COVID-19 mRNA Shots Destroy Over 60% of Women’s Non-Renewable Egg Supply

The study titled, Impact of mRNA and Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccines on Ovarian Reserve, was recently published in the journal Vaccines:

Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the effects of messenger RNA (mRNA) and inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines on ovarian histology and reserve in rats.

Methods: Thirty female Wistar albino rats, aged 16–24 weeks, were randomly divided into three groups (n = 10): control, mRNA vaccine, and inactivated vaccine groups. Each vaccine group received two doses (on day 0 and day 28) at human-equivalent doses. Four weeks post-second vaccination, ovarian tissues were harvested for analysis.

Results: Immunohistochemical analysis was performed to evaluate the expression of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), caspase-3, and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in ovarian follicles. Both vaccines induced significant increases in TGF-β1, VEGF, and caspase-3 expression, with more pronounced effects in the mRNA vaccine group. Conversely, AMH expression in the granulosa cells of primary, secondary, and antral follicles showed marked reductions (p < 0.001). The counts of primordial, primary, and secondary follicles decreased significantly in the inactivated vaccine group relative to controls and further in the mRNA vaccine group compared to the inactivated group (p < 0.001). Additionally, the mRNA vaccine group exhibited a decrease in antral and preovulatory follicles and an increase in atretic follicles compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). The serum AMH level was diminished with the mRNA vaccination in comparison with the control and inactivated groups.

Secretary Hegseth Paves the Way for Department of Defense Accountability

Service members applaud the Department of Defense’s latest move, hoping it brings them one step closer to holding accountable those who implemented and enforced former Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s tyrannical COVID-19 shot mandate.

While Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recently stated that the COVID-19 shot mandate was “unlawful,” The Gateway Pundit previously reported that his comments were not in writing. From a legal perspective, it is important to note that video and verbal statements are admissible in the same manner for court cases.

The Department of Defense (DoD) wasted little time putting his choice of words to paper. On May 7, the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (OSD) Personnel & Readiness sent a “MEMORANDUM FOR SECRETARIES OF THE MILITARY DEPARTMENTS,” noting that the now-rescinded 2021 COVID-19 shot mandate was “unlawful as implemented.”

TGP spoke to whistleblower and “forced into retirement” Navy Medical Service Corps officer Lt. Ted Macie. According to Macie, “Those responsible for forcing the shot on service members can no longer deny their acts were unlawful, which will be a great benefit to ongoing cases or any litigation that’s on the way.” Since the mandate was “unlawful as implemented,” he said, “the persons responsible now have no top cover for implementing the mandate that violated the law. Period.”

In a recent X post, he also pointed out the alleged conspiring between Department of Defense, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and Pfizer to “push” the COVID-19 shot mandate.

Trump’s New Surgeon General Pick Triggers Massive Backlash — Even RFK Jr.’s VP Nicole Shanahan Weighs In: ‘She Was Bred and Raised as a Manchurian Asset’

President Trump has withdrawn his controversial Surgeon General nominee Dr. Janette Nesheiwat — after widespread outrage from conservative grassroots — and instead selected Dr. Casey Means, a physician-turned-wellness influencer whose résumé and associations are now under intense fire.

Dr. Nesheiwat, whose record includes cheerleading COVID-19 lockdowns, mask mandates, child vaccinations, and boosters, was seen by many in the MAGA base as a disastrous pick.

Dr. Nesheiwat has since adjusted her stance as more data became available. She criticized the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for its handling of the vaccine’s rollout and mandates, particularly its impact on children.

Despite her recent reversals on these positions, critics argue that these initial missteps reflect poor judgment.

Facing mounting outrage from his base, Trump yanked the nomination, and she is now being reassigned to serve under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Trump then tapped Dr. Casey Means instead, touting her “impeccable MAHA credentials” and anti-establishment medical reform platform.

Unfortunately for Trump, the backlash didn’t stop—it only intensified. Critics say Means is unqualified, unlicensed, and “engineered.”

