How many times have you heard someone say: “I got the flu shot, and I still got the flu anyway”?

Bill Maher says he once got the flu shot and “immediately” came down with the flu.

Lara Trump’s mother had an even worse experience. As a nurse, she got the flu shot every year—and “every time [she’d] ever gotten it, [she’d] get the flu immediately after it.”

Now, she doesn’t get it anymore.

Why do so many people get sick after the flu shot?

This thread explores why that happens—and what really happens inside the body right after a vaccine. 🧵

For decades, vaccines have been marketed as “safe and effective.”

No questions. Nothing else to consider. Safe and effective. Full stop.

But a mountain of buried medical research and endless reports from the vaccine-injured show a very different pattern—one that has repeated for more than a century.

In disease after disease, across multiple countries and multiple eras, vaccines have a weird habit of triggering or worsening the very illnesses they are supposed to be preventing.

Strange.

This occurrence isn’t fringe. It’s documented, replicated, and historically well known.

But millions of people—doctors, teachers, parents, friends—pretend it isn’t.

And even when they do offer a protective effect for some disease, they can leave your immune system weakened and vulnerable to other infections that can end up killing you. Just look at what happened in Guinea-Bissau.

You've heard of Flock cameras, but have you heard of NEMA nodes? Those unassuming little plugs on virtually every streetlight in America, silently turning your city's lighting grid into an always-on, AI-powered surveillance mesh that knows exactly where you sleep, drive, and walk... every single night.

What started as 'smart energy saving' has morphed into the backbone of a nationwide tracking system — powering cameras, sensors, and data fusion that governments and tech giants can tap into with a few clicks. No warrants needed when the infrastructure is already watching.

Tonight, @zeeemedia pulls back the socket on NEMA nodes: how they fit into the bigger surveillance grid, and why your local streetlight might know more about you than your own phone. 🧵

Flock cameras became a household name for a reason. The license plate reader network has been tied to documented cases of police officers misusing it to stalk women, and researchers have demonstrated how easily the systems can be hacked and abused, with reports suggesting predators have exploited that weakness.

But while public attention stayed on the cameras, a quieter buildout was happening overhead. Modern LED streetlights across America are being fitted with NEMA control nodes, small modules mounted on top of the fixture. In their simplest form, these are just photocells that turn the light on at dusk and off at dawn. But the newer generation are smart lighting controllers that let a municipality or utility monitor the light, dim it remotely, detect failures, and manage energy use.

The concern being raised is what else they can carry. Modern nodes can include wireless communication, and while the node itself generally does not contain a camera, many are being installed with the ability to add camera capabilities later. The infrastructure goes in first. The sensors come after.

The scale is already significant. In Washington D.C. alone, roughly 75,000 streetlights have reportedly been upgraded with advanced Internet of Things capable nodes. Much of this buildout accelerated during the COVID lockdowns, when infrastructure went up across cities while residents were told to stay home, and most of it went unnoticed.

A registered nurse with 30 years of experience treating chronic pain says she saw “TEN TIMES” the positive effects after combining DMSO with castor oil for her peripheral neuropathy.

Castor oil already has anti-inflammatory properties.

But adding DMSO is where she says it “got interesting.”

That’s because DMSO “isn’t just a treatment, it’s a carrier,” Danielle Minetti explained.

“It can pull medications and nutrients right through the skin barrier deep into the body.”

When Danielle combined it with castor oil, she says the results increased “ten times.”

DMSO acted as the delivery system, carrying the castor oil deeper into the areas where she needed relief most.

But DMSO’s potential extends far beyond peripheral neuropathy.

And if you’re one of the 5 million Americans living with carpal tunnel syndrome, this is where the DMSO story gets really interesting.

Because it turns out carpal tunnel may not be caused by overuse after all. 🧵

Somewhere between the wrist pain that shows up after years of typing and the keyboard sitting under your fingers right now, there’s a design decision nobody remembers making.

It wasn’t an accident. It was a deliberate engineering choice made to solve a mechanical problem.

But that problem that stopped mattering almost a century ago. And the fix that’s still shaping our hands today has far outlived it.

Early typewriters had a real problem: type two adjacent keys too quickly and the mechanism would jam.

The fix was mechanical, not electronic. Spread the commonly paired letters as far apart as possible so fingers physically couldn’t hit them fast enough to jam the machine.

That layout is the same one you’re using right now.

That was over a century ago.

Mechanical jamming stopped being a problem once electric typewriters showed up. Computers can’t jam at all.

But the keyboard never changed.

YouTuber Dan Schaeffer says he “completely cleared” his sinuses by combining DMSO, purified water, and colloidal silver into a nasal spray.

One squirt up each nose twice a day, and the results were “amazing.”

“No pressure, no nothing.”

Dan’s experience is not an isolated one.

In 1992, Russian researchers found that treating children with sinusitis using a 10% DMSO solution followed by local oxygenation provided complete relief in 49 of 52 cases.

DMSO is a cheap substance you can typically find online for under $30.

Turns out it can do much more for your respiratory system than just clear your sinuses. 🧵

Most people think respiratory infections are something you just have to “ride out.”

