Total Capture: Israel Owns the American State

The Israeli government is not the Jewish people. This piece is about one, not the other.

The 2027 National Defense Authorization Act is another iteration of the Israeli capture of American politics. The relationship has grown deeper, broader, and more institutionalized over time, to the point that the United States is now committing genocide in service of Israeli objectives.

Polyautoimmunity and Helminthic Therapy

Autoimmune diseases often cluster within the same individual and family. This article examines helminthic therapy through the lens of immune training, microbiome ecology, and transgenerational biology, exploring evidence that the absence of co-evolved organisms may contribute to immune dysregulation across diseases and generations. It reviews current research on regulatory T cells, the microbiome-immune axis, maternal transmission, and the broader implications of biome depletion for understanding autoimmune disease.

Relief for Whom? Arizona’s “Tax Cut” Bill

Relief for Whom?

The Republican-controlled Arizona legislature opened the 2026 session with a tax bill they call the Arizona One Big Beautiful Bill — a deliberate echo of Trump’s federal legislation. They passed it on party-line votes, twice, and Governor Hobbs vetoed it both times. They call it over a billion dollars in tax relief. It is. For the wealthy and large businesses.

Case Study, CSM: Gut Foundational Reference

Gut Barrier and Dysbiosis — Foundational Reference The gut system is the second major constitutional factor in this clinical picture. It is tightly coupled to the CNS system through the gut-vagus connection and through continuous inflammatory signaling originating at the intestinal barrier. LPS translocation increases the inflammatory load while the compromised vagal anti-inflammatory pathway can … Read more
