Eric Clapton Writes “THIS HAS GOT TO STOP!” Anti-Vaccine Song After Suffering Side-Effects
“This Has Gotta Stop” has emerged as a result of Eric Clapton’s horrible effects from the AstraZeneca “vaccine.” “My hands and feet were either frozen, numb, or burning,” he remarked. “I knew that something was going on wrong/When you started laying down the law/I can’t move my hands, I break out in sweat/I wanna cry, I can’t take it anymore.” In the chorus, he sings, “This has gotta stop/Enough is enough/I can’t take this BS any longer.”
Clapton is ranked as one of “the 100 greatest guitar players of all time” and is a legendary British rock star. He is, quite literally, one of the world’s most famous living musicians. And the star is sick and tired of being sick and tired from the COVID-19 vaccine.
And Clapton intends to do something about it. Something unprecedented and BIG. “The singer-guitarist is scheduled to perform a handful of U.S. concerts, primarily in the South, starting Sept. 15 in Austin. Last month Clapton reportedly posted a statement on film producer Robin Monotti Graziadei’s Telegram account that he would not play any venues that required proof of vaccinations for entry.
That’s right, Clapton is standing up for the rights of the American people.
According to USA TODAY, “Clapton also seemingly makes reference to some of the repercussions he said he experienced after receiving the vaccine with the lyrics, ‘I knew that something was going on wrong/When you started laying down the law/I can’t move my hands, I break out in sweat/I wanna cry, I can’t take it anymore.'”
According to the news outlet, “The singer-guitarist is scheduled to perform a handful of U.S. concerts, primarily in the South, starting Sept. 15 in Austin. Last month Clapton reportedly posted a statement on film producer Robin Monotti Graziadei’s Telegram account that he would not play any venues that required proof of vaccinations for entry.”
The lyrics are as below:
This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can’t take this BS any longer
It’s gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You’ll have to come and break down this door
I knew that something was going on wrong
When you started laying down the law
I can’t move my hands
I break out in sweat
I wanna cry
Can’t take it anymore
This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can’t take this BS any longer
It’s gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You’ll have to come and break down this door
I’ve been around
Long long time
Seen it all
And I’m used to being free
I know who I am
Try to do what’s right
So lock me up and throw away the key
This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can’t take this BS any longer
It’s gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You’ll have to come and break down this door
Thinkin’ of my kids
What’s left for them
And then what’s coming down the road
The light in the tunnel
Could be the southbound train
Lord, please help them with their load
This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can’t take this BS any longer
It’s gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You’ll have to come and break down this door
This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can’t take this BS any longer
It’s gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You’ll have to come and break down this door
This has got to stop!
Gianforte Frees School Kids’ Faces with Executive Fiat
The Biden Administration, rather than dealing with the chaotic state of Afghanistan in what has become the most embarrassing blunder of American foreign policy in more than half-century, has instead chosen to pick on Republican states by opening a “Civil Rights Investigation” for not requiring schools to cover the faces of children, who are – for all intents and purposes – virtually immune from symptoms or transmission of COVID-19.
Apparently, in the mind of Joe Biden, being given the option to mask-up – rather than being forced – is a violation of civil rights. On August 18, Biden issued a memorandum promising to weaponize the Federal Department of Education to support school boards requiring masks in states where schools have been forbidden by law from requiring masks.
That memo read…
…some State governments have adopted policies and laws that interfere with the ability of schools and districts to keep our children safe during in-person learning. Some of these policies and laws have gone so far as to try to block school officials from adopting safety protocols aligned with recommendations from the CDC to protect students, educators, and staff.
He concluded…
“I direct the Secretary of Education to assess all available tools in taking action, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law…” before promising to sue, harass, or intimidate states that have passed legislation against forced masking.
States initially chosen to be harassed by the feds include Iowa, South Carolina, Utah, Oklahoma and Tennessee. These states all have one thing in common; they have passed laws forbidding school districts from forced masking.
Montana did not receive such a notice, primarily because Montana did not pass such a law (although laws were passed forbidding vaccine discrimination, laws placing health officials under the power of elected officials, and forbidding local or county governments to surpass statewide mandates).
