Need to Know News (8 February 2023) with Michael Parker

Time Text
This is Jim Petzer in Madison, Wisconsin, joined today by Michael Parker in Los Angeles, California, and we're hoping we may have Chris Weinert joining us from Fort Myers, Florida.
We begin with bringing you all the news you need to know, and of course the number one story today after last night's event is the State of the Union.
Which, frankly, is miserable.
I can't imagine how Biden could try to put a positive twist on it when we have millions of migrants flooding the border, when we're energy dependent once again, when inflation is skyrocketing, when we're sending all this equipment and money to Ukraine in a fruitless effort to defeat Russia.
Honest to God, I didn't think he had anything to boast about.
Let's hear an AP report about it.
Two years after the Capitol attack, the President sets out to offer a reassuring message and urges Republicans to work together to rebuild the economy and restore the soul of the nation, an economy he himself has done a great deal to destroy.
So, President Biden called on Republicans Tuesday night to work with him to finish a job of rebuilding the economy and uniting the nation.
The backdrop was markedly different from the previous two years when a Republican speaker sitting behind Biden and GOP lawmakers preparing to scrutinize his administration and his policies.
He sought to reassure the nation his stewardship has delivered results both at home and abroad.
But frankly, that's a dubious proposition.
The challenges for Biden are many.
Economic uncertainty, a warring war in Ukraine, growing tension with China, and more.
And as signs of the past trauma, most notably the January 6th alleged interaction which seemed to be coming unraveled at the seams, showing it was run by Nancy Pelosi, FBI, Capitol Police, really, in order to smear Trump, They put up a fence to protect, which is very bad for a guy who got supposedly the most votes of any candidate in history.
How in the world does he need to protect himself from the American people?
He took to the rostrum at a time when a quarter of us all say things are headed in the—only a quarter—say things are headed in the right direction.
He sought to confront those sentiments head-on.
You wonder whether a path even exists for you and your children to get ahead without moving away.
That's why we're building an economy where no one is left behind.
Jobs are coming back.
Pride is coming back because of the choice that we made in the last two years.
I cited some claims about new jobs.
They were preposterous claims, very much on the order of before the midterm claiming he'd Created 1.1 million jobs when the actual number was a paltry 10,000.
Speaker McCarthy, seated behind him, was respectful, asked Biden to refrain from using the phrase extreme mega-Republicans, which he deployed on the campaign trail.
Asserted he wouldn't tear up the speech and wouldn't play games as had Nancy Pelosi.
Biden was shifting sides after his first two years, pushing through major bills like the infrastructure package, which looks like it's just contributing to inflation, legislation to promote high-tech manufacturing, and climate measures.
Meanwhile, and this was in anticipation to show how bad the situation was, only 39% believe the State of the Union is strong.
According to a Monmouth poll from the day before, less than 4 in 10 say the State of the Union is strong, while 58, nearly 60%, say it is not strong.
Among those who doubt, 32% say it's not too strong.
26% not at all strong.
Only 7% claim it's strong.
So here we have Biden trying to wind his way through a minefield.
More than 2 million migrants have been apprehended at the southern border.
Fentanyl has become the greatest killer among 18 to 45-year-olds.
Inflation has soared to a four-year high.
Gas prices increased to all-time high.
highs, wages have shrunk, supply chain will persist, the deadly Afghan withdrawal will deeply embarrass the nation.
It wasn't as bad as his first State of the Union, where he was bumbling, coughing through his first.
But even though the livery was stronger, Brit Hume, among others, noted he missed words and he garbled his speech and he made claims that were even protested by members assembled, including the claim that the Republicans want to sunset Social Security and including the claim that the Republicans want to sunset Social Security and Medicare, which is
According to the poll, Americans have soured on the State of the Union since 2018, when Trump was in office, when 55% said the union was strong.
Independent voters are the main driver of the decreasing.
For them, the strength of the union has dropped steadily from 52 in 2018 to 44 in 1946 in 2022, now 33, Mercent.
Meanwhile, if anyone has a doubt whether this is the real Joe Biden, just compare.
On the left, the Joe Biden born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, who had a very expressive face, constantly had this shit-eating grin on his face, very, very articulate versus the current guy, very inexpressive, very inarticulate, even their very inexpressive, very inarticulate, even their signatures differ.
The evidence is simply overwhelming.
And to bring the point home, I just published a new blog about it.
Michael, your thoughts?
Well, listen, the only reason I really listened to the—well, I watched it on my iPhone—the State of the Union last night was because I was going to do this show with you.
