BEHIND THE SCENES

I am back - actually never exactly been away. I found out on the weekend that my jury duty had been postponed or maybe will be cancelled - but since all arrangements had been made to take time off, I took time off. Strange - every day seemed like Sunday. Many thanks to 'Buzz' for sitting in the engineer's chair and occasionally adding his touch to the proceedings. It ain't as easy as it looks, i.e., sounds. Anyway, I was able to sleep during the day without being thrown in jail for contempt of court and got to hear most of this fabulous radio show!!

12-1 The Gary Null Show – Including an Update on Vaccine bills in NY State legislature and Action to take

John Gilmore is the Executive Director of the Autism Action Network, a national, not-profit, grassroots advocacy organization that influences legislation and public policy on a wide range of issues impacting the autism community, including access to healthcare, health insurance reform, special education, vaccine rights and civil rights of the disabled. His organization works at the state, federal and sometimes local level to influence the lives of people with autism and their families. Founded as A-CHAMP in 2005, initial efforts focused on the partially successful campaign to ban mercury as an ingredient in vaccines. Mr. Gilmore has a Master’s Degree in Public Policy from the Graduate School of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley. He lives in Long Beach, NY with his wife and two teenage sons, one who was vaccine injured as an infant and is diagnosed with autism. For further information, John’s organization’s website is AutismActionNetwork.org and on Facebook.

1-2 Gary Null Progressive Commentary Hour

Death By Medicine, Revisited

(Introduction by Gary Null and Helen Buyniski)


By any measure, we are in the worst health crisis in American history. Out of a population of 335 million people, two thirds of us – adults and children both – are suffering from a wide range of health conditions, the majority of which are preventable. Our first effort at explaining how serious the conditions were and indeed to verify that they were real using only the mainstream medical community and the government’s official figures took several years with a group of highly qualified board certified physicians and academics with PhDs with deep experience in research scholarship.

Up until that point, no one had compiled all injuries and fatalities occurring as a result of medical treatment. The best that had been done was by Dr. Lucian Leape, a professor from Harvard who had written a groundbreaking report that had gone virtually unchallenged and unreported in the medical press. Later, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) would publish an article by Dr. Barbara Starfield showing that iatrogenesis was the third leading cause of death. Dr. Martin Makary reached the same conclusions over a decade later, publishing his findings in the British Medical Journal (BMJ). However, it was surprising and disheartening to find that with all the medical and scientific research expertise at these researchers’ disposal, they left out several important causes of death from their statistics. This showed gross flaws in their research methodology.

Our report was the most comprehensive to date published in the US. Once completed, we sent it for feedback and comment to more than 7,000 scientific publications, health reporters, and federal agencies. Not one single response was received. How is this even possible? We expected legitimate challenges and corrections; even admonitions would have been welcome. Instead, we got dead silence. Why?

Years have passed, and the state of American health has only worsened. The latest official reports show more heart attacks, more strokes, obesity, and diabetes including in children. There is more dementia, Alzheimer’s, and cancer than ever before. And yet we spent more on healthcare in 2017 than we’ve ever spent – $3.5 trillion, 17.9 percent of the nation’s GDP, and a number that is on track to further increase in 2018.1 So now we’re perplexed – if we tell people that we have the best healthcare system in the world, with the latest technology, the most pharmaceuticals and medical procedures, state of the art hospitals, and special treatment centers, we should have a population that is far more robust and healthy – but just the opposite is the case.

Then it occurred to us that we were also missing a very important piece of this puzzle. Why are we not preventing disease? How much is all this disease actually costing the patient, corporations, and society? The figures are both staggering and heartbreaking, as there is no discussion of this. We only become invested in a person after they are sick. We have only focused as a society on how to alleviate the symptoms of that person’s illness. When we compare our healthcare program and state of health and longevity with other developed nations, we are near dead last. How is this possible? Those individuals who’ve brought these dire statistics to our attention (Makary, Starfield, Leape, etc) have initiated no wider call for action. Nothing has happened. They too have been shouting into the void. This is a dialogue we desperately need. Our new article expands on the first to include a discussion on iatrogenesis, its causes, prevention, and most importantly how to resolve in part or whole all of these problems...

Martin L. Pall, Ph.D.