Numerous schools in Montana’s “blue dot cities” (towns chosen by leftists to turn Montana blue like Bozeman, Missoula, Whitefish, and Helena) have indicated a return to masking. But not anymore; Gianforte has stopped them. The School District of Billings, although not qualifying (yet) as a “blue dot city,” has also required masking.
Governor Gianforte has issued a temporary emergency rule through the Department of Health and Human Services that the federal rule handed out by the Biden Memo, referencing the CDC’s schizophrenic, ever-changing rules, is based upon “inconclusive research.”
Indeed, he’s right. There’s no empirical data to suggest that masking stops the spread of COVID-19, and in fact, there’ more scientific data suggesting that masking has adverse health effects.
So then, who will be in charge of whether kids are forced to cover their faces? It’s not the feds, the states, or the local districts. Thanks to Governor Gianforte, it will be the parents.
Gianforte ordered schools take into account “parental concerns” when adopting mask mandates and provide parents the ability opt-out of health-related mandates for a wide array of reasons including physical and mental health, developmental needs, religious beliefs, and moral convictions.
If you would like an exemption for ordained Montana clergy to opt-out of masking or vaccines, please email Jordan@GideonKnox.com to request one.
Bozeman School Superintendent Appears Illiterate, Unable to Read Gianforte’s Ban on Forced Masking
The Bozeman School District has a message for you: You do not own your children; they do.
As previously reported in the Montana Daily Gazette, Governor Greg Gianforte issued a temporary emergency order demanding that schools allow for parents to be the ultimate deciders of whether or not their kids wear masks.
As MDG reported…
Gianforte ordered schools take into account “parental concerns” when adopting mask mandates and provide parents the ability opt-out of health-related mandates for a wide array of reasons including physical and mental health, developmental needs, religious beliefs, and moral convictions.
Unfortunately, Bozeman – the “blue dot city” primarily focused upon by leftists and federal agencies to become a hub like Portland or Seattle to turn the entire state blue – has repeatedly gravitated toward federal mandates and ignored the orders of state legislators, governor, and attorney general.
MDG has covered this before, in the posts “Gallatin County/Bozeman Eager to Obey Biden’s Order to Put Masks Back On,” chronicling their pandering attempts to usurp state power in favor of Washington D.C. edicts. Its (now former) health officer, Matt Kelley, tried to defy Attorney General Austin Knudsen’s order to stop persecuting and dining and drinking establishment breaking Gallatin County’s curfew. Over and again, Bozeman has been the focus of outside Dark Money groups, striving mightily control the city council and school boards to subvert Montana values. For just a few MDG articles chronicling this, click here.
However, despite Gianforte’s ruling, the Bozeman School District still insists that parents have no say over their children’s faces.
A fake news outlet, Bozeman Chronicle – owned out-of-state by far-left extremists, explains…
Bozeman School District’s mask requirement will remain in place after officials said its policy is in accordance with an emergency rule from the Department of Public Health and Human Services urging districts to prioritize parents’ decisions in regards to masking.
The school district has claimed that the term from Gianforte’s “shall take into consideration” leaves them – the school district – to keep the policy in place so long as they simply “consider” the opinions of parents (who they will happily ignore). Keep in mind, it was the Gallatin Board of Public Health that walked out of their own meeting rather than allow public comment (read about that travesty of American civics here).
Also citing the Chronicle, “Superintendent Casey Bertram said in a release a few hours after the announcement from DPHHS. The district reads the rule as permissive as it specifically provides that school districts ‘should consider’ parental concerns and ‘should provide’ an opt-out system for certain reasons. The district has done both,” Bertram said.
However, a careful reading of Gianforte’s order demonstrates that the school board’s interpretation is too generous to their own bias.
Consider, for example, this excerpt from Gianforte’s order.
It is unknown if school superintendent Casey Bertram is literate, but the order states that schools must “provide the ability for student, and/or parents or guardians on behalf of their children, to choose to opt-out based on physical, mental, emotional, or psychological health concerns, as well as the on the basis of religious belief, moral conviction, or other fundamental rights…”
Gianforte’s order is clear. The Bozeman school’s reading comprehension is not.