I mean, I find Biden very difficult to listen to.
I admit that I don't like the guy.
I did not vote for him.
I find him to be an absolutely Terrible president.
But I was like, you know what?
I'm going to give it a shot.
I'm going to try to listen to it.
I did get through it.
But he didn't.
I had very low expectations and he delivered exactly that.
And it seems to me like all that people are really talking about today was that moment when he kind of taunted the Republicans and they're talking about Marjorie Greene, her little You know, yell back.
I didn't, there was not much there.
I mean, it was just, it was Biden talking about things, taking credit for things that he says that he did, that he didn't do.
Trying to make it sound like, you know, we're going to finish the job.
He said that, I don't know how many times.
Finish what?
I mean, we haven't really gotten started on much.
If you mean finishing, demolishing what was a good economy and an energy independent country, Well then perhaps that's what we're looking forward to, but I was very underwhelmed by it.
Very good, Mike.
I think those comments are all appropriate.
He had a lot of the Democrat wish lists that would add up to trillions and trillions more in spending that the country cannot possibly afford.
When I remind anyone who's got any doubts about who this guy is, go to my blog at jameshfetzer.org and check it out.
Meanwhile, while Russia is supposed to be the aggressor—look at the state of the NATO alliance in 1992.
Look at all those independent countries in the meanwhile.
I think there might have been 13 NATO nations at the time.
Look at the situation today.
If you assume Ukraine is seeking to join NATO, which was what provoked Russia into taking its special military operation, it's not so hard to figure out what's going on, and Russia is not to blame.
Meanwhile, Kiev declares that it's deployed chemical weapons in the Donbass and seems to be happy about it.
Bakhmut remains one of the bloodiest battlefields in the Donbass.
On the northwestern outskirts, Wagner units continue to assault villages there, according to preliminary reports.
One, Kashniagora, has almost completely come under Russian control.
It is inexorable.
In Bakhmut itself, fighting continues on the northern, eastern, and southern districts.
Back on February 4th, Wagner fighters launched an assault in the area of Stupka Station.
Fierce fighting continues, so I think it's all but resolved now.
Russians are making steady progress.
While the Ukrainian garrison at Bakhmut is close to being surrounded and collapsing, they're losing on the order of eight Ukrainians for every Russian soldier.
Ukrainian Nazis began to use chemical weapons, which they'd only boasted about on social networks.
The infamous Ukrainian blogger and commander of a separate tactical air reconnaissance group, MADYAR, has published a new video showing FPV drones and chemical munitions hitting Ukrainian military as they prepare to use prohibited weapons in Gotmar.
On the evening of Feb.
5, the first use of the chemical was reported in the outskirts of the village of Novokopnoye on the outskirts of Donetsk.
Russian servicemen suffered vomiting and convulsions.
Their claims were supported by photos of crashed drones identical to those that Magyar had boasted about.
Meanwhile, on January 6, the acting head of the DPR confirmed the fact of the use of chemical weapons in the two areas, thus are proudly boasting about it.
Here's a video addressing the issue.
Bakhmut remains one of the bloodiest battlefields on the Donbass.
On the northwestern outskirts, Wagner units continue their assault in the villages of Paraskavka and Krasnaya Gara.
According to preliminary reports, Krasnaya Gara has almost completely come under Russian control.
To the southwest of Bakhmut, Wagner fighters continue their assault in Ivanovsk.
Russian forces reportedly just one kilometer away from the Bakhmut-Konstantinovka highway.
In Bakhmut itself, fighting continues in the northern, eastern, and southern districts.
On February 4th, Wagner fighters launched an assault in the area of the Stupka station in the northern district of the city.
Fierce fighting continues.
Wagner fighters continue to mop up the area of the meat processing plant.
Fighting is ongoing in the area of the Alabaster Lanes as well as the Galinyaya Street.
In the Zabahuvtovka district, street fighting continues along Nikrasov Street and Vatunin Lane.
Russian assault units attack Ukrainian positions in the Sobochevka region in the south of Bakhmut.
While the Ukrainian garrison of Bakhmut is close to being surrounded and collapsing, Ukrainian Nazis began to use chemical weapons, which they had openly boasted about on social networks.
The infamous Ukrainian blogger and commander of a separate tactical air reconnaissance group, Madyar, has published a new video showing FPV drones and chemical munitions, hinting that the Ukrainian military are preparing to use prohibited weapons in Bakhmut.
On the evening of February 5th, the first use of these chemical weapons was reported in the village of Novobakhmatova on the outskirts of Donetsk.
Russian servicemen suffered vomiting and convulsions.
