“Some 40% to 70% of mothers who have children with autism believe that their child was injured by a vaccine.”

Within medical freedom circles, much of the commentary on the September 22 press conference has focused on Tylenol being presented as the prime suspect for the autism epidemic.

While President Trump’s medical advisors chose to focus exclusively on Tylenol—therefore revealing that they have, to some degree, been captured by the Vaccine Cartel—HHS Secretary Kennedy managed to make what I believe to be the most important statement of the press conference.

Finally, autism is a complex disorder with multifactorial etiology. We are continuing to investigate a multiplicity of potential causes where no areas of taboo. One area that we are closely examining, as the president mentioned, is vaccines. Some 40% to 70% of mothers who have children with autism believe that their child was injured by a vaccine. President Trump believes that we should be listening to these mothers instead of gaslighting and marginalizing them, like prior administrations.

As Andy Wakefield has been saying for almost thirty years, the key to determining the cause of autism lies in the witness testimony of mothers.

In the matter of autism, mothers are the best witnesses because they “keep their attention fixed upon what lies nearest”—namely, the behavior, moods, and health of their infants.

It is an astonishing fact that almost none of the literature on autism devotes serious attention to case studies like that of Hannah Poling, documented by J.S. Poling, A.W. Zimmerman et al. in their seminal paper Developmental regression and mitochondrial dysfunction in a child with autism.

For the record, in the case of Hannah Poling, the U.S. Court of Federal Claims acknowledged—albeit in a deal it tried to keep secret—that the girl’s regression into autism had been caused by a large number of vaccines administered all at once.

As we document in our new book, Vaccines: Mythology, Ideology, and Reality, Hannah’s parents are far from being alone. Thousands of parents have told similar stories. Hannah’s father, Dr. Jon Poling, had the advantage of being a neurologist at the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, so the U.S. government found his witness testimony impossible to dismiss.

Contrast the common practice of dismissing parents’ testimony in the matter of autism with our standard methods for investigating child abductions. When a child doesn’t come home from school, a detective doesn’t start by consulting the literature on criminology and criminal psychology. No, he interviews the child’s parents and teachers to establish a timeline and to learn about the child’s activities, social circles, habits, and interests.

At the McCullough Foundation, we are forging a new path, beyond the obscurantism of the high priesthood that has controlled the discourse about autism since it waged its calumnious campaign against Dr. Andrew Wakefield twenty years ago.

We are now getting organized to conduct a major case series study on children who had normal births, achieved all developmental milestones during their first twelve to nineteen months of life, but then regressed into autism. Though we will be very thorough and searching in our questions, our inquiry will be guided by the imperative to listen to the mothers.

23-year-old Iryna Zarutska—combined with a collage the offender’s fourteen mugshots from his previous arrests

By John Leake

Just before Christmas, 1959, the American novelist, Truman Capote, began researching the true story of the murder of the Clutter family in Holcomb, Kansas on the night of November 15 of that year. As Capote saw it, the murder seemed—in an extremely dramatic way—to express the state of American society at that time.

Capote’s research ultimately led to the publication of In Cold Blood, which many consider the founding book of the true crime genre.

I thought of In Cold Blood when I saw the following images. The first is a still from the surveillance video on a Charlotte, NC light rail train showing a man nonchalantly opening his folding knife to kill the young woman sitting in front of him.

The second image captures the man initiating the fatal attack in which he stabbed the girl three times, including a fatal wound to her neck.

The third image is of the victim—23-year-old Iryna Zarutska—combined with a collage the offender’s fourteen mugshots from his previous arrests.

Iryna, who sought refuge in the United States from the war in Ukraine, was riding the train home from her job as a clerk in a pizzeria.

A society that does such an appalling job of protecting young women cannot be considered civilized or to have retained anything resembling manly virtue. The incident strikes me as a logical outcome in a society in which Marine veteran Daniel Penny was prosecuted for negligent homicide. Penny took action to protect people on a New York City subway from a deranged homeless man who was shouting “I’m gonna kill you” and other threats. Penny put the man in a chokehold that resulted in the man’s death, which sparked a major protest. The protestors believed that death threats do not warrant the use of force—that administering a chokehold is only justified after a violent attack has been initiated.

So far, no protests of the coldblooded murder of the innocent and unsuspecting girl. Of all major newspapers, only the New York Post has reported the incident, which is such a shameful horror show as to be almost beyond belief.

It seems the other major newspapers don’t consider the slaughter of a young woman on a public train to be newsworthy.
