In 2009 -2011 it was my job (working for Fauci) to evaluate the H1N1 vaccine data in kids. Across three flu seasons, I was fortunate to be able to follow a cohort that we trialed.

It clearly showed negative efficacy, in fact I asked, "is this inducing tolerance, like those allergy shots?"

The reaction was swift and furious and not beneficial, at all, to me and my career. And of course it all got buried.

Hi I pinned this. Please don't change the comment. If you could provide a more detail summary of what happened at some point to me I would greatly appreciate it.

Midwest Doc

Just going memory. No records were allowed for me to keep.

This was back in 2011. In 2010 I received the NIH Dir Team Award for the Pandemic Response.

In early 2011 Fauci et al tried to make me work with CCP in Wuhan to develop and trial a hemorrhagic fever chimeric virus.

I refused because I called it treason. And I subsequently contacted many senators, including Grassley. Filed Complaint with Office Special Counsel. Rejected because I was “a contract hire’ , and thus ignored.

I was brought in to NIH early in 2009 to run H1N1 pandemic clinical trials remotely for pregnant women and pediatrics. Then worked with the hospital ‘partners’, VA, Europe, WHO and Pharma databases to evaluate responses.

Kids were trialed for first time for a flu vax. H1N1 was put in the next two flu cycles. Endpoints were reported, as open label. Antibody levels and adverse events, flu and respiratory infections. I do remember discussing this with a Pharma colleague who agreed that he got sick and sicker after each flu vax. He was very surprised.

When I tried to submit my analysis, the project was taken away from me.

In March 2011 I I was marched out of NIH, my office contents seized.

Serious threats came from Collins and others, got blacklisted from feds and Pharma for jobs.

Grassley et al: said will just watch them all to see who they can flush out. Obama had gutted all Inspector General Offices. But when Trump came in, he identified 300K Chinese grad students at all the institutions and universities and Pharma who were actually PLA/CCP. He kicked them out.

The shadow govt is still going on … to identify the collaborators and major bad actors.

THE INFILTRATION IS SOOOOOOO EXTENSIVE AND PERVASIVE. That was my biggest shocking discovery.

Good to hear it from someone with personal experience, but in the last two years, anyone interested and able to read could have found out that ALL "vaccines" are poisons with absolutely no "benefits."

Why is it that "the truth," especially recently, tends to come out only after nothing can be done about it?

I am an unvaccinated ophthalmologist in northern New Jersey. I lost hospital privileges over this whole thing and I was treated exactly the way you described here. The entire board of the Valley Hosp in Ridgewood New Jersey is oblivious and blind. I’ve been as non-confrontational as possible but sometimes I’ve had to stand up and really defend myself.

I was called irresponsible, reckless some people made comments about my “manhood“, that somehow I was a coward

And this was all from medical colleagues

Their brains were broken by fear. They failed the greatest moral test of their lives

I am so sorry you had to endure such unjust treatment, yet each time I read a reply like yours, it gladdens my heart to know that there are those in the medical community who have critical thinking skills and thus have the fortitude to stand on principle. I hope you regain the respect of your colleagues as more and more truths about the harms of the vaccine come to light.

thanks. back when the obamacare act was passed. I thought that was the last straw. The gov was asserting the right to force people to buy a private product and asserting the right to punish them if they didnt. hardly a more unconstitutional and immoral thing could be imagined. And obama did it entirely , 100% to buy the votes of the 40-50 million people who at the time didnt have health insurance for one reason or another.

And the supreme court OK this abomination. The SCOTUS is the MOST failed institution in the world.

Now we witness the government trying to force you take an experimental drug that you dont want and dont need and threatening to punish you if you dont or empowering private businesses to punish you if you dont and bribing and threatening private businesses to coerce you .

plus the governement forced millions of people to cover their faces with useless masks just because .... well because they said so. Masks are useless at stopping covid.

It was a form of extortion. take the jab and wear a mask or else you cant go to school , travel or access the health care system or even work in some cases.

Hardly a more evil fascistic program could be imagined and where was the SCOTUS? largely ON BOARD. THE CMS vax mandate was OKs by scotus. The masks were not stopped by scotus or any state supremem court. it took one conservative florida judge to beat down the mask mandates on airplane remember.

So as a 55 year old doc with 25 years of clinical experience , who grew up in a consiervative jewish hom in the 1970s. I rememeber when the US was actually a free country . When the word democracry actually meant something and our public officials were generally informed cirsumspect thoughful public servants who actually wanted to serve the people and took the ideas of freedom and liberty seriously , not a group of lunatic hyperpartisans

SO this jab mandate and mask madates were the last straw

There is proof! Corneal transplants are failing for the vaccinated. Corneas are one of the most successful, readily accepted transplants of the human body. Now showing rejections in unseen numbers. Talk about canary in the coal mine. Feel grateful that you are strong, have good instincts, and understand medicine well.

I worked for a Neuro Ophthalmologist who was so impressive. The man diagnosed a cardiac event through an eye exam one time.

He was patient and understood fear. We could use an open minded detective like him about now.

You must be from the same ilk. Stay true and strong as you are representing all of us.

I am sorry for the rotten attitude that they have demonstrated. They are children emotionally and they are behaving badly. That can hurt us, but as long as we fight as adults we will be fine.

This was the article that alerted me. It was written by Dr. Mary Gillis, D. Ed. September 13, 2022. I am not tech savvy by any means..

"Japanese researchers compiled data from 23 studies. A total of 23 eyes from 21 patients who had undergone corneal graft procedures were assessed. Graft rejection occurred anywhere from one day to six weeks after vaccination in all patients–some who underwent the procedure as far back as twenty years ago."

This is unheard of. Imagine if this starts occurring for other transplants.

An unrelated note: I experienced an image verified takotsubo event in March with many lasting effects. Memory and deductive reasoning have suffered which has slowed but has not quelled my desire to understand.

Thank you so much for speaking out. As much as it pains me to say so, because I have friends who are MDs and RNs and believe they are good and moral people, I will never trust any allopathic doctor or hospital again. I am in the process of creating a "no blood or plasma transfusion" order to keep with me in case of emergencies and have told my nearest and dearest not to take me to a hospital unless I am conscious and ask them to myself, no matter what has happened to me. I have stopped going to yearly screenings, which I no longer trust to give me honest results about my health, and will focus on using natural remedies like fasting, herbs, and nutrition (along with certain banned anti-parasitics that have proven to stop tumor growth, among many other things).

