Jeremy Brown spent 20 years serving our country in special operations for
the U.S. Army, where he specialized in unconventional warfare, which is probably one of the reasons why the FBI came to his home and tried to recruit him to be a part of their January 6 false flag against peaceful American protesters.
After going public with video evidence of the FBI visit, Jeremy Brown was arrested on trumped-up charges and sentenced to seven years in federal prison.
I recently interviewed Jeremy about his new podcast, Fusion Cell.
Here are the highlights.
unidentified
Everybody knows something's going on.
There's just some of us who have a much better knowledge of what's going on than others.
But, you know, the reality is that America is an occupied country.
Our savior is not going to be somebody who's popular, who's rich, who is successful in the ways of the world right now, whether it's Elon Musk or whether it's Donald Trump.
A politician is not going to save us.
We need to start realizing that we are the answer to these problems.
In essence, America has become a nation of cowards who will only tell you what they believe if they can get three forms of verification that you agree with them.
The country that our founders established, and it certainly isn't the way they established it.
And until we start to stand up for our own beliefs and principles and not rely on these manufactured heroes, these superheroes that are given to us by the media, well then we're never going to fix the problem.
Tyranny is not coming.
It is already here.
AI is just simply another weapon in the toolbox of those who seek to control the world.
And that's all it is. I mean, the reality is that they want way fewer of us.
But they know that they like all the things that we contribute to the world, and so they have to have some type of replacement, and AI is one of those replacements.
And they've told us that this is what they want through the dystopic pre-programming of minority report and, you know, total recall.
I mean, you ask kids and they're like...
Yeah, no, I'm good with that.
If I could just be in the video game all day long with the woman in red, I'm fine with that.
And this is the problem.
This is why there's no will and no appetite for liberties.
The true threat is the institutional information dominance that has led multiple generations into believing these massive lies and Being okay with them.
This is the problem that people have been conditioned and uneducated and miseducated into not even caring.
You have confused women because there's no men.
You have confused men because they've been bashed by a society, right?
Then you have our kids being sexually abused.
I mean, it's such a mess.
For the most part, people are okay with it.
And to be honest, I think that this country might be like a drug addict.
But until you hit rock bottom, you're not going to change.
And I'm afraid that that's where we are.
It might take the spiraling into complete tyranny and totalitarianism in order for people to say, oh my gosh, we've got to do something.
We're not going to change things by voting in rigged elections, by filling in corrupt courts, and by hashtagging on censored media.
What is it gonna take to get Americans in the street?
harrison smith
All right, folks, that is, again, just an incredibly powerful report.
Jeremy Brown, it's the latest Reich report.
America needs to be recaptured under the banner of liberty.
Really, the way Jeremy Brown just lays it out there is so incredibly powerful.
So please do share that video.
Go to band.video. You can click the share link.
It gives you a disguised URL, or you can download it yourself and re-upload it.
Whatever you can do to get the information out there, you are the soldiers helping us prosecute this information war.

It's Thursday, June 22nd, year of our Lord, 2023.
And... 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 The American Journal coming to you live from the InfoWars World Headquarters here in Austin, Texas.
Thursday. We're glad to have you with us here today.
We've got a lot to talk about.
Yesterday, so towards the end of the show, the Durham questioning in Congress had begun, and so we showed you some clips from that.
Well, after the show, the questioning continued there on Capitol Hill, and it was some pretty interesting stuff.
It was some pretty illuminating stuff that we got there.
We've got lots of those videos, too many of those videos.
In fact, we'll have to go through and figure out exactly what the parts that we want to highlight are.
The whole thing is extremely interesting.
So we'll talk about that.
A whole bunch of videos to show you today.
In addition to those, other things on Capitol Hill, other just strange goings-on around the nation.
We have a guest in the third hour.
We'll be joined by Brandon Weikert, a geopolitical analyst and contributing editor to American Greatness, about his new book called Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life.
Defining issue of our time.
I'm very excited to talk about what's going on in the realm of biohacking and what we can do to stop it before it even gets started.
Once that gets started, there's no turning back.
So we'll get into all of that and more.
But let's begin today, as we do every day, with our daily dispatch.
All right, here it is, folks, your daily dispatch for Thursday, the 22nd of June, 2023.
Vladimir Putin vows to deploy the world's most powerful nuke, Satan 2, to combat duty and chilling new threat to the West.
Yes, he's vowed to deploy the hypersonic, quote, Satan-2 nuclear-capable missiles in a chilling new threat to the West.
The Russian leader said that the new generation of the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missiles, thought to be the world's most powerful, would soon be deployed for combat duty.
Now, this is different than the tactical nukes that have just been moved to Belarus.
This is a whole different level of...
Nuclear armament. In a speech to newly graduated soldiers, Putin warned, in the near future, the first launchers of the Sarmat complex with a new heavy missile will go on combat duty.
He also stressed the importance of Russia's triad of nuclear forces that could be launched from land, sea, or air.
And of course, Satan II is just the name that the West has given to this missile.
I believe Sarmat is the name that the Russians use.
In February, Putin reportedly tested his hypersonic Sarmat missile while U.S. President Joe Biden was visiting Ukraine and meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky.
So, just yet another step towards the threat of nuclear annihilation.
Really incredible, and of course, that relates to some other...
Some other news that we'll cover later in the Daily Dispatch, but next on the list, U.S. approves chicken made from cultivated cells, the nation's first lab-grown meat.
Yes, the nation's first...
Dietary abomination.
We did it. The Frankenstein chicken is now available, apparently.
For the first time, U.S. regulators on Wednesday approved the sale of chicken made from animal cells, allowing two California companies to offer lab-grown meat to nation's restaurants, tables, and eventually supermarket shelves.
The Agricultural Department gave the green light to upside foods and good meat, Firms that have been racing to be the first in the U.S. to sell meat that doesn't come from slaughtered animals, what's now being referred to as cell-cultivated or cultured meat as it emerges from the laboratory and arrives on dinner plates.
A whole lot to say about this.
We have a whole lot to say about this.
Maybe we need to get Raw Egg Nationalists on the horn, and we'll see what he's doing and see if he can join us someday next week to break this down for us.
Whole host to issues here.
You know, first of all, they have fake meat already on the shelves, Beyond Meat and these others.
They're on the shelves because nobody is taking them off the shelves.
Their entire companies have collapsed and folded because nobody wants your fake disgusting meat.
Real meat is available.
See, I would love to eat lab-grown meat if I was...
Trapped in some sort of undersea, like, science laboratory in Antarctica, and it was between that or dying.
Sure, give me the lab-grown meat at that point, but we have chickens, we have cows, we have pigs.
There is no need for lab-grown meat, and I don't know if this is a weird form of, like...
Vegetarianism, where it's like, we don't like how the chickens are being slaughtered.
So instead, we're just going to create some sort of abomination in a lab that's grown like a cancer cell, and we just don't have chickens anymore.
Just no more chickens. We're not slaughtering them, but we also just aren't raising them or feeding them or doing anything.
Instead, we're just going to create lab-formulated pseudo-meat patties and give you that instead.
Mmm, progress.
So again, we'll get into more of that a little bit later.
Just suffice it to say, now's the time to invest in cancer treatments, I guess, before that really gets going.
Meanwhile, hearkening back to our first story in the Daily Dispatch, NATO allies back fast-track membership for Ukraine.
Says cleverly.
The UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverley said that all NATO allies are backing a plan to give Ukraine a fast-track to NATO membership of the kind offered to Sweden and Finland earlier this year.
Here's the problem, though.
Here's the difference. Sweden and Finland aren't currently engaged in a massive, widespread land war, so they can join the defensive alliance.
I don't think it was necessary.
I think it represents the fulfillment of the whole reason that Russia wanted to invade Ukraine in the first place, which was that NATO was clearly doing everything it can to encroach on Russian lands and You know, move towards Russia diplomatically.
But it just literally makes no sense.
You're going to let a country that's already engaged in a massive land war into your defensive alliance?
That's just a fancy way of saying that your so-called defensive alliance is going to declare a war on Russia.
That's the only thing that's happening.
Like, it just literally makes no sense whatsoever.
You can only have a defensive alliance if the parties involved are not currently engaged in war.
Otherwise, it's just one party declaring war on another party on behalf of a third party.
So there's no such thing as fast-tracking membership to NATO for Ukraine.
What they mean is they're fast-tracking an all-out, full-scale world war against Russia.
That's what they're saying, just so we're clear.
From Postmillennial, John Durham reveals FBI kept intel on Hillary Clinton's plan to link Trump with Russia collusion in 2016 from the agents working on the case.
We showed that video yesterday.
Again, I wanted to include this in the Daily Dispatch because this is one of the things that we'll be covering today is the...
Various things that were revealed during John Durham's testimony yesterday as he was questioned by congressmen including Matt Gaetz who really held his feet to the fire and I think that's the video we'll start with in the next segment but we'll talk a little bit more about what we learned from old John Durham here in just a little bit.
Meanwhile Washington Examiner has this story.
New emails show COVID vaccine mandates were based on a lie.
Well, my God. Emails, you say.
You have emails saying this?
Well, color me convinced.
Not uncommon for politicians or bureaucrats to lie.
What seems to be unique, though, is just how common and consequential the lies during the COVID pandemic were.
On Monday, we got a bombshell.
New documents indicate the entire justification for vaccine mandates was based on a falsehood and that public health officials knew it.
Emails obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request to show that CDC Director Will Wolowinski and former NIH Director Francis Collins were aware of and discussed breakthrough cases of COVID in January 2021, right when the vaccines became widely available.
So they knew it didn't stop you from getting the virus, but they pushed it on you anyway.
unidentified
life.
harrison smith
I don't know how to tell you. There was no part of COVID that wasn't a lie.
All of it was a lie. 100% of it, every single part of it, it was all a lie.
All right, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
We'll start off with some videos from yesterday.
I got some other stuff I could get into.
We will. We'll get into it later in the show.
Bye. It's too early for unfiltered reality.
It's a little bit too early for bringing you some of the news that I have on my desk today.
We'll let everybody wake up a little bit.
Bring some of your Wake Up America coffee.
Take your brain force and your turbo force.
Get geared up and ready for the Existential horrors beyond the human kin.
For now, let's filter reality through our elected representatives, shall we?
Let's talk about what happened yesterday in Congress as they were questioning John Durham.
I might just have to play this whole video.
There are a couple really good videos with Matt Gaetz.
Matt Gaetz not so happy with old John Durham.
He really lets him have it.
I actually have a couple good ones.
Let's go to clip number 10 here.
This is Matt Gaetz going off on John Durham and his absolute failure to answer any of the real underlying questions as to the Russia gate witch hunt that Donald Trump was subjected to.
And this is infuriating, but let's watch.
We'll comment afterwards.
Here is Matt Gates yesterday.
thomas massie
Seconds to the gentlelady from Indiana.
unidentified
A quick follow-up on CHS-1 from page 243, who, according to your report, created conspiracy allegations in direct conflict with his recording and misstated significant material fact to the FBI, among other things, and you are unable to establish his intent.
Would you be able to provide to the committee a recording of your CHS-1 interview on April 6, 2021, for page 192, and any other interviews in your possession?
Yes or no? Um...
Did you refer to page 43?
I'm sorry if I can just find it on page 43.
Page 92, would you provide recording to the committee that you list?
jim jordan
Yes or no? The recording with confidential human source 1, I think, is what she's asking about.
She would like that provided.
She's asking if that could be provided to the committee, Mr.
harrison smith
Durham. This is the build-up to what Matt Gaetz talks about.
unidentified
It's a piece of evidence that belongs to the FBI. I think probably that's a better direction.
