Agree as a parent with one special forces son who will be involved in unnecessary wars, not to mention the long list of vaccines he is required to have. I recently checked his vitamin D status and as expected it was low (30 ng/mL) but that level is just fine according to allopathic medicine for our troops.

...or spend time with veterans like me trying to hear my wife, my friends and neighbors because of the combat related hearing damage I sustained in Vietnam and the difficulties of using a cochlear implant. Or veterans who have lost parts of their bodies. Or spend time with me in my ministry working with vets and teaching them that they don't have to suffer with the horrific PTSD nightmares and guilt anymore because Jesus has taken on their guilt and sins and set them free. Yes, John. I have an aversion to endless wars, but it's from fighting in one because it's a hard way to grow up into a man you are forced to fight and kill other men to stay alive.

Thank you for your service sir. I appreciate each and every one of you, thank yous never being enough. I only wish my nephew would have been one that found your ministry before he took his life after serving 3 tours in Iraq. Watching his friends perish around him, and survivors guilt, are two on a long list of traumas. He didn’t receive the help he deserved and desperately needed. Loved ones try so hard and love them just as hard, but they need specialized support. The family as well. My heart continues to break for the veterans left behind when they should be well taken care of by this country they served…..whether we agree with war or not. Not to be treated with disdain, disrespect, and contempt for trying to protect a country they loved and their families. Schools are teaching children to hate America as we speak, patriotism treated like a dirty word. We’re swiftly allowing communism to replace our Republic. I can only feel like our veterans sacrifice and those now gone have died in vain as so many “Americans” are spitting on our flag. Yet, another freedom they died for that enables them to do so…….and they have no understanding of that.

Thank you Joey. Sorry to hear about your nephew. I hear about or read similar stories way too much, but it's the reality of war and the sad error of placing all your hopes for the future in a human government. As Christ-followers, the answer is simple. Our faith and our future is imparted to us by our Creator God. He is loving, kind, and merciful and He is also righteous, holy, and just.

War is Hell! Diplomacy in many cases would prevent war. War is usually started by those who have something to gain from it or in England's case now to take the heat off the failure of the current administration. There are answers to help some of the soldiers who have been harmed, nutrition-wise, but doctors don't have s clue. Drugs wipe out the organs, glands (in the brain, particularly) and cells in the body. The right nutrition and supplements would be valuable.. In addition, prayer is very potent! It saved my brain! Back in the sixties and early 70s, my husband put me into mental hospitals...and I was given a series of ECT treatments. Why.? Because i was not getting sufficient sleep and was not functioning well. I also was dieting to keep my weight down. i had gone into the study of nutrition in 1961, but much of the information was not good. i had to learn by Trial and Error. Well, I learned all about mental hospitals and what they were doing to the human brains with their drugs and ECT. I said a prayer, when I was in the hospital "Please protect my mind!" There are no doctors more ignorant thsn the psychiatrists (and other doctors who give tranquilizers to young and old. They are are wiping out people's minds and their bodies with their very toxic drugs, ECt and lobotomies. Many doctors have no comprehension that their drugs are destroying the glands in people's brains that control their ability to think.My mother's mind was destroyed by the tranquilizers she was given. Psychiatrists and doctors who give toxic drugs are totally responsible for damaging untold millions of young people that they put on tranquilizers, because doctors know nothing about nutrients for the brsin.. My 4-1/2 year old son was put on tranquilizers..and it was a miracle that I was handed books, which told me that SUGAR created Hyperactivity...and Tranquilizers STUNTED the growth of Children's organs. This is what got me into the study of nutrition and health back in 1961. It was not easy to learn, because of the misinformation coming from the Food Industry who presented their research to the world with the blessing of our money-grubbing government.

Are there ANY MAHA doctors in the VA..? Else how can we get the nutrient and energy therapies into anybody's hands???

I took copies of the successful history of PTSD being cured [from the Korean war] and tried to get the local county admin to effectively rescue those diagnosed with it to enable them to escape the cut-poison-burn alternatives to instead use niacin and vit C...