The claims were supported by photos of crashed drones identical to those that Magyar boasted about.
On January 6th, the acting head of the DPR confirmed the facts of the use of chemical weapons by the Ukrainian military in the areas of Bakhmut and Ukladar.
Thus, the Kiev regime is using chemical weapons, proudly declaring it out loud, but the so-called international community traditionally ignores its war crimes.
Michael, that's pretty significant in my opinion, though unsurprising from these Nazis that are running these ops there.
Your thoughts?
You know, a year into this, and the thing that bothers me the most, there's many things that bother me about this, but the main thing is, and I said this many times on the air already, is the U.S., instead of using our place and our stature on the globe to mediate,
We chose a side, and we continue to not try to mediate this, not to find an end, but to increase supplies through money, through weapons, etc.
to Ukraine.
I'm not trying to knock Ukraine and be a Putin apologist.
It's just that I'm more disappointed in our response in trying to take leadership and end this situation.
Now, I did hear something earlier this week, and I forget Who was reporting this, but initially there were stories back in March of last year, right when the crisis began, that Ukraine, both Zelensky and Putin, wanted to try to wind the thing down quickly.
But guess who didn't want that to happen?
The U.S.
So it looks like we are promoting an endless war that has no positive outcome.
I had really thought and hoped that this would be over by now.
I thought that maybe by end of last year we would have come to some kind of at least a ceasefire so that we would begin talks on where we go from here.
But no, here we are going on one year and it's an absolute travesty.
Excellent points.
Yes, yes, yes.
No, I'm all for Vladimir Putin.
He laid out the rationale right back on February 24th.
It was very clear why he had to take action.
It was not just a threat of Ukraine becoming NATO and then having all these missile systems on Russia's border.
But the biolabs, which were even genetically targeting Russian citizens by their DNA, And there turned out to be, I don't know, 2734 in the U.S.
Department of Defense has been paying for funding a lot of this research, Michael.
Further thoughts?
James, I just remember at the beginning of this, I would try to talk to people about this and just say, hey, you know what?
Just so you know, in case you don't, Ukraine has a history of being one of the most corrupt countries in the planet, and that's on record.
So let's just hold back a little bit on our presumption of what all is at play here.
Now, so people didn't want to accept that.
They didn't want to accept that there were Nazis within Ukraine.
Then they didn't want to accept that there were biolabs in Ukraine.
And we still have the Hunter Biden metabiotic situation with Ukraine.
So the whole thing, unfortunately, the U.S.
has fingerprints all over this as well.
And we are part of the problem, not part of the solution.
Oh, Michael, you're absolutely right.
In my opinion, Putin is fighting the good fight on behalf of all of humanity.
Meanwhile, Ron DeSantis and Martha's Vineyard liberals spinning ordered a permanent Blue City transport program.
Fascinating!
Democrats were fine with ignoring the exploding border crisis until DeSantis got involved.
He shook up the liberals when he flew 50, just 50 illegals to Martha's Vineyard.
The elite liberals living on the rich island exposed their hypocrisy when they got them out of town as fast as possible.
Biden and the Democrats had to scramble to cover their tracks when the damage was done.
More Americans are demanding answers as Biden opens borders as millions of illegals flood the country.
And they should be getting even more worried because DeSantis is just getting started.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to use a special session this week to broaden the state's migrant flight program.
Republican leaders of the legislature, in coordination with DeSantis, ordered lawmakers to convene for a special session this week to consider legislating creating what would be known as the Unauthorized Alien Transport Program.
Hey, look at that!
The Martha Vineyard Plan was so successful, Florida could make it permanent with the Unauthorized Alien Transport Program.
Florida lawmakers may soon back the sentence by creating a program that shuttles illegals to blue cities and blue states of the country.
This comes as thousands land on Florida's shores.
Because Biden is refusing to deport illegals that are coming in droves.
Not just over the U.S.-Mexico border, many are cobbling together boats to reach Florida.
They land on beaches and private property, creating an obvious national security crisis.
The new program would send many straight-to-rich liberals front door.
They'll have a hard time ignoring the border crisis if DeSantis sent these outsiders to their backyards.
Remember, These illegals are trampling the homes of American citizens.
They abandon boats that leak diesel into the water.
They have no documentation, ignore our immigration laws.
Many are connected to drug cartels, posing serious threats to the country, yet Biden ignores it all.
Perhaps more arrogant liberals need to deal with the droves of strangers trampling their homes until Biden starts to actually enforce our laws—and Michael, in my opinion.
