or a dinner for work friends, we get flustered, anxious, and perhaps even exhausted from preparing all the food, beverages and wanting it to be perfect. In all the fuss, we can forget to use coasters.
Image courtesy of womensday.com
If this happened to you, and now you have water rings all over your wooden kitchen table you paid a fortune for – do not fret! Once again, baking soda can and will help! Simply mix baking soda with water and use a cloth to remove the water rings! Next time you forget coasters, remember, there is a solution!
Disinfect Your Sponge
Do you ever feel like you are going through sponges too quickly?! Almost like you use them out entirely in just a few weeks of them. The secret is as follows: even though you use your sponge to clean, you must clean the sponge as well! Shocking!
Image courtesy of fidgetspinnerz/Reddit
Sponges are sort of like a breeding ground for bacteria, and they should be cleaned halfway through their life span. If you wish to prolong the life of your sponge, make sure to soak it in a water and baking soda mix to disinfect them. Good luck!
Mildew Remover
If you are a perfectionist like ourselves, you’ll find it difficult not to clean all the small crevices you simply can’t reach or can’t disinfect well enough. Mildew usually forms in bathrooms due to humidity and the constant circulation of water.
Image courtesy of craftsyhacks.com
Baking soda can help you with mildew as well! Create a paste with water and baking soda to scrub the inscrutable bathtub, shower, toilet, basin, and tiles. Afterward, make sure to rinse with water. If you want to go all out, spray the area with white vinegar to disinfect it even more.
Saving an Unfortunately Burnt Pan
Some of us are just not as good at cooking as others are. Accidents happen, okay?! You drop a bowl, a pancake ends up on the wall or ceiling, you manage to burn spinach and such. Now, there is a savior for those of us who make mistakes and burn pans!
Image courtesy of WikiHow
Some pots and pans require more detailed cleaning, that’s all! If you want to save your favorite pan and not throw it away due to extreme residue and damage, we advise you to add baking soda to the pan generously, fill it with water and scrub away.
Sunburn Relief
SPF is an essential part of skincare, and if you want to enjoy your stay at the beach fully, make sure to pack an SPF of at least 30 to 50. This won’t prevent you from getting a nice bronze tan but instead prolong the length of time you can spend outside, enjoying the weather.
Image courtesy of elizabethmaaee/Reddit
However, if you don’t protect your vulnerable skin, you’ll get a sunburn, no doubt. Sunburns can be painful, and burns can even turn out severe. To help alleviate the pain, mix cold water and baking soda and apply it to the burns.
Eliminates Feet Odor
Wearing shoes all the time and doing straining activities can leave your feet smelling, well, not so nice, to say the least. Unpleasant foot odor is nothing to be embarrassed about or ashamed of. It happens to everyone, and the key is to find a perfect and easy solution.
Image courtesy of Little Things
What you should do to eliminate foot odor is simply soak your feet in water with baking soda. Since baking soda has the anti-microbial properties we talked about, it eliminates unwanted scents. If you’d like to go a step further, you could sprinkle a bit of baking soda into your shoes and let it sit overnight.
Cleaning Car Battery Terminals
Taking care of one’s car is important. If you don’t pay close attention to details, you might find yourself more often than not ringing your mechanic’s number for another check-up or appointment. Believe it or not, baking soda can help in keeping your car clean and sound.
Image courtesy of UrsaHomma/Reddit
The build-up in your car’s battery can be nasty. Therefore, you should clean it regularly, and you can do so by creating a paste made out of baking soda and water mixed together. Carefully disconnect the battery and use a toothbrush with the liquid paste to reach all crevices and clean the battery meticulously.
Heartburn Reliever
If you suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, heartburn is no stranger to you. It’s a very uncomfortable sensation that could only make the initial psychological trigger even worse. Worry no more, of course, because we have an answer to all your problems, and of course, all of them include baking soda!
Image courtesy of Delia Cabrillas/Pinterest
Since baking soda is a natural antacid, it helps out with stomach acids and relieves heartburn. Make sure to take one teaspoon of baking soda and mix it with a glass full of water. Mix well and drink slowly. You should feel better almost instantly.
Homemade Face Mask
Finding perfect yet affordable skincare products is a tiring task. We don’t give enough credit to people that do it so well! Buy this, buy that, and the spending is neverending! It seems like you need a whole rack of expensive products. But no more!
Image courtesy of healthextremist.com
Baking soda has anti-inflammatory properties, and therefore is a perfect product for skincare and improving skin imperfections. It calms acne and skin redness, reduces swelling, and leaves your face clean and fresh. To make a face mask, all you need to do is mix water, baking soda, and lemon juice.
Dry Shampoo Hack
For years we’ve come to love using dry shampoos quickly before heading out to do errands, to go on a date or a meeting. They are convenient, smell nice, and soak up the oils from your scalp, making your hair look a day or two cleaner!Image Courtesy of Folder
If you don’t want to spend your money on expensive brands and consume products from the stores, you can always DIY your own dry shampoo. All you need is – you guessed it – baking soda. Sprinkle it lightly on your scalp and massage it. It should gather the oils and provide you with a presentable hairstyle!
Remove Unwanted Weeds
If you’re a control freak, even the innocent weeds that seep through your pavement or driveway may cause you some annoyance. There are sprays that could remove and kill the weeds. However, they are not the best ecological solution. There is a better one!
Image courtesy of The Krazy Koupon Lady
Since baking soda is not toxic, biodegradable, and good for the environment, it’s a perfect yet affordable solution for killing weeds. Sprinkle baking soda in the crevices of the pavement, and after a few days, you will notice them wilting away.
Clean Your Shower Curtain
As cleaning your bathroom is important, cleaning and sanitizing your shower curtain is vital as well! Different bacteria and mildew can form on the curtain, and you want to make sure it’s squeaky clean. If you don’t know what to use for sanitizing it, hear us out.
Image courteys of gryffindorwannabe/Reddit
To remove dirt, stains, and accumulated mildew, all you need to do is scrub your shower curtain with baking soda and a damp brush, and voila! You’ll have a refreshed, squeaky clean shower curtain that matches your impeccable bathroom tiles.
Stop a Cooking Fire
Not everyone has access to a fire extinguisher. Let’s agree on that premise. So what does someone do in the case of a small cooking fire? Of course, you could try to put it out with an apron or a kitchen cloth. However, those things might catch on fire as well.
Image courtesy of Serious Eats
If a small cooking fire occurs, quickly grab baking soda. It will provide the necessary carbon dioxide to put out the fire. Just throw in a handful of it in a pot or a pan. Baking soda is an essential part of fire extinguishers, so it’s not a bad idea to have it on hand in case of any accidents.
