Quote:Nonprofit Watchdog Uncovers $350 Million in Secret Payments to Fauci, Collins, Others at NIH

In my opinion, this is a lot like the Climate Change/Global Warming Scam, it is all about Money and the ones that get the most funding are heard and believed even though they are Bias and Liars.
Paid to following the Agenda of the New World Order for Depopulation.

Quote:An estimated $350 million in undisclosed royalties were paid to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and hundreds of its scientists, including the agency’s recently departed director, Dr. Francis Collins, and Dr. Anthony Fauci, according to a nonprofit government watchdog.


“We estimate that up to $350 million in royalties from third parties were paid to NIH scientists during the fiscal years between 2010 and 2020,” Open the Books CEO Adam Andrzejewski told reporters in a telephone news conference on May 9.


“We draw that conclusion because, in the first five years, there has been $134 million that we have been able to quantify of top-line numbers that flowed from third-party payers, meaning pharmaceutical companies or other payers, to NIH scientists.”


The first five years, from 2010 to 2014, constitute 40 percent of the total, he said.


“We now know that there are 1,675 scientists that received payments during that period, at least one payment. In fiscal year 2014, for instance, $36 million was paid out and that is on average $21,100 per scientist,” Andrzejewski said.


“We also find that during this period, leadership at NIH was involved in receiving third-party payments. For instance, Francis Collins, the immediate past director of NIH, received 14 payments. Dr. Anthony Fauci received 23 payments and his deputy, Clifford Lane, received eight payments.”


Collins resigned as NIH director in December 2021 after 12 years of leading the world’s largest public health agency. Fauci is the longtime head of NIH’s National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), as well as chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden. Lane is the deputy director of NIAID, under Fauci.


The top five NIH employees measured in terms of the number of royalty payments that they received while on the government payroll, according to a fact sheet published by Open the Books, include Robert Gallo, National Cancer Institute, 271 payments; Ira Pastan, National

Cancer Institute, 250 payments; Mikulas Popovic, National Cancer Institute, 191 payments; Flossie Wong-Staal, National Cancer Institute, 190 payments; and Mangalasseril Sarngadharan, National Cancer Institute, 188 payments.

BIG PHARMA IS EVIL…go holistic whenever you can. These people are paying millions to evil scientists

Like Fauci and collins to develop vaccines that kill!!!! Elitists are out to kill and control the masses.

I wanted my late wife to use holistic methods to treat her second bout of cancer. Needless to say her fears pushed her back to the medical establishment for treatment. Although I did manage to convince her on a few non traditional methods. We worked on lowering how much sugar she consumed. I gave her 1000mg of artesium (wormwood extract) had her consume alkaline water to try to bring her body Ph to a more base consistency.
I think it gave her a few more years. However she died in the midst of covid and I am suspicious of the nasal swab testing she endured. The cancer that killed her moved to her brain when it had previously had been stable in her bones. I don't know. I am suspicious though.

about holistic methods
I think one of the best precautions is to learn to handle chi / body energy. Qigong is very helpful for this. Not only does it help focus and relax but also trains the muscles, helps for more body awareness and what works and what not. A promise I can make is 10 min serious Qigong, everyone sleeps very well that day. It is a very relaxing kind of work though. And most can do the basic positions.

Other's may laugh, but I also have faith in stones and care for a fairly large collection, most are round balls that I also use for massaging, but not all. I think there could be a physical property we have not discovered via science, that these stones conduct or utilize. They may act like filters or amplifiers of energies.

Like for example I have several Bergkristall crystals in various shapes and forms. One of the best pain relievers on muscle aches, sticky muscles and even bruises is the round Bergkristall. It get's hot just when it sit's on a bruise. Hotter than the body it seems. It's surprising, I am not the only one feeling it hotter. And so if the "patient" is feeling it warmer, hotter, then it is at least warmer than body temperature of the hands. I cool it / discharge it under flowing water and repeat. It is also good to soften the upper muscle layer to get down with the finger tips into the deeper regions, where the knotted / sticky muscle sits. It is easier to "pop" them and it is less pain full for the one that has them when they snap back.

The untreated, natural grown shape Bergkristall helps against headaches around the temple area too.

I don't know much about holistic treatments. My grandmother was a medicine woman and she died before she could pass her knowledge on to me. My mother was not interested in learning, she just liked walking in the woods with her mother. She says, all the time, that she wishes she had paid more attention when here mother was trying to teach her. She says it is the biggest of her few regrets in life.


I know what it is like though for people to not believe in the basics of nature, and trying to make sense out them, just makes you sound crazier.

I believe in grounding. Now I have just made all those that just thought I was crazy, feel good about me just proving it.

I will tell you to avoid areas of ground were you know the soil is toxic.

It may explain why we were never sick when children, because we almost never wore shoes, unless we were going some place where they were required.

I like to do that on my favorite stone in the forest. I meditate and I also grounding in a way as a side effect, do blessings there. When we are out in the garden at home, we are always barefoot except winter or for work that requires good shoe work. My daughter also naturally wants to go barefoot when possible. Children seem to know that or just dislike socks lol. 

There are a lot of questions I would like to ask my mother too. She was not a medicine woman but very knowledgeable about herbs and nature. She had a 'nose' for things going on in the forest, even when she was never there before like on holidays and walks. But it is possible to learn it with intuition and awareness. Awareness helps a lot, I think we loose that because our daily surrounding is so static with houses. 

