Time Text
So you get public school or homeschool?
This is Jim Fetzer, Madison, Wisconsin, joined today by Joel Olson from Houston, Texas, and Virginia Young from Woodland, also Texas.
We're here to bring you all the news you need to know.
We begin with warning Macron, the president of France, of a large-scale catastrophe in the waking at the Zaporizhia nuclear plant, which is being shelled by the Ukrainians.
After the call Friday, their first in three months, the Kremlin issued a statement reiterating the Russian offer to provide security for the International Atomic Energy Agency to send inspectors and to confirm who was shelling the facility.
This is the largest nuclear energy plant in Europe.
Putin emphasized this could cause a large-scale catastrophe that inspectors ought to visit the plant as soon as possible.
Here you see a photograph of this power plant.
While Ukraine asserts that Russian forces are attacking, Moscow has controlled the plant and surrounding area since March, giving it no good reason to risk a nuclear incident that would imperil ethnic Russians under its protection.
While Russia controls a plant, it's still run by Ukrainian operators.
Russia, moreover, has voiced ever greater concern, calling for independent inspectors to review the evidence to prove who is responsible for the attacks.
Indeed, it appears that the Ukrainians are using U.S.-provided M-777 howitzers to attack the plant.
Ukraine's Energoatom state nuclear company claims Moscow plans to switch off the functioning power blocks at the plant, cut it off from Ukraine's power grid, and reconnect to the Russian grid.
However, that would be a technically difficult process where the Russian military is looking for diesel to keep the nuclear fuel cooling system working once the external power supply is cut.
While there are backup diesel generators, it remains unclear if they would be sufficient.
Reuters adds, if cooling systems fail, the nuclear reaction would slow, but the reactor would heat up very swiftly.
At such high temperatures, hydrogen could be released from the zirconian cladding and the reactor could start to melt down.
We're talking about a Chernobyl-type disaster.
Moscow has defended its military presence with Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov stating the troops are there to prevent a disastrous Chernobyl scenario.
NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg has declared Russia is using the ground around the nuclear power plant as a staging area As a platform to launch artillery attacks on Ukraine forces, which is ridiculous beyond belief, and shows the NATO Secretary General is willing to lie to the world about what's going on there to promote the interests of NATO.
Russia alleges Washington and Kiev plan to trigger an accident from the threat of overheating that Kiev forces are being deployed to hit the plant with artillery strikes.
NATO's defense minister, Ukraine's, says the Russians are planning a large-scale terrorist attack in planet Pentagon Kiev.
But they wouldn't have to plant it on Kiev.
Kiev is shelling the nuclear power plant.
Russia is seeking to protect it.
Some residents have begun to flee to neighboring European countries, although only women and children are being allowed to leave.
Kiev has banned men aged 18 to 60 from leaving the country, being conscripted to keep the war going.
While Russia has rejected a U.N.
proposal for the plant to be demilitarized, Ruff Gagnon, coordinator for the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space, sent a letter to U.N.
Secretary General condemning Kiev for the dire situation.
In part, the letter reads, I have been following this dangerous situation for many weeks.
It is abundantly obvious to me the US-installed Kiev government is doing the shelling.
Why would Russia want to contaminate the very region of Russian ethnic citizens it's attempting to save from this out-of-control Kiev regime?
The fact that the Ukrainian plant personnel remain on their posts, that Russia is trying to protect the plant from disaster, indicates Russia's good intentions.
I urge your office to get IAEA to the plant ASAP and publicly pin the blame for the shelling on the appropriate source, the Kiev regime that's clearly taking their marching orders from Washington, D.C.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yes, well, loss of cooling is going to cause the exact same situation that happened in Fukushima.
It'll be an absolute meltdown, even worse than Chernobyl in this particular case.
The plant was built by the Russians in the mid-80s, and it's a 5700 megawatt plant, so it's pretty big.
Like I say, it's in the top 10 of nuclear power plants worldwide as far as power, and the largest in Europe.
So that's a major resource, and it's also a major headache if the thing happens to go down.
So, in addition to shelling the plant, they've also apparently snuck in and poisoned either the water or some of the food supply.
I like the story mentioned, they have Ukrainian workers in the plant, but there's been a poisoning of the soldiers with a substance called botulinum, B-O-T-U-L-I-N-U-M, but there's been a poisoning of the soldiers with a substance called botulinum, B-O-T-U-L-I-N-U-M, type B, which is a So, in addition, they've had a lot of Russian soldiers get sick from that.
So, you know, these people are playing a really dangerous and dirty game.
And in addition to that, evidence has come out that the explosions that were heard at the Russian air base on Crimea were U.S.
missiles that were used in an M270 launcher, and you can take the launch tubes out.
There's a cluster of six tubes that you could take out and put in a larger size missile, and so instead of using the HIMARS that they were using, which are, you know, 40 mile range, they were able to replace those with ATCAMS, A-T-A-C-M-S, which have a
Altitude of 50 kilometers, a range of 190 miles, and they travel at Mach 3, which is why they were able to hit those Russian air bases without having any missile trails coming down, and you wouldn't be able to detect any noise because the sonic boom would happen about the same time as the explosion on the ground.
And they knocked out 13 airplanes.
And if you do like every other plane, it would take about four missiles to do that.
And there's four holes that they said could not have been done by terrorists because it would take 500 pounds of C-4 in order to blow a crater big enough to cause the damage that happened at that airfield.
So Russia has that to deal with, along with the sabotage car bombing that happened in Moscow.
So, yeah, we're dealing with some of the worst elements on the planet.
And they're just using Ukraine as a dirty front for the same kind of dirty tricks that they've Forever.
It's disgusting that our government is so heavily involved in doing things so evil.
And we may pay a high price for that involvement, Virginia.
Yeah, and I've lost track of what's the total count now of the money that we've sent over there.
So, yeah, like you said, disgusting.
But what jumps out at me, I'm not surprised that we're having issues with nuclear power plants.
If you look at acute radiation syndrome, And you look at Chernobyl, identical, just a basic list of acute radiation syndrome, depending on dose and length, or Fukushima, for that matter, as Joe mentioned, you'll find a prodromal phase, which is nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and the fatigue is lassitude.