Strip Paint with Baking Soda
Sometimes, we get bored of the same old design and colors and wish to change things up a bit. Even painting your table in a new and bold color can spruce up your house or apartment. However, stripping the old paint can be straining and stressful.
Image courtesy of heyugogirl/Reddit
If you don’t want to use harsh chemicals, all you need is to try scrapping with baking soda. Mix baking soda with hot water and apply it to the surface you’d like to scrape paint from. Then use a tool and start scraping the paint. It’s non-toxic, safe, and easy. Good luck!
Vibrant Laundry
After some time, our clothes and laundry lose their initial color and even texture. You brought a vibrant pink sweater, but now it looks more of a maroon color. We can use products to make the color more permanent and prevalent. One of the ways we can achieve this is by using, you guessed it, baking soda!
Image courtesy of Diply
Adding half a cup of baking soda to your regular liquid detergent will ensure your clothes to be brighter, more vibrant, and nicer. It works on both colored and white laundry. Besides the color enhancement, baking soda will ensure your laundry is odor-free.
Disinfect Your Retainers
Dental health and care are some of the most critical aspects of overall health. We consume different foods and liquids all the time, so taking care of oral hygiene should be at the top of our priority list! Especially if you are wearing retainers or braces, you must make sure they are clean and disinfected properly.
Image courtesy of NatureFriend/Unsplash
Since baking soda is a powerful disinfectant, it is an excellent solution for staying on budget! All you should do is brush your retainers with baking soda and water to refresh them and keep them sanitary and clean. This way, you’ll disinfect your retainers or dentures and kill bacteria. Way to go!

I found no red flags with Jack’s story, however his claim that he escaped from jail under a “hail of bullets,” and then changed his name, requires further attention. Wouldn’t that make him a fugitive? It is also unclear why he changed his last name and there may be something else there worth looking into.
Ancestry lists Fritz’s wife (presumably Jack’s Mother) as Louise Arnebold and I found no further information on her.
Peggy (Lee’s Mom) was the creative director for the Oleg Cassinibrand.
WHO IS OLEG CASSINI?
Oleg Cassini was the fashion designer of Jacqueline Kennedy’s iconic wardrobe. This is significant because it establishes the start of a relationship between this family and the Kennedy family, (and eventually Del Bigtree).
Jacqueline Kennedy became a global fashion icon during her husband’s presidency. After the 1960 election, she commissioned French-born American fashion designer and Kennedy family friend Oleg Cassinito create an original wardrobe for her appearances as First Lady. From 1961 to 1963, Cassini dressed her in many of her most iconic ensembles, including her Inauguration Day fawn coat and Inaugural gala gown, as well as many outfits for her visits to Europe, India, and Pakistan. In 1961, Kennedy spent $45,446 more on fashion than the $100,000 annual salary her husband earned as president. (Source)
The two Nestor sisters, Marianne and Peggy have been embroiled in a lawsuit over the New York 5th Avenue mansion left to Marianne after Oleg’s death in 2006. Christina “Tina” Cassini and her sister, Daria, daughters of Oleg and Gene
Tierney were the presumed heirs to the nearly $60 million estate. She fought Marianne over her late father’s estate until her untimely death in March of 2015 at the age of 67. The estate battle continues in the eye of the public, as
Alexandre Cassini Belmont, Oleg’s grandson, has also entered a claim. Marianne has spent time in jail as she drags her heels on providing the court with accurate accounting records of the estate of which half is rightly due to the heirs of Oleg’s daughter, Tina. (Source)
Was it then that Peggy Nestor became friends with the Kennedy family? Is Lee the link between Del and his current business partner Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and the various business endeavors they have launched?
Oleg Cassini had two other wives– Merry Elizabeth Fahrney, and actress Gene Tierney. He was also engaged to Oscar Award winning actress Grace Kelly. Oleg is also the son of a Count and Countess – RussianAristocrats.
Czar Nicholas’ ambassador to China and the United States was Arthur Cassini.
HIs daughter, Marguerite, married Alexander Loiewski. Their two children were Oleg and Igor. Both Oleg and Igor were known as “playboys” and had multiple wives. When Oleg died, his estate was worth over $60 million dollars – which is when Marianne Nestor produced a marriage certificate from 1971.
As mentioned, Peggy Nestor is Marianne’s sister and mother to Lee Nestor – Del Bigtree’s wife. This is why we see Lee Nestor in “Cassini Perfume” advertisements.
Marianne and Peggy controlled the Cassini estate and companies after his death.
Oleg Cassini’s brother, Igor was married to Charlene Wrightsman Cassini, the daughter of the Charles B. Wrightman who was the neighbor of Hollywood Kingpin Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr. (RFK and JFK’s father).
It was Bobby Kennedy Sr. (RFK Jr.’s father) who indicted Igor Cassini.
We now understand that Del has links to Hollywood and direct links to the
If we understand psychological warfare, then we also understand that Hollywood is often used in propaganda operations. I might even go as far as suggesting that Hollywood is the propaganda arm of the United States Military.
The main goal of the Del Bigtree operation is to catch the first layer of regular folks who fall through the holes of the mainstream media’s fraudulent COVID narrative net. These are folks who haven’t researched much, still believe COVID is caused by a virus, but may be hesitant about the new experimental vaccines. Some of them might be distrustful of Government and wary of vaccine mandates. They generally believe that most vaccines are probably safe and effective, you may find some who are just now starting to be skeptical of all vaccines. Many of these people became skeptics specifically due to Del’s Vaxxed movie. This has been carefully planned for years, as we will come to see.
The fake anti-vaccine opposition strategy aims to harness all of these people, soften their opposition voice, and steer them into a well-crafted and carefully manufactured faux movement that will never get “too extreme.” Ultimately, this is controlled by Big Pharma, the banking cartel and various 3-letter agencies who understand that in order to achieve their objectives, they must have full control over the opposition voice. They cannot risk these folks being “radicalized” by those of us who have actually done the research and understand this psyop in detail, and they definitely cannot risk these folks wandering off to research for themselves.
In order to do this, they must first construct a new pen to herd the sheep into. This pen is carefully constructed with artificial boundaries that are created specifically to draw the limits as to what is and is not and acceptable level of dissent. If they don’t do this, then they run the risk of the public and start asking deeper questions about viruses and vaccines while redrawing the boundaries of a new box to keep them inside of.
What is imperative to understand is that this pen is where they want everyone to end up in, from the beginning. In order to do that, they must construct the cartoonish Fauci/Gates/Pfizer evil empire and then reveal it as such, gradually so that over time, more people will gravitate towards the pen that they want everyone in, because it looks safer than the mainstream’s pen. It’s a bait and switch. An illusion.
