  • On Donald Trump (and Hunter Biden)

    Alex Berenson - Jun 9th 2023 12:39pm EDT

    I’ve been wary of writing about Donald Trump’s indictments. You know I don’t like the guy. My anger at him has already wrongfooted me once. The Stormy Daniels “hush money” case from Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg turned out to be a steaming pile of dung, a half-baked legal theory based on testimony of a […]

  • On the cowardice of the superrich

    Alex Berenson - Jun 8th 2023 6:11pm EDT

    What follows is a full list of chief executives of big companies who called out governmental overreach in 2020. Elon Musk. And, umm… Elon Musk. When lockdowns cratered the economy, I figured CEOs and Wall Street titans would push back, especially once they saw how little risk Covid posed to their employees. I was wrong. […]

  • On Section 230 and Instagram’s child pornography problem

    Alex Berenson - Jun 7th 2023 7:09pm EDT

    Instagram has a problem with child sexual abuse. Instagram – and its parent company, Meta Platforms, which also owns Facebook – do not seem to care. The Wall Street Journal ran a devastating piece today on child pornography and rape networks that Instagram does not merely tolerate but facilitates. — (INFORMATION AND ANALYSIS YOU WON’T […]

  • UPDATE: Why the Covid vaccine myocarditis deaths in South Korea matter so much

    Alex Berenson - Jun 6th 2023 5:36pm EDT

    I know you’re busy. So when I cover new research, I try to find the crucial nuggets and highlight them quickly for you. I also try not to oversell what data or studies say. But in yesterday’s Stack about a crucial new paper on fatal mRNA-driven myocarditis, I may have inadvertently undersold why the study […]

  • BREAKING: Myocarditis from mRNA Covid jabs likely killed hundreds of healthy young adults globally, a new study suggests

    Alex Berenson - Jun 5th 2023 3:53pm EDT

    Myocarditis caused by mRNA Covid vaccinations killed 12 South Koreans under 45, Korean researchers have reported in a bombshell paper. In eight deaths, doctors did not initially realize vaccine-caused myocarditis had killed the victims. The fatalities were labeled generically as “sudden cardiac deaths,” but autopsies proved the link, the researchers wrote. “Vaccine-related myocarditis was the […]

  • URGENT: Joe Biden is about to pick the worst possible person to become the next CDC head

    Alex Berenson - Jun 2nd 2023 6:48pm EDT

    Just what America needs. Another Covid hysteric running the Centers for Disease Control. Proving it has learned all the wrong lessons since 2021, the Biden Administration is about to choose Dr. Mandy Cohen to replace Dr. Rochelle Walensky as director of the Centers for Disease Control. Cohen shares the same health authoritarian impulses as Walensky. […]

  • URGENT: Twitter’s own lawyers believed the company could not successfully defend its Covid vaccine censorship policies in court

    Alex Berenson - Jun 2nd 2023 9:14am EDT

    Twitter was likely to lose Berenson v Twitter, my federal lawsuit against the company for banning me over my mRNA vaccine reporting, Twitter’s lawyers concluded after reviewing internal documents related to the ban. The documents, whose details remain secret but which the lawyers called “problematic” and “sensitive,” also show Twitter’s most senior executives disagreed over […]

  • How Ron DeSantis can win, Part 2

    Alex Berenson - May 31st 2023 1:11pm EDT

    The national mood is bleak. American defeats are piling up: Military humiliation in west Asia. Soaring budget deficits and inflation. Rising crime and acceptance of antisocial behavior and drug use. In the White House, an ineffective Democratic president challenged by a Kennedy. But the answer comes from somewhere else, from a Sunshine State governor named […]

  • How DeSantis can (or can’t) win, Part 1A

    Alex Berenson - May 30th 2023 5:22pm EDT

    Not surprisingly, this afternoon’s Unreported Truths on Florida governor Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump has generated a loud response, with lots of interesting (and some nasty) emails to me. Here are some of the most interesting, presented unedited and without editorial comment: — (LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING? SUBSCRIBE! DON’T? SUBSCRIBE ANYWAY!) Subscribe now — Hi […]

  • How Ron DeSantis can win

    Alex Berenson - May 30th 2023 1:01pm EDT

    FIRST OF TWO PARTS Two years ago, Ron DeSantis was as much of a hero to me as any politician had ever been. Other leaders had bent the knee to the health authoritarians who pretended Covid was the plague. Not DeSantis. He locked down late, then reopened almost immediately. He fought teachers unions and county […]

  • A Supreme Court justice speaks out against Covid lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and censorship – and enrages the left

    Alex Berenson - May 24th 2023 1:52pm EDT

    Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch just proved the simmering battles over Covid and civil liberties are nowhere near done. School closings, lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and censorship efforts have ended. But public health authoritarians and politicians who imposed them are in no hurry to give up the powers they seized. They will attack anyone who speaks […]

  • Some good news! (Really)

    Alex Berenson - May 23rd 2023 1:57pm EDT

    Finally, a happy ending. In December, I wrote about Yulia Hicks, a 14-year-old North Carolina girl denied a lifesaving kidney transplant for the crime of being unvaccinated. Transplant surgeons at Duke University Hospital told her parents that Yulia could not stay on the transplant list if she did not have a Covid shot, even though […]

