Donald Trump’s private golf resort in South Florida will next week host one of the world’s leading purveyors of chlorine dioxide, a potentially life-threatening form of industrial bleach that is claimed without evidence to be a cure for cancer, Covid and autism.
Andreas Kalcker is among 50 listed speakers at the “Truth Seekers Conference”, a two-day event opening on Thursday at the US president’s resort, Trump National Doral Miami. The event features several anti-vaxxers and other conspiracy theorists who have been brought together by the far-right commentator Charlie Ward.
Kalcker, a German national thought to be living in Switzerland, markets the bleach under the brand name “CDS”, for chlorine dioxide solution. His online brochures claim that the toxic chemical, which he admits is a disinfectant, can “eliminate pathogens” that cause disease.
He boasts it is “possibly the greatest medical discovery of the last 100 years”.
I’m so conflicted on this
On the one hand, I fucking hate snake oil scam peddlers with a passion but on the other, this would kill off a lot of idiots who just deserve what’s coming for them. Sorry, but if you believe this shit you deserve all the consequences.
Fuck, he’s still working on injecting bleach to cure covid, isn’t he?
and dont forget to use mountain dew to water the plants!
What else would you use? Toilet water?
Like,… From the toilet?

As always, there’s a relevant xkcd
Has Trump even bothered with the pretence of ‘divesting’ himself of his properties this time around, or is that Just Another Thing We’re All OK With Now?
At least he’s marketing to the right people. Everyone there should drink a gallon of bleach a day. The health benefits for the entire world would be amazing.
The problem is these people are too chickenshit to drink it themselves. They make their children drink it to ward off autism or in place of vaccines.
I tried it once in my bad years. What a shitty way to die. Absolute agony, couldn’t eat for days from the chemical burns in my throat where I threw it up.
I hope they try it.
Let them drink bleach.
I’m so tired of this fucking clown world. Atleast it’s members of the maga cult being told this garbage. Maybe bird flu will bless us with a person to person jump and darwinism will take it from there.
This was originally marketed in 2006 as MMS, “Miracle Mineral Supplement.” An insane guy named Jim Humble experimented on people in Cameroon and Uganda with this, claiming it cured literally every disease. HIV/AIDS, malaria, dengue, cancer, meningitis, you name it.
At some point around 2016 even Humble admitted it doesn’t do anything. If you’ve ever maintained a swimming pool you know that you add acid to the water with chlorine to activate it. It’s exactly the same thing in a glass.
While it’s obviously harmful in high concentrations, ultimately, if you drink water with it, it dilutes to the point of being no more harmful than tap water from a large city. Not ideal for gut health long term, but honestly less terrible than eating breakfast cereal every day.
This is my fear with Bobby brain worms, his advocacy for and politically pushing these kinds of chemical torture grifts to idiot parents who are using them on their kids.
I’ve heard it permanently cures stupidity
What ever happened to Mike Lindel - the MyPillow guy?
Bleach is the new grape kool-aid. (it was technically Flavor-Aid brand)
