The World's Biggest Crypto-Coin Laundering Project The World's Biggest Crypto-Coin Laundering Project
Welcome ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this week's edition of the Sunday Wire.
I'm your host Patrick Henningsen.
We're streaming out live on the Alternate Current Radio Network and also at 21stCenturyWire.com.
Thank you so much for joining us for this weekly omnibus news and analysis radio program brought to you here on ACR.
This is episode 359 of of the Sunday Wire. Again, I'm your host, Patrick Henningsen.
Thank you for joining us. We've got a powerful broadcast lined up for you this
week once again. And we'll be joined later in the second hour by our roving correspondent
for Culture and Sport, Basil Valentine, for a look at many important things, some prescient
predictions and insights.
No doubt we'll be coming with Mr. Valentine as is usual, as is par for the course.
But before that, boy, do we have some important things to talk about.
A lot has transpired in the last week and the landscape has transformed radically.
Uh, and in not, not necessarily in a good way, I'll break down what I'm, what I mean there.
And, uh, we have a number of things to cover.
I mean, the big topic of course, is the inauguration of Joe Biden, the new president in the white house, 46th president of the United States.
We'll talk a little bit about that.
We'll talk about some disturbing things that were.
Done and said this past week things that More likely are going to push the United States even further further down the direction of division and polarization and this is from the supposed unity president or at least that's how it was cheaply marketed and And we'll break down some of that.
And in terms of the UK, there's, in Europe, there's been an effort, we talked about it last week, about the anti-lockdown efforts in countries like Italy.
And this seems to be spreading a little bit.
So businesses are basically looking down the barrel of a gun in terms of lockdowns that they might not recover.
In fact, many are going out of business.
Restaurants, for instance, and bars have been in families for generations are closing in scores.
And this is sad.
Why are they doing this?
Because they can't afford, even with the meager government handouts that are being thrown their way, they can't actually afford to stay in business.
And it doesn't take a genius to put two and two together.
That the certainly the governments who are imposing these types of lockdowns are not interested in these businesses surviving in fact They would like to see they would like to see the end of them, and I'm not being facetious at all In saying that that's not a facetious comment.
That is a statement of fact because if if governments were interested in In saving the livelihoods, saving the small to medium-sized business sector, small industry, entrepreneurs, innovative entrepreneurs in many cases, and also the really the most of the hospitality, food and drink, beverage sector of the economy.
If they're interested in in saving these these livelihoods, these family businesses, they wouldn't be doing what they're doing right now.
And so the The priority appears to be centralized diktats dictating scientific theories, ambiguous statements.
I mean, we just heard the Prime Minister of Britain say that The COVID is getting worse.
The coronavirus is getting even worse now.
Hospitalizations and deaths are up and so forth.
When you actually look into the numbers, this isn't actually the case.
So what we have is a situation where government is doing what it wants to do.
It's saying what it wants to say.
It doesn't necessarily have to correspond to reality.
It's really about pure power.
And we're seeing this in so many different countries.
And now we're seeing more of this coming immediately out of the Biden, the new Biden administration.
They're seeking to capitalize on on this crisis as well.
And one of the one of the media darlings in all this is somebody up in at the University of Edinburgh up in Scotland.
She's actually an American professor.
Her name is Dr. Devi Sridhar.
And she's an interesting character.
She's advising the Scottish government there, Nicola Sturgeon, on COVID policy.
She's on the BBC every five minutes.
And it's interesting, she actually doesn't have any qualifications in virology, in epidemiology.
She's not a medical doctor.
She's got her doctorate or M. doctorate or M.Phil or whatever it is, PhD, I guess, in
global health policy.
She's also co-authored a book with Chelsea Clinton, I believe.
So she's in the Clinton set.
She's a Rhodes scholar, so definitely on that track, the sort of Bill Clinton, liberal internationalist,
globalist track.
And she's advising everybody about COVID.
She gave a very disturbing media appearance just a couple of days ago.
I believe this was on a BBC segment here.
We're going to play this.
Listen to this and then we'll, I mean you won't believe what she's going to say, but This is what we're getting down the pipeline.
Listen to this.
I'd say 2021 is the year of the variant in vaccines, especially the mRNA vaccine manufacturers have said within weeks they can change their vaccines.
So then it becomes a race of how quickly can we redesign the vaccines, roll them out and get them into people's arms faster than, let's say, a new variant could spread.
And so I don't see any way around in the coming year or two having travel restrictions in place, because that's one of the few ways to protect against variants coming in once we deal with the domestic issue of getting the numbers low.
The next year or two to have travel restrictions.
Well, there's no easy way out of this crisis, if I'm completely honest.
I mean, this is a global problem.
So even if we suppress it here effectively and vaccinate everyone, it could be circulating somewhere else in the world.
And all it takes is for someone to get on a plane ride and come here.
And if we have everything open and for it to spread.
So, I mean, the year of the variant, the year of the variant, are you kidding me?
So they can make up A new threat, literally every week.
Literally every week, a new variant.
How come other countries aren't being crippled by all these variants?
It seems to be only the UK and the United States who are running with this.
Of course, France is running with it as well, and a few European countries are running with it, but the rest of the world isn't going into a meltdown anytime someone Talks about the possibility of a new variant or a mutation.
And she says it's about how fast we can get needles into people's arms.
So what this person is talking about, who's not qualified in any way in terms of biological science, she's saying that the vaccine manufacturers are tooled up To deliver a customized vaccine for every new variant that appears.
Do you have any idea how many times a coronavirus mutates?
Do you have any idea how many thousands of mutations?
They can just cherry pick anything that they think they can pick up with a PCR machine or in the lab and then leak that to the press and all of a sudden the government's going crazy and they're locking down left, right and center.
And yet nobody has demonstrated that there's any credible threat, that there's anything new, or there's anything that's above and beyond what are the normal seasonal respiratory viruses that are circulating.
And you have these people, these careerists, these crisis careerists, who are lying to the public, and they're being given a platform By major mainstream broadcasters.
And quite frankly, the journalists don't know the difference themselves.
Because they have marinated in their own propaganda, which they are doing on behalf of government in most cases.
So they have no idea what anybody's talking about.
People are conferred some authority because they're with a university or they have a title that looks impressive, like doctor.
But at the end of the day, they don't know what they're talking about.
Because when we speak to the specialists, the top biological scientists, let's say in America, said immediately that this was, there's nothing to be alarmed about.
There's no evidence that it's more transmissible, any of these so-called variants, nor are they more deadly.
But the propaganda keeps rolling on and you have these, possibly it could affect younger people, and see this is how the media helps to keep the crisis going.
And they can just keep doing this indefinitely.
It doesn't have to be based in fact.
It doesn't have to be based in actual clinical science.
It's literally a merry-go-round of pandemic crisis narratives.
It just keeps going around and around.
And it's straight out of 1984.
This week where Airstrip One is, Oceana is at war with With, you know, we're at war with East Asia, then we're at war with, you know, then Oceania's at war.
I mean, it never ends.
It never ends.
It changes every week.
And you're not, you're not allowed to question it, because it's coming from authority.
And the Ministry of Truth is going to decide who, who can say what, what's wrong, think.
You have to be with the group, think.
I mean, this is just unbelievable.
This is, this is real.
This is where it's at.
And it's quite frightening.
But what's more frightening is that none of these so-called journalists are calling any of these crazy statements out.
They just let people get on and they blather with this pseudoscience.
And you think this is bad.
Wait till they start up on the climate change rhetoric again.
That'll come.
That'll definitely be coming.
Speaking of climate change, it seems that Mount Etna has Mount Etna in Italy has erupted.
One of Europe's only active volcanoes in Italy has erupted.
And it is ejecting millions of tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
And so we are calling on Greta Thunberg to rally the students.
Rally the students.
Get your people down there to Italy immediately.
And stop this.
This climate criminal is getting away with some incredible climate crimes in Italy.
Mother Nature is a climate criminal.
So we are hoping that Greta reacts and can mobilize enough support to stop this.
Basically, this volcano erupting because it's literally ejecting The equivalent of who knows how many years of man-made CO2 into the atmosphere and that's just you know gonna warm up the planet and yeah then we're all gonna die because the sea levels are gonna rise so that's what that's what Greta has been telling us for a couple of years in her long her long career she's by the way Greta's 18 now so she's a legal adult so
So she's fair game for criticism.
A lot of times people criticize some of her polemics.
People on social media would rally to say, don't, she's just a girl and she's, you know, you're picking on this student.
She's a grassroots activist and whatnot.
Listen, she was never a grassroots activist.
She's always had a multi-million dollar PR machine behind her.
It's very easy to look up.
Cory Morningstar, the wrong kind of green, has detailed all of it from day one.
The whole thing was staged, okay?
And she's got some of the biggest environmental charities, Greenpeace, World Wildlife Foundation,
et cetera, all these people and personnel managing her, behind her, putting her on UN
panels, et cetera.
The whole thing has been contrived from day one.
And so she'll be back.
She'll be back and emboldened, certainly this year.
So now what happened in the United States?
What happened, Joe Biden was inaugurated this week, 46th president of the United States.
And it was a bizarre affair, to say the least.
They drafted in over, well, one head of the National Guard said on tape, 60,000 personnel and troops in total just to protect the Biden inauguration.
A little bit of an overkill, but that should give you a taste of things to come with this This administration that they're going to use the power of the federal government and they're going to establish a show of force is effectively what that was.
