Mercury BANNED in US Vaccines

Child Vaccine

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s next step toward making America Healthy again is an outright ban on thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative, found in common vaccines. “I’m proud to finally deliver on a long-overdue promise: protecting our most vulnerable from unnecessary mercury exposure,” Kennedy stated on a video posted on X, noting that the chemical is a known neurotoxin that has been administered to millions of Americans.

The former director of the FDA, Willian Egan, admitted in 2001 that the safety of this preservative had never been studied. The government simply allowed the pharmaceutical agencies to incorporate it in vaccines to extend their shelf lives. PubMed and PubChem, as Kennedy stated, have published countless peer-reviewed studies citing thimerosal as a known carcinogen and neurotoxin. The FDA has a clear understanding that this chemical can cause reproductive issues. They are also aware that the chemical is linked to mild to severe retardation, autism, and/or motor skill impairment in children, but children are encouraged to take the vaccine to stop the spread. One study found that women had a 7.7x greater chance of miscarriage if they received the common flu vaccine while pregnant, but pregnant women are still encouraged to take the vaccination. “They had the science but chose to ignore it,” Kennedy announced. Every agency was aware that this was an ongoing danger to the public for decades. In fact, the current amount of mercury found in the common flu vaccination is 25,000 times over the EPA’s current safety level for drinking water.

These chemicals are so hazardous that they are required to be disposed of in special landfills for hazardous waste, and yet, we were permitting the pharmaceutical agencies to inject these toxins into our bodies and convincing the public that they must blindly take the vaccine for the greater good of society. No one has been allowed to comment on the dangers despite the various studies that warn against its use in humans.

VAXXED

Why is this controversial? As Kennedy stated, he has been attempting to ban mercury from fish, but no one has deemed him “anti-fish.” Anti-vax or any skepticism regarding vaccinations has been deemed a threat to the government, as the people should not question their guidance, or they will be labeled a crazed conspiracist.

This chemical was known to cause harm in humans, but it helped big pharma to increase its bottom line. It is simply a preservative with ZEO benefits. Kennedy’s declaration comes weeks after Bill Gates invested another $1.6 billion into the GAVI vaccine alliance program. The World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF, the World Bank, vaccine manufacturers, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are all responsible for the GAVI program and they have already vaccinated 760 million children worldwide. Bill Gates happens to be the foundation’s largest donor, already contributing $7.7 billion to the cause. The European Union recently partnered with Gates to contribute funding toward GAVI as well, since all the Build Back Better nations believe in the outdated science.

Now, the only reason thimerosal is controversial is that it puts government authority into question. “The science” is never wrong, allegedly. The people should not think independently or question their overlords when they deem health precautions necessary. It’s for the greater good of the public, so they say. Yet, the public already lost trust in the government long ago, and the fallout from COVID completely dismantled any remaining trust the people had in “the science.” Kennedy’s work could actually encourage vaccinations as the people now demand transparency from their government.

Yet, vaccinations are the least of our troubles now as the government is plotting a swifter demise for the masses through warfare.

America’s Golden Dome

GoldenDomeTrump

The United States is preparing to launch the Golden Dome project, a large-scale missile defense system to actively shield the nation against all threats by space, land, and sea. Inspired by Israel’s Iron Dome system and Reagan’s historic Strategic Defense Initiative, the Golden Dome would be the largest missile defense system in American history.

Donald Trump first proposed the idea in January 2025, but plans are underway to complete the project by the end of Trump’s second term. “They want a win to point to in November [2028],” a defense official told CNN. “And DoD [Department of Defense] wants to avoid anything they perceive will slow them down.”

The official called the proposed defense system “technically risky” due to the number of satellites required to achieve success. Space Force Gen. Michael Guetlein commented, “I think the real technical challenge will be building of the space-based interceptor. That technology exists, I believe. I believe we have proven every element of the physics, that we can make it work. What we have not proven is, first, can I do it economically, and then second, can I do it at scale? Can I build enough satellites to get after the threat? Can I expand the industrial base fast enough to build those satellites?” The Missile Defense Agency, expected to be called FTI-X for Flight Test Integrated, has plans to begin testing the system in 2028.

