This is Jim Fetzer welcoming you to Need to Know with Joe Olson in Houston, Texas, and Carl Herman in San Ramon, California, where we're here to bring you all the latest, including that U.S.
intel is helping Ukraine kill Russian generals.
This is very, very bad.
You talk about becoming a co-belligerent.
You could not do more to accomplish that than this, and it's being announced on the front page of the New York Times.
The United States has provided intel about Russian units that's allowed Ukrainians to target and kill many Russian generals.
They're claiming as many as 12 on the front line, a number that's astonished military analysts.
Let me give you a comparison.
During the Vietnam War, there was exactly one U.S.
general who died.
It was when his helicopter was shot down.
Ironically, I knew him.
It was Bruno Hochmuth, a major general.
He'd been the commandant of the Marine Corps Recruit Depot when I was there as a series commander with 15 DIs and 300 recruits under my command.
His aide to camp Was a fellow series commander with me, Bob Stark, who would have been on the chopper and killed as well, except he'd been stung the day before by a scorpion.
But in that huge, long contest, we only lost one general.
Now, already in this relatively brief, the Russians have lost 12.
They are not going to let this go unaccounted for.
Intelligence is part of a stepped-up flow of U.S.
intelligence.
It's had a decisive effect on the battlefield, we're being told, confirming targets identified by Ukrainian military and pointing to new targets.
This is a very, very bad development for the West.
Not all the strikes have been carried out with American intel.
One over the weekend in eastern Ukraine, Russia's highest-ranking uniformed officer had visited, but they did not kill him.
This was nevertheless an attempt.
American intelligence was critical in the deaths of the other generals.
Meanwhile, they're going to get us all killed.
The Biden regime helped sink the Russian ship Moscow.
This is, again, absolutely stunning.
And if you did this, the last thing you'd want to do is talk about it.
Then they leaked the news to the New York Times and NBC, who gladly reported it.
On April 11, Ukrainian forces landed two missile strikes on the cruiser Moskva, the flagship of Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
It sank shortly thereafter.
The targeting help, which contributed to the eventual sinking of the ship coming from US intel, is part of a continuing classified effort by the Biden admin to provide real-time battlefield intelligence to Ukraine.
That is clearly co-belligerency.
It's inexcusable.
And here they're talking about it on the front page of the New York Times.
The admin has sought to keep much of the battlefield in maritime until its sharing secret out of fear will be seen as an escalation and provoke President Putin into a wider war.
These people are itching for a war with Russia.
They just might get it.
Meanwhile, at their May Day parade, a Russian doomsday plane was participating.
I think this is a further effort to signal to the West what's going on.
Let's watch.
I think this is a very serious development, but the stupidity of openly providing actionable intelligence, that is absolutely verboten under international law.
That is an act of war.
And the West is not only committing these acts of wars, but bragging about it on the front pages of the nation's newspapers.
Joe, your thoughts?
Well, maybe it's not an act of war, maybe it's an act of propaganda, because I've got other reports that only two generals have been killed, and that the rest of it's fabrication, and they're also claiming that the Aristotle folks are fighting like hell, and they're winning, and blah blah blah.
Meanwhile, if you go to other sources, and I go to a guy named Graham Phillips, who does live on-the-scene reporting, Scott Ritter, who's an absolute expert in all this, a U.S.
former Marine and weapons inspector, and Alex Krasinov, and all of them are giving quite contradictory information to all of this crap that's coming out through our mock-and-burnt media.
And what Alex said this morning was that there was a vehicle under a white flag that left the Asimov, came over and met for several hours with the Russian forces and then went back into the Asimov, so we're expecting that to be over.
But there's also a great segment, and I've put a link to it at Gab, but I will also put it in the comment section here.
About three minutes long of Putin's speech during the May 7th celebration parade in Moscow this morning, and it's really a very well-written speech.
It's very, very patriotic and just enormous number of Russian military on hand to witness that parade.
They're definitely going to beat these SOBs, and these SOBs need to be beaten completely.
It's just A disgusting thing, and we'll get into a lot more elements of this as we go through the program today.
Well, it was a very impressive military parade.
You can see those were highly disciplined troops, and they are well supported by their equipment.
Carl, your thoughts?
Jim, you're absolutely correct.
This is a de facto act of war, if that story is true.
And again, we're in the fog of war, and there's no reliability to the intelligence.
But yet, we at Need to Know News need to point this out.
And the Disparity, the field of what Joe talked about on one hand, could all be propaganda, or if true, the U.S.
is just going ahead and playing around with thermonuclear world war.
As we have discussed, war is a strategy for a political purpose, and the Russians should be asking themselves, if this story is true, what are their most powerful weapons in the political theater?
And we talked about they could go ahead and drop Truth and Facts on 9-11, JFK, Pizzagate, and whatever else.
And the May 9th event has come and gone, and no shots fired yet by the Russians.
So, it's ongoing, fascinating political theater, and with the dire consequences and stakes at play, those of us who are
Participating in this information, the best that I have to offer is just what I model, is to demand the 0.01% arrest for obvious and ongoing crimes censored in these lie-started, Orwellian, illegal wars of aggression, bankster looting in the hundreds of trillions, and constant lying through corporate media and public education.
Carl B. Herman blogspot any of these shows in the context section.
I have abundant evidence to explain, document, and prove those claims.
Excellent, excellent commentaries from you both.
Very serious.
Meanwhile, Russia's ambassador to the U.S.
says NATO is not taking the nuclear war threat seriously enough.
This is also disturbing.
As officials and other influential figures of the U.S.
and allied nations accuse the Kremlin of summoning the specter of nuclear war over NATO's support for Ukraine against Russia, Moscow's ambassador Anatoly Antonov disparaged what he called a flurry of blatant misrepresentation of Russian official statements on our country's nuclear policy.
He's even – it was those in the Western bloc who have proven irresponsible in their handling of what's been described as one of the most dangerous moments since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 60 years ago.
The current generation of NATO politicians clearly does not take the nuclear threat seriously.
Those who feel Russia was fueling the hysteria include top U.S.
military leaders Lloyd Austin, Secretary of Defense Mark Milley, Chairman of Joint Chiefs, who accused Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov of nuclear sable-rattering when he said that the danger is serious, real, and we must not underestimate it.
