Revoking Dr. Nass's medical license back-fired big time on the establishment. Now that she's not devoting 90 percent of her time to her medical practice, she's devoting 100 percent of her time to slaying the evil agendas of the WHO.
Bill, this line of yours may be THE understatement of the decade: "I’ve even wondered if the Powers that Be might be trying to cultivate a world where one has to meekly submit to authority figures, that some kind of subliminal conditioning exercise might be playing out here." YA THINK?!
I knew this was the case with most important organizations, but I bet few people pick up on this when they watch a football game on TV:
Ref: "Holding, number 73. Ten yards ..."
There goes a touchdown or a first-down play that would set your team up in the Red Zone. Instead of 1st-and-10, you have 3rd-and-25 ... and there went your chance of winning.
But you can't complain. After all, the refs are doing their job to protect the integrity of the game.
It's pretty easy to tell who the NCAA is allowing to win games by the calls. Some teams have to beat the team they are playing, along with the refs. Another reason I quit watching NCAA.
It has been reported that employers like college degrees because it shows the applicant can conform and put up with crap, a desirable trait in non technical businesses.
I always thought the reason for doctors following approved medical protocols was for insurance reasons as insurers would not cover cases where doctors didn't follow protocol. So where are the insurers now that the protocols are causing them huge losses. I had expected they would be the first drivers of changes to the deadly Covid protocols that increased their losses.
I have a master's in educational administration. Granted, it's from decades ago. But there is no doubt that liberal arts schools are not where individualists go to expand their horizons. It's where conformists go to be told what their opinions are.
One day I'm going to write a long story about my own experience as an investigative journalist where I TRIED to expose one school system and its superintendent who force-fed these extreme education school reforms on the students of one community in my state. That story was almost my undoing ... and did get my wife and mother-in-law (teachers in the same school system) fired.
Wow I’m looking forward to this story. I’m guessing you were all on the correct (what used to be known as the “right” side but that would make everyone assume (correctly) that you were a more conservative sort) side of this story and (since you’re still married to your obviously lovely wife) that she agreed with your interpretation of the events. Do tell!
I could really write a book about that surreal experience, but I am going to write about it on Substack because I learned many lessons with this controversial/polarizing local investigation that I see on the Big Stage today.
It's not just the compliance problem, but affirmative action (DEI) as well. On the bright side, covid woke up (in more than one way) a lot of people who were not paying attention. I think it's important now more than ever that we all focus on our personal and family health to avoid dependence on our health care system
when I left Europe 20 years ago, it was still quite different from here in the US. Doctors there are independent, children are vaccinated a few times, but not pincushioned like here. I was appalled when I heard about this, and even more, when I noticed veterarians are the same! My cat there got 1 oral vaccine for rabies that lasts a lifetime. LUckily we found a non-needle- happy vet (and I will go there for this big white monkey if need be!). The school teachers I know here, forgive me for saying, are absolutely not the smartest people I know. If I were to have children I would not stay! It is that bad. The last time I had to comply was at the SS office, no not the waffenSS but close to LOL! I was not allowed to enter without a face diaper. They had a stack. Several of us waiting just put it over our mouth and chin. Nobody said anything and thankfully so. A few women, all black, (forgive me for that too) stared at us wide-eyed, as if afraid we might be contagious with an illness we did not have. Talking about fear-mongering. The few stores that forbid me to enter lost a client and will never see me again. IF we do not comply they will have to change, but to many people are sheeple!
Blacks were among the most resistant to wear masks. Believe it or not, they're fed up with white people telling them wheat's good for them.
There is nothing about the public education system that in any way implies that teachers are especially intelligent. I have the right to say so, I was a public school teacher. Walter Willimas, a famous, now deceased black economist and columnist, was very unkind to teachers. He studied the academic requirements for a teaching degree, and found them to be the most undemanding of any discipline.
here in GA it are mostly black people who still wear masks, and they were among the most persistent to wear them and that you wear them, too. I am not surprised about the low requirements for teacher. I was not yet a citizen when people urged me to get a replacement teacher certificate which obviously takes 2 hours. I have an accent. How can I qualify? I was assured I would, but found it unreal ! I did not go for it
I have noticed African-Americans are far more likely to wear masks. Even at my kids elementary school, I still see a few kids wearing them - and they are all little black kids.
In my opinion, minorities should be more skeptical of government medical and science pronouncements than any other racial group. I think of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study and how much funny stuff goes on in Africa, where Gates et al are constantly rolling out new vaccines on that safe experiment population.
I'm reading another Thomas Sowell book. (I've read others previously.) This one is called "Black Rednecks and White Liberals", and is a book of essays. It was recommended to me by another Substack reader. Sowell is black, and he's old, so he knows much from personal memory, besides being an economist. Sowell is disgusted with the Great Society programs that started in the 1960s. They have destroyed the black family and made a mess of public school education. I'm close to Sowell's age, and was a teacher. I can personally back up much of what he says. Prior to the Great Society, blacks actually had a higher marriage rate, lower unwed mother rate than whites. And they were at an equal rate academically.
As Ronald Reagen once said, the nine most terrifying words are, "We're from the government, and we're here to help."
“The vaccine mandate for medical students is an effort to ensure any doctor capable of independent thinking will not be allowed to practice medicine. It’s an effort to ensure the bureaucrats will control healthcare in the future and that this control will not be challenged by any contrarians or mavericks.”