They put up fencing, barriers, had tens of thousands of troops on the street, many more in fact than you'd ever see combined right now in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, etc, etc.
Maybe five, six fold more.
To defend against what?
To defend against what?
Buffalo Boy with the horns?
A few ragtag MAGA supporters with a few Antifa agent provocateurs mixed in?
And you need the full, you know, you need battalions of US troops to defend against that?
Are the DC police that bad?
Really?
Really?
So it looked more like a military junta, to be quite honest.
That's what it looked like.
And then we get to the new administration.
What did they do?
They didn't have a normal inauguration.
They had, uh, there was no, there was hardly anybody there.
We've got a picture up on the show page.
It's just bizarre.
And everyone's wearing a mask.
Now that's something.
That's something.
If Trump was reelected and had an inauguration, do you think that there would be everyone would be socially distanced?
No one allowed to attend events on Zoom and everyone would be wearing a mask?
Do you really think that would be the case?
And I think not.
I think not.
Now, is that because, uh, are they doing this because there's a pandemic raging?
Well, according to Biden, yes.
This isn't about a pandemic.
I'll explain.
I'll explain later.
So Biden gave his speech.
And what was it about?
It was about unity and supposedly unity and out of one side of the mouth talking about unity, out of the other side of the mouth condemning Half the country as being extremists and domestic terrorists and vowing to hunt them down.
I mean, this should send chills down people's spines that this is actually being said.
I thought Donald Trump was the, uh, the, the next Hitler.
It doesn't look like it.
It doesn't look like it at all.
What did Donald Trump do that was Hitlerian in terms of policy in America?
Did he close any newspapers down?
No.
Did he allow the country to riot and burn half of American cities to the ground after the death of George Floyd?
Yeah, he did.
He didn't really interfere with that.
He let them kind of destroy and get that out of their system, but it didn't really get out of their system.
They're still burning and looting and Ransacking buildings in Portland and Seattle.
Of course, the media is not covering that.
You wouldn't know about it, would you?
So he also talked about the climate.
So it's all about COVID.
It's about climate.
Joe is the pandemic president.
Someone like Biden, you have to understand, needs the pandemic.
He himself has no original ideas.
He launched his whole campaign when he came out.
The first ad he put out was completely contrived.
It was that he was moved by the events in Charlottesville and had to step forward and so forth.
And that was very, very much a staged progression of events, including Charlottesville, by the way.
That was largely created by a number of forces in play behind the scenes to create the perfect storm.
So Biden positioned himself as this great American patriot or something like this.
He has the most lackluster career of any career swamp politician.
In fact, his biggest achievements are being one of the authors of the Patriot Act,
one of the most fascistic pieces of legislation, consolidating power into the federal government,
unprecedented and unconstitutional by nature.
Joe Biden authored that.
Okay.
The taking down the Beer Hall Putsch, the coup d'etat in the Ukraine.
Okay.
The dismemberment of that country politically, that's one of Joe Biden's great achievements.
And then parlaying millions of dollars to his son and other cronies in the Ukraine, doing the same with China.
I mean, one of the most, Joe Biden is one of the most corrupt persons ever to step foot in the Beltway.
Ever.
And with the longest career.
From day one, he was mired in all sorts of corruption, scandals, plagiarism, lying, you name it.
Okay?
And he's been rewarded because that sort of behavior is one of the main currencies of Washington, unfortunately.
And so here he is, 78 years old, barely compus mentis, Possibly suffering from early-stage dementia.
Who knows what he's hopped up on right now.
And immediately they all go into mask mode.
It's bizarre.
To say the least.
What else was he going on?
Okay, it's about race.
Identity politics.
That was part of his speech.
More division.
And he stumbled through it like a kind of... I don't know.
Sort of a dark kind of Mr. Magoo type character.
I mean, he is not fit like physically, mentally, doesn't have the energy level to lead a country like the United States of America.
So what does that say?
He's not leading a country like the United States of America.
He is being handed lines and he spits them out.
He doesn't know what he's saying half the time, but his handlers know exactly what he's saying.
And they're going to make sure that he says it.
And it's a very dark agenda.
I mean, Biden said something during the debates that should have jarred everybody and disturbed the country and beyond.
He says, we are going into a dark winter.
And he said this in the most ominous tone.
And right there, you have to, you know, someone is running for president.
And saying that he's saying the country is going into a dark winter.
I mean, talk about negativity.
But what is he really saying?
He is giving a hint, a clear hint, at what is coming.
And what he and his party and its backers intend to roll out.
Okay?
A dark winter.
And that doesn't stop with... We're not talking about the weather.
We're talking about a dark political winter.
We're talking about purging, political purges.
These are radical, power hungry individuals.
They're obsessed with power.
You hear it every hour.
The media is also parroting this line as well.
What do you hear when you listen to media coverage?
The peaceful transition of power as Biden takes power.
And the power of the office.
And they're talking about it in almost religious terms.
This should disturb people.
Okay, this is not normal language.
The power is not with the presidency.
It shouldn't be in the United States of America.
The power is with the people.
Politicians serve at the pleasure of the people.
They don't take power.
That's something you see.
In fact, there'll be an episode of Crosstalk.
RT's probably arguably their best program ever, hosted by Peter Lavelle.
That'll be up this evening, US time.
And I was a guest.
with Dmitry Babich.
It's a Bullhorns episode of Crosstalk.
And Dmitry Babich is a great Russian journalist, an incredible adept historian.
And he said that during the Soviet Union days, this term power, especially in the early time during the Bolshevik Revolution, this word power was bandied around.
Stalin and Lenin's period is all about power.
They use this word.
Constantly.
And we're seeing this word creep up into American discourse now in terms of Democrat Party, mainstream media.
They love this word.
And Donald Trump, you know, whatever you think Donald Trump is or is not, he was very explicit many times.
And he said so probably even in his last farewell speech, which is an interesting speech.
Of course, I don't agree with All of Trump's policies, specifically the I have a major problem with the assassination of Qasem Soleimani.
I think he was pushed into that by the neocons and also US policy vis-a-vis Israel.
I don't think it's in American interests at all.
Very damaging, in fact.
And will guarantee dragging America into more unwinnable wars and doing tremendous damage to countries that quite frankly don't deserve it in the region.
But that aside, he said that I was put into office because of you.
I work for you.
Very explicit, many times.
So there's no question how Donald Trump viewed himself Uh, his opportunity to lead the country.
He was doing that for the people that elected him and for the whole country.
He was very explicit about that.
You know, improvements in economic gains, uh, real, real economic improvement and things like this, uh, this doesn't just benefit Republican voters or people who voted for Trump.
It benefits everybody.
And we definitely saw that in the first term.
Of the Trump administration.
And mind you, these are policies that were being, you know, decried by the mainstream media and his critics as nationalist.
And, like, it's quite amazing how, in the US, these charlatans in the press, who are completely blinded by their own false sense of self-importance, And they're talking about white nationalism.
So they managed to conflate nationalism with white nationalism.
Somehow that being a nationalist is somehow racist, or in white supremacy.
So white, so nationalism, white nationalism, white supremacy.
Merge all of that into one hyper hyperbolic omelet.
And this is what they're serving up every 10 seconds.
And put racism in there as well.
So somehow characterizing nationalist economic or political policies as racist.
That is the most intellectually bankrupt, disingenuous lie and one of the worst lies that is being pushed around.
Okay?
In the real world, you have globalism and you have nationalism.
They're two distinctively different worldviews.
And both are completely legitimate.
Well, not to some people.
To some people, nationalism is seen as contravening globalism.
So those people who want to move transition away from the nation state, they will always characterize nationalism as some evil authoritarian thing.
Okay.
And those who are following the World Economic Forum's theological diktats of the Great Reset, they also will do the same.
These people, the internationalists, the transnational corporatists, the Silicon Valley technocrats, they view national borders as, well, quite frankly, they don't recognize them.
Because they don't mean anything to them.
Jeff Bezos, he doesn't care.
He'd like to see the end of it.
They want some sort of global governance structure that's good for the monopolies and really to hell with anything else.
As long as they can be there at the top and dictate What the agenda is, what the political, the economic agenda, the social agenda, as long as they can do that and maintain their grip on power and all of their minions in Congress and Senate as well, then national borders are really just superficial constructs.
I don't want to get into the philosophical side of that, but basically that's what you're you're dealing with.
So in just a few months, we've gone from deplatforming to deprogramming.
And well, we'll talk about that in a second.
Let's just let's just listen to this.
This is a this is some of the media reactions from Biden's inaugural speech.
So we got this inauguration mix.
Let's go ahead and roll that.
I thought it was a great speech.
I've been listening to these inaugural addresses since 1961.
John F. Kennedy, ask not.
I thought this was the best inaugural address I ever heard.
That was beautiful.
Beauty heals.
Beauty heals.
There was not one part of that that wasn't just medicine in the wound.
But he also used this moment to attempt to reclaim truth.
We just saw an outgoing president, by count, issued more than 33 some odd thousand assaults on the truth, mistruths, and this was about taking truth and reclaiming facts, George.
Today's inauguration felt more like a church service, right?
And we see there that like after a good sermon, the congregation doesn't want to go home.
In the middle it sounded almost like a homily to me.
A breaking down of all this big language into very simple colloquial I'm just talking to you.
I'm in this vaunted position, but like a priest explaining something from the Bible or something, I'm breaking it down for you so we can all have a common language and a common understanding.
The Bidens are walking into the House now, the White House, where the President and First Lady will make their new home.
