$28,303 a year for family health insurance. Up 387% since 1999. And after paying that, families still face deductibles, copays, prior authorizations, and a 7-minute visit with a doctor who's staring at a screen. You're not paying for care. You're paying for the middlemen.
BREAKING: The average cost of a family’s annual health insurance premium in the US is up +$1,303 YoY, or +5%, to a record $28,303.
This marks the 4th consecutive annual increase of at least +$1,300.
Over this period, the average annual premium for family coverage has surged +$5,884, or +26%.
To put this into perspective, CPI inflation has risen +13% over the same period, or half as much.
Since 1999, the average health insurance premium for a family has soared +$22,494, or +387%.
This represents an average annual growth rate of +6.1%, well above CPI inflation at +2.6% over the same period.
Health insurance has never been more expensive.

New York fined three Amish schools $118,000 for letting 59 unvaccinated children attend class. That was one day.
The law allows $2,000 per child, per day.
45 states and DC still allow religious exemptions. New York ended its in 2019.
When the choice is comply or leave the state, that isn't consent.
Aaron Siri just revealed the real reason why New York launched a massive legal attack on unvaccinated Amish communities.
“These kids are healthy.”
“They don’t suffer from any of the chronic diseases that plague American children.”
“If this was about health, New York State should be looking at these kids as models and asking, why are they healthier?”
“Why do these… Amish children not suffer from the chronic health conditions that are plaguing over 40% [of children] according to the CDC?”
“Some data reflects even higher.”
“This is up from under 10% of kids having a chronic health condition in America in the early ’80s.”
“What’s changed?”
“Maybe they should take a look at this community instead of trying to force upon them the same type of lifestyle that… has resulted in that increase.”

Survey: Confidence Continues to Plummet for COVID Shot Safety During Pregnancy
A new national survey reveals a sharp drop in those who believe the mRNA shot is safe for pregnant women.
FULL STATEMENT: WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Independent Medical Alliance (IMA), a national coalition of independent physicians, researchers, and clinicians, pointed to a new national survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation (@KFF) that shows trust in the COVID shot safety for pregnant women has plummeted, with only 39% of adults now saying they are confident COVID-19 shots are safe for people who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant, down from 53% in May 2022.
"Pregnant women were told over and over again by the CDC and others that this shot was safe, when in fact, it wasn’t safe at all,” said Independent Medical Alliance Senior Fellow Dr. Kimberly Biss (@docbiss), OB-GYN. “And even now, because of court ordered confusion, the CDC (@CDCgov) website is still recommending the shot for all adults, despite @FDA only approving the shot for those over age 65 and high-risk young people.”
Dr. Anthony Fauci’s own diaries show that in late January 2021 he warned CDC Director Walensky and Surgeon General Murthy about the possibility that the second mRNA shot could cause miscarriages in pregnant women. Fauci wrote, “I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be aware of. Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.” Yet just days later, Fauci told the Journal of the American Medical Association (@JAMA_current) there were “no red flags” regarding pregnant women. In April of 2021, Walensky said in a @WhiteHouse briefing that there were “no safety concerns” for pregnant women. And throughout the year, Murthy delivered speeches urging pregnant women to get the vaccine or be at “risk of bad outcomes.”
"This is what happens when government health officials hide known data and instead push an industry-driven narrative that isn’t true,” continued Dr. Biss. “It will take a long while for these institutions to rebuild trust among the American people.”
The drop in safety confidence for the COVID shot crosses party lines. KFF found confidence fell 17 points among Democrats and 15 points among Republicans since 2022. Among women ages 18 to 49, it fell from 48% to 37%.
KFF surveyed 1,328 U.S. adults online and by phone Sept. 16–21, 2026. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points for the full sample. The 2022 comparison is from KFF's Health Tracking Poll conducted May 10–19, 2022.