You are doing important work here and I'm grateful that you're here to tell us what's going on from the other side of the curtain. But until those responsible for this crime against humanity are brought to trial and hanged by the neck until they are dead, for all to see, I fear that many millions of us will never again trust anyone in any position of authority. Why should we? It has been made clear over the last two years that our governments and the massive global corporations that prop them up are actively trying to murder us. All we can do is pray that God's justice is furious and swift.

Thank you. One thing I wanna mention is that I have known numerous famous and very talented naturopathic doctors who developed a medical condition that was relatively easy to treat with conventional medicine but they chose not to go to the hospital (as they were deathly afraid of them) and the individual died as a result. Although many things on Western medicine are harmful, there are some things that are very useful, so you need to be mindful to not avoid going to the ER if something seems seriously wrong. That said, other than physicals I was required to do, I have only seen a conventional doctor once in the last 20 years. However, at the same time I'm fortunate to have the medical knowledge that allows me to know which things you actually need help for (which is a knowledge base most people don't have), and even with that, a few years ago, I had an issue I was very close to seeing a surgeon for I was able to figure out about 12 hours before is planning on to the ER.

TKU - Indeed, a word to the wise is sufficient. That said, concerning Dr.'s and hospitals, it is now imperative to think ahead of any and all possible options. I moved from the PNW to Midwest, thinking the people here would be much more sensible, conservative, practical, down to earth, and I am very happy to report those values seem to be in evidence. That gives me hope and faith, because I was getting very very nervous to see what was happening to everyday life & general circumstances, in Western WA. Seriously, and I am not easily intimidated. It's the horrible protocol(s) and "systems" we have to navigate when dealing with hospitals and medical personnel, how ever well meaning they might be. A PATIENTS BILL OF RIGHTS, is an absolute necessity to have in one's possession as well as an ADVOCATE by your side. And the fact that it is so difficult to check yourself out, and the surrender of all of your privacy etc. It just seems to me like it is not worth it. I'm about to order and read the award winning book: BIG BROTHER IN THE EXAM ROOM.

Definitely a personal risk analysis for each possible or probable scenario one might encounter with their own health, with some kind of flow chart, is a very worthwhile thought exercise, and maybe even worth putting pen to paper. As much as I hate tele-medicine, it might have it's place, if you were able to prearrange with a physician you absolutely trusted and was someone who appreciated the (insanity of) new normal and could suggest possible ideas for avoiding or mitigating a serious situation. I've thought about possible candidates for such a relationship.

@Blue Skies, you stated, "I fear...many will never again trust anyone in a position of authority." I think that this loss represents one of the greatest gift to have arisen from the past three years. Within each of we resides the capacity for recognizing our individual self as a being with the ultimate authority. Fear is indeed the mind killer. Many minds have been laid waste for reasons I do not fully understand, but my curiosity and desire to persist remains. I was fortunate to be born by a mother who was able to love and raise me despite being a victim of horrific childhood trauma. I learned early in life that trust was contingent upon performance and not title. I am still learning to love what I represent.

It's so sad that it has come to this. Like you, I can never trust another doctor again (and definitely can't trust the hospital). The last doctor's appt. I made was back in early 2021 just as things were beginning to re-open and it was for a mammogram. When I called to make the appointment, I was told I could only get this cancer screening IF I was fully vaccinated which I was not. When I brought up the fact that I had already lost a year of screenings due to the lockdowns and that this policy is just going to cause more women to skip screenings in general leading to undiagnosed cancers, the office said that I could go to another doctor and get a PCR test and show them a copy of it, and IF and only if that was negative, could I get the mammogram.

I was so livid that I reached out to a local breast cancer survivor network telling them that these policies discriminate against women based on their vax status, and that it is forcing them to pay more $ (that they may not have) to see another doc and get a PCR test, and I asked what happens if a woman finds a lump and then tests positive for Covid. She will be forced to delay a diagnosis and treatment for weeks. A doctor from this survivor network wrote me back and said that she would look into it, but never indicated that it concerned her one bit, and I never heard from her again after repeated attempts. The group ghosted me.

I have ceased all screenings with allopathic docs and am in the process of trying to find a naturopath. I feel many will be going in this direction.

Expand full comment

There are a lot of issues with mammogram screening, and I do not believe it's the best way to evaluate for breast cancer. That said, most of the facilities are dropping the vaccine requirement now because it's causing them to lose money which is all that really matters in healthcare at an administrative level.

That said, the one thing that I think will motivate the medical field to behave better is if they start losing a lot of money from patients not wanting to see them, so I am praying what has happened now will result in a better practice of medicine in the future.

I agree regarding the problems with yearly mammograms especially as they relate to false positives and diagnosing cancers that lead to unnecessary invasive treatments.

Several years back I opted to switch to tomography mammo's which are supposed to detect the tiniest smallest cancers that 2D mammo's can't. Well, the tomo showed a suspicious place on my breast. Docs said it is most likely cancer and that I needed to get a stereotactic biopsy (very $$). I get the biopsy and then after a week of hellish waiting for results (I was literally convinced I was going to die) it turns out that the suspicious spot was nothing at all. No cancer. Nothing. Icing on the cake came two weeks later when I got a bill for $15,000 for the biopsy.

Was that with or without insurance?

Expand full comment

Mammograms are another of the allopathic scams. How can it be healthy to squeeze and radiate your breast? It’s not. I gave them up years ago because there is no history of breast cancer in my family. Just out of curiosity as much as anything, I did have thermography done a couple of years ago. I go to a naturopathic doctor and it was done in his office for about $150. Of course insurance doesn’t pay for that, but it’s a much healthier option for women who have concerns about breast cancer.

I stopped getting pap smears 25 years ago and never got a mammogram. The whole thing seemed like a scam to me. All my pap smears were irregular and required additional tests I never took. Here I am still alive 25 years later. Go figure.

Expand full comment

There is some degree of benefit that can be attributed to Pap smears, as they dramatically decreased the death rate from cervical cancer, whereas it's very difficult to argue significant benefit has emerged from mammogram screening.

