Interesting: different immune responses to Novavax & mRNA COVID vaccines. TLDR: NVX has higher proportion of the "best" IgGs (IgG3), while mRNA have higher of the "not always good" IgG4. IMO more importantly, NVX has stronger Fc-effector functions journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-…
Fc-effector functions have been hypothesized to be behind much of the efficacy w/ NVX. Ppl with essentially undetectable IgG still had >60% efficacy vs infection in the original trials. nature.com/articles/s4146…
Side note, I think Dr. Lin is right on this one as well:
I think no process of cultural change is “peaceful”, but we can distinguish between say the Christian Residential School System and the Roman conversion to Christianity just as we can distinguish between pre-Modern Arabization in the Middle East and the 1974 occupation of Cyprus
Joint investigation by Direkt36, Der Spiegel, Der Standard, and De Tijd uncovered that Orbán’s government built and ran a secret spy network in Brussels, using Hungary’s Information Office (IH) to infiltrate EU institutions.

2012–2018: Hungarian intelligence entrenched itself in the EU’s core.
Hungarian agents were embedded at the country’s EU Permanent Representation in Brussels, officially registered as diplomats dealing with economic or financial affairs. In reality, they were IH officers, sent to collect classified or politically sensitive information from inside the EU.

“V.” — the charming recruiter turned exposed spy.
The central figure, known as V., was described by EU insiders as sociable, intelligent, and easy to talk to. Over several years he held informal meetings with Hungarian officials working at the European Commission, probing them for internal insights and office gossip. At first he played the friendly networker, but later tried to formalize recruitment, asking one Commission employee to sign a declaration making them a “secret collaborator” of the IH. When money failed, he offered donations to a charity the target supported. The employee refused and later shared the experience with journalists.
Transvestites are men with a sexual pathology that escalates towards public predation.
Transgenderism is an attempt to rebrand their behavior by including women and children under a more "inclusive" term, thereby providing cover for male fetishes that overlap with pedophilia.

Saving Israel for last.
This is the front cover of the Economist Magazine from 2012. LOOK CLOSELY. Take your time.
Yes, those are paragliders shooting.
Hamas headband = Netanyahu headband = NWO
Oct 7 was planned by the NWO since 2012.
It was a land-grab, and a genocide.
These precious children are so happy they have survived the genocide!
Time to wake up. Of course, strategically, President Trump could not say any of this. But we can.

It is time for everyone to face the truth that Israel was hijacked by the NWO. The people who live in Gaza were forced into the world's largest open-air prison.
May the 10/10 Middle East Peace Deal finally end their misery and 77-year nightmare.

Many still don't know the truth.
It's time to face the truth that we have all been horribly misled.

فيفرج عليه قبل أن يصبح؛ وهذا من عظيم لطف الله بالعباد.

One Tuesday night, as my wife and I sat down for dinner, a sheriff’s deputy knocked on the door to serve me a subpoena from OpenAI.
I held back on talking about it because I didn't want to distract from SB 53, but Newsom just signed the bill so... here's what happened:
🧵
You might recall a story in the SF Standard that talked about OpenAI retaliating against critics. Among other things, OpenAI asked for all my private communications on SB 53 - a bill that creates new transparency rules and whistleblower protections at large AI companies.

