Need to Know News TEXAS TUESDAY (5 April 2022) with Joe Olson and Michael Ivey

Time Text
This is Jim Fetzer in Madison, Wisconsin, delighted to be joined today on another Texas Tuesday by Joe Olson from Houston and Michael Ivey, formerly of Fort Worth, now residing in Nashville, North Carolina, bringing you all the news you need to know.
The first story is actually staggering in its implications.
The end of Title 42 will open floodgates to illegal migration.
The National Border Patrol Chief is reporting 100,000 migrants were released into the United States in March.
The number is going to balloon as catch and release is among the biggest drivers of illegal migration.
Border agents have been using the Trump-era public health rule to expel between 52 and 55 percent of unauthorized migrants.
The rest were processed under a federal statute called Title A, which in most cases allows them to stay in the U.S.
while their cases are reviewed.
They come here, they disappear, we never see them again.
They acknowledge that it's 50-50 odds already encouraging more unauthorized migrants to come to the border and a Monday broadcast explains concern that most, if not all of it, are processed under Title 8.
After May 23rd, we'll ultimately be released.
The situation is absolutely untenable.
We can talk about root causes all we want, but there's a simple fact.
The evidence bears it out.
Catch and release is the single biggest driver, meaning they know if they're caught, they're going to be released.
If we reward people for violating our laws, people are going to continue to violate our laws.
They're going to continue to con.
When we're talking about getting rid of Title 42, the floodgates are going to completely bust open!
Immigration advocates have welcomed the end of Title 42, put in place to prevent cross-border spread of COVID, but used by Trump and now Biden to manage the surges of 2018, 2019, and 2021.
Advocates point out showing up at borders to apply for asylum is lawful, that Title 42 left thousands of asylum seekers no choice but to enter the country illegally.
But agency union leaders say few migrants arrive at the border without paying smugglers to bring them in.
Those organizations will now coach everyone to say they want asylum.
Judd and Council Del Rio President Joe F. Henson said apprehensions are already trending up.
Just to give you an idea, if we apprehend 3,500 a day, our resources are thin, we can still marginally manage.
But once we hit 5,000, our resources are completely overwhelmed and we're at crisis level.
Last week we had 8,000 in one day.
Half the agents are tied up transporting and processing migrants, leaving about 245 miles of U.S.-Mexico border virtually unguarded.
Chris Coberra, Vice President of the National Border Control Council, said agents are starting off their shifts at processing stations, hospitals, or transportation details instead of out on patrol, so more and more can get through.
We're beckoning a lot of people to come in because they know once they get here they're not going back.
He's concerned about Title 42 ending just as Texas heat ramps up days and days prior to the start of the hurricane Ceylon.
The heat year claims the lives of people traversing the deserts in northern Mexico and southwestern U.S.
Copious rain will pose a danger to the government's soft-sided tent overflow facilities.
They say the Biden administration has not communicated to them how it intends to enforce the nation's immigration laws once Title 42 is gone.
And that's because they don't want any enforcement.
I got an emergency call this morning from someone down there who knows what's going on, saying they're planning to bring massive, massive numbers, huge convoys to the US once Title IV is abandoned, removed.
Biden is flooding the United States with migrants.
This is a major source.
There's even talk of Ukrainian terrorist soldiers flooding the border because no one's checking anybody commit massive crimes and assaults on Americans here in the USA.
This man is the greatest traitor in the history of the United States.
Joe.
Yeah, and the curious thing is they still let him walk around with a nuclear football, man.
This guy is absolutely demented.
Yeah, Title 42.
It's a section under the CDC where expulsions and removals are based on A country where there's a recent communicable disease present.
Well, let's quit testing for it.
Let's pretend like we have a vaccine that works and then we can say there is no emergency at all.
And who did this?
The director of the CDC.
How did she get her job?
She's appointed by the Health and Human Services Committee.
And who is in charge of the Health and Human Services?
That would be Robert Califf.
He worked in Health and Human Services As a director, Senate-approved under Obama.
And then he appointed Janet Woodcock, who was not approved by the Congress, so he had to appoint somebody else.
So he reached into his grab bag, pulled out Robert Califf, who was a professor at Duke and who was paid for research by Merck, Johnson & Johnson, Glasgow SmithKline, AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly.
And Bristol Myers Squibb.
So here we have somebody that's an absolute 100% pharmaceutical insider who's now in charge of the CDC and, excuse me, the HHS.
And he's the one who would be responsible for replacing this clown that we have in the way of What's her name?
Walensky.
Yeah, Walensky.
What a clown, man.
And she also unilaterally decided that they don't need to have any committee hearings on the fourth and fifth boosters because we know everything that Big Pharma does is absolutely correct, and then we're going to go ahead and keep punching this stuff into six-month-old babies.
This woman is a war criminal par excellence, and why we still have to deal with this is an unanswered question.
Why is America having to deal with this level of corruption that's so obvious on every front?
It's insane.
Yes, it is.
It is insane, and it's clear appointees have been made to these crucial positions because they are out to flood the U.S.
with these migrants and do everything they can to destroy our social, cultural, economic fabric.
Michael.
Yeah, this further facilitation of the destruction of the southern border.
I had a conversation with my 86 year old brother the other day who's still quite intellectually present, but but he doesn't.
He doesn't know a lot of the deep stuff that we deal with and he he May after we talked about a couple of these things he made the comment You know, it's almost like they're doing everything they can to destroy this country Yeah And you know We've talked about it many times.
This is the application of the strategy of the Kutinov-Kalergi plan that dates from the 1920s and that the Rothschilds took under their wing.
This is Kalergi's word, mongrelization.
the human populace, which, by the way, qualifies as genocide under international law, the doing away with racial identity for everyone, except, as Kalargi pointed out, the Jews, who would then be in as Kalargi pointed out, the Jews, who would then be in the position of being the rulers of everything that's left when they've mongrelized the whole
And this has been happening in Europe for decades now that the EU even gave a prize to the political leader who most furthered the goals of the Kalergi plan.
But then they and they called it the Clarity Prize.
But then they figured that was too obvious.
So they changed the name after a while to the Charlemagne Prize.
Yeah.
So I'll leave it there for now.
No, those are great comments, Michael.
Very appropriate.
And this could also be the Cloward-Pivens strategy developed in 1966 by political activists Richard Cloward and Francis Fox Piven to overwhelm the system with a bunch of illegals and a bunch of welfare rats and a bunch of deficit spending.
You just make it where the sole system, you know, releasing criminals.
The whole plot is exactly like Cloward and Pivens.
suggested to destroy the country as well.