This is the most egregious offense he's committed in office, and there are many competitors, but I think this is the worst.
Your thoughts?
One of the primary reasons for having a government of a country is to protect said country, right?
The integrity of our borders.
If we don't have borders, then we don't have a country.
We just have this kind of amorphous landmass and just anybody who can come or go.
Well, that is clearly not the way the United States or any reasonable country is set up to work.
And he, Biden, and the Democrats, as they turn a blind eye to all of this, well, I mean, he should be impeached for this.
Listen, we've got people flowing over the borders in all of the southern states in amounts... I don't know if we've ever seen it as bad as this.
I don't think we have.
So, you know, I have to praise DeSantis and Abbott for the actions that they take.
You know, some of this people will say, well, these are just publicity stunts.
Well, what else do you want us to do?
I mean, you've got to raise the question to where people see it and get people pissed off enough about the reality of what's happening here to take note.
I don't know how Democrats and those who support the left can simply ignore this situation.
Listen, everyone has compassion for those who want a better life, but this is so far beyond that.
This is clearly social engineering to further degrade the integrity of the United States and flood the country with a slave class.
Who you think is going to do your bidding at the polls in the future.
And here in California, we're already talking about legislation where you won't even have to naturally... What's the word I'm looking for?
You will not have to necessarily be a citizen in order to serve on city councils or in law enforcement.
Can you imagine that?
You don't have to... Or to vote, Michael!
Or to vote!
They're already promoting that.
It's freaking madness, man.
It is.
Spot on.
Good stuff, Michael.
Good stuff.
Meanwhile, Trump warns Americans to prepare for a depression more devastating than most.
What's coming is worse than a recession.
He's got it right.
President Trump came forward during a rally to warn that America's economy is going down the drain and we're facing a much bigger disaster than a typical downturn of the economy.
His forecast came before new official numbers show U.S.
economic growth is declining for the second consecutive quarter while consumer prices reach the highest level in a generation.
American purchasing power continues to shrink.
There's no way to avoid another economic slump, and what's coming next is going to be even more devastating than most expect.
What we're going now could be a very bad place.
He emphasized millions of Americans are seeing their real wages collapse as inflation rises and eats up bigger share workers' buying power.
At the same time, worsening labor conditions have resulted in a historically depressed labor force and that the administration's current push for a Green New Deal is only going to accelerate our economic slump, given the nation's critical energy supplies are dwindling.
We've got to get this act in order.
We have to get this country going or we're going to have a serious problem.
In Trump's view, calling the next downturn a recession is not enough to describe the difficulties we're all going to face.
Consider that virtually every sector of the economy is being hit by one disruption after another.
Trump argues that an economic depression that will rival the great of the 1930s is ahead.
New numbers released indicate his forecast might be spot on.
Friday, the Bureau of Economic Analysis released data showing real U.S.
GDP fell by an annualized 0.9% in the second quarter after contracting 1.6% in the first.
Two consecutive are a common definition for a recession.
The recessions in the U.S.
are officially declared by a committee of economists at the National Bureau of Economic Research, Using a broader definition than the two-quarter rule.
No wonder so many experts believe things will get far worse.
In his remarks, a former president criticized the government's handling of the economy, blaming the Democrat-controlled White House for soaring inflation and growing economic imbalances on top of it all.
Skyrocketing energy prices are making the situation much more complicated.
According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, soaring energy costs account for around half the headline inflation figure.
Trump argued the decision left the U.S.
in a vulnerable position.
Now we're literally begging other countries to pump more oil instead of rambling up our own domestic reduction.
The shortage is already slowing down manufacturing, contributing to the deterioration of our economic conditions.
The term recession can be described as a broad-based weakness in the economy, and that's exactly what we're witnessing now.
The development prospects in a fractured world include supply-side shocks, waning consumer and investor confidence, and a war in Ukraine that provoked a global shutdown and triggered inflationary pressure.
Well, all regions will be affected.
Alarm bells are ringing for most developing countries, which are edging closer to debt default.
As climate stress intensifies, so do losses and damages inside the vulnerable economies.
Grim outlook.
The report projects world economic growth will slow to 2.5% in 2022 and drop to 2.2% in 2023.
We're already here.
A global slowdown, leaving the GDP below its pre-COVID pandemic trend, costs the world more than $17 trillion in lost productivity.
Despite all this, leading central banks are sharply raising interest rates, threatening capital growth and making life much harder for the heavily indebted.
The global slowdown will further expose developing countries to a cascade of debt health and climate crises.
Middle-income countries and Latin American low-income in Africa could suffer some of the sharpest slowdowns this year.
