A mishmash of informed snark, piquant opinions, refined nastiness, occasional schmaltz, & tawdry graphics, served up continuously since 2006 by COSMIC CONNIE, aka CONNIE L. SCHMIDT. Covering New-Age/New-Wage culture & crapitalism, pop spirituality & religion, pop psychology, self(ish)-help, alt-health hucksterism, conspiranoia, business babble, media silliness, Scamworld, politix, & related (or occasionally unrelated) matters of consequence.
In 2008, Leonard Coldwell -- fake
doctor, cancer quack and at that time an enthusiastic cohort of
currently imprisoned serial scammer Kevin Trudeau -- vanity-published a
book called Instinct Based Medicine, a rambling, redundant collection of medical
misinformation and long rants against the medical profession
(some of which were justified but most of which were self-serving
distortions). The whole thing was framed around Coldwell's
dramatic narrative of his life as a Brave Maverick Doctor, and
the text was peppered with relentless promotions for his and some of his
buddies' frauducts and flopportunities.
A year or so later, as Trudeau's big scam the Global Information Network, or GIN, was taking off and Coldwell was reaping the benefits
as a featured speaker and owner of an unearned* downline in GIN's
multi-level marketing scheme, he repackaged Instinct Based
Medicine as The Only Answer to Cancer. This newer book used much of the same
material that was in the previous work but substituted
endorsements and testimonials from folks with whom he'd had a
falling-out with praise from some current-at-the-time buddies,
and there were new and more dramatic details in his Brave
Maverick Doctor and miracle-healer narrative. (For instance, in the newer book he added that he had cured his mommy of Hepatitis C when he was a mere youth, in addition to curing her of cirrhosis of the liver and liver cancer. There was no mention of Hep C in the older book. In any case, Hep C hadn't even been identified by medical science yet at the time he supposedly "cured" her.)
Coldwell and Trudeau divorced in 2012 when Trudeau kicked
Coldwell out of GIN, and since then Coldwell has spent a great
deal of time bad-mouthing Trudeau (justifiably) while
conveniently failing to acknowledge his own complicity in
Trudeau's scams. But most of his time and energy over the past
five years have been occupied trying to regain some traction in
Scamworld after no longer having the much more popular Kevin
Trudeau's teat to suck on.
I bought both Instinct Based Medicine and The Only
Answer to Cancer on the used-book marketplace for cheap. But
now it looks like I'm going to have to make yet a third
investment, eventually, because Lenny is currently poised to
release his newest English-language work, the long-awaited The
ONLY Cancer Patient Cure, which
you can now pre-order for $19.99 USD plus shipping and handling,
and you can only hope that the book eventually shows up at your
door some time in September.
The arrangement of text on the front cover makes it appear that
the title of the book is The Only Answer To®
The ONLY Cancer Patient Cure, a title as mangled and
nonsensical as much of Lenny's prose. In fact, Lenny himself -- and/or the admin responsible for handling many of his "blog posts" -- apparently believe that this is the real title. Or maybe it's just ham-handed SEO.
But as you can see by what I assume is the picture of the book's cover, the spine (that bit on the left-hand side of the graphic) makes it
pretty clear that the title is simply, The ONLY Cancer Patient Cure,
which indicates to me that The Only Answer To®bit on the front cover is merely for branding purposes. However,
since the phrase The Only Answer To®
isn't part of the new book's actual title, it seems to be kind of
a stretch, but then, I'm no branding expert and Lenny and his
publisher clearly are.
According to a blurb on the front cover of the new magnum
dopus, "100% of Profits Go To Non-Profit." In
other words, it appears that Lenny plans as usual to funnel money
into one of his numerous "non-profits" -- such as his
much-boasted about Foundation for Crime and Drug Free Schools and Health
for Children -- in order to avoid
paying taxes on sales of the book, while granting himself
bragging rights as a high-minded humanitarian who has no desire
to make money from other people's desperation. There's no telling
how many "non-profits" he has in the US and in Germany,
but I strongly suspect that few if any dollars or Euros go to any
legitimate charities.
Judging by the logo on the spine, Lenny's stellar new work is
being published by his favorite pay-to-play book producer, which
he has used for most of his previous English-language works, 21st Century
Press ("At 21st Century Press,
creating a culture for author-centricity is the core mindset
behind how we approach publishing books to an ever changing
world.").
Apart from their garbled mission statement, or whatever that
blurb was supposed to be, and their highly questionable taste in
clients (at least in this particular case), 21st Century Press
maintains a professional facade and it's pretty clear that
someone there has a general love for books and publishing. Their
web site is clearly designed by professionals, and the copy is
written by people who, notwithstanding that train wreck of a mission statement, are obviously much more eloquent than at
least one of the company's star authors. Just take a gander at
the lovely prose squandered on one of LoonyC's older works, The Only Answer To Stress.
Dr. Leonard Coldwell has written this
remarkable handbook for health with two voices. Like a
singer producing not one beautiful tone but two at the same
time, these two voices blend into a harmonious song of health
and potential. And the remarkable thing is that every
single person who reads—and follows—this beautiful book
will be able to sing that way, too. And their words, and
the glorious melody of health and empowerment will be theirs,
and theirs alone!
The two voices are the voice of the deeply informed,
knowledgeable expert in physiology, medicine, neurology,
biochemistry, pathology, research and clinical care—of
which Dr. Coldwell is—and the homey, chatty,
straight-from-the-shoulder Dutch uncle who tells you what is
really going on, with compassion, but with no patience for
self-pity or sloppy excuses.
So, in your hands, on the pages of this book, you have a
tell-it-like-it-is friend and a scientific integrator who can
make the complicated business of the life sciences simple,
clear and, most important, comprehensible.
Dr. Coldwell ties all of the relevant sciences into one neat
package with your life and shows you how, in simple, concise
and well-laid-out steps, how it works and what to do about
it.
You have to wonder if the person who wrote that
was giggling or gagging while doing so. One thing is certain:
Lenny paid to get those words written.
There are of course numerous inaccuracies in the poetic tribute
quoted above. First off, if you've ever read any of his hateful,
misspelled, grammar-challenged Facebook rants you'll probably be
able to figure out that "Dr." Coldwell doesn't write
any of his English-language books himself. Instead he uses
ghostwriters -- most notably, a woman named Kelly Wallace. There's no
shame in that, of course, as many folks who either can't write
(like Lenny), or are too busy to do so, use ghostwriters.
