Black Student Journalist Confronts CNN Probot Abby Phillip Over The Dependent Media's Effort to Conceal the Feds Failure to Provide Hurricane Relief to Victims - Just to Get Kamala Elected

ACCORDING TO FUNKTIONARY:

Probot – a propagandizing programmed robot. A representative from an organization, agency or institution, especially the Internal Revenue Service, Pentagon, State Department, or Blight House, whose assignment is to make prepared statements and answer “cooked” (prepared) questions at news conferences, briefings and the like. A probot is a proxymoron who conveys programmed disinformation in computerized language and bureaucratese jargon. A probot is one who disseminates lies, distortions and convenient mass truths composed by a superior overruling elite. (See: Proxymoron)

From [HERE] Student journalist Andrew Kingsbury called out CNN’s Abby Phillip and the legacy media for failing to accurately cover the neglect that the victims of Hurricane Helene continue to face.

Kingsbury asked why, given the government’s failure to address the devastating conditions facing Americans, the national media seems uninterested in the story.

Phillip’s response was to essentially acknowledge that FEMA failed in its response but that coverage was also likely muted because of the political implications.

Andrew Kingsbury: Hi, I’m Andrew Kingsbury. I’m an extension school alum. I was recently in Western North Carolina in the Asheville area, responding to the hurricane. I was there for about two weeks, and the sense that I got was that those people were abandoned by their government, but also by, not so much the local media and press, but the national press.

The operation that I was part of is the first time in American history that there’s been an FAA-registered, civilian-run disaster relief helicopter operation because there was such a vacuum that a Green Beret Master Sergeant, he essentially… He lost his wife and daughter for a couple of days. He couldn’t find them. After finding them, he realized, “Where are the helicopters? I’m going to find out why. I’m just going to call my friends and I’m going to ask them to bring their helicopters.”That’s what happened, 35 helicopters at the peak rescuing people.

I stopped at the National Press Club in DC on my way back. I’ve spoken to multiple members of the press here, Washington Post reporters, Katie Couric even, and nobody seems to know anything about this level of abandonment. I’d like to end with this question, which is not my own question.I guess it is my question, and the people that are there.

This is Matt Van Swol if that’s how his name is pronounced, on X, saying, “It’s been 45 days since Helene hit Western North Carolina. There’s still no clean drinking water in the city of Asheville. Trash is swinging from the trees 20 feet high. Kids in Yancey County won’t go back to school until late November. Where are the reporters? We still need help.”

That’s how I also feel, based on my, I believe at this point, objective experience of going to the National Press Club, speaking to various national-level reporters here and around the country, and them not really having any clue as to what’s going on, what happened, and it’s still going on.

So that Matt Van Swol’s question, please.

Abby Phillip: Yeah, I totally take the question and also the critique. I think it’s correct, actually. I wonder the same thing. I think that…

Andrew Kingsbury:Can we get some reporters there? Yeah.

Abby Phillip:No, I mean, look, I’m sitting here thinking, I will take this back, right? Because I can give you a lot of reasons, perhaps, why maybe there has not been a persistent remaining interest in what’s happened there. I think in general, journalists have not been very good about sticking with communities long after they’ve been affected by something. That’s just in general, right? [MORE]

Post Election Massa' Media Continues to Deceive, Divide People: NYT’s ‘Heartbroken’ Black Women Edition

From [HERE] Even after a decisive election in which President-elect Donald Trump increased his support among nearly every demographic group, The New York Times is as busy as ever dividing Americans over race and sex. I’m convinced if it weren’t allowed to do that for a single day, the paper would shut down.

The Times this week ran the absurd headline, “Disillusioned by the Election, Some Black Women Are Deciding to Rest,” bolstering that thesis with serious investigative work into the mood of black Americans across the nation.

Just kidding. The Times simply interviewed a handful of DEI scammers and looked at TikTok, where the most psychotic Democrat women go to record and publicly share their mental breakdowns.

