Kazuhiro Haraguchi, Japan’s former minister for Internal Affairs and Communications, apologized to the public for injuries and deaths resulting from the nation’s COVID shot rollout as well as the suppression of the antiviral drug ivermectin.

On May 31, thousands gathered in Tokyo, Japan, to participate in what organizers have touted as the “world’s biggest protest against the World Health Organization (WHO)”. (For video clips of the protest, refer to the link HERE.)

Notably, Kazuhiro Haraguchi, a former Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications in Japan and a present member of the House of Representatives, gave a rousing speech that was well-received by his audience, apologizing for the Japanese government’s handling of the COVID-19 “vaccine” rollout and expressing his grief for those who succumbed to “vaccine”-linked deaths.

“I apologize to all of you. So many have died, and they shouldn’t have,” he stated.

Adding, Haraguchi said:

When I travel around to different areas, I see those who can’t stand, can’t walk, can’t go to school, can’t go to work. We could have prevented these injuries from happening, but we did not

Going even further, Haraguchi boldly urged his audience to “overthrow the current government,” an exhortation that was greeted with resounding applause.

“Let’s defeat those demonic forces,” Haraguchi urged, calling for government and institutional accountability.

Haraguchi disclosed personal details about his own struggles after “vaccination.” For one, he stated that he had contracted a rapidly progressing form of cancer.

“This time last year, I had neither eyebrows nor hair. Two out of the three supposed vaccines I received were lethal batches,” he divulged.

Notably, Haraguchi decried Japan’s prohibition of ivermectin, a domestically produced drug developed by Japanese doctor Satoshi Omura, which Haraguchi contended could have played a decisive role in tackling COVID-19. Rather, the Japanese government banned the drug, in a move which Haraguchi suggested was due to economic interests.

“Why? Because they (ivermectin drugs) are cheap. They don’t want it because it will interfere with the sales of the vaccines,” he posited, again drawing loud applause from his listeners.

Likewise, in nearby Philippines, an intense discussion took place in the Philippines’ House of Representatives regarding the alarming rise of more than 290,000 excess deaths due to COVID-19 “vaccines.”

Attorney Tanya Lat condemned the government’s lack of accountability:

There are Filipino people who are sick and tired of how the DOH [Department of Health] has let us down, has refused to admit that people are dying, turning a blind eye to the people who are getting sick, turbo cancers, myocarditis, children who are suddenly sick as if they are 60-, 70-year-old people. We look into their eyes, there does not seem to be any sympathy for the people who have died, for the people who are now physically disabled because of these vaccines.

Strikingly, Congressman Zia Alonto Adiong remarked about the legal safeguards surrounding pharmaceutical firms pushing COVID-19 “vaccines”:

There’s really an agreement that indicates that they cannot be sued. So I mean, that’s something that we should worry about. Why would a pharmaceutical company insist on not being sued if there will be injuries or fatalities that may come after as a result of that?

Furthermore, analyst Sally Clark disclosed disturbing figures regarding the correlation between falling birth rates and “vaccine” rollouts “since the pandemic.”

Elaborating, Sally stated:

The very big spike is the deaths in 2021, which started in March of 2021, immediately consecutive with the start of the vaccine rollout. In 2021, when vaccination rolled out, the deaths went up in all age groups that were vaccinated.

Eventually, the hearing ended by urging lawmakers to further delve into the correlation between the experimental COVID-19 “vaccines” and excess deaths.

Likewise, at the AEFI (Adverse Event Following Immunization) gathering, called  “A Prayer to Reject the IHR Amendment and Solidarity with Vaccine Affected Victims” and held by Malaysia’s Muslim Consumer’s Association (PPIM), “vaccine” victims and their families expressed their calls for justice to be done.

One doctor at the event, sorrowfully acknowledged: “As a medical doctor, we are so ashamed of the mistake that we have made!”

Across the Pacific, former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who supported COVID-19 “vaccines” previously, recently reinforced Haraguchi’s admission regarding the potential efficacy of Ivermectin.

“I’ll tell you something else that’s gonna get you a lot of hits,” Cuomo said. “I am taking… a regular dose of ivermectin. Ivermectin was a boogeyman during COVID. That was wrong. We were given bad information about ivermectin. The real question is, why?” Cuomo ruminated. Before the former CNN anchor admitted that he was injured by the COVID-19 shots, he had hitherto denounced ivermectin as a “horse dewormer.”

“What matters is, the entire medical community knew that ivermectin couldn’t hurt you. They knew it… I know they knew it. How do I know? Because now I’m doing nothing but talking to these clinicians, who at the time were overwhelmed by COVID, and they weren’t saying anything,” Cuomo lamented.

Unfortunately, it looks like more and more so-called “COVID-19 vaccine conspiracy theories,” such as the aforementioned correlation between “vaccination” and “excess deaths,” are coming true.

However, despite mounting evidence of COVID-19 “vaccine”-linked deaths and injuries, disgraced World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus remained intransigent in his commitment to push for the highly controversial “Pandemic Treaty” that would undermine individual states’ sovereignty when dealing with future “pandemics.” Tedros’ remarks came after the 194 WHO member states could not attain unanimous agreement on a draft of the “Pandemic Treaty.”