Exactly. They’ve set up a system of compliance, with the ultimate goal of compliance across society, making entire populations submit to medical interventions, i.e. vaccinations, on captured governments’ demand.
Works across the board - doctors, nurses, pharmacists etc.
This is a disaster because these people have apparently no understanding of their legal and ethical obligation to obtain voluntary informed consent for vaccination.
And now here we are, e.g. with reportedly 70.5 million Covid-19 vaccine doses administered in Australia, across a population of 27 million, and in my opinion with no valid voluntary informed consent for any of those doses.
‘Health’ practitioners have been subject to vaccine mandates themselves for years - they should not submit to mandates! They have violated voluntary informed consent over and over again.
It’s the practitioners themselves who have to be challenged, the ones who actually stick the needles and contents in the arm. They’re performing as obedient soldiers, ‘carrying out orders’, but they must realise it is their actual action, they are responsible.
We have to get this subject on the table, voluntary informed consent. And it’s not just about vaccination… So much is happening without our informed consent.
I totally rebelled when this nonsense started in 2020. Have not given a single vaccine since whereas before I would occasionally give a flu shot or two every year. I tell the higher ups they don’t want me to go into a little room alone with anyone and give my idea of informed consent if they want to sell vaccines.
The silver lining of Covid times is the millions of people who never were "vaccine hesitant" who now are. This will save many people from death or debilitating injuries in the future.
IMOtThe Flu Vaccine was the biggest medical scam of them all until Covid. Most people will still dutifully get this shot every year ... but not as many.
P.S. I now wonder if the satin prescriptions might be an even bigger scam.
A Freudian slip, to be sure! You wrote, "satin prescriptions..." Did you subconsciously mean, "Satan's prescriptions?"
My own dear "resting in peace" mom was fairly confident in taking yearly flu shots, but of her own accord, through experience, decided to desist. She got the "flu" anyway, and so why continue? But she was a tremendously healthy gardener, which should have preserved her life longer. Poor lady, suffered from a WEIRD disorder that caused her (in her 60's through 80's) to suffer from hot flashes and headaches! Something was definitely damaged permanently and I for one point to the flu jabs.
Excellent post, Bill, very important points. It appears that all our cultural and intellectual institutions are being undermined in a very methodical way, casting out the most competent people.
But... While the psy-op may have come from elsewhere, in my experience throughout this covidan fiasco the pressure to comply was extra, extra heavy from my own peers and subordinates.
Speaking of sports coaches, one of my transcripts illustrates this. It's a heart-breaking story, told by the wife a high school sports coach. (A ways in, after telling her own story, she tells his.)
Sarah Chrastina: "When I woke up, it was a Saturday morning"
"So it's just the classic pattern that I then saw everywhere. When you stand up, you are shamed and bullied and censored. And you don't have a voice. Same with the vaccine injured, that we've heard today, right? It's a pattern."
I suppose I do at this point, I have made so many transcripts for the 2021-2023 archive. And I'm still rounding it out. (Don't think I forgot Dr. Harvey Risch; he will definitely be in there, and more than once. And many others need to be in the archive as well.)
I'll tell Harvey in my email posts at The Brownstone Writers' Group!
I'm sure you've been told this, but you could actually publish a great book with the best or most compelling transcripts. You could divide them by topics. Edit them a little, etc.
Thanks, Bill. About a book, I know it would make a great book, but that would involve the boondoggle of permissions (these are not interviews conducted by myself) and having to charge— a whole concatenation of complications. Besides, actually, I am a writer and I have other, unrelated projects I need to return to. So I'm sticking with doing this archive of transcripts for those who may read them online and also, to donate print-outs to institutional archives for future historians.
Certainly an oral history of this period could and should be done—George Plimpton, Studs Terkel-style— and certainly I would expect perhaps several oral histories may be done of this period over the next years and decades— always a possibility as long there are still people alive to interview. (Perhaps you're the one to do it?)
PS I'm working on an index, which will include two shorter lists of selected transcripts, meant to be read through like from beginning to end chronologically, like an oral history.
Thank you, dear Bill. I'll be around for a while yet, since it's going to take the rest of this year and probably well into 2025 to finalize the archive. And even then, I would expect to add a few more transcripts here and there. And, even if I'm winding down my transcripts project, I'll no doubt still be reading your substack. Maybe under another name, though!