Would RFKjr's progress make local officials more receptive..?

B/C

I have a small hyperbaric chamber -- FDA slipped up and lets Americans get ''mild'' chambers for ''anti-aging'' maybe thinking that ''mildness'' was a mere placebo so no threat to pharmaceuticals but it's effective against TBI and PTSD...better even...

So....

Problem #1... no VA doc is gonna prescribe it.... as you noted the doctors know zilch but think they know it all.... maybe a sports MD, if any were in po-dunky rural counties where the Vets came from.....

Problem #2... I can use it for my own needs but doing it for someone else is a whole other treatment scene requiring some certificate and time/funding to get one...

Problem #3... the VA-patient is on DRUGS and HBOT does speed up reactions... good for vitamins and maybe herbals but NOT for speeding the damn drugs they are trapped in....

Problem #4... get a law degree b/c VA has fractious rules against naturopathy [practically needed to escape drugs], and big LAW tangles in partnerships and tangles of studies under tentative legislation trying to filter out large numbers who might venture to try what ATHLETES DO FOR THEMSELVES...for injuries and wounds...

Even if we found one MAHA doc in the VA, could he serve the local TBI cases under some normal VA TeleMedicine...?

Well, the VA had safety signals triggered 6 months after the shot roll out for myocarditis after the 1st Pfizer shot. A VA employee, Fran Cunningham, emailed the CDC on 13 May 2021 with the warning.

The VA never told veterans they could be harmed.

The VA still forced their employees to take the covid shots under the federal government mandate.

There was tremendous pressure on us veterans to take the shots.

And, the VA is still offering the covid shots with no warning.

These symptoms you describe sound like brain injury. How do we know this was not caused by vaccines an then blamed on proximity to explosions? Since AI has now read everything ever written perhaps it might know how many of these types of injury were seen in the first world war when large numbers of soldiers were in close to multiple explosions for long periods. My best guess is that our brave soldiers who fought in the forever wars were probably experimented on with drugs of all kinds so the powers that should not be could find out what the real side effects were, rather than the fake testing that goes on in the fake trials that are designed only to pass licensure. I did not join the military and discouraged our sons from joining not because I was afraid of the battle field.

Before being shipped out, I read all kinds of stuff, called vaccines, seven or more injections, are given in one appointment and these big strong persons are then sent home for about a month to get over their multiple same day injections sickness. Then they are shipped out.

If not injected, they likely will not be shipped out, anywhere. Vaccines, too many given on one appointment, may have the same effect we see on some children whose parents were then charged with.Shaken Baby Syndrome.

One man faces an execution on such charges in Texas, USA. He may get a new trial. He was convicted of causing his two year old daughter to her seizure-death over 30 years ago, being on death row that long. No one is asking questions did the mother allow seven injections on one appointment?

Elderly persons often soon die after being mandated injected in long term care homes, too.

We have sudden sickness and sudden deaths yet going on with adults being Covid-19 boosted.

Trump, it was said, took a seasonal flu jab with the Covid-19 booster. Is this true? Why no Ivermectin if true?

He is now seen walking with imbalance now and his complexion looks yellowish, similar to a liver toxic disease. Keep searching for truth of the diseased and the deceased, always check their vaccine records to know all truth.

Always have the Coroner do blood and cell investigations, too.

Parasites can be injected as they are no bigger than this dot (.). Hand shaking can pass them to others as "glove wearing after any injections is not mandated" and everyone sheds who is vaccinated to the unvaxxed, too.

After Covid-19 injections by fear-vaxxed to the unvaxxed, we may all be on the same sinking ship.

You are correct in that TBI can be caused by shearing forces without a penetrating wound. It happens in auto accidents as well with sudden deceleration causing the brain tissues to absorb the injury and shear brain tissues. It’s physics. As a trauma ICU nurse, I learned these injuries are often the most debilitating because they cause a more generalized rather than a specific injury. Due to the nature of shearing injuries, these patients generally did not recover. They were not obvious injuries which made it harder to comprehend. These were the most debilitating and the most heartbreaking. Then society dies not give due respect and care for these poor patriotic citizens. We need to take a stance of caring for our own first. You take care of your family before you can take care of others. We are failing these patriots.