However, even with the help of ghostwriters fluent in English,
the books of Coldwell's that I've seen are, as indicated above,
rambling and redundant and could use some serious editing.
But describing him as a writer is the least of the sins in the
blurb quoted above. To compare any of his work to a singer
"producing not one beautiful tone but two at the same
time" is just plain silly. Even more ludicrous is the claim
that he is a "deeply informed, knowledgeable expert" in
anything. He's not. And he's far less
like a "homey, chatty... Dutch
uncle" than like the volatile,
raving, bigoted drunk uncle who used to be an
embarrassment at your holiday gatherings until finally the adults
just learned to ignore him and the children were taught to do the
same. Except he's far less likeable than that druncle, and for
that matter probably quite a bit drunker much of the time.
21st Century Press describes itself as a "partnership/royalty press" offering two
options for the aspiring author. If you
want the royalty deal you'll pay nothing upfront, but will
apparently be required to purchase at least 500 copies of your
own book, though they'll give you a 50% discount off the retail
price. So that means Lenny would have to spend about $5,000 for a
minimum run of his newest book, which has a retail price of $19.99, according to the current order form. The other option is for you to
pay $3,000 upfront for 21st Century to put a book together for
you (editing, book design, pre-press, printing, and whatever marketing and promotional services come with the deal), and you get 50 copies of the finished work. No doubt you
have the option of buying as many additional copies as you want,
for additional costs, of course.
Call it a vanity press if you wish, but this is actually a
perfectly legitimate business model for authors who either can't
land a traditional publishing deal (which is most likely the case
with Lenny) or just don't want to, though other self-publishing
options may be much better for authors who believe they can sell
a lot of books and/or who want more control over every aspect of
the publishing process, including ownership of their ISBNs, which
is more important than you might think. But the point
to remember is that with this business model the author pays
to get published, and the merits of the work in question
matter far less than the author's credit card number. That's
something Lenny never mentions regarding any of his many
"mega-bestselling" titles, whether they're in German
(for which he uses Jim Humble Verlag) or English.
Lenny's English-language publisher apparently also offers a range
of a la carte services for the self-published author, including manuscript review, the fee for
which they promise to fully credit to the author if she or he
chooses to publish with them. This bit is a little puzzling,
though:
Some publishers charge upwards of
$10,000 for a professional manuscript review. We charge
nothing. And if you choose to publish with us, we will fully
refund this amount back to you or place it as a credit toward
your contract.
Wow. A refund on $0.00. What have ya got to
lose?
I've previously written about the brains behind 21st Century, Lee Fredrickson. See, for
instance, this Whirled post from August 2014, in a December 2014 update inserted into the main text.
(Some links in that section are no longer valid but were at the
time the post was published.)
Since 2014, when Lenny began claiming that he had written and was poised to publish a whole book
"exposing" yours truly and a few other critical
bloggers** (the linked screen grab was
from October 2014), I've sent several polite emails to Mr.
Fredrickson at the email address posted on his site (lee@21stcenturypress.com), simply inquiring about the titles and release dates
of any upcoming books by his client and buddy "Dr."
Coldwell. But I never received any reply whatsoever, not even an
acknowledgment that my emails had been received.
At any rate, when I finally buy The ONLY Cancer Patient Cure
I'll let you know my opinion. I may be totally wrong and it might
really be all new material, but... oh, who am I kidding? But I'll
let you know either way. Or you can buy the book now and
let me know.
For the time being, I'm still waiting for the release of Horny
Connie & Friends, or whatever that book that was set to be published on February 4, 2015, according to Lenny, was
supposed to be titled. Lacking that, I'll be on the lookout in The
ONLY Cancer Patient Cure for new additions to the Brave
Maverick Doc narrative, and if there's anything in there about an
AIDS-infected, sexually predatory, mentally ill, drug-addicted, dog-killing former prostitute
who is on Big Pharma's payroll (all of which are lies that
Coldwell has publicly and repeatedly written about me), the
publisher may be hearing from my attorney. But I have a feeling he's too smart to publish all of Coldwell's unadulterated crap, and it's possible that even little Lenny himself has learned his lesson about targeting those who are trying to get to the truth about him. We'll see. PS added on 20 August ~ Hatemonger and conspiracy peddler Jeff
Rense, a long-time buddy of Coldwell's,
interviewed Lenny on Friday, August 11. That was the same night that Neo-Nazis, white
nationalists, and a variety of other bigots marched in Charlottesville, Virginia with guns, swords, and tiki torches. Although the Friday
night march, and the tragedy that followed the next day, were of course not mentioned in the Rense-Coldwell
conversation, the vile hatred spewed in that exchange is
symptomatic of the same deep malaise that drove the bigots who
convened in Charlottesville. It is staggeringly stupid, this
conversation, and if you don't feel like listening to it in its
entirety you can get the gist of it pretty well from the
transcript, which is more accurate than most of the YouTube
automatic transcripts I've read. Just be aware that due to
Lenny's accent and his problems with the letter "r,"
the words "rape" or "raping" (and he does
talk about rape a LOT in this conversation; it remains one of his
favorite subjects) come out in the transcript as "wave"
or "waving." Enjoy!
PPS added on 2 September ~ The Brave Maverick Doctor rides again! If you listened to the above-linked conversation between those two raging bigots Rense and Coldwell, you already know that Lenny is now claiming that "they" tried to kill him over his "new" book. He's using that phony story as a promotional hook. If you believe it, you have either not done much research on him, or there is something wrong with your critical-thinking faculties.
* Regarding Coldwell's unearned GIN downline: By
this I mean that, according to Coldwell's account on an October 14, 2012 teleconference
between him and his buddy Peter Wink (the
link to that conference has long since disappeared, but I did listen to the whole thing), Kevin Trudeau gave Coldwell
"a free downline to make it look like I was a member of
GIN." Despite his claim in that teleconference that he never worked the downline, Coldwell did apparently work it quite
aggressively, if the accounts of various ex-GIN members, and some of Coldwell's own online promos, are any indication. I wrote about that October 2012 teleconference in this January 2013 blog post (under the sub-head,
"Axes of evil").
Today is the eleventh blogaversary of Whirled
Musings, which began life in July 2006 as a humor blog targeting
New-Wage/selfish-help/McSpirituality/alt-health scams and
scammers. I didn't have any particular expectations for the blog
and figured I would continue writing it as long as it continued
to be at least marginally entertaining for me and for a few other
folks. And for quite a long time it was enormously entertaining,
at least for me, and for the most part I kept things on the light
side. Then things took a rather serious turn in the latter part
of 2009 with the James Arthur Ray "sweat lodge" deaths, which brought home the point that Scamworld has its
dark side too.