For anybody out there wondering, yes, there has been a deep clean of the building, given the fact that the previous occupants did not take coronavirus particularly seriously.
I don't know where to begin, but you could go on and on.
I mean, who could sit through the coverage and listen to some of that?
These people have completely lost the plot.
And if you thought that them getting rid of Donald Trump, the Trump derangement syndrome would somehow dissipate and that they would somehow, you know, at least get back to some level of, of normality in terms of rhetoric.
Think again.
What you have is you have a radical, a radical minority of very privileged people, plutocrats and their gatekeepers in the media.
And they sniff political power.
Okay.
And among them, at least there's a mindset, although they're rampant capitalists, of course, but there are also raving Marxists.
And many of them are of a communist, radical communist mindset of the, the extreme Leninist variety.
And they would like to purge their political opposition.
And I mean, Chris Wallace from Fox, he's talking, comparing Biden's speech to JFK's inaugural speech.
Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.
I mean, he's comparing this corrupt old maniac wearing a mask Joe Biden with JFK.
You got to be kidding me.
But they're doing it.
This shows you how out of touch the media are with their hyperbole, with their hysterics.
It's crazy.
Maybe Trump drove them crazy.
It's possible.
Trump may have driven them around the bend.
And guess what?
They've gone around the bend and they're not coming back.
They're not going to get normal.
Okay.
They're going to move even more radically forward with their agenda.
And then they're talking about Donald Trump.
Biden's restored truth after Donald Trump told 33,000 lies.
Supposedly they kept track of all the lies.
You know, the biggest lie of them all, of course, they've been pushing for five years.
And that's that Russia that Putin put Trump in the White House.
Not a word about that.
They looked at the events in D.C.
as their sort of chance to, you know, pave over their five years of Russiagating, which has real-world consequences in terms of policy, in terms of global stability, and also in terms of the amount of time, energy, and resources wasted by the U.S.
security state to supposedly counter a Russian threat that's not there.
Okay, that's what their Those lies, the official conspiracy theory of Russiagate has done and will continue to do.
They'll still be using that.
These people are so used to trafficking in lies that they, honestly, they've been doing it now for five years.
I'm sorry they're stuck in that mode.
They're not coming out.
It's going to be more hysterics and more lies comparing Biden to Lincoln.
You got to be kidding me.
And then talking about like it's a religious church service.
You heard that one commentator.
I think he's from MSNBC.
And you're even describing the shot of Biden and the Obamas and the Bushes.
They're literally calling it like Marvel superheroes.
It's like the Avengers.
So this is the infantilization of the American public in both sides, by the way.
Don't get me started on the QAnon crowd.
Don't get me started on that.
But on the left, equally infantilized in terms of superheroes.
Biden's a superhero.
If that's a superhero, gosh, the halls of justice are in deep trouble.
I'm telling you right now.
And then at the end, Jake Tapper from CNN, who is the whole crew at CNN, are really an abomination to journalism.
Don Lemon's involved in a legal case, by the way.
That's interesting.
It's to do with a sexual assault.
So again, You have some of the worst deviants working for CNN.
Jake Tapper saying that they had to sanitize the White House because Donald Trump and his family didn't take COVID seriously.
So I can imagine that crews of people, literally there are people with hazmat suits going through the White House, spraying everything down.
This is the level of lunacy.
Look at the inauguration.
I mean, listen, so here's a good example.
Joe Biden, his first executive orders, mandatory masks on federal property, including transport hubs.
Okay.
And social distancing as well.
So he is determined to keep this pandemic going.
So he'll go as far as he can.
Whether it's a real pandemic or not, whether it's in the building or not, it doesn't matter.
This is about power.
They're clear.
Listen to the words they say.
So here's Joe Biden.
This is Joe Biden talking about COVID.
I think this was like yesterday or the day before.
But listen to this.
This is what he said.
This is amazing.
If we fail to act, there will be a wave of evictions and foreclosures in the coming months as this pandemic rages on, because there's nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.
Wait, wait a minute.
So there's nothing we can do.
So to now it's, we can't do anything.
The pandemic is raging.
Where is it raging, Joe?
Where's the pandemic raging?
It's not raging.
So again, more projection, literally imaginary threats.
That's what's going to run US policy, whether it's an imaginary climate threat, or it's an imaginary COVID threat.
Or it's imaginary Russian threat, or an imaginary, which if they push it hard enough it might become real, a domestic terror threat.
They're talking about a domestic 9-11.
So just pure hyperbole.
Nobody's dialing it down saying, whoa, wait a minute, let's just take a look at all of these things.
Where is the immediate threat in any of this?
No, because it doesn't suit the lust for power and total domination.
You need crises.
And they're lining up three, four, five crises right now.
This is what you're going to see in the coming years with this crew in power.
Okay.
And so that was Biden.
But a couple of days before, He said that we can change the course of the pandemic.
So yesterday he's saying, we can't change the course.
We're locked into this dark winter.
But three days before he's saying, if you wear a mask, we can change the course of the pandemic.
Here's, here's Biden from three days ago.
Listen to this clip.
One of our 100 day challenges is asking the American people to mask up for the first hundred days, the next 99 days.
The masks have become a partisan issue, unfortunately.
But it's a patriotic act.
But for a few months to wear a mask, no vaccines, the fact is that they're the single best thing we can do.
They're even more important than the vaccines because they take time to work.
And if we do this as Americans, the experts say, by wearing a mask from now until April, we'd save more than 50,000 lives going forward.
50,000 lives.
So I'm asking every American to mask up for the next hundred days.
And before that, he made a statement as president elect back in December, that in the next month, if we don't wear a mask, there's going to be 250,000 more deaths in America from COVID.
He said that around December 1st.
That's a public statement.
He's basically saying, if we don't wear a mask now, the dead bodies are going to pile up.
Okay.
I don't want to get into how they attribute COVID deaths and how dodgy that whole administrative process has become because of the CDC, the same in the UK and other countries as well, and the fraud, which is PCR testing.
Okay.
I don't want to get into the details of that.
We've discussed that in the past.
We might discuss it.
In the future.
So there's there's Joe saying wear a mask again, waving his mask.
So this guy is so out of it.
And he's gonna get worse by the day.
Of course, at his age, and I'm not being ageist here, but let's just be realistic.
Your faculties are not going to improve with time.
Uh, they're probably going to get worse.
So we ran a poll on Twitter saying, how long will Joe Biden be before?
How long will he be in the white house before they shuffle him out for health reasons or some other reason could end up being a scandal, by the way, with his track record, uh, with, uh, uh, well, with, uh, sexual scandals, uh, certainly Joe Biden's, uh, in, in a dangerous category with Bill Clinton there.
If you've seen the testimony of Tara Reid for instance, which the media completely buried He'll will he be gone in what will it be 12 months 18 months two years or four years, and I think 78% Was a blowout basically said he'll be out within 12 months That's what people believe People are paying attention anyway, so so you can see how mendacious the agenda is the Democrats Unfortunately, they it's it's it's quite amazing that they want to push the pandemic back on the American people.
This is going on other countries.
And They would even go so far.
This is how serious this is.
They will go so far.
Clearly, there is no pandemic to speak of right now.
It's being propped up by governments and by the media and by the pharmaceutical lobby.
The same usual suspects.
But the Democrats denied their own support base.
A proper inauguration for their president, supposedly.
And they just have a few people socially distanced.
It's just ridiculous.
We're all wearing masks.
They can't even face the American people with their face.
Face the world.
The U.S.
leadership wearing masks like a bunch of pirates.
There's something seriously wrong with this.
And you don't have the mainstream media calling it out.
The reporters are outdoors wearing masks on camera.
It's ridiculous.
This is beyond a joke.
Ladies and gentlemen, but we still I mean, they're quite happy to let everybody go out and riot.
That was okay in the summer.
Yeah, the arson fest still going on in Portland and Seattle right now as we speak.
So they but they won't even show their faces.
They're hiding behind their masks.
And what Joe Biden's trying to do is to incorporate the mask into the ever-growing list of sacraments, virtue signaling rituals.
You know what that tick box looks like.
But what this really is, it's turning it into or it's formalizing what is really a fetish and trying to make this a woke Trying to include the mask into the list of woke things that you need to do to be considered a good person in the eyes of the party.
This is getting more Soviet by the minute.
Okay?
And now what Joe's trying to do is calling it a patriotic act.
So he's trying to make it patriotic.
That is quite frankly ridiculous.
This is getting to level Caligula levels of farce right now.
We are literally in that zone right now.
We are in the Caligula, I'm marrying my horse zone right now.
It's a little more complex, it's a little more technocratic, but essentially it's that level.
This is late stage empire.
This is classic late stage empire.
And the level of incompetence Up at the federal level is something incredible.
What matters is about being in power as opposed to actually serving the interests of the people.
And COVID has unfortunately provided the federal government and a large portion of Trump's government basically benefited from this as well of being in power and keeping power and consolidating power and exercising power.
And this is the same in every other country.
And the guiding light, of course, was the Chinese government.
They showed everybody how it was done from day one with their medieval lockdown.
With all the fake videos of people dropping dead in the streets that were littering our social media feeds during January and February.
You remember them.
Some of us remember them.
Oh yes, we documented all of those.
Fake.
All of them.
Terrorize the West.
So when COVID supposedly made landfall in Italy and Spain, our media, our mainstream media got onto the propaganda bandwagon so fast.
And of course, politicians ran with the fear, the fear porn.
And it was a conveyor belt of hysteria.
