You're listening to the American Journal with your host Harrison Smith.
Watch it live right now at band.video.
harrison smith
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the program.
This is your host, Harrison Smith.
You're watching American Journal on band.video and Infowars.com.
Or maybe you're watching on Rumble, or maybe you're watching on Getter.
And I hope you are, because as I understand, the band.video chat is still down.
You can still stream at band.video.
You can still watch it and share those links.
And we hope you do. But...
For chat purposes, we are going to be looking at the Rumble chat and the Getter chat during the show now.
So I'm excited now to have, once again on my little screen here, a feed, two feeds now of live show chat.
So if you don't have time to call in or if you're surreptitiously watching during work and...
If you can't get on the phone, then just type into the chat on Rumble or Getter and I'll see it and be able to respond.
We have a lot of stuff to talk about today.
We're going to talk a little bit about China and the economic collapse it's experiencing right now.
We'll be talking about, well, all sorts of good stuff.
I guess what I'm saying is we should get right into it and that here it is, your daily dispatch.
All right, here it is folks, your daily dispatch for Thursday, the 18th of August 2022.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky announces shake-up of the organization, citing COVID mistakes.
Mistakes, she says they've made.
Wednesday, she announced a shake-up of the organization, saying it fell short in responding to COVID-19 and needs to become more nimble.
That's what it needs. It needs to become more nimble.
It's kind of like saying the Titanic fell short of arriving in New York Harbor.
Yeah, you fell a little bit short.
You burned everything down.
It was a catastrophe.
Maybe we need a new captain for a new ship.
I don't know. That's just me.
Or maybe the Titanic just needs to be more nimble.
Maybe it's just not nimble enough.
It's the nimbleness that's the real issue here.
Not the endless horrendous lies and the censorship and the failures on every single level and the approval of vaccines that both don't help fight the virus and actually cause a whole host of other major issues.
Maybe it's a cacophony of things.
Maybe it's an overwhelming number of shortfalls at every single step of the process.
Or maybe you just need to be a little more nimble.
I don't know. I'll leave this up to the experts, I guess.
The planned changes at the CDC are being called a reset, and it came amid criticisms of the agency's response to COVID-19, monkeypox, and other public health threats.
The changes include internal staffing moves and steps to speed up data releases.
Dr. Rochelle Walensky told the agency's staff about the changes on Wednesday.
She said, I feel like it's my responsibility to lead this agency to a better place after a really challenging three years.
Of course, she was the one Who brought all of these challenges.
She was the face of the CDC. She was the one who routinely went on television to tell vaccinated people to treat unvaccinated people like the dog spit that they are, like the lepers that they deserve to be treated as.
So it's just, again, you have to admire the lizard's ability to change its color, alter its camouflage whenever necessary.
To act like this is not entirely her fault.
If we want a big change, she should be leaving.
They should all be leaving. The entire place should be metaphorically burned to the ground.
She says, I think our public health infrastructure in this country is not up to the task of handling this pandemic.
We learned some hard lessons over the last three years and as part of my responsibility, it's the agency's responsibility to learn from those lessons and do better.
What lessons? You know, they say these things.
There have been some shortfalls and we made some mistakes.
We learned some lessons. Okay, what were the shortfalls?
What were the mistakes? What were the lessons that you learned?
Because she actually had to elucidate this stuff and actually describe what she's talking about.
You know the lessons that they learned.
They learned they need more censorship.
They learned they need more control over the information networks.
They learned that any amount of questioning can spiral out of control.
They learned they need an ironclad lock on the minds of the American people.
They didn't learn from their mistakes because they're still making the same mistakes they've been making the whole time.
unidentified
Stay tuned. You're tuned in to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith.
Watch it live right now at band.video.
harrison smith
Alright, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
In the chat, it's telling me to touch my nose if the salt must flow.
Marks in Ohio is asking for three conspiracies to prove tomorrow.
I want to see it proved that Fukushima was a false flag.
That's just one. I'll come up with more later.
But yes, if you want to chat in a place where I can be reading the chats on air, Getter and Rumble both have official InfoWars streams that you can chat on, meet other InfoWarriors, connect with each other, and I'll look over there every once in a while and maybe we'll see your message.
So continuing on with our Daily Dispatch here, we'll spend more time on this story a little bit later, but CDC Director Walensky I just always want to call her Waluigi.
She's shaking it up.
She's admitting to some past mistakes.
They've really, you know, they sort of screwed everything up for coronavirus, and now they're going to make amends by demanding billions of more dollars and making absolutely no changes that will benefit anybody in any way whatsoever.
It's the government, after all.
And the amazing thing is, our next story from the Daily Dispatch...
Is proof that the CDC is still doing all of the things that they were doing during COVID just as badly, just as horrifically, just as damagingly, this time with monkeypox, as NBC News finally decides to reveal that it's sex between men, not skin contact, that's fueling monkeypox, new research suggests.
Again, you just got to be confused by this sort of stuff, because we've always known this.
This has always been the case.
This has never been a...
Like, not true. I don't get it.
So it's just that they wanted to save gay men from embarrassment, so they concealed this fact.
They acted like everybody was at risk for monkeypox.
They refused to acknowledge what everybody knew was the real transmission vector by which monkeypox was spreading.
Gay orgies.
Everybody knew that.
The outbreak literally started at a gay orgy festival on an island.
We've all known this the entire time.
It's just you are addicted to dishonesty.
You are pathological liars that cannot allow the truth to come out, even when it would benefit the very people you're trying to protect.
You would think if you cared about gay people, you would tell them, hey, there is a sexually transmitted disease in the gay community right now.
You need to be careful. But instead, their calculus comes out with the result of, let's not offend or anger the gay blob, the monster that is the gay community in this country, by telling them the truth.
We have to pretend like they're not the ones who are being affected by this.
Of course, inevitably leading to more gay people getting infected, more risky behavior, more spreading of the disease.
And this is the same CDC that acts like it learned lessons from COVID. No, they're still pathological liars.
Their decisions are still being made to comport with their progressive social ideology rather than the facts on the ground which is incredibly dangerous when you're talking about the main medicine organization in this country the main health organization still way way way more concerned about control of information and progressing their social agenda than actually taking care of the health of the people as they've been charged to do.
So yeah, now they're admitting that it's sex between men that's doing this as if they're just finding this out and everybody in the media is pretending like we're all as dumb as they are.
We're not. We knew. It's been obvious since the very beginning.
We've reported on it continuously.
Yet another reason why InfoWars is.
Tomorrow's news today. This is maybe the most troubling issue And yet appropriate tweet that I've ever seen on this program, it once again shows how accurate InfoWars is in its predictions.
As we don't make things up baselessly, we simply follow the pattern and extrapolate where that pattern goes.
That is the basis of IQ. If anybody's ever taken an IQ test, the entire thing is pattern recognition.
Right? If you have a three-sided shape and then a four-sided shape and then a five-sided shape, what shape is the next one gonna be?
Right, well, it increases by one each time.
The next will be six. I have a high IQ. That's all it is.
That's all it takes. So, when you see the way that they're demonizing conservatives, when you see the way that those demonizations are ramped up, when you see the way that even very moderate positions that were held by liberal Democrats 10 years ago is now being considered right-wing, you know, far-right, alt-right white supremacy...
Then it's not that hard to say, okay, in a very short amount of time, the idea of being a Republican or voting Republican will be treated as a terrorist act.
You'll be allowed to do it. You'll just have to do it knowing that you are now naming yourself as an enemy of the state and must be destroyed.
Edward Luce on Twitter says, I've covered extremism and violent ideologies around the world over my career.
I have never come across a political force more nihilistic, dangerous, and contemptible than today's Republicans.
Nothing close.
Then former CIA Director General Michael Hayden responded saying, I agree, and I was the CIA director.
The CIA, former CIA director, formerly the head of the most powerful spy organization in the history of the world with unlimited funds and unrestricted ability to operate anywhere and everywhere they see fit without any oversight whatsoever from citizen authorities. formerly the head of the most powerful spy organization in The director of that organization has now made the claim or co-signed and agreed with the claim that American Republicans, your grandmother,
the lady at the store with the pro-life bumper sticker, the little old man at your church serving the lady at the store with the pro-life bumper sticker, the little old man at your They are more dangerous, more, I'm sorry, quote, contemptible, nihilistic, and dangerous than ISIS. People who burn their enemies alive.
People who keep lifelong sex slaves.
I mean, just...
It's outrageous and insane that this is the stuff that the former director of the CIA is agreeing with, but it's not like this isn't what they've been thinking for a while.
Now they're just coming out and saying it.
Moving on, the WEF has announced the recruitment of information warriors to control the narrative on social media.
And I'd like to say to all of them, welcome to the fight, ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you for making yourself known to us.
Hope you have that white flag ready.
Hope you're ready to have your entire mental paradigm shattered into a thousand pieces, into irreconcilable shards that you'll never be able to reconstruct again.
unidentified
I hope you're ready. Fact check and find out.
harrison smith
Yeah, fact check and find out.
Hope you have a good therapist.
Hope you have good health insurance.
You're about to... Understand that everything you've ever believed is a lie and that you're working for an organization of contemptible filth that will very, very shortly be consigned to the ash heap of history.
Hope you're getting a good pension.
Hope you have fun while you do it.
These memes are going to traumatize you.
You get that, right? You can't handle the truth.
Welcome to the fight, folks.
It's like hearing, we're on a battlefield.
We're grizzled veterans.
We've survived 10,000 conflicts.
Our guns have nearly melted from the heat of the bullets we've been firing at such rapidity.
And we just learned that they brought a class of kindergartners to face off with us.
Sorry, folks. It's going to be a bloodbath.
But I'm glad Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum have found...
Such a fun way to waste their money.
It's like they've built a bunch of pinatas for us, and we're about to smash through them.
Incredible. People see that and they go, oh my god, there's going to be 10,000 information warriors.
There already are. There already are.
From the IDF to the American military to think tanks and NGOs, there are thousands and tens of thousands of people whose daily job is Paid hourly is to be on the internet and spread the lies of the New World Order and they're floundering and they fail at every level and they have to censor us in order to even, you know, maintain a presence on the internet.
So welcome to the fight, folks.
Be ready to be destroyed. Finally, with this, the UK government admits COVID-vaccinated children are 4,423% more likely to die of any cause and 13,000% more likely to die of COVID-19 than unvaccinated children.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
A lot to talk about today.
We could spend the whole show on just those five stories from the Daily Dispatch, but it's just scratching the surface of everything we have to talk about today.
If you want a little sneak peek, somebody tweeted out yesterday, they called it a cheat sheet.
If you want your cheat sheet for the news of the day, you can go to my substack, harrisonhillsmith.substack.com, and sign up for a free newsletter where you get the entirety of my news aggregation each and every morning from the Daily Dispatch to all of the topics that we cover.
Just the first few today are monkeypox and COVID, crime and race, war, immigration.
There's the war on patriots.
And you can find links to all of the original stories there in the subsect.
Do your own research, do your own further reading, and share the information to your friends.
If you want to support this program and everything we do here at InfoWars, if you want to keep the boat afloat and keep gas in the fuel tank, the only way to do that is by going to InfoWarsStore.com.
Right now, DNA Force Plus is back in stock and 50% off.
And this really is one of the...
It's one of the...
Best products that we've ever sold, and we hardly can ever keep it on the shelves.
I mean, this thing sells out like hotcakes.
And it is one of our more expensive supplements.
You know, per pill or per bottle, it's a little bit pricier, but that just means you're saving even more when it's 50% off.
I mean, that is a massive, massive chunk of savings from DNA Force Plus from InfoWarsStore.com.
So if you've ever wanted to find it, Go ahead and head over to Infowarsstore.com right now and pick up a bottle before we sell out at that incredible low price of 50% off.