The powers that be cannot have these fence-sitters digging any further and they cannot afford to have the public learn the truth about Polio, HIV, Smallpox, Spanish Flu, Ebola, etc. So they simply create this new pen and dress it up as the “extreme opposition conspiracy voice,” knowing full well that reasonable skeptics won’t see it as such and gravitate towards it. Over time, they’ll deliberately reveal the evil corruption so that any normies that decide to abandon the first pen will immediately end up in second one.
In order for this strategy to succeed, they need sheepherders, or leaders. False prophets. Del Bigtree plays the role of one of these sheepherders. His job is to collect the sheep that have left the first pen, as well as the others who are still grazing freely in the open field, and gather them all up into the new fake opposition pen. Del was hired for this role years ago, with the Vaxxed project. In this new pen, the acceptable narrative is painted for them and their opinions are slowly molded and shaped into exactly what the overlords want. The narrative will be exactly the same as the mainstream’s narrative with a dash of hesitancy or skepticism about vaccines and a call to make sure that they are “safer” (less dangerous).
This is a classic example of a limited hangout operation, where a little bit of the truth is revealed (vaccines are dangerous), only to then cover it up with more lies (we can make them safer) and misdirects.
Most people believe that Del Bigtree is a man of strong integrity who is “fighting against corruption”. I can assure you, this is not the case. By the time you reach the end of this document and explore some more of Greg’s research, you will come to understand that Del Bigtree, like many others before him, is just another fraud in a long line of clever con-men. In order to open our minds to this hypothesis, let’s take a look at Del’s career.
Del’s Showbiz Career and Some Very Lucrative Moves
Del directed Partners in 2003. This film is a soft porn video short film starring Del’s wife Lee Nestor. The story involves one woman lying in bed while another woman sexually pleasures her under the covers. It seems that many now involved in the safer VaxXed movement directly or indirectly were involved in questionable professions in typical Hollywood style…
Del was the executive producer and director of Bitter Sweet in 2005. In 2007 he co-produced and co-directed with his wife Lee Nestor, Sex and Sensuality, another sexually charged production(16). Lee’s mother, Peggy Nestor, was also co-producer. The movie stars Lee Nestor as Gabrielle Marks as she undresses and bathes while describing a dirty little secret(7).
The Doctors, a successful pro pharmaceutical talk show created by Phil
McGraw (aka Dr. Phil), has over 1,125 episodes and was first aired on
Del then got involved in Vaxxed: From Coverup to Catastrophe, when the movie was over 80% complete. The original content was to belong to an Andrew Wakefielddocumentary. Andrew Wakefield started touring, by himself, in 2015 to raise monies for Thompson’s legal defense fund. That is when Wakefield met Del Bigtree through Larry Cook, an early monitizer of vaccine injury stories who got Bigtrees attention. Through a series of secret meetings the plan was hatched. Exploit and monetize the vaccine injured and create the first stage of a never ending revenue stream off exploitation of the vaccine injured and dead Similar to the Alex Sporticus exploitation piece that Polly Tommey and her Autism Media Channel had turned into a movie almost a decade earlier.
In early 2016, Del Bigtree added to the script with California’s Senate Bill 277h rally footage and interviews with self-proclaimed whistleblower Brandy Vaughan. By March 2016, after Bigtree had finished adding his content and edits – the film was released.
Once the movie was out and in circulation in various theaters across the U.S., Del decided that he should be doing the movie roll-outs and post movie question and answer sessions. Del had forced Andrew out by November of 2016 and lawsuits followed as Bigtree was to on tour for several months with the crew and he refused to leave seeing bigger paydays in the months/years to come.
When Del took over the Vaxxed movie, he was paid $15,000 a month. And now? Del now makes $500,000+ a year. A very lucrative career change from being a producer on Dr. Phil.
…
So this leads to the question. Who is Del Bigtree and what are his motivations?
Well, Del makes a lot more than that, now. But this is useful to give us an idea of his career moves. Another thing worth noting is that Del seems to have a lot of Hollywood / Masonic energy around him. For example, he’s always wearing purple.
Purple is a known Masonic Color. You can see it displayed prominently as one of the main colors in the Master Mason’s Lodge and for the Chapter of Royal Arch Companions, these two Masonic bodies being indissolubly connected since the Royal Arch is an essential and component part of the present-day mutilated Master Mason’s degree.
For this reason purple is adopted as the proper color for the Mark, the Past, and the Most Excellent Master degrees, to symbolize the fact that those degrees connect the Master Mason’s degree with the Royal Arch.
When Del Bigtree poses for an official photoshoot next to a Masonic / Illuminati black and white checkered floor, wearing purple socks, he is telling you straight away who he really works for … the only question is – will you notice?
Here’s Del with fellow grifter and deceiver, RashidButtar, another COVID con man and controlled opposition agent.
We can see Del wearing lavender or purple more often than not.
Another thing worth notice is that Del smokes a LOT of weed. Just look at his eyes, in this photo and you’ll see it clearly. Perhaps that’s why he chose the Bigtree last name and the Highwire as the name of his show. Of course I would never judge anyone for smoking marijuana. Smoke it up! But is this really who we want leading the so-called anti-vaccine movement? For me, I’d prefer someone dedicated and focused, not someone who is hitting big trees all day.
PART 3 – THE BIG MONEY BEHIND THE BIG TREE
One way to hijack legitimate grassroots movements is through sleazy billionaire philanthropists and charity fraud schemes.
“By providing the funding and the policy framework to many concerned and dedicated people working within the non-profit sector, the ruling class is able to co-opt leadership from grassroots communities, … and is able to make the funding, accounting, and evaluation components of the work so time consuming and onerous that social justice work is virtually impossible under these conditions” -Paul Kivel (You Call this a Democracy? Who Benefits, who Pays and who Really
Decides?)
Meet Bernard and Lisa Selz
This New York Couple Has Donated Millions to Museums — And the Anti-Vax Movement
Bernard and Lisa Selz have contributed more than $3 million in recent years to the anti-vax movement. They’ve also given millions to institutions like the Frick Collection, the Brooklyn Museum, the Dallas Art Museum, and the World Monuments Fund.
.
What connects the Brooklyn Museum and other art institutions to the ongoing measles outbreak, which has surged to its highest point in nearly three decades with more than 1,000 documented cases this year? A name.
An investigation by the Washington Post claims that Lisa and Bernard Selz have contributed more than $3 million in recent years to organizations that [“]empower[“] the anti-vaccine movement through online and live events. The couple is also a fixture of the art philanthropy circuit. Bernard Selz is currently a trustee for the Frick Collection; previously, he served on the Walters Art Museum’s board from 2011–2017. At the Brooklyn Museum, an endowed senior curatorial position in Asian art is named after the couple and is currently held by the art historian Joan Cummins. Columbia University has a professorship for Medieval art under the couple’s name, which is currently held by Stephen Murray. This is the second position at the university endowed by the Selzes. In 2002, Esther Pasztory became the Lisa and Bernard Selz Professor in Pre-Columbian Art.