When they use terms like nausea and vomiting, we just kind of think of our basic You know, we don't feel well.
And whatever our experience is, is what we're holding in our mind.
So, difficulty breathing.
Well, difficulty breathing is a little more than that.
It's not just like a minor asthma attack or a chest cold.
It's granulation in the lungs that they actually see.
And depending on the person, you would have Extreme fatigue, which would be called lassitude.
That's a better word to use, because we say fatigue, and we think of a long, hard day.
No, it's you cannot get out of bed.
That's seen in Fukushima, Chernobyl, and ARS, which can be any number of things, such as radiation treatment for cancer.
And there's a laundry list of symptoms, ironically, that are all alike, right?
And all these symptoms, such as the muscle aches, and the coughs, and the shortness of breath, and whether or not you have a fever, oh, and the loss of smell or taste that goes along with it, and the hair loss, bloody stools, bloody vomiting, etc.
These are extreme symptoms.
Oh, by the way, what do they sound like?
COVID.
And it's also the same thing that people have seen and witnessed and experienced when they have worked on 5G towers.
I just don't think that's coincidence.
And I'm not surprised that we would have a nuclear crisis right now.
But that's just one take.
And it's just a matter of fleecing our country and others and putting us in the midst of this.
And we are paying heavily.
They're paying heavily.
And I do believe and all it's going to take is for the Ukraine to I don't know how many bullets or what the artillery it would be, but I know that our troops have worked with Ukrainian troops for some time now.
I know they've been working with them, and here we are at this standoff.
I'm not surprised one bit.
I think it's more the smoke and mirrors.
Nice, nice commentary, Virginia.
Meanwhile, the endgame is out in the open.
A radiation leak from the Ukrainian nuclear plant will trigger NATO Article 5.
Editor's note, Among the most important points made by Hal Turner occur in his commentary toward the end specifically.
Ukraine is using Western-supplied weapons to attack a nuclear power plant inside their own country.
And the West says that if there's a radiation leak from the plant, that will automatically trigger NATO Article 5 collective self-defense.
Well, no, it won't.
Ukraine is not a member of NATO.
Worse, it's Ukraine attacking the nuclear power plant.
So, if a radiation leak occurs, it will have been Ukraine that caused it, not Russia.
And it will have been the U.S.
and NATO who facilitated it by arming Ukraine.
Does NATO plan on invoking Article 5 to attack itself?
Because if a radiation leak happens, it's 99% the fault of the U.S.-NATO.
They're supplying Ukraine with the weapons being used to target the nuclear power plant.
But don't be surprised if they claim a radiation leak triggers Article 5 even though it should not.
And don't be surprised when Russia cleans their clock.
They are prepared for this.
We are not.
Nuclear war with Russia now seems to be a deliberate planned action by the West, writes Hal Turner.
And this weekend, elected members of two of the most influential Western governments tipped their hand.
As most readers are aware, much has been mad at the Zaporozhian nuclear power plant in Ukraine, taken over by Russia very early in their special military operation to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine.
The reason Russia to control early is that if there were radiation leak, local prevailing winds would not only create a deadly threat to Russian troops in Ukraine, but could also carry radiation into Russia.
As one might anticipate, Russia does not want either of these outcomes.
Russia, being a superpower against Ukraine, stands no chance, took control of the plant, continues allowing Ukraine to run it, and all was well until about two weeks ago, when Ukraine began firing artillery toward the plant.
Ukraine claims Russia has troops at the plant and the troops are carrying out attacks against Ukraine.
Russia denies carrying out any such attacks, demands Ukraine cease firing artillery at the plant, but Ukraine has not stopped.
More recently, Ukraine blames its Russia firing at its own people in the plant, creating a false-like excuse to use tactical nukes against Ukraine.
Russia has repeatedly and publicly decried the shelling of the planet and warned the consequences.
They've raided the issue with the U.N.
Security Council and asked the International Atomic Energy Agency to come immediately.
The U.N.
Security Council did nothing.
The IAEA responded, saying, someone may be in September.
Maybe in September.
Hal Turner Radio Show has been warning for almost two weeks that if Ukraine hits a sensitive area, it could cause a reactor meltdown and explosion, sending plumes of radiation into the atmosphere into Europe and creating a catastrophe.
We also reported prevailing winds would carry the radiation to the United States within about 10 days, cover the entire country about four days later.
We even published a scientific model showing where local prevailing winds would carry the radiation within Europe.
If a leak were to take place between August 11th and 15th, the model appears below.
The lack of response by the UN Security Council and by IAEA is confounding.
It makes no sense for a rational thinking person unless it is deliberate.
We now seem to have the answer.
Tobias Elwood, an MP in the British Parliament, said any deliberate damage to the Ukrainian nuclear reactor with a possible radiation leak would be a violation of NATO Article 5.
A similar statement from Adam Kinzinger, member of the House of Representatives.
A radiation leak that will kill people in NATO countries will automatically trigger Article 5.
Now you know why.
Just a month ago, New York City Office of Emergency Management issued a public service announcement teaching New York City residents what to do if a nuclear bomb detonated in the city.
Their instructions were ridiculous.
Go inside, wash yourself out, and listen to the radio.
But there might be no building to go inside.
Water won't be running, and there won't be any communication to listen to.
Similarly, in New Jersey, shopping malls.
Is because they planned this outcome all along.
Even now, as you read it, it's going to kick the whole thing off as Ukrainian finding artillery shell into the right point in the plan, and everything from that point on, it's on autopilot.
The artillery blast hits, causes a leak, NATO blames Russia, invokes Article 5, Russia faces an existential threat and unleashes its nukes.
Each side goes all in.
Now the plan is out for all to see, adds Hal Turner.
The West has supplied Ukraine with advanced and longer-range weapons to use.
It is the West which has imposed economic sanctions on Russia, far worse than those Congress imposed on Japan prior to World War II.
Every step taken by the U.S.
and NATO has been designed to escalate the fighting.
Ukraine is using Western-supplied weapons to attack a nuclear power plant.
If there's a radiation leak, that will trigger Article 5.