See, my concern is who can do anything about it?
Why is nothing being done about it?
I've heard the suggestion that sheriffs could be deputized to arrest them for trespassing by, you know, they could deputize National Guard to fulfill the role of deputy sheriffs and enforce a law they could deputize National Guard to fulfill the role of deputy sheriffs and enforce a law if the governors of the states with borders, California,
But I think California for sure would not do that, because they're run by gruesome newsome, and I'm told New Mexico is all but a lost cause.
If we've got a major border like with New Mexico that can't be enforced, then that's just going to pour in.
It's just like water with a dike.
Joe, are you equally concerned?
Who the hell is going to stop this?
Well, in Spanish they've got a name for it.
It's called Palomo o Plata, which means either silver or lead, and the unfortunate thing is that every one of the sheriffs that has a adjoining county to the border also has a family, and they may be 10 foot tall, but they're not bulletproof, and we can see the rampant violence that's apparent all across the border on the Mexican side.
All we got to do is just make these people mad and then boom, we've got a full-fledged war going on on our border.
So if we're so concerned about the body count in Ukraine, why aren't we concerned about the body count that's happening along the Mexican side of the border and the American side?
It's insane.
The whole thing's insane.
No other way to describe it.
At least a full-fledged war on our border would make sense and do good for the American people "because doing nothing is catastrophic." It's welcoming our own demise.
We are being slaughtered as a community by an influx of residents who don't give a damn about the United States, but a free ride being offered by the Democrats as an incentive, and they're destroying the Democrat demography of the United States.
Michael, further thoughts?
Well, I'm like you, Jim.
We are being destroyed, and I don't have a very optimistic viewpoint on the whole thing, because it seems like there's been so many people in high places that have been compromised by this globalist money machine, and that and blackmail, between bribery and blackmail.
There's so many people compromised that it's really difficult to see any way out of this that has to do with the upholding of law or the passing of law.
That's not going to happen.
So, you know, the sort of take the law into your own hands approach, I'm sure is going to happen in a lot of places, but the compromised government might come right back and throw some Troops or UN troops in the faces of people who are trying to take it into their own hands.
Yep, yep.
We got a hell of a pickle here.
Meanwhile, Gazprom has halted all gas supplies to Europe via the critical pipeline.
After European nations imported most gas from Russia sources in months, trying to stock up on supplies, the deadline to pay in roubles came and went.
Russian gas giant Gazprom has officially halted all deliveries to Europe via the Yamal-Europe pipeline, A critical artery for European energy supplies.
Instead of flowing towards Germany and the EU, Friday and Saturday they began flowing in the opposite direction.
In recent months, the US boosted imports of liquid natural gas, despite Biden's promise to bolster exports to the EU.
Not all this claiming would come from the U.S.
since the U.S.
is already short itself.
Researchers at Goldman Sachs have already shown U.S.
exports of liquid natural gas are already at capacity, so he made a false promise.
Another problem for pipeline-dependent Europe.
The continent presently doesn't have the infrastructure to allow it to rapidly ramp up imports of liquid natural gas, which must be carefully processed and regasified before it can be distributed to utilities, converted from liquid to gas form.
Here's the dependence of various European economies on Russia.
The darker the green, the greater the dependence.
Austria and Hungary, Latvia among the most, Czech Republic, Slovia, Germany, Italy, Bulgaria, not quite as dependent but still massively dependent, others less so.
It's not just the Germans now who must make due.
British energy major Shell is being cut off too.
London wants to be the leader of everything anti-Russian.
It even wants to be ahead of Washington.
That's the cost in response to the UK's economic sanctions on Russia.
So far, the only country to have imposed sanctions through which payments are made is the UK, which effectively denies Britain the ability to pay for it, forced Gazprom to walk away from the sales and trading arm.
Now Putin is turning up the pressure.
European nations have a difficult choice.
Either they can play ball and demonstrate to the world that their efforts to wean themselves off their dependence on Russian energy have been mostly in vain by paying in rubles, or they can face a catastrophic economic crisis as energy prices soar, leading to rationing, blackouts, and other measures that will make the 1970s oil crisis in the U.S.
look like child's play.
Germany and France have responded to the Russian demand that they're not going to bow to the gas for ruble demand.
Well, now we know the consequences.
The German minister said the EU would not be blackmailed by Russia to use the rubles to buy gas.
The Russian president said those countries that have imposed sanctions are going to have to pay in rubles or otherwise their correspondent supply will be cut off.
They're actually also allowing in gold.
You can also buy Russian gas in gold.
Gas contracts between European countries and Russia were negotiated in euros.
A statement from the Group of Seven said, we will under no circumstances accept paying for gas deliveries in a currency other than the contractually agreed upon currency.
I don't see an easy way out because I am quite certain Putin is going to be unrelenting.
Joe?
Yeah, well, amazingly enough, Westerners seized $630 billion of Russian assets that were in banks for trade in the West.
So, you know, what do you expect when you're dealing with pirates?
You just have to deal with pirates the way they are.
Germany said that and UK both said that they were going to seize all of Gazprom's facilities.
Well, the facilities that they are seizing are gas storage tanks, and like one of the guys said, it's like filling your tank up with gas and then saying, okay, I'll never have to fill my tank up again because it's full of gas this morning.
Well, guess what, kids?
The amount of stored gas that's in the Gazprom pipeline facilities that are serving England and UK Are there to even out the fluctuations between demand and if there's drops in the pipeline supply so that they can maintain a constant pressure, which is what you need to maintain a functional 24-7 energy system.
So bottom line is these people are absolute clowns.
And as far as LNG, we did a great discussion on this on the AGW-8 series that Jim and I did.
And this is one that we did back in early March, end of February.
AGW is anthropomorphic global warming, so that's the big hoax, but LNG requires that you take liquefied natural gas, chill it down to minus 160 degrees centigrade, and for Americans that's minus 260 degrees Fahrenheit.
You put it in a steel tank that's insulated that has another steel tank on the outside of it, And then you ship it across the ocean where you unload it.
But then there's no cargo that can be put on that ship to send back.
So you send the ship back empty to pick up some more American liquefied natural gas.
It would take 200 additional tankers like that in order to make up the lost supply from Russia.
So these people are playing suicide.
And what they're going to try to do is blame all of the damage on Putin, just like they're doing with all of the war crimes that are being committed by the Azov mercenaries and militias that are roaming around shooting people all over the country and then piling them up and saying the Russians did it.
This is absolutely insane that we have to deal with this level of unrepentant mind control on the part of the media.