WRONG.... Trump did not say STEAL the oil... AND .... AI says:

Venezuela did not adequately compensate American oil companies after nationalizing their assets, and the companies received significantly less than they claimed or were awarded by arbitration panels. The nationalization process was contentious, with companies like ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips ultimately receiving only a fraction of the value of their expropriated assets through a combination of smaller cash payments and government bonds, often after years of legal battles.

Trump on Libya: "We Should Attack It For 50% Of Their Oil"

Feb. 2011

Donald Trump suggested that the United States should invent a reason to invade Africa, a decision that would mark a serious escalation of the U.S. military campaign for natural resources. It's was the position for Trump, who has argued both in favor of and against military invasion in Libya over the past five to six years.

Trump had previously argued in favor of invading Iraq. Although Trump has emphasized a military policy of "America First" and railed against foreign entanglements, he has repeatedly said the U.S. needs to "knock out" leaders of countries.

How Donald Trump and John Bolton Attempted a Coup in Venezuela

July 14, 2022

Benjamin Norton - Multipolarista

Donald Trump's National Security Advisor John Bolton wrote a book, "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir," detailing the US coup attempt and hybrid war against Venezuela.

Donald Trump's neoconservative US National Security Advisor John Bolton admitted on CNN he "helped plan coups d'etat" in Venezuela and "other places."

Multipolarista editor Benjamin Norton analyzes Bolton's book "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir," which details the US hybrid war on Venezuela.

The following is an excerpt from the Multipolarista report "Trump advisor John Bolton admits planning US coups in Venezuela and beyond":

Trump fired John Bolton in September 2019, partially due to his failure in the Venezuela coup attempts.

In 2020, Bolton published a 500-page tell-all memoir, titled "The Room Where It Happened." He was offered a $2 million advance for the book, and promised millions more in royalties.

The memoir turned Bolton into a media celebrity. He cashed in on the opportunity to criticize Trump for supposedly not being enough of a warmonger.

"The Room Where It Happened" mentions Venezuela and Venezuelans more than 300 times, and has a 35-page chapter dedicated specifically to detailing his coup attempt, titled "Venezuela Libre" (Free Venezuela).

Bolton did not hide his neocolonialist worldview in the book, once again invoking the nearly 200-year-old Monroe Doctrine.

Fearmongering about Venezuela's alliance with China, Russia, Iran, and Cuba, he declared, "America had opposed external threats in the Western Hemisphere since the Monroe Doctrine, and it was time to resurrect it."

Bolton wrote that Trump shared this colonialist mentality. He claimed the president said that Venezuela is "really part of the United States," and that "it would be 'cool' to invade Venezuela," according to White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly.

"Trump still wanted a military option," Bolton emphasized. This is consistent with what former Defense Secretary Mark Esper described in his book.

The neoconservative national security advisor also boasted in the book that the Trump administration's coup attempt against Venezuela had bipartisan backing from both Republicans and Democrats "on the Hill, where support on both sides of the aisle for our hard line in Venezuela was almost uniform."

"And the press coverage was uniformly favorable," he added contently.

Bolton pointed out the coincidental timing that, "Shortly after I became National Security Advisor, while Maduro was speaking at a military awards ceremony on August 4, he was attacked by two drones."

Maduro said his government has intelligence proving that Bolton had planned the assassination attempt.

Showing his sadistic streak, Bolton wrote that the photos of Venezuela soldiers running away from the killer drones was "hilarious."

In a meeting after the drone assassination attempt, Bolton wrote that "Trump said to me emphatically, 'Get it done,' meaning get rid of the Maduro regime. 'This is the fifth time I've asked for it,' he continued."

The national security advisor noted that Trump's secretary of state, former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, was strongly in agreement, stating "'we should go to the wall' to get Maduro out."

