Enslavement or Elimination Depending on Usefulness
John R. Houk, Blog Editor
© January 30, 2023
Tyranny in America is a concept that was an inconceivable
notion for me to grasp. Largely because I my childhood and teenage days was in
the ‘60s and 70s. Experiencing those decades of youth developed the illusion
that the victories of the Civil Rights Movement insured that Liberty and
Freedom became ensconced in granite.
Little did I comprehend at the time that the Left-Wing
impetus that brought Civil Rights victories would embolden a Left-Wing agenda
to eradicate Religious Liberty, eradicate Constitutional Originalism, eradicate
the Right to Self-Protection (as in 2nd Amendment Bearing Arms),
the Right to Pursue Happiness (as in entrepreneurial innovations),
the Right of Informed Consent in Medical Decisions, the Right to Life (As
in killing unborn babies), the eradication of Election Integrity and
that is just at the top of my thoughts. YOU can probably name some eradicated
Rights by Leftist activism I cannot recall at the moment.
How did this ILLUSION of Granite come upon me and many other
Americans? Manipulative propaganda by what can be called an unelected Deep
State that probably includes a seemingly untouchable Government Bureaucracy,
the Powerful Wealth of Left-Oriented Corporations that own Bureaucracies (a
reverse Fascism: Corporate Wealth managing Government rather than
Government managing Business) and Marxist-Globalists tying the bow of Oligarchic-Elites
transforming cultural-society of the duped masses who have no idea they are
being enslaved or eliminated depending on usefulness.
I read an interesting post by Dr. Joseph Mercola today in
which he outlines his experience of an attempt to shut him up by untruthful vilifications
and bannings. I found the post interesting because it generally mirrors Medical
Tyranny silencing facts from getting into public knowledge. The post is entitled,
“The
Censorship of Mercola — A Timeline”.
Another interesting post I read today is from Emerald
Robinson’s Substack page dated 1/30/23 but is a sharing of a Twitter post of an
interview of what she calls an “anonymous journalist” that goes by the handle “NameRedacted247”.
The title should spark some interest to watch/listen to the interview, ‘"Name
Redacted" Exposes Google's Intel Community Censorship Cabal: Why
does the world's largest search engine need 165 rabid Obama/Clinton spooks on
the payroll?’
And last on my I-find-this-interesting list is a post from Michael
Snyder that delves from a look at Terminator
science fiction becoming some potentially science fact under the
title, “There
Is Far More Going on Behind the Scenes Than Most People Ever Imagined”.
You can read and decide for yourself on the credibility. With al the shattered
illusions of the past few decades you must be compelled to ponder and wonder. Due
to length, I can’t cross post Snyder’s post, BUT YOU SHOULD READ IT!

The Censorship of Mercola — A Timeline
Analysis by Dr. Joseph

STORY AT-A-GLANCE
Ø While
the drug and chemical industries have attacked and tried to discredit me for
years, blatant censorship didn’t begin until 2020, after the outbreak of the
COVID pandemic
Ø The
timeline of censorship and free-speech right violations against me began in the
summer of 2020, when the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI)
called on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) to take action against me for recommending vitamin D

nutritional supplements might lower your risk of COVID. The FDA also issued us
a warning letter about the same
Ø Fabrications
by the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) have been the primary
“evidence” cited by government officials intent on censoring me. The CCDH is
linked to a number of technocratic centers within the globalist network through
its board members
Ø In
August 2021, after conducting an internal investigation, Facebook’s content
policy director called out the falsehoods in the CCDH “Disinformation Dozen”
report. CCDH preselected the 12 individuals listed in the report, and the
narrative was based on nothing more than “a narrow set of 483 pieces of content
over six weeks from only 30 groups, some of which are as small as 2,500 users”
While the drug and chemical industries have attacked and
tried to discredit me for years, blatant censorship didn't begin until 2020,
after the outbreak of the COVID pandemic.
For legal and historical purposes, I am sharing a timeline
of events with you that document a chain of coordinated events and attacks
against me and this website. My first article about the pandemic came out
February 4, 2020, in which I predicted that it was a grossly exaggerated threat
that would enrich pandemic vaccine makers.
March 8, 2020, I published an interview with bioweapons expert Francis Boyle,
Ph.D., in which he warned that SARS-CoV-2 had all the hallmarks of a
genetically engineered bioweapon. Boyle was among the first, if not the first,
to suspect the outbreak was the result of a lab leak.