The UN, which blocked Russia being able to present evidence to the Security Council about the war crimes being committed by the Ukrainians.
Ukrainians.
And, you know, the rotten news media that we've got worldwide, absolutely insufferably bad news media.
No, I agree with everything you just said.
And when are we going to do something about it?
We've got a traitor in the White House who's out to destroy America.
There's no question about it.
Michael, your thoughts?
Yeah, I also agree with everything Joe just said.
The evil empire behind the curtain controls the UN and always has, and all the media of the Western world, which is probably their number one Weapons, since the human mind is the very first thing to subjugate in situations like this.
I heard someone recently being interviewed about conditions in Germany lately.
I think that's a story that's coming up, though, about soaring food and gas prices there.
We know they've always had, the Empire has always had a special hatred for the Germans ever since, especially they tried to break away from the banking system in the 30s.
The gas for ruble story, besides hearkening or signaling the death of the dollar as the reserve currency, which in fact accomplishes another goal of their goals for a great reset, which in fact accomplishes another goal of their goals for a great reset, the replacement of the currency with a digital system,
The restriction of both food and energy supplies to the people is a sure way of depopulating the earth.
And that Those particular right and left barrels of that gun, it looks to me, are being focused on the white Christian-based countries of the world, and I think that that's the case because the rulers see us as their only remaining real competition or obstacle to their implementation of their new world order.
There was a great interview in the Reiner Fulmick series with an attorney named Todd Callender recently, and he said, all of this arises from Agenda 21, which has three primary goals.
Those three goals are number one, the elimination of private property rights, which Klaus Schwab has not been secretive about trumpeting and which, you know, that's the central plank of communism.
Number two, the elimination of borders.
And is that not Entirely obvious.
There's mass engineered mass migrations into the United States and Europe.
And you can see that the reason that they want to eliminate the borders is because they want to eliminate sovereignty.
And number three, the third plank of Agenda 21, which they call sustainable development, is in fact mass depopulation.
And we are in all three of those experiences right now.
Extremely good comments, Michael.
Extremely good.
Spot on.
Meanwhile, German retailers are going to increase food prices by 20 to 50 percent on Monday.
That would be yesterday, days after Germany reported highest inflation in a generation, soaring at a 7.6 percent annual pace, blowing away all expectations.
Locals have a distinctly unpleasant déjà vu feeling even before the invasion broke, with few supply chains remaining, prices going even higher.
Look at them soar.
Germany will take a step toward return of the dreaded Weimar hyperinflation, According to the German Retail Association, consumers prepare for another wave of price hikes for everyday goods and groceries expected to explode between 20 and 50 percent.
It's happening there now.
It's going to happen here soon.
Even before the outbreak of the war, prices had risen about 5% across a product range.
A second wave is coming.
It'll be in the double figures.
The first retail chains have already begun to raise their prices in Germany.
The rest are going to follow.
We'll soon be able to see the impact of the war reflected in price labels across all of the supermarkets.
German retail chains.
Translation.
Aldi, for example, expects an increase of 20 to 50 percent in its purchase prices in the coming weeks.
Already on Monday, meat, sausage, and butter are to become significantly more expensive.
Since the start of the war, there have been jumps in merchants' prices we have not experienced before.
Aldi raised the price of 160 items two weeks ago.
A week later, 20 more items.
Germany's cost of living rose at the highest level since reunification.
According to a recent public survey, almost all companies in Germany's food retail section are planning price increases.
With rumors of shortages swirling, supermarket owners have been complaining of this sort of panic buying not seen since the first months of the pandemic.
Surprise, surprise!
German supermarkets have even begun limiting the purchase of cooking oils and flour to prevent a mass rush to stock up on items customers believe will run out.
In other words, limit the sale of those products in highest demand, also known as a brilliant strategy.
And now everyday food prices are about to surge as much as 50%.
It'll be interesting to see how much longer the German people will condone a NATO stance that has been seeking to stoke and perpetuate a war in Ukraine.
Joe?
Well, get used to mealworms and grasshoppers, children, because that's exactly what they plan for your future.
Yeah, you don't need no stinking animal proteins unless it's the animals that we specify.
Yeah, pretty sick.
Henry Kissinger was ringleader of this whole rotten Nazi group, along with Soros, and He had an interesting position under Richard Nixon, and in 1973 he made the public statement that was published in the Washington Post, the illegal we do immediately, the unconstitutional takes longer.
And then the next year, 1974, he made the comment, who controls the food supply controls the people.
He who controls energy can control continents, so that's what they're trying to do.
And then to double down on his comment about the unconstitutional, in 1974 we were passing the Freedom of Information Act where the FOIA requests could disclose secrets the government didn't want disclosed, and Henry Kissinger repeated his statement about the unconstitutional stuff taking longer, and he said, I won't be able to make statements like that anymore because The FOIA will be able to discover them.
Yeah, this is what we've had for an ongoing conspiracy since...
The turn of last century.
I mean, we've had 125 years nonstop of this conspiracy by this same banking cartel, and they're close to their endgame, and that's why they're pushing everything as hard as they can right now, because too many people have caught on, and it's possible that we can pull the plug and prevent the controlled demolition from falling the way they want, but the demolition is coming, kids.
Michael, your thoughts?
Yeah, I agree with that.
They've entered the endgame, and so it's no holds barred now.
They're turning loose every strategy that they know, and they're trying to do it gradually like frogs boiling in water, but they're moving so fast.
There's a lot of people who are waking up, and that's one of our only hopes right now.
That last story's mention of the Aldi food store franchise reminded me that just this last week I saw a big billboard in front of one of the Aldi's here in Asheville.
Taken out by the Rotary Organization, which is supposed to be, you know, like the Lions Club or something, but it's Rotary International now, and this big billboard in front of Aldi was telling people that the only way to defeat the COVID-19 pandemic is global, and that's what it said, global vaccination.
I thought that's wild, you know?
Here we have the Rotary Organization being medical advisors.
That's just disgusting, Michael.
Disgusting!
Meanwhile, Biden refers to Michelle Obama as Vice President during an event and the Internet goes viral.
During the commemoration ceremony for the USS Delaware, he referred to her as Vice President by mistake.
I think it must be in mind, suggesting to me, maybe they want to switch out Kamala for Michelle as a far more popular, in fact, the most popular woman in America, and then take out Biden and move Michelle up.
The U.S.
President found himself at the receiving end of criticism after a major faux pas during a speech back on April 2nd.
During the commissioning ceremony of the Delaware, he referred to Michelle as Vice President by an unfortunate mistake.