According to the publication Inside Philanthropy, the Selzes have given substantial donations through their foundation to cultural institutions including the Dallas Museum of Art, the National Museum of the American Indian, the Penn Museum of Archeology and Anthropology, the American Classical Orchestra, the Jacob Burns Film Center, and Montana’s Livingston Center for Art and Culture.
Public records also indicate that the family gave over $4.75 million to the World Monuments Fund since 2003, an organization dedicated to the preservation of historic architecture and cultural heritage sites. Bernard Selz currently sits on that organization’s board of trustees; he is also on the director’s council of New York University’s Institute for the Study of the Ancient World.
Alongside their financial support for the arts community, the Selzes have used their wealth to bolster a handful of determined individuals who have played an outsized role in disseminating misinformation about vaccines and the diseases they prevent.
The epicenter of the measles outbreak is only miles away from the Brooklyn Museum in the
Hasidic-Jewish neighborhood of Williamsburg. There, the chief executive of the Informed
Consent Action Network (ICAN) has headlined forums advocating against vaccinations. The
Selz Foundation has provided the organization with roughly three-fourths of its funding, and Lisa Selz serves as the group’s president. The public face of ICAN, however, is Del Bigtree, a former daytime television show producer. (Source)
There is nothing grassroots or “We the People” about any of these folks. They hijacked and co-opted any real anti-vaccine movement a long time ago. They are 100% big money, establishment elites.
Bernard Selz founded Selz Capital in November 2003. The firm is headquartered in New York City. It has approximately $750 million from 24 high net worth clients under management.
These are the people who bankroll Del Bigtree. They are his bosses.
‘The Selz Foundation’ gave ‘AUTISM MEDIA CHANNEL FOUNDATION’ a $575,000 grant and ‘INFORMED CONSENT ACTION NETWORK’ a $100,000 grant while Selz Capital LLC upped its position in Gilead Sciences Inc.(NASDAQ:GILD) which has exclusive rights to Hookipa’s

In this 2019 interview, Del was asked directly if he had a major source of funding and he said no. So, why wouldn’t he disclose this?
In 2012, the Selz Foundation gave a $200,000 gift to Andrew Wakefield.
Remember, it was Wakefield who joined forces with Del Bigtree on Vaxxed. Wakefield was pushing to break up the MMR vaccine, which sounds like a good thing, but the problem is that he had a patent for another vaccine to treat autism waiting in the wings, which he did not publicly disclose. You can read about that here, and view the patent for yourself here.
The Selzes later donated $1.6 million over several years to two organizations founded by Wakefield.

Yes, Andrew Wakefield, the Doctor who was “exposing” the link between the MMR Vaccine and Autism (and Del’s business partner on the Vaxxed film) filed patents for ‘safer’ vaccines – to treat autism.
Because of the Selz Foundation’s support, ICAN founder Del Bigtree spent a few years traveling the country hosting events and setting up several creative grifting operations and multiple charity fraud schemes (more on this later). He has also been used as a mouthpiece to help lobby lawmakers in order to further the group’s pro-vaccine agenda.
Lisa Selz was the president of ICAN in 2017 and 2018 before Scott Guidry became President in 2019. Pro-vaccine author JB Handley of “Ending the Autism Epidemic” was the secretary.
Bernard Selz is an American fund manager and “philanthropist” and works at Lazard. Lazard Ltd (formerly known as Lazard Frères & Co.) is a financial advisory and asset management firm that engages in investment banking, asset management and other financial services, primarily with institutional clients. It is the world’s largest independent investment bank, with principal executive offices in New York City, Paris and London.
Lazard also employs Nathaniel Rothschild, Bruce Wassterstein and Gerald Rosenfeld and other big banking vultures. Naturally they are heavily invested in Big Pharma giants like Pfizer, Novartis and others.
Gerald Rosenfeldis an American businessman, academic, and investment banker.[1] He is well known as the former Head of Investment Banking of Lazard[2] and as the former CEO of Rothschild North-America from 2000 to 2007.[3][4] He is currently an Adjunct Professor of
Finance at New York University Stern School of Business, teaching in their Executive Education
Open Enrollment program, Integrated Law and Business Financial Risk Management. Until February 2011, Rosenfeld continued to work at Rothschild in the capacity of senior advisor. In 2011, he returned to Lazard as a senior executive.
Bruce Jay Wassersteinwas an American investment banker, businessman, and writer. He was a graduate of the McBurney School,[2] University of Michigan, Harvard Business School, and Harvard Law School, and spent a year at the University of Cambridge. He was prominent in the mergers and acquisitions industry, credited with working on 1,000 transactions with a total value of approximately $250 billion.
Nathaniel Philip Victor James Rothschildis a British-born financier who settled in Switzerland, and a member of the Rothschild family. He is the chairman of Volex plc, a UK-listed manufacturer. He has a wide range of international business interests.
Do you trust these people to lead the “safer” vaccine movement? I don’t.
Some might say that I’m making connections where there are none. That’s not my intent. My intent is simply to show you who Bernard Selz is, who he works with and who he works for…
From 2000-2010 Lazard was Pfizer’s favorite financial adviser. A list of Lazard’s assignments for Pfizer–courtesy of Standard & Poor’s database CapitalIQ – includes advising the pharmaceutical giant on a raft of deals, including the $195 million acquisition of Encysive Pharmaceuticals last year, the $220.6 million acquisition of Coley Pharmaceutical Group in 2007; the $1.9 billion acquisition of Vicuron Pharmaceuticals in 2005; the acquisition of Idun Pharmaceuticals in 2005; a $500 million stake in Rinat Neuroscience in 2006; the world-wide rights to Sanofi-Aventis’s insulin drug Exubera for $1.3 billion that same year; and eight other deals since 2000.
In more recent years, Lazard has been conspicuously absent from Pfizer deals. I speculate that this is a deliberate attempt to distance themselves to keep up public appearances.
“ICAN was established with a $100,000 grant from the Selz Foundation. Its budget ballooned to $1.4 million in 2017, with one million coming from the Selz Foundation, making ICAN the most well-funded anti-vaccination group in the United States that year.[16] In 2019, ICAN received
$2.46 million from the charitable foundation of investment firm T. Rowe Price.[17]”
Among the top 10 holdings in their Health Services Fund, we find Thermo Fisher Scientific (who makes fraudulent sequencing machines) and AstraZaneca. By looking at their financials we can see that T. Rowe Price is also heavily invested in many pharmaceutical and biotech companies including Merck, BioNTech, Amgen, and many others.