While U.S.
officials cast Russia as aggressor, Antonov called the accusation baseless and brought up a propaganda campaign launched against Russia.
He then outlined the conditions under which the use of nuclear weapons is possible, including that such weapons of mass destruction can be used in response to weapons of mass destruction against Russia, and this is very important.
In the event of aggression against our country when the very existence of the state is jeopardized.
Anatole believes his Western colleagues mislead the weight of the risk, and that's why Russian officials have never stopped their efforts to reach agreements that will guarantee a catastrophic confrontation will not be unleashed.
He noted the inclusion of the no-winners principle in the joint U.S.-Russia statement adopted after the June 2021 summit between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin.
Even before the outbreak of the war, strategic stability between the nations that hold roughly 90 percent of the world's nuclear arsenal had eroded.
Next month will mark two decades since the U.S.
exited from the anti-ballistical MISTA treaty.
Very, very bad idea.
Only one single yet significant treaty has found Russia in the U.S.
nuclear arsenal since then, the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty.
After disagreements set to allow this accord to collapse as well, Biden heeded Mutin's offer to unconditionally extend it.
Regrettably, however, Washington has unilaterally frozen the Bilateral Strategic Stability Dialogue launched at the Geneva Senate.
Russia is ready to resume the conditions as soon as the U.S.
is ready.
The U.S.
has also developed low-yield warheads for use on submarine-launched ballistic missiles and other efforts.
Ukrainian President Zelensky has denied statements disparaging the 1994 Budapest memorandum constituted a call for developing nuclear weapons.
Russia's actions in Ukraine, which both U.S.
and Ukrainian officials have argued amount to war crimes or even genocide, has stirred a hawkishness in Washington with capitals for a greater NATO role.
This is all very, very bad.
Such rhetoric is accompanied by an unprecedented pumping of Ukraine with modern NATO weapons or even calls to establish a no-fly zone to bring alliance troops into Ukraine under the guise of peacekeepers.
Joe, I see this situation is spinning out of control.
Your thoughts?
Joe, you're on mute.
Joe, we cannot hear you.
Okay.
Yeah, there was a guy that I saw at the Secret Space Conference, a PhD physicist, John Brandenburg, who spoke about nuclear weapons use on Mars.
And he said because of the xenon 128 isotope, that's more than three times the level that we have here on Earth, even after we exploded nuclear bombs, which increased the concentration of it.
He seems to think that Mars had been subject to a nuclear attack and that it covered the whole planet with dust and wiped out their atmosphere.
And because of that, Carl Sagan went, oh, my God, this would cause nuclear winter in the United States.
And that's what caused the first round of ending of the mutually assured destruction nuclear pact that we pretty much entered into up to that point.
And people got really serious about controlling nuclear weapons.
But there's nobody serious about controlling them now.
Obama in 2014 funded a program with one point two billion trillion dollars to develop weapons that could be used as a first strike weapon.
Why in the hell would you want to have a first strike weapon when you know that Russia has six thousand nuclear weapons that they can turn loose?
And once you start this cascading chain of reaction, it's going to be unstoppable.
It's absolutely insane that we live on a planet with this excuse for leadership.
And this is another Obama traitorous act to the United States.
He's going to go down as a very black mark, not just literally, but figuratively in the history of the United States.
Carl, your thoughts?
This is World War Three, ladies and gentlemen, and you better engage because the stakes are higher than you can imagine.
So first, the U.S.
has an official policy for first strike nuclear use against Iran or anybody else.
If they happen to threaten Israel, that's official policy.
And again, Carl B. Herman.
Block spot any of these shows, take a look at the context section, find something that I wrote about Iran, and that documentation will be right in there.
And Russia is right.
You know, as a professional historian, the best academic label that I have to describe the government in the United States is rogue state empire.
That's the best I got.
It's the most accurate.
I'm not insulting them.
But when you constantly violate these treaties for these wars of aggression, that's what you got to call it.
And we have quantified the number of people killed by the U.S.
in these 200-plus armed attacks since World War II.
And the U.N.
is a captured agency.
In the 200-plus armed attacks, the U.S.
has killed somewhere north of 30 million people.
The UN is a captured agency owned and dictated to by the former colonial powers just to go ahead and put a new face on their rogue state empire.
Now these are big claims that I'm making and again Carl B. Herman Blockspot, we in alternative media who practice scholarship.
We promise that we explain, document, and prove every factual claim.
And man, just bring a debate.
One of my best quotes to illustrate this is MIT's Simon Johnson.
Simon is the former chief economist of the IMF or the World Bank, one of those two.
And he wrote a bestseller book called "13 Bankers." He was interviewed by 30 plus Emmy winner, Bill Moyers.
And Simon just laid it out truthfully.
He says, look, all of the facts are on our side.
We have all the facts.
The bankers who are looting trillions, they won't come out and debate us.
And they won't come out because they can't come out.
All we have is the facts.
All they have is the lobbyists and the money to buy them.
Thank you, Carl.
Very good.
Meanwhile, Jim, if I can add one further.
Certainly, Joe.
Right.
The Minister of Defense for Russia said that they could launch enough missiles with one SAMAT to be able to destroy all of the UK, and the UK minister responded that they've got four U.S.
Trident built submarines, and they have Vanguard missiles with multiple warheads.
The warheads are W88, Which are 475 kilotons with 224 warheads per submarine.
So basically, both sides have agreed that they can destroy each other completely, neglecting the fact that they're going to destroy the whole rest of the planet in the process of doing that.
So this level of saber rattling by these idiots is absolutely insane.
And considering the missiles we're talking about are hypersonic, Once this thing starts less than an hour later, every place on Earth is going to be a vaporized war zone.
It's disgusting that they even allowed to talk like this and it's disgusting that people like this have their nuclear football in their hands and their fingers on the triggers.
It's shameful.
Agreed, agreed.
Carl, your further thoughts?
And what Joe was talking about with the evidence of xenon on the southern, all throughout Mars, and if you take a look at Mars, the little southern half has been blasted away by some massive explosion that just happens to be next to a giant asteroid belt.