  • From a reader whose wife suffered severe post-mRNA vaginal bleeding

    Alex Berenson - May 22nd 2023 4:25pm EDT

    Sometimes a personal story captures the truth more accurately than all the data in the world. (Posted unedited, with a couple of comments in brackets) Alex, I am a proud owner of Pandemia and a paid subscriber to your stack. I have to admit occasionally I’ve left the stacks unread in the inbox because I’ve […]

  • URGENT: Huge new study shows mRNA Covid jabs sharply raise the risk of severe vaginal bleeds

    Alex Berenson - May 22nd 2023 1:12pm EDT

    Women 45 and over had a high risk of severe vaginal bleeding after receiving mRNA Covid shots, Swedish researchers found after studying almost 3 million women. The increased risk lasted for at least three months after women received a shot and was even higher after the third shot than the first two. That finding suggests […]

  • The Covid hysterics will not quit

    Alex Berenson - May 19th 2023 3:18pm EDT

    Dr. Craig Spencer has been a Covid shrieker from the beginning. Before Covid, Spencer was best-known for wandering around New York City while sick with Ebola, a virus that kills half the people it infects. But Spencer’s laissez-faire attitude toward infectious disease deserted him when Sars-Cov-2 arrived in New York. At the time, Spencer was […]

  • Social media censorship update: the Supreme Court keeps its Section 230 powder dry

    Alex Berenson - May 18th 2023 5:49pm EDT

    On Thursday, the Supreme Court unanimously found that social media companies cannot be held liable for hosting content from terrorist groups like the Islamic State. But the biggest legal question facing social media companies, and the hundreds of millions of Americans who use them, remained unanswered. The Court made no judgment on the federal law […]

  • Breathe deep

    Alex Berenson - May 16th 2023 5:46pm EDT

    Aggressive use of ventilators may have killed some Covid patients, a new paper from Northwestern University researchers suggests. Covid itself has a “relatively low mortality rate” compared to other respiratory illnesses, the researchers found after examining about 600 patients with severe pneumonia. Yet Covid patients remained intubated longer than other patients and developed secondary bacterial […]

  • The worst four minutes you’ll have today

    Alex Berenson - May 14th 2023 3:26pm EDT

    It’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. On Twitter, this is called a “supercut,” a quick compilation of short takes from several different videos. It runs just under four minutes and has received 42 million views so far. It deserves more. Make yourself watch it, painful as it is. — […]

  • Dr. Jay Bhattacharya speaks out…

    Alex Berenson - May 13th 2023 4:11pm EDT

    This just in: Dr. Jay Bhattacharya has a new Substack podcast on the flaws of Covid/scientific journalism. For three years, Jay has been one of the academic and intellectual leaders of Team Reality, and he’s a good and honest guy to boot… well worth a listen. The Illusion of Consensus Coming Soon… The Illusion of […]

  • A quick update on Berenson v Biden

    Alex Berenson - May 12th 2023 1:42pm EDT

    We filed Berenson v Biden exactly one month ago today. Since then… not much has happened. And not much may for a while. Why? Berenson v Twitter makes for an instructive contrast. — (COMPARE AND CONTRAST. ALSO, SUBSCRIBE.) Subscribe now — Following my August 2021 ban, I sued Twitter on Dec. 20, 2021 in federal […]

  • Unreported Truths isn’t going anywhere (for now!)

    Alex Berenson - May 11th 2023 11:50am EDT

    And on further review… the move has been overturned. Unreported Truths is staying on Substack. I gave moving to Rumble and Locals a lot of thought. It was the right decision financially. It would have meant a pay raise and even more importantly a multi-year guarantee, saving me from having to worry about churn (having […]

  • On the Opium Wars, then and now

    Alex Berenson - May 10th 2023 3:11pm EDT

    Hola, amigos! I know I haven’t rapped at ya (as the literally legendary Jim Anchower used to write) in a few days – I’ve been busy working on a couple of pieces that are taking a bit longer to come together. In the meantime, I thought I’d offer two Twitter threads about drugs and drug […]

  • Tell Your Children

    Alex Berenson - May 5th 2023 3:02pm EDT

    Cannabis now causes up to 1 in 4 cases of newly diagnosed schizophrenia in young men, Danish researchers have found. Based on their analysis, cannabis is now by far the highest non-genetic risk factor for schizophrenia, a devastating mental illness. Schizophrenia’s best-known symptoms are paranoia and hallucinations, but the illness also damages motivation and even […]

  • Quick poll: Would you be interested in a book of the best Unreported Truth Stacks (with annotations and an introduction about where we stand three years in?)

    Alex Berenson - May 3rd 2023 4:03pm EDT

    Many of you have asked me when I am going to write a sequel to PANDEMIA, focused on everything that has happened since – the failure of the vaccines, rising excess deaths, and on a more personal note my free speech battles. I want to, but as a practical matter I cannot spend six months […]

  • On targeting a university president for the thoughtcrime of questioning how well mRNA shots work

    Alex Berenson - May 3rd 2023 12:12pm EDT

    Before a reporter at the Philadelphia Inquirer decided to ruin his life, Dr. Mark Tykocinski wasn’t exactly controversial. Tykocinski, 70, has spent his life in academic medicine as a pathologist and cancer researcher. Last year, Philadelphia’s 8,400-student Thomas Jefferson University named him its president, capping his career – which included a short stint with Dr. […]