Expand full comment

The death rate from cervical cancer was already going down prior due to cleaner water and better hygiene and nutrition (as it's caused by a virus that a healthy immune system clears with no problem), then a low accuracy (seriously,using the wrong frikking soap can cause a positive result, its one of the most changeable parts of a woman's body and equating any small anomaly cancer is as absurd as reprogramming your cells to imitate not just a single antigen of a virus but the most toxic one at that) high false positive test took credit for it partway through--like many unnecessary yet somehow blanket applied and sworn-by medical interventions that transform healthy people into permanent patients. Only thing pap smears contribute to is over treatment (which can cause complications and no surprise every woman I know who has trouble keeping her cork in through the pregnancy is a pap fanatic who has "had something done" to her cervix) and more money in the medical industry's pockets.

Forget whether its Norway or Finland, but one of those countries doesn't even offer paps to anyone unless they are over 30, not monogamous, and are HPV positive (which is only about 5% of women), and they haven't suffered high deaths from lack of regular paps. Its just not a prevalent cancer outside of over treatment victims believing they've been saved (much like vaxxed people getting severe covid and congratulating themselves that without their shots it would have been worse) and the number needed to to test to save one life is on the same level as the covid vaxxes.

Moreover, the hatred and violent wishes us pap-refusers get has been similar to that given to those who refused the covid vax,based on the idea that it is not only a life-saving test but crucial to any sort of survival and that to fail to submit to it is "selfish" and telling anyone the little known facts about it is "evil" and we should be silenced because we are "murdering people with misinformation". Also had people gleefully look forward to our horrible and inevitable death from CC (I'm 44, unsmeared, and still waiting for that horrible death that would inevitably happen "in the next year or two" wished on me over a decade ago). I've also been called an irresponsible child and had it suggested that I should be mandated to submit.

The For Women's Eyes Only website and wedeservebetter reddit has had a lot of good information and conversation on that subject outside of the mainstream information most are aware of (the website, I believe, has a lot of citations and links, if I remember correctly--my battle against medical tyranny got a bit sidetracked to a different subject over the last three years). But a lot of them fell for the covid vax, which is a phenomenon I've been noticing over the years--that groups who reject one unnecessary intervention based on the non-industry data against it and the massive industry propaganda and censorship against honest discussion will uncritically believe in another similar unnecessary intervention based on industry data and reject anything contradicting it, despite it being the same profits based industry-funded source they rejected before.

But as far as I've seen, pap smears are on the same level as the covid vax. Unnecessary, damaging, yet automatically believed to be necessary based largely on claims and data from industries that stand to profit--and those who push them have worked hard to prevent any discussion about them outside of "they are 100 safe and effective" through all manner of censorship and propaganda. And its cult is no less zealous or dismissive of bodily autonomy and informed consent as those who worship the vaccines.

I stopped getting paps as well once I hit menopause. I got them every year from age 16 on and never once had an abnormal one and knowing cervical cancer is so slow growing I never saw the point of getting them past a certain age.

Expand full comment

I agree on that too. I've been told "well, if you ever had a lump in your breast you'd change your tune fast!"

My response is "no I wouldn't, because the worst thing I could think if doing to a cancerous tumor is crushing it so it can spread even easier! If I had enough concern about breast cancer to get checked, I'd do thermography only." Which leads to an opportunity to explain what thermography is. Also point out that I'd take no needle biopsy so the cancer can grow back along the needle path, if its establishing a blood supply, its no good, cut it out clean.

Alternate/additional response: "I already had a scare. Had discharge that went bloody, then scaly rash on the areola. Bandaged it up and went about my day without a worry. Within a year the rash went away and the discharge cleared then dried. Only recently found out those were symptoms of acute dcis-- the most common diagnosis of "cancer" obtained by mammogram, which even in acute firm largely clears and only rarely progressed to anything like cancer."

I always get a horrified "but how can you be sure, you could be terminal!"

To which I say "this was ten (now twenty) years ago, if that was cancer I'd already be dead. But had I gone the hysterical hypochondriac route,I'd have been poisoned and mutilated in my early twenties and spent the last twenty years as a permanent chronic patient. So im.pretty confident I made the right decision."

I learned at an early age that anyone who tries to instill hysterical uncritical terror in you is usually doing so because if you dud your own research or even spent five minutes thinking calmly about it you'd realize they are full of it. So the more you try to scare me,the more inclined I become to not take your word (or your sources) for anything.

Totally agree.

Now step this back 20, 50, 100 years...and lets ask ourselves a question. Did this activity only begin in 2020?

Highly unlikely. How many decades of Rockefellerian allopathic medicine has been largely profit and control based?

What % would you assign?

My guess...we have been suckered and experimented on in a Mengele fashion...by often totally unwitting doctors...for generations.

Medicine has for years now been a holy sacred cow in our culture...hence we have all been fitted with cultural blinders. Very few have penetrated the lie...and those that do have all been maliciously attacked...for decades.

Today is merely the culmination of years of groundwork being laid...not some bizzare aparition in time.

Hence the masses eagerly follow whatever edict is delivered. The more ridiculous and demonstrably false...the more likely it will be worshipped. We are fully engaged in an inverse world...and nothing will deter the devotees of their reward.

The excellent book resource: Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Phyllis Balch, has been my (what's up with me??) bible for many years, and kept me out of trouble and Dr's offices, more times than I can count! Raised in a medical family, I know better. All medical personel, however well meaning, have feet of clay. Know Thyself!!

I left this comment somewhere else but I want to share it with you as well:

One thing I wanna mention is that I have known numerous famous and very talented naturopathic doctors who developed a medical condition that was relatively easy to treat with conventional medicine but they chose not to go to the hospital (as they were deathly afraid of them) and the individual died as a result. Although many things on Western medicine are harmful, there are some things that are very useful, so you need to be mindful to not avoid going to the ER if something seems seriously wrong. That said, other than physicals I was required to do, I have only seen a conventional doctor once in the last 20 years. However, at the same time I'm fortunate to have the medical knowledge that allows me to know which things you actually need help for (which is a knowledge base most people don't have), and even with that, a few years ago, I had an issue I was very close to seeing a surgeon for I was able to figure out about 12 hours before is planning on to the ER.

Good common sense. "However, at the same time I'm fortunate to have the medical knowledge that allows me to know which things you actually need help for (which is a knowledge base most people don't have)." I think a great future post would be how us non-medical people can gain a knowledge base of when and how to use the medical industrial complex.

That is one of my goals, but it is an immensely complicated topic to break down so I am not sure if I I am going to be able to do it. It's really important to me to feel good about what I'm writing on here, and with some topics I feel relatively confident I can convey them in such a way that they will not provide harmful information or information that can be interpreted incorrectly (and hence result in harm to the reader) where is there are other topics I do not feel as confident I will be able to do that for… And essentially since I can't ever have the time to write about everything I want to cover, I am avoiding the topics that I feel I may have difficulty presenting correctly because I do not want to harm anyone.