So this may not be the first time that we've had a planetary extinction event.
via weaponry that have nuclear capabilities, and this goes into the whole exo-politics argument, which, any of these shows, I have done the best that I can to put sources together, and one of the best contributors to scholarship is Jim Mars, late great Jim Mars, who took that very seriously, and my favorite quote of his, he says,
Unless you take a look at that ET angle, there are some areas of this explanation of this global control grid that won't make any sense, but once you take a look at the ET angle, then it makes better clarity for everyone.
I gotta say, I've been skeptical of the ET angle for a very long time.
Meanwhile, Anywar.com publishes five reasons to be increasingly worried about the war in Ukraine by Ted Snyder.
The New York Times reported May 1st that the Biden admin has increasingly cast aside fears expressed by some early on that too much American assistance risks a direct conflict with President Putin.
As direct assistance by the U.S., U.K., and other allies intensifies, there are several reasons to be increasingly concerned.
The long war.
The U.S.
signaled early on the war was not to be a fast to defend Ukraine, but rather That what was going on was bigger than Ukraine, that they want to drag it out.
He's announced the war could last for the rest of the year.
Jake Sullivan, national security for months or even longer.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, measuring it in years.
NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg.
NATO allies are prepared to provide support over a long period of time.
To ensure that long period, the U.S.
and allies seem to be obstructing diplomatic solutions.
In an April 21st interview, the Turkish Foreign Minister accused there are countries within NATO who want the war to continue.
Turkey hosted perhaps the most promising negotiation between Russia and Ukraine.
They seemed to offer the possibility of a breakthrough, but a promise arrived at by Ukraine and Russia seemed to have been diverted by the U.S.
and its allies, who have different interests.
Russia knows.
Russia is now aware a negotiated settlement is fading.
The hopelessness came right at the beginning when Zelensky's early signaling he might be willing to negotiate was bantered by the U.S.
and EU decision to flood Ukraine with arms.
U.S.
lack of participation in and interference with diplomacy has strengthened the awareness of U.S.
intransigence in refusing to speak to Russia.
This is, to my knowledge, unprecedented.
Anton Levin, a senior research fellow at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, He doesn't know if Russia has concluded the U.S.
will be able to block a settlement, but Moscow certainly thinks the U.S.
government will try to do that.
It's now clear U.S.
calculation they could ignore Russia's warnings about crossing a red line was a catastrophic miscalculation.
Nevertheless, the U.S.
seems to be making that same calculation now that the war has begun.
Warnings are again pouring out of Moscow.
In April, Russia sent a formal diplomatic note warning the U.S.
and NATO not to send weapons systems to Ukraine, adding fuel to the conflict there with unpredictable consequences, even more worrisome.
Russia now seems to have reached a point of concluding the U.S.
is fighting not a war to defend Ukraine, but a proxy war against Russia.
On April 28, Putin warned, If someone intends to intervene in the ongoing events from the outside and create strategic threats for Russia that are acceptable to us, they should know that our retaliatory strikes will be lightning fast.
We have all the tools for this.
We will use them if necessary, and I want everyone to know that.
Increasing intervention.
Ukraine is increasingly becoming a proxy for the full military might of the U.S.
and NATO, providing weapons, training, even aiming the guns.
It's fighting a war that holds on to being a proxy, only that's not providing the bodies.
Their direct involvement is becoming increasingly threatening.
The first since the war began.
Troops from a NATO country are on the ground in Ukraine.
Officers in Ukrainian Armed Forces have confirmed British Special Forces were in Ukraine.
Similarly provocative move.
Press Secretary John Kirby announced the U.S.
is training Ukrainian troops in U.S.
military installations in Germany.
Expanded goals.
It's not just the war has grown longer and more direct, it's grown bigger and more ambitious.
British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said the same day NATO and the U.S.
announced the long war, April 28, Russia must be pushed out of the whole of Ukraine, and they are talking about Crimea as well.
The U.S.
has made its clearest statements on evolving and expanding the goals, following a meeting that the U.K.
Secretary and Antony Blinken had with Zelensky, U.S.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin defined America's war goals as wanting to weaken Russia to the degree it can't do the kind of thing it has done in invading Ukraine.
That the U.S.
and allies are involving themselves more and more directly in a war with expanding aggressive goals and an increasingly moving timeline with little hope for negotiation while ignoring Putin's warnings is creasing an increasingly dangerous and worrisome situation that could once again have been avoided.
But I'm telling you, a former senior intel official familiar with this situation said there's been a lot of real-time intelligence shared in terms of things that could be used for specific targeting of Russian forces.
That is belligerency right there.
Have no doubt about it.
This is as serious as it can get, Joe.
Yes, well, first of all, we've done the best that we could to completely litter all of Ukraine with javelins and stingers, and it'd be really difficult for any power to be able to seal their borders well enough to keep those things from coming through.
I'm sure Russia has a bigger problem with fentanyl and drug smuggling and everything else that the United States does, and especially along the war zone border.
So what had been planned for the parade today was going to be a flight of Su-27s flying in the shape of a Z, and they had practiced it and released video of it earlier, but then at the last minute they canceled it.
I'm thinking maybe they got some intel that somebody had been able to sneak a Stinger within range of the Red Square, and that a low-flying, low-speed pass by fighter jets was not advisable at this particular point.
So There's a possibility that happened, but Russia has been playing softball with Ukraine, except that everybody that's been in the war zone said they're playing completely hardball with the troops.
We just had the WALI, W-A-L-I, self-claimed world's greatest sniper from Canada that fled the war zone after a mortar took out all the people that were in his area.
And he said that the Russian war machine is absolutely unrelenting and that we can expect the fall of Domas within probably a week or two and certainly the fall of Asinov, Stal, Steel plant is imminent probably happening today.
So all this crap about Russia losing the war and then also there's another report by Alex Kristanoff about Snake Island and the Ukrainians had released tapes showing their jets taking out facilities there and claiming it was a big victory.
He said that there's a release of RT information He also reported that the Russian weapons were devastating and blowing apart the bodies of his comrades-in-arms.
by the Russians attempting to attack that island and that the overtaking of it failed.
So, you know, there again, fog of war, and we've got the biggest fog machine on the planet telling us what's going on.
He also reported that the Russian weapons were devastating and blowing apart the bodies of his comrades in arms.
Carl, your thoughts?
As a professional historian, I suggest people try this on for size.
