Chief Warrant Officer-3 Brandon Budge has served with distinction as a Blackhawk pilot for over 21 years, flying missions in Afghanistan, the Middle East, and across the globe. But now, he’s being forced out of the Army — not for misconduct, but for resisting a genetic injection mandate that has since been acknowledged as unlawful.
On January 27, President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to reinstate all service members who were discharged for refusing the 2021 COVID-19 mRNA shot mandate. The order promises full reinstatement with backpay and restored benefits. Just months later, on May 7, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth declared the mandate “unlawful as implemented” in a formal memo to Department of Defense leadership:

But for Budge and many others, justice hasn’t come.
In our interview, Budge described how he was pressured relentlessly to take the mRNA injection — despite having natural immunity after recovering from COVID and deep concerns about the shot’s safety. When he refused, he was isolated, demoted, and threatened with career destruction.
Even when his wife faced a high-risk pregnancy and doctors warned of possible early delivery, Budge’s request to remain stateside was denied. His command made it clear: “Even if your wife is on her deathbed, you won’t be coming home” — unless he complied with the mRNA shot mandate.
Desperate to be allowed to see his wife in the event of a medical emergency, Budge took matters into his own hands. He obtained an FDA-labeled version of the shot off-post, hoping it would satisfy the requirement and protect his family. But his command retaliated anyway. His promotion to CW-4 was revoked — costing him nearly $1,000 a month — and he was grounded from flight duty for 18 months. A formal flying evaluation board ultimately cleared him of any wrongdoing, but the damage was already done.
Today, he and his wife have spent over $40,000 in legal fees trying to reverse the injustice. His appeal for backpay and promotion was recently denied. If nothing changes by September 1, he will be discharged.

The broader impact of the unlawful mandate is staggering: suicides among service members surged, careers were destroyed, families were torn apart. And across the country, the same fate befell law enforcement officers, firefighters, nurses, and countless others who refused to comply with experimental mandates now shown to have caused widespread harm.
Budge is advocating for the creation of an independent board dedicated solely to reviewing and reversing damage caused by the mandate, outside the slow and biased processes of the current military bureaucracy.
“I know that that every time you turn around it seems like it’s a loss, but we have to keep pushing forward. It’s the only way we right these wrongs and we make sure that they don’t happen again.” – Brandon Budge

The Worldwide Corona Crisis, Global Coup d’Etat Against Humanity
by Michel Chossudovsky
Michel Chossudovsky reviews in detail how this insidious project “destroys people’s lives”. He provides a comprehensive analysis of everything you need to know about the “pandemic” — from the medical dimensions to the economic and social repercussions, political underpinnings, and mental and psychological impacts.
“My objective as an author is to inform people worldwide and refute the official narrative which has been used as a justification to destabilize the economic and social fabric of entire countries, followed by the imposition of the “deadly” COVID-19 “vaccine”. This crisis affects humanity in its entirety: almost 8 billion people. We stand in solidarity with our fellow human beings and our children worldwide. Truth is a powerful instrument.”
Reviews
This is an in-depth resource of great interest if it is the wider perspective you are motivated to understand a little better, the author is very knowledgeable about geopolitics and this comes out in the way Covid is contextualized. —Dr. Mike Yeadon
In this war against humanity in which we find ourselves, in this singular, irregular and massive assault against liberty and the goodness of people, Chossudovsky’s book is a rock upon which to sustain our fight. –Dr. Emanuel Garcia
In fifteen concise science-based chapters, Michel traces the false covid pandemic, explaining how a PCR test, producing up to 97% proven false positives, combined with a relentless 24/7 fear campaign, was able to create a worldwide panic-laden “plandemic”; that this plandemic would never have been possible without the infamous DNA-modifying Polymerase Chain Reaction test – which to this day is being pushed on a majority of innocent people who have no clue. His conclusions are evidenced by renown scientists. —Peter Koenig
Professor Chossudovsky exposes the truth that “there is no causal relationship between the virus and economic variables.” In other words, it was not COVID-19 but, rather, the deliberate implementation of the illogical, scientifically baseless lockdowns that caused the shutdown of the global economy. –David Skripac
A reading of Chossudovsky’s book provides a comprehensive lesson in how there is a global coup d’état under way called “The Great Reset” that if not resisted and defeated by freedom loving people everywhere will result in a dystopian future not yet imagined. Pass on this free gift from Professor Chossudovsky before it’s too late. You will not find so much valuable information and analysis in one place. –Edward Curtin