Just massive savings.
Infowarsstore.com. Keep us on the air.
Keep us fighting back.
Keep us in fighting form against these 100,000 mindless robots employed now by the WEF in an attempt to change the information.
You know, it's sort of appropriate...
Excuse me. It's sort of an illustration of the two ways of doing things.
In one way, you've got the Infowar style, which is to simply as an individual, get up and start telling the truth, try through your words, through your information, through your spirit to inspire other people to do the same.
And in a groundswell, brushfire of liberty sense...
Summon an army of info warriors out of thin air just from the ranks of regular Americans dedicating their own time, believing in the promise of America, the promise of freedom and liberty and our founding fathers and Christianity and all of the beautiful things that this country has brought to us.
And just inspire the information minutemen and militia of this country to rise to the occasion and fight back against the disinformation of the organized technocratic corporate media.
That's one tactic. The other tactic is to find a billionaire to cut checks to pay out of work college students to lie for you online.
Which do you think is going to be the more successful method over the long term?
They're gonna run out of money eventually.
They might be able to, you know, burn this place to the ground.
They might be able to torch this studio to embers.
Won't hamper for a single second the ability of the info warriors to get out there and spread the truth.
We are invulnerable in the metaphysical sense, unlike the well-funded scumbags that compose our enemies.
And it's just, again, amazing how right we are about everything.
You know, I guess it can seem a little bit conceited about stuff.
But it's not like this is hard.
It's like saying, you know, it's like I'm bragging about beating a three-year-old a tic-tac-toe every time.
It's not exactly a brag, right?
Yeah, we're beating the mainstream media because the mainstream media are inveterate liars who couldn't tell the truth if their life depended on it.
And who have to fabricate like a false ignorance in their own audience in order to get their lives over on them.
Never once has it been a question as to who is being infected with monkeypox or why.
It's never been a question.
It's never been up for debate.
Nobody's ever scratched their heads and go, God, let's get to the bottom of this.
Monkeypox, the outbreak began at a gay orgy on some island off the coast of Spain.
And we should find the old videos from May or April whenever monkeypox first started hitting the news.
I remember sitting here and going, alright, you have a very, very small population of people that were exposed to this disease on this island.
It would be the simplest matter of logistics, just the easiest thing ever to go find the people who are at the island, get in contact with them, say you have been introduced to a disease, here's what the disease is, here's how it runs its course, you should quarantine you should lock down
not everybody not the whole world not the entire economy shutting down but maybe 400 500 people that were at this one particular event could take it upon themselves to have a modicum of self-restraint for the sake of the whole world for the sake of stopping this disease in its tracks all you have to do for a month or two desist from risky promiscuous sexual behavior You know, stick with your dedicated partner just for a month or so.
Let the season runs course.
If you never show symptoms, you're great.
You're in the clear. One month, it would have been over.
No problem. Wouldn't have spread.
No vaccine necessary.
No billions of dollars on research.
No panic. No nothing.
It's easy. So easy, right?
Like, solving these problems is like beating a three-year-old at tic-tac-toe.
Could not be easier. Any thinking adult could do it While completely distracted and not even paying attention.
So easy to understand these things.
Instead, we live in a world where the media In order to compound the fear, in order to inspire the panic, in order to confuse the masses, to make a little bit more money, to get the big headlines, to act like we don't know what this is.
I mean, you can see the headlines where they're like, monkeypox is not a gay disease.
Everybody's at risk for monkeypox.
It's just like, no, they're not.
And yes, it is a gay disease.
It's not a judgment thing to say this is where it's spreading.
These are the people it's infecting.
But I guess because of this hypersensitivity, you have to pretend to be ignorant.
You have to be purposefully naive and obstinate.
So, I don't know.
Now tons of people have been horrifically infected.
Nine children at this point, which...
Hey, that's a question we should probably be asking.
If this is a sexually transmitted disease, why are children and dogs getting it?
That's weird. But Ian Myles Chong actually put together a little collection of clips here.
From the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, another one of these Orwellian-named think tanks, says, Over the course of eight days on Twitter, monkeypox went from a topic of public health concern to the subject of far-right disinformation.
Today's dispatch explores how Twitter facilitated the spread of groomer narratives and failed to stop anti-LGBTQ hatred.
So we're sitting here like, if you're gay, you're at more risk for monkeypox.
You need to be careful. It's spreading in the population of your demographic, and because of these behaviors, here's how you avoid it.
And they're just like, oh, so you hate gay people?
Oh, so you're a homophobe that thinks gay people deserve to be burned?
And it's just like, what? Are you talking about?
Are you insane or stupid?
I mean, we need to get... Like, should I feel in danger or sorry for you?
I need to know which way to feel because something's not right here and it ain't on this side.
We got everything pretty well figured out.
It's not that complicated.
You, however, seem to be confusing things either on purpose for your own ends or because there's something wrong in your brain.
Do you have monkeypox in your brain?
unidentified
Welcome back, folks. We're going to continue to talk about monkeypox here for a little bit.
harrison smith
Although, trending number one on Twitter right now is hashtag anti-white.
And boy, is that a fun scroll.
I'm not even being sarcastic.
It's actually a lot of great information being posted.
So maybe we'll talk about that in just a second.
Let's return to monkeypox for the time being.
As we hear the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.
In fact, let's do some live research right now and find out who is the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.
Institute for Strategic Dialogue.
What does that even mean?
Dialogue means a discussion between two, right?
Die, dichotomous. Die means two, right?
So strategic dialogue, which I think means you're pretending to have a conversation with two people, but really you're strategizing to get your point across over somebody else.
It's a London-based think tank discussing and modifying police responses to extremism.
Their CEO is, the founding CEO is Sasha Havlasek.
105 people work for this.
It was formed 16 years ago.
Runs a wide-ranging program of work on extremism, which ranges from traditional research papers through the facilitation of practitioner networks and development of counter-narrative tools to combat extremism.
Their work ranges from work on Islamist extremism through to far-right extremism.
Yes, it ranges.
It ranges from Islamic to far-right, circumventing and skirting every other type, right?
unidentified
It's just like, yes, we're...
harrison smith
We're ranging from Islamic extremists over here and far right extremists over here and we're just jumping from one to the other and ignoring all of the leftist extremists and all of the progressive extremism and all of the atheist extremism and all of the every other type of extremism but we're ranging from Islamist to the far right.
Amazing. ISD partners with governments and leaders in the technology sector such as Google.
ISD also chairs the EU's Radicalization Awareness Network working group on the internet and social media.
Okay, so this isn't just some random progressive think tank.
This is a 16-year-old 105-staff organization that has direct oversight over official EU programs, is an official advisor to massive big tech companies such as Google, and apparently works hand-in-hand with...
Law enforcement itself, through things such as the Strong Cities Network, launched at the United Nations in September 2015.
The Strong Cities Network, SCN, is the first ever global network of mayors, municipal level policymakers, and practitioners committed to building social cohesion and countering violent extremism in all of its forms.
It's partnered with Google.
Delivering millions of dollars in an innovation fund to counter hate and extremism.
There you go. We're learning things live here on the program.
The ISD has researched the issue of mis- and disinformation around climate change as well.
Okay, so these are the organizations.
These are the well-funded, well-staffed, highly competent organizations that That are receiving millions of dollars, partnering with the biggest companies and governments in the entire world to progress their ideology, to combat far-right extremism, by which they mean censor and confuse topics that they don't like.
And so here we have just a Twitter thread of them being absolutely incoherently wrong about everything.
There's still the authorities. There's still the officials.
There's still policies being made on this.
There's still programs being created and run by these people being this wrong about absolutely everything.
They say monkeypox is not currently considered an STD, and it likely spreads through close skin-skin or oral skin contact.
It initially spread in the queer male community, better known as the men-who-have-sex-with-men community, because again, we can't just say things like they are.
We have to couch everything in rhetorical madness.
Twitter discourse focused on advocating public health measures to contain it.
On July 22nd, the first cases of the disease were detected in children.
In the U.S. CDC, Walensky said the children affected were adjacent to the gay community, sparking hate-filled insinuations online.
Yes, it's just that hate that people have.
It's hate that drives people to be concerned about children being molested.
It's hate that says somebody go, wait, how did that child get an STD? I'm sorry, how did that child get gonorrhea?
Who gave that child chlamydia?
What, so you just hate gay people?
No, we're concerned about the reality.
We're concerned about what is real, and you people are psychopaths.
Far-right politicians, online provocateurs, and anti-LGBTQ plus activists are among the actors trying to frame the queer community as groomers who are abusing children as well as monkeypox being the next stage in the so-called plandemic.
These are a lot of different topics.
Do you understand that? Do you understand these things are all different from one another?
They may be related in certain ways.
But again, they just rely on the ignorance and stupidity of the average person to just think all of these things are somehow one in the same.
And the big bad right-wingers just hate gay people so much that they're making these wild baseless claims that it's an STD spread in the gay community because of their hate that they feel.
And they're using this to justify the other hate that they have against preschool teachers.
Training kids to secretly be trans and giving them a closet to change into opposite-sex clothes.
It's just okay.
All right. These are the officials.
These people run an official EU branch of the global government.
Just so we're clear. Marjorie Taylor Greene shared a clip of the CDC director with the caption, If monkeypox is a sexually transmitted disease, why are kids getting it?
Well, she's clearly so hateful.
By July 25th, conversation was dominated by disinformation and anti-LGBTQ plus hate.
Far-right figures, including Jack Posobiec, Ian Miles Chung, and Errol Weber, took the lead from Marjorie Taylor Greene's tweet by employing a just-asking-questions approach.
And again, folks, it's just that when your mind...
Is so conspiratorial and Machiavellian and dishonest and manipulative.
You have to see everything through that lens.
So when just normal people are just like actually asking questions, they can't see it as just...
Somebody going, well, this is strange.
What's happening here? They have to see it as, no, they're, they're taking, they're cult members taking lead from Marjorie Taylor Greene, who's instructing them on how to frame their questions to avoid seeming like bigots while actually spreading their, it's just...
Just because you people organize and get in little groups and train and manipulate and convince each other to spread lies, knowing that the ultimate goal is like, you do that.
We don't do that. You people are the evil ones.
We are literally just asking questions and just coming to the correct conclusions as is proven out over and over again.
But the other thing you have to understand is that just because something is true doesn't mean it's not hate speech.
Just because something is real and factual doesn't mean that these people now regret framing it as disinformation.
It's kind of hard to explain.
It is Orwell, and Orwell probably has passages that explain it better than I can.
But I think everybody sort of understands it, right?
You have an objective truth like monkeypox is a sexually transmitted disease in the gay community.
That has always been true.
That floats above the timeline as always and forever having been true.
But on the timeline down here, you have whether you're allowed to talk about it or not.
Previously, as of May or June in 2022, this truth that floats above had not yet been acknowledged by the officials.
So acknowledging this truth made you an agent of disinformation because it had not been made public.
It had not been established as true.
Now if we've traveled down the timeline and the officials have admitted it, NBC News reports it and the CDC admits it, that truth that has always been true can now be acknowledged and is not disinformation.
But going back in time, it was still disinformation even though it was true.
Do you understand what I'm saying? Do you understand that these people have no...
They have no shame.
They aren't looking back and going, oh, they were right the whole time.
In their mind, you were still wrong to say that stuff back then.
You were still wrong to say it was a sexually transmitted disease.
Even if you were correct, you were spreading disinformation and hate by saying it before the approved time.
It's kind of complicated, but we're dealing with psychopaths with broken brains.
We have to break our brains to understand what they're saying.
Let's just picture...
Anytime I hear this music, just picture those images just charging on a horse, sword in your hand against a phalanx of enemies.
Feels good. Feels appropriate to what we're doing here, knowing that there are horde upon horde of mindless goblin servants of evil arrayed against us without a thought in their head.