And now we're still in it.
Meanwhile, Wuhan's out of it.
The Chinese are basically out of it, and they're still arresting people for drinking cups of coffee in the UK.
And who knows what they're doing in New York?
Who knows?
So, but these people have definitely a false sense of their own competence, and a false sense of their own achievement, and they're lauded by the media, which I'm calling the new... the permanent state has become And also Congress and Senate as well has become a Politburo.
And they seem to be above everything.
And this is full of careerists.
And the danger is that some of these ideologies that they're pushing are, and they're saying you're not allowed to debate this, the science is settled.
The science is settled on climate, the science is settled on COVID.
That's not science.
The science is settled on foreign policy.
We're a democratic country and we need to spread democratic values.
And they're going to be invading, bombing, and overthrowing a whole list of governments.
And you'll see terrorist bombs going off left, right, and center now.
The CIA, they've basically taken the bridle off the CIA.
Because this is the administration that will do proxy wars and armed jihadists, which the Obama administration did.
And arm actual neo-Nazis, which the Obama administration did in the Ukraine.
And back actual street neo-Nazis.
Arm them in the Ukraine.
That happened.
That was the Obama-Biden administration that did that.
And Joe himself ran point.
So they don't care about democracy.
What they care about is their globalist agenda.
And so what happens is these ideas, like the responsibility to protect, or now global public health, these become inbred ideas.
This is what happens in late stage empire.
This is what happens when you have a Sovietization of ideas and politics.
The ideas become inbred.
So it doesn't matter whether they make sense or not.
It doesn't matter whether they reflect reality.
What matters is that it's coming from a place of power.
And anybody that is against it or that questions it is immediately ridiculed, marginalized, attacked, deplatformed.
And now they're calling for the deprogramming.
The deprogramming of Trump supporters.
This is being talked about.
Do you have any idea how dangerous this rhetoric is, which is really moving fast right now?
Throughout all of these various media outlets, I can name quite a few people who have been talking about this.
Now, there are some responsible people in U.S.
politics.
Here's Tulsi Gabbard.
Listen to this.
She's talking to Brian Kilmeade, I believe, on Fox Business about the new domestic terror legislation that the Democrats are wanting to ram through, supposedly in the wake of this great, what they're calling, insurrection.
Which happened on January 6th.
They're calling it sedition, insurrection, etc.
Comparing them to Al Qaeda, etc.
Roll this and listen to what Tulsi's saying here.
This is an important conversation and we'll add to this after we hear what she says.
Listen to this clip.
Former Congresswoman Kelsey Gabbard from Hawaii, Democrat, joins us now.
Congresswoman, great to see you.
I know you've just been out of the job for a week or two.
Are you surprised they're pushing forward with this extra surveillance on would-be domestic terror?
It's so dangerous.
You know, as you guys have been talking about, this is an issue that all Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians should be extremely concerned about.
Especially because we don't have to guess about where this goes or how this ends when you have people like former CIA Director John Brennan openly talking about how he's spoken with or heard from appointees and nominees in the Biden administration who are already starting to look across our country Uh, for these types of movements, similar to the insurgencies they've seen overseas, that in his words, he says, make up this unholy alliance of religious extremists, uh, racists, bigots, uh, he lists a few others, and adds at the end, even libertarians.
So, when you look at their process and they start looking at, okay, what characteristics are we looking for as we're building this profile of a potential extremist, what are we talking about?
A religious extremist.
Are we talking about Christians?
Evangelical Christians?
What is a religious extremist?
Is it somebody who's pro-life?
I mean, where do you take this?
You start looking at, okay, well, obviously you have to be a white person, obviously.
Likely male libertarians.
Well, if anybody who loves freedom, liberty, maybe has an American flag outside their house, or people who, you know, attended a Trump rally.
Once you start walking this down the path, you see where it leads to a very dangerous undermining of our civil liberties, our freedoms in our Constitution, and a targeting of almost half of the country.
UN Omar says this, we already have laws in the books, sorry, but you are just going to have to learn to apply them.
The other thing I thought was interesting, Congresswoman, I don't see any FBI demanding more tools.
They feel they got the tools.
Congressional leaders or members who feel as though they're so freaked out by Trump supporters, they still can't understand why anyone would support him, they want to get to the bottom of it.
And do you think the whole deprogramming of Trump supporters, this new buzzword among detractors and Democrats, has anything to do with this?
Yeah, I think it does, very directly.
I think just on the FBI front, I read a great op-ed this morning from a former FBI agent who made a very strong case for why this new domestic terror law introduced by Adam Schiff is wrong and is directly going to undermine our constitutional rights and freedoms.
This whole effort, whether you're talking about this bill or people saying that we have to deprogram these Trump cultists and people who voted for Trump because they've been radicalized, all of this just goes to further tear our country apart.
And it moves towards the thing Joe Biden said in his inauguration speech that he shouldn't happen, which is a dehumanization of your opponent.
And that's where his voice is so necessary right now.
He is the president of this country.
He delivered this speech.
His voice, himself, speaking to the American people.
He needs to denounce people like John Brennan and their statements, bills like the one Adam Schiff put forward, and truly speak to the American people about how we must come together around, you know, the Constitution, around our Bill of Rights, around these rights that have been endowed to us by our Creator.
If he had your leadership ability, he would do it.
Maybe he still will.
That's why she ran for president.
Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, thanks so much.
So, right there.
Right there.
I disagree with Tulsi Gabbard on a lot of domestic policies.
But on issues of liberty and of constitutional issues, he's one of the only Democrats that recognizes the U.S.
Constitution in a way that respects the Bill of Rights, in my opinion.
That is worrying, to say the least.
You know, they're freaked out, supposedly, and this is part of it.
They're freaked out, alright.
The Democrats, the power structure, the permanent state, they are freaked out.
They just had somebody come in, into the White House, who wasn't a career politician, busted through the establishment, managed to get in, and Said he's going to drain the swamp, called it a swamp.
No one's done that before.
So whatever you think or agree or disagree with Donald Trump, he was mercurial and in that sense, groundbreaking.
And he was a populist and that's what the establishment fears.
That's what permanent Washington, that's what the transnational corporate set, the Davos set, the great resetters, Silicon Valley, they're scared of real populism and they will crush it.
They'll try to crush it with all of their abilities that they can, if it rears its head.
On the right and the left.
Okay, and I'll argue that Donald Trump is, in that sense, the fact that he is championing the working class.
The flip, the Republican Party is more of a working class party now than the Democrats.
The Democrats are plutocrats representing coastal elites, using minorities to To harvest vote numbers, but doing nothing for them ever, really.
And God knows how long, how many decades, just patronizing minority communities whenever there's an election coming, ramping up the race-baiting rhetoric because they think they can cultivate votes.
Well, it backfired on them in this election.
Latinos, Hispanics, blacks migrated to Trump.
That's a fact.
There's a reason for that.
People don't want to feel miserable about themselves and their country.
They want a positive message.
They want a compelling future.
Donald Trump was articulating that, was offering that.
The Democrats have offered a dark winter.
And so this is what happens when you vote for the lesser of two evils.
I don't want to get into the legitimacy of the election.
We've talked about that in depth before.
There was election fraud, there was voter fraud, and the fact that it was thrown out of various courts doesn't matter, it doesn't erase the fact that there was, and a lot of that evidence will come to light eventually.
And anybody will be attacked for even bringing the subject up.
That's how vicious these Media Leninists are okay. They're brutal and they're
vicious and they want a full political purge. They're freaked out because
when you the the main point of this protest at the Capitol on January 6th and all the nut cases
as well, whatever that is a motley crew of of agent provocateurs a few there was a few QA nons
I mean, a relatively a handful of people.
They're wanting to hang half the country based on the actions.
The bizarre actions, in some cases, of literally a handful of people who included some provocateurs and probably likely a few FBI informants mixed in to that small group of people.
Guaranteed.
100%.
John Sullivan would be a likely candidate.
In that department, the BLM activist who was wearing his Trump outfit, okay, leading the charge.
That doesn't get talked about much in the media, does it?
So, but what does that say?
That people would want to go into the Capitol building and do the things that they did, live stream from Nancy Pelosi's office, etc.
They don't respect the government.
They stepped over that line, some of these people, because they don't respect the power of the government.
The people recognize, working class people recognize, that it's a farce.
That democracy is a farce.
That you have elites running.
You have Silicon Valley brutally censoring people in the run-up to the election and then centering them after if they dare to question the election results.
That is an oligarchy.
That is a plutocracy.
There's no question about it.
What part of that do you not understand if you don't agree with what I've just said?
That's exactly what that is.
That merger of state and corporate interests Is also classic fascism.
They're projecting all of these things on Trump.
He's the next Hitler.
He's a fascist.
They don't mean anything.
And they're now projecting on his supporters.
They're insurrectionists.
They're seditionists.
It was a coup rendering all these terms meaningless because of their hyperbolic hysterical depiction.
Of something that was really kind of a, in a way, a kind of motley, bizarre incident and how it rolled out.
And by the way, the DC Capitol Police stood down.
There's evidence of that.
So there was coordination to allow that crowd, as we said in previous shows, to get close to the Capitol, which should have never happened in the first place.
So someone benefited from this.
And we explained that in previous shows.
But the people, the large people, they don't respect the government.
They don't respect the authority of the government.
They think the media is lying to them and they're correct.
The media has been lying rabidly, especially the last five years.
How many fake Trump scandals were leaked to the media that were Russian plots that turned out to be, all of them, fictional, all of them.
