After discovering whistleblower data about the deaths of 19 service members who were treated with remdesivir for COVID-19 at Eglin Air Force Base, Sharon Burns reached out to this author to share her husband’s story.

In a previous report by The Gateway Pundit, it was revealed that across the Department of Defense (DoD) that 601 of 941 patients who died between March 2020 and March 2024 were treated with remdesivir. The data set below captures service members, retirees, and dependents, including those from Eglin AFB.

Mrs. Burns brought her husband, a retired Air Force veteran, to Eglin AFB hospital on August 3, 2020, with symptoms of COVID-19.

Sadly, on August 11, 2020, Mrs. Burns lost her beloved husband of 44 years. In the years following Michael’s death, Mrs. Burns admitted that she was “living in a fog,” but now has the strength to go public with her husband’s story.

She and her husband suspected  COVID-19 near the end of July 2020, she told The Gateway Pundit. With Mr. Burns’ symptoms getting worse, she drove him to the emergency room about five days later.

“While I parked our car, he walked in under his own power—but when I got to the door, they wouldn’t let me in,” she said.

After waiting outside for nearly three hours, she finally received a phone call to inform her that Mr. Burns was being admitted to the hospital.

“This day was the last time I ever saw him,” she shared.

Mrs. Burns was only able to maintain contact with her husband for the four days following his admission into the hospital, and according to him, his health improved during this time.

“They were watching him for ‘the critical days’ of five through nine,” she was told. “But on the sixth day, things were starting to look worse, [particularly with his breathing].”

“At around 7 o’clock in the morning of the ninth day, I received a phone call, informing me that my husband was going to die that day,” Mrs. Burns said. She was told that her husband was going to suffer from “a major heart attack” and that he had also agreed to a “do not resuscitate” or DNR order, as well as comfort care.

Later that same afternoon, she was informed that her 67-year-old husband, who was previously “in decent health,” passed away from respiratory failure.

“I was angry that he was alone,” she shared. “No patient should ever be alone without support or an advocate.” She likens the circumstance to an “inhumane solitary confinement.”

With regard to her husband’s death, it has been clearly determined that the use of remdesivir can result in many potential organ-based adverse effects, including respiratory failure, pneumonia, and pneumothorax.

“I started to learn about a COVID standard of care in the hospitals that was not the regular standard of care [for other respiratory illnesses],” Mrs. Burns explained, as her husband battled each of these adverse effects.

“Records show [Mr. Burns] received the standard 200 mg remdesivir on admittance, followed by 100 mg every day for eight days,” she said. Interestingly, she learned through a doctor unaffiliated with Eglin AFB that “my husband appears to have died from an untreated viral pneumonia and that a lot of information is missing from his medical records.”

Could Remdesivir’s use in the hospital’s COVID-19 treatment protocol be the cause of death for Mrs. Burns’ husband? According to her, the answer is yes. She believes the drug, with its history of lethality, contributed to her husband’s death.

Mrs. Burns pointed out that, to this day, Eglin AFB has provided very little about her husband’s medical records. She said, “My husband’s Medicine Administration Record (MAR) and the nurse’s intervention notes are missing.”

Because her husband would have been receiving a drug approved for emergency use only at the time (prior to October 22, 2020), there should have also been a signed informed consent form. Such a form has not been made available.

Mrs. Burns also questions whether there should be a signed DNR, or a record of a verbal agreement. And finally, she added, “Tricare cannot even find my husband’s billing records, which they usually keep for ten years.”

Why is Eglin AFB failing to help Mrs. Burns find the truth about her husband’s death? Did they fail to keep accurate records? Or are they hiding something, perhaps?

To learn more about service members and veterans who were treated with remdesivir and passed away, the author submitted Freedom of Information Act requests to the Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on January 14, 2025.

These were the requested records:

  1. The total number of service members/veterans diagnosed and treated for COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021.
  2. Of those, the number who were treated with remdesivir.
  3. The total number of service members/veterans who died from COVID-19 in 2020 and in 2021.
  4. Of those service members/veterans who died, the number who were treated with remdesivir.

On March 6, the VA responded by citing two exemptions to justify withholding the information. In summary, it was suggested that personally identifiable information was requested and that the information requested does not outweigh the privacy interest of the case.

In an appeal currently under review by the VA’s Office of General Counsel, it was argued that neither of the exemptions are applicable to the information that was requested.

The FOIA request sent to DoD had an expected completion date of March 25, 2025, but the current status suggests it has only been “assigned for processing.”

Mrs. Burns encourages readers to visit the COVID-19 Humanity Betrayal Memory Project, and become active in sharing stories like her husband’s.

“We need justice,” she lamented.

Black Lives Matter Activist in Boston Pleads Guilty to Federal Fraud Charges – Scammed Donors to Fund Her Lifestyle

Screencap of YouTube video.

A Black Lives Matter activist in Boston named Monica Cannon-Grant pleaded guilty to federal charges this week, admitting that she scammed donors and used their money to fund her own lavish lifestyle.

