Google has the power to manipulate what you see online, targeting you with certain advertisements and burying search results they’d rather you not see. But can they go so far as to control the outcome of political elections? Absolutely, according to Robert Epstein, Ph.D., a senior research psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology (AIBRT). Epstein, a Harvard-trained psychologist who founded the Cambridge Center for Behavioral Studies, likens Google to a dictator with unprecedented power because it relies on...

If you had any doubt that U.S. politics are run by a pay-to-play system, listen to the striking commentary made by Alabama U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks in the video above. The leaked audio is from an event held in March 20221 and explains, in no uncertain terms, that seats on the most powerful committees in Congress must be bought, at a price of $1 million or more. The money for these seats doesn’t come from average Americans, who typically can’t afford to donate that much. It comes from lobbyists, who offer to pay the price of the seat in exchange...
read moreBill Seeks to Muzzle Doctors Who Tell the Truth About COVID
One of the most stunning parts of this pandemic has been the denial of basic science, and one of the most shocking developments from that has been the attack on medical doctors who try to set the record straight.

read moreVilified Again, One of the World’s Healthiest Foods?
This article was previously published April 15, 2019, and has been updated with new information. While the consumption of chicken as a source of protein has become popularized in recent decades, eggs have been unfairly vilified, in part because of misconceptions regarding their cholesterol content.

However, in recent years, studies have clearly shown that eggs — particularly egg yolks — are one of the healthiest foods you...
read moreHow E-cigs Can Alter Your Brain, Heart, Lungs and Colon
Research from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine shows that daily vaping can increase your body’s inflammatory process through multiple organ systems. Interestingly, they also found that the action on inflammation depended on the e-cigarette flavor being smoked.1 E-cigarettes are not like traditional, combustible cigarettes. They don’t emit smoke or an offensive smoke odor, so they are usually misperceived as being harmless to your health. It’s been nearly eight years since I began warning of the dangerous...
read moreWhy Collagen Is Crucial for Bones and Skin
Collagen is the most common and abundant of your body’s proteins. One of its primary purposes is to provide structural scaffolding for your various tissues to allow them to stretch while still maintaining tissue integrity. While it’s commonly known that a collagen-rich diet can help counteract signs of aging in your skin, it’s also crucial for bone health,1,2,3 and this is less widely known. Collagen’s Role in Bone Bone is created as collagen fibrils mineralize together with carbonated hydroxyapatite (calcium apatite). Combined, they form a...

The power behind the corporate media industrial complex is collapsing, but they continue to maintain a powerful façade, Saagar Enjeti notes in the “Breaking Points” video above.1 Numbers of cable news viewers are on the decline, traffic is down to mainstream media websites and popularity of independent platforms has exploded — but mainstream media still have control over Americans and are reaping billions in dollars of profit. Enjeti explains that the reason mainstream media survive is because they are insular, fervently...