So the former imperial countries have banded together.
They cover themselves under the UN.
And the UN is a bogus organization.
It's one legal responsibility is to stop illegal wars of aggression.
And instead, they facilitate it.
And all of this is paid for.
So in order to have an authoritarian empire, which I suggest that Our audience look from and see if the facts match that description is they need to be able to have political control.
They do that via the banking system to create what is used for money as a debt owed back to them.
Therefore, they can buy the minions that they need, including corporate media.
Now, what has happened to that economic control is that Iraq began selling oil for currencies other than dollars.
Saddam, who was a CIA appointed and put into position, Dictator, frontman, puppet for that organization.
When he began selling oil for other currencies, he became a bad man instead of a strong man.
Iran did the same thing, and they've been targeted by propaganda ever since.
Russia has connected the ruble to gold.
Gaddafi wanted to create a currency backed by gold, and he was taken out of power.
And NATO's not-one-inch-toward-Russia promise has been completely reneged by trying to take all of the countries of the former Warsaw Pact, put them into NATO, surround Russia, and the 2014 and 2016 color revolutions killed over 10,000 people in Donbass who refused to accept that NATO empire-imposed control.
So that's the framework and that is the desperation of the stories that we're pointing to of all of the West and the UN and coordinated propaganda to demonize Russia because if they lose Ukraine and the truth gets out, which can happen in a variety of ways where these mercenaries go ahead and talk or film evidence or whatever, this could be the breakthrough to end the war
And so that truth can finally be displayed to the global population.
Devoutly to be wished, Carl.
Meanwhile, here we have the woman who's going to be the disinformation czar for Biden.
She's a total airhead.
Check this out.
There's already this idea, this allegation, that there is anti-conservative bias on the platforms, even though there has been study after study proving, in fact, that often it's liberal voices that are being silenced, particularly minority voices on social media.
...sight of the fact that our own government, and certainly President Trump himself, has dealt in disinformation and normalized disinformation over the past four years to the extent that there is no disincentive for most politicians to traffic in it anymore.
And this, again, as I mentioned at the beginning, should not be a partisan issue.
Democracy isn't possible without authoritative sources of information.
I would love to see a more, a really robust investment in our public broadcasting so that people have an authoritative source of news to go to in order to understand the nuance of situations.
There's a couple of narratives that Russia uses in order to weaken the U.S.-Ukraine relationship.
We see this narrative of Ukraine being a corrupt country coming up over and over again, not only in Russian-language media, but in U.S.
media as well.
We saw this in the lead-up to the 2020 election here in the United States with allegations of corruption by Hunter Biden related to Burisma, and we know those came from Russia.
In Russia, the lines are often blurred.
If you look at things like Fancy Bear and the cyberattacks that happened on the DNC, Those lines aren't as clear.
I think we can confidently say, in this case especially, that it was state-sponsored meddling.
I think the goal, in contrast to Soviet propaganda, is just to inspire distrust, dismay, discontent among Western societies, therefore making it more difficult for Western governments to govern.
I cannot imagine a greater distillation of falsehoods coming from the supposed czar of the Ministry of Truth.
Joe, this is just staggering.
I welcome your thoughts about it.
Isn't it amazing that she mentioned the little bears that were involved in the Russia thing?
What was the one that she directly mentioned?
I don't remember the other ones.
Fancy Bear.
Yeah, Fancy Bear.
There were three different names that they dreamed up over at CrowdStrike to claim that this was Russian-based, and this was the same time that WikiLeaks had released the Fault 7 information on how the CIA Could put foreign fingerprints on virtually everything that was on the web.
So, Fancy Bear and the other bears that they talk about.
I'll put down in the show notes the three because I didn't pull that up in today's comments, but I've got it written down from previous exposés.
The whole thing is an absolute sham, and it looks like Durham has been able to trace this stuff far enough back to be able to indict the leaders of CrowdStrike, which will definitely be stuck with Long prison terms if we have any legitimate judicial system left in this country, but it's pretty disgusting and that woman is just an absolute total sock puppet.
If she wants to accuse me of any disinformation, I challenge her to a It's such a contempt for truth and an insult to the public to put an airhead like this in charge of anything, much less the Ministry of Truth.
Insulting.
the Apollo mission and 911, which Carl's just sent us some new information on WT7 today, we'll put down in the comment section.
It's such a contempt for truth and an insult to the public to put an airhead like this in charge of anything, much less the Ministry of Truth.
Insulting.
Carl, your thoughts?
Yeah, the Minister for Truth who has something going on for Harry Potter's magic wand as So, the Minister of Truth wants an official authoritative source, huh?
Well, Joe has it right.
Let's challenge her to a debate.
That's what I wrote here on this.
Show notes here is that, yeah, let's bring it!
So the one published academic paper that I have published by the Claremont Colleges was to demonstrate the historic U.S.
rogue state empire.
And if you wanted to have a burden of proof where we could document that this bullshit that the Minister of Truth is talking about of There's no deep state.
It's a conspiracy.
Oh yeah, it is.
So we've already talked about the lie-started illegal wars of aggression that the U.S.
leads upon.
I can also, it's a more difficult argument, but we can demonstrate bankster looting in the hundreds of trillions of dollars.
We can demonstrate the corporate media and the public education lies.
All of that is pretty easy to do.
But until we get some sort of a breakthrough, we're just going to be waiting for Durham and needing a breakthrough.
But we'll keep chipping away as best we can.
Indeed.
Unbelievable.
I'd like to see four streets.
There's all red.
Meanwhile, there's all-- Surprise, surprise.
Leadership of this disinformation governance board has ties to George Soros.
There's a surprise for you.
He has his hands in pretty much everything the left does.
It should come as no surprise, therefore, he's tied to the leadership of the New Orwellian Disinformation Governance Board.
The government has no business deciding what is and is not true, much less for purely partisan reason.
Members of Joe Biden's disinformation governance board all have one thing in common.
They are backed by radical leftists.
Disinformation board leader Jennifer Daskal has at least three close ties to liberal billionaire George Soros.
With both of their agendas involving censorship, it's no surprise the two have previously worked together.
Daskal worked as Senior Counterterrorism Counsel for the Anti-Semitic Human Rights Watch Group, which received over $32 million from Soros.