While every health authority on the planet insisted there
was no treatment, and that patients simply go to the hospital to be placed on
mechanical ventilation and die, I interviewed medical experts working on early
treatment options and published articles detailing the potential benefits of vitamin D, zinc, quercetin and other
nutraceuticals that boost immune function, as well as decades-old drugs like
hydroxychloroquine.
I also published the testimony of whistleblowers such as
Erin Marie Olszewski, a frontline nurse, who warned that patients were being
intentionally killed on ventilators as it quickly proved to be a deadly
intervention for COVID-19.
Summer of 2020 — The Suppression of Vitamin D Begins
Early on, it became apparent that vitamin D levels and
spending time outdoors played an important role in the risk of infection and
the ultimate outcomes. This has been true for all respiratory infections, so it
should come as no surprise it is also true for coronavirus infections. Despite
that, health authorities insisted vitamin D was useless.
The only way out of the pandemic, they said, would be a
vaccine — and this despite the fact that no previous attempts at creating a
safe and effective coronavirus vaccine had ever succeeded because of its rapid
ability to mutate.
In June 2020, I launched an information campaign, StopCovidCold,
about vitamin D. I released a downloadable scientific report detailing how and
why optimizing vitamin D levels among the general population could minimize the
impact of the next wave of COVID. Optimizing vitamin D is a rational, safe and
inexpensive measure that no sane health official would object to. And yet, they
all did.
July 21, 2020, the Center for Science in the Public Interest
(CSPI) issued a press release1 calling on the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) "to bring
enforcement proceedings against Mercola and his companies for their unlawful
disease claims that falsely and misleadingly claim to treat, cure or prevent
COVID-19 infections."
CSPI accused me of falsely claiming "that at least 22
vitamins, supplements and other products available for sale on his web site can
prevent, treat, or cure COVID-19 infection." This despite the fact that
their Appendix of Illegal Claims2 clearly show I made no
COVID-19-related claims to any specific products and only referenced published
studies and mainstream media articles to support my opinions.
In an August 12, 2020, email, CSPI president Dr. Peter Lurie
— a former FDA associate commissioner — also made the spurious claim that I was
"profiting from the pandemic" through "anti-vaccine
fearmongering:" 3
"Mercola brazenly has
claimed that many of his products are coronavirus treatments or cures,
including vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, selenium, 'molecular hydrogen,' licorice,
and other substances.
Besides profiting from the
pandemic, Mercola has seemingly advised people to contract COVID-19 after
taking supposedly 'immunity boosting' supplements (which of course he sells).
Making matters worse, Mercola is a leading proponent of anti-vaccine conspiracy
theories — and has been fearmongering against prospective COVID-19 vaccines
even before such vaccines are available!"
By mid-August, a comprehensive campaign to put an end to
Mercola.com had been launched, with Laurie asking CSPI members to flood the FDA
and FTC with prewritten Tweets, urging them to take action against us. He also
urged "state attorneys general to investigate how they may further protect
consumers from Mercola's illegal marketing."4

Not surprisingly, CSPI is funded by the Rockefeller
Foundation, the Rockefeller Family Fund, Bloomberg Philanthropies and other
billionaire-owned foundations. It's also partnered with Bill Gates'
agrichemical PR group, the Cornell Alliance for Science. Greg Jaffe, who heads
up CSPI's Biotechnology Project, is also the associate director of legal
affairs at Alliance for Science.
Winter of 2020 — Vitamin D Attacks Heat Up
The attacks against me really heated up though after I
published a peer-reviewed scientific paper5 on the benefits of
vitamin D at the end of October 2020. With that, I established my medical and
scientific merit and my right to a professional opinion, which is something the
U.S. Constitution absolutely provides for.
The paper, "Evidence Regarding Vitamin D and Risk of
COVID-19 and Its Severity," published in the journal Nutrients, was
coauthored by William Grant, Ph.D., and Dr. Carol Wagner, both of whom are part
of the GrassrootsHealth expert vitamin D panel.
As noted in that paper, dark skin color, increased age,
pre-existing chronic conditions and vitamin D deficiency are all features of
severe COVID disease, and of these, vitamin D deficiency is the only factor
that is modifiable. As such, it would be foolish to ignore, especially since
vitamin D supplements are readily available and low cost.
