Dr. Malone, a very close friend of mine just went through a terrible bout of blood clotting. He received two shots of the Pfizer vaccine back in 2020-2021. He has made it through so far but the interesting part is that every doctor he saw over his 21 days in the ICU, asked him if he had received any Covid vaccines. It's a little late to be asking that question now isn't it?
I feel there actually has to be caution in releasing what they know. Makary and RFK are relatively silent on the subject. I have to believe there is a reason, and it probably has something to do with "slow and steady as she goes "
I must add a question, have you met those who revere Fauci for the "vaccine," but hate Trump for Operation Warp Speed. For those of you who wonder, I really think Trump is proud of OWS because it broke the world hysteria about Covid. A change in administrations and agendas launched the mandates, which was the true globalist agenda. Can you even imagine what they'd be saying if the vaccine manufacturers launched a campaign about Trump being the only one who stood in the way of vaccine development?
I donโt hate Trump for OWS, because he was surrounded by bad people, but with all the evidence coming out, to continue advocating for it is no longer ignorance. Heโs a bit busy with a plethora of issues facing America, so I do not expect him to dive deep into that issue right nowโthe Democrats are in constant war mode against our Republic, so yeah, heโs a bit preoccupied.
Honestly, we think this is a case of MUCH BETTER late than never. Maybe our message is finally getting out and people who (maybe) knew all along are asking the right questions at last.
Yes, it's too little and it's late. But think about all the too little too lates throughout history, some of which took WAY LONGER to be realized as truth:
* Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine (and lots of other things) can treat COVID.
* Most childhood diseases were on the wane before vaccines arrived and generally are treatable.
* Smoking causes cancer.
* Lobotomy destroys the brain.
* Handwashing is necessary before delivering babies.
* The earth is round.
* The earth revolves around the sun.
* and on and on.
Most people purveying the above ideas were dismissed, financially destroyed, or even killed. Eventually, the ideas were excepted as "of course that's true."
So let's celebrate every win and keep working hard to spread truth like a virus until everyone is infected with it.
It depends on where you live!! Most of what I hear (I work in a community hospital in a blue State) are the doctors occasionally mentioning long Covid, but even bringing up the jab is a point of no return and still likely a threat on their careers depending on the receptiveness of the patient. Now programmed AI for those who are even curious is a whole new problem. Putting out the unsupported information without personal investment.
We all need to keep perspective on what the democrats are all about. Just look at the blue states and the blue cities theyโre an economic crime ridden mess and thatโs what will happen federally if they win the midterms. Trump is a lion willing to put his life on the line to keep this country from allowing this communist revolution a foothold. You can say what you want about him but he is fighting the Bolsheviks. If the republicans and their voters allow the house and senate to go full blown communist Trump will be impeached, he will be prosecuted and jailed, the filibuster will be overturned, the Supreme Court will be packed with democrats, the borders will be opened, free speech will be gone, taxes on wealth will be put in place, property taxes will rise, all energy cost will go through the roof, people will be jailed for political reasons, and generally government will crush prosperity. just look at blue cities and states, itโs all lies. Obama and Biden did such damage to this country wait until you see what happens if the democrats take control of all three levers of power. We may never come back.
Happy Spring everyone! Today in Central Wisconsin we are expecting a high of 59 and tomorrow 72 degrees. Just a few days ago we had 18 inches of snow and a high of 22 degrees. a lot of snow still needs to melt. I felt all of my 75 years snow throwing and shoveling in stages. What a hard winter it has been. looking forward to e-bike rides again.
Re: " How lunch was done before fast food joints" = We still eat in or by the car when we travel. for years when we did trade shows we drove and would go to a grocery store to buy good bread, cold, cuts tomatoes, etc. to make our lunches. Today the fast food is so terrible and expensive we still do it when we go on long drives.
One of my "isms" - I'd be dead if it wasn't for milk and peanut butter.