Here you can hear Joe say it.
And I'm deeply proud of the work she's doing as First Lady with Joining Forces Initiative.
She started with Michelle Obama when she was vice president and now carries on.
She started with Michelle Obama.
She started with Michelle Obama.
The video's gone viral with millions of viewers.
initiative.
She started with Michelle Obama when she was vice president and now carries on.
And I'm deep.
And I'm deep.
I mean, how bad is that?
The video's gone viral with millions of viewers.
Netizens were quick enough to point out a series of mistakes he'd made previously.
She should have been and almost was, tweets one.
No, he misspoke.
Tweets another.
He obviously meant to say when I was vice president.
Relax.
However, according to the speech and transcript shared on the official website, the error was pointed out and rectified, proving it was an unfortunate mistake on Biden's part.
But he's making a lot of these gaffes and is incompetent and is making the United States a laughingstock of the world.
No one takes us seriously anymore.
And even Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates won't even take phone calls from the erstwhile President of the United States.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yeah, well, history repeats itself.
We're in a situation very similar to when Spiro Agnew was convicted and forced to resign as vice president.
And then they selected Gerald Ford, who was the minority leader from Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Nobody even knew who he was because the GOP was such a minor player at that particular time on a congressional basis.
But he was also on the Warren Commission.
So, you know, he had all the pedigree it took to be the stand-in man for Tricky Dick, and then Tricky Dick ended up getting impeached.
Okay, so the Senate confirmed with a vote of 92 to 3 on November 27, 1973.
And then on August 9, 1974, Tricky Dick had to say he was not a crook, but he was going to resign anyway, just so that nobody thought he was a crook.
So now we have a situation where we're going to have a president that resigns.
The vice president's parents were students on student visas and neither one of them was a naturalized citizen at the time that she was born.
So she is an anchor baby and not a natural born U.S.
citizen.
And because she's such a complete idiot airhead, There will likely be a move to make her disqualified, at which point whoever it is that they appoint for VP will be able to step up and then take over in her little short term as VP.
So we're in for some really troubled times, but be ready for everything that you ever thought about American Constitution and American history be turned on its head because you've been fed lies for your whole entire life.
Michael, your thoughts?
Yeah, I don't know that I can add anything to that.
His reference to Michelle as Vice President struck me.
Well, that's not nearly as bad as Obama calling him Michael several times in public, which is actually his real name.
But then, when you own the media, you can pretend stuff like that didn't happen, which is exactly what happened.
Yeah, it's all stunning, stunning.
How are the American people going to feel about having a vice president who's a man with breast implants and a huge shaving bill?
Oh, Jim, on that note, I just saw an A, B, or a picture next to each other of the man who became Theresa Tam.
Have you seen that?
No.
Teresa Tam is the Chinese Chief Public Health Officer of Canada.
And it turns out that, I just thought she was a very ugly woman, but it turns out she's also a transgender man.
So that means that we now have transgender men Being women as the main public health officer in both Canada and the United States.
Yeah, it's just absolutely flabbergasting, and frankly, I believe it's because Michelle and Brock are not a normal couple.
They're trying to normalize transgender everything, gay, lesbian, whatever.
This is their agenda, and it's doing massive damage to the United States.
Unreal.
Meanwhile, Hospital CEOs are joining the great resignation.
The number of departing chief executive officers in hospitals are on the rise as they're grappling with challenges tied to the pandemic.
I suspect they have, in some cases, a lingering conscience and a sense of guilt over what they're doing.
Twelve exited their roles in January, double the number who stepped down a month, a year earlier.
While some are retiring, others are stepping into similar roles in other organizations.
At least eight hospital and health system CEOs have stepped down since mid-February.
That's a relatively short period of time.
It's not unique to health care.
100 CEOs of U.S.-based companies left their posts in January, up from 89 the year before.
The uptick shouldn't be surprising given the challenges posed by the pandemic.
It's many factors.
The burnout, the pandemic, the school closures, the need to take stock of life, said Julia Pollack, chief economist at Zip Recruiter.
In January, it's a whole wide range of shocks.
I would like to think that a sense of guilt over the immorality of it all has made a difference.
Possibly not.
Meanwhile, the chilling reason they won't declare the pandemic over During the past two years to keep everyone safe, the globalists have justified unprecedented attacks on democracy, civil liberties, and personal freedom, including the right to choose your own medical treatment.
Now who wants to make its pandemic leadership permanent and extend it into the healthcare of every nation?
Coming off the back of the COVID pandemic, the World Health Organization is proposing a new pandemic treaty.
They're hoping it will be accepted by enough members to become a reality by 2024.
The pandemic is a direct threat to a nation's sovereignty to make decisions for itself and its citizens, which would erode democracy everywhere.
Have no doubt about it.
There are a number of things in the treaty that people of the world need to consider before going down this path.
In short, it would create a one-size-fits-all approach to disease without regard for all the varying situations found in individual countries, not to mention individual citizens, and this is something we already know does not work.
The treaty is a direct threat to a nation's sovereignty to make decisions for itself and its citizens that would erode democracy everywhere.
It would cost each member country millions of dollars, moreover.
As explained by Mohammed, a critic, the treaty will need to go through a voting process at the World Health Assembly in 2023.
They need a majority for it to pass, and if passed, all member countries will be bound for it.
I'd say that's a good reason to get the hell out of the World Health Assembly.
Another concern is that many countries don't even know about the treaty.
It's possible who might try to push for implementation before 2024, all without public participation or input.
It's undemocratic, it's unconstitutional, and therefore it makes a treaty invalid and unlawful.
She highlights whose many policy failures intrinsically link to conflicts of interest.
In an open letter to the WHO, it writes in part, the proposed WHO agreement is unnecessary as a threat to sovereignty and inalienable rights.
It increases WHO's suffocating power to declare unjustified pandemics, impose dehumanizing lockdowns, and enforce expensive, unsafe, and ineffective treatments against the will of the people.
The World Council for Health believes that people have a right to participate in any agreement that affects their lives, livelihoods, and well-being.
However, WHO is not engaged in a process of public participation.
Its priority is capturing more power, thus not serving the interests of the people.
Without an unbiased democratic process, any agreement with WHO will be unlawful, illegitimate, and invalid.
Historically, WHO leadership has failed the people.
Many know it improved the injurious H1N1 swine flu vaccine for a controversially declared pandemic.
WHO failed during the COVID chapter as it encouraged lockdowns, suppressed early preventive treatment, and recommended product interventions that have proven to be neither safe nor effective.
The facts.