At the very start of the article is a quote from Cheri Hall, a “diversity, equity and inclusion consultant,” who told the paper she was “heartbroken” by Trump’s victory. The Times then described a narcissistic TikTok video Hall recently posted in which she hysterically declares her intent to socially withdraw and encourages other black women to do the same.

“She won’t allow herself to feel consumed by national politics, she said, and she instead plans to focus on her mental and physical health by exercising and no longer molding herself to please others,” is how the Times generously explained it. The video would be more accurately described as a self-important monologue about how a Democrat voter didn’t see the election results she’d hoped for — surely a victim of the media’s nonstop liesthat Kamala Harris was popular — so she plans to alienate her neighbors.

Peer Reviewed Study Finds that COVID Injections Pose 112,000% Greater Risk of Brain Clots, Strokes Than Flu Shots

From [HERE] COVID-19 vaccines pose a 112,000% greater risk of brain clots and strokes than flu vaccines and a 20,700% greater risk of those symptoms than all other vaccines combined, according to a peer-reviewed study that calls for a global moratorium on the vaccines.

The study, published last week in the International Journal of Innovative Research in Medical Science, found reports of 5,137 cases of cerebral thromboembolism after COVID-19 shots over 36 months. This compares to 52 reported cases following flu vaccination and 282 cases for all vaccines over the past 34 years.

According to the study, this represents an “alarming breach in the safety signal threshold concerning cerebral thrombosis adverse events” following COVID-19 vaccination.

The study’s authors — independent researcher Claire Rogers, obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. James A. Thorp, independent researcher Kirstin Cosgrove and cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough — used data from the U.S. government’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), for their analysis.

The data also indicated 9,821 reports of atrial fibrillation — an irregular heart rhythm that is “the most common identifiable cause of cerebral arterial thromboembolism” — following COVID-19 vaccination in 41 months, compared to 797 cases reported in 34 years for all other vaccines combined.

Rogers told The Defender the findings confirm anecdotal evidence of an increased incidence of stroke seen during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. [MORE]

If a Citizen Came to the Rescue of an Aggressor During a Fight He Could be Charged w/a Crime. But What About Cops? LVPD Cop Fatally Shot a Black Man Repeatedly After He Called 911 to Report a Break-in

IN GENERAL, The right of self-defense is not available to an original aggressor, that is a person who has sought a quarrel with the design to force a deadly issue and thus through his fraud, contrivance or fault, to create a real or apparent necessity for making a felonious assault.

WHERE AN INDIVIDUAL COMES TO THE AID OF THE WRONG PERSON DURING A FIGHT IN MANY STATES HE ASSUMES THE RISK. FOR INSTANCE, THE DC COURT OF APPEALS EXPLAINED, ‘the right to use force in defense of a third person is predicated upon that other person's right of self defense. Id. at 390; see also Taylor v. U.S., 380 A.2d 989, 994-95 (D.C. 1977) (finding that one who commits an armed robbery is not entitled to claim right of self-defense; bystander is therefore not entitled to interfere on robber's behalf in security officer's lawful discharge of his duties). "But when it comes to determining whether--and to what degree--force is reasonably necessary to defend a third person under attack, the focus ultimately must be on the intervenor's, not the victim's, reasonable perceptions of the situation."

AT ANY RATE, police are exempt from the above about self-defense. COPS have the extra or added “power” to act offensively as aggressors; to use force offensively on people or initiate unprovoked acts of violence against people whenever they deem it necessary. IF SUCH POWER DIDN’T COME FROM THE PEOPLE THEN WHERE DID THEY GET IT? What DO YOU THINK THE WHITE LIBERAL PROSECUTORS IN LAS VEGAS WILL DO HERE?

From [HERE] A 43-year-old father was shot and killed in his home by a Las Vegas police officer last week, authorities said, after he called 911 for help and struggled with a woman he knew over a knife.

Brandon Durham’s family has asked for the officer to be arrested, but an attorney for Officer Alexander Bookman said his client committed no crime.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police received multiple calls early November 12 about a shooting on Wine River Drive. Durham, who was home with his 15-year-old daughter, told 911 that people were shooting at his house and had broken in, Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren said at a news conference last week.