Still I continued my attempts at humor in between the serious
stuff, and even managed to work in a little bit of journalistic
reporting regarding matters such as the ongoing saga of serial scammer Kevin Trudeau
and the civil and criminal cases against him. Real journalists
even contacted me while working on their own Trudeau stories, not
that I ever received any public credit as a source, but that's
just the way things go.
In 2012 my Whirled began colliding with one of Trudeau's former
boyfriends, cancer quack and faux-doctor Leonard Coldwell, who tried
for years to silence me by posting lies and doxing me, and
eventually suing me (unsuccessfully). But the Whirled kept
spinning.
And it spins even today, although not everyone likes the spin,
particularly as I've become more frequently political,
despite the fact that Whirled Musings is not a political blog,
except when it has to be. Some former pals who were disillusioned
with the likes of Trudeau and Coldwell were, as it happened, fans
of the Scammer-in-Chief, Donald J. Trump, and didn't like my expressions of disdain for the
#NotMyPresident.
Trump famously said in a private meeting back in 2013 that he was
going to "suck all the oxygen out of the room" once he really decided to run for president. And he
did, and he continues to do so, as well as continuing just to
suck in general. I fear that he has sucked a lot of oxygen out of
this blog as well, for since last year I've been spending far
less time blogging my normal beat and more time with political
posts on social media.
But I still haven't forgotten or abandoned my original beat, and
I have plenty more to write. Thank you again for your support
over the years, and if you feel so inclined, blogaversary gifts
in the form of donations are always welcome.
Eight years ago today, on July 25, 2009, a
46-year-old woman named Colleen Conaway died at a San
Diego shopping mall after attending a "wealth creation"
seminar by James Arthur "Death" Ray, convicted killer and star of the New-Wage moviemercial
for magickal thinking and McSpirituality crapitalism, The Secret. Most of
you who have been following this blog and/or the blogs of several
others who have written about it -- especially Salty Droid and Yakaru of Spirituality is No Excuse -- know Colleen's story well. But it is a story worth
mentioning again, in the service of never forgetting.
If you don't know the story, a good place to start is this 2012 Whirled post, which
contains links to more detailed accounts. From that post:
Colleen, who reportedly had no history
of emotional or mental problems, apparently had a psychotic
episode at a James Ray event in San Diego in July 2009, and
she leaped to her death from a third-story shopping mall
balcony. After Ray found out about it, he and his top minions
apparently worked to cover it up, shielding the rest of the
attendees from the unfortunate event, and they all partied on
that night. If you don't know Colleen's sad story, my pal
Yakaru has written a good summary of this tragedy, linking to several Salty Droid posts.
At the time Colleen died, Death Ray was not yet a convicted
killer. That distinction came in 2011, in the form of three
convictions for felony negligent homicide, not for Colleen's
death but rather for the October 2009 deaths of three other people -- Kirby Brown, James Shore, and Liz Neuman -- in a
Sedona, Arizona faux-sweatlodge/torture chamber. For
these three deaths, Ray served a disgustingly short term -- less
than two years -- in an Arizona state prison. And while he has
reportedly settled with Colleen's family (I still don't know all
of the details there), he was never criminally charged, tried, or
convicted, and therefore has never served prison time for, her
death. In fact, Colleen's story, though reported in local
newspapers, didn't really become widely known until after
the Sedona story broke months later.
In the years since Ray was released from prison, he has been
trying his best to make a comeback, and has worked
the Sedona deaths into his narrative,
painting himself as a hero/martyr who has survived a trial by
fire and has emerged stronger than ever, prepared to charge
others for his hard-earned wisdumb.
In 2009, after rising to the top of the
industry, James was involved in a terrible incident that
claimed the lives of three of his clients who he cared about
deeply.
True to his own teachings, James maintained an attitude of
personal responsibility coupled with resilience. James is
constantly focused on extensive study of great philosophers,
as well as an in-depth analysis of himself. As a result,
he has defined a new approach that will radically disrupt
traditional thinking and present a fresh and dynamic approach
to being successful in both life and business...
...James’ personal and business experiences have caused him
to be considered an expert in leadership, entrepreneurship,
mental toughness, resilience and emotional strength. His
experience has proven time and time again…that it’s the
challenges, adversity, and often crisis, that present the
ultimate opportunity for growth and greatness if we’re only
willing to utilize them in that way.
Ray even tried to get his three negligent
homicide convictions overturned, but he was unsuccessful. He did
get his rights to vote and hold office restored, however.
Meanwhile, he continues to push his shtick, and though his crowds
are considerably smaller now than they were in those heady post-Secret,
pre-Sedona days, he still seems to have a loyal following of
dolts who either don't know, don't remember, or don't care about
his reckless past and unrepentant ways.
And in other, related news, the Transformational Leadership Council, the New-Wage/selfish-help cartel that Ray helped found
but that booted him out after the Sedona story broke, is getting ready to convene in yet another seekrit place on July 26-30, 2017 to bolster each other's egos. Their
summer event always takes place around the time of the
anniversary of Colleen's death, which is why I remember it. The
TLC used to publicize their events, and the locations, well in
advance, but in the past few years have been much more
circumspect -- at least on their official site. But another
co-founder, Jack Canfield, reveals on his site that the
event will be in Tucson, Arizona.
And so it goes. Death Ray natters on, and the TLC continues to
hold events where members congratulate themselves on being
masters of the universe, and Scamworld hums away: the dogs bark,
but the caravan goes on.
But that doesn't mean the dogs should give up on barking.
And once again, my heart goes out to the people
who loved Colleen Conaway. Never forget.
PS ~ While some folks have all but given up on the
self-help industry having any integrity, there are good people
working to improve the industry. One example is the Ginny Brown,
mother of Ray victim Kirby Brown. Following Kirby's death, Ginny
and the Brown family founded a non-profit called Seek Safely to
try to make the industry more accountable, guide consumers to
make safe decisions, and track legislation affecting the
industry. Check out Seek Safely here.
Oh, good Goddess, it's hot, and probably growing hotter all the time. But the intensifying heat hasn't stopped the scammers
from scamming, and once again I've been negligent about even
trying to keep up with all of it on this blog. But I feel that I
have to make a stab at it and so, despite the torpor imposed by
the brutal Texas summer, I have heroically dragged myself to the
keyboard to natter on about just a few of the scammers and scams.