The project will cost the United States $175 billon dollars, or at least that is the extremely low figure the White House is stating. The $25 billion down payment was allocated under the Big Beautiful Bill spending package, but the government currently estimates it will take 20 years to pay the bill in its entirety. Some predictions state the costs could spike into the trillions if the project evolves and new technology is required.

GoldenDome.Russia.China_.JointStatement

Trump was unable to secure a tiny fraction of that amount to build a border wall during his first term, but he may achieve success this time around as the threat is a bipartisan issue—Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea. These deemed enemy nations have already stated that the Golden Dome would launch a massive arms race to militarize space.

China expressed concerns back in May 2025. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning stated: “The project will heighten the risk of turning space into a war zone and creating a space arms race, and shake the international security and arms control system… Golden Dome intends to create an unconstrained, global, multi-layer and multi-domain missile defense system, planning the expansion of the U.S. arsenal of means for combat operations in outer space… China is gravely concerned.”

Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin released a joint statement in May regarding the project, deeming it
“deeply destabilizing.” “The recently announced large-scale ‘Golden (Iron) Dome for America’ program is also deeply destabilizing… [It] provides for a significant strengthening of the arsenal for conducting combat operations in space.”

Russia believes it has the technology to penetrate any air defense system. “Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly stated that our strategic systems are equipped so that we can reliably break through any air defense systems, including layered ones,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov stated. Russia does not want the American neocons to believe they are invincible.

Russia has secured at least 22,000 civil defense bunkers for their people in the event of a nuclear war—America has none and the people are not mentally prepared for the threat of a nuclear attack. When events do begin to unfold, I would avoid the major cities and all the military targets. In a nuclear war, you first target your opponent’s military assets. Second, you target the economic assets. Third, you seek to wipe out the major population centers.

Russia could simply deploy a dozen EMPs across the US and our industry would totally shut down, our people would die-off like flies and nothing would work. So, Russia, China and North Korea will probably focus most of the nuclear weapons on military targets and let a dozen EMPs destroy our power-grid-dependent people. Golden Dome will provoke furious opposition from Russia and China because it undermines their nuclear deterrent. The risk is that it accelerates an arms race, potentially destabilizing decades of strategic treaties. Yet, the project is essential in a world where hypersonic and nuclear threats are no longer theoretical but immediate. This project reflects a shift toward space as the next battlefield.

Los Angeles County Board Profiting on Homeless Epidemic

Homeless

Politicians, NGOs, and shady nonprofits have been profiting on California’s homeless crisis for years. Taxpayers continue to pour money into the situation, without their consent, but the unhoused population continues to rise. I’ve spoken out about this blatant ongoing corruption numerous times. Once again, California Democrats have found a way to steal tens of millions from taxpayers under the guise of fixing the homeless epidemic.

The  Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in Torrance has plans to purchase a $30 million building with 122 units under Governor Gavin Newsom’s Homekey+ plan. The first glaring discrepancy is pricing—city leaders appraised the building to be worth between $9.2 million and $10.2 million. Why are politicians demanding an additional $20 million?

The Torrance City Council unanimously voted against the project back in May 2025, stating that it would be a threat to public safety. The selected location is also near the main commercial hub of the city, which would detract customers, and would also be located near a middle school. The city of Torrance proposed two alternative locations for the homeless center, and yet, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors denied both options despite them being city-owned.

“Our responsibility as a city is to listen to our residents and act in a way that reflects our community’s values,” said Torrance Mayor George K. Chen. “The results of this independent appraisal reinforce the concerns many in our city have already raised.”

The extent of corruption goes deeper. The 2025 LAHSA Point-in-Time Count compiled by the county, as reported by RedState, found that there are only 50 homeless people regularly living in Torrance. Worse, there are 171 existing in place for those 50 individuals. There is a tiny home village in Torrance with space for 40 people, but only 9 people chose to leave the streets to live there and the pilot program was considered a failure.

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is acting recklessly and wasting public funds for their own gain. There would be no need for these organizations if the homeless crisis were actually solved.

The Rare Earth Crisis

Rare Earths

QUESTION: If Trump imposes sanctions on China for buying Russian energy, what do you expect China to do?

