WATCH: Joe Biden Claims He Was Vice President during the Pandemic
During a recent speech Joe Biden claimed he was vice president during the pandemic and that he was sent to Detroit by Barack Obama to “help fix it.”
Biden was speaking at the NAACP annual dinner in Detroit on Sunday when he made the remarks.
“When I was vice president, things were kind of bad during the pandemic,” Biden said from the podium, with Detroit’s mayor sitting next to him.
“And what happened was, Barack said to me, ‘Go to Detroit and help fix it!” and well, the poor mayor he spent more time with me than he ever thought he was going to have to.”

Biden also used his speech to bash Donald Trump, telling the audience, “You’re the reason Donald Trump is the defeated former president. And you’re the reason Trump is going to be a loser again.”
He went on to say that Donald Trump is “trying to make the country forget just how dark and unsettling things were when he was president. But we’ll never forget.”
Biden even suggested that Trump was “so screwy” because he “injected bleach” during the pandemic.

‘It’s Insane’: Big Telecom Pushes Bad Cell Tower Deals on ‘Literally Hundreds’ of Schools
Editor’s note: This is the first in a series on how the wireless industry is targeting schools for wireless infrastructure installation. Part 1 covers the recent surge and why parents are fighting back.
Telecommunications companies are targeting school properties as prime locations for installing cell towers, antennas and other wireless infrastructure — and many schools are taking the bait, said attorney Robert Berg.
Berg represents parents in multiple lawsuits challenging proposals for cell towers or wireless antenna placements at their kids’ schools.
He told The Defender that “literally hundreds” of U.S. school boards have signed long-term leases with telecom companies.
“The school board members think it’s easy money,” Berg said. The school leaders rent out bits of school property to the wireless companies — such as a small site next to an athletic field or space on the school roof — for a monthly fee.
Many times school leaders have “no idea what they’re doing.”
“They lock themselves into bad contracts that can last for decades, at below market rate terms,” Berg said. “Meanwhile, the cell towers are irradiating all the kids, the staff and the teachers the entire school day, along with the surrounding neighbors 24/7.”
Parents frequently don’t learn of the deal until after it’s been signed — and then it’s too late, he said.
One of Berg’s cases involves what he called “a nightmare scenario” in Wyandotte, Michigan, where the school board, after literally 48 seconds of discussion, approved a contract with T-Mobile to pay the district $1,000 a month to operate a “massive array” of wireless antennas on the chimney atop Washington Elementary School.
Parents didn’t find out until the antennas were being installed. They protested, but the school board and superintendent insisted the contract would not be broken.
Parent dissatisfaction grew so great that the superintendent was forced to resign. The new superintendent asked T-Mobile to move the antennas to a district site — and the superintendent offered to build a taller cell tower for T-Mobile at the district’s expense.
T-Mobile refused.
Several parents sued to prevent T-Mobile from activating the antennas. The parents initially succeeded in court, but then the court dismissed their suit and allowed T-Mobile to turn on the antennas.
“The parents have appealed the decision,” Berg said, “but in the meantime, parents of about 20% of the pre-antenna student population have pulled their kids from the school, many transferring them to other schools or districts, and some selling their homes and moving from the city.”
Jenny DeMarco, co-founder and communications director for Virginians for Safe Technology, told The Defender she “accidentally” discovered that her kids’ private school had been sited for a cell tower. “They never disclosed this to the parents who paid tuition.”
“So I ended up making flyers,” she said. “My husband and I stood in the parking lot lines and handed out the flyers” informing parents of the school’s plans.
Enough parents found out about the proposed cell tower, that school leaders were “forced to address it,” DeMarco said. Although the school administrator evaded DeMarco’s attempts to determine if and when a contract was signed, the tower hasn’t gone up.
Now DeMarco is leading efforts to stop a cell tower slated to be built at a local public high school and adjacent to a local public elementary school.
Wireless company denies health risks
Milestone Towers, the wireless developer who wants to build the tower near the Virginia schools on March 14 told the Fauquier County School Board that it had developed “over 100 towers on public school properties over 20+ years.”
The company promised board members the new tower would bring in $11,520 in annual revenue for the school district.
The company’s presentation failed to mention any research showing negative health effects of wireless radiation exposure, DeMarco said.
Milestone Towers’ one slide on RF safety said their towers “meet or exceed” the U.S. Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) wireless radiation emission standards. “But that’s not saying much because the FCC’s standards are decades old and don’t take long-term exposure into account,” DeMarco said.
DeMarco said Milestone Tower, a major cell tower developer in her state, routinely denies health risks in its public presentations.