Michael, the situation is very bad.
Your thoughts?
You know, when you start redefining words like vaccinations and inflation, when you have to start changing the definition in order to fit your narrative, you've got problems.
And this idea that we're not in inflation and, you know, two quarters of reduced GDP does not mean that, well, that's just straight up bullshit.
And I've got to take this back to the very beginning of the Biden administration.
One of the very first things that he did In the first couple of days in office is just basically declare war on independent energy production here in the United States.
And you would think that coming off of a major Calamity, catastrophe, disaster of COVID, where all of these people have lost jobs, we've got people in very bad economic situations, you would think that everything would be on the table.
Everything that we could use that's going to help us get back on track, let's keep that going.
Let's not start shutting things down that actually impose a tariff on everybody.
Because energy, when you have rising energy costs here in California, I mean, it was just madness.
I mean, it was like $7 a gallon here in LA.
Now we've got natural gas prices here in California that are... My wife and I just got a $1,000 natural gas bill.
My point is this.
With all of the bad economic news, one of the very first things that you could do is just say, you know what?
We were completely wrong on our energy policies.
We're going to cut that out.
And last night, what does Biden say?
Hey, we're going to need, you know, we're going to need oil for another 10 years.
Well, no shit, Sherlock.
I wish that you would have realized that early on, because now what you've done is just further flush the whole thing straight down the crapper.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Michael, you're just spot on.
Really, really excellent.
I'm just delighted.
Meanwhile, We now return.
Kevin McCarthy had tweeted, First, Biden refused to defend our borders.
Now he won't defend our skies with the absurd balloon situation to which we shall return.
Meanwhile, Thai princess coma mystery.
Professor says it's a COVID jab injury.
In my opinion, there can be no doubt.
44-year-old princess had her upper butt of Thailand picture collapsed while walking her dogs on December 14.
According to sources, she had not felt well after receiving her third booster.
Very bad idea.
In the UK, if you get three or four boosters, your probability of death just skyrocks.
After her collapse, she lost consciousness and remains in a coma.
According to The Independent, she's on medical equipment supporting her lungs, heart, and kidneys.
Sounds like she's actually already dead.
She is the eldest child of the current King Rama X, a law graduate and a senior diplomat in the Thai government.
The palace confirms she suffered heart issues.
But the explanation given by authorities at a local university was it was from a bacterial infection which had been called ridiculous by medical expert professor Sucharit Bhagdi.
Thiborne Bhagdi, a former professor of microbiology at the University of Maine in Germany, Had a celebrate career in medical science as a world expert on the immune system and arterial disease, until mainstream narratives and fact-checkers labeled him a conspiracy theorist for his strong opposition to the COVID vax.
According to Bakhtiyar, who claims he and his contacts have been in direct contact with the royal family, the Princess collapsed with an adverse reaction to the jab.
She had been previously healthy with no known medical conditions.
Speaking on the Neutral Swiss Rumble channel, Bakhtis said, this whole COVID agenda is fake.
I was able to lay out for them to prove the COVID vaccines were based on fraud.
The EMA declared that safety pharmaceutical studies were never performed.
Never.
And they were never deemed necessary.
So no, we have it.
When I told the Thais, you know, guys, they jumped up, they jumped up in the room.
So I said to me, we will see to it that Thailand is the first country in the world to declare this contract null, which means Pfizer-BioNTech is going to have to pay back those billions of Thailand, with which Thailand will recompensate those who have lost their existence.
One daughter, the present King, ex-collapsed and is in a coma within 23 days after the third shot, 44 years old, never been seriously ill, collapsed and is now in a coma, and I predict she will never recover.
The diagnosis that was given by the authorities in the universe is so ridiculous.
She's supposed to have a bacterial infection that would never do what she has suffered from.
And we are so determined.
The activists in Thailand have been on this many months now.
Great guys.
Also a professor from the University of Bangkok.
He's got in touch with the royal family.
We're sending information to alert them to the fact that in all probability, the princess's sovereign is a victim of the jab, and as so many around the world have been suffering.
We'll talk.
Meanwhile, the World Economic Forum chief propagandist has stepped down after the disastrous Davos conference.
Winter Klaus Schwab's top deputies is stepping down after over a decade of being the top information operation executive, meaning he's a chief propagandist.
Adrian Monk, Managing Editor and Condiment Director for the WEF, announced the news.
He oversaw the WEF's notorious Young Global Leaders and Global Shapers program, which Schwab infamously bragged had helped the outlet penetrate the cabinets of foreign governments.
