Vindication For The Unvaccinated?

Truth Is Not Readily Confessed

Author David Marks comes via Robert W. Malone MD, MS with a request to share his recent essay (found on his Substack here). As Tulsa continues to grow as a regional medical center this essay touches on deep truths concerning the lingering effects of the COVID crisis and associated propaganda, on relationships.

At a recent family gathering, I sat at the dinner table with a group of loved ones for the first time since the COVID-19 fiasco. Most of the cheerful discussion focused on the spectacular event of the week; my mother’s 100th birthday.

Although no one in my family was hospitalized or died during the so-called pandemic, they all had been vaccinated repeatedly.

Dear Legislators, Oppose SJR20

In a public release early this morning, more than 30 organizations and individuals, representing thousands of conservative Oklahomans, politely request legislators to oppose SJR20, the proposed joint resolution that seeks to disapprove the newly adopted science and social studies standards.

The letter notes that “three State Board members were replaced just days before the final vote, disrupting a nearly year-long process. Now, some individuals are using that disruption as cover to try to reverse the results, results that reflect the will of the people.