The FBI. Okay.
thomas massie
Reclaiming my time... Mr.
Durham, this seems to all have started with one person, but I don't see his name in your report.
I see it in Mueller's report 89 times.
Who did Mr.
Papadopoulos meet with that gave him this supposed Russian information?
unidentified
When Mr. Papadopoulos was interviewed by the FBI, he had identified Joseph Mifsud as a person who had provided him that information.
thomas massie
Did you interview Joseph Mifsud?
unidentified
We attempted to interview him.
We pursued every lead that we had.
We talked to a lawyer that he had in Europe, but we never were able to actually make contact with him so we could interview him.
thomas massie
Do you think he's a Western source?
Is he associated with Western intelligence?
unidentified
It's hard to say who Mr.
Mifsud is associated with.
He was tied up with Link University, Mr.
Scoti, who had involvement in the Italian government, and they were appointed.
It's hard to say who Mifsud is.
thomas massie
I'm going to yield the remainder of my time to Mr.
matt gaetz
Gates. Hard to say who Mifsud is.
He's the guy who started the whole thing.
We've known it for years.
jim jordan
Go ahead and play the video. When the special counsel's office interviewed Mifsud, did he lie to you guys too?
Can't get into that. Did you interview Mifsud?
Can't get into that. Is Mifsud Western intelligence or Russian intelligence?
Can't get into that. Well, I'm reading from your report.
Mifsud told Papadopoulos, Papadopoulos tells the diplomat, the diplomat tells the FBI, the FBI opens the investigation July 31, 2016, and here we are three years later, July of 2019, the country's been put through this, and the central figure who launches it all?
Lies to us, and you guys don't hunt him down and interview him again, and you don't charge him with a crime.
Maybe a better course of action is to figure out how the false accusation started.
Maybe it's to go back and actually figure out why Joseph Nipson was lying to the FBI. And here's the good news.
Here's the good news.
That's exactly what Bill Barr is doing.
And thank goodness for that.
That's exactly what the Attorney General and John Durham are doing.
matt gaetz
Mr. Durham, was that what you were doing?
I'm sorry, is that what? Was finding out who Mifsud was, what you were doing?
unidentified
We pursued that avenue, yes.
matt gaetz
Right, but was he...
This whole thing was an op, Mr.
Durham. This wasn't like a bumbling, fumbling FBI that couldn't get FISA straight.
They ran an op.
So who put Mifsud in play?
You don't know, do you?
unidentified
I do not know that. I can't give you the answer.
matt gaetz
For years, you had years to find out the answer to what Mr.
Jordan said was the seminal question, and you don't have it.
And it just begs the question whether or not you were really trying to find that out.
Because it's one thing to criticize the FBI for their FISA violations, to write a report.
They've been criticizing plenty of reports.
Some have referred to your work as just a repackaging and regurgitation of what the Inspector General already told us.
So if you weren't going to do, What Mr.
Jordan said you were going to do in that video and give us the basis for all of it.
What's this all been about?
unidentified
Well, I'm not exactly sure of the import of your question.
If your question is, do we try to locate and interview Mr.
Mifsud, the answer is yes.
matt gaetz
Why didn't you subpoena him to a grand jury?
I'm sorry, why not? Why didn't you send him a grand jury subpoena?
unidentified
Mr. Mifsud? You'd have to find Mr.
Mifsud before you could serve a grand jury subpoena on him.
matt gaetz
You guys were out in Italy. Was it you and Bill Barr looking for authentic pasta over there or Mifsud?
unidentified
No, we not.
We were looking for information that might help us locate MIFSA. But you know who I think could probably locate him?
matt gaetz
The features of Western intelligence and possibly our own government that put them in play.
Your report seems to be less an indictment of the FBI and more of an inoculation, lowercase i, of course.
And like many inoculations, it may have worse consequences down the road.
We'll have some time to discuss this matter further, but it's just hard to pretend as though this was a sincere effort when you don't get to the fundamental thing that started the whole deal.
unidentified
I yield back. I was away from my family for four years, essentially doing this investigation.
My view is a sincere effort.
The fact that you can't find somebody overseas...
harrison smith
I had to do it in my job.
matt infowars
Sure, they missed him very much.
thomas massie
Reclaiming my time, is he alive or dead?
harrison smith
Yeah, they don't even know whether Joseph Mizzou is alive or dead.
Yeah, he's alive. He's alive and he's foreign intelligence.
So they're covering it up, part of their...
Agreement with the Five Eyes organization.
They just couldn't find him.
They were like, ah, we looked, and actually, I'm going to play the next clip, because as Matt Gaetz says, he's like, we'll pick this up on the other side.
They do pick it up on the other side, and it gets even worse.
Like, completely inexplicable, unless the John Durham investigation was a form of cover-up, which appears to be exactly what it was.
They just couldn't find him. Just couldn't find the guy.
The guy is like, he's like the president of a university.
He's like on the chair of, like, NGOs.
And he just, they just couldn't find him.
Can't find him. They found his lawyer.
They have his cell phones, apparently, but couldn't find him.
We'll show you that clip on the other side.
So, you know, Matt Gaetz, we have a bunch of videos of a bunch of people questioning, but Matt Gaetz really lays it out.
So I'm going to show you another big clip of Matt Gaetz when he really lays out the whole timeline, the whole problem with Durham's report.
And really, he, Matt Gaetz, accuses Durham of making a cover-up for the FBI. We'll be right back.
Welcome back ladies and gentlemen.
I guess you could say there's a lot of issues that define our times right now.
A lot of them laid out on my death.
The Ukraine war, the looming specter of nuclear combat with Russia for no discernible reason.
The transgender issue as half of the country seems to be utterly untethered to reality and in some sort of bizarre inverted dream world that they are attempting to oppose on everybody else.
The Unnaturalness of the world as we move forward with the lab-grown meat and DNA manipulation of human beings.
I mean, there's a lot of major issues that go into this ultimate conflict between humanity and the anti-human globalist scumbags that are attempting to destroy everything.
But I think in terms of American politics, what we're covering here is the defining issue.
It is The conflict that will determine whether or not we remain a republic or democracy of any sort or whether we just go into a full-fledged deep state tyranny,
despotic form of government where people running our country have no need, no obligation to respond to the will of the people whatsoever and rather just We're good to go.
Now, he completely failed in that regard.
And Matt Gaetz does a fantastic job of holding his feet to the fire.
The video that we just saw is really prelude to this next part where Matt Gaetz breaks it all down.
So I'm just going to play the full thing here because he goes, I mean, he runs the gamut.
We'll talk about it on the other side.
But this five-minute, six-minute segment should be aired on every platform continuously until the message gets through to the American people and they understand just how thoroughly corrupt our deep state government is.
So we go now back to this questioning of John Durham.
This time Matt Gaetz has the floor and he's got the receipts and the documents showing that Durham flagrantly disregarded his obligation and what he was tasked to do.
So here's Matt Gaetz really laying into John Durham and proving that the entire investigation turned out to be nothing more than an elaborate cover-up for the crimes that the FBI perpetrated over the last seven years.
Let's watch.
matt gaetz
Yeah, I agree with Mr. Big.
Biggs. You've given us testimony today that you're disappointed that the FBI didn't cooperate more, right?
That was your testimony. I've said that.
Yeah, so we're disappointed too, but the difference is when regular folks do things that are wrong and unlawful, there's typically greater effort to try to get those people before a grand jury to utilize criminal process where appropriate, not for other purposes.
And it's just like, oh, well, Bill Priestep, the guy who might have set this whole op in motion, he just didn't want to talk to you about certain things, and you were real accommodating to that.
And then Mifsud, The person who juices Papadopoulos to create this predicate that you find improper.
Did you ever know who his lawyer was, Mifsud's lawyer?
unidentified
I talked to his lawyer in Europe.
matt gaetz
You could find the guy's lawyer, but you couldn't find him?
unidentified
We contacted somebody that we knew had represented him in part of the effort to try to locate him.
matt gaetz
And you got the lawyer. And then now you're sitting here in front of the judiciary saying you could find the guy's lawyer, but you couldn't effectuate the service of a subpoena because you couldn't find him?
unidentified
First of all, as you may or may not know, we wouldn't have the authority to serve a subpoena overseas.
The lawyer didn't know where Mifsud was.
He was in communication with him, but he claimed not to know where he was.
And we were trying to arrange an opportunity to talk to Mifsud.
matt gaetz
Did you take possession of two BlackBerry phones from Mifsud?
unidentified
There were phones that were provided to us by the guy.
matt gaetz
Do you see how silly this looks?
You found the lawyer, you found the phones, but the actual dude who got ordered by Western intelligence to go start this thing you couldn't find?
It's kind of laughable.
It seems like more than disappointment.
It seems like you weren't really trying to expose the true core of the corruption.
That you were trying to go at it another way.
unidentified
As we said in the report and as I said in my opening remarks, we pursued the facts as best we could.
matt gaetz
How about this fact, Mr.
Durham? The entire Mueller team does a hard reset on their Apple phone in synchronization to wipe away evidence.
Did you investigate that?
unidentified
I've read that. Why did you investigate it?
matt gaetz
Who gave the order on the Mueller team to wipe the phones?
unidentified
Yeah, that was not something that we were asked to look at.
matt gaetz
That's not true, Mr.
Durham. That is not true, because I'm holding the document that authorizes your activity, and it specifically says the investigation of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
Mr. Chairman, I seek unanimous consent to enter into the record the order that says that you're supposed to investigate these things.
Whether it's the Mueller team, Mifsud, how about Azra Turk?
What's Azra Turk's real name?
unidentified
Do you know that? I'm not going to be disclosing the names of FBI personnel that are otherwise unavailable.
matt gaetz
So the FBI sent somebody to go honeypot George Papadopoulos.
Who gave the order to do that?
unidentified
I think that's beyond the scope of what's in the report.
matt gaetz
It's literally the scope of what your charging order is.
Who put it in motion?
We get, after it was put in motion, the FBI did a bunch of wrong and corrupt things.
Totally understand. We're trying to deal with that.
But when you are part of the cover-up, Mr.
unidentified
Durham, then it makes our job harder.
Yeah, well, if that's your thought, I mean, there's no way of dissuading you from that.
I can tell you that it's offensive and that the people who worked on this investigation have spent their lives trying to protect people in this country and pursue within the law what it is that we are authorized to do.
matt gaetz
You tried two cases, lost both of them, and then the one plea, guilty plea you got, Kleinsmith?
Kleinsmith is back to practicing law in Washington, D.C. today.
unidentified
Yeah. That's beyond my control.
matt gaetz
Right, but the fact that you allowed that plea to occur, right, and then the punishment was insufficient, the fact that you didn't charge Andrew McCabe, you didn't convict the lying Democrats or the lying Russians, you didn't investigate Mifsud or the Mueller probe, even though, as we sit here today in black letter, that was your charge.
Have you ever heard of the Washington Generals?
unidentified
The Washington Generals?
matt gaetz
Yes. Yeah, and they're the team that basically gets paid to show up and lose, right?
unidentified
Well, you know, I'm sure that the players who exert blood, sweat, and tears don't view it that way, but you might.
matt gaetz
I think they do. I think they do, because the job of the Washington generals is to show up every night and to play the Harlem Globetrotters.
And their job is to lose.
unidentified
I'm sorry, I was thinking of a different thing.
matt gaetz
Yeah, so their job is to lose.
And I'm kind of wondering, and it just seems so facially obvious, that it's not what's in your report that's telling.
It's the omission. It's the lack of work you did.
And for the people like the chairman who put trust in you, I think you let them down.
I think you let the country down.