Car trips, Mtn hikes, Ski days - ya know, ski jackets are made with big interior pockets, cause many of us, are packing a PBnJ. Mine have an extra kick - butter. I do the same as did my Gaelic speaking gmom, who lived to 102 btw. She didn't understand my mother's instructions, "Make PBnJ for the kids". Gmoms rendition: butter, jelly, peanut butter. Try it, it's yummy. Swabbie -go east for still good ski conditions, perfect, in the low 30's.. I'm heading to NH, tomorrow.
Always a PBnJ fan. I don't eat as much bread these days, but sometimes PBnJ on a Bays English Muffin. Always get organic peanut butter that I have to blend in the oil. As to going East to ski. Just NO! I have had enough winter this year for several winters.
Oh my gosh. President Trump's statement about Japan cracked us up! I really love his sense of humor. But no one makes me laugh more than Senator Kennedy of Louisiana and I bet he laughed until he cried when he heard it!
That 103-year-old lady gets up every morning to tend her garden. I wonder what she's growing? Maybe potatoes, maybe some greens to feed the chickens that provide her eggs. Certainly not ground beef or bacon that we saw on her plate. (I have always wanted to produce in my garden all the parts of the BLT I crave in the summer, but those bits of bacon I plant have never yielded anything!) I'm not at all afraid of the good things in her diet, but I would add some salad and vegetables to avoid "boring." We have several varieties of lettuce in our sunporch, ready to put out in our container garden with a frost cover for the few cold nights left - now that Spring is here. Real food for thought; real food for health.
I assumed that sheโs growing flowers. I love my fruits and veggies, and I think thereโs no harm in that, but I do eat whole eggs every day! And Iโm growing lots of veggies this year. The real cause of all the obesity and chronic disease has been ultra processed foods, not people eating more veggies. I think variety is good. A nutritionist I used to work for said to spread your poisons around. Variety gives more variety of nutrients and reduces toxins that could be present in any food. However, a lot of her advice is good, especially to forgive.
I fully support what Trump is doing domestically but Iโm having a really hard time getting behind this war in Iran. With all the neocons having said Iran is an imminent threat my whole adult life, Israel going rogue with their bombings, innocent children being targeted and a military hero and Gold star husband having his character attacked without any evidence of his wrongdoing. How do we not trust the FBI when it goes after Trump when he goes against the neocons but trust it when they go after Kent? Iโm totally confused how people come to their conclusions. But I love my fellow Americans and honestly seek the truth.
I'm thinking Kent, has patriotically taken this risk to himself, to help us, to help Pres. Trump. Praying this weekend, we'll hear a lot more (already heard it the day after Tucker's chat) of talk of separating from Israels's goals. Our goals are very different from Israels. *Day after the chat, on Newsmax, I think it was in the morning, Gen Blaine Holt, stated he's respecting Kent 2x's more. I noticed Greg Kelly's evening shows do not bring on Gen Holt as they usually do. Greg (one of my favs on Newsm) has been over-bashing Kent. Greg may also be pulling back already, he did so, slightly, last night. We'll see. Kent/Tucker have bravely moved the needle, that's one thing for sure - bringing the focus back to OUR economic stability, the future of the $.
I believe that Trump trying to pinch off China oil while he can. I believe this is the main reason for the Iran attack to be happening as it has. And he is dependent upon Israeli intelligence for targeting, which is why he cooperates with Israel, though he has been angry at Netanyahu numerous times, and for good reason.
Trump sees himself as cutting off a near future war with China in the Pacific over Taiwan and many other nations.
This is why I'm not opposing the Iran action, even though I instinctively don't like it.
I share many of your thoughts & concerns, Lisa, & try to weigh everything that is going on. Just this morning, I received this from the political commentator, Brigitte Gabriel, founder of Act for America. She is originally from Lebanon & knows what it is like to live with this form & level of terrorism....https://actforamerica.substack.com/p/the-face-of-true-evil?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
I had a recollection from childhood about restrooms. On a trip with parents in the late fifties on a two lane highway somewhere in Alabama wilderness. A gas station appeared. It was rough but you know, when you gotta go, you... - So dad pumps gas and I get the restroom key - remember those on the large paddle? I open the door to a tiled closet. The first thing I noticed was the aroma of a mixture of cleaning fluid and urine.