As observed before, it wouldn't.
Really, it shouldn't.
After all, Ukraine is not a member of NATO.
Moreover, it's Ukraine attacking the power plant.
So if a radiation leak were to occur, it would have been Ukraine causing it, not Russia.
And it will have been the U.S.
and NATO who facilitated it by arming Ukraine.
Does NATO plan to invoke Article 5 to attack itself?
Because a radiation leak would be 99% the fault of the US and NATO.
Of course, even the most braindead can see NATO won't attack itself.
They'll just use it as an excuse to go to war against Russia.
This is a massive fraud by the West, which is likely to succeed.
Russia made free from the start.
Any outside interference will suffer consequences like never before seen in history.
Russia made very plain what it meant.
Russian conventional forces do not compare with NATO.
We know that.
But Russia is also a nuclear power, and our ability is superior to NATO.
If NATO invokes Article 5, it will be a war that no one will win.
As most common folk know from childhood, the only war no one will win is a nuclear.
Russia laid its ships on the table back in February.
They warned everyone not to interfere.
The U.S.
and NATO, however, have done everything they can to interfere to escalate the fighting and to harm Russia.
Now the U.S.
and NATO are telling Ukraine to fire those shells at the power plant, clearly with the intent of causing a radiation leak that can be used as an excuse to invoke Article 5 and go to war with Russia, the outcome of which we are not going to like.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yes, well, Virginia mentioned that she didn't know how much aid the United States has sent to Ukraine.
This is Washington Post today.
To date, the U.S.
has provided $10.6 billion in military aid to Ukraine.
But tomorrow, we're going to give them an extra $3 billion.
And as far as who will win, they have a great system of underground bunkers connecting a lot of the major cities.
They're called deep underground military bases, DUMs.
And the.
They're free.
Yeah.
Usually it comes back momentarily.
Virginia, would you like to comment?
Okay, sure.
Well, the surface conditions.
Oh, there he is.
Go ahead, Joe.
Oh, I love that.
Yeah, okay.
While the surface conditions that they create are gradually reduced, so after they exterminate us with every means possible, then they'll be able to pull this off before the November election, and then they'll be able to declare that all of Republicans are national terrorists.
So they can just go ahead and jail or execute any of those that they want.
And so bottom line is we'll end up with the perfect Soviet state when this is all over with, because it'll be nothing but the Bolsheviks that have put us in this situation that'll be left in the underground bunkers to come up and repopulate the planet.
It's demonic beyond imagination.
Virginia.
Well, and all I was going to add, I was saying I was a few billion behind, so I knew I was probably a few billion behind.
I was in the seven plus three, 10, so we're going to the 13 to 14.
Yeah, well what I was gonna say is well there go the elections, I mean, we've been.
This is clearly planned.
And they're going to reap the benefits of their agenda in many ways.
Okay, elections, as far as I'm concerned, we've been in World War Three, we're in it.
Some could argue World War Two just kind of kept on going when you look at all of the CIA and what they've done.
So, yeah, I don't have much to add to what you all have said.
I think that pretty much sums it up.
Yeah, it's a bad, bad situation and it's all too likely to come to pass.
Meanwhile, Trump's legal team asked for a special master to go through the Mar-a-Lago evidence and determine if some should be returned.
Very appropriate.
Former President's legal team has asked a federal judge to appoint a special master to ensure the DOJ returns its private documents improperly seized.
He's asking for a third-party attorney to oversee the review of evidence gathered from the beach club and the criminal probe, and for the judge to pause federal investigators' work related to the evidence until the review is done.
The new lawsuit marks the first legal filing by Trump's team after FBI agents carried out their raid.
Underscoring how his legal team has struggled to coalesce around a strategy, it's been assigned to Judge Eileen Cannon, nominated to the bench by Trump in 2020.
Trump argues his constitutional rights were violated.
There may have been privileged material seized.
I have no doubt.
The legal maneuver should slow down the DOJ ongoing investigation.
Trump's request, nevertheless, could face an uphill legal battle.
The August 8th search warrant was authorized by a federal court upon the required findings of probable cause.
The Department is aware of this evening's motions.
The United States will file its response in court.
Justice Department spokesman Anthony Coley said in response.
But the fact is, it's not at all clear that the warrant, the affidavit, was sufficient.
The ex-president's lawyer declined to take a position in court.
They did not weigh in on whether the affidavit should be made public.
Trump, in the new filing, asked for a more detailed receipt of what was removed.
If granted, it would add to the two receipts the FBI has already provided, describing 33 item Cs, which his attorney signed off on at the end of the search.
A DOJ removed 11 set of classified documents according to documents unsealed.
The inventory shows some of the materials were marked top secret SCI among the highest levels of classification.
They've always signaled they're using an internal filter team to review the seized items to separate items that could be subject to privilege.
They mentioned when they returned to Trump private documents that would not be part of the investigation, such as two expired passports and his diplomatic passport.
The Justice Department said it believed the evidence will support a criminal investigation and the mishandling of federal records.
The Justice Department has said it has concerns that further information becoming public could prompt witness or document tampering.
According to CNN and the New York Times, a lawyer for Trump said in writing, no classified records were left at Mar-a-Lago after June.
The FBI said in an inventory list that there were additional classified documents retrieved.
Well, there's an ambiguity here.
That the documents might have been stamped classified doesn't mean that they remained classified.
The president has the ultimate authority to declassify.
Three attorneys who signed the motion are Lindsey Halligan, Jim Trustee, and Evan Corcoran, including a line about politics not affecting the administration of justice.
In the filing, they put forward the president's narrative, recounting a message from Attorney General Merrick Garland.
Trump wants the Attorney General to know he's been hearing from people all over the country about the raid.
If there's one word to describe their mood, it is angry.
The heat is building up.
The pressure is building up.
Whatever I can do to take the heat down, to bring the pressure down, just let us know.
Trump's telling the search took nine hours, involved two dozen FBI agents, recrowning a request from Jay Bratt, the head of the counterintelligence sector in the Department of Justice, that Mar-a-Lago surveillance cameras be turned off.
A request, it turns out, that was declined.
