A 20-second video shot by a bystander doesn’t show what led up to the shooting and Wisconsin authorities have given few details
The Kenosha, Wis., police union issued a statement Friday on the police shooting of Jacob Blake, an incident last Sunday that sparked protests and rioting in the city this week that led to at least two deaths.
Authorities have said Blake, 29, was shot in the
back seven times by Kenosha police Officer Rusten Sheskey while being
taken into custody.
On Friday he remained paralyzed in a Kenosha
hospital.
Video of the incident shot by a bystander set off
violent nightly protests -- including Tuesday night's unrest, in which a
17-year-old from Illinois allegedly fatally shot two people and wounded
a third.
In Sunday's incident, Blake was "armed with a knife" and
"forcefully fought" with officers, putting one of them in a headlock,
Brendan Matthews, an attorney for the Kenosha Professional Police
Association, said Friday, according to Kenosha News.
State
investigators, however, said Blake had a knife "in his possession," and
it was later recovered from the floorboard of his vehicle, FOX 6 of Milwaukee reported.
Matthews said officers first tried unsuccessfully to subdue Blake with stun guns.
The police union statement added that most accounts of the shooting were "wholly inaccurate" and "purely fictional,” Kenosha News reported.
“The purely fictional depiction of events coming from those without
direct knowledge of what actually occurred is incredibly harmful, and
provides no benefit to anyone whatsoever, other than to perpetuate a
misleading narrative,” Matthews stated.
“Mr. Blake was not
unarmed. He was armed with a knife. The officers did not see the knife
initially. The officers issued repeated commands for Mr. Blake to drop
the knife. He did not comply.”
The 20-second video shot by a bystander doesn’t show what led up to the
shooting and Wisconsin authorities have given few details.
Editor Note
If jacob blake had a knife, fought with the police and put one of them in a head lock I can understand why he was shot. He was armed and a threat to the police and others.
Cell phone videos most of the time don't show the whole story before, during or after something.
Cell phone videos are like sound bites that can easily be taken out of context.
Geroge floyd had cell phone videos taken of him before, during and after his arrest.
These videos did not show the whole story of what happened.
George floyd had a lethal dose of Fentanyl.
George Floyd had a significant dose of fentanyl in his system, a drug 50
times more powerful than morphine and which is known to cause
respiratory distress. He combined it with meth and marijuana. It just
strains credulity to claim that this played no role in his death
whatsoever.
He was seen standing up telling the offers he could not breath because of the fentanyl which supresses the breathing process.
Floyd stuck the drugs up his rear end trying to hide the drugs. This is why he was saying he could not breath before the cops put him on the ground. Floyd would not comply with officers when told to get into the police car. The officers did not know he had stuck a lethal dose of fentanyl, meth and marijuana up his rear before they arrested him.
Cell phone video did not show this.
Floyd's death has been ruled a homicide.
The autopsy report
from Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office concludes the cause of
death was "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual,
restraint, and neck compression."
Cell phone videos are like a snapshot picture that does not tell the whole story.
Only part of the story which is then manipulated by the mass news media, blm etc to incite the public for political purposes.
FAKE NEWS and shapshot cell phone videos are joined at the hip and are used to deceive the public in most cases.
There is a big elephant in the room hospitals, nursing homes, states and the federal government ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT!
When a nursing home resident is transferred to a general acute care hospital, federal and state rules require the bed be held for up to 7 days. If the hospitalization exceeds 7 days, the facility must nonetheless provide the resident with the first available bed in the nursing home after he or she is cleared for return.
So all over the US covid-19 patients were and are being retured back to nursing homes.
The news media is NOT telling you the facts.
Nursing-home administrators have various reasons for hospital dumping: perhaps the residents require more care or have behavioral issues, such as emotional agitation or abusive outbursts.
One thing is sure, the residents either don’t have any money—or they have run out of the money they had.
Whatever the reason, the nursing home just leaves the resident in the hospital.
According to law, if a nursing home can’t meet a resident’s medical needs, the nursing home staff should call the state department of health and senior services.
But it’s quicker and cheaper (for the nursing home) to simply dump the patient on the hospital.
{How many nursing homes dumped their covid-19 patients to hospitals?}
Rules being broken without consequence
Nursing home abuse lawyers say that facilities around the country are
breaking the rules when it comes to evicting nursing home residents.
Those rules, as defined by the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 42 CFR
483, require that facilities must permit residents to remain unless:
The transfer or discharge is necessary for the resident’s welfare and the resident’s needs cannot be met in the facility;
The transfer or discharge is appropriate because the resident’s
health has improved sufficiently so the resident no longer needs the
services provided by the facility;
The safety of individuals in the facility is endangered;
The health of individuals in the facility would otherwise be endangered;
The resident has failed, after reasonable and appropriate notice, to
pay for (or to have paid under Medicare or Medicaid) a stay at the
facility. For a resident who becomes eligible for Medicaid after
admission to a facility, the facility may charge a resident only
allowable charges under Medicaid; or
The facility ceases to operate.
When one of the
above occurs, federal law also requires everything to be documented to
avoid foul play.
Unfortunately, many facilities simply don’t follow
those rules and transfer or discharge patients they just don’t want to
care for anymore. There have been numerous reports of nursing home
facilities falsely accusing residents of violence, forging documentation
in order to get rid of unwanted patients or, believe it or not, dumping
patients into a hospital emergency department and then refusing to take
them back. Unfortunately, many patients, or their families, don’t know
that filing a lawsuit is an option. Not surprisingly, the patients
generally are not informed of their right to the 30-day eviction notice.
Nursing home residents who are transferred,
dumped, or evicted from long-term care facilities are victims of
nursing home abuse.
These issues, which are far more common than most
people think, are especially troubling because nursing home and assisted
living facility residents and their families often simply don’t know
they have rights and can fight back. Nurses, as patient
advocates, ought to know this—and all discharge planners need to be
aware of both the practice and the patient’s rights.
Ultimately, the
responsibility resides with the state, and until the state has been
informed and other arrangements made, the patient must not, ever, just
be dumped—by nursing home or hospital.
Editor Bonus Note
I have first hand knowledge of some things that have gone on in a few nursing home.
A big problem is a family member taking a nursing home patient's home, money and everything else they have while keeping them in the dark about what they are doing.
I know of a lady in a nursing home who trusted her daughter to handle her estate.
Her daughter and her boyfriend sold her mothers's home and everything in it without her knowledge or approval! They stole everything!
This happens all the time. Family members steal everything a nursing home patient has if the nursing home patient has given their consent for the family member to control the finances. This is a blank check for abuse!
When you are admitted to a nursing home you are at risk for abuse from your family and or the nursing home.
A hidden fact could put you in a nursing home at a young age.
If after being in a hospital for some reason, surgery etc and its time to be discharged but there is no family member to take care of you or a family member is not willing to take care of you guess where you will go?
Thats right to a nursing home. Are you shocked?
If you are not able to take care of yourself and no one else will you could be headed for a nursing home.
The state and fed government will pay for the nursing home to "take care of you".
If you have a greedy family member that you have let handle your money etc you might end up with nothing and staying in a nursing home!
Thats enough to keep you awake at night, I hope, thinking about planning ahead in case you are caught in this situation.
I would try to find an honest lawyer to talk to about this possibility.
If you are already in a nursing home, for whatever reason, bad state and federal laws allow hospitals to send nursing home patients back to nursing homes.
