10 Shocking Stories the Media Buried This Week

Measles, Fauci, Politics and Public Education. This is a fascinating read
#10 – ‘Measles Death’ of 6-Year-Old Girl Exposed as a Media HOAX
The media claimed a 6-year-old girl died of measles, but “she did not die of measles by any stretch of the imagination,” Dr. Pierre Kory says.
“In fact, she died of pneumonia. But it gets worse than that because she didn’t really die of pneumonia. She died of a MEDICAL ERROR.”
Let that sink in.
What happened was a complete breakdown in basic medical care. The hospital failed to give her the appropriate antibiotic regimen to treat her pneumonia. By the time they corrected their mistake, it was too late, and the girl died “catastrophically.”
“I mean, this is like medicine 101. You put them on two antibiotics to cover all the possibilities. It’s a grievous error, and it’s an error which led to her death,” Dr. Kory attested.
Not only did Covenant Children’s Hospital fail to provide the appropriate antibiotic, but when they noticed their error, they dragged their feet and took another 10 hours to administer it.
“By that time, she was already on a ventilator. And approximately 24 hours later—actually, less than 24 hours later—she died,” Dr. Kory explained.
And she did not pass away peacefully. According to Dr. Kory, “She died rather catastrophically.”
And while her family grieved, the media hijacked her death to stir fear and push the vaccine narrative. Just another “measles death” used as a political weapon.
This is a case Dr. Pierre Kory calls “absolutely enraging.”
And it is. Just another example of how the media will shamelessly twist the story of a grieving family’s loss to push Big Pharma’s agenda. That’s not just dishonest. That’s evil, plain and simple.

#9 – Bill Maher guest calls out Fauci’s ridiculous pardon, saying, “There’s a reason he was given a pardon back to 2014.”
“There is something very wrong going on here.”
“Everyone knew it [gain-of-function research] was dangerous a long time ago. You go back to 2015, you will find a big meeting in London where they say there’s one lab in the world most likely to have a problem with this—Wuhan. Do you know who was the biggest supporter of gain of function research for the last 30 years? Anthony Fauci.”
It turns out that in 2014, 300 scientists warned Anthony Fauci would start a global pandemic.
RFK Jr. previously explained that following the high-profile escape of three bugs from U.S. labs, these 300 scientists sent a letter to President Obama, urging him to shut down Anthony Fauci’s gain-of-function research.
Obama issued a moratorium and shut down 18 of the worst projects by Anthony Fauci. In the end, he really didn’t shut them down. Instead, Obama moved the research offshore to places like Ukraine, the former Soviet State of Georgia, and the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China.
Now, it is widely accepted that COVID-19 originated from that very lab in Wuhan, China. The 300 scientists were right when they said Anthony Fauci would start a global pandemic.
#8 – Kevin O’Leary delivers a harsh reality check to people burning Teslas: You’re going to “rot in hell in prison.”
“And frankly, as far as I’m concerned, that’s okay,” he said.
O’Leary left no room for debate, making it clear that there’s zero justification for the destruction:
“When you set a car on fire, you should go to jail. You’re a criminal. And I don’t think we have to talk about it in any other context.”
He also had a blunt message for those thinking they’ll get away with it:
“And all those cars have cameras in them, and those dealerships have cameras. You’re beyond being stupid when you do that… You’re going to spend five to 20 years in prison. If they get them on terrorism—which I think is a stretch—there will be no parole, no shortened sentence. They’ll rot in hell in prison for 20 years. And frankly, as far as I’m concerned, that’s okay.”
#7- Stephen A. Smith Rips his OWN STAFF while recording his show.
Smith grilled his staff’s loyalty to the Democratic Party after pitching this common-sense idea to Democrats: “Rather than telling us what we should vote against, maybe you should present us with options of what to vote for.”
“I mean, my God. Are you okay, Michael, with me suggesting that? Are you okay with me, Sherry, suggesting that?” Smith asked.
“Rashawn Galen and all of a bunch of leftists that’s under my umbrella trying to act like they’re independents when they’re full of it! I’m talking about my own damn staff,” he clarified.
“I’m a centrist. I think my man, Rashawn, is a centrist. The rest of these damn people working for me. I mean, what left-wing party are you associated with? I mean, you gotta believe this stuff.”
“Pay for performance. That’s what businesses do. There’s no reason we shouldn’t be running our public schools in the same way.”
Vivek announced that he plans for Ohio to become the first state in the nation to adopt merit-based pay for every teacher, principal, and administrator.
He says that performance reviews should go beyond standardized testing, incorporating peer reviews, parent feedback, and student outcomes—with a clear goal of rewarding the best educators.
“The best teachers in the country right now, sadly, are underpaid. We need to fix that—but fix it through meritocracy,” Vivek said. “Thanks to President Trump’s bold actions today, we can lead the way.”