“This is not a failure. We will try everything – believing that anything is possible – and make this happen because the world still needs a pandemic treaty,” Tedros said.

Biden admin knew COVID shot risks in early 2021 but kept silent for months: Senate report

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Calvin Freiburger

The Biden administration was warned of cardiovascular dangers associated with the COVID vaccines in February 2021 yet kept in quiet until June, according to a Senate report.

The Biden administration was aware of cardiovascular dangers associated with the COVID-19 vaccines as early as its second month in office yet delayed disclosing them for months, according to a report by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations.

The Daily Wire obtained a copy of the report, which uncovered a February 2021 email from Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) Vaccine Safety Technical Work Group (VaST) co-lead Lauri Markowitz, which reported that of the almost 1,000 post-vaccination deaths reported at the time, those with “known” causes were “often cardiovascular.”

The report further notes that Israel, which began vaccinating earlier than the United States, notified CDC officials that it found “large reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people, following the administration of the Pfizer vaccine.”

However, “[r]ather than provide the public and health care providers with immediate and transparent information regarding the risk of myocarditis following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination, the Biden administration waited until late June 2021 to announce changes to the labels for the Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines based on the ‘suggested increased risks’ of myocarditis and pericarditis,” the report finds. “Even though CDC and FDA officials were well aware of the risk of myocarditis following COVID-19 vaccination, the Biden administration opted to withhold issuing a formal warning to the public for months about the safety concerns, jeopardizing the health of young Americans.”

“For a number of months, they were talking about these things. At some point in time, they actually internally said, ‘Is there a signal of myocarditis, a safety signal?’ And the answer was ‘Yes,’” said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), chair of the committee. “And yet, a couple of days later, they decided not to issue a warning on the Health Alert Network (HAN). Rather than provide informed consent, the federal health agencies, the Biden administration, covered it up. They downplayed the signals.”

Johnson added that the Biden administration stonewalled his committee, but the Trump administration is “beginning to produce records, pursuant to the chairman’s subpoena, that should have been provided years ago, without redactions, to Congress and the public.”

The federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports 38,615 deaths, 220,701 hospitalizations, 22,531 heart attacks, and 29,150 myocarditis and pericarditis cases as of April 25, among other ailments. CDC researchers have recognized a “high verification rate of reports of myocarditis to VAERS after mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination,” leading to the conclusion that “under-reporting is more likely” than over-reporting.

An analysis of 99 million people across eight countries published in the journal Vaccine “observed significantly higher risks of myocarditis following the first, second and third doses” of mRNA-based COVID vaccines, as well as signs of increased risk of “pericarditis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis,” and other “potential safety signals that require further investigation.” In April 2024, the CDC was forced to release by court order 780,000 previously undisclosed reports of serious adverse reactions, and a study out of Japan found “statistically significant increases” in cancer deaths after third doses of mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines, and offered several theories for a causal link.

Last week, U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary and vaccine chief Dr. Vinay Prasad co-authored a paper announcing new safety trials before future COVID-19 shot recommendations, but also that they anticipated continuing to recommend the shots for everyone older than 65 and for most children and adults with a wide range of “risk factors.”

This week, however, Health & Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced that they were withdrawing recommendations for healthy children or healthy pregnant women to receive the shot.

Dr. Malone: Trump admin takes step in right direction with new COVID shot guidance

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Robert Malone M.D.

I think I am developing a bad case of “Warp Speed” whiplash.

On May 20, 2025, the New England Journal of Medicine published an article authored by Vinay Prasad, M.D., M.P.H. (FDA/CBER Director), and Martin A. Makary, M.D., M.P.H. (FDA Commissioner) titled “An Evidence-Based Approach to Covid-19 Vaccination.” The “new” FDA position was that pregnancy and recent pregnancy, as well as many other pre-existing conditions, are associated with a greater risk of severe COVID outcomes. The agency said it would approve new versions of the vaccine (based on antibody production only) for adults 65 years of age and older as well as for people with one or more risk factors for severe COVID-19 outcomes.

These risk factors include medical conditions such as asthma, cancer, chronic kidney disease, heart disease, diabetes, and pregnancy. At that time, the agency indicated that healthy younger adults and children who fall outside of these groups may not be eligible to receive the COVID-19 shot this fall. Vaccine manufacturers will have to conduct clinical trials to demonstrate that the vaccine benefits low-risk groups.