Could this mean that hospitals send covid-19 patients back to nursing home?
Not if they can hide this fact.
Or the nursing home hospital patient could be covid-19 and coming back to the nursing home from a hospital or even a home where someone has covid-19.
If you are in a nursing home you are at a bigger risk to get sick from a patient being admitted or readmitted to where you are.
This is another big elephant in the room nobody is talking about also.
In a hospital you would be isolated from covid-19 patients.
In a nursing home you don't know who may have covid-19 and are not isolated.
This is one reason why a nursing home has more deaths from covid-19.
Another major reason is many patient in nursing home also have underlying health conditions that kill them when the get the covid-19.
Another major reason is covid-19 spreads faster in a nursing home because patients are not isolated enough.
During the covid-19 pandemic the nursing home will not let you visit a patient so you can't help feed your loved one or check on them.
A total recipe for death in a nursing home.
How many nursing homes have killed their patients?
How many hospitals have condemned their patients to death in a nursing home?
The bottom line for hospitals and nursing homes is the money.
Senator Rand Paul and his wife are attacked by BLM mob as they leaves the White House following RNC and he thanks cops for 'saving out lives' after protesters earlier tried to silence Trump's speech with air horns
Kentucky senator Rand Paul and his wife were attacked by protesters as they left the White House Thursday
Video shows him being nearly knocked down, before being escorted away from the scene by police
Protesters were seen accosting and heckling other guests leaving the Republican National Convention
Hundreds of protesters gathered to chant and blow horns in an effort to drown out Trump's speech
Horns could be heard in the background of the televised broadcast, while firecrackers were also set off
Rand Paul was just one of several guests who were accosted by the protesters, who had gathered outside the White House in order to drown out Trump's speech
Raucous protesters accosted Republican National Convention guests leaving the White House Thursday evening, hurling expletives and calling them racist
This is what the group called "black lives matter" does to people all over the country at various times.
They cuss, screem, threaten, and tell people they are racist if they don't support BLM and their agenda to overthrow America.
BLM protesters along with their Antifa allies burn buildings of innocent people, loot stores of innocent people and threaten innocent people in various democratic controlled cities across America.
Dabo Sweeny, coach at Clemson university said, I whole heartly support "black lives matter".
He took a knee to BLM before he read the fine print about their radical agenda as he told his students to do before joining a protest.
Dabo Sweeney and many others have taken a knee or raised a fist in support of the radical terrorist group know as BLM.
Sometimes people with good intentions but ignorant of the BLM agenda join in daytime or nighttime protests which also include radical blm members and antifa.
Night after night BLM radical protestors burn, loot and beat people with various objects all the while in a CRAZED frenzy shouting slogans and profanity at anyone who disagrees with them.
Even those who support blm have their buildings or businesses burned down in the mobs crazed frenzy.
There is only one thing that will stop a crazed mob attacking your business, home or your person.
Its not the police in democrate controlled free gun zones.
Its not the police if they don't protect you in these radical democrate cities.
Its not the police who respond 15, 30 or 45 minutes too late.
Its you and your weapon defending yourself or your business.
The news media would have you believe this crazed BLM violence will spread everywhere across America.
This is not true.
In non democrate controlled states and cities police defend citizens and citizens defend themselves.
The crazed BLM protestors take a knee to a well armed citizen when they are confronted with the option of citizen self defense.
In a nearby city where I live the police back in June pointed their guns at a BLM mob that was trying to loot a target store.
They were told that if the blm protesters entered the store to loot they would be shot.
The blm mob then moved down the street about two blocks and tried to enter a lowes store to loot it.
The large blm mob was told by police with guns drawn that they would be shot as looters if the tried to loot the store.
The blm mob got the message and left the scene with NO damage to the target or lowes.
Since that time there has been NO blm mob trying to loot or burn any businesses in my area.
BLM took a knee to the police because they knew the police would NOT back down.
BLM got the business end of a weapon pointed at them so the fled like cowards.
If you are threatened with violence by some crazed blm protestors just make them take a knee to you using what is necessary to defend yourself.
Protect yourself and your business.
BLM protestors are crazed cowards that bully people by threats and intimidation.
Bully definition is - a blustering, browbeating person; especially : one who is habitually cruel, insulting, or threatening to others who are weaker, smaller, or in some way vulnerable.
All blm protestors are bullies because they condone what the group blm does.
If you support blm you are condoning what blm does which is terrorize people through various means.
A blm coward will back down if he or she or it is confronted with a lethal force for self defense.
If you support blm you are a coward who supports violent groups of people who are NOT peacefully protesting!
Dabo Sweeny, clemson sc coach is a coward who supports blm as are many other cowards who would rather take a knee or raise a fist in support of the radical commuist/socialist group known as "black lives matter".
To blm the phrase "black lives matter" is a slogan used to dupe people into thinking they are protesting in a peaceful matter for black people. They want you to give them money which they in turn send it to the radical democratic party and other radical groups who are trying to overthow our Republic and Freedom. Don't take a knee to blm and don't raise a fist in support of blm if they bully you. Make blm take a knee to you!
Email Dabo Sweeny Coach at Clemson and tell him he is a coward.
Both are stupid. The guy with the skateboard knew the guy he was hitting with his kid skateboard had a gun.
The guy with the gun should NOT have been out on the street with a gun.
Editor Note.
Kenosha shooting victim, 26, remembered by fellow skateboarders as ‘peaceful person’ ???
Anthony Huber "put his life on the line for others," one friend said. ???
The stupid idiot with the skateboard was NOT a peaceful protestor!
He did NOT put his life on the line for others as some of he fellow kid skateboarders are telling the media. He was joining blm and antifa protestors in the street in a violent way.
He confronted another kid with a gun and got shot.
Nicholas Sandman gives a powerful speech about how the left attacked him and attempted to "cancel" him. Nick is a brave American who fights for what is right!
‘Are you a christian!?’ BLM activists harass restaurant patrons who refuse to raise fists and shout slogans
A large group of white protesters can be seen crowding around the table of a white woman at a Washington DC restaurant and demanding that she raise her fist to comply
In a scene that played out several times Monday, a Black Lives Matter protest that began in Columbia Heights confronted White diners outside D.C. restaurants, chanting “White silence is violence!” and demanding White diners show their solidarity. #DCProtestspic.twitter.com/fJbPM76vb0
Watch these 2 videos about how people are subjected to radical BLM demands while trying to dine outside.
BLM radicals act like terrorists who demand that you raise a fist in support of black lives matter.
Notice its always a group of blm black or whites that confront people in a violent demanding way.
These radicals are cowards and use groups of people in a forceful way to terrorize others who don't agree with their crazed radical views of destroying America.
These are vidoes or crazed people acting like terrorists demanding you or I raise a fist or take a knee to BLM.
Many people just complied and raised their fist in support of blm.
{Dabo Sweeny Clemson coach said, "I whole hartedly support blm."
He took a knee and submitted like a coward and is a disgrace.}
Many do support the blm terrorists. Some because of ignorance and some because they are deceived by blm.
Many do not support the blm terrorists and just want to avoid confrontation with these crazed individuals.
If some of these crazed individuals confronted me I would not raise my fist in support. I would be ready to defend myself if necessary because I am packing and I don't mean I am moving somewhere.
Here is what I think could happen in the 2020 Presidential election.
Because of widespread national mail in voting fraud and ballot harvesting the election popular vote outcomes may not be known on election night Nov 4, 2020.