The WF and its beneficiaries face major headwinds as global resistance has formed against the organization's advocacy for a two-tiered feudalistic society.
Basically, the rich ensconce in their castles, the rest of humanity toiling as serfs and slaves in the field.
What was once a shadowy by-design network has been forced into the mainstream spotlight.
The Bullock to the WF has been on display for the world to see in its 2023 conference.
Their extremist agenda, which advances tyrannical anti-human narratives such as a Great Reset and Build Back Better, Where have we heard that before?
Met several unexpected challenger divos through independent and non-institutional media operations.
Here's Rebel News tweeting, we caught him.
Watch what happened when Israel and Osama spotted Albert Moore, the CEO of Pfizer, on the street in Davos.
We finally asked him all the questions the mainstream media refused to ask, which, of course, he refused to answer.
One Japanese journalist even got a few questions with Schwab, who was incredibly displeased with his impromptu interview attempt.
Here we have a tweet.
I encountered Klaus Schwab, and here's what happened.
He is afraid of our resistance.
In the U.S., several Republicans in Congress have backed out of Demos after the dossier reported on their planned participation.
The dossier abandoned ship.
Republicans in USWEF delegation reversed course.
Monday marked the first day, and the U.S.
congressional delegation to the ruling class gathering was noticeably slimmer than advertised.
New posts consider becoming a free conscriber.
Demos 2023 won't cut out a free promo for the Chinese Communist Party to the expressed approval of the Chinese state media operation invited to the meeting.
Just weeks before its annual invite-only closed-door gathering, Fox sought to mitigate the reputational damage to the WEF, churning out articles claiming they were the victim of disinformation.
One piece that was published in The Globe and Mail He declared a Russian propaganda campaign were to blame for negative perceptions about the WEF.
The intent was to spread disinformation to stir far-right outrage about COVID and to perpetuate domestic extremists, he said.
The means was often via bots that would push far-right conspiracy theories.
It's getting pretty tiresome to hear this kind of nonsense.
Calling for global censorship and surveillance akin to that installed by the Chinese, Monk declared, the consequences of unabated misinformation are dangerous.
Misinformation concerning COVID impacts us live during the pandemic.
The revelation around the January 6 Capitol Hill riot revealed how false information about elections can threaten the foundations of democracy.
Wow, has he got all that backwards.
Michael, your thoughts?
When people talk about the WEF and they talk about the vaccines and they talk about the vaccine injuries and they try to, you know, say that anyone who wants to talk about this in a critical fashion, well, this is all misinformation.
Well, that's just vacuous nonsense.
They pretend that we regular human beings cannot do our own research, that we can't go out there and find sources to back up What we already know, and all they have to push against that is the mainstream media, which then parrots whatever messaging they want.
So, to the Thai Prince's story, I've been following that a little bit for a couple of weeks, and my heart goes out to their family.
I mean, they're a royal family.
I'm sorry that this has happened to them.
It has happened to a lot of regular people.
It's happened to athletes for years now.
Young people who were in excellent athletic condition, falling down on the football fields of Europe.
We had this very strange situation in the U.S.
with the Buffalo Bills player, which is still extremely odd to me.
But the point is, The situation with the Thai Princess, if there's any upside to this, is that...
A royal family of a major modern country is saying, no, we blame the vaccine.
We blame the manufacturers of the vaccine and those who would push the vaccine.
And we are going to put an end to it.
And someone has to make the first step.
And so I applaud them for doing this.
I'm sorry that I had to strike their family in order for this to happen.
Now to the WEF, if you remember, I think it was two years ago, And I believe it was November 2nd of 2021, which is my brother's birthday, which is the way I remember it.
But Time Magazine put The Great Reset on the cover.
And they basically, and Klaus Schwab, it was a special edition of Time Magazine, because at that point people were still saying, oh, The Great Reset, that's just conspiracy nonsense, that's not a real thing.
No, this is Time Magazine telling you that it's a real thing, and the lead article is written by Klaus himself.
Well, now regular people, and news shows like yours, and the ones that I have done, have informed regular people Outside of the mainstream media, which they know they can't trust, and carries water for these people who want a different vision of the future than a humanist vision.
We all know that's just straight-up nonsense.
So, for them to complain that all of a sudden, you know, they're getting all this bad information about them.
No, they brought it all on themselves, and they really had a longer ride at this than they even deserved.
And I didn't know that this guy was stepping down.
I'm glad to see that.
I would like to see the whole thing disassembled, but I think that it's going, they will, they'll probably pull back just a little bit, kind of massage their messaging a little bit, hope that this blows over, lean on their partners in the mainstream press to help them out of it.
