  • Idaho Statesman Advocates for Medical Tyranny

    Idaho Statesman is using its newspaper to advocate for medical tyranny.  Are you surprised? What happened to impartial journalism? 

    Idaho Statesman wants the state to “get rid of Idaho’s “personal belief” exemption for vaccines”. They want to “get rid of the state law that allows parents to ignore medical treatment for children for preventable illnesses”. Idaho Statesman says there should be no other treatment than MEDICAL treatment. A parent of a critically ill child would be forced to proceed with a specific ‘standard of care’. (Read here about the slippery slope this poses)
    What would define “preventable” treatment? Where is the line? 👀.
    Looks like Idaho Statesman would like the legislature to determine that for each and every one of you. ❌

    ✅ Take Action #5MinActivism

    Idaho Statesman thinks that Idaho dodged a bullet with a measles outbreak last year. (Read about the “HotSpot Hoax”the hoax that pockets of unvaccinated individuals will spread disease to vaccinated individuals)

  • Censorship’s Effect on Health Freedom Idaho

    “The more they silence us, the more people want to hear what we have to say!” Their censorship only tells us that we are being effective and that information needs to be heard!

    Facebook has said, “We’re committed to fighting the spread of false news on Facebook. ” Anything you say that goes against the narrative will be considered false news, even if that information is documented and backed up from the CDC and FDA websites. Recently Health Freedom Idaho has been targeted by Facebook ‘fact-checking’ censors.

    Don’t Allow Them To Keep You In The Dark!

    If you haven’t signed up for the Health Freedom Idaho Email List – DO SO NOW!

    Since 2017, Facebook has been targeting alternative health pages that do not buy into the mainstream content popular on conventional news outlets. This comment is against the background that several Facebook employees were former staff of CNN and NBC, among others.

    In February 2019 the Washington Times reported,

    “Company executives told Bloomberg News that they’re considering cutting from their pages any news that undercuts vaccinations — meaning, anyone who disagrees with the government about the need to vaccinate kids will see one of their key platforms completely shuttered.”

    “Anti-vaccination,” censoring free speech and limiting info on vaccines.

    Do you VALUE informed consent? Do you want access to resources that tell you the missing – information? Do you desire to spread truth, statistics, facts to allow people to make their own choices on topics of such great importance? On Facebook, you are promised to be silenced. Information you share will be marked with a sign such as the one below. They want you to know that they consider it false news and ask “Are you sure you want to share it?” And then they let you know even if you do share it, the information will not show up on the newsfeeds of friends or associates.

    Will Health Freedom Idaho’s Facebook Page Disappear?

    Not according to Facebook’s Business Publisher Guide instead, we will fade away as they remove the ability for our posts to be seen. That’s the official story, however, there are alternative health groups that have disappeared without warning and the opportunity to retrieve the information posted. Even last night, health-related pages were deleted without warning.

    We know that our reach has been reduced by 43% consistently. Our web traffic has decreased by more than 70%. The same amount of effort reaching half the amount of people.

    https://citizentruth.org/facebook-deletes-alternative-health-pages/

    Facebook Censorship tied to Profit?

    Del Bigtree shares some important motivations for Facebook’s censorship:

    Let’s put some pieces together: Facebook will censor you if you speak ‘wrongly’ about a product with known potential dangers, produced by a historically-questionable industry. Plus, Facebook is attempting to funnel users directly to pharmaceutical product distribution centers within their cities.

    In November 2019, Facebook rolled out a new feature called Preventive Health. Via this downloadable add-on, Facebook will proactively suggest users get flu shots during flu season, and will direct users to federally qualified locations nearby that offer flu shots. 

    Perpetual revenue streams secured. Marketing risk mitigated through censorship and legislation. No legal blowback. The perfect business model for increasing its 6 billion in profits.

  • Can a Biased Journalist Produce Objective Work?