When Bookman and two others responded, they saw damaged cars and windows and heard screaming and banging from inside Durham’s home. Bookman kicked in Durham’s front door and, once inside, found Durham and Alejandra Boudreaux, 31, wrestling over a knife in a bedroom doorway, according to Koren.

Boudreaux, who was in a relationship with Durham, had broken into the home and she and Durham were in a heated confrontation, according to an arrest report, first obtained by CNN affiliate KVVU.

Bookman shouted, “Drop the knife! Drop the knife!” and fired one shot, hitting Durham and sending him and Boudreaux to the ground. Durham, on the floor, was then shot by Bookman five more times, body-worn camera footage released by police showed. It is not clear whether one or both were holding the knife at the moment of the shooting.

“After the shots, (Boudreaux) told the officer he shot the wrong person,” the arrest report states.

“An arrest warrant should be issued immediately for the arrest of officer Alexander Bookman,” Lee Merritt, an attorney for Durham’s family, said at a Monday news conference, reported by CNN affiliate KNTV.

Bookman’s attorney says the officer did nothing that violated the law.

Steven Wolfson, Clark County district attorney, said in a statement the investigation is “still in its infancy.”

“It will take weeks, if not months, for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to complete its investigation; therefore, it would be inappropriate for me to express an opinion regarding whether criminal charges are going to be filed,” Wolfson said. “I simply do not have all the information yet.”

Barbaric Israelis Post a Photo of a Soldier in Gaza Urinating on the Quran

From [HERE] An Israeli soldier in Gaza has reportedly posed a photo of himself urinating on a copy of the Quran, the Muslim Holy Book, in the latest offensive gesture toward the local Palestinian population in the enclave.

According to local news sites, the photograph was taken in Jabalia, north Gaza, where Israel imposed a month-long siege on the city with residents trapped under heavy bombardment and faced a ground offensive.

The alleged image was published on a private Instagram account of a soldier from the Givati Brigade 435 Rotem Battalion and time-stamped with the date 22 October 2024 at 17:41.

The song 'Violent Crimes' by controversial US artist Kanye West played over the image.

Online, many slammed the Israeli army's actions as "depraved" and "disrespectful", which follow other videos of soldiers ransacking mosques or burning Qurans.

"If someone posted a photo urinating on a Torah scroll, there would rightfully be widespread condemnation.  But when Israeli soldiers post photos urinating on a Quran and desecrating mosques, there’s no condemnation, just more praise for them as the most moral army in the world," one social media user wrote.

"How has this not made any news headline, if this was a Muslim doing this to another holy book (which would never happen) it would be broadcast everywhere, but of course Zionists get their free pass," another wrote.

The New Arab reached out to the Israeli army and ministry of defence for comment but did not receive a response by the time of publication.

Pro-Palestine activists documented multiple examples of Israeli soldiers throwing pages of the Quran onto fires or other offensive acts. [MORE]

Israeli Forces Murder 76 Palestinians in Gaza Over 24 Hours

From [HERE] Gaza’s Health Ministry said Monday that Israeli attacks killed at least 76 Palestinians and wounded 158 more in the previous 24-hour period as Israeli strikes continued to pound targets across the Strip.

Strikes on Monday included an attack on a house in Beit Lahia, a city in northern Gaza that’s been under a complete siege since early October as part of an ethnic cleansing campaign.

According to the Palestinian news agency WAFA, the Israeli strike in Beit Lahia killed at least 17 civilians. The strike was near the Kamal Adwan hospital, which also came under attack. According to Al Jazeera, people inside the hospital were injured by shrapnel when Israeli forces shelled the entrance.

In Gaza City, an Israeli strike hit a house, killing at least five Palestinians and injuring others. Israeli forces also targeted a house in Jabalia, killing one woman and injuring her family members.

Israeli attacks were also reported in central and southern Gaza. Near the southern city of Rafah, an Israeli drone targeted a group of Palestinians, killing at least one. The Israeli military also bombed the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, killing at least four.

