America last!

March 5, 2023 by Guest Post

by Patti Franklin, Hamilton

The East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment may be the worst ecological disaster in U.S. history. Experts are calling it “our Chernobyl.” There is a mushroom cloud of deadly chemicals floating over the farm belt. Animals are dying. Fish are dead. People are sick. And it just happens to have poisoned hundreds of thousands of acres of prime Midwest farmland. Where is Biden? He is in Ukraine giving away another $500 million of your money.

The supply chain is crippled. Highways, ports and infrastructure are crumbling. Blue states are banning trucks from the roads. Grocery prices are skyrocketing. Egg farms are burning to the ground. Over 100 food plants have burned to the ground in the past year. Where is Biden? 

The same exact thing that’s happening to food and farmland is happening to energy. Under former Trump we had energy independence and cheap, plentiful energy. Under Biden we have soaring gas and electricity prices, energy shortages and depletion of our national fuel reserve. In the middle of this, our government is desperate to ban gas stoves.

Our border is wide open, with millions of migrants pouring through. I believe all of them will require cradle-to-grave welfare and many of them are criminals. How many are terrorists? And through that border comes drugs. Fentanyl alone kills over 100,000 Americans per year and it’s pouring into and killing Montanans. It sure seems like someone wants Americans dead. Where is Biden? His administration facilitated this crisis. 

Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates are causing “sudden death” and cardiac arrest by the thousands per day. Death rates are the highest in history. More children and young athletes are dropping dead suddenly than ever before in our lifetimes. Yet blue states are now mandating COVID-19 vaccines for your children to attend school. And our federal government is compiling a list of the unvaccinated. Meanwhile, Biden is getting ready to hand over our health care decisions to the WHO.

There is no question that Biden believes in an America last agenda.

    Patti Franklin;

    “There is no uptick in sudden cardiac arrest or death in athletes due to COVID-19 or from COVID vaccinations. This is total misinformation,”

    You didn’t actually read the study, did you? It says nothing whatsoever about “thousand deaths per day”. It’s simply does not. You are a liar. What it says is the following;

    “Sixty-nine studies, including 43 case reports and 26 case series, were included. Myocarditis/myopericarditis and pericarditis were the most common adverse events among the 243 reported cardiac complications, post mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. Males with a median age of 21 years had the highest frequency of myocarditis. Almost three quarters (74.4%) of cases with myocarditis had received the BNT162b2 vaccine and 87.7% had received the second dose of the vaccine. Chest pain (96.1%) and fever (38.2%) were the most common presentations.”

    Read it again. A total of 243 cases, period. Of those almost 100% were simply cases of chest pain. There’s no mention of death. You, are a liar.

        Please point to the exact part of the study that supports her following claim;

        “COVID-19 vaccine mandates are causing “sudden death” and cardiac arrest by the thousands per day..”

        Take all of the time that you need.

    Well said Patti – and so true. Gomez might want to look at your op-ed and read it carefully.

      I saw it, but it was too ridiculous to respond to. A classic Gish Gallop of unsupported, unsourced claims.

      “The Gish gallop is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm their opponent by providing an excessive number of arguments with no regard for the accuracy or strength of those arguments.”

        You responded to something that was too ridiculous to respond to? Hmmmm…. Also, you are incapable of disputing any of my claims. Hmmm…. Sounds like you are either too ignorant of what is REALLY taking place in our country or, you are trapped in the “normalcy bias”. Let’s hope you don’t have as much trouble looking up that term up as you did the facts of my opinion piece.

          OK, you want to do this? Lets take one.

          “Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates are causing “sudden death” and cardiac arrest by the thousands per day. ”

          Prove it. Please post a link to a published, peer reviewed study to support your claim.

          Thanks in advance.