Investigative journalist Laura Loomer led the charge, blasting Means as a social media influencer with no surgical training, no active medical license in Oregon, where she practiced, and a history of cozying up to anti-Trump narratives.

Judge Blocks Department Of Education From Canceling COVID-Related School Aid

A federal judge on May 6 blocked the U.S. Department of Education from canceling more than $1 billion in funding that was allocated to help address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on primary schools and students.

U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos entered a preliminary injunction that prohibits the Department of Education from enforcing its recission of extensions for the funding that had been granted in January by the prior administration.

Education officials also cannot modify the previously-approved extensions without giving the states at least 14 days notice, the judge said.

Congress allocated funds to states to distribute to schools to address problems stemming from the pandemic. The more than $276 billion was distributed to states through an education stabilization fund. Under laws passed by Congress, states had until Sept. 30, 2024, to designate the money, and until Jan. 28, 2025, to access funds to achieve the designations.

States could ask for extensions for the latter deadline, and a number did so. The Department of Education granted extensions to at least 16 states, and Washington, enabling them to access the money through March 2026. 

Education Secretary Linda McMahon informed the states in March that the extensions were being rescinded because additional review had determined they were “not justified” in part because the pandemic is over, although the states could reapply for extensions.

We’ve been ostracised for telling the truth about how the liberal elite got Covid so wrong

It is more than five years since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, and yet the measures used to respond to it still, it seems, have the capacity to shock.

Stephen Macedo, a liberal academic at Princeton University, has just spent months examining how the Western political class got its response to the crisis so wrong – an endeavour that has made him an outlier among many of his peers.

Macedo, 68, a professor of politics, says he was “shocked on a daily basis” by information that he and Frances Lee, a professor of politics and public affairs at the university, unearthed throughout the writing of their book, In Covid’s Wake: How Our Politics Failed Us.

“I have often not been able to believe what I’ve been reading,” says Macedo. Among the most perturbing facts was a “pandemic preparedness” plan published by the World Health Organisation in 2019, months before the coronavirus outbreak, followed by a report by Johns Hopkins University later that year, in which both sets of authors were “sceptical about a whole range of non-pharmaceutical interventions [NPIs, i.e. face coverings and social distancing],” Lee explains. A 2011 UK government pre-pandemic plan had reached similar conclusions. And yet these “interventions” formed a central part of the response to the pandemic in Britain and the United States.

Along with Lee, Macedo has become a loud voice in the effort to challenge how the “laptop classes” defined our pandemic response, and got it badly wrong.

In their book, which is published on Tuesday and has been described by The New York Times as “an invitation to have a reckoning”, Macedo and Lee argue that, in the face of a global emergency, democracy and free speech failed.

We meet at Princeton, in New Jersey, on a grey spring day, earnest undergrads clutching coffee cups passing along the cherry blossom-lined streets.

The authors explain that their goal is “not just to look back for looking back’s sake” but to reflect on where the liberal political class veered off course, and set out the change of approach they believe is required ahead of the next global emergency.

Top Doctor Behind Defense Department’s Vaccine Mandate Who Tossed Thousands of Men and Women from US Military For Not Taking Jab – Sues to Get Her Job Back

Former senior defense official Dr. Terry Adirim, who was behind the unconstitutional military vaccine mandate, was reportedly fired from her position in February 2025 shortly after President Trump took office.

Dr. Terry Adirim, a senior CIA official and former Defense Department official under Joe Biden, was fired by the Trump Administration after she caused so much harm and damage to the US military and thousands of military men and women who refused to take the COVID jab.

Dr. Terry Adirim left her position on February 25 to “pursue other opportunities” outside the department, according to an internal memo sent by VA Deputy Secretary Donald Remy to employees.

Her position was filled by Dr. Neil Evans, currently a senior consultant for the Office of Information and Technology, until a candidate was identified.

Adirim has served as the VA electronic health record modernization program director since December 2021.