Napoleon - That knowledge used to be known as Dr. Google. Sadly, we now know that has gone to the dark side as well - very little truth found there.

This.

Though I still use the internet to decide if something needs medical attention, I just try to look over multiple sources. A number of times an injury or other problem.wasn't actually serious enough and didn't need medical help, but looked scary enough that without that guidance I would have wasted my time and money.

Of course I haven't needed it fir that since before the mass censorship effort.

But even pre-covid I got a ton of crap for using Dr Google from medical cultists.

For my own part, I choose to avoid any and all contact with the medical establishment, and if that ever results in a death by something that could have been treated by a regular doctor, I have no regrets and would not appreciate being used as some object lesson as to why it's "necessary" to go to a doctor. Because I made an informed decision and chose quality over quantity of life, and everyone is going to die no matte what, so if I live a shorter life based on my own values and principles there is no shame or failure in that nor am I wrong for living and dying on my own terms.

Despite never going to a doctor, often for issues others insist I "need medical attention" for, I am 44 and able bodied and everyone I know who started to go to doctors regularly and additionally for any and all symptoms has a ton of issues since getting on that merry go round and need my help a lot--yes, its a one way thing, I help me and I help them. Marinating in pharma products with a myriad of side effects they also medicate for. Yet one of them seriously told me that I have the right to avoid doctors, pharma, statins, etc but should be left to suffer and die without help should I become ill or disabled because I selfishly chose to burden others rather than submit to the medicos. I asked him if the same applies to those who get ill or disabled due to their uncritical submission to doctors since they "chose" that. Never got an answer.

Is it time to say "I told you so" or is it still too soon?

Everyone. Absolutely everyone tried to convince me to take the jab and when I protested, they ridiculed me.

They told me I was arrogant for thinking I knew better than 99% of the experts. They told me I was probably just damaged from trauma I experienced in the army (PTSD)

The irony is, within my circles (non medical mostly construction/trades) I am easily the most medically experienced. I am also the health and safety specialist. And a former specialist medic in military CBRN response (pretty relevant). I have formal emergency management training and coordinated incident response.

I explained what I thought honestly. I went back to make sure my understanding of virology (eg how quick they can mutate) and immunology (IgA vs IgG antibodies) was right because my training in these fields was both relatively short and also roughly 10 years ago and so getting a bit hazy.

When it turned out it was still roughly right (science changes and evolves too) I saw no obvious logic for the vaccine passports. I told everyone this. I explained everything.

Did they listen?

Will they now?

What I still cannot understand is that many of the doctors I talked to about this at the start did not grasp the IgA versus IgG issue, or the selective pressure that would be placed upon the viruses to mutate.

I’ve seen a couple of “wake-up” stories, which is encouraging. My daughter works at a small law firm in Dallas. Out of the 20 people who work there, she was one of two who did not take the vaccine. The head of the firm asked her why not, and she respectfully told him that 1) she didn’t trust it, and 2) she didn’t need it. She’s an extremely healthy 50 year old who cycles 15 miles a day and often 50 or more on weekends.

In the ensuing year, every one of the vaxxed employees caught covid, her boss had it twice - post vax. Thankfully, he went to a doctor who gave him not only safe medicine, but good advice. He told him to read Dr. Peter McCullough’s book. He did, and it made a convert of him. The last I heard, he had purchased and given away 25 of those books. He’s like a covid/vaccine truth evangelist. And of course he now congratulates my daughter on having the foresight to not take the vaccine.

The thing is ...

You can lash the CovIDIOTS with the clip from the Pfizer directing admitting they did not test for transmission.

But the CovIDIOTS already know it doesn't stop transmission - most of them have had covid after their injections at least once.

The PR Team was on this early --- they actually admitted that the injections were not purposed to stop transmission - don't be a silly goose --- they were purposed to STOP severe illness and death!

Yes of course a few folks are dying from Covid ... but hey -- it's not 100% effective is it! And some folks are getting injured ... but the injections have saved many millions of lives (or is it billions?)... so this is the price we pay for salvation.

You have about as much of a chance of beating the PR Team at their game --- as you do beating the world chess champ in a match. Zero.

Anything think Russia could not smash backwards Ukraine in a few weeks --- or better still --- shut off their energy supplies? But they don't - cuz then there would be no excuse for the exploding inflation.

I have read the review and am aware of the theory of abiotic oil.

I do not buy into it -- I will consider reading the book though if someone can answer the 3 questions above.

One further question - can anyone point me to an annual report from an oil major that indicates their prospects are looking good because their oil fields are refilling at a faster rate than expected.

This is probably the best paper I have read on the energy situation. Tim Morgan was head of research at a global energy trading firm. He identified increasing oil production costs as the reason for the GFC.

He was instrumental in helping me understand why the banks nearly crashed the world by offering money to people they knew would not pay them back (Liar Loans of course)...

SEE PAGE 59 - THE PERFECT STORM : The economy is a surplus energy equation, not a monetary one, and growth in output (and in the global population) since the Industrial Revolution has resulted from the harnessing of ever-greater quantities of energy. But the critical relationship between energy production and the energy cost of extraction is now deteriorating so rapidly that the economy as we have known it for more than two centuries is beginning to unravel

One other thing to keep in mind... is that the PTB will go to extreme lengths to convince the masses that we will never run into a bottleneck.

For instance, they will inform us that a breakthrough with anything from fusion to ice crystals is right around the corner https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20181119-why-flammable-ice-could-be-the-future-of-energy

They have thrown billions at trying to convince us that we will transition from fossil fuels to solar/wind. That is impossible (see below).

They tell us we will all be driving EVs in 10 years... that is both impossible and ignores the fact that most electricity is fossil fuel generated.

I suspect the abiotic story is just another of these con jobs.

They will (and should) do absolute everything to convince us oil is not a problem -- just think of how unsettling it would be to be made aware that we are on the precipice...

Replacement of oil by alternative sources

While oil has many other important uses (lubrication, plastics, roadways, roofing) this section considers only its use as an energy source. The CMO is a powerful means of understanding the difficulty of replacing oil energy by other sources. SRI International chemist Ripudaman Malhotra, working with Crane and colleague Ed Kinderman, used it to describe the looming energy crisis in sobering terms.[13] Malhotra illustrates the problem of producing one CMO energy that we currently derive from oil each year from five different alternative sources. Installing capacity to produce 1 CMO per year requires long and significant development.