Other than serving unquestioningly masters who are enacting schemes that their pathetic brains can hardly even conceive of.
It's pretty incredible.
It's pretty wild. It's good to know that we don't ride alone.
And I'm enjoying watching the rumble chat now.
I guess the getter chat is down.
Apparently the getter stream is down, I hear.
But I am watching the rumble chat if you want to chat.
Live Rumble stream is a good place to do it, the official Infowar stream.
We still have just so much to talk about, but while I lay out some of the news that we'll get to in a little bit, including the anti-white hashtag that's trending across Twitter right now as, well, they're just not even pretending not to hate white people anymore.
It's just open discrimination at this point.
Just like, because we despise discrimination and we love diversity, we will no longer be hiring people of a specific race.
And nobody thinks that that's weird.
Okay, a little strange.
Some more crime news as well.
But while we get things in order here, I'd like Matt to come in and talk about The inconsistencies he found, because during the Daily Dispatch, we reported some pretty shocking numbers that frankly seemed too crazy to be true.
Why, hello. Oh, hello, Matt.
So this is a...
Let me set the stage for you here.
Sure. It's by the Expose, globalresearch.ca is where we found this story.
It was first published on July 29th.
It says the UK government admits that COVID-vaccinated children are 4,400...
23% more likely to die of any cause and 13,633% more likely to die of COVID-19 than of unvaccinated children.
And here this chart is pretty shocking.
You see the mortality rates by vaccination status and you see very low at first until you get to the second dose, third dose and booster shot when the number of deaths, all deaths, non-COVID-19 deaths and COVID-19 deaths all seem to skyrocket.
So again, we said if this number is true, this is bombshell, shocking, horrific stuff.
You did some digging into these numbers and some critical thinking about the information you were getting.
matt infowars
What do you got for us, Matt? So let's preface this by saying that we are talking about correlation and not causation.
That's the number one thing that people who may not be familiar with stats need to really, really take into account that just because we see these trends doesn't mean that one is necessarily caused by or, you know, one thing does not necessarily mean the other is going to for sure happen.
Now, when you look at these numbers, these are shocking numbers, and I think that anybody who sees these types of increases in terms of like a 45 times increase and a, you know, 136-fold increase, right, those are something that you should always have a red flag when you see a headline like that, and you should do your own digging because stats can be misleading.
Right. And initially, I went to The Conversation.
And if you go to that website, COVID Vaccines for Children.
Uptake in the UK is slow.
Here's why parents might be hesitant.
It talks about how vaccine hesitancy is a complex issue.
And that across the UK, the proportion of 5 to 11-year-olds, and subsequently, there is data for 10 to 14-year-olds, like in that chart that you see there.
Being very low. If you look at it, there's roughly 3% in Northern Ireland, 9% in England, 13% in Wales, and 20% in Scotland of these children who are vaccinated, right?
And it's one of those things where if you take a look at that pool, if it was a majority of the children, if it was We'll say 90% of children or 95% of children who were vaccinated, then you would see these numbers and you would be able to interpret them as if anyone in the vaccinated pool were to die, then it would contribute to these statistics, therefore explaining them.
But this is actually the opposite to where if you were to see such a small pool of vaccinated children and yet despite that you've got these types of numbers in your statistics, that would be extremely alarming.
That would be something that would probably be headline news across every news agency and it would be very difficult to explain until you get to the method in which they rolled it out.
So in going and checking out NHS data, it shows that children who were at high risk were the only children able to be vaccinated, meaning that these children already had compromised immune systems or had some meaning that these children already had compromised immune systems or had some type of illness, and therefore they were prioritized in the vaccine rollout,
harrison smith
So the kids that were already sick with other diseases, with cancer, with leukemia, like a child that was already or an autoimmune disorder, they would be sort of the worse you were, the more likely you were to get the vaccine.
So if a kid has terminal cancer and they give him the vaccine and then he dies of that cancer, that is going to throw off these statistics.
matt infowars
Exactly. Yeah. And then, you know, you can go back to the conversation and you can look at the attitudes of parents, right?
It is true that despite the vaccine rollout amongst the sick children, most parents, it's like a very small minority of parents that are vaccinated actually even want to have their children vaccinated in the UK. It's like 23 and 34.
have their children vaccinated, which I think is good, right?
It means that there are some, some parents who are cautious in terms of their, their kids' health.
And they understand that children do have robust immune systems and that, you know, if they contract COVID, it's most likely for, for most healthy children, it's, you know, a non-issue, right?
They're going to have very mild symptoms.
So do keep that in mind.
And, you know, it's always good to do a little digging.
harrison smith
So what's the takeaway then?
Because you're right.
And we always sort of...
We always make sure to suss this stuff out because you would see headlines that were like 90% of deaths were amongst the vaccinated.
And then you look and it's like, well, if 90% of the people were vaccinated, 90% of the deaths were among vaccinated, then it's almost – I mean, that would be the result of the placebo as well.
There would be no change there.
But just that headline, 90% were vaccinated, could give a misleading thing.
So we always try to give you the background of what the numbers actually mean and what they contribute to.
But in this case, like these numbers are so high with the 13,000% increase, it's like almost undeniable.
matt infowars
The takeaway is I think you can draw from the preface right there, which is correlation and causation, right?
Right. You can see a degree of correlation there, and who knows?
These vaccines could contribute to immunodeficiency problems, being as that it's a vaccine that is for a coronavirus.
That type of virus itself can contribute to problems with the immune system.
It's the reason why we haven't had a coronavirus vaccine before COVID-19.
harrison smith
Well, yeah, or an mRNA vaccine before COVID-19 either.
So the takeaway is that these numbers, while shocking, they might give a slightly distorted view of just how dangerous this is.
But on the same hand, it completely destroys the idea that these are 95% effective and completely, perfectly safe.
It completely shatters that.
So the reality is somewhere in the middle.
And the takeaway I'm going to leave with is...
I'm not going to get my kid vaccinated for COVID-19, ever, no matter what, even if my kid has leukemia.
It's not Ebola. It's not a NEPA virus.
It's not a 60% death rate.
It's much lower. It's much safer.
But thank you for doing the dig on that.
And for people that don't know, a lot of times we'll get to stories.
And if it ever seems too good to be true, I guarantee, I know that come the next commercial break, I'm going to hear Matt in my ear going, alright, I looked into this and here's what the reality is.
So, I just, you know, I hope people recognize we aren't just flying off the cuff here.
We do the research that's required to get the stories in their proper context, to get you the information that you need.
I can't tell you how many times.
It's their number one go-to is Infowars and right-wingers are fear-mongers.
They just want to make everybody scared to sell them stuff.
We're not the ones telling you the earth is going to be destroyed in 12 years.
We're not the ones telling you to eat bugs.
We're not the ones telling you that there's, you know, some sort of, you know, massive, uh, uh, Virus that's gonna kill everything.
We all need to stay inside for the rest of our lives.
We are here telling you to break free of the chains of fear.
Seize the day because it belongs to you and the fear is the only thing keeping you from doing that.
So, you know, this is all part of it is getting to the reality.
Once you understand the reality, there's nothing to fear anymore.
There's just something to face and take on.
I heard a rumor yesterday YouTube is removing videos and striking channels who post images of Chinese tanks taking on Chinese protesters who are trying to get their money out of banks.
Let me see if I can read exactly the message that I got because there were some pretty interesting details here.
And of course we'll show you any videos that we can find.
Zach, our editor, said, hey, people are getting banned on YouTube for posting videos of Chinese tanks blocking protesters.
Apparently China's economy is about to implode and they're covering it up.
The banks are flagging protesters as high risk for COVID so they can get swept off the streets.
That is absolutely insane.
I said, send me any videos you find.
He says, well, the tank video, it turns out the tank video was sketchy.
But the reports all over are saying military in plain clothes are suppressing crowds and thousands are in front of banks daily.
Apparently mortgage strikes have cost the country a ton.
So again, it's just – I wish – It's hard... It's hard to...
Here's... Videos of Chinese tanks was captioned in RiZao, not at Henan bank protestors' protests.
The claim says the video shows tanks being deployed to stop bank protests in China.
Since April, four major banks in China's Henan province have frozen millions of dollars in deposits, causing hundreds of thousands of people to lose their livelihoods, according to CNN. The resulting protests have been met with violent crackdowns by police.
Numerous users on social media have uploaded video purportedly showing Chinese tanks being sent to combat these protests.
It shows tanks lining up on a city street while pedestrians watch.
So what's the truth behind it?
It gathered more than 2,000 likes in its first five days.
Context clues in the video, however, prove it was captured in Rizhou, China, however, not Henan, where the bank protests have taken place.
The video was captured in Rizhou province.
The bright yellow lights of a hotel show which hotel it is, and you can see the railway station in the video, so you can tell which one it is.
So it's a place 300 miles away from Henan.
And they called the front desk, part of an annual military exercise, reached out to Jinan In on the same street, and he was told the same thing.
As reported by the France 24 Observer, the Chinese Maritime Safety Administration had released an announcement that large-scale military activities would be taking place in the Yellow Sea region, bordering Rijau between July 14th and July 16th.
Our rating false. Based on our research, we rate false the claim that the video shows Chinese tanks being deployed to repress bank protesters.
It was captured in Rijau.
They're more than 300 miles apart.
Although we played at some of these videos, and it didn't look like military training.
It looked like tanks squaring off against protesters.
And maybe it's just military training.
Maybe that's a little bit confusing.
So... Yes, there are protesters.
Yes, there are banks shutting out people with hundreds, with, you know, cutting off millions of dollars worth of their own deposits from being withdrawn.
There are protests happening, and of course, the Chinese government does not countenance such disobedience from their people.
It's not out of the question they would send tanks.
I guess the distinction is that instead they are just sending plainclothes police officers to To get people and pretty troubling rumors, but again not out of the realm of possibility that Chinese banks being a part of the Chinese Communist system would use the incredibly draconian COVID restrictions to stop people from protesting.
It's a very convenient tool they've forged for themselves.
I'm sure we all saw the video.
I don't think I played it here, but I had it in the folder yesterday of, I believe it was Shanghai and Ikea.
Somebody tested positive at the Ikea and so the Ikea locked the doors and shut everybody in because at that point the Ikea store was under quarantine and all the customers rushed for the exits and started crowding around the doors to try to get out as they were locked down.
So they now just have a push button immediately able to be activated Legal structure by which they could just arbitrarily imprison and detain huge swaths of the population on the most flimsy of evidence.
Oh no, it was a positive test.
Lock down. Everybody go to jail.
Welcome back, folks.
We'll be taking your calls this hour.
The number to dial is 1-877-789-2539.
1-877-789-2539.
Let's talk a little bit more about China.
Graham Stephan has this thread on Twitter.
He says, The Chinese economy is experiencing a near-complete collapse.
Nearly half a million customers have lost their deposits as banks lend indiscriminately to housing developers who are now facing cascading defaults.
Here's the story that the Chinese government does not want you to know.
All of this begins with one thing, real estate.
Chinese are obsessed with real estate and 70% of China's wealth is tied to real estate.
That number is twice as high as the U.S. Reports are now emerging about real estate Ponzi schemes, mortgage boycotts and an unfolding bank crisis.
Chinese citizens prefer to invest in real estate as the Chinese stock market is notoriously opaque and unreliable.
The Shanghai Composite, similar to RS&P 500, has not yet recovered from its 2008 peak despite China's GDP by growing nearly three times since then.
For some context on how crazy the real estate market in China is, the median home price in New York is around 10 times the median annual income, but in Beijing this can be as high as 25 times the manual annual income.
The median annual income, that is.
So again, it's just...
It's so funny because if you listen to progressive talking points in the media here in America today, it's that we need socialism and we need communism because people can't even afford to live.
