Kareem, I happen to be a former Virologist (I'm currently working in other areas of Drug Discovery, but for about 20 years my primary job was studying how Infectious Diseases evolve resistance to drugs). And I completely agree with you about Florida's Surgeon General. That "analysis" greatly exaggerated the risks, and downplayed the benefits, from the COVID vaccines.
Cause remember when we use to sit in the government yard in Trenchtown Oba,
Observing the hypocrites, yeah!
"Dr" Joseph Lapado
Nigerian immigrant
Received his MD & PhD (health policy) from Harvard. Can Harvard rescind his medical degree? Do we all remember the Frontline Doctors and Stella Immanuel (from Cameroon & rec'd her MD from Univ of Calabar in Nigeria) who touted hydroxychloroquine & went on about demon sperm & people falling ill from having sex with demons. This is the kind of utter nonsense the wrong-wingers are pushing. If there is not a more obvious use of racism in healthcare by using black doctors from Africa to push misinformation, then I'm totally stumped.
As to the leader of lies, fraud, graft, griftery (new word)😂, racism etc, may he, together with buddies Alex Jones, Mike Lindell, the senator from So. Carolina, Florida & Texas governors et al rot in the swampy morass of Florida. Maybe a worse hurricane will help.
Too much sun in Florida has baked the remaining brains of the senior population. Or is it just old age?
Kareem .Your words so potent. So truthful. Never stop. Speak truth to power. Thank you for your wisdom and courage.
I am fairly new to your newsletter, but not to your journalism, which is among the best. I appreciate the reporting and analysis of important news, stories often ignored or glossed over in Main Stream Media.
I so appreciate your thoughts this week (indeed as ever). Thank you for calling out misogyny wherever it lives as well as malevolent politics. I LOVED the Bob Marley video. It is a film all by itself, with of course the best soundtrack. The series you discussed sounds akin to Alexander McCall Smith's series The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, which is delightful, and respectful, and sharp and makes one want to move in with the characters also. I loved the way you phrased that!
Remdesivir makers gave DiSantis a check for $10.4 Million for his presidential war chest, and he dropped the mask mandate instantly, and now this! He doesn't care if people get Covid, Remdesivir will save the day...no, it won't, it will simply make its makers, his benefactors, billions.
Enjoy your work as always, Mr. Abdul-Jabbar. Fellow "substacker" and liberal Matt Taibbi wrote a terrific piece a few weeks ago about the election denial stories conducted by both the left and the right over the last two elections - https://taibbi.substack.com/p/memory-holed-the-election-was-hacked. Both sides are complicit in different narratives aiming to undermine the elected president. Not a good trend for democracy.
A historical footnote: "Adlai E. Stevenson today renounced his Democratic nomination for governor, saying he cannot run on the same slate as a disciple of political extremist Lyndon LaRouche." --L.A. Times archives, April 23, 1986
As usual, incisive critiques. I'd sure like to see you take on Turning Point's blatant - yet devious - misuse of non-profit "educational" activities to provide political platforms for Trumpist candidates! As to Florida, I think the climate there accentuates the advance of senility. Otherwise, how to account for elderly support of DeSantis' policies and actions?
Great piece as usual. Thanks for giving me a birthday present idea for my husband in terms of a new murder mystery series! Just one nuance on your Florida comments. It has the second or third highest % of population over 65, while CA ranks somewhere around 30th at 15%. This probably had some impact on Florida's death toll from Covid vs CA.
As always, I truly enjoy your thoughts on current events.
Question: Can your team verify the source for Donald Trump's quote? His Twitter account was permanently banned in January 2021, so the tweet image you included is most likely fake. I don't doubt he said the words, but I'd like to see a verified source for credibility. Thanks!
My question to Kareem is how does he know unequivocally beyond all reasonable doubt that Dr. Gorski is not a defender of the medical establishments status quo pro vaccine camp? There are multitudes of studies all around our beautiful globe showing alarming rates of encephalopothies of brain and heart in a wide range of age groups but particularly the young and how does he know absolutely that long Covid isnt caused by Mrna vaccines and not Covid proper? Are all of these studies anti liberal cabals by right wing physicians and medical researchers? Surely Kareem knows that when criticism ceases all groups become stupid.

When I sit down to watch the Jan 6 hearings in about an hour, I will have a bucket of snacks by my
side.

You Really Really need to get a decent proofreader. Your ideas are too valuable to be so ill-clothed.
Great stuff, as always. Off to check out the music and the mystery series (which I have passed by for similar reasons). Thank you!
Thursday Murder Club books are excellent. Thanks for suggesting - I read them all and want more!

Clearly "Dr Lapado" and "Dr Oz" graduated in the same class at Trump University.
