you're tuned in to the American Journal with your host Harrison Smith Watch it live right now at Band.Video. | |
| Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the show. | ||
| It's the American Journal, Infowars.com, Band.Video. | ||
| Please go share these links. | ||
| Get this information out. We'll be covering a lot about the trucker convoy in Canada. | ||
| Once again, we'll be hearing from some of the people online. | ||
| On the ground there, we'll also have David Pine in the third hour to talk about the looming war with Russia and Ukraine and China and whoever else wants to get in the mix. | ||
| But we'll begin as we do every day with our daily dispatch. | ||
| Alright, here it is folks, your daily dispatch. | ||
| For Wednesday, February 9th, 2022, mask mandates contact tracing are going away as states shift to a new phase. | ||
| Blue state governors and state health officials who most vigorously embraced pandemic restrictions are pivoting towards a new era using Omicron's decline to dial back precautions that have become a hallmark of the past two years. | ||
| New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy He's a Democrat who's taken a strict approach to pandemic protocols, but on Monday said he would lift the state's school mask mandate. | ||
| Governors in Connecticut and Delaware, as well as Oregon's Health Department, also announced Monday that students could soon remove their masks. | ||
| Governors in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York have also signaled forthcoming changes to their mask rules, while California Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, announced he is ending the indoor mask mandate next week, but keeping masks in classrooms for now. | ||
| Yes, and actually I think... | ||
| Who was it? Jesse Kelly had a really good tweet this morning that sums up my feelings on this. | ||
| He says, quote, No forgiveness without an apology. | ||
| No reconciliation with lockdown people. | ||
| They must be punished. | ||
| Some with prison time. We need trials. | ||
| Don't you dare let them come around to the correct position after what they've done. | ||
| There must be a reckoning. | ||
| And this will be a common theme in today's program. | ||
| We'll talk about people like Dr. | ||
| Linna Nguyen. Now they're warning us against the extremes of lockdowns. | ||
| Let's not get too extreme with it, folks. | ||
| The last two and a half years, sure, we've mandated that your life be destroyed, that you let loved ones die alone, and that if you even attempt to stand up against it, you'll be silenced, censored, demonized, and kicked out of your entire society. | ||
| But now it's time not to get extreme. | ||
| Yeah, we'll think about that very carefully as you walk towards the scaffold. | ||
| Meanwhile, Canadian truckers arrest as police warn of volatile protesters. | ||
| Ottawa police have said volatile and determined demonstrators remain in Canada's capital after nearly two weeks of trucker-led anti-vaccine mandate protest. | ||
| Nearly 80 criminal investigations have been opened in relation to the protest, including for alleged hate crimes and property damage. | ||
| Some two dozen people have been arrested. | ||
| Speaking to press on Tuesday, Deputy Police Chief Steve Bell said, Our message to the demonstrators remains the same. | ||
| Don't come. And if you do... | ||
| There will be consequences. | ||
| Some almost 500 miles away from Ottawa, Canada's busiest border crossing, the Ambassador Bridge, was partially reopened on Tuesday after protesters ground traffic there to a standstill. | ||
| And again, we'll cover this very extensively a little bit later. | ||
| Very interesting things going on there in Canada as police attempt to arrest everybody with a gas can and you find... | ||
| Thousands of citizens showing up with empty gas cans just to troll them. | ||
| And it's all falling apart, but we're getting some mixed messages there. | ||
| We'll try to get to the bottom of all of that a little bit later in the program. | ||
| Meanwhile, Joe Biden job approval rating crashes to 38%. | ||
| The free fall of President Joe Biden's job approval rating continued this week, dropping 38% over the past month. | ||
| The steady drop can largely be attributed to a sudden cratering in support amongst Democrats, 66% to 21%. | ||
| For independents, the president fared even worse with a 55% disapproval rating. | ||
| Which might go a little way to explain this next story. | ||
| DHS issues terrorism bulletin over conspiracy theories and misleading narratives. | ||
| And again, you can just replace these terms with the Orwellian wrong think and it actually makes a lot more sense. | ||
| The United States, this is from the DHS Bulletin, quote, the United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories and other form of wrong think introduced and or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors, the DHS Bulletin stated. | ||
| Yes, apparently a lack of trust in the Biden administration and the legacy media represents a terrorist threat. | ||
| The Democrats find that their support amongst the people is cratering, so they activate the intelligence agencies to call them terrorists and destroy them that way. | ||
| And they're doing it to the Congress people as well. | ||
| DOJ caught opening Louie Gohmert's mail in the House. | ||

Total tyranny. You're tuned in to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Watch it live right now at band.video. | ||
| Welcome back, folks. | ||
| This is The American Journal. | ||
| So glad you're here with us today. | ||
| I hope you're sharing the links. | ||
| Hope you're going to infowarsstore.com. | ||
| Hope you're doing well on this fine Wednesday morning. | ||
| I have so many videos to show you. | ||
| We're going to start, of course, as we have the last couple days. | ||
| This whole week has been really, it's been the Trucker Convoy Journal rather than the American Journal, the Canadian Autowin Journal. | ||
| But it's because this is the most effective and important uprising that we've seen in a very long time against these ridiculous medical, this medical tyranny that we're experiencing around the world. | ||
| So it's something to be supported. | ||
| Of course, the Big news is that they essentially tried to make illegal the peaceful protest against the draconian overreach of the government. | ||
| And we were a little worried about it yesterday. | ||
| But then this video by Alex Cargill, who will be on with us at 9.30, was a little white pill, a little... | ||
| A bit of sunshine on a cloudy day. | ||
| So here's Alex Cargill responding to these police threats and letting everybody know that the mood on the ground is not a fearful one. | ||
| It's a joyous and rejoicing one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's watch. That little sass asked him what was up. | |
| Yeah, people are on edge because they talk to the Internet. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the Internet talks about how the police are playing a big build-up. | |
| And yes, Thomas Quigley speaking for the truckers last night at a press conference that you can check in with Laura Lynn to see that from last night was not inspiring confidence at all. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He looked like a defeated man who was surprised that police might crack down. | |
| They have had a war room in place of ways to sabotage this movement from the beginning. | ||
| The false flags and false Nazi flags and false Confederate flags that are of their own making is all they're running on as a pretext. | ||
| And the fact that they've hystericalized the Ottawa populace by saying it's an insurrection. | ||
| They're harassing people. No one's harassing anyone except mass people that have been whipped up into a frenzy by watching too much news. | ||
| So, we're all here. | ||
| We're all peaceful. No one here is scared. | ||
| I've never found a trucker yet that's like, oh my god, they threatened to arrest us unlawfully. | ||
| I better go home. Everyone is here to do what must be done and stay here peacefully. | ||
| What the police do is up to them. | ||
| What's up, brother? And we feel no pressure by them. | ||
| Oh, I was going to save my country, but then I heard that the police might unlawfully arrest people on no reason whatsoever. | ||
| No one here is scared of that, guys. | ||
| The police, it's up to them in their own conscience. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We've done what we can to build goodwill with them, and now it's in their court. | |
| If there's RCMP all suited up and we've got their riot shields, we're going to tell them our name, and then we're going to say we'd like to speak with counsel before we talk to you any further. | ||
| No one here knows the deal. No one here is scared. | ||
| I said on day one there's a no fear campaign. | ||
| All this bad stuff, doom and gloom that I thought could happen has not happened. | ||
| They have a couple of flags of their own making to generate a demonization of this movement and that's it. | ||
| People are abandoning them. | ||
| Right now the liberals are running away from Trudeau. | ||
| Right now you've had Aaron switched out with Pierre for whatever cosmetic purpose that serves. | ||
| It's just a different puppet that doesn't speak as stupid as Aaron did. | ||
| But that's neither here nor there, guys. | ||
| We'll talk about the political aspect after we win the mandates war. | ||
| We're all here and we're not worried. | ||
| You're worried because you feel helpless because you're not here. | ||
| Why don't you fix that? If you lose contact with us and cell phone service goes down, everyone come here. | ||
| Or elect one person of your family that can be loaded up with supplies, water, canned goods to come down as a representative. | ||
| Make sure you pick someone who's not easily agitated and can stay Jedi-like calm in the face of tyranny that's going to be hoisted upon us. | ||
| We're all here for the long haul. | ||
| We're all here for freedom. We're not scared of being unlawfully arrested. | ||
| Stop shitting your pants out there, guys. | ||
| I get it. It's a psyop of misproportion, but you can live through this. | ||
| Yeah, incredible. Words of wisdom there from Alex Cargill. | ||
| Really, really incredible stuff. | ||
| And yeah, it looks like what he's saying is true. | ||
| Let's go down to clip number 21. | ||
| Because again, what they attempted to do, since they can't just say, no, it's illegal to protest against us. | ||
| I mean, they are kind of saying that, but they have to be a little bit more subtle in their... | ||
| You know, violations of your basic human rights. | ||
| So they say, no, no, we're going to go arrest people or charge people who are carrying gas and fuel to the protesters. | ||
| See, protesting is legal, but aiding and abetting the protesters is illegal. | ||
| If this doesn't make any sense to you, it's because you're a human being and you're not used to the robotic anarcho-tyranny laws of total despotism quite yet. | ||
| They were going to arrest people who had gas cans, who were bringing gas and supplies to the truckers. | ||
| But the people of Ottawa had a different idea. | ||
| Here they are bringing the gas cans in flagrant violation of these tyrannical orders. | ||
| Clip 21. And for our radio listeners here, you're seeing a crowd of dozens and dozens of people, kids, adults, men, women, young, old, carrying red jerry cans, carrying these fuel cans. | ||
| Oh, they're all committing the law. | ||
| Dangerous terrorists there bringing arms to their terrorist brothers. | ||
| Totally ridiculous. But of course, it seems like this is turning around now. | ||
| Clip number 19 shows that the Ottawa police were actually returning all of the fuel that they took from truckers after a judge's order reversed this unlawful decree. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Clip 19. Look at this. | |
| Look at this. | ||
| So again, you're just seeing row upon row of these plastic gas cans that were confiscated by the Ottawa police before a judge stepped in and said, no, sorry, folks, that's a violation of human rights. | ||
| Oh, sorry, that's an unlawful order. | ||
| Going to have to give all that gas back to the good people of Canada. | ||
| And so that's what's happening. | ||
| We're just in a state of flux here. | ||
| We're in a state of chaos where they're desperate to do whatever they can to prevent this trucker protest from continuing and continuing to be successful and showing them what real opposition to their tyranny looks like. | ||
| And so, of course, the media is getting in on the mix. | ||
| And again, I have a lot of videos to show you here. | ||
| We're going to show some people speaking up against this, both in Canadian Parliament, some Ottawa police officers standing up against these unlawful orders and saying they will not comply and they are on the side of the truckers. | ||
| But first, let's go to this supercut of progressives trying to smash this workers' revolt. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Clip 24. Sedition, insurrection, a threat to democracy. | |
| This city is under siege. | ||
| They are now calling it an occupation. | ||
| An alarming situation there in Ottawa. | ||
| The police chief is calling it a nationwide insurrection driven by madness. | ||
| This is kind of our insurrection by air horn moment. | ||
| I think it's part of the globalization of Trumpism. | ||
| Canadians know where I stand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There hasn't been as much violence as some had perhaps projected, but that does not necessarily mean that it has been peaceful. | |
| Reports of severe vandalism and criminal behavior. | ||
| Streets are clogged. The honking is incessant and deafening. | ||
| This pandemic has sucked for all Canadians. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Residents that I have spoken to who say they feel terrorized, intimidated. | |
| Residents say they feel like hostages. | ||
| Residents in that area say that they are being held hostage, that this freedom has essentially, this freedom convoy, as they call it, has essentially imposed a lockdown on them. | ||
| No, a lockdown. These anti-vaxxers actually took food from the mouths of the homeless. | ||
| Hungry, yeah. Because they're so put upon. | ||
| There have not been any violent outbursts. | ||
| However, horns have been honking for 12 to 21 hours a night. | ||
| The small fringe minority of people who are on their way to Ottawa or who are holding unacceptable views that they're expressing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Many of them are holding Confederate flags. | |
| I've heard there's QAnon supporters in the crowd. | ||
| We've seen swastikas. | ||
| We've seen the Confederate flag. | ||
| We've seen flags with Justin Trudeau, our prime minister, in a noose. | ||
| Lots of Donald Trump flags as well. | ||
| People chanting, let's go Brandon. | ||
| It is actually one of the rare times in history you're going to see swastikas and yellow stars at the same protest. | ||
| A few people Shouting and waving swastikas does not define who Canadians are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ottawa is being besieged by a group of anti-do-anything-about-COVID truckers called the Freedom Convoy. | |
| A so-called Freedom Convoy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A so-called Freedom Convoy of truckers. | |
| It's... A cult. | ||
| Yes, it is. We've heard it called a nationwide insurrection. | ||
| A threat to democracy, an insurrection, sedition. | ||
| This is a moment for responsible leaders to think carefully about where they stand and who they stand with. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely incredible stuff from Grabion. | ||
| That's all they have, folks. You smell that? | ||
| You smell that in the air? | ||
| It's desperation. They're absolutely desperate. | ||
| And even their criticisms of the truck convoy are so ironic. | ||
| It is hilarious. | ||
| Oh, these trucker convoys have locked down Ottawa. | ||
| Oh, the lockdown is really painful. | ||
| The truck convoy there to protest against the lockdown is causing too much lockdown. | ||
| It's absurd. And then the way that... | ||
| Old Mika Brzezinski or whatever her name is. | ||
| It's like stealing food from homeless people. | ||
| Yeah, they're eating babies too. | ||
| Yeah, they're barbecuing babies out in the lawn. | ||
| It's just awful to hear the way these truckers are just eating babies out there and it's horrible. | ||
| It's all made up nonsense and we'll tell you the truth on the other side. | ||
| Stay tuned, folks. It's a brilliant thing. | ||
| Alright folks, the powers that be in Ottawa, Canada are attempting to do everything and anything they can to demonize the truckers to justify their tyrannical crackdown on this peaceful protest. | ||
| But unfortunately, not everybody is buying it. | ||
| And that includes people both in the Ottawa police force and in the political sphere. | ||
| Let's go now to... | ||
| We'll go to clip 18 here. | ||
| This is a liberal MP, Joel Lightbound, explaining why he is breaking with the Trudeau regime in supporting the people's desire to be free from this medical martial law. | ||
| Clip number 18, MP, liberal MP, Joel Lightbound. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here he is. They're confused when they hear Dr. | |
| Tam state last week that all existing public health policies, including vaccine passports, need to be re-examined and that we need to have longer-term, sustained approaches and capacity building so we're not in crisis mode all the time as we fight this virus. | ||
| They're confused when they see the undeniable trend around the world whereby, for instance, the World Health Organization recently recommended dropping or alleviating many border measures, including vaccine requirements, as they've proven to be ineffective in fighting the propagation of the Omicron variant. | ||
| That's the World Health Organization. | ||
| They're confused when they see countries around the world like Ireland, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Israel, Denmark, Spain, and the UK, who have either dropped almost all restrictions or are fast moving in that direction. | ||
| All countries, I note, with lower vaccination rates than us. | ||
| Now, while folks are hearing and seeing all of this, they're left rightfully wondering where the hell are we heading here in Canada? | ||
| I think there lies the frustration. | ||
| They feel there is no appetite from our government to adapt so as to reflect the changing data and the changing reality of the pandemic and of the world. | ||
| They're worried that measures which ought to be exceptional and limited in time are being normalized with no end in sight, like vaccine passports, mandates, and requirements for travelers. | ||
| They're worried because they feel it is becoming harder and harder to know where public health stops and where politics begins. | ||
| Yeah, well, they're one and the same now. | ||
| Whatever the liberals oppose is now a medical health threat that must be opposed with all of the strenuous extremity as fighting the Black Death, the plague. | ||
| It's a mental illness they're trying to cure Canadians of, this strain. | ||
| It's a new strain of freedom that is catching, becoming epidemic really. | ||
| And they're trying to put a stop to it as quickly as possible. | ||
| But of course, it's not just the politicians. | ||
| It's the police as well. | ||
| Let's go now to clip number 17 because again, as we've seen many times in this truck convoy, some of the most supportive of the freedom convoy are people who originally grew up in occupied communist countries. | ||
| And they recognize the threat to freedom that Canadians in their blissful ignorance seem to think are all just totally fine and normal. | ||
| The Eastern Europeans are a little bit more clear-eyed about this. | ||
| This particular woman is a police officer in Canada, who again breaks down into tears when looking at the freedoms that She loves about her adopted country being torn away from her and the people of Canada, not even seeming to recognize it. | ||
| Clip 17 here, Eastern European policewoman supporting Canadian truckers. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm up here by myself. | |
| And the only answer I had, very short and straight, I wanted to be free. | ||
| My heart has been broken every day. | ||
| When I saw them. | ||
| The very freedom that I moved to Canada for has been taken away. | ||
| And people, Canadians who lived here, who were born here, they were not recognizing that. | ||
| I fought here. | ||
| I fought to come here to have it. | ||
| It was very difficult to see, to be taken away. | ||
| Thank you trackers, thank you farmers, thank you people with open hearts and clear minds for standing up, the police officers, when we could not stand up for you. | ||
| I know it's clear in my mind what decision I will make when I'm asked to follow an unlawful order. | ||
| I'm For freedom of choice, for freedom of conscience, for freedom of speech, for freedom of expression, for freedom of communication. | ||
| And I am to serve, protect, and to help out you people in Canada. | ||
| Thank you. Police officer actually understands her duty. | ||
| Here's another one. Clip 15, a Calgary police officer speaking out against the political policing of the protest that the powers that be would rather just not have happen. | ||
| So send the police after him. | ||
| This police officer begs to differ. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's watch. Hello, my name is Nick Motichka. | |
| I'm a police officer currently with the Calgary Police Service. | ||
| I've been with Calgary for just a little over 10 years. | ||
| And prior to that, I was with the RCMP for approximately six years. | ||
| I just wanted to read something that I wrote this evening. | ||
| Today was a hard day for me. | ||
| Something was taken away from me that I can never get back. | ||
| Watching members of the Ottawa Police Service seize fuel from peaceful protesters took away a long-held belief that I thought to be a lasting truth. | ||
| And that is that the police are here, when push really comes to shove, to protect and help people. | ||
| I will never see my profession in the same light than I did before today. | ||
| What I saw was the police doing politicians' dirty work, like hired goons. | ||
| This goes against every reason why I chose this mostly thankless, difficult, traumatizing career with terrible hours. | ||
| The reason I got into law enforcement was to help people. | ||
| However naive that was, it is my honest truth. | ||
| As the years wore on, I'll be the first to admit that I got jaded, but I never let anything compromise my integrity. | ||
| I always applied the front page of the newspaper test, and that is, would I be okay with whatever I was about to do, being on the front page of the paper? | ||
| Or a news story in your feed for younger viewers? | ||
| Doing what was right, even when no one was looking, even if it was difficult, was always the right decision. | ||
| What is happening in Ottawa with the clear political influence on the police to physically exert political will on peaceful protesters for nothing more than possible political gain is so very wrong on so many levels. | ||
| I was just following orders is no longer an excuse. | ||
| It is time to stand up and speak out by refusing to preach your fellow citizens' fundamental charter rights. | ||
| You signed up to help people. | ||
| Stand with your fellow Canadians and say enough is enough. | ||
| You know, it's great to see. | ||
| And, you know, sometimes I guess this is just the fact of the matter. | ||
| Some people need to be slapped in the face before they wake up. | ||
| Because what he's talking about, police being used to, I think as he put it, do politicians dirty work and do their bidding as if they're simply nothing more than hired goons. | ||
| That's been exactly what the police have been engaged in for the past two years. | ||
| That's exactly what they were doing when they were shutting down independent businesses who tried to stay open. | ||
| When they're arresting people for trying to walk their dogs in Ontario, they were doing exactly the same thing. | ||
| Maybe now it's just so apparent. | ||
| It's so obvious. They've overstepped their bounds by such an amount that it becomes impossible to ignore. | ||
| So it's good that people are finally waking up to this. | ||
| But you have to understand, this is not new. | ||
| This is simply an extension and the inevitable and obvious consequence of unfettered political power under the guise of medical... | ||
| Tyranny. It's been happening for two years. | ||
| Finally, they're waking up. | ||
| We'll show you on the other side what might be a disturbing escalation here. | ||
|