GREAT article, Bill, one everyone should read it. I think you're spot on and I'm sure it's spreading to other professions as well. My husband was a high school science teacher for 20 yrs, taught gifted children at a top school in San Francisco. The last 2 yrs of teaching the Vice Principal was harassing him. My husband was always standing up for the kids and for common sense rules, teaching etc. She didn't like it. After he was diagnosed with serious cancer lesion on his skin and surgery, he was home sick recovering. She called, I answered and she was extremely rude to me, trying to bully me. First of all, she shouldn't have been talking to me about it she should have talked to Tom, my husband. She was angry because he wasn't at school. I told her "are you aware my husband was diagnosed with cancer?" she never said "sorry to hear that" instead she said he needs to be here at school or he will lose his job. He had been planning to retire anyway due to all the idiocy in school administration and due to her bullying of him and other teachers who didn't tow the line. I hung up and immediately called adminstrative office and got him retired. I called her back and told her you don't have to worry about him any more, he's retired, he won't be back. (There were 3 more months of school year left). She was absolutely furious. Next morning she called early in a.m. and said Tom needs to be here, he's missing shcool. I told her "what part of HE IS RETIRED do you not understand? Quit harassing us, he's sick and needs to recover and hung up on her. This woman continued to be V.P. for another 19 yrs and finally retired, no doubt with a fat salary. In talking with other teachers we've met, this kind of thing was happening in schools all over in various states. It's sad because he was High School Biology Teacher of the Year in state of California, his students absolutely loved him and he was a great teacher. We're losing our best teachers and doctors because of these incompetent, idiots in charge who want only compliant puppets not people who actually have talent and brains. America used to be known for excellence. btw, same thing is happening in airline industry, they are now saying they want people with disabilities, including INTELLECTUAL disabilities. This is the reason we're seeing so many accidents, doors flying open on landing, etc. and passenger's lives are being endangered. I was a flight attendant many years for a top notch airline back in 1970s/80s/ and was so proud of it and it makes me very sad to see America going downhill like this. I suspect it's happening in other fields as well.
I can relate, E Grogan. The exact same thing happened to my wife when she was teaching at a school led by one of these education reform bullies. My wife was the most popular student in the school (with students) and she was fired .... because the principal (who was also the superintendent) could pick up on the fact my wife wasn't buying the program she was force-feeding students and that town.
Fortunately, my wife was later hired in my hometown (and became "Teacher of the Year" at her high school.) But when she was applying for other jobs, a few people told her a "Do-Not-Hire" message had been circulated among school systems.
There's a reason I highlighted the education field in the essay.
So very sorry to hear that happened to your wife Bill. It's the kind of thing that really hurts - and I'm sure it hurt her students, too. She was loved by them and was a hero to them and then suddenly she's fired - I"m sure they weren't very happy about it. So glad she was hired again and in your hometown - her new school sounds like a good place, especially since she was told the truth about Do Not Hire message. WOW. And I'm not surprised about those messages being circulated.
I could never get a salaried job at a conventional newspaper today. It would take 3-minutes' Internet search to see that my form of journalism does "not comply" with the journalism being produced by an corporate news organizations. It is what it is. Carrie has about five more years to get her 20 years in education. After all she's put up with, she at least needs to get a good pension to show for it!
My dad got journalism degree right after he was done in WW2. He worked in profession for several yrs but had to get out because he wanted to tell the truth to the public. That's why he went into public relations, formed his own firm and took on clients who were the underdogs being lied about in the press. It's amazing he could make a living but he did & he made a good living. That was in 1951 he established his P.R. firm, so journalism has been a quagmire since at least then. I remember my dad still had friends who were reporters and editors often quashed their stories because they "didn't tow the line". It's very sad, Bill, because you're a good writer, you tell the truth that needs to be told and you'd be great at reporting, we need more folks like you in journalism today.
Please tell Carrie for me I have HUGE respect for her for staying in teaching profession - we need all the teachers like Carrie that we can find! Also tell her staying 5 more yrs is worth it for the pension, as medical benefits are terrific and pension is quite good, too. Besides, we need all the good teachers we can find these days, considering what they're teaching kids these days.
Prayers for her hoping she can make it another 5 yrs.
Thank you. I will pass along those words to Carrie. She actually took a new job 30 miles from Troy two years ago in Ozark City Schools. For a year she taught vocational education - teaching students how to be teachers. Recently, she got a new job as a "career coach" so she's no longer in the classroom every day. She kind of moves throughout the different schools and grades and also works with local industry and employers who might employ some of her students. So far, she likes it. I've heard some war stories about what today's classrooms can really be like.
Sounds like she's out of the classroom a lot and away from watchful eyes, hopefully. Thank the Lord there is someone like Carrie to teach a new generation what teaching is really all about and how to be a good teacher!!
1) The spiritual one….I still remember during confirmation class the pastor reminding us that the devil has limited power compared to God. So there is hope…problem being : is there hope in this earthly life.
2) Education situation, teacher for many decades, got my admin. Certification, too. In this area it was often said on a daily basis when dealing with student issues that one chooses their own battles. So it became necessary to determine the most beneficial way to deal with the situation. Maybe not always dealing with the bad behavior, first but rather helping the student choose the path that will change the behavior. Sometimes it was just necessary to provide the guidance for the student to get through another day at school where academics wasn’t of prime importance. City Hall and those toughies who it seems that there is no hope of changing them…Maybe like students one’s approach might be to guide them to another way of operating in life? In spiritual thought that means softening their heart.
As a retired therapist, IMO some folks are able to change and see the light. Others never will - aka sociopaths, psychopaths etc. There do seem to be a lot of folk in those 2 groups these days, just something I've noticed. They seem to gravitate to positions of authority, too, sadly.
Teachers can and do change lives by picking their battles. I know my wife has a profound influence on countless former and current students ... and she's fighting these battles with woke or misguided administrators who just make things harder than they should be.
I believe an unusual virus sickened enough people, particularly the old and compromised, in strategic locations with fairly severe flu-like symptoms.
The concern was blown into full-on panic by the WHO, the healthcare networks they influence, politicians and the mainstream media. Akin to screaming fire! in a crowded theater.