Understand that I would much rather be sitting on my breezeway
sipping lemonade or a peach smoothie and re-reading The Wind
in the Willows (the 1980 Michael Hague illustrated edition is my current favorite), or Christopher Moore's Sacre Bleu or some other delicious bit of escape literature that
is far removed from the roiling scams and political scandals, but
I have a responsibility to the three or four people who read this
blog. I am doing this for y'all. You're welcome. And I apologize
for redundancy if you've read any of this on my recent Facebook
posts.
But he may just be playing the part of rabble-rouser, as he has a
gleeful tendency to do. More importantly, in the above-linked
post he paints #NotMyPresident Donald J. Trump
as some sort of hero who will save all of us from the evil
machinations of Big Pharma. Adams predicts, without offering any
real substantiation, that Trump is poised to order the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) to ban direct-to-consumer advertising
of prescription drugs on TV. And he gleefully speculates that
without Big Pharma ad revenue, "fake news" outlet CNN
will collapse and go bankrupt, which of course will be a triumph
for Trump and for all good people who are tired of fake news and
seek the truth from reliable sources such as Adams, Alex Jones,
Breitbart et al.
Several things are wrong with Adams' reasoning, apart from the
obvious fact that he fails to acknowledge that numerous other TV
news outlets such as Fox News -- not to mention a wide variety of
print media, including conservative print media -- also benefit
from Big Pharma ad revenue. First, let's imagine that CNN or any
of the other outlets were to suddenly be deprived of those creepy
ads in which hapless consumers move in slow motion through
surreal worlds, while being stalked and harassed by their upset
stomachs, overactive bladders, or irritated bowels, whilst also
battling their plaque psoriasis and/or new or worsening
depression. Would these media outlets collapse? It's highly
doubtful. Absent Big Pharma ad revenue, the outlets would no
doubt sell more ad time to other big spenders, such as car
manufacturers, beer brewers, big food companies, and so forth.
It's not as if Big Pharma is the only industry that buys ad time
on TV.
Second, and perhaps even more important, Adams' insinuation that
Trump will do much of anything to rein in Big Pharma is absurd.
Even though Trump has made derogatory comments -- during the
campaign and since the election -- about the pharmaceutical
industry, particularly in regard to exorbitant drug prices, he
has demonstrated time and again that overall he is a friend to
big business and industry, with his main agenda being to get rid
of "onerous" regulations that he apparently believes
prevent companies from realizing their full profit potential. As a March 2017 piece on the USA Today site points out:
...while President Donald Trump said he wants to reduce
the high costs of prescription medicines, he is also expected
to encourage fewer government restrictions on the development
and marketing of drugs.
Third, Adams seems to be insinuating that this is a
left-vs-right, liberal-vs-conservative issue, with the
leftists/liberals being on the side of the wicked, greedy Pharma
monsters, and the rightists -- particularly the alt-rightists
like Adams -- being the heroes who, with the help and support of
their superhero Trump, are fighting to protect the people from
those monsters. In reality, the "leftist, liberal"
press has been on Big Pharma's case for years and years, probably
since Adams was in elementary school. Certainly, liberal-leaning
outlets such as NPR are addressing the issue. Here's a doctor (yes, a real medical doctor), writing on
NPR.org about the true dangers of direct-to-consumer Rx
advertising.
Moreover, pro-bidness conservative types are far more likely to
be tolerant of drug manufacturers' (or any other business's)
obsession with profits over people. And left-of-center
politicians such as Bernie Sanders have been very
outspoken about the greed and bad practices of Big Pharma.
Granted, politicians on both sides of the aisle have accepted Big
Pharma money, with Hillary Clinton having received millions in
contributions. But overall, the big drug companies have poured more into GOP coffers. In an article published on STAT just before the 2016
U.S. election, back when most people still believed that Clinton
would win the presidency, Dylan Scott wrote:
The drug industry has
traditionally leaned Republican, and this year more
Republican members are at risk than sitting Democrats. Even
so, 2016 appears notably lopsided. Drug makers this election
cycle have supported Republicans in those closest campaigns
by a 6-to-1 margin, while giving the vast majority of their
dollars in competitive open seats with no incumbents to
Republican candidates...
...The dangers that a Democratic wave would pose to the drug
industry are no secret. Biotech stocks are already stagnating over fears of such a sweep; one stock analyst
called it the “worst-case scenario” in a note to
investors last week.
Among other proposals, Clinton has raised the possibility of
setting up a government panel to penalize companies for
egregious price hikes. She wants Medicare to directly negotiate
the drug prices it pays, a now-standard stump line for
Democrats, and to limit tax breaks for drug makers...
...The drug lobby “is pretty scared of what a Clinton
[presidency] could do to the industry,” one source said,
“and relies heavily on lobbying power with Republicans to
block damaging legislation.”
The STAT analysis shows that, even in competitive House races
with no incumbent, if the industry has donated any money,
almost all of the dollars have gone to Republican candidates.
Left-leaning media outlets and politicians
aren't the only entities who have groused about the industry,
including about the ubiquitous drug ads. Numerous consumer groups
-- not to mention mainstream medical organizations such as the
AMA -- have been complaining for years about direct-to-consumer
Rx drug advertising. All things considered, Adams, in his railing
against the business practices of -- and aggressive marketing by
-- the big drug companies, can neither claim originality, nor can
he or Donald Trump lay claim to the moral or political high
ground regarding any legitimate complaints against the
pharmaceutical industry. The operative word here is
"legitimate." Trump's complaints about the industry are
clumsy and half-hearted attempts at demagoguery. He'll say what
he thinks his base wants to hear, whether it's griping about high
prices (a legitimate complaint) or waxing alarmist about the
dangers of vaccines (a mostly bogus issue). And Adams' protests
are tainted with his own agenda and histrionic extremism; he
steadfastly refuses to acknowledge that pharmaceutical drugs have
also been lifesavers for millions of people.
And now the good ex-doctor is gone. Here's a snippet from the
Bing-enabled translation, helpfully offered by Facebook, of
LoonyC's tribute:
My Epilogue:
Dr. Hamer as the founder of the "New Germanic
medicine"
Thank you very much, he was a very big one.
The real cause of cancer and its treatment on
Psychological Base. The pharmaceutical industry is concerned
with
Know the fraud base, and this is people's murder!
