Profiles in Criminality, Grenon Bro's and Trump the traitor

America's President's Apparent Health Advisors:  Mark Grenon, Joseph Grenon, Jordan Grenon, and Jonathan Grenon sell and distribute a product called Miracle Mineral Solution through their Genesis II Church of Health and Healing.

Nothing is beyond the pale anymore.  While Trump's 40% keep getting nastier and more disconnected from reality, all because they refuse to take any responsibility for their own mistakes, hate learning and education and love pissing off liberals above all else - topped off by zero conception for the march of time and evolution.  It's a recipe for utter self destruction that seems to be unfold unabated, take this recent plunge into self-delusion:
Mark Grenon styles himself as “archbishop” of Genesis II – a Florida-based outfit that claims to be a church but which in fact is the largest producer and distributor of chlorine dioxide bleach as a “miracle cure” in the US. He brands the chemical as MMS, “miracle mineral solution”, and claims fraudulently that it can cure 99% of all illnesses including cancer, malaria, HIV/Aids as well as autism.

Revealed: leader of group peddling bleach as coronavirus 'cure' wrote to Trump this week
Ed Pilkington in New York, April 24, 2020, Guardian.com

Mark Grenon wrote to Trump saying chlorine dioxide ‘can rid the body of Covid-19’ days before the president promoted disinfectant as treatment 


The leader of the most prominent group in the US peddling potentially lethal industrial bleach as a “miracle cure” for coronavirus wrote to Donald Trumpat the White House this week.
In his letter, Mark Grenon told Trump that chlorine dioxide – a powerful bleach used in industrial processes such as textile manufacturing that can have fatal side-effects when drunk – is “a wonderful detox that can kill 99% of the pathogens in the body”. He added that it “can rid the body of Covid-19”.

But wait, there's more!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Friday, April 17, 2020 
Justice Department Seeks to End Illegal Online Sale of Industrial Bleach Marketed as “Miracle” Treatment for COVID-19 
Court Orders Defendants to Stop Operating Website Selling Unlawful Bleach Product for Coronavirus Treatment 
The United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida has entered a temporary injunction halting the sale of an unapproved, unproven, and potentially dangerous coronavirus (COVID-19) treatment product, the Department of Justice announced today. 
In a civil complaint and accompanying court papers filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida today, the Department of Justice alleges that the defendants, Genesis II Church of Health and Healing (Genesis) and its principals, Mark Grenon, Joseph Grenon, Jordan Grenon, and Jonathan Grenon sell and distribute a product called Miracle Mineral Solution, also referred to as MMS.  
Genesis sells MMS through its websites claiming that it will cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent Coronavirus, which includes COVID-19, as well as other diseases including Alzheimer’s, autism, brain cancer, HIV/AIDS, and multiple sclerosis, among others.  MMS is a chemical product which, when combined with the included activator, creates a powerful bleach product that the defendants market for oral ingestion.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has previously issued public warnings to consumers that MMS can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and symptoms of severe dehydration.  The Justice Department sought preliminary relief from the court. 
“The Department of Justice will take swift action to protect consumers from illegal and potentially harmful products being offered to treat COVID-19,” said Assistant Attorney General Jody Hunt.  “We will continue to work closely alongside our partners at the Food and Drug Administration to quickly shut down those selling illegal products during this pandemic.” 
“We will zealously pursue perpetrators of fraud schemes seeking to take advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said U.S. Attorney Ariana Fajardo Orshan for the Southern District of Florida.  “Not only are these products potentially harmful, but their distribution and use may prevent those who are sick from receiving the legitimate healthcare they need.” 
The complaint alleges that defendants’ disease-related treatment claims are unsupported by any well-controlled clinical studies or other credible scientific substantiation.  Additionally, the complaint asserts that MMS’s labeling is false and misleading and that since defendants make disease-related treatment claims about MMS in the absence of any clinical data, the products are misbranded.  
On April 8, 2020, FDA, jointly with the Federal Trade Commission, issued a Warning Letter to Defendants notifying them that they are violating federal law (both the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as well as the Federal Trade Commission Act) by, among other things, distributing unapproved new drugs and misbranded drugs in interstate commerce.  Despite this warning, the complaint alleges, the defendants not only continue to sell MMS with claims that it cures, mitigates, treats, or prevents Coronavirus, which includes COVID-19, but they have also expressly stated that they will not take corrective action. 
“Americans expect and deserve proven medical treatments and today’s action is a forceful reminder that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will use its legal authorities to quickly stop those who have proven to continuously threaten the health of the American public.  It is vital that sellers of drug products comply with the FD&C Act and do not sell products with false and misleading claims, especially to treat COVID-19 and other debilitating diseases, such as autism and Alzheimer’s disease,” said FDA Commissioner Stephen M. Hahn, M.D.   
“Despite a previous warning, the Genesis II Church of Healing has continued to actively place consumers at risk by peddling potentially dangerous and unapproved chlorine dioxide products.  We will not stand for this, and the FDA remains fully committed to taking strong enforcement action against any sellers who place unsuspecting American consumers at risk by offering their unproven products to treat serious diseases.” 
FDA’s previous warning to consumers about the dangers of MMS can be found here: https://www.fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/danger-dont-drink-miracle-mineral-solution-or-similar-products. 
The enforcement action filed today is being prosecuted by Senior Litigation Counsel Ross S. Goldstein and David A. Frank of the Department of Justice, Civil Division’s Consumer Protection Branch and Assistant U.S. Attorney Matthew Feeley of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida, with assistance from Associate Chief Counsel for Enforcement Joshua Davenport of the FDA, Office of General Counsel, Department of Health and Human Services. 
The claims made in the complaint are allegations that, if the case were to proceed to trial, the government must prove to receive a permanent injunction against the defendants.
Additional information about the Consumer Protection Branch and its enforcement efforts may be found at www.justice.gov/civil/consumer-protection-branch.

