I live in Denton near the Dallas area and read your book, The Meaning of Malice. I have shared it with many others. I had a family member murdered by her caregiver who was never convicted. My sister worked for a large legal firm in Fort Worth worked on the legal portion of this case, and I as a nurse practitioner worked on the medical side of it. We discovered eight pharmacies the caregiver used to get multiple narcotic prescriptions in the name of my family member. The caregiver’s daughter had been in federal prison for gun and drug charges. All of this went undetected as my sister and I did our own investigation. The DA in Denton County denied a trial. My trust in the medical legal system dwindled after that. Fast-forward to November 2021 when I I quit my job as a nurse practitioner in

due to the Covid mandates. I followed Dr. McCullough closely as Baylor Scott and White sued him, and this Substack started. I appreciate the huge connections both of you have made between all things “hiding in plain sight“!

Linda-- this is a horrible story. How sad for you to have had to witness this atrocity. Fact is though, as a society, we are in a crime scene as it unfolds...As Dr. Denis Rancourt has demonstrated....there was NO pandemic or excess death that justified locking down entire populations, closing schools and businesses and churches (while bars and super markets remained opened for business}. It was a normal flu year. There was never a legitimate reason for this attack on our health and our society--the entire enterprise was fraudulent and designed to impose controls on citizens and create massive profits for large corporations and drug companies while degrading our health and shortening our lives. We were 'forced' with mandates or social pressure into accepting a poorly designed and virtually untested product--not a 'vaccine'...to regain our normal lives. These often 'mandated' injections created a cascade of illnesses...including heart and circulation diseases, cancer and autoimmune disorders. And the crime is on going. I refused these injections and was the target of ostracism and worse.....but stood my ground. I remember hearing a talk by Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi in 2O21 where he begged people not to believe these lies and not to take these shots. He said if we did we would enter "hell"....I was not sure what he meant at the time, but he seemed passionate and sure... He was right. We have indeed entered Hades.

Thank you for sharing your story so that the truth will be told and we will all benefit. I had a similar experience 2 decades ago so this covid scam has been a long time in the making. My deepest condolences on the loss of your family member. Again thank you.

John, my understamding is every opiod was prescribed by an MD, they are liable even more so, just as they are for covid shots. We occupy a moral abyss of unimaginable proportions.

Morally liable, but didn't someone acting in the name of President F. J. Brandon just extend the criminals' get-out-of-jail-free cards to 2029?

I very much see why you write with Dr McCullough. The crimes occurring in the medical system need to be brought to light. I very much enjoy your writings John. Born a natural skeptic, I’m always seeking out the other side of any story.

Most people who are not psychotic have a hard time wrapping their head around the sheer malice and avarice displayed by others.

Excellent post, John Leake. When you deserve praise, I'll give you that too.

By asking this one question you reveal the multi-layered perfidy in the entire industry.

Well done!

One of the real crimes of the Opiod Epidemic is how for many years the Gov’t went after small business pharmacists for filling prescriptions for Opiods, but didn’t go after the doctors writing the prescriptions, the large Pharmacy Companies, the Pharma Company Executives, or anyone else. The pharmacists were just doing their jobs. If the doctor writes you a prescription the pharmacist should fill it. They shouldn’t have a duty to surveil their clients to make sure they are not taking similar prescriptions elsewhere, nor should they have responsibility for policing the doctors writing the prescriptions.

Yup. People seethe over the Sacklers and the Dopesick series. Meanwhile, noone was punished. Nothing has changed. And these nitwits roll up their sleeves for the next booster.

typo - what is this number intended to be "100,306.207 "

Expand full comment

The REASON is that the majority of these crimes are either committed by, orchestrated, condoned, approved, or funded by the ruling establishment that controls 94% of all forms of media, search engines, Hollywood, Big Pharma, and the vast majority of our political institutions, including many politicians.

People fail to recognize this because the media tells them not to. Furthermore, the media has conditioned many to believe they are of low character, racist, or some form of a bigot merely for pointing out these problems and crimes that directly affect us. If the past four years have taught us anything, it’s that the majority of people are too shortsighted to advocate for their own best interests. More often than not, they fall for whatever narrative the ruling ((establishment)) feeds them.

“ if you want to know who is in charge, simply look at who it is illegal to criticize “

John, thank you for following the path you've been led down. You've written some of the most informative articles I've ever read.I look forward to reading The Meaning of Malice. I'm thankful for the display of courage you and Dr. McCullough share. Regarding this particular subject on Opioids, there may be an even deeper story behind mental health pharmaceuticals negligently being pushed on the unsuspecting masses. Just like the pain scale used to push opioids, the DSM takes any manner of normal feelings and emotion and makes it a mental illness. The side effects of the medicines literally making people psychotic, creating bigger problems and ruining lives. I hope you will look into it!!

Thank you for the Kindle book John, it sounds very interesting.

I loved your book The Meaning of Malice! I couldn’t put it down - so riveting!

