Richard Schweid examines home health care in detail, focusing on the women who tend to our elderly and disabled loved ones and how we fail to value their work. They are paid minimum wage so that we might be absent, getting on with our own lives.

In Wholesale Philanthropy: From Charity to Social Transformation, a section from E. Richard Brown’s Rockefeller Medicine Men, we uncover how corporate elites—led by figures like John D.

Dieses Buch deckt eine der größten Lügen dieser Welt auf, die weder vom Mainstream noch von der alternativen Szene thematisiert wird. Die Viruslüge ist nicht nur eine Abrechnung mit der todbringenden Schulmedizin, sondern auch mit den Ärzten des Widerstands, die nach wie vor an der Keimtheorie festhalten, mit der wir seit über 150 Jahren belogen werden. Alternative Ansätze, die im Gegensatz zur Schulmedizin das Bewusstsein mit einbeziehen, wie die Germanische Heilkunde, werden von den bekannten Ärzten des Widerstands bis heute ignoriert.

This fast-spreading disease, known now as the Antonine plague, may have been history’s first pandemic. Soon after its arrival, the Empire began its downward trajectory toward decline and fall.

As the FDA medical officer charged with reviewing Merrell Pharmaceutical’s application for approval, Kelsey was unconvinced that there was sufficient evidence of the drug’s efficacy and safety.

On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision, asserting that the Constitution did not confer the right to abortion. This ruling, in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health case, was the culmination of a half-century of pro-life activism promoting the idea that fetuses are people and therefore entitled to the rights and protections that the Constitution guarantees. But it was also the product of a much longer history of archaic ideas about the relationship between pregnant people and the fetuses they carry.