Investigative reporter Jordan Schachtel of The Dossier reported that Adirim signed the order requiring all service members to receive the emergency use authorization (EUA) COVID vaccine while serving as acting Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs after being appointed by Joe Biden.

“While she was in the Pentagon as the acting assistant secretary of defense for health affairs (serving as a Biden Admin political appointee), Dr Adirim, signed her name to an order forcing service members to take the emergency use authorization (EUA) vaccine. Adirim’s memo attempted to justify mandating EUA shots as if they were FDA approved, which was not the case at the time, and remains the same today. The mandate led to countless vaccine injuries, the worst recruiting crisis since the formation of the all-volunteer military, and thousands of service members discharged for refusing to take the mRNA experimental gene serum,” The Dossier reported.

The Pandemic that Never Left

We often speak of COVID-19 in the past tense.  The masks have come off, the Plexiglas dividers are gone, and the nightly case trackers have vanished from our screens.  But the virus, less in its biological form than its cultural and economic residue, never really left.  Its fingerprints are all over how we live, eat, and work.  And the strangest part?  Many of us hardly notice anymore.

Take a walk downtown in any mid-sized American city around 8:30 P.M. on a Tuesday.  You’ll see it.  The restaurants are dark.  The neon signs are dim.  Kitchens that once bustled until midnight now flick off their stoves by nine, if they’re open at all.

Increasingly, diners find locked doors on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, with small placards explaining “New Hours Due to Staffing” or the more typical “Closed Tuesdays.”

It’s tempting to blame labor shortages or inflation.  Both are real.  But behind them lies a broader, quieter shift, a cultural transformation catalyzed by the pandemic and cemented by inertia.  Much of that has eroded the hustle, the grind, the after-hours dining, and lingering conversations over a second glass of wine.

And it’s not just restaurants.  America’s downtowns, once the heartbeat of business and commerce, are hollowing out.

This is not a red-state or blue-state problem.  The virus didn’t ask about party affiliation when it changed how we live.  Both political parties spent, scrambled, and stumbled through the early stages of COVID-19, each spinning its response as leadership while quietly punting the deeper consequences down the road.  In many cities, that road now runs past a series of vacant office towers.

A recent National Bureau of Economic Research study found that office attendance in major urban centers remains down over 40% from pre-pandemic levels.  Remote work, initially a stopgap, became a lifestyle.  Hybrid work is now the norm for many white-collar jobs, and although it offers flexibility, it also delivers a slow bleed to the urban economy.  The companies that once filled 20 floors of a high-rise are now leasing half of one or none.

And cities are paying the price.

Fewer office workers mean fewer lunches bought, fewer dry cleaning runs, fewer happy hours, fewer subway fares, and fewer tax dollars.  Cities like San Francisco and Chicago are staring down budget shortfalls and contemplating service cuts.  Smaller cities with less diversified economies are faring worse.  Once designed around density and foot traffic, downtowns now resemble ghost towns by 6 P.M.

The commercial real estate market is groaning under the weight of it.  Office vacancy rates in the U.S. hit a record 19.6% in late 2023, and the consequences are rippling.  Property taxes from office buildings make up a significant revenue stream for many municipalities.  When those buildings sit empty or depreciate, cities lose income.  That means potholes go unfilled, bus routes are cut, police and fire departments see reduced budgets, and residents feel the decline.

We’re living through a slow-motion crisis that doesn’t make headlines because it doesn’t explode; it seeps.

What Is the PREP Act?

In conjunction with EUA (Emergency Use Authorization), the PREP Act is the legislation that enabled – and continues to perpetuate – the rollout and administration of mRNA “countermeasures” against Covid-19.

In this article I will discuss what the PREP Act says, how it was passed, what prominent politicians and legal experts said about it at the time, how it is related to COVID, and why I support efforts (1) calling for the HHS Secretary to immediately repeal the PREP Act emergency declaration for COVID, and (2) calling on legislators to repeal the law entirely.