When we then go through the forest we forget to be aware and miss out on a lot of things. A bit knowledge and observations paints a whole history about any forest or vegetation even if you never were there before. Just by walking through and being observant. Like for example if the age of trees and type of vegetation changes suddenly with some rotting old tree stumps you know it was probably a storm x years ago. By the new vegetation and other conditions you learn how nutritious the soil is, rough accid / pH levels. In regions with deers you will find marks on trees and can judge by the age and size when it happened, fresh ones tell you more, there are paths everywhere that animals use, to discover with a steady eye. Lot's more about indicator plants and trees for food, or animals. Birds are also good indicators. 

We stood very close to bee hives and if you watch for their reaction and approach slow, you can exactly find out where they start to warn you, that is when the watcher bees that sit around the hive go airborn. Go half a step back and everything is cool, no stings. Bees have a very precise idea about space and distances in one way or another. They communicate directions by dancing in the directions in front of other bees.

I always look out for ravens around the edges of forests and want to befriend one if possible, so when I find something on my way, like a nut, I pick it up to have a gift. You can actually gift things to them and if you do it in a way it is obvious (not throw at it lol) and retreat. Not look at the treat, like dogs they can follow your look and know what you see. Again, science found that out. But to have one around while in the forest would be enough. That is, if I can earn the trust and not be too pushy, because they have good abilities to discern beings by look, not facial but good enough to discern and remember humans for years. There are experiments about that. They have a concept for that and are smart in a lot ways. 

Lately science also catches up to what goes on in and under the forest. This mycelium network is visible sometimes. I once found a fresh earth wound, a chunk broke off and fell into the little lake, opening covered with few leaves, white shine threw and it was not just the roots or the fine hairs on the roots, the fungus was visible in a slight different color. I know hydro setups and how roots look, the fungus always started fruiting out as it is exposed to the elements now. Only possibility to not waste the energy spent into the network I think. Also spores.

Thank you. I do know that and don't dwell on it, I know I will never know. I do focus on all the good times we shared and thankfully there was many.

I am Sorry for your Very Loss and I Do Understand Completely Just How Big Of A Loss Your Life Partner Was To You, I am Sorry.

I also do not know the circumstances of your Love Ones Cancer.
But Please know that the Treatment you mentioned here was Very Wise and probably Did Extend Her Life.
The Cancer returned you said, sounds like it was a hereditary type of Cancer.
Again, I do not know.
But I Wish You a Long Life and I think she is near you always.

I love the woods. I talk to everything out there when I go for a walk. My mother used to laugh at me until we had the incident with Tamar. She was only six months old and ran out into the woods chasing a rabbit. Huskies can run for miles before they realize how far they are from home, and they get lost sometimes. Especially when they are young and unfamiliar with the area.

Tamar was gone for twenty eight hours and I was terrified. I went out into the woods and asked the trees to bring her home. I told the trees that she was young, foolish, lost, and that she needed help getting home.

Well eight hours later she came limping from the woods, looking sheepish and extremely happy to be home. My mother said she didn't think we would ever see her again, and she says she is grateful the trees brought her home.

She too believes in the tree now.   minusculebiggrin

[Image: Scrape-1.jpg]

The photo was taken from the north side of the location, judging by the moss. There are no needles visible so it looks like it's a pure leaf tree forest. The soil should be low in acid amounts, a paradise for rainworms. The tree I look at is an oak, judging by the leaf and bark.  There is white fungus growing on the bark. Tree can not be saved. The stunted leaf grow is clearly visible by the leaf on the ground. There seems to be beech or a beech family type nearby, but this is an oak, pretty sure. Just going by local tree appearances, so maybe I am wrong.

The fungi being white tells me it's probably the parasitic white bracket fungi.  It looks like it did not come off naturally though because of the marks. One could think these are hack marks but I think it's from the fungi leeching on the nutrient layer between the bark and the hardening outer ring. I looked at the branch in front and the way it broke tells me the tree has been infected for years. There is also lichen on the bark but that is not a big deal for the tree. It's the fungi. The tree is standing too wet in general I guess. If it's the bracket fungi, it can also infect beech, so again it strengthens my feeling about being right on oak + beech. 

It's also dying, the tree I therefor think that this was done by a Homo Sapiens either out of interest or in effort to save the tree. It was not an animal, it maybe was you and the tool is in front of you, the bark comes off easy so you went at it, it's also fresh as there are chips on the leaf and right in front of your feet, plus trampled down grass straws and broken old leaf.

How much wrong am I?

I don't know.

I was scouting the area and getting my tree stand ready for the climb. Those marks weren't there the week prior. What's in the photo is what a buck (male deer) does during the rut. I found this tree (and a couple of skinnier ones) like this walking back in.  No deer for me that day though.

It was a pretty healthy tree from what I could see.  I ought'a go back out there and see if it died after all that bark got tore off.  Pretty long way to go just to look at a tree though, so I probably won't.  If I had to guess those marks were only made the day before I came back and found 'em.  Would have walked right past it in the dark to get to where I stowed my stand.

It was a pretty healthy tree from what I could see.  I ought'a go back out there and see if it died after all that bark got tore off.  Pretty long way to go just to look at a tree though, so I probably won't.  If I had to guess those marks were only made the day before I came back and found 'em.  Would have walked right past it in the dark to get to where I stowed my stand.

It could have been a deer though but the fungi is helping a lot for the destruction. I've never seen it that worse in the forest here and we do have deer. I try to pull up some fruit and nut trees and ran into deer trouble already. We call them bock here, the male deer. They rub their antlers, on younger trees too. Damages the bark and then it starts to hear and tree overcomes it with slower growth an tree-life long marks or dies when it's too much. 

Have you noticed the fungi on the tree? That is one of the first external signs of infection and ultimate death. Next time you are there you could check out the abnormal leaf laying there and compare it to another one far away that is healthy.