His persecution by purchased pharma idiots
And the European authorities spoke volumes. Already alone the
Tracking Dr. Hamer at the instigation of them exposed them
As a liar and a murderer! Would an honest act like that?
This really happened as in the case of Bruno gröning.
His more armored letters to the courts,
Authorities and Jewish-khazar intrigues that he put him in
prison
Brought. He really went through the wall with his head!
... and did this for us too! Beware of a lot of courage!
He only spoke the truth and who the truth
Says he needs a damn fast horse!
His demise, I find a great loss for all people,
The chemotherapy as a lie and alternative medicine as
You know the truth. For everyone else you can see how
Seduced and brainwash they are - often from comfortable own
Blame.... the responsibility to the doctors....
And the pharmaceutical industry is stuffing your pockets!
Deserves to be paid to the sick and dying billions - and to
the
Healthy Nothing! So?
We miss him and his letters and comments against the lobby
and
Conspiracy about genocide by chemotherapy!
He had world class! .... Real theater ripe!
He went on the roofs and cried out the truth.... no matter
To his own person, the as he was! De mortuis nil nisi bene !
About the dead only good.... About these dead - understand! ....
It reads like really, really bad poetry
("He had world class!...Real theater ripe!"), and is
nearly impossible to understand without knowing a bit about
Coldwell's shtick and, more importantly, about Hamer's. Actually,
it's pretty difficult to understand anyway, which is no big
surprise, considering who the writer is, and as I've mentioned
here before, a couple of my pals who are fluent in German tell me
that Coldwell's writing is nearly as incoherent in his native
language. And I can vouch for the fact that his English-language
offerings are similarly amusing. So we can't totally blame the
clumsy machine translation.
But an understanding of Hamer's bigotry, as well as Coldwell's,
is also necessary. The phrase that really sticks out for me in
the above passage is "genocide by chemotherapy." Pair
that with the mention of "Jewish-khazar intrigues,"
and the picture becomes clearer. He's not talking about genocide of
Jews or of any other ethnic, racial, or religious minority group.
Rather, he is referring to an imagined genocide of non-Jews... by
Jews.
And the departed Hamer was clearly no fan of Jews either. From RationalWiki:
Hamer purported that his method is a
"Germanic" alternative to mainstream clinical
medicine which he claimed is part of a Jewish
conspiracy to decimate
non-Jews. In this Hamer follows the antisemitic "Neue
Deutsche Heilkunde"
propagated in Nazi Germany. More precisely, he asserted that chemotherapy
and morphine are used to "mass murder" Western
Civilisation, while such treatment is not used in Israel
where nearly no people die of cancer, according to him.[9][10][15]
He promoted the idea that most oncologists in Germany are Jewish and that "no Jew is
treated with chemotherapy in Germany". According to him,
hypodermic
needles are used during
chemotherapy to implant "chips" containing
"chambers of poison" that can be activated by
satellite to specifically kill patients.[16]
He proposeed that the swine
flu vaccination campaign
of 2009 was also used to mark people with those
"chips" and denies the
existence of HIV.[17]
Hamer also believed that the denial of recognition of his
theories and the revocation of his practitioner's licence is
due to a Jewish conspiracy.[15]
In 2008, Hamer presented a document where one
"Chief Rabbi" "Esra" Iwan Götz confirmed the
existence of a conspiracy among Jewish oncologists to use the
"torture" of chemotherapy on all non-Jewish
patients, while Jewish patients were to receive the
"correct" treatment of GNM. Iwan Götz is a German
holocaust denialist active in the German Reich
revivalism scene who has
been repeatedly convicted by German courts on counts of
holocaust denial,[18]
fraud, defamation, misuse of academic titles (the title
"Chief Rabbi" is not legally protected in Germany),
falsification of documents, among others.[19]
Apart from his prejudices, however, was there
any validity to Hamer's work? It would seem not. Here's more from
RationalWiki:
Following the death of his son in a
shooting incident in 1978, Ryke Geerd Hamer developed
testicular cancer. His wife also developed breast cancer at
around the same time. Hamer came to believe that both cancers
had been directly caused by shock at their son's death, and
that they could be treated by resolving this emotional
conflict. Despite that, he received a
conventional operation for his testicular cancer in 1979, while his wife was treated by Hamer himself,
as the first patient of his New Medicine, and died in 1985. [Sort
of reminds me of another much-loved (including by Lenny)
alt-cancer quack, the late Hulda Clark, who, as I mentioned
in passing on an October 2016 Whirled post, died of cancer. ~ CC]
Hamer announced the creation of his "New Medicine"
in 1981. Despite his theories being rejected by the
scientific establishment, he opened a series of cancer
clinics between 1982 and 1985, all of which were closed down
by the authorities for illegal practices. The vast majority
of his patients died at these clinics, although Hamer
continued to publicly present his treatment methods as
successful.
In 1986, Hamer's medical licence was revoked. He has
continued to practice illegally in various European countries
ever since, in between prosecutions and stints of jail time.
Unsurprisingly, courts have found him to be mentally
unstable, and thus unfit to practice medicine. Alarmingly, he
has been supported and defended by some of those to whom he
has been peddling his false treatments.
And for good measure, here's a July 2009 post from a
blog that takes a critical look at "alternative" cancer
treatments.
Undaunted, in the following years Hamer
opened various illegal clinics in Germany. He treated large
groups of patients, including his own wife Birgit who
suffered from breast cancer.
Birgit died in 1985. Hamer claimed this was because she was
sceptical about his GNM. Later he would maintain that he ‘cured’
her of breast cancer no less than five times.
By the end of 1985 charges were brought against Hamer because
of the scandalous goings on in his private clinic in
Katzenelnbogen. Less than a year later his medical licence ws
revoked. However, to this day this hasn’t stopped Hamer
from continuing to ‘treat’ patients and the number of
victims of the GNM has reached frightening proportions.
And here's another 2009 post on
the Science Based Medicine blog, written by my favorite physician
blogger, Dr. David Gorski (who currently blogs under the name
Orac on the Respectful Insolence blog).
You get the idea.
"But, Cosmic Connie," some of you might be saying,
"in order to be fair and balanced, you should also post some
positive stuff about Dr. Hamer!" To which I will say that
you can find plenty of that stuff on the Internet. Believe it at
your own peril.