Christmas Eve 2020, attorney general Letitia James sent us a
cease and desist notice, demanding we stop sharing information about how
immune-boosting nutritional supplements might lower your risk of COVID, including
vitamin D, zinc, NAC and vitamin C.

February 2021, FDA Tries to Silence Protected Speech
After the new presidential administration took over, on
February 18, 2021, the Rockefeller-funded CSPI and AG James got their wish, as
the FDA sent us a warning letter for
"Unapproved and Misbranded Products Related to Coronavirus Disease
2019."6 Laurie even publicly bragged7 about
his ability to influence the FDA to take action against us.
The FDA's letter highlighted statements in articles on my
website that were fully referenced and supported by published science, and none
of the articles cited had any commercial advertising linking the information to
my products, as per the law. We had done nothing illegal or irregular in that regard,
and my professional opinions are protected under the U.S. Constitution.
Needless to say, we fully addressed both James' cease and
desist notice and the FDA's warning letter, putting them both on notice that
they cannot censor protected speech simply because they don't like what's being
said.
On a side note, William Correll, the director of the Office
of Compliance at the FDA who signed the warning letter, sadly "passed away
suddenly" just two months later, on April 18 "after a short battle
with COVID-19."8
Gates-Funded Front Group Gets on the Bandwagon
The agrochemical front group Cornell Alliance for Science
(CAS),9 the primary funding for which comes from the Bill &
Melinda Gates Foundation,10 also jumped on the bandwagon,
falsely stating11 that "pages advertising vitamin C and
quercetin as having 'synergistic effects that make them useful in the
prevention and early at-home treatment of COVID-19'" were still available
on my website nearly a month after the FDA's warning letter.
To be clear, we had fully referenced scientific news
articles. News articles are NOT "advertising," as they do not link to
any specific products, nor do they refer to or recommend any specific brands.
In the case of the warning for vitamin C, the article discussed hospitals utilizing
IV vitamin C for the treatment of COVID-19 and sepsis.
Such coordinated attacks are to be expected, though,
considering Gates' influence over the operation, and seeing how CAS and CSPI
work closely together — a fact CAS admitted in its hit piece.12
March 2021, Booksellers Urged to Ban My Book
Around that same time (February 11, 2021), my book "The
Truth About COVID-19" also went up for presale, and by early March,
booksellers in the U.S., U.K. and Australia were being pressured not to sell
it, or to add some sort of misinformation warning label to it. As reported by
Sky News March 5, 2021:13
"In the UK, more than 20
million vaccine doses have been administered as part of efforts to defeat
COVID-19, but worries continue that misinformation is stopping some people from
having the jab. Shadow health minister Alex Norris told Sky News:
'Getting our population
vaccinated is a massive priority and it is very sad to see these things so
freely available. We would hope that retailers would act responsibly and have a
look at whether they want to be associated with such products and whether they
want to be seen to be profiting off such products.'"
Shady 'Anti-Hate' Outfit Publishes Hit List
March 3, 2021, the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH)
— a shady U.K.-based organization with anonymous funding led by Imran Ahmed —
also got in on the action, publishing a hit list14 of the
"Top 10 anti-vaxxers" it wanted permanently silenced and eradicated
from public forums. The list showed, by way of crossing out names, which had
already been successfully deplatformed, and from which social media.
Facebook-Instagram
Smear List: Top 10 Anti-Vaxxers
While precious little was (and still is) know about the CCDH,
some digging revealed Ahmed had been appointed to the steering committee of the
U.K. government's Commission on Countering Extremism Pilot Task Force in April
2020, just as fearmongering about the COVID-19 pandemic was ramping up. The
CCDH is also linked to a number of technocratic centers within the globalist
network through its board members.15
More Fabrications and Lies From the CCDH
A couple of weeks later (March 15), Ahmed somehow managed to
get an article titled "Dismantling the Anti-Vaxx Industry"16 published
in the journal Nature Medicine. In it, Ahmed lied, claiming he'd "recorded
a private, three-day meeting of the world's most prominent anti-vaxxers,"
when in fact it was a public, international conference given online, attended by
thousands around the world, all of whom had access to the recordings.