People can't even afford to pay their rent.
We need a livable wage.
How are they... If people are spending...
This chunk of their paycheck, just for a roof over their head, that's not right.
Then you go to a place where all of these people's dreams have come true, where you have complete, total, organized, centralized economic control by a singular, monolithic government party.
You have, instead of ten times...
Median income, you have 25 times.
Everything gets worse every single time.
The problems that they claim to solve, they only make worse, and then they double down in an endless loop of misery, suffering, and control.
He says the insatiable demand led to Ponzi schemes, where developers pre-sell homes, which are not even built, use the pre-sale money to start more projects, and then collect more pre-sales from new projects.
Buyers started a mortgage boycott as the properties have not yet been completed.
Can you imagine paying a mortgage for a house that doesn't exist?
The crisis spread to banks as they had loaned out depositors' money to developers who were now defaulting on payments.
As frozen deposits mounted and protests erupted all over China, investigations revealed critical systemic issues.
For starters, during the COVID crisis, the government had lowered the 10% limit on assets that banks had to keep in cash, and investigations revealed corrupt practices in the bank, some of which were taken over by criminal gangs who transferred the deposits outside the country.
And yet again, I'm just slightly confused.
I'm not the most literate when it comes to confusing and complicated and occult practices of financial institutions.
But I'm having a difficult time figuring out how this is different than what banks just do normally.
This is just what happens.
I mean, this is the same thing that happened in America almost to a T, right?
You work hard. You sign a contract to work for a company.
You dedicate your time.
You spend your lifeblood and your precious moments on earth working in exchange for a wage.
You take that money. You put it into a bank for safekeeping.
That bank bundles that money up with a bunch of other people's money, gives it to corporations.
Corporations fall. The bank loses their money.
You lose your money.
The bank gets a bailout for the government that's taken out of your tax dollars.
It's a big scheme.
It's a big scam. It's a big...
It's a laundering operation.
It's usury as a government policy.
So it just seems like this isn't a flaw of the system.
It's just the way the system runs.
It just goes for a certain point until the scheme can no longer continue.
You want to talk about a Ponzi scheme?
This whole economy is a Ponzi scheme.
It's all playing fast and loose with...
With truth. It's all just a big con, as far as I can tell.
In China, it seems like the con is finally coming to an end.
With reports suggesting that over 400,000 customers have fallen victims to such activities, public trust in the banking system plummeted and the government stepped in to avoid bank runs and liquidity crunches.
But their strategies seem, at best, questionable.
It is at best questionable.
Because in China, none of their policies are questionable.
You can't question their policies.
That's the point of communism.
Their policies are unquestionable.
That's why it's called communism.
They're wrong, they're incorrect, they're dangerous and damaging and horrific and stupid, but you can't question them.
The government has agreed to pay up to $15,000 for lost deposits, but only if the banks weren't involved in non-compliant transactions.
The government's strategy for over-leveraged property is to lend more money to finish them and pretend that everything's fine.
Also, I mean, this is not...
Something unique to China.
This is communism. This is how it works.
It's the exact same tactics that led to the starvation of tens of millions during the rise of the Soviet Communist Party.
It's just the same thing over and over.
It's just centralized control, being completely incompetent, and yet being unquestionable, and having the full force and weight of a mechanized totalitarian technocratic control system By which to silence dissenters that are pointing out how wrong you are.
So simple. It's really not complicated at all.
Whether these strategies can revive investor confidence or is simply delaying the inevitable remains to be seen.
But China is unlikely to meet its targeted 5.5 GDP growth rate right now.
Youth unemployment is at nearly 20%.
You know what they probably need?
I mean, what's the population of China?
A billion? 1.3 billion?
What they need is 2 billion immigrants.
I think that might be the problem.
I've heard. I have it on good authority.
The experts have assured me that any economic troubles the country may be facing, the only solution is to import tens of millions of hostile foreigners into your borders.
So maybe that's what China needs right now.
We have plenty. We could send them just tons.
That can be our solution.
Deporting people back to the country from which they came, their homeland, the place where they grew up and were raised since being a child, that is a horrific, violent, racist, far-right, white nationalist policy.
How dare I try to send a Mexican back to Mexico?
It's just awful, right?
So, okay. That's fine.
I want them to be...
I call it the Israeli tactic.
It's literally what Israel does.
They'll have like a giant population of Africans that breaks into Israel and becomes illegal immigrants.
And Israel goes, whoa, whoa, whoa, you can't do that.
We're sending you back. And everybody goes, whoa, you can't just send people back to Africa.
And they're like, all right, you're right. You're right.
We can't just be sending people back to where they came from.
We're going to send them all to Europe.
You're welcome. They literally do that.
So we can just do that. Why don't we just do that?
We have Border Patrol, start working with the Air Force or something, and all of the illegal immigrants that we catch over here without the proper documentation to show that they were allowed in the country, don't send them back to their country.
That's mean. We send them to China.
We send them straight to China. We let them take care of it.
We know the communist socialists of China must be better than us.
They're not racist white people in China, so...
The poor beleaguered Costa Ricans that are, you know, here now.
We package them up.
We send them off to China as a gift, as a show of goodwill, both to the Chinese people and to the migrants.
This is a two bird with one stone and it's beneficial and loving.
So maybe that's what we should do.
I'm sorry, let's continue with the downfall of China as the hollow, weak facade.
Everything's so appropriate, isn't it?
The way this all works. The housing crisis in China being a completely false facade that crumbles under the slightest weight.
Because the housing companies in China, in order to cut costs, use bad material and improper engineering that causes the houses and the apartment buildings themselves to sometimes completely fall over.
It's almost like the physical reality and the metaphysical reality are merging and becoming one.
God himself providing an illustration.
In fact, we might have time for this.
Let's go to clip number six. Here's a Chinese worker testing his helmet against his boss's helmet.
Let's watch. You see a Chinese worker wearing a yellow helmet.
He's showing his boss's helmet, the red one there.
They're going to do a little stress test.
You bang them together, one to one, and there's a giant hole in the yellow helmet.
This is communism, folks.
The bosses get the real helmets.
The workers get the pretend helmets that don't protect anybody but comply with the regular.

Infowarsstore.com. Keep us on the air and keep us running strong.
Let's go now out to the phone calls.
We have Scott in New Jersey, who's a long-time listener but a first-time caller.
Love to hear it. Thanks for calling in, Scott.
You're on the air. Hold on.
I think the crew is distracted by Greg Reese wandering around the studio.
All right. Thanks for coming in, Scott.
You're on the air. Can you hear me?
unidentified
I hear you. Oh, my God.
Honestly, I don't even know where to start.
Okay. Let's start from here.
I'm not over the election.
After everything went south and he lost the election and they stole the election for him, honestly, Harrison, I really disconnected And I just really tap into, like, war game mode.
You know, I start, like, you know, we talk about it.
You guys talk about it. We rave about it.
You know, we talk about it, but people don't understand, like, the complexity of it.
You know, it was literally a challenge.
harrison smith
Hold on. I'm losing you there, Scott.
Sorry, the connection went bad a little bit.
If you can just make sure to be talking directly into your phone.
You were good for a while there, but we lost you at the end.
unidentified
All right. Let me take it off. It's much better now.
Much better. You know, so I still haven't got over the election, basically.
You know, no matter what your beliefs are, who you believe in left or right, you know, at the end of the day, You know, majority of America voted for this guy.
And to see these people disrespect us and really throw this in our face, how they pulled ballots from under the table.
They literally had dead people voting.
Like, it was just like, I couldn't believe The Matrix came real.
But a brief story.
I ran into you guys about 2008.
You know, I was in the streets.
I was in a lot of things, or whatever the case may be.
And somebody forced me to watch something called Zygots.
Now, this is something I watched.
I'm pretty sure you know of it. You're familiar with what the case may be.
But when I watched that, it didn't make sense, but it made a lot of sense.
So, and I got curious since then.
I mean, I've been fighting this InfoWars battle since 2008.
I've been called to everything. My family, some of my family wouldn't believe it.
And I was crazy because there's things that they said in Zygots and there's things like, you know, that I watched, created by InfoWars.
You got Zygots, Obama's deception, something Ali Jones made about how it's unconstitutional to pay taxes and there's no written law.
Like, all these things that was just like, like, what was going on?
Right. So, to make another long story short, I know there's a lot of callers, but honestly, I really don't care because you guys got to hear this.
Okay. And I also support, I buy it religiously.
You know, I buy it religiously.
harrison smith
No, I love it. Keep going, Scott.
I'm here for it. Let's go.
unidentified
I buy it religiously for you guys.
You guys really, I don't care if you guys bleep it out, but y'all are really my fucking nigga.
You hear me? We do have to bleep it out.
harrison smith
All right, Scott.
I'm loving this call, but we are going to have to drop you if you're going to start.
Because if you want to stay on air, you cannot be cursing on air.
But let me ask you this.
What do you think about the former director of the CIA claiming that Republicans are the most nihilistic, dangerous, and contemptible group that he's ever been across?
I mean, how does that make you feel as somebody that probably is not a big fan of the CIA, knowing that they see you as worse than ISIS? Honestly, honestly, it doesn't even matter.
unidentified
You know, it's all cast for their friendly goals.
What we've got to do as Americans and as the public, we have to become our own economy.
We have to create the way you're in socialism and communism is continued capitalism.
You know, we've got to continue being self-provisioned.
We've got to continue to be...
Fuel efficient. We still gotta be.
What was the other car guy that come on all the time?
Rugged individualism.
We gotta keep that going.
You know, and then no matter what, if you create your own economy, invest into something, start a business, invest into whatever you believe that can provide a service for others, then we always gonna be in good shape.
But, I'm gonna give you this before you go.
I say, I wrote this in 2008, and I promise, Harrison, I ain't gonna curse.
I say, what you know about these scandals that these people face, False flags attack that bring shock to your face.
Everything is kept secret.
That's what I hate. I can't take it, so it's time to set the record straight.
Build a burg and a trilateral commission.
Them the ones who should be sitting in a prison.
And the council in foreign relations.
I wonder why these scandals never break the front paper.
I don't agree with JFK, but he put his own, because he talked about what's really going on.
He spoke about a shadow of government in his speech.
Two weeks later, he got sniped in the backseat.
Some say it was conspiracy.
They killed that man because he spoke on some theories.
New world order is coming in effect.
Stand for your rights, but that's all we got left.
You don't want them putting microchips in your brain.
I know you remember Noah Zart, man.
I'm not a saint. Humans love to feed off unfounded terror.
But terror is that politician looking in the mirror, controlling us with a blimmin' new communication.
They had me until I did some investigating.
They're not elected.
They selected to that inauguration.
And Obama was a small part to the equation.
In four words for life, I love you guys.
Y'all keep putting up that fight and keep doing what y'all are doing, man, because y'all really changed their lives.
Whether they don't say that, but y'all really changed my life.
I'm sorry for cursing, but if I walked up on you, Harrison, just your hand up.
harrison smith
That was fantastic, man.
Absolutely brilliant. More true now than it was in 2008.
Fantastic stuff.
unidentified
You're tuned in to the American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith.
Watch it live right now at band.video.
harrison smith
Alright folks, welcome back.
We're halfway through today's program.
It's so funny. I so often will have conversations with people and they'll be like, how do you do a three hour show that's so long?
And every day, every day I get about halfway through the show and I go, oh God, I have so much more to cover.
I need a good six, seven hours to even get to all this stuff.
And that's not even giving them the attention that all of these topics deserve.
I could do three hours on just one of these stories, really getting into where it comes from, where it's going, what's behind it.
I have to remind myself that We need a decentralized command structure, essentially.
I don't need to do super deep dives on one topic for a super long time because there are lots of people out.
We have people for that.
