You may wonder what Ursula von der Leyen, management consulting company McKinsey and pharmaceutical giant Pfizer have in common. 

The answer is: Corruption. Utmost corruption. Madame Von der Leyen, the unelected President of the European Commission (“EC”) has several corruption scandals on her neck.  And von der Leyen, McKinsey and Pfizer are in bed with each other.

Von der Leyen is not the only corrupt official in the EC.  It just so happens that Christine Lagarde, the President of the European Central Bank, has a criminal record.

Utmost European Corruption: Madame Von der Leyen – McKinsey and Pfizer

By Peter Koenig as published by Global Research on 18 October 2024 (first published on 23 April 2023)

It was recently revealed that Madame von der Leyen’s son, David, had a “summer intern” stint at McKinsey, the giant US-based management consulting firm. Though records of David’s responsibilities with McKinsey are purposefully flimsy, it appears that his employment was much more than a “summer intern.” He had consulting teams under his responsibilities and worked for McKinsey for more than 3 years.

Is it a coincidence that he left McKinsey in 2019, just before his mom was appointed – not elected – President of the European Commission?

We know there are no coincidences.

Was David perhaps paving the way for the future EC President’s – his mother – easy access to McKinsey’s higher management ranks?

More about that later.

Pfizer Scandal

Let’s start with a scandal already fairly well known among informed sources: Ursula Von der Leyen’s direct negotiations with Pfizer for purchasing 900 million Pfizer vaccine doses, with the option of another 900 million, a total of 1.8 billion doses.

Repeat, in case you think you misread: 1.8 billion of the maligned Pfizer mRNA gene modifying injection doses – yes, for a population of some 450 million. This would amount to 4 doses per person of the European Union (“EU”).

These “negotiations” went on in 2021 as exchanges of texts were discovered between von der Leyen and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla. Pressure on the EC to release the texts was simply ignored.

This has happened preceding the signing of the 1.8 billion doses contract. It is clearly an infraction against EU rules of competition, i.e., competitive bidding. The contracts were signed in May 2021. Totally against EU international competitive bidding rules.  Aside from that, how were 4 doses per EU citizen justified?  What is the total price of this insane package?

Ursula von der Leyen: “Mrs. 4.5 Billion Doses”

In recent developments, Van Der Leyen is involved in negotiating another big contract with Pfizer:

The price of each vaccine dose has been negotiated directly with the President of the EU Commission, Ursula von Der Leyen, who is known to be corrupt. 

The broader objective of Pfizer’s CEO Dr. Bourla is to negotiate a 4.5 billion vaccine doses contract for an EU population of 450 million, In other words, 10 doses per person. These are additional doses to those already purchased by the EU (In excess of 800 million).

Madame Von der Leyen’s close ‘’collaboration’’ with Pfizer may be just the tip of the iceberg.

Her husband Heiko is the medical director of Orgenesis, a US Biotech company specialising in gene therapies such as Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

Ursula has been on Orgenesis’ scientific council since 2019. Pfizer and Orgenesis have a very close relationship since Orgenesis was actively involved in the development of the Pfizer vaccine. Heiko von der Leyen has a long relationship with Pfizer. See THIS for more details.

Back to the “vaccines.” What will happen with the billions of superfluous useless and dangerous injections?

The way the Pharma-EU corruption seems to play out, it wouldn’t be surprising if the injections would be relabelled for another purpose. How would anybody know? 

After all, over the last three years, with the implementation of the World Economic Forum’s (“WEF’s”) Great Reset and the United Nations (“UN”) Agenda 2030 – which are basically identical, as the UN is in bed with the WEF – it has become abundantly clear that vaccination has nothing to do with health or preserving people’s health but rather with large-scale genocide.

One of the key objectives of the Great Reset and Agenda 2030 is a massive population reduction. What we can see so far, after barely over two years of so-called vaccination, most of it coerced injections, hundreds of thousands, if not millions of deaths and people maimed for life, as well as rapidly increasing miscarriages, as well as infertility of both women and men.

And this is only the beginning. The bulk of the crime may play out within the coming 5 to 10 years when nobody will be able to prove the cause being the covid injections. These are the warning words of Michael Yeadon, former VP and Chief Science Officer at Pfizer. See THIS.