And you are one of the barriers to the true accountability that we need.
unidentified
Do I get to respond to that or comment on that?
Yeah. Well, I don't know if you've ever investigated a crime.
I don't know that you have.
matt gaetz
You didn't investigate these, Mr.
unidentified
Durham. How about Andy McCabe?
matt gaetz
Did you charge him? Did you investigate him?
jim jordan
Gentlemen, time has expired.
The witness can respond, and then we'll move on to our last...
unidentified
I don't know, sir, whether or not you've ever had occasion to try to investigate crimes under the rules and regulations.
And not under the Constitution that we're bound by.
We can gather evidence in particularly lawful ways.
Can't charge people because we might think something, we can charge people.
matt gaetz
It's not just that you didn't charge, you didn't investigate. You didn't investigate the Mueller team wiping their phones, and you won't tell us who gave the orders because you're protecting those people.
jim jordan
Gentleman's time has expired.
The gentlelady from Wyoming.
harrison smith
Yeah, absolutely. Incredibly powerful stuff from Matt Gaetz.
And he's exactly right. And it's truly amazing.
I don't think that's in the scope.
He's like, it says it right here.
Here's the charging order.
Here's the whole document that put your purpose into motion.
It's explicitly laid out that this is what you were supposed to do.
And I just didn't do it.
And this is the way bureaucracies always work.
When the rules and laws and stipulations conform to what they want to do, then they're rock solid and they're sacred and they have to be followed.
But when you, hey, if you want to spy on a presidential campaign, if you want to, you know, cheat a little bit, then those rules and laws, they're a little bit lax.
They're not as thorough as they seem to be otherwise.
You can pick and choose and then fall back on that defense.
unidentified
All right, folks, welcome back.
harrison smith
This is the American Journal.
Very, very frustrating watching the Republicans, everything that they're supposed to do, trusting the system, having the patience and Confidence in things like the Inspector General, special prosecutors.
You know what? We'll just...
We know there's a couple bad apples in the bunch, but we trust the system and the establishment overall.
We just do things the right way.
The good people at the FBI, the good people in the deep state, they'll be there to set things right because they don't want all this to...
Reflect poorly on them.
It's enough of that.
No, that's enough of that.
We can stop having faith in this system now.
I don't know how many times we have to be proven right about this.
This is not something that started in 2016.
Not something that started with George Papadopoulos or Joseph Mifsud or Hillary Clinton, the Steele dossier.
It's a continuation of a cancerous rot in the FBI, in the DHS, the NSA, and the CIA. That may have finally gotten so bad that it was impossible to ignore at that point.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that remembers having arguments back with my family in like 2014, 2012.
Trying to explain the FBI is corrupt.
It is absolutely corrupt.
Especially when I have a family that works with FBI agents.
They're like, but they're good guys.
Aren't these guys great? Aren't these guys nice?
unidentified
Like, I guess. Like, I guess.
harrison smith
Fine, but like, who cares?
Yeah, the guy working at the fast food restaurant cashier might be a nice person.
Doesn't mean the food isn't poison to you, right?
Yeah. The FBI has been corrupt for a very long time.
The CIA has been corrupt for its entire existence.
The fact that we've made it this long is frankly astonishing.
But this should really be the last gasp of hope that Republicans have in these systems.
If you can't recognize that, I don't know what to tell you.
When they... When the rules and regulations and laws that they're supposed to follow fit with what they want to do anyway, then they treat them as sacred.
If those things are limiting them from what they want to do, then they just find ways around them.
I've said it before. Most FBI agents are lawyers.
Think of the FBI as recruiting from a college football team or, you know, the Like in Men in Black or something, it's like the best of the best from each branch of the government is brought in for a special test.
No, it's lawyers. It's special prosecutors.
That's the bulk of FBI employees.
It means they're extremely sophisticated at skirting that line between legal and illegal for having a degree of separation or two Between them and their orders and when the orders are actually carried out.
And they have little ways of doing this.
And you can see during the Durham testimony, every time he gets caught out on one of these, every time that his failure to fulfill the foundational obligation of the directive that ordered him to start this investigation...
He reverts back to, well, I sacrificed four years of my life for this.
Now, did you? Did you?
He wants us to think that for four years he was like...
Like freaking Columbo or something, just like in a trench coat, just traveling from place to place, questioning things, kicking down doors, pouring through files.
His family like, please come home, John.
He's like, I can't. America needs me.
It's just like, okay, you did your job for four years.
Yeah, you clocked in and clocked out just like everybody else for four years.
Oh, and you also got a couple...
Gratis trips to Italy on the books while you're there.
This wasn't hard for you.
This wasn't difficult. This wasn't a big sacrifice.
This was an elaborate charade you were carrying out.
And that's obvious at this point.
But he always reverts back to that.
And he reverts back to it with the other people too.
Claiming that because you've uncovered a lie or a...
Short fall somewhere in their investigative process.
Somehow you're not allowed to ask that question because these people are patriots.
People have put so much on the line to get to the bottom of this.
And it's like, okay, if that's true, then maybe you should have actually gotten to the bottom of it.
I mean, if I'm going to sacrifice four years of my life for something, I'm not going to do it half-assed like you did, apparently.
I'm going to sacrifice four years of my life to get to the bottom of what happened with Crossfire Hurricane.
I'm going to go ahead and try to talk to the main people involved.
And if they don't want to talk to me, I'm going to use whatever powers that I have to compel them to talk to me.
That's not what happened. Not even in the slightest.
It's like, well, we looked for George Misford.
We looked for him. Joseph, whatever his name is.
Well, he got away. Darn it, he's gone.
We did try, though.
I definitely had my eyes open, for sure.
I didn't see him, though.
So, I guess we'll just drop it.
Now, there are also some interesting phrases that both sides of that conversation used, such as the phrase, Western intelligence.
What does that mean? There's no such thing as Western intelligence.
Is he talking about the 5i countries?
And what does that mean, Western intelligence?
Well, what that means is that Joseph Misford is an intelligence agent for a Western country.
What does Western country even mean?
It's one of the things that they just...
They just sort of drop. Oh, because he was an agent for Western Intelligence.
There's no such thing as an international intelligence bureau or agency.
Unless it's something like Interpol.
Unless it is actually an international police force.
But that's not what they're saying when they say Western Intelligence.
Just one of those things that they say that you're like...
Which country? Which country is he an intelligence agent for?
And why are you not saying that country?
Why are you putting it vaguely as if there's some sort of international intelligence community?
Which, I mean, again, you know, people who watch this, they know when you talk about intelligence community, you are talking about an international group.
Ironically, it actually is an accurate phrase to say Western intelligence because the intelligence agencies are not loyal to the countries that they're supposed to serve.
They're loyal to the globalist faction of the West.
So it is actually accurate in a way that they don't intend, but it's a purposefully obscure way of talking about this.
In order to disguise or hide who Mifsud was working for because when you understand that he was working for a country that's not America, you understand that this was a, in the most ironic way possible, this investigation into Trump for working for a foreign power was all created, fabricated, and powered by foreign intelligence agencies.
You've got foreign nations using their intelligence agencies in cooperation with the FBI and the CIA here in this country and of course the media and everything else they control to create a false accusation about Donald Trump working for a foreign intelligence service.
Couldn't be more inverted.
All of this is inversion at the highest level.
There's actually more about the FBI that we can get into later today.
We're going to move on a little bit to some of the more wide-ranging topics, such as lab-grown meat, California's high-speed rail.
They've just come out with a new guesstimate as to how much it'll cost.
Absolutely depressing. And we'll get into some of the Really disturbing stories about what's going on here in America, apparently with full cooperation and even funding of the American government.
We'll get into all that and more and open up the phone lines in the second hour.
Stay tuned for that.
I want to take your input on all of this.

All right, folks, welcome back.
harrison smith
The second hour has begun here on American Journal.
We'll go quickly to this video because we're not going to be able to play the whole thing, but frankly, I don't have the Constitution to get through more than a few minutes of it.
Lots of stuff going on on Capitol Hill these days.
Questioning of John Durham, of course.
The censoring of Adam Schiff.
But he also had this weird exchange between Senator John Kennedy and a human rights campaign chief about gender.
Again, the whole thing's like eight minutes long.
I could hardly get through like two minutes of it.
Probably just had to shut the video.
So we'll try to get through it here.
Maybe we'll comment on it.
I think this really illustrates...
It's impossible to have conversations when half of the side is utterly divorced from reality and uninterested in conforming their beliefs to biological, chemical, and physical existence.
So let's go now to clip number one.
Here's Senator John Kennedy questioning one of the weirdest looking women I've ever seen.
Let's go ahead and watch this now.
john kennedy
I'm trying to understand your answer to one of Senator Cruz's questions, and this is really a question, not a suggestion.
Do I understand your position to be that there are two sexes, but there can be more than two genders?
unidentified
I wouldn't even say, too, and we've got Dr.
Lopez here as well, but there's also the definition of intersex.
I think that often in these conversations, we're conflating sex and gender, and I do want to affirm here that trans women are women.
That is their gender. Okay.
john kennedy
But I'm trying to understand...
Do you make a distinction between sex and gender?
unidentified
Yes, sir. Okay.
john kennedy
Explain that just...
Do you think there are more than two sexes?
unidentified
I believe that there's a definition for intersex as well that I want to acknowledge.
But sex is a sign of birth.
john kennedy
I'm just trying to understand.
I'm thoroughly confused.
So you're born...
I'm talking about biology.
Male, female, and what else?
unidentified
I believe that intersex is also acknowledged, but again, I'm not a doctor here.
harrison smith
Which isn't a distinct one, right?
It's the combination of both male and female.
So it's not really a third distinct gender, just so we're clear.
unidentified
...conversations, we're conflating the two.
john kennedy
Well, but I want to start with sex, okay?
There's male... There's female.
When a baby's born, before the baby has had time to even have a sense of self, there's male, female, and intersex?
unidentified
There's a third sex? I believe that is true, but I would defer to Dr.
Lopez as I'm not a physician.
john kennedy
Okay. And how many genders are there?
unidentified
I think the gender is expansive and the definitions are always growing.
You know, today I can tell you I talk to young people that talk about non-binary as...
More than five? I think the gender is not a binary is what I'm trying to say.
john kennedy
But are there more than five genders?
I'm just trying to understand.
Are there more than five genders?
unidentified
Well, I mean, I think that there was a time where women wearing pants didn't feel like it was appropriate for their gender, and yet I'm wearing pants today.
I think that there are ways that we express our gender that are expansive.
Are there more than five? I wouldn't subject myself to naming how many genders there are, but what I can say is that gender is a reflection.
john kennedy
Excuse me? There's an infinite number of genders?
unidentified
I think depending on your culture, there are a lot of different genders that exist.
And I can also say that it's a term that's evolving.
If you look at young people today, they really don't lean into the binary of only woman and man.
So I think that it's incumbent upon us not to legislate on this, but create space for them to explore what their identities are, what their gender identities are.
john kennedy
Let's get back to athletics.
I think I understand what you're saying.
There are three sexes.
harrison smith
That's a poor guy. Male, female.
So I don't know if Kennedy is doing kind of like a bumpkin act.
Right? Where he's kind of pretending to not get it.
matt infowars
Can I clear things up for you?
Yeah. You know, a lot of this, and I kind of noticed this years ago, that people were conflating gender with gender norms and gender stereotypes.
And that's exactly what she alluded to with her talking about the pants.
harrison smith
With her pants, yeah. It's like, there are two sexes, male and female.
And it's like, and this is all about, you know, sports and whether people should be allowed to play against different genders or sexes in sports.
It's like you wearing pants has nothing to do with it.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome back.