He could have done the normal, ethical and truly
journalistic thing and admitted he simply attended a public virtual conference,
but instead he twisted it into some risky undercover agent mission where he
secretly recorded private discussions that revealed the inner workings of
"the opposition."
Then, March 21, 2021, the CCDH published the fabricated
"Disinformation Dozen" report,17,18,19 in which Ahmed
falsely claimed 12 people and/or organizations, including yours truly, were
responsible for 65% of all anti-vaccine content on social media.
March 24, 2021 — AGs Try to Censor Protected Speech
March 24, 2021, 12 attorneys general sent a letter20 to
the CEOs of Twitter and Facebook, seeking their "cooperation in curtailing
the dissemination" of COVID jab "misinformation" — all based on
the fabrications of the CCDH. According to the AGs:
"The people and groups
spreading falsehoods and misleading Americans about the safety of coronavirus
vaccines are threatening the health of our communities, slowing progress in
getting our residents protected from the virus, and undermining economic
recovery in our states.
As safe and effective vaccines
become available, the end of this pandemic is in sight. This end, however,
depends on the widespread acceptance of these vaccines as safe and effective.
Unfortunately, misinformation disseminated via your platforms has increased
vaccine hesitancy …
According to a recent report by
the Center for Countering Digital Hate, so-called 'anti-vaxxer' accounts on
Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Twitter reach more than 59 million followers …
Given 'anti-vaxxers' reliance on your platforms, you are uniquely positioned to
prevent the spread of misinformation about coronavirus vaccines …"
Facebook Set the Record Straight
August 18, 2021, after conducting an internal investigation,
Monika Bickert, vice president of Facebook content policy, publicly called out
the falsehoods in "The Disinformation Dozen" report, stating:21
"In recent weeks, there has
been a debate about whether the global problem of COVID-19 vaccine
misinformation can be solved simply by removing 12 people from social media
platforms. People who have advanced this narrative contend that these 12 people
are responsible for 73% of online vaccine misinformation on Facebook.
There isn't any evidence to
support this claim … In fact, these 12 people are responsible for about just 0.05%
of all views of vaccine-related content on Facebook. This includes all
vaccine-related posts they've shared, whether true or false, as well as URLs
associated with these people."
Bickert highlighted the fact that Ahmed had preselected the
12 individuals listed in the report, and that his "faulty narrative"
was based on nothing more than "a narrow set of 483 pieces of content over
six weeks from only 30 groups, some of which are as small as 2,500 users."
"Further, there is no
explanation for how the organization behind the report identified the content
they describe as 'anti-vax' or how they chose the 30 groups they included in
their analysis," Bickert noted. "There is no
justification for their claim that their data constitute a 'representative
sample' of the content shared across our apps."
Apparently, no one in government was smart enough to see the
flaws in the CCDH's report though, and a long list of officials cited the
CCDH's fabricated claims throughout the remainder of 2021, even long after
Facebook denounced its claims. What's more, even though Facebook admitted the
CCDH's claims were bogus, they still took action against accounts by applying
penalties and/or bans.
April 8, 2021 — AGs Call on Social Media to Ban 'the 12'
April 8, 2021, attorneys general James and William Tong
published an op-ed in The Washington Post,22 again calling on
social media companies to ban the "disinformation dozen" identified
by the CCDH. The lack of acceptance of novel gene therapy technology, they
claimed, was all because a small group of individuals with a social media
presence — myself included — were successfully misleading the public with lies
about nonexistent vaccine risks.
April 27, 2021 — Dr. Hotez Calls for Cyberwarfare
April 27, 2021, Dr. Peter Hotez, president of the Sabin
Vaccine Institute23 — which has received tens of millions of
dollars from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation,24,25 —
escalated the threat even further in an article published in the journal
Nature.
Citing the CCDH's findings, Hotez called for cyberwarfare
experts to be enlisted in the war against vaccine safety advocates and people
who are "vaccine hesitant." He wrote:26
"Accurate, targeted
counter-messaging from the global health community is important but
insufficient, as is public pressure on social-media companies. The United
Nations and the highest levels of government must … move to dismantle
anti-vaccine groups in the United States.
Efforts must expand into the
realm of cyber security, law enforcement, public education and international
relations. A high-level inter-agency task force reporting to the UN
secretary-general could assess the full impact of anti-vaccine aggression, and
propose tough, balanced measures.