|
You're watching the American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Watch live right now at band.video. | ||
| Welcome back, folks. There's still so much to cover, and we'll get off the trucker convoy news here in just a minute. | ||
| We've got our own, you know, overwhelming, nation-destroying despotism coming down on our own heads that we should be worrying about. | ||
| But, you know, the Trucker Convoy... | ||
| The way they're being presented in the media and the way they're being portrayed so dishonestly, I feel a certain obligation to try to tell the real story and try to show you the true success that's going on. | ||
| Although there is a troubling video that I'll show you in just a second. | ||
| Which I really am struggling to explain when it comes to the trucker convoy. | ||
| We'll get to that in just a moment. Let's go first to clip number 27. | ||
| It's an extended clip because, you know, you can never have enough of Justin Trudeau being humiliated in public. | ||
| And that's exactly what's going on here. | ||
| And again, you know, it's just a common theme that we always have to try to sort through. | ||
| In American Journal, the way that just honest, decent people ask somebody in charge for just some human consideration and they just get back this boilerplate talking point nonsense. | ||
| And that's what you're about to see. | ||
| You're about to see a very powerful conservative speaker really tear down Trudeau and Trudeau just give you that smiling corporate newspeak That means nothing and says nothing and is the same thing he said a million times because he's a robot in PC with no soul. | ||
| So let's watch now as he's heckled and can hardly even respond by his own parliament, which I got to say, parliamentary politics is a little bit chaotic and stupid in my opinion. | ||
| I actually like the American system a lot better than the European parliamentary system, but I do love the question time. | ||
| The UK does this. | ||
| Canada does this. A lot of commonwealth Countries continue to do this in other European countries where you have the leader, the prime minister, actually have to stand there and take this combative back and forth. | ||
| And everybody's yelling at the same. | ||
| It's actually very exciting and fun and something that I would love if we had here. | ||
| Because can you imagine Joe Biden trying to answer questions as he's being shouted down by the Republicans? | ||
| It would be awesome. It would be so cool. | ||
|
unidentified
|
cool. | |
| So I love this. | ||
| I love this aspect of parliamentary governance. | ||
| And this is exactly what it's for. | ||
| It's to expose your leaders in real time as you ask them questions and find them completely unable to answer. | ||
| Clip number 27, Trudeau's heckled on parliament floor as he attempts to respond to opposition calls to the mandates. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's watch. As to lockdowns and mandates, we're seeing things change very quickly, and rightly so. | |
| Dr. Tam has said that vaccine mandates should be re-evaluated, and today the Chair of the Quebec Liberal Caucus clearly and strongly stated it's time to end the divisiveness and the politicization and end the mandates. | ||
| We Conservatives could not agree more. | ||
| This cannot be a slow and dragged out process simply because of the Prime Minister's ego, pride, or denial. | ||
| Canadians are too tired. | ||
| Canadians need hope. | ||
| So will the Prime Minister follow the science, follow the evidence, and the restrictions, and the mandates? | ||
| The Right Honourable Prime Minister. | ||
| Mr. Speaker, everyone is sick and tired of lockdowns, of the measures we have to do, of the sacrifices we've had to make. | ||
| But Canadians have continued to step up over the past two years, been there for each other, been there to get vaccinated. | ||
| And that's the unity we've seen across the country of people who've been there for their neighbours, who've been there for their frontline health workers, That's what Canadians are going to continue to do. | ||
| That's how we get through and back to the things we love. | ||
| We're going to continue to follow the science. | ||
| We're going to continue to have Canadians' backs. | ||
| We're going to continue to protect people's lives. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Honourable Leader of the Opposition. | |
| Countries like Ireland, Sweden, Norway, Israel, Czech Republic, the UK, Spain, Denmark, they're all removing restrictions and mandates and they're all countries that have a lower vaccine rate than Canada. | ||
| Here in Canada, though, we have a Prime Minister who refuses to lead and instead is being divisive. | ||
| I have to agree with the MP for Louis Hebert when he says people don't know where public health ends and politics begins. | ||
| Canadians want their lives back. | ||
| So again, I ask the Prime Minister, will he follow the evidence? | ||
| Will he follow the science and the mandates and the restrictions quickly? | ||
| The Right Honourable Prime Minister. | ||
| Mr. Speaker, every step of the way, we have had Canadians back by following the science, by working closely with... | ||
| Sit down, Justin. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The answer is not good, is it? | |
| The order. | ||
| Order. | ||
| Now, the Honourable Leader of the Opposition asked a question. | ||
| She's trying to hear, but she can't hear it above all the heckling and shouting that's going on. | ||
| So I'm going to ask everyone to just keep it down so she can hear the answer coming from the Prime Minister, the right Honourable Prime Minister. | ||
| Mr. Speaker, from the beginning of this pandemic, we have followed science. | ||
| We have had Canadians' backs. | ||
| We've actually seen a less severe impact on lives, on livelihoods, and our economy than many other countries, including the ones that the Leader of the Opposition We will continue to follow the science. | ||
| We will continue to lean on each other as Canadians as we make it through this pandemic. | ||
| We know that it's tiring, we know it's exhausting, but we also know that having each other's backs is the way through this pandemic. | ||

The Leader of the Opposition. | |
| The Prime Minister has politicized the pandemic and been divisive and even his own members are seeing it. | ||
| Now countries around the world are opening up and even here in Canada provinces are opening up. | ||
| They're following the science and the evidence. | ||
| Whether it's Dr. Henry in BC, Dr. | ||
| Moore in Ontario, they all agree we have to learn to live with COVID. Conservatives believe that living with COVID means opening up and ending the mandates and I believe there are some Liberals who believe the same thing. | ||
| So will the Prime Minister follow the science and the lockdowns and let Canada once again be the true North strong and free? | ||
| The right honourable Prime Minister. | ||
| Mr. Speaker, I'm extremely pleased to hear the Conservatives finally talking about following science because that's something that they have fallen down on throughout this pandemic. | ||
| Whether it's not choosing to get vaccinated, whether it's continuing to debate over the effectiveness of public health measures. | ||
| Fortunately, we've been working with provincial premiers right across to bring in the kinds of restrictions, the kinds of mandates that have saved Canadians lives. | ||
| Unfortunately, we see Conservatives continuing to both call an end to the protests from in here and support them out there. | ||
| They need to be more responsible leaders to get through this and to play less politics. | ||
| You know, scientism is just the most convenient religion you can possibly subscribe to because it changes at a whim. | ||
| It's unquestionable. | ||
| You cannot question it. You have to trust the science. | ||
| But then when the science changes, you know, it's whatever. | ||
| You know, it's whatever you want it to be. | ||
| And then when the science shows that the previous science that was unquestionable is actually wrong, there's no sort of awareness. | ||
| There's no sort of questioning that happens in the mind of the Faithful adherence to this new religion, they just continue on and yeah, okay, so the science now has shown that the masks don't work, the lockdowns weren't just ineffective but actually hugely damaging and the social distancing was completely made up, arbitrary and non-effective, the plastic barriers don't work, the vaccine doesn't work and in fact makes you more likely to get Omicron now. | ||
| So the science has proven that all of the other science that they relied on before was utterly baseless and wrong, but they're not changing anything. | ||
| They're sticking with the mandates because, you know, trust the science. | ||
| It's very convenient in this way. | ||
| Now, again, we're going to move on from the trucker convoy here, but I do want to play one more video, supposedly, of one of the main organizers of the convoy. | ||
| So we clip number three here. | ||
| Really inexplicable. | ||
| This statement that he makes, I cannot explain it. | ||
| I can't make sense of it. We'll ask Alex Cargill about it when he's on, but... | ||
| Here's what was made, a statement that was made earlier today by one of the leaders of the convoy that, again, boggles the mind. | ||

