The Big Picture: Life Inside the Control Grid

As advocates for truth and medical freedom, we recognize that the world is awakening to the reality that not everything is as it seems. Systems in healthcare, media, and government often operate under agendas that may not prioritize individual well-being.
We encourage everyone to join us on Friday, February 28, 2025, for the premiere of “The Big Picture: Life Inside The Control Grid”—a groundbreaking film that aims to clarify the chaos we are experiencing today and offer effective ways to resist overarching control agendas.

​A Film That Exposes the Truth

Directed by Todd Michael Harris, this compelling documentary features prominent voices such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Catherine Austin Fitts, Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Pierre Kory, and Dr. Paul Thomas. Together, they delve into mechanisms that have been used to influence public perception and restrict freedoms.

The Fight to Protect Doctors' Rights to Speak Openly About Vaccines and Informed Consent

Hello to all health freedom friends and family,
​I’m excited to share that the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) has filed an amicus brief in support of my case before the U.S. Supreme Court. This brief emphasizes the importance of protecting our First Amendment rights as physicians, especially when it comes to speaking openly about vaccines and other health matters that may not align with the mainstream narrative.
The AAPS has a long history of advocating for the preservation of the patient-physician relationship and standing up against governmental overreach. In this brief, they make a compelling case for why state medical boards like the Oregon Medical Board should not be granted absolute immunity when retaliating against doctors who simply express their professional opinions on controversial topics, such as vaccines.
​"Without accountability for retaliatory actions by government, it becomes unsafe for any professional or licensee to speak out on controversial issues such as transgender operations or abortion." – AAPS Amicus Brief
This powerful statement from the AAPS brief underscores a fundamental principle of justice: protecting the rights of professionals to speak freely without fear of retaliation. In my case, it's not just about my right to speak on vaccine safety—it’s about ensuring that all professionals have the freedom to share their research and opinions, no matter how controversial they may be.
Here are a few key points from the AAPS amicus brief:
  • First Amendment Rights: The brief argues that government officials, including medical board members, should not be allowed to infringe on a doctor’s right to free speech. My research and views on vaccines are just that—views backed by science and my personal experience—but the Oregon Medical Board tried to silence me, and this brief is asking the Court to protect my right to speak freely without fear of retaliation.
  • Qualified Immunity vs. Absolute Immunity: The AAPS highlights the dangerous precedent of granting absolute immunity to medical boards. This type of immunity could allow state agencies to take retaliatory actions against physicians like me, without any accountability, simply because we hold differing views on public health issues. The brief argues for qualified immunity instead, which offers protection for government officials while still allowing for accountability when their actions infringe on constitutional rights.
  • The Need for Court Intervention: Just like the National Health Federation’s brief, the AAPS amicus brief underscores the need for the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene and address the power imbalance that allows these medical boards to suppress alternative viewpoints and force conformity to pharmaceutical interests. The brief makes it clear that this is not just about my case—it’s about ensuring that doctors everywhere can speak freely about medical practices, without risking their careers.
This brief is a significant step forward in the fight for health freedom and the right to informed consent. I’m grateful to the AAPS for their unwavering support, and I’m hopeful that the U.S. Supreme Court will recognize the importance of this issue.

How the Medical Establishment Silences Dissent and What You Need to Know

It was Dr. Andrew Wakefield’s seminal 1998 article (discussed in JB Handley’s Substack) that planted the first seed of awareness for me. I recall thinking, Hmmm ... could vaccines be related to autism? That little thought reached—one that I imagine many parents have had— started my journey of inquiry. It took me almost a decade to reach the point of knowing, without a doubt, that toxins and vaccines (environmental factors) were either the direct cause or highly involved in the epidemic of chronic diseases in children, including autism.
Today, we have many studies that make it abundantly clear that our children are suffering due to what is being done to them—through vaccines, toxic food, fluoride in water, and more. Parents, if you are new to this journey of discovery, pause on the vaccines while you make it your mission to learn enough to make an informed decision.

​The Truth About Vaccine Safety

The books mentioned in JB Handley’s article are essential reads, but I also encourage you to explore my latest book, Vax Facts: What to Consider Before Vaccinating at All Ages & Stages of Life, co-authored with DeeDee Hoover (Just a Mom) and published in 2025.
In Vax Facts, I hold nothing back because I have nothing to lose now. I was forced to relinquish my medical license for publishing a pivotal vaxxed/unvaxxed study that demonstrated vaccinated children experience chronic diseases and infections at 300–800% greater severity than their unvaccinated counterparts. It was my first book, The Vaccine-Friendly Plan, that threatened the CDC’s "Vaccine Schedule" and triggered my persecution by the Oregon Medical Board.

Vaxxed/Unvaxxed Study

Visit Vaxx/Unvaxxed site

Rejecting Junk Science

​It is time we expose the truth. The flawed “tobacco science” that has kept parents in the dark about the dangers of vaccines needs to be rejected. Since no proper long-term studies exist on vaccine safety, we must assume they are all unsafe until proven otherwise. That is not an “anti-vaccine” or “anti-science” stance—it is simply applying the basic principles of scientific rigor.
I support RFK Jr. in calling for real scientific studies. Let’s get the data. The CDC, NIH, and every major medical institution are sitting on vast amounts of data. The solution is simple—just pull the data for all unvaccinated children, age-match them to vaccinated children, and examine all health outcomes. Then, report what you find.

