D. L. Gardner: White House Blames Misinformation for Low Vaccination Rates

 Cubans have begun a revolution for freedom from communist tyranny. They are marching and protesting in the streets waving Cuban and American flags, and begging US to help them gain their independence. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas warned that Haitians or Cubans who come to America by sea “will be returned.” 


Meanwhile, Mayorkas continues to insist that our Southern border “is closed,” while hundreds of thousands of migrants from around the world stream across the closed border to the extent more than one million have crossed this fiscal year. At the rate migrants are coming, America will see more than 2 million migrants enter this year. 


Escalating violent crime rates continue to ravage cities across America. The “Defund the Police” movement is alive and well, and being cheered on by representatives in Congress. Critical Race Theory (CRT) is dividing parents, teachers, and children into racial and political identity groups in the name of ending racism. Everybody in the whole country appears to be mad about some things and at some bodies. 


From January to the middle of May, fourteen states enacted 22 new voting laws. In Philadelphia last week President Biden claimed, “We are facing the most significant test of our democracy since the Civil War. That’s not hyperbole — since the Civil War.” Are new voting laws tantamount to the Civil War?


But, the BIG news out of the White House last week was misinformation about COVID on social media. In fact, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki earned the title of Miss Information with some of her comments about monitoring and correcting Facebook and other social media accounts that spread misinformation about COVID, particularly about vaccines. 


Not to be undone by his press secretary, President Biden himself made comments about “trusted” people going door-to-door to increase vaccination rates, and told a reporter that social media was “killing people” with misinformation. 


More than 34 million Americans have contracted Covid-19, and well over 33 million recovered. Should they be forced to take a vaccine? How many have died after taking the vaccine? How many have encountered adverse reactions after taking the vaccine?


Last year about this time and through the end of the year, the LEFT relentlessly attacked the notion of producing a safe vaccine that could help end the pandemic. The LEFT didn’t get onboard with the vaccine until after President Biden was inaugurated. Why? Was it a question of science?


No one doubts, or should doubt that social media is full of misinformation. That is not news. The real news is the White House’s threats to control what its current residents consider to be misinformation. Let’s try an experiment: What if President Trump had won? Would some still refuse to take the vaccine? Would the LEFT enthusiastically encourage everyone to take the vaccine? 


Misinformation is not the problem. Politics is the problem. Politics says the border is closed. Politics says migrants fleeing from Haiti or Cuba will be returned to their failed states. Politics says police are making violent crime rates soar. Politics says we can end racism by separating people by race. Politics says new voting laws are Jim Crow laws. Politics says we will tell you what the truth is and censor what anyone else says.


Maybe misinformation is the problem? Where is all of this misinformation coming from?

Lowest vaccine rates are among African Americans and Hispanics.
Liberal Democrats like to blame “bubba” but they are really spewing their venom toward people of color. Which as we all know, democrats are the most racist people in the world.

There is literally 20 million more registered democrat voters than republicans so they are the super majority of the unvaxxed in this country.

Misinformation here meaning “people who did even 15 minutes of research, read what Klaus Schwab said and paid attention to all the pressure and trickery the government and media have attempted in order to get shots in arms.”

Here in Mississippi the rate is 35% across the board, please disregard anyone throwing race into the discussion .

From the same government that said you didn’t need to wear a mask at first and then you said you did. They said China wasn’t to blame and then they said it was likely from China. The same govt that says not to gather in large groups and then this weekend they are gathering in large group to celebrate Obama’s birthday. Morons.

Just say no to misinformation!!!

Don’t pay attention to the CDC/FDA’s VAERS adverse vaccine reports (now over 500,000+ including 12,000+ deaths) just in the last 6 months or so of vaccine rollouts, an unprecedented spike in the system’s thirty year history.
https://www.openvaers.com/covid-data

Don’t pay attention to people suffering adverse events from the shots and their stories of pain, frustration, injury, illness, and endless doctors visits.
https://www.c19vaxreactions.com/
https://www.reddit.com/r/CovidVaccinated/

Don’t pay attention to Dr. Zelenko, who successfully treated over 6,000+ Covid patients. Don’t pay attention to Dr. Michael Yeadon, former Pfizer VP, Dr. Richard Malone, the INVENTOR of mRNA vaccines, or what Luc Montagnier, a French virologist and recipient of the 2008 Nobel Prize in medicine for his discovery of HIV has to say about the Covid vaccines. Their lives have been ruined for them to dare to speak out.

