The “We Can Do This” COVID Public Health ‘Education’ Campaign: Committee makes recommendations

The CDC, unlike other major agencies, has never received full Congressional authorization. There is no single enabling statute that defines the agency’s overall mission and structure. The lack of authorization has blurred the lines on the agency’s responsibilities to lead on issues related to communicable disease, resulted in rampant mission creep, and has led many to question whether the CDC is able to execute on its intended and primary mission of detecting and combatting public health threats, as evidenced by the CDC’s botched handling of the COVID-19 response.

The “We Can Do This”: Covid Public Health ‘Education’ Campaign

In Nevada County we experienced these failed policies in the messaging of our local Health Department, and newly hired Public Health Officer, Dr. Sherilyn Cooke, who unquestionably supported CDC’s faulty science and wouldn’t budge when updated science was presented to them. Instead, there was strict adherence to “science” that turned out to be deeply flawed. The CDC’s failures to update recommendations and guidance, given new information was repeated locally, the messaging being only, “get vaccinated, keep boosting.”

The Use of Public Resources for Campaign Activity or Personal Purposes

I was astonished to learn that our CEO, Alison Lehman, and County Counsel, Kit Elliot, took it upon themselves to transfer $50,000 of public resources to Gina Will’s Campaign Committee, thus circumventing public Board of Supervisor approval and public comment. Since I believe the transfer of funds was potentially illegal, I penned the following letter to our District Attorney’s office.

The Story of Christopher Columbus and the “Columbian Exchange”

In the book The Columbian Exchange: Biological and Cultural Consequences of 1492, Alfred Crosby demonstrates that, while the obvious exchange between the Old World and the New World is its people going back and forth, such a view, which focuses only on the bodies of the people, is very narrow and omits the exchange of the culture of the peoples and the massive biological transfer between the Old and New World.

Auditor-Controller & County Counsel Claiming ‘Privilege’ in Public Records Request

A policy should be created by which all contracts, no matter how small, are submitted to the Board of Supervisors. Furthermore, post all contracts on the County website in a location where the public has easy access. Lastly, when any contract exceeds the agreed-upon price, the Supervisors are notified immediately so it doesn’t get out of hand. Contract management is essential.

Laura Loomer Greeted in Nevada County with Calls for Government Censorship

Local leftists say the quiet part out loud progressively requesting that our local Nevada County supervisors should create a position in the county for when speakers with whom the local organized mob disagree, the community can vote to determine whether such speaker will be permitted to speak.

Nevada County Auditor Gina Will Appointment Similar to Coronation of Kamala Harris

We have sham elections occurring in Nevada County. Despite losing her election for auditor of Nevada County to Rob Tribble and after he was found by the Nevada County Superior Court to lack the statutory qualifications to serve as the auditor, the Nevada County Board of Supervisors appointed his challenger, Gina Will, despite the fact that she only garnered 45% of the County vote and was not chosen by the people of the County and without even considering an open appointment process.

American Exception: Our Illegal Foreign and Domestic Policies

It is clear that the U.S. and its allies were out to sabotage possibilities for peace immediately after the Russian invasion. Were it not for their interference, the current war could have ended in early March 2022. For the sake of Ukraine’s very survival and to avoid a potential nuclear war, the President of the United States has one overriding responsibility: Negotiate!