We got people in the trenches.
We got people in the tanks. We got people in the fighter pilots on the aircraft carriers.
And I need to be up here Trying to give you the overview of the larger battlefield.
So I try to do that while giving the appropriate attention to everything else.
But some stories that fall by the wayside.
Things like this.
CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart has been ordered to pay $650 million to Ohio counties in an opioid case.
This is a trial that was called a bellwether case for attorneys elsewhere.
It was the first decision reached among lawsuits targeting pharmacy change for their alleged role in the opioid crisis.
U.S. Judge Dan Polster in Cleveland issued his order on Wednesday after a separate non-jury trial was held to determine the appropriate amount the companies must pay.
He ruled the defendants were responsible for a portion of plans created for Lake and Trumbull counties, the plaintiffs in the case, to address problems linked to the opioid epidemic.
He ordered the companies immediately pay two years worth of those payments into a fund or $86 million of the total $650.6 million.
The companies plan to appeal the decision.
But again, this speaks to a lot of...
What we talk about on a regular basis, the corruption of the pharmaceutical companies, the corruption of corporations in general, as well as the concerted efforts to destroy, by one way or another, the health of the American people.
You know, stuff like this gets drowned out when we have to make fun of the CDC for pretending like monkeypox was a danger to You know, housewives in order to create the fear that they needed.
We've got a whole other story.
You know, we spent time on this yesterday.
It's like I spent a bunch of time talking about the failure of the Black Lives Matter movement to do anything other than kill a bunch of black people, drive up crime rates across the entire country.
And so, you know, I covered a lot of that yesterday.
But then today, there's another story.
AOC's defund the police report card flunks statistics test as NYC crime spike rattles communities.
Even with Big Apple murder rates similar this year compared to last, other major crimes have surged.
Police statistics show and polls find New Yorkers are fed up with it.
So just more complete and utter failures.
You know, a lot of people go, man, everything's getting worse.
I'll tell you. I'll tell you what's not happening.
Things are not becoming more conservative.
Things are not becoming more capitalistic.
They're not becoming more Christian and getting worse.
Everything is becoming more progressive.
Everything is becoming more left-wing.
They get everything that they want.
They make demands. Those demands go through the process.
They get fulfilled even if they don't go through the correct process.
They just are enforced by that process.
Fourth arm of the U.S. government, the corporations, or the media.
They get everything they want.
Everything they could desire is given to them on a silver platter, and everything gets worse.
Conservatives have to fight and scrape just to get a modicum of respect from these organizations.
Then when you actually get somebody like Donald Trump into office, who actually pursues Things that most Americans with brains in their heads want, you get lowest unemployment ever, massive boosts in median and average income, tax cuts across the board, just massive success, massive growth, massive...
Just everything's fantastic.
But, you know, he tweets out mean, so we have to stop him.
I mean, it's just all... It's all so predictable.
It's all so tiresome. It's all so...
Normalized at this point. Well, let's go back out to your phone calls now.
I'm fired up from that call from Scott.
At least he warned us he was going to curse.
Please don't curse, guys, if you call in.
We love it. We appreciate the energy, the exuberance, the passion people bring.
Trust me, folks. If I can't curse, you can't curse.
If anybody could curse here, I would be speaking like a sailor right now.
So I don't get to do that.
I have to try to come up with big words to express how I'm feeling.
So you have to as well.
But fantastic stuff from Scott.
Love hearing people who have been listening for a while and been involved in the background for so long.
Let's go to...
Heck, why not?
Let's go to Grant in Australia.
Because he wants to talk about Tartaria, a topic we've touched on on this program, but honestly only in a mocking way.
What is Tartaria, Grant?
What are your comments about it?
unidentified
Hi, Harrison. It's Grant here.
I'm the guy who rang in.
I took...
DNA Force Plus and X2 and stopped drooling on my pillow.
harrison smith
You remember me? Yes, sir.
unidentified
I remember that actually. Yeah, I'm still having me X2 and me DNA Force Plus and I'm doing great.
So I did a deep...
I was on YouTube a year ago and actually I was in a game chat room and someone typed in who were the Tartarians and I was like, what?
So I typed in who were the Tartarians in a Browser search.
And there was like 10 videos on YouTube about it.
So I watched those. And apparently Tartaria was north of China and India and to the east of Europe four or five hundred years ago.
And apparently it was...
They built the Great...
This is what I've... Apparently there's openings on the Tartaria side or the Tartary side of the Great Wall of China.
They had a flag.
If you type in...
Cartarian flag. They had a flag that was an owl on a yellow background.
So apparently it was Genghis Khan's, the result of Genghis Khan's efforts.
They sort of developed technologies and stuff and built an empire there.
So what I've learned on this dive was apparently there was like in the oceans above that area, north of China, There was something occurred there, whether it was a meteor stroke or what, and it sent a heap of mud.
It was like a massive flood or something.
harrison smith
The mud flood. I've heard of the mud flood, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah, so apparently the mud flood was tied in with that, and then it's all been brushed under the rug.
There's still old maps. If you type in map of Tartaria, there's like all these really detailed maps.
And yeah, that's...
They were a big empire.
They were technologically advanced.
And they were wiped out seemingly by the hand of God.
And it's all been covered up by historians.
You know how they cover things up.
So I went back to YouTube a couple of weeks later to go over it again.
And all those videos were gone.
As we know. Right.
They do that. Right.
When they don't want you to know about something.
harrison smith
You know, it's the type of thing where it's like, yeah, I don't believe this.
Yeah, I don't think this is true.
No, I don't think that. And then it's like, and YouTube censors it.
And I'm like, all right, maybe there's something to this then.
If they're censoring it, you know, maybe I should look into it.
unidentified
Yeah. And the whole owl for a flag thing.
You know, the owl flag.
harrison smith
Right, like Bullock and...
unidentified
Yeah. Yeah, well, but I mean, you know, the...
harrison smith
Athena's symbol was an owl and Athens gave us democracy.
I mean, you know, there are these worldwide symbols that are recognized and, you know, they just relate back to their conception in nature.
But it's interesting stuff.
Thank you for talking about it. Now, if people want to go out and do their own research, I haven't done much research, so I can't really talk about Tartaria that much other than to say it's no Atlantis.
I believe in Atlantis, not Tataria.
We're going to go to some fun calls this segment.
I want to touch on a couple other stories that relate to the Great Reset and topics we've been talking about this whole week.
We all know the saying from the Great Reset, the Build Back Better UN 2020 agenda.
You'll own nothing, you'll have no privacy, and you'll be happy.
We talk a lot about the you'll own nothing aspect of that, since it is communism slash the rental slash gig economy.
And debt. Debt is really the whole purpose there.
You will own nothing because everything that you own will either be immediately consumed, it'll be food, you know, you can buy chips and drinks, you'll own that until you eat it, or clothes that wear out.
You'll own a few little things like that, but everything of any permanence will be rented through debt.
And your education will be saddled with debt by the time you're ready to work.
You'll work to work off that debt in a sort of indentured servitude system in which you are forced to rent all the products that you need from the company that employs you, that owns your debt for educating you.
It's a very simplistic yet new version of feudalism.
But that second part is equally important.
No privacy. And ties in, of course, to the debt-controlled economy because that's the enforcement mechanism that they're going to use.
They're going to surveil your purchases and where you go and all that stuff.
This is a pretty incredible story by Michelle Malkin at cnsnews.com.
Beware of big bathroom brother.
She says, nine years ago I warned readers about iLock biometric readers adopted by Florida schools to track them on buses.
Under the guise of fighting guns and vaping, countless schools this year are now installing surveillance sensors in bathrooms that can spy and record students' alleged aggressions and red flag spoken keywords.
Eight years ago, she says, I warned readers about a company called Teaching Strategies Gold that created an early childhood assessment system for social, emotional, physical, language, and cognitive development that documents student behaviors with video, audio files, journals, and photos, which are then uploaded to a central database cloud.
In Jefferson County, Colorado, TS Gold was able to monitor and shape preschoolers' bathroom trips, hand-washing habits, and other, quote, socially acceptable behavior.
Three years ago, she says, I warned readers about a company called eHallPass and the increasing student health data mining hijacking America's schools.
As a report at the time, my then-high school sophomore son's public high school in Colorado Springs told every student to download eHallPass, which is seamlessly connected to every student's mandatory Google login to track how much time students spend in the bathroom.
It was all done in the name of safety, of course, with no parental consent.
biometric surveillance edu technology has spread rapidly with fingerprints and facial recognition tools proliferating worldwide on k-12 and college campuses as well as a result of the covid global track and trace regime and pandemic profiteers in 2020 she says
i noted the spread of electronic beacons to track student movements and apps like google class dojo which mines intimate student behavioral data and creates long-term psychological profiles that can be shared and sold to third parties unbeknownst to kids and their families.
This, of course, of course, being financed and fostered and carried out through the public school system and your tax dollars.
The Pioneer Institute reported that the government at all levels had spent $30 billion in 2018 on such intrusive, brainwashing, social-emotional learning surveillance in K-12.
Over the years, my incessant warnings about edutech surveillance machines have been mocked, belittled, attacked, and ignored as baseless paranoia, conspiracy-mongering by the likes of the anti-right, anti-white, anti-parent Southern Poverty Law Center.
Now, the truth is permeating the mainstream.
And the Arizona Informer tweeted this week that Pinnacle High School in Paradise Valley, Arizona, will use e-hall pass to track social distancing and other student movements with no parental consent.
Long story short, get them used to it as a child, and they won't realize how weird it is once they're an adult to have their every move, every conversation, every interaction documented, catalogued, and graded.
unidentified
Thank you.
harrison smith
Incredible. That's the purposeful and designed and organized and systemic spying.
But what about the accidental violations of your privacy?
Amazon, it says, has fixed a high-severity vulnerability in the Amazon Ring app for Android that could have allowed hackers to download customers' saved camera recordings.
The vulnerability was discovered by security researchers through the application security testing company Checkmarks, which found and disclosed the vulnerability to Amazon on May 1, 2022.
Amazon fixed the bug shortly after it was disclosed.
So the Android Ring app has had over 10 million downloads and is used by people worldwide.
So, again, this is just the future, right?
They're going to want you to put a camera...
First, they're going to increase crime rates.
So then you feel the need to get a security camera.
So then you get a security camera.
Then they go and offer you one inside the house.
Then they don't do their due diligence to actually provide the security for that.
And you have your private, intimate...
Internal activities available to any and all with the hacker abilities to get in.
Pretty incredible. And we have even more but I want to get to phone calls here.
I remember that video of the little girl in her room when her security camera starts talking to her and it's a hacker going, I'm watching you.
I can see you.
Remember how I just was like, wow, that was weird, and just moved on?
As if it's just not a big deal that the cameras that you have chosen to put in your own home are not only able to be watched and spied on and recorded by strangers...
In your child's bedroom.
But they can also then talk to your child through that device.
Remember this story was big for about four days and then it just went away?
When it's probably the most horrific story that has ever come out of this topic.
Pretty incredible. Alright. Let's go to the phone calls now.
We've got Patty in Boston who just wants to make a ridiculous claim.
Thanks for calling in, Patty. You say there's no actual communists in America?
patty in boston
Yeah, I mean, there's like six of them, but nobody cares and nobody listens to them and they don't have any political clout in the country.
What I'm saying is I think that we have to start paying attention to the definitions of words, right?
So I can say that someone like Mitt Romney is a Republican and then someone like Louie Gohmert is a Republican, but they are drastically different, right?
But they're on one side of the aisle, but they're not the same, right?
If you look at somebody like Say, you know, Kyrsten Sinema or Joe Manchin, and then you look at someone like Bernie Sanders, well, they're in the same party, but they're drastically different.
What we're doing right now is we're calling everybody on the right a fascist and everybody on the left a communist.
