I turned&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/i\/broadcasts\/1rmxPyqrLMYKN\">three hours of footage<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;into a five-minute read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senator Ron Johnson opened the hearing with a bombshell: the Biden administration&nbsp;<strong>knew<\/strong>&nbsp;about deadly heart risks tied to the COVID shots, and deliberately kept it from the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Johnson released newly subpoenaed records exposing a detailed timeline of what officials knew and when. While Pfizer and Moderna received insider updates, doctors and citizens who raised concerns were silenced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In February 2021, Israeli health officials warned the CDC of \u201clarge reports of myocarditis, particularly in young people\u201d following Pfizer injections, just two and a half months after the vaccine received emergency use authorization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By April, the CDC was already reviewing myocarditis data from Israel and the Department of Defense. But instead of alerting the public, they stayed quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By the end of that month, VAERS had recorded 2,926 deaths, nearly half of which occurred within three days of injection. \u201cSomebody ought to be looking at it,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In May, the CDC considered issuing a formal health alert\u2014but scrapped it. They replaced it with watered-down guidance that removed a key warning for doctors to restrict physical activity in myocarditis patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Francis Collins, then director of the NIH, brushed it all off. \u201cSenator, people die,\u201d he told Johnson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In just six months, the toll was staggering: 384,270 reports of adverse events, 4,812 deaths, and 1,736 of those occurred within just&nbsp;<strong>48 hours of injection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Peter McCullough then took the floor and upended the narrative that vaccine-induced myocarditis is \u201crare.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before COVID, McCullough had seen just two myocarditis cases in his entire career. After the rollout, everything changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He says he\u2019s now \u201cexamined thousands of patients with this problem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s 1,065 papers in the peer-reviewed literature on COVID vaccine myocarditis,\u201d he explained, pointing to a 2021 case published in the New England Journal of Medicine. A 42-year-old man developed vaccine-induced myocarditis. \u201cThe infection is ruled out,\u201d McCullough said. \u201cIt\u2019s the vaccine.\u201d Three days after his Moderna shot, the man was dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>McCullough cited a shocking case from Korea\u2014a young man who died within eight hours of hospitalization after a Pfizer shot. His heart had been, in McCullough\u2019s words, \u201cfried with inflammation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then came a case from Connecticut: two teenage boys, 16 and 17, died in their sleep just days after Pfizer. Their parents found them unresponsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese cases\u2026 should have gotten everyone\u2019s attention,\u201d McCullough said. \u201cWe should never have someone die after taking a vaccine that\u2019s directly caused to the vaccine.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alabama-based physician Dr. Jordan Vaughn followed up with a chilling estimate\u2014up to 15 million Americans may be suffering from long COVID or COVID vaccine injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He now treats teenagers who can\u2019t stand up and previously healthy adults who are suffering strokes with no clear cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Vaughn, the spike protein\u2019s S1 subunit is far from harmless. \u201cIt triggers inflammation, it disrupts endothelial barriers, it induces fibrin resistant to breakdown, and it promotes a lot of amyloid aggregates,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These effects impair oxygen delivery, damage blood vessels, and trigger a wave of symptoms\u2014racing heart, brain fog, shortness of breath, and post-exertional crashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his clinic, Vaughn uses immunofluorescent microscopy to detect the spike protein\u2019s damage, showing up in patients who were once thriving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He warned that the mRNA injections led to uncontrolled spike protein production, which spread throughout the body, reaching the heart, brain, ovaries, and testes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regulators claimed the vaccine stayed in the arm. That was a lie. A Yale study now shows some people are still producing spike protein&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.yale.edu\/2025\/02\/19\/immune-markers-post-vaccination-syndrome-indicate-future-research-directions\">more than 700 days after their last injection<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We didn\u2019t just inject people. We turned them into spike protein factories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OB-GYN Dr. James Thorp delivered one of the most haunting moments of the hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the COVID shots \u201c<strong>MIRRORED<\/strong>\u201d the effects of chemical abortion drugs\u2014and the government knew what it was doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Thorp pointed to the now-infamous Shimabukuro study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, which claimed a 12.6% miscarriage rate following COVID vaccination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when you isolate the data for women vaccinated in the first trimester, the miscarriage rate rises to 82%, Dr. Thorp said. This 82% claim remains a topic of debate within the scientific community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If true, \u201c<strong>This figure mirrors the effects of chemical abort drugs<\/strong>,\u201d Dr. Thorp lamented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added, \u201cRecently, animal studies revealed the mRNA COVID vaccine causes the destruction of\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC12031016\/\">60 PERCENT of the ovarian reserve in rats<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F16eca6c0-27d6-489f-ba96-f5a7d057c5b1_876x770.png\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot: Pew Research<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Attorney Aaron Siri then delivered a little-known history lesson on vaccine liability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor every product on the market, you can SUE the manufacturer for harm,\u201d Siri said. \u201cThere\u2019s only ONE product in America you CANNOT sue the manufacturer to claim it could have been made safer\u2014and that\u2019s VACCINES.