The second thing I noticed was the sign over the toilet:
If it's yellow let it mellow, if it's brown flush it down.
I remember the signs: If itโs yellow let it mellow; If itโs brown, flush it down. I seem to recall that was happening in the 1970โs? I donโt remember if this was a โdonโt waste water campaignโ, or what was happening back then. But, now in our county, the county has posted water restrictions in the city of Elizabeth, CO, since we are officially in drought conditions. I believe county commissioners, & greedy developers, have gone too far allowing high-density, cracker-box homes to be built!
If I had to guess it was either water problem or septic. And yes, greedy deveolopers and politicians and the snakes who get themselves in positions of power are not the least bit interested in long term consequences. Always follow the money.
Some of these were great, others not so much. NATO? What happened to the promise made by Clinton that NATO would not expand one inch more to the east? Yet it has expanded over 1000 miles so it's practically on Russia's doorstep. Iran? If we weren't there meddling, they wouldn't even look in our direction. When things got bad for the American Colonies, we rose up and claimed our liberty; others can do the same without our interference. We are in yet another regime-change war and yet we have the audacity to howl about foreign influences in our own government? What hypocrisy!
The images in that 103 y.o. woman's video didn't match the dialogue--red potatoes were yellow, bacon and toast on her breakfast plate. LOL! But I agree with her. I, too, even as a vegetarian, eat eggs, potatoes, and butter, and have drunk raw milk for my whole life. I couldn't agree more about ignoring "nutritionists"! I've found the best way to know if I'm eating healthy is to listen to my body. That said, genetics make a huge difference.
Can't hang the groundhog yet! Six weeks is the first day of spring. He didn't lie, he just didn't say the weather would be good! (But here in Maine, despite the low temperatures, the sun is shining and the ground is thawing.)
Just so there is a dissenting voice, I dont agree with your opinion about Iran, and strongly so. They absolutely would not have left us alone. Would they have attacked us if they had the element of surprise and a proxy to launch the drones, ABSOLUTELY. You dont make public calls for an end of Judaism and western civilization, build the world's second largest arsenal, and then sit on your hands. Those of you who just think this was a globalist/CIA regime change are not looking or thinking clearly even 1 or two years in the future. If Obama and Biden and likely Bush were financing Iran, there was a future reason. They are sinister, silent and patient. Look at our schools. A different subject, some say?
Watched that AI 103 year old lady and I hate the waiting myself. Iโm retired and waiting for my wife to call it which is very difficult because it has my life on hold. Iโm being called selfish and impatient over this and I maybe am but I donโt want what is planned to not happen. Itโs true none of us know if tomorrow ever comes. When we close our eyes each night tomorrow isnโt guaranteed. Iโm at a tough point here in my life right now and her time frame is making me wait and my life feels on hold. I of course want to do what we have planned together but like Tom Petty said. The waiting is the hardest part. It sure ainโt easy. Happy Friday all. Needed that.
One activity that you may enjoy in the meantime is being a tutor for the Literacy Volunteers of America. I did this for a couple of years & tutored English As A Second Language as well as Basic Adult English. Not sure where you live, but there is likely a chapter (or a similar organization) in your area. Most libraries know of a local chapter. It was very rewarding & I got very creative with my lesson plans. You may no longer feel as if you are waiting for some future trip, but for the next opportunity to meet with your student. Just an idea....
32ยฐ here in East Tennessee. I love Spring it's my favorite time of year I have renewed energy I'm actually excited about gardening I find myself trying to rush it ๐. Being from California I didn't get the whole seasonal thing but, I do now and it's wonderful
Interesting times we are living in nowadays. Trying to determine which state is better than Virginia in terms of taxes and freedoms; yet, allows us to be a one day drive (8 hours or so) from MA, which is where son and grandchildren live. Everything north on the east coast is not an improvement. The dilemma continues with the redistricting vote by 21 April having the potential to make it much worse if it's passed . . .