Lest you wonder, as I initially did, whether Coldwell believes
that Hamer was murdered, and his death another chapter in the
ongoing "dead holistic doctors" conspiracy narrative --
which I initially wrote about in this August 2015 post, and then again in July 2016 (under "Dead
holistic docs conspiracy rages on") -- he does not seem to
be making that claim outright in his long, rambling
"Epilogue." On the other hand -- and again, I'm going
by the awkward translation -- Coldwell does appear to insinuate
that the stress Hamer experienced from years of
"persecution" may have hastened his death. He also
leaves open the possibility of murder, suggesting that Hamer might
have been poisoned.
For Clarification:
Dr. I don't think hamer was killed, he was 82 years old, too.
But the trouble, in which he, unfortunately, has always
increased emotionally too much, has
5 years of his life....
Subject to the fact that you have not poisoned him yet - who
knows?
I don't trust them!
However, I do not know the details now, so subject to....
Diagnosis of poison I can now ask myself without celebrated
doctor
To be, so much experience I have in it.... (if the body
becomes black, then it's poison)
LoonyC never met a conspiracy tale that he
didn't like. Especially if it centers around a Brave Maverick Doctor, as
Loony fancies himself to be.
Mother Russia revisited
Finally, I'd like to remind you that this week Stephen Colbert,
who has helped many of us maintain our sanity in Drumpf's
Amerika, will be presenting his much-awaited "Russia
Week," highlighting his recent
trip to Mother Russia.
That's it for now. I'll be back soon to celebrate this blog's
eleventh (!) birthday, which rolls around on July 27. For now,
I'm going back to spend some quality time on the riverbank with
the Mole and Ratty and Mr. Toad, or perhaps with Toulouse-Lautrec
and gang in nineteenth-century Paris. And who knows, in between
all of that, I might even get some real work done. If more of you
would donate to this blog, I might
not have to work, but it is what it is, and it isn't
what it isn't, and as you know I don't spend a whole lot of time
begging, except when I do. Anyway, I'll
see you next time.
As you may know, I am serving a 10 year
prison sentence for "contempt of court", because I
went on TV and talked about my books (all the details are at [KevinTrudeau dot com]).
I have filed an Official Petition for Commutation of Sentence
with the President. This means I am asking the President to
exercise his power to lower my sentence and have me released.
As of today, there has been no response from the White House.
However, this is not unusual. The President has yet to
appoint and have confirmed the person who will be in charge
of the Pardon Office. So, keep writing, tweeting, emailing,
posting on the facebook pages and calling. The President, the
Vice President, The First Lady Melania, Ivanka, Eric, Donald
Jr, Jared Kushner, Kelly Ann Conway, as well as your Senator
and Congressman telling them you support the decision to have
my sentence commuted. Tell them about all the information at
[KevinTrudeau dot com]. Maybe send
them copies of my books, or copies of the letters I have sent
to the President. The more you do, and the more often you do
it, the better the chances are that the President will see
the massive support there is for commuting my sentence.
Thanks for all you do! While I am optimistic that the
President will commute my sentence, there still is one more
legal appeal I can file. This is called a 2255 motion. This
appeal must be filed by November of this year. That is the
deadline. My current lawyers cannot file this appeal. I need
to find a new lawyer who has successfully filed 2255's in the
past and would like to take on my case. If you know of a
lawyer that would be interested in being considered, please
have that lawyer contact me at [KTLegalDenfense [sic] at
gmail dot com] email address. Perhaps if you are motivated
you could reach out to some "superstar" lawyers and
see if they would be interested in representing me. The
lawyer who takes on this appeal, will be massive publicity.
They could, if they wanted, be on virtually every major TV
and radio talk show as well as be interviewed in newspaper
and magazines worldwide, as this is a free speech, and
government suppression and censorship issue. Thanks for your
help on this! So you all know, I have no attachment to any
particular outcome. I know everything is perfect right now. I
am happy right now. There is nothing I "want, need or
desire". I have it all! This is a wonderful state that
you too can be established and anchored in at all times,
regardless of the circumstances and external conditions you
are experiencing. I teach how to have this state in The
Science of Personal Mastery Course. To become a student and
get the Course (emailed to in monthly Lessons) email
KTlegaldefense [at gmail dot com]. Much love, and I will see
you all at the TOP!
"See you all at the TOP?" Maybe he means the
top bunk. I am almost completely certain that I have used that
joke before, though I'm too lazy to search my own blog to confirm
it, but I believe in recycling. I think it's a nice touch for
Katie to list some of the other people his fans should be bugging
besides Drumpf. I know Melania will be thrilled to hear from all
of Katie's fans, and I'm sure that Drumpf's son-in-law Jared
Kushner, whose business dealings are currently being investigated
by special counsel, will be sympathetic
to Katie's plight. Maybe Jared and Katie can get together and
cook up some new scams. Or maybe they can just share some fine
whines about how oppressed and persecuted they are. Perhaps they'll be joined by the Whiner-in-Chief.
As for Drumpf having yet to appoint and confirm "the person
who will be in charge of the Pardon Office," I imagine
that's way down on the list of priorities in an administration where hundreds of vacancies remain
unfilled.
Anyway, judging from Katie's plea to his gullibles to help him
find legal representation, it appears that he is having as much
trouble finding a good lawyer to help him through his travails as
Herr Drumpf is having. Why,
oh, why, do such bad things happen to such good and righteous
men?
But dry your tears, Dear Ones. Katie tells us that
he is still perfectly happy and at peace right where he is, and
that he doesn't actually care when, or if, he is ever set free.
At least that's what he keeps on telling us, and telling us, and
telling us. (Never mind those crocodile tears he cried, while begging for his freedom,
every time he stood before a judge. That was just for show.) And
for just a modest recurring fee, he will be thrilled to share his
secrets to perfect inner peace with you. However, I do think he misrepresented one teeny-tiny little item in his June
8 Facebook post. The post indicated that the White House had not
yet responded to all of the zillions of letters, emails, phone
calls, tweets, texts, whines, and threats sent their way. And
yet... and yet... on the KevinTrudeau dot com site, there's this June 2, 2017 entry on the #FreeKevinTrudeau blog, titled, "Persistence Pays: White House
Acknowledges #FreeKevinTrudeau."
After literally thousands of letters,
emails, tweets and phone calls The White House has taken the
first step in acknowledging the Free Kevin Trudeau campaign
(#FreeKevinTrudeau)
We have been provided with 2 (almost identical) replies from
the White House acknowledging that correspondence is in fact
being received.