Allowing fifty years to develop the requisite capacity, 1 CMO of energy per year could be produced by any one of these developments:

4 Three Gorges Dams,[14] developed each year for 50 years, or

52 nuclear power plants,[15] developed each year for 50 years, or

104 coal-fired power plants,[16] developed each year for 50 years, or

32,850 wind turbines,[17][18] developed each year for 50 years, or

91,250,000 rooftop solar photovoltaic panels[19] developed each year for 50 years

The world consumes approximately 3 CMO annually from all sources. The table [10] shows the small contribution from alternative energies in 2006.

“To provide most of our power through renewables would take hundreds of times the amount of rare earth metals that we are mining today,” according to Thomas Graedel at the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. So renewable energy resources like windmills and solar PV can not ever replace fossil fuels, there’s not enough of many essential minerals to scale this technology up. http://energyskeptic.com/2014/high-tech-cannot-last-rare-earth-metals/

Renewable energy 'simply won't work': Top Google engineers

Two highly qualified Google engineers who have spent years studying and trying to improve renewable energy technology have stated quite bluntly that whatever the future holds, it is not a renewables-powered civilisation: such a thing is impossible.

Both men are Stanford PhDs, Ross Koningstein having trained in aerospace engineering and David Fork in applied physics. These aren't guys who fiddle about with websites or data analytics or "technology" of that sort: they are real engineers who understand difficult maths and physics, and top-bracket even among that distinguished company.

Even if one were to electrify all of transport, industry, heating and so on, so much renewable generation and balancing/storage equipment would be needed to power it that astronomical new requirements for steel, concrete, copper, glass, carbon fibre, neodymium, shipping and haulage etc etc would appear.

All these things are made using mammoth amounts of energy: far from achieving massive energy savings, which most plans for a renewables future rely on implicitly, we would wind up needing far more energy, which would mean even more vast renewables farms – and even more materials and energy to make and maintain them and so on. The scale of the building would be like nothing ever attempted by the human race.

In reality, well before any such stage was reached, energy would become horrifyingly expensive – which means that everything would become horrifyingly expensive (even the present well-under-one-per-cent renewables level in the UK has pushed up utility bills very considerably).

I don’t know how old you are Eddy, but I’ve seen this play before. I was a young guy during the stagflation 70’s compounded by the Arab Oil Embargo. In some parts of the USA on odd numbered days you needed an odd numbered licence plate to even buy gas, and vice versa. Speed limits nationwide were lowered from 60 to 55 mph and unemployment was widespread. That situation continued until Paul Volcker raised interest rates and broke the financial bubble that was the underlying cause. Mortgage rates peaked in 1981 at 21%! Who the hell could afford a starter home at those rates? Marriage and kids? Out of the question.

Here’s how my friends and I, just out of high school in Ottawa, coped with that situation. My brother moved to Switzerland to work as a pattern maker. My BF Mike went to work as a cook on the DEW line in the high Arctic. My other friend Mike moved to Germany to sell software. I went to sea working on oil tankers in the North Atlantic. We all had to scrimp, make compromises and put up with less than we were accustomed to as kids growing up in the prosperous 60’s, but we all made it through, and we all benefited from the experience in one way or another.

The difference between now and then is simple. Back then you only had newspapers and TV and most people were too busy making ends meet to read or watch them anyway. Now we have the internet 24/7 amplifying every little event into a major crisis, while people check their phones every 30 seconds to see how many liked the latest picture of their cat. It’s completely neurotic behaviour and will end very badly, but it won’t change the outcome as far as the material underpinnings of civilization are concerned. Some will suffer, of that there’s no doubt, but they brought it on themselves. They believed the lying bastards that created this artificial crisis they call the “great reset” but not everyone drank the Koolaid. Serious people are right now working on solutions and are making serious progress. It’s our misfortune that we’re not among them, but then why should they care about us? What have we ever done for them?

HG Wells said: “Civilization is in a race between education and catastrophe. Let us learn the truth and spread it as far and wide as our circumstances allow. For the truth is the greatest weapon we have.”

To (partly) answer that question, look at large scale mining operations. Ore deposits are not uniform. They consist of rich and poor regions. Typically these are blended to extend the life of the mine, and to standardize the extraction process which depends on a uniform grade.

IMO, the shale industry is a giant scam. Depletion rates are too high to justify long term investment. They are basically stock operations along the same lines as junior mining ventures.

Shale binge has spoiled US reserves, top investor warns Financial Times.

Preface. Conventional crude oil production may have already peaked in 2008 at 69.5 million barrels per day (mb/d) according to Europe’s International Energy Agency (IEA 2018 p45). The U.S. Energy Information Agency shows global peak crude oil production at a later date in 2018 at 82.9 mb/d (EIA 2020) because they included tight oil, oil sands, and deep-sea oil. Though it will take several years of lower oil production to be sure the peak occurred. Regardless, world production has been on a plateau since 2005.

What’s saved the world from oil decline was unconventional tight “fracked” oil, which accounted for 63% of total U.S. crude oil production in 2019 and 83% of global oil growth from 2009 to 2019. So it’s a big deal if we’ve reached the peak of fracked oil, because that is also the peak of both conventional and unconventional oil and the decline of all oil in the future.

I think one of the biggest tells that we're at peak, or soon will be, is Russian arctic navigation. Russia has over 30 icebreakers, 4 of them nuclear powered. Canada has 8, the US has only 4. In addition, as of 2019 they have a floating nuclear power station that can be towed, and are planning to build several more.

You don't build floating power stations if your only goal is to open an arctic shipping channel. They're looking for oil, and they'll find it. Next they'll develop submersible drilling rigs if they haven't already, plus the experience they gain is also applicable to the Antarctic.

Say what you like about Russia (and China) but at least they plan for the future. I don't see us doing that at all anymore.

[Keep in mind the following is mostly opinion, not necessarily "fact." ]

I agree with some of what you've said, but I think you're dead wrong on a few points.

The world is NOT running out of energy -- fossil fuels or fission. There is enough for many centuries. Virtually all the current and past "shortages" can be laid at the feet of war or other government action. Just as with the "climate emergency," if you've been around for a while, you will note there have been many claims that we were running out of oil (1970s) and the world was going to freeze. No wait, was going to overheat. No wait... My point, if you cannot figure it out, is that many popular perceptions are fanned by the media for dubious ends, and in any case, there is often very little truth behind the panicked claims.

