CMEs from a great conference are now available.
Independent Medical Alliance Launches IMA Academy, Expanding Access to Expert-Led, CME-Accredited Medical Education New platform debuts with more than 225 lectures, 130 hours of educational content, and plans for a comprehensive cancer education curriculum WASHINGTON, D.C. (June 11, 2026) - The Independent Medical Alliance (IMA) today announced the official launch of IMA Academy, a new medical education platform designed to provide healthcare professionals with expert-led, evidence-first education that is independent, transparent, and free from institutional and commercial influence. Available at academy.imahealth.org, IMA Academy represents a major milestone in the organization's mission to restore trust in medicine by expanding access to high-quality continuing medical education (CME) grounded in scientific rigor and real-world patient care. The platform launches with a vast collection of independent medical education content, featuring more than 225 lectures, 130 hours of educational programming, and 56 physician faculty and subject matter experts spanning dozens of specialties. "Medical education should challenge assumptions, encourage scientific inquiry, and equip physicians to better serve their patients," said Dr. Joseph Varon (@joevaron), President and Chief Medical Officer of the Independent Medical Alliance. "IMA Academy was created to give healthcare professionals access to expert-led education that is evidence-based, intellectually honest, and free from the conflicts that too often influence traditional medical education. We believe physicians deserve more opportunities to learn from experienced clinicians working on the front lines of patient care." Read full statement and visit IMA Academy today - links below. 🔽

We lost a true warrior and wonderful man. He will be dearly missed. Blessings to his lovely family.
Today, we mourn the loss of a true champion for freedom, justice, and the rule of law. Warner Mendenhall (@MendenhallFirm), founder of @Freedom_Counsel and a longtime friend and partner of the Independent Medical Alliance, passed away after a courageous battle with colon cancer. Warner was a fearless attorney, but he was also a deeply compassionate human being. He became a trusted advocate for countless individuals who had been harmed, silenced, or abandoned by the healthcare system. From leading the whistleblower lawsuit against Pfizer on behalf of Brook Jackson to defending vaccine-injured patients, physicians, and families challenging mandates, Warner consistently stood with those who felt powerless. His relentless pursuit of justice was matched only by his kindness, generosity, and willingness to help others—often working pro bono and without seeking recognition. To many, he was not only a legal warrior, but a source of hope during some of the darkest moments of the COVID era. He was a defender of truth, a builder of coalitions, and a leader who helped create an army of lawyers dedicated to protecting fundamental freedoms. Even in the final chapter of his life, he continued developing legal resources, tools, and strategies to help others carry this work forward. What made Warner so extraordinary was not only his brilliance, but also his optimism. He never stopped believing that freedom could be restored, that justice would prevail, and that ordinary people could make an extraordinary difference. His legacy lives on in the lives he touched, the freedoms he defended, and the countless patients, physicians, attorneys, and advocates he inspired. Our deepest condolences go out to the entire Mendenhall family, who were so very precious to him, and to his friends, colleagues, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. Rest in peace, Warner. Thank you for your courage, your friendship, and your unwavering commitment to liberty.

Independent Doctors Demand Texas Children's Hospital Give Annelise Camp Every Opportunity to Live Two-year-old near-drowning patient puts Texas's Right to Try law directly to the test; IMA calls on hospital to stop pressuring parents toward life-ending decision FULL STATEMENT: WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Independent Medical Alliance (IMA), a national coalition representing more than 12,000 independent physicians, researchers, and clinicians, today issued an urgent statement demanding Texas Children's Hospital cease its pressure campaign against the parents of Annelise Camp, a two-year-old near-drowning patient currently fighting for her life, and honor the family's right to pursue every available avenue for their daughter's recovery. Texas Children's Hospital (@TexasChildrens) has indicated it intends to pursue a brain death determination for Annelise, over the explicit objections of her parents, who are seeking access to alternative treatments and supportive care in accordance with the state's Right to Try law. The IMA is calling that effort premature, medically unsound given the patient's age and circumstance, and a direct violation of the principles that Texas's Right to Try legislation was designed to protect. "Annelise must be given every opportunity to recover," said IMA Senior Fellow @DrKatLindley, Director of the IMA Fellowship Program. "Texas Children's Hospital needs to remember its mission: to treat and care for every patient. The medical literature is clear that young children who have experienced near-drowning events can and do make remarkable, even extraordinary recoveries, recoveries that would have been impossible if families had been forced into premature end-of-life decisions. These parents are not in denial. They are doing what every parent would do: fighting for their child's life. Texas Children's Hospital must stand down from this pressure campaign and work with this family, not against them." The Science Is on the Family's Side The medical case for giving Annelise time is grounded in well-documented neurological science. Young brains possess extraordinary neuroplasticity: the capacity to rewire, compensate, and restore functions once thought permanently lost, even following prolonged oxygen deprivation. There are many documented cases of toddlers and young children who have regained consciousness, relearned to walk and speak, and gone on to live full lives after near-drowning events and extended coma. Any decision to foreclose the possibility of recovery, over a family's explicit objection, and in a patient population where the science supports waiting, is not a medical determination, but rather a policy determination, and exactly the kind of action that Texas's Right to Try law was designed to prevent. "Families must have the right to give their child every chance to fight back and recover," continued Dr. Lindley. "That is precisely why Texas passed its Right to Try law, so that parents facing the most devastating moments of their lives are not also being pushed toward irreversible decisions by institutional timelines that may have nothing to do with their child's prognosis. Texas Children's Hospital has an opportunity right now to lead with compassion, to work alongside this family, and to demonstrate that patient-centered care is more than a mission statement. We are urging them, in the strongest possible terms, to take it."

Prison is not good enough for these psychopaths.
Federal prosecutors just charged an NIH virologist with smuggling biological materials into the United States. His name is Vincent Munster. He's not a minor scientist. He runs the Virus Ecology Section at one of the government's premier BSL-4 labs. This is bigger than a customs charge. Thread 🧵

FDA and Pfizer are colluding again with lies. Medical mafias continue.
Pfizer’s 4-DOSE Lyme disease vaccine is COMPLETE GARBAGE... the trial FAILED its primary endpoint. They claim 73% efficacy but the 95% confidence interval crashes down to 15.8% (>20% required to meet statistical success criteria). This means their trial proves nothing — yet they’re still rushing to FDA anyway to rake in BILLIONS. Criminal enterprise Pfizer at it again.

An excellent assessment of the situation and Executive Order. This is a step towards giving governance back to the individual.

This Executive Order is not about vaccines. It is about power. For decades, a small network of federal agencies, advisory committees, professional societies, and pharmaceutical interests has effectively controlled vaccine policy in America. Trump's new Executive Order challenges that arrangement directly. The media says this is a vaccine story. They're wrong. It's a governance story. And it may permanently change the relationship between the American people and the public health bureaucracy. My analysis: malone.news/p/the-executive-…

Never mind the proven DNA contamination in the Covid injections and the current cancer trends. Nothing to see here, of course.
A gene therapy given to a 13-month-old boy has, years later, led to a tumor in his brain after the virus carrying the gene inserted part of it directly into his DNA, researchers report. The mass was safely removed, but his case appears to be the first time a gene therapy delivered directly into the body has been linked to cancer. Learn more: scim.ag/49vonz8

THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT GOING TO PROTECT US… IT IS INDEED UP TO US TO REFUSE ANY MANDATED DRUGS AGAINST OUR WILL. THE LAST BASTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS IS OUR OWN SOVEREIGN BODY. THE STATE IS NOT OUR GOD. WE MUST AND WE WILL DISOBEY!
BREAKING: The Supreme Court just delivered a massive blow to health freedom. “This should frighten us all.” “The system is not going to protect us.” Here’s what happened: A federal court quietly delivered one of the most terrifying rulings ever last year. The Ninth Circuit Court said the government can force any medical intervention on you. With no evidence or judicial review. This is the backstory: In 2021, we filed a lawsuit against the Los Angeles Unified School District over their Covid-19 vaccine mandates alongside California Educators for Medical Freedom and several individual plaintiffs. In July 2025, the Ninth Circuit Court ruled against us. They said that as long as authorities say a mandate is for “public health,” then the courts shouldn’t question them. And that it didn’t matter whether or not the Covid shots actually worked. All that matters is that authorities said they did. So we petitioned the Supreme Court to review this egregious and unprecedented ruling. But today, the Supreme Court officially denied our petition. HFDF President Leslie Manookian: “This means that the Ninth Circuit’s egregious ruling—that it doesn’t matter whether a shot stops transmission or infection, all that matters is that a state official could have believed a shot would help individual members of the public—will stand.” “And it’s now precedent in the largest circuit in the United States.” “But this is the most important thing for us to all take away: the system is not going to protect us.” “It’s up to us, the people … to refuse to ever obey a mandate from authority again.” “They’re already stirring the pot of fear about the supposed African disease … and this new one from the cruise ships.” “This is what’s coming, folks.” “What is going to protect us … is us as individuals standing up, linking arms with our friends and our neighbors, and saying no, we refuse to comply.” “We will never again obey your civil liberty-violing mandates.” “And we have to fight state by state to pass laws that protect our rights and freedoms.” “Because the federal government’s not going to do it.” This is a saddening setback for health freedom—but we are not giving up. This year, we launched a coalition to outlaw medical mandates across the state legislatures. And we’re seeing incredible progress. In 2025, Idaho’s Medical Freedom Act outlawed almost all medical mandates. This year, multiple state legislatures have already passed similar laws to outlaw medical mandates. And similar laws are advancing through state committees in more states. “While I’m incredibly saddened by this, I’m also galvanized.” @LeslieManookian

Makary Out at FDA. Independent Doctors Urge the Next Commissioner to Confront America's Prescription Drug Crisis — and End Big Pharma's Capture of the Agency FULL STATEMENT: WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following the departure of FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, the Independent Medical Alliance (IMA), America's largest coalition of independent physicians, researchers, and clinicians, today urged the White House to choose a successor focused on real reform and on ending Big Pharma's grip on the nation's top drug regulator. "Over the past two decades, America has become addicted to pharmaceuticals. Today, 7 in 10 American adults take at least one prescription drug every single day," said Dr. Joseph Varon (@joevaron), IMA President and Chief Medical Officer. "The next commissioner cannot be another caretaker for the industry. The job demands reform, which includes dismantling the FDA's corporate capture and restoring a clear, unwavering bias toward patient safety and long-term health." Last month, the IMA released a white paper documenting that the United States is the most-medicated nation on earth: 69% of American adults take at least one prescription drug daily, and one in three take four or more. "This isn't healthy, period," Dr. Varon continued. "When one in three American adults takes four or more prescriptions, we are no longer practicing medicine. We are managing pharmaceutical dependency." The numbers behind America's prescription crisis: • U.S. prescription spending hit a staggering $806 billion in 2024, up 10% from the previous year. • Americans filled 4.98 billion retail prescriptions in 2025. That’s roughly 15 prescriptions for every man, woman, and child in the country. • Among adults 65 and older, nearly 9 in 10 take at least one prescription drug, and more than half now take five or more simultaneously, a rate that has roughly tripled over the past two decades. "The next FDA commissioner has a choice: keep rubber-stamping the industry that put us here, or take the side of the patient," Dr. Varon concluded. "Independent doctors are calling for the latter; a leader with the conviction to confront pharmaceutical dependency as the public health emergency it has become."

Truth
A virus or some other pathogen emerges somewhere in the world. The media shifts into apocalyptic mode. "Experts" appear to be predicting catastrophe. Computer models project millions dead, if the right circumstances coalesce. Politicians declare emergencies. Pharmaceutical companies announce new products. Social media turns into a digital panic attack. And ordinary people, who just wanted to buy eggs and walk the dog, suddenly feel like civilization is one cough away from collapse. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. This is how psychological bioterrorism works. The pathogen itself matters less than the emotional payload attached to it.

Common sense.
Can We Talk About Hantavirus Without the Hysteria? Hantavirus is real, serious, and extraordinarily rare—but the media panic cycle is making fear feel larger than the facts. IMA President and Chief Medical Officer Dr. Joseph Varon (@joevaron) explains why public health needs proportion, context, and calm credibility in his latest article, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘏𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘳𝘶𝘴 𝘗𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘤 𝘔𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦: 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘙𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘋𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘉𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘔𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳, published by @brownstoneinst.