Some states will have close votes and others will not.
The democrates will file lawsuits to try to steal the election results all over the nation.
The republicans will also file lawsuits to prevent the democrates from stealing votes all over the nation.
Because of this there will also be various state supreme courts making rulings on their individual state election outcomes.
Some of these rulings will be valid and some will not be valid rulings.
This will mean different state supreme court ruling will be appealed to the US Supreme Court at some point.
On Dec 12, 2000 the US Supreme Court Ruled on the state of Florida Presidential election results.
This resulted in the election of George Bush Jr.
THE SUPREME COURT of the US could vote again in Dec 2020 before the Electorial votes are cast.
The Supreme Court could rule again to override a State Supreme Court decesion.
The US Supreme Court could rule to allow fradulent ballots to be acceptable based on various state laws.
This is only one of the unknown monkey wrenches that could be thrown into the election results in 2020.
Here is a brief overview of the Electorial Vote Process.
Dec 14 Electorial ballots are cast by various electors in all the States.
The governor of each state must certify the electorial ballots in each state before they are sent via registered mail on Dec 15 to the Joint session of congress to be counted.
The absolute deadline for electorial ballot to be received by congress is Dec 28, 2020.
If congress does not receive the certified electorial ballots then that states electorial votes are not counted.
Joint session of congress counting electorial votes. (History)
There appears only to have been one example, in 1961, when the governor of the state of Hawaii first certified the electors of Vice President Richard M. Nixon as having been appointed, and then, due to a subsequent recount which determined that Senator John F. Kennedy had won the Hawaii vote, certified Senator Kennedy as the winner.
Both slates of electors had met on the prescribed day in December, cast their votes for President and Vice President, and transmitted them according to the federal statute.
This was the case even though the recount was apparently not completed until a later date, that is, not until December 28.
The presiding officer, that is, the President of the Senate, Vice President Nixon, suggested “without the intent of establishing a precedent” that the latter and more recent certification of Senator Kennedy be accepted so as “not to delay the further count of electoral votes.”
This was agreed to by unanimous consent.
In the 2020 Presidential election I do not think democrates or Republicans will allow late electorial votes to be counted via unanimous consent etc.
I think it is more likely that some states may not certify electorial votes due to litigation and voter fraud that will occur in 2020.
This is another monkey wrench waiting to keep the election from being concluded on Jan 6 when the electorial votes are counted in ajoint session.
On Jan 6, 2020 in a joint session of congress the electorial votes will be counted.
3 U.S.C. 15 sets the method for objections
Members of congress may object to individual electorial votes or to state rturns as a whole.
The objection to the electorial vote or votes must be made in writing and at least one senator and one representative must endorse the objection.
Both the house and senate must vote seperately and agree to the objection, otherwise the the objection fails and the electorial vote is counted.
(I can't see either the house or the senate agreeing to an objection in the 2020 joint session.)
A candidate for President must receive 270 electorial votes or more to become president.
If no candidate receives 270 or more electorial votes then the house will vote in an Contigent Election immediately following the Jan 6 joint session of congress.
The house will vote for the top 3 presidential candidates who got the most electorial votes.
NOTE THIS.
A majority of votes from EACH STATE DELIGATION is required to cast a vote in the house contigent election.
If there is NO majority of votes from a state delegation that state will not cast a vote in the house contigent election.
This is another potential monkey wrench but it is a small one.
The REPUBLICANS have the MAJORITY of STATE delegations in 2020.
If the house votes it will be the REPUBLICIAN STATE delegation majorities that will elect a President and it won't be slow joe.
BUT..........................
If the house is unable to elect a president by Jan 20, 2021 the vice president elect, selected by Senate contenginet election will become Acting President of the US and that will NOT be horozintal harris.
This is only until the empasse is resolved.
OH NO!
If the Senate Contingent election is unable to elect a vice president by a 51 vote majority, not likely, then the speaker of the house would serve as acting president.
Thats right Nasty Pelosi would be acting president.
If President Trump is elected in 2020 you can be sure that BLM and Antifa will kill and destroy as much as possible.
You can be sure also is sloe joe was elected via ballot harvesting and voter fraud BLM and Antifa will kill and destroy as much as possible.
I can see this possibility so I am packing every day, and I don't mean I am moving.
Bonus Editor Note
Here is the bottom line.
If the election results are close enough to stall the election of a president on Nov 3, 2020 we will see a side show circus until the US Supreme court and the deep state rule in slow joes favor for president.
The deep state shadow government which opposes President Trump and the US Constitution cannot and will not allow the house of representatives to hold a contingent election on or around Jan 6, 2020.
The reason is the Republicans hold the majority of state delegations and would vote for President Trump and he would become President.
So if the election circus comes to town it will end long before Jan 6, 2021 when the electorial votes are counted.
Look for the deep state to move the US Supreme Court to rule before Jan 6, 2021 for sure.
My best guess is about 1 month or so after the Nov 4, 2020 election.
If the election results are NOT close and the democrates, deep state, shadow government see they cannot win on Nov 4, 2020 the Supreme Court of the US will not rule.
But the deep state, shadow government democrates and others in congress will use the aforementioned "monkey wrenches" to try and steal the election from President Trump if he wins a majority of electors on Nov 4, 2020.
So even if President Trump wins in a landslide the shadow government in congress and elsewhere will do everything they can to defraud America by subverting the electorial vote process.
The radical communist democrates will do everything they can to mess up the electorial vote counting process.
I don't think they will win in the end.
I don't know how the election results will be on Nov 4, 2020.
I do know the deep state democrates will do everything they can to deny the American people their right to a free and honest election in 2020.
Fox News contributor Newt Gingrich shares his thoughts on the Democratic and Republicanconventions and the presidential race.
As an observer of conventions and presidential campaigns going back to 1956, I am confident in predicting that this week’s Democratic National Convention will be the high-water mark before the collapse of the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket.
As
the ticket collapses, it will start to move into the 1972 George
McGovern range of isolation from the American people. Ironically, the
physical isolation of Biden over the last few months has slowed down the political isolation, which will presently occur.
Three factors will lead to the collapse of the Biden-Harris ticket over the next six weeks.
First, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is
clearly incapable of functioning as president. Every time he comes out
from hiding in the basement, it is embarrassingly clear that he could
not possibly negotiate with Chinese Communist Party General Secretary Xi
Jinping or Russian President Vladimir Putin to any positive effect.
He
is performing weaker and weaker with each passing week. Even when his
campaign can control every aspect of his events or appearances, there is
something pathetic about Biden’s inability to project strength or
articulate any firm ideas.
I received an email from the
Biden-Harris headquarters which showed a gif of Biden and Harris coming
out of a doorway. Both were looking down or away and not interacting
with anyone (including each other). The email asked, “Have you ever seen
two people who look this ready to lead on Day 1?” I was flummoxed. They
didn’t look ready to do anything.
The question was a parody of
their problem, and the image was embarrassing. I was astounded because
the material had been made by the Biden campaign which had total control
of the product. Biden does not look like he is ready to lead. He is
looking down like he wants to make sure he doesn’t fall down.
Chris Wallace captured the absurdity of a presidential candidate trying
to hide his way to the White House with a “basement strategy,” when he
told Guy Benson, “It’s the damnedest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Harris will prove to be the most disastrous vice presidential nominee
since Sen. Tom Eagleton, D-Mo., had to resign from the McGovern ticket
when it turned out he had been subjected to shock therapy treatments for
mental issues (I am not criticizing mental illness or its treatment,
but in 1972, Americans simply did not want to think of a potential
president having mental illness).