She shared a clip of the company’s founder and president, Len Forkus, telling a 5th grader — who voiced concerns that she may one day get cancer if his company put a cell tower on her school — that there is no research linking cell tower radiation to cancer or other health problems.
“That’s a lie,” DeMarco said.
The Environmental Health Trust, a nonprofit scientific research and education group focused on the effects of wireless radiation, compiled many independent peer-reviewed studies showing serious harm to humans from exposure to wireless radiation, including:
- A 2017 study that found living near a cell tower was linked to blood changes, which are considered biomarkers predictive of cancer.
- A 2018 study that showed adolescents exposed to higher levels of wireless radiation had delayed fine and gross motor skills, spatial working memory and attention compared with those exposed to lower radiation levels.
- A 2015 study that found higher rates of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in elementary students exposed to higher levels of wireless radiation compared with those exposed to lower radiation levels.
Even the telecom workers’ union, Communications Workers of America, warns workers that wireless radiation can cause sterility, eye damage, central nervous system harm and other “serious biological effects.”
“But somehow Milestone Towers omits all this information from its public presentations,” DeMarco said.
Where’s the informed consent?
When cell tower companies like Milestone Towers don’t tell school leaders about the risks students face from nearby cell towers, parents are denied informed consent, said Fauquier County Public Schools parent Jamie Hinkle.
“When it comes to schools,” Hinkle — whose three daughters attended Fauquier schools — told The Defender, “There has to be informed consent. I want to know about the risks.”
School leaders need to educate themselves about the possible risks to kids’ health and then provide that information to parents so parents can decide whether the risk is worth the money, she said.
“We vote in these school board members to act on behalf of their constituents.”
Wireless contracts lock in schools for decades
Most school leaders Berg has interacted with don’t understand the terms of the leases offered by wireless companies.
The board members think they’re renting out school property for just a few years because the initial term is typically five years.
“But the leases are renewable for additional five-year terms at the sole discretion of the lessee — meaning the cell tower company — so … they’re often 30- or 35-year leases,” Berg said.
The cell tower company alone can cancel the lease, as long as the company pays the rent fee and maintains the wireless facility. “They’re [the contracts] completely one-sided.”
Earlier in 2019, Fauquier’s school board signed this type of lease with Milestone Towers to put a cell tower at a different local high school. A copy of the lease for the newly proposed tower is not publicly available, DeMarco said.
DeMarco — who obtained the 2019 lease via the Freedom of Information Act — said the lease allows the company to operate its tower for 10 years with multiple five-year renewals.
“So the school board won’t be able to revisit the contract until the youngest kid at this high school is at least 45 years old,” she said. “It’s nuts.”
Berg, who analyzed the lease, said it was similar to what he’s seen signed by other schools.
Talk to school leaders early
It’s best if parents can inform school leaders about the risks of wireless radiation before a telecom offer is on the table, Berg said.
“I’ve been successful recently in a couple of instances in getting the boards to stop literally the night before the day they were going to sign the lease,” Berg said. “They backed off because the parents got involved a week or two or a month before and said, ‘Don’t enter the lease.’”
DeMarco and Hinkle are hoping that will happen in their community.
The school board on May 13 voted on whether to build the new cell tower, but the vote was a tie (2-2) with one member absent.
The full board will take another vote at their June 10 meeting.
Meanwhile, parents have been emailing the boards saying they have safety concerns. More than 260 people have signed a petition against the new tower.
Berg said people need to understand that school leaders have a lot of power to stop wireless companies. “The school district is perfectly free to say, ‘No, it’s our property. We don’t want it.’”
State and county officials can’t deny a wireless project application due to safety or health concerns — which are considered “environmental effects” under the Telecommunications Act of 1996 — but that’s not the case with school boards, he said.
School leaders can consider any reason they wish, including concerns about health and safety.
However, once school leaders sign a contract, it’s legally much harder to stop a wireless building project.
“That’s why you’ve got to get in early while you can present all that information to the board,” he said. “You’ve got to convince the boards of education that this is a really bad idea.”

Berg suggested parents give board members these three reasons:
1. There is no conclusive evidence proving long-term exposure to wireless radiation is safe — and there are plenty of scientific studies linking wireless radiation with severe health risks to humans, especially children.
“As fiduciaries whose primary responsibility is assuring the health and safety of those who use the schools, school board members should avoid intentionally exposing users of school property to continuous wireless radiation,” Berg said.