Was the European Public Prosecutor’s Office investigating von der Leyen’s criminal case? Nobody knows. Imagine nobody knows and nobody asks!

Politico reports, in April 2021, von der Leyen told The New York Times that she had traded texts with the Pfizer CEO for a month in the run-up to the EU signing its contract with the US pharmaceutical giant.

In the deal, the Commission committed to buy 900 million Pfizer-BioNTech injections on behalf of EU members, with an option to purchase another 900 million. This or these contracts must be worth hundreds of millions, if not in the billions of dollars. The figure has never been officially disclosed and EU watchdogs close their eyes to the scandal.

That in itself is a horrendous disgrace.

Later, the EU Ombudsman revealed that the Commission had never explicitly asked von der Leyen’s team to look for the texts, since it didn’t consider them “documents” that merited preservation. In a report on its findings, the ombudsman simply called the approach “maladministration.”

For its part, the European Commission countered that it can’t provide the texts because “short-lived, ephemeral documents are not kept.”  See THIS.

End of the story for now. But lest you tend to forget, the European Union, especially the non-elected EC, is one of the world’s most corrupt institutions. And, so far, it seems to be getting away with it.

McKinsey Scandals

Back to McKinsey. The McKinsey consulting firm is full of scandals of its own. The firm’s work for both authoritarian governments and the Pentagon raises questions about conflicts of interest.

When in the early 21^st century the “dot.com” bubble crash destroyed many corporations and with them also the potential for management consulting, McKinsey was faced with a dilemma. They needed to find ways to enlarge their client pool. So, McKinsey started competing for government contracts not just within the United States, but worldwide.

The New York Times reports that McKinsey’s decision to venture into the public sector at home and abroad created a business model rife with conflicts of interest.

A US domestic example is well-known. McKinsey was advising the Federal Drug Administration (“FDA”) while also advising pharmaceutical giant Purdue Pharma. Internationally, McKinsey’s work at times appears equally extensive with potential conflicts of interest, courting state clients as diverse as the Pentagon, China and Saudi Arabia.

While McKinsey took up hundreds of millions of dollars in US defence contracts, it also advised a cadre of foreign companies and governments. McKinsey’s own website boasts about these connections: “We have long-standing relationships with ministries and departments of defence worldwide.”

In another, by now well-known case, global consulting firm McKinsey faces criminal charges for corruption in South Africa. The case centres on McKinsey’s role in the country’s biggest post-apartheid scandal, known as the “state capture scandal” under former president Jacob Zuma. It involved the misappropriation of public funds on a vast scale, as reported in February 2023, see THIS.

That says it all. The key is international high-level government connections. It may never be proven, but a profound suspicion prevails, that Heiko and Ursula von der Leyen’s son, David, may have had a role in preparing the way for McKinsey to buy off governments around the globe to go along with the tremendous and deadly covid injection fraud.

See ‘The McKinsey consulting scandal you might not have heard about’ for full details.

Von der Leyen and the World Economic Forum

The question Europeans, not the corrupt governments, but We, the People, have to ask ourselves is: How long do we continue tolerating Ursula von der Leyen’s Presidency of the EC?

Of course, Ursula von der Leyen is a darling of Klaus Schwab, WEF’s CEO. At the behest of his corrupt financiers, he put her in this position. She is not only a scholar of the WEF’s Young Global Leaders (“YGL”) academy, but she is also on the WEF’s Board of Trustees.

That protection may be waning, though, as the WEF’s standing in the world is quietly gliding away. Just think of the January 2023 WEF disaster in Davos. See this.

Europe’s Central Bank

Or, an even better question, how long do Europeans tolerate the current ultra-corrupt EC / EU setup? The time to demolish the EU to go back to nation states and local currencies is long overdue. It would be a tremendous boost for the European economy and the European people’s wellbeing.

The longer We, the People, wait, the more difficult it will become to step out of the financial prison matrix.

See THIS from Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank (“ECB”). She promises prison if you spend a thousand euros in cash.

Ironically, Lagarde who runs the ECB on behalf of powerful financial interests has a criminal record.

How much longer until we wake up?