So, let’s ask a reasonable question. Why would a giant Global investment firm that is heavily invested in huge pharmaceutical companies, donate $2.46 million dollars to fund an anti-vaccine group?
Bigtree lovers will say that the donations that T. Rowe Price gave to ICAN were given by their donor advised charitable fund. Yes, that’s true. The amounts were $2.5 million in 2019 and $900,000 in 2018. Of course they have to disguise their money laundering via charity fraud. I doubt there’s a way to trace the paper trail back to each individual donor. But let’s just ask a simple question. Why would an investment fund donate that much money to a so-called anti-vax non-profit? Are they expecting a return on their investment? If this is all truly a matter of altruistic and humanitarian giving to the community, then why would they choose an “anti-vax” group? Are we to believe that all these individual donors are crazy anti-vaxxers? To me, it just sounds like classic money laundering.
We know that none of these folks are actually anti-vaccine or against Big
Pharma. That’s an illusion. They serve Big Pharma’s interests, indirectly. If Bernard Selz was really funding a dangerous anti-vax group, why would Lazard keep him employed?
These people are silencing the real anti-vaccine movement and the voices of parents with real vaccine injured children, parents like Greg Wyatt. Their “middle of the road” approach is designed to push real anti-vaxxers out of the discussion all together, label those people as crazy and then hijack the opposition and setup elaborate schemes to eventually profit.
These groups are heavily invested in the manufacturing of vaccines – and the mainstream media calls them anti-vaxxers! The entire thing is a demonstrable scam.
Notice how WikiPedia and the mainstream media labels the Selz Foundation as an anti-vax group. The liars at the Business Insidersay that the Selz Foundation is “donating millions to the anti-vax movement.” How silly is that? They are trying to frame these pro-vaccine advocates as anti-vaxxers!
These are obvious lies, as I’ve shown. The not so obvious lies are that the Selzes, the Bigtrees, the RFKs are all pro-vaccine. They all stand to PROFIT from the manufacturing of NEW, AND SAFER VACCINES.
Disagree? Then why did they pair up with WakefIeld, and fund him? Do you think they didn’t know anything about his patent for a new “safer” MMR vaccine? Of course they did.
But those who have done their homework understand that there is no such thing as a safe vaccine.
Question – What is the opposite of the word Safe? Answer – Dangerous
So, by definition – something that is “safer” means that it is less dangerous.
But it’s still dangerous, and these people understand this. They aren’t truly anti-vaccine, because they have a lot of money to make off of the sale of “less dangerous” vaccines. You can understand their agenda by taking them at their word – Their job is to make sure that the vaccines (mandatory or not) are less dangerous.
Now you’re probably thinking that I haven’t exposed much here, which is true. This is all public record and nothing new. Most of this information has been floating around the internet for well over a year, I just compiled it and added some of my own research. But we’re just getting started and there’s oh, so much more. For now, I will leave you with one simple question.
Is there anyone in the anti-vaccine movement who is actually anti-vaccine?
PART 4: THE FARCICAL FALLACY OF SAFE VACCINES
There must be hundreds of thousands of parents in America and indeed all over the world whose children have been injured by vaccines. We have no way of knowing the real numbers. But many of these parents have done deep research on the subject. When I say deep research, I mean they’ve studied the issue extensively, have read dozens of books and papers on the subject and understand the issue far better than RFK Jr. or Del Bigtree. Once you reach a point where YOU have done more research than these men, then it becomes much easier to see that they are either grossly uninformed or they are lying.
Once we dedicate the time, we come to understand that there is no such thing as a safe vaccine. Period. If you disagree, then this paper isn’t for you, you still have a lot morE research to do. When we understand that these diseases for which vaccines are prescribed to prevent are not caused by viruses, then we also understand that the entire concept of a vaccine is fraudulent.
“We are not anti-vaccine. We are pro vaccine safety. It’s time to bring scientific integrity to our nation’s vaccine program.” – RFK Jr.
On July 9, 2018 – Del Bigtree / ICAN filed this lawsuit, co-authored by RFK Jr. against the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Note that the title of the lawsuit is “Mandate for safer childhood vaccines.”
Think about the wording of that sentence and what their real goals are. As stated clearly in the lawsuit, they want to:
(1) promote the development of childhood vaccines that result in fewer and less serious adverse reactions than those vaccines on the market on December 22, 1987, and promote the refinement of such vaccines, and
There you have it. They are interested in promoting the development of childhood vaccines. As long as vaccines have fewer and less serious adverse reactions, then these people are perfectly fine with pumping children full of them.
The problem is that this entire lawsuit is based on a false premise. It’s impossible to make vaccines safe. The best one can do is make them less dangerous.
Is that good enough for you or your children?
These people are only pretending to fight for us. They’re not anti-vaccine as they’ve said over and over and over again. They are very much rabidly and fiercely pro-vaccine. It’s up to you to decide if you think this is just because they haven’t done the research, or if there’s something more nefarious going on here.
If you want to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume noble intentions, that’s fine with me. But if that’s the case, it means that they are ignorant, and therefore are in no position to be leading any health freedom movement as it relates to vaccines. Every parent in the country who understands that there is no such thing as a safe vaccine is more qualified to be in these leadership positions than RFK Jr. and Del Bigtree. When we look at the second goal of their lawsuit, their real agenda starts to become clearer.
(2) make or assure improvements in, and otherwise use the authorities of the Secretary with respect to, the licensing, manufacturing, processing, testing, labeling, warning, use instructions, distribution, storage, administration, field surveillance, adverse reaction reporting, and recall of reactogenic lots or batches, of vaccines and research on vaccines, in order to reduce the risks of adverse reactions to vaccines.
This is a thinly veiled attempt to hide what they really want which is more oversight, more regulatory agencies, more control, etc.
THEY WANT MORE GOVERNMENT.
Folks who haven’t spent the ample time doing the exhaustive research required to understand the vaccine issue comprehensively will naturally assume that this is reasonable. Why shouldn’t we have more oversight of these Big Pharma giants?
Because governments don’t really regulate the Pharma companies, that’s why. They work together, against the people. They just call it “regulation” so your dumb liberal friends will support it.
Thanks in part to the efforts of Controlled Oppositionfront NVIC and pro-vaccine deception agent Barbara Loe Fisher, the National ChildhoodVaccine Injury Act was passed in 1986 specifically to grant the Big Pharma companies immunity from lawsuits. After the passage of the 1986 Act, victims of Pharma’s poisonous elixirs could no longer sue the vaccine companies. The 1986 Act allowed the Big Pharma demons to continue doing business and manufacturing their toxic potions of death without any fear of being held financially liable.