Interestingly few in biological sciences questioned how a famously replication incompetent RNA virus could possibly spread and wreak havoc in the manner we were being told. Those questioning any of the dictates handed down by a select few of experts were dealt with harshly.
PCR testing particularly when amped by over-cycling can detect a single covid molecule swabbed off nasopharyngeal tissue. But it cannot tell you if the symptoms you are experiencing (or not experiencing) are from a Covid infection or something else. Thus PCR is a poor diagnostic tool but was a convenient way to extend the state of emergency long past its expiration date.
Once a patient tested positive for Covid, hospitals through a combination of fear, political pressure, and monetary incentive rejected considering anything else and immediately initiated the Covid protocol which was likely inappropriate for some patients. It is logical influenza, bronchitis and pneumonia did not simply disappear but were overshadowed by Covid obsession. A case of, you don’t find what you don’t look for.
The so called vaccines (which are not vaccines) were rolled out at suspiciously high speed under the premise they would end the pandemic, suggesting a return to pre-2020 normalcy. They were billed as safe and effective. The force via multiple punitive measures utilized in their deployment “Covid won’t end until all are vaccinated” was highly suspect.
As time went on it began leaking that for some their so-called vaccination was not safe at all. For most they were not effective either. Bill Gates (after making major bank) said the vaccines were “a disappointment.” No matter their dismal failure the new propaganda said, ongoing boosters were now necessary. And, you won’t get as sick.
Still, most in the sciences that we are constantly being told to trust did not question how a replication incompetent RNA virus can behave so illogically. Instead we are now supposedly fighting a new monster, variants.
Variants are now at the core of post pandemic hysteria. Kept alive by all members of the Covid Theater Community.
On one side bad actors dangle silly names and fancy alphanumeric monikers. On the other side they insist bad science will unleash a killer variant any…day…now.
Both are lies designed to prevent covid from ever fizzling out. Ever.
Covid is profitable not only for big pharma but also for those alleging to save us from big pharma. Both sides are exploiting us for their own selfish purposes using perpetual fear and alarm.
Want to end covid? Then drive a stake through the heart of VARIANTS. See them as a marketing strategy. Because that is exactly what they are.
The entirety of the Scamdemic has been theatre. Fright Night, designed to soften us up. Weaken our resolve for freedom, sovereignty and independence. Reduced to serfs to be monitored and controlled cradle to grave.
Thanks. Occasionally I can contain my anger. But when I reflect on thousands of unnecessary iatrogenic deaths. People with tears running down their cheeks, told there’s nothing more that can be done, pumped with narcotics and taken off vents gasping their last breaths ALONE.
Or, kindergarteners being scolded for pulling down masks. Empty parks, eerily quiet streets. Suicides, job loss, anger, abuse, alcohol and drug abuse. Fauci suggesting wearing two masks even while at home as I’m certain he was laughing to himself.
The politicians, healthcare professionals, celebrities that openly called for my head for refusing injection. And, more.
When I think about what was done to humanity, men, women, girls, boys, infants, fetuses, it is exceedingly difficult to remain reasoned and non-sensationalist. But thank you for the compliment.
I’ll leave with a last thought. When has it ever been a good idea to ramp up fear and alarm during a healthcare emergency of any sort?
It doesn’t matter if it’s an individual in a MVA or a mass casualty event the first order of business was always to impart a sense of calm. This time was the opposite.
From the WHO on down nobody interjected a sense of, remain calm, we’ve got this.
Nay, this was unusually handled for the purpose of herding. These people and their accomplices are psychopaths that deserve a firing squad.
Good point that normally the first order of business is to counsel everyone to remain calm and NOT panic.
At least that's the counsel in a real crisis that might happen in our town. With the alleged geopolitical crises, panic and over-reaction are par for the course. It seems like more citizens would have figured this out by now. Divide the crisis or threat not by 2, but by at least 9.
It starts in Kindergarten and never lets up. Character word of the month is "respect." Always respect your elders and rules and policies and help those in charge force others to follow them always.
The problem is all levels of government are too big and have too much power. If half dozen states would remove the choke hold the big pharma mafia has on doctors via licensing and let the free market work the issues out, the problem vanishes. But the laws are bought to limit choices, of referees, of doctors and of politicians.
The only solution is to escape gov't influence or at least control in the critical areas of life. Not going to be easy.
It is great you bring up the constant calls for “respect.” This is one of the little insidious words they’ve infected with subtle double meaning. This one was best explained by this brilliant 2015 post:
—
Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
Excellent, and other than the irrelevant sports digression (Don't give the sports leagues or their advertisers even a dime! It's just a time, attention, and mental energy waster.), much more succinct than "A Midwestern Doctor" would have written it. Thank you for allowing comments.
I like my digression into the Sports world. I can't tell you how much those ego-tripping, power-hungry, narrative-supporting sports commissioners get under my skin. But thanks for the nice words!
Another option for those rogue doctors is counterfeit vaccine certificates. If found out they'll be fired, of course, but the alternative is to not be a doctor anyway, so nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Thank you. I wrote a first draft yesterday and didn't like it. I woke up this morning and did some serious polishing ... and decided to go ahead and hit the "send" button. It seems to have resonated with many readers. I do think just about every big organization wants people who will comply and no employees who are likely to push back on The Current Thing.
My "eureka!" moment was the realization that such employees are screened by various means early on.