He also asked for the names of Trump attorneys who may have been arriving at the search.
The lawsuit claims Rapp rebuffed a request that they be provided the affidavit.
That seems to me to be outrageous on its face.
In asking to turn off the security cameras, that seems as though there's something they wanted to hide.
Among other action taken after being notified of the unprecedented event, Council for Trump contacted three attorneys who agreed to go to Mar-a-Lago.
Once they arrived, they requested the ability to enter the mansion to observe what the agents were doing, which the government would not allow.
That's a third strike, in my opinion.
Trump's team also described their version of what happened in the investigation.
June 3rd meeting where investigators visited Mar-a-Lago.
Trump greeted them in the dining room, whatever you need just let us know.
They inspected the storage room.
Five days later they wrote a letter asking the storage room to be secured.
He added a second lock to the storage room.
Lawyers say the president directed the acceptance of a Department of Justice subpoena in late June, seeking footage from Mar-a-Lago surveillance cameras.
The New York Times, citing those familiar, said investigations have sought additional surveillance footage.
Trump's disclosures could come into play as a magistrate considers a transparency in the case.
EJ said it's investigating attempts to infract justice as part of its probe.
In addition to asking a special masker be appointed, Trump and his lawyers used the lawsuit as a vehicle to re-air old grievances about the FBI investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
They blast biased FBI agent criticizing key Russia probe figures, including Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Christopher Steele, and Bruce Ohr, all of whom played a role in the early investigation.
Trump brought it up as part of his argument that DOJ and FBI are biased against him and that the Mar-a-Lago search was meant to derail his political career, about which there can be no serious doubt.
Joe, your thoughts.
Joe. - Yes, as we've mentioned before, the judge in this case is appointed to do overflow cases and he doesn't have the jurisdiction to do anything other than a misdemeanor search the judge in this case is appointed to do overflow cases And so this is like a justice of the peace getting a complaint from a librarian about an overdue book
And then reacting with a 30-man SWAT team.
It's absolutely crazy that we're having to deal with this.
And there's nothing in the history of the DOJ or the FBI in the last 50 years to instill any level of confidence in anybody that's got a brain.
So, if you're still on autopilot, you live the illusion that our government's nothing but a bunch of Eagle Scouts and choirboys, get over it.
We have a dirty, filthy, penetrated government.
And I like Dan Bongino's calling this guy.
He switches the first two letters and he calls him Garlic Marlin.
So I'm going to start calling him that now, too.
And also, the many members of Congress have already said that if the Republicans get a majority in the House, they're going to impeach Christopher Wray and Garland Margaret.
Oh boy, more of the same.
Well, and I personally think they were looking for papers, maybe some Fauci papers.
I wonder what they might have had on them.
I keep hoping, we always hope somehow, that somehow these people are going to be taken down.
Yeah, I think, again, multi-steps.
You know, they're going to attack him.
They're going to try to make sure that he doesn't stand a chance at election time.
They're going to distract us from other things they're doing behind the scenes, like China buying up most of our land or, you know, whatever else may be going on.
And at the same time, go in.
I thought maybe they were going to plant something and only time will tell.
Definitely, I think they were, again, more smoke and mirrors, but I think they were looking for something that maybe, whether it's Fauci, Burks, Pelosi, the whole conspiracy.
I personally think Trump might have been on to something right before he was getting out.
We know there were some things going on as he was leaving, and when he went in to drain the swamp, and he clearly didn't get to finish the job.
I think you're right.
Meanwhile, Republicans launch ads attacking the Democrats for the Inflation Reduction Act, which does nothing to reduce inflation.
Republicans have launched an ad targeting a Democratic voter for the $740 billion health care climate and tax bill.
An ad buy from the Congressional Leadership Fund is aimed at Representative Jared Golden of Maine for voting for the legislation.
Prices are up.
The economy is weak.
Maine families are drowning.
But instead of helping, Jared Gardengast won one of the deciding votes for Biden's new massive spending bill that will make inflation even worse.
Tax hikes for nearly everyone.
Up to 87,000 new IRS agents who can harass a middle class.
Times are tough.
When Maine families need a lifeline, Jared Golden threw us an anchor.
The ad highlights several lines of attack that were popular in polling.
Golden is in a tough re-election fight in the general against former Representative Bruce Pullenquin, a Republican.
Golden's congressional district, moreover, voted for former President Trump by six points in 2020.
Trump has slammed the legislation and called for Democrats to vote against it.
Should we call the Inflation Expansion Act, he said, adds 87,000 gun-carrying IRS agents to cajole and harass you and your family.
Meanwhile, Republicans are expected to continue using the legislation in their campaign to win back Congress.
Expect to see millions in advertising attacking Democrats.
We'll see a lot more of these ads in the coming month.
They're effective, and every Democrat supported this bill.
Meanwhile, the Inflation Reduction Act nightmare targets life-saving meds.
President Biden returned from vacation in South Carolina last week to sign the Inflation Reduction Act into law.
The country would have been better off had he stayed at the beach.
The IRA concludes a combination of massive tax increases, innovation-destroying price controls, debt-funded spending commitments, which may be music to the ears of Democrats, but for American households struggling with spiraling prices, the future has rarely looked so dim.
The new spending package comes at a time of widespread pessimism about the future of the economy.
A Harvard-Capp Harris poll showed 84% of voters believe the nation is either in a recession or will be soon.
A recent Gallup poll found consumer confidence in the economy is lower than it's been in a decade.
So why are Democrats raising taxes, not just on the rich, as the president wants to maintain?
An analysis estimates the law will hike taxes on Americans earning $200,000 a year or less by more than $16 billion.
That contradicts his claim that anyone earning $400,000 or less would not see a penny in tax increase.
What the Democrats plan to spend all this money on?
$370 billion will go toward climate and environmental policies.
Climate change, however, is not even among the top dozen political priorities the public would like to see Congress address.
The bill also devotes $64 billion to expanding the more generous subsidies for Obamacare coverage.
They're scheduled to expire at the end of 2025, but they were also supposed to expire this year, so it's likely they'll continue indefinitely.
If the subsidies are made permanent, it'll cost $248 billion over the next decade.