Let's watch. Okay, guys, so Ottawa is working really well with this when it comes to law enforcement. | |
| Just came out of a meeting upstairs with a bunch of the top brass in this little movement here. | ||
| And tomorrow we're going to pull up stakes and we're going to head for Toronto. | ||
| I don't think Toronto's quite had enough entertainment for this, and Ottawa's getting a little sticky on their law enforcement, so... | ||
| Yeah, tomorrow we'll pull up a stake and we'll head for Toronto. | ||
| See you tomorrow, guys. Toronto, get ready. | ||
| It's going to be epic. We've got all these trucks heading your direction. | ||
| So I don't get it. I don't get it. | ||
| I don't understand what's going on here. | ||
| Here you're on the cusp of victory. | ||
| The tyrannical laws trying to confiscate your fuel have been overturned by a judge. | ||
| You've got the support of everyone in Ottawa as they show up with fuel tanks in opposition to the tyrannical overreach. | ||
| You've got politicians standing up and you're going to leave? | ||
| You're going to pull up stakes and leave? | ||
| Just be a strategic relocation? | ||

I don't know. Destroyers Hold you up to the flames What a coincidence. | |
| What a weird coincidence it was that in 2012, the London Olympic opening ceremony had a symbolic representation of what would happen a short eight years later. | ||
| But don't worry, folks. Reuters' facts check it, and they say that it's a total coincidence and to stop asking questions. | ||
| So, yes, sir, we will. | ||
| And they're like... That wasn't a giant figure of the embodiment of death dancing or, you know, lording over the dancing nurses and doctors. | ||
| No, that was Lord Voldemort. | ||
| See, that little dance number was celebrating children's literature. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Of course it was. | ||
| It's just a coincidence. Right? | ||
| Just a big coincidence. Kind of like what happened earlier this week when comedian Heather McDonald had another little coincidence that took place there on the stage. | ||
| Let's go to clip number four as the video has now been released of this woman, this female comedian Heather McDonald. | ||
| We'd heard she'd passed out after making a joke about COVID. We hadn't heard just how coincidental it all was. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's watch the video now. I don't mean to brag, I don't care, but I want you to know, double vaxxed, booster, flu shot, and I'm going to be honest, I have the shingle shot too. | |
| And I still get my period. | ||
| What? Yes! Traveled, went to Mexico twice, did shows, meet and greets, never got COVID. Clearly, Jesus loves me the most. | ||
| Seriously. So nice. | ||
| So nice! Who says women comedians aren't funny? | ||
| Hysterical. Great, great bit. | ||
| But no, honestly, pretty tragic. | ||
| Pretty devastating. She suffered a skull fracture from that fall. | ||
| It's not great. Not good. | ||
| Just another one of these coincidences, right? | ||
| Bragging about being pumped full of pharmaceutical products, mocking the Lord Jesus Christ's name, and then suddenly you're struck by a sudden fainting fit that leaves your skull fractured. | ||
| This might be a wake-up call. | ||
| This might be a very powerful wake-up call to you. | ||
| Again, it sucks. | ||
| I actually don't want to celebrate this. | ||
| Heather MacDonald... Pretty upsetting. | ||
|

|
But they say... | |
| That she didn't drink any. | ||
| She didn't have any alcohol that day. | ||
| She was admitted to a local hospital where comprehensive work is underway. | ||
| Thus far, the test revealed no underlying medical issues that may have precipitated this event, her rep added, noting that she performed that night before with no incident. | ||
| She didn't consume any alcohol before or during Saturday evening's show. | ||
| McDonald's fainting spell does not appear to be COVID-related, they say. | ||
| Her rep also said she received a booster shot approximately three weeks ago and recently tested negative for coronavirus. | ||
| Audience members told TMZ that the comedian collapsed after making a joke about being vaxxed, double vaxxed, boosted, leading many to initially believe it was part of the act. | ||
| An EMTM nurse who happened to be in the audience rushed to the stage to provide first aid. | ||
| McDonald told the outlet she passed out in an ambulance and had her sister-in-law, passed on an ambulance rather, and had her sister-in-law drive her to the hospital. | ||
| So hopefully she's better. | ||
| Hopefully she's all right. Hopefully, you know. | ||
| She won't get the next booster. | ||
| Hopefully next time they demand she takes an experimental shot. | ||
| She'll be like, yeah, last time I did this, I collapsed in front of an audience and cracked my skull on the ground. | ||
| So, you know, maybe this time I'll risk getting the sniffles. | ||
| Maybe. This time. | ||
| I don't know. Just, you know, another coincidence. | ||
| Another one of these coincidences that there's nothing we can do about it and it's just awful. | ||
| It's just awful and terrible and there's nothing we can do about it. | ||
| But, however, the science is changing. | ||
| The science is just changing, folks, and that's just what happens. | ||
| Science changes. You know, what is unquestionable truth one day becomes... | ||
| It's intolerable dissent the next. | ||
| And science changes and you just have to change with it. | ||
| Except when it changes and you don't want to change with it. | ||
| In which case, you know, you're a terrorist for changing with it. | ||
| It's confusing. Just know that this is all nonsense. | ||
| It's all bullcrap. | ||
| And all the science that they claim to be basing their decisions on is non-existent. | ||
| Doesn't actually exist. There's no evidence for what they're promoting. | ||
| They're promoting something in line with a political agenda that was established long before COVID ever hit the scene, but used COVID as a convenient little piggyback to take to the road to total control. | ||
| But they're very worried now about extremes. | ||
| All of the extremists are coming out of the woodwork, I guess. | ||
| And here's an opinion from The Washington Post. | ||
| In this next phase of the pandemic, beware of the extremes. | ||
| Now, see, the extremes are only for the first phase. | ||
| The extremes where we were shutting down your entire economy, where we were yelling at you, kicking you out of social life entirely, you know, writing things about how you deserve to die. | ||
| Still, to this day, currently, they're denying people crucial organ transplants, meaning they're signing them to death. | ||
| For not getting vaccinated. See, that's not extreme. | ||
| That's normal. That's totally normal and fine and regular. | ||
| Masking children for several years, calling parents who speak out against this, domestic terrorism. | ||
| See, that was the first phase. | ||
| That was where they had to be extreme to lock us all down and demoralize us and get us into a state of mass formation psychosis. | ||
| But now they're worried. | ||
| Let's not get too extreme in it. | ||
| Let's not get too extreme because if we get too extreme in the pushback to what we've experienced for the past few years, the people that were extreme in the first phase might find the same extremity imposed upon them, which it should be. | ||
| It absolutely should be. | ||
| They're not going to get away with this. | ||
| We must not let them get away with this. | ||
| It's up to us. They're going to keep going. | ||
| They're going to keep pushing. | ||
| They're going to act like all of this was just, we just didn't know. | ||
| We were just doing the best we could. | ||
| Which would have made sense, which would have been a viable argument if Infowars didn't exist. | ||
| If this side of the aisle didn't exist, if we hadn't been telling you from day one exactly what the consequences would be, exactly how negative these... | ||
| What measures would actually be in the long run, then you could say, well, nobody knew. | ||
| We were all on the same page. | ||
| We're all going off the same stuff. | ||
| And it just turned out we were all wrong. | ||
| Well, we weren't all wrong because we were never wrong because we knew this the whole time. | ||
| So your excuse doesn't make any sense. | ||
| It's not going to fly. You knew the risks. | ||
| You knew what the outcome was going to be. | ||
| You knew that the impositions that you were mandating on people We're never gonna work, and we're gonna have vastly horrific negative consequences, and you impose them anyway, which means you're a criminal, which means you've destroyed the world on your own, by your own volition, by your own decisions and your own policies. | ||
| Flagrantly in the face of people like us who were begging you desperately to not do these things. | ||
| So you're not going to get away with this. | ||
| We're not just going to, you know, sigh in relief and, oh, wow, they've stopped tyrannizing us now. | ||
| We can forgive and forget. | ||
| I don't think that's going to happen. | ||
| And it shouldn't happen. And it's up to every one of us to demand that it doesn't happen. | ||
| To demand that our representatives not go along with the old, oh, well, the science has changed crap that they're trying to pull. | ||
| It's not going to work. | ||
| Because once again, Infowars has been here since before the mainstream media had even heard the word COVID or coronavirus. | ||
| We were here telling you what the virus was, telling you how this would change our society, telling you the way that it would be used to restrict your freedoms and bring about this tyrannical control. | ||
| We knew since the very beginning. | ||
| We've been shouting from the rooftops. | ||
| We've been ignored. But the fact that we've been here, the fact that we've been able to say this stuff is evidence and incontrovertible proof that what they were doing was We knew it was wrong from the beginning. | ||
| We knew it was bad from the beginning. | ||
| They must be held to account for this crime that they perpetrated on the people of the world. | ||

You're listening to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Alright folks, nuclear war on the horizon. | ||
| The Capitol Police being absolutely weaponized as a personal police force, a Praetorian Guard for Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden and the Democrats. | ||
| It's really, really getting hairy out there. | ||
| But of course, the major change recently has been the change of COVID policy. | ||
| They're starting to realize that everything that they pushed on us and didn't allow us to question and didn't have any... | ||
| They didn't broke a single conversation about this. | ||
| They mandated it. You submitted. | ||
| And that was the way it went. | ||
| And now they're deciding that, oh, everything that we did was wrong and bad and actually negative. | ||
| But it's not our fault and you can't blame us. | ||
| And actually, we were right at the time. | ||
| It's unbelievable they're trying to pull this off. | ||
| Unbelievable. And even their own media isn't falling for it. | ||
| I'll show you what I'm talking about. | ||
| First, here's Jen Psaki trying. | ||
| And get this. Try not to laugh here. | ||
| Jen Psaki saying that they never wanted lockdowns. | ||
| And actually, it was Anthony Fauci's idea the whole time. | ||
| And Joe Biden never wanted it. | ||
| Yeah. Yeah. | ||
| And we've always been at war with Eurasia. | ||
| And slavery is freedom. | ||
| And freedom is slavery. And this is Newspeak here live. | ||
| America 2022, Jen Psaki, big brother, telling us, you don't remember what you think you remember. | ||
| Don't believe your lying eyes. | ||
| Let's watch. Every step we can to lower gas prices for the American people. | ||

|
And then real quick on the Johns Hopkins study on the lockdown. | |
| It was this meta-analysis that came out of several studies. | ||
| Lockdown during the first wave of COVID in the spring of 2020 found that it only reduced COVID mortality by 0.2% in the U.S. and Europe. | ||
| And suggested they have little to no public health benefit, but severe consequences for the economy. | ||
| And it suggests that lockdowns shouldn't be a part of a future pandemic response. | ||
| Is that the shared view of the administration looking in the rearview mirror? | ||
| Well, I would say, I would first, of course, point you to our health and medical experts for specifics on this specific scientific study. | ||
| I would note that the president has been clear we're not pushing lockdowns. | ||
| We've not been pro-lockdown. | ||
| That has not been his agenda. | ||
| Most of the lockdowns actually happened under the previous president. | ||
| What our objective has been is conveying that we have the tools we need to keep our country open. | ||
| Thanks to the president's leadership and focus on fighting the virus. | ||
| And that's reflected in the fact that 98% of schools are open. | ||
| Over 210 million Americans are fully vaccinated. | ||
| We have the tools to avoid lockdowns and we're not moving back. | ||
| And that's our intention at this point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You guys do believe that the lockdowns were more harmful than helpful? | |
| Again, I would point you to our scientific experts on the specifics of a study, but the president's agenda, the president's approach has not been lockdowns. | ||
| It has been using the tools we have to prevent that. | ||
| Yeah, the Democrats have always been pro-opening up. | ||
| We've never supported lockdowns. | ||
| We never told anybody to wear masks. | ||
| You got the vaccine? Well, we always told you you should be very careful about getting the vaccine. | ||
| The temerity, the audacity of these people is really something to behold. | ||
| So... It was always your choice. | ||
| It was always up to you. | ||
| You were the one that took the risk. | ||
| And frankly, we thought it was a bad idea. | ||
| After all, we never mandated vaccines for us. | ||
| The White House has never been mandated vaccines. | ||
| The Congress has never been mandated vaccines. | ||
| And of course, Joe Biden was never pro-lockdown. | ||
| Unless, of course, you look into the past, which is what we're going to do here. | ||
| LA Times, March 28th, 2020. | ||
| Joe Biden calls for national lockdown to contain the coronavirus. | ||
| Former President Joe Biden is calling for an immediate nationwide stay-at-home order to contain the spread of coronavirus. | ||
| That's interesting. Biden COVID advisor says U.S. lockdown of four to six weeks could control pandemic and revive economy. | ||
| That's November 11th, 2020. | ||
| I would shut it down. | ||
| That's a quote from Joe Biden, saying that if scientists recommended, he would lock down the whole country to curb COVID-19. | ||
| COVID-19 question, was Joe Biden pro-lockdown or not? | ||
| This is in response to the clip you just heard, and it once again explains the numerous times Joe Biden and his administration blatantly promoted and supported and imposed lockdowns. | ||
| Fact check, false. | ||
| Joe Biden repeatedly promoted lockdowns during his 2020 presidential campaign, often calling on then-President Donald Trump to do more to contain the spread of virus by restricting movement and encouraging people to stay at home. | ||
| From lockdowns to Dr. Fauci, here's how President-elect Joe Biden plans to fight the coronavirus. | ||
| But, you know, don't worry. | ||
| Truth is slavery. | ||