    In the past three years, Health Freedom Idaho has grown. HFI has successfully pushed back against liberty stealing statutes and rules, particularly those surrounding vaccines, and in the process made their presence known. Due to this, the media is beginning to take notice.

    We have been told that an Idaho Statesman’s investigative reporter, Audrey Dutton, is writing a feature story on Health Freedom Idaho. In addition to requesting information from Health Freedom Idaho leadership directly, she made public records requests to obtain the names and contact information of members and individuals who testified at the recent rules hearings. She has been sending requests for interviews to Health Freedom Idaho members. We want our members to know that Dutton obtained this information through a public records request, NOT from HFI.

    Ms. Dutton has publicly stated her bias against parents who opt out of some or all vaccinations. She has determined that the vaccination debate is settled despite hundreds of published peer-reviewed studies that call the safety and efficacy of vaccines into question and despite the demonstrable lies and distortions uttered by vaccine proponents. Her opinion is that parents opposed to some or all vaccination are unjustifiably fearful and/or misinformed.


    your bias is showing Audrey Dutton
    Public Post from Dutton’s Facebook Page

    They like to say, “The science is settled. Vaccines are safe and effective.” But is science ever settled? Ask some real scientists and I’m sure they will tell you that science is never settled but is always ongoing. It takes a great amount of arrogance to claim you know it all and there is nothing more to the story. 

    Janet Levatin, MD

     It also takes a great amount of ignorance given that federal law recognizes vaccines injure and kill some recipients and research shows that 6% of pediatricians do not follow the CDC guidelines for their own children and 13% do not plan to follow the guidelines in the future. A whopping 21% of pediatric specialists planned to reject at least one vaccine for their future children. But most don’t talk about it because they are threatened with the removal of their licenses and harassed by their state medical boards if they do.

    Yes, some parents opt out of some or all vaccines for their children and recently their voices have grown stronger as parents educate themselves on the matter and realize their right to direct the upbringing of their children is being threatened all across the nation through draconian legislation and more. Bureaucrats in Idaho have already trampled parental rights codified in Idaho statute. 


    vaccine hesitancy unanswered questions

    Why Do Parents Hesitate to Vaccinate?

    Ms. Dutton has been emailing Health Freedom Idaho members asking for an interview about their vaccine choices. But why would anyone want to talk with her when she’s already determined that those who decline vaccines are simply doing so out of fear and ignorance. And isn’t a parent’s desire to protect his or her children the most important reason to decline a medical intervention admitted to cause injury and death?

    “…many parents in Idaho are opting out of measles/mumps/rubella vaccinations for their children…. The reason they balk usually isn’t religious or because of underlying health problems. It’s fear.” 

    Audrey Dutton March 8, 2015: “Idaho Parents Increasingly Gun-Shy Over Getting Shots For Their Children.”

    One is left to wonder the basis of this assumption and why it matters. A parent has the natural right to care for their child as they see fit. They can choose whether to vaccinate or not – for any reason, or for no reason at all. That said, religion, underlying health problems, documented scientific dangers of vaccines, bad experiences of friends and loved ones, and fear are five justifiable reasons to question whether the potential benefits of vaccinating are worth the risks and spiritual objections. – Health Freedom Idaho

    REFUSING VACCINES DUE TO THE TOXIC INGREDIENTS

    Let’s examine the description (in part) of the MMR II, made by Merck & Co, Inc.

    MMR II (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Virus Vaccine Live) is a live virus vaccine for vaccination against measles (rubeola), mumps, and rubella (German measles). MMR II is a sterile lyophilized preparation of (1) ATTENUVAX (Measles Virus Vaccine Live), a more attenuated line of measles virus, derived from Enders’ attenuated Edmonston strain and propagated in chick embryo cell culture; (2) MUMPSVAX (Mumps Virus Vaccine Live), the Jeryl Lynn (B level) strain of mumps virus propagated in chick embryo cell culture; and (3) MERUVAX II (Rubella Virus Vaccine Live), the Wistar RA 27/3 strain of live attenuated rubella virus propagated in WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts. {1,2}

    The growth medium for measles and mumps is Medium 199 (a buffered salt solution containing vitamins and amino acids and supplemented with fetal bovine serum) containing SPGA (sucrose, phosphate, glutamate, and recombinant human albumin) as stabilizer and neomycin…. Each dose of the vaccine is calculated to contain sorbitol, sodium phosphate, sucrose, sodium chloride, hydrolyzed gelatin, recombinant human albumin, fetal bovine serum, other buffer and media ingredients, and approximately 25mcg of neomycin….”