We just showed just one of the most baffling conversations that we sort of see repeated over and over again.
Again, I don't know if Senator Kennedy is sort of playing the bumpkin role.
It's actually a valuable part of our republic, right?
I tell the story a lot.
I remember sort of realizing this when...
Because it's not just about gender that you've got these so-called experts that can come up and just run rhetorical circles around anybody who's trying to actually get the truth out of them.
This tends to happen with everything, whether it's COVID and COVID-19 when you're just like...
Did this work or not?
And they're just like, at the time, we believed all of the authoritative sources said that the peer-reviewed...
unidentified
And it's just like, stop, stop, just shut up.
harrison smith
What are you talking about? Just answer the question.
Same thing with gender, same thing with sex, and same thing with military activity as well.
Because I remember it was Rand Paul, I think it was Rand Paul, questioning during the filibuster about He was just asking a simple question like, is it okay, is it right for the American government to assassinate an American citizen who's underage with a drone?
Is that right or wrong?
And Guy answering is like, well, the threat matrices that we rely on, the intelligence that we rely on, is strictly guided by a number of da-da-da-da-da-da, and it's just, and I apologize to keep asking, okay, thank you for all that gobbledygook, gibberish nonsense.
Is it right or is it wrong?
Go. Well, all of the actions that are taken are guided by a very sufficient guidework, framework of, of course, guided by, and it's just like, this happens across the board, right?
And to me, this is one of the things that's like, oh, right, this is why we don't have a government of so-called experts, because experts can justify anything.
People with the, again, rhetorical or, you know, academic...
Capabilities can justify anything and can weave very convincing lies about just about anything.
And sometimes what you need to combat that is not another, you know, academic who can philosophize about this, but just like a regular dude being like, okay, but you didn't answer the question.
Answer the question now. You know, just like, okay, great.
So is it right or wrong? Okay, so how many genders are there?
So, you know, there's definitely like a value, and that's the whole reason why we have a republic is because you don't want people whose entire jobs and careers and lifestyles and thought processes guided by the experts who can use their knowledge properly.
To weave whatever reality they want.
You want regular people that actually have jobs and have to do things out in the world and have to contend with reality and either make products people want to buy or provide services that people want to use.
And you get those regular people to confront the experts and go, it doesn't pass the smell test, so...
We're not going to allow this.
So you can explain it in a way that doesn't require invented vocabulary that didn't exist five years ago.
The answer is going to be no from us.
Like, those are the people you want in charge.
Normal, common-sense Americans who can slice through all of this rhetorical fog.
And so maybe that's what Kennedy's doing.
He's kind of illustrating that, like, any normal person...
Who grew up for their entire lives in reality.
How incompatible that is with the new fabricated reality that's being imposed upon them.
Maybe that was his strategy.
Or maybe he really doesn't understand.
And if that's the case, that's a big issue.
Because these people, like that beady-eyed woman we just saw.
Like their entire purpose is to operate in an ever-evolving world.
Series of fantasies.
If you can't keep up with that, and if you're baffled by the whole foundation of what they're saying, then they're just going to be able to say nonsense and then like smile condescendingly as if they just prove something when in reality, they look like that.
They look like that.
So I don't know if that's what he was doing, sort of doing this pretend thing, just to illustrate how ridiculous she is.
But in reality, you need to fully understand it so you can combat it.
And so, like, if you're talking about people participating in sports and they're talking about gender expression and she's like, well, you know, women used to not wear pants, but I'm wearing pants.
Like, what the hell are you talking about, lady?
Honestly, what are you saying?
You need to just be able to go, okay, so gender expression is about the pants that you wear and the way you style your hair.
So that has nothing to do with playing sports and being competitive in the biological reality.
So when you talk about gender, you're talking about something that is...
Utterly different than what we're talking about.
You're bringing up stuff that has nothing to do with what we're talking about, which is biological reality and sports and physical differences between male and female.
When you talk about gender, apparently what you're talking about is something infinite and unbounded by physical reality.
You're just talking about a series of fantasies that you have that have no bearing on sports or...
Anything of the sort.
We can ignore that.
You can just ignore that. When you say there's infinite genders, or more than five genders, or there's one gender, the human gender, whatever you say doesn't matter because we're not talking about gender, we're talking about sex.
If that's what we're laying down by asking her the difference between sex and gender, when she says, well, gender is an expression and it's a social construct, you can go, okay, so we can ignore everything you say about gender because it doesn't matter with what we're talking about.
But then there's another issue in that we covered a story a few days ago where a college student was given a zero on a paper because she used the phrase biologically female.
She said biological woman and got a zero on that.
So these people don't believe in sex either.
Like right now, they define a difference between sex and gender so they can pontificate as if they are enlightened in some way where it's like, you are bounded by sex because you are still in that realm of the physical.
We are beyond that in the spiritual realm where sex does not determine your gender.
And it's just like, okay, you're talking about a weird...
Progressive fantasy that doesn't matter or exist so we can ignore what you're saying.
But that's just to cover because in reality, they also don't believe in differences between biological sex.
They say men can have babies and that there's no difference between men and women in sports.
And they also do this thing where they're like, well, I'm not a physician.
I'm not an expert in this.
And that's her answer when he asks, do men have an advantage when it comes to sports?
It's actually in that clip where the woman is like saying it's ridiculous to say that Serena and Venus Williams are at some sort of competitive disadvantage because they're female.
And then Riley Gaines, the swimmer who is actually standing up against this transgender nonsense, goes, yeah, Venus and Serena were both defeated by the 203 ranked male tennis players.
They're the number one females.
They were defeated by the number 203 males.
There is an obvious difference in gender and physical capability.
matt infowars
Can I jump in one more time with this?
So we last segment talked about gender versus gender norms.
If you were to type in gender to Google right now and look for the definition, right, it says the male sex or the female sex, especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones or one of a range of other identities especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones or one of a range of other So now we have kind of an idea of where they're operating.
unidentified
But if you go down, just...
matt infowars
Just two links down the page.
Whenever you type something into Google and it's not a URL, you usually get a recommended people also ask section.
And the number one thing on my browser, when I type in gender into a Google account that isn't linked, says...
That there is an old definition of gender that goes back to 1882, defined as kind, breed, or sex.
And this is the important crux of the thing, is that it's derived from Latin, or genus.
harrison smith
So, this is the etymology of the word.
Language, gendered language was always a thing.
Alright, welcome back.
Boys and girls.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
And whatever else there is, I guess.
Hey, I want to be inclusive here.
Ladies and gentlemen, the in-betweens.
john kennedy
That's just...
harrison smith
Something else, isn't there?
I mean...
unidentified
There's a...
harrison smith
Alright, we're going to move on.
We're going to move on from this.
But, but I will say, there's a sacred balance in duality, right?
There's the sun and the moon.
There's day and night. There's men and women.
Like, this is a necessary, if almost impossible to understand, Aspect of life as we know it, not just human life, but existence itself.
Plants are male and female.
It's like, so what this is about is about the breaking of, the shattering of, the dislocating of physical reality, as in just what is, temporal existence from...
What goes on in the minds of these people?
It's setting up for transhumanism.
If you can reject, they can make you reject the basis of reality, then they can make you think and believe and do anything.
And as I pointed out in the last segment, it's not just gender where this type of academic expert language is used to obfuscate and disguise the truth.
And give rhetorical justification for a lie.
Three to infinity beyond two genders.
Okay. It just makes no sense at all.
Now, there's a...
unidentified
There's a...
harrison smith
I don't know if you want to say...
Sacredness, like it's almost beyond that.
It's just like a fundamental reality of duality.
That all of life and even it seems, you know, I don't know, is the sun alive?
Is the moon alive? I don't know.
But they're both necessary for life on the earth to exist.
So, you know, it's beyond even life.
unidentified
It's just like, I don't, you know.
harrison smith
They want to separate you completely from just the basic fundamental reality of existence.
And that's what it's all about and a lot of people are falling for it.
They think it's somehow backwards, somehow regressive to believe in nature and think that the way things are are there for a reason and it's necessary.
You know, this kind of reminds me, you know what we'll do?
We're going to open up the phone lines right now, the number to dial if you want to talk about this or any other story that we've covered today or are going to cover today, including the California high-speed rail.
We're going to talk about the vaccine mandate and lab-grown chicken.
And we're going to talk about the most disturbing story I've seen in a very long time out of Boston about four kids found at a transgender party.
I don't even, I don't want to get into it.
But we will. We will get into it soon.
So give us a call about any and all of these things.
1-877-789-2539.
1-877-789-2539.
matt infowars
I just want to wrap up that gender thing.
I just came up with the ultimate way to get out of that conversation.
harrison smith
Okay. Just right now.
matt infowars
Next time someone says there's more than two genders, you ask them, you say, what do you call someone with a dick growing out of their head?
unidentified
Okay. I don't get it.
What do you call him, a dickhead? Yeah.
harrison smith
I think you just, I mean, I would have liked to see John Kennedy when she's like, women used to not wear pants, and I'm wearing pants.
If he was like, so you're a man now?
You're telling me you're a, so what gender are you?
A woman wearing, is that a particular gender?
I want to be a senator.
I want to be an old senator.
That's what I want to be, an old jowly senator who gets to just question progressive idiots.
Johnny Kennedy's pretty good, but I think he could be better.
I think he could be better. That's all absurdity, right?
Like, well, gender is just your social expression.
So that means wearing pants makes you a man.
No, women can wear pants.
So it's outside.
So it's gender norms versus...
It's all so stupid.
It's all so utterly stupid.
We could talk more about it.
I got a little stack here.
Talking about transgenderism.
Gender dysphoria.
It seems to be just a massive issue.
Completely fabricated.
It just makes no sense at all.
Makes no sense whatsoever.
And yet, it is becoming the basis for medical intervention that is sterilizing children across the country and across the world.
Completely insane.
Washington students marched to principal's office and lectured for wearing their only two genders shirt.
Remember, they want to be inclusive and understanding, but not if you oppose them.
Yet another video has gone viral of students this time in Washington being disciplined by a teacher for expressing their opinion that there are only two genders.
The students based at Klahowa Secondary School in Silverdale were marched to the office by a teacher who lectured them that they were spreading hate speech and promoting exclusion for wearing shirts emblazoned with the phrase, there are only two genders.
That's the way that's going.
Transgender ideology and the corruption of medicine.
This is the latest from Christopher Ruffo.
I've been engaged in an ongoing dialogue with a physician who works in a major children's hospital in a blue city.
This physician has witnessed firsthand how transgender ideology has captured the medical profession and jeopardized the first commanding of healing sciences that is do no harm.
He's chosen to speak out on condition of anonymity because he's alarmed by the sudden corruption of the medical community.
His colleagues, many of whom oppose transgender interventions, have so far chosen to stay silent.
This interview has been edited for length and And clarity.
And there's some very interesting tidbits in this.
Again, you can see how this corresponds to everything else, right?
What's that phrase?
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities, something like that.
I mean, the transgender gender-affirming care medical interventions are a tragedy.
They are a crime against humanity that's Completely inexplicable how this is allowed to go on.
We can see the similarities between that and COVID. Where likewise, you had doctors who knew that what was going on was wrong, but wouldn't speak up because they were threatened by their hospitals.
They're threatened to have their livelihood and the fruits of their lifetime of work ripped away from them.
I've said it before, courage is literally all we need.
Courage is the one panacea that solves all of this.
Because if doctors just had courage, if you just understood that by allowing this to go on, not speaking up, valuing, you know, your position at this hospital over the fate of humanity, then you're contributing to this spiritual decay, this total death that they're trying to inflict on us.