The Health Ministry said the latest violence brought its death toll up to 43,922 and the number of wounded to 103,898. The figures don’t account for Palestinians missing and presumed dead under the rubble, which has previously been estimated to be over 10,000.

A group of American healthcare workers who volunteered in Gaza estimated in an open letter to President Biden in October that the US-backed Israeli bombing campaign and siege have killed at least 118,908 Palestinians, including over 60,000 who have starved to death. Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, who led the letter, told Antiwar.com in a recent interview that the estimate was the bare minimum they came up with by looking at the available data.

5 Cops Plead Guilty in Murder of Quantez Burks in WVA Jail. Cops Brutally Beat Handcuffed Black Man Until He Collapsed, Then Dropped Him Face Down Onto the Concrete where they Continued to Beat Him

From [HERE] and [HERE] Five former Southern Regional Jail corrections officers have admitted to federal prosecutors that 37-year-old Quantez Burks died during a brutal beating by officers on March 1, 2022, while Burks was incarcerated at the jail, and they admit correctional officers conspired to keep the truth from the public and from the victim’s family.

As of Friday, November 15, 2024, eight officers have been charged in U.S. District Court in relation to Burks’ death.

Burks had been arrested Feb. 28, 2022, and charged with wanton endangerment and obstructing an officer, allegations related to discharging a firearm at his home during an argument. Burks had been at the jail less than 24 hours when he died after a series of alleged beatings, all while he was handcuffed.

Plea agreements state that correctional officers beat Burks until he collapsed and then carried him to another “blind spot,” or room without a camera, threw him face down on a concrete floor and continued the alleged beating. 

According to evidence presented in federal court, multiple officers responded to a call March 1, 2022, after Burks tried to push past officers in order to leave C-pod, a housing unit for inmates. They then took him to an interview room, a blind spot, because there were no surveillance cameras. Walters arrived at the room a minute after Burks and the other officers did. Attorneys said Burks was restrained, handcuffed and did not pose a threat to anyone.

After Burks was taken to A-pod, another blind spot, he went limp, and multiple officers had to carry him to the next interview room. Walters carried him with one arm and told Judge Goodwin that after arriving to A-pod, he swung Burks forward, hitting his head against the metal door frame and when the officers got him inside the room, they dropped him face down on the concrete floor, where they continued to beat him. He became unresponsive while in A-pod.

A number of inmates have died at SRJ since 2018, including Steven Robinson, Alvis Shrewsbury and Cameron Dunbrack, and their families have told 59News that West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation officials and West Virginia State Police investigators have failed to provide satisfactory answers regarding their deaths.

Latasha Williams, who was engaged to Quantez Burks, said in past interviews that she learned her fiancée had died when she called the office of a Raleigh County magistrate to inquire about setting bond for him and the clerk casually mentioned that he had died.

Kimberly Burks said neither officials from WVDCR, nor the agency which oversees it (West Virginia Department of Homeland Security) have yet informed the family of Quantez Burks’ death.

The family said they were not immediately provided an autopsy report by the State Medical Examiner’s Office, but the Burks family banded together to pay the $5,000 required for a private autopsy and to secure an attorney.

When the private autopsy showed Quantez Burks was beaten and likely died of a heart attack due to the beatings, Burks and Williams began a campaign to force officials to provide answers, they said.

The women showed up at public meetings and confronted elected officials, including Gov. Jim Justice, and asked for help.

Within days of Quantez Burks’ death, the West Virginia chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) had joined the family’s attorneys in calling for the U.S. Department of Justice to open a civil rights investigation, and famed civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump showed an interest, working with Georgia attorney Matthew Harman and Beckley attorney Stephen New.

The attorneys filed civil lawsuits and called on state officials to release video.