Between 2000 and 2014, he also gave $600,000 to the Just Security blog, where she worked as a founding editor.
To put it into perspective, Just Security claimed the Biden admin is the answer to peace and freedom.
Daskal, however, will be part of the very group responsible for stripping people of their freedom of speech.
The Disinformation Board has been dubbed the Ministry of Truth.
Daskal's past positions, however, suggest he'll play a key role in keeping up a Democrat agenda of keeping Americans blindsided by what's really happening.
Meanwhile, Psaki's replacement has been announced.
Thursday, Biden announced that Karine Jean-Pierre will take Jen Psaki's place as White House secretary when she leaves for MSNBC.
She will be the first black woman and openly homosexual to fill the position.
All right.
Placement.
Deputy Secretary Karen Jean Pascal, former chief of staff to now Vice President Kamala Harris when she was running for president in 2020.
She also worked in the Obama administration and on Obama's 2008 presidential campaign.
Psaki's potential position at MSNBC is not unusual.
Trump's former press secretary, Keeley McEnany, joined Fox as a commentator last year.
Gene Psaki claims representation matters and she, Kareem Jean-Pascal, would give a voice to many but also make many dreams big about what is truly possible.
Here's a photograph of her, first black and first out gay to hold a job.
She is passionate.
She's smart.
She has a moral core that makes her not just a great colleague, but an amazing mom and human, Basaki said.
Plus, she has a great sense of humor.
Oh, May 13th can't come quick enough, man.
in a long time.
She'll be a strong voice, said Biden.
He also lauded Psaki for her work.
Jen Psaki has set the standard for returning decency, respect, and decorum to the White House briefing room.
Her final day will be May 13th.
Joe.
Oh, May 13th can't come quick enough, man.
That clown is one of the worst that we've ever had in the way of a press secretary.
And the one that's replacing her is absolute 100% across the board tokenism because we've got all of the categories We've got black, if that's really a race, female, if that's really a sex, and lesbian, if that's really a preference.
So who knows what the hell's going on?
And to finish up on the point that I've made previously, yes, what happened was with the Russiagate thing, they were already pumping the Peagate novel And trying to use that to discredit Trump and that's when the first WikiLeaks came out.
So immediately they blamed them on a guy that was in jail as a Russian agent and his handle was Guccifer 2.0.
And so, once it was found out that he had been in jail for several months, had no access to a computer, he couldn't possibly have released it.
They went, well, nobody will put two and two together on that, but we can't use Guccifer 2 for the next one.
And when the next dump came, that's when they came out with the Cozy Bear.
And then they decided they couldn't reuse that one, so that's when they came out with the Fancy Bear.
So all three of these supposed covers for release of the PPGate dossier information released by WikiLeaks were proven wrong, and CrowdStrike just fabricated this stuff and put Vault 7 information on it to make It looked like it was foreign intelligence.
We know it wasn't.
And amazingly enough, Trump probably would not have won in 2016 without the information that Assange released.
And now Assange has spent the last six years that Trump could have pardoned him on day one and by all rights should have.
And so he's still he's waiting extradition and most likely be extradited to a maximum security prison for the rest of his life in America.
And he'll die in some Yeah, I don't know why Trump did not pardon Assange and Edward Snowden as well.
we've got for a government. - Yeah, I don't know why Trump did not pardon Assange and Edward Snowden as well.
Carl, your thoughts? - Yeah, those are good questions.
So what we're looking at is an attempt for one-party authoritarian dictatorial control, and Soros is going to attempt to buy anything that he possibly can.
And I think that Soros is just a general of this black money that's in the background.
Our banking system contains the ability of these very rich families, perhaps 13 of them, to be able to create what is used for money and then Allow us, legally, to get credit from them that we pay back to them with interest, and that is going to create an aggregate debt curve that is going to be accelerating in its shape of exponential growth, which is unsustainable, hence the Great Reset.
But about 10 years ago, I asked economist Michael Hudson, who is a leader of pointing out the crimes and economics from the University of Missouri.
I was at dinner with him and I said, So, is there anything that would stop the Fed from creating as many just shadow banks, just fake banks?
And then they could go ahead and enter however many digits into accounts and then they could just use that to buy whatever it is that they would need around the world.
I mean, we would feel it in that inflationary curve.
But nobody would be able to tell where the money was coming from and they could just buy what they want.
And Michael just looked at me hardly and said, nothing would stop that.
So it might be that the inflationary burst that we see now, apart from the normalized inflation, is the desperation of trying to buy what they can And Jen Pisacki, I mean, talk about another academic genius.
Harry Frankfurt, retired professor emeritus, he wrote a 2005 bestseller simply titled On Bullshit.
And anybody who actually observes and witnesses Jen Pisacki, Or John Kirby or any of those other bullshitters.
I mean, if you accept that as rational answers instead of bullshit, then you deserve what you get.
And, you know, I've said it before and I'll say it again, that the best we may be able to do, those of us who are patriots, is just offer choice and be satisfied that that is the best it seems that we're able to do.
And we need some kind of help by a breakthrough.
We do indeed.
Carl, you got it right.
Meanwhile, the Energy Secretary under fire for comments on gas prices.
U.S.
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm continues to make news.
Unfortunately, it's unflattering to the administration.
She was asked whether Pipeline 5 in Michigan makes a positive contribution to the state's economy.
The answer is a little too obvious.
It would be very positive.
So she declined to answer.
It does help the Michigan economy, power industry, and more.
However, it's not stopping Governor Whitmer from suing to dismantle it.
Granholm's time in left-wing politics is extensive.
Years ago, she too was actually the governor of Michigan.
She hasn't been doing the image of the Biden administration any favors since she became Energy Secretary, especially true as it pertains to gas prices.
Time and again, the Biden admin remains in denial about gas prices and its role in getting the prices so high.
Canceling the XL pipeline permits a drill, turning us from energy-independent to energy-dependent again.
Democrats see this as a chance to make the Green New Deal the law of the land.
Meanwhile, pursuing this agenda, admin officials remain deeply disconnected from the American public, as Granholm once again demonstrated.
During a Senate hearing, she was questioned about the last time she paid for gas when she filled up.
She replied that the vehicle she drives is electric.
For some unreason, many who were partaking found this to be funny.