Who cannot be allowed to control the world's health agenda nor enforce biosurveillance?
While it receives funding from public sources belonging to the people, it's caught in a perpetual conflict of interest because it also receives substantial funding from private interests who use their contribution to influence and profit from WHO decisions and mandates.
The Gates Foundation, for example, and Gates-funded Gavi Vaccine Promotion Alliance contribute over, get this, a billion dollars a year.
Another concern is that when people are harmed by the WHO's health policies, there's no accountability.
Who has diplomatic immunity?
While the treaty claims focused on pandemic planning and responses, it could be expanded to other areas of health.
Look at Article 2 of U.S.
Constitution.
To achieve its objective, the functions of the organization shall be a. To act as a directing and coordinating authority on international health, where k.
to propose conventions agreement and regulation make a recommendation with regard to international health matters s to establish and revise as necessary international nomenclatures of diseases of causes of death and of public health practices v generally to take all necessary action to attain the objectives of the organization If power is already very significant, the goal to turn WHO into a global health dictator is virtually written into its constitution.
Remember, WHO removed the specificity of mass casualties from the definition of a pandemic.
Now, a pandemic can be just about any disease that occurs in multiple countries.
Obesity could theoretically qualify.
WHO could claim power over healthcare systems in any number of ways, given the chance.
While most of the world is more than ready to move on, who seems unwilling to let go?
Who recently told the Ottawa citizen the COVID pandemic is far from over?
The reason for reluctance to declare the pandemic over is likely because who hopes to gain the power to mandate vaccine passports and COVID jabs worldwide?
It's already working on the creation of a global vaccine passport digital identity program.
Under the guise of a trust network, another initiative called Vaccination Credential Initiative is also gaining momentum.
Pioneering, partnering with big tech, big corporate, big university, VCI, a voluntary Coalition of Public and Private Committed to Empowering Individuals.
False.
Not empowering individuals.
Disempowering individuals.
Their smart health cards are already implemented by 25 states in America, Puerto Rico, and D.C., and have become the U.S.
de facto national passport.
Unbelievable.
The U.S.
government, unlike many European countries, has not issued their own official vaccine passport, knowing such a move would rankle with a more libertarian-leaning public, not to mention tangled in the question of state versus federal law.
The smart cards allow them to sidestep this issue.
They are technically only implemented by each state individually via agreements with VCI, which is technically a private entity.
However, since smart cards are indirectly funded by the government, their implementation across every state makes them a national standard in all but name.
The treaty would also give who the power to censor health information.
Censor!
On the European Council's webpage, Restoring Trust in the International Health System, it states, The agreement will set the foundation for better communication and information to citizens.
Misinformation threatens public trust and risks undermining public health responses.
To redeem citizen trust, concrete measures should be foreseen to improve the flow of reliability and accurate information, as well as tackle misinformation globally.
In other words, we can expect even greater censorship than we've experienced so far.
Tech companies have already proven where their allegiance lies, and it's not with the public.
Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, others have de-flatlined just about everyone who posts health information right in counter to what who is saying.
Real world data and verifiable facts be damned.
Financial platforms have also banned people for the same reason.
Now imagine there's a binding international law that makes that censorship mandatory.
You can learn more about the Great Reset from Schwab's book The Great Reset, but you might want to review the overwhelmingly negative comments about it on Amazon first.
As noted in a July 2020 World Economic Forum article, the economic devastation caused by the pandemic shutdown had the potential to hobble global prosperity for generations to come.
The answer, according to the World Economic Forum, is for countries to make sure the economic system is built back better.
Make no mistake, this catchy slogan is part and parcel of the Great Reset Plan and cannot be separated therefrom, no matter how altruistic it may sound.
Part of building back better is to shift the financial system to an all-digital, centrally-controlled currency system tied to a vaccine passport and our digital identity system.
Together, they will form a pervasive system of social control, as desired behaviors can be incentivized, undesired discouraged through loss of various privileges, including access to your own money.
Digital currency can even be programmed by the issuer, so it can only be used for specific types of purchases or expenses.
While it's going to be very difficult to stop this runaway train, part of our defense is to oppose and prevent Hu's pandemic treaty from becoming reality, as we seem to lose our national sovereignty if it does.
Joe, that's just Horrendous.
Your thought?
Well, nobody elected anybody in the WHO division of UN, and in order for them to be able to create a pandemic, they had to redefine pandemic Then they had to redefine immunization, where they removed natural immunization, and you could only get immunization from vaccines.
And then, since vaccines weren't processed the way they normally were and were not working the way they were claimed to work, They had to redefine vaccines.
So here we have a group of people that in order to be able to stay in power, they have to redefine every term that they were selected ostensibly to enforce.
And now they want to have carte blanche rule over all of the planet by this group of technocrats.
And if you want a parallel figure of dystopia.
Look at the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, founded in 1988, when carbon dioxide was going to cause the end of the world by the year 2000.
And then they had the Kyoto Protocols, which about half of the nations of the world said, we ain't signing this stupid thing.
That was in 1997.
And they said, oh, by 2010, There will never be snow on the planet again.
The sea level will rise 30 feet.
There'll be enormous storms everywhere.
You know, oh, Chicken Little says the sky is falling.
What do we do?
It's absolutely insane, and they want to have the same power over all energy use on the planet that they want to have over all of your personal health use.
We do not need a U.N.
and a U.N.
that has proven itself ineffective at doing its fundamental mission, which was to limit and stop wars.
And how many wars have there been since it was created in 1947?
It's an absolute, 100% Rockefeller Rothschild technocracy failure.
And we need to remove the U.N.
from the United States, and we need to remove the United States from the U.N.
We should have nothing ever to do with these people.
And we should be very guarded about anything we do in the way of international treaties, and those should only be bilateral treaties on a nation-to-nation basis, and they should have some type of exploration and review, because we don't need this type of ratchet government that is ultimately leading to nothing but feudalism.
Yes, yes, yes.
Well said, Michael.
Your thoughts?
Yeah, what Joe just said about the various forms of fear mongering that we've been exposed to on a continual basis reminded me of that famous H.L.
Mencken quote in which he says, the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them being imaginary.
Hospital that story about hospital CEOs brought up a phrase like rats off of a stinking ship.
It may be.
They may be acting from conscience about the killing fields that their hospital systems have become with these COVID protocols, or they might also be seeing the legal situation and trying to get out of the way of the massive legal liabilities with the release of some of the recent Pfizer documents about the lack of quality controls that they
That they applied to these so-called vaccinations.
It has really opened the door to the idea of fraud in this whole situation.