But no, the word is out, man.
I mean, if you don't know about the WEF, you don't know about the Great Reset, then you've chosen not to know about it.
Great comments, Michael.
And of course, they're going after the food supply, 130 food processing plants.
They're going after chickens and eggs because it's an ingredient in yolks that causes the vacs not to take hold and kill people.
So they're trying to put an end to that, to eliminate that barrier to their success in this mass genocide, the scale of which is unprecedented in history.
Michael, further thought?
Did you hear just yesterday about the New Zealand, um, uh, chicken, uh, 35,000 hens or whatever.
Yeah.
I mean, at what point do people just put two and two together and go, well, right.
Okay.
This, this happens occasionally, like a refinery fire happens occasionally, but when things like this nature happen in rapid succession, It's pretty obvious what's going on.
Now the deal with the yolks, I didn't know about that until the past week, but it's almost like, do you remember in the COVID period when it seemed like people who were smoking, I used to smoke and I'm not judging anybody, I still will have a cigarette every now and then, but do you remember when there were people who were wondering if nicotine was perhaps impeding the COVID virus?
And so all of a sudden, you know, You know, now they don't want you to vape and they don't want you to do this.
It's just, it's almost like anything that can help, we don't, we want that off the table.
Whether it be egg yolks or anything else, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, whatever it is, vitamin D. If that's going to help, we don't want you to have it and we want you to hurt longer.
Michael, it's just insane.
You're absolutely right.
I mean, this is a mass genocide that is just continuing unabated.
Meanwhile, and I find this distressing as a student of JFK, Justice Department seeks dismissal of JFK records lawsuit.
Brief argues Biden has discretion to hide as many assassination files as the CIA wants.
Well, it wasn't primarily a CIA hop, but the CIA was deeply involved.
Lyndon Johnson wanted to become president of all the people.
He was in dire straits, and he had Jack taken out.
Biden and Trump acquiesced to extreme CIA demands for secrecy around the JFK files.
Alas, the Biden DOJ responded to a lawsuit brought by the non-profit Mary Farrell Foundation, charging Biden and the Archive with failure to implement The 1992 JFK Assassination Records Act, which required all these documents to be released on a time schedule which has long since passed.
The 30-page brief, signed by Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian Boynton, Seeks to dismiss the lawsuit on the ground the President has discretion to implement the Records Act without regarding the original intent of Congress, which passed the law unanimously in October of 1992.
Frankly, that's absurd.
The motion was filed in the 9th District in San Francisco, Judge Richard Seaborg presiding.
Here's DOJ motion to dismiss.
Mary Farrell Foundation vs. Biden.
The Mary Farrell Foundation and Council are reviewing the brief and will issue a statement shortly.
The Foundation sponsors the largest collection of authenticated JFK assassination materials on the Internet.
The Foundation's simple complaint, filed in October of 2022, Charter Biden in the archives have failed to comply with their mandatory non-discretionary duties to include full and timely disclosure of all assassination records as required by the JFK Records Act.
This failure interferes with plaintiff's core mission to educate the public regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
The Records Act, approved unanimously by Congress, mandates release of all government files that are in any way related to the murder of the popular president in Dallas on November 22, 1963.
Last October, four members of Congress Led by Representative Steve Cohen of Tennessee, called on Biden to release all the remaining JFK docs.
Joining Cohen were Democrats Jamie Raskin of Maryland and Anna Eshel of California and Republican Tim Burchett of Tennessee.
44 undisclosed docs.
In December of 2022, the CIA released several thousand JFK files for the first time.
Nonetheless, At least 4,400 files still retain government-ordered redaction, including 44 records that have been denied in full about the CIA's re-assassination interests in Lee Harvey Oswald.
For a complete background, check it out.
Please share the Biden Justice Department Brief with anyone who favors full disclosure, is concerned about the aggrandizement of power by the government, and has podcasts about secrecy, transparency, or American history.
Michael, your thoughts?
When I think about disclosure of subjects like the JFK assassination, 9-11, other things, I often wonder if there will actually ever be any type of disclosure.
I think what's more likely to happen is we all just It becomes common knowledge.
We all know, and it is actually never fully disclosed what happened by the government.
We just all, it's just common knowledge.
This is what happened.
They're never going to tell us.
Now, the problem with that is, and I hope that I'm being overly pessimistic.
The problem with that is, is that the country just never heals.
We all know, we all have the shadow above us that our government lies to us about things that are extremely important.