    MMR II, made by Merck & Co, Inc.

    Certainly Ms. Dutton cannot fault loving parents for not wanting to inject those ingredients into their healthy children. There is not a single study proving the safety of injecting all those ingredients. Is Dutton unaware of this fact?


    RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS TO VACCINES TAINTED BY ABORTION

    Many individuals believe vaccines are unclean and defile the temple (their body) because of the injection of modified viruses and bacteria, toxic contaminants and ingredients, and the fact they are cultured on aborted fetal tissues and animal tissues.

    What do all these ingredients mean to someone with possible spiritual objections? There are at least two answers to this question. One is the issue of abortion. The other is the multiple biblical references to introducing foreign substances into the body.

    Wistar RA 27/3 is listed and referenced with WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts. These are scientific terms and labels. Here is the reality of what they represent:

    “The rubella virus clinically named RA273 (R=Rubella, A=Abortus, 27=27th fetus, 3=3rd tissue explant) was then cultivated on the WI-38 aborted fetal cell line. A later research paper by Stanley Plotkin [vaccine developer]  would reveal that 40 more babies were aborted after RA273 was successfully isolated, with virus strains taken from 34 of them.[13A] This means a total of over 80 separate, elective abortions recorded were involved in the research and final production of the present day rubella vaccine: 21 from the original WI-1 through WI-26 fetal cell lines that failed, plus WI-38 itself, plus 67 from the attempts to isolate the rubella virus.” – Children of God for Life, Vaccines and Abortions.

    For patients and parents with strong objections to abortion, this information could weigh heavily on the decision of whether or not to use products that contain aborted fetal tissue such as vaccination. (More information on aborted fetal tissue in vaccines)

    RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS TO VACCINES TAINTED WITH FOREIGN SUBSTANCES

    The second potential religious or spiritual objection relates to foreign substances being introduced into the body. Many believe the Bible commands we not defile the temple God has created.

    “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.”

    (I Corinthians 3:16-17)


    Alarming research out of Italy documents not only the dangerous ingredients intended to be contained in vaccines but dozens of other toxic contaminants from lead to glass. The independent studies show there are more toxins in these biologics than the CDC is disclosing: https://childrenshealthdefense.org/wp-content/uploads/02-Gatti-2017-New-Quality-Control-Investigations-on-Vaccines.pdf

    There are many other sources of information on the toxic ingredients contained in vaccines such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for information on vaccine ingredients: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/downloads/appendices/b/excipient-table-2.pdf

    The bottom line is vaccines contain a variety of ingredients, both intended and unintended that may toxic, carcinogenic, mutagenic and even fertility impairing  – from aluminum to formaldehyde to polysorbate 80 to more. It is easy to understand how many parents might view these as a violation of God’s commandment.

    DECLINING FOR HEALTH REASONS

    To address the issues of underlying health problems and fear, let’s look at more information provided by the vaccine maker. 

    MMR II, made by Merck & Co, Inc. (in part): 

    “CONTRAINDICATIONS: 

    • Hypersensitivity to any component of the vaccine….
    • Do not give MMR II to pregnant females…
    • Anaphylactic or anaphylactoid reactions to neomycin…
    • Febrile respiratory illness or other active febrile infection.
    • Patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy.
    • Individuals with blood dyscrasias, leukemia, lymphomas of any type…
    • Primary and acquired immunodeficiency states…
    • Individuals with a family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency….

