Good morning, C&C family. It\u2019s Friday! Our blockbuster roundup includes: a report from Governor DeSantis\u2019 signing ceremony in Brandon; someone puts up the cash daring Gavin Newsom to prove he DIDN\u2019T get injured by his booster; UK\u2019s excess deaths are bursting with cardiac events; Florida sues Biden over the CMS Mandate; the Narrative is completely destroyed now and Fauci and his sycophants desperately try to knit together a new narrative; it\u2019s a pandemic of the un-boosted now; boosters become part of the fully-injected regimen; Biden buys five million dollars of Pfizer\u2019s new inelegantly-named Covid drug; and fully-injected Michigan colleges start playing Whack-A-Mole with the flu.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🗞 *FLORIDA HAS SOME NEW LAWS* 🗞<\/strong><\/p>\n

🔥 LET\u2019S GO TO BRANDON. Brandon Honda, where Governor DeSantis signed the new Special Session bills into law, is a shiny, modern dealership with a full coffee bar in the showroom. It was also standing room only yesterday, as folks involved in getting the bills passed gathered to watch the Governor sign them into law yesterday in Brandon, Florida. I would like to shake the hand of whoever in the Governor\u2019s office came up with the idea to hold the historic signing in that delightful unincorporated community.<\/p>\n

The new laws do five main things: (1) ban mask mandates in all government-run places, including schools, (2) strip forcible vaccination from the Surgeon General\u2019s powers, (3) ban vaccine mandates in schools and by government employers, (4) gives the Attorney General $5 million dollars to deal with injection mandates and litigation; and (5) provides extremely broad exemptions for private employer injection mandates.<\/p>\n

The Governor made some stirring comments to the crowd, the media, and the cameras. He pointed out that the new laws were the most freedom-oriented on these issues in all fifty states. I think that\u2019s right.<\/p>\n

Some hostile media attended and when the Governor took questions they tried to skewer him with conservative talking points. When asked if he violated principles of small government and home rule when he overrode local governments and schools, he said, \u201cYeah these local jurisdictions wanted to lock people down, impose mask mandates, close schools; yeah, you\u2019re damn right I put my foot down on that.\u201d You should watch it. Great stuff.<\/p>\n

When pressed to explain a principled conservative basis for using state government against counties and school boards, DeSantis said, \u201cIt\u2019s the United STATES of America. Not the United School Boards or County Commissioners of America. The states are the primary vehicles to protect peoples\u2019 freedoms, their health, their safety, their welfare, and our Constitutional system.\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m still gathering my thoughts about what all this means and how the new laws will work in practice, but one thing was clear to me about the meeting yesterday. The Governor was full-throated in defense of individual rights over collectivism. And the Speaker of the House was there. And the President of the Senate was there. And the Attorney General was there. And the Surgeon General was there. They all agreed with Governor DeSantis.<\/p>\n

In other words, a completely-unified state government came together and got on the same page about not just upholding the IDEA of individual rights but PUSHING BACK against overreaching federal intrusion into our historic liberties. How many other states have this kind of a unified pro-freedom government? Maybe Texas and South Dakota.<\/p>\n

This could only have happened under strong leadership and it felt like they were making history.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🪖 PROJECT MULTIPLIER. So, today I am activating Project Multiplier for the first time. You guys who\u2019ve been around for a while know C&C is more than a blog. We are actually making change. That\u2019s why I\u2019m asking you for $12 (three cups of coffee) and two minutes or less to help send a giant C&C message to the whole country. Our first mission is to reward Governor DeSantis for getting this done.<\/p>\n

Go to \u201cRon DeSantis for Governor\u201d (https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/dhcfw9a8) and give $12 for his re-election. Do it RIGHT NOW before you read the rest of the post. Just stop for a second and come back. Give more if you want to, but be sure it ENDS IN A TWO. There\u2019s over 40,000 of us. We can make history today if we all work together, multiplying our tiny individual efforts into a giant force for good.<\/p>\n

I know you\u2019re tempted to skim on past this, maybe intending to come back to it later. Think about the stakes! When we pull this off, we\u2019ll get the attention of every other lawmaker in the country. If you\u2019ll trust me, make the effort and do it now, I PROMISE it will get us favorable national media attention. And, THANK YOU!!! I know it\u2019s a pain, and I\u2019ll bless you guys with extra-good content next week. If that\u2019s possible. So.<\/p>\n

I just did mine. Your turn. It only works if we ALL multiply together. Every single one of us. Including non-Florida folks. \u2018Cause we\u2019re coming to save you next. Sooner than you think.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🔥 QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW LAWS IN FLORIDA. I\u2019ve already started getting swamped with questions about the new laws. I\u2019ll let them accumulate for a few days, and then early next week I\u2019ll write up a primer for Florida employees about their new rights and how to use them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🔥 I\u2019ll be speaking at the Florida Coalition For Health Awareness\u2019 event in Clearwater tonight and tomorrow. Unfortunately, it\u2019s completely sold out. I\u2019ll post links to the video when they\u2019re available.<\/p>\n