The Ukraine - Russia war is more complex and you're very right -- the media is not giving us the truth. In my opinion, and it won't be a popular one, USA/NATO/Neocons are mostly to blame for the war. Just look at the curious events in 2014 in Ukraine. The USA has a long history of meddling in foreign nations with odd goals if they can be deduced at all.

You're on the right track (e.g. you cannot trust the media). But I think you're also wrong that you seem to imply that Russia wants exploding prices. I surely will agree that EU is facing critical energy shortages. But not because of lack of resources; it's completely due to Western sanctions and most recently, acts of war like sabotaging the pipelines and the bridge. The US (or more precisely, the power groups that rule the US, the EU etc.) have their own agenda, and the welfare of Europe is not high on their list of priorities.

Expand full comment

I think we are far from running out of oil. We keep finding new deposits, even in the Mediterranean. But by far the Arctic holds huge reserves awaiting development. The Russians have been keen to develop them but without the technology and experience it will take a long time. It's true that the easiest oil has declined. Fracked wells generally have a useful period of a year or two before they slow badly. But we are finding they can return to production after a few years. Well costs for fracked oil have declined as skill has improved so they are worthwhile short term. The deep water sources involve much more capital but produce longer.

The market is manipulated by producers to ensure sustained profits but those controls try for a reasonable price. The appearance of US oil changed the marketplace considerably so keeping them off-line has been the goal of major producers. Some of the green efforts are sponsored by those interests.

The logic of using valuable resources for power generation is short term given easy exploitation of nuclear. The French clearly have constructed a viable system based on nuclear, surprised not widely adopted. May the NIH factor is too high. Nuclear plants can have a near indefinite operating lifetime, built correctly. All it takes is national will.

In a lot of industries, the goal is always to create scarcity in life essential resources so that they can be leveraged in order to control the population.

Expand full comment

Control of the population implies some sort of central planning. I see an effort to ensure profitable production. Some central planning has been attached to ESG which has reduced investment in oil claiming a dying industry is risky capital. I think that view premature but my thoughts hardly matter to Blackrock.

I do see some kickbacks arriving for the green zealots arriving because they have caused serious damage in pushing unrealistic policy on the world. Even Blackrock is paying attention now.

As a rule I avoid this topic because it tends to get heated, but here's my 2 kopeks worth anyway:

The biotic vs abiotic debate may be a false dichotomy. Both may be true. Near surface biotic, deep underground abiotic.

Coal can be converted to diesel via the Fisher-Tropsch process.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer%E2%80%93Tropsch_process

The energy required can be provided by thorium reactors, with the fuel possibly coming from the coal itself. Thorium is present in coal, which is one of the reasons burning it is a bad idea. This can provide a source of transportation fuel (ships, aircraft, locomotives, heavy trucks) separate from other uses, thus preserving existing reserves and helping to balance markets.

Notice how Russia and the USA are both major oil producers. Something they also have in common is underground nuclear testing. The argument is made that we have to periodically test nuclear weapons to assure their effectiveness. I believe that is cover for the actual use of these tests, which is identifying hydrocarbon deposits, and/or fracturing the rock in which they're located. Outgassing from underground nuclear tests can be seen via satellite, and ground instruments can do seismic mapping, thus shorting exploration times.

That's about all I have to add. I worked in the industry for 8 years and could share some real horror stories, but this isn't really the place for that:)

I worked on coastal tankers as an oiler, basically an apprentice engineer. That was in the mid-70's, when the marine environment first appeared on the radar. Ships operating in the Great Lakes were required to clear the engine bilge to the waste tank. That didn't always happen, especially at night. Often it just went over the side. I refused to do it myself, but the engineer on my watch sometimes would. It IS a safety issue in heavy seas, especially on smaller vessels. Too much water sloshing about causes you to heel, especially when light. Still, it's not the North Atlantic (been there). The Lakes are almost always calm, and you get plenty of warning if they're not. No excuse for it. Just too lazy to pump it ashore. Other things, like heavy drinking, as you'd expect. One of my engineers was a terminal drunk a few months from retirement. He never came down on watch. The 3rd was covering for him and he'd sign his name in the log while he was passed out in his bunk. So, for about three months that ship was running 1/3 of the time with a 19 yo kid alone in the engine room who had no idea what he was doing...lol. It's funny now, but it could have been a disaster. Speaking of disasters, had a few of those. Fortunately no one killed, but some pretty close calls. Ship collided a couple of times. Once with the Canso causeway when heavy wind blew us sideways, so not our fault, another in port where we rear-ended a Greek tanker coming in too fast. That one was definitely on us. Lots of other stuff - I could write a book actually.

After that I drove tanker trucks for 8 years, and those are some really scary stories. The industry has improved greatly since then (80s) but only because it was getting too dangerous and had to be done. I went back for a short time, post the improvements. Definitely safer now than when I was doing it. Some thing do actually get better:)

I have been thinking a lot about their breach of fiduciary duty and the legal options that could open up for their prosecution as individuals.

[T]he acting of one person for another; the having and the exercising of influence over one person by another; the reposing of confidence by one person in another; the dominance of one person by another; the inequality of the parties; and the dependence of one person upon another. In addition, courts have considered weakness of age, mental strength, business intelligence, knowledge of the facts involved or other conditions giving to one an advantage over the other.

Whenever one party places trust and confidence in a second person with that second person’s knowledge, it is possible that a fiduciary relationship is created."

A lot of people have thought the only way that you can fax the iatrogenic epidemic on the tendency of doctors in the gaslight patients with medical injuries is to directly go after them for prescribing the medication's and not adequately informing the patients of the risks and benefits.

I was thinking more of using it to make a case against the FDA and CDC, etc... I'm not interested in scapegoating.

However, you raise an interesting point. I've also been thinking that what we really need right now is "Truth and Reconciliation" hearings. Maybe, "breach of fiduciary duty" could be the basis.

A place where low-level perpetrators can confess their wrongdoings in front of someone who has been victimized by similar (or same) wrongdoings. A place where they can admit their mistakes for the record and submit evidence against their "superiors." A place where a "suitable punishment" in community service is agreed upon so that the perpetrator can pay their debt to society and rejoin the community with their heads up and integrity restored.

