ACTION: Send Letter to Trump on COVID Shot Harms

UPDATE:

Go here for Independent Medical Alliance’s (IMA) letter to President Trump on how Frontline Doctors are calling for Truth, Transparency, and Reform.  Important excerpt:

Estimates of mRNA injuries are in the millions, with countless lives negatively impacted or even lost. Yet, when these concerns are presented to Big Pharma, as well as prior HHS Administrations, they’re not met with scientific research or applied medicine, but with quick dismissals or stiff public relations campaigns seeking to tamp down any discussion.

That’s why we fought so hard to support the confirmation of RFK Jr. to HHS Secretary. There is no other agency of government more in need of reform than HHS, and within HHS, the CDC should be first on the top-to-bottom reform list.

Mr. President, we stand ready to engage—respectfully, scientifically, and constructively—with pharmaceutical leaders, regulators, and fellow clinicians to gain access to full disclosure of data sets and other research in pursuit of data clarity and patient safety. To that end, we request that the White House convene a series of meetings with independent physicians and drug industry executives where all data can be exchanged, analyzed, and discussed.

A Letter to President Donald J.Trump:

 

Dear President Donald J. Trump,

I hope that this document reaches your hands, and I hope that you allow this information to touch your heart.

I believe that you are working to achieve peace on a global scale, but I hope that you can come to understand the enormous scale of biological warfare going on inside the bodies of every man, woman and child who has received the COVID-19 mRNA injections. At this point in time, no one knows how to end the warfare that is going on within the bodies, minds and spirits of those who received the COVID-19 mRNA injections. The collateral damage from Operation Warp Speed is that millions of people are stuck in a living hell, and their government and our society have largely denied their plight, attempted to shame them, and have continually ignored their pleas for help. PLEASE LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN HARMED.

Autopsies of those who have received these COVID-19 mRNA injections have clearly shown cellular destruction­ on a massive scale that makes the devastation in Gaza seem mild.

As a father and a grandfather, I believe that you want your immediate family to enjoy the best of health, and I trust that you want the same for everyone else. I believe that you truly do want to Make America Healthy Again.

However, I must inform you that neither you nor RFK Jr. will ever be able to Make America Healthy Again if our nation keeps on injecting innocent, healthy children with mRNA biological products.

I believe that a massive amount of evidence has been withheld from you.

Included in this document are numerous case studies of people who were harmed by the COVID-19 mRNA injections. These are not anecdotal stories. These have all been published in well known journals and are available on PubMed. There are also literally thousands of published papers available online that document the mechanisms of action by which the COVID-19 mRNA injections have caused enormous harm to millions of people. When you truly see the reality of the suffering that people around the world have endured because of the mRNA injections, you will be absolutely horrified.

However, there are also horrors that I cannot share, not even with you, because they are from thousands of unborn fetuses that were spontaneously aborted when their pregnant mothers received the COVID-19 mRNA injections and suffered through the pain and heartbreak of losing their unborn child.

We all make different decisions when we gain access to information that had previously been hidden from our view. I believe that when you are properly briefed on the information that has been kept from you, then you will realize what you must do and change your policies regarding the mRNA platform.

America needs you to stand in opposition to the mRNA platform.

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. knows what needs to be done. He just needs for you to let him do it.

God bless you. God bless your family. God bless America.

God bless everyone on earth, especially the children.

Sincerely,

James Roguski

Italian Study: COVID Shots Increase Risk of Multiple Cancers

https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/breaking-first-population-wide-study?

BREAKING: First Population-Wide Study Finds COVID-19 “Vaccines” Increase Risk of Multiple Cancers

Official government data from nearly 300,000 people tracked for 30 months show mRNA shots significantly increase the risk of overall cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer, and colorectal cancer.

A groundbreaking new peer-reviewed study has just been published in EXCLI Journal. For the first time, researchers formally analyzed the long-term relationship between COVID-19 vaccination and cancer hospitalizations in a population-wide cohort of nearly 300,000 residents of Pescara province, Italy.

The study followed every resident aged ≥11 years for 30 months (June 2021 through December 2023) using official National Health Service data. The main vaccines administered were Pfizer-BioNTech (Comirnaty) and Moderna (Spikevax) mRNA shots, with smaller proportions receiving AstraZeneca (Vaxzevria) and Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) viral vector vaccines.

