Time Text
We're on the next episode of Blood Money here.
I have Dr. Simon who is running for governor of Nevada over here to be interviewed today.
How are you doing Dr. Simon? I'm having a great day.
Thank you for having me today.
Thank you for coming. I've been following your campaign and I got to tell you it's very interesting to have a doctor with your level of experience involved in this governor's race.
Tell me what compelled you to run for office?
Well, it starts back when we started seeing people get sick.
Then we found out about this virus.
I gave up my practice and I went and volunteered in an understaffed ICU in Colorado where I saw despair and a fair amount of helplessness.
Not only patients, families, stories that we heard about, the staff as well.
And it was to a point that people didn't want to communicate and walk in the hallways much and elevators were taken in different stages where everything was just free and easy.
And after a period of time I realized that there was way more going on than this.
Then the information came out about the Pharmaceutical companies, information came out about a push for ventilators.
We had a difference in how the clinical situation looked and how we treated them.
And then all of a sudden, after about months, three to four, I recognized that there was a collusion between government, big pharma, and some underlying evil tone to this.
And I kept on going back to Colorado, coming back to Nevada, spoke with a lot of my friends.
We all felt like we needed to do something.
And I said, you know what? It's time for me to step up to the plate.
Multidisciplinary life experiences and a lot of expertise.
And I decided to run for governor to fix this state that has multiple problems that I have a lot of expertise in.
So this show is called Blood Money.
Out of your experience and what you're witnessing right now in our state and in our country, is there examples of blood money?
Well, I'd say there's two examples of blood money in this election cycle.
First and foremost, let's look at the biggest lobby group in the world, Biopharma.
The pharmaceutical companies spend lots of money to manipulate and corrupt politicians as well as bureaucrats in the government.
This whole process of what I would call something they say vaccine or a stick in the arm We're not fully sure what it all is.
There haven't been safety studies done.
We don't have a long enough history of these injections to find out really the effectiveness, let alone safety, and then complications that occur on a chronic basis.
We do know, though, no vaccine in this circumstance should be given to a child.
There's no scientific evidence Other than there's evidence that they want more money.
They got a lot of money from the government.
They got money from the government to give these vaccines.
The government and biopharma pushed vaccination of children with no scientific basis.
It's all pure profit.
It's evil. The complications and issues long term for children are completely unknown.
I would call that blood money.
Now in the cycle of politics, Which we're in right now, a cycle of elections.
There is a distinct blunt bunny called special interest money.
Let's take a look at one of the candidates in the governor's race.
Highly supported by developers' money.
Where does that money go?
Overdevelopment, decrease in equality of life, increased traffic, now necessity for more roads to be built, More industrial complex money.
So we're feeding an animal that never gets satiated.
It's all about big money.
Develop more.
We have not the appropriate infrastructure.
We haven't had a full-term water plan in this state ever.
We don't have a land plan in this state and we don't have an energy plan, but we continue to develop and develop and we spend more and more money.
We have a more crowded environment to live and a quality of life that has just gotten worse.
I don't find this as a thoughtful process of government when you have governmental officials taking blood money To spend on overdevelopment and a decrease in the quality of life and putting the state at risk as far as its infrastructure and all the quality that existed before all this started.
A lot of doctors have been silent on some of the issues that you talked about on a medical level.
Why? Again, it's blood money.
So approximately 65% Physicians now work for either the government, insurance companies, or the hospitals.
That is substantially higher than it existed 10 years ago and 20 years ago.
What has ended up happening with Obamacare and the bureaucratic interference of medicine, almost like Marxist principles, control, control, and control.
So what we have is government intervention control of hospitals and the medical profession.
And so how do we look at this from the standpoint of the cowardice of people not stepping up to the issues of vaccinations that aren't proven to be safe, medications that's not really well proven, such as the new Pfizer pill, Where do we go with this?
Well, we have to look at the physicians and know how they're trained, they're educated, and understand that their responsibility to the public is to the public, not to the hospitals, not to the government.
That's been lost.
Now physicians are controlled, threatened, they can lose their privileges, they can lose their practice, they can even lose their licensure, By ordering drugs such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, which have been on the market for decades,
safe, over 4 billion doses of ivermectin have been given, why would any entity, licensure bureau, board of medicine, hospital, censure or take away a physician's privileges for ordering repurposed drugs Which we've done for decades.
It's all about the big money of the new drugs that cost a hundred times what ivermectin costs.
In your career, you've seen some really serious things.
I was listening to a talk at a conference about a week back and you're talking about dealing with trauma patients, gunshot, you know, people with gunshot wounds, people involved in gang warfare.
