steve bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
Pray for our enemies because we're going to medieval on these people.
Here's not got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.
The people have had a belly full of it.
I know you don't like hearing that.
I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.
It's going to happen.
jake tapper
And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
MAGA Media.
I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
steve bannon
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
unidentified
Waru, here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
claire dooley
I'm Claire Dooley.
We're here at the Children's Health Defense Conference.
I'm a documentary filmmaker, and I've been really enjoying having some conversations with brilliant minds today.
I'm about to be joined by scientist Kevin McKernan, who is going to be talking to us about genomics, DNA impurities, and the Pfizer and Majorna vaccines.
But before I get started, actually, Jessica Rose, we had a discussion with her at an earlier date.
You can look her up and get a little more context on her perspective of this topic.
But Kevin, thank you so much for joining us.
kevin mckernan
Thanks for having me, Claire.
claire dooley
Okay, so before we get started, and then you say that you're in genomics, I need you to explain what genomics is.
kevin mckernan
Okay, so it's a branch of molecular biology where we, so I worked on the Human Genome Project.
We sequence genomes and try to use that to better understand, well, in our case right now, our current company, we look for microbial contaminations on natural products.
So if you go into the supplement market or you go into the cannabis market or even in the food market, all of that chain is tested for E. coli, salmonella, listeria.
And you probably hear about outbreaks of that here and there throughout the news.
So I've cut my teeth in the Human Genome Project many years ago doing this.
I've built DNA sequencers and started several genomics companies.
And so I, I guess, what brings me to children health defense with all this is that I saw how they were misusing PCR tests during COVID.
claire dooley
And so we'll dive into that real quick, actually.
So PCR tests, for those of you who do not know, were the way that the majority of testing in the United States on COVID was done behind the scenes.
My sister actually was working at a lab called, actually, I don't know if I can save the name, but she was working at a lab in New Orleans doing PCR testing on different products.
Can you explain as simply as you can what a PCR test is and why it might not be the best test for an active infection like COVID?
kevin mckernan
Yeah, so PCR is a wonderful tool for amplifying a piece of DNA or RNA that might be in a given sample.
We use it all the time in the food industry and in the cannabis market.
But what it doesn't do very well unless you combine it with some other techniques is tell you whether that organism is alive or dead, because you can be at a crime scene and pick up dead DNA, right?
And that can happen in foods in many cases where they may irradiate them or decontaminate them or sterilize them in some way.
It'll still leave some DNA behind.
So the food industry knows this problem very well.
And this is why they demand whenever you're doing PCR that there's always a confirmation of the viability of the organism.
That didn't happen in COVID.
They just were getting PCR signals and not assessing whether the virus was alive or dead.
And we now know that people could be PCR positive for COVID for like 90 days, but they're only infectious for nine days.
So the vast majority of people they're running around running PCR on during COVID were people who were already recovered.
And so they were then quarantining people who you wanted in the herd.
They were destroying herd immunity with PCR because they weren't using it appropriately.
And I wrote a paper about that and got a lot of friends.
Let's just say, keep it short.
claire dooley
That might have been your intro into Maha, which we're glad to have you in Maha.
I remember one sentiment I heard a lot from a couple of different scientists and epidemiologists during COVID is that we weren't having an epidemic.
We were having an epidemic of testing, which I think I'd like to hear your thoughts on that.
kevin mckernan
Yeah, so here's the thing is that PCR can pick up live dead if you use the right tools.
They just didn't want to do that because I think they wanted the presence of a pandemic or the appearance of a pandemic.
So there are a variety of tools published out there to do live dead PCR where you can discern whether the RNA is inside of a viral capsid, if you will, or not.
They didn't want that.
They wanted something where they could crank the PCR sensitivity up so high that whenever you had a positive, you'd then go test the rest of your household.
That would give them five more tests, right?
So there was a financial motivation for them to have very high positivity in PCR because it created an exponential return on investment.
If I get one positive from you and every positive I get gives me five more because you live in a household, this spreads a return on investment exponentially or geometrically.
So that did happen.
They definitely were overcalling the pandemic with PCR.
And this also attributed to them labeling a lot of other deaths as COVID deaths because PCR signals could be detected in hospitals in almost everybody, even if that wasn't the exact cause of death.
claire dooley
Right, right.
Actually, I traveled the country on the CHD bus where we interviewed thousands of parents and victims of the COVID hospital protocols.
And, you know, when the protocols weren't working, what do we do in medicine?
We change them.
But during COVID, the bureaucrats, the hospital administration, said, nope, this is what we're doing.
We're not doing anything else.
There were a lot of really brave doctors like Dr. Pierre Corey, American frontline doctors who changed their protocols and saved a lot of people.
Some of them had zero patients die.
But some of the stories we heard on the bus store were interesting, that someone would go in for something completely different.
But if they tested positive for COVID, were quarantined from their family, later put on a ventilator, when we know once you're put on a ventilator, your odds of surviving are much lower and consequently passed away.
If you want to learn more about that, go to chd.tv and look up VAX3.
I'm in there.
