President-elect Donald Trump believes vaccines are responsible for the autism epidemic and he has promised to find out the truth and “save our children and their future” when he takes office in January.
Trump dismissed the official claim that there is no link between vaccines and autism, claiming there has been a cover up to suppress the truth and that “nay-sayers will understand soon.”
“[W]e’ve had so many instances, people that work for me. Just the other day, two years old, two and a half years old, a child, a beautiful child went to have the vaccine, and came back, and a week later got a tremendous fever, got very, very sick, now is autistic.”
During a GOP a primary debate with Trump, Dr. Ben Carson claimed there is no “documented proof” that vaccines are responsible for autism, however Dr. Carson, a neuroscientist, conceded that “it is true that we are probably giving way too many in too short a period of time.”
Trump’s response echoes one he gave on Fox News in April 2012, in which he also related the story of a child of one of his employees who was damaged after receiving vaccines.
“I’ve gotten to be pretty familiar with the subject,” Trump told Fox News’ Fox & Friends. “You know, I have a theory — and it’s a theory that some people believe in — and that’s the vaccinations. We never had anything like this.
“This is now an epidemic. It’s way, way up over the past 10 years. It’s way up over the past two years. And, you know, when you take a little baby that weighs like 12 pounds into a doctor’s office and they pump them with many, many simultaneous vaccinations — I’m all for vaccinations, but I think when you add all of these vaccinations together and then two months later the baby is so different then lots of different things have happened. I really — I’ve known cases.”
The vaccine autism link recently came under federal scrutiny when Florida US Congressman Bill Posey noted before a House committee the testimony of Center for Disease Control whistleblower Bill Thompson, who claimed the agency colluded with researchers to destroy documents linking the injection to thousands of autism cases.
On July 29, US Congressman Bill Posey made his last stand on the floor of the House. Granted five minutes to speak, he exposed lies by the CDC in the infamous 2004 study that exonerated the MMR vaccine and claimed it had no connection to autism.
“No connection to autism” was the lie. Congressman Posey read a statement by long-term CDC researcher William Thompson, one of the authors of the 2004 Pediatrics study designed to determine once and for all if the MMR vaccine has contributed to the autism epidemic.
“…the [CDC] co-authors scheduled a meeting to destroy documents related to the [MMR vaccine] study. The remaining four co-authors all met and brought a big garbage can into the meeting room and reviewed and went through all the hard copy documents that we had thought we should discard and put them in a huge garbage can.”
With Trump in the White House with full executive powers the vaccine autism link is about to come under it’s most severe scrutiny yet.
If I told you that Democratic Party lobbyist Tony Podesta, whose brother John Podesta chairs Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, is a registered foreign agent on the Saudi government’s payroll, you’d probably think I was a Trump-thumping, conspiratorial nutcase. But it’s true.
The lobby firm created by both Tony and John Podesta in 1988 receives $140,000 a month from the Saudi government, a government that beheads nonviolent dissidents, uses torture to extract forced confessions, doesn’t allow women to drive, and bombs schools, hospitals and residential neighborhoods in neighboring Yemen.
The Podesta Group’s March 2016 filing, required under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938, shows that Tony Podesta himself oversees the Saudi account. At the same time, Tony Podesta is also a top campaign contributor and bundler for Hillary Clinton. So while one brother runs the campaign, the other brother funds it with earnings that come, in part, from the Saudis.
John and Tony Podesta have been heavyweights in DC insider politics for decades. John Podesta served as President Bill Clinton’s chief of staff, founded the influential DC think tank Center for American Progress (which regularly touts Saudi “reforms”), and was counselor to President Obama. Tony Podesta was dubbed by the New York Times as “one of Washington’s biggest players“ whose clients “are going to get a blueprint for how to succeed in official Washington.”
The brothers seem to have no problem mixing their roles into the same pot. Tony Podesta held a Clinton campaign fundraiser at his home featuring gourmet Italian food cooked by himself and his brother, the campaign chairman. The fundraiser, by the way, came just days after Tony Podesta filed his Saudi contract with the Justice Department, a contract that included an initial “project fee” payment of $200,000.
