Gina shares her journey into health and wellness, driven by her experiences supporting parents of injured children and raising her son with Down syndrome. She criticizes the influence of the American Medical Association (AMA) and other medical lobbies, advocating for holistic approaches and the freedom to choose alternative healthcare options over standard allopathic advice.
Gina, an accomplished talk show host, a mother of five, a busy businesswoman, how did you
go down this rabbit hole of health and wellness and tell us what you've learned?
First, I want to say, I've been coming to CPAC since I was 20 years old.
Phyllis Schlafly, you guys still remember her, right?
She brought me my first one.
This is the freest CPAC we've ever had, hats off to Matt and Mercedes and the whole team
because if you had even named a panel, yes, you can clap for them, absolutely.
Let's think back four years.
If you had even named a panel, cigars, steaks, and ivermectin, first of all, I think we would
have been raided.
They would have hauled us all into J6 jail cells, who knows what they would have done,
and they would have investigated all of us, and yeah, it would have been a whole travesty,
but here we are, what a beautiful celebration that we can even, and Matt Schlafly gets credit
for naming this, I asked him, did you think of that, and he said yes, but it is such an
honor to be with you guys again, and I got into this.
My husband was in the Senate in Missouri, and there were parades of people that would
come through that were just voiceless, moms and dads who lost children because of vaccine
mishaps, because of the children being born in hospitals where infection rates are much
higher than when children are born at home.
Our state of Missouri, it was a felony to deliver a baby at home.
The American Medical Association is one of the biggest lobbies nobody talks about.
It's not just big pharma, it's big APA, American Psychological Association, big medicine, AMA,
and all the rest of it, and they do a great job of making you feel like a quack, at least
they did then, so my husband and I made it our effort to flip that bill on its head,
and made one of the free estates, Missouri one of the free estates, where you can have
a home birth, but it was those parents that came into his office every day.
I was there homeschooling my five children, and I would listen to their stories, and everybody
would say, oh, that's anecdotal.
When I'd try to talk to the doctors, lobbyists, or people like that, they'd say, oh, that's
anecdotal, those people are crazy.
I'm like, well, they've got a dead kid, or they have a disabled child, or this horrible
thing happened in their family, and there's a lot of them, a lot more of them than there
were people saying, no, you should believe all of the allopathic medical advice that
the AMA wants to give us, so anyway, that's what started me down my path.
I adopted a little boy with Down syndrome.
He had 10 congenital diseases when he was born.
I followed holistic homeopathic, I'm still learning because she's teaching me the difference,
but I followed advice.
He was born with Down syndrome and these other conditions today.
He's 20 years old, working full-time, having a great life, he's the laughter in our family,
and it was because I ignored the AMA, so that taught me.
Thank you, Gina.