My baby girl's in there.
Our whole story is there.
But Kevin, I wanted to actually move on and talk about the DNA impurities.
So talk us through, you tested Pfizer and Moderna shots and found some DNA impurities.
Tell us about that.
kevin mckernan
Yeah, so after I wrote that paper on PCR, people started sending me vials.
And I didn't have a good use for them and I didn't know who they came from.
But one day when I needed an RNA for a particular experiment, I decided I grab a Pfizer and a Moderna vial and throw them into this experiment as a control to see if they'd come out.
And they did come out, but they came out with other plasmids in there that no one was expecting to be there.
So this is background in the manufacturing process.
Some would call it a process-related impurity, but it's really a contamination in my mind because they did not inform the regulators of certain sequences that were in there.
And so this is a piece of DNA that's utilized to make the RNA.
And if they were done correctly, all that DNA would be gone and you'd have pure RNA.
In fact, that's what you were told on the label, that this is just an RNA shot.
And you probably heard them tell you, it'll never integrate to your genome because it's only RNA.
And it'll stay in the injection site.
That was wrong.
And yes, RNA can integrate into your genome with reverse transcription, but we won't go there.
The real problem is if there's DNA there, it can definitely integrate because DNA is prone to integrate, particularly if it has some of these SV40 components.
So the SV40 components are, the Pfizer vaccine has them, Moderna does not.
They have no business being in a vaccine because they are elements that allow that vaccine to replicate inside of mammalian hosts.
And there's no reason for your vaccine to be replicating inside the patient.
That's dangerous because it could shed and it could never turn off, if you will.
So when we found that those components were there, we raised the alarm.
We published some papers on this.
They've since been replicated all over the world, finally peer-reviewed in multiple places now.
And there's a general acceptance now that, okay, we have vaccines now that are contaminated.
The FDA is not doing anything about this.
And they arguably are an exhibit of fraud because these components were not disclosed to anybody during the administration of the vaccines.
claire dooley
When you say peer-reviewed, I think a lot of people know what that means.
But when we talk about this paper being replicated, also basically meaning that other scientists have tested Kevin's beliefs or his findings, not beliefs, has tested your findings and verified them to be true.
I would love for you to touch on that and then also move on to the weaponization of science and how scientists like you come under attack.
kevin mckernan
Oh, sure.
So, you know, peer review is kind of a new, there's some sorted history to how peer review started.
And if you want to learn about that, there's a great article that talks about Maxwell, Robert Maxwell, who's actually Ghislaine Maxwell's father, who really kicked off this church of peer review.
It's a gatekeeping operation.
In science, we don't really care as much about peer review as we care about reproduction.
If other scientists can replicate the work, that's what matters.
Because peer review right now is just somebody reading your journal and guessing whether it'll reproduce.
But they don't actually do anything to prove it or not.
But when people actually hit the bench, that's what matters.
So Bridget Koenig has reproduced this.
Ulrich Kamer has reproduced this.
Dedio Riolts reproduced this.
A bunch of high school students actually went into the FDA lab and reproduced it.
Wang et al. reproduced this.
So there's a long list of people who have done this.
David Speaker as well.
So we have reproduction now.
And that's the most important aspect.
But in terms of the weaponization of science, yes, peer review is one of these things where, for some reason in the sciences, if you ever get a retraction, it's like a career-ending move, which it shouldn't be.
But this, yeah, it's like a blacklisting event.
That does tremendous damage, I think, to the process of science because then people.
Science is inquiry.
And so if you can never make a mistake during inquiry, you will end up never finding new things, right?
It's a conformity system.
If you're afraid to make a mistake and you get completely castigated and thrown aside if you make a mistake in science and it ends your career, who is going to venture outside of the norms and question things like Galileo did, right?
We need to have an environment that encourages people to make mistakes and publish oftentimes papers that are risky and maybe someone will find a mistake in there, but you don't have to have a career-ending move just because you have typos and what have you, which is what it's turning into.
When it comes into the pandemic, took place, there are mobs that assembled online to run around and retract papers not because they had errors in them, but because they were counter-narrative.
They didn't say safe and effective in the opening sentence of a paper.
And they didn't say these vaccines are great.
They saved millions of lives, but they might cause cancer.
That's the kind of tone you're seeing in peer review right now: they all have to have this opening psalm that the vaccines save lives, but they cause cancer.
claire dooley
Though it's greatly reduced, the mortality of diseases across, you know, this whole, this whole rhetoric.
Kevin, so I want to just go back to this point one more time.
Why is this paper important?
I want to talk about why this paper is important, and then I want to move on and talk a little bit about cannabis and autism.
kevin mckernan
Okay, certainly.
So the paper is really important because it highlights all the evidence behind what we believe is a fraudulent act that occurred at Pfizer.
Now, for those who don't know, you need to read Retsef Levy's and the ACIP Committee.
He's got a very important paper in the BMJ with Josh Gutskow that highlights that Pfizer actually did not give the same product to the public that they put through the clinical trial.
That's a major issue.
