Why is a $20M Dem Donor About to Jump Ship?
“They don't share any of my core values at all anymore.”
WASHINGTON, DC – In 2003, former U.S. Senator and Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, presented Steve Kirsch, along with his wife Michele, with the National Caring Award from the Caring Institute in Washington DC. The Caring Awards promote and honor acts of caring and humanitarian service around the country and internationally.
Kirsch, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur, an MIT graduate, and philanthropist, has founded seven highly successful companies.
At the beginning of COVID-19, Steve funded the first studies on the repurposed drug Fluvoxamine as an early treatment for the virus and the successful results were featured on 60 Minutes in April of 2021. He also has been profiled in Forbes Magazine and pens one of the most read Substacks on Twitter.
Kirsch is a cancer survivor, having been diagnosed with Waldenstrom’s Macroglobulinemia, a rare blood cancer, in 2007. He turned to world-renowned scientists to develop a treatment that has proved effective beyond his projected life expectancy. The story was the feature of his profile in Forbes magazine.
Kirsch has received several additional awards for his philanthropy including the Environmentalists of The Year award from the Santa Clara, California chapter of the League of Conservation Voters, and the “the 100 Awards” presented by Massachusetts General Hospital for fighting to vanquish cancer.
In 2002, through the Kirsch Foundation, Steve and Michele helped to define and fund the Glaucoma Research Foundation’s first Catalyst for a Cure collaborative initiative to cure glaucoma.
“Steve Kirsch is a visionary,” Thomas M. Brunner, President, and CEO of Glaucoma Research Foundation said. “When most academic research was done in relative isolation, Kirsch could see the value of research scientists working in close collaboration to accelerate medical research to find treatments and cures for blinding diseases like glaucoma.”
“Steven and Michele received the first Catalyst Award in 2005 and 17 years later was again honored with the Visionary Award in recognition of their continued leadership and significant financial support for these successful initiatives to prevent blindness from glaucoma,” Brunner added.
When the COVID-19 pandemic stopped the world in its tracks, Kirsch knew he had to resort to research and science once again to find a solution. As hundreds of thousands were suffering and dying from COVID, Kirsch was funding studies to research effective cures using Fluvoxamine and other common repurposed drugs. Yet, he was perplexed. Despite the success of the initial and follow up Fluvoxamine studies Fluvoxamine was still not recognized and promoted by the NIH or CDC as an early treatment protocol. This readily available medication to prevent hospitalizations and save lives was ignored and suppressed like other early treatment solutions. Kirsch began to ask questions.
The rollout of the Covid-19 vaccines brought on even more questions.
“I used to believe that the FDA, NIH, and CDC were honest organizations,” says Kirsch. “I trusted them. I’m doubly-vaxed with Moderna as of March 29, 2021. A month later, I started hearing stories from my friends who reported relatives who died or they themselves became permanently disabled. So, I looked into it and the more I looked, the more appalled I became.”
Kirsch is someone who investigates a subject matter thoroughly before he embraces it. As he learned more and met people like Maddie de Garay, a 13-year-old injured during the Pfizer trial who can no longer walk as a result, he took action to mobilize and help people.
In 2021 Kirsch founded the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation, to bring experts together to study the safety and efficacy of the Covid-19 vaccine and to spread awareness on their findings. Amid this, he found his own party wasn’t willing to listen.
As a major Democratic party donor, Kirsch has contributed to local and national Democrats running for office for more than twenty years. In fact, he contributed to then Vice President Al Gore’s Florida Recount Fund during the 2000 presidential campaign that the Supreme Court ended.
“Over the years, I've given $20M to help Democrats win,” said Kirsch. “But they don't share any of my core values at all anymore. Is it time to jump ship or…?”
“Here are the things I believe in:
1. Freedom to speak the truth without censorship
2. Science
3. Facts
4. Medical freedom/choice
5. The Nuremberg Code / informed consent
6. Allowing the public to hold people accountable
7. Open discourse and debate to settle differences
8. Caring for those who the government has injured.”
“Facts don’t matter if they don’t fit the narrative,” said Kirsch.
“The fact is that there are hundreds of thousands of people that are vaccine injured in America today. But Facebook removed those groups, and any criticism of the vaccine is blacklisted by mainstream media. So, in the minds of Democrats, there is no problem.”
Kirsch has been targeted, smeared and de-platformed multiple times for his persistent criticism of the Covid-19 vaccine, Dr. Anthony Fauci and the government agencies that dictate the terms.
The experience of saving his own life from a rare blood cancer has only strengthened his resolve to save others, speak up for the voiceless and continue to shed light on the data from the COVID-19 vaccines.
