ays there's no cure but you can treat it with Botox, you know which they use the technical name for, and that you'll have to keep doing it for the rest of your life. I think the last time I priced it was $900 of Botox per treatment and I'd have to go back once a month times I don't know 50,000 people. So 50,000 people, $900 a month. And for that kind of money what happens when you do a Google sear…

You could talk to other people. You could talk to Dr. Gerald Berke, B-E-R-K-E. He'll pop up in the search. You could ask him is there really a cure? Yes. Have you cured many people? Yes. Has Scott done a publicity campaign so that people would know this cure is available? I have. In fact there was a People feature story about me just to highlight that there's a cure. Do you think that comes up if you do a search? Nope. Nope. I don't even know if you could ever find it but it wouldn't be anywhere near the top.

So I did a whole publicity, like I spent a lot of time talking to news people and outlets and magazines so that other people could do a Google search. This is exactly why I did it. I did it for the SEO. I did it so it would show up on a Google search. Didn't work. It worked for a little while. For a little while you could find it but it eventually got pushed down.

So that's the world you live in. You've got a Mitch McConnell who I have to assume is corrupt because otherwise he would have retired. I see no other explanation except corruption. You've got a corrupt Joe Biden with a corrupt family situation. Whatever happened with this Obama story and Beau Biden, if it's true it looks corrupt to me. You've got the ADL which is pretending to be defending the people who need to be defended but it's a joke. It's a corrupt organization, just an organ of the corrupt Democrat Party. We've got a coup in progress that's masked by the legal system but the 14th Amendment stuff is just a coup. I don't know what else to call it. And yeah I mean if January 6 was okay this was a coup.

So is there anything that's not corrupt? You know and we're talking about bringing masks back. We're talking about requiring vaccinations after hearing my Botox story. Would you get a vaccination now? I realize they're different companies but it does tell you what an environment you're in. You're in an environment of zero trust. And the reason there's a zero trust environment is that everybody's corrupt. Every organization is corrupt. All of them.

You trust Alex Berenson? Good luck. Yeah I mean I get that. I get that the critics got some stuff right but there's nobody you can trust. Yeah I wouldn't confuse somebody who agrees with you with somebody who's credible. Those are not the same things. Because you know I believe he questioned everything about the pandemic and got three quarters of it right. Is that about right? He basically said everything was no matter what they said and he was probably right 75% of the time which is impressive. It's pretty impressive actually. But somebody was going to be right and that's the part the public doesn't see. For any question that's binary, it's either true or it's not true, won't there always be people on both sides? So you can guarantee that somebody's gonna be right but not because they're smart. There just had to be somebody right because there were only two choices and there were people on both sides. So of course somebody was going to be right.

Dr. Peter McCullough says the house of medicine is on fire. True. And Dr. Jordan Peterson just called out Dr. McCullough for not understanding a study in a really basic way. So if Dr. McCullough is your standard, he also I think was right about a lot of stuff, right? Wasn't he right about a lot of stuff? And it is in his skepticism. I think his skepticism was more right than wrong. But it's also true that the examples he used were embarrassingly misinterpreted. Both things can be true. So the medical community seems completely fraudulent.

Somebody found the, how hard did you have to look for it before you found my surgical cure? Success rates ratio of 50 to 80 percent with surgery is not for every patient. Well that's true but Mount Sinai is also not the experts at that surgery. If you talk to the person who invented it it's closer to a 75 percent improvement but you do have to pick. You have to pick your patients. That is correct. If you don't have some selectivity about the patients it'll be lower of course.

You were maybe, Rupert, maybe the vax data was done by age and by comorbidity. Do you think it was? Maybe. I'll give you the maybe on that. But Dr. Peterson asked the question and I would have asked the same one. 75 is not a complete cure. No 75 percent are people who are happy that they had functional voices. So do I sound cured? Does it sound like you can't understand what I say? That's a complete cure. So but not for every person. That's true. Peop

le had very various forms of success. We don't judge you for getting vaxed. Well most of you do actually. Yeah most of you who are mad at my vaccination status are comparing it to your own choices for a different body. Now I don't know how many times I have to say that. It's stupid but I'm just giving up on it for now. I'm just going to give up on it because I don't know how you can, I don't know…
