I, of course, favor zealots, but those are hard to come by, and harder for the Senate to confirm. But to his great credit, I've never thought Dr. Bhattacharya was lying to us, and I don't see in him a man who'd seek "quick and devastating takedowns" of those with whom he disagrees.

I put it all together in a written message to both of my senators on February 4th of this year. It's been nearly a year since I abandoned hope (and communication) with my US rep's office. I hope this will eventually become plain for officials at all levels to see.

<< I’m in my late 50s, and I sometimes wish I could go for a week without hearing some implicit or explicit reference to events in Europe over 80 years ago. Yet those events long ago, marked by the deaths of at least tens of millions, remain a part of the modern daily conversation. I suggest that in the COVID era, we are seeing the greatest set of crimes in human history, set in motion at least in part by our own federal government. Sound ridiculous?

The CIA has reportedly recently joined the FBI and Department of Energy in acknowledging the likely lab origins of COVID-19. Earlier in the pandemic, countless people around the world were ridiculed, smeared, discredited, censored, sidelined, terminated, etc., for making this assertion. Here is the picture that is emerging despite the best efforts of government and media at narrative control:

a) American taxpayer funds WERE applied to gain-of-function research at WIV.

b) Anthony Fauci lied to Senator Rand Paul during Senate committee testimony when he denied funding gain-of-function research at WIV.

c) FBI, DoE, and now CIA have concluded that, Fauci’s assertions and the Proximal Origin paper notwithstanding, the outbreak DID originate from the Wuhan lab.

d) In response to the pandemic resulting from this lab leak, BILLIONS (!!!) of people around the world have willingly or unwillingly been subjected to new “vaccine” technologies developed at “warp speed.”

e) High rates of excess mortality and disability remain extant, mostly NOT due to COVID. Doctors in the US and around the world are reportedly “baffled” by sharp increases in peri/myocarditis, blood clots, aggressive cancers, neurological disorders, sudden deaths, etc.

f) The WHO for years now has vigorously sought treaty powers that, as Senator Paul wrote in his book, “Deception: The Great COVID Cover-up,” “…subvert our national autonomy and make us answerable to international health edicts.” (p 392)

I have watched in horror for five years now as governments have rolled out tyranny using a manufactured catastrophe as pretext. I am aware of a few researchers who have attempted to identify global excess mortality resulting from COVID-19 vaccination. Denis Rancourt. Edward Dowd. Steve Kirsch. With some variation, these place the number in the millions or tens of millions. But who can know for sure? Our federal “health” bureaucracies have doubled, tripled, quadrupled down on their assertions that the mRNA vaccines are “safe and effective.” At least until very recently, these advocated the injection of infants as young as 6 months old. Heartbreaking. Ever hear of Kevin McKernan’s peer-reviewed and published research showing widespread DNA contamination in the vaccine vials? Claims that this DNA contamination can insinuate itself into the human genome? The effects of these injections may be with us for generations to come. Governments persist.

I have noted in previous communication that I had a copy of RFK Jr’s “The Wuhan Cover-up” sent to your office in xxxxxx. I had little hope that this would actually be passed on and read, but my act was more of a statement than anything else. I wonder how many of the senators currently casting aspersions onto RFK Jr during his confirmation process have actually read what he wrote in his last two books. There are pages and pages of footnotes for any researcher willing to check his claims. I have little awareness that anyone has dared to challenge him on specific details, or to file suit against him. They prefer broad smears instead.

In the last 5 years, I count only two senators who’ve made any meaningful stand against what the federal government has done to the American people: Senators Rand Paul and Ron Johnson. The latter held at least two hearings related to COVID vaccine issues. To the best of my knowledge, Senator Roger Marshall was the only member of Congress to show up, and for only the second hearing at that. Marjorie Taylor Greene and a mere handful of others in the House have shown bravery and fierce advocacy for the people, against government abuses, and against the Biden administration’s vigorous attempts to cede sovereignty via treaty to the WHO.

I think it’s way past time that legislators, whose role is identified in Article I of the Constitution as representing We the People, start acting in the best interests of their constituents, rather than those of corporate (Pharma) or internationalist (UN/WHO/WEF/Gates Foundation) entities.

I hope that Trump’s second administration, characterized in these early stages by renewed vigor and increased transparency, will root out the harmful elements within the federal agencies. I urge you to assist in defunding those harmful elements and holding those who have betrayed the American people to account. These COVID crimes have occurred on the watch of the 116th, 117th, 118th, and now 119th Congresses. Sadly, these may be inescapable topics of discussion some 80 years in the future, if we don’t do ourselves in before then, or if a digitally administered Orwellian Ministry of Truth prevents us from discussing them freely.>>

Remember when we discovered thru FOIA that Collins and Fauci deemed Drs Bhattacharya, Kuldorff and Gupta as “fringe epidemiologists” and worthy of a “swift take down”?