They used PCR to make the DNA they used as input to their manufacturing and process one.
That was what the clinical trial was on.
They did the debate and switch, and they switched to this other process where they made the DNA in E. coli, and that dramatically changes the DNA.
It's got a lot more, it's got this SV40 stuff in it now, and it's got methylated DNA.
And there's, I can touch on why that methylation stuff is an issue, but it's a bit of a bit of a rabbit hole.
Anyway, that excess DNA can trigger cancer pathways when it's in an LNP and gets put into cells.
And that's the concern we have: that this could be an oncogenic event that's occurred by having this contamination.
Now, I think you wanted to segue from that into why is a paper so important in terms of proving that is that we demonstrate the numbers are over the limit.
The FDA has a particular 10 nanogram limit.
claire dooley
The numbers of DNA impurities.
So it's over what they're saying.
kevin mckernan
That's over what they're saying.
And I think the paper is also reminding the scientific community that how did we generate that 10 nanogram limit?
Because in the past, vaccines weren't delivered with lipid nanoparticles.
They're just injected into your arm.
And your arm pretty much destroys DNA in like 10 minutes if it's not wrapped in a lipid nanoparticle.
In fact, they had to put that wrapping on the messenger RNA to get it to work or semi-work, right?
It doesn't get into the cell.
So now that we're using a lipid nanoparticle, the half-life of DNA needs to be remeasured.
Like the 10 nanogram limit is a thousand-fold too high.
And the scientific community needs to prove that the limits that are currently in place for traditional vaccines, whether they're sufficiently adequate for what we're doing with lipid nanoparticles.
We don't think they are.
We think it's much more dangerous now that you have lipid nanoparticles involved and that those limits need to be changed.
The paper walks through all the reasoning on why is it over the limit, why the limit is too high to begin with, and what are the cancer risks that are imposed by having these SV40 components that are inside the plasmid vaccine or the Pfizer vaccine, which were never disclosed to the regulators.
And the regulators have come out admitting they were deceived.
claire dooley
At the Children's Health Depths Conference, where we are now, they did a panel on turbo cancers.
You guys should definitely go to chdchildrensouth events.org and look up this panel, learn more about turbo cancers.
We also touched on that with Jessica Rose.
You know, nobody is, especially this particular paper that you've written is not saying that this is causing cancer, but you also are asking the question: you know, should we be cautious about this?
Should we look into this?
unidentified
Yes.
kevin mckernan
And that's why it's getting targeted for retraction is because they're not arguing about our details of what we found from the methods.
They're arguing that we're making associations with cancer that are unproven.
But we're very clear in the paper that we're speculating here that there are links to SV40 and cancer.
This should be looked at.
It wasn't disclosed.
claire dooley
It's a crime to ask a question.
kevin mckernan
Yeah, I mean, the people that do this, they even try to retract it.
If you put a hypothesis out there, they don't like, they go and retract your hypothesis.
It's gotten to be ridiculous.
So peer review is going to die.
I mean, the thing is, there are ways to do this now on decentralized peer review systems.
So what we've been doing is moving to Bitcoin.
We're putting our papers, etching them into Bitcoin and onto Nostra.
claire dooley
I would love to see your work continue and not be at risk of retraction as long as you're doing good science, which it seems like you are.
So we've been talking about DNA impurities and the Pfizer Moderna shots.
They have published this paper.
It's been replicated across the world in a couple of different spots.
Obviously, the establishment does not want this to happen.
So we are expecting to come under attack, but that's okay.
You know, we actually at the Maha Institute had a roundtable on the weaponization of science.
And in this roundtable, we'll discuss that these days, as long as you're doing good science, you're not committing fraud, threat of retraction usually means you're doing something right.
And so I wanted to go back to that one more time with you, Kevin.
What does your paper mean?
Why is it important?
Why should America be mad?
kevin mckernan
Yeah, so the paper highlights a deception that's occurred with the vaccines.
All right.
So we need to have transparency on these things.
We gave these things to billions of people.
They were liability-free.
There were mandates involved.
And yet, we're discovering that there are hidden components inside these vaccines only because citizens are sequencing them on their own.
Nowadays, that's kind of embarrassing because the UNA sequencing can be done like on a phone-sized instrument.
I mean, they're like USB sticks that cost maybe five grand.
There are even high school kids I mentioned before that went into the FDA laboratory were able to find this stuff.
So the regulation is not happening.
When there isn't liability, there won't be regulations.
The paper is important because it shows what happens when you don't have liability in a process that the FDA is not going to monitor this and that it's going to become contaminated.
And you're going to have components in there that could be a cancer risk that are undisclosed to the FDA and sneak right through, and no one sees it until billions of people are injected.
You have to back up and recognize that now, while there is some cancer going on, right?
We saw people speak about this, right?
This is a major attack surface, I think, on the evolution of humanity.
Like, if you let them inject the entire world with something that's this poorly tested, it could have killed off the entire species.
Now, obviously, that didn't happen.
I'm being hyperbolic.
But you have to recognize that a liability-free mandate like this, where no one's looking at what's in it, is a major attack.
claire dooley
We cannot afford to be nonchalant.