#5 – Tim Walz absurdly claims that Trump’s plan to dismantle the Department of Education could take America back to an era of racial segregation.
“And then it’s about the Civil Rights Department at the Department of Education that makes sure that we don’t have a situation where a Ruby Bridges is escorted to school with police. And so we’re back in an area where we can segregate,” Walz said.
Somehow, giving control back to the states means we’re suddenly back in 1960. This is why no one takes Democrats seriously anymore. All they do is cry wolf.
#4 – Bill Maher believes JFK wasn’t killed by a lone gunman—says a lot of people wanted Kennedy dead.
QUESTION: “Is it time to move on from this conspiracy theory?”
MAHER: “Well, I mean, do you think it’s a conspiracy theory? Plainly, there was not a single gunman, right?… But the magic bullet. There could not have been a bullet that went through a guy, went around him, came back, went through the other guy, got lunch at the diner, came back, shot him in the back of the head. I mean, it’s just. Come on, everybody heard a shot from the grassy knoll.”
“The idea that the CIA is going to now suddenly go, ‘You’re right, we had something to do with it.’ I’m not saying they did, but a lot of people wanted him [JFK] dead.”
“So you may think that the government computers all talk to each other. They synchronize, they add up what funds are going somewhere, and it’s coherent that the numbers, for example, that you’re presented as a senator, are actually the real numbers. They’re not,” Musk explained.
“They’re not totally wrong,” he continued. “They’re probably off by 5% or 10% in some cases. So I call it Magic Money Computer. Any computer which can just make money out of thin air. That’s Magic Money.”
“So how does that work?” Ted Cruz asked.
“It just issues payments,” Musk answered. “I think we found now 14 magic money computers. They just send money out of nothing.”
This raises a critical question: If the government’s books are off by 5% to 10% in some cases, leaving up to hundreds of billions of dollars unaccounted for, where is all that money actually going?
#2 – The New York Times finally ADMITS the “conspiracy theorists” were right about COVID and that Fauci and the “experts” misled the public.
“Perhaps we were misled on purpose.”
I can’t believe they actually printed this. Here’s what they’re finally admitting:
• Tony Fauci, Francis Collins, and Jeremy Farrar coordinated a media strategy to discredit lab leak discussions. Emails show they worked behind the scenes to smear and silence anyone who questioned the official narrative.
• The Biden administration and intelligence agencies pressured social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook to censor lab leak discussions and label them as “misinformation.”
• Kristian Andersen, Robert Garry, and other scientists knew the truth but covered it up. Behind closed doors, they admitted a lab escape was likely. In public, they dismissed it as a “conspiracy theory.”
• WHO’s Jeremy Farrar got a burner phone to secretly coordinate meetings with Fauci, Collins, and top scientists, ensuring their discussions stayed off the record.
• Kristian Andersen, Robert Garry, and Eddie Holmes strategized how to mislead New York Times reporter Donald McNeil Jr., making sure he didn’t dig too deep into the lab leak theory.
• The infamous Proximal Origin paper, authored by Andersen, Garry, Holmes, Andrew Rambaut, and W. Ian Lipkin, was a coordinated effort to mislead the public. Private Slack messages revealed they believed a lab escape was not only possible but likely—yet they publicly denied it.
• Peter Daszak and EcoHealth Alliance helped cover for the Wuhan Institute of Virology, despite knowing their risky gain-of-function research could have caused the outbreak.
• The Wuhan lab, run by Shi Zhengli (“Bat Woman”), had horrifyingly lax safety protocols—yet they expected the public to believe a leak was impossible.
And now, after years of smearing and slandering the “conspiracy theorists,” The New York Times is quietly admitting the so-called “conspiracy theorists” were right all along.

