Harrison Smith is the host of American Journal from 8:00am to 11:00am Monday through Friday. You'll have to use duckduckgo.com to find it because if I link it here the video will be censored and if you search it on Google it's likely nothing will come up.
Here's the description of American Journal:

In this episode we discuss The Great Reset and other issues facing America today.
Hey, this is One American Podcast live with Harrison Hill Smith of Infowars.com.
Infowars.com, band.video.
Thank you so much for having me on.
Absolutely, man.
Thanks for coming on and hanging out.
It's really an honor and a pleasure to be with you.
My wife and I watch InfoWars on our Roku.
We figured out that you guys stream on Roku and we started watching it.
And, you know, we had a baby this year.
And for the longest time, I swear to God, the only thing that would make our baby fall asleep was Alex Jones's voice.
It's a very soothing baritone.
I get it.
I get it.
Although I tend to get fired up when I listen to him, you know, to each his own.
It's a great lullaby.
I know, right?
Me too.
He's like, we always say that we wish that he was the grandpa that our daughter Kennedy never had.
Oh, man.
I mean, Alex Jones is everybody's badass uncle, or at least you'd want him to be, right?
Yeah.
Goes out, shoots guns with you, goes hunting with you, tells you about how the world really works.
And we love your show.
Your segment's great too.
We call you the Jeffrey Dahmer guy.
Yeah, yeah, the glasses.
Well, you know, everybody says Jeffrey Dahmer.
I mean, maybe there's other stuff that looks like him.
Some other people say, I'm blinking on his name, but the guy from Waco, right?
The thing is, everybody had these glasses.
Yeah, yeah, David Koresh.
That's the other one I get.
But everybody in the 80s had these glasses.
Absolutely.
They made one style of glasses from 1981.
One serial killer has to ruin it for everybody.
Yeah, all of a sudden it's the serial killer glasses.
But look, hey, what are you going to say?
You look great, man.
You look great.
And I loved the recent video that just went viral that you made.
I thought that was absolutely hysterical.
Oh, thank you very much.
Yeah, it's really blown up.
Gotten a lot of great response, which is good.
Humor, you know, I think that's what our side has been missing for a little while.
Yeah, yeah.
It used to be a lot of people.
I mean, there's a lot of good people, not to say.
Oh, of course, of course.
But it used to be that all the artists and the comedians were just sort of on the left and it was just something that you just knew.
And then now I think it's kind of, they've become the left has become the no-fun side of things.
It's weird how that switch happened kind of overnight.
Yeah, they're so they're just unbelievably lame now.
And there's so many talented people on the right from Tim Dillon to Ryan Long to JP something.
I can never remember.
JP Sears.
JP Sears.
Yeah, yeah.
He's he's really good too.
So there's, it's like there's a plethora of conservative info or conservative comedy out there now because it's not in the system.
It's just people on their own making stuff.
So it's fantastic.
Yeah.
So how did you get, how did you get involved with InfoWars, man?
I got involved with InfoWars as a cameraman and editor originally.
So I quite literally just responded to a Craigslist ad and it was somewhat serendipitous.
I sort of knew it was InfoWars when I applied, but I wasn't totally sure.
But I just started working for them as cameraman and editor and just started making reports on my own.
And they're pretty open.
As long as you get, you know, what you're supposed to do done, you can work on whatever you want.
So I just started working on reports and nobody ever stopped me.
So now I have my own show, which is fantastic and very fun.
That's been awesome.
That must be a wild experience for you just to go from being behind the camera to being on camera.
It really has been a crazy because, you know, so often with Alex Jones, when he does something, and unfortunately, it's been less now because of not just the coronavirus and everything, but we used to travel a lot more and we used to do a lot of stuff.
And it was always very fun, like being just on the edge of like national headlines.
You know, it would be Alex Jones doing something and I'm just off screen filming him doing that thing.
So it was very fun getting to like be his cameraman or getting to be, you know, own Schroyer's cameraman and going around and filming stuff.
Because yeah, even if I am not on the screen, it's like, yeah, that video we just made got 10 million views or whatever.
And man, it was, it was very fun at the beginning when we were able to go live on YouTube and had a YouTube account and Twitter account.
So I was there for a couple of years when that was the case and it was absolutely fantastic.
And now it's still great because we still have band.video and all that stuff, but it was it was different back when I was behind the camera.
It was, we were, we were allowed on those things.
Yeah, I remember I watched I watched Alex Jones at his first appearance on Andrew Schultz when he did the when he did the Andrew Schultz podcast.
Yeah.
I think it's called Flagrant 2.
I think that's what the name of his podcast is.
And I remember Andrew asked him, you know, have you noticed a spike in your numbers since you've been banned from YouTube?
And Alex was just like, no.
It was just like a really funny moment.
When that happened, I remember it vividly when that happened.
And everybody said, you know, it's just Alex Jones.
It's just going to happen to Alex Jones.
He's crazy.
It's just going to happen to him.
And now we see it happening to like every small conservative account.
And it's apparent that it's not just going after the conspiracy theorists.
And I'm an Alex Jones fan.
So don't get me wrong.
I'm not trying to put him in a category of like crazy conspiracy theorists because I love his podcast.
I do not think of the term conspiracy theorist as a prerogative or a, you know, derogatory.
Right, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, I agree.