    PRECAUTIONS:

    • Adequate treatment provisions, including epinephrine injection (1:1000) should be available for immediate use should an anaphylactic or anaphylactoid reaction occur.
    • Excretion of small amounts of the live attenuated rubella virus from the nose or throat has occurred in the majority of susceptible individuals 7 to 28 days after vaccination.
    • As for any vaccine, vaccination with MMR II may not result in protection….
    • The health-care provider should provide the vaccine information required to be given with each vaccination to the patient, parent, or guardian.
    • The health-care provider should inform the patient, parent, or guardian of the benefits and risks associated with vaccination.

    Manufacturers report that there are vaccine reactions that include getting measles from the vaccine…and chronic conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, brain swelling, paralysis (temporary or permanent), seizures, lazy eye and more…

    The vaccine package insert contains a large section on adverse reactions, some of which include: Panniculitis, atypical measles, vasculitis, pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus, thrombocytopenia, anaphylaxis and anaphylactoid reactions, arthritis, arthralgia, myalgia, encephalitis, encephalopathy, subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, Guillian-Barre Syndrome, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (adem), transverse myelitis, febrile convulsions, afebrile convulsions or seizures, ataxia, polyneuritis, polyneuropathy, ocular palsies, paresthesia.”

    Given all this information, the description, the contraindications, and the precautions, doesn’t some fear seem warranted? And given these risks, does Dutton really think it is her place to declare the science settled, not to mention shame parents for well-placed fear?

    REFUSING ADDITIONAL VACCINES AFTER SEEING A LOVED ONE INJURED

    Ex-Vaxxer NOT Anti-Vaxxer

    This category of people who decline vaccinations, those who were once pro-vaccine only to experience the downside first hand, is likely the largest. Despite the fact that less than one percent of vaccine adverse reactions are reported, there have been over 87,000 reports of adverse reactions to the MMR vaccine to the federal Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System from the US and it’s territories. And if only 1% of reactions are reported, there could be as many as 8,700,000 reactions.

    Despite official reassurances that vaccine injuries are rare, parents who’ve seen their children hospitalized, stricken with chronic illnesses, paralysis, seizures, or blindness are not going to continue vaccinating. Siblings are spared the potential damage and parents are shamed for being anti-vax when they should receive our sympathy. In reality, they were pro-vaccine until they watched their child suffer and/or die. To add insult to injury, parents are shamed and targeted after vaccination injury by friends, family, and media. Many suffer in silence, raising a child with chronic illness or vaccine-induced physical challenge.

    Yes, parents opt-out for religious and moral reasons as well as previous vaccine injuries. Others, faced with the decision of vaccination, having read the medical literature to truly understand the risks and being left with many unanswered questions as vaccines are not subject to the gold standard of double-blind, placebo-controlled rigor, they utilize the vaccine exemptions available through Idaho statute. 

    Exemptions due to the Unanswered Questions

    Access to information regarding vaccines has become increasingly difficult due to censorship by big tech and the mainstream media who according to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., received a combined $9.6 billion in revenues from pharmaceutical companies in 2016 alone. Information, statistics and basic risk versus benefit analysis of vaccinations are getting harder to research. 

    For example, parents seeking to find out how many children died in the last measles outbreak in 2019 are redirected to the CDC website. However, after scouring page after page there is NO INDICATION how many U.S. children died in the highly contagious measles outbreak. *It was ZERO for those still looking for the answer.* 

    Health officials, doctors, and mainstream media claim that 1 in 1000 children will die from measles but before the introduction of the measles vaccine, the reported number was 1 in 10,000. Thanks to public health measures such as sanitation and clean drinking water as well as access to healthcare and nutrition, the rate declined from 13.3 per 100,000 in 1900 to .2 per 100,000 in 1963, before the measles vaccine was introduced. No children have died from measles in the US in last 2 decades.