Importantly, the statistical models were adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, COPD, kidney disease), prior cancer, and prior SARS-CoV-2 infection — ensuring that infection status was explicitly taken into account. This makes it the longest and most comprehensive follow-up to date on cancer outcomes after COVID-19 vaccination.

The results are deeply concerning: while the study shows the expected biases that make vaccines look like they reduce overall death rates, it also uncovers the first statistically significant evidence of increased cancer risk following COVID-19 vaccination.  (See link for article)

______________

Important Excerpt:

  • The strongest, statistically significant increases were found for breast, bladder, colorectal, and overall cancer risk.

  • Nearly all other cancer sites also showed an upward trend, though not statistically significant due to wide confidence intervals.

  • Only lung and prostate cancers showed no evidence of increased risk.

It’s also important to note that this study, as all others stating the clot shots somehow reduced death, utilize a ‘healthy vaccinee bias,’ which simply means that since the ‘vaccinated’ are more likely to engage in health prevention, their cancer hospitalization rates should have been reduced; however, increases were still found and true cancer risk due to the shot may actually be greater than what was detected.  The other studies being used to tout the ‘safe and effective’ narrative used all sorts of shamwizardry to obtain that pre-determined outcome.  A few tactics used:

  • Trusts other studies (remember the adage: Trust but verify?)
  • Doesn’t reference any record level data to verify conclusions
  • Using modeling, not real world patient data
  • Not taking into account ‘vaccine’ harms
  • Using incorrect assumptions about fatality rates and ‘vaccine’ efficacy
  • And more…..
One thing is clear: mass COVID-19 “vaccination” campaigns unleashed a turbo cancer epidemic & severe harm

Debunking ‘Virology is Fraud’ Arguments &

As you know, this website has posted on both sides of the viral debate.  Do they exist or don’t they?  Deniers say it has to do with ‘purification’ and that they have not managed to truly isolate a singular entity, among other issues.  Below is an article that is pro-virus.

One thing is for certain: our own government is tweaking bacteria and ‘viruses’ in labs to make them more virulent and transmissible to humans.  Our own government has been involved in utilizing ‘viruses’ to take away our freedoms and mandating untested and experimental products which have caused untold harm – all for profit.  Their profit, not ours.

But, per usual, illness is often far more complicated than one thing.

There are so many toxic variables now, it’s nearly impossible to sleuth out what is causing or exacerbating what.  Between pesticides, herbicides, poor food quality, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), bioweapons, geoengineering (weather modification), ‘vaccines,’ EMF in 5G, smart meters, WiFi, unhealthy LED lighting, and blue lightfluoride in the drinking water, bottled/canned drinks, and most toothpaste, good luck figuring out what’s making you sick.  

It’s truly a marvel we are still sucking air!

Top 80 ways to know viruses are real

Debunking “virology is fraud” arguments

Many today on social media claim viruses don’t exist.

Surprisingly, a few physicians and PhD scientists have joined this chorus.

Some are now even saying DNA is fake.

Are these people correct?

It makes sense to be skeptical of virus claims, especially since the public was lied to extensively about Covid origins, treatments, vaccines, lockdowns, social distancing, masks, and numbers of Covid infections, cases, and deaths, based on misuse of PCR tests among other things.

But a vast amount of data indicates viruses do exist.

Undeniable evidence

Viruses are a fundamental part of our planet’s biology, yet their nature is strange.

A virus is an infectious agent composed of genetic material — either DNA or RNA — enclosed within a protective protein coat called a capsid.

Some viruses are further enveloped in a lipid membrane stolen from the host cell.

They are considered noncellular and are obligate intracellular parasites, meaning they cannot replicate on their own.

Instead, they must hijack the energy and molecular machinery of a living cell to create more copies of themselves.

This unique mode of existence, on the border between living and nonliving, has been demonstrated through more than a century of scientific investigation across numerous fields.

Viruses infect all domains of life — bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes — and display diverse shapes, sizes, and genome types.