Do you want to talk a little bit about your experiences in that world?
Sure, we have a society that's broken down in many ways.
So trauma is the window to all of America.
As a trauma surgeon, I take care of the most indigent, homeless.
I take care of gangsters, the young gangbangers out on the street who stab, beat up, shoot.
And when anybody comes to a trauma center, they're all treated the same.
We are not judgmental whatsoever.
We do our job.
I take care of people from automobile accidents, motorcycle accidents, the geriatric population with falls.
It's every economic group.
It's every culture.
When you get into what goes on with the violence, about 30% of my career has been about violence.
Geriatric violence, the elderly, spousal abuse, child abuse, and then gang warfare, and the violence that goes out on the street as far as just crime.
We have a serious problem in our country, and it transcends from decades of Improper social evaluation of things.
Culture breakdown.
The family breakdown.
So if we go back to what America was based on, it was based on the family, hard work, interaction, collaborative, living with other people.
And what has happened in a number of cultures There's been a breakdown of the family, there has been a breakdown in education across the country, and in Nevada we're 50th out of 50.
So we don't educate our children who go out and then connect with peer groups that have a lot of manipulation to it.
And then we have this violence.
And as a society over the last decade, we have minimalized the violence by having district attorneys who have removed bail.
We haven't done a proper job of judicial overview of certain crimes.
And so we've had a whole breakdown of the crime circumstance from enforcement, To the judicial aspect, and you see this every day in the trauma center.
Not only do I see new individuals who have been involved in crime, I see the repeaters, I see the chronic problems, and when we look at this from a society standpoint, not only is it very expensive, But it is also a real detriment to our culture.
You've seen the most traumatic and the darkest of the dark in this world.
I mean, what are you made of inside?
Well, I'll have to tell you it is true.
It's pretty dark at times, the way human beings treat each other over some of the most minuscule issues between humans and how it deteriorates to this lowest point of human civilization.
I've spent a long time over the years developing my skills.
I wasn't the doctor and the man I am when I first started to as I transcended and trended through my career.
It was a mental and emotional process In regards to just what I was doing, it was an educational process mentally on the other side.
First of all, you have to develop the background training, then the technical ability, but then you have to incorporate that with a mental frame of mind where you realize That you must be controlled in chaos.
And this is controlled chaos.
And as the leader of the controlled chaos, as the trauma surgeon, you have all technically your things that you're doing as well as other personnel around you.
And so you have to stay in Relatively control of your own emotions and mentation so that the team functions correctly to save anyone's life, whether it's a gangster or it's your next-door neighbor.
Our job is simply do the job.
Run the drill.
And keep the emotion to a minimum.
So what have I made of?
I am a self-contained, relentless, tough human being who recognizes that when I have a major trauma issue, I need to solve that as quickly as possible because the next one may be coming in within minutes.
And as a trauma surgeon in a major trauma center, you're on task for 24 hours at a time.
And you may not sleep one minute of those 24 hours.
So during your training, you learn to control your mind and you learn to control your emotion.
And we're a unique breed.
Trauma is a very, very unique specialty in medicine.
It's controlled chaos with instantaneous Response to issues.
You can't go run and look at a book.
You've got things happening instantaneously that you better know what you're doing.
You better know what the algorithm is to try and treat the problem.
And that doesn't mean we always know what we're doing, but we're pretty skilled mentally and we're pretty skilled emotionally.
Some of the things you've seen, I mean, when soldiers go out there and fight in wars and see people with gunshot wounds and all kinds of horrible injuries, a lot of them go through post-traumatic stress disorder.
Have you ever, you know, had such challenges?
And if not, you know, how do you detach yourself from some of the carnage you've been seeing?
Well, you know, the first and foremost, I will tell you, I have trained many military doctors to go into battle and take care of their fellow soldiers.
And they've gone to Iraq and they've gone to Afghanistan and I've also taught the medics, who have a lower level of education than doctors.
But we try to give them a level of expertise to understand What they need to do under the circumstances they're in.
So I would always tell everybody, I didn't shoot them.
I didn't stab them.
I'm not the one intoxicated driving into somebody or else into a tree.
I'm the one that fixes them.
So first and foremost, recognize who you are.
You're the medical professional taking care of the issue at hand.
You did not cause it, so you don't take on that burden.
You will see some pretty heinous crimes on human-on-human.
And you've got to retract yourself from that in the immediate acute period of time when the patient comes in.
Because you have to focus on the injuries.
You have to focus on what you need to do to help that patient and or save their life.
