  • Thank you for your trust and support!

    Alex Berenson - Oct 16th 2024 2:05pm EDT

    When Twitter banned me and my journalism on Aug. 28, 2021, I knew it shouldn’t have. (So did lots of you.) I knew the tweet that provoked my suspension hadn’t violated Twitter’s rules. I knew Covid vaccine mandates were coming and the White House hated my reporting. I knew outside pressure had driven the censorship. […]

  • A quick programming note! Tomorrow morning Chris Cuomo and I are having a live video chat/debate about the failure of US politics, right here on Substack!

    Alex Berenson - Oct 14th 2024 3:42pm EDT

    Excited to report Chris Cuomo (formerly of CNN, now on NewsNation, forever Andrew’s brother) and I will have a live dialogue/debate tomorrow on the failure of the American political system to respond to everything from the overdose crisis to our growing housing shortage. It’ll be on the Substack app at 11 AM Eastern – hope […]

  • The rot in medicine and public health is growing worse and worse

    Alex Berenson - Oct 14th 2024 2:40pm EDT

    I can’t stop thinking about the misleading way a top physician at the Cleveland Clinic presented the results of a paper he co-authored last week. The study was good news. That’s the truth. As I wrote on Friday, It showed that for the vast majority of people1, Covid had no long-term heart problems. Yet the […]

  • On the awful Catch-22 the media and public health face over Covid jabs

    Alex Berenson - Oct 11th 2024 5:08pm EDT

    Everyone hates mRNA. That’s no exaggeration. The new Covid “vaccine” season started last month. It’s shaping up even worse (for Moderna and Pfizer and the Centers for Disease Control) than last year’s. In deep blue New York State, under 5 percent of people have received an mRNA jab this fall, including not even 1 percent […]

  • URGENT: Authors of a big new paper on Covid’s heart risks presented its results in a misleading way likely to scare people the paper itself shows are not in danger

    Alex Berenson - Oct 11th 2024 10:37am EDT

    On Wednesday, the Cleveland Clinic released frightening news: “History of COVID-19 Doubles Long-term Risk of Heart Attack, Stroke and Death” The renowned medical center was publicizing new research led by Dr. Stanley Hazen, one of its top physicians. He and other scientists examined the medical records of people infected with Covid in 2020 and found […]

  • UPDATE: Los Angeles Times writer Michael Hiltzik did respond (sort of) to my email taking him apart last night.

    Alex Berenson - Oct 6th 2024 2:52pm EDT

    Last night, I published my back-and-forth with Michael Hiltzik, a lockdown and mRNA Covid jab fanatic who writes for the Los Angeles Times. In it, Hiltzik asked me if my views on the mRNA shots had changed since 2021, and I responded that it had – that it had in fact “worsened considerably,” as the […]

  • Why Substack is so much more powerful than old media – in two emails

    Alex Berenson - Oct 5th 2024 9:17pm EDT

    On Friday, Stanford University held a one-day conference about Covid and its aftermath called “Pandemic Policy: Planning the Future, Assessing the Past.” Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, the Stanford epidemiologist who risked his career to fight lockdowns in 2020, put the event together. I was lucky enough to attend – and speak on a panel. The discussions […]

  • Children who received mRNA Covid shots died SIX TIMES as often as unjabbed kids in a very large database

    Alex Berenson - Oct 2nd 2024 12:47pm EDT

    The study about Covid and asthma in American kids and teens has gone mostly unnoticed. It hasn’t been cited once since it was published in June. Which may be why no one has raised an alarm over the stunning figures buried in its appendix about deaths among mRNA Covid-vaccinated kids. They show that 354 of […]

  • VERY URGENT: Covid-19 mRNA vaccines increased the risk of asthma in children, a study of 200,000 kids shows

    Alex Berenson - Oct 1st 2024 1:34pm EDT

    Children who received mRNA Covid shots were more likely to develop asthma in the next year than kids who didn’t take them, Taiwanese researchers have found after studying health records from over 200,000 American kids. The children were at higher risk whether or not they later suffered a Covid infection – striking evidence that the […]

  • URGENT: The left is going to war on the First Amendment

    Alex Berenson - Sep 30th 2024 2:48pm EDT

    In the last 48 hours, two extraordinary videos have arrived on X. The first features John Kerry, the Democratic candidate for President in 2004. The second is of Bill Gates, the world’s fifth-richest man and, with George Soros, its top left-leaning charity funder. Kerry’s video runs a mere two minutes. Gates’s lasts barely 30 seconds. […]

  • Matt Taibbi speaks the truth

    Alex Berenson - Sep 30th 2024 11:43am EDT

    I am hoping to get you several important stories over the next few days. In the meantime, please read the address that journalist and free speech advocate (until recently those two things were exactly the same, but no more) Matt Taibbi gave in Washington on Sunday afternoon. where he warned: Our government has moved past […]

  • What Unreported Truths means to me (and, I hope, to you too)

    Alex Berenson - Sep 27th 2024 5:15pm EDT

    Last month, I offered a free signed copy of PANDEMIA (or any of my books) to the first 100 four-year Unreported Truths subscribers who asked. To my surprise, we hit the century mark within hours. I’ve now mailed out books to the first 100. I apologize to the hundreds of you who missed out. Sometimes […]

  • Your thoughts on free speech (and why college students don’t seem to care about it, much less fight for it)

    Alex Berenson - Sep 26th 2024 9:56am EDT

    Yesterday, I lamented limp student attendance at my free speech speech1 at the University of North Carolina in an article headlined Why don’t college students care about free speech? The question was meant rhetorically, it must have resonated. Many of you emailed with your thoughts – most serious, some less so. Some of the best […]

  • Why don’t college students care about free speech?