Virus-encoded proteins follow a limited set of genome expression “routes” (the Baltimore classes) and are formally classified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). (PMC)

Operational definition
ICTV defines viruses operationally as mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that encode at least one major virion protein forming the particle that packages the genome, or clear descendants of such entities. (ICTV)

Virions and genome types
Virions are nanoscale particles composed of virus-encoded proteins that package genomes made of RNA or DNA, single- or double-stranded. ICTV hosts the official taxonomy browser and Master Species List (MSL) that catalogue this diversity. (ICTV)

Virus taxonomy is hierarchical and genome informed
ICTV now uses a 15-rank hierarchy (from realm to species), aligning with comparative genomics across the virosphere. (Nature)


Key properties of viruses:

  • Submicroscopic size (typically 20–300 nm)
  • Simplified structure (genome + capsid, sometimes an envelope)
  • Obligate dependence on host cells
  • Genetic variation and evolution
  • Production of progeny virions that can infect new cells.
  • Transmission between hosts with high specificity and through various routes (respiratory, fecal-oral, vector borne, etc.).

Below are 80 key lines of evidence, gathered from microscopy, molecular and evolutionary biology, genetics, immunology, and clinical medicine, that build an ironclad case for the existence and nature of viruses.


If just about any one of the 80 peer-reviewed studies or review papers below is true, spanning from Rivers’ 1937 modification of Koch’s postulates to today, it debunks the claim “there are no viruses.”  (See link for article and video)

Covid virus challenges

Researchers also performed two human SARS-CoV-2 virus challenge studies, where volunteers snorted the virus up their nose (self-inoculation) to see if they became infected.

It turns out they did get infected:

1. Safety, tolerability, and viral kinetics (2022)

Summary: This was the first SARS-CoV-2 human challenge study. Healthy, young, seronegative adults were intranasally inoculated with SARS-CoV-2 under controlled quarantine. The study established viral kinetics, safety, and infectivity. It did not include exposing uninfected volunteers to inoculated ones.

Publisher link: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-022-01780-9


2. Local and systemic immune responses (2024)

Summary: This follow-up study profiled immune and epithelial cell responses after controlled intranasal inoculation of healthy, seronegative young adults. It provided detailed cellular and molecular insights, again without person-to-person exposure.

Publisher link: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07575-x


Why are there no volunteer-to-volunteer Covid transmission studies?

It’s mainly an ethics issue:

  1. Ethical barriers: Unlike influenza or rhinovirus studies at the Common Cold Unit, SARS-CoV-2 presents risks of severe or long-term illness, making intentional volunteer-to-volunteer transmission unethical.
  2. Controlled approach: All SARS-CoV-2 human challenge studies to date use direct intranasal inoculation under quarantine to control risks.
  3. Evidence base: To study transmission, researchers rely instead on animal models (ferrets, hamsters, guinea pigs) and observational human data (household studies, outbreak clusters) rather than deliberate person-to-person exposure in healthy volunteers.

Note: Just because viruses exist and can transmit between hosts does not mean government and media are telling you the truth about everything or that Covid is not a bioweapon operation.

CDC VAERS Manipulation Exposed

The CDC’s VAERS Data Manipulation Exposed — A Masterclass in Deception

The CDC just tried to gaslight the American people with a stunningly dishonest analysis of VAERS death reports post-COVID vaccination.

Source: RogerHodkinson

The CDC just tried to gaslight the American people with a stunningly dishonest analysis of VAERS death reports post-COVID vaccination. Here’s the truth they don’t want you to see:

  1. 19,417 DEATHS REPORTED (as of May 2025) — the largest death signal in VAERS history. For context, pre-COVID, VAERS averaged ~400 deaths/year for all vaccines combined.
  2. The CDC’s Sleight of Hand:

– They arbitrarily excluded 5,000+ reports (no records, non-mRNA vaccines, or “not real deaths”).

– Then compared the remaining 12,849 deaths to “background rates” during a pandemic with historic all-cause mortality spikes.

– Conclusion? “Nothing to see here!”

THE PROBLEM? This is scientific fraud.

VAERS is passive reporting—Harvard studies suggest <1% of adverse events are logged. If underreporting is even 10%, the real death toll could be 100,000+.

No control group. Real science compares vaccinated vs. unvaccinated. Instead, the CDC compared deaths after vaccination to deaths during a pandemic—a meaningless distortion.