You get congested. Your throat hurts. Your sinuses clog. Maybe it turns into a cough, maybe it doesn’t. Maybe it moves into your chest, maybe it doesn’t.

So you take a decongestant, stock up on tissues, drink fluids, wait a few days, and hope it passes.

But that entire model skips one of the most important parts of the story:

Where many respiratory infections actually begin.

Respiratory viruses don’t typically start as deep lung infections.

They often begin in the upper airway—the nose, sinuses, throat, and nasopharynx.

That matters because the early stage of the illness may be happening in areas that are much easier to reach than the lungs.

In other words, by the time people are talking about bronchitis, pneumonia, oxygen levels, and hospital care, they may have already missed the window of opportunity.

Are flavor enhancers used by nearly every major food brand being developed with cells derived from an aborted baby?

Tonight’s special report presents shocking evidence tracing the dark history of these additives and the powerful companies operating behind the label.

Most people have never heard of HEK293 cells. And two reassuring words—“natural flavors”—are concealing a disturbing story the food industry hoped you would never uncover. 🧵

HEK293 is a human cell line originally derived in the early 1970s from kidney tissue taken from a single fetus, believed to have come from an aborted pregnancy.

The cells are used as laboratory tools, not food ingredients.

Researchers can engineer them to express human taste receptors. When a chemical compound activates one of those receptors, the cells produce a measurable signal showing whether a person may perceive it as sweet, bitter, salty, or cooling.

That allows laboratories to screen thousands of potential flavor compounds without putting each one through a human tasting panel.

Senomyx, a biotechnology company that developed flavor enhancers and taste modulators, described this process in its patents. The patents shown in the report identify HEK293 as a preferred cell line for assays designed to find compounds that produce or modify sweet taste.

The cells remain in the laboratory.

“The cells themselves were not added to food products,” Maria explained. Senomyx maintained that no fetal cells or tissue entered finished consumer products.

That distinction answers what a food physically contains.

It does not settle whether the process used to develop it is ethically acceptable.

Supporters argue that HEK293 has been reproduced in laboratories for decades and is now far removed from the original abortion. They point to its value in medical and scientific research, especially when no suitable alternative exists.

@zeeemedia rejects that calculation.

“It doesn’t matter how many years it’s been since that point, that child was still murdered.”

For people who share that conviction, the question is not simply whether fetal material remains in a soda, cereal, vaccine, or medication.

It is whether that product was created using knowledge obtained through a cell line they believe should never have existed.

The dispute does not end with the final ingredient list.

It begins inside the research process—and the next problem is where that process disappears.

Health insurance in America is broken.

Over 200,000 Americans go bankrupt because of medical bills every year—and many of them already had insurance. On average, 20% of claims are denied, leaving families stuck paying massive out-of-pocket costs after spending thousands on premiums.

But there’s an alternative.

CrowdHealth is a community-powered model that has helped members fund over 40,000 medical bills at a fraction of the cost of traditional insurance.

So far, 30,000+ members have been helped, saving an estimated $73 million in medical costs.

CrowdHealth isn’t insurance. It’s a way to step outside the broken system and take control of your healthcare.

Joe Rogan fell into stunned silence as Dr. Casey Means rattled off one disturbing health stat after another.

“We are getting destroyed, and it’s very recent, and it’s accelerating,” she warned.

• “74% of Americans are overweight or obese.”

• “Young adult cancers are going up 79% in the last 10 years.”

• “25% of men now under 40 have erectile dysfunction.”

• “50%, now, of American adults have type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. These were diseases where there was 1% of Americans in 1950 had type 2 diabetes. Now it’s 50% of Americans have prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.”

• “Alzheimer’s, dementia are going through the roof.”

• “Young adult dementias have increased, like, three times since 2012. So early onset dementias.”

• “One in two Americans are expected to have cancer in their lifetime now, one in two.”

• “One in [31] children has autism now, in the United States. That was one in 150 in the year 2000.”

• “In California, where I live, [Autism rates are] one in 22. One in 22 with a lifetime neurodevelopmental disorder.”

• “Infertility going up 1% per year.”

• “77% of young Americans can’t serve in the military because of obesity or drug abuse.”

• “Autoimmune diseases. Some studies are saying they’re going up 13% per year.”

• “Heart disease, which is almost totally preventable, is the leading cause of death in the United States, killing around 800,000 people per year.”

“It’s basically like all of us are a little bit dead while we’re alive,” Dr. Means said.

These aren’t unrelated crises. They share the same biological pattern — a body stuck in survival mode.

And once you understand what’s keeping your body there, the path to real healing finally makes sense. 🧵

What if what triggers chronic disease isn’t actually a malfunction?

Cells aren’t dead.

Or mutated.

Or broken beyond repair.
They’re just shut down.
What if our cells do that because they’re just trying to survive?

That single shift in perspective changes everything.

And it explains far more than modern medicine will ever admit.

It could even mean that modern medicine is going about healing all wrong.

When cells are exposed to overwhelming stress—things like toxins, infection, trauma, and immune overactivation—they do something deeply intelligent.

They conserve energy.

They reduce output.

They enter a low-function survival mode.
In the short term, this saves you.
But if your cells get stuck here, it becomes disease.

Because survival mode is not the same thing as health.