But everyone thought it was going to, everyone said it was going to stop there.
And it's only gotten worse and worse and worse.
They're banning senators and congress people now.
I mean, it's gotten very bad, very, very bad.
And, you know, we also don't, like on Bandai Video, we actually still get a ton of views.
Like it's really amazing how well some of our videos can do, especially in the sense that we, I don't even know if I'm supposed to talk about this, but the way that we count views is much more accurate than the way that YouTube or Twitter or anybody else counts views.
They do a certain thing where if you watch a couple minutes, then it counts as a view.
So one view of a video will actually be counted like four or five, 10 times sometimes.
It's very strange.
And we don't do that at all.
It's like you have to watch like more than half our video and that'll count as a view.
So we actually still have a lot of views there.
But man, when we used to be on YouTube, it was just like upload and you just watch the numbers go up, watch the comments come in.
It was very fun to like interact with the community.
That's like what it was all about, which is why they kicked us off, right?
It's not for, it's not for false information, right?
You know, the ancient aliens is still on the history channel.
It's not about what's true or what's false.
It's about disrupting social movements, of which InfoWars was one of the most powerful.
And they've unsuccessfully derailed it.
They've just sort of knocked it off course for a bit.
Yeah.
And when I watch, you know, Alex, Alex and Owen, they both talk about a lot of the attacks that you guys are facing constantly.
It hasn't really ended with just being banned from the mainstream platforms.
You guys still face a lot of issues.
Is it hard for you guys to find banking, for example?
What's going on?
What's the future look like for InfoWars?
Man, I'm as far as you're able to speak.
Well, you know, well, I'll talk about whatever I know, but I'm somewhat blitzfully ignorant about that side of the business just because, I mean, Alex is running around like a chicken with his head cut off half the time, just dealing with everything.
I mean, he runs the store, he runs the, and then the legal lawsuits and going against it.
So I basically know as much as anybody else that watches Alex Jones' show because that's where I get that information.
There's not a lot of like behind the scenes stuff because we're just worried about getting a show out, making it look good, getting the information right, getting good guests.
Like that's what we focus on and that's what we do.
So I know as much as literally anybody else.
And it's always an edge of the knife sort of thing because it's a massive company.
The equipment that we use is top of the line, very expensive.
The bandwidth that we use, we have to pay for all of it since we built our own infrastructure from the ground up.
We can't rely on Google or YouTube to support all that stuff, which is an immense amount of money.
I mean, it's shocking how much money it costs just to put out video constantly hosting on your own servers.
So, you know, it's a machine that's rolling and it's got to keep going.
And so thank God the Infowars audience is literally the best audience in the entire world.
I know I use the word literally too much, but this is one case where it's warranted.
They are the most like fanatic and genuinely so.
You know, they understand it.
They get it.
They have been watching Alex for as long as I've been watching him, right?
15, 20 years.
And maybe I haven't watched him that long, but a lot of our listeners have.
And they really support the hell out of him.
And it goes right back into the business.
And so they've kept us afloat this whole time.
It wouldn't have been possible without Alex seeing what was coming ahead and building the InfoWars store and then the InfoWars audience keeping us alive.
We don't get big checks from billionaires.
So it's entirely, you know, if we aren't doing what we need to be doing for the audience, they won't support us and we'll go away.
So that's what I'm concerned with on a daily basis.
Sure.
Well, my wife and I, we fall into that category.
We bought $1,000 worth of food during the freeze last year in Austin because we live in Austin too, just like you.
And it was scary to not be able to leave the house and not have power.
And so, yeah, we were watching InfoWars and we bought the buckets full of food that lasts 25 years.
You know, and the mac and cheese isn't that bad.
Let me tell you.
It's really good.
It's really good.
I did a taste test commercial for it.
And I legitimately thought the mac and cheese that comes in the stuff is actually fantastic.
It's like college cafeteria quality, I would say, like a good college cafeteria quality, which isn't bad.
I didn't go to college, but it's much better than nothing.
Let's just say that, right?
And yeah, because I was in the freeze too, and I was literally getting texts from people.
I always tell the story, but texts that were just like, hey, man, you know where I can get some food and water?
It's like, this isn't, yeah, pretty much just being like, look, there's a jack in the box open on 7th Street.
Like it was, it was crazy, man.
And, you know, it could be 10 years until you actually need the food, but when you actually need it, it's damn good to have it or else you are literally going to grocery stores and all of the shelves are empty and the trucks can't get in.
And then that storable food doesn't look like such a risky purchase anymore.
Yeah.
So how long have you been, have you personally been on air on Bandai Video?
We are, well, on air in general, several years, just because I'd always fill in for hosts or I'd do reports and that sort of stuff.
American Journal is my show, 8 to 11, 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Central time zone, each and every weekday, Monday through Friday.
And it's live.
It's a live broadcast.
I've been doing that for a little over a year.
I thought I started in January last year, but we looked back and it actually started in December.
So what do I know?
Wow.
So, yeah.
So, how hard is it to go live for three hours straight?
Was it hard at first?
It kind of, not really, honestly.
Sort of just for me, resetting my clock, I basically wake up now when I used to fall asleep, right?
I used to love staying up all night and I'd work till four in the morning and fall asleep.
Now I'm having to wake up at four in the morning.