We cannot afford to have loose ends, right?
Because the cost of that is people dying.
The cost of that is people being injured.
The cost of that is people getting cancer.
And it's, at the end of the day, our lives that are affected by bureaucrats who are not ever held accountable.
kevin mckernan
Exactly right.
If you have no accountability like this, this could be an extinction-level event if it happens again and they have something more toxic than what we found in this one.
So this has to change.
Like there has to be liability.
They can have mandates.
And we need to sequence every single vaccine that's ever been out because now I don't believe in the purity of any of them.
When I see what I found in this one, that was apparently warp speed and had the biggest pharmaceutical companies involved.
What's in all the other ones?
Has anyone looked?
I mean, there's no liability on those either.
claire dooley
Well, I actually would like to touch on that.
I made a documentary about fertility regulating vaccines in Africa, which sounds as horrible as it is.
And also, it's something that I didn't want to be true.
I think when I was working on the project, I was having a hard time admitting to myself that it was true.
But I reviewed the papers.
I mean, what happened in Kenya is at the World Health Organization, they deployed a neonatal tetanus program where they were targeting women of reproductive age, giving them five shots spread six months apart, which is identical to the research they did on a tetanus vaccine that was conjugated with HCG.
So that means basically they took this tetanus toxoid, this tetanus toxin, they chemically binded it to human chorionic gonadotropin, which when a woman takes a pregnancy test, that's that first hormone that signals the baby's there.
And so what that did was when they injected it into a woman, it would attack the HCG in her body and cause her to miscarry.
And so they did this in many third world countries.
This one particular country in Kenya, doctors on the ground seize the vials and they tested them in a lab.
They did HPLC tests.
You're familiar with that.
And we were given the results.
And, you know, it was covered up.
The media said, oh, it's debunked.
You know, these doctors, they didn't know what they're talking about.
We made a documentary I produce with RFK Jr. and Mary Holland at Children's Self-Defense called Infertility.
If you go to infertilitymovie.org, you can watch it for free.
It's around 30 minutes.
But that is a crime against humanity.
And that is a very dark reality.
And I would say that that was intentional.
I don't think that there is a way that you could say that's not intentional because there's no other program in the world that gives women five doses of tetanus shots spread six months apart because that's not how immunity works.
You're supposed to have it for up to 10 years.
So, Kevin, I would love for you to watch that at some point.
I'll send you a link.
kevin mckernan
What can I say other than I'm not surprised anymore?
claire dooley
Right.
And that's the weaponization of science.
Right.
Earlier, we interviewed a speller called Caden and his mother, Jen.
And he is a non-speaking autistic adult, but he communicated to us that one of his top priorities for autistic adults in America is biomedical interventions.
And I was just chatting.
And biomedical interventions means instead of a behavioral therapy, when an autistic adult is having a meltdown and screaming and pulling at their head and having all these issues, they say, hey, this isn't behavior.
Something's wrong.
They're in pain, right?
And so let's address that pain.
Let's address them medically.
Let's see what we can do for them.
So, Kevin, you have done some work with medical cannabis and autistic.
kevin mckernan
Yes, we have.
So, I spent five years in a CLIA laboratory sequencing kids with autism, epilepsy, and mitochondrial disease.
And that's when a lot of parents came to us asking, can you clean up the cannabis supply chain?
We need to get CBD, and we don't trust the vendors because the plants keep changing from Charlotte's Web to Otto to, you know, you name it, ACDC.
So, the cannabis market is being a bit of a black market.
It's hard to track what they're actually getting CBD from.
And sometimes when the strains change, you get different ratios of cannabinoids that come out of this.
So, it's very important to dial in on this because some of the kids will respond to CBD, some will respond to CBG, some controversially need THC.
And from the information I hear from the physicians, is while people may think that would get pediatric kids stoned, in the case of autism, they're not actually seeing that.
They don't think they're stoned.
They think it's actually damping down some type of neural inflammation so they're actually back to baseline and they feel normal.
And there are ways that you can assess this based on either memory tasks or agitation.
claire dooley
If you're a speller, you could communicate what's going on.
kevin mckernan
Absolutely.
Yes.
Yeah.
So I encourage people to look at some of the videos we have at CanMed.
So we run a medical cannabis conference this year.
It's in Lake Tahoe in June, June 12th, I think, to the 14th.
What's the website right here?
Canmed.com.
That's C-A-N-N, M-E-D.
We've been running this for 10 years.
It started at Harvard Med School and has now been moving around the country each year to a different location.
But the physicians there and all of their videos and their presentations are online for free.
So if you have a child that's impacted, whether it be vaccine injury or autism, there's a wealth of information there to go through and figure out the different types of cannabinoids they're using for various types of epilepsy and autism.
And they're having remarkable success with patients like this.
I think the basis behind it is there's some type of neural inflammation going on.
Yes, there can be some genetic predispositions, but that's not the driver.
The genes don't change this fast.
Toby Rogers is totally right there, but you can sometimes sequence them and figure out which drugs they're not going to respond well to.