On May 22, 2025, the groundbreaking MAHA Commission Report was announced and published. Never before has such a wide-ranging, comprehensive, and fearless report on the state of children’s health in the United States been published by the U.S. government. Titled “Making Our Children Healthy Again,” the report addresses concerns about the U.S. childhood vaccine schedule as part of its broader focus on chronic disease in children. Key statements about vaccines include:

  • Increased Scrutiny Needed: The report calls for a reassessment of the childhood vaccine schedule, highlighting that the number of recommended vaccines has risen from 7 injections in 1986 to 29 by age one. It notes that many vaccines were tested in small participant groups, lacked inert placebo-controlled trials, and had limited safety monitoring (some lasting six months or less), raising concerns about detecting rare or long-term adverse effects.
  • Comparative Analysis: It points out that Denmark’s vaccine schedule includes nearly half as many vaccines as the U.S., yet no trials have compared the safety or advisability of the U.S. schedule against other nations’.
  • Vaccine Safety and Corporate Influence: The report questions the safety of the current schedule, suggesting that the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 shields manufacturers from liability, creating a unique regulatory framework that may limit open dialogue and safety reporting. It advocates for “true” placebo studies and more research into potential adverse effects.
  • No Causal Claims: The report does not explicitly link vaccines to chronic diseases like autism, obesity, or diabetes, but it raises concerns about insufficient investigation into potential associations.
  • Acknowledgment of Benefits: It acknowledges that vaccines protect children from infectious diseases but emphasizes balancing benefits with potential risks, and calls for more rigorous clinical trial designs.
  • Ongoing Research: Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated that research into vaccine safety, including the autism crisis, is already underway, with policy recommendations to follow within 100 days.
  • What the report did not do was to address specific concerns regarding the adverse events associated with the COVID-19 mRNA products in children, pregnant women, pre-born or post-natal babies.

Following these key back-to-back announcements, vocal critics within the MAHA movement immediately launched a campaign attacking Secretary Kennedy and FDA Commissioner Makary for failing to ban all mRNA-based COVID products. Some with longstanding ties to the feminist movement went so far as to assert (on Substack and podcasts) that there was a coordinated effort by the “patriarchy” to shut down female social media influencers who were attacking Kennedy and Makary for failing to act swiftly and comprehensively to withdraw all FDA marketing authorization for these COVID-19 mRNA-based products.

What these attacks failed to do was gather information concerning the political decision-making process within the administration of President Trump that led to these policy decisions. According to sources in close contact with the administration, I have been informed that President Trump and his chief of staff made the decision to leave the COVID mRNA-based products on the recommended CDC vaccine schedule and related guidance. Not Kennedy or Makary.

One version of this narrative emphasizes the president’s political calculus, particularly concerns about alienating the pharmaceutical industry (and its potential donations to senators) as the midterm elections approach. So once again, the nattering nabob “influencer” caste directed their hate and ire at the wrong target. Curiously, many of these “influencers” are directly sponsored by a company seeking to associate itself with “medical freedom,” and not so curiously, some have a long history of Trump Derangement Syndrome symptoms. At least one of these sponsored “influencers” actively seeks to damage both the president and the entire MAHA movement politically.

What none of these appear to recognize is that, because of “small rooming” and the emerging dynamics of the splinternet, they were primarily communicating with the MAHA base, actively promoting anger by the base against Secretary Kennedy, and perhaps most importantly demoralizing both the overall MAHA base including the “MAHA Moms” that became disenchanted with the Democrat Party and played such a role in tipping the 2014 election in favor of President Trump and the Republican Party. The damage was becoming significant. Over the last few days, I have had long conversations with leaders and donors backing key MAHA-aligned online publications and non-profit advocacy organizations who were deeply troubled about the anger and divisiveness that was consuming their groups over this issue of CDC pediatric and pregnancy guidance concerning the COVID-19 mRNA products.

First we had the Secretary of Defense boldly stating that the products mandated and deployed to warfighters and other members of the Armed Services on pain of dishonorable discharge were not FDA licensed (as federal law requires) and that those orders were illegal. Then the FDA Commissioner and his chief deputy, responsible for Vaccine regulatory policy, announced “new rules” for COVID booster authorization. Then, the groundbreaking MAHA commission report. And now this.

Like many, I would prefer that these COVID gene therapy-based technology products that cause your entire body to manufacture the genetically modified, highly toxic SARS-CoV-2 spike protein for extended periods be withdrawn from the US market. On the basis of data from all over the world, approximately three years ago it was my impression that the risk/benefit ratio of these products did not merit continued use in any cohort, as the same cohorts at elevated risk for significant COVID disease or death were also at elevated risk of disease or death attributable to these genetic vaccines. But to date, that has remained a minority opinion.

Frankly, given the current political landscape and President Trump’s belief that both Operation Warp Speed and these products were one of the great successes of his first administration, I am amazed that policy changes regarding these products have advanced so quickly under Secretary Kennedy and President Trump.

But I am also under no illusion that those “influencers” promoting the attacks, targeted splintering and demoralization, and intentional damage to the MAHA movement and its momentum will tone down their breathless, angry rhetoric. After all, anger sells. It generates clicks, likes, engagement, follows, influence and revenue. And is actively exploited and driven by bot farms.

But for one brief moment, let’s celebrate the win. This is progress. This is the consequence of new leadership at HHS doing what it can to Make America (and its children) Healthy Again.

Never forget, in politics and all other things, perfect is the enemy of the good. And patience is a virtue.