New Study Obliterates the “Millions Saved” COVID Shot Myth

Peer-reviewed analysis exposes how the vaccine cartel propped up its fraudulent talking point — “millions of lives saved” — with computer models, false assumptions, and censorship.
Now that the majority of Americans believe COVID-19 “vaccines” caused mass deaths (Rasmussen survey), the vaccine cartel has pivoted.
No longer able to deny harms, they resort to a new defense: the fraudulent claim that COVID shots “saved millions of lives.” This talking point is designed to override evidence and silence accountability. But it collapses under scrutiny. A new peer-reviewed paper, A Step-by-Step Evaluation of the Claim that COVID-19 Vaccines Saved Millions of Lives, shows in detail why this claim is scientifically baseless and manufactured through deception:
Step 1 — The Modeling Scam
The heart of the “millions saved” claim lies in computer models, not observed evidence. The Senate hearing even cited a Commonwealth Fund blog post (Dec 2022) claiming 3.2 million U.S. deaths averted. But that wasn’t the only one.
The paper reviews several highly publicized studies:
- Watson et al. (2022, Lancet Infectious Diseases): projected 14–20 million lives saved worldwide in the first year — based on assumptions of high infection-blocking and mortality risk without vaccination.
- Meslé et al. (2021, Eurosurveillance): estimated 470,000 lives saved in Europe, ignoring both natural immunity and early treatment options.
- Commonwealth Fund (2022 blog & updates): claimed massive U.S. deaths averted, with little methodological transparency.
Across all of them, the problems were the same:
- Assumptions stacked on assumptions (fixed infection fatality rates, no waning, vaccines stop spread).
- Counterfactual fantasy: “what would have happened without vaccines” projected with inflated baselines.
- Harms excluded: no deaths or adverse events from vaccination were ever considered.
The authors conclude: these “millions saved” numbers are political constructs — simulations engineered to create the illusion of benefit.
Step 2 — The “Stop the Spread” Lie Was the Core Input
The models’ “lives saved” numbers depended on assuming vaccines stopped spread. The Commonwealth Fund, Watson, Meslé — all explicitly treated vaccination as preventing infection chains, meaning every jab supposedly broke links that would have led to hospitalizations and deaths.
But the reality is undeniable: COVID shots never prevented infection or transmission. Breakthrough cases appeared within weeks of rollout and by 2022 the most vaccinated and boosted populations were driving major waves.
That means the very foundation of the “millions saved” models — durable transmission blocking — was never real. The math was built on a lie.
Step 3 — Zero Proof They Prevented Deaths
Once it was undeniable that vaccines didn’t stop infection, the cartel shifted: “Okay, but they still prevented millions of deaths from severe illness.” This is where the paper drills down into the evidence:
- Randomized Trials: Pfizer and Moderna RCTs were not powered to show mortality benefit. Six-month Pfizer data showed more deaths in the vaccine arm (15 vs. 14). There was no proof of deaths prevented.
- Observational Studies: Israeli NEJM studies and similar reports were methodologically flawed. The paper’s conditional probability analysis showed that the apparent reduction in severe outcomes was just an artifact of short-lived infection prevention, not independent protection against death.
- Dashboards: National health dashboards were widely cited to “prove” fewer deaths among vaccinated. But they presented raw, unadjusted counts. When proper controls were applied, the supposed mortality benefit disappeared — sometimes even reversing.
The authors show clearly: there is no empirical evidence that vaccines prevented deaths.
Step 4 — How the “Millions Saved” Myth Was Manufactured
If the evidence for “millions saved” was this weak, how did it become the official story? The study shows it wasn’t an accident — it was manufactured and enforced by officials, institutions, and media:
- Methodological Tricks: Studies were designed to flatter vaccines — cutting off follow-up before waning appeared, misclassifying vaccine deaths as “unvaccinated,” and ignoring adverse events altogether.
- Misrepresentation: Temporary dips in infection were sold as permanent proof of death prevention.
- Misinterpretation: Crude dashboard counts were treated as scientific fact, even though they ignored age, comorbidities, and risk differences.
- Censorship: Scientists who raised alarms were silenced, de-platformed, or smeared as “misinformation.”
Through these tactics, a fragile, assumption-driven claim was weaponized into a fraudulent consensus — repeated in Senate hearings, government press releases, and media soundbites as though it were beyond question.
Conclusion
The “millions of lives saved” claim is the fraudulent fallback of the vaccine cartel. It collapses when you:
- See the models (Watson, Meslé, Commonwealth Fund) are speculative, assumption-laden, and one-sided.
- Recognize that the infection-blocking they relied on was not based upon reality.
- Note trials, studies, and dashboards show no independent mortality benefit.
- Understand the narrative was manufactured through bias, misrepresentation, and censorship.
It isn’t science. It’s propaganda. And Americans are no longer buying it.