And they're saying, why don't the people respect the press?
Why is Donald Trump saying that people saying that the press is the enemy of the people?
It's because of their lies.
It's because of their fabrications.
It's because of their fake news.
It's because of their propaganda.
And working class people in America recognize that.
And they're trying to now brand them again, increase the hyperbole to terrorism now.
Ridiculous.
Totally out of control.
And it's dangerous.
We can't you can't just just because now they're pushing this in terms they want they want a bit they want law.
They want to give the federal government carte blanche power to go surveilling and arresting and questioning people because of their political beliefs.
Because they're conservative, because they're a libertarian.
There's nothing less authoritarian than a libertarian.
Let me tell you that right now.
And so they're managing to turn things upside down to say that black is white, that white is black.
That day is night.
You're looking at a zebra with stripes and they're saying, no, no, he's got spots.
This is this is a combination of Orwellian and Soviet mentality in terms of political and social engineering.
That's what you're looking at right now, right in front of your eyes.
It's happening in real time.
So in just a couple of weeks, we've gone from deplatforming to deprogramming.
And they don't get it.
Instead, you should step back and say, why are these people so upset?
Well, they're upset because if they don't have trust in the basic mechanism of democracy, which is the election, And seeing that they're wanting to bury any challenges, censor anybody asking questions, discredit, attack anybody who's wanting to audit or any accountability, then you've got a critical situation at that point.
If you crush those people who are asking questions, who are wanting legal due process, if you crush them, You silence them, you de-platform them, and you say that you're going to de-program them.
You're disenfranchising those people, eventually.
That's what you want.
You don't want them to vote.
Or you want them to vote for your party.
What are they going to do to 80 million Americans?
Are they going to put them all in re-education camps?
Or are they going to convince them all to vote Democrat?
Or are they going to try to intimidate them, more likely, not to vote in the next election?
Or to somehow defranchise, disenfranchise them or whatever.
That's what's going on.
This is a political purge.
This is a purge.
It's power, it's power to wanting to purge the opposition.
And so just extremist rhetoric totally over the top, like out of control.
So you have the deplatforming, then you have the The racial hysteria for the last four years, scapegoating Trump, scapegoating the Russians, and calling everybody a white nationalist, a racist, a white supremacist, just kind of bandying this around casually.
Talk about a broad brush.
And then, you know, now wanting to force diversity issues.
Let me tell you about diversity training and race baiting.
America went through a lot to try to become a colorblind nation and was making great progress until recently.
And this started under the Obama administration.
And of course, it's political.
Obama also feared his base in terms of the Al Sharptons of the world.
If you don't make race at the top of everything, Then you know you could potentially have the quote black community You know becoming skeptical or maybe turning against the White House Obama went all out in total Chicago community organizing style and made politicized the Department of Justice and the media went with it and so this this began the cycle that we're currently in and
So now it's about it used to used to be an MLK dominated narrative where people would be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin.
And it's been flipped now.
Now it's all about the color of your skin and your gender.
And next it'll be about your political beliefs.
And that's, that's the Bolshevik phase right there.
So this is just toxic diversity training.
Is really about heightening paranoia, injecting distrust.
It's about the psychological reframing, which has which Biden has mentioned, that that's, you know, racial justice and reparations and etc.
His his speech was a buffet of all these tropes and soundbites.
And it's been shown that this aggressive diversity agenda increases racial division.
This has been shown time and time again in companies, in institutions, it's toxic.
What is it?
It's political, it's about dividing people, it's about breaking down society,
breaking down institutions.
And so, what the Democrats, or whoever the cultural leaders there,
within the central party apparatus, they wanna transform America away
from a merit-based culture and system, and into something that's where awards
are strictly given along race, gender lines, and so conformity, and almost kind of a religious
veneration of what the party's values are.
How dangerous is it?
Incredibly dangerous.
And where's this heading in terms of economics?
One of the other executive orders Biden did basically killed the Keystone X pipeline.
And so what's going to happen immediately?
You're going to see potentially gas prices go up in a few months.
What happens when gas prices go up?
Inflation goes up because the goods and services are very much in many cases tied to the cost of fuel.
So we'll see this government is pledged to raise taxes to somehow help cover the spending spree, which has happened because of COVID.
So taxes up, inflation up, gas prices up, and then all the investment will be Transferring into the green bubble.
So green stocks will be good.
And interest rates might go up in terms of housing loans.
They're not going to do that forever.
So you're going to see a contraction in the economy.
And I don't think the Democrats have always shown a disdain for economics.
Economic theory, it's their policies have always been borrow and spend, borrow and spend.
So COVID suits, the COVID crisis suits the Democrats right down to the ground.
Who's going to benefit?
The Tom Steyers of the world, the Mark Zuckerbergs of the world, the Bezos economy.
That's going to do great.
All these green tech companies, they'll get tons of federal money.
They won't produce anything that's going to make any difference in terms of the temperature of the earth.
Pumping everything into solar and wind.
That's where all the money's going to go.
The returns will be there for the people who've got billions to be early investors in those companies.
They'll be creaming it.
So they're rapid capitalists, but it's crony capitalism.
And also then there's the immigration issue.
Biden says he wants to open the southern border effectively and let it let in as many people it seems as possible to try to turn Texas and other states into Democratic strongholds, wanting to add Washington DC as a state to gain a permanent majority in the Senate, Puerto Rico, And the filibuster, which will basically render the Senate basically impotent in terms of any check or balance on the House, House of Representatives.
I mean, I could just go on and on, add maybe another five or six Supreme Court justices, all liberal, non-originalists who, you know, Ruth Bader Ginsburg clones, basically.
So that will be the end of the U.S.
Constitution as As it's, well, it'll just be a relativist document at that point.
And so this is wanting to really transform the face of the country, the fabric of the country.
And yeah, we'll see.
We'll see how your 401ks are doing at that point.
They might not be riding as high as they are right now.
So that's something for people to consider.
And then a constant series of lockdowns, no lockdowns, variants, you know, using constantly using COVID to destroy Main Street, to destroy the high street.
This seems to be the definitely the agenda.
Build Back Better, Biden's slogan he's borrowed from Klaus Schwab.
Build Back Better is about building back for some people, and the rest of the people forget it.
And if you want a good look at a real piece of work, it's by Graham Wood at the Atlantic Magazine, what to do with Trumpists.
And he's saying a proper response to these extremists isn't counter-terrorism, it's mental hygiene.
This is one of the most disgusting pieces of so-called journalism that we have seen to date.
And they're literally comparing Trump supporters to Al-Qaeda members.
And you have all these CNN, former DHS official Juliette Kayyem saying that we should treat the MAGA as a terrorist movement and Trump as it's Osama bin Laden.
Okay.
This is this is mainstream talk.
This is insane.
They've these people are the rhetoric is dangerous.
And What will happen if you keep marginalizing, you keep disenfranchising, you create, you'll create an extremist.
You'll create an extremist faction, and you'll create that monster, which doesn't exist right now.
But if they keep going, and I think that's what they want.
They want to create that monster.
And then the federal government can come down and say, ha, look, we told you.
After they harass in prison and Deplatform and lock up and wage political, use the judiciary as a political weapon.
You do that enough, you do that enough, you'll get a revolt.
And then the press will coalesce around the federal government and say, look, these redneck white nationalists, who knows what they'll be calling them.
Could just be honest cattle farmers like the Bundys.
Remember what they did to the Bundys back in 2014?
How they demonized them.
While they sent in basically a federal army in to impound their cattle.
At gunpoint.
Okay?
That was under the Obama administration.
All rubber stamped by their politicized Department of Justice at the time.
Using federal agents like the Bureau of Land Management.
Militarizing them.
That happened.
None of that happened under Trump.
Did you notice?
We didn't see any of that under Trump.
There's a lot of things we didn't see under Trump, including a mass shooting every five minutes.
So look out.
This is what's coming down the pipeline, ladies and gentlemen.
And I'm telling you right now, these people are as crazy as ever.
And they smell the power.
They want a one party state.
They're going to do everything possible to get it.
And the only thing that's going to derail that agenda is if people just start getting a lot smarter.
And we'll break in a second.
The last thing I'll say is to the QAnon crowd.
If you still believe in QAnon, and you're still listening to some of these nutjobs on YouTube, and you're indulging in this childish fantasy, a LARP, live action role player.
We talked about this years ago with QAnon.
It's been a couple years now.
It's a cult.
It is like a cult.
But it's kind of a ridiculous cult.
I mean, if you're in a real cult, I mean, if you're in the Branch Davidians, or the Rajneesh, the Bhagwan, or the, you know, the family of the children of God, I mean, at least, at least if you belong to a real cult, down in Central America or whatever, at least, You get the free drugs and the free sex and whatnot.
When you belong to QAnon, you get nothing.
All you get is little endorphin rushes off your smartphone.
It's ridiculous.
So if you want to join a cult, go join a real cult somewhere.
Have some fun.
Or whatever.
Drink the Kool-Aid.
Like at Jonestown.
But, I mean, it's just ridiculous how many people fell for this over the years.
And you have been completely Completely emasculated by this PSYOP.
And now we're starting to see some people who've been kind of giving it sakur over the years and the alternative community are now sort of now admitting that, oh, it's fake.
It's a PSYOP.
But they all pretty much kept their mouth shut about it for the longest time.
But we didn't.
We told you about this years ago.
Years ago.
Look, we're going to take a short break and connect to a roving correspondent for Culture and Sport, Basil Valentine.