As we can read:
(b) UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE SIDE EFFECTS; WARNINGS.— (1) No vaccine manufacturer shall be liable in a civil action for damages arising from a vaccine-related injury or death associated with the administration of a vaccine after the effective date of this part 23 if the injury or death resulted from side effects that were unavoidable even though the vaccine was properly prepared and was accompanied by proper directions and warnings.
From the Supreme Court (2011):
And most relevant to the present case, the Act expressly eliminates liability for a vaccine’s unavoidable, adverse side effects: “No vaccine manufacturer shall be liable in a civil action for damages arising from a vaccine-related injury or death associated with the administration of a vaccine after October 1, 1988, if the injury or death resulted from side effects that were unavoidable even though the vaccine was properly prepared and was accompanied by proper directions and warnings.
So, it’s not just crazy anti-vaxxers who say that all vaccines are dangerous.
Both Congress and the Supreme Court have agreed that this is the case.
Now that we’ve established this irrefutable fact, we have arrived at a very important question.
How is it possible to make vaccines safe, when it’s already been officially ruled that they are “unavoidably unsafe” by both Congress and the Supreme Court?
The answer – It’s not, it’s impossible.
“US Law regards vaccines as unavoidably unsafe, which basically means that there is nothing that can be done to make the product safer without compromising the function of the product. The term comes from the legal document, “Restatement (Second) of Torts, Section 402A”
It’s there in black and white, for all to see. Nothing can be done to make the product safer. Do you think RFK Jr. and Del Bigtree don’t understand this? Do you think they’re stupid? I don’t, I think they know exactly what they’re doing. They know that they can’t make vaccines safe, so they are engaging in deception and theater, to protect Big Pharma.
What they should be doing is warning the entire world about how dangerous vaccines really are. Not just these ones or those ones, but ALL OF THEM. Shouldn’t that be their number one objective? Instead, we get useless lawsuits, half-truths and a years long faux resistance movement, demanding more regulation and smarty pants scientists to conduct more “safety studies.” Remember that the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act was designed specifically to protect the pharmaceutical industry from lawsuits resulting from vaccine related injuries and deaths. Congress concluded that the vaccine companies should be shielded from lawsuits because vaccines are “unavoidably unsafe.”
As a result of this law, the vaccine companies were “granted blanket legal immunity and impunity from all injuries and deaths resulting from vaccines in the United States.” (Source)
Given this undeniable fact, shouldn’t one of the goals of the so-called
“anti-vaccine” movement be to overturn the 1986 Act which protects the vaccine companies? Shouldn’t that be one of their main objectives?
As far as I’m concerned, if vaccines are unavoidably unsafe, then children (and adults) should never be mandated to take them for school or anything else and the public should be working hard to ban them completely or at the very least, repeal the 1986 Act so that the companies are held liable.
But that’s not what Del Bigtree cares about. He just wants to make them safer, which, as we’ve established, is impossible.
So, let’s go back to ICAN’s lawsuit and read some more.
In order to assure HHS meets its vaccine safety obligations, Congress required as part of the 1986 Act that the Secretary of HHS submit a biennial reports to Congress detailing the improvements in vaccine safety made by HHS in the preceding two years. ICAN therefore filed a Freedom of Information Act, FOIA, request on August 25th, 2017 to HHS seeking copies of the biennial reports that HHS was supposed to submit to Congress, starting in 1988, detailing the improvements it made every two years to vaccine safety. HHS stonewalled ICAN for eight months refusing to provide any substantive response to this request.
Once again, we can see clearly that Del Bigtree has no interest in repealing the 1986 Act or abolishing vaccines entirely. All he’s doing is filing mostly useless lawsuit and FOIA requests for reports detailing the improvements in vaccine safety. ICAN, RFK Jr. and Del Bigtree aren’t attempting to get to the root of the problem, all they’re doing is trimming around the edges of the bush.
I don’t know about you, but personally I don’t care about reports. Reports can be completely fabricated. Data can be hidden, statistics can be fudged and documentation can be completely fraudulent. Reports are meaningless. I want results. So far, the only results I’ve seen from Del Bigtree’s efforts are more vaccines.
ICAN was therefore forced to file a lawsuit to force HHS to either provide copies of its biennial vaccine safety reports to Congress or admit it never filed these reports. The result of the lawsuit is that HHS had to finally and shockingly admit that it never, not even once, submitted a single biennial report to Congress detailing the improvements in vaccine safety.
That’s it? That was the result of the lawsuit? I wonder how much money they spent and all we have to show for it is that HHS admitted a thing. Did anyone go to jail? Did anyone get fired? Was anyone forced to pay any fines or resign from their positions? No, they just admitted that they didn’t file the reports, and that’s it. Meanwhile, the vaccine manufacturing machine continued to push forward.
Next, let’s look at this letter that Del Bigtree sentto HHS in 2017. The first thing to notice is that this document is no longer available on ICAN’s website. They used to display it proudly and prominently but now it’s a “page not found.” I had to go to the archives to find it. Why do you think they no longer host it on their website? Are they trying to hide something? Well, let’s take a look. In this letter, dated October 12, 2017, we can read the following:
Americans, including the over 55 organizations listed below, whose members exceed 5 million
Americans, are concerned about vaccine safety. The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (the 1986 Act) made nearly every aspect of vaccine safety the exclusive responsibility of the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS). As the Secretary of HHS (the Secretary), this means you shoulder virtually all responsibility for assuring the safety of vaccines administered to America’s 78 million children.
Notice right away, the same propaganda techniques used by these agents of deception, as they immediately frame the conversation around vaccine safety, which is a misnomer. I encourage you to read the entire letter, but I will outline a few highlights from the conclusion section of the letter.
HHS can do better. With hundreds of vaccines in the pipeline it must do better.
Ahh yes, exactly what we need. More/better government. Del Bigtree isn’t concerned about stopping the hundreds of dangerous vaccines in the pipeline, he’s only concerned with making sure that they’re safe, which as we’ve already established, is impossible.
Children susceptible to vaccine injury are as deserving of protection as any other child.
Isn’t that amazing? This con-man admits to the world that children are susceptible to vaccine injury and then with a straight face wants to sell us the illusion that they can and should be protected by the same people who were responsible for their injuries in the first place.
In other words, it’s not just Big Pharma who is to blame. It’s also Congress who passed the legislation to protect them, and the FDA and HHS who have failed to ensure safety for all these years.
So, Del’s solution is to write a letter to HHS demanding that they participate in “protecting” the children who are “susceptible to vaccine injuries” – thanks to their criminal negligence, incompetence and cozy backdoor dealings with Big Pharma. More on this in a moment.
Avoiding injury to these children is not only a moral and ethical duty, but will in fact strengthen the vaccine program.
There it is. Bold, isn’t it? As we can see again, none of these sharks have any interest whatsoever in taking down Big Pharma or educating the public about the real dangers of vaccines. They want to strengthen the vaccine program. Those are Del Bigtree’s words, in his letter to HHS. If he was truly serious about avoiding injury, then he would demand an immediate halt to all vaccine programs.
