Every country has had a “voice of reason” throughout the pandemic. For the island nation of New Zealand, that voice belongs to Paul Brennan.

From the Reality Check website:

“Paul Brennan has lived and breathed media for more than four decades.

He has worked in all aspects of the industry, out front on the microphone in music, talk-back, talk and news radio, audio/video engineering and production, live shows and events, creative and operations management and social media.

Paul has also had a front row seat to the evolution of mainstream media from the traditional values of fair and balanced coverage to the current narrative driven information war that is today’s media.

Over his career Paul has been at the sharp end of communicating some of the biggest stories and events particularly during his nearly 15 year stretch as one of Radio New Zealand’s key national program presenters.

Following a recent stint at the National Business Review and since April 2022 at The Platform, he is about to focus all that knowledge and experience on what he considers is his most important role thus far.

Paul has three adult children and his “serious hobby” is Bring Our Birds Home – a charitable trust that is bringing home no longer active iconic aircraft to New Zealand.

Paul is well informed and curious, he has questions he wants answered regardless of who he is asking. His ethos is to listen, allow interviewees to speak without unreasonable interruption, to provide the space for answers so that listeners and viewers can hear the information, make up their own minds and decide for themselves what it means.”

Please sit back and listen to this wide ranging audio only update with Dr. McCullough and Paul Brennan in late November, 2023. We cover new data on mRNA cardiotoxicity, the New Zealand recent change of government, much needed overhaul of public health agencies, and the path forward with McCullough Protocol Base Spike Detoxification for so many Kiwis who were forced to take the jab.

I’ve long admired Steve Kirsch’s dogged determination to discover and tell the truth about the infernal COVID-19 shots. For almost two years, the MIT graduate and benefactor has sought an audience in the Kirsch Auditorium, whose construction he funded. In what may prove the be the greatest single act of COVID-19 Vaccine Orthodoxy in all of academia, MIT’s administrators have refused to allow him to present his heterodox views in the forum that bears his name.

I spent the afternoon combing scientific and intellectual history for an analogue to MIT’s fantastically absurd treatment of its distinguished and generous alumnus. Alas, I cannot find any other incident that even comes close in its mind-bogglingly stupid suppression of free intellectual discourse.

A recently-formed associated called MIT Students for Open Inquiry finally succeeded in getting Steve through through the institute’s apparatchiks and censors to give a talk about the harm that has been inflicted on humanity by the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.

Consider the irony that a campus association calls itself “Students for Open Inquiry.” In my student days, this name would have sounded as strange as “Auto Mechanics for Repairing Cars” or “Pilots for Flying Aircraft” or “Golfers For Playing Golf.”

Now it seems that “Open Inquiry” on a college campus is daring and controversial. I think it’s high time that the reasonable adults in this country start calling college administrators what they are—namely, a Parcel of Doctrinaire Dummies.

For Steve Kirsch, giving his talk at MIT amounted to entering the mRNA Lion’s Den, because certain faculty members of that once august institution have had a close relationship with Moderna, whose headquarters are located just down the street from the Institute’s campus.

James Howard Kunstler—a writer of great wit and discernment—wrote an excellent report on the event. As he noted:

Prior to the November 30 talk, Mr. Kirsch sought to share his data with eminent MIT professor Robert Langer, winner of countless awards for advances in the biotechnological sciences. Dr. Langer runs a research program that his MIT webpage describes as follows:

The group’s work is at the interface of biotechnology and materials science. A major focus is the study and development of polymers to deliver drugs, particularly genetically engineered proteins, continuously at controlled rates and for prolonged periods of time.”

Sounds like Dr. Langer would be intimately acquainted with the mechanisms of the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines, especially the development of lipid nanoparticles that facilitate the delivery of the mRNA message into their targeted cells. Dr. Langer declined to see the data or to meet with Mr. Kirsch. At the beginning of his talk, Mr. Kirsch offered some speculation as to why Dr. Langer might demur to see the data or meet with him. Turns out it is because Dr. Langer sits on the Moderna board of directors. If Dr. Langer were exposed to “record level” data in a structured format that indicated the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine was killing a lot of people, Dr. Langer would be required legally to insist that the company take it off the market. Now you see how the venal mendacity of Big Pharma intersects with the perfidy of Academia, and at the highest levels. Dr. Langer has been called out, and publicly disgraced by Mr. Kirsch. Will Dr. Langer sue Mr. Kirsch for defamation? I doubt it. It is a fact that Dr. Langer is on the Moderna Board, and his obligations to the public are clear vis-à-vis Moderna’s flagship product. It will be interesting to see how MIT and Dr. Langer handle this quandary.