As a presidential candidate,
Harris had wavered between embracing the most radical positions and then
opportunistically changing to more moderate positions when she got
blowback.
She was as unreliable in her policy positions as she was in
her attacks on Biden. She aggressively attacked Biden on four different
occasions and has since repudiated her own words. If Biden is exhausted
and hiding in a basement, his running mate is energetically bouncing all
over the place with no consistency or reliability.
During
the primary, Harris was at 15% support in July 2019. She then dropped
as low as 3.5% support by November 2019, according to Real Clear
Politics. Even in her home state of California, she had dropped to
fourth behind Biden, Warren and Sanders – and was only
attracting 8% support from her own constituents before she dropped out.
In fact, 61% of Californians thought she ought to drop out of the
presidential race, according to a poll by the Berkeley Institute of
Governmental Studies for the Los Angeles Times.
The Democrats (and
propaganda media) believe that she will be powerful in attracting the
African American vote. This is undermined by the objective reality that
in November 2019, after months of campaigning, a Quinnipiac University
poll showed Harris was fourth in attracting Black voters. Biden had 44%,
Sanders had 10%, Warren had 8%, and Harris was down to 6% of the Black
vote.
When Biden was drawing nearly eight Black votes for every vote
Harris was getting, so why would the Democrats think adding her to the
ticket was a smart idea.
Finally, as the depth of radicalism of
the Biden-Harris platform and the Chuck Schumer-Nancy Pelosi legislative
agenda become clear to the American people, they will be increasingly
alienated from the new radical Democratic Party and its candidates. The
increasing radicalism is already beginning to sink in.
Importantly, the real danger to the Democratic ticket is not the
general allegation that Biden-Harris is a radical ticket. The real
danger to the Democrats is the item-by-item alienation of different
groups of Americans based on adopting positions that please radicals but
are deeply opposed by most Americans.
The real change in public
opinion will begin shortly after the Democratic National Convention as
the Trump campaign and its allies (including virtually all Republican
candidates) point out these specific threats to specific groups.
Consider these threats:
1. The Biden-Harris commitment to renew the Obama effort to destroy suburban neighborhoods is
a direct threat to the peace of mind for two-thirds of the American
people – including a large number of African American and Latino
suburbanites.
2.
Biden-Harris' support of using taxpayer money to pay for abortions
through the ninth month of pregnancy is opposed even by many pro-choice
Americans (and is a break with Biden’s entire career of supporting the
Hyde Amendment, which bars taxpayer money from paying for abortions).
3.
The commitment in HR 6800, which 207 House Democrats supported and
Biden endorsed, to pay coronavirus relief payments to some people in the
country illegally is deeply unpopular.
4. Biden’s commitment to
Beto O’Rourke that he could pursue gun control (recall, O’Rourke wants
compulsory confiscation going door-to-door) will alienate virtually all
Second Amendment supporters.
5. The Democratic mayors and district
attorneys (many elected with George Soros’ money) represent a
pro-criminal future that is exploding into violence. As Democrats
continue to publicly praise soft on crime prosecutors and cry “defund
the police,” the choice in November will become pro-police vs.
pro-criminal, and there is a huge majority against violence.
6.
The teachers’ unions own the Democratic Party, and their blackmail
approach to reopening schools is isolating them from Americans.
Remember: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis earned 18 percent of Black female
votes against a Black Democratic opponent on the issue of school choice.
Editor Note
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are both liars and losers.
The democrates know there must be massive voter fraud to elect bide/harris in Nov 2020.
The democrates are counting on ballot harvesting and mail in voter fraud to win the election.
There will be massive voter fraud in Nov 2020 by the democrates.
If President Trump can overcome the massive voter fraud by the democrates in nov 2020 he will be reelected.
This is why the democrates are doing everything they can to allow ballot harvesting and mail in voting.
Absentee voting is not mail in voting and is a valid way to vote.
Absentee voting can be verified.
Ballot harvesting and mail in ballot voting CANNOT be verified and is prone to massive abuse and FRAUD!
Joe biden and kamala harris are certified LIARS.
Joe biden is a basket case. Horizontal harris is not helping him get elected but will only add to his and her defeat.

The deep state shadow government which includes members of congress and others in and outside of the US government are controlling all the FAKE news you are seeing daily.
Paid government contractors are controlling the fake news cycle.
The democrate machine includes many funding sources and their biggest cash cow is the group black lives matter web site and others. They have unlimited funds to deceive the American public about the covid-19 virus cure, mail in voting, the failed coup to impeach Trump etc etc.
From now Aug 15 until election day Nov 3, 2020 the FAKE news the Interactive Internet Activities, psychological operations (PSYOPS) on social media will continue and increase.
American is in a psychological operations (PSYOPS) war that has the sole purpose of sstopping President Trump from being reelected.
American lives don't matter to the democrates and the deep state shadow government that is trying to overthrow the real US government.
President Trump is totally aware of this.
He has warned America about the deep state.
He has spoken of a cure for the covid-19 Hydroxychloroquine.
He has told us about the group called black lives matter and its communist agenda.
He has warned us about mail in balloting with no way to check the authenticity of any mail in ballot. I am not talking about absentee ballots which can be authenticated. He has warned us that the elected will not be decided on Nov 3, 2020 President Trump has warned us that democrate voter fraud in various forms will cause a delay in the Presidential outcome.
Litigation will cause the Presidential election results to be delayed because of massive voter fraud by the democrates.
In 2000 the presidential outcome was delayed one and one half months.
The supreme court decided the outcome.
The US Constitution lays out the procedure for resolving the Presidential election if there is a problem deciding who won the election. In Nov 2020 we will not wait one and a half months as before to be TOLD who won the election. Notice I said be TOLD in caps. The supreme court will step in and decide the election BEFORE congress can decide the election. This is because under the rules of the US Constitution and how it spells out how the House Of Representatives will actually vote for the Preident in a dispute CANNOT be allowed to happen by the democrates. The house presidential vote does not allow for every member of the house to vote in a vote of who will become president. The vote is by state congressional delegations. The Republicans have a MAJORITY of congressional delegations that will vote to elect President Trump if they were given the chance. They won't be given the chance to elect president Trump. The supreme court and john roberts will make sure this does not happen. I don't have a crystal ball. I can guess at the outcome of the Presidential election 2020. If by a miracle President Trump wins a majority of electors this will not happen. If President Trump does not win a majority of electors the election I suspect will be decided by the john roberts supreme court. John roberts is part of the deep state shadow government also.
A slew of newly-elected officials were sworn into office in Washington, D.C., Jan. 3, 2017 including several Indian Americans.
Kamala Harris, D-Calif. The former state attorney general won the U.S. Senate election Nov. 8 2016 becoming the first Indian American U.S. senator.
Harris, 52, was sworn in by Vice President Joe Biden.
Note she was sworn in as the first Indian American U.S.Senator not as a black woman.
She now claims she is a black woman.
She is a woman of color as they say, an Indian woman not a black woman.
CNN and MSNBC will call her a black woman as she now says she is.
She has dropped the title as an Indian woman.
Kamala Harris is a fraud just like Joe Biden.
Both can't be trusted and both don't tell the truth.
She identity politics has transformed her ethnicity overnight.