You've got to value truth and righteousness over your job, your position.
You've just got to stand up and go, yeah, this is wrong.
I don't care if you're firing me.
All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the show.
We're taking your calls now.
The number to dial 1-877-789-2539.
1-877-789-2539.
I thought we were going to move on from the transgender issue, but this article from Christopher Rufo at city-journal.org called Transgender Ideology and the Corruption of Medicine is really next-level stuff.
And this doctor that he's talking to, who only spoke to him under condition of anonymity, really understands the full weight and import of what's going on here right now.
So Christopher Ruffo asked him just to set the scene and say, what's it like?
He asked, what's it like for a major children's hospital in the United States regarding transgender interventions for children?
The physician, just like I did, relates this back to COVID-19.
He says, I think the best way to answer that question is to talk about the cultural shift that happened in 2020 because transgender ideology and COVID are inextricably linked.
And he basically talks about how in COVID, we started getting these medical decrees without peer review or evidence.
You saw this with masks.
He says social distancing and emergency use authorizations.
These decrees were expressed as something that everyone had to do without justification based on sound science.
The other thing he says was censorship.
If you were to ask questions or express doubt about these medical decrees, you would be ostracized within your department and you stood a good chance of being publicly humiliated, severely reprimanded, or fired.
And that is when transgender ideology really took off.
These academic institutions, so-called experts in the field of transgender medicine, would simply declare that puberty blockers and other interventions were the gold standard of care.
The evidence to support this is completely fraudulent, but no dissent was permitted.
They basically understood, as the precedent had been set with COVID, you are not even allowed to ask for proof or justification for this.
It is simply a top-down dictum that you are to follow without question.
And he explains how wrong this is, saying that you have these children going through confusing times, difficult times.
When you affirm this belief system, this false ideology, what you're really doing is telling them, quote, you hate yourself at this moment, and I will affirm that.
We have to ask ourselves, why do these people have such high rates of suicide?
Because we're affirming that they should hate themselves and that they should try to destroy themselves.
Absolutely true. Then he goes even further.
He talks about how this is a false ideology and it has all of the weight of religious indoctrination.
He says, I believe there's a way they've bought into this false ideology of transgenderism, and when people have a false ideology, they need a way to separate themselves from non-believers and to express their faith to other believers.
And if these rituals are not derived from a cultural heritage with a moral tradition, they become susceptible to unbound human depravity.
I think that's put really well.
If these rituals are not derived from a cultural heritage with a moral tradition, they become susceptible to unbound human depravity.
I think not only are these ideologies come from something without moral, they come from something that is anti-moral.
Not just amoral without morals, but actually the reason that they're put into place is to be contrary to a moral system.
I think he's exactly right. I think he puts that really well.
He talks about how when you look at the Judeo-Christian tradition, you have the outlying of child sacrifice and other ways that standards were codified.
But in the transgender ideology, none of these guardrails exist.
So what becomes the greatest expression of faith to other believers?
To sacrifice the most pure and innocent.
Once they do that, they become heroes.
They become martyrs. They have their flag hung up at the White House.
And there's no going back, because if they were to demonstrate any degree of humility, they would have to come to terms with the fact that they advocated for and participated in a practice that destroyed the lives of innocent children.
What a pernicious, pernicious ideology.
That's making its way into our medical institution.
So he talks about the way that this all started with COVID, how it has to do with authoritarianism and censorship and self-censorship.
He talks about how it has all of the weight of religion, but without the guardrails of a moral framework that actually keeps things bound within reason.
But he goes even farther than that.
He talks about the metaphysical reality of transgenderism and how it actually changes your brain chemistry to make you something, I would say, less than human.
I'll explain what I mean by that by reading this Absolutely jaw-dropping paragraph he lays down.
So Rufio asks, what do you predict for the future of transgender medicine?
The physician says, I don't know.
I pray there's a change. He says, one of the things I've been thinking about is puberty blockers do to children, what they do to children.
This medicine is called gonadotropin.
Releasing hormones agonist, and it comes in the form of monthly injections or an implant.
And because it stimulates the activity of this hormone, it shuts down the activity of the hypothalamus.
The hypothalamus is an almond-sized structure in your brain.
It's one of the most vestigial structures we have, and it controls all the other hormonal structures in your body.
Your sexual development, your emotions, your fight or flight response, everything.
But it shouldn't be described in such a cold physiological terms because your hypothalamus is not just a hormone factory.
It's this system that allows you to stand in awe of the beauty of a sunset or to hear the sounds of orchestral music and stop whatever you're doing to want to listen.
And I always think that if someone were to ask me, where is...
Where is it you would look for the defined spark in each individual?
I would say that it's somewhere beneath the inner chamber, which is the Greek derivation of the term hypothalamus.
To shut down that system is to shut down what makes us human.
I mean, that's the purpose.
And That's been a focus here at Infowars for a long time.
When you talk about the Infowar, you're talking about a chemical war as well.
And the literal, physical, chemical manipulation of our bodies.
It's changing the way that we are able to even perceive the world.
If you can alter someone's chemical balance, chemicals and the hormones are the reason why...
Maybe at one point you're feeling good and everything's going fine and a car drives by and splashes you.
You might go, well, it's kind of hot anyway.
At least I'm not as hot now.
It doesn't really bother you. You don't really care.
But if your hormones are in a different state of balance, you have different parts of your brain firing and parts of the hypothalamus activating at different times, that can send you into a murderous rage, right?
Same event. Same person being affected by this event but the state of your mind changes whether you freak out and rage about it or whether you laugh it off and think it's funny or whether you see a sunset and go just roll your eyes go yeah who cares it's red I've seen red skies before no big deal or whether you start weeping in awe of the beauty of God's creation like this is the hormonal balance and they control these things in numerous different ways one of the primary ones that isn't thought of In the appropriately medical way that it should be is dopamine and serotonin and these things that are activated by participation with social media.
When they talk about, you know, we designed it to give you a little dopamine kick every time you get a like.
They did that on purpose.
That also is hijacking and hacking your brain and hacking your chemical production in your brain to manipulate how you see and view the world, what...
You think brings you happiness.
Of course, now they're going to start implanting things in people's brains that are going to be able to activate these hormones artificially by the press of a button.
So this is a hormone war that we're waging.
And this guy points out that through this puberty blocker activity, they are cutting off and hijacking production of the very hormones that make us human, that make us who we are.
After all, I'm sure you've seen videos where it's like a monkey will play a matching game and he's like so much better than a human.
Like, it's not necessarily human intelligence, so-called, that makes us human.
It's the human connections.
It's the love of beauty.
It's art. It's storytelling.
Like, these are the things that make us human.
These are the things that are beautiful and worth fighting for.
These people, these medical tyrants, want to strip that away And have us become less than human.
They talk about progress, but they're regressing, not just to 2012, not just to 1775.
They're regressing us back to monkey form.
We can't even conceive of beauty in God.

All right, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
harrison smith
Still so much to talk about. We go out to your calls now.
Let's go to Tim in Ohio first.
We go to line 8. Tim in Ohio wants to talk about the Kennedy clip about the two sexes.
What was your take on that, Tim?
Thanks for calling in. You're on the air. Well, I just wanted to make a comment.
unidentified
I think that if I were Senator Kennedy, I would have asked her, of all the millions of birth certificates produced in the United States, show me one that says something other than male or female.
harrison smith
Well, there's intersex.
Don't you know that 0.01% of births have qualities of both male and female?
Therefore, you know, men should be allowed in women's locker rooms.
I mean, don't you get that?
unidentified
I hear the rhetoric, but like I said, produce me a birth certificate that says that, because I don't believe there are any.
harrison smith
Yeah, no, it's utter nonsense.
But I mean, that's why they've created this idea of gender, which previously only applied to language, right?
A gendered language.
Like a chair is female in Spanish or whatever.
They took that and superimposed that onto sex and said it's actually something totally different.
No, I... I mean, it's absurd, right?
It's utter absurdity.
There's nothing that they can say other than give you the rhetorical runaround because they have nothing because it's madness.
It's indoctrinated madness.
I totally agree, Tim. Thank you for that.
We'll stick to sort of this topic.
We'll go to David in Denver now.
You have a theory about transgenders.
Go ahead, David. You're on the air. Hey, Harrison.
How's it going? Good. Thank you.
unidentified
So, bear with me.
I know you're not one of the believers in the whole alien thing and whatnot, but bear with me here.
If that is the case, and we are in touch with extraterrestrials, and they won't reveal themselves because they feel we're too primitive.
You know, they're not going to share their technology.
Make us... Get off of fossil fuels.
You know, get clean energy.
Part of the reason, bear with me, this theory that they're not revealing themselves because they feel we're too primitive.
We can't even stop killing each other over the color of our skin or who believes in the Easter Bunny or not.
So, this whole New World Order thing If they're out there, you know, they don't want to deal with this until they get the whole planet on the same page.
You guys got to get your crap together.
So that's a whole New World Order thing.
They've tried everything to get everybody under one thumb.
harrison smith
But how does this relate to transgenderism?
unidentified
Okay, you can't even deal with white or black or...
So if they do reveal themselves and you're going down the street walking next to a gray or a reptilian, they may have no gender.
It's an attempt for us to say, look, we can accept people that, you know, are female, but they're not.
You know, if we can accept that, we can accept a reptilian.
You kind of see where I'm going?
harrison smith
Yeah, I get where you're going with that, you know.
Yeah, I mean, I think it's...
It's interesting, and whether you're talking about outer space aliens or just inhuman entities, I think there's definitely something there.
Forget transgender.
It's trans-dimensional that we really should be worried about.
Trans-dimensional bathrooms.
That'll be the next big argument that we're tricked into.
But I had a friend that was talking to a group of people, a smart dude, and they were talking about transgenderism or something, and One of the leftists he was talking to was like, well, we're all transitioning.
He was like, what do you mean?
They're like, we're transitioning away from being human beings.
We're transitioning into becoming gods.
Like, that's what regular, normal...
You know, subjects of this mind control think about.
That's how they think about this.
It's like, well, we all transition.
Transitioning male to female, like, why not?
We're all transitioning into gods, into something more than human.
Like, they have these people legitimately thinking that they're on some sort of path to godhood.
Literally, literally the oldest lie in the book.
Right? The first lie in the book, the Bible, like, it's this.
So... The oldest lie in the book, they're falling for it, and it's pathetic and sad, and whether it's demons or aliens, maybe it is all just preparing us for this inhuman future.
I think you have a point there, David.
Thank you for that call. We'll go to Justin in Florida.
He wants to talk about transgenderism.
Then we'll go to Jefferson. He wants to tell us, we've got to stop talking about transgenderism.
Let's go to Justin first.
Thanks for calling in, Justin. You're on the air about transgender ideology.
Go ahead. Yeah.
unidentified
The other day, I had this guy Come deliver me some cattle.
And he brought up the subject that he was a teacher at a private Christian school.
And I asked him how that was.
And then I was joking around saying, well, you don't teach that stuff.
You know, that LGTB stuff in there, do you?
And he laughed and he said, no, but I'll tell you a story.
He told me that that come in because their parents are sick of them.
Or the public schools come in and they have stories to tell them.
harrison smith
The people from the public schools go to the private schools and say, you know, basically they're trying to undo the indoctrination that they've been through?
unidentified
Correct. And they end up opening up, you know, what they're kind of pushing on them.
Like, they'll take them to the side and ask them these type of questions.
And he said there's been multiple cases just last year of that happening, which it's never happened.
You know, he's never heard anything like that.
And I'm just trying to figure out why all of a sudden a push to indoctrin our kids believing these false ideologies and pretty much a false religion.
