Exclusive: I sat down with @FLSurgeonGen to discuss his letter to the FDA about the risks of DNA fragments in Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines.

Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo asks FDA for data on risks of DNA contaminants in COVID-19 vaccines

alachuachronicle.com/exclusive-inte… On December 6, Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo sent a letter to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), asking questions about a recent preprint documenting the detection of billions of DNA fragments per dose in the approved Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 mRNA vaccines

After our questions led to the removal of anti-police banners on a UF bldg, rocks were thrown through the windows, and the artists wrote "F*** off Fascists" on plywood beside a disclaimer from the university that said it was "artists' speech"

alachuachronicle.com/largely-a-typo… After we asked questions earlier this month, the banners, which also said, "Next step, we burn it down," were removed

1/ On Thursday, the Florida Joint Legislative Auditing Committee told the City of Gainesville that they need to make BIG changes to their budget or face removal from office.

The city commission has scheduled an emergency meeting for tomorrow.

alachuachronicle.com/bipartisan-leg… 2/ In preparation for that meeting, we have published 3 opinion pieces from people who have unsuccessfully tried to give the city commission advice over the past decade or so.

The first is from the former General Manager of the City's municipal utility

An "insider" report details the many ways in which DEI is embedded into every department at the University of Florida
alachuachronicle.com/insider-report… A report on DEI and CRT initiatives at the University of Florida provided to Alachua Chronicle by a UF “insider” describes a number of programs and positions, many of which were not reported by the university in response to a request from the governor

UF Chemistry DEI puts out "Black Friday" newsletters on Fridays during Black History Month. "Black History Month is a time to to both honor those Black scientists and role models that paved the way for today’s individuals and as a time to examine how we can bring anti-racism and racial justice to our communities."

.@GovRonDeSantis announces university course requirements in "actual history, actual philosophy that has shaped Western civilization." DeSantis: "We will eliminate all DEI and CRT bureaucracies" in universities. "Those bureaucracies are not representative of what the people of this state want."

This is a step forward but it's not Constitutional Carry.

Among many other limitations, it forces parents to go unprotected for the rest of their errands if they go through a school pickup line while they're out (unless they stop somewhere else to encase the gun).

I have a recurring evening meeting on school property; I drive alone and then walk alone across the parking lot and deserted school. My options are to leave my gun at home or stop somewhere along the way (after dark) to encase my gun. In any case, I can't have it while walking.

1/ .@LenCabrera extracts some interesting results from the state university system's first "Intellectual Freedom and Viewpoint Diversity" survey but criticizes the methodology
alachuachronicle.com/board-of-gover… 2/ In general, students agreed that their campus and classes provide “an environment for free expression of ideas, opinions, and beliefs,” with UF having a slightly smaller proportion of students who agreed with those statements and more students who disagreed.

Still waiting for @GovRonDeSantis presser, but the podium sign says "Election Integrity," and they're handing out signs that say "MY VOTE COUNTS" @GovRonDeSantis .@GovRonDeSantis says the state has charged and is in the process of arresting 20 individuals across the state for voter fraud. Majority in Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade Counties.

If you live in Florida and your kids haven't started school yet, tell them to be ready to start a recording on their phone if the teacher starts the "pronoun discussion." I'm already hearing that teachers are illegally asking if they can use a student's pronouns with parents.

Two days, two announcements of incorrectly-printed ballots in Alachua County

1/ On this Independence Day, I encourage you to think about how you can help restore America, and this essay from the bad cat is a great place to start.

"if we are to sustain this american dream, we can and must become once more worthy of it."

boriquagato.substack.com/p/the-characte… 2/ "perhaps most important in this grand enterprise is the foundation in basic notions of justice of the duty to replace any government as becomes inimical to such goals with one better suited to their provision.

this function is both reserved for and dependent upon the people."

Unvaxed Disney cast members are suing Disney for discrimination.

live.childrenshealthdefense.org/cast-for-truth… Florida cast members have been able to get religious exemptions approved because of Florida's law that requires the approval of those exemptions. California cast members have had few religious exemptions approved.

Are other districts in Florida doing this? It seems like a violation of students' privacy (especially girls!) that will not improve safety at all. Anyone who is determined to bring a weapon will just conceal it on their person.

The school district's Facebook announcement said they were following recommendations from law enforcement, but the quotes from law enforcement imply that the policy was the school district's idea.

1/ 3 weeks are left in the FL legislative session. Let's look at which COVID bills are moving and which are not:

S7014 was one of the first 11 bills passed and extends COVID liability protections for hospitals legiscan.com/FL/bill/S7014/… 2/S7014 extends protections from liability for "diagnosis or treatment of, or failure to diagnose or treat, a person for COVID-19" and provides an affirmative defense if they show "Substantial compliance with government-issued health standards specifically relating to COVID-19"

1/ FDA is circumventing a doctor's judgment on the likely variant in a specific patient by closing off monoclonal antibody use in "geographic regions where exposure is likely to have been caused by a non-susceptible SARS-CoV-2 variant." 2/ The FDA press release regarding bamlanivimab and etesevimab and REGEN-COV says "to limit their use to only when the patient is likely to have been infected with or exposed to a variant that is susceptible to these treatments."
fda.gov/news-events/pr…

Change my mind: Every single thing they've done from day one - see list below and feel free to add to it - was for the purpose of driving vaccine adoption. Lockdowns, school closures, business closures, church closures, case/hosp/death definitions, mass testing, dashboards, masks, travel restrictions, vax mandates, suppressing treatments and debate -

1/ I want to state very clearly that it is not true that only 6% of "COVID deaths" were caused by COVID. Hundreds of thousands of people died on ventilators after COVID turned to ARDS.

BUT WE HAVE OVER-COUNTED.

Read here how death certs are filled out: alachuachronicle.com/death-certific… 2/ Nothing in this article says that doctors are filling out death certs improperly (except the ones that only say "COVID-19"). But under the direction of the CDC, bureaucrats are combing death certs for any mention of COVID and then counting it as a COVID death.

1/ Are we back to pre-2020 science on community masking, or are we still pretending we're more enlightened now?

WHO: "Using a mask incorrectly however, may actually increase the risk of transmission, rather than reduce it."

who.int/csr/resources/… 2/ More from the same document: "If masks are worn, proper use and disposal is essential to ensure they are potentially effective and to avoid any increase in risk of transmission associated with the incorrect use of masks."

1/ Think the kids are fine? These are from a "COVID Diary" book with submissions from a single classroom in Florida in the 2020-21 school year. 2/

1/ I can't let this Palm Beach Post editorial go without some comments. It's simply an attempt to vilify @GovRonDeSantis (for a law duly passed by the legislature) without presenting any evidence that anybody is harmed in any way.

gainesville.com/story/opinion/… 2/ Everybody has the ability to, you know, MAIL IN their mail-in ballots. Or drop them off at a drop box 12 hours a day or vote in 2 weeks of early voting before election day. Removing the ability to drop off stacks of other people's ballots does not suppress the ability to vote.