Kamala Harris and Willie Brown
Kamala Harris was grandstanding again as she tried to bully Attorney
General Jeff Sessions on Capitol Hill. Sessions, with his smooth
southern drawl, outsmarted and outclassed Harris, who came off as a
screaming shrew, and it’s no wonder with her tawdry past.
Harris has a
dirty little sex secret that is coming back to haunt her, but that’s not
all. She has a long line of corrupt deals, one with Maxine Waters, that
helped her get power and stay in power.
If there ever was a swamp creature in Washington, D.C., it is Kamala
Harris.
In fact, she is the poster politician for all swamp creatures.
Harris has been trying to make a name for herself by screaming and
bullying two of the good guys left in D.C., Admiral Mike Rogers and Jeff
Sessions.
Well, the junior senator from California didn’t come out
unscathed, as her dirty little sex secret has come out.
Brown was 60 years old and Harris was 29 when
their affair began. Harris was so brazen that she came out publicly as
his date at his 60th birthday party, despite his wife of 36 years being
in attendance.
Kamala Harris began her political career as Willie Brown's mistress.
Harris slept with Brown for one reason; she used the corrupt San Francisco mayor to launch her rise to power.
Daily Caller reports,
“As Brown’s time as speaker drew to a close in 1994, he named Harris to
the California Medical Assistance Commission, a job that came with a
$72,000 annual salary. Brown had previously appointed her to the state
Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board.”
She “was described by several people at the Capitol as Brown’s girlfriend,” the Los Angeles Times
reported at the time.
Although that job paid nearly $98,000, Harris’
term was set to expire in five weeks when Brown tapped her for the
Medical Assistance Commission slot. That body met only monthly, and the
$72,000 position was not considered a full-time job.
Willie Brown is a sleaze-bag who led one of the most corrupt mayoral
offices ever seen in San Fransico, but that was fine with Harris, who
went on to steal the election for California’s Attorney General in 2010.
“Los Angeles District Attorney Steve Cooley led Harris by 34,000 votes
after more than 7 million were counted. But after provisional ballots
were counted, she was declared the winner by approximately 50,000
votes,” reports Daily Caller.
At one point, Cooley was up by 62,000 votes, and in panic mode,
Harris reached out to her good buddy California Secretary of State Debra
Bowen, whose role was to certify the votes. That’s when thousands of
Cooley’s votes just disappeared.
Kamala Harris’ path to power is strewn with illicit affairs and
fraudulent elections, and in desperation, she paid Maxine Waters’
daughter Karen $63,000 dollars to appear on mailers with Auntie Maxine. Washington Free Beacon
reports, “The payments were made from Harris’s campaign committee and
transferred to Waters’s campaign committee through a lucrative ‘slate
mailer’ operation run by Waters’s daughter, a program that has proved
profitable for both her daughter and the campaign.”
Liberal loons are grasping at straws on social media, hailing Harris
as the savior they need, and anyone who questions their new “it” girl
gets called a racist and a misogynist. Harris is nothing that any little
girl should aspire to be; she is just another swamp creature who got
there by having sex with a 60-year-old buffoon.
Most people don’t know about how former San Fransico Mayor Willie Brown
enriched his 30-year-old lover, Kamala Harris, in a money scheme. It’s
the one dirty secret the Harris campaign is hoping to keep under wraps.
Now that CNN suggested Joe could “step aside” for Kamala if they win,
Americans must know the truth.

Treatment with hydroxychloroquine alone decreased the mortality hazard ratio by 66% (p < 0.001), and hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin decreased the mortality hazard ratio by 71% (p < 0.001).
Results
Of 2,541 patients, with a median total hospitalization time of 6 days (IQR: 4–10 days), median age was 64 years (IQR:53–76 years), 51% male, 56% African American, with median time to follow-up of 28.5 days (IQR:3–53). Overall in-hospital mortality was 18.1% (95% CI:16.6%–19.7%); by treatment: hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin, 157/783 (20.1% [95% CI: 17.3%–23.0%]), hydroxychloroquine alone, 162/1202 (13.5% [95% CI: 11.6%–15.5%]), azithromycin alone, 33/147 (22.4% [95% CI: 16.0%–30.1%]), and neither drug, 108/409 (26.4% [95% CI: 22.2%–31.0%]).
Primary cause of mortality was respiratory failure (88%); no patient had documented torsades de pointes. From Cox regression modeling, predictors of mortality were age>65 years (HR:2.6 [95% CI:1.9–3.3]), white race (HR:1.7 [95% CI:1.4–2.1]), CKD (HR:1.7 [95%CI:1.4–2.1]), reduced O2 saturation level on admission (HR:1.5 [95%CI:1.1–2.1]), and ventilator use during admission (HR: 2.2 [95%CI:1.4–3.3]).
Hydroxychloroquine provided a 66% hazard ratio reduction, and hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin 71% compared to neither treatment (p < 0.001).
Conclusions and relevance
In this multi-hospital assessment, when controlling for COVID-19 risk factors, treatment with hydroxychloroquine alone and in combination with azithromycin was associated with reduction in COVID-19 associated mortality.
Read the complete study that proves hydroxychloroquine alone and in combination with azithromycin was associated with reduction in COVID-19 associated mortality.
The FDA is not telling your the full story about hydroxychloroquine nor the truth.
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are FDA-approved to treat or prevent malaria.
Hydroxychloroquine is also FDA-approved to treat autoimmune conditions such as chronic discoid lupus erythematosus, systemic lupus erythematosus in adults, and rheumatoid arthritis.
It has been used for many years safely to treat people.
The FDA is using a flawed study to caution about the use of Hydroxychloroquine in the treatment of covid-19.
Pseudo-Science behind the Assault on Hydroxychloroquine
Summary
Scientific literature on hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), azithromycin (AZ), and their use for COVID-19. My conclusions:
HCQ-based treatments are effective in treating COVID-19, unless started too late.
Studies, cited in opposition, have been misinterpreted, invalid, or worse.
HCQ and AZ are some of the most tested and safest prescription drugs.
Severe COVID-19 frequently causes cardiac effects, including heart arrhythmia. QTc prolonging drugs might amplify this tendency. Millions of people regularly take drugs having strong QTc prolongation effect, and neither FDA nor CDC bother to warn them. HCQ+AZ combination, probably has a mild QTc prolongation effect. Concerns over its negative effects, however minor, can be addressed by respecting contra-indications.
Effectiveness of HCQ-based treatment for COVID-19 is hampered by conditions that are presented as precautions, delaying the onset of treatment. For examples, some states require that COVID-19 patients be treated with HCQ exclusively in hospital settings.
The COVID-19 Treatment Panel of NIH evaded disclosure of the massive financial links of its members to Gilead Sciences, the manufacturer of a competing drug remdesivir. Among those who failed to disclose such links are 2 out of 3 of its co-chairs.
Despite all the attempts by certain authorities to prevent COVID-19 treatment with HCQ and HCQ+AZ, both components are approved by FDA, and doctors can prescribe them for COVID-19.
Intro
Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was accepted as a COVID-19 treatment by the medical community in the US and worldwide by early April. 67% of the US physicians said they would prescribe HCQ or chloroquine CQ for COVID-19 to a family member (Town Hall, 2020-04-08). An international poll of doctors rated HCQ the most effective coronavirus treatment (NY Post, 2020-04-02). On April 6, Peter Navarro told CNN that “Virtually Every COVID-19 Patient In New York Is Given Hydroxychloroquine.” This might explain decrease in COVID-19 deaths in the New York state after April 15. The time lag is because COVID-19 deaths happen on average 14 days after showing symptoms.