And as we know, fraud vitiates everything.
That means that all of their governmental Uh, what do you call it?
The where they can't be held responsible for anything.
All of their governmental protection will go away if they're convicted of fraud.
So, um.
That might be another reason.
The WHO treaty story, that treaty to me is just an overtly totalitarian power grab consolidating the control of health systems into this global point of control, which it You could say it has that behind the curtain, but this would put it out in the open.
I was glad to see that was a great letter by the World Council for Health that covers all the human rights reasons for not consolidating the health systems of the whole world, but it doesn't cover the more nefarious aspects of that type of consolidation, such as mass depopulation and the genetic Manipulation of the remaining population.
These people are insane.
They have no conscience and they really want to impose transhumanist agenda on the people of the world and turn everyone into some type of cog in an AI-directed system that is not that different from the Borg in the Star Trek series.
Oh, Michael, you made any number of really important addenda here.
I'm very, very delighted with what you've just said, including trying to get out of the way of the legal consequences of their malfeasance as CEOs of these companies have reaped such damage, the fact that it is a This is an agenda for the WHO to become the tyrant of the world based on medical considerations.
All of that, I think, is absolutely spot on and more.
Very, very nice.
Meanwhile, Hunter Biden probe broader than we thought.
Not even establishment media can ignore what's happening now.
The Times' admission two weeks ago that the emails were real was a signal to some that the Times was trying to get out ahead of something.
When the Washington Post, CNN, ABC, and NBC acknowledged these mails were real as well, we knew something was up.
Wednesday night, Thursday morning, multiple media outlets reported the inquiry into Biden's taxes that began years ago has expanded to include possible money laundering and foreign lobbying violations.
Wednesday, sources familiar told ABC, an increasing number of witnesses have appeared before the grand jury and panel in Wilmington, Delaware.
The Times, Admission, Herod said prosecutors are looking into Biden's transaction with a Chinese energy company, CEFC, an entity, Senator Chuck Grassley told his colleagues, was an arm of the Communist Chinese Party, in effect.
In 2007, CEFC assigned a million-dollar retainer for Hunter's Legal Services.
The client was CEFC official Patrick Ho, who was arrested and convicted of international bribery and money laundering charges for Unrelated work in Africa.
During Grassley's presentation on Monday, he displayed an August 2017 receipt for a $165,000 payment from CEFC to Wells Fargo Clearing Services, where Wells Fargo Clearing Services is one of Biden's companies.
Grassley confirmed this transaction was being made public for the first time, said he and Republican Senator Ron Johnson would be rolling out more receipts.
Catherine Herridge tweets, the Hunter Biden investigation began as a tax inquiry years ago and expanded into a federal probe.
Sources familiar now tell CBS News two men who worked with Hunter Biden when his father was VP were called to the grand jury last year.
None of these stories seem to substantiate the attention it's suddenly receiving.
Biden, Hunter, has built his career on selling access to his father.
So what's the draw?
Here are some possibilities.
Hunter could be indicted.
Evidence that his father benefited financially from his son's dealings could serve as evidence that Joe was aware of his son's underhanded business dealings could come to light.
The story has simply become too big for the establishment media to hide.
They have to pretend to be journalists.
Time will tell.
In the meanwhile, I think the real story is that the legacy media is reporting on this story at all.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yeah, well, if you want to have an idea of exactly how horrible the Hunter Biden laptop is, on March 3rd, beforeitsnews.com website put up about 10 pages of stuff that was directly from his laptop, which included emails, included lewd photos,
Uh, information on government security documents that were publicly disclosed and videos of him doing all sorts of obscene and illegal acts.
So that's been out there for a while, but he dropped his laptop off in like June of 2019, and when he didn't pick it up, the owner of the Computer Store notified the local, which I believe was in New Jersey, FBI office about it in like October of 2019.
They did absolutely nothing.
He notified really Giuliani, and Giuliani sent it over the Houston Post, I mean the New York Post, and the New York Post put some little efforts out on it, and they got blocked by Twitter and YouTube and Facebook, and so then they sent it to Christopher Wray at the FBI, and Billy Bagpipe Bar at the DOJ in December of 2019.
So that's proven that they knew about it at that time, and they did absolutely nothing.
They sat on it while 51 supposed Secret Service personnel, when people in the in the IC community, Publicly came out and signed a letter stating that it was classic Russian disinformation and they managed to keep it suppressed until after the 2020 election.
Now they know that there's so much coming up about the 2020 election that Biden's probably toast anyway.
And rather than admit that he stole the election, they would rather have him flushed because of previous criminal activity and be able to wipe the stage clean and say, well, OK, yeah, he was a bad guy, but we got rid of the bad guy.
Now we've got wonderful Harris.
And just like we mentioned before, Harris is going to be on a slippery slope, too, because she's absolutely worthless, probably worse than him.
him as far as intellectual capacity and integrity.
And so bottom line is we're going to have a vacuum of leadership until at least 2024, unless there's a major shift in this country.
Very, very nicely said, Joe Michael.
Yeah, I agree with what Joe just said as to their motivation and what you said, Jim, Jim, about the most curious thing to me about this whole sequence of events is the fact that the New York Times and then followed by these other evil empire owned and controlled mass media giants have come out saying that the information about the most curious thing to me about this whole sequence of events is the fact that the New York Times and then Saying that the information on this laptop and the laptop itself is real in the first place.
That's the most curious thing.
But I don't think they want to replace Biden with Harris.
I think they have something else in mind.
Just the fact that this is coming out, it's an obvious sign that the controllers have decided to pull the plug on Biden.
But exactly what they have in mind is really difficult to imagine, because Uh, you know, they haven't invited me to their meetings ever since I said 9-11 was an inside job, and that was about 20 years ago.
Whatever they have in mind, they probably have someone in mind, I think, other than Kamala Harris or Nancy Pelosi, because If they have any kind of sense about them, unless they just want to rub it in our face, they know these criminals might be even worse in a public speaking situation than Biden is, so who knows what they're going to do?
The ersatz Biden's reference to Michelle Obama as vice president was because he'd been told that they're going to replace Kamala with Michelle.
And given her immense popularity, I mean, she is the most popular non-woman in America.
Hillary is widely despised.
I think that's the direction they're going.
We shall see.
Meanwhile, Why people don't trust the media.
Bill Maher accuses left-wing media of burying the Hunter Biden laptop story because it didn't fit their narrative.
I say good for him!
More advice, Hunter.
Biden should never have left his computer with other people just for the personal stuff found on the laptop.