Read This Powerful Blog Post by JB Handley

The fight for medical freedom continues, and one of the most important stories to understand is that of Dr. Andrew Wakefield. If you haven’t already, take the time to read JB Handley’s latest blog post. This article provides a deep dive into Wakefield’s research, the smear campaign against him, and the broader implications for vaccine safety and informed consent.

​A Critical Step Toward Exposing the Corruption in the Medical Board System and Regaining the Right to Practice

Dr. Paul Thomas, National Health Federation amicus brief, medical freedom, vaccine research, informed consent

Click to visit Dr. Paul's Fight

Hello to all health freedom friends and family,
In February 2025, the National Health Federation (NHF) filed an amicus brief supporting my petition before the U.S. Supreme Court. This brief highlights the injustice I’ve faced and the need for the Court to examine the actions of medical boards that punish those who challenge the vaccine narrative. After publishing research on the health outcomes of vaccinated versus unvaccinated children, I found myself targeted by the Oregon Medical Board, which revoked my medical license. The brief underscores the role of pharmaceutical interests in pushing medical boards to silence doctors who speak out.
​"Petitioner Dr. Paul Thomas is credible, likeable, published, and has over 500,000,000 views on his YouTube channel where he questions vaccines and features non-pharma options for families. His influence is the most likely reason his license was targeted by Respondents."
– National Health Federation Amicus Brief
Here are the key takeaways from the brief:
  • ​My Influence: With over 500 million views on my YouTube channel, I’ve built trust with families seeking non-pharmaceutical options for their children. My research on vaccines has helped many families make informed choices about their children's health.
  • The Role of Medical Boards: The brief calls attention to how state medical boards, target doctors like me who publish research showing the superior health outcomes of unvaccinated children, all while aligning with pharmaceutical interests.
  • Corruption and Censorship: The NHF argues that the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) is complicit in censoring those who challenge the mainstream narrative, particularly in regard to vaccines, by using their influence to revoke licenses and suppress research.
  • The Need for Justice: The brief emphasizes that my case is not just about me—it's about exposing the corruption in the medical licensing system and ensuring doctors can practice freely without fear of retaliation for their research and views.

​Why This Matters to You

This case is crucial not only for my ability to practice medicine but for the future of medical freedom and informed consent. The NHF’s brief brings to light how my case is emblematic of a larger problem where those who challenge the pharmaceutical agenda are silenced and persecuted. It’s about standing up for our right to provide accurate, unbiased information to families and to allow them to make informed decisions about their children’s health. The U.S. Supreme Court must address this systemic issue to protect our freedoms.

​Join Us in the Fight

I need your support now more than ever. This is a fight not just for my ability to continue my research and practice, but for the right of all doctors to speak openly and honestly about health matters, without fear of retaliation. Together, we can expose the corruption within the system and restore balance to medical practice.

Join Us in Celebrating the Success of Vax Facts and the Movement Toward Informed Health Decisions

The publication date for Vax Facts was December 10th, 2024, and I’m thrilled to share that it has already become a top 5 bestseller for 2024 with publisher Morgan James! We are overjoyed to announce that Vax Facts, co-authored by Dr. Paul Thomas and DeeDee Hoover—known fondly as J.A.M. (Just A Mom)—has achieved a monumental milestone. This recognition as one of Morgan James Publishing’s Top 5 Best-Selling Books of 2024 underscores the importance of empowering families to make informed health decisions and highlights the incredible support of our community.
A Milestone Worth Celebrating
This book is the culmination of my journey as a Dartmouth Medical School-trained, board-certified pediatrician. For years, I adhered to the guidelines of the CDC and the AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) regarding vaccines. But today, I am the proud author of Vax Facts, a book that reflects my evolving understanding of this critical issue for all ages and stages of life.
As I witnessed the alarming rise in developmental delays, autism, allergies, asthma, ADHD, diabetes, and other chronic conditions among children, I couldn’t stop asking why. When it became evident that vaccines were at least part of the reason for so many of these health challenges, I wrote The Vaccine-Friendly Plan. My goal with that book was to reduce aluminum exposure and slow down the vaccine schedule, which I believed moved far too quickly for infants and toddlers with developing brains and immune systems.
Now, in 2024, eight years later, we know so much more. My own data revealed that even The Vaccine-Friendly Plan was not safe enough. The harsh reality is that there are no vaccines on the current childhood schedule that have been properly tested for safety. None.
The studies used to support vaccines don’t rely on saline placebos as a control; instead, they compare one vaccine against another. Even when 5–10% of participants in both groups experience serious side effects, the vaccines are still considered “safe” because the outcomes are statistically similar. These studies are typically very short—days, in some cases—so they fail to capture long-term consequences like developmental delays, allergies, or autoimmune conditions. They often look only at specific outcomes, dismissing other negative effects as coincidences. Additionally, these pharma-funded studies never compare vaccinated individuals to unvaccinated ones, nor do they evaluate overall health outcomes or all-cause mortality.
Vax Facts simplifies these complex issues, empowering you to make informed decisions before you vaccinate. Once a vaccine is administered, it can’t be undone—so this book is a must-read for all parents and parents-to-be. The pharmaceutical industry is now aggressively targeting pregnant women and the elderly, making this book essential for everyone considering vaccines. With dedicated chapters on pregnancy and adult vaccinations,  it provides guidance for all ages and stages of life.