2. The lease likely isn’t just a five- or 10-year lease. “It’s a 35-year lease that the school district can’t cancel.”
3. “You’re tying up your ability to use that land for that period — and you’re exposing your teachers, your students, your staff and visitors to the dangers of this wireless radiation for a tiny amount of money. It’s insane.”
“If you can get in and make that presentation, oftentimes they’ll back off,” Berg said. “They realize they’re fiduciaries and this is kind of stupid.”

Congolese “Poster Boy” for Migrant Integration Jailed in Germany for Raping His Own Mother
A Congolese migrant to Germany who was feted by the German press has been jailed for nine years for assaulting and raping his own mother.
RMX News reports that Moise Lohombo, 30, was sentenced by the Wiesbaden District Court for the offences. The judge said the details of the case were so appalling he thought he had misread the file.
Lohombo assaulted and raped his mother in an apartment they shared, shortly after being released from prison for a drug-related offence. He threatened his mother with a knife and told her he would kill her if she didn’t have sex with him.
His mother was left with serious physical and psychological injuries by the attack. It’s claimed she told nurses at the hospital that she was afraid she would be pregnant with her son’s child.
The court rejected pleas from the defence to allow Lohombo to be treated in a psychiatric institution.
Lohombo was portrayed by German liberal media as a textbook success for integration. He arrived in the country at the age of 8, and after a misspent youth in which he accrued a considerable list of criminal convictions to his name, he was championed by the media for turning his back on crime to become an apprentice baker and a boxer.
“If you sit across from Moise Lohombo over a latte, you see a charming, friendly young man who enthusiastically shows pictures of his bull terrier dog Betty on his cell phone,” reported a piece in the Deutsche Handwerkszeitung in 2017.

Malaysian Doctor Goes Viral After Apologizing for Administering Covid Shots
(LifeSiteNews) — On April 17, a restorative doctor from Malaysia posted what seemed to be a sincere apology for administering the experimental COVID-19 “vaccines” to patients.
In a Facebook post, Dr. Syafiq Nordin said (English translation below from his native Malay):
“PLEASE FORGIVE ME
1. New revelations about Pfizer have revealed a weakness in the industry, of which I am part of.
2. I am saddened as, before meeting Dr. Razin Jaafar, the medical advice I gave contained many mistakes, particularly with regard to COVID.
3. However, I am very grateful to him because I am now more open-eyed and more enlightened about health sciences, which honestly are more natural and fitting to my soul as a medical practitioner and as a Muslim.
4. During the past COVID times, it is undeniable that it was difficult for health care workers who strove to provide the best health services, and even more difficult for the rest of the citizens facing the Movement Control Order (MCO) lockdown.
5. The administration of the vaccine at that time was seen as the best way, and the mass vaccination program was launched very rapidly.
6. I was also involved, in my capacity, in giving medical advice and obtaining “consent” so that the vaccine could be administered.
7. I, as a medical practitioner, also took 3 Pfizer vaccines.
8. Everything happened in a “touch & go” manner, it was impossible for me to identify whom I had given medical advice pertaining to this matter.
9. With this, I would like to apologize a thousand times for the mistakes I had made in the previous years, particularly to those who came to me during the mass COVID-vaccination season.
10. Honestly, I am unable to assist anyone financially should complications happen.
11. Nonetheless, I will try my best to provide more holistic medical advice in line with the Restorative sciences brought by Dr. Razin.
I apologize, Malaysian Citizens!”
Dr. Nordin’s post went viral, receiving 2,800 likes, 1,500 comments and 4,300 shares at the time of reporting.
One comment by Mohammed Shazni read:
“Congratulations doctor because doctor is man enough to admit his mistakes and apologize. Hopefully the others will also get rid of their ego and make a massive apology, including all ‘religious people’ yeah.”
Another comment by Biskut Jagung said:
“Thank you Doctor for the recognition And the doctor’s honesty. I was able to take mom to get her post v treatment with Doctor Razin because the vax has changed my mom’s life 360 degrees.”
Mohamad Shafiq wrote:
“The best doc.. I salute the doctor for his bravery to admit it. not an easy thing. May more medical practitioners come forward and raise awareness to the people.”
Top fan Raja Intan Ris also penned:
“Sad but thanks for the open apology Dr Syafiq Nordin. Hopefully more doctors who already know about the badness of V will appear to correct the condition”
With his apology, Dr. Nordin joins the ranks of people all over the world, including mRNA pioneer Dr. Robert Malone, U.S. journalist Megyn Kelly, and former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo who have changed their minds regarding the experimental COVID-19 shots.