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He explained how the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act gave pharmaceutical companies sweeping immunity, not just for three vaccines, but for every new childhood shot added to the CDC schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result? A schedule that exploded from 3 shots to 29 in the first year of life, with zero accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey don\u2019t have the financial incentive to make them safer,\u201d Siri said. \u201cIn fact, they have the disincentive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senator Ron Johnson confronted Hawaii Gov. Josh Green, who was defending the COVID jabs at the hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<strong>I could fill this room with photos of people who are DEAD because of the COVID injection<\/strong>,\u201d Johnson said. \u201cI could fill the room,\u201d he reiterated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He made the comment after calling out how the vaccine-injured are still being ignored, gaslit, and denied care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Johnson pointed to VAERS data showing 38,607 reported deaths after the shot, 9,228 of them within two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Multiply that by a conservative underreporting factor of 10, and the death toll climbs to&nbsp;<strong>over 386,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Peter McCullough delivered one of the most powerful moments of the hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senator Blumenthal had previously claimed the COVID vaccines \u201csaved three million lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. McCullough quickly dismantled that false narrative. He delivered a three-part reality check on what actually brought COVID deaths down:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Natural immunity did the heavy lifting.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Early treatment kept people out of hospitals.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. The virus mutated into a milder form.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe vaccine cannot be falsely credited with saving millions of lives,\u201d McCullough said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe can\u2019t allow false drug advertising to be put up on a poster behind one of our public servants. We cannot accept that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sen. Ron Johnson delivered another crushing blow to the \u201csafe and effective\u201d narrative\u2014this time with a devastating chart that exposed that lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chart showed that one of the biggest spikes in COVID cases and deaths occurred&nbsp;<em><strong>AFTER<\/strong><\/em>&nbsp;the vaccine rollout began in December 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By mid-2021, over half the U.S. was \u201cfully vaccinated.\u201d But instead of improving, the numbers got worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the vaccine had worked, cases and deaths would have dropped. They didn\u2019t\u2014and this chart makes that impossible to ignore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sensing the narrative was slipping, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut) scrambled to defend public health officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He became visibly agitated at the suggestion that vaccine risks had been covered up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI may be sounding a little bit like a lawyer, not a physician, but purposeful concealment, intentional hiding, is essentially undocumented by the evidence released by this report itself,\u201d Blumenthal said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He brushed off the myocarditis concerns as \u201crare\u201d and insisted that officials like Rochelle Walensky took \u201cmultiple steps\u201d to warn the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So his message quietly shifted from \u201csafe and effective\u201d to \u201c<strong>We did our best with what we knew at the time<\/strong>,\u201d a clear sign that the vaccine narrative is running out of ground to stand on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaccine-injured physician Dr. Joel Wallskog captured the pain of the vaccine-injured better than anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf I could describe one word that I think all, if not most, vaccine-injured will say\u2026 it\u2019s&nbsp;<strong>ABANDONMENT<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He explained how people like him have been attacked from both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe right says we\u2019re stupid\u2026 the left calls us anti-vaxxers, which is one of the most ignorant things to say.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He reminded the room that he was injured because he got vaccinated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Wallskog and vaccine-injured associate Brianne Dressen met multiple times with FDA vaccine chief Dr. Peter Marks over two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have been placated, we have been blown off,\u201d he said. \u201cHe thanks us, he says he\u2019ll get back to us\u2026&nbsp;<strong>he never does<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Wallskog added that the idea that federal agencies are trying to help is \u201cthe farthest from the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. McCullough closed the hearing with a final truth bomb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve asked for us to cite evidence,\u201d Dr. McCullough began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He pointed to three papers by Nathaniel Mead, a former National Institutes of Health writer sitting in the audience. Together, they contain nearly 1,000 references\u2014and they all reach the same conclusion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cThe risks of COVID-19 vaccination far outweigh any theoretical benefits.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. McCullough then dismantled the narrative pushed by Gov. Josh Green and Sen. Richard Blumenthal, calling their claims that the vaccines saved lives and reduced the severity of disease as nothing more than \u201cwishful thinking.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want America to be fooled by this hearing today thinking that the vaccines saved lives\u2014because they didn\u2019t,\u201d Dr. McCullough said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The COVID vaccine narrative they sold to the public is collapsing right before our eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the full Senate hearing and see what your so-called \u201ctrusted health officials\u201d were hiding all along.&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/i\/broadcasts\/1rmxPyqrLMYKN\">Click here to watch.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by\u00a0Vigilant Fox\u00a0 This article originally appeared on&nbsp;vigilantfox.com&nbsp;and was republished with permission.
