The Bird Flu: Should we be exterminating the entire flock?
Currently, USDA policy is to cull chickens as the only response to the bird flu. In the last twenty-four months 166 million birds have been killed. However, a very small percentage of these chickens actually had the flu or were even showing symptoms. The protocol has been to kill the entire flock, horribly, by foam suffocation. The policy is, if one or two chickens on your farm shows any trace of bird flus from a PCR test, then automatically, all your chickens are killed. The problem with the PCR test is that there are many false positives.

The Shifting Sands of Power: From Elites to Trump and the People
In the United States, the balance of power has historically oscillated between various groups, shaped by economic, political, and social forces. One of the most dramatic shifts in recent times occurred with the election of Donald Trump in 2016, and again recently in 2024, which many interpret as a significant realignment from traditional power structures dominated by elites and bureaucracy to a more populist, people-centric model.

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.
