URGENT: A new court ruling shows the insane overreach of the PREP Act, which effectively bars ALL suits over the Covid jabs (not just against Pfizer/Moderna, against anyone)
Alex Berenson - Mar 12th 2024 12:26pm EDTOn Aug. 20, 2021, as his stepfather waited outside, a 14-year-old boy named Tanner Smith walked into a North Carolina high school for a Covid test. But the testing area doubled as a vaccination center, and once Tanner arrived, he was told he needed a Pfizer mRNA Covid shot. He told the vaccinators he had […]
Free speech under attack: the weaponization of defamation law vs. climate change skeptics
Alex Berenson - Mar 8th 2024 2:39pm EST(PART 1 of this article explained the background of climate scientist Michael Mann’s defamation lawsuit against commentators Mark Steyn and Rand Simberg – and the fact the United States has usually set a high bar for such cases, part of our commitment to free speech. Today: What happened after Mann sued – and the left’s […]

Yes, the global elites are even stupider and more tone-deaf than you imagined
Alex Berenson - Mar 6th 2024 9:22am ESTEvery part of this article will read like a parody. Only it’s real. Over the weekend, the richest man in India, Mukesh Ambani, spent about $150 million to marry off his youngest and fattest son, Anant, before various and assorted members of the global elite. It was the wedding of the year! Actually not, it […]
URGENT: The Supreme Court rules 9-0 that states must allow Donald Trump on the presidential ballot
Alex Berenson - Mar 4th 2024 11:27am ESTLawfare has limits. The Supreme Court just ruled unanimously, 9-0, that Americans must be allowed to decide for themselves whether Donald Trump should return to office in 2025. The Court struck down a Colorado Supreme Court ruling claiming that because Trump had engaged in “insurrection” on Jan. 6, 2021, he would not be allowed on […]
My Pensacola lecture on the First Amendment (part two)
Alex Berenson - Mar 4th 2024 9:50am EST(Second of two parts. Read Part 1 here.) (Note: Lot to write this week – more absurdity from the Centers for Disease Control, Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates reach new heights of self-parody, etc… but having presented Part 1 of the lecture, I wanted to give you the second part before all of that.) — […]
My Pensacola lecture: why the First Amendment matters, and why I fear for its future
Alex Berenson - Mar 2nd 2024 1:58pm EST(Note: If you saw the livestream, you’ll realize I didn’t stick exactly to this text. I don’t like reciting prepared notes – I feel like an actor in my own play. So I tend to riff. Also, I hadn’t finished writing the speech when I started speaking, so the last bit, when I talked more […]
Some good news!
Alex Berenson - Feb 27th 2024 2:04pm ESTSince Covid started, American universities have wanted nothing to do with me. I guess I’m not surprised these supposed citadels of free expression and debate don’t want anyone to question their Covid lockdown policies, much less their mRNA jab mandates. But I will admit to being a teeny… tiny… bit surprised that they won’t even […]
The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth
Alex Berenson - Feb 27th 2024 11:05am ESTLast night I walked through the evidence the mRNA jabs don’t save lives once people become ill enough with Covid to need hospitalization. But that piece was somewhat technical. What’s the 50,000-foot-view? Three years after mass jabs began, what do we know? (To find out, subscribe. Or wait a week.) Read more
On the Ohio State study showing vaccinated Covid patients had a HIGHER risk of death than the unvaccinated
Alex Berenson - Feb 26th 2024 9:18pm ESTThis is the paper I planned to write about yesterday before I took my trip down Misreading Article Lane. I’m revisiting my embarrassment, because it’s so important. On Feb. 6, Ohio State University researchers published a stunning finding – stunning to anyone overwhelmed by mainstream media mRNA propaganda since 2021, anyway. Vaccinated Covid patients hospitalized […]
VERY URGENT: CORRECTION/RETRACTION OF JUST RELEASED ARTICLE
Alex Berenson - Feb 25th 2024 8:49pm ESTUGH. Worst mistake in two years. My previous article claimed “a new study shows VACCINATED people with blood cancers were four times more likely to die after Covid infections than the unjabbed.” But I am wrong. A reader notes that the appendix shows “infection before vaccination” line refers to a “previous positive SARS-CoV-2 test… no […]
URGENT: A new study shows VACCINATED people with blood cancers were four times more likely to die after Covid infections than the unjabbed
Alex Berenson - Feb 25th 2024 7:59pm ESTIt is the last defense of the mRNA jabs, repeated endlessly by reporters and public health bureaucrats: Covid shots save lives. Even if they don’t stop infection or transmission, they keep people from being hospitalized or dying of Covid. Lately that defense has sprung leaks. Three weeks ago, researchers at Ohio State reported at their […]
Free speech is under attack all over
Alex Berenson - Feb 21st 2024 5:00pm EST(FIRST IN AN OCCASIONAL SERIES) In 1941, as the United States neared war with Germany and Japan, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt listed the “Four Freedoms” vital to life – and offered “freedom of speech” as the first freedom, even before “freedom of fear.” Roosevelt’s stirring words were part of a centuries-long American tradition of protecting […]

Alex Berenson - Feb 21st 2024 8:57am ESTFirst of all, thank you! After yesterday’s post about my back surgery, hundreds of you wrote to offer good wishes and prayers for recovery.