Bolton added, "Trump insisted he wanted military options for Venezuela and then keep it because 'it's really part of the United States.'"

Trump had made it clear that he was considering invading Venezuela as far back as August 2017, Bolton pointed out. In a press conference that August, Trump had stated, "We have many options for Venezuela, including a possible military option, if necessary."

In the memoir, Bolton admitted that that illegal unilateral sanctions the United States imposed on Venezuela were aimed at "driving the state-owned oil monopoly's production as low as possible," in an attempt "to crash Maduro's regime."

"Trump stressed that he wanted the 'strongest possible sanctions' against Venezuela," Bolton wrote.

Trump also "wanted assurances regarding post-Maduro access to Venezuela's oil resources, trying to ensure that China and Russia would not continue to benefit from their deals," he added.

Bolton stressed that Trump had great "interest in Venezuela's oil fields," and he recalled that the US president insisted "we should take the oil in Venezuela after ousting Maduro."

Similarly, Bolton recalled numerous stories that showed how Trump's Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs banker and hedge fund manager, was most concerned about the interests of US corporations.

He wrote that Mnuchin frequently "talked to oil-company executives." Mnuchin was concerned about remaining "US oil-and-gas assets in Venezuela," and "worried that steps in the banking sector would hurt Visa and Mastercard."

What is so hateful and wrong about Sen. Cruz’s remarks?

John Leake, I expect better from you here. Stop the foolish idea that support for our ally Israel means immediate involvement of the US in a ground war. That’s rubbish; it has not been the case and will not be. The Republicans do not need the support of antisemites like Fuentes and his infantile followers.

Pentagon Has NO IDEA Who They’re Murdering - On Venezuelan Boats

Nov. 2, 2025

U.S. EMPIRE - FOLLOW THE MONEY

The Jimmy Dore Show

Rand Paul: 'All Of These People Have Been Blown Up Without Us Knowing Their Name.'

Senate Rand Paul, questioned the wisdom and legality of Donald Trump’s policies toward Venezuela and so-called, suspected drug dealers coming from its coast.

Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” the Kentucky Republican again raised concerns about the legality of the Trump administration’s murders of people on boats, that it claims are carrying drug traffickers.

As well as Donald Trump’s statement that the United States might conduct direct attacks on Venezuela’s territory.

“When you kill someone, you should know, if you’re not at war, not in a declared war, you really need to know someone’s name at least,” Paul said. “You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without us knowing their name, without any evidence of a crime.”

He also wondered about the wisdom of telling another country that the United States planned to conduct secret operations aimed at its government.

“If you announce that you’re going to have covert CIA action, it’s no longer covert,” he said to host Kristen Welker. “So if you’re going to spy on a country you usually don’t announce that you’re going to spy on a country. So it’s a little bit unusual there. I do think there are members of his administration who have been agitating for war with Venezuela for a long, long period of time.”

This is not the first time that Paul has challenged American policy on Venezuela, particularly the extra-judicial killing of possible drug smugglers. “What a despicable and thoughtless sentiment it is to glorify killing someone without a trial,” Paul wrote on X in September after Vice President JD Vance praised the policy.

Trump on Libya: "We Should Attack It For 50% Of Their Oil"

Feb. 2011

Donald Trump suggested that the United States should invent a reason to invade Africa, a decision that would mark a serious escalation of the U.S. military campaign for natural resources. It's was the position for Trump, who has argued both in favor of and against military invasion in Libya over the past five to six years.

Trump had previously argued in favor of invading Iraq. Although Trump has emphasized a military policy of "America First" and railed against foreign entanglements, he has repeatedly said the U.S. needs to "knock out" leaders of countries.

You are taking Trump’s admittedly imprecise wording out of context. “Steal” is your interpretation of what he said. MJ has the correct context.

How Donald Trump and John Bolton Attempted a Coup in Venezuela

July 14, 2022

Benjamin Norton - Multipolarista

Donald Trump's National Security Advisor John Bolton wrote a book, "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir," detailing the US coup attempt and hybrid war against Venezuela.