Autopsies? Ignored. Most post-vax deaths had no forensic investigation. Where’s the data on spike protein-linked clots, myocarditis, or turbo-cancers?

THE BIGGER LIE:

The same officials who say “VAERS can’t prove causation” just used VAERS to “disprove” causation—without a control group. If the system is too flawed to signal risk, it’s too flawed to claim safety.

WHY THIS MATTERS:

– Thousands of families are grieving “sudden” deaths post-vax.

– Doctors were threatened for filing VAERS reports.

– No accountability. Just a corrupt bureaucracy scrubbing data to protect a narrative.

THE BOTTOM LINE:

The CDC’s “analysis” is statistical malpractice. They took a tsunami of red flags and tried to paint it as normal. We deserve real science—not propaganda.  (See link for article and video)

Inform Yourself About Chikungunya

https://jamesroguski.substack.com/p/chikungunya?

Chikungunya

They are at it again! Be prepared. Inform yourself. Be smart. Don’t “bend over” and just take it this time. Please post a link to this article in response to government and media fear-mongering.

 

This article is meant to be a resource center for you to properly inform yourself BEFORE the government, the mainstream media and the alternative media whip up a frenzy of fear-mongering around CHIKV (CHIKungunya Virus).

Please take the time to learn and prepare yourself in advance and don’t fall for the bullshit propaganda this time.

 

According to “experts,” “Chikungunya disease” is marked by severe joint pain, often leading to a stooped or bent-over posture, which is why it’s sometimes referred to as the “bending over” disease. The name “chikungunya” itself comes from the Kimakonde language of Mozambique and means “that which contorts or bends up,” reflecting the characteristic posture of those suffering from the disease’s intense joint pain.

Don’t fall for these lies:

“There is no cure.”

“There is nothing you can do.”

“There is a safe and effective vaccine.”

“Don’t worry, those chemicals we are spraying are safe and effective.”

Don’t “bend over” and take it this time. FIGHT BACK!

THE PROPAGANDA MACHINE IS FOLLOWING THE EXACT SAME GAME PLAN — DO NOT FALL FOR THIS BULLSHIT AGAIN.
Demand to see an isolated Chikungunya virus!!!

  1. Nilavembu Kudineer (see below)

  2. Ginger: The anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties of ginger helps to provide pain relief.

  3. Turmeric: Curcumin, found in turmeric, possesses powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that support the immune system and are also helpful in easing pain. Turmeric is a marvel spice that can fix various diseases from cold and cough to fever and irritation. Having warm turmeric milk twice a day can reduce swelling and function as a safe and natural painkiller.

  4. Coconut water: Coconut water has a very positive effect on the liver, can reduce symptoms and can help in a speedy recovery. Coconut water helps detoxify the body and maintain hydration levels. Drink 3-4 glasses daily.

  5. Holy Basil (Tulsi) leaves:

    Holy Basil helps reduce the body temperature. It contains anti-oxidants that boosts the immune system and helps in quick recovery. One can simply chew holy basil leaves once or twice a day or boil a few basil leaves in water and drink it.

  6. Sunflower seeds and honey: The mixture of powdered sunflower seeds and honey is a great mixture that helps in relieving joint pain. Sunflower seeds are full of Zinc and Vitamin E which are essential for the immune system. Honey is well known for its anti-inflammatory properties.

  7. Herbal Teas:

    • Ginger Tea: Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce joint pain and inflammation.

    • Tulsi (Holy Basil) Water: Tulsi leaves are known for their anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and immune-boosting properties.

    • Turmeric Tea: Turmeric contains curcumin, a potent anti-inflammatory compound that can help reduce joint pain and inflammation. Adding black pepper can enhance the absorption of curcumin.

    • Echinacea, elderberry, green tea, peppermint, and chamomile teas are known to boost the immune system.

  8. Tinospora cordifolia (Giloy-Guduchi): Giloy Juice is a known immune booster. Giloy is recognized for its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and immune-modulatory properties, which can help reduce fever and combat infection, according to Haridwarayurved.com. It can be consumed in the form of juice, powder, or capsules. Many herbal prescriptions for fever have Giloy as an active ingredient. Giloy is anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-pyretic. Giloy can be taken as capsules, powder known as Giloy Satva, or in a juice form.