The Saudis hired the Podesta Group in 2015 because it was getting hammered in the press over civilian casualties from its airstrikes in Yemen and its crackdown on political dissidents at home, including sentencing blogger Raif Badawi to ten years in prison and 1,000 lashes for “insulting Islam.” Since then, Tony Podesta’s fingerprints have been all over Saudi Arabia’s advocacy efforts in Washington DC. When Saudi Arabia executed the prominent nonviolent Shia dissident Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, causing protests throughout the Shia world and inflaming sectarian divisions, The New York Times noted that the Podesta Group provided the newspaper with a Saudi commentator who defended the execution.
The Podesta-Clinton-Saudi connection should be seen in light of the recent media exposes revealing the taudry pay-to-play nature of the Clinton Foundation. Top on the list of foreign donors to the foundation is Saudi Arabia, which contributed between $10 million and $25 million.
What did the Saudis get for their largesse and access? Wikileaks revealed a 2009 cable by then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton saying: “More needs to be done since Saudi Arabia remains a critical financial support base for Al Qaeda, the Taliban, Lashkar e-Tayyiba and other terrorist groups.” Instead of sanctioning the Saudis, Clinton did the opposite: She authorized enormous quantities of weapons to be sold to them. On Christmas Eve in 2011, Hillary Clinton and her closest aides celebrated a massive $29.4 billion sale to the Saudis of over 80 F-15 fighter jets, manufactured by Boeing, a company which coincidentally contributed $900,000 to the Clinton Foundation. In a chain of enthusiastic emails, an aide exclaimed that it was “not a bad Christmas present.” I’m sure the Yemenis at the receiving end of the Saudi bombings would not be so enthusiastic.
The Clintons have said that if Hillary Clinton gets elected, the foundation will stop taking foreign donations. But what about no longer taking campaign contributions from people who are paid by the Saudi government to whitewash its image? The Podesta Group should be blacklisted from contributing to Clinton’s campaign until they drop the monarchy as a client and return their ill-gotten gains. If Hillary Clinton wants to be a meaningful symbol for human rights and women’s empowerment, her campaign must live up to the values she claims to represent, and this would be one step in the right direction.
Flat-Earthers. Young Earth creationists. Holocaust deniers. And now, WikiLeaks deniers.
Remember when kooky conspiracy theories used to be under the sole jurisdiction of poorly-designed websites with bloodstained Illuminati symbols in the background? Now you see them being peddled on mainstream news stations, spouting convoluted, contradictory messages that go all over the map, from this delusional lunatic babbling on CNN about how reading WikiLeaks is illegal, to this pants-on-head psychotic madman from MSNBC going on a manic 37-post Twitter rant about how Trump is collaborating with the Russians to deliver doctored leaks, basing his fantastical claims on nothing but his own wild imagination. “It’s the Russians! It’s the Russians!”
Somehow in the fevered hallucinations of these yammering bedlamites, it’s possible for the leaked documents to be (A) illegal to read, (B) completely fake, and (C) stolen by Russian hackers, all at the same time.
It’s hard to blame them for losing the plot at this point, though. I mean, the defenders of the establishment are really backed into a corner these days. Nobody’s buying their old “but Trump!” schtick anymore, it’s common knowledge that the corporate media is at the whim of the ruling elites, it’s undeniable that DNC violated their own Charter by colluding against Sanders, and the Pied Piper email confirmed that they rigged the Republican primaries as well. This has left them with no recourse but to either put on their tinfoil hats and blame the whole thing on an elaborate conspiracy by the Kremlin or to espouse the even nuttier position of attempting to cast doubt upon the unassailable integrity of Julian Assange and WikiLeaks. Or admit they were wrong, but how often does that happen?
WikiLeaks has an untarnished, decade-long record of 100 percent perfect vetting of their sources, and everyone knows it. That’s why after the DNC leaks dropped, nobody bothered trying to deny anything; the DNC issued Bernie Sanders an apology, the officials involved tendered their letters of resignation, and the Democrats immediately began raving about Russian hackers to try and make everyone forget the whole thing. Assange toldMother Jones in 2010 that a full interdisciplinary panel of experts is set to the task of vetting each leak and investigating each source, and if there’s doubt, it’s thrown out. Assange has poured far too much effort, wisdom, and expertise into maintaining the integrity of his establishment for anyone to legitimately cast doubt upon it. They can try, but they’ll just sound demented.