Like there are some cases in epilepsy where you don't want to take certain types of anti-eleptic drugs based in your genetics, right?
So that can perhaps be informative.
But the sequencing loss thing also taught us that most of these kids have some form of neuroinflammation.
And if you combine that with other toxins like Tylenol, which makes a toxic liver byproduct that you've probably heard about recently, NAPQ1, you know, Tylenol is an interesting story.
When they outlawed cannabis, Tylenol got put in place.
It's a cannabinoid mimetic.
The active part of Tylenol is AM404.
That increases nandamide levels in the blood.
CBD does the same thing, but doesn't have the toxic liver byproduct.
So they made a cannabinoid toxic when they're normally non-toxic.
It sounds like pharmaceuticals, you're right.
Take a natural product and make it worse and outlaw the other one.
So there's a wealth of information on the endocannabinoid system with autism and epilepsy.
Now, there's even FDA-approved versions of certain cannabinoids for epilepsy.
So this isn't like, you know, woo-woo-hocus-pocus natural medicine stuff.
They've gotten things through the FDA and they've got physicians using this quite effectively on many patients in that space.
And the one other piece I'd add is the MTHFR genetics may be important as well.
That's the folate pathway.
So when that sometimes is impaired, you can't detox as well.
And you're going to have a collision perhaps with other toxins like vaccines and Tylenol.
claire dooley
Yeah, I feel like we're just hitting the tip of the iceberg, you know, with President Trump's announcement about Tylenol.
I feel like there was a lot that got lost in the weeds, but one thing that's big.
The one thing that we could take home from that is that HHS is taking this autism issue seriously and that folate deficiencies and folate itself have a relationship in some way to autism.
And I'm really excited to see what happens because I know that in my lifetime, we will see the end of the autism epidemic.
We will know the cause.
We will know how to prevent it.
And we will get justice for those who have been hurt.
Kevin, we've got a minute.
Please give us any of your final thoughts.
kevin mckernan
Well, if I encourage people to look at, if you're interested in the endocannabinoid system, I think go to CanMed or at least view those videos.
They're free online.
There's a wealth of information there.
Those physicians have been fighting this fight for 50 years.
So they're the meme that you see of, you know, the guy that's getting himself in a noose and is about to hang and the guy's going first time.
Those are cannabis physicians as they march into this ivermectin mess.
There's been a war on drugs for a long time.
Many of the drugs that they are attacking are, in fact, safer alternatives to what's out there.
And you just have to educate yourself on them.
Yes, there's some recreational issues that you have to be aware of and how to mitigate those, but don't throw the baby out with bathwater on this.
There's some very important natural medicines out there.
And I think that's where we need to go in the Maha movement is get away from this addiction to synthetics and move back to the pharmacopeia that we pulled out of the forest and start categorizing this and making that stuff safer and distribute it to physicians who are outside of the insurance industry and direct primary.
claire dooley
Absolutely.
Kevin, we're going to make America healthy again.
We're here at the Children's Health Defense Conference and children's health offense will not stop until that is accomplished.
So thank you so much, Kevin, and we'll be back to you guys after a break.

claire dooley
I'm Claire Julie.
I'm a documentary filmmaker.
I'm here at the Children's Health Defense Conference.
This is the moment of truth in Austin, Texas.
RFK Jr. is sitting as the secretary of HHS.
We have a president in office who appears to be listening to us, but that will not stop and really change what we do.
We're going to keep doing what we've always done, which is fight for our children, those who have been injured by vaccines, and educate the public so that they can have informed consent.
So I'm very proud to be sitting next to the president of Children's Health Defense, Mary Holland, and also our lovely Michael Caine.
kevin mckernan
Nice to be here.
claire dooley
Yeah.
Mary, I want to talk about what has been happening today at the conference.
Let's start with talking about the senators that spoke to us.
mary holland
Yes, it was another amazing day, our second day.
And we had two senators appear this morning.
Both of them wanted to be here in person, but because of votes related to the shutdown, they had to call in from D.C.
So, first, we heard from Senator Rand Paul.
He was talking in part about his book called Deception, and he has really done a great deep dive on what happened in China, what were the lies and corruption and cover-up that led us to the ridiculous story that COVID came from a wet market.
And then he moved from the cover-up in China to the cover-up in the United States.
And because so much of the funding that went to gain of function research was frankly illegal and was tied up with Chinese research labs, there's been an enormous effort on cover-up here.
He let us know that he has attempted to bring Dr. Tony Fauci, former head of the National Institutes of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, to the Senate to testify on a voluntary basis.
He can subpoena him, but he would prefer that he come in on a voluntary basis.
It will be more difficult if he has to subpoena him.
It'll take longer.
So they're in negotiations, he told us, which is really exciting.
He was, you know, he really is the person more than anybody, I think, who's been trying to get to the bottom of what's happened at NIAID and what happened with COVID and the spread and who's really accountable and holding them accountable.
And he told us that now that Secretary Kennedy is in office at HHS, he is starting to get access to a lot of the correspondence that went down.