While President Trump hasn’t address [sic] Kevin’s case
or his own views in the communication, he does go on to thank
the writers for their support for himself and his wife
Melania.
You will be familiar with the Acres of Diamonds story, where
people often quit just an inch from the goal. Remember, if
this we [sic] are [are] an easy task, it would have already
been done by now.
So who cares if the "acknowledgment" was
nothing more than a generic form letter with a digitized Trump
signature? It's a beginning! And remember those Acres
of Diamonds!
At any rate, it's really, really important that all of y'all who
want to see Kevin Trudeau freed continue to hammer away at
everyone who is even marginally involved with Donald Trump. Maybe
you can even start another petition to the White House, such as this well-meaning effort that was launched in February
of this year.
For my part, I have been racking my brain to think
of any "superstar" lawyers I know who might be able to
help Kevin with his 2255 motion or any other
heroic legal feat to help spring him from Camp Cupcake. As it
happens there are a couple of sharp-as-a-tack legal eagles in Greensboro,
North Carolina who might be a perfect
fit. They seem to have a lot of experience defending drunk drivers and violent criminals and whatnot, as well as suing harmless bloggers on behalf of various nutcakes. Maybe I'll recommend them. They did such a good job with one of Kevin Trudeau's moronic ex-boyfriends that I'm sure they'll be able to help Katie too.
And if neither the North Carolina comedy team nor the Chicago
clown works out, maybe Kevin can contact his old bromantic
partner directly for recommendations, as the latter is still furiously and impotently rattling the legal
sabers. To hear him tell it, he has a
huge and formidable legal team, poised to sue any and everyone on
the planet. So, good luck, Katie!

Laying hands on a
Palantir isn't going to make those tiny
paws any bigger, Herr Drumpf. All it is going to do is create sinkholes in front of
your garish palace, and sap your strength. And you of
all people should know that being president requires stamina --
the kind of stamina that Madam Secretary (she who should have
become Madam President) had in abundance.
Truly, worrying about the fate of the nation under Mad King
Donald is sapping my strength, and I fear that even
Gandalf won't be able to save us. Drumpf's loony-tunes shenanigans in Saudi Arabia haven't helped matters any. But I haven't given up on
this Whirled. So bear with me.
So another month almost got away from me while
I was occupied with for-pay work and other real-life matters. But
just in the nick of time, here are a few snippets to snark us out
of April and right into May Day, aka International Workers' Day,
aka Loyalty Day. (And simmer down: while Herr Twitler is disturbingly,
disgustingly authoritarian and seems hell-bent on destroying the
Constitution, he didn't make up Loyalty Day.
It was actually first observed in the U.S. back in 1921, during
the first Red Scare, and became a legally designated holiday in
1958.)
Almost-May-Day or not, it's just another day in Scamworld...
In Redemption James Arthur Ray
brings his nearly 30 years of experience in business,
entrepreneurship, meteoric rises and epic falls to suggest
that leadership is about “paying the price.”
In some cases, followership is also about
"paying the price," and in some cases that price is
your life.
I don't think Death Ray quite understands the meaning of the
word, "redemption."
Ramtha Hearts Drumpf I used to write fairly frequently about the imaginary-friends sector
of the New-Wage/selfish-help/McSpirituality industry. In other
words, I used to be a lot more fun than I am now. But never mind
that. One of the elder stateswomen of the imaginary-pals biz is crazy J.Z., who has a
35,000-year-old made-up mate named Ramtha. Recently I found out
that Ramtha is quite the Donald Trump fan, despite the fact that his inventor has a history of
being a donor to the Democratic party. That must make for some
interesting convos at the dinner table and family gatherings.
Ramtha cheers the new president:
“That man is trumping deceit. He doesn’t smoke, he
doesn’t do drugs, he does business!”
As a kicker, Ramtha predicts Trump will receive the
protection of UFOs while flying in his jet: “And the first
time he looks out the window … when he sees two silver
disks as escort, he is going to know it all — and this is a
man who is not afraid — he is going to know it all.”
Mike Wright, a [J.Z.] Knight spokesman, said in an
emailed statement that Knight continues to support Democratic
candidates and causes in local and state elections.
“She did not vote for candidate Trump but she sees what
Ramtha describes as ‘purposeful good’ in his election,”
the statement said.
And...
The Ramtha controversy that dogged
local Democrats erupted in 2012 after videos were leaked by a
conservative group of Knight, as Ramtha, making racist and
offensive comments. That included referring to “the
invasion of the Mexicans who just breed like rabbits” and
saying Jews had “earned enough cash to have paid their way
out of the (expletive) gas chambers by now.”
Knight’s defenders argued the videos were heavily edited
and that her comments were taken out of context.
Uh-huh.
The Law of Extraction, eleven years
later I've flung thousands of words onto this blog (and some other forums) in the
eleven years since the infamous New-Wage moviemercial, The
Secret, came out. The Secret promoted a simplistic,
pseudoscientific, magical-thinking philosophy called the Law of
Attraction, but what it was really promoting was the Law of
Extraction, as in extracting money from gullible people's
wallets.
Besides criticizing the basic premises of The Secret,
and slamming its shameless pandering to narcissism, greed, and
envy, I've written a lot about the various talking heads for whom
The Secret was a cash cow, including creator Rhonda Byrne. Around the time
of the five-year anniversary of the release of The SecretI posted about the misfortunes of some of the Secret
"stars."
Back in March of this year, one of The Secret's most
boastful "stars" (and a once-frequent star of this
blog, until I grew bored with him), Joe "Mr. Fire" Vitale,
commemorated the ten-plus year anniversary of The Secret. As he'd done hundreds of times previously over the
years, he spent the entire blog post Joe-splaining that The
Secret (despite originally being heavily promoted by its
creators as the only seekrit a person would ever need) was only
an introduction to a concept, and that if The Secret
doesn't "work" for you, it's your fault for not
understanding it properly or not doing the work or whatever. As
is the case with nearly all of his blog posts, the real purpose
of this post post was to give Joe a forum to boast about his
success and try to funnel people into his overpriced "Miracles Coaching" scam.
Some things never change.
But here's what's kind of scary, to the point
that I even wonder if this comment is even real. It appears after
Joe's post:
from "Donald" March 5, 2017
at 10:06 pm Hi Joe!! I recently signed up for your
Miracles Coaching. I am excited! I was recently diagnosed
with cancer, which they said could be cured with surgery.