This would allow for healing in our society and provide testimony and evidence suitable for use in 'official' court cases, in theory. I don't know how it could work exactly, just feeling it out in my mind.

Thanks for your input.

I agree. ... Good people participated in things they wouldn't have because they were misled and/or succumbed to behavioral management techniques they had no reason to suspect.

They still did bad things and I imagine it is weighing heavily on a lot of hearts right now. I want the good people who did bad things to have a way out. Good people can admit their mistakes, atone, and be welcomed back into the good people fold.

Bad people can't admit their mistakes and are unwilling to pay the price voluntarily... Kinda separates the wheat from the chaff right off the bat.

Terrific piece. One aspect of vaccine messaging from 2021 was the notion that people of refused Covid vaccines were 1) selfish, and 2) had a “death wish.”

President Biden’s famous quote about “a winter of death” comes to mind here.

The “death wish” messaging becomes especially curious at this juncture, when a fair weight of evidence on the side of harm from mRNA vaccines has accumulated. And yet the notion that continued enthusiasm for re-boosting might constitute a “death wish” has not seriously been proposed.

Was I still in America?!? Most people did as nyc has the most draconian vax mandates in the country. Eventually mandates came for me, but I had planned for it—sold my biz of 20 years and moved. I’m still hung up on the mandates how many New Yorkers wanted them and approved of them or had no clue why they were wrong. I tried to explain thru a website—the city of “liberals” has become a city of illiberal conformists and it is an awful shame, one of the toughest don’t take no shit cities…accepting this….I went on here but wanted to underscore how scary it was hearing “leaders” talk to citizens like this.

I need to update this to include the hypothesis that they needed to inject billions in order to create a highly contagious mutation -- then they took that to the lab -- tweaked it -- and created Devil Covid -- 80% death rate.

Most people (vaxxed and unvaxxed) die from Devil Covid -- everyone left alive is locked down .. (willingly!) -- told the food trucks will come (they won't) -- and we starve to death.

And the most dangerous species on the planet -- goes out with barely a whimper... cowering at home under a heap of blankets -- watching CNN flash horror stories to ensure nobody ventures out ... while they slowly starve.

No murder - no rape --- no cannibalism... (who wants to eat another human - they might be infected!!!).

The vast majority of the herd are both stupid and trusting of the MSM and gov't so as expected they did as they were told - and continue to do so. Even know as they they get a whiff of the vax injuries they are told that they are rare and that the injections have 'saved millions'. Too bad for the suckers who have wrecked bodies -- we have to sacrifice some folks to save civilization.

The thing is...

I had just left Hong Kong when this story hit https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jan/31/a-man-lies-dead-in-the-street-the-image-that-captures-the-wuhan-coronavirus-crisis

I remember thinking ... if this man was suffering from a severe respiratory illness ... what was he doing wandering the streets in that condition? Was he shopping? Going for a bowl of noodles? Why was he not home in bed... Something was not right.

This was all going as Chinese New Year arrived -- a time when hundreds of millions of Chinese are on the move heading to their villages to celebrate --- I recall reading that millions of residents of Wuhan left (there was not lockdown) and thinking ... this disease was going to rip through the country very quickly. My concern was that the supply chain would rupture.

But nothing happened. Only Wuhan was affected. I have contacts in Shanghai and they confirmed ... nothing out of the ordinary.

I ain't no pandemic expert but this made no sense ... respiratory diseases don't respect city gates... or borders. Flights were still leaving Wuhan for places like Ethiopia (African hub for Chinese workers flowing into China) ... and Bali... the MSM was warning against this... but nothing happened.

It was very obvious to me that this was a psyop... it was a lie..

And not long after Operation Warp Speed was announced... hmmm... I did a bit of research into why we have never been able to make a vaccine against a coronavirus and came up with this https://www.wired.com/2003/05/feds-race-to-make-sars-vaccine/

I immediately knew something diabolical was going down... I shared that with a number of people as the vax launch was imminent -- they dismissed it - two of them have severe heart damage as their penance for rejecting my warnings.

The strategies I have used to deal with those who urged (and sometimes insulted) me to get the injection involved:

1. Asking them if they have seen any long term studies on the side effects... specifically I want to know what might happen in 2+ years. Obviously those did not exist (amusingly ... they will soon... and they won't be promising).

2. Citing the average age of a Covid death being 80+ with 3+ co-morbidities... as I'd put it -- we all know it's old people in terrible shape that are dying ... I don't need no vaccine.

These tactics generally stopped the CovIDIOTS from harassing me -- but they did not stop any of them from shooting the endless boosters.

Like I said - they are stupid (and trusting).

Those dropping-dead-in-the-street videos were apparently fake. One was a passed out drunk, another was a victim of a motorcycle accident, at least that's what I read, although I can't confirm. It comports with what I know about China though, where helping strangers in distress is not part of the culture, and people will just step over you if you're lying dead or injured. I read a story years ago, I think in the Bangkok Post, where a young girl drowned in a swimming pool filled with other swimmers, none of who came to her rescue. Not trashing China here. I visited in the late 80's and have several Chinese friends. They're fine people on an individual level, but completely different in large numbers. Not unique to China of course, but given their large population it does tend to stand out.

Mainland China is the land of 1.3 billion zombies. That is the product of intensive indoctrination by the CCP since 1989.

I am not suggesting the vast majority of the population of other countries are not zombies as well ... it's just that the condition is more severe in China.

I believe Nietzsche used the term barnyard animals.

That's an insult to barnyard animals -- I prefer zombies --- it's also much more difficult to farm zombies (they are quite dangerous - particularly when they form mobs) so more sophisticated methods of control are required.

You do not require a Ministry of Truth to farm barnyard animals....

The funny thing is ... when I spoke to mainland Chinese both in China and outside of the country --- asking them if they supported the HK people during the protests of 2019 -- they were generally supportive of the crack down on the pro democracy movement.

They were dismissive of the HK movement and believed it should be crushed.

Keep in mind the reason for the protests was that the CCP was violating the Basic Law which guaranteed the people of HK a range of rights up until 2047.

But that did not matter to these fools - the HKers needed to be smashed.

I have not been back to HK since 2019 but I maintain our head office there and have extensive contacts in the city. I am told that the city has drastically changed since 2019 -- there is a feeling of oppressiveness -- of a crushed spirit.

It is for all intents and purposes just another shit city in China -- the people are like beaten dogs.

And I believe that most of the mainlanders are pleased with this.