But on April 21, several perfectly coordinated events took place, attacking HCQ’s use for COVID-19 patients.
The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel of the National Institute of Health issued recommendations with negative-ambivalent stance regarding the use of HCQ as a COVID-19 treatment. This surprising stance was taken contrary to the ample evidence of the efficacy and safety of HCQ and despite absence evidence of its harm. The panel also strongly recommended against the use of hydroxychloroquine with azithromycin (AZ), the combination of choice among practitioners.
On the same day, a paper (Magagnoli, 2020) was posted on a pre-print server medRxiv, insinuating that HCQ is not only ineffective, but even harmful. This not-yet peer reviewed paper, by unqualified authors with conflicts of interest, received wall-to-wall media coverage, as it if were a cancer cure. It used data from Veterans Administration hospitals, spicing its effects. The paper has shown to be somewhere between junk science and fraud.
Rick Bright, a government official who was probably more responsible for the low level of preparedness to the epidemic than most others, and had been re-assigned to a lower position earlier, emerged as a “whistleblower.” He claimed he had been demoted for opposing hydroxychloroquine, the claim to be soon debunked by documents bearing his signature. The media also gave him a wall-to-wall coverage.
On April 24, the FDA struck its own blow, issuing a stern warning against use of HCQ for COVID-19 treatment.
While these warnings are not binding to doctors, they do produce a chilling effect. Consequently, either patients do not receive necessary treatment, or they receive it with a delay, sharper decreasing its effect. This allows detractors to question HCQ efficacy even more aggressively. Below, I review problems in the NIH COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines and other sources, used to wage anti-HCQ propaganda.
NIH Panel Guidelines
The relevant section of (COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel, 2020) is Potential Antiviral Drugs. The antiviral treatment recommendations (more accurately, failure to provide recommendations) include:
“Remdesivir
There are insufficient clinical data to recommend either for or against the use of the investigational antiviral agent remdesivir for the treatment of COVID-19 (AIII).
Clinical Data to Date: Only anecdotal data are available.“ “AIII” means a strong position based on expert opinion rather than on evidence.
“Chloroquine or Hydroxychloroquine
There are insufficient clinical data to recommend either for or against using chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of COVID-19 (AIII).
When chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine is used, clinicians should monitor the patient for adverse effects (AEs), especially prolonged QTc interval (AIII).
Clinical Data in COVID-19 The clinical data available to date on the use of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 have been mostly from use in patients with mild, and in some cases, moderate disease; data on use of the drugs in patients with severe and critical COVID-19 are very limited. [Follows is a description of some studies]“
Notice that CQ and HCQ are addressed together, although these are two different drugs, and HCQ is clearly superior to CQ both in efficiency and safety.
Also notice that the basic recommendation of “insufficient clinical data to recommend either for or against” is given to both HCQ and Remdesivir. However, the recommendation for HCQ goes further to state that when using HCQ, “clinicians should monitor the patient for adverse effects (AEs), especially prolonged QTc interval”. Practically, this means that HCQ should be used only in hospital settings. No such restrictions are set for Remdesivir, for which there is no clinical data available. It goes against all logic.
The demand to use HCQ only in hospital settings means:
HCQ treatment will be delayed until a patient decides to be admitted to a hospital, thus lowering HCQ’s efficiency
Hospitals will quickly become overwhelmed with COVID-19 patients
Then the Panel nixes HCQ+AZ:
“Hydroxychloroquine plus Azithromycin
The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel recommends against the use of hydroxychloroquine plus azithromycin for the treatment of COVID-19, except in the context of a clinical trial (AIII).“
This drug combination is the most effective and widely used treatment for COVID-19, and the Panel recommends against it!
The Panel criticizes some studies of patients’ treatment with HCQ+AZ for the absence of a control group. Stephen McIntyre tweeted about this argument long before the Panel used it: “there’s a very large control group of COVID19 patients not receiving this drug combination: hospitals and morgues are full of them.”
There are only two studies, quoted by the Panel against HCQ+AZ, (Molina, 2020) and (Chorin, 2020). Both are misinterpreted by the Panel.
Molina et al.
Despite (Molina, 2020)’s angry tone and aggressiveness, it reports no results contradicting efficiency of HCQ or HCQ+AZ. The paper describes treatment of 11 hospitalized COVID-19 patients, five of which had cancer, one had AIDS, and almost all were in a bad shape: “at the time of treatment initiation, 10 of the 11 patients had a fever and received nasal oxygen therapy.” Using HCQ+AZ, 10 of the patients’ lives were saved. The article’s point of contention is that when they tested these patients, 5-6 days after the treatment initiation, they still found CoV2 RNA in 8 out of 10. Virus RNA is a molecule. Some viral RNA remains in patients for weeks after full recovery, but it is neither harmful nor infectious. Detecting viral RNA depends on the sensitivity of the testing equipment. The study’s title is No evidence of rapid antiviral clearance or clinical benefit with the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin in patients with severe COVID-19 infection seems to be lost on the Panel.
Chorin et al.
The Panel also quotes (Chorin, 2020) as evidence that HCQ+AZ therapy causes QTc prolongation. QTc prolongation is not a health condition itself, but a warning sign that a person is at higher risk of torsades de pointes (TdP), heart arrhythmia, or tachycardia, which might lead to cardiac arrest and death (Simpson, 2020).
Nevertheless, none of the patients, treated with HCQ+AZ, suffered TdP or arrhythmia. Four patients died, but none of them had an arrhythmia. Other studies, in which COVID-19 patients are treated with HCQ+AZ, reported taking patients off this medicine after QTc exceeds 500ms. But the treatment may have already had its effect at that time or later, while HCQ remained in the bloodstream.
This study has no control group. It provides no information on whether QTc prolongation was caused by the disease or the therapy.
FDA Warning
(FDA WARNING, 2020), issued on April 24, piggybacks on the COVID-19 Panel Guidelines. It says
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine can cause abnormal heart rhythms such as QT interval prolongation and a dangerously rapid heart rate called ventricular tachycardia.
This statement is confused, and probably not true about hydroxychloroquine. See below.
Be aware that there are no proven treatments for COVID-19 …
I think that HCQ+AZ is a proven treatment for COVID-19. There is a difference between proven treatment and approved treatment. HCQ+AZ is not approved but proven, because many patients have been treated with this combination and have recovered.
We have reviewed case reports … concerning serious heart-related adverse events and death in patients with COVID-19 receiving hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, either alone or combined with azithromycin or other QT prolonging medicines. These adverse events were reported from the hospital and outpatient settings for treating or preventing COVID-19, and included QT interval prolongation, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, and in some cases death.
These are manifestations of COVID-19! See (Bansal, 2020) and (Wang, et al., 2020). The media hysteria played its role, too. The articles about the supposed dangers of HCQ, with detailed description of the symptoms, triggered complaints even before the April 24 warning. And there are people who tried to self-medicate – in the situation when authorities make it difficult to obtain prescription for HCQ – and took the wrong drug or overdosed. Also, QT interval prolongation is not an event, but an early warning.
To help FDA track safety issues with medicines, we urge patients and health care professionals to report side effects involving hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine or other medicines to the FDA MedWatch program, using the information in the “Contact FDA” box at the bottom of the page.