Rob

ANSWER:  The deeper you look, the more it becomes abundantly clear. America’s defence supply chain is built on materials it doesn’t control. Missiles, fighter jets, radar systems, drones — all depend on a steady stream of materials like gallium, germanium, and rare earth magnets, and they come from China. That is why Trump was demanding access to Ukraine. This is not something that is widely discussed. But in an aggressive war, the US cannot produce jets like it did in WWII. They are more sophisticated, so you cannot produce quantities like before, and you need rare earths. NEOCONS are void of long-term strategic planning. They only look at what is in front of their nose.

Trump is Taking us into World War III listening to the Wrong People

COMMENT:

Marty,

yes, they want to talk and force war by any means necessary. How

incredibly crude and predictable the words coming from the mouth of US

Ambassador to NATO, Matt Whitaker, are. Although I know, especially

based on historical facts from WW1 and WW2, how war propaganda and the

demonization of the enemy work, I am still shocked every time by how

blatantly and crudely they keep doing it. I am even more shocked every

time by how stupid the vast majority of people are.

There are times when I would even welcome a population exchange and

extermination of the Western world in the hope and with the stupid but

human impulse that this would eradicate a large part of the evil. I am

fully aware that this is not true. But the human impulse still rises

within me.

I have sons and grandchildren; we left Europe last decade! Especially

because of your predictions! We hope to be far away from the catastrophe

unfolding here in the coming years.

Marty, we owe you a great deal for making the timely decision to leave

Europe.

US Ambassador to NATO, Matt Whitaker:

It’s impossible to get into the mind of Vladimir Putin because it’s sick

and twisted and probably not logical.

But I’m guessing he doesn’t want to take on the most powerful military

in the world, which is the United States of America.

GB

Incompetent

REPLY: This is the problem. Whitaker’s arrogance thinks that the US is so powerful that it can crush Russia without ever firing a shot and calling Putin “sick and twisted” when we started this war, and there were TWO peace deals which the WEST broke – not Russia. I have NEVER in my entire life witnessed such INCOMPETENT diplomacy. The Neocons have been instructing Trump to be strong and yield nothing to Putin, and he will fold.  Peace is easy. Just HONOR the Minsk Agreement. But this is a war to destroy Russia, and Trump is a fool who is being played just like George Bush, Jr.

Financial Capital World Economy

China has already said that they will NOT let Russia lose BECAUSE they know they will be next. The ONLY way to defend against our insane Neocons is to pull together as a united front with Russia, China, North Korea, and others against the West. Both India and China have previously been the financial capitals of the world. Just as Europe lost that because of two world wars, we will do the same.

WWIII Sides

These Neocons have waged endless wars, and they have lost EVERY SINGLE ONE! They think this will be just a war against Russia, and they can tell China to wait for its turn. This is a war against NATO and China, along with everyone else tired of this Neocon arrogance, will join to eradicate the West.

NATO_Defeat Russia_in_3_Days Adam Kinzinger

These insane and arrogant Neocons are just full of themselves. They are NEVER the ones on the battlefield. They send everyone else’s children to die for their aspirations of world dominance and glory. Make no mistake. They seek what they accuse their adversaries of doing – the conquest of the world.

Neocon Propaganda

This is the story they always put out. Russia is losing, and we can crush them like an ant.

DJIND W Array 8 4 25

The computer shows shift changes as of next week, escalating into the week of the 18th. So let me see, Trump will impose crushing sanctions on China for buying Russian oil? They are supposed to bend the knee and say Oh, sorry. We will buy from the US instead? That would be a massive loss of face. Every ultimatum coming out of Trump’s mouth is pushing China and Russia closer together.

Here is Tony Blair’s Apology for listening to the NEOCONS.

Here is General Wesley Clark, who was shocked when the Neocons told him they wanted to conquer the entire Middle East with American troops.

2022 Intl War Index

I’m not sure we will have a recording of Trump’s apology for starting World War III. I had hoped he would keep us out. I was wrong. The computer has always been correct. We have a major war on the horizon, and it does not look good.

Kremlin: Putin Willing to Meet Zelenskyy


Posted originally on CTH on August 4, 2025 | Sundance

On Sunday President Trump remarked that emissary Steve Witkoff was likely to travel to Russia this week, presumably at the request of Kremlin officials.  Earlier President Trump shortened the deadline for Russia to come to the negotiating table from 50 days to 10-12 days. The preferred timeline by President Trump ends this Friday.