Then there's the prescription price reforms the IRA will impose.
They'll be allowed to negotiate the price Medicare pays for 10 medicines, can dictate the price Medicare pays for 15 in 2027 and 2028, and then 20 in 2029.
Drugs that could be ensnared by the program include small molecule drugs that have been in the market for nine years without generic competition, and biologics that have been available for 13 without biosimilar competition.
This kind of misguided price control has been shown to chill innovation and reduce drug access.
Price controls automatically deprive the pharmaceutical sector of the resources it needs to take big financial risks on future cures and treatments.
The IRA imposes drug price controls as a mean of generating revenue for other progressive priorities.
This is the worst kind of short-term thinking.
Democrats are depriving future patients of life-saving medicines so they can enact a spending bill the vast majority never asked for and that our country cannot afford.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yeah, well I question how much life-saving medicine is actually produced by the big pharma industry, so that one I'm not going to really address.
But, as far as the 87,000 new IRS agents, with an average salary of $81,456 per year, You could put a police officer with an average salary of $55,117 per year in every public school in the nation, which is 97,568
schools and still have 31,000 police officers or schools and still have 31,000 police officers or $1,700,000,000 left over.
You now know they're not interested in safety or security.
They're after you, and that's the only way you can interpret this garbage piece of legislation.
Yes, I think you got it right, Virginia.
Yep, they want your retirement funds, the bank accounts, they want your home, they want it all.
I've known people that commit suicide over what the IRS does, and they don't care.
They'll come back to the family and harass some more.
That's without the $87,000 and the guns.
So yeah, it's clear what they're doing.
Those meds, there's just so much I could go on about the crashing of the medical system, but this is more of the same.
They're making us sick, and they're making us sicker, and then they're going to withhold.
They'll probably withhold what?
EpiPens?
What was the... I think during COVID, they suddenly quit producing antidepressants, and we had an antidepressant shortage.
I don't remember how much of that made it into the news, but imagine the last thing you want to do is crash and go cold turkey off of an antidepressant.
They could have produced it.
They just suddenly couldn't, you know, magically.
They were short.
So nothing like yo-yoing on meds.
It's more of the same.
Death and destruction.
I'd like to come up with something nice and joyful to say, but no, I can't right now.
It's horrid.
Good points, Virginia.
Very good.
Meanwhile, we'll be right back.
Ben Garrison seems to have it right.
Do you expect me to talk?
No, Mr. Jones, we expect you to shut up the New World Order cancelling freedom of speech with an ultra-million dollar defamation case.
That's capturing it all in a nutshell.
Meanwhile, exactly what's behind the UN and WF insects as food agenda?
The two most prominent one-world government nodes in the UN and WEF have been aggressively pushing bug food for close to a decade now to wit good grub.
Why, we might be eating insects soon.
Really, truly disgusting.
In 2013, the UN said the latest buzz eating insects can help tackle food insecurity.
The book Edible Insects, Future Prospects for Food and Feed Security stresses not just the nutritional value, but the benefits insect farming could potentially have for the environment.
Last year, from the WEF.
Why do we need to give insects the role they deserve in our food systems?
By 2050, the world food supply will need to feed another 2 billion.
No, no, no.
We're losing billions due to the vax.
Insect farming for food and animal feed could offer an environmentally friendly solution.
A source of protein and fertilizer, emerging technology, could help bring insects back into the food system at scale.
The CIA-run Hollywood and MSM have been deployed to normalize insects as food.
Cult puppet and Rockefeller asset Bill Gates is pushing the bug grub scheme, which perfectly jives with all things eugenic, death facts, and technocratic dystopia.
All this slots perfectly into Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, and the Club of Rome's longstanding psyop, climate change.
So why bugs?
What exactly is in these alleged sustainable high-protein food sources that make them so important to the cult's agenda?
Insects contain a natural structural component in their exoskeletons called kitten.
This fibrous polysaccharide happens to be extremely toxic to humans.
Surprise, surprise!
Specifically, kitten triggers inflammation and immune responses.
Kitten, a potential energy-promoted pathogen associated molecular pattern, is in linear polymer composed of.
Mammalians are potential hosts for kitten-containing protozoa, fungi, arthropods, nematodes.
However, mammalians themselves do not synthesize kitten and thus it is considered a potential target for recognition by mammalian immune systems.
This sounds similar to some of the spike protein effects.
It also sounds like Ketanin is a kind of pathogen that could exacerbate VAEs.
The conclusion of the research study, Ketanin and its effects on inflammatory and immune responses, is rather measured, considered the deeply troubling finding.
The subject has not been fully appreciated.
The responses on our immune system During natural or experimental exposure are many aspects that are not thoroughly understood.
That means we know what's going on, but it's all bad, so we're not going to spell it out.
Perhaps the interactions are, in fact, understood well enough by the UNWF Gates et al.
as the mechanisms of the death vax spoke proteins have been well understood well before the rollout of PSYOP19.
In a rat study to determine if kerosene, a nuclear polysaccharide made from kit and is safe to consume, the following were found.
There are no histological changes.
However, the decreases were significant enough to suggest nutritional inadequacies.
The long-term effects of vitamin A and vitamin E deficiencies are well known.
It's unknown what deficiency-related effects would have been observed had the decreased levels been maintained for a longer period of time.
All very, very bad.
Basically, consuming insects over time will result in depletion of vitamins.
Humans exposed to modified mRNA gene therapy injections are all in varying degrees afflicted with death-vax-induced AIDS and will be especially susceptible to KIPP-rich diets.
The study also reveals the following.
The absolute relative thymus weights of 3% and 9% males and 9% females were also significantly decreased relative to those control groups.
The thymus is extremely sensitive to toxic compounds and similar stressors.
An alteration in thymus weight can be an indicator of apoptosis and organ atrophy in response to a toxin insult.
In other words, this establishes that ketosan-rich diets are toxic and could potentially result in the slow death of the organs in your body.
And if that were not enough, it's possible kinesin exposure may have induced the increased rate of seizures observed in this study.
Kitten-Induced Accumulation in Tissue of Inute Immune Cells Associated with Allergy, a study published in Nature, showed that kitten triggers allergic airway inflammation and possibly asthma.