But, I have decided to put my faith in you and spend the
money on coaching instead. I think the universe will cure me
through you! My doctors were totally negative about my
decision, telling me I was “choosing certain death.” Can
you believe that? Anyway, I would rather give my money to you
than some negative doctors! Wish me well, my friend!
Captain Kirk goes berserk
Earlier this month actor William Shatner got into a big twitter fight over
vaccinations. When my favorite
physician blogger David Gorski, aka Orac (Respectful Insolence)
interevened in the conversation, the former Captain Kirk/Denny
Crane turned on the good doctor and spit out accusations that
were parroted from Mike "The Health Ranger" Adams' fierce defamation campaign against Dr. Gorski. Among other sources, Shatner cited Adams' ill-named
"Truth Wiki" entry on David Gorski.
...if you want to know why people like
Mike Adams write dozens of lie-filled articles attacking me
and adding attacks on my cancer institute for good measure,
this is about the best example I’ve ever seen. It’s to
poison my Google reputation forever, and it’s largely
succeeded, my Wikipedia page and other entries on me that
show up on the first page notwithstanding. Last night’s
experience reminded me of this in a manner that I never would
have predicted in a million years. There’s no way I could
ever have predicted that, one day in 2017 (or any other
time), a celebrity as big as William Shatner would Google me
and use Mike Adams’ attacks on me against me, even though
all I did was to try to explain, quite respectfully and
uncharacteristically not insolently, a bit about why he was
being criticized. One wonders how he would have reacted if he
hadn’t found all that misinformation on me. True, I have
since learned that Shatner has a history of behavior like
this on Twitter and that it’s likely that he would have
found some other reason to attack me, but maybe, just maybe,
he might have listened a little.
In the Slate piece I linked to in the
first sentence of this section, Alan Levinovitz wrote that
Shatner's tweets are instructive as a classic case of the way
misinformation is spread. As far as I'm concerned, the Shatner v
Gorski tweet-fight is also instructive as proof that despite Mike Adams' constant annoying whining about being
"censored" by Google et al.,
he seems to do just fine in the search engines.
Little Loony Lenny: back in the
Fatherland? We in the US can only hope that my UK pal Longdog
is right when he speculates that the stupidest and most evil man
in Scamworld, cancer quack and former Kevin Trudeau b.f.f. Leonard Coldwell, has left the
U.S. and is now hiding out in his native Germany. Too bad for Germany, though.
And speaking of Little LoonyC, it appears that you can register for his IMBS-ing U "coaching"
training in Germany -- which takes a
year to complete and consists of four blocks of
"training" at 2,500 Euros for each block, PLUS a 2,000
Euro fee to actually take the "final."
But be warned, prospective student:
All applications are binding and
irrevocable! There are no cancellations or repayments! ONLY
American law (Court of jurisdiction: Charlotte, North
Carolina, USA) German law is not applicable. If you incur any
costs for IBMS® and dependents, you are fully responsible
and must bear the legal and legal costs for IBMS® and all
dependents in full!
So he's ripping 'em off in the Fatherland too
(no big surprise there), and it's only a matter of time before
they get wise to him. And as usual, his German-language sites
proclaim that everything is subject to U.S. law, while his
dwindling U.S. platforms cite German law. It's all a ruse to try
to keep people from suing him, because you can't just rip people
off nonstop for years and years without the thought of a lawsuit
at least crossing the minds of the folks you're screwing.
Meanwhile...
Katie and pals are still begging
Drumpf for mercy The aforementioned imprisoned serial scammer Kevin Trudeau, aka K.T., aka
Katie, is still begging SCROTUS to pardon and free him
from Camp Cupcake (his faux-fond nickname for the
relatively cushy Montgomery, Alabama prison camp where he's
serving his ten-year sentence). I blogged about this back in February. Katie is
also begging his followers to plea his case to SCROTUS and
whomever else will listen. On March 19 on Facebook, for
instance, one of Katie's surrogates, "E.G.," wrote a
long-ish screed, complete with Trudeau-ish histrionics.
Imagine, if you would, being sentenced
to spend a decade in prison without being convicted of a
"crime". No fraud, no felony, and not even a
misdemeanor (like your garden variety DUI rap). Picture this
draconian sentence imposed on you, not by a "jury of
your peers", but by a singularly mortal and fallible
federal judge.
Ponder what it would be like to be emphatically and cynically
denied every opportunity to defend yourself against
ridiculous "charges" leveled against you, not by
ANY law enforcement agency, and not by any
"complaint" filed against you by any "injured
party", but rather by ONE virtually omnipotent and
pettily vindictive federal judge. To be forbidden to so much
as utter the phrases "first amendment" and
"free speech" in "HIS" courtroom, as if
these were personal affronts to the judge rather than
fundamental rights granted to every citizen of this country
vis-a-vis its supposedly respected and revered founding
document.
Put yourself in the shoes of a completely innocent person as
he is handcuffed and shackled, with bail denied, and thrown
into MCC (Metropolitan Correctional Center) Chicago, one of
America's toughest jails, to defend himself amongst
"real criminals": convicted murderers; armed bank
robbers; human traffickers; drug kingpins; mafia hit men;
violent and ruthless gang members; and pedophiles. Having the
"courtesy" of being offered solitary confinement
extended to you by your jailers "for your own
protection" (naturally), as you stare down the prospect
of ten more years in the federal penitentiary system....
"E.G." went on to describe Katie as
"one of the most honorable people I have ever met,"
adding, "I'm proud to know a person of such rare vintage.
They just don't make 'em like that anymore."
Well, yes, they do, E.G. Scamworld is pretty regularly producing
con artists, scammers, and flim-flammers.
I woke this morning. Meditated for an
hour...read for 20 minutes...made some fresh coffee...wrote
for 30 minutes. And then sat reflecting...smiling...feeling
amazing.
What a wonderful gift I have been given to be here. I am so
thankful and grateful. Bliss bubbled up inside. I sat just
"being"...feeling soooo good!
I looked around me and then thought about all the sad people
getting off a train… sitting in traffic… rushing to
work...stressed. Miserable...unfulfilled...searching for life’s
meaning...struggling with debt.... I smiled again...how lucky
am I!?
YOU can feel good in ANY situation. YOU have the power to
CHOOSE your thoughts and point of focus...use your power
wisely.
Much love…KT
#FreeKevinTrudeau
Free Kevin Trudeau? Why bother? Sounds like
you're already free, Katie!