That is just politically stupid.
I wish we could learn that there are levels to this stuff.
You know what I mean? Like, let's stop calling everybody who's to the right of us the fascist and the left of us the communist.
I mean, we're getting dumber as a country, and it bothers me.
harrison smith
But here's a little bit of an issue, though.
We have history that we can look at and see the way that all of this is rolled out.
I mean, if you were to go back in time and be in the Cuban Revolution and see that the Cuban revolutionaries were saying we're not communists, we're socialists, But you know that how the future rolls out is that they were communist and now that country is a slave state where they'll kill you for trying to escape.
I mean they aren't calling themselves communist but their ideology is communistic and the entire point of socialism, according to Karl Marx himself, was to pave the way to communism.
Just because you put the word democratic in front of socialist doesn't mean you're not a socialist and just because you say it's socialist doesn't mean you're not pursuing communistic policies, right?
patty in boston
Well, but I'd have to push back on that, and I would say, okay, you know, I understand that the Marxist ideology is that, you know, socialism is a stepping stone to communism.
I get that. You know, we all understand that, or I hope we all understand that.
But in any event, you can look at countries in, you know, like Norway and Sweden, you know, and Finland, who basically have socialist, you know, democratic socialist, you know, situations.
They have not progressed to communism.
So it doesn't just because Marx said that that's what we should be doing, that socialism is a stepping stone to communism doesn't mean you have to actually do it.
harrison smith
Okay, but there's still communistic policies that they're pursuing, right?
unidentified
In Norway and Sweden?
harrison smith
Well, sure, or Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
I mean, they want centralized control through the government.
They want a more powerful federal government that has more oversight, more control, and has the ability to do things like set price regulations and determine how much things are able to be sold for.
And they're going after businesses, corporations, for charging what they need to be competitive on the market.
patty in boston
Trump wanted to do that, too, though. I wanted to do that, too.
He said that he thought the government should be able to negotiate with, Medicare should be able to negotiate with Big Pharma to regulate the price.
harrison smith
Yeah, but Medicare is a government program, so of course it should be able to.
Look, Patty, just search Marxism on Twitter and tell me there's no communists in this country.
greg reese
It's a fantasy. We Americans are divided by political party, religion, and social class to keep us from ever figuring out the real cancer in American culture, the cause of nearly every American war and the mother of today's corruption.
unidentified
It's the Federal Reserve, okay?
0.5% of the citizens of this country own more assets than the bottom 90%.
That's all happened over the last 10 years since 2008.
The Federal Reserve, by the way, that's owned not by the American people, a central bank that's owned by 24 prime brokers, being J.P. Morgan and Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.
How does that work? We don't need to audit the Fed.
We need to end the Federal Reserve.
The Federal Reserve has usurped, has usurped, has usurped its power and the power of the American people and our elective representatives.
And no, they do not have the consent of the government.
We will not comply, we will not submit, and it must be ended.
greg reese
The Federal Reserve Banking System introduced the most destructive form of usury the modern world has ever known.
A debt-based currency designed to rob and enslave entire nations.
The Federal Reserve prints money out of thin air.
And this has given the crooks who wield it the power and influence to create their own corporate government within the United States.
And the IRS has made every hard-working American into a criminal, guilty until proven innocent.
The IRS was always seen as unconstitutional.
But in 1913, the powers of the IRS were weaponized and made de facto law by the 16th Amendment, never properly ratified, which states that the government can collect a percentage of everyone's income.
Over 50% of Americans refuse this unconstitutional amendment, but the IRS will come after you.
They have a long reputation for targeting religious groups and political opponents, and it's only looking to get much worse.
The Inflation Reduction Act guarantees more inflation with the billions of dollars required to be printed out of thin air.
And while local police are defunded so that violent criminals are set free, the IRS is being funded to hire over 80,000 new agents to make sure everyone is paying their taxes.
And they have recently bought 5 million rounds of ammunition.
They are building their own police force to execute search warrants, make arrests, and exert the use of deadly force.
While many liberal progressives may argue that the crimes of the Federal Reserve are necessary, they are hurting people worldwide.
Because it's the world's reserve currency, 40% of international transactions are in USD. And as the Fed continues pushing the illusion of a strong dollar, the rest of the world is made poor.
If the Americans don't remedy the situation soon, then the international community has a reasonable excuse to get involved.
The entire international fiat system is collapsing, and the crooks responsible will be selling us a new centralized digital currency, which is obviously another trap.
But the alternative is simple.
Restore the constitutional republic to promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty.
With sound money backed by gold and silver.
And the Fed, the IRS, the CIA, the FBI. It's written right there on your $100 reserve note.
Whenever any form of government becomes destructive, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it and to institute new government that will most benefit their safety and happiness.
unidentified
What is the highest federal income tax any American should have to pay?
Well, we should have the lowest tax that we've ever had.
harrison smith
Share that link at manned.video, folks.
We'll be back with Matt Aritt on the other side.
unidentified
Stay tuned. Alright, welcome back.
harrison smith
Ladies and gentlemen, third hour of the American Journal has begun, brought to you entirely by InfoWarsStore.com.
My guest this hour is Matt Arrett.
He's a journalist and co-founder of the Rising Tide Foundation.
He's also the editor-in-chief of Canadian Patriot Review and a senior fellow at the American University of Moscow and BRI expert for Tactical Talk.
Matthew has published scientific articles with 21st Century Science and Technology, Principia Scientifica, and is a regular author on several political and cultural websites, including the Los Angeles Review of Books, China Channel, Strategic Culture, and Oriental Review.
He's with us today to discuss the second volume of his recently published book series called The Clash of the Two Americas.
This... Volume titled Open vs.
Close Systems Collide.
You can find his website at risingtidefoundation.net.
Thank you so much for joining us once again, Matt.
matthew ehret
Hey, thank you for having me back on.
harrison smith
It was a pleasure. Well, and last time we talked about the first volume, which was sort of the older history.
And so the volumes are slightly in, you know, order of time.
So now the second volume is more about the last 100, 200 years or so.
Would you say that's right? What is embodied in the second volume?
matthew ehret
Well, I tried to use sort of bookends, key moments, singularities in history that really shaped the contour of the collective experience we have over the past 250 years, which itself has been entirely shaped by not only the breakthrough of the American Revolution itself as a phenomenon in world history.
And again, I'm a Canadian. We missed out on that revolution.
We didn't choose to accept the Ben Franklin Challenge, and we stayed little and obedient to the crown.
As a consequence, Canada has been used.
As I go through, as a beachhead to undermine and destroy the United States, by and large, with small exceptions to the rule throughout that 200-plus year experience.
The thing I tried to do in Volume 2 is to begin with the assassination of McKinley's one bookend, and what changed in the character of U.S. foreign policy and internal policy with his murder, And the other bookend of that period was the murder of Bobby Kennedy.
And the coup d'etat, which in many ways I think it really should be thought of as a coup d'etat that was officially put in place with the 1968 murder of Martin Luther King Jr., Bobby Kennedy, that changed completely the character of the United States into this type of closed system...
Colony, this sort of martial lord for a higher managerial class that has no affiliation with the U.S. Constitution or national character whatsoever, which has used the U.S. as an instrument to carry out a reconquering of the world, but itself is not an American empire per se.
And this is the—when I refer to closed system, because the title of Volume 2 is Open Versus Closed Systems Collide— I try to get across that the character of the best part of the United States has been an open system, moral and philosophical outlook.
It's always premised on the idea of improving, perfecting the life of people in generations to come afterwards through scientific and technological progress, the behavior of the monetary system in accordance with that need to make life better and applying new discoveries into the productive process that allows us to leap beyond the limits to growth.
And the closed system idea has been an idea of empire, that all that exists now as resources is all that could exist, which has to be managed by a master class above nations who manage the levers of production and consumption in a world of diminishing returns.
And this is really what took over with the Kissinger, you know, the entire Neo-Malthusian revival in the early 70s.
harrison smith
Right, and it's pretty obvious that this is the mindset of the elites just from the way that they comport themselves.
You just get a sense of that ideology when they talk about things.
I always think about Bill Gates wanting to be this super villain and control everything.
And the way they see the world is like computer chips.
They want parts that perform functions that never deviate from those functions and do exactly as they're supposed to do with quantifiable and measurable inputs and results.
And they just want everything.
They want to freeze everything. The weather is another good example, right?
The weather's constantly changing and yet they want to somehow put a stop to that.
They want to stop climate from changing ever again when in reality what we need is a more open system that can move and flow.
And the way I was thinking about it was they're trying to build a pleasure barge that can only exist on perfectly placid lake water when in reality the earth and human nature is constantly changing.
We need a vessel as a society.
We need a civilization that can handle the waves and the vicissitudes and all of the chaos.
But they would rather try to tame the ocean than build a ship that could survive on the waters.
I mean, is this sort of paralleling what you're saying?
matthew ehret
Yeah, that was very well said.
Yeah, no, I love that. No, these people are—it's sort of like a religion of stasis.
I think that when you're dealing with these types of control freaks who are just, they religiously want and glorify this idea of feudalism.
Maybe today, you know, they have a technocratic twist, but really they, that's why they call a lot of their institutions things like the roundtable movement.
They've got a glorified idea of the medieval roundtable, the knights, you know, That all lived in their castles with their upper crust aristocrats having orgies or whatever else while the talking cows just knew their place and didn't question things and just adapted to the controlled environment that they were expected to be a part of without education, without really, you know, maybe a 30-year life expectancy.
And that was just the way things were.
And people were happy.
They owned nothing.
And, yeah, these guys really—the oligarchal mindset really is based on this romanticization of stasis as a norm rather than acknowledging that the universe, all evidence that the universe shows us is that change is constant.
And not only just an irrational random change but a directed change towards self-perfectibility and creativity.
There's purpose in the universe.
There's a flow and a direction in the evolution of new living things and planets and galaxies.
I mean, everything just shows us that the universe is a vibrant, living, creative, loving place.
And they're just imposing their own ivory tower models They're mathematical models onto the universe and trying to get the universe to conform to their bias.
harrison smith
And, of course, that's why they are frustrated at every turn.
It's impossible to do what they're trying to do, and yet they're not dissuaded by that fact.
And it's so interesting that, as you look back in history, you see the same phenomenon that I was just noticing from the headlines out today, from climate change to the lack of privacy that people have as they want to enforce correct social behavior as if they have the answers to all this stuff.
So let's talk about the Roundtable because, you know, as much history as I think that I know, you have so many things in this book that I'm like, well, I've never heard of this, so I must be missing a big chunk of a story I thought I understood pretty well.
The Roundtable movement was one of the ones that I highlighted actually before you came on that I wanted to ask you about because you say that they helped to orchestrate the hyperinflation that struck Weimar Germany and the rise of the League of Nations.
This is discussed in Chapter 5 of your book.
What was the Roundtable movement for those of us that don't know?
matthew ehret
I highly recommend for people who want to dig into this, Carol Quigley's work, especially in the Anglo-American establishment, is fantastic.
It's providing a really good master key, but the Roundtable movement was a think tank set up with the funds that were ill-begotten from Cecil Rhodes, who had managed the rape of Africa, the creation of De Beers, and a whole bunch of other corporations that exist to this very day in different forms.
And basically he was a devotee of the idea of restoring the British Empire to its grandeur following and also recapturing the United States as the belligerent colony.
He, using also some assisted funds from, I think it was Nathaniel Rothschild and a few other city of London oligarchs, created a basket of money to reorganize the entire British Empire by creating scholarships to brainwash talented young people created a basket of money to reorganize the entire British Empire by creating scholarships to brainwash talented young people from around the Commonwealth in Oxford and then bring them back in managerial positions to advance a multi-generational agenda
And the roundtable aspect was a think tank, a set of think tanks that took form, especially with the creation of the Chatham House, the Royal Institute for International Affairs.