It’s been funny watching the talking heads on the news sweat and stammer as they realize their complicity in a coordinated assault on American democracy is gradually being exposed. Watch this unfortunate dingbat squirm as Glenn Greenwald brings up the revelation that CNN helped prep Hillary Clinton for a question on one of their debates. Guess what channel he works for?
Speaking of Greenwald, he’s written an article worth reading about another one of the screwball tactics these WikiLeaks deniers have been employing: pretending that the leaks are just normal political stuff and not newsworthy or interesting. Greenwald explains that whether or not a leak is “shocking” or “Earth-shattering” is irrelevant to its significance and importance; what matters is how it contributes to the goal of painting a picture for the public of what’s really going on in their world. I agree that this is a valid point, but I hasten to add that these revelations which WikiLeaks has been bringing to light are indeed shocking; no amount of establishment gaslighting is going to make me believe that a presidential candidate having the ability to control the media coverage of the election and manipulate both the Republican and Democratic primaries is something normal and uninteresting.
“The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” That’s a quote from some boring Shakespeare play, but it’s also something people say when someone’s resisting something with a frantic intensity that reveals their true intentions. When you hear all the talking heads and Correct-the-Record shills loudly trying to get you to look anywhere else but where you’re looking, the lady doth protest too much. Look there, because you may be sure it’s where the truth is.
Trust yourself, dear reader. Don’t doubt yourself just because confident-sounding people tell you to believe them in an authoritative tone. Be true to what you know is true, and never, never let them trick you into thinking you’re the crazy one when you’ve got all the facts on your side. Remember:

Dirty Tricks Operative Unwittingly Provides Dark Money Trail to the DNC and Clinton Campaign
Violence at Trump Rallies Traced to Clinton Campaign and the DNC Through Process Called Birddogging
Shady Coordinated Communications Chain Between DNC, Clinton Campaign, Hillary Clinton’s Super PAC and Other Organizations Revealed
Key Clinton Operative: “It doesn’t matter what the friggin’ legal and ethics people say, we need to win this motherfucker”
Project Veritas Action has just released the first video in a multi-part series which exposes the dark secrets at the highest levels of the DNC and Clinton presidential campaign. Using hidden cameras, undercover journalists reveal key players coordinating clandestine operations in support of Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The video, supported by emails recently released by WikiLeaks, shows that the dirty tricks, lines of communications and the money trail lead all the way to the top.
The video discloses numerous examples of behind-the-scenes shady practices with consequences most Americans have seen on national television at Donald Trump campaign rallies across the country. What the media hasn’t reported is that the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee has been directing these activities with, at very best, a very thin veil of plausible deniability. This series of videos is the culmination of a year-long investigation by the undercover journalists at Project Veritas Action.
Scott Foval is the National Field Director for a non-profit organization named Americans United for Change. In the video, he told an undercover investigator that they contract “directly with the DNC and the [Clinton] campaign both.”
“I am contracted to him [Bob Creamer],” says Foval to an undercover reporter. “But I answer to the head of Special Events for the DNC and the head of special events and political for the campaign.”
“The [Clinton] campaign pays DNC, DNC pays Democracy Partners, Democracy Partners pays the Foval Group, The Foval Group goes and executes the shit…” continued Foval. “Democracy Partners is the tip of the spear on that stuff.”
Bob Creamer founded and is listed as a partner on the website of the Democratic consulting firm Democracy Partners. He is the husband of Jan Shakowsky, a congresswoman from Chicago. In 2005, he plead guilty to tax violations and bank fraud.
“Wherever Trump and Pence are going to be, we have events and we have a whole team across the country that does that both consultants and people from the Democratic Party,” Creamer told an investigator. “And the Democratic Party apparatus and the people from the campaign, the Clinton campaign and my role with the campaign, is to manage all that.”
The undercover investigation reveals compelling evidence of a dark money conspiracy and likely violations of federal campaign coordination laws by the Hillary Clinton campaign, Clinton’s Super PAC Priorities USA and the Democratic National Committee.