You're tuned in to the American Journal with your host Harrison Smith. | |
| Watch it live right now at band.video. | ||
| Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Harrison Smith here. Infowars.com band.video coming to you live from the Infowars studio in Austin, Texas. | ||
| Very glad that you're here with us on this Wednesday morning. | ||
| It's 9.06 right now. | ||
| Now, we'll be welcoming Alex Cargill, who's on the ground in Ottawa, to talk about what is next for the Freedom Convoy as they convoy their way towards total victory and absolute humiliation for the Trudeau supporters in that government there. to talk about what is next for the Freedom Convoy Very excited to talk to him. | ||
| But, of course, there is a lot of other stuff to talk about. | ||
| We'll also be welcoming David Pine in the third hour of the EMP Task Force to talk about the looming threat of nuclear war with Russia. | ||
| So lots of fun stuff to look forward to today. | ||
| A lot of actually very well-informed and freedom-loving individuals to talk to. | ||
| But, of course, what we're talking about now is the sudden change of science. | ||
| Well, the science has changed, folks. | ||
| Because previously what they were saying with science was actually just modeling and baseless predictions by psychopathic tyrants who were using your fear to enslave you. | ||
| And now that the studies have been done and actual information has come in, we've found that all of the science they predicated our destruction on was utterly baseless, false, and fabricated from the very beginning. | ||
| Kind of like we told you. | ||
| Kind of like we told you so. | ||
| Yeah, just like that actually. | ||
| And we're going to cover this again, this opinion piece, which I think is... | ||
| I think it's actually by that Wynn woman. | ||
| Leanna Wynn or whatever her name is. | ||
| That creepy, smiling robot. | ||
| Leanna Wynn, if that's her name. | ||
| Sick and weird. You know, that woman... | ||
| We showed the video yesterday of the... | ||
| Human trafficker getting caught and being totally demonic. | ||
| But to me there's two types of demonic possession. | ||
| There's that type that's just like... | ||
| Just like evil, sick, just like literally growling and twitching. | ||
| But then there's the Leanna Nguyen demonic possession which is like... | ||
| Hi, yeah, we just want to take your baby from you. | ||
| We just don't think that you should be allowed to raise your baby. | ||
| So we're going to do it instead, okay? | ||
| And I'm just like, I don't know which one's more evil. | ||
| I don't know which one makes my soul revolt more than this type of demonic possession. | ||
| Or the Lena Wynn smiling, I'm being so nice as I tell you that I'm slitting your throat kind of demonic possession. | ||
| I don't know which is worse, really. | ||
| I think they're both equally demonic, bad, evil, sick and wrong. | ||
| And we'll get into that in just a moment. | ||
| But let's let the authorities do the talking here. | ||
| This is Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida, saying what's really going on here. | ||
| The masks and the vaccines, the science has not changed. | ||
| The political science has changed. | ||
| The political winds have shifted. | ||
| And that's why they're resetting their sales. | ||
| It has nothing to do with so-called vaccines. | ||
| Science. Let's watch Ron DeSantis break this down for us. | ||
| These kids are so much happier being able to go to school without having to wear masks for eight hours a day. | ||
| So when you start to see them kind of reevaluate or say all this, just understand this. | ||
| The science didn't change. | ||
| Well, the medical science didn't change. | ||
| The political science change. | ||
| They feel the heat. | ||
| They know that voters have been tired of perpetual lockdown policies. | ||
| They know that they have basically offered no off-ramp. | ||
| And they know that they're fixing to get whooped at the polls. | ||
| And so that's what's causing the epiphany. | ||
| But the fact of the matter is, if they had looked at the actual science from the beginning, they would have known that this was something that Florida was right on. | ||
| Yeah, he's exactly right there. | ||
| And it's almost impossible to use words to adequately express the horrific despotism that we've seen on display over the past year and the way that any attempt to have a dissenting voice to this, | ||
| to try to inject some sort of, some semblance, some modicum of Caution when imposing these sorts of things was shouted down and treated like you were a terrorist, quite literally. | ||
| And these people now, on purely political calculus, have decided to come to a new conclusion. | ||
| If we let them get away with us, it's our fault. | ||
| That's the point here, right? | ||
| They're going to try to get away with it, and we've known it the entire time. | ||
| I've been saying for the past two weeks, this is going to be the worst part about all of this. | ||
| It's not being right the whole time, but when the people who were wrong the whole time suddenly realize that you were right and just ignore it, just act like we're all discovering this together. | ||
| We're all just figuring this out. | ||
| And this article is perhaps the best, you know, most shiny example of what I'm talking about. | ||
| Again, from Washington Post. Opinion, in this next phase of the pandemic, beware of the extremes, they say. | ||
| Beware of the extremes in this next phase. | ||
| Once again, they say, the United States is at a turning point in the COVID-19 pandemic. | ||
| As infections fall, local and state officials are lifting mask mandates and a bipartisan group of governors is calling on President Biden to move away from the pandemic by providing an off-ramp for remaining restrictions. | ||
| These sensible actions have been met with anger, derision and opposition from both sides, with some claiming that these actions are proof the mandates were never needed and question the effectiveness of masking, vaccinations and other evidence-based mitigation measures. | ||
| See, that second part's true, but let's be very clear here. | ||
| In that last segment, I showed you a video of Jen Psaki responding to a study from John Hopkins University that showed, without the shadow of a doubt, that lockdowns imposed on the American people not only were completely ineffective with stopping the spread of the disease, but had massive effects. | ||
| Unrelenting and still to this day continually devastating consequences. | ||
| In all sorts of other regards, mental health, physical health, social cohesion, massive, massive, horrific, devastating consequences from the lockdowns that were imposed. | ||
| Do you remember, folks, are you able to cast your mind into the deep recesses of history a mere two years ago, when if you tried to point out that this was an obvious outcome of locking down the entire economy, you were shut up by every I think? | ||
| You want to talk about extremity? | ||
| You want to talk about extremes? You want to talk about extremists imposing their will? | ||
| That is exactly what happened for the first two years. | ||
| And now that it's been revealed that we were right the whole time, that they were wrong, and that their policies had the obvious consequence of these horrific negative outcomes, now they're asking that we not be so extreme. | ||
| Let's take it easy. They say both extremes are wrong. | ||
| Really, both extremes are wrong? | ||
| So you're saying that with the new John Hopkins study, with the new information they're finally admitting to about the mask, which, by the way, isn't new information. | ||
| It's the same information that we were referencing in March and February of 2020, saying this is why masks are necessary. | ||
| This is why masks don't work. | ||
| This is why masks are nothing more than a symbolic submission process. | ||
| Rolling over. I mean, it's the same information. | ||
| It's the same science. The science has not changed. | ||
| Okay, that's the point here. | ||
| And the point is that we were right the whole time. | ||
| So they come out and they're like, some people want us to stay in lockdown forever. | ||
| And some people say that the lockdowns were never effective, never necessary, and have had major... | ||
| Negative outcomes. And both are right. | ||
| Really? Both are right? | ||
| Really? Really? | ||
| No. No. One side has always been wrong. | ||
| And that's the side that has all the media and all the politicians and all the censorious big tech scumbags behind them censoring the detractors. | ||
| Okay? But they say both extremes are wrong. | ||
| We're both wrong. Can we just say that we're both wrong? | ||
| No. We're not going to... | ||
| No, we're not wrong. You were wrong the whole time. | ||
| We will now punish you for not only being so wrong in the face of obvious scientific evidence, but the fact that you censored and silenced those who were pointing out the truth to you the entire time. | ||
| They say public health policy is nuanced and complex. | ||
| And the sooner we acknowledge this, the quicker we can move from polarizing rhetoric to reasonable compromises that allow us to live with COVID-19. | ||
| If you had said this sentence in March of 2020, you would have been called a purveyor of disinformation and misinformation. | ||
| You would have been silenced. | ||
| You would have been kicked off of Twitter. | ||
| Now they want to have a reasonable conversation. | ||
| Now they want to find some sort of compromise. | ||
| It's exactly what we were saying two years ago. | ||
| If you think you're going to get away with this, you have utterly underestimated the outrage, fury, and righteous indignation you have inspired amongst the American people. | ||
| We've known this the whole time. | ||
| Thanks for catching up. | ||
|

|
We'll be right back. | |
| Alright folks, we will be connecting with Alex Cargill here in just a minute to hear what's happening on the ground there in Ottawa. | ||
| Get some answers to some of the conflicting messaging we've got from the leaders of the convoy. | ||
| That'll happen in 10 minutes. | ||
| Of course, then we'll be welcoming David Pine to talk about the threat of nuclear war looming over our heads that everyone in power seems to be doing everything they can to aggravate and encourage. | ||
| Yeah, so that's a very interesting topic. | ||
| And of course, there's still plenty to talk about the anti-white propaganda being published these days, the way the Capitol Police has been weaponized to be a secret police force for the Democrats investigating. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Okay. So again, they say both extremes are wrong. | ||
| They say public health policy is nuanced and complex. | ||
| And the sooner we acknowledge this, the quicker we can move from polarizing rhetoric to reasonable compromises that allow us to live with COVID-19. | ||
| And again, read Dr. | ||
| Scott Atlas's book because his whole deal with this, I'm blanking on the name of his book right now. | ||
| But of course, it's a good one because it's a narrative of a public health expert Being baffled, confused, and irritated by the way that not once in the buildup to COVID-19 and the lockdowns and mandates. | ||
| A plague upon our house. Yeah, a plague upon our house is what it's called. | ||
| book by Scott Atlas. | ||
| He talks about the fact that he tried to bring up the fact that there would be negative consequences to lockdowns and saying that when you are drafting a public health policy, it's not enough just to say, we'll do whatever it takes to get rid of this disease. | ||
| You have to take into account what other effects, what negative consequences are going to come from the lockdowns, from the masks. | ||
| Is the is the cure worse than the illness? | ||
| This was the question that Scott Atlas was asking and that many of us were asking, that all of us here at Infowars were screaming from the rooftops at the beginning of this, going, look, the lockdown, maybe it'll help stop the virus, but we don't think that'll even happen, and now we have evidence that it didn't, right? But regardless, there has to be some sort of Balance here. | ||
| You can't just shut down the entire country. | ||
| You can't just mandate masks on children for the rest of their lives. | ||
| There has to be some sort of balance. | ||
| There has to be some sort of nuance when drafting public policy. | ||
| That was our argument from the beginning. | ||
| That's why they called us disinformation spreaders. | ||
| That's why they called us misinformation outlets. | ||
| That's why they silenced and censored us because we were saying what they're now saying as if they're just coming to this realization. | ||
| It's outrageous, outrageous this turnaround they're making. | ||
| They say to begin, just because restrictions might now be lifted in many areas doesn't mean that they weren't needed before. | ||
| No, the scientific evidence shows that they weren't needed before. | ||
| These studies that have now gone on for two years and have shown without a shadow of a doubt, conducted by some of the most preeminent academic institutions in the world, have come to the conclusion that these measures that they took were completely unnecessary, completely ineffective, and hugely damaging. | ||
| So this is a lie, right? | ||
| What they're saying, just because we're rolling things back now doesn't mean that they weren't needed before. | ||
| No, they weren't needed before. | ||
| We knew they weren't needed before, and the scientific evidence proves they weren't needed before, which means you imposed it baselessly. | ||
| You imposed it without the scientific evidence that you were proclaiming that you had, meaning that you're a tyrant. | ||
| Meaning that now, as you try to roll it back, as you try to act like this wasn't all your fault, we're not going to let you do that. | ||
| And again, it's up to us. | ||
| If it was up to him, yeah, they'd roll it back a little bit and say, yeah, you know, whatever. | ||
| It's all totally fine. They'd ignore it. | ||
| So the next time something happens, they'll say, yeah, we need to do this again. | ||
| We need to do the lockdowns again, right? | ||
| Because just because we don't need them anymore doesn't mean we didn't need them before and that we're not going to need them in the future. | ||
| That's the argument this article is making. | ||
| So you have to bash them over the head rhetorically with this idea. | ||
| That this will never happen again. | ||
| That you will never get away with this again. | ||
| And you'll never get away with this again because you will not be in power anymore because you tried to get away with this the first time. | ||
| And we're not gonna let it happen. They say all of this explains why mask requirements were the right policy before and why masking can now move from a government-imposed mandate to an individual decision. | ||
| The masks don't work. | ||
| I don't know how many times you have to hear this. | ||
| I don't know how many studies have to be done. | ||
| I don't know how many times the CDC and the FDA and the WHO and Dr. | ||
| Fauci himself have to come out and say, yeah, masks don't work. | ||
| It's totally symbolic for you to get this through your skull. | ||
| But masks don't work. | ||
| They never worked. And we've known the entire time that they didn't work because we're relying on the same information that you're now relying on to say the science has changed. | ||
| Absolutely absurd. You say, if we want to preserve trust and respect for public health, well, let me stop you right there, Gina Noble. | ||
| Let me stop you right there. | ||
| You have destroyed that. | ||
| You have completely, completely given up any trust that the American people ever had in the medical establishment. | ||
| You did that in your drive to power. | ||
| You're going to blame us for that, right? | ||
| You're going to blame the people telling the truth the entire time for the fact that people don't trust the liars anymore. | ||
| That's what you're going to do, aren't you? | ||
| If we want to preserve trust and respect for public health, we need to pivot when data tells us we should. | ||
| Well, the data told you from the beginning that this was all a terrible idea. | ||
| The data that we were presenting from Infowars from the get-go showed that what you were doing would never work, did not work, would not work. | ||
| And of course, the vaccine doesn't work. | ||
| The vaccine is having massive, massive side effects. | ||
| The vaccine is in fact poison. | ||
| And does not help you prevent infection from Omicron from really any of them. | ||
| And that's the thing that, again, they're going to act like this is all just normal. | ||
| All totally normal, right? | ||
| PCR tests never worked. | ||
| Mask mandates never worked. | ||
| Lockdowns never worked. Barriers never worked. | ||
| Nothing that they ever suggested worked, except it did work very effectively in what their real mission was, which was to degrade the whole of humanity into a We called you on it before you even got going on it. | ||
| That's why they want to destroy us. | ||
| That's why they don't want us around. | ||
| That's why they kicked Alex Jones off in 2018. | ||
| They needed to pave the way. | ||
| They needed to pave the road. They thought we'd be gone. | ||
| They thought we'd be off the air. | ||
| They thought once they kicked us off of YouTube and Twitter and every other major platform and deleted our apps from the App Store and the Google Play Store and demonized us severely in the mainstream media and sicked the lawyers on us to bring about dozens upon dozens of Completely baseless lawsuits that drain our coffers. | ||
| They didn't think we'd be around to tell them the truth. | ||
| They thought they could impose all this and then when it was time to roll it back, go, yeah, nobody knew the whole time. | ||
| But unfortunately for them, we were here. | ||
| We knew. | ||
| We were telling you, which proves once and for all they were lying. | ||
| They don't have an excuse because we were here. | ||
| And we've only been able to be here because of the support we've gotten from the InfoWars audience. | ||
| And, folks, if you watch the Alex Jones Show, you know as much as I do about the behind-the-scenes stuff here at InfoWars when it comes to the lawsuits and the money stuff. | ||
| Like all I do is focus on the news. | ||
| I'm not a part of any of that. | ||
| It takes up a big, huge chunk of Alex Jones' day, unfortunately. | ||
| But I was watching the show yesterday and it was a little bit of a wake-up call for me to be like, wow, how many lawsuits are we about to face? | ||
| How many times are we going to have to fight for our existence in the next couple of months? | ||
| It's a bleak outlook, folks. | ||
| We have a very long and difficult fight ahead of us. | ||
| The only way we'll survive it is with funding from you from InfoWarsStore.com. | ||
| Whether it's a donation or whether you choose to get some of the supplies and some of the supplements and some of the storable food that we get, it's all at an amazing price. | ||
| But really the most important thing is that we have your support and that you have our back as we move into the most dangerous and devastating part of this information war. | ||