Yeah, it's kind of crazy.
harrison smith
Well, I mean, that's the thing, is that this type of rhetoric has sort of been simmering under the surface for a while, and I guess they finally just reached critical mass.
I think it has to do with COVID and the way that that was enforced in a top-down manner, as the physician that talked to Rufo mentioned.
I think it has a... I mean, I think anybody with kids in school is sort of realizing this.
I mean, the good aspect of that is that that means we're in the first sort of push of this.
And we're still in the process of normal, regular parents who just, like, watch the local news and don't read into any of this stuff.
They're starting to learn what's going on, and so we're still in the first clash where it's all kind of confusing and mixed up, and we're like, what's going on here?
And as more people understand it and more people realize what's going on, there's going to be a massive pushback.
So we're still in the aftershock, like when you...
If you're walking on the street and you see some guy stab another person and just for a second you're like, whoa, did I really just see that?
What's going on? You're in this state of shock and only once we get over that and you go, okay, yes, this is really happening and I need to step in, then humanity can get involved.
So we're still kind of reeling from that shock.
We have to make sure that we provide a nice smooth landing for people and tell them, look, yes, this is crazy.
No, you're not the crazy one.
Yes, this is on purpose.
Yes, this is a wider scam.
And, you know, try to show people where this goes and why this is such a pernicious and dangerous road to travel down.
So that, I guess, may be some good news and that's why it seems so overwhelming right now is we're still in the very first push here.
And once everything gets settled down a little bit, we'll be able to push back with...
Hopefully all of America behind us, because everybody recognizes how absurd all of this is.
We'll go to Jefferson in Virginia in a second, because I said I would, and he says we're devoting too much time to this.
But just to prove him right, we're going to devote a little bit more time to it.
Wayne in Texas also wants to talk about gender dysphoria.
Let's go now to Wayne. Thank you for the call, by the way.
Wayne, go ahead. Hello, Harrison.
wayne in texas
Thanks for having me on. Hey, I just wanted to say, you know, there is a correlation between And causation between the lady and her comments about, you know, women not being able to wear pants, but now she can because in the foundations of, you know, the LGBTQ plus movement, you know, the big thing was, was coming out of the closet.
So you had the drag queens that would play dress up, men wearing women's clothes and vice versa.
And, you know, that's taken on a whole new meaning now with body modification and then another layer of separation.
Through chemical injections and castration and things like that, but each one of these layers of these ways of trying to alter or change your perception of reality through a wardrobe or body modification or injections is a type of objectified escapism where people try to hide themselves from the truth into a different disassociative identity.
In a sense, it's like a feedback loop or a simulation to where Every time they try to escape into that new identity, there's a perpetual backsliding and then they're confronted with the truth again and then they disappear into another identity and so on and so on.
And largely in part, that's what we're seeing.
harrison smith
Wow, that was very well put, Wayne.
matt infowars
Loving that call, Wayne.
harrison smith
Yeah, you're a smart guy, Wayne.
That was really well put, really intelligently laid out there.
We'll go to Jefferson on the other side here in the first five minutes of the next hour before I welcome my guests.
But more calls ahead, a lot more discussion ahead.
We're going to talk about how crazy this really goes in a second.
Welcome back, folks. We're going to be joined by my guest, Brandon Weikert, here in just a second.
But in the first five minutes of this hour, I wanted to finish up taking calls.
Jefferson in Virginia says we're devoting too much time to the LGBT agenda.
I have to agree with you, Jefferson.
Really wish we didn't have to cover this at all, ever.
But it's the world that we're in.
Thanks for calling in, Jefferson. What are your thoughts on this?
jefferson in virginia
Good morning, Harrison. I'm going to have to listen to Wayne over again.
He was too insightful for me on the subject.
I'll have to go back over it.
harrison smith
I don't know if he wrote that down and was reading it or something, but yeah, I totally agree.
We were saying the same thing in the crew.
jefferson in virginia
That was high-quality stuff, way over my head, I think.
But I just think we need to prioritize what's important, and this transgender issue, along with the drag queen story time and the LGBTQ issue, I think the last hour of War Room every day is devoted to this kind of silly talk about stuff is kind of not a priority.
The ship's state is sinking.
We're on the Titanic all together, and we're worried about what's happening on the lower decks When we're all going to die anyway.
I mean, if you listen to Steve Quayle and Mike Adams talk about nuclear war about to break out at any moment, we're worried about LGBTQ way too often when bigger things are going on.
And I think we should just limit ourselves.
Amongst all three shows, we should talk about this issue maybe for 20 minutes each day.
harrison smith
That's it. Yeah, I wish we didn't have to talk about it at all, but...
I'll tell you why I think it's important to talk about a couple of those reasons.
You know, first of all, it's always in response to whatever they're doing, right?
It's always because they have some massive push and it's especially heavy right now because it's June, it's Pride Month.
However, you know, when you've got the Bud Light protests and the Target protests and the Call of Duty protests, I mean, this is something that...
It spans political aisles, or at least it should, theoretically.
It doesn't matter how you feel about the Constitution or, you know, tax rates or whatever.
You should be able to understand the transgender push, and people do.
And so it's actually something that we can actually get a lot of support with of people going, yeah, this is too much, this is too far.
Transgenderism is the thing that really pushes a lot of people over the edge to go, what the hell's going on here?
And Other conservative places really don't talk about this as much.
You have some that are sort of dedicated to talking about this topic, but for the most part, Fox News is running, you know, packages, news packages, where they're celebrating transgender kids.
So this is another place where, like, the corporate conservative and liberals are on the same side on this.
We're on the other side.
We're on the outside of this, trying to push reality.
I also think it's so indicative and illustrative of everything else that we see going on where it is sort of the perfect example of a basic rejection of reality and facts and human nature that goes along with communism and socialism, which always fails because it doesn't take human nature into account, all this sort of stuff.
It all ties in together.
And at the end of the day, I think it's important because as I've talked about before, I have friends, you know, my wife's friends and people she works with, like who are like confronted with this.
They have their daughter coming home from school saying she thinks she's a boy, and they don't know how the hell to deal with it, and they don't have any resources out there telling them what's really going on.
If they start searching for it, all they have is the official sources that tell them, you must affirm, you must chop your child's body parts off.
So it's like I almost feel like we have an obligation to To put forward reality, to try to help the average parent out there that's being confronted with this for the first time and doesn't know what to do and doesn't have any resources other than us and a few other places that are actually, will be telling them, like, this isn't real, this isn't your child, you know, experiencing something real.
They're being indoctrinated into something.
So, I'm with you.
I wish we didn't have to talk about this so much, but we do.
Okay, welcome back. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the American Journal.
I am your host, Harrison Smith.
Very happy to welcome my guest, author Brandon Weikert.
He's a geopolitical analyst and contributing editor to American Greatness, the Asia Times, and the Washington Times.
Brandon is a former congressional staffer and has earned his master's in statecraft and national security affairs at the Institute of World Politics in Washington, D.C.
You can find his website at theweikertreport.wordpress.com.
He's on Twitter at WeTheBrandon.
And his new book is called Biohacked: China's Race to Control Life.
And that's now available on Amazon.
Again, it's called Biohacked: China's Race to Control Life.
Welcome to the show, Brandon.
Thank you so much for coming on.
brandon weichert
Well, thanks for having me.
harrison smith
It's a pleasure to be here. Well, it's a pleasure to have you.
Especially, I haven't had a chance to read your book, but I'm incredibly intrigued by the title.
Break it down for us. What does this mean, biohacked?
And how is China trying to control life?
brandon weichert
Well, it's like the word suggests, hacking the biology of not just human beings but of all living things using a device that American scientists created known as CRISPR-Cas9.
That's a gene editing tool.
We have been trying to do this for many years.
We use that to map the human genome.
But we started sharing this technology with the Communist Chinese.
And the Chinese have now taken that capability and they've scaled it up.
And now they're doing some truly horrific things with that technology, that capability.
And they are using that not just to try to beat American companies from creating New, innovative cures for diseases like cancer or HIV. They're now actually weaponizing this capability to create what the Chinese military bioweapons program director calls Specific ethnic genetic attacks.
That's basically they're taking all of the genetic data they can get their hands on through a company called Beijing Genomics Institute, and they're putting it into the world's largest database of genetic information known as the Gene Bank in Beijing.
And they're using artificial intelligence to correlate that information and to identify groups of people and individuals that they don't like, their genetics, and then trying to tailor weapons and illnesses that will wipe out those groups or individuals without ever being attributed to and then trying to tailor weapons and illnesses that will wipe out And so we've given them that capability.
That's what I mean by biohacking.
It's also the subtitle, the race to control life.
That's exactly what this is.
They are trying to control the very building blocks of life in order to create, for lack of a better term, the perfect communist man.
And so that's what we're up against.
And we're giving them in China the tools and capabilities that will basically be used to destroy us and humanity overall in the name of Han Chinese supremacy.
harrison smith
Oh, boy.
Yeah, I feel like you just opened up a Pandora's boxers.
There's so many different ways that this is horrifying and creepy and apocalyptic, it seems to me.
Dystopian is a number of words you could apply to this.
Yeah. And there's actually been a little bit of talk about this recently from, like, Congress.
I think Rand Paul brought this up as well, the idea of biospecific genomic, like, It's tailor-made infections that can affect you.
So is the way this works, they could send out an infection to where for 99.99999% of people it has no effect, and yet they pass it through, but once it infects the one person it's tailor-made for, they get sick and die?
I mean, is that the way that this works?
You can almost be harboring a viral weapon without even knowing it and then pass it on to somebody who it's intended for?
brandon weichert
Absolutely. That's what they're building the capabilities to do.
They haven't quite got it yet, because it's still rudimentary.
But this is explicitly what the Chinese talk about in their military white papers.
And this is the stuff that I could find in the public domain.
So you could imagine, given how secretive China is, The stuff they're saying behind closed doors and the capabilities they're building out behind the scenes are probably infinitely worse and scarier than what we can find in public research databases.
And the worst part is that American pharmaceutical companies And the NIH, the National Institute of Health, as well as former Dr.
Anthony Fauci's former group, the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, US taxpayer-funded groups, government entities, have been sharing research capabilities We have a real problem here where you have the US scientific community helping unwittingly.
They just want the cures and the money and the prestige.
They don't realize that all that information and data they're sharing with places like the Wuhan Institute of Virology are being weaponized I've been one of the few consistent voices trying to stop this from happening.
harrison smith
Yeah, it seems to be a very real threat.
And, you know, obviously, I would guess that means America is working on weapons along a similar line as well, right?
brandon weichert
Well, I would assume that we are.
The issue is that we don't view biotechnology the way that China does.
China has the military-civil fusion, MCF, that they've been basically tailoring to beat us as part of their unrestricted warfare doctrine.
The Chinese know they can't defeat us in an open war in a fair fight.
So what they want to do is they want to use non-military means to weaken and basically defeat us without having to fight us in a fair fight directly.
So biotechnology is one of those areas.
Yes, they're developing explicit bioweapons, and we have bioweapons as well that we've developed going back decades.
But the Chinese aren't just looking at things like sarin or VX, nerve gas.
They're trying to use the quest for vaccines and for cures to diseases to gain access to our CRISPR-Cas9 capabilities Where they are then taking that information and weaponizing it.
So in the book, I talk about coronavirus, COVID-19.
It came from the lab, and I actually don't think it was an accidental leak.
I know people like Senator Cotton do, and maybe they're right, but I actually think that it came from the lab, and it was launched at us purposely by the Chinese government.
And the Chinese government did coronavirus research.
