Unvaccinated workers who were fired suddenly being begged to return

By WND Staff

Corporations’ mass firings of unvaccinated workers have been documented as becoming “more common” as Joe Biden repeatedly has mandated that they force their employees to accept the experimental COVID shots.

But now those companies are discovering that perhaps Biden’s leadership isn’t really what they should follow.

It’s because they are in such staffing emergencies that they are now asking their dismissed workers, the unvaccinated, to return to rescue them.

On social media, there are multiple reports:

Unvaxxed nurses were asked to come back to work because of staffing shortages pic.twitter.com/A0ilQCmdRF

One person said in a video she was removed from her nursing job on Nov. 15, but recently got a request from her company’s staffing office “asking if I could work this weekend, through the New Year.”

The firings already have happened at a wide range of companies, with groups like Northwell Health boasting of having a 100% vaccinated staff after dismissing 1,400 from their jobs.

The dismissals have been happening not only at private corporations ordered by Biden to have all employees vaxxed but also at federal agencies.

A posting at Citizen Free Press noted one unvaccinated contributor explained, “I received a surprise email today … Us coerced and shamed ones are allowed to return to work on January 10th!!!”

The note explained testing is being required.

“While there is a part of me that would LOVE to return, [I LOVED MY JOB and the people/patients/residents I worked with SO MUCH], it would be like returning to an abusive relationship…”

“Hero. Scum. Do this to make me happy. You are unworthy. I need you.”

Māori Health Council Offers Alternative Registration for Pro-Choice Health Workers

New Zealand doctors and health workers (both Māori and European) who are losing their professional registration for 1) speaking out for vaccine choice or 2) refusing to be vaccinated now have the option of applying for registration through the Whakaminenga Health Council (WHC). The latter is based on Articles 1,2, of the 1835 Wakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni and Articles 2 and 3 of the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, asserting that mana (authority) and sovereign power in New Zealand reside fully with Māori

The goal of WHC is to form a caring community-based network of duly qualified health practitioners who share its values and its commitments. Practitioners shall be immune from prosecution or censure by any authority, person, or entity, insofar as they are acting within the above stated principles, laws, and precepts in the context of their acknowledged skill set that has been vetted by the Wakaminenga Health Council (WHC) as part of their registration. The Wakaminenga Health Council shall be the sole authority to which their health practitioners are accountable.

The WHC is constituted under Tikanga Māori law and operates under Māori jurisdiction. Under the principle of first in time, first in law, Tikanga Māori law has precedence over NZ law. The NZ government recognizes Māori law as one of the two streams of law in New Zealand: “The Supreme Court has just reminded us that our law is indeed sourced in two streams and that the legal profession ought to be prepared to engage with Māori law…” (Sept.2020) https://www.lawsociety.org.nz/news/lawtalk/lawtalk-issue-943/tikanga-maori-in-nz-common-law/.
More recently the New Zealand Supreme Court stated:

“Tikanga is applicable law, and there is no negotiation of that reality. Recognising and respecting tikanga, says the court, is part of the Crown’s obligation to give effect to the principles of the Treaty.

Registration with the WHC is only available for qualified health professionals who have first registered and been accepted by the Māori government of Aotearoa Nu Tireni. Registration with the Māori government of Aotearoa Nu Tireni is open to New Zealand citizens of good character who seek to fully support Māori and agree to sign an oath provided as part of the registration process.

Best Explanation: How Big Capital is using the Pandemic shutdown to Bailout and delay inevitable Capitalist Collapse

In pre-Covid times, the world economy was on the verge of another colossal meltdown. In 2019, the world economy was plagued by the same sickness that had caused the 2008 credit crunch. It was suffocating under an unsustainable mountain of debt. Many public companies could not generate enough profit to cover interest payments on their own debts and were staying afloat only by taking on new loans. ‘Zombie companies’ (with year-on-year low profitability, falling turnover, squeezed margins, limited cashflow, and highly leveraged balance sheet) were rising everywhere. The repo market meltdown of September 2019 must be placed within this fragile economic context.