But he really articulated for us the reality of the deep state in hiding this information and the competition between these different agencies.
But that this is really a real issue and he's really dedicated to it.
So that was great.
He was followed by Senator Ron Johnson.
And truly, the vaccine injured from COVID and from the childhood schedule have had no better champion in the Senate than Ron Johnson.
And Ron Johnson talked about the hearings that he's had, about the briefings that he did, about his commitment to working for these people, asking us to help him get people to him who could testify about what happened during COVID and about vaccine injury generally.
And so, you know, for us, Claire, who were so, we have been so marginalized for so long, you know, we talk into the air and it goes nowhere.
For us to have two sitting senators, third-term senators, at our conference opening the second day, that's an incredible vote of confidence in what we do and the truth that we're telling.
And so it was very, very gratifying.
claire dooley
Absolutely.
I mean, I mean, getting to see someone like Ron Johnson and Rand Paul contributing to the Children's Health Defense Conference.
I mean, it says a lot about what CHD has been able to accomplish over the past few years.
And also, I mean, both of them seemed very excited about what we're doing in the future, too.
mary holland
Yeah, I mean, they genuinely really regretted being here because they know that we support them and that we are supporting the work that they're doing.
And so, there's a relationship there.
claire dooley
Absolutely.
I wanted to move on and talk a little bit about, we saw today Forbidden Facts with Gavin DeBecker.
We talked about the, you know, breaking down the mainstream measles narrative.
mary holland
I really want to talk about it.
So, Gavin DeBecker just wrote a book and published it and gave free copies to everybody at this conference.
It has a thousand copies.
And it's an amazing book called Forbidden Facts: Unwanted Truth.
And literally, he talks about the history of the Institute of Medicine that people would imagine is a government agency.
It's actually not.
It's now called the National Academy of Medicine.
But it's basically a hired gun.
It's a gun for hire, often hired by the government.
And so he walks us through the lies that they told around asbestos and talc, around Asian orange in the Vietnam War, around other industrial products where the Institute sides with the industry or with the government.
And then he brings us up to autism.
And he walks us through the literally tragic, comic documentation of transcripts from meetings that were held around what were they going to do around thimerosol.
And he says, you know, the first thing on the first day is, we're never going to say that vaccines cause autism.
We're never going to change the childhood vaccine schedule.
All we're going to do, there's a bunch of scientists allegedly.
We're just going to word Smith so that we can craft a narrative that will confuse people, but say that we're not responsible.
And so then he actually did invoices, Claire, like Dr. Berg and Dr. Goodman.
And it is literally, we were laughing because it's so ridiculous.
It is absolutely, it is absolutely a ridiculous narrative.
I highly recommend this book, Forbidden Facts.
It's short, it's to the point, it will make you laugh.
But it's also a really serious book about the level of dishonesty that really pervades some of the highest scientific and medical institutions in the world.
claire dooley
Yeah, that is Forbidden Facts, The Unwanted Truth by Gavin DeBecker.
Totally look up the book, get it.
We have it at our house, and I've started reading it.
It's pretty fascinating.
I want to switch tone to the measles epidemic, quote unquote, or breakout, I guess they would call it, in Texas.
You know, right as RFK Jr. went to sit as HHS secretary, the media started this whole campaign about a measles outbreak in Texas where supposedly three people died of measles.
Well, we had one of the parents of one of those children who died.
And we had two, I think almost two or three doctors.
Actually, I would actually like for you to talk a little bit about this measles panel that we had today, Michael.
It was covered on CHG TV at the time.
So if you want to go back and look at those interviews, you can check them out at chg.tv.
But Michael, tell us a little bit about what was discussed today.
michael caine [trucker]
The measles panel was phenomenal.
We had Dr. Ben Edwards there, a true, true hero who really treated sick children who simply had an infection and did it the proper way.
He also invested hundreds of thousands of dollars of his own money to airlift sick children that were needed at times.
We actually, at Children's Health Defense, we honored him and gave him our Defender of the Year award for 2025.
He so, so deserved it.
He was there talking about the experience, dealing with it, and implementing proper protocols.
At one point, he was even talking about it interfacing with then head of the CDC, Menares, who is no longer the head of the CDC now, about the protocols he was doing, about what was happening from cod liver oil, making sure these children were getting vitamin A, natural remedies that were helping.
They also had Pierre Corey on the panel, a medical doctor, a critical care doctor, who was able to analyze the medical records of the children alleged to have died of measles.
And he says unequivocally, shockingly to him, they did not die of measles.
They died of medical error and medical malpractice that disgusted him.
He couldn't believe what he was reading and what he was.
Some basic, basic things that weren't.
claire dooley
Some of these hospitals were teaching hospitals, from what I understood as well.
So, yeah, there's some really basic errors that were made.
And would you be able to speak a little bit to Daisy, her father, the little girl who passed away?
The dad talked a little bit about the discrimination that they had in the hospital, right, for being unvaccinated.
michael caine [trucker]
Peter Hildebrand was here with us and bravely got on the stage.