Legal immigrants: The CDC / USA still requires a mRNA Covid Vacc as a precondition to get a green card. As a result me and my family cannot unite as I am not vaccinated. Anyone there who is equally affected?
Revoking Dr. Nass's medical license back-fired big time on the establishment. Now that she's not devoting 90 percent of her time to her medical practice, she's devoting 100 percent of her time to slaying the evil agendas of the WHO.
I absolutely love it!!! Hurray for Dr. Nass!!
She deserves one of those "Profile in Courage" Awards. But she'll never get one.
Just as bad, if not worse, was being forced to undergo a mental health evaluation. Yet this is seldom mentioned.
Excellent point, Bill.
Bill, this line of yours may be THE understatement of the decade: "I’ve even wondered if the Powers that Be might be trying to cultivate a world where one has to meekly submit to authority figures, that some kind of subliminal conditioning exercise might be playing out here." YA THINK?!
I knew this was the case with most important organizations, but I bet few people pick up on this when they watch a football game on TV:

But you can't complain. After all, the refs are doing their job to protect the integrity of the game.
It's pretty easy to tell who the NCAA is allowing to win games by the calls. Some teams have to beat the team they are playing, along with the refs. Another reason I quit watching NCAA.
A couple of thoughts on your essay today:
It has been reported that employers like college degrees because it shows the applicant can conform and put up with crap, a desirable trait in non technical businesses.
I always thought the reason for doctors following approved medical protocols was for insurance reasons as insurers would not cover cases where doctors didn't follow protocol. So where are the insurers now that the protocols are causing them huge losses. I had expected they would be the first drivers of changes to the deadly Covid protocols that increased their losses.

Do tell!
I could really write a book about that surreal experience, but I am going to write about it on Substack because I learned many lessons with this controversial/polarizing local investigation that I see on the Big Stage today.
they are complying too I guess. Obviously they have little to do, as they keep calling you to have a talk
Thanks, Bill.
It's not just the compliance problem, but affirmative action (DEI) as well. On the bright side, covid woke up (in more than one way) a lot of people who were not paying attention. I think it's important now more than ever that we all focus on our personal and family health to avoid dependence on our health care system

I was appalled when I heard about this, and even more, when I noticed veterarians are the same! My cat there got 1 oral vaccine for rabies that lasts a lifetime. LUckily we found a non-needle- happy vet (and I will go there for this big white monkey if need be!). The school teachers I know here, forgive me for saying, are absolutely not the smartest people I know. If I were to have children I would not stay! It is that bad. The last time I had to comply was at the SS office, no not the waffenSS but close to LOL! I was not allowed to enter without a face diaper. They had a stack. Several of us waiting just put it over our mouth and chin. Nobody said anything and thankfully so. A few women, all black, (forgive me for that too) stared at us wide-eyed, as if afraid we might be contagious with an illness we did not have. Talking about fear-mongering. The few stores that forbid me to enter lost a client and will never see me again. IF we do not comply they will have to change, but to many people are sheeple!
A couple of things that relate:

The masks on colored folk (and a lot of confetti colored) are the merit badges of good Dems
It’s a merit badge for good Dem’s
Sadly it's a win-win, for them.
Part of the revealed game plan (Event 201) was to protect corporate businesses (Walmart, CostCo) and let the independent businesses wither.
Even the fully-compliant small businesses are failing in large numbers, and we enjoy reduced choice and more time in the big boxes.
“The vaccine mandate for medical students is an effort to ensure any doctor capable of independent thinking will not be allowed to practice medicine. It’s an effort to ensure the bureaucrats will control healthcare in the future and that this control will not be challenged by any contrarians or mavericks.”
Exactly. They’ve set up a system of compliance, with the ultimate goal of compliance across society, making entire populations submit to medical interventions, i.e. vaccinations, on captured governments’ demand.
Works across the board - doctors, nurses, pharmacists etc.
This is a disaster because these people have apparently no understanding of their legal and ethical obligation to obtain voluntary informed consent for vaccination.
And now here we are, e.g. with reportedly 70.5 million Covid-19 vaccine doses administered in Australia, across a population of 27 million, and in my opinion with no valid voluntary informed consent for any of those doses.
‘Health’ practitioners have been subject to vaccine mandates themselves for years - they should not submit to mandates! They have violated voluntary informed consent over and over again.
It’s the practitioners themselves who have to be challenged, the ones who actually stick the needles and contents in the arm. They’re performing as obedient soldiers, ‘carrying out orders’, but they must realise it is their actual action, they are responsible.
We have to get this subject on the table, voluntary informed consent. And it’s not just about vaccination… So much is happening without our informed consent.
I totally rebelled when this nonsense started in 2020. Have not given a single vaccine since whereas before I would occasionally give a flu shot or two every year. I tell the higher ups they don’t want me to go into a little room alone with anyone and give my idea of informed consent if they want to sell vaccines.
The silver lining of Covid times is the millions of people who never were "vaccine hesitant" who now are. This will save many people from death or debilitating injuries in the future.
IMOtThe Flu Vaccine was the biggest medical scam of them all until Covid. Most people will still dutifully get this shot every year ... but not as many.
P.S. I now wonder if the satin prescriptions might be an even bigger scam.
A Freudian slip, to be sure! You wrote, "satin prescriptions..." Did you subconsciously mean, "Satan's prescriptions?"