A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Systemic Collapse and Pandemic Simulation

By Fabio Vighi at https://thephilosophicalsalon

Some companies never seem to die. The corporate version of the living dead is a business that’s kept alive by financing

.. Some may have started wondering why the usually unscrupulous ruling elites decided to freeze the global profit-making machine in the face of a pathogen that targets almost exclusively the unproductive (over 80’s). Why all the humanitarian zeal? Cui bono?

Why all the humanitarian zeal? Only those who are unfamiliar with the wondrous adventures of GloboCap can delude themselves into thinking that the system chose to shut down out of compassion. Let us be clear from the start: the big predators of oil, arms, and vaccines…

Finally, Police Open Criminal Probe into UK Vaccine Rollout

Principia Scientific

Written by justthenews.com

English medical dissenter Sam White and his legal team on Monday presented what they claim is “significant and irrefutable evidence” of COVID-19 vaccine safety issues to London’s Metropolitan Police — and a criminal investigation has now been launched.

Lawyers acting on behalf of Dr. White in his ongoing legal challenge to the British government and the National Health Service demanded the vaccine rollout be stopped immediately.

“A number of government departments and in particular individuals in public office and government have been named as offenders and we have supporting evidence,” attorneys with PJH Law announced.

One of the issues White’s legal team reported to the police is the government mandate that all NHS staff must be fully vaccinated by April 1. White calls this “blackmail” to force his colleagues “to take the vaccine or lose their jobs.”

White reached notoriety back in February when he was suspended by the NHS for posting a video on Twitter which was very critical of NHS reliance on the not-fully-tested vaccines instead of using effective therapeutics such as ivermectin.

The video went viral, attracting over a million views, even though Twitter took it down after just three days — but it also led to White getting suspended from the NHS. A successful Crowdfunder campaign enabled him to successfully appeal that decision.

On Dec. 3, the U.K. High Court revoked White’s suspension and interim gag order and found that the General Medical Council had breached his human rights. 

Just two weeks later, on Dec. 17, White and his legal team applied for undertakings from the U.K.’s Medical and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) to withdraw the COVID vaccines within seven days. If they don’t comply, PJH Law intends to apply for a “High Court injunction without further notice” to force them to do so, White’s lawyers announced.

The MHRA is a British Government agency that regulates medicines, medical devices, and blood components to ensure their safety and effectiveness. White believes it has failed miserably regarding the COVID vaccines.

“These injections are unsafe, still in clinical trial, and should be withdrawn immediately,” attorney Philip Hyland wrote on behalf of White and two others to the chair of the MHRA in a summary of evidence prepared for an injunction application.

“Your failure to investigate known concerns amounts to gross negligence in office,” Hyland continued, “and renders you and the executive board liable for serious misconduct in office, mal or misfeasance in public office and, or, rendering all the office holders potentially liable for corporate manslaughter in that you have been wilfully blind to the known harms of the SARS-CoV-2 injections. You have taken no action. You have a lawful duty to protect the public, and you have wilfully [sic] failed in that duty.”

The full evidentiary summary can be read here.

The document criticizes the U.K.’s Coronavirus Act 2020, which eased the rules on certifying death certificates, meaning the doctors who sign them may have had only limited knowledge of the deceased, as previously reported in Just the News in May 2021. Under these new rules, in some cases death certificates have been signed by doctors who did not even treat the patient.

The law states: “In an emergency period, any doctor can complete the medical certificate of cause of death (MCCD), when it is impractical for the attending doctor to do so.” This raises questions about the validity of official COVID fatality numbers. 

Also, the increases in cremations over burials has meant post-mortems have further decreased. White’s lawyers quote British undertaker John O’Looney, who has written to the chief coroner requesting that full inquests and post-mortems be resumed as he has “observed an increased number of deaths amongst young, previously fit and healthy, young men.”

White is particularly incensed that the ingredients used in the injections have never been published, which means patients have not been able to give informed consent. Interviewed recently, he cited the doctor’s Hippocratic Oath, which includes doing no harm and not administering toxins.

“You do not experiment on humans,” White said,” and consent must be freely given without coercion and include a discussion about alternative treatments such as nutraceuticals, therapeutics, and an individual’s material risk of developing covid-19 or actually coming to harm from it.”

