The First Tell: Senator Ron Johnson on What Broke the COVID Narrative | Ep 1

Published | Video Starts at 34:20

Very revealing. It's nine hours. It's a pretty interesting nine hours, quite honestly. But in that interview, and this is what Bobby Kennedy was revealing, we don't adequately test these things. We have very underpowered a couple hundred kids. We track adverse events for sometimes as little as a week, probably most 30 days or something. We test them against a previous vaccine. And the analogy I always use, it's like, well, we want to test the safety of hemlock, so let's test it against, oh, I don't know, how about arsenic? (34:20–34:31)

CLAIM