That was a bit of a shift for me that I one year in and still not really all that used to.
And every weekend, I blow, I'd stay up all night and throw myself off.
But that was a bit of a struggle.
But three hours is never enough, man.
With the amount of news that comes out on a daily basis, I have a hundred stories that each could, I could spend an hour on digging into who's involved, what they're up to.
So it's really not a struggle.
Plus, I do a call-in show.
So we take a lot of calls.
That makes it very easy for me because we have fantastic callers that just, you know, start talking.
And for four or five minutes, it's just like we get to the commercial break.
And I'm like, I'm sorry, I have to cut you off, but that was amazing, you know?
So, so I didn't, I, you know, it's, it's really one, it's the easiest job in the world, man.
I just, I just talk for three hours and then I have a crew that does everything behind the scenes.
So it's, it's really fantastic, actually.
Man, I'm happy for you.
That's got to be an awesome experience.
The longest I ever streamed.
And I sent you a link.
I don't know if you had a chance to take a look, but on January 20, I did Let's Go Brandon for seven and a half hours over and over.
You sent me that video and I didn't look at the title before I clicked on it.
And I was doing something else.
So I just clicked on it and I said it to the side and I was like, oh, this is a funny intro.
He's going to keep saying it.
And like, I just, I was just doing other stuff.
And like, Jimmy Claire, I'm like, he's still, no way.
There's no way.
And then, of course, so you did it for like seven and a half.
I admit I didn't watch the whole thing.
I'm sorry I didn't watch it.
Nobody did.
I mean, I hope not anyway.
Yeah, seven hours and 28 minutes.
It is a world record, I'm sure.
I don't know if Guinness is going to recognize it.
I mean, I just came up with the idea.
I don't think anyone's even attempted it, but I've said let's go Brandon over 25,000 times.
I think that means it's a world record.
And I think I will sign the petition to get you in the Guinness Brooklyn Records.
You know, you are worthy of the esteem of being in that great book.
It was a wild experience, man.
But to go three hours straight every single day, there's an art to that.
And, you know, Alex is the master of it.
You do a great job of it.
But just the amount of the amount of knowledge.
And I started, like I said earlier, I started doing this podcast back in May.
And I really started getting serious about my Twitter at that time just because I was using Twitter as a primary tool to get guests on the show, just like I got you on the show.
And my awareness with current events in politics is like 10 notches better than it ever was before.
And that's really all it takes is if you know what's going on and like little stuff like the names of people, like who is the director of the CDC, right?
Or just the little stuff that you like when you're a kid, you like have no idea what's going on, but you start to learn these things.
And the more knowledge you have, the easier it is to just go and go and go.
I mean, it's easy enough to do a three-hour rant on the Supreme Court ruling the other day.
Everybody's celebrating it, but at the same time, it's like, well, everybody has rights except for healthcare workers.
That doesn't seem to really make sense.
So it's like you don't know whether to celebrate or scream, you know?
Yeah.
Well, and of course, then you have Joe Biden because it's what I always say.
I mean, I don't know what it is, but there's got to be some mechanism for punishing the attempt to exceed constitutional authority.
Because what happened was as soon as the Supreme Court decided, Joe Biden goes out and is just like, well, we missed the target this time, but we'll get him next time.
And it's just like, no, you don't just get to keep rewording things until your tyranny passes muster.
Like that's not how this is supposed to work.
But yeah, again, we could go off on a three-hour tangent on that.
Well, and I'm with you.
And the thing that's so bothersome to me about this particular Supreme Court ruling and the mandates is other than the fact that they were just blatantly tyrannical, okay, is that if you look at footage of Saki, Kamala, Biden from during the campaign, they acknowledged that they knew mandates were impossible and illegal at the federal level.
They were saying this.
And so what that implies, really beyond reasonable doubt in my mind, is that they passed the mandates.
They forced the mandates knowing that they were illegal, knowing that by the time the Supreme Court ruled on the legality of them, it would be too late and the damage would already be done.
And that's exactly what happened.
So the fact that they knew they were illegal and didn't just disagree or think that they were illegal and they were wrong, like, you know, past rulings have been, Supreme Court rulings have been, the fact that they knew that it was illegal and they pushed it anyway, to me seems like grounds for impeachment.
And I don't like to throw that word around because I hated it when the left did so much for Trump, but it really, really seems like a gross overreach and abuse of power.
Look, you know, these two impeachments would not be made of the same caliber, right?
They had nothing on Trump.
The stuff that Joe Biden has already gotten away with doing or, you know, lying about or falsifying, I mean, it's pretty outrageous.
I mean, the latest one, of course, was him saying like, here's a call from the president of the United States to big tech companies, social media companies, and news companies to get this type of, you know, get the information that contradicts me off your airwaves.
I mean, that's an obvious violation of strictures within the government, within the Constitution.
But also it's reflective of the great reset, which is rule by corporation, really.
So even if the Supreme Court, even if they couldn't do it through OSHA or couldn't do it through some sort of governmental apparatus, they put the thought out there and they have their corporate stoolies do it for them.
So this is how we'll be operating from now on, right?
Who you vote for won't matter.
Who's on the Supreme Court won't really matter.
What the corporations and the politicians decide in their secret conclaves, that will be how things go.
And what you have to say about it makes you a domestic terrorist, actually, if you disagree.
