According to different sources, from 263 to 283 Americans attended the Games. The DoD says only “seven” became ill, a claim that may not be accurate. Key Takeaway from Today’s Dispatch Evidence continues to emerge that public health and government officials likelyengaged in a wide-ranging conspiracyto

The First Step on the Covid Shots by Clayton J. Baker, MD at Brownstone Institute The FDA’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) is holding a very important meeting on May 22, 2025. Under consideration at this meeting is the fate of the Covid booster shots.

Clerical Abuse Redefined

Brownstone Institute ·

2025/05/20

Clerical Abuse Redefined by Thomas Harrington at Brownstone Institute Clerical abuse is a term we’ve all, sadly, become acquainted with over the last two decades or so. As a practice, it revolves around the grievous misuse of power, of leveraging an authority rooted in a supposedly special relationship to transcendent forces to commit soul-destroying violence against those who are truly the “least of our brethren." It is hard, for me at least, to think of a more vile form of trespass, in that

The Mandates of the Managerial State

The Mandates of the Managerial State by Bruce Pardy at Brownstone Institute Forget the members of Parliament who may have colluded with foreign governments. The real menace, the RCMP seem to think, are House of Commons pages. MPs suspected of foreign election interference should not be identified, the Mounties have insisted, but House of Commons staff must be fingerprinted. Serious threats to the country are hidden away, while innocent people are subjected to state surveillance. If you want to

The Mom Executive Order

The Mom Executive Order by Christine Black at Brownstone Institute Your mom was right. The government should not have closed schools; you should have been able to breathe and play freely with your friends; the Covid period fear and hysteria devastated and harmed and never should have happened. Young people didn’t need Covid shots that the CDC and pharmaceutical companies knew may hurt people. Many now call for their complete cessation. In spite of masks, arbitrary six-feet distancing,

The WHO Cannot Be Saved

Brownstone Institute ·

2025/05/19

The WHO Cannot Be Saved by David Bell at Brownstone Institute As humans, we commonly consider ourselves, our beliefs, and our work of particular importance. It is not surprising, then, that when we form institutions, those within them seek to promote the institution’s relevance, expand their work, and centralize decision-making within their own ‘particularly important’ group. Few want to divest power and resources, let alone put themselves and their colleagues out of a job. This fatal flaw

No Vaccination against Unlimited Political Power

No Vaccination against Unlimited Political Power by James Bovard at Brownstone Institute Late in the last century, theater goers were jolted when a character in the X-Files movie declared that the Federal Emergency Management Agency can allow "the White House to suspend constitutional government upon declaration of a national emergency." If the same line was used before thoughtful movie audiences nowadays, the response might be bitter cat calls or perhaps expletives unfit to quote on a

There Will Always Be ‘Trouble in River City’ by Bill Rice at Brownstone Institute Unlike Dr. Anthony Fauci, Professor Harold Hill is the rare snake-oil salesman who turned over a new leaf. I’m grateful my son, Jack, got the opportunity to perform in The Music Man. No child had this opportunity four years ago. The Troy University Speech and Drama Department just completed a four-night run of the beloved musical The Music Man. Since our third-grade sonJackplayed the part of Winthrop, my wife

Experts Shred Australia’s Covid-19 Inquiry by Maryanne Demasi at Brownstone Institute In September 2023, the Australian governmentannouncedan independent Inquiry into the nation’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. From the outset, critics predicted a whitewash. The government had already walked back its promise to hold a Royal Commission. Instead, it settled for an ‘Inquiry’ that would lack broad powers to compel witnesses under oath and subpoena documents. It was billed as

Why No Justice for Shot Victims?

2025/05/15

Why No Justice for Shot Victims? by Bert Olivier at Brownstone Institute I have previously wondered whether the recent (and continuing) revelations about the Covid injections’ death toll would bring any justice. Given the rapidly increasing number of studies and reports concerning the rising death toll that may arguably be causally linked to the so-called Covid ‘vaccines,’ one can therefore quite reasonably ask: why has there still been no concrete attempt to prosecute the pharmaceutical

We Have Yet to Be Drawn and Quartered

We Have Yet to Be Drawn and Quartered by David Bell at Brownstone Institute History is a series of variations on basic feudalism, with limited exceptions during which serfs threw off the worst of their shackles for some years in the sun, before being pilloried and stood on once more. Wealth is always most effectively accumulated through the indentured labor of others, so indenturing will remain the default. As most humans are too apathetic to kick others in the gut without instruction, or too

The Drug Pricing Scramble by Jeffrey A. Tucker at Brownstone Institute For the same pharmaceutical products, US prices can be anywhere between two and ten times higher in US markets compared to prices across the border. Nor is importation allowed, even though this would drive prices toward equilibrium by facilitating market competition. This problem has persisted for decades. US taxpayers and health insurance subscribers subsidize pharmaceutical products for the rest of the world. While many

The Manipulators’ Playbook by Gigi Foster at Brownstone Institute [Here is the text of my TedX talk in Australia, October 2024, which the sponsor refused to post] Every four years, when I was growing up in the US, my mother and father would go to the polling booths and cancel each other out. They’d come home and say as much, with a smirk. Then they’d clink their glasses and have “cocktail hour” together, and enjoy the end of another day of married life in each other’s arms. Mom was a

Do We Even Need a Surgeon General? by Bobbie Anne Flower Cox at Brownstone Institute There is much buzz in the media about President Trump’s new pick for Surgeon General, Dr. Casey Means. She sprang into the spotlight, and the hot seat, just a few days ago when President Trump withdrew from consideration his first nominee, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat. Apparently Nesheiwat publiclymisrepresentedher medical schooling, and was also receiving strong criticism for supporting the Covid-19 jab during the

Who Was in Charge of Covid Communications? by Debbie Lerman at Brownstone Institute Nearly a year ago, Dr. Robert Redfield, who headed the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) during the first year of Covid, said in an interview that vaccine mandates were a bad idea and that lockdowns and school closures were government overreach. He said the virus came from a US-funded lab in Wuhan. He said Anthony Fauci made mistakes and was not transparent enough with the public. Hopefully,

In the past decade, the number of children and adolescents identifying as transgender or nonbinary has soared.