Texas Law Banning Abortions After 6 Weeks Goes Into Effect Today
Three months ago Texas Governor Greg Abbot signed a fetal heartbeat bill into law, making it illegal to have an abortion once the heartbeat can be detected, which can happen as early as 6 weeks.
The law, which goes into effect today, makes it illegal for any physician to abort a baby if he or she can detect a heartbeat, as well as bars them from engaging in their murderous practices if they haven’t performed an ultrasound first to detect that heartbeat.
Any abortion provider not following these practices can be sued and subject to civil action by any interested party (The girl, her boyfriend, her husband, a friend, etc.), to be awarded no less than $10,000 and all attorney fees.
Planned Parenthood, the apex predator of the baby-killing world, has vowed to fight it tooth and nail, and is joined by President Biden, who also pledges to uphold Roe v. Wade
This is the first time a ban of this kind has been permitted in any state since 1973, and comes after the U.S. Supreme Court declined a request by pro-choice groups and lobbyists to block the law.
While some groups like National Right to Life and the ERLC which have consistently opposed abolition for years have cheered the new law, not all groups believe this is the be-all-end-all. Free the States, an abortion abolition group, shared in a message to supporters on their Facebook page that there was dep trouble with this, including:
1) It is fundamentally unjust, unbiblical, and dehumanizing to children without a heartbeat. Further, the whole purpose of this particular heartbeat bill was to go around the federal courts by having citizens, instead of the state, enforce the law. If the idea is that the federal courts won’t be able to do anything about it, there is absolutely no reason they had to stop at a heartbeat. They could have gone all the way but chose not to. It’s an addiction to compromise.
2)…The child sacrifice center parking lots (in Ft Worth and San Antonio) are as full as ever this morning. We’ll have to see whether the private enforcement pans out but it doesn’t seem likely to us that it will, and the abortionists don’t seem to think so either.
If any lives are saved by this bill, we praise God for that. But we also pray that the eyes of Texans and pro-lifers would be opened to the need to call for and work for justice to be established without iniquitous, dehumanizing compromise.
Tim Keller Sends Well-Wishes To Atheist Appointed to Head of Harvard Chaplains
In another “of course he did” moment, Tim Keller has sent well-wishes to the new atheist appointed to the head of Harvard, begging the question of what it means to “wish him well?”
Keller, as the founder of The Gospel Coalition and cultural Marxist extraordinaire, has a long history of saying mystifying things, such as when his church called for more same-sex intimacy in churches, said that if you have white skin, the bible says you’re involved in injustice, trashed the Social Justice and the Gospel Statement, endorsed the notion of a “gay Christian,” affirmed Christians have “liberty of conscience” to vote for pro-abortion Democrats, and explained that Christians will be purged from government and schools and that they brought it on themselves.
In fact, he’s usually so bad and distinctive in his wrongness, that we created a Tweet Generator about him.
n his role as head of the chaplains, Epstein, who himself served as the humanist chaplain for 15 years, will seek to coordinate nearly 40 chaplains below him representing 20 different religions, ensuring that these pagans have success in deepening and passing on their blasphemous religious teachings to their students.
Furthermore, Epstein himself mentors dozens of students, and in his role will continue to give them advice in ungodly ideologies, such as the advice he gave Adelle Goldenberg, a 22-year-old student as reported in the New York Times, who reveals:
“He showed me that it’s possible to find community outside a traditional religious context, that you can have the value-add religion has provided for centuries, which is that it’s there when things seem chaotic.”
Wooo! Congrats on being able to do more of that…congratulations on how ‘well’ that’s going.
We’ve no illusions that Harvard is a bastion of Christian faith or anything like that, but it’s one thing to wish someone well at a secular job, and it’s another thing when religion and the offense of false religions to the Lord come into play. We also would never wish that an atheist has any success in his role as the head of chaplains. We don’t want the other religious chaplains to have a calm, productive and serene time, but rather have a chaotic mess of confusion and difficulty so that their job is harder to do, and so they won’t have smooth sailing when it comes to the religious instruction of their adherents.
Congrats and “well wishes?”
We don’t think so.