It's actually incredibly troubling where we're going.
And, you know, I think the Supreme Court, I mean, the big story, the big headline from the Supreme Court, forget how they decided, the misinformation they were working off of, the complete lies they were going off of.
100,000 children on ventilators.
Absurd.
Completely baseless and absurd, right?
But sort of planted in her mind by the mainstream media.
So these are three of the arms of the apparatus, right?
Of the octopus currently strangling the face of humanity is the media and the corporate corporatocracy, the corporate world, and then the political world.
And they're all just operating on the same timeline and the same narrative in cooperation with each other, in coordination with each other, using the information from the media one to justify the political actions of the political one, which is then translated to the corporate one.
Do they support the certain politicians that the media tells them to?
It's just one big, disgusting spider's nest that Joe Biden is the decrepit corpse on top of, I guess, is the big spider.
Yeah, I'm with you.
And what it really boils down to is that the government has outsourced the violation of your rights, namely your First Amendment rights to big tech and other corporations.
And they can't do it.
They can't silence you themselves.
And so they apply pressure to these corporations by things like what we just saw with Biden's speech.
That is a very subversive threat.
And frankly, it's a dog whistle.
And anybody on the board or in leadership positions at these major companies understand that if they don't comply with those sort of demands, as subtle as they are, they're going to face things like antitrust litigation or antitrust legislation from people like Elizabeth Warren.
These politicians openly call out specific businesses in their messaging.
And it's like, it's threatening.
And so the fact that we live in a society where our politicians can threat specific businesses, threaten specific businesses, implies to me that these businesses aren't really private businesses.
I mean, this is exactly what fascism is, right?
When government and corporations work together.
And if the government's actually pulling the strings on what these major corporations do or do not do, then how can you say they're private?
And how can you say that they don't have to observe or respect our rights as they're protected in the Constitution, namely the Bill of Rights?
I'll tell you, I'm hurting my neck from nodding so much.
I mean, it's exactly right.
And I keep calling the great reset the great cooperation, right?
Because that's all this is.
Because in a way, you're almost thinking of it in an old school sort of way where the government is sort of pressuring these companies, but we know that the companies don't need pressure.
So what the government is doing is either giving them the casus belli, right?
Or the justification for doing what they're already going to do or giving them the cover to say, hey, if you do this and you get sued, the message is going out to the legal system or the Department of Justice that actually this is our policy.
This is how we're going to move forward.
So it's almost like I would love if the big tech companies were like, we don't want to censor anybody.
And the government was like, oh, but I'm going to put pressure on you.
And they were being forced to do that.
Then at least you'd have one side of the equation was on the side of freedom.
But unfortunately, they're both on the same side, which is of censorship and segregation and diminishing their enemies by eliminating their voices from the public square.
And they're both like, yeah, totally, we're both in favor of that.
We're both going to do that.
We'll both share messaging.
I mean, the best example would be the fact that it was just revealed that the Secretary of Education was the one that asked the school board to write the letter to the Justice Department to call the protesting parents terrorists, basically, right?
So the government wants to do something, but it can't just do it or everybody's going to be mad.
So they just go out to their partners in the non-government organization sphere or in the corporate sphere and they go, hey, ask us to do this.
And that'll give us the justification to do it.
And so they're playing it both ways, right?
Ask us to do this and then we'll send the FBI to go kick down the doors of concerned mothers.
Or, hey, encourage us to do this.
And then when we censor people, we can say, hey, we're just going along with what our government is asking us to do.
It's soft power.
And man, is it deep-seated?
Yeah, that's a really good, that's a really interesting perspective and a really good point.
I was relieved, just to add a shred of optimism, I was relieved to see that General Electric Electric revoked the vaccine mandates today.
So we do have some businesses that push back.
I think some of them have to, man.
I think some of the hospitals are being forced to because they're so short-staffed.
I think, you know, it's, I don't know.
It's because I have other people, you know, people DMing me or people calling into my show saying, hey, I work for this big bank and they're forcing vaccine mandates anyway.
So I don't know how effective the Supreme Court ruling will even be in the long run if the corporations decide they're above American law, which is the ultimate goal of this whole great reset.
Yeah.
So tell me a little bit about the great reset because I'm not intimately familiar with it.
I know that Klaus Schwab is sort of depicted as this like evil mastermind at the top of it.
I know there was a great reset report and I know about the famous line, you know, you'll have, you'll own nothing and you'll be happy.
So I'm familiar with that, but I'm less entrenched in the like overarching conspiracy of the great reset.
What's the scoop, man?
Come on, tinfoil hat on here.
Is that cool?
No, no, it's not a conspiracy theory at all.
It's actually a conspiracy fact.
They're quite open about it.
Klaus Schwab wrote a book called The Great Reset where he lays this out.
But Klaus Schwab has been a, I like call them world controllers.
That was the, that was what they were called in Brave New World, right?
These people that ran the world and knew all the stuff that was hidden from the people underneath.
Like that's essentially what we have.
Unelected billionaires, either they made their money through hook or crook or through, you know, family largesse.
But regardless, you have this guy, Klaus Schwab, who is the head of the Davos group and head of the World Economic Forum.
And remember, the Davos group and the Bilderberg group used to be these secret conclaves of royalty and nobility and corporate masters and banksters and economic masters.