Two Views on Why Trump is Promoting the Experimental Covid Vaccine

by Brian Shilhavy
Editor, Health Impact News

Conservative talk show host Candace Owens continues to deal with controversy from her interview with Donald Trump, and recently published a video of her explaining her views on Trump.

She has publicly stated that she is against the COVID-19 shots:

“I just will never ever let that vaccine into my body. I believe firmly that Big Pharma is the greatest evil on the face of the planet. I am healthy, young, in shape and simply unafraid of Covid-19.” (Source.)

And yet, she insists that her views on the shots do not conflict with Donald Trump publicly stating how he wants everyone to get the shots, and lying to the public by stating the same lies that are coming out of the mouths of Fauci, Biden, and others that the “unvaccinated” are filling the hospitals and dying from COVID right now.

A few days ago, Dr. David Martin, who has been one of the leading voices in the Alternative Media exposing the fraud behind Sars COVID for the past two years, was interviewed by Conservative host Seth Holehouse of “Man in America” where the 1-hour interview was titled Why Does Trump Keep Promoting the Vaccine?

I have created a clip from that interview that I believe best sums up what Dr. David Martin said, and between what Candace Owens published, and the questions from pro-Trump Seth Holehouse that Dr. Martin answers, I think we have in under 10 minutes a succinct summary of the two current views about why Donald Trump is out pushing for everyone to get a COVID-19 injection.

Listen to this short video, and then answer this question for yourself: Which view is more credible?

This is from our Bitchute channel, and it is also on our Telegram channel.

The full interview with Dr. David Martin can be heard here, and the things that Dr. Martin discuss are worth your time to learn.

The pro-Trump view on why he is promoting the “bioweapon” shots that are killing and injuring so many people basically boils down to three points I constantly here from the pro-Trump cult believers:

  • Trump is ignorant about vaccines and does not understand how dangerous they really are.
  • Trump has a master plan in place that forces him to promote the vaccines for a greater purpose of bringing down the swamp/cabal at a later date.
  • It sucks that Trump pushes the kill shots, but he was obviously the better choice over Hillary Clinton, and Joe Biden.

I get emails daily from the Trump cult believers expanding on these points, and attacking me or belittling me as “stupid.”

This is a typical email I received yesterday, for example:

Subject: Please Stick to Vaccine Information and don’t wander into areas where you have no expertise!

I speak for a large group of individuals in “flyover America.” Your recent article where you denigrate Trump for his statements in the bill O’Rielly interview shows you know little of current warfare and have fallen into prophaganda put out by the Deep State.

It is clear you have no concept of or background in Military affairs so please stick to vaccine information such as side effects etc. or you will be losing many people who are currently on your subscription list.

This person, who goes by the name “Bitterroot Services and Enterprises,” then proceeded to “school me” on what they believe is the truth about Donald Trump that I am so “ignorant” about.

Other comments I frequently get are that I am “obviously a Marxist liberal” and support Biden, since I do not support Trump.

This is utter nonsense, of course, as any of our regular readers will know. I have publicly stated many, many times that the only two real “sides” that exist are the Kingdom of God which extends from heaven to earth in the spiritual realm through the true believers, and the domain of Satan which is this current world system.

Political divisions are all fake, and their purpose is to keep us all divided so we cannot fight together against our real enemies.

The History of the Muslim Empire

https://commons.princeton.edu/mg/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/MG-The_Muslim_World_circa_1111-1700.jpgEpisode 30: Islamic Expansion and Rule

The Big History of Civilizations (2016)

Dr Craig G Benjamin

Film Review

For me the most interesting part of this lecture is the thumbnail sketch Benjamin provides of the birth of Islam. After Mohammad experienced his visitation from the angel Gabriel in 610 AD, tension arising between his followers and the Bedouin Arabs who ran the city of Mecca forced the former to flee to Yethrab (later renamed Medina) in 622 AD. There Mohammad and his followers began providing social welfare services in addition to religious instruction. They also organized a Muslim military arm to protect his followers against his enemies from Mecca.