They actually had a 2015 white paper that I referenced in the book in which they explicitly talked about the military, and China did, weaponizing coronaviruses in order to collapse a rival country like America's medical and economic system in order to have long-lasting strategic political effects on the targeted weaponizing coronaviruses in order to collapse a rival country like America's What happened in 2020?
We got rid of Donald Trump, who was the number one threat to the Chinese military and government.
We had never had a president since Nixon use trade like we did against China.
Usually it's China using it on us, the trade war.
Trump went after foodstuffs coming out of the United States going into China.
The Chinese leaders looked at that and said the number one way that regimes collapse in China is through famine.
So they thought we were launching an unrestricted warfare attack on them.
So in turn, after they signed that trade deal with Trump, which was bad for China, just a couple months later, coronavirus comes out of nowhere, and suddenly America's losing its mind It's a biological 9-11.
That's unrestricted warfare.
They didn't want to kill us all.
They just wanted to remove a big problem for them and weaken us in the process.
harrison smith
And of course, they had partners in crime in that regard in the American Deep State and NIH and Dr.
Fauci. I completely agree with you.
I don't think it was an accidental release at all.
And we've been saying that for a while.
All the evidence points towards that.
And it looks like more and more people are at least coming around to the idea that it was created in a lab.
I mean, that's pretty much undeniable at this point, although you still will see denials.
I have a couple stories just from today that...
It's not speculation anymore.
The spectator says, Wuhan clan, we finally know the identity of the scientist in the lab linked to COVID. So it's not even, you know, maybe it came from a lab.
It's here's the scientist who made it and was the first one to come down with it.
So, yeah, I think...
This is a major issue, but man, it goes so much far beyond that.
So we'll get into that. Other stuff on the other side, when you say biohacking, the first person I picture is Yuval Noah Harari who talks about animals are hackable humans now.
So I'm going to get into what that means and the way that China is using CRISPR already on human babies.
Now they're creating babies without a sperm or an egg out of stem cells.
So, I mean, you talk about opening Pandora's box.
This gene-altering madness is...
Apocalyptic, to say the least.
Again, the book is called Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life.
We'll be back with Brandon Weichert on the other side.
The Weichert Report.wordpress.com.
We'll be right back. He's on Twitter at WeTheBrandon.
on Twitter.
We'll be right back.
All right, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm telling you, the rabbit hole we are traveling down now is, well, it's a full-fledged warren.
It's a rabbit warren, and it is deep and dark and foreboding.
But we're going to head down there and see what light we can bring to it.
I'm here with Brandon Weikert.
You can find his website at theweikertreport.wordpress.com, and that's W-E-I-E. C-H-E-R-T. So, theweikertreport.wordpress.com.
He's on Twitter at WeTheBrandon.
And the book is called Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life.
And, I mean, there's so many millions of places to go with this.
I want to understand a little bit more about what you're saying about the capabilities of...
Virus hacking and how it can be tailor-made.
You know, I've always had a suspicion when you see some of these deep state guys, they're all bald.
They all are totally, they've shaved their heads and they're all totally bald.
And people see that and they go, why is everybody bald?
I've always thought, does this have to do with DNA? Are they terrified of having their DNA taken and then sequenced and then used as a weapon against them?
Can it be tailored down to an individual or a race?
Or can it even be tailored to like, I mean, they're discovering sort of things like the genes that make you maybe more conservative or more liberal.
I mean, how closely can they tailor this to the individual, to a large group, to a small group?
What are the capabilities they have already?
brandon weichert
Well, as somebody who is not follically blessed, I would say I don't know if the baldness is a commonality of choice, or if it's just a byproduct of living in that government lifestyle.
I can tell you, I used to work in government, so it's a high-stress job, and you're losing the hair there.
But there is a real concern, and in fact, I talk about this in the book, When the Olympians were going to Beijing for the Olympics, a warning was put out by then-Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, who was Trump's—I think he was the last DNI for Trump—he sent a warning to the Olympic Committee saying,
do not allow for the Olympians to give over any of their hair or blood or urine samples, which is something that normally happens before they do drug tests and things like that before the games begin in the host country.
Don't do that because the Chinese are going to take that information and they're going to put it into that gene bank I mentioned in the previous section, and they're going to then, the fear was, save that data and then try to gene edit those Olympiad traits into their people, specifically their military, save that data and then try to gene edit those Olympiad traits into their people, specifically their military, but also possibly just more generally the Han Chinese people
Obviously, again, I want to stress, this is all in the rudimentary technological phase, but as I say in the book from the movie Prometheus, big things have small beginnings.
And so by collecting all the data, collecting all the capabilities, they're building a foundation where they will then be able to scale it up and do these specific ethnic genetic attacks.
Another group they're doing this on, the first group they're testing this on, are those poor Uyghurs, the ethnic Turkic Muslim Uyghurs in Western China, Xinjiang Province.
They're being rounded up by the millions, put into these—and let's call them what they are—concentration camps.
And then the first thing they are forced to do is hand over blood, urine, semen, hair, skin samples to the Chinese prison guards who then send all that data back to the gene bank in Beijing where then the Chinese military go through and they're trying to find is there some genetic trait that would allow for them to develop specific ethnic genetic attacks It's absolutely horrifying.

It's dystopian. It's dystopian.
I mean, it's like we need stronger words.
I don't know. Maybe there's a word in German that fully encapsulates just how horrifying this is.
But dystopian is sort of what we have to use now because, honestly, everything going on right now is so far beyond description.
And I want to get into sort of the feedback process loop of like once you're genetically engineering people who are stronger and smarter, then they're going to...
It's a feedback.
I want to get into that, but let me just stick with the pandemic thing for a second.
Was the Chinese military gearing up to release a pandemic before COVID-19?
I mean, is there evidence that this was a plan that was actuated that would really belie the claim that this was an accidental release?
Is there evidence that this was a weapons system that was being created?
brandon weichert
I found evidence that suggested that yes.
And again, everything in my book is cited.
I wasn't just making this up.
There are hundreds of endnotes, hundreds of bibliography, hundreds of pages of bibliography.
And so what I found in the book when I did the research was that the Wuhan Institute of Virology is part of the Chinese military.
And that it was built by a French firm in 2003.
It took an extraordinary long time, longer than usual, to build this facility in Wuhan because the French intelligence services were trying to stop the French company RTV from completing the project because they were warning RTV, this is not going to be used for above-board medical research, this is going to be used for virulent bioweapons research.
And RTV didn't care because they wanted the money, which is typical of Western firms.
And so China was given this BSL-4, Biosafety Level 4, capability, which is the most serious amount of pathogens they can play with, with the understanding from everybody that they were, of course, going to use this for pernicious bioweapons experimentation.
In fact, the facility, while we know about the Batwoman of Wuhan, Dr.
Shi Zhengli, which is their leading expert on coronaviruses, She's technically a civilian, although she is involved with the military.
She was running that facility until COVID broke out.
Then when COVID broke out, a woman named General Chen Wei, who is the leading People's Liberation Army biogenetics expert, she was pulled in and took direct control of the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
She goes by another nickname that they proudly call her in China's press, the goddess of war.
And that's who was controlling the Wuhan Institute of Virology after the disease was loosed.
So I do believe, yes, this was a bioweapon in development.
I don't know if they intended to use it as soon as 2020, but once Trump initiated the agricultural trade war, plus those Hong Kong democracy protests began in 2019, I would I fundamentally believe President Xi Jinping, the leader of China, was not looking at those as unconnected events.
I think he thought, oh my gosh, the Americans have elected a madman who's going to use our tactics against us.
Trade war. I've got to fire back in a non-military way.
I'm going to unleash a disease that they think is the flu, a biological 9-11 that they won't see coming.
And that will force the Americans to turn on themselves rather than attack me like they did to bin Laden after the original 9-11.
And I think that's what happened.
He wanted to get rid of Trump, and he knew it was an election year, and this is how the Chinese did it.
And they're going to do something like this again if there's an American leader they don't like.
They're already playing with smallpox at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
harrison smith
Totally horrifying. And the implications of what you've just laid down, that you have Western firms building the lab, but you also have the NIH and others contributing.
I mean, they were, as you lay out, like in bed with the Chinese military, developing a weapon system that was then deployed on the world.
And of course, it benefited China, too, to have themselves infected with it.
They got a lot of, you know, what they wanted.
I mean, they're communists, they have full power anyway, but this gave them the justification for even More stringent restrictions over their own people.
And we'll talk about how they're working with the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization on the other side.
We'll get into the, I don't want to call it positive gene editing, but rather than creating viruses to kill people, actually enhancing physical and mental capabilities through gene editing.
We'll get into all of that on the other side.
Again, the book is Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life by author Brandon Weikert.
We'll be back on the other side.
Welcome back, folks. This might be a little bit obscure or off topic, but I find it endlessly fascinating and bizarre how this happens.
My guest is Brandon Weikert.
We're talking about DNA manipulation and biohacking.
That's the name of his book, Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life.
You know, I was talking about the idea of CIA agents and that sort of stuff, like shaving their heads because my guess is they don't want people getting a strand of their hair and then being able to, you know, reverse engineer some sort of biological attack against them.
I've thought that for a while.
And it's almost like you have this, there's old superstitions.
There's an episode of Sopranos where he goes to Italy and he sees the woman getting her fingernails cut and she collects all the nails and keeps them and he asks her why and she says, well, so witches can't use the nails to bewitch me.
Or you think about voodoo dolls, right?
You gotta put the hair on the voodoo doll.
There's almost this like, if you get a piece of them, then you have control over them.
And it's like becoming real and it's similar to the idea of like, you have this old story of vampires drinking blood.
Now you have people doing blood transfusions to stay young.
I mean, there's something like, Like metaphysical about this, about these old tales and superstitions now almost becoming real with scientific advancement.
This might be totally off the wall, but any thoughts on that, Brandon, and just the way that this stuff is like, there's something intrinsic in us that recognizes how evil all this stuff is?
brandon weichert
Yeah, no, I think you're onto something.
You know, I suffer from a pretty serious autoimmune disease, and I have to rely on medicines to go through the day.
But medicine married to ethics and some sense of Judeo-Christian value set I think can be a wonderful thing.
But what we're talking about now is a group of medical elites who have absolutely no greater ethical principle or religious doctrine other than getting rich, getting famous, getting prestige, getting more power, and they don't care how they're going to do it.
And so you're right.
I think it was Churchill, and I'm paraphrasing now, but Churchill said that all warfare is ultimately spiritual.
Right. I think what we're witnessing here with this quest to this race to control life is the arrogance of unbelieving men trying to control the building blocks of life, which I would dare say should be preserved only for God.
But perhaps I'm old school in that way.
But I do think you're right. This is part of a larger spiritual war that's going on.
And it's not just between nations.
It's between men and women who are believers and unbelievers.
And it's really sad to see.
And it's really kind of scary.
But it is metaphysical, I think, too.
harrison smith
Yeah. I think it's a good basis to start with and sort of go, look, we gotta, because we can't just respond to this.
This is something we can't just afford to respond retroactively to.
We can't just let these people carry out these experiments and then try to go, well, now that you've done it, let's try to make laws to determine how.
It's almost like we have to start with the spiritual grounding of you do not mess with God's creation.
We're starting there. And if you want to, you have to justify to us why you should be able to not wait till it happens and then try to, you know, Irreversible in a lot of cases.
And so, you know, we've mentioned a few times the idea of like...
Bio-enhancement of being able to actually change people's genes to make them stronger or faster or not question authority quite so much.
I mean, once you open that Pandora's box, once you start that process going, it's a self-fulfilling thing because then the smartest and most intelligent, most powerful people are, you know, they'll be the first ones to get the technology and then they'll become even more so and then they'll become even more so and the people who are left behind are just going to be completely outclassed.