The task force should include
experts who have tackled complex global threats such as terrorism, cyber
attacks and nuclear armament, because anti-science is now approaching similar
levels of peril. It is becoming increasingly clear that advancing immunization
requires a counteroffensive."
In short, Hotez called for the use of warfare tactics on law
abiding American citizens, and the Nature journal actually published this
blatant threat. One day later, April 28, the CCDH published a second report,
"Disinformation Dozen: The Sequel,"27 which focused
on Big Tech's failure to get rid of us "despite bipartisan calls from
Congress."
To understand the massive reach the CCDH gained, despite no
one having heard of them before COVID, consider this: By the end of August
2021, there were 84,700 Google search results for CCDH's defamatory phrase
"disinformation dozen," including 16,000 news stories in the international press, nearly
all of which parroted the CCDH's defamatory statements verbatim and reported
them as fact.
May 2021 — Financial Warfare Led to Removal of COVID
Articles
Shortly after the op-ed by AGs James and Tong appeared, our
business bank accounts were abruptly shut down and our credit cards canceled.
Our business partners also had their PayPal accounts shut down.
This new threat, which I could not defend against in a court
of law, led to my May 4 decision to remove all articles related to vitamin D, vitamin C, zinc and
COVID-19 from my website.
July 2021 — The White House Publicly Calls for Censorship
In mid-July 2021, the White House stepped in to pressure
Facebook to purge "anti-vaxxers" from its platform. Then-press
secretary Jen Psaki regurgitated the CCDH's false claims, saying:28
"There's about 12 people
who are producing 65% of anti-vaccine misinformation on social media platforms.
All of them remain active on Facebook, despite some even being banned on other
platforms, including ones that Facebook owns.
Facebook needs to move more
quickly to remove harmful, violative posts. Posts that would be within their
policy for removal often remain up for days, and that's too long. The
information spreads too quickly."
In another mid-July press conference, President Joe Biden
himself demanded social media take action against "the disinformation dozen,"
claiming our "misinformation" was "killing people."29,30 None
of these officials ever questioned the authority of the CCDH. Facebook
spokesperson Dani Lever responded to the White House's demands, saying:
"We will not be distracted
by accusations which aren't supported by the facts. The fact is that more than 2
billion people have viewed authoritative information about COVID-19 and
vaccines on Facebook, which is more than any other place on the internet … The
facts show that Facebook is helping save lives. Period."
Frenkel
Tweet Capture Lying on Mercola
July 24, 2021, The New York Times named me the No. 1 superspreader of COVID
misinformation online.31 According to the NYT
itself, this was the most-read article of the year up to that point. Penned by
Sheera Frenkel, it was so littered with blatant lies, my attorneys sent her a
retraction demand.32
For example, she claimed the FDA has levied
multimillion-dollar fines against me. This is a complete fabrication, as I've
never been fined by the FDA. She also implied that I misrepresented myself as a
published author of a paper on vitamin D for COVID-19, stating she was
"unable to verify" my claim. This despite being given a direct link
to the paper! My paper can also be located on PubMed.gov in seconds by
searching my name.
Frenkel boldly claimed that I am the No.1 spreader of
misinformation online, but she didn't even qualify what
"misinformation" actually is. Without qualifying what it is you're
looking for, how can you quantify it? She also provided no proof that I in fact
had the greatest reach of all the individuals reporting on COVID injections. My
name didn't even show up in the Top 15 in a Crowdtangle search for anti-vax
Facebook posts.
Frenkel's hit piece was followed up by CNN, which August 4
aired a segment show CNN reporter Randi Kaye stalking me across central Florida.
And, of course, Kaye's primary citation for her accusations against me was the
CCDH.
August 4, 2021 — Mercola Deletes Articles After 48 Hours
August 4, 2021, I also implemented yet another change on my
website. I had already removed all articles relating to COVID-19 and vitamin D.
At this point, I deleted over 15,000 articles from the past 20-plus years from
my website as the business and personal threats grew out of hand.
After 48 hours, articles were instead migrated over to
Substack, where only paid members through a private membership agreement have
access to them. This was a painful but necessary workaround, as the paid
subscription provides a layer of protection against these threats.