And they would get together and basically plan for the next year.
Here's what we're going to do.
Here's how things are going to progress.
Here's how we're going to manipulate things.
And people noticed this and called them out and they said it doesn't exist.
It's not happening.
Are you a conspiracy theorist?
All these world leaders meeting in secret.
Why would we ever do that?
We're open democracies.
Then, of course, through the works of people like Alex Jones and others, it was revealed, okay, they actually are meeting every year.
And there's a couple of them, the Davos, the Bilderberg, and a few others.
And so now they're like, yeah, we are meeting in secret, but now it's not secret anymore.
Now we're telling you what we're doing and we're actually advertising it because we're getting together in conclaves and discussing in secret and setting priorities for the next year for you, for your benefit, because we're good people.
That's the strategy they're going with now.
And so he, Klaus Schwab, has been head of the World Economic Forum, head of the Davos group.
And the World Economic Forum is this one.
And you can call it Agenda.
It was originally agenda 20, wait, Agenda 20, Agenda 2030 from the U. Agenda 21.
It was originally Agenda 21.
Then it became Agenda 2030.
So again, the UN, the World Economic Forum, these are international globalist think tanks that come up with this stuff and put it in, put the plans into place and then operate on the plans.
And so they basically influence almost anybody who's anybody at any point, right?
It's been revealed that, you know, I think the Dutch prime minister posted his letter from the World Economic Forum.
So essentially, what their plan is, I mean, you can get way down the line, but what they want to do now and what they're implementing now is what they call stakeholder capitalism.
So instead of shareholder capitalism, where you're trying to make the most money with your business, now the most important thing for your business is to serve certain social and economic and environmental goals.
So they have the ESG score, and this is like the social credit score for corporations.
And that's how corporations will be graded now, not by how much money they make, but by how much they provide to the service of the greater narrative.
ESG is environmental, social, and governance scores.
And so these are things like racial quotas for the governance of your company, as well as how much you give to climate change operations and how many rainbows you put on your commercials.
Like literally, it's like the more rainbows you put, the more money that the banks will send to you.
It's a very, very sick system.
And Klaus Schwab's at the head of this, and he's sort of the one that coined it.
And you can look another one of his lackeys, like his underdog is not underdog, but like right-hand man, is Mark Binioff, who created Salesforce, right?
And one thing that Salesforce did, they had massive operations in, I believe it was Idaho.
Idaho wanted to pass a law where they, I think it was something like they were not banning conversion therapy, something like that.
It was something that having to do with homosexuality, but it was a very sort of tame law.
It wasn't anything extreme or anything.
But Salesforce said the Idaho people voted on this.
The Idaho legislative voted on this.
They passed it, but Salesforce doesn't want it.
So Salesforce will withdraw this billion-dollar industry from your state unless you veto this bill and the governor vetoed the bill.
So that's what stakeholder activism basically is, or corporate activism, where they flex their corporate might.
And of course, we saw this with stakeholder fascism, basically.
It is quite literally fascism, right?
Because these are the same companies where they're boycotting the MLB game in Georgia over voter rights, their racist voter rights, while simultaneously lobbying to continue to do trade with the Uyghurs in China with no oversight with the slave camps.
So they don't exactly have your best interest in mind, but they will use your largesse, your capitalist system to manipulate you to their will.
And that's what the Grace Reset essentially represents.
Remember the TPP, the gold standard of trade agreements that Trump luckily got us out of.
One of the main contentions of that was that you would have a corporate court system that would decide cases that would be superior to national courts.
So these corporations could sue other corporations in an international court that superseded rulings of the national court.
And that's sort of the ultimate goal is a globalist, unelected, technocratic government over all of the national governments and then actually can manipulate and use the national governments to their will.
Back to Mark Benioff.
So he used Salesforce to do this in Idaho.
And he also owns Time Magazine.
Time Magazine came out with a big spread about the Great Reset, telling you how wonderful it was.
They'll also tell you it's a conspiracy theory and not to look into it.
So you can take that for what it is.
And they admitted to manipulating the election in 2022.
And it was also Time Magazine.
Right, exactly.
And I'm sure they have some man is woman of the year.
I mean, they're all in, right?
And it's because they're philanthropists.
They love philanthropy.
And so Mark Benioff will donate millions of dollars to a hospital.
And what do you know?
Two months later, the hospital has a brand new clinic for transgender children.
Isn't that wonderful?
Don't you love their philanthropy that they offer you as they chemically castrate your children?
It's very sick stuff, but it's all very well coordinated.
It's all very well.
It's all open and public now in the most bizarre way, right?
On one page, it's the Great Reset is wonderful.
It's here.
You'll eat bugs.
You'll live in a pod.
You won't own anything.
And the other side is the Great Reset is conspiracy theory.
Don't look into it.
Ignore it.
Don't pay attention to it.
So again, I can go on and on about it, but if you just, the best thing to do, if you want to start finding conspiracy theories, just go to Wikipedia and start clicking on names.
That's what that's all you got to do.
Just click Klaus Schwab and just start clicking his friends.
You know, go to Mark Benioff and just see what he's up to and start clicking around his family and his friends and who he's hanging out with.
And it all starts to come together very, very simply.
I need to make a point to read his book too.