Of course they are intensively brainwashed - it is not possible to view any foreign news sites -- forget out youtube ... they are in an extreme bubble fed propaganda by the CCP.

If people thing the MSM is worse than useless in the rest of the world... China is that on steroids.

That's part of the brainwashing :) Same thing goes on in most countries - the main difference is the CCP leadership consists of outright gangsters... (we have much more polished gangsters in the west who for the most part follow rule of law in terms of business practices... because they are smart enough to understand that is a good business practice)

One of my senior managers departed HK with her family for the UK a couple of months ago citing disgust with what was being taught to her two kids in primary school.

A couple of anecdotal experiences with that:

1. We bought the websites of a media company that had operations in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou... the founder was a European. As a media company he needed a local partner - a CCP member -- some years into the business they were hitting serious stride with their print editions -- the CCP member decided to take the company from him - they locked him out of the offices -- zero compensation. No recourse -- which would in any event be a bad idea because that can backfire and they invent some bs to pin on you. The urls of the sites were held outside of China (in a country where rule of law generally applies) so we could buy and operate the sites.

2. We had a business manufacturing and distributing air purifiers in China. As that started to hit stride 'accounting anomalies' suddenly surfaced. We understand these were linked to a China-owned competitor. Our operational partner, a westerner, decided the best way forward was to sell... which we did. He left China soon after and said it was getting very oppressive (he'd lived their 10 yrs..)

You're not too far off. Nietzsche writes extensively, in several of his books, about "the herd." usually it's tied in with master and slave moralities, the latter is created by the weak of a society to protect against the strong (the powerful, the rulers, the nobles). He'd frequently criticize the Europe and especially Germany of his day (late 1800s) as having been bred into domesticated men, the herd-like citizens of democracy.

Curiously, he'd probably argue that it is The Herd (the "slaves"), NOT the masters/nobles, who are engaging in the attempt at mind control. The Herd is all about conformity and thus being a maverick would be discouraged. In contrast, the Master/Noble is the hero of ancient Greece or barbarian Viking or Teutonic times, the "blond beast of prey," who lived by his own code and, supposedly, enjoyed great freedoms and happiness (I remain skeptical on some of his claims here!) In Nietzsche's world, as I understand it, the Master/Noble is a law unto himself; the slave/commoner/herd too is basically off by themselves.

What astonished me right from the outset was the lack of understanding of basic epidemiology on the part of clinicians. I have no medical background, but I studied viruses and the immune system in the 80's as part of a project on information systems I was working on.

One of the things I learned was that you don't mass vaccinate into a pandemic of a respiratory virus because they mutate too quickly, so you are forever playing catch-up. Worse, by vaccinating on a mass scale you are actually selecting for mutations. It's called 'vaccine escape' and is exactly what has happened with Sars-Cov2. On top of that we had John Ioannidis' meta-study which showed a low IFR (.23) later confirmed by other studies. We knew from that to protect the vulnerable, treat the infected with known antivirals plus new ones identified around the same time, and just let everyone else get on with their lives. So, by summer of 2020 I knew it wasn't about public health, but I couldn't understand why people whose job it was to know what I knew just didn't get it. I'm sure they weren't part of any conspiracy (although I do believe there was one at a higher level) so WTF? Why did they all fold so quickly? It was like a mechanic telling you that you never need to change the oil in your engine. Completely absurd.

That is a great analysis and why they call it drinking the Kool-Aid! All the principles in epidemiology seem to get tossed out of the window when a vaccine can just be thrown at the problem (I view this as a major problem with public health training).

Wonderful, your experience saved you.

When I read immunology textbooks for medical students in Japan, I think it's only rough theories, and when I read the essays of researchers, their real intentions were "I don't know that either," "I don't know this," "Maybe this way." etc. are overflowing. Therefore, since ordinary doctors studied with such textbooks, there are many doctors who are not familiar with anything other than their own specialty.

Lots of family docs went along - they are so booked; they don't have or take the time to brush up on their immunology/epidemiology. My primary told me she hadn't had time. I pulled out and handed her some papers with a sticky note on each one (This paper means that the jabs..."), highlighted test as minimally as possible, and did a quick summary as I handed each one over. Then next time I saw her, she said "They want to kill us all," and told me some scary stories. I have been so worried, her hospital made everyone get the Pfizer jabs in May 2021.

This is a key key point. Everyone assumes doctors read tons of literature, but they don't actually realize how long it takes to do that and how little time they have available to dive into complex subjects.

Granted there was a lot of confusion at the beginning, but one thing that was easy to establish just by reading the safety data was that HCQ is one of the safest drugs we know. HCQ is recommended for travel in malarial regions, and you have to start taking it before you depart. I know this because I took it myself when I travelled to SE Asia. So it wouldn't be unusual for the average MD to prescribe it once in a while, and any MD practising military medicine would also know about it. So sanctioning doctors who prescribed it, along with pharmacists refusing to fill prescriptions, was so out of line with normal procedure that it should have raised red flags all over the place. Never mind if it worked or not, it violated the basic principle of using off-label drugs to treat novel pathogens, provided safety can be established and the patient is informed. That was what tipped me off that this wasn't about public health and I'm not even a doctor!

What I found bizarre was this leap in logic:

- the purpose of a vaccine is to train the body to develop antibodies, so *in case that person contracts the sickness, those antibodies will be available to fight it off.*

Even in medical professionals, that very basic concept somehow got convoluted to:

- Vaccination = prevention of contraction and therefore prevention of transmission

Well, if no contraction is going to occur, what's the use of antibodies?

James - I lived in WA for years and years, and left abruptly when the pandemic was declared.

I feared WA was ground zero. (Kirkland, Bill Gates, etc. etc.) I am now in the Midwest and it is a completely different vibe. But family and longtime friends in WA have apparently not changed their stance or opinions on the so-called virus and the injections. Have lost two healthy family members, yes elderly, but still they had no significant issues until taking multiple shots. There is something very strange (IMO) about how indoctrinated the population at large is in Western WA particularly. Reminds me of Invasion of the Body Snatchers!

Inslee the Gov. has solid ties to Gates. Gov's daughter in law has been on B&M Gates Foundation board for quite a few years. Univ. of WA is highly corporatized, (Boeing, MSFT, Amazon, Alaska Airlines, etc. etc.) and they learned how to do sophisticated & effective marketing to attract $$'s from students as well as big money corporate donations.