My own dear "resting in peace" mom was fairly confident in taking yearly flu shots, but of her own accord, through experience, decided to desist. She got the "flu" anyway, and so why continue? But she was a tremendously healthy gardener, which should have preserved her life longer. Poor lady, suffered from a WEIRD disorder that caused her (in her 60's through 80's) to suffer from hot flashes and headaches! Something was definitely damaged permanently and I for one point to the flu jabs.
Just a note,
Ray
Until Covid, statins were the biggest medical boondoggle perpetrated upon humanity.
In the US at least, informed consent doesn't appear to apply to vaccines. https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/urgent-a-new-court-ruling-shows-the
Excellent post, Bill, very important points. It appears that all our cultural and intellectual institutions are being undermined in a very methodical way, casting out the most competent people.
But... While the psy-op may have come from elsewhere, in my experience throughout this covidan fiasco the pressure to comply was extra, extra heavy from my own peers and subordinates.
Speaking of sports coaches, one of my transcripts illustrates this. It's a heart-breaking story, told by the wife a high school sports coach. (A ways in, after telling her own story, she tells his.)
Sarah Chrastina: "When I woke up, it was a Saturday morning"
"So it's just the classic pattern that I then saw everywhere. When you stand up, you are shamed and bullied and censored. And you don't have a voice. Same with the vaccine injured, that we've heard today, right? It's a pattern."

Thank you, TB. You probably have a transcript that fits every story or essay! It is definitely "a pattern."
I suppose I do at this point, I have made so many transcripts for the 2021-2023 archive. And I'm still rounding it out. (Don't think I forgot Dr. Harvey Risch; he will definitely be in there, and more than once. And many others need to be in the archive as well.)
I'll tell Harvey in my email posts at The Brownstone Writers' Group!
I'm sure you've been told this, but you could actually publish a great book with the best or most compelling transcripts. You could divide them by topics. Edit them a little, etc.
Thanks, Bill. About a book, I know it would make a great book, but that would involve the boondoggle of permissions (these are not interviews conducted by myself) and having to charge— a whole concatenation of complications. Besides, actually, I am a writer and I have other, unrelated projects I need to return to. So I'm sticking with doing this archive of transcripts for those who may read them online and also, to donate print-outs to institutional archives for future historians.
Certainly an oral history of this period could and should be done—George Plimpton, Studs Terkel-style— and certainly I would expect perhaps several oral histories may be done of this period over the next years and decades— always a possibility as long there are still people alive to interview. (Perhaps you're the one to do it?)
PS I'm working on an index, which will include two shorter lists of selected transcripts, meant to be read through like from beginning to end chronologically, like an oral history.
I understand. The index project sounds like a good one. Good luck on your other writing projects, but we don't want to see you leave us yet!
Thank you, dear Bill. I'll be around for a while yet, since it's going to take the rest of this year and probably well into 2025 to finalize the archive. And even then, I would expect to add a few more transcripts here and there. And, even if I'm winding down my transcripts project, I'll no doubt still be reading your substack. Maybe under another name, though!
ooo...an index!
Here you go (it's under construction):

GREAT article, Bill, one everyone should read it. I think you're spot on and I'm sure it's spreading to other professions as well. My husband was a high school science teacher for 20 yrs, taught gifted children at a top school in San Francisco. The last 2 yrs of teaching the Vice Principal was harassing him. My husband was always standing up for the kids and for common sense rules, teaching etc. She didn't like it. After he was diagnosed with serious cancer lesion on his skin and surgery, he was home sick recovering. She called, I answered and she was extremely rude to me, trying to bully me. First of all, she shouldn't have been talking to me about it she should have talked to Tom, my husband. She was angry because he wasn't at school. I told her "are you aware my husband was diagnosed with cancer?" she never said "sorry to hear that" instead she said he needs to be here at school or he will lose his job. He had been planning to retire anyway due to all the idiocy in school administration and due to her bullying of him and other teachers who didn't tow the line. I hung up and immediately called adminstrative office and got him retired. I called her back and told her you don't have to worry about him any more, he's retired, he won't be back. (There were 3 more months of school year left). She was absolutely furious. Next morning she called early in a.m. and said Tom needs to be here, he's missing shcool. I told her "what part of HE IS RETIRED do you not understand? Quit harassing us, he's sick and needs to recover and hung up on her. This woman continued to be V.P. for another 19 yrs and finally retired, no doubt with a fat salary. In talking with other teachers we've met, this kind of thing was happening in schools all over in various states. It's sad because he was High School Biology Teacher of the Year in state of California, his students absolutely loved him and he was a great teacher. We're losing our best teachers and doctors because of these incompetent, idiots in charge who want only compliant puppets not people who actually have talent and brains. America used to be known for excellence. btw, same thing is happening in airline industry, they are now saying they want people with disabilities, including INTELLECTUAL disabilities. This is the reason we're seeing so many accidents, doors flying open on landing, etc. and passenger's lives are being endangered. I was a flight attendant many years for a top notch airline back in 1970s/80s/ and was so proud of it and it makes me very sad to see America going downhill like this. I suspect it's happening in other fields as well.
I can relate, E Grogan. The exact same thing happened to my wife when she was teaching at a school led by one of these education reform bullies. My wife was the most popular student in the school (with students) and she was fired .... because the principal (who was also the superintendent) could pick up on the fact my wife wasn't buying the program she was force-feeding students and that town.