That was part of the process in 1919 in Paris at the Majesté Hotel, where they created...
That would be the mothership, and there would be branches.
In the case of the United States, it was the Council on Foreign Relations.
I know I have 27 seconds.
As the American branch of that British organization, which Hillary Clinton today calls the mothership.
The CFR. And in Canada, Australia, other countries, there were other branches.
So that's the quickest way I could say what the roundtable was.
harrison smith
Well, we'll get back into it on the other side.
I'm just rapidly taking notes here as you're talking because there's a lot of stuff we got to touch on and expand on on the other side with Matt Arrett, risingtidefoundation.net.
We'll be right back. All right, folks, welcome back.
My guest is Matt Arrett.
His latest book...
The latest book series is The Clash of Two Americas.
We're talking today about the second volume, which is titled Open vs.
Closed Systems Collide.
This volume ranges from the assassination of McKinley to the assassination of Robert Kennedy as the two bookend events to frame our story.
And Franklin Delano Roosevelt plays an outsized role in this and his Great New Deal.
A lot of really interesting perspectives on FDR that...
Blur the lines for me, at least, a little bit.
And I want to talk to you about that, but just touching on what we were saying previously about all these organizations that were founded, and the importance of understanding these, because you often hear these labels.
Everybody's heard of a Rhodes Scholar, right?
Wasn't Bill Clinton a Rhodes Scholar?
And that's just treated as, oh, it's like an appellation.
It's like, it's just a gold star next to their name.
Well, no, it actually means something.
It means they went and were educated in a certain way by a That has certain ideologies and means that it's trying to achieve or ends that is trying to achieve and means that it uses to achieve those.
You mentioned Chatham House.
For Infowarrior's audience, they may recognize the term Chatham House because the Chatham House rules are what they apply to organizations or meetings like Bilderberg and the CFR, which means you're not allowed to write anything down.
You are sworn to secrecy by going in there and talking about this.
Can you talk a little bit about the Chatham House rules and how they're used and applied to this wider spectrum of globalist organizations?
matthew ehret
Well, I... I think getting at the character of Chatham House per se is very useful.
And I mean, the idea of the need for secrecy is obviously a big part of what makes conspiracies work.
I see there you have a little page of the basics created in 1927.
Yeah, I mean, the whole idea of keeping things off the book, like you said, this was at the heart of the Bilderberger organization and the idea of keeping media out and just having people free to talk and organize themselves more openly.
Chatham House itself, look, I think one of the points to get in mind here is that people really think that there's an American empire that replaced the British Empire.
That is a mythology. And even Kissinger himself, at a Chatham House speech in 1982, in May 10th, delivered an address where he said during his time as Secretary of State under Nixon, he had spent more time keeping the British Foreign Office more updated and brief than he did his own State Department.
In that same address, and I included that in the appendix of Volume 2, he goes through the two opposing post-World War II outlooks contained by Churchill on the one side and Franklin Roosevelt on the other.
Thank you.
Literally hundreds of world leaders who had been colonized and abused for generations and presented programs for the greening of African deserts, for providing the most advanced technology to Latin American countries, Brazil and others, and really working with a China-Russia-US alliance that would push out the British as a dominant force in the world.
So it was a very different spirit and intention that was subverted by the forces of Churchill, who Stalin even said, you know, he presumed were the same forces that poisoned Roosevelt.
And, you know, there was never an autopsy done either.
So no one's ever going to really know the answer to that.
But that's what Stalin told Roosevelt's son, Elliot, in an interview in the 50s.
So, yeah, the Chatham House is an underappreciated branch of reconquering the recolonization of the United States as part of the story of the 20th century that has not really been told properly, I think.
harrison smith
And it just, you know, it's another thing about history.
The less you know about it, the more black and white it is.
I mean, if you don't know a lot about history, it's pretty easy to say, these are the good guys, these are the bad guys.
Green New Deal, that was a government program, and it spent a lot of money, so that was bad.
You actually get into the history, and you go, whoa, this is way more complicated than I thought.
There's a lot more moving parts, and it's a lot more nebulous and unsure, really, of what the intentions were of the people involved.
Because, you know, the New Deal is something that ostensibly is somebody that likes smaller government, that doesn't want big government programs.
My knee-jerk reaction is to be against it.
But then you look at what it did, and you look at the dams it created and the energy, and I enjoy all of these things, so can I really dislike this?
And you say here that Franklin Roosevelt was in a battle to stop a banker's dictatorship.
first with the sabotage of the London conference in 1933 and his simultaneous war against wall street at home.
And you talk about the new deal and the economic reforms that allowed the USA to finally heal from the orchestrated depression begun in 1929.
So you talk a little bit more about FDR and the reason he is such a central figure in this volume.
matthew ehret
Yeah, well, you know, the great reset is not a new thing there.
It's not like they've been planning only to get this one moment here in 2022.
There's been several attempts at getting and finalizing Proto Great Resets, New World Orders.
There are several major attempts. And I identify three primary attempts in the course of that book.
And the Bankers' Conference of 1933 was the second major attempt to get rid of nation-states, install a global banker's dictatorship centered in the city of London and the Bank of International Settlements at that time.
That was a 65-nation conference in London to deal with the global ramifications of the Great Depression and It required that the United States be on board, and after about six months, Franklin Roosevelt essentially torpedoed it, pulled out the U.S. delegation from all discussion, and made a big defense of the role and purpose of the sovereign nation state, which people on both sides of the aisle, Democrat and Republican alike, there were traitors and patriots on both sides, just like today.
Well, today maybe less so on the Democrat side.
Anyway, but at the time there was.
And they worked very hard to sabotage the League of Nations earlier, back in 1919 when it was first pushed by Woodrow Wilson.
Harding was a big opponent of that, and he died by oyster a little bit too early in 2024.
Roosevelt, like I said, he literally saved the world by breaking that conference in 1933 at the same time that he broke up the Wall Street banks, put hundreds of leading bankers in prison for their role in initiating the Great Depression, doing insider trading, paybacking.
People on things like the J.P. Morgan preferreds clients lists were made public during the Pecor commissions that he empowered.
And he basically took back control of the issuance of credit by installing his own man, an industrialist, Mariner Eccles, into the head of the Federal Reserve, forcing it to behave for the first time in like three decades as an instrument in some way, even though there was always sabotage against the New Deal throughout the entire time. even though there was always sabotage against the New Deal And he took the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and made it serve again as a lending mechanism to small and medium enterprises, as well as creating things like the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Rural Electrification Project,
and things that we can take for granted today that really upgraded the quality of life and power of productivity of the nation as a whole, giving and things that we can take for granted today that really upgraded the quality of life and power of productivity of the nation as a whole, giving it the ability to finally put down the third attempt at a new world order, which came later, with the Hitler fascist Frankenstein monster, which was really a transhumanist eugenics agenda, to
monster which was really a transhumanist eugenics agenda to create a new religion of eugenics as a governing ideology run by you know people like prescott bush and what he was working for um as far as an anglo-american bankers cartel at the top with strong men enforcers like muslin hitler franco and others at the bottom or smedley butler who they wanted to have in as the u.s fascist to expose that uh that coup against roosevelt in 34 so that was it right yeah and i
harrison smith
And I was going to mention, right, that you have that Bankers Conference 1933.
The very next year, you have the attempted coup by General Smedley Butler.
And suddenly things start to click into place, and you realize the real motives behind so much of this stuff.
More with Matt Arad on the other side.
Do not go anywhere, folks.
We'll be right back.
unidentified
You came down to this southern town last night.
harrison smith
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
My guest is Matthew Errett, journalist, co-founder of the Rising Tide Foundation.
We're talking about the second volume of his book series, The Clash of Two Americas.
The second volume is about open versus closed systems.
It's called Open versus Closed Systems Collide.
And you can find it on risingtidefoundation.net or just search the web for The Clash of the Two Americas.
And, you know, the problem I'm having here, Matt, is there's too many things I want to talk to you about.
I'm not trying to come up with topics.
I'm trying to widow down, you know, exactly what the important things are to talk about in their...
Act 4 in this book is referred to as an intermezzo, but I think it will hold a lot of interest for the InfoWars audience.
I'll read this little summary paragraph and I think people will see why.
You say, Act 4 serves as an intermezzo of sorts by outlining five chapters that aim to provide insight into the nature of epistemological warfare as a tool of empire.
It is only by understanding the battle over the mind, both of the individuals as well as group dynamics, that things such as MKUltra, the CIA's Congress for Cultural Freedom, or the growth of the cult of artificial intelligence in the post-World War II age can make any sense.
There's like maybe 10 words in there that strike a bell with me, and I go, ooh, I got to know more about this.
So you go all the way almost to the present day in volume to at least well into the modern era.
How big of a role is this epistemological warfare, how big of a role does this have in our current world and how we got to where we are now?
matthew ehret
Yeah, it's big. No, I think that it's everything.
I mean, but it's not even just in our current world.
You can't know anything about world history.
I think, you know, anybody who's tried to make sense of anything regarding even ancient Egypt and ancient Greece and Rome wouldn't get very far if they didn't understand that there was a battle over the mind and how people perceive their own...
Like, animals have their own identity that they don't select.
They just are. Human beings can choose our identity.
We have that aspect of choice.
And so what Plato does in the Allegory of the Cave, by demonstrating the mechanism of the elite, or the self-professed elite, to try to keep their targeted victim populations locked in a belief and sense certainty, which he expresses by belief in the shadows of the cave wall, with the upper managerial sort of strata represented by those carrying the puppets, casting the shadows.
Oh, there it is. And the actual light of day being representative of truth, the actual ability to see with the mind's eye and not with the physical eye, right?
Looking through reason and the filter of reason and discovery, that is something that is outside the cave.
But people, to be a true philosopher requires not that you just go outside the cave and look down on the idiots in the cave, but rather that you go back in at risk of your own life.
And Plato even says that in Book 7 of The Republic, that people will hate you, they might even kill you, but you love them because you love the potential of what they could be and not where they're at by being victimized by an elite, by an oligarchy.
So he basically, I mean, this is the mechanism for all of world history.
And in the post-World War II age, that took on a certain expression with, I think, Julian Huxley did a...
Went pretty far in his UNESCO founding document that I know you've talked about in your show, where he makes a point that we have to make the unthinkable become thinkable.
Of course, he's referring openly to eugenics in world government, the abolishment of sovereign nation states, and the acceptance of eugenics as the queen of all sciences, the science of population control.
But people find it distasteful because of what they saw the consequence being in its political acceptance under Nazi Germany and other things.
So they had to retool it, and the retooling took several expressions, transhumanism being one of those things that Julian Huxley, along with Pierre Teil de Chaldein, formulated in 1954 as one aspect, but they also went on to create things like the environmental movement, as it is known today, at least, under the World Wildlife Fund, which was co-founded by Huxley, as well as Prince Bernhardt and Prince Philip Montbatten in 1961.
And a variety of other things.
So, MKUltra, different CIA-funded operations to induce a sort of idea that you make your own reality.
There is no objective reality.
The idea of going out and exploring the universe is the old wisdom.
The new wisdom is exploring your inner feelings as the inner universe.
And that was really what was targeting those born after World War II. So get them young.
We can't get the older generation, so let's focus on the babies.
harrison smith
Right, right. And we see that tactic playing out on a daily basis.
And one interesting question or connection to this that you talk about in Chapter 28, just as you say they believe there is no objective truth, they also apparently believe there is no objective beauty.
And it's one of the things that you see...
It doesn't make any sense, really, how beauty or architecture or painting and art can have a political aspect.
I mean, if something's beautiful, it should be beautiful no matter what you believe about taxation.
But there's something very inherent where I can see a building and go, that looks like a right-wing building.