In 2021, amid the COVID-19 “vaccination” craze worldwide, Malaysia launched the National COVID-19 Immunization Programme (NIP), known as “Program Imunisasi COVID-19 Kebangsaan” in Malay. At that time, Malaysia set a target of inoculating at least 80% of its population by February 2022, according to Reuters reports.
Moreover, just like any other COVID-19 czar and globalist worldwide, the Malaysian Health Minister at that time, Khairy Jamaluddin, who was elected as vice president of the 75th World Health Assembly (WHA) in 2022, threatened Malaysians who were resistant to the COVID-19 shots, saying:
“Sorry to say, we will make life very difficult for you if you’re not vaccinated by choice.”
“If you choose not to vaccinate, then we will probably ask you to do regular tests that you have to pay for,” he added.
“Although Malaysia is unlikely to mandate vaccination at the national level, it is seriously looking at sectoral mandates.”
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on February 16, 2022, Khairy attempted to debunkclaims that his son was injected with air rather than the COVID-19 “vaccine”:
“Don’t disturb others who want their children vaccinated,” he posted.
Earlier, Khairy had shared a video of six-year-old son Raif getting “vaccinated,” but some social media commenters retorted that the video was just “for show” and that his son had not actually received a COVID-19 shot.
Malaysia, a Southeast Asian country, has seen its fair share of those resistant to the COVID-19 shots. According to a survey by the Ministry of Health Malaysia conducted in December 2020, as reported by establishment media outlet Channel News Asia, 17 percent of those polled said they were unsure of the “vaccine.” Up to 78 percent of those in the uncertain group were not confident that the experimental “vaccines” would be effective, and 71 percent thought they would be unsafe for use.
In 2023, The New Straits Times reported that Khairy was one of several defendants, along with “vaccine” makers Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Pharmaniaga, in domestic lawsuits over side effects from the COVID-19 “vaccine.”
The plaintiffs demanded that the defendants like Khairy be held culpable for the side effects of the “vaccines,” including severe complications causing “death, permanent disability, and other complications resulting in losses.”
Besides Malaysia, neighboring Singapore was not spared from various rounds of draconian COVID-19 lockdowns and experimental “vaccination” campaigns either, with the Singapore government coming down harshly on “vaccine” resistance. Religious houses of worship, including Catholic churches, had to implement government-mandated “vaccination-differentiated safe management measures” (VDS) in 2022.
Based on Singapore’s VDS measures, only those considered by the government as “fully vaccinated” or who were “medically ineligible for Covid-19 vaccines or have recovered from the disease as well as children aged 12 and below,” could attend in-person worship services and Catholic Masses. No religious exemptions were granted to those who expressed doubts about receiving the abortion-tainted “vaccines.”
Belgium and Hungary Launch Controversial Digital IDs, Vaccine Passport, Ahead of EU Regulations
Belgium and Hungary are leading the way in launching digital ID wallets ahead of EU’s eIDAS (“electronic identification and trust services”) 2.0 regulation and EUDI Wallet coming into force later this month.
In Belgium, the MyGov.be app, covering all of the country’s federal public services, was launched on Tuesday, with the government promoting the digital identity as “simplifying” the use of its services, and “making life easier.”
In other words, the authorities there are playing the convenience card – while downplaying the risks that come with this type of centralization of people’s identities.

The wallet, via “eBox” mailbox, gives access to government-issued documents, as well as 683 services, identity data, Covid vaccination records, and more.
However, the success of the scheme is by no means guaranteed – on the one hand it is not mandatory, so people are free to decide not to use it.
Judging by an opinion poll Deloitte carried out last year, “71 percent of Belgians do not want a digital ID on their phone,” reports say, adding that the same survey showed that 79 percent “do not want a mobile driver’s license, while half refuse to fully digitize their IDs.”
“Ease of use” is also how digital ID is pushed in Hungary, where the appropriate app will be made available for download as soon as this week, while the service will be fully operational from September.
Enthusiastic reports about this development describe the digital ID program as “innovative,” “handy” and “saving costs.”
At the same time, putting all of a person’s data in one place and storing it in the cloud is advertised as something positive, instead of what opponents consider as scary – from the security standpoint alone.
The operation is centralized via Hungary’s Digital Citizenship Program. Wallet users will have all their administrative, etc., documents in that one place, plus a digital mailbox, their vaccine passport, and can rely on a pan-EU electronic signature, while electric payments will be “fully integrated.”
Hungary’s digital identity scheme uses biometric data obtained through facial recognition to match a user’s face “against a government database.”
Meanwhile, some security researchers in other EU countries are warning that as many as 75 percent of what are described as high-risk organizations (healthcare, banking, air travel…) “do not use the strongest verification method.”