[The] morning news (Friday, Dec 1) contains nothing about Steve Kirsch’s landmark talk at MIT, which essentially laid out evidence of a crime against humanity. One feature of the assembled data is that it can take a long time for the vaccines to kill people — six months being only an average. CDC director Mandy Cohen is still pushing the Covid-19 vaccines, as did her predecessor Rochelle Walensky, who resigned just this past June, so expect a continued incidence of excess and early deaths. Did both of them somehow miss the massive accumulating data and news reports about the danger of mRNA vaccines? Could they be that dumb? Or did they knowingly lie to the public, pushing vaccines that are obviously unsafe? At some point, they may have to answer these questions.

Bravo Steve, for giving this historic talk!

Fellow Substack author Dr. Kevin Stillwagon just reported a close shave with catastrophe on American Airlines flight 755 from Paris to Philadelphia on November 29, 2023. As Dr. Stillwagon described the situation:

The First Officer who was the flying pilot on American Airlines flight 755 from Paris to Philadelphia on November 29^th, had a seizure that stiffened his legs and back, jamming his feet under the rudder pedals on short final approach. The captain immediately took over flying duties and there was no loss of aircraft control. The relief pilot who was required to be on the flight deck during landing was able to remove the unconscious pilot from the seat with the help of the purser. The relief pilot occupied the seat for a normal landing and taxi to the gate.

Dr. Stillwagon substantiated his report with an audio recording of the captain speaking with Air Traffic Control about the medical emergency, which you can listen to on his post.

As reported by fellow Substack author, Dr. William Makis, this incident was the fourth pilot incapacitation in two weeks.

Nov.26, 2023 – Ryanair Flight FR-3472 (LTN-RZE) from London Luton, UK to Rzeszow (Poland) on Nov.26, 2023, one of the pilots became incapacitated, plane diverted to Krakow and landed safely

Nov.20, 2023 – Air Transat Flight TS-186 (YYZ-PUJ) from Toronto, Canada to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic – pilot became incapacitated and was replaced by a pilot passenger

Nov.16, 2023 – Air India Pilot Death – 37 year old Air India Pilot Captain Himanil Kumar had cardiac arrest at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport during training.

In my effort to understand what is going on with such pilot incapacitations, I spoke with Australian veteran pilot Shane Murdock, who recently published a fascinating paper titled: Impending Disaster in the Global Aviation Industry, which I highly recommend reading.

Captain Murdock also supplied with me with a recent whistleblower report about COVID-19 vaccine adverse events in New Zealand. The whistleblower’s story is so shocking—and the scale of the crime he claims has been perpetrated so huge—that I feel obliged to make sure his assertions can be independently validated before I share them. Stay tuned for a later post on this rapidly developing story.

For now, please watch my interview with Shane Murdock and share it with your friends.

A lot can change in two years. Just before Christmas 2021, Dr. McCullough came over to my house to spend the day discussing the events set forth in our book, The Courage to Face COVID-19: Preventing Hospitalization and Death While Battling the Bio-Pharmaceutical Complex. He arrived in characteristically good spirits, even though he’d just been hit with the most outrageous attack. That morning, Medscape—a popular medical news agency—published a report titled “Physicians of the Year: Best and Worst.” An e-mail blast of the report went out to doctors all over the country. The e- mail’s subject was, “Worst Physicians of 2021: Who disgraced the profession? See who made the list and how many of them you know?”

By itself the subject was foul, and under normal circumstances McCullough wouldn’t have opened the e-mail. However, as it arrived on the heels of his Joe Rogan interview, which had sparked a flurry of negative communiques about him on the internet, it couldn’t be ignored.