    Alex Berenson - Sep 25th 2024 12:56pm EDT

    Last night, James Lawrence – my lawyer in Berenson v Biden – and I had the privilege of speaking at University of North Carolina about the threats to free speech. The event, at the student union, was well-publicized and -run. Our hosts, the university’s Student and Alumni Free Speech Alliances, even offered free pizza. The […]

  • We deserve better elites*

    Alex Berenson - Sep 23rd 2024 7:04pm EDT

    Again, we’ve had a look at the hidden rot among our self-styled betters. Again, it’s hard to escape the feeling they’re out for themselves and themselves alone. Two separate, unrelated scandals involving government officials and journalists blew up late last week, both revealing astounding hypocrisy. In New York City, Dr. Jay Varma, a top epidemiologist, […]

  • On the enraging – and evil – hypocrisy of public health authoritarians

    Alex Berenson - Sep 20th 2024 3:30pm EDT

    Warning: this video of a top epidemiologist bragging about hosting sex parties during Covid and forcing mRNA jabs on adults captures everything wrong with public health in 17 minutes. Prepare to be enraged. Yesterday, the Canadian comedian Steven Crowder1 released video clips of Dr. Jay K. Varma talking about his group sex exploits during 2020 […]

  • URGENT: A stunning new paper suggests Covid jabs sharply raise the risk of death or heart failure after heart attacks

    Alex Berenson - Sep 19th 2024 3:51pm EDT

    Being vaccinated against Covid sharply increased the risk heart attack patients would die or suffer heart failure after heart attacks, a new Spanish study shows. Over a six-month period after their heart attacks, Covid vaccinated patients had nearly double the risk of unjabbed ones. The risk appeared concentrated in patients who were both vaccinated and […]

  • Does Kamala Harris want to decriminalize fentanyl and other drugs – and release people convicted of possessing them?

    Alex Berenson - Sep 13th 2024 3:10pm EDT

    The question to Kamala Harris at a 2019 Texas conference couldn’t have been clearer: “Would you broadly use your pardon power as president to release federal prisoners who are in prison merely for drug possession and drug-related crimes?” [emphasis added] Harris, four months into her failed 2020 presidential run, responded just as clearly: “Absolutely, and […]

  • On the rise – and risks – of machine gambling (Part 2 of 2)

    Alex Berenson - Sep 12th 2024 4:39pm EDT

    (Second of two parts. For Part 1, about the radical changes in the last generation that have made slot and poker machines so much more addictive, click here.) No one has written a compelling memoir of video gambling addiction. No great novel or movie has described it: no Trainspotting or Requiem for a Dream or […]

  • On the rise – and risks – of machine gambling (Part 1 of 2)

    Alex Berenson - Sep 12th 2024 9:32am EDT

    FIRST OF TWO PARTS Addiction comes in many flavors. But some grab our attention more than others. Drug (and alcohol) addicts tend to be young, noisy, and male. They’re frequently dangerous. So society spends a huge amount of time dealing with and thinking about them. Almost as much time as they spend thinking and talking […]

  • On the cowardice of Kamala Harris

    Alex Berenson - Sep 10th 2024 2:11pm EDT

    Why won’t Kamala Harris tell voters her positions on basic political issues? Yesterday, CNN reported Harris had promised the American Civil Liberties Union she would support government-funded sex-change surgeries for illegal immigrants1. She made that pledge in 2019. Does it hold now that she’s the Democratic nominee for president? She won’t say. When CNN asked, […]

  • Donald Trump comes out swinging for free speech…

    Alex Berenson - Sep 9th 2024 1:11pm EDT

    Reporters spend a lot of time warning Donald Trump is a threat to the Constitution and civil liberties. They spend less time – okay, let’s be honest, no time – covering him when he promises to protect the First Amendment. As he did at a rally in Wisconsin on Saturday, when he said he would […]

  • C’mon, Tucker!

    Alex Berenson - Sep 6th 2024 11:23am EDT

    Oh, I hate having to write this one. I like Tucker Carlson. As I’ve said before, during Covid, “we had a certain ride or die relationship.” He stood by me even after the rest of Fox News panicked over my mRNA skepticism. (Haven’t seen me on there much since he left, have you?) And just […]

  • Why my amended complaint in Berenson v Biden matters so much

    Alex Berenson - Sep 4th 2024 4:23pm EDT

    Today, James Lawrence and I filed an amended complaint in Berenson v Biden, my federal lawsuit against top White House and Pfizer officials for their conspiracy to make Twitter ban me in 2021. Some of you have told me you want me to write about issues other than my own suit. I get it. I […]

  • URGENT: PART 2 OF THE PFIZER/WHITE HOUSE FILES IS LIVE

    Alex Berenson - Sep 3rd 2024 4:40pm EDT

    If you’ve wondered where I’ve been, now you know. I’ll have much more about what this new evidence means for Berenson v Biden very soon (spoiler alert, it’s EXCELLENT for our case). But for now, thank Elon Musk for opening the Twitter archives – and read the whole story on X: — (And please support […]
