Steve Deace just shared a little-known fact about Moderna that will blow your mind. “Moderna had never successfully brought a product to market once as a corporation.” “Until Operation Warp Speed.” “Not one single time.” Yet health officials trusted this company to inject over 200 million doses of this rushed, experimental product into your body.

Covid-era propaganda was even worse than you think. This story will make your blood boil: In 2020, Jeffrey Tucker quickly realized that mainstream reporters had no idea how viruses actually work. So he offered to help. He noticed that reporters didn’t even know the difference between “cases” and “infections.” “They weren’t reporting cases.” “They were reporting infections.” “For a century, we’ve had this clear binary demarcation between infections… and cases.” Infections just mean that “you’ve been exposed,” while cases actually “send you to the hospital.” “But during the Covid period, they smashed them all together.” “Contradicting 100 years of practice, knowledge, and data.” “We don’t even know who’s actually sick or who’s actually getting the smaller degree of infection to train the immune system.” Martin Kulldorff said to him: “I don’t think the reporters are well-trained on simple basics of public health and virology.” So they created the Great Barrington Declaration, which started simply as a “teaching seminar for journalists.” It was intended to teach journalists basic things: “There’s a difference between cases and infections.” “There is such a thing as natural immunity.” “This is a respiratory virus, quickly mutating, and not likely to be something against which we can vaccinate.” “A mask won’t protect you.” “Plexiglass probably makes everything worse.” So he wrote to every journalist he could and invited them to this seminar. “Every reporter at The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal.” And not a single one even responded, let alone showed up.

Andy Schoonover just revealed the dark secret that explains why health insurance costs keep skyrocketing year after year: “The sellers of healthcare, which are big hospital systems, they want the price to go up.” “But very few people understand that the buyers of healthcare, these health insurance plans, they also want the price to go up.” Why? It all goes back to Obamacare. “What happened with the Affordable Care Act is that the insurance providers can only make 15% in profit of your premium.” “So if you have $1,000 of premium, they can only make $150.” “So how do they grow their revenue by 10%, let’s say, so their profit can go from $150 to $165?” “Your premium has to go from $1,000 to $1,100.” “That’s one of the main reasons why they don’t take a very hard negotiating tactic with a lot of these big hospital systems.” “It’s oligopoly versus oligopoly.” “We have no market forces who are trying to push those prices down.” “All the market forces are trying to drive the prices up.” “That’s where we’ve gotten $5,000 MRIs.” “If I went and paid in cash, it would be $400.” “The incentives are screwed up within the system.” So Schoonover built an alternative to the traditional health insurance system. CrowdHealth is a crowdfunding platform for health care costs that has upended this broken incentive system. They already have 30,000 members, and their members pay a fraction of what traditional health insurance costs.