I moved from New Jersey to Virginia, out of the frying pan and into the fire. However, my property taxes are only $800 per year instead of $5000 for the house I used to live in, and many people there pay $10-$20K. At least I can afford to retire here. Republicans here are fighting back. People have to vote no on the illegal gerrymandering the Dems are trying to implement. If they succeed, this will become a one-party state like California.
I live in Cyprus, famed Greek island for sun, sea and sand, and as I read your funnies I could see the lightning and hear the thunder. I could also hear the sound of the rain as it sheets down. Happy spring.
Those are my favourite months too, but it will soon be down hill and by mid-May the temperature here will be very close to 100+F and climbing, it will not let up then until the back end of September.
Regarding your comments about spring: When I was in grade school back in the 1950's we had a music class once a week. One song we sang was "The Song of the Happy Farmer". I've always remembered the first few lines.
"With joy I sing,
the miracle of spring
the promise true
of life anew
the warm days bring."
(Daffodils aside, up here in Vermont, it's not so much April and May as May and June.)
We didn't go to the movies often when I was a child. But as soon as "Patton" came to the theater, my widowed mother took us kids to see it...with the same sturdy patriotism she showed a few years later, when she came home from church on Sunday and immediately turned on the TV (which she never did) to watch the hockey "miracle on ice" of the 1980 Winter Olympics. Would that we could all cherish and coallesce around this gift of God called the USA.
I will never see Newsom and Walz the same way again..I can't unsee that ๐๐
03/20/26: I KNEW their sex-change operations would end up with something like this!
Haha indeed! ๐๐
03/20/26: And we thought that lesbian WITCHES on broomsticks were bad!
Haha for real!
Saw a bumper sticker yesterday that said "They didn't burn witches, they burned women!" I thought to myself, she sounds fun.
Fake Crusader and Boy Blunder.
or Boy Blubber
Yep, that one got me really laughing ๐คฃ
Yaaaa, their juxtaposition was apt.
Dr. Malone, a very close friend of mine just went through a terrible bout of blood clotting. He received two shots of the Pfizer vaccine back in 2020-2021. He has made it through so far but the interesting part is that every doctor he saw over his 21 days in the ICU, asked him if he had received any Covid vaccines. It's a little late to be asking that question now isn't it?
Doctors admitting the truth without admitting the truth.
03/20/26: Yes. It's closing the barn door after the Fauci has escaped.
Make no mistake. As horrifying as it sounds, to many RFK is the new purveyor of "misinformation," while Fauci occupies the throne of a hero.
I feel there actually has to be caution in releasing what they know. Makary and RFK are relatively silent on the subject. I have to believe there is a reason, and it probably has something to do with "slow and steady as she goes "
Agreed. With that many rats onboard such a big ship, the cleaning process needs to be methodical, not rushed.
As there are still folks who think the world is flat
His dividend checks
I must add a question, have you met those who revere Fauci for the "vaccine," but hate Trump for Operation Warp Speed. For those of you who wonder, I really think Trump is proud of OWS because it broke the world hysteria about Covid. A change in administrations and agendas launched the mandates, which was the true globalist agenda. Can you even imagine what they'd be saying if the vaccine manufacturers launched a campaign about Trump being the only one who stood in the way of vaccine development?
Trump took the jabs himself. And his warp speed involved many parameters of COVID response. So I excuse his non medically educated, self consistency.
There is no excuse for Fauci throughout the entirety of his career.
I donโt hate Trump for OWS, because he was surrounded by bad people, but with all the evidence coming out, to continue advocating for it is no longer ignorance. Heโs a bit busy with a plethora of issues facing America, so I do not expect him to dive deep into that issue right nowโthe Democrats are in constant war mode against our Republic, so yeah, heโs a bit preoccupied.