His wife was here and was not comfortable getting on the stage, but she did come and support her husband and he's supporting her.
And yeah, he spoke to the discrimination that happened to them.
He spoke to coming to the hospital one, two, three, four times for the same thing before being referred to a specialist.
He talked about his daughter having thrush.
Well, then they looked in the throat.
They saw that there was a white coating back there.
And they said, oh, that looks like that's due to some sanitary problems that this child or the home might have.
Like completely horrible diagnoses that made no sense, that seemed even, I might even say classist, you know, definitely discriminatory.
These people, I mean, they're the salt of the earth, right?
I mean, when I was talking, you know, to Peter about him coming here, he apologized to me a couple of times.
I helped him get here and make travel arrangements and such.
He apologized for actually saying to me, you know, I'm like really poor and I'm sorry, you know, I'm not able to pay to get there and things like this.
And I totally can see when you hear the whole narrative, how the hospital would just treat them as something they didn't need to care about, that they didn't need to worry about.
People who they would tell what to do and not inform and not engage them in the process.
And this happens to people regardless of their class or status, that doctors end up treating us just like a product.
I have five minutes for you.
We need to get this done.
We need to move on.
And tragically, that ended up resulting in the death of at least two children misdiagnosed as being from measles.
That's not what it was.
It was medical error and it was malpractice.
claire dooley
Yeah, this is actually a topic that CHG TV and children's health defense films covered in VAX3.
So VAX3, CHG bus with Polytomi traveled the country.
I was one of the filmmakers involved in that.
We covered countless people, I mean, thousands of people, especially during the COVID hospital protocols during the lockdowns that said that as soon as they found out that that individual was unvaccinated, completely different tone.
I mean, some people were told that they deserved to die for being unvaccinated.
And I think that there was in Peter's original interview at CHGTV, which you can find, he did describe the mistreatment that they received.
I mean, he even described this little girl, you know, who is so weak because of this issue of the medical malpractice that they had.
And they're talking about her like she's already dead and she's sitting there right.
You know, I mean, it's really dark and very upsetting when it comes to this is what we're fighting for, right?
I mean, if you want to speak to that, Mary, we have two more minutes and we'll take a short break.
michael caine [trucker]
There's one thing I do want to add.
There was another woman from the Mennonite community that came here named Tina.
She's a leader in the community.
You know, everybody really looks up to her.
And to hear her heartfelt thank you to Children's Health Defense and to hear her just on the brink of tears to talk about how important it is to educate people about what happened, to speak up about this, to show up when the most horrible things happen to your family and to your kid, to be able to have a community to rely on.
She was so appreciative of everything that Dr. Brian Hooker, Polly Tommy, Ben Edwards, Children's Health Defense, CHD TV, Pierre Corey, all of these things that our community did to stand with them.
Who would have they have been with?
I mean, who would they have stood with if not for us?
And lastly, I just want to say Secretary Kennedy, who came down there and treated them like humans, who posed for photos with them, who went to the funeral.
It's just our community.
It's just one of those moments where I realize just how important our community is and the work that we do.
unidentified
Yeah.
mary holland
I just want to add to that that this was a small, very fundamental religious community.
It was a Mennonite community, and Tina was kind of like the intermediary.
And the outside world was trying to get in and characterize these people as backward and stupid and don't vaccinate their children and weird.
And it was Tina who humanized them.
And I think we humanized them and brought them onto CHG to tell their stories.
These were wonderful people who love their children and they had suffered severe vaccine injury.
That's the reason they didn't give their children these vaccines because they'd seen the harms.
And they were doing this out of love for their children and their community.
And so we saw these heroes like Dr. Ben Edwards, who is not a member of that community, but he made sure that they were treated with dignity and respect and good care.
And I think we at Children's Health Defense wanted to honor that and honor this community for their choices that they are entitled to make.
So informed consent.
That's what it's all about.
We're not going to judge anybody for what medical decision they make, but we want them to have the truth to rely on and we want them to have the right to a choice.
claire dooley
This has been, in many ways, a historic weekend.
I mean, the people that have come together and the momentum that we're feeling here, in my opinion, I have been in this for the past 10 years, but I have seen this snowball effect.
And I think it's only going to grow.
It's only going to get bigger.
And you should join us.
And I want to tell the guests how they can join us.
I want to explain to them once again, who is CHD?
What is CHD doing?
Sure.
mary holland
Sure.
Yeah, Claire, we want you.
And we're so grateful to Steve Bannon's War Room for letting us have this opportunity to extend our audience and to have you know about what we're doing.
So we engage in four different areas: education, advocacy, science, and litigation, around one mission, and that is to end the epidemic of chronic childhood disease.
Our country has over 50% of sick children with some kind of chronic condition, asthma, allergies, autism, ADHD, diabetes, cancer, awful diseases that children should not have.
I love the saying of Secretary Kennedy: a healthy child has a thousand dreams, but a sick child has but one.
We cannot afford as a country to have over 50% of our children have only one dream, which is to be healthy again.