I'm your host Patrick Henningsen.
This is the Sunday Wire.
Boy, boy are we in for it.
We're in for a wild ride in 2021.
We'll be right back after this break.
Thanks for watching.
There's a black hat car in a high tree top.
There's a flagpole rack and the wind won't stop I have stood here before inside the pouring rain
With the world turning circles running round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this way
But it's my destiny to be the king of pain If there's one thing I've learned about experts
They're experts on fuck all If there's a rule, you can bend it.
If there's a law, it can be broken.
And from now on, I'm breaking all the rules.
Because desperate men, do desperate deeds.
Music.
Alright, welcome back.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the final segment of Overdrive.
I'm your host Patrick Henningsen.
This is the Sunday Wire radio program brought to you here on the Ultimate Current Radio Network.
And we'll be speaking just in a moment to our roving correspondent for Culture and Sport, Mr. Basil Valentine, in just a second.
But before we talk to Basil, I just want to give a big shout out to some very special
people, supporters of 21st Century Wire, supporters of this show.
As you may know, as we've said in previous shows, and if you follow us at the website
21stCenturyWire.com, you'll see we've been running a winter fundraising drive now for
us.
I think we launched it on Thanksgiving weekend at the end of November.
And so we're almost two months completed now, and we'll continue this into February.
And we've had a lot of people come and really step up to try to make this happen.
So I'm going to give a shout out to some of our people who've donated just in the past
week.
And a big shout out to Anne M., and also Bozzo B., Danny H.
you.
Lisa J. Luke C. Breath of Life.
And also Ronald VH, Jolene K, Natalie N, and a couple of new members to 21Wired.tv, Chris H, Rich A, and Teresa M. That's another way you can support us, aside from donating, is subscribe to 21Wired.tv.
That's our special members subscription, premium subscription, and some people
have really jumped in a lot in the last few weeks.
And so we really appreciate your support making this winter fundraising drive happen.
We're getting close to our goal.
I've said we're gonna launch that thermometer to show our progress.
I've been meaning to do that for weeks, but we've just been inundated with work
and stuff to do in the background, stuff we're working on.
We're gonna get back on track with the live 21 Wire live this week as well.
We've got a couple of shows lined up to make up for our last week, which we missed.
So we're looking forward to that.
So, you know, thank you everybody for for supporting us.
This is an independent media platform.
This is basically people-powered.
You're supporting this show, The Sunday Wire, 21 Wire Live, 21stCenturyWire.com are reporting and we'll have a new feature from Brian Berletek probably in the next couple of days on Biden, where the Biden administration is taking the US in terms of foreign policy.
and Brian's a fantastic analyst, formerly under the pen name of Tony Cartolucci, a legend
in the blogosphere, so he'll be doing another exclusive for us this week, so we're looking
forward to that.
But all of these things, of course, are really because of you, because of your support.
So if you want to support us and you want to keep us going, this is an important fundraising
This is what basically we use to fund the coming year in 2021.
So our winter fundraising drive is our main fundraiser.
And so we've got a couple of, hopefully we can shoehorn in some bigger projects from what we can do during this fundraising period.
So again, get on board.
if you're listening to the show on the podcasting format on iTunes or any of the other platforms,
you wanna support us and help us get to the next level.
We're getting there and because of your support, now is the time, jump on board.
We'll be running this also through at least the beginning of February.
So we will need your support going forward.
So thank you very much, everybody.
Now our roving correspondent for Culture and Sport, his name is Mr. Basil Valentine
and his blog is Basil's View from the Coast up at 21stcenturywire.com
and also hello to everybody in the chat room at the Sunday Wire show page at 21stcenturywire.com.
Hope you're all doing well.
Sorry, I haven't had time to get in there and drop any comments, but I see it's quite active
and there's some interesting stuff going on in our chat.
Some great links, by the way.
Some people are dropping some really good research links and stuff that pertains to what we're talking about
during the show and also hello to everybody, the ACR chat room is another hub of activity there
at alternatecurrentradio.com.
Another great sort of group of people on ACR's chat room there, but hello, Basil.
Great to hear from you again this week.
Hope you're doing well.
I Good evening, Patrick.
Good to be with you.
Great to be with you, too.
So I don't know if you're listening to the last segment, but things, in my view, are getting quite, we're getting into zero hour right now in terms of politics.
I don't know what your feelings are, but what are your thoughts this week, Basil?
Well, we seem to be trapped in Britain, in an eternal world of grey with this Lockdown now seemingly almost interminable.
The summer is being cancelled already.
Glastonbury Festival was cancelled just last week for the second year running, which has a huge impact on all sorts of local businesses, as well as letting down 200,000 festival goers.
One by one, I fear, all the other summer events will be cancelled, probably, you know, largely in chronological order.
I think we can say goodbye to big outdoor events in May and June for starters.
Perhaps things will be different by July.
We have nothing but slate grey skies howling winds and driving rain and on top of it all we've got Brexit which is causing all kinds of problems to all sorts of businesses up and down the UK.
I mean We hope that these are only temporary teething troubles, but whether it's something you've bought from a website in the European Union that you're now being charged swinging amounts of tax on, I've heard anecdotal stories of that, to fish rotting at dock sides, visas needed for travel to the European Union.
Basically, to paraphrase Harold Macmillan, You've never had it so bad.
Yeah, I thought it was an oven ready deal, Basil.
That's what the board kept saying.
It's an oven ready deal.
So it's like a cheap TV dinner then.
Yeah, exactly.
That's exactly what I was going to say.
Most oven ready things turn out to be most unsatisfying.
So, you know, the entirety of humanity is being challenged at the moment.
But it seems the people of Britain are being particularly challenged in multifarious ways with one of the highest infection rates in the world and of course now what some people would be considered to be a huge own goal in the shape of Brexit.
And what about the, have you looked at the Irish situation?
I mean we warned that, you know, Really, Brexit potentially could push Ireland closer to reunification by nature of the whole problem with the border and the Good Friday Agreement, etc.
What are your thoughts on that situation?
That would be interesting.
Well politicians are starting to sort of say the unsayable that you know a United Ireland is inevitable one way or another at some point.
Not least because of the demographics and the faster population growth amongst the Catholic slash nationalist slash Republican population as opposed to the Unionist population.
So I think it's it is only a matter of time before Ireland sort of stumbles towards unity and it seems as if a lot of the particularly harsh enmity that existed between the two communities in Northern Ireland has dissipated.
We had now had the Northern Ireland Agreement in place for, you know, 20 years plus or whatever.
The troubles are very largely, if not entirely, over.
So I think the idea of a united Ireland To unionists is not quite as unpalatable as it was.
However, that is a rare case of enmity between two warring factions being dissipated because in the United States it seems the enmity between the warring factions of Democrats and Republicans only ever gets increasingly exacerbated.
It is, yeah.
The direction of travel on that is not going anywhere good as far as I can see.
No, I believe in the previous segment you touched upon the whole new domestic terrorism situation which could identify libertarians as well as any kind of American nationalists as somehow a potential, in inverted commas, domestic terrorist.
In other words, half the American population, if not more, would be classified as potential domestic terrorists.
Yeah, that's, that's ridiculous on his face.
But this is what's being pushed.
And you know, if this gets traction in terms of federal statutes and things like that, it's really going to give the FBI a green light.
to be doing some of the worst it's you know it brings out the worst in the FBI the FBI is is easily the most corrupt borderline criminal a federal agency in the history of the US okay and it's really is that there's huge problems with the FBI that stem from the days of J Edgar Hoover and if you look at all of the so-called domestic Terror or domestic extremist incidents a very disturbingly high number of them.
I'm talking about 90% Probably if you really go in and audit it if you look at the work of treasure Trevor Aronson in terms of all the fake Islamist terror plots that were cooked up by FBI informants and then you look at the Pat Con and The FBI and Elohim City, Timothy McVeigh, their involvement with their informants in the Huttari militia, the Hal Turners of the world.
I mean, it's endless.
The PatCon Patriot Conspiracy Project.
COINTELPRO, basically.
You look at all this, and you think, look at that.
That's real.
The FBI are right in there with every single group.
And you ramp that up.
Tenfold.
That's what you're looking at here.
And by the way, if the media go, you know, they freak out when they talk of armed militias.
The biggest armed militia activity in 2020 was not on the right or from conservative militias.
Armed Antifa took over six blocks of Seattle.
The only reason they got away with it is because the mayor and the police chief, who were Democrats, who were rabid leftists, okay, they basically anointed it.
They allowed the takeover of a portion of the biggest city in the Pacific Northwest by armed, radical, Antifa, leftist, BLM, Black Lives Matter activists, okay, called it an autonomous zone.
I mean, the second thing I'll say, and I'll pass it back to you Basil, the biggest armed militia formation in 2020 was the NFAC, I'll use the term because this is their name, the No Fucking Around Coalition, led by Grandmaster Jay.
It's an armed black African-American militia, a separatist movement.
They went to Louisville with, you know, AK-47s, sniper rifles and body armor and marched through the streets of Louisville during one of the Breonna Taylor protests.
That actually happened in July of 300.
Okay, in public, and then saying they want to take territory for a black homeland, either from Georgia or Mississippi.
They want land, basically.
And they're openly doing this, and it didn't even cause a blip on the media's radar screen.
So what does that tell you?
This whole thing is about politics.
It's not about, it's not about They don't care about domestic terror.
Real terrorists could pop up and they don't care.
