Toby: FYI, in USA federal (and probably in some states) authorities do confiscate assets well before trial and conviction. What you said about the FBI is incorrect.
I’m not saying I agree or disagree with what they do, but just pointing out that they do it.
Toby I agree with you for many things but I’m afraid you haven’t done your homework by saying RFK was ‘wrong’ on 3 issues. Firstly regarding vaccines and autism, he acknowledged that mercury was removed in vaccines but he added that aluminium (which also causes neurological damage) wasn’t. You only have to look at the Amish as a natural control – they don’t vaccinate and have hardly any autism. He does admit that it could be one of many factors (ie food, pollution etc) but that proper control studies have never been done to try to determine why chronic disease and autism in children has skyrocketed over the past 20 years. Regarding 5G and cell phone damage there is a plethora of studies done on the harms and as a lawyer he would not be engaged in major law cases unless he had evidence of harm. As you no doubt are aware, the vaccine and telecommunications industries have powerful lobby groups and have spent years trying to discredit any links to ill health. I do believe that to maintain your credibility you should look into this further (or ask Will Jones to do so). Or is this too much of a hot potato?