My GP keeps trying to sell that poison. But heโs gotten accustomed to my rejections. Financial incentives I guess.
Honestly, we think this is a case of MUCH BETTER late than never. Maybe our message is finally getting out and people who (maybe) knew all along are asking the right questions at last.
Yes, it's too little and it's late. But think about all the too little too lates throughout history, some of which took WAY LONGER to be realized as truth:
* Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine (and lots of other things) can treat COVID.
* Most childhood diseases were on the wane before vaccines arrived and generally are treatable.
* Smoking causes cancer.
* Lobotomy destroys the brain.
* Handwashing is necessary before delivering babies.
* The earth is round.
* The earth revolves around the sun.
* and on and on.
Most people purveying the above ideas were dismissed, financially destroyed, or even killed. Eventually, the ideas were excepted as "of course that's true."
So let's celebrate every win and keep working hard to spread truth like a virus until everyone is infected with it.

Have him file a VAERS report FOR SURE, AND get ahold of React19, a group of vaccine injured people, sourcing help and support.
It depends on where you live!! Most of what I hear (I work in a community hospital in a blue State) are the doctors occasionally mentioning long Covid, but even bringing up the jab is a point of no return and still likely a threat on their careers depending on the receptiveness of the patient. Now programmed AI for those who are even curious is a whole new problem. Putting out the unsupported information without personal investment.
I am happy to hear a report of 100% of hospital physician staff to be facing the truth.
We all need to keep perspective on what the democrats are all about. Just look at the blue states and the blue cities theyโre an economic crime ridden mess and thatโs what will happen federally if they win the midterms.

37 in Milford, Pa; I so long for warmer weather, but am glad I no longer live in the communist State of Virginia!
PA is better?
Not from what I've seen!
PA's G Shapiro is trying to take PA down similarly, to VA's Spanberger. But in PA we've got the Senate, 27R to 23D.
Pa does not have personal property tax and does not tax retirement income.
Interesting times we are living in nowadays. Trying to determine which state is better than Virginia in terms of taxes and freedoms; yet, allows us to be a one day drive (8 hours or so) from MA, which is where son and grandchildren live.

PA does not tax retirement income, which is a plus.
Pennsylvania may well be worse.
Not since VA got their new nut job Gov.
I moved from New Jersey to Virginia, out of the frying pan and into the fire. However, my property taxes are only $800 per year instead of $5000 for the house I used to live in, and many people there pay $10-$20K. At least I can afford to retire here. Republicans here are fighting back. People have to vote no on the illegal gerrymandering the Dems are trying to implement. If they succeed, this will become a one-party state like California.
I live in Cyprus, famed Greek island for sun, sea and sand, and as I read your funnies I could see the lightning and hear the thunder. I could also hear the sound of the rain as it sheets down. Happy spring.
Those are my favourite months too, but it will soon be down hill and by mid-May the temperature here will be very close to 100+F and climbing, it will not let up then until the back end of September.
Regarding your comments about spring: When I was in grade school back in the 1950's we had a music class once a week. One song we sang was "The Song of the Happy Farmer". I've always remembered the first few lines.
"With joy I sing,
the miracle of spring
the promise true
of life anew
the warm days bring."
(Daffodils aside, up here in Vermont, it's not so much April and May as May and June.)
Good Morning Dr. Malone - I only got to the first cartoon before immediately deciding to attach Jeff Childers CoffeeandCovid. It made me Laugh Out Loud !! " linking the โOkayโ sign with violent white-nationalist extremism." https://coffeeandcovid.substack.com/p/contaminated-friday-march-20-2026?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
Coffee and Covid is such a great read!
The Best !!
We didn't go to the movies often when I was a child. But as soon as "Patton" came to the theater, my widowed mother took us kids to see it...with the same sturdy patriotism she showed a few years later, when she came home from church on Sunday and immediately turned on the TV (which she never did) to watch the hockey "miracle on ice" of the 1980 Winter Olympics. Would that we could all cherish and coallesce around this gift of God called the USA.