And so, what our job is, is to reduce that back to maybe a level that we can't change or try to drive it to zero.
Would love to be out of business in five to ten years with chronic disease at under 10 percent.
That's really where the starting point was in 1980s when we started to see this incredible rise.
But we put out a daily newsletter, THE Defender.
It's free, sign up Childrenshealthdefense ORG.
We put out daily uh videos on a streaming platform, live Chdtv.
GOOD Morning CHD every day 10 A.m eastern.
It's an amazing, amazing series.
Michael does a show, I do a co-show with Polytommy.
It's really, really fun and and, and I think, really educational.
Um we're engaged in litigation.
We have several cases right now before the U.s Supreme Court.
We've won really important victories against mandates, against masks, against pcr testing, um four religious exemptions for medical exemptions.
This is a course and in the area of electromagnetic radiation really no other organization is doing the kind of litigation that we're doing there and we're doing original science around vaccines.
The government should have a hundred years ago done comparisons of unvaccinated versus vaccinated people.
It was really never done.
We're doing that research now.
We're doing those analyses right now and we're proving that unvaccinated people are healthier than vaccinated people full stop.
So I think that the mission that we're on is really important.
We absolutely appreciate any and all support and engagement with what we're doing.
claire dooley
It's been a great weekend and we're really grateful for you to tuning in and speaking of one of the branches of activism, Michael Cain, that is one of your involvements uh, grassroots.
Let's talk a little bit about that, how people can get involved in what you do.
michael caine [trucker]
Yeah, i'm actually the director of advocacy uh at Children's Health Defense and you know, Steve Bannon often talks about this historic Maga MAHA Alliance.
Uh, that just happened just in in 2024, you know, with uh, Robert Fennedy Jr and Trump joining forces, and we have this very unique window.
A lot of medical freedom work is on the state level and it will always continue to be, but now we have this federal opportunity where we can engage our federal elected representatives and senators, engage the executive branch, and so this is something where myself, Mary Holland and all those other organizations uh that are doing great work, we're starting to look in that direction too.
What is the window of time that we have to make impact nationally, on the federal level for?
I'll just give one example, there is the Grace Act which representative Stuby in Florida has brought, which would guarantee, at bare minimum, the right to a religious exemption to vaccination.
There are currently five states where you can't get a religious exemption to vaccination, California, New York Maine, Connecticut and West Virginia, where there's still a dispute.
Um, after these last elections, we sure knew.
We just saw New Jersey and Virginia.
We are concerned about Massachusetts, we're concerned about Hawaii, we're concerned about the Grace Act would guarantee that either you have a religious exemption in your state or you won't get federal education funds, and that's representative Stuby.
We have a couple of dozen co-sponsors there, and these are things that we are working on and exploring to see what is the national strategy that we have in Dc.
How do we have an uh an impact?
So tune into Childrenshealthdefense.org and sign up for the defender uh, and stay tuned to what we're doing, because we have action alerts and we have things that are coming up on a very regular basis.
That's just one thing that we're working on.
There's so many different strategies and activations we're doing on the federal and on the state level too.
claire dooley
Absolutely, Mary Holland.
Uh, we have.
We've got one minute um give us any final thoughts over the weekend.
mary holland
It's one of the most important things we do, and Michael's involved, is creating a sense of community.
Oftentimes, up until now, people have felt pretty alone.
If you're the only person in your family who didn't go get a COVID shot or who doesn't want to vaccinate your kids, you can feel like it's tough, it's lonely, and you can be sort of ostracized from your family.
One of the amazing things that Children's Health Defense does is it helps to create that sense of community.
It helps you to find other people who feel the same way you do, that they want to stand up for your rights to make your own decisions for yourself and your children.
And so, the conference is an important way to do that.
The chapters are an important way to do that.
Finding out, we have a community forum is another way to do that.
We have monthly online meetings is another way to do that.
Come join us.
If you care about health freedom, we want you to be part of our team.
And we're a big umbrella.
We've got all kinds of other groups here with us this weekend.
We don't want to be the only group by any stretch of the imagination, but we're an important one where I think any person can find a home if they want it.
claire dooley
Go ahead, Michael.
michael caine [trucker]
There's one thing that was a little novel this weekend that I want to bring up.
Last night we had this really wonderful dinner where Russell Brandon, Cheryl Hines, came, and it was just so great to see from the comedy of Russell Brand.
And just he did this thing where he just posed for photos for like an hour with everybody that was there, getting business cards from people.
And then he went up and he went through every business card and kind of made fun of everybody that was there of what was happening.
And just, it was just so great.
Everyone had a great time.
And then he interviewed Cheryl Hines about her book, about her going on the view recently, about her defending Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services, where everybody is saying he's not a doctor.
And she totally dismantled that.
And you know, Mary, it's just to see Cheryl Hines' own progression in her own education and willing to now step out and come speak at a children's health defense event without Bobby Kennedy on her own.
That's so awesome.
I mean, shout out to Cheryl Hines.
I've just really seen some great stuff.
It was a really fun night last night.
claire dooley
All right, you guys, it was an amazing weekend.