But while electric vehicles are a favorite topic these days, almost everyone's announced plans to build and sell them.
There are six problems nobody talks about.
It's over a century old in concept, but the technology is in development as we speak.
There are a few models you can buy today.
Unlike internal combustion engines, which have surpassed electric back in the day because of deficient battery technology at the time, there's a long way to go concerning electric vehicle powertrain development.
Electric engines are smaller, more compact, more efficient than existing and even theoretical internal combustion units.
While the batteries are getting better and better, the problem is people do not like waiting.
It takes a while, typically hours, to charge an electric car, not to mention buying trips.
People want electric cars today, and they want them to be at least as great as conventional and as easy to use.
These requirements are entirely reasonable from someone asked to pay installments for a few years for an asset that might have a sharp depreciation curve.
Unless automakers commit to updating existing electric vehicles they've sold within reasonable units, Limits, EVs found on the market today will be obsolete in less than 10 years.
The level of obsolescence, moreover, will far exceed that of conventional vehicles, because batteries should become exquisite in 2026, while charging times should also drastically reduce.
The resale of such an automobile could become a significant burden for those who own them, however.
If anyone would ever want to buy a 10-year-old electric vehicle.
Imagine buying a palm tray phone from 2006, which was considered a smartphone at the time.
Most conventional cars are built with parts sourced from factories that make them, but automakers open facilities in other continents to cater to the needs of different markets at lower costs.
It wasn't still as cheaper to build cars on one continent and sell them exclusively in the respective market than to use a single facility.
The situation changes only for exclusive brands.
As we wrote, electric vehicles need precious metals.
At first, hybrids used NE-MH batteries.
But competitive electronics rely on Li-ion technology.
The expensive part is called lithium, and it's getting more and more expensive this day.
Where does it come from?
According to a 2015 survey, Australia is the world's biggest supplier of lithium, followed by Chile, Argentina, China, and Zimbabwe.
Just like oil, lithium is a finite resource, except actually oil is not, and it's becoming more expensive because of demands made by automakers.
Until something better comes along, lithium could become extremely costly.
The problem with electric vehicles is lithium is not the only rare metal used.
Other rare metals like dysprosium, lanthanum, neobinium, and fazedimium are also used.
For exemplification purposes, the electric martyr needs neodymium and praseodymium as a touch of dysprovia.
The old batteries in the NIHM hybrid cars required lanthanum, but the new ones still need some of these precious rare earth metals.
Their mining conditions are not optimal.
Their demand hurts the environment.
Massive strip mining taking place, among others.
The first Prius is now almost 20 years old.
Its batteries have surely not been in service for that long.
They must have been replaced.
The advent of electric cars will follow the predictions announced by automakers.
If they do, we'll have a lot of lithium-ion batteries to recycle in 2045.
That's not a typo.
It comes 20 years after the predicted boom of electric vehicles supposed to happen in 2025.
I doubt it.
Well, lithium-ion batteries can be recycled, so can NiMH ones.
We do not have a massive market for those that recycle lithium-based batteries.
A few companies exist, but no one has stepped out and said, hey, we'll take care of those batteries.
We're good for it.
When we find that lithium recycling facilities do not exist at the scale required when all those electric cars will be parted out and meet the crusher, we understand why.
The world does not have a market for electric cars yet, and the conventional ones do not get recycled properly in the first place.
So don't throw that stone just yet, Joe.
Right up your alley.
Yes, Jim and I did a great hour-long program on this.
It's the Anthropovic Global Warming Series 8 on electric vehicles, the hydrogen fuel hoax, liquefied natural gas, and gas-to-liquid conversion of natural gas directly to 100% pure gasoline.
But those technologies are, you know, contradictory.
So, the original Priuses had a nickel-methyl-hydride battery, and those were also not recyclable, but it only costs $8,000 because it wasn't intended to be a full-range vehicle, and they expected to have a 10-year service life over which you could expect to save about $8,000 on gasoline.
So, it's like walking up the down escalator.
You're not going anywhere.
You're saving $8,000 in gasoline costs over a 10-year period to buy an $8,000 battery, so you can save $8,000 over the next 10-year period.
The Teslas are even worse.
Their batteries are built as part of the floor pan of the car, so it takes complete disassembly of the bottom edge of the car, and replacement costs on them are over $20,000, except that Tesla has no dealers with a parts network, and so you can't actually go to a Tesla dealer and get service done and get parts replaced.
So that's why there's a huge theft of Tesla's to replace body panels from chop shops and also to replace the batteries and then it just becomes the point where it's impractical to put that amount of money into a vehicle that is going to have that same problem within the next five or ten years.
So bottom line is this whole thing has been an absolute joke on people that are just stupid enough to believe it.
And with an endless supply of oil and with cheap gas abundant, I mean, it's just about as dumb as it gets to destroy the economy for the sake of an illusion, a Green New Deal.
Carl, your thoughts?
Yeah, unless it's the point to destroy the economy and then they're taking every action that they can invent in those twisted, dark minds.
The first story with a Michigan official refusing to answer a direct question.
That's what I'm talking about!
That's the type of bullshit that has been normalized and will continue until Americans demand arrests of these corrupt officials for their lies.
Refusing to answer a question is a lie of omission.
This is similar to my own as a professional educator being placed on forced paid leave for challenging my school district's health orders.
They refused to answer any questions.
And when I finally pushed them enough, they did give me two answers.
And the two answers are just bullshit on this face.
And they say, OK, all these orders, students and staff have to follow them because just follow orders.
And two, anything that we do, including if you refuse these forced medical products, putting you on forced unpaid leave and segregating students, that is for your broader rights.
And that's why they don't answer questions, because they can't.
The only thing that they can throw at you is bullshit, and that sounds even worse.
For energy breakthroughs, I'm sure that that has been thoroughly suppressed.
I remember as a teenager hearing the story on the news, watching the news, of Stan Meyer developing a dune buggy in San Diego that ran on water.
And I would watch the television news shows with officials from San Diego State and UC San Diego checking it out and verifying and saying on the news, yeah, it's an engine, it runs on water, and it gets 100 miles per gallon.
And Stan Meyer drove the dune buggy in one of the summers from San Diego to Washington, D.C.