    Some of the many unanswered questions: 

    • Why aren’t vaccines tested according to the gold standard with double-blind placebos?
    • Why are they the only product that is one size fits all?
    • If vaccines are so safe, why is there zero manufacturer liability? 
    • Why is the US the only country that gives the Hep B vaccine on the first day of life?
    • Why is it that after vaccine manufacturers received a liability-free pass, the vaccine schedule exploded to more than 70 doses of vaccines?
    • Why does the US give the chickenpox vaccine, when the UK and many other countries don’t, because it’s been proven to cause shingles, which is more dangerous?
    • Many scientists have raised the alarm on the amount of aluminum in vaccines. Why doesn’t the CDC address their concerns?
    • Why did the ACIP committee recently approve the new Hep B adjuvant despite the safety signal of a myocardial infarction?
    • Why are all four major vaccine makers (Merck, Sanofi, GSK and Pfizer), who have all been convicted of fraud, given a free pass when it comes to vaccines? Merck created the deadly drug Vioxx and is currently being sued for fraud relating to the Shingles vaccine, MMR vaccine, and Gardasil vaccine, their products are mandated for school entry?
    • Why do we give 26 vaccines in the first year of life to infants with immature immune systems that cannot even mount an immune response to vaccines?
    • Where are the safety studies on vaccines that were supposed to be conducted and submitted to the Department of Health and Human Services to ensure the vaccine’s safety?

    While we are flattered that time and resources are being spent trying to figure out how a small grassroots effort could grow into an outspoken voice of freedom and liberty in Idaho – answer, because we speak the truth and it resonates – these above questions deserve a thorough examination. Is Dutton willing to ask them? What’s more, the only group possessing unfettered influence at the state and national level is the pharmaceutical industry, that is where the focus of investigative reporting should be. Dutton must possess a great deal of cognitive dissonance to believe that the same industry that has paid billions in fines for fraud and is the largest lobbyist and contributor to political campaigns in the nation, is trustworthy when it comes to vaccines even though they have no liability for these products.

    Our question is whether an already opinionated journalist like Audrey Dutton is capable of reading the medical literature herself, talking to doctors and scientists with genuine concerns, investigating reported injuries and deaths after vaccines and writing a thought provoking and honest piece of journalism? Or will she simply regurgitate what conflicted officials, doctors, and vaccine stakeholders have fed her? We think educated readers know the answer to those questions.

  • Administrative Rules Public Comments

    I want to change the world but I don’t know how! How do I submit public comments? We have provided the email addresses but the hardest part can be that blank screen and blinking cursor. What do you say? We have provided several examples of comments made by active HFI members to help.

    Rainee Saunders offered to share her letter to legislators and administrators publicly for our readers. 

    Greetings honorable legislators and administrative agency professionals:

    I am gravely concerned about upcoming proposed rules with regard to the following:

    • Parental choice for immunizations
    • Over reach from the Idaho Department of Public Health Department through CPS
    • Mandatory medical testing on newborn babies

    I earnestly request that you take into consideration my position on these areas. I am opposed to government or legislative intervention, and am a staunch proponent of health freedom without mandates put into place which would restrict the right of anyone to make those decisions for themselves. When there are risks to medical treatment, there must be education, transparency, protection and choice for citizens, not rules that cater to agencies, corporations, and government operations.

    Please reference the following dockets:

    IDAPA 16 Department of Health and Welfare Docket 16-0000-1900

    IDAPA 16 Department of Health and Welfare Docket 16-000-1900f

    The proposed measures in these documents represent a clear violation of human rights as they go beyond the scope of the law and seek to coerce and bully parents into compliance. These violate Informed Consent, bodily autonomy, and allow agencies to operate outside the scope of the U.S. Constitution to permit activities which represent investigations conducted without due process and which nullify liberties protected by RIGHT of PROPERTY and PURSUIT OF LIFE

    They also directly violate innocent-until proven-guilty precepts and give preference and protection to criminals – one example being the CPS system which removes children from loving homes under false pretense and places them in foster care where abusers and pedophiles are granted access to children legally.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Sincerely,


    Here’s another example from an active HFI member:

    Dear Idaho Administrative Agency and Legislators.  