The focus on the pharmaceutical industry misses the broader picture. What's actually occurring is a quiet, pervasive dissolution of human consciousness - a gradual erosion of moral fiber, values, principles, and identity - all happening within each of us.

Consider the everyday manifestations: institutional clerks, border guards, police officers, attorneys, etc. - across all levels of society we see increasing willingness to bend rules and accept small corruptions.

Each minor transgression might seem insignificant, but multiplied across populations, especially among younger generations where this moral dissolution runs deeper, it creates the conditions that make phenomena like the COVID crisis and OxyContin epidemic not just possible but inevitable.

The patterns are visible everywhere, if we only look. But modern humans have largely lost this ability to observe, tethered instead to their technological pacifiers day and night. Even the entertainment they consume reflects this decay - the proliferation of anti-hero narratives, the glorification of thieves and addicts, the casual treatment of violence and murder as mere transactions. These aren't just stories; they're reflections of what's percolating within humanity's spirit.

It's astounding how everyone remains fixated on surface-level explanations, pointing to "the government" or "big pharma" as corrupt entities. But how can something intangible possess moral qualities? These institutions aren't sentient beings - they're composed of collections of individuals whose personal moral choices shape institutional behavior.

This failure to look beneath surface-level analysis prevents us from seeing the true mechanism at work. While everyone complains about corrupt systems, they miss the underlying spiritual decay spreading through humanity one person at a time, creating an unopposed vicious cycle that perpetuates itself precisely because it remains unrecognized.

This is humanity's most profound crisis. We're facing a spiritual catastrophe like none other in the history of our species, that few can recognize for what it is: not just abstract decay, but a concrete, measurable phenomenon that's been quietly developing over the past two centuries, before erupting into exponential progression over the last 60 years.

Beautifully put.

(You know of course that in the Bible leaven represents the power of corruption because if even one tiny bit of leaven gets into bread, it goes through the whole batch very very quickly. It doesn’t take much to kick off the spread of puffery through an entire system.)

It’s interesting that you mention the leaven from the Bible because just the other day I was writing a comment about that in a different context.

Indeed. There are several dimensions to it.

Being a native Hebrew speaker, the nuances of Hebrew language reveal layers of meaning that remain hidden when ancient texts cross linguistic boundaries.

The language is constructed with a root system consisting of letter triplets that correspond to the codon arrangement found in the science of genetics. This structural parallel suggests a deep, underlying mathematical and symbolic intelligence that transcends simple linguistic communication.

In other words, the symbolism of leaven can be extended beyond metaphor into physiological reality - a connection I explored in my response to Midwestern Doctor's post about Crystalline Water and its suppression in modern human biology. Such suppression mirrors the biblical warnings about leaven, revealing how ancient wisdom encoded practical truths about human physiology in the future.

This exemplifies a broader principle: every intangible pattern has a corresponding physical manifestation, though we often fail to recognize these connections.

Our inability to link seemingly disparate phenomena keeps us from understanding deeper truths. Take COVID-19, for instance - from the beginning, I've maintained that it represents a disease manifestation of blood corruption (fermentation), demonstrating how spiritual and biological decay mirror each other.

You are totaly correct, David.

I will express the same thing, this way: the humans rejected their Crator God.

God let us hit the buttom, hoping that this will force us to return to Him.

Plain and simple. Among many others, I always think about Isaiah 6: 9-13, especially 9-10.

Thank you John for what you wrote! This is very close and personal for me! My mother became addicted to prescription Vicodin and then after her second knee reliever they gave her unlimited OxyContin while she was in rehab for her knee following the replacement. I called the head nurse and told her my great concern as my mother sounded like a full blown addict with extreme mood changes. I let her know my mother was already taking Vicodin and asked her why they were additionally giving her unlimited OxyContin and she said the surgeon told het to give my mother as much as she wanted! I was horrified! My mother’s behavior became so erratic that her best friend stopped speaking to her. I was able to finally convince my mother of the serious effects of the narcotics and she to my great surprise seemed to make the connection and took herself off of them a short time later which was very difficult as the side effects were very severe. When the Covid shots came around I could not persuade her to not take them. She said she implicitly trusted her doctor. After her second shot, she lost her appetite and the very slow moving cancer in her lungs rapidly spread throughout her body and she passed away after 6 months.

Sorry about your mom! All too tragic and common, so many lives destroyed.

Thank you John!

My sincere condolences for your loss. What I understood from what you wrote is she basically trusted those who were licensed and given authority over her. Even though she had the tenacity and spunk to get off very addictive substances, they took what was a very laudable character trait, respect and trust in authority, and undid her with it. Totally heartbreaking.

It is sad when we see the harms doctors are capable of doing simply because they wear a white coat. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my mother to the cancer industry. If I had only known what I know now.....

I also saw loved ones maimed and suffering due to our ignorance and our trust betrayed. If I had only known then what I know now. I am living with so much grief. But as Maya Angelou said “when we know better, we do better.” And I take some measure of consolation from that thinking. (At least we didn’t take the jabs.)