But it also had stuff about, you know, come on, he's a ne'er-do-well.
I'm sorry, Hunter, but you are.
You made a living being a ne'er-do-well.
It was making money just because you were the vice president's son and you had influence.
He got, I think, 4.8 million from Chinese energy companies to sit on the board and consult.
After reviewing government records, court docs, bank statements, emails—a whole host of videos, by the way—The Washington Post confirmed that Chinese energy conglomerate CEFC paid $4.8 billion to entities controlled by Hunter and his uncle, James Biden, Joe's brother, Jim.
The Chinese conglomerate paid a million legal retainer 3.8 in consulting fees.
Bar joke.
Yeah, that was his passion in life.
Energy exploration.
Hooker exploration was his passion.
Merck Knowledge.
So that Post got a hold of what was in the computer, and you know because the Post is Republican, and the Times and the Washington are the Democrat papers, and the Republican paper Twitter canceled their account.
They can't even report on this story.
He said in regard to the New York Post, a newspaper founded by Alexander Hamilton more than 220 years ago, being locked out of its own Twitter account for 16 days for sharing the Hunter scandal accusations on social media.
Now, two years later, the Times and Washington Post are coming around saying, OK, there was something there.
Merrick conceded the laptop story should have been taken with a giant grain of salt since the Post received the data from hardcore Trump allies Giuliani and Bannon, but it should not have taken two years to verify the accusation.
It looks like the left wing just buried the story because it wasn't part of their narrative, and that's why people don't trust the media.
He said of a story censored and dismissed in the weeks leading up to the 2020 presidential election.
Former Democrat candidate Andrew Yang was a guest on Real Time with Bill Maher and pointed out that trust in media falls very sharply along party lines.
A Gallup poll from October found 68% of Democrats had a great deal or a fair amount of trust in the media, but the number plunged to 31% when it comes to independence, and only 11% of Republicans believe the media.
Overall, 7% have a great deal, 29% a fair amount.
This is the lowest, however, since a record low in 2016.
Yang observed, this is part of the erosion of institutional trust, where one side feels the media is on the other side.
And it does seem as though the Hunter laptop story got buried because of the timing.
I mean, coming out at the height of the election and campaign in 2020, they did not want that out in the mainstream.
CNN legal analyst, Laura Coates, attempted to defend corporate media for ignoring it.
I think it can also be about the idea, you know, the priorities the media have about stories.
Sometimes it's tied to, obviously, what is in the National Zeitgeist.
She said other times it's according to what actually is there to report on.
What is the new information that's going to better inform the population?
Wow!
And of course, here we are in the world where not only do we have different slants for different media, but also you have people who want these silos.
They want echo chambers.
We used to say things like, you're preaching to the choir.
Well, now it's that.
Why aren't you preaching to the choir?
That's all I'm here for.
So you preach, too, as a member of the choir.
Wednesday, CNN finally admitted that the laptop is authentic, 532 days after the initial story broke.
CNN was one of numerous legacy media outlets that dismissed the scandal as Russian disinformation.
At the time the post story went viral, the mayor himself dismissed the allegation and passed off the accusation as something Donald Trump Jr.
would do.
How bad is that?
Joe, your thoughts?
Yeah, well, there's a guy named Jack Maxey, M-A-X-I-E, who's a computer analyst.
He's got a copy of the Hunter Biden hard drive, and he managed to release like 7,000 emails, but now they've discovered that there was some stuff that was encrypted that they were able to open up, so now they've got 22,000 emails.
217 gigabytes of data and he's been releasing that data to the Swiss authorities.
He's got somebody in the Swiss intelligence service that's going through this stuff to make sure that they're not disclosing anything that could get him put in jail for being a spy.
He's been a frequent guest on the Stu Peters Show and also on the Steve Bannon Show and interestingly enough at Gab, Stu Peters put up a post that said that he has been swatted That somebody called the Minneapolis Police Department and said Stu Peters was holding somebody at his house as a hostage with a gun and was going to kill him.
And so the police swatted his house with his wife and children there and they had to witness him being manhandled by the SWAT team and until they realized that they'd had a prank played on him.
So he's he's doing an investigation and prosecution of the people that were involved in doing that.
But that's just how dirty the game is played in this country.
It's obscene that this is what we have to deal with in the way of a democracy.
Yes.
Putting up mildly, Joe.
Putting up mildly.
Meanwhile, Nabholby's exec was fired after suggesting runaway inflation and increased gas prices were good for business.
An Applebuys exec who suggests it has been fired.
Why gas increase is good for hiring Wayne Pankratz told his colleagues.
As inflation continues to climb and gas goes up, more hours employees will need to work to maintain their current level of living.
He's an exec with American Franchise Capital, which owns and manages Taco Bell and Applebee's.
Their annual sales are over 200 mil.
He explained to his colleagues, due to the federal government no longer providing stimulus checks, small businesses having immense difficulty offering workers competitive wages, Applebee's has more potential employees in the hiring pool.
He explained, because of this, other competitors, especially mom-and-pop companies or smaller, will have to either raise prices, cut hours, or pay employees less to lift their profit margins.
Some will not be able to hold on.
This is going to drive more potential employees into the hiring pool, he said.
Most of our employees and potential employee base live paycheck to paycheck.
Any increase in gas cuts into their disposable income.
As employment continues to climb and gas prices go up, that means more hours employees will need to work to maintain their current level of living.
We're no longer competing with the government when it comes to hiring.
Stimulus money is no more.
Supplemental unemployment is no more.
This benefits us.
As prices rise, people who are relying on unemployment simply will have less money to spend, and it will force people back into the workforce.
Saturday, the Post reported that his statements had been leaked to the manager of a Missouri-based Applebee's franchise.
Jake Holicum, the manager in question, printed out copies for servers to find and everyone who came into the restaurant that day for free meals.
I gave everyone in the restaurant their food for free, and we just left.
We didn't even close the store.
Applebee's chief operation officer, Kevin Carroll, said the views expressed were his and his alone.
He shared the opinion of an individual, not of Applebee.
Meanwhile, progressive Oberlin College loses an appeal in court, in the appellate court, and must pay a record 31 mil to a bakery over fake racism accusations.
Progressive Oberlin lost a huge case in appellate court, is forced to pay $31 million to a bakery and falsely accused of carrying out racist actions in a 2016 incident.
Gibson's Bakery, a 135-year-old family business near the campus, was the site of an unfortunate incident.
The owner's son allegedly confronted three black Oberlin students who attempted to shoplift bottles of wine.
One of the suspects, according to the report, assaulted a store employee when confronted about the stolen wine.