I mean, it's weird, but you cover this in Chapter 28.
You ask the question, what does aesthetics have to do with political freedom?
What do aesthetics have to do with political freedom?
matthew ehret
Yeah, the subcaption there is Ask the CIA. And the point is to get across the Congress for Cultural Freedom as the 1949 innovation by a grouping of powerful misanthropes who founded this operation to promote the idea that the art of the free capitalist world would be an art of hedonism, irrationalism, governed by pure emotional liberty, unbounded by the tyranny of reason.
And they made this Manichean dualism around the arts, premised around the presumption that the communist part of the world, that would be the other side of the Iron Curtain, formulated again by not a U.S. policy, but rather by Winston Churchill.
He was the founder of the Iron Curtain speech.
That the communist part of the world engaged in arts that were literalist, tyrannical in their forced logic and not free.
And so by creating this schism, you basically poured a lot of money and it justified money being poured into more, you know, things like Jackson Pollock random splatterings of ink or Mark Rothko paintings or Stravinsky irrationalism or atonalism in the music or architecture that was ultimately things like Jackson Pollock random splatterings of ink or Mark Rothko paintings or Stravinsky irrationalism or atonalism in Because we are free.
We're emotionally free. And so that took on a monstrous mutation throughout this 60s, 70s, 80s, and it just got worse and worse.
And I think that Trump as well as Xi Jinping, both around the same time in 2019, both came out saying that no more ugly postmodern buildings were only going to focus on classical aesthetics.
Trump referring to the Greco-Roman, Xi Jinping to the more classical styles that also contain the golden section.
That's when you look at the Greco-Roman buildings that animated and inspired the Founding Fathers.
Was the idea of the golden section being something that shows a certain divinity in nature, which we find appealing.
There's certain musical harmonics as well that the soul just is enlivened by.
Certain other things that are dissonant, like the Devil's Interval, the Doe or C and F sharp keys played at the same time as a dissonance for a scientific as well as aesthetic reason.
So we find in the visual space as well as audible space, certain tones, proportions that enliven and certain that that dampen the soul's enthusiasm.
And this is, I think, again, something which has been known by the oligarchy.
You know, let's just say oligarchy for now and has been used to keep us in a state of of not being in touch with the the the coordination between our souls, our hearts, our minds together.
harrison smith
Right.
It's something it's something that I think I know I personally I think a lot of us sort of feel instinctually.
And then you actually give sort of the historical and academic backing as to how we got here.
All I know is that when I am walking down the street and I see a big, and they're everywhere in Austin, you can't escape from them.
And you know they cost millions of dollars, and they're big statues that somebody's poured a lot of money and time into building, and it's just a blob.
It's just a big squiggly blob.
And you just look at that and you go...
This is an attack on me.
I don't know. I can't quantify it exactly, but I feel attacked that I have to look at this eyesore knowing that I put so much time in it.
When, you know, what used to be there maybe was a statue of a horse, while simplistic and it didn't have the, you know, aesthetic or modern contemporary bona fides that this weird, you know, abstract piece of art does.
It just... It was just nice to look at, and it was a pretty statue of a horse.
And then I see this disgusting blob of a statue, and I go, there's a political attack at me here, even if all I can see from it is that I don't like what the statue on the corner of my street is anymore.
So I think that's absolutely fascinating, and again, it ties directly into everything else that we're talking about, which is the corruption and destruction of human nature at the benefit of the elites who want to destroy us.
All right, folks, welcome back.
Matthew Arad is my guest.
We're talking about his book, the second volume in the Clash of the Two Americas series.
This volume titled Open vs.
Closed Systems Collide.
And I'm really just enjoying getting to ask him questions about the topics that he covers that pique my interest.
And I think the InfoWarriors will appreciate.
And so now I want to talk about Chapter 31, Matt, where you feature the story of the Trilateral Commission, takeover of the USA during the 1970s, and you tell the story of the stripping of American industry in preparation for a new age of depopulation and war.
And I think any observer of American history has to see the 1970s as a total...
The trajectory of our country changed.
Maybe it was the high watermark that we've just receded from since then.
But what happened in the 1970s with the gold, you know, getting off of the gold-backed currency and the Vietnam War?
Like what happened in the 70s that threw us off our game so much?
matthew ehret
Yeah, that was the – I think of it as the Malthusian coup moment.
I mean, that was a full-spectrum coup.
There was not one part of our lives that was not touched by this.
It had to happen over the dead bodies of people who would resist to their last breath.
People like, like I said, Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Charles de Gaulle didn't die, but he was ousted in a foreign-directed sort of color revolution process in France in 1969.
There was a—it's a big list of murdered statesmen who were anti-Malthusians.
But 71 was a big initiating point.
The Trilateral Commission was put online in 73 officially, but it operated under a manifesto written by Zbigniew Brzezinski called Between Two Ages, America and the Technotronic Age, where he basically outlines this Fourth Industrial Revolution ideology of a new managerial class, you know, managing the new order of democracies that would not really be democracy but only a name.
And how the US had to navigate through that new evolutionary transition of humanity to that new epoch.
Now, this coincided with the creation as well.
You know, January 1971 was the year that the World Economic Forum was set up by a student of Kissinger from Harvard.
Now, Klaus Schwab was in a CIA-sponsored program under Kissinger in Harvard, and he was just selected as the front man to put this thing online.
You had the InterAlpha Group of Banks, January 1971, under Jacob Rothschild's direction that consolidated a new banking cartel of private banks operating in strategic nations that would then coordinate the The nation's stripping of regulation that had been built up since the New Deal,
really, and the idea of a new age of consumerism as a new cult of worshipping money and thinking very myopically without any consideration of the past or future, and the merger and acquisition of a private banking and financier oligarchy over nation states during the 70s, 80s, 90s.
So all of this happened at the same time.
And by the time Carter was in, I think almost every member of the cabinet under Jimmy Carter, including Paul Volcker, were all trilateral reserve members, trilateral commission members, which had its own idea of creating a master slave society with the U.S. being, like I said, a consumer society which had its own idea of creating a master slave society with the U.S. being, like I said, a consumer society of useless eaters that would not produce for themselves, China being the slave labor sweatshop society that would not ever have enough money to consume
They would never develop beyond a certain limited scope.
That was part of the agreement for the one China policy that brought in the Club of Rome computer modeling for population control in China, which China still has not been able to heal from.
But the idea was under Kissinger's mandate, that was the forever model.
You know, you'd have the haves and the have-nots under this H.G. Wells type of LOI, Moorlach, Division of Humanity, with the supranational oligarchy above nations controlling the levers of production and consumption.
So that was it.
harrison smith
Oh, just that.
It is a huge topic, but again, it sheds a light that you aren't getting from any other source.
And I think it goes towards explaining a misconception that a lot of people have, because when I'm talking to my friends, they often point to, and they're not historians necessarily, but they have this conception that it was the 1980s and it was Ronald Reagan that unfettered capitalism.
And all of the problems we see today with the power of corporations and the exploitation of labor all goes back to big bad Ronald Reagan and his deregulation platform.
When in reality, you can look and there's, of course, the wonderful website WTF happened in 1971, where they show 1971 as this distinct inflection point where so many problems started, right?
Between the reward for the average worker versus the pay for the CEO, right?
This is the growth and productivity versus hourly compensation, real GDP, real wages and trade policies.
I mean, a lot of it started in 1971.
Obviously, a lot of that had to do with the gold standard.
But do you think there's been a misconception now about Ronald Reagan being responsible for the sort of corporate oligarchy that we see around now because of deregulation.
I mean, that's a simplistic way of looking at it.
Is it just a totally incorrect way of looking at it?
matthew ehret
Yeah, Reagan wasn't a bad guy at all.
I think he was a legit patriot.
He was just really dumb about his advisors and about economics.
So he just, you know, he went along with a policy he didn't fully understand.
He wasn't a Malthusian.
But that point in 1971 is key.
That was the detaching of the U.S. dollar from the gold reserve.
And by floating it onto the world's speculative markets that soon became attached to the oil, the petrodollar in 73, under Kissinger's direction, and George Shultz played a key role in that too, It became increasingly the speculative speculation determined the value of dollars and currencies and not the productive process underlying the real economy.
So with that, there was a detachment, a severing of the financial side of the economy from the physically productive side of the economy, the infrastructure, the things that the agricultural production, the things that sustain our lives that we live in that really has the value.
That was always supposed to be the thing that leads in the dance.
You know, so money and profit and investments were always supposed to be tied.
GDP was supposed to be tied to measurable growth of the real world.
And if money was growing, but your physical output was decreasing, you always had a metric to say, OK, let's correct.
We're doing something wrong.
After 71, that connection was severed completely.
And we went into a bonkers crazy, crazy land of just worshipping mathematical models that were showing us what the price commodities values would be based upon increasingly derivative, speculative outflows that had no attachment to real value.
just what people wanted to pay.
And what people want to pay, what they want, is not necessarily a sign of what has value.
People want heroin. Doesn't mean you have value with heroin.
It's negative value.
But that became the new direction, which is why now they're legalizing every single drug in Canada.
And you just see the disaster in Vancouver.
And I mean, it's not like this is solving any problems at all.
It's making more problems, but it's making people more pliable as well and more soft-minded to actually resist an oligarchy that wants to feed you soil and green.
So that's always been part of the agenda, yeah.
harrison smith
Yeah, and it really is crazy how far back this goes.
People maybe have a bias where they go, well, I just learned about this, so it may just have started.
But you really make a good case for how this, as you put it, a neo-Malthusian agenda was created as far back as the 60s.
This is chapter 33 of your book.
You say you take a deep dive into this neo-Malthusian agenda, which was revived by the same forces that murdered John F. Kennedy and which sought to replace traditional American yearning to save humanity from empires to a new ethic of saving nature, From humanity.
And if you could encapsulate the great reset in one phrase, I think that's it.
Saving in nature from us.
We are the disease. We are the cancer that must be controlled and limited and eventually depopulated and destroyed.
And it all goes back to not just the 70s, but to the long line as you lay out of think tanks and policies.
And it really does seem like Like this idea and this concept is a mold or something that occasionally you get a champion who rides up and blasts the mold back and gives us some freedom again, but the mold is still there and it creeps up and creeps up to suffocate the life that we're trying to live.
I mean, is that the image that you get when you step back and look at the wide bird's eye view?
It's this continual battle between this force of control and subjugation that's constantly in the shadows and constantly trying to grow its growth.
Is that the image that you're trying to Yeah, that's the character of the oligarchy.
matthew ehret
The oligarchical system, as a system that goes back thousands of years, it takes on that character of sort of like a...
I think it was Lyndon LaRouche I read for the first time that somebody said that, but it was a slime mold characteristic.
It doesn't have... It's kind of a life alive.
It kind of has some form of creativity, but it's a perversion of...
It's more of a reaction to the creative discoveries of human beings who think in a beautiful way and who don't accept conditions of enslavement of the mind or the body or the political structures and break free and And communicate, like we see in Plato's Allegory of the Cave, right?
Communicate to the others in the cave that there's a higher truth beyond the senses that is worth tuning your identity to.
And great works of renaissances in all cultures are the effect of that type of experience, whether St.
Augustine or Dante or Nicholas of Housa or Leibniz or Kepler, anything, or Benjamin Franklin.
Great renaissance processes that make everything better.
And the oligarchy just is reactive, always trying to co-opt, undermine, destroy the natural flow of creative evolution, and pull us back into the cave.
So, yeah, that is definitely how I see it.
It's like a parasite that moves from one host to another is another way of looking at it.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And spreading death.
I mean, if you want something that's static and doesn't change, you want something that's dead.
And that's really what they're worshipping.
Incredible stuff. Matt Arrett, the website again, risingtidefoundation.net.