Fortunately, my wife was later hired in my hometown (and became "Teacher of the Year" at her high school.) But when she was applying for other jobs, a few people told her a "Do-Not-Hire" message had been circulated among school systems.
There's a reason I highlighted the education field in the essay.
So very sorry to hear that happened to your wife Bill. It's the kind of thing that really hurts - and I'm sure it hurt her students, too. She was loved by them and was a hero to them and then suddenly she's fired - I"m sure they weren't very happy about it. So glad she was hired again and in your hometown - her new school sounds like a good place, especially since she was told the truth about Do Not Hire message. WOW. And I'm not surprised about those messages being circulated.
I could never get a salaried job at a conventional newspaper today. It would take 3-minutes' Internet search to see that my form of journalism does "not comply" with the journalism being produced by an corporate news organizations. It is what it is. Carrie has about five more years to get her 20 years in education. After all she's put up with, she at least needs to get a good pension to show for it!
My dad got journalism degree right after he was done in WW2. He worked in profession for several yrs but had to get out because he wanted to tell the truth to the public. That's why he went into public relations, formed his own firm and took on clients who were the underdogs being lied about in the press. It's amazing he could make a living but he did & he made a good living. That was in 1951 he established his P.R. firm, so journalism has been a quagmire since at least then. I remember my dad still had friends who were reporters and editors often quashed their stories because they "didn't tow the line". It's very sad, Bill, because you're a good writer, you tell the truth that needs to be told and you'd be great at reporting, we need more folks like you in journalism today.
Please tell Carrie for me I have HUGE respect for her for staying in teaching profession - we need all the teachers like Carrie that we can find! Also tell her staying 5 more yrs is worth it for the pension, as medical benefits are terrific and pension is quite good, too. Besides, we need all the good teachers we can find these days, considering what they're teaching kids these days.
Prayers for her hoping she can make it another 5 yrs.
Thank you. I will pass along those words to Carrie. She actually took a new job 30 miles from Troy two years ago in Ozark City Schools. For a year she taught vocational education - teaching students how to be teachers. Recently, she got a new job as a "career coach" so she's no longer in the classroom every day. She kind of moves throughout the different schools and grades and also works with local industry and employers who might employ some of her students. So far, she likes it. I've heard some war stories about what today's classrooms can really be like.
But there's also plenty of uplifting stories too.
Sounds like she's out of the classroom a lot and away from watchful eyes, hopefully. Thank the Lord there is someone like Carrie to teach a new generation what teaching is really all about and how to be a good teacher!!
This story really saddens me. I hate how they can be obnoxious, non-caring, aggressive bullies…only relying on power: and negative power at that!
The sad part is it's hard to push-back against these people and organizations. It's actually almost impossible.
As they say, you can't fight City Hall, especially if it's completely captured.
I have two ideas circulating in my head:
1) The spiritual one….I still remember during confirmation class the pastor reminding us that the devil has limited power compared to God. So there is hope…problem being : is there hope in this earthly life.
2) Education situation, teacher for many decades, got my admin. Certification, too. In this area it was often said on a daily basis when dealing with student issues that one chooses their own battles. So it became necessary to determine the most beneficial way to deal with the situation. Maybe not always dealing with the bad behavior, first but rather helping the student choose the path that will change the behavior. Sometimes it was just necessary to provide the guidance for the student to get through another day at school where academics wasn’t of prime importance. City Hall and those toughies who it seems that there is no hope of changing them…Maybe like students one’s approach might be to guide them to another way of operating in life? In spiritual thought that means softening their heart.
As a retired therapist, IMO some folks are able to change and see the light. Others never will - aka sociopaths, psychopaths etc. There do seem to be a lot of folk in those 2 groups these days, just something I've noticed. They seem to gravitate to positions of authority, too, sadly.
Teachers can and do change lives by picking their battles. I know my wife has a profound influence on countless former and current students ... and she's fighting these battles with woke or misguided administrators who just make things harder than they should be.
I believe an unusual virus sickened enough people, particularly the old and compromised, in strategic locations with fairly severe flu-like symptoms.
The concern was blown into full-on panic by the WHO, the healthcare networks they influence, politicians and the mainstream media. Akin to screaming fire! in a crowded theater.
Interestingly few in biological sciences questioned how a famously replication incompetent RNA virus could possibly spread and wreak havoc in the manner we were being told. Those questioning any of the dictates handed down by a select few of experts were dealt with harshly.
PCR testing particularly when amped by over-cycling can detect a single covid molecule swabbed off nasopharyngeal tissue. But it cannot tell you if the symptoms you are experiencing (or not experiencing) are from a Covid infection or something else. Thus PCR is a poor diagnostic tool but was a convenient way to extend the state of emergency long past its expiration date.
Once a patient tested positive for Covid, hospitals through a combination of fear, political pressure, and monetary incentive rejected considering anything else and immediately initiated the Covid protocol which was likely inappropriate for some patients. It is logical influenza, bronchitis and pneumonia did not simply disappear but were overshadowed by Covid obsession. A case of, you don’t find what you don’t look for.
The so called vaccines (which are not vaccines) were rolled out at suspiciously high speed under the premise they would end the pandemic, suggesting a return to pre-2020 normalcy. They were billed as safe and effective. The force via multiple punitive measures utilized in their deployment “Covid won’t end until all are vaccinated” was highly suspect.