In 627 AD, Mohammad and his followers returned to Mecca where they forcibly ousted the city’s rulers and established a theocracy.* By the time of Mohammad’s death in 632 AD, his Muslim armies had conquered the entire Arabian peninsula. They then turned northward and conquered the Sassanian empire (modern day Persian and Afghanistan) and Mesopotamia. By 637 AD, they also controlled, Syria, Mesopotamia and Palestine.

Between 705-713 AD they expanded into Pakistan, in 711 AD into North Africa and in  718 AD into the Iberian peninsula (modern day Spain and Portugal).

This vast Muslim empire (the largest to this point in history), known as Dar es Islam, was ruled by a caliphate** centered in Baghdad from 762 AD. Although all subjects of the caliphate were pressured to convert to Islam, the caliphate deliberately encouraged intellectual and educational pursuits of the extremely diverse populations they had conquered. The result was an economic golden age, with substantial population growth, a revival of ancient Mesopotamian irrigation systems, the introduction of crop rotation and new methods of fertilization.

As Islam spread into Pakistan and India, Indian discoveries in astronomy, agriculture and and mathematics gradually spread from India to Persia to Mesopotamia to Mediterranean cities. A number of crops originating in India (sugar, sorghum, spinach, eggplant, lemon, banana, watermelon, cotton, rice, wheat, artichokes, oranges, limes, coconuts, mangoes) gradually made their way to the Mediterranean in this way.

Adopting the compass and paper from the Chinese, the Muslim empire established thriving overland maritime trade networks and sophisticated banking systems.

The role of women under early Islam depended on the underlying culture (eg veiling of women predated Islam in Mesopotamia, leading Muslim leaders there to mandate it). In general, elite Muslim women were expected to stay at home and not participate in public life. In contrast lower class women were allowed a public role as farmers, construction workers, midwives, spinsters, dyers, seamstresses and embroiderers and money lenders.

Dar es Islam was destroyed by Mongol invaders in 1258.


*Theocracy is a form of government in which a deity of some type is recognized as the supreme ruling authority.

**A caliphate is a public institution governing a territory under Islamic rule. The Abassid Caliphate (750-1517) was the most prominent. It relied heavily on Persian bureaucrats and

Five Important Stories Mainstream Media Has Been Ignoring in Favor of Covid Fear and Divide

NWO Report

Source: Don Via, Jr.

While the mainstream media continues to either outright propagandize the masses, or make abstruse any semblance of factual reporting, The Free Thought Project stays dedicated to bringing you the information they refuse to talk about.

Time and again MSM pundits have demonstrated themselves to be stenographers of the State rather than the arbiters of critical journalism speaking truth to power —  Particularly in this day and age where examples like this are innumerable. This is why publications like ours exist.

To that point, living in such an era of deliberate deception via the corporate press as we do, there remain a plethora of vital stories the public needs to know that tend to slip through the cracks.

As such, TFTP has decided to resurrect an old practice of ours — In addition to our regular reporting we will also put forth the initiative to provide a collection of brief updates and further insight into additional news stories kept from the public eye, but very much within the public’s right to know.

So here are five additional stories you likely haven’t heard from the mainstream media as they shoved Omicron down our throats 24/7:

1.) The Spying Scandal You Haven’t Heard Of: NodeXL.

By now most of us are aware of the constant illegal mass surveillance taking place on all members of the public at all times. Since the 2013 revelations of the NSA’s illegal spying program by Edward Snowden, it’s become common knowledge.

However, new information about the extent of the surveillance state continues to come forward, despite the lack of headline coverage of it. What many may not be aware of is that it is not just the United States that has erected a global panopticon of 24/7 snoops. Our ally Israel is arguably the next runner-up in the “how much illegal crap can we get away with” contest.

Enter NodeXL; NodeXL is a popular software package used with a multitude of different Microsoft products. It’s also recently been revealed as the means by which Israel has conducted its illegal spying operations on a plethora of unsuspecting people.

On a recent episode of RT’s “Redacted Tonight,” journalist Lee Camp was joined by cybersecurity expert Sean O’Brien who shed some light on this startling, though admittedly not necessarily surprising, disclosure.