You're tuned in to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Watch it live right now at band.video. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, the American Journal for the past week has been the Trucker Convoy Report show as we've seen this massive and amazing peaceful protest truly shake the tyrants to their core and cause all sorts of trouble for those seeking to impose medical tyranny on the peace and freedom-loving people of Canada and the West. | ||
| Contingent on the ground there, our reporter in the field has been Alex Cargill. | ||
| You can find him on Twitter, at TransSplendor. | ||
| And I played his video earlier today, which was a true white pill yesterday. | ||
| I was very worried about the crackdown that the Ottawa police were threatening. | ||
| But Alex, your video really let me know that what was happening on the ground was not reflected in the sort of hysteria we were seeing on the internet. | ||
| Is that still the case? | ||
| Are spirits still lifted there in Ottawa? | ||
| Yeah, thanks for having me on, Brother Harrison. | ||
| The PSYOP is on everyone who's not in Ottawa. | ||
| It is way too easy. We trust anything virtual is in the hands of the enemy except for ban.video. | ||
| So everything that you want to scroll on every Google search you do is controlled by the Tech Lords and they are going to show you a spec of bad that they themselves created and have infinite motive to create and they are going to just dismiss the fact that this is the most peaceful gathering of people that has ever come together in Canada and there's no more amount of goodwill than you'll find them right down here and the truckers aren't scared and everyone feels helpless so they want to help us by going towards those most dire stories and reports that they're hearing which it costs the enemy nothing to produce I mean even our government paid subsidized journalists which is basically all of our MSN They can just say unconfirmed report and then send everyone through a little tizzy of a PSYOP to make them all despair-ridden and say, | ||

|
well, I guess it's over. I guess I'll stay on my couch forever and, you know, just wait for the next tyrannical dictate to drop. | |
| No. These truckers are the most impressive people I have ever met in my life. | ||
| They are very tough. They're very independent. | ||
| They don't want anything. It's hard for me to get their emails to send them money because they're like, nope, there's someone from the West Coast Convoy. | ||
| They drove farther than me. Don't give it to the New Brunswick Convoy. | ||
| They really have so much food. | ||
| There's so much love. There's children handing us these markers and pencil crayon cards that are just like, we love you, Freedom Convoy. | ||
| It's just a massive outpouring of love that you'll only see if you get down here. | ||
| But I would encourage people to stop treating this like a vacation. | ||
| I keep saying a trip to Aspen. | ||
| Where you bring your family down, you shake hands with the truckers, and you smile. | ||
| We would much rather have you elect the least provokable family member to come down here indefinitely. | ||
| Stay in your car. It's only getting warm. | ||
| The coldest days are behind us. | ||
| And we're going to stay until it's done. | ||
| Yeah, and that's what we're hearing. | ||
| I mean, there have been a bunch of changes in the last couple of days. | ||
| Of course, the Ottawa police said they were going to arrest people with fuel tanks. | ||
| We saw a ton of people showing up with empty fuel tanks just to troll them. | ||
| Then a judge reversed that order in Coots and some of these bridges. | ||
| There's been some back and forth. | ||
| But you're there on the ground in Ottawa. | ||
| We saw a video today of a purported leader of the convoy saying that he was picking up stakes and going to Toronto. | ||
| What is this about, Alex? | ||
| That apparently was just some misdirection play. | ||
| No one has any intention of moving. | ||
| Even the trucks on Wellington couldn't move if they want to. | ||
| The concrete barriers are up, locking them in. | ||
| So there's concentric circles of where the truckers are. | ||
| On the Wellington, they've got the main strip, which is those truckers are not leaving. | ||
| They're here for the long haul. Then you've got a police barrier of a couple of empty roads. | ||
| Then another police barrier, and then truckers galore just waiting and staying close to it. | ||
| But last night I've been told they did a slow roll, which is there's a court injunction to not blow any horns and not make any noise, which we've accepted because also the judge has accepted us as a legitimate protest. | ||
| So as long as we're not making noise, there is no reason for cops to come in and do this stormtrooper Gestapo operation on us to remove us. | ||
| So everyone's being quiet and well-behaved and obeying those dictates from the court injunction. | ||
| But they are driving south of a road, 417, I believe, to go honk their horns there where the injunction doesn't exist. | ||
| So they roll out. It looks fishy to some people. | ||
| And then the truckers add to that because no one's talking to them. | ||
| So I guess there's a bit of frustration they're venting by saying, you know what, we're not going to spread the truth with you guys. | ||
| But every trucker I've talked to, they're not going anywhere. | ||
| And this was maybe some misdirection report. | ||
| To scurry resources. | ||
| But I would like to say, so it's not happening. | ||
| If anyone's going to Toronto, it might be on the far outskirts where they can't even get close to downtown Ottawa because there are thousands of trucks that want to be front row at the Super Bowl for the revolution, and maybe they're best used getting front row in Toronto, front row in Quebec City, Calgary, Vancouver. So that might be happening. | ||
| I can only speak to what's happening close to Parliament. | ||
| But yeah, everyone's in great spirits and no one is going anywhere. | ||
| There's nothing they can do to scare us. | ||
| If they want to come in and unlawfully arrest people, then that's our destiny. | ||
| That's going to be used as the bad press sympathy generator. | ||
| I just want to say one more thing. Cut me off if there's a time issue here. | ||
| But there is a mass discrepancy between the three levels of government putting intense pressure on the upper levels of the police force. | ||
| But the police on the ground are... | ||
| Our best friends. They've never had an easier gig. | ||
| I heard Deputy Police Chief Bell saying, the morale of the officers is challenged. | ||
| And I'm like, how is it challenged? They've had the easiest gig ever. | ||
| We're all just going up, giving them hugs, asking them if they need anything, going and grabbing them coffees. | ||
| This has been the easiest detail they've ever been assigned to. | ||
| So it is just pressure from the top and the disconnect between the top rungs of the police and the rank and file is vast. | ||
| And it's going to be really hard for them to carry out draconian orders coming from corrupt politicians. | ||
| To move us because they love us. | ||
| And calling in 1800 extra officers might be the best thing because the longer you stay around us the more you realize that what you're seeing on your TV and the internet is a complete lie and we're totally peaceful and the crime rate is down 90% where we are. | ||
| It'd be down 100% if it wasn't for Antifa doing all these crimes on us where they'll tell the police that this trucker's crazy to get him out of his truck and then while that trucker is talking to the police they go around and they cut cables on the back of his truck just to damage and vandalize. | ||
| Wow. Yeah. And we played two videos earlier today of police officers saying they would not – really that their heart was broken by what they were seeing in Ottawa and that it totally changed the way they viewed their role. | ||
| And they're really upset by the fact that police were being used, I think he said, by, quote, paid thugs of the politicians. | ||
| So I think you're right. | ||
| The police are not in favor of this. | ||
| And it seems like people at the top are really scrambling to come up with a reason why they need to shut this down. | ||
| And I mean, how absurd is it, Alex, that they say these trucks are creating a lockdown situation? | ||
| The trucks mean people can't get to their jobs and can't get to work, and that's unacceptable. | ||
| I mean, are we in the twilight zone or what here? | ||
| Yeah, the truckers have been working with the police in every regard to the point where I'm like worried that, you know, we're accommodating them, we're moving, we're creating new access lanes if they ask for them, but then never being allowed back in. | ||
| So generally it might thin out Wellington Street, which is what you're seeing right now. | ||
| And I've seen some thinning out on Wellington because those truckers, maybe some of them, you know, got to the Super Bowl and they want to leave in the first quarter because they have a job to do back home. | ||
| But a lot of us just think there will be no job in the future once our economy is completely gutted. | ||
| And anyone that's seen the behavior of this government, they're going to make our dollar worth of peso within a year with the amount of gutting they're doing and increasing our debt to levels that are Yeah, and of course they have the support of the open communists as well. | ||
| I was just looking at this post from the Communist Party of Canada. | ||
| They say, make no mistake, the demands of this convoy, organized by the ultra-right, will do nothing to advance the working class. | ||
| While it pretends to be anti-system, its real purpose is to divide working people in order to protect the system. | ||
| Other than laughing at this utterly ridiculous statement, any response to the workers of the world unite? | ||
| It's nothing new. I mean, the people that watch news are in the mass formation psychosis because our mainstream news uses utter communists as their source. | ||
| And as we know, anything right or far left becomes a Nazi to them. | ||
| And people that don't have time to do the research will just believe it. | ||
| So yeah, I'm not surprised by any of that. | ||
| And yeah, if we're communists and white supremacists and all this, why is the only Nazi flag found being photographed by Trudeau's photographer and they ran right inside? | ||
| Because that flag would never last a second out on the streets with us. | ||
| You know, that's the amazing thing. | ||
| The only example I've seen of a swastika being drawn was on a Canadian flag saying Justin Trudeau is a Nazi. | ||
| Now, maybe, you know, people need to be a little bit more careful about the symbols they use because you have to know it's going to be used against you. | ||
| But it's like they take this argument that's like you're a Nazi because you're shutting us down and saying the Gestapo after peaceful protesters. | ||
| And they turn that around and say they're waving swastikas. | ||
| They must be Nazis. And then, of course, as you point out, This convinces a lot of people whose only source of information is the MSM. Of course, the good information can be found at Infowars. | ||
| Canadian media caught promoting Nazi false flag ahead of massive Ottawa protest arrest. | ||
| So, a very literal false flag taking place in Ottawa. | ||
| Just one of the tactics they're using to try to destroy this peaceful protest. | ||
| But it's not going to work. We'll be back on the other side. | ||
| More from Alex Cargill. | ||
| Follow him on Twitter at TransSplendor. | ||
| Get the real story from the ground, what's going on in Ottawa. | ||
| Support him and follow him to find out what's really happening on the streets. | ||
| Stay tuned. More from Alex on the other side. | ||
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| You know, as much as I try to follow, the Rebel News is doing a great job. | ||
| There are people there in Canada that are telling the truth about this, but my go-to source has been TransSplendor on Twitter, at TransSplendor. | ||
| That, of course, is my guest, Alex Cargill, who is there on the ground in Ottawa. | ||
| I want to ask you, Alex, what is going on on the... | ||
| political front. | ||
| Of course, you're there on the ground dealing with the actual protest on a daily basis. | ||
| Maybe you haven't had time to tune in to what's going on in your parliament. | ||
| But the story from Reuters says Canadian authorities scrambled to end protest against COVID measures. | ||
| We've showed videos today of Justin Trudeau really getting booed down in parliament as he tries to basically ignore and condemn this convoy. | ||
| What's happening on the Are liberals starting to break with Justin Trudeau like we've seen? | ||
| Do you have any idea what's going on there on the political side on where this protest goes to? | ||
| What victory lies ahead? | ||
| Yeah, I've got pretty much the same info that people within the PSYOP outside are seeing from Justin Trudeau. | ||
| These people are elites that stand on the balcony of the Hunger Games and they think of us as dirt and that we're nothing and that we just need to be shoved away by the police. | ||
| And they say words like they're working together. | ||
| But they say we're working with the three levels of government, municipal, provincial. | ||
| In no way are they talking to the truckers' delegation, which I don't even think is that important. | ||
| We don't need, in the elements of Sun Tzu, we've got the people with us, we've got the just cause in spades, and we've got the army, which is the truckers. | ||
| And now, if we had some advanced tactics to use, we might need a general in, you know, sending them the art of the deal negotiating handbook, but it's very simple. | ||
| The mandates are over and we leave. | ||
| There's nothing to discuss with these people, and I don't like When delegations are talking like, please come talk to us. | ||
| They don't need to. It's very simple. | ||
| You're not going to offer us a piece of it and then the masks stay on our kids, but we don't get injected. | ||
| It all ends and then we leave. | ||
| It is so simple that we don't need a general because all the army is being asked to do is exist peacefully right at the steps of Ottawa until this is done because we are not going back to that communist dystopian life that is descending on everyone and every country in the world is following suit and we are lighting people up. | ||
| The truckers are just Giving people a light in a time that has been nothing but darkness as we sit around on our heels waiting for the next thing to drop on us. | ||
| Now we're on our toes. I don't care if his cabinet is doing some kabuki theater. | ||
| I don't care if Justin is replaced. | ||
| These people will handle the political battle once the mandates end. | ||
| And I'll get into what I believe and what I think other people should believe. | ||
| But for now, this is not political. | ||
| It's political only in the sense that they're demanding you take these vaccines in the face of their own top doctors. | ||
| So they used to have this section of public health officials that don't listen to any science and science has been destroyed to them because as you guys know it's top doctor mountain and no science is admissible if it's vaccine hesitancy. | ||
| So the only thing they have is, we'll give you freedom back if you get injected. | ||
| But none of the two hitters, I call them, none of the people who took two jabs believe that anymore because they've already done it and they don't get their freedom back. | ||
| And the only thing that they've been asked now is, now that you're at 90%, hate them with me. | ||
| Join in me in hating this 10%. | ||