Such an urging and advertisement guarantee that the FDA will receive mountains of complaints.
HCQ and AZ Safety
HCQ, CQ, and AZ
HCQ & CQ are two different drugs. HCQ is clearly superior to CQ. HCQ has already been selected over CQ. Discussing these two drugs as if they were co-equal in COVID-19 treatment is misleading and a sign of bad faith.
HCQ and AZ are some of the most widely prescribed drugs and have been prescribed for decades. HCQ is as safe as a prescription drug can be. AZ is an antibiotic, and it is as safe as an antibiotic can be.
Because these drugs have been prescribed so widely, their adverse effects have been studied. A few adverse events associated with them have been reported. Combining these few anecdotal cases, some medical researchers have raised some concern, as a precaution. Doctors understand this. Statisticians understand this. But unscrupulous media uses this information to mislead the naĂŻve public and even public figures
Remdisivir is the opposite. It has been developed very recently and has been scarcely used. There is little information about its adverse effects. The corrupt news networks present this lack of evidence of adverse effects as evidence of the absence of adverse effects.
CredibleMeds
The leading objection against HCQ / HCQ+AZ is possible QTc prolongation. Most professionals refer to (CredibleMeds.org, 2020) which puts both HCQ and AZ in the category of Known Risk of TdP (KR).
I think that HCQ was listed in that category by mistake. A review of the literature reveals only few anecdotal cases. Some of them are poisoning by large overdoses of HCQ. Then there are patients who were on HCQ for years, suddenly got sick and recovered when HCQ was withdrawn. While there are millions of people continuously taking HCQ, only a few cases of cardiac events have been reported. Even if HCQ was the cause of these rare cases, which is usually unknown, it is still statistically insignificant. It is much safer than driving. Other antivirals are known to cause QTc prolongation too but are not being pulled from practice. In the case of HCQ, it seems that a precaution principle has prevailed over statistical reasoning and common sense.
AZ is in the KR category, just like many other antibiotics, including Erythromycin. I have never heard of patients requiring QTc monitoring, when taking Erythromycin.
Attention of the Trump Derangement Syndrome crowd: many widely used psycho-active drugs are also listed in the KR category. That includes anti-psychotic Haloperidol, anti-depressants Escitalopram (Cipralex, Lexapro) and Citalopram (Celexa).
American College of Cardiology
The most reliable source of information about arrhythmia risks is the American College of Cardiology. (Simpson, 2020) in the Cardiology Magazine:
Chloroquine, and its more contemporary derivative hydroxychloroquine, have remained in clinical use for more than a half-century as an effective therapy for treatment of some malarias, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis. … Despite these suggestive findings, several hundred million courses of chloroquine have been used worldwide making it one of the most widely used drugs in history, without reports of arrhythmic death under World Health Organization surveillance.
HCQ is even milder than CQ.
Azithromycin, a frequently used macrolide antibiotics lacks strong pharmacodynamic evidence of iKr inhibition [associated with QT prolongation]. Epidemiologic studies have estimated an excess of 47 cardiovascular deaths which are presumed arrhythmic per 1 million completed courses, although recent studies suggest this may be overestimated.
In other words, after over 50 years of effective use, HCQ and AZ have proven their safety and efficacy. There is no reason for fear, except the fear itself. But some people might be vulnerable, so the article explains how to calculate an individual Risk Score for QTc prolongers. Individuals with higher Risk Score might need QTc monitoring. Also, the authors suggest avoiding other QTc prolonging medications in the time of HCQ+AZ treatment.
The cardiologists who wrote this article did not dismiss the concern. They explained the science pertaining to it and suggest proper mitigation measures.
Other literature also suggests low risk of HCQ and AZ. (Prutkin, 2020):
Limited data on hydroxychloroquine suggest it has a low risk of causing TdP, based on its use for rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and antimalarial therapy. … For these medications [HCQ and AZ], their time window of use is short duration, which is another reason the risk of TdP may be lower
HCQ and AZ have other known contra-indications, but they are out of the scope here.
COVID-19 caused Arrhythmia
Many studies show that COVID-19 causes heart arrhythmia. Cardiac arrest, not directly caused by respiratory damage, is one of the leading direct causes of COVID-19 deaths.
(Bansal, 2020) is a review. It finds that
COVID-19 is primarily a respiratory illness but cardiovascular involvement can occur through several mechanisms.
Acute cardiac injury is the most reported cardiovascular abnormality in COVID-19, with average incidence 8-12%
Both tachy- and brady-arrhythmias are known to occur in COVID-19. A study describing clinical profile and outcomes in 138 Chinese patients with COVID-19 reported 16.7% incidence of arrhythmia. The incidence was much higher (44.4%) in those requiring ICU admission …
It also notes that CoV2 virus might cause cardiac injury directly or indirectly. The possibility of a treatment impact is mentioned as a less likely one.
(Wang, et al., 2020) finds that 44% of the patients transferred to ICU developed arrhythmia. None of them received HCQ or CQ. Most of the patients received an unrelated anti-viral and an antibiotic. Only in 18% of the patients the antibiotic was AZ. At least some of the patients developed an arrhythmia before the treatment.
(Hawryluk, 2020):
Doctors have found that the infection can mimic a heart attack. They have taken patients to the cardiac catheterization lab to clear a suspected blockage, only to find the patient wasn’t really experiencing a heart attack but had COVID-19.
Thus, the hypothesis that CVOID-19 patients experience QTc prolongation and arrhythmia because of the disease, rather than due to HCQ+AZ treatment, is well founded. AZ may increase the odds of QTc prolongation in COVID-19 patients, who would otherwise die from cardiac arrest or multiple organs failure.
The media and professional publications report a sharp increase of mortality from cardiac arrest at home in the last few weeks. Some of these cases are known to be COVID-19, but most of them are not tested. Could many of them be happening due to the cardiac damage caused by COVID-19? Can the cardiac impact of COVID-19 be aggravated by strong QTc prolongers that many people take regularly? There are countless variables confounding this statistic. There is an especially sharp increase in home cardiac arrests in New York, which is usually explained by people’s reluctance to call an ambulance or ER.
(Kochi, 2020) provides in-depth explanation of the cardiac effects of respiratory infections and interaction with QTc prolongation medications.
If you take the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) as part of your treatment for lupus or rheumatoid arthritis (RA), you may be getting cardiovascular protection as an added bonus.
The article is based on (Jorge, 2019). These findings might be applicable only to long term taking of HCQ, not a 5-day course for COVID-19, but the same can be said about the alleged negative cardiac effects.
Articles/Studies criticizing HCQ
Listed here are several other papers, influential in the media, but not in the science. These papers span the range from erroneous to … non-existent.
Magagnoli et al.
(Magagnoli, 2020) is a not peer-reviewed pre-print. It makes a retrospective statistical comparison of the outcome in COVID-19 patients, who received HCQ or HCQ+AZ treatment prior to April 11, in Veterans Affairs hospitals. In the Abstract, it claims that a larger percentage of HCQ treated patients died compared to untreated patients. This ignores the fact that HCQ or HCQ+AZ treatment was given only in the most desperate cases, frequently as compassionate care. Deep inside of the manuscript, it does acknowledge that initial conditions of the HCQ and HCQ+AZ groups was much worse than those of the untreated group, but then ignores it
The original version (archived) of the “study” was published on April 21. It received crushing criticism in the comments and was replaced with another one on April 23, hiding those comments. Casting even further doubt on the credibility of this study, one of the authors disclosed Gilead funding for another research. This work was funded by a NIH grant.