What they care about is whether they can leverage something for either increasing federal power or political power.
That's where we're at right now.
Back to you.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
You're absolutely right.
There's an enormous amount of the creation of antagonism And the ramping up of tension for its own sake, I'm given to believe, you know, that, uh, you know, the two factions, red versus blue green, if you like, are still in fact on unseen levels controlled by the same hidden hand as we have long since suspected.
But that hidden hand is currently looking to Further division amongst the American people, really.
It wants as much hatred, for want of a better word, as possible.
It wants people pitted against each other, and it wants people sort of drawn into positions that they otherwise wouldn't hold.
You have, you know, otherwise sort of, inverted commas, reasonable, normal people cheering the death of That woman that was shot at Capitol Hill, you know, we have an intensity of hatred and enmity between the two sides that we haven't seen before.
You know, with people openly threatening to kill each other, imprison each other, ban each other, whatever.
And at the moment, the one side is in the ascendancy.
That may or may not last.
But it's the degree of vitriol with which political causes are being pursued at the moment that is unique, certainly in my lifetime.
I agree, and alarm bells should be going off.
And some people don't mind as long as their, you know, their party is being catered to.
We played some of the comments by CNN and whatnot earlier in the first hour, and it's just, it's vitriol, it's hate, and it's propaganda.
And if you try to demonize large sections of the population, and then you come in with policy that actually marginalizes them, that criminalizes their Their political affiliation, in many cases.
And you take the checks and balances away from the government in terms of how they can, you know, pursue people, contravene civil liberties and so forth.
Then, you're, if you do, and you silence them, and you de-platform, and you call them names and accuse them of being things they're not, and you try to get them thrown out of their place of work, trying to get companies shut down, like Parler, You keep doing this, there's not much that those people can do.
At some point, they're going to fight.
They're going to fight.
That's the only reaction that's left at the end of the day.
And so this is incredibly dangerous, what's being attempted.
This attempt to construct a one-party state and have a uniform of political thought and a uniform of ideological beliefs.
And a uniform of, you have to, you have to bow down and worship the narrative, or pay homage to whatever the narrative is.
And if you don't, then you're a bad person.
This is so Soviet, Basil.
This is so Soviet.
Absolutely.
I mean, we've got tremendous sort of double standards as well being Applied to all sorts of questions, but unfortunately none more so than the very thorny subject of race.
You refer to that No Fucking Around group, who are quite legitimately described as black nationalists, right?
Yeah.
And advocating for a black national homeland.
Which one can argue is a perfectly legitimate, fair enough position in a democratic society.
There's no reason why they should be banned or outlawed.
I mean, the show of strength with all the weaponry, I remember seeing that online.
That certainly raises a few heckles, but you know, the gun laws in the States being what they are, I don't think that any laws were necessarily broken.
But anyway, if we just flip that, and if those were white people demanding a white homeland, marching around absolutely armed to the teeth, they would be condemned not as white nationalists, because according to them, as far as the mainstream media is concerned, there is no such thing as white nationalism.
There is only white supremacy.
Right.
You see what I mean?
And that is, white supremacy is the most odious thing on the planet, okay?
Must be completely stamped out, whatever, you know.
So in other words, any form of assertion of white identity politics is classed as divisive supremacism, the root of all our problems and evils.
Whereas on the other hand, any form of black identity politics, when stated openly in public, is welcomed as a perfectly valid show of uh you know racial identity and culture and unfortunately you know that's where we are Patrick and and trying to do anything to change that with the current media arrangements is going to be very difficult.
I'm not saying I'm a obviously I'm not saying I'm a white nationalist or white supremacist or anything else but when people's perspective is deliberately distorted like that then they become frustrated and angry.
Yeah, yeah.
But I think, I think things have gone to another level.
And I think, I'm looking at this next level, why things can't settle back to some sort of equilibrium, as they have done in the past.
You have swings of the pendulum.
So what's different today in 2021 that wasn't the same back in, let's say, 1972 or 1968 or 2008?
The differences and the thing that I'm looking at differences, what would interrupt the normal ebb and flow
of political checks and balances?
And to me, it's a consolidation of ownership in the media, and also a consolidation of monopolies in Silicon Valley, and all of those having more or less a uniform political thought set of Political values and affiliations mainly globalist Democrat Wokeism okay, and then and they're literally they've got everybody on to these platforms social media platforms now that they're managing and monopolizing the the privately owned public square and They're shutting them down and mainstream media is not reporting the news.
It's partisan and And then anyone who reports anything that goes against the ruling power structure is shut down.
We didn't have that before.
And that's the difference.
That's why this could go a lot further down the track than previous iterations where you have different powers in the ascendancy.
Now you have real totality potential for real totalitarianism on the next level, basically.
And it's a techno, it's a technocracy by nature.
That's what we're seeing.
This is what COVID portends.
This is why people need to really pay attention now.
Because there's major transformational shifts that are underway, and they're being engineered.
And we're seeing the really the rancid byproduct of this right now with this administration, in my opinion.
This will be one of the most fascistic Authoritarian, central government crazed, US administrations in history.
This will make, I mean people will be begging for Trump after four years of this crew, I'm telling you.
Well I hope you're wrong but I fear you may be right and yet at the same time when it comes to the traditional dinosaur media, trust has declined to an all-time low.
56% of Americans from Edelman's Annual Trust Barometer agree with the statement that journalists and reporters are purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations.
56%!
And 58% think most news organizations are more concerned with supporting an ideology or political position than with informing the public.
So that's nearly six out of ten.
So there is hope.
People are not as stupid as we think.
But I was listening to Robert Kennedy Jr.
the other day, and he was quoting, I think it was Goebbels from the end of the war, and saying how, he was asked, how did you manage to get such a highly educated informed population such as the German people, very cultured,
the 1920s and 30s you know we tend to forget this, the center of high art
and philosophy and all the rest of it. How did you manage to get them to go along
hook line and sinker with Nazism? And he's which his reply was very simple, keep
people in fear and they'll do absolutely anything. Yeah that's where we're at
isn't it? And that's where we're at yeah is is endless fear you know.
And as we've said before, people become sort of addicted to fear.
It becomes almost sort of exciting, you know.
Oh, what's the latest danger, you know?
They become angry with people who for philosophical, personal, spiritual reasons of their own, are able to bypass the fear.
Why aren't you worried?
Why aren't you afraid?
You should be afraid to go out in public without a mask, you know?
You should be afraid of the rise of extreme right Nazism, whatever it is you're supposed to be afraid of this week.
You should be afraid of ISIS terror or whatever.
And that's how they're managing to get away with it.
Certainly during this COVID crisis, which is a completely unique place in history in terms of the implementation of this fear-based narrative.
They're going to push this further now in the next couple of weeks.
They're pushing for the impeachment of Trump, supposedly.
I'll read Graham Wood's diabolical article here in The Atlantic.
He's saying, first, the Senate must convict Donald Trump.
I confess bewilderment that the Senate will have to deliberate at all.
He says inciting an insurrection that threatens to kidnap and possibly murder members of the Senate, including the Vice President of the United States.
I'll stop right there.
This talking point.
That there was some of the MAGA supporters wanting to kidnap and murder the vice president was a fake talking point that was pushed out through the mainstream media and was later retracted.
And here we have a couple of days later, it's being reinserted by a mainstream media.
So he either doesn't know that they've walked it back or he's just using it anyway for rhetoric.
These people, these journalists don't care.
And they're on about the internet needs to be censored because of independent media bloggers who are lying and not telling the truth.
These people have the biggest platforms in the world and they're pushing absolute lies.
Hyperbolic lies that are designed to basically polarize and incite.
And so the Trump impeachment thing, I mean, there's no case that Donald Trump incited anything.
Okay.
It's now been proven that all the, whoever the radicals are, they had already planned to be radical well in advance.
They weren't taking orders from the, from the white house and that Trump's speech he gave on the day.
If you look at the actual timeline, uh, it happened more or less around the same time that people were gathering at the, uh, at, at Capitol Hill.
So he wasn't, he didn't say anything that could possibly be, you know, interpreted as inciting insurrection.
I mean, it wasn't, if it's an insurrection, that's when somebody basically mobilizes the military
to overthrow a government.
I mean, they're using, they're throwing these terms around just to fast track federal powers and statutes.
That's all they're doing.
The media, the Democrats are trying to ramp up the emotion, ramp up the crisis to fast-track legislation that'll give more power to the federal government.
That's what's going on.
And this is dangerous.
This is not democracy.
This is just an insane Reactionary, I'll call it, way of governing that's just going to lead to more problems and will eventually lead to a potential civil, real civil conflict, maybe civil war down the road.
This is what they're pushing towards.
Why?
Because they were just beside themselves that a populist candidate managed to get elected in 2016.
That's one of the reasons, but I think there's some deeper agendas at play as well that have got us to this point that we're in motion long before Donald Trump appeared on the scene.
Yes, it's the rise and rise of what we call the authoritarian centre, which sort of rather cleverly manages to hoodwink people into thinking that, oh, we are actually the reasonable people, you know, the likes of Blair, You know, we're not the extreme right-wingers, therefore we are not totalitarians.
But in fact, they are the ones pushing the authoritarian agenda.
Because globalism, neoliberal slash neoconservatism, is in fact totalitarianism very cleverly disguised.
Absolutely.
You hit the nail on the head, Basil.
They're trying to construct a dialectic that's liberalism versus authoritarianism.
The West is liberal, Russia is an authoritarian government, whatever.