If Liberals are Allies of Black People Then Why Are They Filling Jails w/Blacks? Illinois Authorities Lock Up Blacks 7.5X More than Whites; Prison is 53% Black- yet Blacks are 14% of State Population

From [HERE] Often referred to as the most segregated city in the U.S. by media outlets like WBEZ Chicago and 14East, Chicago, Illinois, is riddled with redlining and racial profiling. A May 2024 report by a team of United Nations experts outlined a history of racist police brutality in the Chicago area, while a New York University School of Medicine study found that Chicagoans in the predominantly white neighborhood of Streeterville live an average of 30 years longer than the residents of the largely Black neighborhood of Englewood. The Chicago Sun-Times and journalist Linda Villarosa have attributed this disparity to segregation, disinvestment, and exploitative government-sanctioned policies.

The Prison Policy Initiative (PPI) notes that "With an incarceration rate of 433 per 100,000 residents [as of July 2024], Illinois locks up a higher percentage of its people than almost any democratic country on earth." Most of the state's prisoners are Chicago residents. Meanwhile, Black Illinois residents "are incarcerated at a rate 7.5 times higher than white people." Although, Illinois is only 14.6% Black, Blacks make up the majority of all those locked up at 53%. According to PPI, 77% of people in Illinois jails have not been convicted of a crime, meaning they're legally innocent. Additionally, people on probation in Illinois are saddled with onerous rules and conditions they must follow every day or risk incarceration.“ [MORE]

“Racist” republicans aren’t responsible.

Illinois is a Democratic stronghold and one of the "Big Three" Democratic strongholds alongside California and New York. Politics and economic life in Illinois is dominated by elite liberals. That is, elite whites, particularly those in the Chicago metro area, control and own all major resources (such as banks, local mainstream media, major real estate, ports, utilities, large corporations and businesses, all major industry, major non-profits, unions, hospitals, etc) and own most major real estate and anything else of substantial material value. If elite white liberals really wanted to do something about decarceration and the unjust and vastly disproportionate numbers of Black people incarcerated during the past 30 years, wouldn’t they have done so by now? In fact, in every metro area where large Black populations live amongst elite white liberals, Black people are incarcerated in grossly disproportionately numbers. In such places Blacks are also stopped, searched, injured and killed by police in grossly disproportionately numbers. Yet, Blacks rarely question this phenomena and enthusiastically support elite white liberals as their great allies - supporting them and their causes automatically without critical examination in every election.

The Civic Federation reported a nearly $2 billion budget for the Chicago Police Department (CPD) for the 2024 fiscal year. It further noted that the CPD budget "has grown steadily over the years to keep up with increases in personnel costs. CPD appropriations within the Corporate Fund have increased by nearly 40 percent since 2018."

Report: Corporate America Would Rather Help Women Kill Their Babies Than Start a Family

From [HERE] Nearly half of the Fortune 100 companies offer paid out-of-state travel for abortions, and many encourage options like egg freezing and in vitro fertilization in order to financially optimize their female employees.

report from the Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC) shows that while some pro-family policies have been adopted at top corporations, the balance weighs heavily in favor of delaying or destroying families.

“In addition to offering praiseworthy parental-leave policies and assistance with the costs of adoption or child care, a significant number of these corporations have simultaneously begun promoting and incentivizing options such as surrogacy, in vitro fertilization, egg freezing, and travel for abortions — options that encourage female employees in particular to postpone or even forego motherhood in order to advance in their careers,” Alexandra DeSanctis, co-author of the study, told The Federalist. “Real support for women in the workplace would prioritize reincorporating female employees who have left the workforce for a time to care for children, offering greater flexibility to working fathers so they can be more present to their families, and making as much room as possible for mothers to take on flexible part-time or remote work.”

According to the report, at least 42 Fortune 100 companies have publicly touted their offer to pay for out-of-state abortion travel; two others “strongly suggest” they have the coverage. The report noted that not all companies are transparent with their offerings, and that the total number is “probably an undercount as coverage for abortion travel expenses is likely to become standard in many health-care plans” under general provisions.