🗞*COVID NEWS AND COMMENTARY* 🗞<\/strong><\/p>\n

🔥 Well, well, well. Steve Kirsch, executive director of the Vaccine Safety Foundation, has thrown down the cash-stuffed glove. He\u2019s publicly betting FIVE MILLION DOLLARS that Gavin Newsom can\u2019t prove that he wasn\u2019t vaccine injured after getting his booster shot a few weeks ago, right before he mysteriously disappeared from public, missing his swanky climate conference on short notice. He didn\u2019t even Zoom in for ten minutes.<\/p>\n

All Gavin Newsom has to do to get the money is sign a short form authorizing his doctors to release any and all information about treatments for a vaccine injury in the period following his booster. That\u2019s it. If he does it, he gets $5 million bucks.<\/p>\n

In a Substack article describing the bet, Kirsch points out that (1) Newsom\u2019s kids aren\u2019t injected; (2) his kids were in school during the period he was supposedly spending time with them; (3) the posh climate conference for elites ran for two weeks, and Newsom could have but didn\u2019t attend any of it; (4) he was completely absent from all public events even though lots of important stuff is going on; (5) his wife deleted a tweet that kind of, sort of, covered for him; (6) he was never seen walking in the videos of first public appearances after he came back; (7) a bunch of doctors have looked at before\/after videos and noted signs of Bells Palsy; and a few other less-well-corroborated points.<\/p>\n

To date, Newsom has ignored the offer for easy cash. So. Your move, governor.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🔥 The UK Telegraph ran an article Tuesday headlined, \u201cAlarm Grows As Mortuaries Fill With Thousands Of Extra Non-Covid Deaths.\u201d It reports that \u201cNearly 10,000 more people than usual have died in the past four months from non-Covid reasons.\u201d And, \u201cIn the most recent week, there were 891 excess deaths at home that did not involve Covid-19 \u2013 that\u2019s about 127 a day.\u201d It\u2019s just SO weird, right? What could be causing all those excess deaths? The experts are baffled again.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll give you one guess as to what kind of cause of death features strongly in the data. That\u2019s right. Heart failure.<\/p>\n

The ambulances can\u2019t keep up. The article notes that \u201cheart attack sufferers [are] now waiting an average of 53 minutes before help arrives – nearly three times the NHS target.\u201d<\/p>\n

The article avoids mentioning the painfully obvious possibility, because mentioning it would get them canceled, and instead speculates about delayed treatment. Uh huh. If that were true, there would be a corresponding dip in deaths before this bulge. There\u2019s not. So it\u2019s a silly idea. But that\u2019s all they\u2019re allowed to go with, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

The UK is about a month and a half ahead of us in injections. I wonder what we\u2019ll see here? Or, is the CDC even tracking excess deaths any more?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🔥 Florida filed a new lawsuit yesterday challenging the Biden CMS injection mandate. This is the mandate affecting healthcare workers by threatening hospitals with withholding Medicare reimbursement dollars if they don\u2019t inject all the doctors and nurses who probably already got Covid last year anyway. The new lawsuit was filed in Pensacola division \u2014 where my Ascension case is pending \u2014 and was assigned to Magistrate Judge Hope T. Cannon, a University of Alabama graduate who was appointed in 2019.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🪳 The cork is completely out of the test tube now, as Fauci continues to talk about \u201cwaning\u201d injection effectiveness against \u2014 not just infections \u2014 but hospitalizations and deaths. An Epoch Times article yesterday was headlined, \u201cFauci: COVID-19 Hospitalizations Rising Among Vaccinated People.\u201d<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t say.<\/p>\n

Epoch reported that Fauci told NBC News that \u201cWhat we\u2019re starting to see now is an uptick in hospitalizations among people who\u2019ve been vaccinated but not boosted.\u201d He claimed that despite the waning effectiveness, the injections can still \u201cprotect you, your family, and your community.\u201d Yes, but HOW?<\/p>\n

The paper then noted that on Wednesday, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said during a briefing that \u201cAlthough the highest risk are those people who are unvaccinated, we are seeing an increase in emergency department visits among adults 65 and older, which are now again higher than they are for younger age groups.\u201d Adults 65 and older are the MOST highly injected group.<\/p>\n

The injections had ONE JOB. So what are we going to do about this failure of the injections to do their ONLY JOB? Well, inject more, of course. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to start right now getting anybody who\u2019s eligible \u2026 to get them boosted,\u201d Fauci told NBC. And then he called for people, REGARDLESS OF THEIR VACCINATION STATUS, to wear masks.<\/p>\n

Haha, that\u2019s not happening in Florida, since the Legislature just banned mask mandates.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s boosters all the way down now, ladies and gentlemen. In an interview with Axios this week, Fauci said \u201cboosters are ultimately going to become a part of the standard regimen and not just a bonus.\u201d Bonus? Who thinks boosters are a \u201cbonus?\u201d What rubbish.<\/p>\n