Let's fulfill this communist tactic that we use to turn you on each other. | |
| And Canadians aren't like that. | ||
| We're very tough people. He thinks that he's got an army of people against him. | ||
| There's a negative energy that pervades Canada of F. Trudeau and F. Oh, shoot. | ||
| Looks like we lost connection. | ||
| We're going to try to reconnect. All right. | ||
| You're back on now. Sorry, we lost connection with you there for just a minute in the middle of your very powerful rant. | ||
| But let me ask you this because it goes on to what you're saying that the mandates have to be removed permanently and then it's over. | ||
| And then you're good, right? | ||
| Well, it looks like Alberta's The premier, Jason Kinney, announced Tuesday that he was going to roll back some of his stuff, and this was portrayed as sort of a victory for the truckers that are there in Alberta. | ||
| But according to Jack Posobiec, he says, update, truckers reject Kinney's statement, say they want a permanent end-demand date, not a temporary one. | ||
| So I guess in this way, they're trying to offer you, well, we'll do a... | ||
| Temporary, a minor, you know, setback and then you'll go away. | ||
| And they're saying, no, we have our orders. | ||
| We have our demands. | ||
| You can either meet them or the protest continues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Can you speak to that? I'm just very proud of them. | |
| I'm very proud of them for doing that because they're absolutely right. | ||
| We've already had the illusion that Alberta will be free and all the Alberta separatists are speaking up saying, see Canada, we're all free, but it just takes another week and another variant before the top doctors say, nope, we've got to shut down again. | ||
| And my thing is, the next time we get a variant, because we haven't dealt with China, people still act like we're in the same reality where it was just a farmers market, it was just an accident, And they missed that point in history where they didn't react appropriately to it. | ||
| It's Fauci. It's gain of function. | ||
| It's your own government working with the Chinese to destroy you. | ||
| So the next time a variant comes up and they're going to try and lock down again, we're going to say, no, that doesn't work. | ||
| The Hopkins study has come in that said it only lowered by 0.2% all the measures that were taken. | ||
| And that's not counting the fact that all the things that the lives destroyed, the economies, the domestic abuse that's... | ||
| Been happening with all this, the kids and the suicide and the delayed cancer screens, they don't even factor that stuff in. | ||
| So if we get another virus and they're going to try and shut us down again, hell no. | ||
| We're not going to blame our freedom when another virus comes out just because we haven't dealt with Fauci and the Wuhan fridge. | ||
| We're going to blame Fauci and the Wuhan fridge for anything more deadly that comes out that they try and scare us with. | ||
| 100%. Absolutely 100%. | ||
| I'm very glad we're all on the same page here. | ||
| Now, there has been, you mentioned a little bit before, that there was some crime going on with Antifa, bugging y'all, just being annoying, basically working hand in hand, being the foot soldiers for the tyrants. | ||
| How's that happening on the ground and what lessons are y'all taking from that? | ||
| Well, they come out at night. | ||
| They dress like us. | ||
| They spray paint penises on the trucks and swastikas while the truckers are sleeping. | ||
| And then when the radios blare and all the truckers get out, they run into the subway or they run away wherever they're going and dress like us and put a Canadian flag on once they're around the corner. | ||
| I've seen the reports of dumpsters with bricks in them, and I'm like, that doesn't work. | ||
| There's no way Antifa ever attacks without a 10 to 1 numeric advantage, so you're worried about nothing. | ||
| But that's what the despair op is. | ||
| Everything is a despair op, and you lose if you feel sadness and you feel a reluctance to come to Ottawa because of all the despair they're shooting out. | ||
| And of course people are likening this to January 6th in the sense that they're going, look, it's a righteous protest, but it could be flipped on its head by bad actors. | ||
| Are people on the ground thinking about that? | ||
| The truckers are Jedi's. | ||
| The people I worry about are the weekend tourists who get done in by the PSYOP and they're all mad at cops because they see a cop strong-arming an old man outside what I call the bubble of jubilation, which is the area controlled by the truckers, where the mayor has turned anyone that will listen against us It's an occupation. | ||
| They're harassing us. Everyone knows the motivation is all on their side to pretend that we're violent. | ||
| And everyone on our side knows that we will gain nothing by any acts of aggression. | ||
| The truckers are Jedi's of calm. | ||
| You can run in their face. | ||
| You can say, loser, go home! | ||
| And they'll just start singing O'Canada to you and smiling. | ||
| That will never be won. | ||
| You will sink in that swamp of sadness if you get unhappy and you think, you all gotta come here for revenge, which is why I tell, if you're gonna send a family member down here indefinitely, make sure it's the most Spock-like figure in your house that is unprovokable, because we have all learned from January 6th. | ||
| We're not following anyone into any building. | ||
| I've even encountered an angry man who I later thought, you know what, that might be a police officer, because These guys, I've seen them in the hotel lobby shouting at staff going, you haven't delivered my coffee! | ||
| Why is Starbucks shut down? | ||
| You're trying to starve us out. And then I came back and I defended him. | ||
| I said, get in your elevator, relax. | ||
| And I regulated like everyone else does when someone acts up like this. | ||
| The next day I came back to that same hotel and I said, hey, what about that guy? | ||
| They're like, oh, thanks for sticking up to me. | ||
| That was a cop from out of town. | ||
| No way. Ideologically compatible cops to look and dress like us and get people mad. | ||
| But we're immune to it. We've learned from January 6th. | ||
| You guys didn't go through it for nothing. | ||
| We learned from that. And everyone's going to build on that. | ||
| And you guys will learn from that. | ||
| Well, that's a silver lining if I've ever heard one. | ||
| Absolutely amazing. I'm so glad that there are thought leaders like yourself on the ground there to keep calm and hope in some way to sort of shepherd everybody there. | ||
| I admit, if you watched the show yesterday, we sort of went through the same thing where it was like, what? | ||
| The police are coming? You have to fight back. | ||
| Then I was like, well, hold on. Actually, you need to be Gandhi-like. | ||
| You need to be MLK here. | ||
| You need to be chaining yourself. | ||
| If it comes to it, just whatever you have to do to remain peaceful and totally blameless and put all of the impetus on them to commit the violence. | ||
| I love. Explain that sentiment. | ||
| Yeah, just like I was saying, there's no use for your anger. | ||
| There's no use for your aggression. | ||
| If you're coming down here with any thoughts of revenge because the PSYOP worked on you of these isolated images of cops, I meet a hundred cops a day. | ||
| I say hi to all of them to gauge what the attitude is. | ||
| They're with us. They know that what's happening down here is completely peaceful and we have no motivation to commit any crime and we just want our freedom back. | ||
| You guys can stay in it. | ||
| You can wear your mask as long as you like. | ||
| You can inject yourself with Tide Pods. | ||
| You can do whatever you want. | ||
| We have all the scientific evidence on our side that this is a failed mandatory experiment, and that's a mad world. | ||
| And we're not living in a mad world because you'll never be happy. | ||
| Wow, absolutely brilliant stuff. | ||
| We have about one minute left in this segment. | ||
| I just want to ask you, to everybody out there, people watching this, supporters, detractors, people that want to get involved, what's your message? | ||
| My message is we need everyone down here that can come down here. | ||
| We don't need you down here for a weekend. | ||
| If anything's going to happen, it's going to be between the weekends when we're at low tide. | ||
| I don't think the cops will do anything because they're patriots like us. | ||
| I don't think the military will do anything because they're patriots like us. | ||
| So like I've told you in previous broadcasts, we're at the factor where this is Hitler in his bunker pushing around fictional armies getting very desperate and no one around Trudeau will tell them they're not We're not loyal to you. | ||
| We can order them to do this. | ||
| But the heart of Canada is with this movement and they want to be free. | ||
| And we don't care if you've got Chinese masters or international communists or pharma contracts or pictures of you doing something that will not allow you to do this. | ||
| They are not going home until we're free. | ||
| Wow. Absolutely brilliant stuff, folks. | ||
| That's Alex Cargill. | ||
| Follow him on Twitter at TransSplendor. | ||
| Again, that's at TransSplendor. | ||
| Go follow Alex Cargill. | ||
| Get the real truth about what's going on on the ground in that, what did you call it, the bubble of jubilation? | ||
| Bubble of jubilation created by the truckers. | ||
| Brilliant stuff. The trucker convoy striking fear into the heart of the globalist tyrants around the world. | ||
| Incredible stuff. Thank you so much for being on with us, Alex. | ||
| More on the other side. Stay tuned. | ||

| The Capitol Hill police exist for a single reason, to protect the Capitol, which is the home of our legislature, which is the heart of our democracy, our elected members of Congress. | ||
| But since January 6th, the Capitol Hill police force has been subverted by Nancy Pelosi, who oversees it, and Joe Biden, the new president, to become a kind of secret police force that acts on behalf of the Democratic Party. | ||
| Think we're overstating that? | ||
| We're not. Members of the Capitol Hill Police have been surveilling elected members of Congress, their staff, and visitors to their offices. | ||
| Republican Congressman Troy Nails of Texas said that Capitol Hill police officers entered his congressional office last year without his knowledge and then photographed confidential materials within the office. | ||
| Now, if you haven't worked on Capitol Hill or around it, it's hard to overstate how completely out of bounds that is. | ||
| In any other administration, under any other speaker, that would be considered a complete outrage. | ||
| Now, it's just par for the course. | ||
| Plainclothes Capitol Police officers from the department's, quote, intelligence division subsequently questioned one of the congressman's aides about what was on a whiteboard within his office. | ||
| On Twitter, the congressman wrote, quote, so why is the Capitol Police leadership maliciously investigating me in an attempt to destroy me and my character? | ||
| Congressman Troy Nils joins us now. | ||
| Congressman, thanks so much for coming on. | ||
| It's hard to overstate how shocking this story is. | ||
| These are the people who are paid to protect you, and they're spying on you, an elected member of Congress. | ||
| Speaking of an attack on our democracy, tell us why you think this happened. | ||
| Why were they in your office? | ||
| Well, first of all, thank you for having me, and I think it's very clear. | ||
| You know, Leader McCarthy selected me to be one of the five to be on the select committee looking into January 6th, and I've been a very vocal critic of January 6th, specifically the Capitol Police, the leadership of the Capitol Police, the intelligence section, and been very vocal about it. | ||
| I mean, all the intelligence was there. | ||
| It was glaring to them, and it was in their face that we knew the Capitol was the target. | ||
| For January 6th, we knew that there were maps that were scattered throughout the whole city about the tunnels on January 6th. | ||
| So all the intelligence was there. | ||
| They knew the extremist groups were going to be there, and they did nothing with it. | ||
| So I've exposed this, and I've been very vocal about it. | ||
| I've been vocal, too, even on your program a few months back about the death of Ashley Babbitt and questioning why Lieutenant Byrd's investigation did not go to a grand jury. | ||
| So this really doesn't surprise me, quite honestly. | ||
| I'm being targeted right now, and I believe that Nancy Pelosi is weaponizing the U.S. Capitol Police to investigate me, to try to silence me, intimidate me, and quite honestly, To destroy me. | ||
| This is totally third world and crazy, and it's hard to believe it's happening in the capital city. | ||
| By the way, I should note, their claim is they were trying to protect you, but of course they never told you about it. | ||
| If there was a threat, they should of course alert you. | ||
| You're the member of Congress. Why don't you shut these people down? | ||
| How can you have Nancy Pelosi's secret police force in your office and no one shuts them down? | ||
| Well, the claim is that they discovered one of my office doors wide open on a Saturday afternoon. | ||
| The officer entered my office and said, you know, to check to see if anybody was there that shouldn't be there, and saw suspicious writings on my whiteboard, where is where I draft my legislative proposals. | ||
| A couple days later, I've got these secret agents, secret agents from the Capitol Police, Knocking on my office door, questioning my staff, one of my staffers, as to the language on that board. | ||
| Why was there body armor written on your board? | ||
| Interrogating this staffer. | ||
| Asking him questions related to a handwritten map of the Rayburn office building, which is an office building for members of Congress, and the X on it. | ||
| I mean, absolutely silly, absolutely ludicrous. | ||
| Why were the Capitol Police inside my office investigating me? | ||
| And I was under a criminal investigation. | ||
| Absolutely incredible stuff, folks. | ||
| Again, this is Tucker Carlson interviewing Representative Troy Neils. | ||
| Yeah, silly and outrageous. | ||
| That's one way to describe it. | ||
| It's open despotism. | ||
| It's total tyranny. | ||
| They have weaponized the Capitol Police to spy on their political enemies. | ||
| This is the true death of the Republic. | ||
| Stay tuned, folks. We'll be right back with David Pine, expert on nuclear warfare, about what we can expect in our growing conflict with Russia over Ukraine. | ||
| He was right about where this was going a long time ago. | ||
| We'll see what he says now. | ||