The report notes that while companies might offer full coverage for abortion and travel, it will only offer a percentage of the cost for things like adoption. [MORE]

Gallup Polls Shows Overall Support for the Death Penalty Remains at Five-Decade Low as Opposition to the Death Penalty Grows

From [HERE] According to October 2024 polling produced by Gallup, support for capital punishment remains at a five-decade low in the United States. Overall, Gallup found 53% of Americans in favor of the death penalty, but that number masks considerable differences between older and younger Americans. More than half of young adults aged 18 to 43 now oppose the death penalty. Among those expressing a political affiliation, support for the death penalty fell markedly in all groups and in all generations, with the exception of Republicans sixty and older, where support for the death penalty rose by 2%. Public support of the death penalty peaked in 1994, with 80% of Americans in favor of the death penalty for a person convicted of murder, which roughly correlates with the peak in the number of executions in the United States.

Can She Stand Her Ground After She Made an Unlawful Entry Into His Apartment? Civil Trial Begins for White Dallas Cop Convicted of Murdering Botham Jean

From [HERE] A Dallas County jury will decide this week whether former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger is liable for using excessive force in a civil wrongful death trial over her killing of Botham Jean in 2018.

Guyger was convicted of murder in 2019 for shooting and killing her unarmed neighbor in his apartment, believing it was her own after she returned home from a shift. Guyger is currently serving a 10-year sentence at a state prison in Gatesville.

Botham Jean’s parents Alison and Bertrum Jean and sister Allissa Findley accused Guyger in a federal lawsuit filed the year of his death of using excessive force that resulted in the 26-year-old’s wrongful death and violated his constitutional rights.

“There existed no justification whatsoever for Defendant Guyger’s use of deadly force,” the suit reads. “[Botham] Jean was in his own apartment and was not committing a penal offense. [Botham] Jean was totally unaware of what was transpiring when Officer Guyger fired the deadly shots. [Botham] Jean was not attempting to harm anyone, nor did he appear menacing, threatening, or dangerous in any manner.”

The Jean family is suing for an undisclosed amount of money in damages for the pain and mental anguish Botham Jean suffered before his death as well as his parents’ mental anguish and loss of companionship after the death of their son. Botham Jean’s parents are also asking the jury to conclude Guyger should pay punitive and exemplary damages for their son’s death.

The lawsuit initially included the city of Dallas as a defendant, with Botham Jean’s family accusing the Dallas Police Department of showing a pattern of excessive force among its police force, failing to adequately train Guyger on the use of force and failing to discipline Guyger for a previous shooting incident while she was on the job.

The city was dismissed from the lawsuit last year after U.S. District Judge Barbara Lynn ruled the plaintiffs failed to sufficiently prove their claims against the city and DPD. [MORE]

Attorney says Liberal Fed Prosecutors in NYC Raided Puff Daddy's Prison Cell and Took His Handwritten Notes to Lawyers, in Violation of his So-Called 4th, 5th and 6th Amendment Rights

From [HERE] Now, the latest development in the lead up to the May 2025 trial of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is that his jail cell was reportedly raided by the feds, who are said to have seized his handwritten notes to his legal team.

Daily Mail reported:

“Prosecutors are in possession of attorney-client privileged material that was seized from the disgraced rapper’s jail cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.”

Combs attorney Marc Agnifilo says it’s privileged material that includes the rapper’s handwritten notes to his legal team concerning both defense witnesses and also defense strategies for his upcoming trial.

Agnifilo says the feds admit to possessing the material, and that ‘the seizure violates Diddy’s Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights’.

“’This search and seizure are in violation of Mr. Combs’ [constitutional] rights,’ Agnifilo said in documents viewed by Billboard.

‘The targeted seizure of a pre-trial detainee’s work product and privileged materials – created in preparation for trial – is outrageous government conduct amounting to a substantive due process violation.

This is a matter of grave concern that, most respectfully, must be addressed immediately, because the U.S. Attorney, and it seems the trial prosecutors, are currently in possession of privileged materials we request a full evidentiary hearing as soon as the Court can accommodate us’.”

Combs has been charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.

He has pleaded not guilty to coercing and abusing women aided by associates and employees, and to silencing victims through blackmail and violence, including kidnapping, arson and physical beatings.