Another sign of growing problems in the Russian economy. Next year, Russia will cut spending on the production and repair of aircraft by one and a half times — from 139.6 billion to 85.7 billion rubles. This was reported by The Moscow Times. “The Russian government plans 1/9
to reduce funding for the federal project ‘Production of Aircraft and Helicopters’ by 1.6 times in 2026 - from 139.6 billion to 85.7 billion rubles,” the report says. According to the draft of Russia’s new budget for 2026–2028, spending will also decrease in 2027 compared to 2/9
previously planned figures - from 109.7 billion to 86.9 billion rubles (a 21% drop). Funding is expected to slightly increase only in 2028 - to 89.3 billion rubles. The publication notes that the most significant cuts will affect state support for Russian airlines renewing 3/9
In light of the U.S. government’s insane decision to let Qatar open a military base on American soil, I’m re-upping my viral article from last week on the massive scope of Qatari influence in the U.S. — and its FARA activity in D.C. especially.
Let’s break down some key facts 🧵
Qatar is the single largest foreign funder of . universities at $6.3 billion. The D.C.-based Georgetown has received $1 billion since 2005.
Qatar's total U.S. footprint is $93.7B, including $30B in business investments, $29B in weapons purchases, $20B in energy projects, $8B for Al Udeid Air Base, and $6.3B in higher education.
Russians seized Donetsk doctor Ihor Kirianenko in 2018. He was 57.
They tied him to a table like a cross, wired his feet and fingers, and electrocuted him until he screamed. Then they tore out his teeth with pliers and broke his ribs and fingers, writes Hromadske. 1/
When he screamed, the guards joked: “Don’t shout, there’s a kindergarten upstairs.”
After torture they took him home, smashed his antique shop, searched for “bugs,” and found nothing. Then they arrested his wife too. 2/
On New Year’s Eve they got drunk. “They knocked out all my teeth. Pulled my fangs with pliers. I heard a crunch and blacked out,” Ihor said.
When he woke, they were kicking him, breaking ribs and fingers. 3/
🚨🚨🚨 WOMAN SPEAKS OUT ABOUT SEXUAL ASSAULT BY TRANS-IDENTIFIED MALE OFFENDER IN SA WOMEN’S PRISON
Every single politician and every single so-called human rights commissioner in Australia must read this story.
If by the end they are not convinced that men - no matter how they identify - do not belong in women's prisons, then there is no convincing them and they should not be in any position of leadership.
It is one of the most horrific things I have ever read and that is despite already having heard some of it first-hand from Katie who reached out to @WomensForumAust after seeing our efforts to remove the male paedophile who is currently being housed in a Victorian women's prison.
Inside a South Australian prison, Katie was failed in every way imaginable, from being housed with a notoriously violent trans-identified male offender, to being sexually assaulted by him, to being ignored by prison authorities after the assault.
After seeing the Victorian story, Katie decided to speak out so that our leaders act to ensure what happened to her never happens to another woman.
The question is, will they now act to ban male offenders from women's prisons? Or how many more women must be assaulted before they do? And how many more have already been assaulted that have not had the chance to share their story?
Silence and inaction in the face of such violations is not neutrality - it is complicity.
We also know that stories like these are just the tip of the iceberg and that women and girls everywhere are at risk when our laws and policies allow men to be treated as women. This absurd, unjust, dangerous state of affairs cannot be allowed to persist any longer.
COVID didn’t end - it changed the baseline of how often people fall ill, miss work, and drop out of the labor force. A new JAMA study shows the US now lives in a permanent flu-season mode, all year round🧵
COVID-19 has created a new year-round baseline of illness - its effects persist even without major waves or restrictions, pointing to chronic impacts from ongoing infection or post-infectious conditions, including long COVID.
This new health environment means lower productivity and a greater need for worker protections such as paid sick leave, improved ventilation, and infection prevention at workplaces.
An anthropological observation about Indian asceticism came from Janice Stargardt at the 7th Gonda Lecture (1999) - Upanishadic ethos, early Buddhism and Jainism were all inherently driven by the superior yields of rice farming.
Rice has been an extraordinary crop since the Bronze Age. On every yield metric, rice outperforms the other great staple in Eurasia - wheat. The Chinese have long noted that population expansions in the Eastern sphere have been accompanied by rice expansions.
Rice farming brought a "calorific surplus" to the societies that made it their central pillar.
"I’ve been really moved by your words," Scott Jensen said, his voice warbling as he fought back tears, video of the meeting shows.
"The lived experiences, the hurt … so on behalf of myself I do apologize."
These are the words of a city official in Vancouver, Canada who mawkishly apologized for hosting an innocent "Harry Potter" event that offended transgenders (because J.K. Rowling is vocally opposed to trans ideology).
“This will not happen again,” promised fellow city official Angela Haer.
Fellow Commissioner also promised, “This will not happen again.”
Another commissioner, Tom Digby, later posted on X that the board “did the right thing” by apologizing.
“Shared some tears. Disavowed JKR. Will undertake concrete actions to rebuild trust,” he wrote.
All of this groveling and tears while federal officials in Canada are busy turning the country into a recreation of the Indian Subcontinent in the north (and the Chinese are busy steadily buying up all the real estate in Vancouver).
A people this stupid will not be long for this world.