Cannon-Grant was previously held up as an admired figure. The city of Boston named her the Bostonian of the year at one point for her ‘social justice activism’ and she was even recognized by the Boston Celtics basketball team for her efforts.

She is now facing a minimum of two years in prison.

The New York Post reports:

BLM-linked activist admits conning donors to fund her lavish lifestyle

A once-celebrated Boston social activist has pleaded guilty to defrauding donors — including Black Lives Matter — out of thousands of dollars that she used as a personal piggy bank.

Monica Cannon-Grant, 44, pleaded guilty Monday to 18 counts of fraud-related crimes that she committed with her late husband while operating their Violence in Boston (VIB) activists group, according to the US Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts.

The activist scammed money — including $3,000 from a BLM group — while claiming it was to help feed children and run protests like one in 2020 over the murder of George Floyd and police violence.

Cannon-Grant also conned her way into getting $100,000 in federal pandemic-related unemployment benefits — which she used to pay off her personal auto loan and car insurance policy.

But she has now confessed to transferring funds to personal bank accounts to pay for rent, shopping sprees, delivery meals, visits to a nail salon — and even a summer vacation to Maryland.

Just amazing.

Here’s a local video report:

She should pay back every penny.

Keith Olbermann Backpedals Furiously With Apology for Threatening CNN’s Scott Jennings – Jennings Responds (VIDEO)

As the Gateway Pundit reported yesterday, former MSNBC host and generally unhinged leftist Keith Olbermann, appeared to threaten CNN’s conservative pundit Scott Jennings on Twitter saying, ‘You’re next motherf**ker.’

Well, Olbermann may have gotten a phone call or a visit from the FBI because today he walked back those comments with a full-throated apology.

RedState has an update:

To quickly recap, Scott Jennings, a Salem Media Network radio host and conservative CNN political commentator, reacted to breaking news on Monday that Kimmel had been reinstated by tweeting, “So basically his employer suspended him for being an insensitive pr**k, and we don’t live in an authoritarian regime? Got it.”

This enraged Olbermann, who proceeded to tweet what many, including Jennings, perceived to be a threat. “You’re next, motherf**ker. But keep mugging to the camera.” Jennings tagged Patel and included a screengrab of the tweets in response.

Though the FBI hasn’t commented as to whether an investigation was launched, Olbermann ostensibly appears to have thought twice about what he tweeted and deleted, apologizing profusely in tweets posted on Tuesday and claiming what he wrote was “misinterpreted”:

See Olbermann’s tweet below:

Scott Jennings, always a class act, offered this hilarious response:

Keith Olbermann really needs help. The guy is just so out of control.

Where is Lance Twiggs? Kirk Assassin’s Transgender Lover Has Vanished

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson and roommate Lance Twiggs

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson lived with his transgender partner – a male-to-female trans named Lance “Luna” Twiggs.

The FBI used Robinson’s texts with his transgender partner to solidify that Robinson was the assassin. Lance Twiggs has not been charged with any crime; however, federal authorities are still investigating.

Last week, Utah authorities released the text exchange between Tyler Robinson and his transgender lover, Lance Twiggs, sent shortly after Kirk’s assassination.

Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray announced seven charges against Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson. They will also be seeking the death penalty.

Robinson was charged with:

– Count 1: Aggravated murder (capital offense)
– Count 2: Felony reckless discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury
– Count 3: Felony obstruction of justice for hiding the firearm
– Count 4: Felony obstruction of justice for discarding the clothing he wore during the shooting
– Count 5: Witness tampering for asking roommate to delete incriminating messages
– Count 6: Witness temperating for demanding trans roommate stay silent, and not speak to police
– Count 7: Commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child

Jeff Gray released the chilling texts between Tyler Robinson and his “love” Lance Twiggs.

Read the text exchange here:

Lance Twiggs was reportedly cooperating with the FBI, however, according to the Daily Mail he has seemingly vanished.

“If [Lance Twiggs] ever comes back, it will be in a body bag,” a neighbor said to the Daily Mail. “That’s not a threat – I’m just saying that there are so many people who want a piece of him he’d be mad to show his face in public again. This was a generational event.”

The Daily Mail reported:

The Trans boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin has fled their former lovenest – and locals tell the Daily Mail they never want to see him again.

Lance Twiggs, 22, was led away for questioning when police swooped on the smart three-bed condo he shared with accused gunman Tyler Robinson, 22.

Shaken neighbors say the part time plumber has not been back to the $320,000 property in St. George, Utah – one declaring: ‘Good riddance. I never want to see either of them again.’

His beaten-up Infinity compact is still parked in his space with his work gear tossed across the back seat and a sandwich wrapper and a drink on the front passenger seat.

Upstairs lights have been left on for more than a week and notes and Amazon packages are piling up outside the home owned by Twiggs’s devout Mormon family.