Every parent that does not witness their child suffer a serious reaction after vaccination, such as a seizure or paralysis, is another parent that will not add their voice to the growing chorus of parents opposed to HHS’s vaccine program due to safety concerns.
You see? Del doesn’t want to educate us. He doesn’t want the public to learn that so-called “viral diseases” like Polio and Smallpox aren’t caused by viruses, which is why he rarely, if ever talks about these subjects. He has to protect his employers. If he lifted the veil then they would be out of business in no time.
He doesn’t tell his audience which books to read, he controls the narrative to a very specific set of talking points. This is why he uses these limiting phrases when he makes these statements – in this example, the limiting phrase is “due to safety concerns.”
This one phrase limits the conversation and keeps it held tightly, inside a box.
Another limiting phrase and deception can be found in the phrase “parents opposed to HHS’s vaccine program.” This limiting phrase creates the illusion that most parents aren’t opposed to vaccines, they’re only opposed to the program.
Vaccines are generally good! They save lives! Parents are just opposed to HHS’s program. If we can make changes and improvements to the program, then everything will be fine!
So, anyone who knows how to think ahead can see clearly what would naturally come next, right? They’d present their solution to the “dangerous vaccines” in the form of new oversight agencies, and big government/Pharma deals, disguised as “regulation.” We already know that this will happen, because it’s exactly what happened last time when they passed the 1986 Act.
Unless HHS performs its vital statutory obligations regarding vaccine safety, and until a frank conversation is possible regarding vaccine safety, children susceptible to vaccine injury will not be protected from such injuries.
Regardless of what HSS’s “statutory obligations” might be, we know that there is nothing they can do to make vaccines safer. So Del can request as many “frank conversations” as he likes but smart people know that even a thousand “frank conversations” won’t protect children from vaccine injuries.
In other words, Del is calling on HHS – one of the corrupt government agencies directly responsible for vaccine injuries, to solve the problem, and to protect our children! Ha!
Maybe we should give more power to the EPA to protect the environment while we’re at it, as well.
So when will HHS perform these “vital statutory obligations” regarding vaccine safety? How many years of Del Bigtree’s “soft-serve” activism have gone by without a single, tangible result? He’s certainly been busy writing lots of letters, filing useless lawsuits and having “frank conversations.” What has Del Bigtree accomplished in all of these years? What do we have to show for his efforts?
MORE VACCINES!
This guy is collecting millions of dollars from people all over the country to write letters. How many more years will we allow these false prophets to lead us in their never-ending fight for “safer vaccines?” Empty promises from fake, pro-vaccine shapeshifters.
Nor will children injured by vaccines be able to access the services they need.
Can you believe the lack of self-awareness it took to write this sentence?
Why would any reasonable parent want to go to the same people responsible for their child’s injury for “services?” What would be the purpose of that? So they can injure them again?
If Del Bigtree was a real leader with real integrity, then he would demand that we stop giving any and all vaccines to every single child across America, immediately. If we did that, then we wouldn’t need their worthless government “services,” because there would be no more injuries.
If you thought that last sentence was outrageous…
We can do far better in protecting and serving children who are susceptible or succumb to serious injuries from vaccination. The first step in avoiding these harms and helping children already harmed is admitting there are deficiencies and working diligently to improve vaccine safety.
Oh yes, we can do far better.
Once again, if you really want to protect children from something dangerous, isn’t the best solution to keep them as far away from the danger as possible? Del Bigtree and RFK Jr. want us to believe that these problems are merely deficiencies that can be corrected with more legislation, regulation and government.
deficiency: a lack or shortage. a failing or shortcoming.
shortcoming:
a fault or failure to meet a certain standard, typically in a person’s character, a plan, or a system
So the problem isn’t that all vaccines are dangerous, you see. It’s just that they have shortcomings. The problem is that the system simply has deficiencies. If we can just improve upon those shortcomings, then the system will magically
start working for you … it will “do better.”
You can then feel safe and continue to rely on the system.
All we really need is some more benevolent scientists and politicians to help us fix the problem and make the vaccines “safer” (less dangerous).
Del thinks that’s the “first step in avoiding these harms.” I would suggest that the first step would be to stop injecting the children with poison.
If Del Bigtree was serious about protecting children, that’s the message would be sending to Americans. STOP TAKING VACCINES.
Instead, he hides the truth and continues to sell lies about viruses and safe vaccines, while inching us closer and closer to put our trust in their system. Del Bigtree can’t tell us the truth because that would result in his employers losing profits. So he has to sell us lies mixed with half-truths and serve us ice-cream instead.
Of course I can’t definitively or conclusively prove that Del Bigtree works for the enemy (yet). But we are still just scratching the surface, and as we uncover more of his story, the picture will become clearer for you. For now, I’ll just say that it’s my opinion. You are free to continue giving him the benefit of the doubt. I’m sure that many Bigtree apologists reading this are still thinking that he’s a man of integrity, fighting the good fight and he just “can’t go too far” or risk losing the battle.
Even if you want to ascribe honest and sincere intentions to Del Bigtree, he is still the perfect pawn and salesman to lead the so-called “anti-vaccine” movement. Because the powers that be aren’t stupid, they control both sides. That’s why you should always skip door numbers 1 and 2, and go straight to door number 3.
Regardless of whether Del is a willing participant in this gigantic scam or an innocent pawn who is simply ignorant and uninformed – he is still a cog in the wheel of the grand psycop, because he’s protecting the lie of viruses, the pseudoscience of virology and selling the delusional idea that there is such a thing as a safe vaccine. Either way, whether wittingly or unwittingly, he’s participating in the illusion.
Inside of that illusion, they’ve created a fake paradigm about “vaccine safety” and have directed the focus on this, instead of where the focus should be – the true cause of illnesses, the dangerous nature of all vaccines, and the fraud of virology.
We can see this tactic employed over and over and over again by the elites. They hijacked the anti-GMO movement and turned it into a fake clown-show called the “Label GMOs” movement. They convinced the public to accept a watered down version of the real issue. Instead of focusing on the fact that GMOs are dangerous and demand that we ban the use of GMOs, let’s just make sure that every company is responsible to label their products with their poison. That solves the problem! Same bullshit script, same psychological deception games, same assholes like Del Bigtree.
When we accept the truth that illnesses are not caused by viruses, then we also understand that vaccines are a scam. The cabal can’t have that. So they will create all sorts of illusions to keep that hidden from the public and deploy agents like Del Bigtree to keep these lies protected.