Will someone please just commit “scarf demon lady” to the looney bin?
FFS, they're doing it again: Deb Birx, former Covid Task Force Coordinator, calls for "widely available" PCR "testing" for hantavirus, hints it should be used in schools "Because we're not testing populations... we don't really know whether there are subclinical cases" "There could be more human-to-human transmission than we actually see" "It's never good to track viruses through symptoms, we should be tracking viruses through blood tests like PCR, we learned that with Covid" "Many universities were able to open and schools were able to open because they provided weekly testing" "We need to make testing more widely available to those who need it"

it seems suddenly vogue to blackpill on "they are doing the thing again" with the charlatan cohort of public health hustlers going all in on hanta, but let me paint a different picture: this is a good thing. hanta will not live up to billing and lacks pandemic potential. using it as a bugbear will fall flat and those attempting to do so will reveal themselves as unserious and untrstworthy. they are lighting the last shreds of their credibility on fire. this is a gift. let them. heck, lean in. for does not the master tell us:

🚨 EVERYONE IS WATCHING THE HANTAVIRUS SCARE BUT MISSED THE REAL SCANDAL🚨 They just blew their own cover 💥 They just proved they knew all about the *vaccine* dangers before COVID‼️ The U.S. Army/NIAID biodefense world had already tested a genetic-instruction hantavirus vaccine in humans. Enrollment: Feb. 19, 2019 – Nov. 4, 2019 Developed by USAMRIID / Fort Detrick. Supported by NIAID / NIH the Military Infectious Disease Program. Manufactured/supported by Aldevron. Delivered by PharmaJet needle-free injection. This one did NOT even use lipid nanoparticles, which cause even more damage, to help it enter our cells. And even without LNPs: ⚠️98% had local adverse events. ⚠️65% had systemic adverse events. ⚠️15% of vaccine recipients had related Grade 3 symptoms. It is now crystal clear that long BEFORE COVID, federal biodefense actors already had human data showing genetic-instruction vaccine platforms were highly reactogenic and dangerous❗️ That matters legally⚖️👨🏻‍⚖️ Under EUA law, recipients were REQUIRED to be informed of the significant known and POTENTIAL risks and “the extent to which such benefits and risks are unknown.” 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(e)(1)(A)(ii). FDA labeling rules also require warnings when there is reasonable evidence of a clinically significant hazard causation does not have to be definitively proven first. 21 C.F.R. § 201.57(c)(6)(i). **They have yet to update their labels for what we already know currently: Spikevax, RSV mNEXSPIKE… And informed-consent regulations REQUIRE disclosure of reasonably FORESEEABLE RISKS or discomforts. 21 C.F.R. § 50.25. So if federal actors already knew genetic vaccine platforms could produce widespread reactions, and they failed to disclose that platform history and unknowns before pushing COVID mRNA products, that is not just an oversight….not just an oopsie. That is a direct informed-consent and EUA disclosure failure. 🔹They knew the platform family carried risks. 🔹They withheld the platform history. 🔹They sold it as routine. That is the violation.🆘 Your move DOJ

you're villifying the wrong people and arguing by false equivalence, simon. people still trust science, they just do not trust "science imposed upon them by experts at the point of a gun." no one is saying "airplanes don't fly" or "computers don't compute." they are saying "you lied about climate change, epidemiology, trade offs with products like roundup, GRAS designations, nutrition, race, gender, and 500 other topics>' and many of these criticisms have validity. and in response, the experts blame the questioner and demand deference. and those who refuse to engage on facts rarely have the facts on their side. trust was lost because "the experts" proved not only untrustworthy, but outright dictatorial. they faked evidence and data, made up wild pseudoscientific theories, and vilified sound science, and pushed utter fakery in its place. they censored opposition and claimed "the science was settled" to prevent investigation into their frauds. and they forced the whole world at the expense of lives and trillions of dollars of lost welfare to play along. it was high handed, dishonest, tyranny. have you stopped to consider that they earned this loss of faith? because they did. MIT wrote a literal article about "anti mask twitter" which it vilified by claiming “most fundamentally, the groups we studied believe that science is a process, not an institution.” as though it proved we had somehow turned our backs on science. but we did not. science is and must be a process. it is never an institution. that's dogma, not the methods of bacon. we did not stop trusting science, the experts stopped performing it and were dancing around in the flensed skinsuit of scientific method that they had stripped from the bones that made it valid: dispute, dissent, replication, validation - open and honest discourse. if you want to win back trust, you need to restore open debate and engagement, share methods, means, and data. wailing about "they won't trust us!" and blaming the folks who called out the deviation from sound science is just another arrogant presumption for institutions to dictate doctrine. you want to respect for sceince? start respecting to process of science again.
The collapse of trust in science is going to go down in history as one of the most sad, bizarre, and destructive social contagions of modern times. We fed billions, cured diseases and powered nations - yet people ran toward conspiracies instead.