Despite its multiple flaws, lack of peer review, and obscurity of the authors, this pre-print immediately received wall-to-wall media coverage. Given these circumstances, this work looks like a criminal fraud, rather than a scientific one.
Tang et al.
(Tang, 2020) is a not peer-reviewed pre-print. It reports results of a clinical trial in China, in which HCQ was given to patients 16-17 days after onset of the disease. This is too late for an anti-viral to work. Thus, this study describes the incorrect use of HCQ, rather than efficacy or safety of the drug. From the comments:
With an average delay of 16 days from symptom onset to enrollment and treatment in this trial, those patients are pretty much past the viral phase of the disease, where an antiviral treatment would have the most value, and are well on their way to pneumonia and a cytokine storm problem, which is ultimately what kills.
Once again, despite its obvious errors, the study was widely covered, including the New York Times and LA Times. Neither headline nor article addresses the obvious lateness of the drug’s application.
Mahevas et al.
(Mahevas, 2020) is another not peer-reviewed pre-print. Didier Raoult and his colleagues replied to it with a bluntness, rare in scientific journals: Scientific fraud to demonstrate the lack of efficacy of hydroxychloroquine compared to placebo in a non-randomized retrospective cohort of patients with Covid: Response to MAHEVAS et al. , MedRxiv, 2020. (Brouqui, et al., 2020). (Mahevas, 2020) also gathered many negative comments on MedRxiv.
Oral Statements of Holtgrave & Cuomo
A study of 600 patients at 22 hospitals in New York is being conducted by the University at Albany School of Public Health under the management of dean David Holtgrave. Although the study was not finished, Mr. Holtgrave already announced that the results are negative: “We don’t see a statistically significant difference between patients who took the drugs [HCQ, HCQ+AZ] and those who did not,” according to CNN. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo referred to the results as neither positive nor negative, per CNN and ABC.
No paper, or even pre-print, reporting these results, has been published, as of April 29 (searches on Google Scholar, PubMed, and medRxiv were conducted for Holtgrave hydroxychloroquine; Holtgrave COVID-19).
New York and other “resistance” states make patients jump through hoops to obtain HCQ. As an anti-viral, it should be taken as soon as possible. Dr. Vladimir Zelenko explained that in his letter, which is worth reading in its entirety:
It is essential to start treatment against Covid-19 immediately upon clinical suspicion of infection and not to wait for confirmatory testing. There is a very narrow window of opportunity to eliminate the virus before pulmonary complications begin. The waiting to treat is the essence of the problem.
He refers to patients in the high-risk category – older than 60, having certain health conditions, or shortness of breath. The resistance states established onerous requirements that delay HCQ treatment for days. This sharply lowers the efficiency of the treatment, and possibly increases TdP risks. The mixed results, promised by Mr. Holtgrave, might be caused by this delay.
Russia
On March 28, Russia announced a COVID-19 treatment based on Mefloquine. Mefloquine, invented in the US in 1970s, is another anti-malaria drug, similar to HCQ. In the West, Mefloquine was withdrawn from use after a controversy about its long-term effects. Russia might also use HCQ. From a Russian brochure (Nikiforov, 2020):
These drugs have a comprehensive negative effect on the coronavirus. It may take years of scientific experimentation to understand how and what exactly they affect. Now the fact of a positive effect has been established, and the drugs should and will be used.
The mechanisms of HCQ and HCQ+AZ action are explained (Hache & Raoult, 2020).
WHO
On March 27, WHO erected another roadblock to treating COVID-19 patients with HCQ. WHO stated that HCQ was not only insufficiently tested (which was true at that time), but that it was considered for COVID-19 at much higher doses than for malaria.
In the context of the COVID-19 response, the dosage and treatment schedules for chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine that are currently under consideration do not reflect those used for treating patients with malaria. The ingestion of high doses of these medicines may be associated with adverse or seriously adverse health outcomes.
This is dangerous misinformation. HCQ dosage for COVID-19 is the same or lower than for malaria (Drugs.com, 2019). WHO was aware of this, because it was already conducting clinical trials including HCQ and a number of other Big Pharma drugs. Yet, as of April 29, this paragraph still appears there. This act alone justifies not only defunding but ignoring WHO.
Google and Facebook adhered to WHO on everything related to COVID-19. Together with Twitter, they purged information favorable to HCQ. These is outrageous behavior for telecommunications and computational services providers.
Remarks
It seems that the main contra-indication for HCQ treatment of COVID-19 is that no treatment is needed for healthy individuals below age 50.
Persons in the President’s circle were claiming that HCQ / HCQ+AZ are unproven treatments. That might have been true a month ago, but not now. These drugs are proven by practice and by failure of its opponents to disprove their efficacy and relative safety.
The Guidelines are accompanied by a financial disclosure of the panel members. Weirdly, this disclosure covers a period of 11 months: May 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020. The latest three weeks were excluded for some reason. Nevertheless, 9 out of 50 members of the panel disclosed financial ties to Gilead. Gilead’s Remdesivir is an inferior competitor to HCQ – more expensive, almost untested, and less efficient (as far as the little testing with it has shown). HCQ is a generic drug with low profit margin. Gilead Sciences directly participates in WHO trials of Remdesivir as a COVID-19 treatment.
HCQ / HCQ+AZ are prescribed by a doctor. They are not OTC and should not be used for self-medication.
HCQ+AZ is the most common treatment. HCQ acts on its own but is much more effective with Zinc; AZ is an antibiotic and a source of Zinc. See Dr. Zelenko’s regimen is HCQ+AZ+Zinc.
Americas Frontline Doctors know Hydroxychloroquine Saves Lives and they want you to know the TRUTH!
The cure is hydroxychloroquine associated with azithromycin and ZITHROMAX (azithromycin) in the treatment of COVID-19 and its potential effectiveness in the early impairment of contagiousness.
Zithromax and hydroxychloroquine are the cure for the corona virus/covid-19.
These 2 drugs must be taken when you first get symptoms of the covid-19.
The Virology Journal - the official publication of Dr. Fauci’s National Institutes of Health
- published what is now a blockbuster article on August 22, 2005, under the heading - get ready for this - “Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread.”
So HCQ functions as both a cure and a vaccine. In other words, it’s a wonder drug for coronavirus. Said Dr. Fauci’s NIH in 2005, “concentrations of 10 ÎĽM completely abolished SARS-CoV infection.” Fauci’s researchers add, “chloroquine can effectively reduce the establishment of infection and spread of SARS-CoV.”
The government and coroprations who are now and in the future are making money from the induced corona pandemic don't want you to know the truth about the cure for covid-19.
The covid-19 virus is also being used as a political weapon by the communist democrats.
The result is panic, destruction of the US economy and the needless deaths of thousands via the covid-19 virus because the government, mass media, social media are lying about the cure for the corna virus.
President Trump has been telling the American public about the cure for the covid-19.
Americas Frontline Doctors and others have been telling the American public about the cure but twitter, facebook and other social media platforms have removed much of this live saving information and labled it as not true when in fact Hydroxychloroquine Saves Lives and has been proven to save lives when it is taken at the onset of the covid-19 infection.
Hydroxychloroquine has been shown to save lives wherever it is used