WHAT THE PREP ACT SAYS

The PREP Act is a long and convoluted piece of legislation. You can read the entire thing here:

42 U.S. Code § 247d-6d – Targeted liability protections for pandemic and epidemic products and security countermeasures

This is a summary of the main sections of the law:

(a) Liability Protections

  • Anyone defined as a “covered person” is immune from legal liability related to the use or administration of anything defined as a “covered countermeasure.”

A “covered person” includes (A) “the United States” or (B) any person or “entity” that manufactures, distributes, plans a program for, prescribes, administers, or dispenses a covered countermeasure, or an official, agent or employee of any of the above.

A “covered countermeasure” includes any drug, biological product or device that is authorized under Emergency Use Authorization or approved through any other legal pathway.

  • Scope of claims for loss:
    • The immunity applies to any claim related to death, actual or fear of physical, mental or emotional injury, illness, disability, or condition; and loss of or damage to property, including business interruption loss.
    • The immunity applies to any causal relation to any of the above types of loss related to the design, development, clinical testing or investigation, manufacture, labeling, distribution, formulation, packaging, marketing, promotion, sale, purchase, donation, dispensing, prescribing, administration, licensing, or use of a covered countermeasure.
  • The immunity applies only if a countermeasure was applied or used during the effective period of the emergency declaration for that countermeasure, and was used for the disease, population and geographic area specified in the declaration.
  • For manufacturers or distributors, the immunity applies to any population in any geographic area, without regard to the population or area specified in the emergency declaration for the countermeasure.

Three children ‘rescued’ from home after ‘COVID syndrome’ parents kept them locked inside for 4 years

Three children have allegedly been found living in prison-like conditions following COVID ‘lockdown’ rules, long after pandemic restrictions ended.

A German couple living in Spain have been arrested after allegedly locking their three children inside and forcing them to abide by pandemic restrictions, such as wearing masks, for the past four years.

The siblings, eight-year-old twins and a 10-year-old, were dramatically rescued from the ‘house of horrors’ in Oviedo on Monday (April 28) after being locked up inside since around December 2021.

Once freed, cops noticed the children acted unusually to being outside, as they touched the grass and appeared intrigued by a snail.

An investigator also said: “As soon as we got them out, all three children began to breathe deeply, as if they had never been outside before,” according to New York Post.

The authorities learnt of the children’s situation after a neighbor filed a complaint on April 14 that the youngsters had not been attending school, according to El Comercio.

Yet while Oviedo Police Chief Javier Lozano said there was nothing ‘initially’ that sparked concern, cops grew suspicious after surveillance on the home revealed the 53-year-old father was the only person to leave the residence to pick up groceries and mail.

Other neighbors reported the rest of the family had not left the home since December 2021.

When police approached the family, the father reportedly ‘agreed’ to let them in while they spotted the mom, a 48-year-old German-American woman, putting three masks each on the children, per El Mundo.

It is also reported that she told officers to ‘be careful’ since her children were ‘very sick.’

Recipients of Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine Had Higher Mortality Than Those of Moderna: Study

Florida adults who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine were more likely to die following vaccination than Moderna COVID-19 recipients, according to a new preprint study that was co-authored by Florida’s top health official.

Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida’s surgeon general, and other researchers identified nearly 9.2 million Florida adults not living in institutions who received at least two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine less than six weeks apart between Dec. 18, 2020, and Aug. 31, 2021.

They narrowed the group to nearly 1.5 million, half who received Pfizer’s vaccine and half who received Moderna’s vaccine, by matching them based on criteria such as age and sex. They then analyzed the records to see which group had the higher risk for all-cause mortality, or death from any cause, in the 12 months following vaccination.

That analysis found that more Pfizer recipients died, with 847 deaths per 100,000 recipients, compared to 618 deaths per 100,000 for Moderna recipients. Pfizer recipients were also more likely to suffer heart-related deaths and COVID-19 deaths.

Pfizer and Moderna did not respond to requests for comment.

The study was published as a preprint, which means it has not been peer reviewed, on the medRxiv server on April 29.