September 7, 2021 — Senator Warren's Book Burning
Campaign
September 7, 2021, U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren sent a letter33 to
Andy Jassy, chief executive officer of Amazon.com, demanding an "immediate
review" of Amazon's algorithms to weed out books peddling "COVID
misinformation."34,35,36
While she didn't spell out what laws Amazon might be
breaking, she warned Jassy that the company may be held legally responsible for
wrongful death and homicide by selling books that "misinform" readers
about COVID-19, and she specifically singled out "The Truth About
COVID-19" as a prime example of the kinds of books she wanted banned.
Warren again relied on the fabrications of the CCDH, even
though Facebook had refuted the CCDH report as baseless three weeks before she
sent that letter.
"Dr. Mercola has been
described as 'the most influential spreader of coronavirus misinformation
online,'" Warren wrote, adding: "Not only was this
book the top result when searching either 'COVID-19' or 'vaccine' in the
categories of 'All Departments' and 'Books'; it was tagged as a 'Best Seller'
by Amazon and the '#1 Best Seller' in the 'Political Freedom' category.
The book perpetuates dangerous
conspiracies about COVID-19 and false and misleading information about
vaccines. It asserts that vitamin C, vitamin D and quercetin … can prevent
COVID-19 infection … And the book contends that vaccines cannot be trusted,
when study after study has demonstrated the overwhelming effectiveness and
safety of COVID-19 vaccines.
It should come as no surprise
that the book is rife with misinformation. One of the authors, Dr. Mercola, is
one of the 'Disinformation Dozen,' a group responsible for 65% of anti-vaccine
content on Facebook and Twitter …"
YouTube Deplatforms Mercola in Breach of Contract
Warren's attempt at getting Amazon to ban my book was
swiftly followed up by YouTube, which deleted my account September
29, 2021, allegedly for violating community guidelines. The problem was, they'd
published and implemented those new guidelines that very morning.
While I disagreed with YouTube's censorship, when its
"COVID-19 misinformation" policy was implemented back in April 2021,
I carefully avoided posting any content on YouTube that might violate that
guideline. At no point had I ever received a violation notice from YouTube.
On the morning of September 29, 2022, at 9 a.m. EDT, The
Washington Post published an article titled "YouTube Is Banning Joseph
Mercola and a Handful of Other Anti-Vaccine Activists." According to the
WaPo:37
"YouTube is taking down
several video channels associated with high-profile anti-vaccine activists
including Joseph Mercola … As part of a new set of policies aimed at cutting
down on anti-vaccine content on the Google-owned site, YouTube will ban any
videos that claim that commonly used vaccines approved by health authorities
are ineffective or dangerous.
The company previously blocked
videos that made those claims about coronavirus vaccines, but not ones for
other vaccines like those for measles or chickenpox."
In short, as of September 29, 2021, you could no longer post
any video discussing or stating that any vaccine is dangerous or ineffective.
Six minutes after the publication of that WaPo article, I received an email
from YouTube informing me that my entire channel had been deplatformed, having
been found in violation of this new policy.
October 2021 — CNN's Second Hit Piece
October 4, 2021, two months to the day after their first
attempted hit piece against my book, "The Truth About
COVID-19," CNN aired a follow-up in which they echoed
Warren's call for Amazon to ban the sale of my book.
Like something straight out of George Orwell's
"1984" newsspeak dictionary, CNN host Anderson Cooper said my book is
loaded with "mistruths" about COVID. Yet he failed to present a
single piece of evidence to back up that claim.
This is one of the oldest propaganda trick in the book. If
you just spew out enough derogatory terms about your opponent, people will
forget the fact that you provided zero proof to back up your position.
November 2021 — Mercola Sues Sen. Warren
November 7, 2021, two months after Warren tried to get my
best-selling book "The Truth About COVID-19" banned from Amazon, I,
my coauthor Ronnie Cummins, my publisher and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who wrote
our foreword, sued Warren,38 both in her official and personal
capacities, for violating our First Amendment rights and scaring book sellers
into pulling and/or suppressing sales.
As a government official, it is illegal for her violate the
U.S. Constitution, and pressuring private businesses to do it for her is not a
legal workaround.
February 2022 — NIH Director Blames Mercola For Pandemic
Continuation
In February 2022, former National Institutes of Health
director Dr. Francis Collins blamed me personally for the
government's inability to bring the COVID pandemic to a close. This despite the
fact that I was by then heavily censored just about everywhere. The only
people, really, who could see my information were those who subscribed to my
newsletter and received it by email.