What would happen to a person suffering from COVID or the death facts if they were on an insect-heavy diet?
What would happen to a person who developed asthma, inflammation, immunocompromisation, vitamin depletion from an insect-heavy diet if they contracted COVID or received a spike protein-inducing injection?
What would happen to a person suffering from COVID if they were on?
Clearly, the psyop flow into and out of each other.
Altering diet in conjunction with never-ending modified mRNA injection would certainly over time increase depopulation, especially when the insects are genetically modified, as are their eaters.
Insect-rich diets could very well have SADS and AIDS, and it's always the same elitist cabal of usual suspects pushing the very same agenda for the Fourth Industrial Post-Human Technocommunist Resolution.
Do not comply.
Joe?
Yes, well, it could be that the rumors about alien reptiles coming over and taking over our planet and creating Human hybrid reptiles is actually true, and in that case, the human hybrid reptiles would be able to consume those chitins and not have a problem, and so it's just another way of the reptiles defeating the mammals in the final takeover of the planet.
It's pretty bizarre, but it makes as much sense as anything else that's going on in today's world, so I wouldn't discount it.
Virginia?
Yeah, well, everyone needs to be reading their labels.
I don't know if it's in Europe that we've seen this.
I've heard about this for years, and even in an entomology class, we discussed the possibility in the 80s because someone wanted to know, you know, if you're ever out lost and in a survivor situation, you know, would you eat these bugs and this room full of bugs?
As heavens know, at least 30% carry parasites, dangerous to humans.
Probably 60, 70, 80 are dangerous to animals in general, like our livestock, right?
So, no, you wouldn't want to eat these, and we know you wouldn't want to eat these.
So, the kite and the loan is a problem.
There are other parasites as well, but this stuff is already being ground up and added to flour.
I mean, I've seen this.
I've seen labels.
Everyone needs to be looking And between that, one of our primary sources for playing around with the GMO has been the insects.
Okay, we have GMO-released mosquitoes, so what about the graphene that we're going to be ingesting?
And then we already have drone bees replaced with little cameras, and they've been working on that as well.
So what exactly is going to be No pun.
We don't eat bees, but what is exactly going to be attached or included in these insects that they're putting in?
And there's tiny, tiny little flecks of dark, but for the most part, I've seen some of this flower, for the most part, you wouldn't know to look at it.
You're making a great point, Virginia, that they're already doing this without announcing it to the public, so we do not know.
Meanwhile, a former SWAT officer observed the FBI raid of the Trump residence was unprecedented.
A veteran former police officer and former 2022 Republican candidate for Oklahoma governor said he wouldn't be surprised if the federal Department of Justice brought charges against Trump following the unprecedented raid of his Mar-a-Lago residence by the FBI.
You don't go to this level with a person of this level if you're not about to file charges.
You just don't do it, said Dr. Mark Sherwood, a retired 24-year veteran of the Tulsa Police Department, tenure member of the department's SWAT team.
I wouldn't be surprised if some charges are filed, even if the evidence is not thoroughly vetted.
The timing is curious, to say the least.
You're coming to the tail end of the midterm primaries, with Republicans poised to reclaim both chambers of Congress.
As a former law enforcement officer, Sherwood served many search warrants and knew the legal process for obtaining them.
What he finds highly unusual is the decision to search the home of a former sitting president against all historical precedent.
He told the Epoch Times not even the Watergate scandal surrounding Nixon or the impeachment of former President Bill Clinton prompted such unprecedented action.
I don't know of anything else in history that reaches this same level.
We don't know his total contents of the affidavit.
I know there's a lot of discussion of what parts to release.
We don't know what precipitated the acceleration leading up to the August 8th raid.
Truanzetti believes absolutely there could be compromised individuals within the FBI.
I can't get to the point where the whole batch is spoiled.
The local FBI branch office did not know to make this decision.
You don't go doing this knowing the political storm that's going to follow.
Federal investigators had permission to search the 45 office, all storage rooms and areas used by Trump and his staff.
The search warrant pertained to any classified government or presidential record created between January 20, 2017, when Trump took office, and January 20, 2021, when he left the White House.
That means any record during his entire term of office, which is absurdly broad.
In my opinion, that makes this warrant invalid on its face.
Sherwood said search warrants are specific and limited in scope.
It has to be so specific there can be no other resident like Trump's in the world.
It has to be very specific about what you're looking for and where it's located.
He said the warrant signed by the federal judge was extremely broad.
Many Republicans accuse the DOJ of a phishing expedition.
What information is out there?
We don't know.
There's a lot.
The question how much of it is true, that's up for debate.
I would hope that wouldn't be the case about a fishing expedition.
That would mean the affidavit was completely falsified.
The person who did that is guilty of perjury.
Every law enforcement in the land has a potential to get compromised.
No one would want to believe an entire agency is.
But as we all know today, there's a complete deterioration in trust in law enforcement, some of which is pre-Donald Trump.
During the raid agency's many items, including an executive grant of clemency for political consultant and lobbyist Roger Stone, information regarding the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, a handwritten note, two photo binders, a leather-bound box of documents, a potential presidential record, and three passports.
Trump claims they took privileged legal docs and executive material, kept in boxes, and opened in a safe, which turned out to be empty.
Grabbing passports that probably are not part of the search, completely improper, shouldn't do it, never.
However, if there's evidence in plain view, law enforcement believes that part of the investigation can seize that.
He viewed it as highly irregular that investigators turned off surveillance cameras during the raid.
If it were me, I'd want the cameras on to protect the integrity of what I'm doing as an officer and as an agent.
He said the feds seized large swaths of evidence without vetting what they were taking.
What was the threshold approved to obtain the warrant?
That's probably the trillion dollar question.
Probable cause is a preponderance of evidence.
51% of a crime would have been committed.
It's always based upon what's presented in front of a judge.
The question to ascertain is whether the evidence is valid or not.
That's the real attack point here.
That is not beyond reasonable doubt.
That's for the courts.
He questioned the DOJ timing to launch a raid nearly two years after his departure from office.
The unclear thing is what exactly is in the affidavit.