And I saw this in the LA Times, and it said that the military was very interested in this invention, but shortly thereafter, the inventor was poisoned and killed, his garage was looted, and that was that.
So, the arrest of these psychopaths, of course, would unleash all of this suppressed technology, and unleash our brightest minds to create more breakthroughs in those areas.
And speaking of brightest minds in the energy sector, here's a little bit of background on Jennifer Granholm.
She got a BA from Berkeley in Political Science in 1984, and then she got a Harvard Law degree, and then she served as Attorney General for Michigan prior to being elected as Governor of Michigan.
And I don't see any level of energy industry expertise Yeah, I think that's exactly right.
It's just ridiculous what's going on here.
career in her whole entire life.
So the bottom line is she's in there to be a sock puppet and a face for an agency that is rogue as any other three-letter agency in the United States.
Yeah, I think that's exactly right.
It's just ridiculous what's going on here, putting completely incompetent people into these very important positions.
Now we finally know why Biden's using a fake White House stage.
It's rather disconcerting.
The revelation comes as part of a political report.
The outlet points out an intricate scenario in which both Biden and the former President Trump... I've got to take this now.
Stand by.
Stand by.
Turns out that there's concern here about what's going to happen with Biden becoming a lame dog.
How's he going to overcome?
He'll be on election day in 24, 24 and be just shy of 82.
Tuck away in the report is a note about Biden and why he's using a fake White House set for certain events.
Look at the fake set.
You can see the reporters there.
What in the world is going on?
It's in the eyes of our executive branch.
Politico discusses Democrats who privately worry the president couldn't handle another campaign.
They add the necessary for him to use the easily read teleprompter.
The White House, Shelby Talcott tweets, has rearranged the South Court auditorium stage, blocking off a large portion of it and subsequently making it impossible for reporters to even see Biden, who is currently speaking.
Here you can see the teleprompter.
They can't do this in the Oval Office because it can't be permanently equipped with a monster like this.
My name's Whiffer, the fake White House stage built in the old Executive Office building, sacrificing some of the power of the historical backdrop in favor of an otherwise sterile room outfitted with an easily read teleprompter screen.
The teleprompter has become a crucial part of the Biden presidency because he struggles to put his thoughts together when he goes off script.
So now we know why.
The set even features windows with projected images of the Rose Garden to lend authenticity.
The fake digital window screens on Biden's artificial White House set and the executive office building are playing footage of snow falling at the White House.
The set, it also uses other high-ranking, used by other high-ranking admin officials for various events.
Fox News reports that in addition to Biden and the UN, Secretary of State and Secretary of the Treasury have been photographed using the set.
Do they need exorbitantly large teleprompter screens as well?
Sticking to the script, it appears there's a reason behind the fake White House stage built next door.
Pretty disconcerting.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yeah, well, it's amazing to say that they don't know if he could handle a campaign in 2024 when he didn't handle a campaign in 2020, hidden in his basement the whole time.
Walk outside where they had a couple of hula hoops full of people that could Stand there and listen to him and a crowd of 50 reporters and that was it.
The guy's an absolute clown, but they're walking back something really big today.
Here's a tweet from Posaki and she says that POTUS strongly believes in the constitutional right of protest, but should never include violence, threats or vandalism.
Judges perform an incredibly important function in our society, and they must be able to do their jobs without concern for personal safety.
Maybe they're getting a little bit of feedback on number one, that abortion is not a 50% winner in opinion polls nationwide, and number two, that intimidation of judges is not only illegal and not being prosecuted by the DOJ, Fascinating.
it's also something that's not very popular with the branches of society that still think we should have three separate equal and well-protected branches of government.
So bottom line, the executives declared word on the judiciary and the public is not real happy with it.
Fascinating.
Carl, your thoughts?
The actor playing Biden is just a puppet and a script reader, and he is an actor.
All you need to do is take a look at the earlobes of the historic Biden having dangly earlobes, and this new guy having attached earlobes.
That's not physically possible without having two different people.
But the show that we're being...
Show has this guy who is now so mentally incapable, he's not capable of spontaneous discussion of actual issues.
And again, this goes to the theme of bullshit of you're only going to give talking point to the talking points to be most effective need to be rehearsed because it is bullshit.
You need to put this stuff together.
packaged and then you need to test these talking points on audiences to see what sells and what doesn't.
Now, the idea that you can't put some sort of, that the reason it's in the Eisenhower building, which is a beautiful building, and not the White House Oval Office, that's bullshit.
You need a screen and the device in order to scroll a script is easy.
So on its face, this is a lie, but fog of war, what else is new?
And they just want you to be able to, they're, they're telling us the story.
I don't know why, but it's a bullshit story.
And Biden is just a script reader, bullshitter.
Carl, nice points.
Very.
Meanwhile, Supreme Court abortion decision may not hurt Republicans after all.
In the immediate aftermath of the leaked report, Political pundits pose this could hurt Republicans at the poll in the midterm.
I am among them.
According to recent polls, this leaked report, however, may not wind up hurting the GOP's chances at taking back full control of Congress.
Democrats are trying to make abortion a central issue for 2022.
Looking for anything that might help their already significantly damaged chances.
I've scrolled back on this basis, by the way, from predicting that the GOP will take 100 House seats to suggesting maybe only 50, and instead of three to four Senate seats, maybe one or two.
Most have speculated that taking away abortion protection would hurt Republicans, but a recent Gallup poll suggests it's actually not a major issue for most Americans.
Every year, Gallup conducts a poll.
Typically, the last figures Gallup had for May of 2021 show Americans are fairly evenly split down the middle.
The poll revealed 49% of Americans call themselves pro-choice, 47% pro-life.
48% believe abortion should be legal only in certain situations, though they weren't clearly defined by the poll.
Another 32% legal for any situation.
19% saying it should be illegal in all situations.
Only 2% not having an opinion.
What's more significant in relation to the poll is less than 1% who responded indicated abortion was the most important problem facing the country today.
Instead, 22% believe government poor leadership is the top issue, followed by 17% saying the high cost of living inflation is the top issue, and 11% saying the general economy is the top issue.
In other words, Democrats are making a lot of noise over the abortion issue, but it doesn't remain a top political concern for most Americans.
Even if the court were now to overturn Roe, it may not have a significant impact on the November elections.