A TSA supervisor cleared grandfather Kermit Warren to fly with $28,000 in his bag. Then the DEA ROBBED him of every dollar.
His crime? Nothing.
The government calls it “civil forfeiture.” Everyone else calls it theft.
Kermit Warren flew to Ohio to buy a truck so he and his son could haul scrap metal for a living after losing their jobs during COVID.
The truck was too big for what they needed, so they headed home with the cash.
At the airport, he told TSA exactly what was in his bag. A supervisor said he could travel with it and waved him through security.
Then the DEA showed up.
Warren tried to show the agents the truck he’d flown in to buy. He offered to call the seller. They weren’t interested.
“We think y’all are up here doing something illegal.”
That’s it. That’s the evidence. A man’s life savings, gone on a hunch — and they wouldn’t even let him make a phone call to prove them wrong.
WARREN: “When they seized my life savings, every penny that I’ve worked for, every honest dollar that I earned over the last 25–30 years, it made me feel like I was the dirt on the ground.”
CONTEXT: Fortunately, the government didn’t get away with this one. After roughly a year without his savings, federal prosecutors agreed to return all $28,180 to Kermit Warren and dismissed the case.
Adults you’re next…
I'm a Board Certified anesthesiologist and have been in practice for 24 years. I just learned that the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where I trained has launched a program to increase flu vaccine uptake among children by vaccinating them while under anesthesia.
The program is called "Close your Eyes. We'll Immunize"
This is stunningly irresponsible. Here's why:
Anesthetists are extremely risk avoidant and endeavor to minimize patient exposure to anything which carries potential side effects. This is particularly true of pediatric patients who very often have never been exposed to anesthetic medications. We simply cannot know how an individual child will respond to these drugs for the first time.
Every single medication we administer during an operation can potentially trigger untoward or allergic responses. When this occurs our primary responsibility is to stabilize the patient. Our secondary responsibility is to identify the offending agent. There is absolutely no justification of introducing another agent, in this case a flu vaccine, which carries a risk of harm and contributes nothing to the success of the operation.
Some of the more common side effects of flu vaccines are fever (11-16%) and less commonly, a rash (1%). There is also an non-zero risk of severe allergic reactions and high-grade fevers which can develop over the course of minutes.
What if a child under anesthesia receives a vaccine and develops a rash and/or fever? Is it from the antibiotic that the surgeon requested? Is it from the narcotic? The anxiolytic? The barbiturate?
Anesthetic gases can also (rarely) trigger a life threatening response called Malignant Hyperthermia which commonly presents as a high fever. Without subsequent testing we cannot know which agent was responsible. Most commonly the testing is never done and the child’s record will forever reflect the possibility that some or all of the drugs which were used are responsible for their reaction. This makes future anesthetic care significantly more challenging and will require the use of alternatives which may not be necessary.
Advocating for a flu vaccine while a child is anesthetized reflects the pervasive yet inaccurate attitude among the medical establishment that vaccines are perfectly safe. I simply cannot believe that my mentors would have ever supported this initiative when I was a resident there. Close your eyes indeed.
Is it me or did all the sports commentators in the US get the same memo to slam the Rays? Clearly many athletes in many sports celebrate their successes in front of the fans. 🤷♀️ @JPPetersonshow
Everything that is wrong with professional sports in one gratuitous, narcissistic, self-congratulatory, me-first celebration. So difficult to root for this. But “playing the game the right way” went the way of the dodo bird long ago. Peep the replies where “shut up, old man” serve as the counter rebuttal. 😏
Been here and it is magical
Truth
No one can serve more than one master.
Physicians are employed by hospital systems.
Paid by third parties.
And ultimately responsible to their patients.
Three competing interests.
Only one should determine the medical decisions we make.
The patient.
We need to remove the other two from the physician-patient relationship.

It’s #FFF and I’m remembering when Tiny Tony experimented on Foster children in NYC, saying they had HIV using bogus PCR, and gave them AZT, making them sicker and sicker. When they fought taking the drug that they knew made them sick, he had gastric tubes inserted and administered the drug that way. Even worse, the once honest @BBC who accurately depicted what went on, has since backpedaled, apologizing for exposing everything as the despicable propaganda machine they are.

#new "Fauci is a monster" according to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who says Dr. Anthony Fauci turned foster children into test subjects for toxic experimental AIDS drugs and did the same thing to pregnant women in Africa, so he could expand pharmaceutical market - aka make money.
#DC
RFK Jr.’s making the accusations in his 2021 book The Real Anthony Fauci
Kennedy is talking about the clinical trials that took place in New York City primarily between 1988 and 2001 at the Incarnation Children’s Center in Manhattan.
🔴NIAID, then directed by Fauci, funded many of the NIH-sponsored trials.
🔴The 2009 Vera Institute of Justice report reviewed files for 796 children and identified 532 foster children who participated in 88 clinical trials related to HIV/AIDS treatments.
🔴The drugs tested included AZT which carried well-documented severe side effects including vomiting, anemia, bone marrow suppression, and organ toxicity.
🔴Former staff and foster parents, including nurse Jacklyn Hoerger, alleged that some children resisted the medications, vomited, and were coerced or threatened into compliance.
🔴In many cases, consent was not given and there was no oversight.
🔴New York City required independent advocates or monitors for foster children in trials, yet records showed only about one-third of the 465 children had them.
#newyork
Critics documented cases where children had no effective personal advocate.
A 2005 investigation across seven states, including New York, found foster children enrolled in AIDS drug trials “often without providing them with a basic protection” of independent monitors.
Eighty of the children identified by Vera died while in foster care; 25 of those deaths occurred while the child was enrolled in a medication trial.
RFK Jr. also points to NIAID-funded trials involving pregnant women in Africa, in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
That trial tested single-dose nevirapine to prevent mother-to-child HIV transmission.
Later revealed problems with data integrity, underreporting of adverse events, and liver toxicity concerns that officials, including NIAID’s Edmund Tramont, initially downplayed.
Nevirapine later carried FDA warnings for hepatotoxicity.
Critics, including RFK Jr., describe these as experiments to determine tolerance levels in vulnerable populations with inadequate follow-up or consent safeguards.
Supporters said it was urgent public-health research with limited alternatives at the time.
RFK Jr. said the trials generated data that supported approval and widespread use of medications that became multi-billion-dollar products.