  9. Dietary Recommendations: A diet rich in fruits (berries, oranges, papaya, guava, kiwi), vegetables (spinach, kale, carrots, broccoli), and lean proteins (chicken, fish, lentils) can help reduce inflammation and boost the immune system.

  10. Avoid Certain Foods: Limit sugary foods, fried and processed foods, and spicy foods, as they can exacerbate inflammation and hinder recovery.

  11. Nutrient-Rich Diet: Include foods rich in vitamins A, C, and E, selenium, chromium, and zinc to support the immune system.

  12. Epsom salt soak: This salt helps ease the pain. Epsom salt contains magnesium sulfate crystals that reduces inflammation and pain. Epsom salt baths can relax muscles and ease joint stiffness and pain. In addition to this, warm water improves blood circulation in the body.

REMOVE STANDING WATER:

Ensure regular cleaning of the standing water in the gutters, buckets, playsets, air conditioning pans or any other place where mosquitoes can breed. Change the water in birdbaths and pools on regular basis to eliminate possible habitats for mosquitoes.

CLOTHING:

Keep yourself covered and minimize skin exposure. Avoid getting bitten which can be done by wearing long sleeves, socks and long pants. Wrap all the gaps in your clothing from where mosquitoes can even get to your skin. Trying staying indoors if and when possible.

White clothing can help repel mosquitoes, or at least make you less attractive to them, according to a study. Mosquitoes are more attracted to certain colors, particularly red, orange, black, and cyan (a blue-green color). Conversely, they tend to ignore colors like white, green, blue, and purple, according to Hawx Pest Control.

MOSQUITO NETTING:

There are an endless number of readily available options.

NATURAL MOSQUITO REPELLANTS:

Make use of NATURAL mosquito repellents both in your environment and applied topically to the skin.

Essential oils like lemon eucalyptus, citronella, and lavender, clove, tea tree, as well as other options like castor oil, cinnamon, and garlic can be used to make sprays or applied directly to the skin.

PLANTS THAT REPEL MOSQUITOES:

Grow plants such as citronella, marigold and lemon grass that contain essential oils and act as natural mosquito repellents. Place them near the windows and doors and see how they will actually shoo away the mosquitoes.

THE PREP ACT DECLARATION:

The PREP Act declaration regarding Nerve Agents and Insecticides:

The declaration states in section I the Secretary’s determination that there is a credible risk that the release of nerve agents or organophosphorus insecticides and the resulting organophosphorus poisoning or the release of carbamate insecticides and the resulting carbamate poisoning may, in the future, constitute a public health emergency.

The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act) authorizes the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to issue a declaration to provide liability immunity to certain individuals and entities (Covered Persons) against any claim of loss caused by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from the administration or use of medical countermeasures (Covered Countermeasures), except for claims that meet the PREP Act’s definition of willful misconduct.

Using this authority, the Secretary is issuing this declaration for medical countermeasures against nerve agents and organophosphorus insecticides that result in organophosphorus poisoning and carbamate insecticides that result in carbamate poisoning.

The first amendment to the PREP Act declaration regarding Nerve Agents and Insecticides:

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/12/23/2022-28013/notice-of-amendment


SUMMARY:

If you are harmed by any covered countermeasures employed against nerve agents and organophosphorus insecticides that result in organophosphorus poisoning, or carbamate insecticides that result in carbamate poisoning that was administered by a “covered person” under the PREP Act declaration, you will NOT be able to file a civil lawsuit seeking damages for any “loss” that you may have suffered due to the use of such “covered countermeasures.”

Mosquito fogging is a method of mosquito control where an insecticide is dispersed as a fine aerosol, or “fog,” to kill adult mosquitoes. This fogging is often done using truck-mounted or handheld machines that release the insecticide in a way that allows it to drift and reach mosquitoes in various locations. The insecticide used in fogging is often pyrethrin or a synthetic pyrethroid, which are designed to target the mosquito’s nervous system.

Organophosphate (OP) insecticides are a class of pesticides used primarily in agriculture and other settings to control insects by disrupting their nervous system.