Canadian gov’t to take control of vaccine injury program after reports of serious mismanagement

From LifeSiteNews
The Canadian federal gov’t will take over the Vaccine Injury Support Program from Oxaro by March 2026 following reports of misallocated funds, unresolved claims, and unprofessional conduct.
The federal government is taking over Canada’s vaccine injury program after reports have discovered mismanagement.
The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is expected to take control of the Vaccine Injury Support Program (VISP) beginning on March 31, 2026, after a Global News report exposed the program for misallocating taxpayer funds and disregarding many vaccine-injured Canadians.
“We will publicly share further details on how the program will be delivered under PHAC when they become available,” Guillaume Bertrand, director of communications for Health Minister Marjorie Michel, told Global News.
Bertrand revealed that the government contract with Oxaro, the company tasked with running the VISP, will end in March, after which the federal government will take control.
“This is also part of our commitment to significantly reducing reliance on external consultants, while improving the capacity of the public service to hire expertise in-house,” Bertrand said.
Canada’s VISP was launched in December 2020 after the Canadian government gave vaccine makers a shield from liability regarding COVID-19 jab-related injuries; however, mismanagement within the program has led to many injured Canadians still waiting to receive compensation, while government contractors grow richer.
In July, Conservatives penned a letter calling for an investigation into the failing program, saying, “Despite the $50 million contract, over 1,700 of the 3,100 claims remain unresolved. Families dealing with life-altering injuries have been left waiting years for answers and support they were promised.”
Furthermore, the claims do not represent the total number of Canadians injured by the allegedly “safe and effective” COVID shots, as inside memos have revealed that Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) officials neglected to report all adverse effects from COVID shots and even went as far as telling staff not to report all events.
The PHAC’s downplaying of vaccine injuries is of little surprise to Canadians, as a 2023 secret memo revealed that the federal government purposefully hid adverse event reports so as not to alarm Canadians.
Of the $50.6 million that Oxaro Inc., has received, $33.7 million has been spent on administrative costs, compared to only $16.9 million going to vaccine-injured Canadians.
The letter further documented former VISP employees’ concerns that the program lacked professionalism and outlining what Conservatives described as “a fraternity house rather than a professional organization responsible for administering health-related claims.”
“Reports of constant workplace drinking, ping pong, and Netflix are a slap in the face to taxpayers and the thousands of Canadians waiting for support for life altering injuries,” the letter continued.
The federal government has ordered an audit into VISP. In late July, PHAC revealed that it is expediting its audit in light of reports of mismanagement within Oxaro.