August 2022 — NYT Airs Hit Piece Documentary
Fast-forward to August 2022, The New York Times published
the documentary "Superspreader,"
featuring yours truly, on FX and Hulu (both of which are owned by Disney). They
clearly went through a lot of trouble, trying to dig up dirt from anyone they
could find from my past — some going back 40 years, to my medical school days —
who would be able to share some tidbit with which they could discredit me with.
But it seems they came up empty handed: After a year of
investigation, they couldn't come up with anything. Surprisingly, they even
showed two people who claimed I'd saved their lives. All the other interviews
were with people who don't actually know me. One was with a Chicago journalist
who interviewed me once — 13 years ago. Two classmates from med school, whom I
haven't seen in over 40 years, also described their impressions.
Ironically, yet again, just one week before the
"Superspreader" program aired, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention reversed all of its COVID-19 guidelines, thereby proving my
position on COVID was correct all along. Of course, this was never mentioned in
their program though.
September 23, 2022 — Mercola Website Taken Down in
Cyberattack
Next up was a cyberattack that took down my entire website
and destroyed our servers. Cyberattacks have been ongoing for the past six
years, but the one that took place September 23, 2022, finally got through our
defenses. By that time, my reach on social media had been throttled back to
next to nothing, and my website was about the only place you could find my
articles (with the exception of republications, which I allowed).
September 28, 2022 — Mercola Sues Google and YouTube
Warren isn't the only one I've had to sue to protect my
First Amendment right. In September 28, 2022, I also filed a lawsuit39 against
Google, YouTube and Alphabet Inc. for breach of contract.40
As detailed in my complaint, YouTube unilaterally amended
the contract without notice, which is a violation of its own terms of service,
and then used this last-minute amendment to justify removing my content, which
went back to 2005, the same year YouTube was founded. At the time YouTube
deleted my content, I had more than 300,000 subscribers, and my videos had
collectively garnered more than 50 million views.
The WaPo article was embargoed until the morning of
September 29 in order to prevent me (and anyone else affected by this change)
from reviewing the new policy, take steps to bring my channel into compliance,
or move my content to another platform. Instead, they simply deleted 16 years'
worth of intellectual property, without warning.
This is a clear violation of its own terms of service, which
state that YouTube "will provide reasonable advance notice" of any
changes to the terms of service, and that users will have "the opportunity
to review them" and to remove content if they do not agree to the new
terms.
YouTube's terms of service also include a "three
strikes" policy, where users are given three warnings and opportunities to
remove content that violates the guidelines before being banned. I had no
"strikes" against my channel on the day I was deplatformed and
deleted.
I'm also suing YouTube for unjust enrichment, as for the
last 16 years, my video content, having generated in excess of 50 million
views, has been of great financial benefit to YouTube, allowing them to
increase advertising revenue on the site. Additionally, they've refused to
allow me to retrieve any of this content, which they still have in their
possession. So, YouTube has unjustly benefited at my expense.
January 2023 — Third Lawsuit Filed to Protect Free Speech
January 10, 2023, I, along with several other plaintiffs,
also filed a lawsuit41 against The Washington Post, the BBC,
the Associated Press and Reuters — also known as the Trusted News Initiative
(TNI),42 a self-appointed Pharma and Big Tech industry partner
that has spent the past couple years playing judge and jury of news.
It has been doing everything it can to censor what it doesn't
want the public to hear. As noted in the complaint, the TNI has not only
censored free speech, it has also engaged in antitrust activity. Specifically,
"Federal antitrust law has its own name for this kind of 'industry
partnership': it's called a 'group boycott' and is a per se violation of the
Sherman Act."
As evidence of this allegation, our complaint references
multiple public statements by TNI partners, including a March 2022 statement by
Jamie Angus, then-senior news controller for BBC News, who explained TNI's
"strategy to beat disinformation."
The Fight for Truth and Freedom Continues
The globalist cabal is extremely coordinated, as you can
see. What's more, they play dirty. But we will not give up, nor give in. Our
freedom is far too precious for that, and freedom depends on getting the truth
out. So, I will continue doing my part. You can help by sharing articles you
think are important with family and friends, in whatever ways are available.