    As a temporary admin rule, this does not benefit the public, where there are clear medical risks, there must be clear and disclosed informed consent.  This is not the case for the rules regarding mandatory vaccinations, coercion in the medical professionals. 

    I believe that immunizations should be a parental choice.  And exemptions should be clearly expressed disclosed as informed consent at each encounter of mentioning vaccine recommendations and NOT MANDATES.  The meningitis rule to MANDATORY FOR “Student” is in clear violation of statute if it hasn’t been changed.

    CPS agencies are acting outside the scope of the US Constitution and the IDAHO Constitution
    There is clear violations of Basic Human Rights as protected by the US Constitution when parents are investigated by child protective services without due process of law, no clear crime committed and guilty until proven innocent and all hearing completed behind closed doors with little to no outside support.  These children are being traumatized time and time again by being removed PRIOR TO CLEAR CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS. Criminals have more rights than these children and in many cases these parents are NOT ACTING CRIMINALLY.  I am VERY concerned about the overstep of the Health Department through the department of child protective services.

    Finally any forced medical testing on anyone including adults children and especially newborns, is clear violation of informed consent and the freedom and liberties PROTECTED BY THE Right of PROPERTY AND PURSUIT OF LIFE.

    NOTHING SHOULD EVER BE MANDATED WHEN IT COMES TO ANYTHING PERTAINING TO THE BODY.  ONES OWN BODILY AUTONOMY IS ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL BASIC GOD GIVEN RIGHTS AND SHOULD NOT BE REGULATED AT ANY LEVEL.

    These rules are NOT EMERGENCY AND IDAHO IS A FREE REPUBLIC AND THE PEOPLE DO NOT WISH TO MANDATE THESE THINGS ACCORDING TO FEDERAL RECOMMENDATIONS FROM AGENCIES WITH CLEAR CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND WHERE THE STATE LOCAL AGENCIES CLEARLY BENEFIT WITH BUDGET PERKS AND FUNDING BENEFITS.

    Thank you for your prompt attention and corrective action.

    Please remove these unnecessary rules and alleviate the burden on the state citizen and fiscal responsibilities of these administrative rules. Please seek alternative legislation that ensures basic fundamental liberties are maintained and not violated.  These and other like rules are unconstitutional and hindering public trust in the legislative process.

    Sincerely,

  • Homeschool Teen Medically Kidnapped in Idaho

    Idaho resident Kristen, a homeschooling mother, brought her very sick child Brandon to the ER numerous times, and they keep sending him home. Tired of repeated trips to the ER and extremely worried about her son, Kristine says she urgently insisted that they provide other treatment for him. She knew something else was going on other than just the flu. Little did she know that urging for her son to be treated for more than the flu would involve CPS, accusations of medical neglect, educational neglect, and criminal charges against her. Its been six months, only limited weekly visits this single mom and her son want to be reunited. 

    UPDATE FROM COURT HEARING July 16 Canyon County Courthouse Caldwell, Idaho

    An amazing turnout to #BringBrandonHome!
    At one point I counted at least 50 people in the lobby.

    One supporter said, “I was extremely fortunate I was able to meet and speak with Brandon, a very intelligent young man who was extremely shocked all those people were there for him.”

    Thank you so much to everyone who turned out in support! We’ve definitely made a statement to this court and their reaction was perfectly predictable. Kicking people out, confiscating cellphones, threatening contempt of court over publicity, and closing their doors to the public are all red flags of CORRUPTION. 


    A summarized backstory

    Brandon, aged 15, was admitted to St. Alphonsus in Nampa and then transferred to St. Alphonsus Pediatric Center in nearby Boise, Idaho. Medical records show that he was admitted with Influenza A, a positive result for Mono, abdominal pain, recent weight loss, as well as thrombocytopenia (low blood platelet count), and leukopenia (low white blood cell count).  