And, you know, when you were talking, it reminds me a lot of some of the advantages that major governments see in implementing digital currency, right?
So one of the main things the Chinese are going to do with their digital currencies, they can control which dollars get spent on what, right?
So if you create X number of digital yen, then you can set them to be specifically only used for oil or only used for agriculture.
And so this idea that we're making the switch, the social credit score switch juxtaposed to like total economic control of currency is really scary because even if you have money, you won't be able to spend it on anything unless it's pre-approved, which I find very alarming.
And of course, they already have that with the social credit system in China.
You can't get on certain trains.
You certainly can't get a house.
But, you know, and again, all of this is tied in very intimately together, right?
You have the story of BlackRock last year that really came out of them buying up entire neighborhoods, right, to rent out really undercutting new homeowners who are trying to build their credit, who are trying to work their way up to perhaps a bigger owner, ownership in general, right?
Well, that goes back to what you originally said of circumventing restrictions of government through corporations.
If you don't own your home, who says the police can't search it?
You don't own it.
The owner says the police can search it in the same way that if they want to search your Google Drive, well, that's not your information.
The server is in California.
So they're going to search that drive whether you like it or not.
So it's all tied in together.
And the idea is creating a class of basically a neo-feudalism where you have a class that's approved by the system and they are rewarded for their participation in the system.
And those that are kept permanently in an underclass through permanent debt that prevents them from ever owning anything, therefore ever building anything.
And so they're kept in a constant state of dependency and really debt.
So I don't know how the debt plays into like the cryptocurrency stuff, but obviously the control of currency is like their main weapon and has been for the last couple hundred years.
So I don't know how digital currency is going to either disrupt it or be folded into their plan, but it definitely is a is a set of rapids in the river, I guess you could say.
Yeah, that's that's really interesting and ultimately really alarming.
And it just goes to show that like for a long time, I'm a big fan of Ayn Rand and I'm a big fan of la sa-faire capitalism.
But for a long time, you know, one of the main practical criticisms against Ayn Rand was you have to have some government involvement in the economy in order to regulate things that most almost everyone agrees with.
So things like building codes, right?
So make sure that a building's not going to collapse, right?
Like what we saw in Florida, for example, things like that.
Most people kind of agree.
Like, yeah, you know, that makes sense.
But the, you know, the funny thing about it is like now that we've, now that we've seen how a mixed economy plays out and how much leverage it catalyzes for government over major corporations and how they're able to use that leverage in order to violate your rights without actually breaking the law, then it really makes the case for laissez-faire capitalism.
I mean, the worse things get, it seems to me, the more obvious it is that the government should never have had to do anything, should never have had anything to do with the economy whatsoever.
Yeah, it's almost like it's almost like the Chinese finger trap.
Like the more you pull, the worse it gets, right?
Because, you know, regulatory capture is probably the single biggest issue with the American government right now.
Like we have, you know, we have the FDA, but if the FDA is funded by the pharmaceutical companies that it's overseeing, how effective is it going to be?
Right.
So, okay, the bigger, the bigger you make the organization, the more power it has, but the more valuable it is to the corporation.
So the more money they pour into it, it's like a, it's a feedback loop that is, yeah, incredibly destructive.
At the same time, you know, I mean, government these days is just completely off the rails, right?
The most basic thing that government is supposed to be instituted for, like if you could boil it down to just one thing, like what's the one, if you're going to have a government that just does one thing, what's it going to do?
Well, it's going to be to protect your borders, probably.
It's going to be to protect the people inside the nation from those outside the nation.
That's the point of having an army, the point of having a government.
If you're going to boil it down to one thing, that's it.
And they're not doing that.
They're doing the opposite of that.
They're bringing people in.
They've completely shredded the border.
So it's like, yeah, I like the idea of government because I like the idea of people getting together.
And so I don't have to go out and try to fight somebody on the border.
Like that makes no sense, right?
You need to have an organization that can do that sort of thing, but they're not doing it now.
So it's just like, and it's sort of the same thing to me with corporations.
I would be in favor of a trust-busting government.
I'd be in favor of, you know, action from the government that defended our rights from corporations because my interpretation of the Constitution or just natural law is that you don't get to violate my rights if you're a corporation or the government.
And so the government is supposed to be there to prevent the corporation from doing anything.
And our system is supposed to provide for the people to replace the government if they do anything.
Unfortunately, both of those seem to have stalled.
So I'm a bit blackpilled.
Well, it all goes straight back to John Locke's second treaties of government, right?
The purpose of a government is to have an unbiased third party that can protect your rights from being violated by anyone else, whether it's the mob or another individual.
So when somebody breaks into your house and steals from you, there's a reliable third party that you can call that's going to come.
They're going to investigate.
They're going to press charges and they're going to establish justice for that infringement on your rights, right?
That's a novel idea, Chase.
That's supposed to be the idea.
But they don't do any of this shit anymore.
Like if you own a store in San Francisco and you sell anything for less than a thousand bucks, they can just come in and take it and the government's not going to protect your rights.
It's like our leaders have totally lost sight of the whole entire justification for any government at all.
And I think that's why we see this like this major growth among the anarchists, right?
Like you have the Michael Malises and you have the others, these other intellectuals that are really pro-anarchy.
And I'm not an anarchist.
I'm not there yet.
But I understand how one could get there because it seems to me that any government that is ever established always outgrows its britches and ends up being the one infringing on your rights instead of the one protecting your rights.
And it seems that all democracy leads to tyranny.
I've tweeted before that the number one cause of tyranny is democracy.
And it's, it's, it's, you know, it's, I don't know what the solution is.
It's like, and I love the Constitution, and there's a lot of people on the right who worship it like an idol, you know, like it's this perfect thing.
But if it was really perfect, then we wouldn't be where we are.
Like, obviously, it wasn't good enough to stop it.
This is right.
This is the crux of the issue, right?
Is that all we want is to go back.
Like all the things that we want were enumerated in 1776, like or 1789, right?
We knew what the deal was, and we've strayed so far from that.
So it's almost that's that's why I feel like conservatives can't really figure out how to deal with things because you're, we're trying to preserve something that already exists in a conceptual, you know, form.
And the other people are offering change, but it's already changed so much that what we're trying to preserve is already unrecognizable.
So actually we need like a revolution to reestablish where we were back then.
And because yeah, nothing about what we want, nothing about what you just said is complicated at all.
It's difficult at all.
It's even controversial at all.
Somebody breaks in your house and steals your stuff.
There should be cops there to try to arrest them.
Like, is that so?
Is that so hard to understand?
But we've fallen so far now.
It's insane.
But unfortunately, the people making these changes are the ones saying everything is terrible.
And so the more they change things, the worse things get and the better their argument gets because they're the ones saying everything's terrible and it needs to change.
So they're advocating in favor of, I'll tell you one thing.
I have never been closer to being an anarchist than when I was about halfway through The Real Anthony Fauci by Robert F. Kennedy.
Because when you understand how deep the rot goes and you think about like, okay, if I was given power to fix this bureaucracy and you think about it, you go, nope, nope, there'd be nothing I could do.
It would just have to all go away because it's that broken.
So it's that infiltrated and it's that rotten to the core at this point.
Man, I got about halfway through the Robert F. Kennedy book and just put it down and just go, nope, there's no fixing this.
No fixing.
It's like looking at the Gordian knot, right?
It's just, you can't untangle that.
It's too complicated.
It won't work.
So that being said, what do you think the solution is?
I mean, what are we supposed to do as Americans?
Wait for God, perhaps.
No, I think, I mean, I think the thing is that they have been working this conspiracy.
This great recent conspiracy didn't spring up in 2020, right?
This is the ultimate goal that they've been talking about and planning for and working towards since 1913 or even earlier.
So they've had decades to try to sow these seeds.
And it really happened without people noticing, without really paying attention.
That's why Alex Jones was called a conspiracy theorist.
He saw what was happening.
He said, here's what they're doing and here's where it's leading.
And everybody called him crazy.
And so it went on behind the scenes and happened and happened.
I think Donald Trump was a major interruption of their plan.
I think the election of Donald Trump in 2020 was unexpected to them and forced them to change their plans.
So so much of what we see going on is orchestrated behind the scenes, is pre-planned.
You know, they'll cause a problem and then provide the solution for it.
It's a very simple but very effective formula they've come up with.
But at the same time, they're not gods.
They're not omniscient.
They don't control everything.
They don't control me.
I don't think they control you.
So like we're free.
We can make a difference.
We can open up other people's minds.
We can cause them to panic.
We can cause them to make mistakes.
We can cause them to slip up and then reveal their slip-ups and then call them out on it.
We can get people like Donald Trump elected.
Maybe not ever again, but we did once.
So, hey, there's that.
And so, you know, none of this is predetermined.
None of this is pre-established.
And, you know, I always get the question, like, are we doomed?
And my answer is always like, I'm not doomed.
You're not doomed.
People listening to us aren't doomed.
So no, we're not doomed.
We might just have a very lengthy fight ahead of us.
And unfortunately, we've seen several rocks in several other very hard places right now, from China to Russia to internal turmoil.
It's a sticky situation we find ourselves in.
But at the same time, man, look what's happened since the beginning of this year, since in the last 14 days.
It's been a total collapse of the narrative.
It's been a total collapse of the Democrat Party in a lot of ways.
Things can turn around very quickly, very rapidly.
And it's all about the mass of the people awakening to what's really going on and understanding what's really valuable, what's really worth it, and what's really driving the forces that they see around them every day.
That's what I do.
I'm pretty hoped, honestly.
Yeah, yeah.
And yeah, and I always, I always like the notion of enlightenment being the answer.
I just hope that enlightenment is enough, right?
And maybe it is.
It seemed to have worked wonders several centuries ago.
And so maybe that maybe that's as simple as that, just making people aware.
But I did notice you made one quick comment about 1913.
Do you think that this all started with the Federal Reserve?
Oh, amongst other things, my friend, I did a report about 1913.
And so that year, the Federal Reserve was created.
The income tax was created.
The 17th Amendment was passed, which made senators, instead of being appointed by legislatures, elected by popular vote in their state, increasing democracy, decreasing how much we were a republic.
The Rockefeller Foundation was created.
The ADL was created.
And Henry Ford invented the assembly line.
So yeah, 1913 was a very, very big year.
And then, of course, World War I starts the year after that.
So I honestly think, like, especially with the invention of the assembly line, I think the powers that be at that point, the Robert Barons, sort of saw the assembly line and were like, oh, we can do this for society.
Instead of having artisans who know how to make a car, you have one guy who stands there like a machine working as an ant, but he's not going to like that.
So how do we, you know, drug him to make him okay with living that life?
And this idea of like the, you know, Brave New World is the most important book of all time, perhaps, because Aldous Huxley was actually around the people talking about this and deciding this and planning this.
So he has said in interviews, Brave New World was not so much a fantasy of his.
It was just the novelization of the world that he saw being created by people that he knew, like his brother and his uncle, who was Darwin's understudy kind of guy.
So yeah, 1913 was, I think, a major change.
And the same thing, you know, war is very useful for these, for these massive changes.
And there were places in Texas I know that still spoke German in 1913 and 1914.
And the U.S. Army decided that wasn't good because if we go to war, we need to be able to train these guys.
So they need to be able to speak English.
So we better have a public school system to fold these guys into a larger society rather than being sort of independent pockets, which is how the West had been settled in the previous 50 to 70 years or so.
So I think there was a major change right around 1913.
I think that was the year and the Federal Reserve was sort of the capstone on it, but it was really very many things and very many changes in the minds of the people that were that were operating pulling the strings, as it were.
That's really interesting.
I didn't realize that it was such a big deal.
I mean, I knew that the establishment of the Federal Reserve was a really big deal, but I didn't realize that there were so many other variables that were going on there.
That's absolutely fascinating.
Could always be a coincidence, Chase.
Maybe it's a crazy coincidence that all these things happened at the same time, but I tend to find that a little bit suspicious, that they all came about at exactly the same time.
Well, the interesting thing is that it was only 16 years after the establishment of the Federal Reserve that we had the great collapse in 1929, something that hadn't happened for the previous 150 years, right?
So it seems like there's some sort of a correlation between the establishment of that fiat system and that central banking and what ultimately happened to the stock market in 29.
But that crash, like you said, people don't want to work in factories, but after the Great Depression, people were grateful to do anything.
Yeah, yeah.
And so when you show people what real suffering is, then a little suffering seems like a luxury.
Yeah, well, absolutely.
And hey, you know, Henry Ford is, as far as all accounts go, treated his workers extremely well.
So I don't think they were mad about being on an assembly line by any means.
But I think the, you know, it's almost like the fiat currency is like, is like the ring of power from Lord of the Rings, right?
It actually gives you great power.
You can double your money.
You can build all sorts of things on nothing.
But at the end of the day, it corrupts you from the inside out and it plants the seed of your own destruction.
And that's been the case for empires throughout all of history.
It's kind of a trend now on Twitter.
I love seeing it, but it's a pretty well-established phenomenon that as empires die, you can almost track it by how much their money is actually worth.
And from the British Empire to the Roman Empire and really any big world global spanning empire has ever had, they start adding, you know, non-precious metals to their coins.
They start, all right, this coin's going to be 50% silver.
These coins are going to be a little bit smaller.
You know, now we're just going to, you know, they start doing fiat back then.
It's not a new, you know, it wasn't invented in 1913.
It was just sort of, you know, created as a permanent feature in 1913 in a very sophisticated way that's kept it, kept it going, but kept it destroying this entire time.
Yeah.
Well, and, you know, a lot of people criticize Keynesian economics, and I'm a critic of Keynesian economics too, but what a lot of people don't realize is that with the establishment of the dollar as the global reserve currency after World War II, Keynes himself was under the impression that that would only be the case as long as the United States remained on the gold standard.
So a lot of the stuff that we're seeing, a lot of the economic fallout that we're seeing because we're fiat, is really because we're fiat and not backed by gold anymore, right?
And so I'm not a huge fan of John Maynard Keynes by any means, but I'm not as critical of him as some are likely to be because he would not have been pro what is happening today because what he agreed to and supported in the 50s after World War II was a gold-backed central currency, right?
It wasn't this BS that we've got going on right now.
And I think people lose sight of that.
And of course, one of the most eye-opening websites of all time is what the F happened in 1971, right?
That was when we went off the gold standard and it's just everything fell apart.
Absolutely.
We don't have any gold, man.
No, well, we don't have anything.
One of the most amazing things is when Powell, Jerome Powell, Jeremy Powell, I never know how to pronounce his name, Jerome, I think, Pow, was being questioned on the floor of the Senate or wherever it was just a few days ago.
And he's talking about inflation.
And at one point, he says, you know, there's a lot of demand for our paper.
And I thought that was kind of a, that was a little bit of a Freudian slip because when you just think about what he's actually saying, that is literally what he's saying.
He's like, well, there's a lot of demand for this paper that we make.
And it's like, it really is.
This is all a house of cards.
This is all a big, you know, slight show of sleight of hand.
Like, it's all a trick.
And he kind of lets it slip.
Well, the dollar, you know, there's still a lot of demand for our paper out there, blah, blah, blah.
It's like that would make sense if you were creating some sort of great paper that everybody, if you were talking about iPhones, talk about the demand for iPhones.
Yeah, yeah, it was a fine embossed cardstock.
I could understand that, but it's just like Patrick Bateman.
It's called Bone.
Dude, so yeah, there's a lot of demand for our paper right now.
And it's like, this is what our economy is built on.
Fantastic.
Amazing.
It all does come back to that.