🚨 CDC “update” doesn’t change stance. Says COVID vaccines have NO evidence that any vaccines of causing fertility problems!🚨
The CDC “updated” its “Planning for Pregnancy” COVID page on October 8, 2026. They narrowed the age recommendation yet the fertility claims page is essentially UNCHANGED from prior versions.
MEANWHILE FAUCIS TEXTS POINT TO A DIFFERENT CONCLUSION. One if it won’t be acknowledged yet by the CDC, SHOULD be investigated seriously and not dismissed.
Faucis Text Thread: (January 25, 2021, released August 2026): “Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.”
When Fauci said it publicly, it was treated as law. Yet, the science he noted in his private texts still hasn’t moved the CDC’s fertility language in 2026.
If a theoretical first trimester risk was worth noting privately in 2021, why is the public page still using the same “no evidence” language in 2026?
#FAUCI #mRNA #FauciTexts #VaccineSafety
This is “MAHA?” WOW 👇👇
Ai was a heavy focus at the recent MAHA summit, which might explain why MAHA and @SecKennedy won’t call for a ban on mRNA.
Here, Larry Ellison calls for a centralized health data system. His project Stargate will use Ai to create mRNA cancer “vaccines.”
Be like James….
Metallica frontman James Hetfield took a swipe at artists who use their concerts to lecture audiences about politics during the band's Las Vegas residency.
In what could easily be seen as a dig at the likes of Macklemore, Hetfield told the crowd:
"Unless you live in Vegas, you've come a long way to spend some time with Metallica. We're grateful for that. Your travels, the money you spend, the time it took, thanks for coming to celebrate with us.
And I just gotta say, Metallica is not here, like some other entertainers, to influence you with their bullshit. We are here to forget about all the outside shit. Metallica's agenda is love, energy and heavy music, baby!"
Hetfield has rarely spoken openly about his politics, but past interviews suggest he holds many conservative values.
On Joe Rogan's podcast in 2016, he explained how he'd moved his family away from the San Francisco Bay Area, having grown tired of what he saw as its political intolerance and elitism.
As a Metallica fan, this is incredibly based! 🤘
This👇👇👇👇 It is insane to mandate annual Rabies vaccines to all house pets “ because a bat may fly in your house and bite your animal.” Titer testing should be a reality. Sadly all DVMs are being bought out by big companies that want to make money on injectables.
Time to address the animal schedule now. Where are all of my DVM’s?