Is it not remarkable that no one is talking of that now?

When that email came to my attention and became public to anyone who good dig into information, my level of “radicalization” and anger went straight up. We know all about corruption and the admin state and deep state, etc., but Fauci and Collins showed the utter depravity of those in power who hold a public trust. Jay is a great guy and very smart and centered. He got shown his own files by Elon. He went to Tallahassee and had a great talk with DeSantis. I signed the Great Barrington Declaration just days after its publication.

I am looking forward, but I want those who took my rights away to pay some price for what they did and how they did it.

I guess I want to rub their noses in the shot of the Diamond Princess and the Santa Clara seroprevalence study.

Unfortunately and unbelievably Fauci is now at Georgetown as a Distinguished University Professor in the School of Medicine and the McCourt School of Public Policy, receiving accolades such as "Students like Manya Reddy (C’26), a member of Georgetown’s Emergency Response Medical Service team, have felt inspired after meeting with Fauci and hearing him reflect on his career and “He is just this larger-than-life figure when you think about his public health impact, but when you sit down with him to have a conversation, he feels like someone you’ve known your whole life and he makes you feel so special,” said Umayr Shaikh (M’26), a third-year student in the School of Medicine.

“His visit was an inspiring opportunity for members to gain firsthand insights from one of the most influential figures in modern health care,” Reddy said after Fauci spoke to the emergency response group on Jan. 24.

Empiracal truth that indeed the for-profit members of Big Pharma/Big Medicine and Big Insecticide/Herbicide control the NIH, FDA, and CDC narrative aka “fascism” which is corporate/government/authoritarian form of government that operates/operated within our constitutional republic. Perhaps analogous to the CIA behaving as a “government within a government” (ie JFK, RFK, MLK, 9/11 events).

I had read a previous article on Malone News where dr. Robert Malone suggested contacting our senators advising them to support Dr. Bhattacharya. I immediately followed through and after seeing this article and the 'hearing' clips, I am really glad I did. I hope this doctor is part of the NIH and can help 'Bobby" get our helathcare system on track. Thank you again, Dr. Malone for your valuable information that I would not other wise be aware.

_When further questioned about the link between autism and vaccination, he remarked, “I don’t generally believe there is a link, based on my review of the literature.” He then added that the NIH should fund research to prove or disprove the theory conclusively._

I'm so glad Trump mentioned investigating the cause of autism in his address to Congress.

If you've read Toby Roger's dissertation, it's overwhelmingly clear that vaccines are driving autism: https://ses.library.usyd.edu.au/bitstream/handle/2123/20198/Rogers_T_thesis.pdf

It'll be very interesting to see what MAHA, NIH, Jay, Bobby et al disclose regarding autism.

It’s right for him to be cautious as the confirmation of a link of autism and allergies to vaccines in general. The adjuvant of aluminum in certain vaccines seem to have a link for sure, but truth in science will tell us. Fauci and Collins were completely compromised or just terrible at their jobs.

That’s a good practice, but we need in-depth research to know why children, infants and toddlers, display irreversible autism right after vaccination. Parents have been screaming for their children's protection for years, and to know that 1970 autism was 1 in 10,000 and now it’s 1 in 39 is remarkable to say the least.

He seems to be a well versed and thoughtful person. The opposite of Fauci and Birx. But please do the research needed to know why this is happening.

As I sit here reading RFK/Hooker's book, "Vax-UnVaxx," citing Dr. Frank DeStefano, the former director of the CDC's Immunization Safety Office indicating 1.49 times greater odds of autism in children receiving MMR before 36 months of age, "DeStefano and his coauthors dismissed these statistically significant findings..." It was worse for AA boys if vaccinated before 36 months, 3.86x increase risk. So are RFK/Hooker backing away from the research cited? I paid for that book!

I'm happy that Jay Battacharya has voiced opposition to the use of aborted fetal stem cells in research. (And it's not necessary). It might open up more medical options to those of us who are very 'allergic' to killing humans. For some of us, it's almost as if medical progress ground to a halt, because the use of these cell lines is so ubiquitous, even in the testing for efficacy of natural products.

“Dissent is the very essence of science," being affirmed by the future head of the NIH gives me hope for the future.

The NIH is yet another weaponized bureaucracy to be cleaned out and refocused on serving the best interests of the US citizens. Dr. Bhattacharya's humility and commitment to carefully stewarding public funds are refreshing. The US is fortunate that he is willing to serve.

RE: “don’t generally believe there is a link”

Hmmm? His quote is a “tell ‘em what they want to hear” soliloquy despite that he likely DOES believe that 1) a regiment of up to forty-two vaccines, many in combination, might be the actual cause of ASD, and 2) ultrasound heating of brain tissue during prenatal doctor visits.

