Paul Simon pays tribute to 9/11 by performing "The Sound Of Silence". A native New Yorker, you can see the deep emotion in Paul's face as he sings. Heartbreaking.

Fluoride is not an industrial waste product, it’s a natural anion. “Fluoride pollution” is a joke. There’s ZERO evidence of fluoride being harmful at low concentrations.
Fluoride is an industrial waste product. The leading proponent of water fluoridation was the Chief Toxicologist of the Manhattan Project, the group who developed the atomic bomb & needed enormous amounts of fluoride to do so His task was to help the government from being charged for fluoride pollution "Because of complaints that animals and humans have been injured by fluoride fumes in (the New Jersey) area... the University of Rochester is conducting experiments to determine the toxic effect of fluoride." - Lt. Col. Cooper B. Rhodes to General Leslie Groves, May 2, 1946 Declassified documents reveal that the publication of scientific information collected by atomic energy commission scientists that could increase the chance of litigation against the bomb program by workers or down wind communities was forbidden *information which would invite or tend to encourage claims against the Atomic Energy Commission or its contractors, such portions of articles to be published should be reworded or deleted." ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION, Oct 8, 1947 If water fluoridation was found to be harmful, the US bomb program, as well as many other flouride polluting industries would have been open to massive litigation Fluoride is an industrial waste product The first suggestion of water fluoridation came from the same Mellon institute that insisted asbestos was safe, after being tasked by the aluminum industry to cover for their fluoride pollution Many workers from factories in the aluminum industry have developed emphysema from airborne fluoride exposure Very few dentists are aware that the fluoride in public water supplies, a pharmaceutical grade product, is an industrial waste from the Florida Phosphate industry In the 1950s this industry was being sued by farmers and citizens living near those plants because it was kiIIing their cattle and crops Today, the Florida phosphate industry is prevented from having to dispose their flouride waste in a toxic waste dump because they ship it around the country in tanker trucks and dump it in our water supply Immediately after water fluoridation began, there was movement against it, led by Dr. George L Waldbott, who was also warning early on about of the dangers of emphysema from smoking He was smeared in the media and forgotten In the 1990s, the Senior Toxicologist of the EPA, Dr. William Marcus, said that the results of the cancer tests that had been done on fluoride were manipulated He said fluoride given to rats had produced bone cancer and liver cancer Dr. Marcus was fired and a federal judge ruled it was because of his outspoken opposition to fluoride Dr. Phyllis Mullenix, from the Forsyth Dental Institute, (who was a former proponent of fluoride), had helped invent a new technology for studying the neurotoxicity of chemicals, and found with a study, to her surprise, that very modest doses of fluoride cause lower IQ in chiIdren Within days of learning that her study was accepted for publication, Dr. Mullenix was fired from Forsyth Dental Center and never received grants ever again to continue her research She went from being an industry funded leading neuro toxicologist, at a Harvard affiliated Institute, to being ostracized and ignored RFK Jr. is right! We need to remove fluoride from our public water supply.

ACEP is deeply concerned by this week's CDC panel vote to stop recommending hepatitis B vaccines for all newborns. Families deserve vaccine information grounded in science. We urge the CDC to retain the current evidence-based approach. 🔗 below for more. bit.ly/48CPKG6
