Cornered

Steve Kirsch backed the Chair of ACIP into a corner. They folded.

Realignment

When Covid confusion was in full swing, people were dealing with continuous nonsensical mandates, we were all drawn to our computer screens around the clock, and teams started to form. Alliances that made sense to us our entire lives suddenly no longer did and emerged a group of people from all political, religious, and ethnic backgrounds who came to the conclusion that there was one value that mattered more to them than any other, and that was Freedom. The freedoms to choose where we go, who we associate with, how we make a living, IF we can make a living, how to enjoy entertainment, and above all - what we put into our bodies- were all snatched from us, seemingly overnight.

Leadership

Through the fog of war being waged on our minds and bodies, through the heavy hand of censorship, and through an authority-driven propaganda campaign the likes of which we’ve never seen before, rose up individuals who turned into leaders by merit of their actions. It’s been beyond inspirational to watch in real-time as these individuals demonstrate that as cliche as it sounds, each person can actually make a difference and move the needle. I’ve written about many of the heroes of our era in this Substack. Yesterday, Steve Kirsch pulled a move that has the potential to be highly effective, and he did so flawlessly.

Back in another lifetime, in early 2021, Mr. Steve Kirsch, a lifelong Democrat, saw his natural alliance fall apart in front of his eyes. As a tech executive and donor to many Democratic campaigns, his natural allies were left-leaning Democrats. By speaking out against the Covid vaccines once he realized the harm they were causing, Mr. Kirsch has lost much of the contact he’d had in those circles and has been fully embraced as a man of action and a leader in the Freedom movement.

Naive Optimism

When the Great Substack Migration of 2020/2021 began, a lot of us were naive. At least, I was. As it became more obvious to the Substack world that the vaccines were bad news, mandates were a serious overreach, and a critical mass of doctors had abandoned their ability to critically think, I was overly optimistic about our ability as a group to crack through the gates of the mainstream. I thought that the vaccine pushers would have to fold their hand after dose 3 due to the obvious failures, and growing harm. I thought the media and health authorities would try and memory hole that it ever happened, and while they might not ever admit or apologize for their failures I expected them to at least hold off on jumping on the vaccinate-forever bandwagon.

My optimism was misplaced. Any shred of faith that remained in the people who work in mainstream media and the people who work at the “public health” institutions has been destroyed forever. We’re in late 2022, and the evidence is popping up all over despite the attempt at whack-a-mole played by the authorities, and there is no longer anyone in the medical or journalistic fields who can claim ignorance. For both of those professions, it is their job to know. It’s their job to ask. It’s their job to connect the dots and use independent thought to problem solve on behalf of their patients. It’s NOT their job to blindly follow orders, no matter what many of them may try and claim in the near future.

The People

My optimism should have been placed where it now firmly lies - with the people. What the Underground Media has accomplished in the last two years is truly astonishing. One step at a time, people came out of the fog and focused. Individuals utilized the resources and personal skills that they possess to contribute to the most important battle of our lifetimes, and that’s ensuring a world where our kids will have the opportunities and choices that we did. Groups were formed, they linked up, and cooperated. Small and independent media channels share information and collaborate because that’s literally all they’re focused on. Dr. Naomi Wolf described the formation of the DailyClout/Warroom Pfizer doc volunteers as miraculous, and I completely agree. Part of that miracle is the Internet, and while authoritarianism isn’t new and will never die, authoritarians have never come up against the people who outnumber them and who have the ability to connect. The speed and skill with which organizations have formed, individuals have contributed, and lawsuits have been filed have resulted in major wins, as hundreds of small battles are being fought simultaneously.

Steve Kirsch vs. ACIP

Back to Steve Kirsch. Mr. Kirsch has been incredibly effective at building a network, a movement, and a platform, one step at a time. The dedication of his time and his resources to the efforts of sharing information has turned him into a natural leader, and his near million followers cross-platform is testimony to that. Yesterday, Mr. Kirsch’s relentless efforts at obtaining information and attempting to share it with the people who have the power to act on it resulted in something powerful. It’s well known that Mr. Kirsch spends his time gathering and sorting information about the Covid vaccine from many sources, and then directing that information toward the health authorities. Those efforts are starting to bear fruit.

Dr. Grace Lee is a Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford Medicine Children’s Health, with a specialty in infectious diseases. She also currently serves as the chair of the US Advisory Committee of Immunization Practices, otherwise known as ACIP. ACIP is the only outside organization that the CDC consults with when recommending a vaccine. As such, she’s the perfect person to bring vaccine-related information to. When Yaffa Shir-Raz broke the story that the Israeli Ministry of Health covered up the true rate of vaccine side effects, Mr. Kirsch thought it was critical that Dr. Lee be aware of the definitive data that came from that report. As it’s not information the CDC is acknowledging or publicizing, Mr. Kirsch assumed there’s a good chance that Dr. Lee had not yet come across that data. He proceeded to email her and call her at work to inform her of this critical information, yet all attempts at contact failed. He then attempted to deliver the news to her in person, as a process server would. On a visit to her door yesterday, Mr. Kirsch wrote a note asking Dr. Lee if she’d like to see the Israeli data, with a reminder that lives are at stake.

As he was leaving the note on the door handle, two police officers showed up and informed Mr. Kirsch that there was a call regarding his presence at that location. Mr. Kirsch proceeded to comply with the officers’ questions and requests and explained to them that he was there to offer Dr. Lee critical information that directly impacts the safety of United States citizens. The event ended smoothly, and now Mr. Kirsch is holding a valuable tool in his hand. Confirmation of receipt of his offer of information. The entire exchange was on video, the note was clear, and there is no place left for Dr. Lee to hide behind plausible deniability. Actively refusing to engage with Mr. Kirsch sends a clear signal that her interests do not lie with the people she’s meant to protect.

This incident is yet another stepping stone in the trail the true leaders of our time are blazing towards our freedom. There’s a lot to be anxious about, there’s a lot of pain and suffering around us, physically and emotionally, but there’s also a tremendous amount of connection, action, and leadership that’s laying a serious foundation for rebuilding and defending our health and our freedom.