Quick update: I know I haven’t posted in a few days – I have a good excuse. I had surgery last Friday
Alex Berenson - Feb 20th 2024 3:32pm ESTFor the last three months, I’ve lived my own N of 1 medical experiment. I’m still waiting on the final results. If you’ve read PANDEMIA you know I’ve had a bad back for a long time. For the last 20 years it has gone out every once in a while, with pain ranging from bad […]
On the arrogance (and stupidity) of Pfizer’s Super Bowl ad – PART TWO
Alex Berenson - Feb 14th 2024 3:04pm EST(Second of two parts; read part one, including Pfizer’s history of lawbreaking, here) On Sunday, Pfizer – the drugmaker most associated with the mRNA Covid jabs – took a $14 million shot (so to speak) at burnishing its image. It worked about as well as the Covid vaccines have. Halfway through the Super Bowl, the […]
On the arrogance (and stupidity) of Pfizer’s Super Bowl ad
Alex Berenson - Feb 13th 2024 11:09am EST(PART 1 of 2) Hey, didya see that Super Bowl? The more things change… and I don’t mean the Chiefs winning again. When I covered Big Pharma for the New York Times during the aughts, the two most important companies I wrote about were Merck and Pfizer. Merck had problems, including its push of the […]
Whither Joe Biden?
Alex Berenson - Feb 9th 2024 4:10pm ESTWe’ve all seen it. Maybe with a parent. Or grandparent. Even a spouse, for the unluckiest of us. The slips are minor at first. The name of a friend forgotten, a birthday missed. An unsteady step. Then the problems become bigger and harder to miss. Memory gaps turn into sinkholes, missed steps into falls. Eventually, […]
URGENT: The report from prosecutors on Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents might be WORSE for him than an actual indictment
Alex Berenson - Feb 8th 2024 9:20pm ESTBe careful what you wish for. A federal investigation into classified documents found in President Biden’s home ended Thursday as a special prosecutor declined to charge Biden with mishandling protected information. “No criminal charges are warranted in this matter,” the 345th and final page of the report explains. But the first 344 pages of the […]
Andy Slavitt’s censorship efforts at the White House even extended to Amazon and the books it sold
Alex Berenson - Feb 6th 2024 7:23pm ESTAndrew Slavitt – the former senior advisor to the Biden administration’s Covid response team – is having himself a week. Last Wednesday, Slavitt told a Congressional committee he would ignore its subpoena demanding he testify about his efforts in 2021 to suppress reporting that raised doubts about the safety or efficacy of Covid vaccines. (Slavitt […]
On the rising danger of Democratic lawfare
Alex Berenson - Feb 5th 2024 4:55pm ESTEven dictatorships have judges. Which doesn’t mean they have justice. Democrats appear ever-more enamored with “lawfare” — a term that hardly existed before Donald Trump was elected president in 2016 — as they try to keep Trump from returning to the White House. Left-wing politicians, prosecutors, and lawyers may be sincere when they say they […]
URGENT: Ex-White House advisor Andy Slavitt is refusing to comply with a subpoena over questions about how he tried to censor me and others in 2021
Alex Berenson - Feb 4th 2024 2:45pm ESTAndrew Slavitt, the former Biden Administration operative who in 2021 helped conspire to violate my First Amendment rights and make Twitter ban me, has refused to comply with a Congressional subpoena to testify about his actions. Slavitt’s lawyers told the House Judiciary Committee last Wednesday he would ignore a subpoena ordering him to testify under […]
Jab math for children: Vaccinate almost 38,000 kids (with hundreds of serious side effects), stop one Covid hospitalization
Alex Berenson - Feb 2nd 2024 1:46pm ESTTo stop one severe Covid case in children aged 5-15, about 38,000 kids would need to be dosed with mRNA Covid jabs, British researchers have found. The report should be the final death knell for efforts to give young people mRNA shots, which the United States still has not stopped. Ignoring any other side effects, […]
The baby bust and the gender gap
Alex Berenson - Jan 30th 2024 12:40pm ESTSo much for the maternal instinct. Buried in a national poll from late 2023 is a stunning finding: American women are much less worried about falling fertility rates than men. Fewer than one in three women said they were concerned about the trend, compared to 43 percent of men. The data, from the respected American […]
They STILL won’t quit pushing the mRNAs
Alex Berenson - Jan 29th 2024 2:20pm ESTDr. Danielle Ofri wants you to take more mRNA jabs. She doesn’t understand why you won’t. Is she mad? No, she’s not mad, people, she’s not the kind of doctor who gets mad. She’s the caring, compassionate kind of doctor. Says so right on her Web page, she’s passionate “about the doctor–patient relationship and bringing […]