You can deal with that emotion at a later time.
So the bottom line is, is getting the perspective of who you are What your obligation is at the time you're taking care of these patients.
Pretty simple. You didn't cause the problem.
You're there to do it as best you can.
Fix the problem based upon getting educated, trained, and Providing yourself with a stability of mental and emotional calmness to focus.
But what are your top five strengths that would make you a very strong governor?
Well, I'm not a reactionary person because I've had such great experience at Controlled Chaos.
I always tell my children, look, you can react to something or you can recognize the issue and then take an action plan.
And so basically what you have to do is recognize an issue.
Then you've got to be thoughtful.
Then you've got to be a little academic, which is, what's the history of the problem?
There's always histories to problems.
What's the trend of the problem?
And how did we get to it where we're dealing with the problem right now?
Then you sit there and look at what are the solutions.
And then you have to look at what are the solutions and how does that affect the state, the community, and the citizens?
And how does it affect it economically?
Well, same thing happens in the trauma center.
You have economic issues, you have things that affect other people, and you have options of doing things.
So first and foremost, I think I would say I'm a reasonable leader.
I'm very prudent at what I do, but I'm very demanding.
I've been known to be demanding and I think when you're dealing with people's lives, I have a right as a leader to be demanding so that we optimize what we do.
In government, I see it the same way.
Taxes are the citizens' money.
We have an obligation to spend it wisely and in the best benefit of the citizens And the state overall.
But I really believe in local government more than anything else.
And that's just like I do in relationship to how we practice medicine.
Local physicians, independent physicians, then they come to the hospital and the hospital oversees a small modicum amount of the practice.
The state needs to allow local government to function well, fund local government, let citizens in the local area be determinate of what they want to do, school boards in local areas, how they deal with their own problems in relationship to development.
All of it should be at the local level.
And then what do you have?
You have a leader as a governor to try and Coordinate the entire state so that it's reasonably equitable and also works as far as state government.
The top five issues that you would most want to address in the first year, what would those be?
I think top five Problems are really out there and they're very dominant and everybody sees them.
Number one, let's look at education.
It's the foundation of any society.
We're 50th out of 50.
Money doesn't fix it.
We teach more ideology than we teach arithmetic, English, and all of that.
We need to get the ideology out of the schools.
We need to do remedial training of those kids who are behind, remedial training of teachers who are behind, And we need to focus on education.
We need to talk to the children.
What do they want?
We need to bring trades back.
What does the community need?
They don't need everybody to go to college.
Healthcare. 65% of physicians belong to hospitals.
We don't have independent physicians anymore.
There's a lack of physicians in places like Earrington, Fernley, Hawthorne.
We need to bring independent doctors back to communities.
Let communities have their own physicians.
Don't put them in systems where they're controlled.
We need more specialists.
We need more transparency of what the costs are.
We have a lot of overhaul to do in health care.
Voter ID with verified signature.
The basis of our republic is fair and honest voting.
We need to make voter day A holiday.
We've got Martin Luther King Day, we've got President's Day, and two days, Veterans Day and Memorial Day, for those who fought for this right.
If we make voting day a holiday, state holiday, no one has an excuse.
We don't need the mail-in ballots, we don't need the machines.
You go to the polls, you fill out your ballot, and we make sure it's honest and fair.
Republicans, Independents, and Democrats all want fair voting.
It's the fringe of certain parties that want to manipulate and cheat.
It has happened for decades.
It's not just the last election.
That must be done immediately.
And the last thing that we talked about, it's safety in our communities.
We need to use federal gun laws.
You go to prison for five years.
If you use a gun.
We need to get rid of the gangs by the RICO laws.
We need to bring in aggressive people who teach us how to decertify all these gangs that bring in lots and lots of drugs.
And we know that there's a cartel in Mexico that comes directly to Las Vegas.
And then the fifth thing I would say is we need to reconnect ourselves with our communities We need to work at getting the citizens more engaged and involved because there has been a lot of marginalization over the last decades that citizens are not important.
If we get more citizen involvement in the communities we can have more local government and I focus on local government but it has to be because people are involved and Americans need to realize that Families first, the community is second, and working together Makes everybody's life a better environment, better quality of life, and then they have to consider how much development they really want in their communities.
And I think our lives will be better and less stressed.
So those are the five things I see.
It sounds like you're a proponent of going more regional in terms of our thinking and in terms of how we structure things going forward.
Absolutely. Federal government is a failure.
Look at the waste of resources and the cost, inefficiency, and the bigger things are, the more potential for corruption.
