Consider reading this incredibly prophetic novel The Fifth Sacred Thing. Released in 1993... The story...The US is being controlled by the use of a virus, that requires a vaccine that can only be obtained by those who obey the "laws" of those ruling the country. It is a riveting book, all the more so at this moment in our history.

The Fifth Sacred Thing. (New York, Bantam, 1993) Starhawk’s epic tale, set in 2048, California. In a time of ecological collapse, when the hideously authoritarian and corporate-driven Stewards have taken control of most of the land and set up an apartheid state, one region has declared itself independent: the Bay Area and points north. Choosing life over guns, they have created a simple but rich ecotopia, where no one wants, nothing is wasted, culture and cooperation are uppermost, and the Four Sacred Things are valued unconditionally.

But the Stewards are on the march northward, bent on conquest and appropriation of the precious waters. It’s the love story of Bird the musician and warrior and Madrone the healer, and of Maya, Bird’s grandmother, ninety-eight year old story teller, whose vision provides a way for them to defend their city from invasion without becoming what they are fighting against.

Hi James, I see that you are on Substack, along with many other people I follow. Sorry to say, living on Social Security I cannot afford to pay for subscriptions (and all the other constant requests for money made by very worthy causes. As it is, I am currently supporting Kennedy as I feel able. That is all I can manage for now. I do really appreciate your article above though. Glad to know about you and your work! Read the book! It was hard to imagine 30 years ago, that this would come to be so close to the truth of what we are now seeing emerge in the world. May the New Year bring an explosion of people waking up and seeing the light of truth.

These GoF researchers are so deeply confused it's beyond comprehension..... I mean of All the various enterprises to commit oneself to??? These are very capable individuals with highly developed minds that could have done any number of jobs that would have benefited mankind and life.. but to spend your life creating these Frankenstein formulations like the Covid Death Vax - Bio Weapon, that must have taken years to develop??? This is the very same mindset that executes Psyops and develops more and more advanced Weapons systems... The Military/Industrial/Pharmaceutical/Governmental complex must be dismantled..

We have got to get Nuremberg rolling to really clean up this mess..

The World not just America needs RFK Jr's leadership... We have to Regain our sanity.. as a Species..

God Bless RFK Jr in this quest... for the White House...Together We Can change this World...

COVID was NOT a "Lab leak." It was deliberately introduced as an act of genocide.

Collins and Fauci demonstrate an incredibly dangerous combination of hubris, stupidity, and contempt for any concept of morality. Since the administrative side of our national scientific apparatus appears to breed this type of individual almost exclusively, a hard stop on all gain of function research should be instituted.

Right on!! Thank-you for writing this. I'm grateful for the courage you and many other medical people have shown in speaking out about this. And I'm delighted with RFK Jr.'s unequivocal position against this needless and dangerous research.

Absolutely. Not mentioned was the Obama ban on G-o-F research but may have excluded ongoing research as with Wuhan. Trump came into office and lifter the ban but Obama seemed to helped prepare the way for him. Not mentioned are all the other bioweapons labs of the US in other countries such as the Ukraine which has over a dozen funded/run by the US. Just as Israel is used to side step US regulations on bioweapons and nuclear weaponry, it also uses other States to do the same.

Look into what Katherine Watt (Bailiwick News) has researched.

It's all about the way the laws have been changed since 1983 "to set up legal conditions in which all governing power in the United States could be automatically transferred from the citizens and the three Constitutional branches into the two hands of the Health and Human Services Secretary, effective at the moment the HHS Secretary himself declared a public health emergency, legally transforming free citizens into enslaved subjects."

From American Domestic Bioterrorism Program (https://bailiwicknews.substack.com/p/american-domestic-bioterrorism-program) :

> In other words: Congress and US Presidents legalized and funded the overthrow of the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. government and the American people, through a massive domestic bioterrorism program relabeled as a public health program, conducted by the HHS Secretary and Secretary of Defense on behalf of the World Health Organization and its financial backers.

sadly, this is not terribly shocking... "a republic if you can keep it" indeed.

It was NOT a Lab Leak Kennedy-YOU ARE LYING!

IT WAS A DELIBERATE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DEVELOPMENT, AS WAS THE BIOWEAPON JAB, AND YOU KNOW IT! STOP SHILLING FOR YOUR CIA/MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX BACKERS AS YOU DO FOR THE PSYCHOTIC ZIONIST US/ISRAELI GENOCIDERS AND MASS CHILD SACRIFICERS!

YOU ARE A FRAUD AND A CONMAN.

Consider that, if GoF work is banned, they can't claim to have made a mistake. So working toward getting a ban passed (while also pursuing legal prosecution) makes sense.

Sad, but you're on the case. I once supported Kennedy, but after he quoted and re-quoted the Zionist script on Israel, I question everything. He defends children's health at home but supports the slaughter of thousands of Palestinian children. Something is very wrong with this picture. The image of a Deep State shill is emerging.

I'm so with you on this. He says that he can't get boomers to support his campaign cuz we're all watching MSNBC. Nope. Not even close. No MSM for us in several years now. Independent sources only. Many of us started out as RFK Jr. supporters. Doing exactly as you said is how he turned us off. Lots of us now. Very sad.

Banning GoF research makes good sense, no argument there.

That said, the characterization as a ‘leak’ is presumptive and seems to be founded on a premise that assumes an accident of some kind. If there is proof somewhere that decisively points to an accident versus a more intentional act, then let’s have it. Thus far, that case hasn’t been proven. Characterization as a ‘leak’ preempts consideration of other very real possibilities. I would offer that it is more useful to frame this as ‘lab-origin’ instead of ‘lab-leak’.