The three pled guilty to attempted theft and aggravated trespassing, said in statements required by a plea their actions were wrong and that the store was not brazen.
Following the incident, however, the Oberlin Student Senate passed a resolution claiming the bakery, quote, has a history of racial profiling and discriminatory treatment of students and residents alike, despite any evidence.
The Senate called for students to immediately cease all support, financial and otherwise, at Gibson, called on the president to publicly condemn the bakery.
The bakery launched a lawsuit in 2017, asserting the campaign launched by the small liberal arts college was not only unfounded, but crippled their business.
In 2019, Lorain County Judge John Morality ordered Oberlin to pay the brokery Bakery over 40 million damages.
It was later reduced to 25, plus 6.2 for the bakery's lawyer fees.
The award is the largest defamation verdict in Ohio history.
On Thursday, Ohio's 9th District of Appeals upheld the previous decision and ruled that Oberlin must pay more than 31 mil to Gibson's Bakery.
The active role that Oberlin played in the publication of the Senate Resolution demanded a boycott.
That demanded a boycott of the bakery was cited.
A trial was absolutely clear to the jury as reflected by the verdict.
There was not one shred of truth in the vicious statements about the Gibson that the college caused the devastating harm.
The truth prevailed.
Oberlin issued a statement that the school was obviously disappointed that the appellate court affirmed the judgment in its ruling earlier today.
Joe, your thoughts?
Well, at $60,000 a year to attend that college, a $31 million fine means that they're going to have to have 316 students to pay for just this one particular action.
And the action was so overt on the part of the student government and the campus authorities and was so blatantly overt that, you know, it really is a well-deserved sentence.
And I hope that they're forced to pay it.
I hope that they lose on appeal.
Michael!
Yeah, going back to the Applebee's executive story, I think the comments by that guy, a truth telling guy who got fired for it, I believe, could be generalized onto about 80% of the American population regarding their employees living from check to check and being forced into unemployment with ascending inflation.
And then that I was glad to see I was heartened About that, uh, Oberlin College decision, uh, just the fact that there was a good decision in a, um, in a court case these days.
We just wish we'd have, we'd have run into a principled, uncompromised judge in the Fetzer-Sandy hook cuts.
Oh, I, yeah, I only wish, Michael, I only wish.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you, Sam.

This may be an opportunity that you do not want to miss.
When I would have my first meeting with a class, I'd explain to them if they come to the university to take only one course, This was a course they ought to take because it would make such a difference in the rest of their lives to avoid being played, taken advantage of, to determine when individuals are using fallacious arguments to deceive, mislead, and cheat.
This is something I think you don't want to miss.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Meanwhile, final thoughts, Joe, yours.
Yeah, well, this is definitely an information war that we're involved in, and you don't have to believe Alex Jones, but you really should get a wide variety of sources, particularly stuff that's what they call alternative news media.
Lately, especially on the coverage of Ukraine, Veterans Today has been exemplary in their balanced coverage of what's really going on on the ground.
And then another site that's been consistently good for a really long period of time that I go to on a daily basis is The Conservative Treehouse.
They've got an article that just popped up.
The EU triggers sanctions against Hungary For electing the wrong leader.
Yeah, the existing Premier Orban won in like a landslide against his competitors and he has previously stated that they get 90% of their natural gas and 60% of their petroleum products from Russia and that they're next door neighbors to Ukraine and they know how nasty the Ukraine is and how corrupt it is and all of the crooked things that the Ukraine has been doing
With DARPA and the Bidens, and they know about the 33 weapons labs that are producing dangerous biotoxins right next door to them, and that they were not going to allow NATO flights to land in their country or fly over their country, and he gets reelected, so what does the EU do?
They sanction him!
Yeah, this should be the death of the EU and the death of NATO.
And thank God, Putin, Godspeed for you to be able to defeat these monsters.
I couldn't agree more.
Michael, your thoughts?
Yeah, I didn't hear that story about Viktor Orban, but he is truly one of the real leaders in the world who is actually in it for the welfare of his own people.
Did you guys see that story?
Well, I have two things as a final thought.
One is, do you see that story about 15 women pro tennis players withdrawing from the Miami Open, all of whom had been vaxxed?
Did you see that?
Yes, I did.
What's going on?
Well, the Miami Open is a professional women's tennis tournament, and they had 15 of their players withdraw, some of whom specifically citing chest pain from that tournament before it was finished, including the top two seeds.
You mean they withdrew during the tournament?
During the tournament?
Yes, during play.
Yes.
Wow!
And I just saw a story that, you know how these people make money coming and going?
I mean, the evil empire off of the evil that they do.
The sales of Pfizer's cardiomyopathy drugs, Vendacal and Vendomax, are up a whopping 77%.
And last night during the National NCAA Basketball Championship game, one of the UNC players went down right toward the end of the game.
And as he was going down, he was grabbing his chest.
So and then he was on the floor and he threw up.
So I thought, oh, here we go.
Here's another.
Here's another cardiomyopathy of a young athlete, but they didn't say that, of course.
You know, they took him off the court, and he looked okay after that, and he said that he just got hit in the stomach.
But with the situation being what it is, and all the soccer players, pro soccer players going down in Europe, that's what somebody's going to think.
Now, the second thing I want to do as a final thought is to read a short quote from, there's just a wonderful MEP member of European Parliament, Christine Anderson, from the Alternative for Deutschland Party.
And her quote is, Alexander Solzhenitsyn said that the communist system can be recognized by the leniency exhibited toward criminals, In contrast to the criminalization and legal persecution of their opponents.
And in respect to being called a fringe minority by Trudeau about the truckers, she says, haven't people learned anything about history?
Any resistance to a corrupt regime always starts with a small minority.
Being characterized as a small fringe minority is actually a compliment, because it goes to show that you actually have a brain, and you use it to think for yourself, and that you've come to a conclusion that's different from what the vast majority is being fed.
I applaud those truckers, and I applaud the people who supported them, because this is what a fight for freedom, democracy, and the rule of law actually looks like.
Well, I think you and Joe, Michael, have just given us another sensational Texas Tuesday.
The course begins tomorrow night, and I'm eager to get back into the classroom.
I want to share with you the principles that make a difference in thinking things through.
Joe had it exactly right.
Alex Jones hit the nail on the head.
We're in an information warfare, and I want you to have the weapons you need to combat successfully the avalanche of disinformation and misinformation that's coming your way.
If you have the opportunity, please join us.
Go to mixinstream.com slash critical hyphen thinking dot html if you are so disposed.