Considering my bias. Thanking Mom on International-Woman's Day.


Prost! πŸ»

The term "Bias" is often tossed around, yet how often do we examine our own biases and where they come from?

I am biased, I'm a thinker, a student of life and the world around me, a lover, a person who believes in family, community, creating, nurturing what I/we have, learning from sober science.  I’m not into domination, stealing what others have, self-importance or wielding power and pain over others - seems to me, and for who I am, that refining and living with a solid character is worth more than all those trappings of power and bling.  

Even if it means not having ‘stuff’ chained around my neck.  

For me, it’s the control of the kayaker that I strive for, as I'm swept down the cascade of time.  The dam builder’s control is a thing of passing domination, filled with fears of loss and fighting to hang onto what starts crumbling as soon as we build it.   Whereas the kayaker lives life, is present to living our fleeting moments, fully experiencing our day to days.  In the end, we all die and disappear back into the all.

Living a thoughtful life, getting to know oneself, not just the hero I want to be, but the bumbling fool who I am more often than I care to admit.  Still, I've learned to appreciate that it all gets lost in the sauce of who we are.  What’s left is a decent flawed man that strives to be a constructive part of world around him.  It’s all good because it’s the underlying character that matters most, not the transient trappings we collect and discard as we pass through our moments on this planet.

It’s what makes it possible for me to live aware of all aspects of life and our lives.  Being open to the beautiful and the people, while in full awareness That Our Greedy Society Failed Our Tests of Character, along with recognizing the monstrously destructive players out there who are ensuring worst outcomes.  

Trying to maintain balance as our future becomes the present populated with ever increasing destruction, loss, and grief.  It’ll be interesting discovering how l hold up as this slow motion global train wreck continues unfolding in our next couple decades, achieving unknown levels of ugly.  (It's an odd and profound sadness to be nearly 65 and thankful I'm not any younger.)

I blame my sweet baby sis for bringing on all this bellybutton gazing by waking me with the following text message for her sibs:

It's International Women's Day, 
so let's all drink a toast to our favorite international woman. 
Prost! 🍻





One thing leads to another.  Ildiko was a great mom and I’m certainly my mom’s son, and proud of it, which got me to thinking about my values and worldview.  She and my dad instilled curiosity and opened the world to me, but it’s mom that gave me the sensitivity to appreciate the world and we humans in a way most apparently can’t imagine.  

Thank you Mom for embodying the best humanity has to offer and for sharing it with me.
and
Thank you to all the wonderful woman of all ages who have come into my life and helped make my world a better place, and me, a better person !!!
Prost! πŸ»

"The Day Democracy Died" Sung by The Founding Fathers

     It depressing, I keep hoping for some awakening that never seems to happen.  We just get deeper and deeper into this quagmire of Me First self-delusion.
Trump wants to destroy the fabric of our society and apparently that fabric is not strong enough to withstand his ruthless bullying and liberals seem lost.
     Integrity, respect for others, honesty, good faith interest in learning, considering future consequences it's all shit on by the trump Republicans with god in their back pockets and a totalitarian disregard for two-thirds of this nation, while pulling a great fraud on the other third (with Putin's help).  This is the prelude to a self-inflicted national tragedy like none other, yet we sleep and the Democrats fumble and can't even inform and engage their own grassroots, let alone change any minds.  ... and still nobody out there.