“EMF Health Effects”

MARTIN L. PALL, Ph.D. has a B.A. degree in Physics, Johns Hopkins University, Phi Beta Kappa with Honors, 1962; graduated with 180 semester hours of credit in 4 years. Ph.D. degree in Biochemistry and Genetics, Caltech, 1968. Asst. Prof. Reed College, 1967-72. Asst., Assoc., and Full Professor, Genetics and Cell Biology and Biochemistry/Biophysics, later Professor of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences, Washington State University, 1972-2008. Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences, Washington State University, 2008. Received 9 international honors for research in Environmental Medicine. Author of 102 professional publications.



Research since 1998 focused on mechanisms of chronic disease; oxidative/nitrosative stress; inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, other mechanisms; environmental stressors causing chronic disease; regulatory systems acting to prevent chronic disease; chemicals acting to trigger chronic disease via excessive NMDA activity; mechanism of action of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) via activation of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs).



Pall has 8 publications on the EMF VGGC mechanism. The first of these, published in 2013 was placed on the Global Medical Discovery Website as one of the most important medical papers of 2013. It has been cited 180 times (as of August 2018). These 8 papers collectively show that: 1. Most non-thermal microwave frequency EMF effects are produced by EMF activation of the VGCCs. 2. A large number of effects are produced by such EMF exposures including: Many reproductive effects; many neurological/neuropsychiatric effects; attacks on the DNA of our cells; oxidative stress/free radical damage; increased apoptotic cell death; widespread endocrine (hormonal) effects; excessive intracellular calcium and cancer. 3. Each of these effects and in addition six other probable effects can be explained as being due to VGCC activation. In my 2018 cancer. 4. In my 2018 EMF-cancer paper, I discussed 15 distinct mechanisms by which VGCC activation causes cancer initiation, promotion and progression. 5. I have extraordinary concerns about 5G which are impossible to outline, so I will not try to outline them here.

12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1068 - Socialists for Trump and Hitler (The "Assistance")", #8

(Concluding mini-series)



We have wondered about the ascent of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a political animal. We wondered whether she might be a "ringer," elevated and promoted by the far right and, perhaps, elements of the CIA, because she is ABSOLUTELY PERFECT from their standpoint. In fact, she is straight from the Amazon (ahem) mail order catalog: an outspoken Latina who fits neatly into the anti-Latin bigotry institutionalized in Trump's GOP, brands as a socialist (perfect for the Karl Roves and Trumps of this world), has stated her intention to work against Democratic incumbents with whose policy positions she disagrees, and demonstrated a lack of economic sophistication in her comments about Amazon's failed New York City Deal and in the presentation of the Green New Deal.



The ascent of AOC was effected in large measure by two overlapping organizations-Justice Democrats and Brand New Congress-both co-founded by Saikat Chakrabarti, and Indian-American, Harvard-educated, Wall Street and Silicon Valley multi-millionaire, and fan of major Axis collaborator Subhas Chandra Bose. Brand New Congress was co-founded by a University of Pennsylvania-educated Turkish American, Cenk Uygur, who has a history of denying the Turkish genocide against the Armenians, as we shall see. (Like Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania is an Ivy League School.)



The radical Democratic newcomers are precipitating a war within the Democratic Party, ignoring the fact that the Democrats retook Congress as a result of victories by moderate candidates in districts taken by Trump in 2016...



Chakrabarti is fundamental to the rise of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Chakrabarti was AOC's campaign manager and is her current chief of staff. Both Justice Democrats and Brand New Congress donated a total of $900,000 to a consulting firm also headed by Chakrabarti. Until recently, AOC sat on the board of one of them.



In a recent twitter video post defending AOC's mercurial social media activity, Chakrabartiappeared with a T-Shirt featuring a picture of Subhas Chandra Bose, an Indian nationalist who allied himself with both Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. He has a habit of wearing Subhas Chandra Bose garb...

1-2 Aaron Gloantz, “How America Lost Iraq”

Program #GLAA001. Recorded in Houston, TX.

In Iraq, most of the corporate journalists, when they venture outside their heavily guarded hotels, travel with U.S. troops and base their stories on what the military tells them. Not so Aaron Glantz, who went to Iraq totally un-embedded. And what he learned initially was not what he had expected. Most Iraqis welcomed the Americans and patiently accepted the hardship and destruction as a final sacrifice on their way to freedom. But as the occupation dragged on, and as living conditions and the security situation steadily worsened, the Americans were no longer viewed as liberators, but as oppressors. Glantz’s eyewitness account gives insight into what is fueling the insurgency in Iraq. From Alternative Radio, 1 (800) 444-1977,www.alternativeradio.org



Aaron Glantz, a reporter for Pacifica Radio, has been to Iraq many times. He is the author of How America Lost Iraq.