All this stems from Politico publishing a leaked majority opinion written by Supreme Court Associate Justice Samuel Alito.
The media said a person familiar with the Courts of Deliberations said Alito was joined by Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, and Clarence Thomas, making a 5-4 vote that would overturn Roe.
A new poll, however, shows a majority of voters don't think Biden should even run again in 24, and that in a rematch with former Trump, he would lose by double-digit margins.
No doubt about it.
That would happen.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yes, well, if we really were concerned about having a population problem, Then we should offer free vasectomies and free tubular ligatations because that would solve the problem.
Then people could have all the sex they wanted without Uh, causing pregnancy, they'd still be able to transmit all the STDs they wanted.
So, uh, bottom line is this is a really spurless issue to be at this particular timetable.
And you gotta wonder why the Supreme Court chose to put this on the docket for their their June hearings.
And there's a lot of speculation.
One of them, I think, is probably carries some weight from Jim Stone.
Is that because the vaccines that they're giving contain birth control elements in them that we're going to have enormous amount of sterility among men and women who've been jabbed and there's going to be a noticeable reduction in Planned Parenthood usage anyway.
So why not go ahead and make this an issue and say only half the states can have Planned Parenthood and then you can keep at least a certain skeletal number of those operations going Uh, and hopefully camouflage the fact that the vaccines having this other side effect that we have well documented proof of.
Carl, your thoughts?
The timing of this is to distract in another division to conquer.
They want distraction away from the Ukrainian war, from the election fraud and Dementia Joe.
So my recommendation is don't play with these psychopaths and to demand their arrest and then let's have whatever conversations we need outside of their control and limitations and with the debates possible for the best possible medical responses and choices.
The leaders who are pushing this dialogue to have us fight with each other, these people, again, they've killed approximately 30 million since World War II and the U.S.
lie started aggression and invasions and U.S.
military incursions on foreign soil.
They've killed about 400 million from preventable poverty.
This is intentional and ongoing policy that the U.S.
and the former colonial leaders have promised to end global poverty through basic solutions for economic needs to be provided for everybody.
Which is really basic stuff like food and water, and then towards sustainable solutions.
I was a, through results.org, was a voice to help create two UN Summits for Heads of State, the 1990 World Summit for Children and the 1997 Microcredit Summit.
And these global leaders, they know that they can save approximately a million children's lives every month from preventable poverty, and they promise everything and they have since 1969.
And then do nothing.
So these people are psychopaths, demand their arrests, don't play their games.
Nice.
Very nice.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you.
Send fan mail, Broercon, to liveneedtoknowatgmail.com.
Live need to know at gmail.com.
Here's from Mar-a-Lago.
I like Highlights Magazine as a kid doing the puzzles.
I think you should look closely here.
You can see an interesting shape, left side, inside suit coat pocket.
We have really good tests for focusing things.
We can all use a better focus.
And of course, this is Kyle Rittenhouse at Mar-a-Lago.
And I think he's implying that Kyle is packing.
I'm not sure about that, but I think that's the implication.
Remember, 1% control the world, 4% are their prophets, 9% are asleep.
5% know and try to wake the 90%.
The 1% use the 4% to prevent the 5% from waking up the 90%.
Final thoughts.
use the 4% to prevent the 5% from waking up the 90%.
Final thoughts.
Joe, yours.
JOE DUNN: Yes.
Yes.
Well, in 1954, Eisenhower approved the 5412 Commission, which was a CIA branch that's run by Majestic 12, also known as MJ12.
Well, in 1954, Eisenhower approved the 5412 Commission, which was a CIA branch that's run by Majestic 12, also known as MJ12.
And this gave the MJ12 group the authority to assassinate anybody in the world that was a thought or world leader, political leader, with just approval from the VP so the president could maintain plausible deniability.
Carl sent a great little thing this morning and I'll put it in the links below.
You can digest as much of this as you want, but basically it has to do with possible UFO presence and alien intervention on our planet.
It's called TheWebMatrix.net.
And then also Vernon Coleman, the old man, a chair doctor in England, had a great 15-minute video on the sudden rise of hepatitis.
And he goes into the fact that the CDC started requiring infant hepatitis shots within moments of birth and back in 1997.
And now we're having this horrible epidemic of hepatitis.
And then our good friend Del Bigtree had an article on the vaccine-derived polio is on the rise.
And so what they've done is they've developed a new polio vaccine to prevent the polio that's caused from the polio vaccine.
You can't make this shit up, folks.
You got it right, Joe.
It's unbelievable.
Carl, your final thoughts?
Well, ongoing, just a paradox for people to feel comfortable in the enormous fear generated by these potential events that could cause widespread, that already is causing widespread suffering, death, poverty, debt, And to be able to recognize that we're very small little pieces on this big game board.
So, engage to the degree that your soul demands that you do so for your intellectual integrity and for your morality.
And at the same time know that there are broader streams in effect, and man, you just have to be able to trust whatever is going to develop, whatever you reference that by as biological, spiritual, whatever, continue to do the best you can and continue to maintain as much peace and self-expression for virtue as you can.
Well, Joe Olson in Houston, Carl Herman in San Ramon, California have done another spectacular job of keeping us abreast of current developments, even correcting or adding to the latest reports with information they'd independently acquired.
That's what we're here for, to keep you informed of what's going on.
Would we could have a more positive message, but it appears the leaders of the West are hell-bent on having a nuclear war with Russia.
The latest report of Russia declaring they could wipe out NATO in about 30 minutes time.
But, as the UK minister explained, they have Trident missiles that would not be vulnerable to a Russian attack.
They could do the job all by themselves.
It's dismal times when the leaders of once great nations turn out to act like complete and utter morons to bring about the death and destruction of the very people they claim to represent.
It's a sad commentary on where we stand today.
On a cheerful note, nuclear annihilation may actually be preferable given that it's instantaneous to gradual starvation because it appears as many as 20 food processing plants have been wiped out.
It's clearly deliberate.
They're trying to arrange for mass starvation on a scale never before seen in world history.
Wish we could be more cheerful, but we're telling you what you need to know.
Back tomorrow with more of the information on that score.
Meanwhile, spend as much time as you can with your friends, your loved ones, because in all candor, we do not know how much time we have left.