Ignore all the “misinformation” that has been blackballed and shunned to the far corners of the internet and trust the media, trust the news, trust Fauci, and trust the Facebook fact checkers. https://www.bitchute.com/video/mXEvAPKHjeQ8/

Also, just a heads up, you might want to use DuckDuckGo and Bitchute for videos if you want to research. Google will hide all the “misinformation” it doesn’t want you to worry yourself with.

Please quit acting like this virus has some easy solution. If you need the government to tell you what to do, then you are part of the problem.
I’m fully vaccinated, but that was a personal decision and should remain that way. As many times as the 411 about this thing has changed coming from the crazy people in charge, it is obvious to anyone that there really is no answer. Maybe we should just accept that this is Gods wrath and a way to cleanse the planet. The conspiracy minded folks have been waiting on population control measures, so let them run with that. Countries in Europe are rioting (as they should) about covid health passes. I have accepted that if I don’t die after I contract it, I will indeed at least come into contact with it. You should, too. Time to be honest with yourselves.

The government has nothing to do with President Obama’s birthday party. Additionally you either had to have a negative test or be vaccinated to attend.
People are dying and we have allowed this to be political. Either get the shot or take all necessary precautions including limiting your interaction with others outside your household and wearing a mask when you do.
It’s that simple no one can force you to do either, it’s just the right thing to do.

"...read what Klaus Schwab said..."

Klaus Schwab, you say? What did he say?

(Note to the 'fish - please, prettyplease, approve at least one reply, if any, enlightening loyal JJ readers, especially JJ smarta...er,
carefully-considered commenters, as to what Schwab supposedly "said." SUNday isn't FUNday without...well, you know.)

Do you know who from the Biden administration attended? Sure sounds like you don’t.

DL: over 615,000 Americans have died from this disease. 4.25M worldwide. Please stop suggesting this is some easily recoverable disease that we should just do nothing about. Act like a adult.

The same people in the white house now were saying they would not take the Trump vaccine when Trump was still in office. They didn't trust it or him. So who started all this misinformation?

Anonymous said...

@7:13. Don't rely on any hearsay about Klaus Schwab. Read what he wrote. Read for yourself. Titles: The Fourth Industrial Revolution, Shaping The Fourth Industrial Revolution and COVID-19: The Great Reset. It's not like the Great Reset Plan is hidden or anything.

Barely 100,000 have died due to Covid, and that number is debatable. 600,000+ people have died adjacent to Covid, not caused by. Quit spreading misinformation.

450,000 of those that died were over the age of 65. That’s why it was so important for that group to have access to a risky gene therapy shot.

In the course of secret research on virus transmission CDC operatives and their Chinese surrogates lost control of a virulent strain. They weren't even in the development stages of an effective vaccine, but they do have some untested conventional vaccine research that they can modify to provide a stop-gap measure which MIGHT satisfy the cry for immediate relief. The experimental vaccines can be observed and supplemented as needed. In the meantime the media can be used to create enough fear and division that the survivors will hardly notice the emergence of a new political-medical regime dominating our lives and economy. In a way, the vaccine IS a placebo.

What will be the argument, once the FDA gives full Approval ?

@7:13 If you read Klaus Schwabs's three most recent titles, Patrick Wood's two excellent books, Technocracy Rising and Technocracy: The Hard Road To World Order and Brzezinski's Between Two Ages you'll understand The Great Reset from it's beginnings until the present pretty well.

I live in a rural county of Mississippi. The vaccination rate for blacks is 3 to 4 times that of the white anti-vax Trumpers.

@4:45: I am not interested in your toxic schizo manifestos. No sane person wants to drink share your poisoned cup.
I am young and successful. I travel the globe for my career. Americans don’t deserve to have a better standard of living just for being born in America. Maybe if you were educated instead of poor, you might be living the good life too. Americans will either compete or be left behind.

So you are admitting that you have no proof. Got it.

I remember when candidate Joe said he would not take the Covid Vaccine that was rushed to market by then President Trump. Right after Biden was elected the vaccine was "safe and effective."

Can't understand why anyone wouldn't blindly trust the government.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