Then yesterday, Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont (democrat) said that eligible people who haven\u2019t received a booster within six months are no longer \u201cfully vaccinated.\u201d \u201cIf you were vaccinated more than six months ago, now is the time to get that booster,\u201d he said in a press conference. \u201cGet it before Thanksgiving, before Christmas, before all those holidays.\u201d It\u2019s like a present. A bonus present.<\/p>\n

In a related story, Epoch also reported that UK Prime Minister Johnson announced at a press briefing yesterday that the British people must get a booster to be \u201cfully vaccinated\u201d \u2014 and that the term \u201cfully vaccinated\u201d will be an \u201cevolving term\u201d subject to periodic adjustments. In other words, we\u2019ll let you know when you\u2019re good and fully injected. And then, you might not be, ten minutes later. You never know.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we can see from what\u2019s happening, the two jabs sadly do start to wane, so we\u2019ve got to be responsible and we\u2019ve got to reflect that fact in the way we measure what constitutes full vaccination,\u201d Johnson explained sadly.<\/p>\n

And then, in a remarkable press conference about rising cases, New Mexico Governor Michelle Grisham (democrat) explained that people who were vaccinated six or more months ago may be the ones responsible for the increasing number of cases in that state.<\/p>\n

Think about that.<\/p>\n

They\u2019re blaming cases on the INJECTED now. In other words, according to Governor Grisham, it\u2019s not a pandemic of the unvaccinated any more. It\u2019s a pandemic of the unboosted, or unboostered, or booster-deficient, or something.<\/p>\n

You see what this means, right? The Narrative just tipped over and slid off the cake tray, splattering into a big gooey mess right next to the Thanksgiving table. It\u2019s inedible now. They\u2019re trying to bake up a new narrative.<\/p>\n

But this new narrative isn\u2019t going to work. They number of folks who\u2019ll sign on to boosters every six months for life is extremely low. It\u2019s laughable. Most sane folks took the shots to help out, be part of the solution, and avoid offending their friends and relatives. They weren\u2019t looking for chronic lifelong medication that can possibly make you sick for a week at the best, or maybe give you Bells Palsy or even worse.<\/p>\n

I took a look into the article\u2019s comments, and it was just as I expected. The top comment said, \u201cI nearly died with the first two shots, and now you want to finish the job with a booster. When are these folks going to be held accountable for tyranny and treason?\u201d<\/p>\n

Yep. It\u2019s all tipped over now. Who\u2019s going to clean up the mess?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

💊 Sloppy trial-running Pfizer announced early this morning that the incoherent Biden Administration has agreed to buy FIVE BILLION DOLLARS worth of its new and improved Covid treatment drug Paxlovid. The big spend buys ten million doses of the unproven drug. According to its press release, the FDA \u201crecommended\u201d that Pfizer stop enrollment in the drug trials due to \u201cthe overwhelming efficacy demonstrated in these results.\u201d Well, if the FDA says its safe and effective, that\u2019s good enough for me.<\/p>\n

Pfizer\u2019s press release says its drug is \u201cthe first oral antiviral of its kind,\u201d intended to be used at home to \u201creduce illness severity, hospitalizations, and deaths, as well as reduce the probability of infection following exposure.\u201d How do they know this? They say it \u201chas demonstrated potent antiviral in vitro activity.\u201d So, \u201cin vitro\u201d is good now. That used to be a way for ivermectin skeptics to write off that drug\u2019s demonstrated efficacy. In vitro isn\u2019t the same as \u201cin vivo,\u201d or something.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here\u2019s a link to today\u2019s press release, you link junkies: https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/4v45sk3a. Get help.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

🔥 Finally, ABC News reported yesterday that the CDC is investigating a FLU outbreak at a Michigan university \u2014 nearly all in the past two weeks. The outbreak at the fully-injected school includes over 500 influenza cases. According to ABC, several other Michigan schools have also seen flu surges. Twenty-five percent of the infected had gotten their flu shots, too. Safe and effective ones, to be sure.<\/p>\n

\u201dThis outbreak comes at a time when COVID-19 infections are again surging in Michigan, with case rates, positivity rates, hospitalizations and deaths all increasing,\u201d the state health department said Wednesday. Safe and effective! \u201cState and local public health officials are concerned with the potential for increased strain on health systems if COVID-19 and influenza cases surge at the same time this winter.\u201d<\/p>\n

The article doesn\u2019t say anything about recent studies suggesting that the Covid jabs can interfere with the body\u2019s immune response. Probably just a coincidence; ABC doesn\u2019t know about those studies or something. Probably.<\/p>\n

Have a fabulous Friday and I\u2019ll see you back here tomorrow. Thanks for helping with Operation Multiplier! You\u2019re going to feel SO GOOD after you pitched in.<\/strong><\/p>\n