For 1) consider how the typical vaccine ingredients of aluminum, thiomersal (organic mercury compound), formaldehyde, and adjuvant might impact neuro/glial development in infants brains. However, alternative causes just might be fluoridated water or insecticides/herbicides residues ingested by both mother and infants, or perhaps even the gross amount of simple sugar used in infant formula.

For 2) Consider the evidence that fetuses are especially vulnerable to ultrasound. Trials in China that used ultrasound before abortions, revealed obvious damage to fetal tissues (including brain tissue?). Moreover, the harm caused by ultrasound transceivers is apparently dose-dependent. In 1992, despite safety concerns, the FDA raised permissible ultrasound levels 800% which might have contributed to the rise of chronic childhood illnesses (including ASD?). Possible damage to fetal brain tissue (caused by vibration/heat as a result of directed sonic wave energy?) was not mentioned in the report - (amidwesterndoctor@substack.com)

Ultimately, researchers will find the true cause when they compare what mothers/offspring were subject to in the 1950s (food/vaccinations/fluoridated water/no ultrasound use) and what they are subject to beginning in the 1980 and 1990s when ASD afflictions began to expand exponentially (1/10,000 to 1/36 today).

I can appreciate all of the good Dr. Bhattacharya has done, including how well he answered the questions during the hearing, and that, together with RFK Jr he will be able to build bridges while hopefully also saving our children and grandchildren from further atrocities like the Covid vaccines and HepB vaccine on day 1. What I have a hard time with, though, is his answer about the link between vaccines and autism. His answer goes to far in denying the connection that other MDs have said that “every pediatrician knows”. It’s fine to say that hasn’t seen it proven in the existing peer-reviewed placebo controlled trials, but to just incidentally mention that it should be studied further doesn’t go far enough in acknowledging how important it is to get that research done, immediately, in order to protect the children who are now experiencing significant injuries like autism at a greater rate than 1 in 36.

Of course senators like Bernie are going to be much more concilliatory toward someone who states so strongly that he doesn’t believe the connection exists, but I believe that he should absolutely know by now that it’s very likely that the mmr and other vaccines trigger autism in some of our very vulnerable babies. We need to do better by them. We need to insist that they be protected from harm. I don’t care how nasty Senator Sanders gets when those of us in the know disagree with his protection of harmful vaccines. I don’t care how many of his constituents agree with him about the importance of not doing the research that will demonstrate conclusively that the vaccines cause significant harm. I have a grandnephew who almost lost his life due to the vaccines he received at 2 yrs old. HIs pediatrician took it “in stride”, said he’d seen such extreme reactions before, assured his parents that they would know by 48 hrs whether their son would live or die. If that ordinary pediatrician was that calm about the fact that a 2-yr-old was in intensive care, hanging on for his life, it is not a rare enough event to keep pretending that these vaccines are harmless. Years from now, people will read Dr. Bhattacharya’s answer and know that the vast majority of the supposed grown-ups in our country, and all of our elected representatives, have turned a blind eye to the problem for far too long. And I’m guessing that future generations will be horrified by our complicity in what Big Pharma and Big Medicine have done to so many of the tiniest members of our society.

For me, Dr. Bhattacharya did not go far enough in making it clear that there are now many many warrrior moms, warrior dads, warrior grandparents, warrior aunts and uncles and great aunts and great uncles who are saying “enough is enough” and we don’t give a hoot how unhappy Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren (or every other Democrat) is with those of us who are willing to stand up for our kids.

Take heart in that Sanders wasn't at the Makary hearing. Further, that Makary was for studying. My guess is that with confirmation they can get going on agency missions, needs and priorities.

No, I honestly don’t know who would be better. Just disappointed that he didn’t speak up more strongly for the need to do the research, given that he’s also going to be in charge of the research priorities. I believe it’s only accurate to say that the research is inconclusive, that it shows too much willingness to “go along to get along” to say he believes there isn’t a connection from the research he has seen. There is definitely not research to support that conclusion, and he definitely understands that. Anyway, I’m willing to see what he does next, but definitely don’t fully trust him to tell us the truth.

He did say that NIH should fund research, he also said "based on my review of the literature" I took to mean that the literature isn't connecting the dots... yet. What about him indicates he won't tell us the truth? He has been nothing short of stellar in his approach, which is no small feat.

It is not honest from a review of the literature to believe that vaccines don’t cause autism. The studies that reach that conclusion are flawed. I believe that he understands the flaws in that research, and in case he doesn’t he is not qualified to lead the NIH. Assuming he does understand the flaws in the research there’s no way to believe that vaccines don’t cause autism from the published research. At most one can conclude that it’s inconclusive. That’s why I don’t trust him. Honesty isn’t something that should be fudged or sacrificed because it isn’t possible to trust someone who is willing to fudge.

I’m willing to see what happens, but that remark was a red flag for me.