Our federal government is very corrupt, has been.
They call it the swamp because it is the swamp.
I'm not the least bit interested in what goes on in Washington.
State government has corruption to it as well.
And what we need to do is focus on our state and work at the corruption at the state level.
But when you get down to local government, there's a lot more transparency.
And so that's why I go to regionalization.
If you put the money And the power in the hands of the local community will have less loss of money from corruption.
It'll never go away.
But what we have to do is get a better control on it by observing and having participation of all the citizens.
And yes, they'll make better decisions than the federal does and the state does.
The state responsibility is for the land, the environment, Energy policy, water policy, and an overall view of the economic success of the state.
But the things that we've talked about really need to be at the community level.
I'm going to tell you a little story and I kind of want you to help me dissect this and give me your opinion on it.
Have you heard of Jeff Younger by any chance?
I have not. Okay, so Jeff Younger is running for office in Texas and when his son was three years old, his mother wanted to transition him to female.
And so Jeff Younger and his mother had a divorce.
The family law courts gave full custody relatively quickly to the mother.
The father is completely cut off from the child's life.
The child is now nine years old and going through hormonal therapy because of a psychotherapist that was hired by the mother while leaving all other psychotherapists opinion because the child went through various psychotherapists.
They actually told a couple of them that he was fine being a boy But through this court system and this one psychotherapist, the judge said that the mother could transition the child at nine years old.
So Jeff Younger, a week ago, went to the University of North Texas to do a speech about how such transition should not happen before a child is an adult.
And there was 300 Antifa members there.
They attacked him.
They spat on him. They called him a deadbeat dad.
It was a very ugly scene.
While they were also, you know, drawing the old communist symbol.
I think it's like the sickle or whatever on the chalkboard.
Doing salutes, all kinds of communist salutes.
I know when you were growing up this sort of thing wasn't happening.
I mean, what's your opinion, thoughts about this story that I just said?
Well, let's look at this from the big picture down to the smaller picture.
First and foremost, I'm a faith-based constitutional conservative.
My faith leads me first and foremost.
I've been very fortunate to go to great universities and have the opportunity to have a significant background in a lot of different things.
One thing I understand more than anything else is common sense.
And so we're talking to a public that, for the foremost part, most people don't go to college.
Most people don't have the blessings of being able to go to medical school.
But we are all born the way we are anatomically and genetically.
So that's a fact.
Secondary, we are born into different families and different cultures.
Culture and parents should not change the natural eminence of life, which is if you're born as a male, you're a male.
If you're born as a female, you're a female.
When we look at transgender, it doesn't even touch 0.6% of the population, and that's probably an exaggeration.
One of the things that happens in society when you look at it on a sociologic standpoint is that if you keep repeating the same things over and over and over and over, people start believing things that aren't true.
This is ideology.
It's the classic basis of Marxism.
So the response you're telling me of Antifa is Marxism ideology.
It's like a bunch of sheep following a dog.
They don't think. When you look at this particular circumstance, it's a mother who has her own psychological emotional need to do something to a child.
That should be illegal.
That is immoral.
The child should be able to grow up and go through a process of maturation that is the normal process of life And then you address things as an adult.
No child should be getting hormonal therapy based upon somebody else's input of gender identity.
Now, if there's a specific disease, hormonal therapy would be appropriate, deemed that it's the right diagnosis and something that needs to be done.
If the story you tell me is correct, and this is commonly seen, There's outside influences to the normal process of a human being's maturation.
It can be peer pressure, it can be schools, and it can be parents.
That in my opinion is unethical and immoral.
The father was doing the right thing.
The mother had no business doing something to a three-year-old.
Even the medical profession I would take the stance they have no right ability and I would put it in law that they cannot attempt to change a child's sex by giving any type of drugs.
It makes no logical sense, makes no scientific sense, and makes no embryological sense in regards to that child's development.
This is logic.
Somebody hasn't even gone through puberty and trying to change that regardless of what your beliefs are about this sort of thing.
But how have we come this far where courts are allowing this sort of thing, judges are okay with this sort of thing, therapists are trying to push political agendas rather than do what is common sense?
I would be the one to tell you after being in 17 communities, which are towns and cities in Nevada, talking to all types of citizens, I think to a degree the fringe, radical groups have been in control of these issues based upon just pure uh organization and push
and some of it's evil and we as the other part of society haven't pushed back hard enough and what has happened over the last 10-15 years not only on school boards but as far as DA and judges the fringe people have been elected that will support the fringe ideology and if you look at this particular case This does not make any scientific,
common sense, intellectual sense taking three-year-olds and trying to manipulate who they are sexually Without having a full complement of developmental process go on.
