The Systematic Murdering Of Children In Brazil

(Yup. That's the title I'm going with...)

I’m sitting here at the verge of this rabbit hole —

speechless. (and anyone who knows me knows

that that practically never happens!)

What’s happening in Brazil right now isn’t just

heartbreaking—it’s monstrous.

It’s tyranny with a smile.

Evil wrapped in a bow.

History is plagued with the atrocities of

governments, each one leaving a scar on the

soul of humanity.

But what Brazil is doing to its children is beyond

the standard governmental disgrace —it’s a

betrayal of innocence, a crime against the most

vulnerable.

It defies reason, defies morality—almost

unimaginable.

And yet, here we are.

A Mother’s Plea.

It’s 2025.

In most of the world, COVID mandates are a

distant memory. Families have returned to

normal—baseball games, ballet recitals,

birthday parties. The darkest days of the

pandemic are behind us. Our attention has

shifted to new battles—political turmoil, war in

Gaza and Ukraine, the Epstein list.

But in Brazil, mothers are still fighting.

They never had the luxury of moving on. They

never stopped.

They have no choice. They are not among the

lucky ones.

Since January 2024, Brazilian parents have

faced an impossible reality: they are forced to

vaccinate their children—ages 6 months to 5

years—with three doses of the Pfizer

COVID-19 vaccine.

For many around the world, vaccine mandates

were a looming threat—policies debated,

protested, and, in some cases, resisted. But in

Brazil, there is no debate. No exemptions. No

alternatives. No way out. It’s crucial to

recognize the stark difference between a

mandate and forced compliance under duress.

In Brazil, there is no escape.

Parents who resist face harsh penalties:

Crippling fines amounting to thousands --

sometimes tens of thousands — of US

dollars.

Police intimidation and threats for

noncompliance.

Stripping of parental rights and loss of

parental control.

Brazilian parents are living a nightmare. They

are trapped in the middle of a battlefield,

standing at the crossroads of morality and

tyranny, autonomy and state control.

The severity of the draconian measures is

beyond comprehension—a reality so

unimaginable that barely any parent in America

or other industrialized nations has ever been

forced to endure it.

This is not a “mandate” in the way Americans

think of it—something with possible

workarounds. There is no homeschooling

loophole. There is no religious exemption. There

is no fighting it in court. There is only

submission—or dire consequence.

They fight because they have no choice.

They fight because surrender means risking

their children’s lives.

Imagine living in a world where every day you

wonder: who will be the next casualty in this

war — and will it be my child?

What Brazilian mothers face is unprecedented—

a level of state-imposed coercion that strips

them of all choice, all voice, and all hope for a

way out.

This is not merely a fight against a vaccine

mandate. It is a fight for who gets to decide

what’s best for children: the mother or the

state.

It is a battle for the fundamental right of every

mother to protect her child.

Rule by Decree

What makes this injustice even more egregious

is how it was imposed.

This wasn’t a law debated in parliament. There

were no hearings. No votes. No experts called

to testify. No opportunity for parents to voice

their concerns.

It was not legislated—it was dictated.

A mere technical note from the Ministry of

Health was all it took to mandate the COVID

vaccination for children, bypassing Brazil’s

entire democratic process.

And the injustice doesn’t end there. Brazil’s

entire system is complicit in this violation of

rights.

Judges—who are meant to be the defenders of

justice and democracy—have overwhelmingly

sided with coercion. As of 2024, despite

mounting evidence of vaccine harm, 93% of

Brazilian judges still express trust in it.

These courts aren’t just endorsing these

mandates—they are enforcing them.

88% of judges support immunity passports.

Over two-thirds approve of vaccinating

children and adolescents without parental

consent.

56.1% outright reject any opposition to

vaccination.

75% believe the government should have the

power to punish those who refuse

vaccination

According to President Lula:

"We must criminalize those who do not

vaccinate their children".

This is not about public health.

This is about power.

And the ones paying the price are the smallest,

most fragile, and most innocent among us.

Global Control, Local Victims

This mandate is just the latest chapter in Brazil’s

long battle against political manipulation and

global influence.