“The thing that we have to watch, is making sure there is a double blind between the actual campaign and the actual DNC and what we’re doing,” states Foval whiledescribing the conduit of information between the DNC, Clinton campaign, Political Action Committees, the AFL-CIO and other organizations. “There’s a double blind there. So they can plausibly deny that they knew anything about it.”
Foval explains, “The campaigns and DNC cannot go near Priorities, but I guaran-damn-tee you that the people who run the Super PACs all talk to each other and we and a few other people are the hubs of that communication.”
“I just had a call with the campaign and the DNC, every day at one o’clock,” says Creamer subordinate Zulema Rodriguez.
When discussing what sorts of dirty tricks Foval, Creamer and others manage at the bequest of the DNC and Clinton campaign, a Project Veritas Action investigator asks Foval if he would recognize Foval’s work.
“Oh, I know you do,” responds Foval. “Everybody does.”
“You remember the Iowa state fair thing where Scott Walker grabbed the sign out of the dude’s hand and then the dude kind of gets roughed up right in front of the stage right there on camera?” Foval asks. “That was all us. The guy that got roughed up is my counterpart who works for Bob.”
Foval adds that they “planted multiple people in that front area around him and in the back to make sure there wasn’t just an accident happen up front, there was also a reaction that happened out back.”
Foval also references Shirley Teeter, a sixty-nine-year-old lady who claims that she was assaulted at a Trump rally in North Carolina.
“She was one of our activists,” he says while introducing the termbird dogging to the political lexicon.
The phrase bird dogging also appears in an email released by WikiLeaks where Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook suggests it might be a tactic to employ to shore up support with Hispanic voters.
“So the term bird dogging, you put people in the line, at the front which means that they have to get there at six in the morning because they have to get in front at the rally, so that when Trump comes down the rope line, they’re the ones asking him the question in front of the reporter, because they’re pre-placed there,” explains Foval. “To funnel that kind of operation, you have to start back with people two weeks ahead of time and train them how to ask questions. You have to train them to bird dog.”
“I’m basically deputy rapid response director for the DNC for all things Trump on the ground,” says a new character in the undercover video.
This character says his name is Aaron Black, butit is really Aaron Minter. “Yeah, and nobody is really supposed to know about me.”
In the hidden camera video, Black shares credit with Creamer for the Chicago Trump rally which was shut down.
“So the Chicago protest when they shut all that, that was us,” says Black/Minter. “It was more him [Bob Creamer] than me, but none of this is supposed to come back to us, because we want it coming from people, we don’t want it to come from the party. So if we do a protest and it’s a DNC protest, right away the press is going to say partisan. But if I’m in there coordinating with all the troops on the ground and sort of playing the field general but they are the ones talking to the cameras, then it’s actually people. But if we send out press advisories with DNC on them and Clinton campaign it just doesn’t have that same effect.”
“So B and I did the Chicago Trump event where we shut down, like all the yeah…” confirms Rodriguez, who also admitted to shutting down the highway at a Trump event in Arizona.
“I’m saying we have mentally ill people, that we pay to do shit, make no mistake,” says Foval in the video. “Over the last twenty years, I’ve paid off a few homeless guys to do some crazy stuff, and I’ve also taken them for dinner, and I’ve also made sure they had a hotel, and a shower. And I put them in a program. Like I’ve done that. But the reality is, a lot of people especially our union guys. A lot of our union guys…they’ll do whatever you want. They’re rock and roll. When I need to get something done in Arkansas, the first guy I call is the head of the AFL-CIO down there, because he will say, ‘What do you need?’ And I will say, I need a guy who will do this, this and this. And they find that guy. And that guy will be like, Hell yeah, let’s do it.”
“Tomorrow we release our next installment of this investigation where we expose a voter fraud scheme discussed at the highest levels. The Hillary Clinton campaign is leaving nothing to chance as we have seen and will continue reveal as our undercover investigation into the dark machine of the Hillary Clinton campaign continues,” says Project Veritas Action President James O’Keefe. “Hillary, check your email.”
Project Veritas Action was founded by James O’Keefe to investigate and expose corruption, dishonesty, self-dealing, waste, fraud and other misconduct.