He said the media is mainly responsible for stoking fear and anger on both sides.
But the seeds of civil unrest began during the Obama administration and the riots of 2020.
He warned against any renewed acts of violence.
In the court of public opinion, it's a tough deal right now in today's world.
It doesn't take much to get people fired up about this.
There's going to be a lot of people rallying around this.
It's politically motivated.
It will backfire if it's politically motivated and galvanize both sides further dividing the country as it's already doing.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yes, well the FBI had no problem fabricating evidence to create four FISA court warrants so they could go out and spy on Trump based totally on lies, and that's the material that was at the Mar-a-Lago that they wanted to make sure never got into public domain because it's going to be really embarrassing.
We've got a really rotten justice system and a really rotten FBI.
And it can't happen soon enough.
Everybody's saying defund the police.
We don't have to defund the police.
We just need to defund the crooked law enforcement agencies, and that includes the DOJ, the FBI, and the CIA.
If we defund those, and then we can defund some of the crooked health organizations like the CDC and the FDA, that would be a wonderful change to start the new decade with.
Nice.
Nice, Joe.
Yes.
Honestly, I think they're setting up another January 6th or trying to.
I mean, it depends on who bites.
I wouldn't be surprised though.
And that's what they want.
They're going to want anarchy.
They are.
It spells it out very well in that article.
I think they're just putting the 2 sides together, heating it up, stirring the pot, trying to get to pre-election right up to the election time.
They're going to be doing this.
This is going to make it all the more important for us to get with our sheriffs.
Most people don't realize and often sheriffs don't realize they have the ultimate authority in their county.
And we personally here, Got together with sort of a town hall, if you will, with the sheriff and asked him, would you would you escort the feds out if they came?
And I mean, because they have the power to if they'll do it, if they'll do it.
This is this is going to get very interesting.
Yeah, this is just going to get very interesting.
I think you're absolutely right.
And after all, the warrant was signed on Friday the 5th, but they didn't execute it until Monday the 8th.
So it cannot have had all that much urgency that they would wait over a weekend to carry in a warrant that they're now claiming is a matter of the highest significance.
Bullshit.
Meanwhile, 20% of electric vehicle owners couldn't charge their EVs.
Yes, Joe, go ahead.
Yeah, just to amplify what they're trying to do.
They're trying to stage another bunch of false flags.
We mentioned that before.
A guy named Ricky Shifter, our man, entered the FBI's Cincinnati office and was fatally shot after a standoff with police.
And then this one popped up earlier today, and I haven't seen it anywhere else.
Bluefield, West Virginia.
A guy planted bombs in two different places and they managed to arrest him.
50-year-old white guy, so I'm pretty sure they're trying to stack that up.
Turns out they blew up one of the bombs, but it turns out both of the bombs were just fakes.
But, you know, they're escalating everything they can to amplify the, quote, domestic terrorist angle so that they can do some kind of a martial law takeover.
It's absolutely absurd.
So back to electric cars.
Yeah, I think you're right.
- See if things blowing up.
- Yeah. - Sorry.
- 20% of electric vehicle owners couldn't charge the EVs at public charging stations.
How about that?
The Biden admin pushes electric vehicles, but owners report they couldn't charge their electric cars at public charging stations.
J.D.
Power released its second annual US electric vehicle experience public charging study, interviewing 11,554 electric vehicle and plug-in hybrid vehicle owners from January through June of this year.
About 20% of electric vehicle owners couldn't charge their EVs at public charging stations.
One of every five ended up not charging the vehicle.
Of those who didn't, 72% said it was due to the station malfunctioning or being out of service.
Brent Gruber, Executive Director of Global Automatic of J.D.
Power, not only is the availability of public charging still an obstacle, but EV owners continue to be faced with charging station equipment that is inoperable.
The New York Times published an article, a frustrating hassle holding electric cars back, broken chargers.
Owners of battery-powered cars sometimes struggle to refuel on longer trips because public chargers don't work or malfunction while cars are plugged in.
There are an estimated 41,000 public EV charging stations in the U.S.
now.
Biden authorized spending $7.5 billion to hit a target of 500,000 electric charging stations by 2030.
Gruber points out, however, just adding stations isn't the answer.
The National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program will lead to sizable growth in the available charging stations, but that isn't the answer.
Stations need to be added where there are currently gaps in heavily-traveled routes, in high-density areas for people who don't have access to residential charging, most importantly designed with things for users that do allow charging, In other words, you're going to have all these hours sitting around while your car is charging.
You could get your gas tank filled in five minutes, but now you're going to have hours to sit on your thong, eat fast food, get fat and unhappy.
Despite supply chain issues, electric vehicle sales, including plug-in hybrids, spiked 41% in the first half of 2022.
EVs represent 6.2% of new sales in the first month versus 3.6% in 2021.
They didn't reveal the reason why the remaining 28% couldn't charge their cars.
It might be that it was the lengthy wait times.
A woman in March posted a video of a long line of Tesla owners waiting to charge their vehicles in Louisiana.
The woman who took the video spoke with one of the owners.
He said it normally takes 30 minutes to charge, but the demand was so high it took over an hour to charge one car.
A November 2019 video of a massive line of Tesla automobiles went viral.
Joe, your thoughts?
Yes, well...
They have a generation problem over in England because they turned off all their coal-fired plants and they shut down some of their nuclear plants and they abandoned any natural gas development and so they're going on nothing but solar cells and windmills and it's not providing enough energy.
So, as of January 1st, everybody that has an electric car charging station at their home They have to have a smart meter and a smart meter is capable of taking energy out of your car during high demand times and then they'll put it back if they want to or if the capacity is available.
So bottom line is you plug your car in thinking you're going to be charging overnight It's a cold night.
A lot of people turn on their electric heaters.
Next thing you know, you go out in the morning and your car has zero charge because you were heating everybody else's house on the block.
One of the comments that was made about the IRA, the Inflation Reduction Act was that, yes, the government is going to give you tax credits for EVs and photo cells.
So, if you buy a $60,000 EV and you put $75,000 worth of solar panels on the roof of your house in order to beat the 100% increase in gasoline costs and the 25% increase in electric costs, they'll give you a $7,500 tax credit.