O’Brien went on to reveal that the technology has been utilized in coordination with the United States to mount massive surveillance campaigns on a number of those targeted as “dissidents” — which include but are not limited to; supporters of Julian Assange, reporters within the alternative press, and other anti-establishment activists such as those who speak out against police brutality.

2.) New JFK Assassination Information Dismantles The Official Story

Oliver Stone is known for his legendary work as a writer and director in the film industry. Having his name attached to such classics as Scarface and Platoon. However, some of his most impactful work comes from the documentaries he’s produced regarding the life and death of President John F. Kennedy.

Stone has never been a stranger to controversy, often speaking out against the war machine and asserting the importance of critical thinking. His latest documentary continues to follow in those footsteps.

With Stone going so far as to say —

“In the years since the Warren report, there is so much more that we know. Conspiracy theories are now conspiracy facts.”

A recent report featured in Covert Action Magazine, one of the oldest independent media publications to take aim at reporting clandestine affairs, sheds light on some of the bombshell information the film uncovers — directly implicating the apparatus of American intelligence agencies.

Stone teams up with fellow JFK assassination researchers to show how the former President’s policies posed a threat to the ruling class and military-industrial complex, exposing a web of intelligence community connections to both Lee Harvey Oswald and Oswald’s killer Jack Ruby.

They also examine the IC ties to the Warren Commission beyond CIA director Allen Dulles, the Commission’s conflicts of interest, and subsequent cover-up.

JFK Revisited: Through The Looking Glass, as the name suggests is a powerful piece in which Stone revisits some of the most compelling and curious information regarding the death of President Kennedy amid the backdrop of newly uncovered information that purports to completely discredit the official story.President’s policies posed a threat to the ruling class and military-industrial complex, exposing a web of intelligence community connections to both Lee Harvey Oswald and Oswald’s killer Jack Ruby.

They also examine the IC ties to the Warren Commission beyond CIA director Allen Dulles, the Commission’s conflicts of interest, and subsequent cover-up.

Can someone help me understand the White House strategy now?

Alex Berenson

I know they’re dumb, but are they this dumb?

Guys, I don’t know how to say this any more clearly: it is OVER.

The Omicold (pronounced Immacold) variant is about to bring this clown show to its inevitable conclusion.

I know none of our supposedly non-racist public health authorities were willing to believe the South African numbers, but we now have almost a month of data out of Denmark.

They are real. And they are spectacular.

Between Dec. 13 and Dec. 20, Denmark reported approximately 50,000 confirmed Omicron cases.

Given the approximately one-week lag between infection and hospitalization, those people should be flooding into hospitals.

EXCEPT THE NUMBER OF OMICRON PATIENTS IN DANISH HOSPITALS HAS NOT RISEN IN THE LAST WEEK.

You read that right. 50,000 positive tests the week before, no change in hospitalizations. Admissions have risen slightly, but patients are being discharged as fast as they are being admitted.

The result: as of Dec. 21, Danish hospitals had 47 Omicron patients, with under five (the report is not more specific) in intensive care.

As of Dec. 27, the hospitals had 51 Omicron patients, again with under five in intensive care.

The question is no longer whether Omicron is a cold. It’s whether it’s as dangerous as a cold. (And, again, this has nothing to do with Covid vaccines; most South Africans are not vaccinated, and the pattern there was the same.)

The only sane political move at this point is to drop ALL mandates – vaccine and otherwise – and ALL asymptomatic or quarantine testing (dropping all non-hospital testing would be even better) – and declare victory and go home. Even if the country weren’t burned out on scare stories and sick of being lied to, the reality of these figures is already obvious to most people. (Including LeBron James.)

Sex Crimes of the CIA—Unreported, Unrepented, and Unpunished

[Source: thespec.com]

John Kiriakou

Covert Action Magazine

The CIA rivals the Vatican in covering up sex crimes against children and then protecting the members of its organization who commit them

Buzzfeed reported early this month that, in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, the CIA revealed that 10 employees and a contractor had committed sex crimes against children—but only one was ever charged with a crime.