(AP) – Vladimir Putin is open to meeting Volodymyr Zelensky for talks following “preparatory work at the expert level,” the Kremlin has announced, according to the state-owned RT television station.

“I would like to remind you that the president himself does not rule out the possibility of holding such a meeting,” Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman said. “But only after the necessary work is done at the expert level and the appropriate distance is overcome.”

He said that the “preparatory work” had not yet been done. Putin has previously rejected several attempts by Zelensky to meet for talks over ending the Ukraine war.

Peskov also did not rule out a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump’s Special Envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Putin later this week, the state run TASS news agency reported.

[…] Witkoff is expected to land in the Russian capital on Wednesday or Thursday, according to Trump, following his trip to Israel and Gaza.

“They would like to see (Witkoff),” Trump said Sunday of the Russians. “They’ve asked that he meet so we’ll see what happens.”

Peskov said Monday: “We are always glad to see Mr. Witkoff in Moscow. “We consider (talks with Witkoff) important, substantive and very useful.” (more)

Is this a Putin delay strategy?

U.S. trade talks with India collapsed and simultaneously the Modi government refused to distance themselves from Russia.

BRICS+ represented by Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa + Egypt and Iran, seem to be standing firm on the nature of their economic bloc, which -I might add- only got stronger when the Biden sanctions against Russia were put into place.

Even President Trump seemed to indicate Sunday the “sanctions threat” doesn’t really hold a lot of influence when it comes to Russia.  A secondary sanctions regime against countries that align to purchase Russian energy products could end up backfiring.

DC Area Statistics Reflect Federal Govt Downsizing


Posted originally on CTH on August 4, 2025 | Sundance

President Donald Trump is actually doing something almost all presidents have failed to do, reduce the size and scale of the federal government.

The Washington Post is very concerned about the economic datapoints coming from the DC area.  Including: “the Trump administration’s overhaul of the federal workforce, including the elimination of thousands of federal jobs, is being acutely felt in a national capital region.”

WaPo – In May, D.C.’s unemployment rate was 5.9 percent — the highest in more than three years.  The number of federal workers turning to unemployment insurance is climbing steadily, with claims rising 64 percent between February and June — from 1,064 to 1,747. That surge is starting to show up in the city’s bottom line: In June alone, D.C. paid out more than $2.5 million in federal civilian jobless benefits, a sharp jump from earlier in the spring.

Maryland saw a similar spike, with payments nearly doubling since April. In Virginia’s Fairfax County, unemployment has reached levels not seen since mid-2021.

LAYOFFS – Layoffs tracked through Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act notices are rapidly climbing. The federal WARN Act requires large employers to give advance notice before mass layoffs, offering an early signal of job market stress. So far this year, the D.C. region has recorded more WARN-notice layoffs than in any year outside the pandemic, with nearly 10,000 workers cut as of July — more than the total of the last two years combined. While the data mostly reflects private-sector job losses, it underscores how quickly layoffs are accelerating.

SPENDING – Consumer spending in D.C. is also starting to slip. Washingtonians are cutting back on things like dining out, clothing, and beauty products — and they’re doing so more sharply than people in other big cities. In June, spending at full-service restaurants was down 9 percent compared with the prior year, a steeper drop than in places like Atlanta, Boston and Miami.  The same pattern shows up in categories like apparel and entertainment, pointing to a local slowdown even as spending elsewhere holds steadier.

TAX BASE – The D.C. Office of Revenue Analysis is forecasting a rare population dip in 2027 — a 0.2 percent decline — along with shrinking tax collections. In June, the city revised its tax revenue outlook for 2026 from one of growth to decline. The city expects only modest growth in 2027, with property and business taxes still lagging.

HOUSING – Predictably, with uncertainty looming, the real estate picture is starting to shift. “We still have a shortage, meaning there is more demand for housing than supply,” Lee said. “And with that, the prices go up.”

But inventory is climbing, a sign that fewer buyers are competing for homes. At the same time, new apartment construction is tapping the brakes — about 8,000 units went up in the first quarter of 2025, well below the usual 12,000 to 16,000 seen in recent quarters. (more)