Once again, so there’s no confusion – In his letter to HHS, Section VIII, Del Bigtree discusses HHS’s conflicts of interest. Throughout the letter, he also discusses the problems with the regulatory agencies (FDA and CDC) and admits that HHS is the agency that licenses, promotes, defends, recommends and mandates vaccines. If you read the entire letter you will find Del Bigtree list numerous failures and examples of corruption within HHS, the FDA, and the
CDC.
So, who does Del Bigtree go to, to help solve these problems?
HHS! Del wants to protect the three little pigs from the wolf by asking the wolf to help him! What a god damn joke!
Yes, it’s true – both RFK Jr. and Del Bigtree say that they want regulatory agencies that have “unquestioned integrity” and are “free from conflicts of interest,” to make the unavoidably unsafe vaccines, safer. In order to do that, they sent a letter to HHS, the agency partially responsible for dangerous vaccines, asking for help.
Here’s the angel they wanted us to trust with our lives and our childrens’ lives…
Alex Azar
Alex Azar is an American politician, attorney, businessman, lobbyist, and former pharmaceutical executive who served as the United States Secretaryof Health and Human Servicesfrom 2018 to 2021. Azar was nominated to his post by President Donald Trumpon November 13, 2017, and confirmed by the United States Senate on January 24, 2018.
Azar was Eli Lily’s top lobbyist and spokesman, and its senior vice president of corporate affairs and communications.
In April 2009, Azar became vice president of Lilly’s U.S. Managed Healthcare Services organization and its Puerto Ricoaffiliate.[19]In 2009, the company paid $1.415 billion to settle criminal charges regarding its promotion of antipsychoticdrug Zyprexa (olanzapine) for off-label usesbetween 1999 and 2005.
Effective January 1, 2012, Azar became president of Lilly USA, LLC, the largest division of Eli Lilly and Company, and was responsible for the company’s entire operations in the United States.[19]
Prices for drugs rose substantially under Azar’s leadership, including the tripling of the cost of the company’s top-selling insulindrug. Also under Azar’s watch, Eli Lilly was one of three companies accused in a class-action lawsuit of exploiting the drug pricing system to increase profits for insulin. Eli Lilly was also fined in Mexico for colluding on the price of insulin.[20][21]In connection with the position, Azar served on the board of directors of the Biotechnology Innovation Organization, a pharmaceutical lobby.[22]
In January, 2017, Azar resigned from Eli Lily and made $2 million on his way out. In typical revolving door fashion, he was then named Secretery of HHS by Presdient Trump in November, 2017.
This is the man who is responsible for “regulating” the pharmaceutical industry and insuring the “safety” of vaccines. That’s his job.
In 2018, Alex Azar accepted RFK and Del BigTree’s legal Notice for enforcing “mandates for safer childhood vaccines” and for ensuring “vaccine safety,” an impossible task, as I’ve outlined above.
So they claim they want “good science” and regulatory agencies free of conflicts of interest, and this is the guy they reach out to for help? Is Alex Azar free from conflicts of interest?
While he was working at Eli Lilly,
Azar oversaw the sale of some of the company’s most profitable and controversialproducts. These include: recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH), which Lilly bought from Monsanto and which increase the risk of developing breast and gastrointestinal cancers’ Thimerosal, a mercury-containing vaccine preservative linked to neurodevelopmental problems in infants and children; and Prozac, a highly profitable drugs used to treat depression that was later found to actually do nothing more than a placebo to decrease most forms of depression but instead increased suicidal tendencies.
This is the man that was tasked with “assuring the safety, effectiveness, quality, and security of pharmaceutical products manufactured and sold in the U.S, including the “safety” of vaccines.”
This is the guy that Del Bigtree thought would help solve the “safety” problem, back in 2017/2018.
Eli Lilly is the inventor and was the primary manufacturer of thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative used in vaccines that is linked to autism and other neurological disorders. Prior to employment at Eli Lilly, under George W. Bush, Azar was general counsel and later deputy secretary of HHS at the time the decision was made to give an expedited efficacy and safety review to Gardasil, a vaccine for human papilloma virus produced by Merck that has enormous safety issues.”
As general counsel (head attorney) for HHS, Azar participated in the Autism Omnibus Proceeding that denied more than 5000 claims of vaccine injury, even though HHS settled one of the test cases that found that Hannah Poling’s autism was indeed caused by vaccine injury.”
Does Alex Azar sound like a man of integrity to you? In other words, Del Bigtree wants to hire the fox to guard the hen house. This is the best we can do in our fight against Big Pharma. A Big Pharma loyalist and vaccine demon.
Thankfully, Alex Azar is no longer at HHS, but the point is that during his tenure in 2017/2018, this is the person that RFK Jr. and Del Bigtree entrusted to “protect children” and provide safety reports, improve vaccine “safety,” promote the development of childhood vaccines and strengthen the vaccine program.
I hope you can see that this is nothing but a massive dog and pony show and Del Bigtree is a direct and active participant in this charade.

“A number of different experiments were made on 68 volunteers from US naval detention training camp on deer Island.
Several groups of men were inoculated with pure cultures of Pfeiffer’s bacillus, with secretions from the upper respiratory passages, and with blood from typical cases of influenza. About 30 man had the germs sprayed or swabbed in nose and throat.
They say of the results: “in no instance was an attack of influenza produced in any one of the subjects. “
10 more men were taken to the bedside of 10 new cases of influenza, spent 45 minutes with them, and each well man had 10 sick man cough in his face.
They say of these cases: “none of these volunteers developed any symptoms of influenza following this experiment.”
In another article the results of similar experiments in San Francisco are described.
In his experiments one group of 10 men had emulsifying cultures of Pfeiffer’s bacillus with no results in seven days observations.
Other groups of men ( 40 in all ) Received emotions of secretions from the upper respiratory passages of active cases of influenza which we were instilled into nose by medicine dropper or atomizer.
Of these it says: “In every case the results were negative so far is the reproduction of influenza is concerned. The men were all observed for seven days after inoculation. “
Last, but not least, Dr. John B Fraser, in an article entitled “do germs cause disease? “In the physical culture magazine for May, 1919, says that experiment carried out in Toronto in 1911 1912 in 1913 prove that germs only appear after the onset of the disease and goes on to say “and this fact lead to the supposition that germs were simply a byproduct of disease and possibly harmless “
He also describes experiments were millions of germs were fed to patients in their food, or swabbed over the tonsils and soft palate, under the tongue and in the nostrils, and still no evidence of disease was discernible.
The Germs used in the experiment included the germs of diphtheria, pneumonia, typhoid fever, meningitis and tuberculosis and no evidence of the diseases have developed in nearly 5 years.
He says: “during the years 1914 through 1918/150 experiments were carried out carefully and scientifically and yet absolutely no signs of disease followed”Visit the channel The Natural Human Diet:
