	With the recent success of the film 2000 Mules, alongside the fact that this year's midterm elections are coming up so very very soon, in fact as of today they are only 118 days away, well a lot of people are wondering what they can do to help.
	Because among other things, within the film, within 2000 Mules, which by the way has now been seen by well over 20 million people, there is video surveillance footage of people coming up to Dropboxes, And stuffing ballot after ballot after ballot into the slots, something which is not allowed in almost all states.
	However, the frustration that many people reported after seeing that film appears to now be translating into concrete action.
	Specifically, a sheriff out in the great state of Arizona, Mr.
	Mark Lamb, he was so moved after seeing the film that he actually contacted the lead researchers and together they launched a new project which will educate Americans about their local election laws, empower local sheriffs throughout the entire nation to both identify as well as to fight back against any potential fraud, and they're setting up a national empower local sheriffs throughout the entire nation to both identify as well as to fight back against any potential fraud, and they're setting up a national election hotline so that if anyone in the country sees something happening in their local municipality that they know shouldn't be happening, well, they can just pick up the phone
	Now luckily, we here at the Epoch Times, we were actually able to connect with Sheriff Lamb and ask him directly about this new project.
	Take a listen.
	So, with this new initiative that you launched, and for the viewers, you can find it over at protectamerica.vote, what is the goal of this particular initiative?
	What is the problem that you're trying to solve, and what would success look like?
	Well, I think there's a couple facets to it.
	I mean, look, we had some fraud going on in the last election.
	They have video proof.
	They've got cell phone proof that these folks were putting more ballots in the ballot box than they should have, which was legally and lawfully within their right.
	They were exceeding that.
	They were breaking the law.
	And where we can, we wanted to try to fight to hold those people accountable.
	But we also wanted to make sure that this doesn't happen again.
	Now, when you watch these videos, you can't tell who those people voted for.
	We have no idea whose vote was on that sheet.
	But what we do know is you put too many pallets in the box and you did it over and over and over again.
	And that is what True the Vote exposed, which you saw on 2,000 Mules.
	So we wanted to be able to help some of those sheriffs in those areas where they did do that, where they did pull that data and where they do have the evidence of that.
	Be able to help those sheriffs hold those people accountable, but also make sure that that doesn't happen again in any of our counties.
	And so we felt it was important on a couple levels to really get out there.
	And I think that's a very timely initiative, too, because I know that a lot of people throughout the entire country, after they saw that film, they wanted to know, what can I do?
	What can I actually do to help not only, you know...
	Bring justice to what happened in that year, in the year 2020, but also to prevent this from happening in the midterm elections in 2024 and so on.
	And so along that line, on the website, you actually published a five-step action plan.
	And I wanted to go through those five steps together with you.
	So the first step is called connecting citizens and sheriffs.
	And you wrote, quote,"...our goal is to unite citizens and their sheriffs to work together, ensuring the real voice of America's vote is heard." And so, along that line, what exactly does it mean to connect the citizens and the sheriffs, and what will that actually look like in practice?
	Yeah, a lot of people, like you said, you're getting questions, we're getting questions too.
	Like, Sheriff, what can we do to protect the vote?
	We wanted people to be able to have access or be able to know where to go to find How they can get a hold of their sheriff, what they can do to make contact with them and let them know that they want to be part of the solution and not the problem.
	And so we thought it was important to be able to connect.
	A lot of people don't even know who their sheriffs are in a lot of these counties across the country.
	So we wanted to be able to facilitate that, really create that relationship between that sheriff and their community where it doesn't already exist.
	And even where it does exist, just foster a better relationship so that they can work together on securing our vote.
	So the second part in your action plan, which is called Empowering Sheriffs, you wrote this, quote, We will provide local sheriffs with the training, resources, and tools to have real-time eyes on voting in their county.
	So what kind of specific tools are you going to be providing to the sheriffs across the entire country?
	Yeah, this is one of the reasons we started ProtectAmerica.Vote.
	I mean, obviously, these things aren't free.
	In some of these areas, they don't have the ability to put cameras where the boxes are so that they can monitor who's putting the ballots in there.
	So we wanted to have some tools to be able to give some of these sheriffs maybe cameras, Maybe some Intel analysts to help process and watch the data that's going to come in.
	You think about it, for example, in my county, I think we've probably got Eight to ten boxes out there.
	Some of them are within the government building.
	Some of them are outside of them.
	We needed to make sure that our cameras worked and now we're making sure that we have somebody that's monitoring every day the action that we're seeing at those boxes to make sure in real time that people are not violating the law so that we can actually hold people accountable in real time as opposed to a year and a half to two years later.
	These are all things that we want to help facilitate for those sheriffs.
	And to be honest with you, a lot of sheriffs don't even realize, a lot of them still haven't watched 2,000 Mules.
	A lot of them haven't realized the work that True the Vote's been doing and that maybe their community was affected by people putting too many ballots or ballot mules, putting too many ballots in the boxes.
	So we want to be able to educate those sheriffs as to what's going on and how they can Better watch and keep these things from happening.
	From my understanding, then, you're going to be providing them with the resources to set up cameras at their local ballot boxes, as well as educating them on what happened in the past.
	Is that correct?
	Yeah, so anything that we can do to give them more resources so that they can combat what happened in 2020, that is our goal.
	And so I guess to actually initiate that goal is action point number three, open lines of communication.
	This is what you wrote there, quote, We've set up a national election integrity voter hotline to help citizens in getting information and reporting problems, and it is supposed to go live on August the 1st of this year, which is about two weeks from now.
	So how is that coming along?
	Do you have enough people on staff to actually make it happen?
	It's coming along great.
	We're going to have enough people on staff to be able to process those calls.
	We anticipate there's probably going to be a lot of people calling.
	Not everybody knows even what county they live in or what number to call.
	So we wanted to make it as easy as possible for people to say, hey, look, I just saw this in Alabama.
	I'm just using Alabama as an example.
	But we could go, then go, and we could funnel that information to the sheriff's office or the right authority within that state or county or city to be able to deal with this issue in real time.
	We wanted to give the people a number they could call, make it easy as possible, some place where they can report it, and we can address the issue.
	Oh, so that's brilliant.
	So it's one number across the entire country.
	You call it and you say, hey, I live in XYZ County.
	This is what I saw.
	And then you essentially have a ticket system, I guess, something like that.
	You write it down, you have a number, you send it to the corresponding sheriff, and then they take it over and they take care of the cases.
	Is that how it'll work?
	That's it.
	We'll take the information.
	We'll send it to the right authority.
	So they can act on it, and then we'll reach out to those sheriffs and say, hey look, if there's anything we can do to help you on this, we'll do the best we can to help them with any resources they might need.
	A lot of people don't understand, not every county in this country is a big county.
	You know, there's a lot of counties that may only have a sheriff and a few deputies.
	And now, I wanted to show you this right here.
	This right here is an American Walking Liberty one ounce gold coin.
	And typically, I order at least one of these from our sponsor, American Heart for Gold, every single month.
	The reason I do so is because, I mean, as you likely know, the inflation rate in this country is the highest that it's been in, what, the last 40 years now?
	Everything, like the price of food, the price of housing, the price of gas, I absolutely do not give you any financial advice, but I would recommend that you do what I do, which is pick up the phone and call American Hartford Gold.
	Their super friendly staff can help you diversify your portfolio by either getting physical gold and physical silver delivered directly to your doorstep like I do, or deposited directly into your IRA and your 401k accounts that make the entire process super simple.
	And actually, besides me, they have an A-plus rating with the Better Business Bureau with quite literally thousands of satisfied clients around the country.
	And best of all, to our viewers, to the viewers of Facts Matter, they are currently throwing in $2,500 worth of free silver on your first qualifying order.
	So giving them a call is an absolute no-brainer.
	So pick up the phone and call 866-242-2352.
	That's 866-242-2352.
	Or text Roman to 65532.
	The link will also be down in the description box below.
	And then let's head on back to the studio.
	And then, I guess in order to tell people about this program and this hotline, the action point number four says to promote public service messages.
	And here's what she wrote.
	Quote, starting August the 1st, which is about two weeks from now, we will begin an informational campaign to educate voters state-by-state through multiple mediums, including television, online, and radio.
	So I guess this is what you mentioned earlier, right?
	These are the PSAs.
	And so the question I have is what will this educational campaign look like and where are the funds coming from?
	Well, hopefully the funds will come from American citizens who are willing to donate, who are fed up with what's been happening with our vote deteriorating year after year.
	Like I said before, we can't do this for free.
	It's not cheap.
	And so that's why we set up ProtectAmerica.Vote to be able to put the funds together to be able to do these PSAs across the country.
	Our ability to do these PSAs is going to be large in part depend on What kind of donations we receive?
	What kind of help we receive from the citizens?
	But we'll start probably in some of the cities that we saw, like for example, in 2000 Mules, which were most affected, where we already have data that True the Vote has been able to do and spent a lot of money to do that.
	We want to be able to really target those areas and let those folks know what the laws are as it relates to voting.
	And people can donate to this effort at the website, right?
	ProtectAmerica.vote.
	Is it a non-profit?
	Can people actually get a write-off on their taxes by donating?
	You know what?
	It is tax deductible because it goes through, I think, through the vote.
	And they are a 501c3.
	So it is tax deductible.
	Now, it's worth mentioning that what we just watched was not the full interview.
	Due to reasons of censorship here on YouTube, what we watched was only part of my discussion with Sheriff Lam.
	And if you'd like to watch that interview in its glorious, unedited entirety, you can do so over on Epic TV, our awesome no-censorship video platform.
	The link to the full interview will be right there at the very top of the description box.
	I hope you click on it.
	I hope you check it out.
	As well as I hope that you check out all the other great content over on Epic TV, because besides this interview, I actually published two exclusive episodes of Facts Matter only on Epic TV. Those are episodes that you cannot find here on YouTube.
	So again, the link will be right there at the very top of the description box.
	I hope you check it out.
	And lastly, I'd like to quickly mention that our trip over to the Netherlands was, in my opinion, a huge success.
	We roamed the entire country.
	We spoke to several dozen farmers, including some long sit-down interviews.
	We spoke to a nitrogen scientist who studied the whole nitrogen, quote-unquote, problem within the Netherlands for the past eight years, actually even commissioned by the nitrogen ministry over in the Netherlands.
	And he told us exactly what's going on and why the whole nitrogen thing is even a topic of discussion.
	We spoke to an opposition party leader within parliament, and he told us exactly what's happening behind the scenes and how essentially, at least from what I've been able to gather from these different discussions, this whole nitrogen debate is essentially a smokescreen that's being used by parliament in order to take the farmer's land because, Because you see, over in the Netherlands, the farmers own about 60% of the land.
	And the government, they want to transform the Netherlands into something like an urban center.
	They want to transform it, it appears at least, from the discussions and the different policies that they've put forward.
	They want to turn the entirety of the Netherlands into what they call a tri-state city or a tri-city state.
	Essentially, they want to make it into the New York City of Europe.
	They want to turn the entirety of the Netherlands into the New York City of Europe.
	However, what's stopping them is the fact that 60% of the land is owned by these local farmers who really take pride in their work, who take pride in their country.
	And they're not really that keen on selling the land to the government in order to develop it into some kind of urban center and import a bunch of people from different countries to come and live there.
	And so that appears to be what's happening in the Netherlands.
	And upon returning to America, I was reflecting on what happened there, what I took away from there, and I realized that for us, for Americans, looking at what's happening in the Netherlands is a phenomenal cautionary tale because it shows that if we allow our bureaucrats here so much power, if we empower them to make these broad decisions, Well, there is no reason to think, and in fact, history shows us that it will likely happen, that they will eventually turn around and use that power to actually implement their goals, which is separate from their stated goals.
	They will use their stated goals, whether that's To save the environment, to save the moss, to save the clover, to save the hay, or whatever they're trying to save within the ecology, they will use that as a talking point, as a tool to implement their actual goal, even if that goal means having 30-50% of the farmers in our country, or in their country, go out of business.
	Look out for more episodes from my trip there.
	So far, we've published two on this channel.
	We'll probably publish at least one more, likely two more in the coming future.
	And I hope you do pay attention to what's happening in the Netherlands because they are up a creek, you can say.
	But at the very same time, they are hopeful and they are fighting back against what they're calling the Great Reset as it's manifesting in their country.
	And so, look out for that in the near future.
	And until then, I'm your host, Roman from the Epoch Times.