Three-year-old will be different at 5, which will be different at 7, which will be different at 12, and we know that our brains not fully developed till 25.
So what people are doing is they're Connecting to their own emotional and peer pressure drive of really fringe behavior that we as a society have as allowed.
And we just need to stop it.
And I am a leader that's sitting here telling you that this type of behavior and circumstance, this is child abuse.
and this should not be allowed under the law and someone has to protect people where these fringe organized groups Try and change the continuum of life that's existed for years.
Go back. We didn't have this 40 years ago, 30 years ago, 20 years ago.
But what we have seen is a fringe level of America that has great control over us on a Visual standpoint, television, movies, and a preponderance of misinformation, and then they're taking it to this nth degree.
It's pretty evil. Are you hopeful of the future of this country?
I'm very hopeful.
And I'll tell you why.
Is what I just told you.
There are hundreds and thousands of people out there who have felt marginalized, who have not been engaged, If they want this country to be the country that has existed for the past two centuries, it's time for them to step up to the plate.
In the state of Nevada, they need to step up to the plate with me.
We need to stand against these things.
We need to do it intellectually, with good emotion, and we should do it with reasonable We don't have to get out to the fringe where they have been.
We attack this by being a group of people who say no to nonsense, no to evil, and we take control of our own state.
We do this by electing the right people We go out and find great candidates.
We do that at the school board level.
We do it at the assembly.
And when we got radical people in there, we basically don't let them gain control of the power.
We allow this to happen.
And we, the citizens, must stand up, find the right leaders and push against this.
Good always beats evil.
Always. But good has to be as organized as evil is.
Dr. Simon, in closing, is there anything you'd like to say?
Is there anything that we didn't touch upon that you'd like to speak about?
Well, as a human being myself, my power and glory comes from God.
And my direction in my life seems to be driven by the higher power.
And I think we all need to listen to our inner core and recognize we are all great because we've all been created with greatness.
We need to find that greatness.
We shouldn't be marginalized by other human beings and we should never think of ourselves secondary.
I'll tell you a little story.
One day I had a resident talking to me and I had just operated on a patient and there was a conversation about the patient being a particular culture and I basically said, oh, you're mistaken. See?
You go two millimeters into the skin and everybody's the same.
And I said, white, black, Native American Indian, Hispanic.
Once I go through two millimeters, the tissue beyond that all looks the same.
And I looked at that resident and I said, you were going there and you said something that I get from your bias of growing up.
And he looked at me and we had an understanding here.
We, as a society, pick really small negative things to drive a lot of what we do in life.
And if people think skin color means something, fine.
Look where it came from.
When we look at whether someone's beautiful or ugly, in whose eyes?
When we look at somebody and evaluate them from the content of their mental capacity, everybody has a great gift.
We as a society have become less and less tolerant of each other and more and more critical.
The final thing I would say is, look, Most of us have our own demons inside of us and everyone has their own fallibilities.
Maybe we focus on ourselves more and we come together more and we can do that in the state of Nevada and we can be the greatest state in the Union by helping each other and being more tolerant and understanding of each other's differences in how we grow up and differences in what we're given by God because everybody's special.
One last question that this brought up.
If there was a historic, you know, they say the past is precedent, right?
So if there was another time in history that we are currently seeing the repetition of right now, when would that be?
Well, that's a contemplative question that, you know, here I am, I'm going to use my trauma surgeon that I'm not going to react to.
I've got to get an action here.
And if I think about it, I think about it from a standpoint, if you go back historically, you look at all quote-unquote great societies, and I'm not sure they were great societies, because they weren't democratic and they weren't republics.
But societies that had stability, and I'll say that, stable societies all crumbled the same way from within, not from without.
And so that's what I'm seeing in the American society.
We have civil disobedience commonly.
We have anarchy.
Such as we saw in Portland and Seattle.
But it isn't interesting. It's turned on and it's turned off.
So it's manipulation.
It's not real.
It's a deterioration of society based upon What people are trying to do to disrupt this great country.
We need to look deeper, as I said before this question, into ourselves, our culture, and re-establish who we used to be, and we will be a better country, and hopefully we don't do what all these other great stable societies did, and that was disrupt and destroy themselves from inside.
Well thank you so much Dr.
Simon for coming down. I really appreciate it.
I was looking forward to interviewing you because you're a very intelligent person.
You've lived a lot of life.
You've seen a lot of things and I really appreciate you being available for this interview.
Really appreciate it.