He went through the report’s slide show of the “Worst of 2021.” The first 8 were a rogues’ gallery of doctors convicted of performing fraudulent, unnecessary surgery, mass murder, making false diagnoses while under the influence of drugs, sexual harassment, and assault. Peter clicked on slide number 9 and saw a photo of himself under the headline, “Baylor Gets Restraining Order Against Covid Vaccine Skeptic Doc.” The report explained that “Baylor was the first institution to cut ties with McCullough, who promoted the use of unproven therapies for COVID-19 and questioned the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines.”

Peter laughed this off with his usual Stoicism, but I could tell he’d found this repugnant attack to be painful.

“Nobody with any common sense or decency believes this,” I said, trying to cheer him up. “Medscape is clearly a gutter publication.” Already then, in December 2021, I was confident Peter would ultimately be vindicated. I am gratified to see that this is happening far faster than I predicted it would.

Yesterday the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP) in New York City held its annual awards ceremony and gave Peter its Top Internist and Cardiologist of the Year award. Before the ceremony, IAOTP displayed his photograph on the seven-story Nasdaq Tower in Times Square.

I’ve spent forty years studying history, and I am very familiar with how discerning dissidents have been relentlessly persecuted, only later to be vindicated. When the English statesman and poet, John Milton, visited Galileo in the summer of 1633, shortly after Galileo’s trial for heresy, Milton perceived that the astronomer had been unjustly persecuted for simply stating what he’d observed. It was a moving experience that influenced Milton’s famous defense of free speech that he published in a 1644 pamphlet titled Areopagitica. In this speech Milton described censors as “oligarchs” who “bring a famine upon our minds.”

For the last three years, we have contended with a formidable array of oligarchs who have tried to bring a famine upon our minds. As long as a good portion of this nation’s citizenry retains its allegiance to free speech and the free exchange of ideas and observations, the oligarchs will never win.

With each passing day, Richard J. Baron and his fellow inquisitors at the American Board of Internal Medicine Committee—which continues its effort to strip Dr. McCullough of his board certifications—increasingly look like the Inquisitors who punished Galileo with house arrest for the last nine years of his life.

The news that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton suing Pfizer for fraudulent misrepresentation of its COVID-19 vaccine gave me hope that his discovery will explore a probable connection between Pfizer and the ABIM. On the face of it, this suspicion is highly warranted, because the ABIM, Pfizer, and Moderna all share the same powerful PR firm, Weber Shandwick. Indeed, I wouldn’t be surprised if Weber Shandwick was behind the Medscape hit piece in December 2021.

If Dr. Baron has indeed allowed commercial interests to influence the ABIM’s certification and decertification of medical doctors, he should be carefully examined for possibly having civil and perhaps even criminal conflicts of interest.

In the meantime, congratulations to Dr. McCullough for his much deserved award.

The World Health Organization as a layperson explanation of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) which is appropriate as more people are affected with this condition after SARS-CoV-2 infection and the ill-advised COVID-19 vaccines.

“Symptoms typically last a few weeks, with most individuals recovering without long-term, severe neurological complications. The first symptoms of Guillain-Barré syndrome include weakness or tingling sensations. They usually start in the legs and can spread to the arms and face. For some people, these symptoms can lead to paralysis of the legs, arms, or muscles in the face. In approximately one third of people, the chest muscles are affected, making it hard to breathe. The ability to speak and swallow may become affected in severe cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome. These cases are considered life-threatening, and affected individuals should be treated in intensive-care units. Most people recover fully from even the most severe cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome, although some continue to experience weakness. Even in the best of settings, a small number of Guillain-Barré syndrome patients die from complications, which can include paralysis of the muscles that control breathing, blood infection, lung clots, or cardiac arrest.”

Mr. Rod Shears is a 77 year-old former CEO and super fit marathon runner in the UK. He lives about 15 minutes outside of central London. Please listen to the description of what happened to him in 2021 after two AstraZeneca adenoviral COVID-19 shots and then a Pfizer mRNA booster. His syndrome is not classic for GBS because it is a dominant demyelinating motor neuropathy.

This video is important, because Rod is in a wheelchair and obviously devastated with his vaccine injury. He has never heard of McCullough Protocol Base Spike Detoxification. As you will see, he has agreed to try the protocol and check in with Courageous discourse at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months to report on his condition. In the absence of large randomized trials, we must rely on clinical judgement and empirical evidence to understand safety and treatment effect. Let’s hope for the best for Mr. Shears.