|
Stay tuned. You're listening to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| My guest is David Pine. | ||
| He currently serves as the Utah Director of the EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security and as a member of the Secure the Grid Coalition. | ||
| Mr. Pine previously served as the National Security Policy Director for the United States Senator Mike Lee of Utah. | ||
| David served as a United States Army officer and worked as an International Programs Manager for Thank you so much for coming on, Mr. Pine. Thank you. | ||
| Appreciate being on the program. | ||
| Well, very happy to have you on, especially with some of the advancements that have been made recently with Russia vis-a-vis nuclear exchange with that country. | ||
| Now, you came on several months ago and had some pretty dire warnings or predictions as to what could possibly come if the... | ||
| You know, American administration were to bungle things. | ||
| I was hoping that your claims were overblown. | ||
| I was hoping that you were just giving us the worst case scenario and that we'd head down a better path. | ||
| But here we see now the headline from yesterday from Metro.co.uk. | ||
| Putin issues dire threat of nuclear war in Europe if he doesn't get his way. | ||
| So it looks like nuclear exchange is on the table. | ||
| What's the latest advancements in this conflict? | ||
| So, yeah, you're right. | ||
| The past week has been pretty alarming. | ||
| The U.S.-European Command recently raised its alert status to DEFCON 2. | ||
| We haven't seen that since the Cuban Missile Crisis. | ||
| Just to let your listeners know, the DEFCON system is pretty much a system that's designed to alert us as to the proximity of potential nuclear conflict. | ||
| DEFCON 1 would be nuclear war is imminent. | ||
| Our overall alert status, thankfully, is still at DEFCON 3. | ||
| At least the Biden administration is not expecting an imminent nuclear attack or close to a nuclear attack on the US. But with regards to Russian nuclear forces, they have made a threat that if we didn't accept their draft security agreement or something close to it, They would respond with what they call military technical measures. | ||
| Now, I looked into what the term military technical measures refers to with Russian experts, and they essentially said that referred to the forward deployment Of heavy military equipment up to and including nuclear weapons. | ||
| Just yesterday, there was a report that MiG-31K foxhounds have been deployed with Kinzhal nuclear hypersonic missiles, actually air-launched ballistic missiles, something the U.S. doesn't have. | ||
| They've been deployed to Russia's Kaliningrad Enclave, which borders on Poland and Lithuania, with the range to nuke all of Europe's main capitals, Paris, Berlin, London. So that's certainly concerning. | ||
| Then just this morning we had reports that the Russians have moved up their nuclear self-propelled artillery systems, They have two. | ||
| They have a 203-millimeter self-propelled nuclear artillery system that has a range of 23 miles. | ||
| That's the maximum range. | ||
| And then a 240-millimeter self-propelled mortar with a range of about 12.5 miles. | ||
| So that would indicate that they're keeping their options open for the use of tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine and strategic nuclear weapons or strategic I'm glad you're giving some clarification on that because when most people think of nuclear bombs, | ||
| they think of the city destroying massive blotting out of an entire area. | ||
| But as early as the Korean War, at least the US Army and of course the Soviet Army were experimenting with these tactical nukes that would actually be used on the battlefield with very limited range. | ||
| Is Russia even talking about doing the strategic City-leveling type nuclear missile, or are they specifically just talking about the tactical nuclear weapons that may be deployed on the battlefield against soldiers? | ||
| Are they talking about both of these, or is there any confusion with that? | ||
| So, earlier on, just two to three weeks ago, they did threaten Washington, D.C. with a nuclear attack. | ||
| So, they've stated that they would deploy nuclear A nuclear missile submarine armed with hypersonic nuclear missiles off the coast of Virginia, essentially within a 200-mile range of our nation's capital. | ||
| President Putin has said within the last two years, he stated that That Russia had the ability to take out Washington, D.C. before the President of the United States could even get on the plane. | ||
| That was just within the last year since Biden became president. | ||
| So Russian media has reported that one to three Russian nuclear missile submarines have been deployed off of our coast within 500 miles. | ||
| It's unclear whether those reports are accurate. | ||
| Sometimes Russian media, you know, We're good to go. | ||
| Some threats of potential nuclear attack on the United States. | ||
| They've talked about, perhaps, forward-deploying medium-range nuclear missiles to Cuba and Venezuela. | ||
| Venezuela would only have the ability to threaten the state of Florida, essentially, just beyond that. | ||
| But a deployment in Cuba would have a much A much longer range within the southeastern United States. | ||
| But really, I don't think that that's really going to happen. | ||
| I don't really see that. We're in a very different position than we were in 1962, when Russia really had very few strategic range nuclear missiles. | ||
| Today, they have thousands of warheads That can range the United States, and so they don't require forward-deployed intermediate or medium-range missiles in Cuba and Venezuela. | ||
| Wow. So, and of course, you know, you've talked about the unpreparedness of America if this were to be the case. | ||
| I mean, we have basically no defense against this, right? | ||
| I mean, this is something that you've talked about quite a bit and encouraged people that we need to have better missile defense here in America. | ||
| Are we just sitting ducks here if Russia decides to press the big red button? | ||
| I mean, is there anything that we can do? | ||
| Well, there isn't a whole lot we can do. | ||
| So we do have 44 ABMs deployed in the western United States, but those don't provide us any defense against Russian ICBMs. | ||
| Russian ICBMs would travel above the Arctic Circle. | ||
| And that's where we have our early warning systems deployed. | ||
| But our current missile defenses are deployed primarily against North Korea, which has a much more minimal threat in terms of nuclear missiles than Russia or China, with a limited capability against China. | ||
| The reason I know that is because I worked at the Missile Defense Agency many years ago. | ||
| We also have hundreds of SM-3 ABMs which are deployable. | ||
| It's unclear as to whether they're actually deployed on our Aegis cruisers and destroyers. | ||
| Now those have a lot more potential because you can move them around. | ||
| They do have a boost phase intercept capability. | ||
| So, it would be my hope that those ships are being deployed kind of near Russia, you know, right now, given the increased nuclear threat as exhibited by the European Command's decision to raise its alert status at Dekkon 2. | ||
| And again, I hate to just be a doom and gloomer here. | ||
| We're not trying to scare people here, but as outrageous and sort of outlandish as these claims sound, when you listen to the way Putin's rhetoric has escalated recently and you look at the way that America is treating Russia and the way these demands are going back and forth, it's suddenly not out of the realm of possibility. | ||
| And so that means it's something that needs to be considered by our leadership. | ||
| We need to take very seriously. | ||
| Even if it seems far-fetched now, it may not be so. | ||
| You know, a lot of people on our side are just going, oh, Ukraine's just a distraction. | ||
| It's like it might be a distraction now, but it's also a distraction they could easily turn into something very devastating and dangerous for all of us. | ||
| So we need to be keeping an eye on it. | ||
| When we get back on the other side, I'm going to ask Mr. | ||
| Pine about some of the... Quotes that Putin has made recently, as well as his interaction with President Macron of France, as it looks like European leaders, some are coming to America, some are coming to Russia, they're sort of stuck in the middle of this. | ||
| They're trying to figure out what's going on as well. | ||
| David Pine on the other side. Stay tuned. | ||
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| My guest is David Pine, director of the National EMP Task Force. | ||
| You can find their website at emptaskforce.us. | ||
| He's an expert in nuclear warfare, which is convenient because it seems like we may be on the cusp of such a thing. | ||
| Now, last time we talked to Mr. | ||
| Pine, it was just before a summit between Russia and American leaders. | ||
| And of course, we covered that summit. | ||
| We showed some clips of statements made following the summit. | ||
| But we're sort of still at a loss to go, okay, we've had this summit. | ||
| Did the summit raise temperatures or lower temperatures? | ||
| Are we closer to peace or closer to war? | ||
| It didn't seem like much was accomplished with it. | ||
| What has been the outcome of the talks between America and Russia? | ||
| So the initial talks were held in Geneva between our Deputy Secretary of State and their Deputy Foreign Minister And that was on January 10th. | ||
| But unfortunately, it didn't really provide any concrete results. | ||
| Essentially, what we did is we read a statement articulating our position with regards to every one of the demands that they articulated in their security agreement that they proposed for the US and NATO. And so I think the Russians were very unsatisfied with how that went. | ||
| And that was followed up with Meeting with NATO, the Russian NATO Council, and then a meeting at the OSCE, Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe. | ||
| Shortly thereafter, the Russians said, we don't see any need for further discussions or negotiations at this time. | ||
| So I was a little alarmed by that because I really hope that, you know, typically when we see negotiations progressing, then that gives us a lot of hope of avoiding all-out conflict and war. | ||
| In this case, I think the Russians are, you know, they have resumed negotiations and they're resuming them Not just with the U.S., but with individual NATO countries. | ||
| They're having discussions with France and Germany, and they have included Ukraine in those discussions. | ||
| They're having meetings with Hungary and with Italy. | ||
| And so what they are trying to do is, of course, they want to divide NATO. And these types of discussions are one way to do that. | ||
| Germany, for example, has no intention of providing any military assistance or They don't participate in any conflict against Russia. | ||
| They want to have good relations. | ||
| They don't see a need for a Russian invasion in Ukraine in the event it materializes to include any military measures on their end. | ||
| So that is a major crack in NATO that's been discussed. | ||
| Of course, after World War II, Eisenhower essentially reeducated them to be a bunch of self-loathing pacifists. | ||
| Which is unfortunate, because if we had followed Patton's call, and this is getting kind of into another area in terms of historical mistakes, but if we had followed Patton's call to rebuild Germany economically and militarily to help balance out Russia and the Soviet Union, Then we'd be in a very different place right now. | ||
| Germany would still be a great power with nuclear weapons along the lines of UK and France and could help us counterbalance the Russian threat. | ||
| Yeah, the Cold War would have looked very different. | ||
| Of course, the classic saying, those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. | ||
| That's, I guess, what we're trying to avoid here. | ||
| But I did think, I thought it was very strange. | ||
| On Monday, you had two simultaneous headlines. | ||
| France's Macron flies to Moscow in bid to ease Ukraine tension. | ||
| At the same time, you had the German Chancellor going to Washington to meet with Joe Biden. | ||
| So, I mean, this seems symbolic to me. | ||
| It's Europe stuck in the middle trying to deal with these two superpowers and trying to find some sort of balance between them, I guess. | ||
| France going to Russia, Germany going to America. | ||
| I mean, is Europe just sort of biting their nails and waiting to see how all this plays out? | ||
| I think everyone's starting to realize how deadly serious this is. | ||
| You know, there were some leaked discussions between President Biden and Ukrainian President Zelensky in which he basically said, you know, a Russian invasion is imminent. | ||
| The Ukrainian capital of Kiev may be sacked. | ||
| You know, prepare for impact. | ||
| And of course, they deny that because it's in, you know, the Ukrainian president's political interest to downplay the Russian threat because that hurts his reelection prospects. | ||
| So it's kind of a really interesting dynamic and unfortunate, I think, for Ukraine because Obviously, if war is coming, they have two options. | ||
| They can do the smart thing, which is to pursue a more aggressive diplomatic solution that Russia would find more acceptable, such as proclaiming their permanent neutrality, that they'll never join NATO, and that they'll pursue policies that are more amenable to Moscow. | ||
| That would be the wisest thing to do. | ||
| But secondarily, if they didn't do that, they'd want to buttress their defenses. | ||
| Obviously, mobilizing their military would be ideal from a military perspective, but it would also be very provocative and would likely be used as the main pretext for a Russian invasion. | ||
| Because what Russian state media keeps talking about is the U.S. is sending ballistic missiles or cruise missiles Tomahawk cruise missiles that can be fired from the land. | ||
| We really don't have any Tomahawk missiles that have been operationally deployed to do that. | ||
| We have the potential to do that, but we currently don't have those. | ||
| A lot of the pretexts that Russia has been talking about are really just pretexts for war. | ||
| I don't know that there are actually security concerns. | ||
| Russia does have legitimate security concerns, and we need to recognize that, but a lot of the things that they're saying just aren't on the table. | ||
| Ukraine is not going to join NATO, probably ever. | ||
| And it's really disappointing that the Biden administration can't simply state the facts and state that, yes, NATO has an open-door policy for Sweden and Finland, which is acceptable to Russia, but not for additional former Soviet republics, because France and Germany would never agree to the inclusion of NATO in Russia. | ||
| You know, at any point in the foreseeable future because they realized that that would, you know, serve as a major provocation to Russia as we see today. | ||
| Yeah, and then, of course, you were talking during the break about the B-52 bombers that have been sent to the UK. That seems like another provocation on our behalf. | ||
| Can you explain that? Yeah, so the Biden administration is of two minds. | ||
| In other words, there's two factions within the senior levels, senior ranks of the administration. | ||
| One of them are kind of realists, more like me, that are kind of Trying to emphasize that this could escalate to the nuclear level with Russia. | ||
| We don't want to take those risks. | ||
| We need to pursue an aggressive diplomatic solution, meet them halfway. | ||
| Then there's the other faction, which consists of liberal internationalists. | ||
| What I call Atlanticists, and those are basically people that believe NATO is the end-all be-all of U.S. national security. | ||
| It's the cornerstone of U.S. national security. | ||
| We can never compromise on NATO. And they actually believe that the 30-member NATO alliance is essentially our secret weapon against Russia, even though most of the NATO members are small countries like Montenegro, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, you know, countries that really have no real military potential. | ||
| But what they decided to do is kind of pursue half measures. | ||
| They've sent 3,000 additional U.S. troops to Eastern Europe, to Poland and Romania. | ||
| These are troops that really can't make a military difference, mostly light infantry from 82nd Airborne Division that are poorly armed and would serve as little more than a tripwire or a speed bump on the road that would essentially guarantee that we went to war with Russia if they were to invade Poland or Romania. | ||
| It's something we don't want. | ||
| We don't want to have our hands tied that we have to go to war with a nuclear superpower that has over four times more nuclear weapons than we do. | ||
| I'd love to avoid that, Mr. | ||
| Pine. We'll be right back on the other side. | ||