Urgent: Support Dr. Byram Bridle's wife Jocelyn, after Quadruple Amputation
Last week I released this interview on my Facebook and email newsletter and it received significant attention. Today, I'm sharing it on X.
To support Jocelyn financially, see link below:
fundingthefight.ca/help_joce…
Jocelyn Bridle, wife of Dr. Byram Bridle, tragically had a quadruple amputation last fall. Today, I have a heartrending, but touching interview below with both of them sharing their story.
Many of you know Dr. Bridle for his courageous stand during and after the Pandemic. An associate professor and an immunologist, Dr. Bridle was well-placed to understand the potential dangers of the COVID jab, and was one of the first and only professionals of his kind to share concerns about the jab publicly. In the Spring of 2021 he was a guest at my Parliamentary Press Conference on medical censorship that became the most viewed Canadian parliamentary video of all time in only 48 hours. Shortly after, it was censored by Youtube. He appeared on Tucker Carlson's show, and various others, and also became a noted expert witness in many of the cases that have been profiled on this email before. For this he endured significant harassmentprofessionally and privately.
A little over a year ago, his family experienced a significant tragedy. Jocelyn Bridle, his lovely wife of 30 years, experienced a rare but explosive bacterial infection, which led in only a few days to hospitalization and a 13 day coma. During this time, tissue in all her limbs died, and she underwent a quadruple amputation. Living quadruple amputees are extremely rare, as most who require such extensive surgery do not survive, or are already gone.
Though she went through innumerable challenges, and almost died multiple times in the hospital, Jocelyn has exceeded all expectations. Against all odds, she is currently walking againon prosthetics, even though she was told she would never walk again. Her determination and positivity have been an inspiration to everyone in her path.
The Bridle's had to do extensive renovations to their home to make it possible for Jocelyn to function inside. Now they are looking at a special prosthetic arm and hand that will actually respond to the muscle twitches in Jocelyn's elbow. Like all prosthetics, the arm is extremely expensive, and is largely uncovered by the government. They need to raise $100,000 for this arm.
Please help Dr. Bridle cover the extensive costs associated with Jocelyn's prosthetics. His courage and tenacity during the pandemic have been exceeded by his wife during this extremely trying and harrowing time.
Please click link above to help today!
In our interview below, Dr. Bridle and Jocelyn shared with me that a few days before their 29th wedding anniversary last September, Jocelyn felt a bit under the weather. The next day she had excruciating pain in her abdomen area, and also in her knee. She went to the hospital that day, where they found she was septic (a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by an infection), and shortly thereafter, had to induce a coma to keep her alive.
During the coma of 13 days, she almost died multiple times. In response to the raging bacterial infection, her body shunted blood away from her extremities to protect the core. During this time, significant tissue died in all her limbs.
When she awoke from the coma, Doctors expected to cut off her limbs at the shoulders, and at the hip. In other words, they expected to amputate the entirety of all 4 limbs. With painstaking advocacy, waiting, and seeking other opinions, they were able to keep portions of all her limbs. In what can only be described as a miracle, three of her amputations are below the elbow or knee (keeping her joint, and allowing for many more prosthetic options) and only one is above the knee.
Given the initial plan was to amputate the entirety of all limbs, this is truly divine providence. You can see current pictures of Jocelyn below. Her prosthetics on her arms are insufficient for the tasks of daily living, which is why she needs an upgrade.
Byram tells me his wife has spent her life caring for others, including volunteering, helping the homeless and much more. He says it's ironic, that now she is the one that needs significant help, including for simple tasks like wiping tears, and scratching her nose!
Learning to walk is far more involved than simply learning to balance on new prosthetics. Byram told me many people with only one amputation never learn to walk, as they don’t have the will to do so. In Jocelyn’s case it was actively discouraged as doctors were afraid she would fall and be injured without arms to support her. Thus, they started a grueling process from the ground up where Jocelyn would learn to walk with tiny prosthetics, and they would raise them by an inch or two every few weeks. Therefore, she has had to learn to walk many times over the past year, as prostheses have been slowly raised to help her learn safely. Every adjustment requires learning again. These adjustments and changes are time consuming and costly.
If learning to walk wasn't enough, this summer she completed a feat Dr. Bridle never thought she would do again. She went for a canoe ride! Formerly a very outdoorsy type, this was a very emotional achievement for her.
The Bridle’s attitude during this time is a testament to humanity's capacity (with God’s help) to overcome extreme adversity and even thrive in it. While there have been many moments of discouragement and doubt, the Bridle’s shared that this crisis has brought their family closer together and even strengthened their love for each other and their faith. Jocelyn, a strong Christian, said that at many dark moments she was imbued with a divine peace, which even the doctors noticed, wondering how it could be so.
Though the subject of MAID was constantly on the table, the Bridle’s wanted none of it, and vigilantly watched to keep negativity at bay. One health professional remarked in her hearing that if this happened to him, he’d want to die.
During our interview we discussed the remarkable God-given potential in every person, and the inestimable value of life. Our culture has become allergic to suffering and wishes to avoid it at all costs. Yet to suffer is to experience the depth of humanity, and if we’re open, to God’s consistent care. Our culture, which would paradoxically rather end life than suffer has lost a critical depth to humanity. We care only for today, not what may come after, and our assessment of the deep values of life, including values like freedom and justice have also become stunted and shallow.
Jocelyn’s example of overcoming extreme adversity, and doing so with optimism and class has been an inspiration to many thousands of people. As she said, if her story helps just one person, it would be worth it.
The Bridle’s have been through an extremely tumultuous period, and have handled it with grace and class. Today they need your support to upgrade Jocelyn's arm, and provide other elements for her care.