“The prosecution has accused Diddy of obstructing his sex trafficking case from behind bars by paying off witnesses and enlisting his own children in a ‘public relations campaign’.” [MORE]

A Newly Republished, Previously Censored Autopsy Study on COVID Shots Shows a ‘High Likelihood’ that COVID “Vaccines” Cause Death. Peer Reviewed Paper Finds 73% of Deaths Linked to COVID Injections

CHD states: The largest COVID-19 vaccine autopsy study to date has been republished in a peer-reviewed journal after twice being censored. The study’s lead author said it provides “robust evidence” that the vaccines can cause death, meeting the FDA’s criteria for “an immediate market withdrawal.”

From [HERE] The largest COVID-19 vaccine autopsy study to date has been republished in a peer-reviewed journal — after twice being censored, according to Nicolas Hulscher, the paper’s lead author and an epidemiologist at the McCullough Foundation.

Science, Public Health Policy and the Law on Nov. 17 published the study, which had been previously withdrawn from Preprints with The Lancet and Forensic Science International.

Hulscher told The Defender the study’s republication signals a “pivotal victory for transparency and accountability in science.” It also marks “a significant setback” for actors in the biopharmaceutical complex and “their Academic Publishing Cartel,” Hulscher said.

Hulscher’s co-authors include Dr. Harvey RischDr. Peter A. McCullough and Dr. William Makis.

Hulscher told The Defender the study provides “robust evidence that COVID-19 vaccines can cause death. This means that the FDA’s [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] criteria for a Class I recall have been fulfilled, warranting an immediate market withdrawal.”

The FDA defines a Class I product recall as “a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death.”

Risch, professor emeritus of epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health, told The Defender that the COVID-19 vaccine spike protein “can stay around in some people and continue to do inflammatory damage in any site where it gets to through the bloodstream.”

In ‘striking act of censorship’ publishers withdraw study, shut down debate

The study’s publication in Science, Public Health Policy and the Law is the latest twist in an ongoing saga as the authors have tried to get their research out to the public and scientific community, Hulscher wrote on Substack.

The study results were first made public on July 5, 2023, as a preprint with The Lancet on SSRN, an open-access research platform.

However, Preprints with The Lancet removed the study from the server within 24 hours, posting a statement that the study’s conclusions were “not supported by the study methodology,” The Daily Sceptic reported.

McCullough told The Epoch Times that the study was experiencing “hundreds of reviews per minute” before its removal.

73.9% of deaths reviewed by authors linked to COVID vaccines

As The Defender previously reported, the study authors did a systematic review of studies on autopsy findings following COVID-19 vaccination.

They first searched PubMed and ScienceDirect for all published autopsy and necropsy — another word for autopsy — reports related to COVID-19 vaccination in which the death occurred after vaccination.

They screened out 562 duplicate studies among the 678 studies initially identified in their search. Other papers were removed because they lacked information about vaccination status.

Ultimately, they evaluated 44 papers containing 325 autopsies and one necropsy case. Three physicians independently reviewed each case and adjudicated whether or not the COVID-19 shot was the direct cause or contributed significantly to the death reported.

They found 240 of the deaths (73.9%) were found to be “directly due to or significantly contributed to by COVID-19 vaccination.” The mean age for death was 70.4 years old.

Primary causes of death included sudden cardiac death, which happened in 35% of cases, pulmonary embolism and myocardial infarction, which occurred in 12.5% and 12% of the cases respectively.

Other causes included vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia, myocarditis,multisystem inflammatory syndrome and cerebral hemorrhage.

Most deaths occurred within a week of the last shot.

The authors concluded that because the deaths were highly consistent with the known mechanisms for COVID-19 vaccine injury, it was highly likely the deaths were causally linked to the vaccine.

They said the findings “amplify” existing concerns about the vaccines, including those related to vaccine-induced myocarditis and myocardial infarction and the effects of the spike protein more broadly.

They also said the studies have implications for unanticipated deaths among vaccinated people with no previous illness. “We can infer that in such cases, death may have been caused by COVID-19 vaccination,” they wrote. [MORE]
