FAUCI UPDATE

Newsweek: Firing Fauci May Help Biden Manage the Next COVID Wave and His Poll Numbers

Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in major part in the 2020 election by saying he would “shut down the virus and not the economy,” proclaiming that America could quickly get back to normal, and promising that the “Warp Speed” experimental gene-therapy vaccines rushed to market by Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson, the FDA, and Fauci’s NIH would be voluntary, safe from side effects, and universally or 90%+ effective in terms of stopping the virus and preventing infection and reinfection. Now Biden’s approval ratings are plummeting, and the Democratic Party’s entire green and economic justice programs are in jeopardy, in large part because of his inept and authoritarian handling of the pandemic. 

The Biden administration’s disastrous COVID policies have included continuous fear-mongering and denial of the effective acquired immunity possessed by 100 million plus Americans who have already had COVID and recovered; bogus claims that unvaccinated children and students are in mortal danger; and mandating universal vaccine injections even as the highly transmissible but weaker Delta virus has spread across the country among vaccinated and unvaccinated people alike, with deaths and serious side-effects from the experimental vaccines skyrocketing. 

Cementing Biden’s unpopularity, on Labor Day he cut off unemployment benefits to millions of working class and low-income Americans economically hammered by the lockdowns, and more recently is arrogantly threatened the livelihoods of millions of unvaccinated workers, teachers, health care providers, police, firemen, and military personnel by ordering them to get the experimental vaccine injections or lose their jobs. 

Part of Biden’s disastrous behavior has been his reliance on vaccine and gain-of-function cheerleader and paymaster, Dr. Anthony Fauci, pandemic know-it-all and National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director under the Obama, Trump, and now Biden administrations. 

Fauci has now been caught lying under oath to Congress, covering up the lab origins of COVID-19 and claiming that his NIH (National Institutes of Health), and its surrogate EcoHealth Alliance, led by Peter Daszak, never funded (despite massive evidence to the contrary) the disastrous gain-of-function experiments in Wuhan. At Wuhan bat coronaviruses were genetically engineered to become more transmissible and virulent, thereby violating U.S. and international laws on Potential Pandemic Pathogens (PPPs) and biological weapons, and setting off the pandemic.

COP26

Regeneration for Climate Resilience: Will the Global Climate Summit (COP 26) Rely on False Solutions?

A Live Webinar: Friday Oct. 28 at 7 a.m. Central, 8 a.m. Eastern

Register on Zoom

Or watch this discussion anytime, starting at Noon central on Oct. 29 and thereafter at this link.

Hosted by Navdanya International

Dr. Vandana Shiva – Founder of Navdanya Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology (India) and President of Navdanya International;

André Leu – International Director of Regeneration International, and former President of IFOAM – Organics International;

Tom Newmark – co-founder and chair of The Carbon Underground.

In advance of the upcoming COP26 in Glasgow, Scotland, this discussion will focus on how true biodiversity-based, ecological and cultural regeneration is needed to build climate resilience for the future.

We live in a time of unprecedented crisis generated by 200 years of planetary exploitation. This has led us down the path of possible, irreversible climate change, along with biodiversity erosion and extinction of species, all symptoms of ecological destruction caused by the industrial food system. In the name of solving the climate crisis, large corporations, industries, and lobby groups are now promoting a whole range of techno-fix solutions such as genetically modified crops and gene editing, lab-grown foods, geo-engineering, biofuels, carbon-capture, and carbon credits. These solutions completely disregard nature and its regenerative abilities by attempting to technologically replace the natural processes they have destroyed, while creating new opportunities for the fossil fuel industry to continue polluting.

FOOD SUMMIT

Winona LaDuke and Frank Bibeau Speak at RI’s Global Food Summit

Winona LaDuke is a long-time Ojibway Native American activist leading the fight against climate and environmentally destructive fossil fuel pipelines while promoting indigenous and regenerative agricultural practices on the White Earth Reservation in Northern Minnesota. 

Winona and Frank recently gave a talk during the Regeneration International/OCA Global Food Summit.

OCA’s national office and organic research farm is located in Finland, Minnesota at the edge of Lake Superior and the largest wilderness area in the lower 48 states, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA). We have long worked in solidarity with Indigenous activists and Water Protectors such as Winona LaDuke and Frank Bibeau. As Alexis points out, Native struggles to protect traditional foods like wild rice, to safeguard precious watersheds, and ongoing regenerative practices to nurture biodiversity are our common struggles. Stopping corporate plunder and destruction and regenerating the Earth and our communities are our sacred responsibilities and our most important gifts to the the future generations.

What to Do?

“I can certainly see that people in the environmental movement are being disheartened… [but] we’ve all got to do our little bit… Actually doing something invigorates you.” – Dr. David Suzuki, academic, science broadcaster and environmental activist. 

These have been difficult weeks, watching the death and destruction wrought by hurricanes in the U.S., and massive flooding in Mexico, Sierra Leone and Southeast Asia.

You want to help those in need. You worry where the next storm will hit. We all want to do something.

We can’t undo the wrath of storms past. But the good news is this: Every single one of us can do our part to help cool the planet. And scientists are clear: If we cool the planet, we won’t stop every hurricane, every flood—but we will reduce the amount of rain, flooding, damage and despair.

What can you do? Buy consciously. When it comes to food, that means supporting the farmers and brands that use regenerative farming and land-management practices—practices that restore the soil’s capacity to draw down and sequester carbon.

Next week, our Regeneration International project will bring together about 110 scientists, farmers, activists, educators, climate experts and environmentalists to collaborate on global strategies to scale up regenerative organic agriculture.

This meeting couldn’t be more timely. Or more urgent.

We know you’re being asked to donate to many worthwhile causes, including hurricane relief efforts. We are grateful for any support you can provide for our work around food and farming, and their relationship to climate, healthy economies and communities, and your own health. 

We’ve “all got to do our little bit.” As we can attest, it’s invigorating.