Considering how well the CIA knows how to cover up what it does not want to be known, we may reasonably speculate that those crimes represent only the tip of an iceberg—and I say this as someone who served 15 years in the CIA.

The evidence that the CIA released to Buzzfeed in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit shows that the 10 employees and one contractor committed crimes including child rape, the purchase of violent child pornography, and viewing as many as 1,400 photos of nude children on a CIA computer while overseas on a work assignment.

The contractor had arranged to have sex with an undercover FBI agent who he thought was a child. The only CIA officer prosecuted for child sex crimes had also mishandled classified information. Four of the other accused employees and the contractor were fired, four were “disciplined administratively,” and the status of one is unknown.

Let’s be clear about these crimes.

These were not “he said, she said” allegations. They were serious sex crimes against children.

The Buzzfeed information, which includes both internal CIA documents and a declassified Inspector General’s report, say that besides the contractor, CIA officers admitted to, “using a government laptop to view photographs and videos of girls as young as 10 being abused by an older guy;” having sexual contact with two girls, ages two and six, and downloading illicit photos of other children; downloading 63 videos of sex between adults and children between the ages of 8 and 16; and distributing lewd photos and videos of children to other pedophiles.

One CIA officer told investigators that he “did not know it was a violation of Agency policy to access child pornography.” He was not prosecuted.

For its part, the Justice Department elected to do practically nothing, notwithstanding a statement to Buzzfeed that, “The occupation or employer of the suspect does not factor into that evaluation” (of whether or not to prosecute.) “While we cannot comment on the reasons why specific cases were declined, we do take very seriously any allegation that our prosecutors declined a potential case based on an improper assessment of the relevant factors.”

That’s nonsense. The truth is that the Justice Department was afraid of graymail. That’s the threat of a CIA officer on trial “accidentally” saying something classified or something that compromises sources and methods. It’s not worth the risk to the CIA to prosecute most cases. And the bottom line is that the CIA doesn’t care one whit about the children.

I spent 15 years at the CIA. It is a highly-sexualized environment full of type A personalities, sociopaths, and psychopaths. We had an old joke that, when you went into a meeting, you should never touch the conference room table because you didn’t know who was having sex on it the night before.

Protests over post-vaccination deaths spread across South Korea

Source: RT

Protesters gathered in Busan on Sunday after a similar rally was held in Seoul on Christmas Day. Aggrieved demonstrators held up large portraits of deceased family members – like those typically displayed at funerals in South Korea – and testified as to how their loved ones died soon after being vaccinated against Covid-19.

Dozens of funeral portraits were displayed at Saturday’s demonstration at the government complex in Seoul. Protesters called for the government to identify the causes of adverse reactions and admit that vaccines are to blame.

More than 1,000 South Koreans died shortly after receiving Covid-19 shots, but the government has confirmed a causal connection to vaccines in only a few of those cases. In one of the rare instances where a serious adverse reaction was acknowledged, a nursing assistant was recognized in August as a victim of an industrial accident and awarded government benefits after suffering paralysis in the wake of receiving AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 shot.

Just one week into its rollout of Covid-19 vaccines in late February and early March, South Korea’s Disease Control and Prevention Agency said that seven people had died and 24 had reported serious adverse reactions after receiving their AstraZeneca jabs. The government reportedly began an investigation in August after a teenager with no underlying health conditions died following inoculation with the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine.

An association called the Covid-19 Vaccine Victims and Families Council has held rallies in several South Korean cities. Demonstrators on Sunday marchedfrom Busan City Hall to Busan National University of Education, Yonhap News reported.

Vaccine safety may become a contentious issue in South Korea’s presidential election. The opposition People’s Power Party last week held a public hearing on vaccine side effects, inviting alleged victims and their family members to offer suggestions for support measures that presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol may adopt.

Kim Jong-in, the party’s campaign chairman, reportedly accused President Moon Jae-in’s administration of being indifferent on vaccine damages. The administration has pledged to compensate victims of vaccine side effects, but it’s also the arbiter of whether injuries and deaths are attributed to the jabs. “I think the people have reached a point where they can’t trust the government,” Kim said.