    Over the next two days, Kristine watched her son suffer. It was often necessary for her to help him out of bed and walk to the bathroom. Brandon was given a walker so that he could navigate the hallways and receive some exercise.

    Brandon was then transferred to St. Luke’s Children’s Hospital in Boise. Mom was told that it was because there was nothing else St. Al’s could do for him, and he needed testing for cystic fibrosis, a respiratory disorder that can result in extreme malnutrition due to digestion issues.

    However, according to medical records of Dr. Amy Barton, a child abuse specialist that works for St. Luke’s through their Children At Risk Evaluation Services (CARES), the actual purpose for the transfer was to put Brandon into her care of Dr. Barton to determine whether or not his condition was medical abuse vs. medical neglect.

    Educational Neglect Alleged Due to Homeschooling

    Another allegation that CPS suddenly decided to throw at Kristine is that Brandon has been homeschooled for his entire life. The Department now alleges that Brandon’s education was neglected, because he was homeschooled, and has requested an educational evaluation, despite that he has a history of being in the gifted and talented programs through his online homeschool in Oregon.

    The Department is also requesting that Brandon begin high school again as a freshman at Homedale High School this September, despite that he has graduated through homeschool with the appropriate amount of credits at the end of this last school year.

    Mom is fighting for her son and NEEDS YOUR HELP

    Kristine has filed for a new evidentiary hearing and a new adjudication, asserting that misinformation and hearsay is perverting the court record. Kristine hopes that maybe her voice will finally be heard by Judge Tucker this time around. If not by the judge, then at least by someone with the power to do something about what is happening with her son.

    Kristine appears in court next on July 16th, for the 6-month review hearing, and to hear the motions she has recently filed. She expects that this will be a battle, but isn’t afraid. She says,

    “I will not quit fighting until my son is home again, where he belongs.”

    His own words! This boy wants to go home! 

    Listening to the full interview between CARES and Brandon, it is very obvious that key information was left out of Dr. Barton’s report, perhaps intentionally. 

    In the almost hour-long interrogation with Michelle Borgquist, Brandon states several times that nothing is wrong at home, his mother takes care of him, they do things outside of the house, and that he has plenty of access to food. 

    The interview begins with Michelle telling Brandon that they are in her “Talking Room” so that she can ask him questions and he can feel safe answering them. She makes him promise that he will tell the truth. Brandon agrees and then proceeds to answer her questions.

    When asked about things that he enjoys doing, Brandon answers include badminton, bowling, golf, chess, video games, board games, as well as several other outside activities. 

    At approximately 8m:45s into the interview, Brandon is asked if he can think of anything that has happened recently that made him sad or unhappy. Brandon answers,

    “Not being able to be with my family.”

    UPDATE: The court is beginning to silence this mother the interview below was taken down. 

    AUGUST UPDATE: Intimidation tactics and lack of due process for a mom who just wants her day in court. “Show me the evidence you have against me!!” She says.

  • Bedke Call to Action 5 Minute Activist

    In a recent article in the ID State Journal, Speaker of the House Scott Bedke points to a certain group as “weaponizing” & “monetizing” the vaccine issue.
    I wonder if he was referring to HFI and just didn’t want to mention our name? I wonder if he didn’t want to mention our name because people might research our mission statement and see that we are also in favor of health freedom? – Miste Karlfeldt Director of Health Freedom Idaho

    Speaker Bedke accuses HFI of “weaponizing and monetizing over concerns about vaccines”. Meanwhile he’s taking $$ from ALL the vaccine makers and other pharmaceutical groups.

    If a vaccine produces any immunity at all, why on earth does it matter if anyone else is vaccinated? If vaccines produce “immunity” to the diseases for which they are given; it should not make a bit of difference who you are around or how many in the community are vaccinated. That’s like saying my bug spray won’t work unless you wear yours.