And so I know that there's a guy in China that got in trouble for Actually manipulating with CRISPR Chinese twins, but he's out now.
He was sent to jail for a little while, but I mean, what's happening in that regard of editing human genes to enhance or alter the human body?
brandon weichert
What's going on there? Well, that's one of the big targets that they're trying to do, and this is one of the reasons why American and Western tech tycoons and tech and biotech industries are partnering with Chinese tech firms, because unlike in the United States,
where there is still some degree of ethical and legal and regulatory framework that prevents some of these really crazy, risky biotech R&D experiments from going too far ahead, In China, there is no limit.
And so if the Americans who want this technology can't get it here by developing it here, they happily partner with China.
And so what we're seeing—you're talking about Hu Jiangui, who was one of their leading in China, leading researchers in biotechnology.
He had a patient who had, who were having twins, the patients had genetically, they were predisposed to HIV, they had HIV, the mother was infected with it, and the HIV had passed through the blood-brain barrier of the twins that she was carrying,
and so they knew that these children were going to be born with a horrible disease, HIV-AIDS. And so Hu Jankui went in, using CRISPR-Cas9 with two of his lab assistants, and he gene-edited out the genes in the two babies, unborn babies, that were gonna make them susceptible to HIV over the course of their lives.
He removed that. The babies were born, they were healthy, so good for him that he saved two children from a terrible illness, but what they found, and this was reported in MIT Technology Review, a very respected publication, and I cite it in the book, What they found was that there were undocumented—they didn't get into specifics of what they were—but what they found was that there was brain augmentations made to the two twins after they were born.
And the reason that Hu Jiankui was put in jail was not because the Chinese government was so offended that he did this research.
No, it was because it became public knowledge, which meant that the Western press had it, which meant that Western audiences and policymakers on the Hill were aware of it, and the Chinese government was worried, oh my gosh, the Americans, at least some of them, might start trying to stop us from using CRISPR-Cas9. might start trying to stop us from using CRISPR-Cas9.
So they threw him in jail because I think they were trying to cover up the fact that this was a state-sanctioned mission, that this was a proof of concept that the Chinese government wants to scale up now and apply it across the board with the help of Western pharmaceutical companies and Western tech innovators and investors.
unidentified
Absolutely horrifying.
harrison smith
And, you know, they're not just doing it with humans.
And then, of course, we covered just earlier this week the synthetic embryo that was created out of stem cells.
So, you know, you can say, well, it's immoral to do it to humans, but is this even a human?
I mean, we made it in a lab, so why shouldn't we be able to manipulate it as we will?
So, I mean... We're getting into very murky waters morally and ethically, so I think having that firm stance from the beginning and saying you can't do this, it's not allowed, I don't care if you're framing it as we're saving people from disease, because that's always how they're going to start it, right?
They're always going to start it just like they're doing with the brain implants.
They say, well, but it helps paralyzed people walk.
You're against paralyzed people walking, but what they're doing is opening the door to...
Right. Untold horrors coming down the pipe.
So, I mean, how do you deal with that when they say, oh, but the babies were cured?
What's your problem with curing babies, Brandon?
brandon weichert
Well, so this is why in the book, the last few chapters, I scare the heck out of the reader.
And then the last few chapters, I offer what I think are real solutions to the problem.
And one of the big things that addresses this issue is the U.S. still has a lot of people that do not want to do this stuff willy-nilly.
So the U.S. must lead the world, because we're still the dominant power.
We must lead the world in creating an international consensus We're good to go.
So I propose doing that with biotech, creating an international consensus, getting as many countries on board to say we will do biotech R&D, but it's going to be very limited and we're not going to do this ghoulish, freakish stuff that's going on in China.
And we're going to resist the calls to do that, even if it means slowing down cures.
Because as we saw with the COVID vaccine, which I'm very skeptical of, We saw with the COVID vaccine, there's a lot of unintended consequences, and there's a lot of dangers to forcing this kind of experimental treatment on the human race before we're ready.
And so we need a treaty governing that, and then we will use that treaty to basically punish a nation like China that dares to violate the norms there, kind of like what we do with rogue states and their nuclear weapons programs.
harrison smith
You know, the nuclear weapons, I think, is actually a very apropos comparison because I think the destructive power is equal, if not more significant, with biohacking.
Biohacked China's Race to Control Life is the book.
We'll be back on the other side with our final segment with Brandon Weikert.
If you want to talk about living in a sci-fi reality, we are thoroughly in the dystopian stories that people have told and really told as a warning, as a lighthouse, saying, stay away, there's rocks here, don't come this way. Well, we're here already.
I can see it now, the future wars between the augmented...
Drone-style Chinese super soldiers versus the ragtag pure humans fighting for...
I mean, it's crazy where we are right now.
And you cover so much of this.
In fact, if people want to go to...
My guest is Brandon Weikert, and his website is theweikertreport.wordpress.com.
You cover a lot more than just biohacking, just geopolitics and war, and so much of what you get into will be of interest to people who watch this show.
But the book that we're discussing now is Biohacked.
It's available on Amazon, Biohacked, China's Race to Control Life.
And, you know, when you hear the term biohacked, I know myself and a lot of our audience, the first thing we think of is Yuval Noah Harari, sort of the spiritual, if you can even call it that, guru of the World Economic Forum who says, you know, humans are hackable now.
They're hackable animals. We can control them.
So it's not just China that's doing this, right?
I mean, there's a whole contingent of, I guess you could say Western, you know, corporations and people who are engaged in this.
unidentified
Is that right? Yeah, yes, absolutely, yes.
brandon weichert
They're fellow travelers in the World Economic Forum, in the World Health Organization, in the UN. The thing that I think, though, is very interesting, and I talk about this in one of the chapters called Eggheads, in which I sort of talk about how Western scientists like Yuval are basically doing the bidding of the Chinese Communist Party,
thinking that they are changing the world for a globalist We're good to go.
They're actually, I think, being used unwittingly by the Chinese Communist Party to basically control Western populations, to force these technologies and these changes upon the West so that the Chinese Communist Party can bloodlessly or relatively bloodlessly achieve to force these technologies and these changes upon the West so that the Chinese Communist Party can bloodlessly or relatively bloodlessly achieve its China Vision 2049, which is China Dream 2049, which is to become the world's only dominant superpower
And so I think Yuval and all these world economic foreign types and all these masters of the universe, they're actually not masters of the universe.
They are either knowingly or in many cases unwittingly the useful idiots of Xi Jinping's very nationalist Chinese agenda of making China the dominant power in the world without having to start a major war to do it.
harrison smith
Yeah, and I think that's fascinating, the marriage of nationalists and globalists, because it reminds me a little bit of, well, there's a lot of parallels between this and climate change, but similar to climate change, they impose massive restrictions here in the West, and then they outsource everything to China and pollute even more because China has no restrictions.
I see a similarity there between, you know, we have ethics and morals here, so we don't do the experimental research.
And they just outsource it to China where there are no such restrictions.
I mean, do you see the similarity there as well?
brandon weichert
Oh, yeah. It's all connected in that way.
And again, in every instance of these globalist ambitions, they think they're the ones driving this, but they don't realize that they've either—well, in many cases, I think they unknowingly have been co-opted, but in some cases probably have been knowingly, like Hunter Biden and Joe Biden, knowingly co-opted by China.
And they all think that this is in service to some globalist, utopian, socialist agenda.
But it's actually just going to elevate the national ambitions of the Chinese Communist Party elite.
And so one day they're going to wake up thinking they've won, these globalists, and they're going to find themselves to be nothing more than the house slaves in China's new global empire, with the rest of us, of course, being in the fields or in the concentration camps.
But that's where this is headed.
China is duping the globalists, I think, of the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization And they're all being played for fools the way Stalin played the Western elite for fools who loved the Soviet Union.
harrison smith
It is. It's sort of, I mean, the only question is who's tricking who?
Who's pulling one over on who?
It's just the most dishonest and power-hungry people you can imagine on both sides just trying to pull one over on one another.
I guess this is what happens when you totally untether your power structure to any sense of morality whatsoever.
You know, what do you expect to have?
And you actually have personal experience with this.
You were telling me during the break your wife, while she was at Yale, was actually recruited by China.
Can you tell us a little bit about that?
brandon weichert
Well, they tried to recruit her.
I was working on the Hill, and I was doing work with the government, so I was well-versed in what China's Thousand Talents program was.
And so basically it was founded by a guy named Yi Rao, who of course published a hit piece on Tom Cotton in the New York Times.
But this guy helped to create the Thousand Talents program, which is basically China's attempt We're good to go.
We're getting these emails from Wuhan-based Chinese state-owned entities.
This is back in 2014, before anybody really knew what Wuhan was.
And they were saying, come to China after your PhD and come work in one of our labs.
You'll be given top billing in academic publications, which is a big deal for new PhD students.
They don't normally get that. That's a very high honor.
And also, as a signing bonus, if you're still hesitant, As a signing bonus, we will pay off 100% of your student loans before you even get on the plane to come to China.
And that is what we're facing, is that now the Chinese industrial espionage artists are using our student loan crisis We're good to go.
The Yale University, you know, the leaders had to be aware that these Chinese biotech firms were going to send this email to you, which means that our research institutions are actively involved with trying to create connections with and send their top talent over to China, where they will basically serve the interests of the Chinese military.
So we have a much larger problem here than even, I think, the national security experts realize or care to acknowledge Which is China uses our student loan crisis, they're targeting our next generation of innovators, and oh by the way, it looks like many of our academic and research institutions are actually helping the Chinese government to do that.
So this is a big problem.
harrison smith
Yeah, it is a big problem, man.
I mean, it's almost unfathomable how big this problem is.
And it's extremely tempting.
It'd be an extremely tempting offer.
We pay everything off. Just come on over.
Of course, that's how it always works.
It seems so nice and easy to do that.
Once you go through Yale, you've been subjected to four, six, eight years of anti-American propaganda saying that America is run by, you know, white racists and they're imperialists.
And so why wouldn't you go over to China?
That's just everything they call us but times ten and actually in reality.
I mean, it's also inverted and absurd.
This has been an amazing conversation.
We could talk about this for hours and we'll have to do that in the future.
My guest again is Brandon Weikert.

Oh, man. Absolutely incredible stuff, folks.
That's about going to do it for us here at American Journal.
We will, of course, be back tomorrow morning bright and early for our Friday edition.
But in the meantime, I do want to ask you to go to Infowarsstore.com as, you know, everything that we talk about.
And whether you think we spend too much time on LGBT or whether, you know, I mean, whether we're talking about nuclear missiles or biohacking, the main thing to understand is this is an information war.
These things, while they are coming to light now, have been in process and being put into place for decades.
We're not going to turn things around overnight.
But finally, we're seeing the pushback by the wider populace that will bring about permanent and positive change if we can really ground ourselves in the foundational beliefs of our founding fathers, of the American dream, Christianity, Judeo-Christian, whatever you want Christianity, Judeo-Christian, whatever you want to call it, this moral framework that has allowed America to be so powerful and such a force for good throughout all of history before it was hijacked and now turned in on itself in the way that we see so obvious.
So support us in this mission, please.
That's all we ask.
We will be here day in and day out fighting for America itself and humanity as a whole.
All that we ask is that you contribute to this and that you help give us the ammo we need to prosecute this information war.
You do that by going to Infowarsstore.com, Brain Force Plus, Brain Force Ultra.
Buy them together. You get a massive discount of 50% off the Brain Force Duo combination.
And best of all, you support this information war.
And not just myself and Alex and Owen, but the incredible crews that back us up.