Brazilian history is defined by resistance to

forced medical interventions. From the 1904

Vaccine Revolt—when citizens took to the

streets in protest of mandatory smallpox

inoculations—to the ongoing resistance against

COVID mandates, Brazilians have long

distrusted state-imposed medical decisions,

driven by skepticism of government motives

and foreign influence.

The most recent example of this resistance

came from former President Jair Bolsonaro,

who openly opposed vaccine mandates,

lockdowns, and strict COVID measures. His

stance was rooted in a commitment to science,

to the well-being of children, and to protecting

individual freedoms.

But his defiance was met with a ruthless

crackdown.

Regional leaders defied him, implementing

harsher restrictions despite federal

opposition.

Judges upheld authoritarian measures,

refusing to recognize parental rights.

Global forces tightened their grip, using

international partnerships, foreign aid, and

trade agreements as leverage.

Bolsonaro’s resistance was more than just

political defiance—it was a fight for Brazilian

sovereignty, for the right to chart its own course

free from external interference.

But global forces—in the form of WHO

directives, pharmaceutical giants, and

international political bodies—maintain an iron

grip over the country, stripping Brazilian families

of the fundamental human right to make

informed medical decisions.

Brazil has become a high-stakes battleground,

where global power players dictate the rules,

using the country as a pawn to further their own

agendas.

The Silencing of Truth

In Brazil, speaking out against these injustices

comes at a steep price.

Journalists and doctors who dare to question

the official narrative are silenced. Laws enacted

in 2023 have made it dangerous—even illegal—

to challenge government policies. The threat of

arrest hangs over every voice of dissent. Fear

has silenced the truth.

And yet, the most terrifying result of this is a

nation where parents are forced to suffer in

silence, helpless to protect their children from

an unrelenting government machine.

Fortunately, not all voices have been silenced.

Even in the darkest corners, light refuses to die.

Amidst the weight of oppressive tyranny, there

are those who refuse to bend. There are those

who rise from the ashes—unshaken and

unwavering.

These are the true heroes: the mothers, the

activists, the voices that refuse to be muted.

They stand tall in defiance, knowing the risks,

knowing the dangers, but with a fire in their

hearts that nothing can extinguish.

John Kage, an activist fighting for Brazil’s

children, is one such hero.

Even in the most dire of circumstances, John

has found ways to push back.

Even when the world seemed deaf to their cries,

John found a way to amplify the mothers’ tears.

He reached across borders, calling on the

global community to stand with Brazil’s

children. He rallied warriors like Dr. Peter

McCullough, Dr. Pierre Kory, Dr. Maria Mogg, Dr.

Geert Bossche, Dr. Chris Flowers, Dr. Jessica

Rose, Dr. Alejandro Dias, and me — each of us

united in this fight for the innocent.

When speaking out was a crime punishable by

arrest, John carved out spaces for truth. When

you couldn’t speak outside the system, he

brought the meetings in. He hosted public

hearings in state houses and chambers, giving

voice to the voiceless and forcing these

conversations into the light of day, on national

television where they could no longer be

ignored.

John shows us that there is no force too

powerful or too strong to hold back the power

of a mother’s love. He risks everything because

he knows what’s at stake: the future of Brazil’s

children.

But John Kage can’t do it alone.

The warriors in Brazil are trapped in a battle that

could change the course of history, armed only

with their courage and the love they hold for

their children. They need reinforcements. They

need our help.

International voices have forced Brazil’s

government to back down before. It is time we

do it again.

If it is the global elites who are driving these

mandates, why not use that same global

pressure to dismantle them?

We cannot stand by as innocent children are

sacrificed to corporate and political agendas.

Brazilian families need us—those of us beyond

the reach of their government’s tyranny—to be

their voices.

Speak out. Share their stories. Demand

accountability.

Because when a government turns its back on

its children, it is no longer just a Brazilian issue—

it is a global one. The world must rise in

defense.

Will we stand by and watch as innocence is

sacrificed?

Or will we stand with them?

The time to act is now. Their future depends on

it.