As time went on it began leaking that for some their so-called vaccination was not safe at all. For most they were not effective either. Bill Gates (after making major bank) said the vaccines were “a disappointment.” No matter their dismal failure the new propaganda said, ongoing boosters were now necessary. And, you won’t get as sick.
Still, most in the sciences that we are constantly being told to trust did not question how a replication incompetent RNA virus can behave so illogically. Instead we are now supposedly fighting a new monster, variants.
Variants are now at the core of post pandemic hysteria. Kept alive by all members of the Covid Theater Community.
On one side bad actors dangle silly names and fancy alphanumeric monikers. On the other side they insist bad science will unleash a killer variant any…day…now.
Both are lies designed to prevent covid from ever fizzling out. Ever.
Covid is profitable not only for big pharma but also for those alleging to save us from big pharma. Both sides are exploiting us for their own selfish purposes using perpetual fear and alarm.
Want to end covid? Then drive a stake through the heart of VARIANTS. See them as a marketing strategy. Because that is exactly what they are.
The entirety of the Scamdemic has been theatre. Fright Night, designed to soften us up. Weaken our resolve for freedom, sovereignty and independence. Reduced to serfs to be monitored and controlled cradle to grave.
Welcome to our “not so” Brave New World.
Excellent summary, GLK. Gracias.
I appreciate the reasoned and non-sensationalistic tone of your comment. Thank you!
Thanks. Occasionally I can contain my anger. But when I reflect on thousands of unnecessary iatrogenic deaths. People with tears running down their cheeks, told there’s nothing more that can be done, pumped with narcotics and taken off vents gasping their last breaths ALONE.
Or, kindergarteners being scolded for pulling down masks. Empty parks, eerily quiet streets. Suicides, job loss, anger, abuse, alcohol and drug abuse. Fauci suggesting wearing two masks even while at home as I’m certain he was laughing to himself.
The politicians, healthcare professionals, celebrities that openly called for my head for refusing injection. And, more.
When I think about what was done to humanity, men, women, girls, boys, infants, fetuses, it is exceedingly difficult to remain reasoned and non-sensationalist. But thank you for the compliment.
I’ll leave with a last thought. When has it ever been a good idea to ramp up fear and alarm during a healthcare emergency of any sort?
It doesn’t matter if it’s an individual in a MVA or a mass casualty event the first order of business was always to impart a sense of calm. This time was the opposite.
From the WHO on down nobody interjected a sense of, remain calm, we’ve got this.
Nay, this was unusually handled for the purpose of herding. These people and their accomplices are psychopaths that deserve a firing squad.
Good point that normally the first order of business is to counsel everyone to remain calm and NOT panic.
At least that's the counsel in a real crisis that might happen in our town. With the alleged geopolitical crises, panic and over-reaction are par for the course. It seems like more citizens would have figured this out by now. Divide the crisis or threat not by 2, but by at least 9.
'I’ll leave with a last thought. When has it ever been a good idea to ramp up fear and alarm during a healthcare emergency of any sort?'
An excellent observation, and one which the populace was too busy panicking to think about. Which was no doubt the point.
It starts in Kindergarten and never lets up. Character word of the month is "respect." Always respect your elders and rules and policies and help those in charge force others to follow them always.
The problem is all levels of government are too big and have too much power. If half dozen states would remove the choke hold the big pharma mafia has on doctors via licensing and let the free market work the issues out, the problem vanishes. But the laws are bought to limit choices, of referees, of doctors and of politicians.
The only solution is to escape gov't influence or at least control in the critical areas of life. Not going to be easy.
It is great you bring up the constant calls for “respect.” This is one of the little insidious words they’ve infected with subtle double meaning. This one was best explained by this brilliant 2015 post:
—
Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
99% of doctors give the rest a bad name.

That's a classic to be sure! As is this one: "Even when I tell you the truth, you still don't believe me!"

Excellent, and other than the irrelevant sports digression (Don't give the sports leagues or their advertisers even a dime! It's just a time, attention, and mental energy waster.), much more succinct than "A Midwestern Doctor" would have written it. Thank you for allowing comments.
I like my digression into the Sports world. I can't tell you how much those ego-tripping, power-hungry, narrative-supporting sports commissioners get under my skin. But thanks for the nice words!
Don't forget our military...
Probably the worst when it comes to "obey" and "comply" or else! They've spent decades weeding out all the sane officers and NCOs.
Another option for those rogue doctors is counterfeit vaccine certificates. If found out they'll be fired, of course, but the alternative is to not be a doctor anyway, so nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Exactly. You've got nothing to lose and something to, perhaps, gain.
Great article Bill, and spot on.
Thank you. I wrote a first draft yesterday and didn't like it. I woke up this morning and did some serious polishing ... and decided to go ahead and hit the "send" button. It seems to have resonated with many readers. I do think just about every big organization wants people who will comply and no employees who are likely to push back on The Current Thing.
My "eureka!" moment was the realization that such employees are screened by various means early on.
So exactly true. You nailed it!
Legal immigrants: The CDC / USA still requires a mRNA Covid Vacc as a precondition to get a green card. As a result me and my family cannot unite as I am not vaccinated. Anyone there who is equally affected?
Another good example. Thanks.