Don't go anywhere, folks. You're tuned in to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | |
| Welcome back, folks. | ||
| Again, my guest is David Pine, director of the EMP Task Force, National EMP Task Force. | ||
| You can go to his website, emptaskforce.us. | ||
| And of course you were watching the Alex Jones show yesterday. | ||
| You know the main topic he was on was this threat by Vladimir Putin. | ||
| Here's what he said, quote, I want to stress it one more time. | ||
| I've been saying it, but I very much want you to finally hear me and deliver it to your audience in print, TV, and online. | ||
| there will be no winners. | ||
| Do you understand it or not that if the Ukraine joins NATO and attempts to bring Crimea back by military means, the European countries will automatically be pulled into a war conflict with Russia? | ||
| So it seems like Putin is frustrated at the media for not reporting. | ||
| His threats basically saying, look, this is unacceptable to the Russian people, this encroachment on our borders that the Biden administration is spearheading and that the rest of NATO seems to be complicit in. | ||
| He's like, we can't allow this to happen and we want people to know the threat that they're under with these actions by their government. | ||
| What's your interpretation of this, Mr. | ||
| Pine? So, Russian President Vladimir Putin is very much into returning Russia to its kind of superpower status, Soviet glory days. | ||
| He wants to restore Russian control over all of the former Soviet Union and have, if not a sphere of influence over Eastern Europe. | ||
| To have Eastern Europe essentially be kind of neutralized or demilitarized in terms of no U.S. or NATO forces being allowed in Eastern Europe. | ||
| But the fact is Russia is a superpower. | ||
| It's one of the three nuclear superpowers on Earth. | ||
| China has achieved nuclear superpower status in addition to being an economic superpower that has manufacturing capability almost twice as large as our own. | ||
| Russia and China are allies. | ||
| They've recently expanded their alliance, made it even closer with this recent proclamation and renewed security pact that they issued in advance of the Olympics in Beijing. | ||
| So, Putin's feeling very confident. | ||
| But in terms of Ukraine, there really hasn't been a lot of new action in Ukraine. | ||
| The last action, of course, was the Russian invasion of Crimea, and then the Russian separatists that have taken over, proclaimed their own autonomous republics within Ukraine. | ||
| So there's no renewed threat. | ||
| It's just the fact that Putin is ready. | ||
| He's completed Russia's nuclear modernization. | ||
| Certainly there have been some provocations on the Ukrainian side where Ukrainian President Zelenskyy was elected. | ||
| To find a compromise with Putin. | ||
| And given the change in Ukraine's nationalist sentiment, he's kind of felt pressured to tow a much more anti-Russian and pro-NATO line. | ||
| It's really unfortunate because this conflict may erupt. | ||
| We may have a full-scale war with Russia just because, you know, ultimately because, you know, Biden, President Biden refuses to admit, you know, what I said is obvious, and that is NATO will never be expanded into Ukraine because France and Germany vetoed it and that is NATO will never be expanded into Ukraine because France and Germany And they'll continue to veto it because it would be much too great of a provocation to Russia. | ||
| And in addition to that, Ukraine doesn't even meet the requirements for joining NATO because it has disputed territory and foreign troops within its borders, which could potentially put, you know, Russia and NATO at war on day one of a Ukrainian ascension Russia and NATO at war on day one of a Ukrainian ascension And explain to us why Crimea is so important to Russia. | ||
| Like, do they even really care about Ukraine that much? | ||
| Or is it more about the threat to Crimea? | ||
| And should that go into the hands of a NATO controlled Ukraine? | ||
| Is it about Is Ukraine going into NATO or is that just a stepping stone towards Crimea? | ||
| And one thing I didn't know about Crimea until I was studying it recently, Crimea is only part of Ukraine because in 1954, I think it was Khrushchev, just gave it to you. | ||
| He was from Ukraine. He said, I want Crimea to belong to Ukraine now. | ||
| So this was a dictate, you know, just an order by Fiat from a communist leader in 1954. | ||
| The history of this is all kind of convoluted and muddled. | ||
| So is it really just about Crimea and why is Crimea so important? | ||
| No, it's not about Crimea at all. | ||
| So, Crimea was taken as kind of the first step of Putin's annexation as planned to restore the old Soviet Union because it's two-thirds Russian, two-thirds ethnic Russian. | ||
| So, if they were a nonpartisan, internationally observed plebiscite for Crimea, they would most certainly vote overwhelmingly to remain part of Russia. | ||
| Russia is the next Crimea. | ||
| They certainly have legitimate reasons to do that. | ||
| It wasn't aggression from our standpoint. | ||
| I understand that the U.S. government condemns that. | ||
| But in terms of Ukraine, initially it was a little murky in terms of what President Putin wanted from Ukraine. | ||
| You know, when he massed this huge invasion force, which has gotten up to, I think, around 159,000 Russian troops, to my estimate, on four different sides, on each side of Ukraine, in terms of, you know, the West, the North, Belarus, the East, and the South, and Russia and Crimea. | ||
| And, you know, those troops Essentially, a recent report that went public, General Milley briefed to members of Congress and said, we estimate that the Russians could take Kyiv, | ||
| the Ukrainian capital, within three days at the cost of only 4,000 Russian troops dead, probably 50,000 Ukrainians dead, and that would likely cause 5 million Ukrainian refugees fleeing the Russian advance. | ||
| But we also had a UK report that leaked that what Putin is planning is to overthrow, is to capture the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, and then to overthrow the Ukrainian government and install essentially a Russian puppet government, | ||
| puppet president. There was actually a list of specific Ukrainian leaders, most of which are in exile in Russia, including, I think, two former acting prime ministers. | ||
| One was actually a prime minister, a first deputy prime minister, and then a current Ukrainian member of Their parliament, which is also kind of a media tech, owns a couple of media channels that are currently banned in Ukraine for being too pro-Russian. | ||
| So I think that's ultimately what Putin's endgame is. | ||
| He wants to transform Ukraine into a loyal Russian satellite like Belarus. | ||
| And that would include a union state treaty, where there'd be kind of a confederation agreement, An agreement where, you know, Russian nuclear and military forces could be deployed within Ukraine at any time, whether they are ever withdrawn. | ||
| I don't think they ever will be once they evade. | ||
| But they would have free reign to, you know, travel to Ukraine's western border, for example. | ||
| And so I don't think Russia is planning to annex additional Ukrainian territory at this point. | ||
| But he certainly, you know, regime change is really the ultimate objective for Russia at this point. | ||
| I mean, isn't that sort of what we already have? | ||
| I mean, isn't Ukraine in a lot of ways kind of an American puppet state at this point? | ||
| I mean, there was the leaked call about, that was Victoria Nuland, who's still in the mix, sort of bringing all this about. | ||
| There was a leaked call a few years ago where she and another ambassador to Ukraine were sort of picking and choosing who they wanted to be president of Ukraine and manipulating the politics of Ukraine that way. | ||
| So basically, is Ukraine just sort of in the process of exchanging one puppeteer for another? | ||
| I don't really believe the Russian propaganda that Ukraine is a U.S. puppet state or puppet regime. | ||
| In fact, if you go back to 2014, the color revolution that overthrew the pro-Russian president would have been easily avoidable had they been willing to use force against the protesters. | ||
| It was eerily reminiscent of what happened in the fall of the Soviet Union when the Kremlin could easily have used force to keep the Soviet Union together. | ||
| There was clearly a decision that had been made that If not to collapse the Soviet Union by the Kremlin itself, that they wouldn't object to that. | ||
| So given that that happened in Ukraine, it seems to me that Putin actually wanted to collapse the pro-Russian government. | ||
| But it was really great. | ||
| It was all the program. | ||
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is the American Journal. | ||
| Infowars.com, band.video. | ||
| Infowarsstore.com is where we go to support this program and everything that we do here, including the great guests that we get, including my guest now, Mr. | ||
| David Pine, director at the National EMP Task Force. | ||
| The website is emptaskforce.us. | ||
| And I'm sorry you got cut off there by the commercial break on that last part, but to me it seems like, and so I want you to continue with this, With the thought and what it seems to me is that American elites are obsessed with Ukraine. | ||
| Basically because they're corrupt and they want, you know, control over Ukraine. | ||
| You're saying it's maybe not quite that clear cut and there are different interests at play here. | ||
| I wanted you to continue with that thought, please. | ||
| You bet. So you're absolutely right when you say that the Biden administration, the Biden family, obviously has very corrupt ties to Ukraine. | ||
| You know, Biden did a quid pro quo that, you know, really an impeachable offense as vice president to, you know, threaten U.S. aid to Ukraine to cut off, in the words of The Democrats who impeached Trump, he threatened to cut off aid to a U.S. ally, which Ukraine never has been, but the Democrats impeached Trump on that basis. | ||
| And so, yeah, there are those corrupt ties. | ||
| But again, President Zelensky of Ukraine was elected as a candidate that was going to compromise with Russia and to try to implement the Minsk Accords. | ||
| And find a way to end the conflict with Russia. | ||
| So I don't think he is a U.S. puppet. | ||
| Certainly he's become a lot more pro-U.S., a lot more anti-Russian and pro-NATO. And that's certainly been a major provocation for the current crisis where Putin ordered the Russian military to prepare to invade Ukraine in late 2020. | ||
| But I wanted to go back to your kind of bumper music, really And in scenes of U.S. nuclear bombers, I think was very appropriate because the Biden administration has deployed B-52 nuclear bombers to the United Kingdom. | ||
| And in response to that, I believe, just yesterday, I think we discussed this during the break, Russia's deployed MiG-31K foxhounds Long-range fighters that carry the Kinzhal nuclear hypersonic air-launched ballistic missile that could have the ability to destroy all of Europe's major capitals, Berlin, Paris, Rome, and London. | ||
| And they have, you know, they carry huge nuclear warheads that are 500 kilotons in throw weight. | ||
| So they've also deployed nuclear self-propelled artillery to the Ukrainian border. | ||
| So they're threatening a potential You know, tactical nuclear weapons against usage against Ukraine and also sending a message to NATO that, you know, if you dare intervene militarily, we can destroy your capitals in a matter of minutes. | ||
| Wow, so very much playing with fire here in a dangerous situation we find ourselves in. | ||
| Of course, Ukraine is between a rock and a hard place in the most literal sense. | ||
| And, you know, I want to touch on another story about North Korea since you're here and there's some stories about nuclear North Korea that came out today and hit the headlines. | ||
| So just to finish up with Ukraine... | ||
| What's your advice to our leadership? | ||
| What's your advice to the American leadership? | ||
| They find themselves in this quagmire. | ||
| Things are accelerating. | ||
| Things are getting worse. These really incendiary threats coming from Putin. | ||
| What should we do, in your professional opinion? | ||
| So I wrote an article about this. | ||
| I think that's kind of the article that caused you to decide to interview me on this program. | ||
| But my most recent article in the National Interest at www.nationalinterest.org It talks about how a Russian invasion of Ukraine would go, that it would be preceded by a cyber attack. | ||
| And then it really talks about the most important thing that we need to do is not to escalate after a Russian invasion of Ukraine. | ||
| And that's kind of the path we're on, unfortunately. | ||
| It's really important that we try to de-escalate. | ||
| We need to be trying over time to de-escalate now, but after we invade, The typical reaction is just an escalation that expands the conflict. | ||
| Your listeners need to realize that the origins of the two world wars was that these great power alliances transformed two regional conflicts into world wars that cost the lives of tens of millions. | ||
| Unfortunately, that's the path that we're on. | ||
| Now, Biden has been smart. | ||
| He did follow my advice on one issue, and I need to give him credit for that. | ||
| He said repeatedly that the U.S. will not intervene militarily in Ukraine. | ||
| That's very important. | ||
| We should do the same thing with regards to Taiwan to avoid an unnecessary war with China over Taiwan. | ||
| But he's failed to admit that we actually have 300 U.S. troops in Ukraine right now as military trainers that could potentially, if they were all to be killed or captured, along with up to 15,000 U.S. citizens in Ukraine, | ||
| or if U.S. flights, planes carrying You know, arms to Ukraine were shot down, or if cyber attacks were to be exchanged, as likely seems the case—Russia's threatened to launch major cyber attacks against the U.S. and Biden's kind of threatened to do the same thing—then you can easily see how things could escalate to full-scale war with Russia. | ||
| Now, I do want to clarify, I do not believe that That a war with Russia would be primarily nuclear. | ||
| I think it would be primarily a cyber war, an EMP war. | ||
| We've talked about super EMP weapons. | ||
| I think that the number of nuclear weapons would be limited to perhaps A dozen at most that would hit our nation's capital and various, you know, the strategic bomber bases, our nuclear missile submarine bases. | ||
| But nuclear would not be the prime threat that we need to worry about. | ||
| EMP would be the greatest threat. | ||
| That we would likely face in a war with Russia. | ||
| Right. And it would be devastating regardless. | ||
| Yeah. And as you mentioned, I mean, these entanglements with our allies from World War I to World War II to the Cold War, it seems like all of history is screaming at us to avoid this conflict at all costs. | ||
| And hopefully the Biden administration will heed its warnings. | ||
| And again, you can find that story at nationalinterest.org, how Biden should respond to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. | ||
| Nationalinterest.org is where you find that story. | ||
| Just quickly here, in the last couple minutes that we have with you, since you are the resident nuclear expert here, we see two stories today. | ||
| North Korea says it can shake the world with missiles able to hit the U.S. North Korea issues dire warning to U.S. What do you make of this here in just the last couple minutes? | ||
| So I predicted in one of my earlier national interest articles that if we do go to war with Russia or China, that it'll automatically involve the other nuclear superpower and likely North Korea. | ||
| So it would likely be a simultaneous conflict or near simultaneous. | ||
| In other words, if Russia invades Ukraine, Then within probably three to four weeks, China would invade Taiwan, North Korea would invade South Korea, and we perhaps could even see Iran invade Iraq. | ||
| So we could actually have a three- or a four-front war. | ||
| And of course, that really would make it difficult for the US to respond effectively to any one of those four invasions and aggressions. | ||
| It's really a nightmare scenario, and that's why it's so important that we aggressively pursue diplomatic action, most especially a treaty of good neighborliness and friendly cooperation with Russia that would essentially neutralize their alliance with China and establish the tripolar international order that I've long advocated as a much safer and secure world for the United States. | ||
| So that's important. | ||
| We need to withdraw our troops from Eastern Europe, from East Asia, perhaps with the exception of Japan and the Middle East. | ||
| That would greatly reduce tensions and the possibility of unnecessary war with Russia and China. | ||
| Which, as I mentioned, are allies along with North Korea and Iran. | ||
| Yeah. Wow. Very dangerous precipice we find ourselves on. | ||
| Hopefully, we can trust the adults that are in charge and handling this correctly, which is a whole different pile of worms to deal with. | ||
| But, wow, incredible stuff. | ||
