This Censorious Pfizer Board Member Was A Major Influence On Lockdowns – The latest of the Twitter Files is reported by Alex Berenson, who was granted access to messaging systems from the times before Elon Musk took over. His first round of reporting concerns the role of Scott Gottlieb, who is a perfect example of an influencer who is technically outside of government but might as well be a powerful official within it.

Gottlieb’s main gig now is as a senior fellow of the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, DC, but he also serves as a board member of Pfizer. Before joining AEI and Pfizer, he headed the Food and Drug Administration under Trump from 2017 to 2019. Before that, he was at Health and Human Services as a member of its Federal Health IT Policy Committee from 2013 to 2017. – READ MORE


Study: Vaxxed Discriminate Against Unvaxxed ‘Free Riders’ Worldwide – In a study recently published in Nature, Danish and Hungarian researchers examined attitudes related to the COVID-19 shots among vaccinated and unvaccinated, respectively, across 21 countries. They concluded that, while the unvaccinated do not reciprocate against the vaccinated, the vaxxed discriminate against the unvaxxed across dozens of countries at levels similar to discrimination against racial minorities – READ MORE


FDA Deviated From Normal Process In Pfizer Vaccine Approval, Documents Show – U.S. drug regulators acknowledged deviating from the normal vaccine approval process when dealing with Pfizer’s COVID-19 shot, according to newly disclosed documents.

Weeks after Pfizer and its partner BioNTech announced they started a rolling submission of documents for approval of their COVID-19 vaccine, a U.S. Food and Drug Administration official penned a memorandum authorizing the release of a Biologics License Application (BLA) number for the shot even as regulators weighed whether to approve the BLA, one of the documents shows. – READ MORE


New Medical Advice for Fat Kids Urges Drugs and Surgery Over Diet and Exercise – Shortly before Christmas, when no one was paying attention, the people who make Hollywood’s latest fave fad diet drug got the green light to give the stuff to fat kids. And as they’ve done during COVID, the American Academy of Pediatrics saluted smartly and promptly switched its fat kid guidance, moving from medical oversight, diet, therapies, and exercise to interventions that doctors and Big Pharma control: surgery and the newly approved drug.

Now, after the American Academy of Pediatrics approved giving the injectable diabetes drug semaglutide, found in Ozempic and Wegovy, to kids, the group has switched its guidance from wait and see, diet and exercise to Defcon 1, surgery, and drugs. – READ MORE


Over 7,000 Unionized Nurses Strike at Two NYC Hospitals — Patients Transferred, Ambulances Diverted – More than 7,000 unionized nurses walked off the job Monday at two of New York City’s largest hospitals after negotiations stalled over the weekend.

Big American farm sounds the alarm: Livestock numbering in millions could soon ‘starve to death’ – Complications from extreme winter weather conditions are at least partly to blame for a feed crisis confronting California-based poultry producer Foster Farms.

The shortage of feed — which it blamed on Union Pacific rail delivery failures — imperiled both chickens and cattle, the company said in a Dec. 29 petition to the Service Transportation Board for emergency assistance. – READ MORE


Biden’s War on Cooks: President Moves To Ban Gas Stoves – The Biden administration is considering banning gas stoves over concerns that they release toxic pollutants harmful to people’s health.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission will open public comment this winter on the health risks of gas stoves as the agency looks to better regulate the kitchen appliance, commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. told Bloomberg News. – READ MORE


Welcomed with Open Arms: Lobbyists for China’s TikTok Have Repeatedly Visited the Biden White House – Lobbyists for the China-owned app TikTok and its parent company ByteDance have repeatedly landed visits with President Joe Biden’s White House, according to recently revealed records.

TikTok and ByteDance lobbyists have visited the Biden White House at least eight times between July 2021 and August 2022, according to White House visitor records obtained by the Washington Examiner. – READ MORE


The Danger of TikTok: Study Shows Social Media Use Changes the Brains of Teenagers – A recent study by psychologists shows that the regular use of social media is linked to changes in the brains of teenagers. This is especially troubling in light of the fact that the most popular social media platform for American teenagers is China’s TikTok, which pushes harmful messaging on teens as soon as they sign up for an account.

The effects of social media on children’s developing brains has long been a topic of concern for parents and policymakers. Now, the New York Times reports that a new study by neuroscientists at the University of North Carolina has shed some light on the issue, using brain scans to track the effects of social media use on middle school students aged 12 to 15, a period of rapid brain development. – READ MORE


WEF Creep Yuval Noah Harari: Humans May Need to ‘Relearn How to See and Walk’ in ‘Virtual Reality’ Future – Historian, futurist, and noted WEF creep Yuval Noah Harari speculated that human beings may need to “relearn how to see and walk” in a virtual reality future divorcing people from the “physical and biological” world during a discussion with podcaster Tom Bilyeu published on Tuesday.

Harari, an author and World Economic Forum (WEF) adviser, emphasized humanity’s capacity for change and abstract thinking in his contemplation of a technologically-driven paradigm shift in the human condition with the framework of virtual reality. – READ MORE


Researchers Could Track the GPS Location of All of California’s New Digital License Plates – A team of security researchers managed to gain “super administrative access” into Reviver, the company behind California’s new digital license plates which launched last year. That access allowed them to track the physical GPS location of all Reviver customers and change a section of text at the bottom of the license plate designed for personalized messages to whatever they wished, according to a blog post from the researchers.

“An actual attacker could remotely update, track, or delete anyone’s REVIVER plate,” Sam Curry, a bug bounty hunter, wrote in the blog post. Curry wrote that he and a group of friends started finding vulnerabilities across the automotive industry. That included Reviver. – READ MORE