Yeah, that's the kind of math that you get from these Harvard-trained economists like AOC.
It's insane, Joe.
Virginia.
Well, it just summed it up.
I mean, that's it.
And they don't want to have any way to go back.
It's going to be all green and no going back.
Um, it's just depressing.
I'm sorry.
And those smart meters, I was going to mention the same thing he mentioned about the smart meters and you were watching them blow.
I mean, we don't have great evidence just as yet, but there's been some overhead footage of the burnt lines.
I know I've mentioned that before.
These things are highly flammable.
The antennas are flammable.
The towers are flammable.
The meters on the houses are flammable.
People are hanging these Tesla batteries in their garages.
And yes, I do believe that they're going to be coming for us to be powering everything, and we're not going to be able to do it.
Like you said, it'll be draining it from your neighbors.
Neighbors are going to be draining right off of your house.
It's going to be chaos, and no one's going to have any energy.
I agree.
Short path to the destruction of the U.S.
economy, complete and utter.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you.

Truth Jihad Radio, August 19th.
Seven reasons it proves Sandy Hook was a false flag from Beverly.
One, Where was the mainstream media footage of EMT and police vehicles in front of the school?
When word goes out there's a shooting in a place like a school, the police and EMTs are on alert to sprint into action.
Once the police slapped the building to ensure there were no more shooters, would EMTs go in to do triage on the victims?
Just because there's a mass shooting doesn't mean everyone was killed.
Two, if it bleeds, it leads.
Where was the media footage of covered bodies on stretchers being taken out of the school?
Three.
Where was the media footage of hundreds of students and staff being evacuated from the school?
No interviews with some of the students or staff?
Four.
Why did Connecticut authorities seal information about Sandy Hook?
Five.
Why is the court system disregarding all legal protocols and denying Jim Fetzer and Alex Jones fair trial?
Six.
Why is Wolfgang Helbig being driven into bankruptcy just because he inquired about info regarding Sandy Hook?
Wolfgang was even visited by law enforcement to warn him away from seeking information.
Seven, if the majority of people believe the official story, why are the powers that be going to such length to silence a few conspiracy theorists?
The stench of the powers that be wanting to hide the truth is overwhelming.
Similar censorship and threat tactics are done on anyone who questions 9-11 or the COVID narrative.
Thank you, Beverly.
Meanwhile, final thoughts, Joe, yours.
Yes, well, about five years ago you and I had several debates on YouTube channel with a guy named Steve Diek, D-E-I-K, and I think that's a pseudonym, I don't think it's his real name, but anyhow.
He had some really interesting information on the holes that appeared in the side of the building, the Roadrunner images of the planes hitting the Twin Towers, and I agreed with him on his analysis of that, but he said the reason the buildings fell down is because they're made out of cardboard and sheetrock, and it's like, dude, I'm sorry.
I've been on construction projects my whole entire life, And I've had to do, as an engineer, job inspections and certified draw requests, and those involve concrete pours and testing to verify that you had the right mix of concrete, ASTM stamping on the steel, tightening of the bolts.
There's a number of things, and in a jurisdiction like New York, you couldn't possibly have built those buildings without building them per plan.
And that would have been by the building inspections by the design engineers as well as the banking inspection engineers.
But he just came out with a great video that's 15 minutes long on how the impacts were done with a combination of ingredients.
Including probably two missile strikes that hit each building at a synchronized time, and I've sent you that to get it put up, and it still hasn't been put up on BitChute, but it's a great video, and I'm going to be interviewing him sometime in the near future on TNT.
Joe, I just oversaw.
I miss it and haven't had it put up yet.
Virginia, final thought.
I'll keep it simple, because I could just rant.
Okay, so, I mean, why in the world would our government come up with terms like conspiracy theorists, chemtrails, anti-vax?
All of this comes straight out of our Government entities and power that be.
And if these things are also safe I mean I know I'm not the only one some of us have experienced a variety of harassment.
Nonsense.
I'll just call it nonsense, you know, that goes on.
Nothing big that's going to make the news, right?
So I would encourage anyone listening, number one, share.
Don't be afraid to share.
Don't be afraid to be called a conspiracy theorist.
I mean, there's nothing worse than not doing anything and learning years later that, oh, Yeah, they were right.
And you realize that you didn't do anything at all.
I'm thankful that I spoke out on vaccines a few decades ago and then went down that path.
I'm very thankful.
Glad I did it.
And from that point on, it's been others.
So I say, look at the websites.
Don't be afraid to click and do the research.
Get in there, check into the 5G, check into all these conspiracies, and don't call it Chemtrails.
It's geoengineering, and it's a major federal program that's been going on since the 50s.
Freedom Taker is a good one, and never give up.
Just keep plugging away, because everybody's going to need to get on board and do a little bit of something, and talk to one another about this, because If we don't, you know, FBI is not going to come save us.
Virginia and Joe across the board.
I'm delighted they're here with me today.
Yes, conspiracies are as American as apple pie.
The most published prosecuted crime in America is conspiracy.
Most American conspiracies are economic.
But when you look at JFK, 9-11, Wellstone, Sandy Hook, and more, The evidence is there.
I specialize in bringing together groups of experts to collaborate and sorting out what really happened.
Time after time after time, we have found where the government has sold us is a bill of rubbish.
Propaganda.
To put it technically, bullshit.
Meant to manipulate us to promote their own political agenda.
Don't let yourself be played.
Notice, I have a petition to the Supreme Court that's in conference on the 28th of September.
I will learn by 3 October Whether or not the court is going to hear my case.
It has every reason, there's every reason to believe that it will, because there are four criteria they use to decide whether it's a publicly significant case, a legally significant case, whether it represents a conflict between the highest courts of two courts of two states and Whether it corrects a major factual or legal mistake, mine ranks high on all five criteria.
Stand by.
I'm very optimistic we're going to have a positive result from the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, spend as much time as you can with your friends, your family, your loved ones.
With a threat of nuclear war with Russia in the offing, with COVID still on the way, we do not know how much time we have left.
Don't waste a minute of it.