Donald Trump's neoconservative US National Security Advisor John Bolton admitted on CNN he "helped plan coups d'etat" in Venezuela and "other places."

Multipolarista editor Benjamin Norton analyzes Bolton's book "The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir," which details the US hybrid war on Venezuela.

The following is an excerpt from the Multipolarista report "Trump advisor John Bolton admits planning US coups in Venezuela and beyond":

Trump fired John Bolton in September 2019, partially due to his failure in the Venezuela coup attempts.

In 2020, Bolton published a 500-page tell-all memoir, titled "The Room Where It Happened." He was offered a $2 million advance for the book, and promised millions more in royalties.

The memoir turned Bolton into a media celebrity. He cashed in on the opportunity to criticize Trump for supposedly not being enough of a warmonger.

"The Room Where It Happened" mentions Venezuela and Venezuelans more than 300 times, and has a 35-page chapter dedicated specifically to detailing his coup attempt, titled "Venezuela Libre" (Free Venezuela).

Bolton did not hide his neocolonialist worldview in the book, once again invoking the nearly 200-year-old Monroe Doctrine.

Fearmongering about Venezuela's alliance with China, Russia, Iran, and Cuba, he declared, "America had opposed external threats in the Western Hemisphere since the Monroe Doctrine, and it was time to resurrect it."

Bolton wrote that Trump shared this colonialist mentality. He claimed the president said that Venezuela is "really part of the United States," and that "it would be 'cool' to invade Venezuela," according to White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly.

"Trump still wanted a military option," Bolton emphasized. This is consistent with what former Defense Secretary Mark Esper described in his book.

The neoconservative national security advisor also boasted in the book that the Trump administration's coup attempt against Venezuela had bipartisan backing from both Republicans and Democrats "on the Hill, where support on both sides of the aisle for our hard line in Venezuela was almost uniform."

"And the press coverage was uniformly favorable," he added contently.

Bolton pointed out the coincidental timing that, "Shortly after I became National Security Advisor, while Maduro was speaking at a military awards ceremony on August 4, he was attacked by two drones."

Maduro said his government has intelligence proving that Bolton had planned the assassination attempt.

Showing his sadistic streak, Bolton wrote that the photos of Venezuela soldiers running away from the killer drones was "hilarious."

In a meeting after the drone assassination attempt, Bolton wrote that "Trump said to me emphatically, 'Get it done,' meaning get rid of the Maduro regime. 'This is the fifth time I've asked for it,' he continued."

The national security advisor noted that Trump's secretary of state, former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, was strongly in agreement, stating "'we should go to the wall' to get Maduro out."

Bolton added, "Trump insisted he wanted military options for Venezuela and then keep it because 'it's really part of the United States.'"

Trump had made it clear that he was considering invading Venezuela as far back as August 2017, Bolton pointed out. In a press conference that August, Trump had stated, "We have many options for Venezuela, including a possible military option, if necessary."

In the memoir, Bolton admitted that that illegal unilateral sanctions the United States imposed on Venezuela were aimed at "driving the state-owned oil monopoly's production as low as possible," in an attempt "to crash Maduro's regime."

"Trump stressed that he wanted the 'strongest possible sanctions' against Venezuela," Bolton wrote.

Trump also "wanted assurances regarding post-Maduro access to Venezuela's oil resources, trying to ensure that China and Russia would not continue to benefit from their deals," he added.

Bolton stressed that Trump had great "interest in Venezuela's oil fields," and he recalled that the US president insisted "we should take the oil in Venezuela after ousting Maduro."

Similarly, Bolton recalled numerous stories that showed how Trump's Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs banker and hedge fund manager, was most concerned about the interests of US corporations.

He wrote that Mnuchin frequently "talked to oil-company executives." Mnuchin was concerned about remaining "US oil-and-gas assets in Venezuela," and "worried that steps in the banking sector would hurt Visa and Mastercard."
