Ocasio-Cortez gets humiliated during townhall event: ‘Why can’t you be more like Tulsi Gabbard?’

(Natural News) Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went viral late last week after a video clip of her being brutally heckled was posted online.

man who did not identify himself accused the New York Democratic socialist of becoming just another tool of the political establishment over her support for using taxpayer funds to provide funds and weapons to Ukraine in its battle against invading Russian forces, contributing to the largest land conflict in Europe since World War II.

“None of this matters unless there’s a nuclear war, which you voted to send arms and weapons to Ukraine. You ran as an outsider, yet you’ve been voting to start this war in Ukraine,” one man said in the video.

“You’re voting to start a third nuclear war with Russia and China. Why are you playing with the lives of American citizens? Tulsi Gabbard has shown guts where you’ve shown cowardice!” he added. “I believed in you, and you became the very thing you sought to fight against. That’s what you’ve become. You are the establishment! And you are the reason why everybody will end up in a nuclear war…”

WATCH:

Investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald posted a Twitter thread to point out the differences in political positions between those held by Ocasio-Cortez when she first ran for Congress in 2018 and today.

“AOC, 12/2020, on Antifa activists menacing politicians in public: Activists *should* be impolite. ‘The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.’ AOC, last night, to protesters confronting her for funding Biden’s proxy war: I won’t answer you! ‘You’re being rude!’” he wrote.

“I’ve gone back and watched the interview I did of AOC during her 2018 primary run, when few had even heard of her.  @RyanGrim called me and said: ‘there’s this primary challenger in Queens I think you’d really like.’ He was right. See if you recognize her,” Greenwald added in another Twitter post featuring his interview with AOC.

For her part, Gabbard, a former Democratic lawmaker from Hawaii who left her party last week, also denounced Democrats for going along with funding the Ukraine-Russia war.

“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, demonize the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war,” she said in a Twitter post.

“I believe in a government that is of, by, and for the people. Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not. Instead, it stands for a government of, by, and for the powerful elite. I’m calling on my fellow common sense independent-minded Democrats to join me in leaving the Democratic Party. If you can no longer stomach the direction that so-called woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country, I invite you to join me,” the former lawmaker and current U.S. Army Reserve officer added.

She added in a subsequent interview with Fox News host Tucker Carlson: “Rather than taking a stand for peace, prosperity, security and the freedom of the American people, we have too many people in Washington who are warmongers, subservient to the military-industrial complex, and continuing to put their own selfish interests or the interests of their donors first, with no mind for the cost and consequence that their decisions have on the American people.”

The Fourth Turn, Turn, Turn — Desultory Heroics

New CDC study proves COVID shots cause HORRIFIC adverse effects – Pfizer, FDA knew it

by: Sara Middleton, staff writer | October 17, 2022

(NaturalHealth365)  A new study shared by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) somewhat grandiosely claims that mRNA shots protect children from a rare “hyperinflammatory illness” caused by COVID-19.

In this article, let’s take a closer look at this study and point out some inconsistencies that the CDC seems to ignore as they continue to push for more and more jabs for juveniles.

New CDC study tries to claim that COVID shots prevent Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome due to COVID-19 – instead, provides evidence of adverse effects of COVID jabs

The study in question, entitled “Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome after Breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 Infection in 2 Immunized Adolescents, United States,” was conducted by researchers affiliated with the University of Colorado Aurora.  The study cites two cases of children who experienced (and recovered from) a suspected “hyperinflammatory illness” called multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C).  According to the CDC, MIS-C occurs “after SARS-CoV-2 infection.”

Let’s look at some things that both of these children had in common:

  • Both kids (one boy and one girl) were otherwise healthy 14-year-olds
  • Both kids had completed their two-dose series of Pfizer COVID shots three months before they were brought to the hospital with concerning symptoms, including fever, fatigue, congestion, cough, myalgias, headache, nausea, vomiting, bloodshot eyes, abdominal pain, and rash (the boy also happened to have developed symptomatic COVID-19 infection just one month after getting vaxxed!)
  • Upon presenting to the hospital, both kids were diagnosed with a variety of health issues, including hyponatremia (low sodium in the blood), thrombocytopenia (low platelets in the blood), sepsis (severe widespread infection), and impaired cardiac and liver function

Let’s start with the obvious problem:

If COVID shots are supposed to protect against COVID-19 and protect against severe illness, then why on earth would the CDC brandish these two case reports as a sign of COVID shot success?  Remember, these are “fully vaxxed” previously healthy children who already had a significantly low risk of severe complications associated with natural SARS-CoV-2 infection because of their young age … yet these children become sick enough following a “breakthrough” infection that they required hospitalization.  Trying to claim that their vax status somehow prevented their illnesses from getting worse seems like nothing more than grasping for straws from the CDC.

Next, let’s consider an alternative explanation that the CDC seems to willfully ignore: that their vax status was the explicit reason they experienced severe complications as a result of SARS-CoV-2 infection, a painful medical irony caused by a phenomenon known as Vaccine-Associated Enhanced Disease (VAED).

Pfizer, FDA has identified vax-associated enhanced disease as “Important Potential Risk” of COVID shots, acknowledges lack of data to understand true risk

VAED has been defined as “a rarely-observed phenomenon whereby vaccination promotes immune responses that exacerbate the disease caused by subsequent infection with the associated pathogen” (see an April 2022 review article from Frontiers in Immunology).  In other words, getting vaxxed against a virus drives harmful immune system changes that make a person even sicker once exposed to the virus (instead of more protected).  In these hopefully rare cases, the vax would do the exact OPPOSITE of what it is “supposed” to do.

VAED could absolutely explain why these children suffered from MIS-C after getting a “breakthrough” COVID-19 illness.  And it’s not as if VAED isn’t on Pfizer’s radar.

In Table 5, page 11 of a confidential report from Pfizer called “5.3.6 CUMULATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-AUTHORIZATION ADVERSE EVENT REPORTS OF PF-07302048 (BNT162B2) RECEIVED THROUGH 28-FEB-2021,” Pfizer refers to VAED as an “Important Potential Risk,” but goes on claim that current data shows the phenomenon is only “theoretical” and not yet observed clinically.

Pfizer cites the following data: “VAED may present as severe or unusual clinical manifestations of COVID-19.  Overall, there were 37 subjects with suspected COVID-19 and 101 subjects with confirmed COVID-19 following one or both doses of the vaccine; 75 of the 101 cases were severe, resulting in hospitalisation, disability, life-threatening consequences, or death.  None of the 75 cases could be definitively considered as [VAED].  In this review of subjects with COVID-19 following vaccination, based on the current evidence, [VAED] remains a theoretical risk for the vaccine.  Surveillance will continue.”

We are not claiming that the cases of these two unfortunate 14-year-old kids prove VAED.  However, we are concerned that the CDC and other researchers seem so willing to ignore VAED as a possible explanation.  Just how many people are harmed by these shots and put at even MORE risk when exposed to circulating coronavirus variants?  Is adequate surveillance honestly being conducted, as Pfizer claims?