That's right.
And also, of course, within the United States, it's Trump and his fellow travelers.
Who, as they've now been sort of universally branded as white supremacists of course, I mean any kind of political gathering like the Trump March in Washington that features largely white people Can now simply be described as a white supremacist gathering, whether or not that's what they're actually there to demonstrate.
You see what I mean?
Yeah.
Anything where there's sort of 98% white people.
Forget about the fact that black and Latino people voted for Trump in record numbers.
That doesn't matter.
They're obviously all just misguided fools.
But anyway, it's the Trumpian rights that they love to portray as being the danger to democracy.
Right?
This was a That's what the claim is about the Capitol Hill fancy dress parade.
But in fact, the damage to democracy is being done by the whatever legislation is now coming fast down the train tracks.
And by the media.
The media have done irreparable damage to democracy, have done irreparable damage to society through their lying.
And they're fictional reporting and MSNBC, former Al Jazeera talking head, who's just an absolute toxic waste bin.
His name is Mehdi Hassan.
And he's one of the worst.
He's up there with Don Lemon is one of the worst journalists on the planet.
And he's arguing that we should think of Trump followers as if they were Al-Qaeda members who move freely among us because they are white rather than brown and Muslim.
I mean, when I hear things like this, you know, I'll tell you something.
I've been on the ground in Syria and Iraq and I have seen real terrorists and real Al-Qaeda, okay, with my own eyes.
And ISIS as well, some of them.
And you have been punished by Ritchie Allen for saying so?
Yeah, exactly.
And I've also been on the ground during the migrant crisis on the US southern border.
I have been on the ground at Bundy Ranch and I have seen the supposed right-wing militias and supposed, you know, patriot extremists or whatever they're being called And to compare Americans in the MAGA camp or QAnon, the odd QAnon supporter, as being equivalent to Al-Qaeda?
You got to be kidding me.
And by the way, the US government armed Al-Qaeda.
They shipped them billions of dollars worth of weapons.
You don't hear a lot about that in this conversation from any of these mainstream media and security experts.
Julia Kayyem from former DHS official under Obama who's a CNN expert, quote expert, she's saying they should treat MAGA as a terrorist movement.
Make America Great is a terrorist movement and Trump is it's Osama Bin Laden.
I rest my case.
These people are complete nut jobs.
But they're being given the highest platforms.
Yes, no, absolutely.
But what they seek, what the hidden agenda would appear to be, at the risk of sounding like the dreaded conspiracy theorist that I'm not, I deal only in facts, but the agenda would appear to be the destruction of the traditional America of the post-war period and then pre-war.
You know, mum's apple pie and big cars and the You know, traditional sports.
American culture has never been particularly sophisticated.
But nevertheless, it was at least a genuine representation of a people and had some sort of coherence and dignity to it.
And America always struck me when I've ever been there as a particularly hard working country based on the Protestant work ethic.
And that's what created the wealth, you know, and a country where the family unit was strong and people actually very largely had very strong morals and ideas about the way they should conduct themselves and the way society should be organized.
And the aim really is to completely turn that on its head, to denigrate I mean, we've seen this with all the statue toppling and all the rest of it, to denigrate everything from the past in some kind of cultural revolution, for want of a better expression, which started a few years ago, which gathered pace tremendously in
In the summer, and which now under Biden looks set to continue.
But note, by the way, that the rioters have been out again since the inauguration.
There's been rioting in Portland again this week.
I don't know if you saw that.
Yeah, I did.
Yeah, it's actually not stopped since the summer, but it's a permanent state of rioting, basically.
The mayor loves it, too.
He's cheering them on.
So rather than an evolution of American civilization, culture, and let's not forget that through most of the 1970s and 80s, for example, race relations in America, for the most part, improved.
Absolutely.
To the extent that in 2008 and again in 2012, this supposedly systemically racist country elected a black president.
Exactly, exactly.
White people elected Barack Obama.
Absolutely.
That's where the majority of his support comes from.
So if it's a racist country, explain to me how Barack Obama wins by a landslide.
Of course it wasn't, and I still don't believe it's a racist country, although there's people
wanting to engineer it into that, basically.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Listen to this.
I'll riff off of what you just said, Basil, because Michael McFaul is a former U.S.
Embassy in Ukraine, one of Obama's henchmen, regime change henchmen, a complete maniac, and a total freak on Twitter, if you follow him on Twitter.
I'm blocked, by the way, because I I unfortunately debated him on a subject he was very
uncomfortable with, which was the coup in Kiev and he blocked me.
But so he's saying, this is what he has to say, you know, what you just said is really
important and prescient.
So he's accusing the Russians.
So he's basically saying, this is Glenn Deason at RT, wrote a fantastic piece.
He's saying the ideological incompatibility between American liberalism and Russian conservatism is less convincing.
For example, Michael McFaul, who's going to be in a Biden position, he cautions against against Putin's nefarious conservative ideology committed to get this committed to Christian traditional family values that threatens the liberal international order being led by can you believe that yeah so it's flipped you remember back in the Cold War days and Deason makes this point in this great article
The West was portrayed as capitalist, Christian, and democratic, and then behind the Iron Curtain was portrayed as communist, atheist, and authoritarian.
Okay?
And that was how the dialectic was constructed.
And it did reflect reality to some large degree.
But this is flipped now.
Now the West You have capitalism as being usurped by this kind of centralized command-and-control COVID economy.
I call it suicide socialism combined with crony capitalism.
And then atheism is clearly in the ascendancy in the United States and Canada and Western Europe.
And then, democracy is pretty much, you know, on life support in the West.
It's very authoritarian, and it's a plutocracy, essentially.
And then, you have the opposite in the ascendancy in Russia, and some of these Eastern European countries.
They're more democratic, they're more capitalistic, and they're more Christian, and more conservative.
Isn't it amazing how it's flipped?
Yeah, I mean, that's a very bold statement there.
He's being very honest, really, you know.
But that's where we're headed, unfortunately.
It is the, you know, rather than the slow evolution of a society, it's a cultural revolution.
And it claims to be inclusive, of course.
You know, Biden has picked his cabinet very largely, it seems, according to people's Identity, including the transsexual health minister.
But in reality, the society we've got now is much more exclusive because quality of life has deteriorated so much.
The accountants have taken over and we have this new sort of psychic imprisonment With people afraid to speak their minds, whether in workplaces or in public forums, people increasingly are cowed into, you know, not wanting to say anything that could quite frankly get them sacked, you know, for making a joke out of place, even flirting with somebody.
So, you know, what is supposed to be a more tolerant society is in fact a less tolerant one.
Yeah, yeah, that seems to be an increasing trend.
Liberal authoritarianism is what I, what I like to call it.
Yeah.
Well, look, we're gonna, we're gonna, on that somber note, we've just, just about wrapped things up.
I'll give you the final minute, Basil, if you got anything, any bright, bright stars on the horizon or anything like that?
It's not much of a crumb, but I was pleased to see that Biden has appointed a supporter of net neutrality.
I don't know if you saw that, did you?
No, I didn't see that, no.
Jessica Rosenworcel is acting FCC chair, acting Federal Communications Commission chair, and she is On record as supporting net neutrality and treating the internet as a public utility.
So we have to at least see a bright spark where there is one.
You know perhaps that's the best appointment so far because the rest have been pretty dire.
Yeah we'll keep an eye because that net neutrality issue can also be used To taper the freedoms of the internet as well.
So yeah, we pay attention to the fine print as well.
I'm sure you know more about that than me, Patrick.
But what I'm saying is, it's an important conversation.
And we need to, it's one of the important ones to, people need to be on top of, among many.
Because yes, that's where we're getting our information these days, on the internet.
So we want to be as free and open as possible.
Absolutely.
Yeah, it's absolutely crucial over the next four years.
Yeah, absolutely.
So yeah, look into the net neutrality debate.
Learn as much as you can about that.
Get informed.
And your voice on that is going to be important too, among other things.
But thank you very much, Mr. Basil Valentine, our Roving Correspondent for Culture and Sport.
Thank you, Patrick.
And once again, and I want a big thank you to all of our listeners.
Again, to all of our supporters at the Sunday Wire who've jumped in.
21st Century Wire readers jumped in to support us for this winter fundraising drive.
We're getting there.
We're getting there.
We're probably just over halfway, hopefully, to where we need to be for next year's funding.
That's something we'll be talking more about next week in more detail as well.
And hopefully we'll have more names to read out.
People have jumped in to help support us.
And also don't forget this network that's hosting us now, the Alternate Current Radio Network.
It's also in need of your support going forward.
ACR, you go to the link at the top of our show page, goes to the website, look at options to donate as well or become a patron and ways that you can help and sponsor the Alternate Current Radio Network, a great independent radio network which hosts this show, The Boiler Room and so many other great politic Talk and music shows on ACR.
Help support ACR.
They need your help going forward.
That's it, ladies and gentlemen.
That's the show.
Again, I'm your host Patrick Henningsen.
It's been a pleasure to do this broadcast this week with you.
Very important broadcast.
But these are very important times and it's time for people to really focus, really focus, get engaged now because things are happening.
They're happening right now and it's happening in our lifetime.
So we'll be here to talk more about that next week.
Tune in to 21stCenturyWire.com this week for your news, views, and analysis and look for new episodes of 21 Wire live on YouTube.
We'll be back.
Back on the launch pad there around midweek.
So that's it.
Take care everybody.
All the best.
...
Good news, Boppers.
The big alert has been called off.