Those are the types of fractures that prevent a country from ever being its full, utmost, optimum self.
It's like secrets within a family, right?
And when nobody tells them, we just harbor the secret, and the family never gets any better.
So until we can face this, and until the government tells the truth about these types of things, We're going to have a lot of problems, and people like us will continue to be disheartened by this, and we will continue to have our own mission, which is to try to tell the truth, but really it is on the government to step up.
And the JFK assassination, everybody knows what happened.
Most people do.
And at this point, this far on, I don't know... It does more damage to not tell the truth than to tell the truth.
Let me just add that my research colleagues and I have been engaged in JFK research since 1992, for 30 years now, established long ago that Lee Oswald was standing in the doorway of the Book Depository when the JFK motorcade passed by, which means he not only cannot be the lone gunman, But he cannot be one of the multiple.
Actually, there were eight different shooters in Dealey Plaza that day, Michael.
But the government wants to keep it all covered up.
A final thought?
Yeah, because I'm not as knowledgeable on this subject as you, but one of my heroes was Jim Mars.
What did you think of his work on the JFK assassination?
Oh, he was a friend of mine.
We collaborated.
We did a co-authored article on the back here in photographs.
Fantastic.
Where Lee, when shown one, had said that was someone else's body with his face pasted on.
Jim and I published an article about it.
He was absolutely right.
It was a fellow named Roscoe White, who became a Dallas cop just weeks before the assassination, who actually was working for the CIA, and who may have been responsible for as many as 50 assassinations of spectators who were at Dealey Plaza.
But it was he who was in the backyard photograph, just as Lee said.
His face busted on Roscoe White's body.
It's fascinating.
And those who are interested, check out, you know, the new JFK Show I do with Gary King and And Larry Rivera, where Larry has created superpositions of Roscoe's body with a background.
Turns out the guy in the backyard photographs is much more husky and physically fit than was Lee Oswald, who has a diminutive presence compared to what's supposed to be his body, but turns out not to be.
And on my BitChute channel, Jim Petzer, just check out JFK and you'll find a whole lot of current reports about it.
Meanwhile, Green Fail.
Dozens of Scottish windmills powered by diesel generators pour hydraulic oil into the countryside.
Just one more illustration of the catastrophe we're being led into by Green New Deal propaganda.
Scotland's green-obsessed left-handed government has been left with hate on its face by the revelation dozens of gigantic wind turbines are having to be hooked up to diesel generators, leaking thousands of liters of hydraulic oil into the countryside.
Scottish power, led by a Spaniard, Ignacio Galán, and actually a subsidiary of Spanish firm Iberdrola, Conceded that some 71 of its turbines had to be hooked to diesel generators to keep them warm in December.
Think about how absurd this situation is, with a whistleblower telling the newspaper the problem with the turbines are deep-seated.
During December 60, at Archeo and 11 at Glen Epp, were de-energized due to a cabling fault In order to get them re-energized, diesel generators were running for almost six hours a day.
Turbines are regularly offline due to false weather taking energy from the grid rather than producing it, and left operating on half power for longer periods due to parts that have yet to be replaced.
Very hydraulic oil is also regularly being sprayed across the Scottish countryside due to cracks in the mechanisms.
Safety standards have not improved since a worker was killed in 2017 at a wind farm.
Indeed.
The record went on to say that some 4,000 liters, over 1,000 US gallons, of leaked hydraulic oil was sprayed over the countryside by the termites.
Here we have Breitbart Lundin tweeting, Green agenda set back.
Cold weather, wind not blowing, sees UK bring coal power plants back online.
The Scottish government wants to make our country attractive for foreign investors, and 40% of the wind that blows across Europe blows across Scotland.
However, that does not mean we have to put up with our waterways and nature being polluted with carbon from diesel generators and hydraulic oil.
People should be aware that while their energy costs continue to rise, our wind farms are not operating as efficiently as they could be due to corporate greed, adding, possibly with reverence to the reported £11 million Scottish Power Spanish chairman, as regular Scots are being crushed beneath sharply rising energy bills.
Indeed, Richard Tice, leader of the Reform Party, formerly the Brexit Recently complained that 83% of Britain's offshore wind turbines are foreign-owned, with the largest single being the government of EU member state Denmark.
We've reached taxpayer paying huge inflationary subsidies to create even larger profits for the Danish taxpayer.
What's the advantage of that?
Meanwhile, Breitbart London tweets, take back control.
Reform party calls for end of foreign ownership of utility firms.
Colin Smith, a member of the Scottish Parliament for the Scottish Labour Party, conceded having to use diesel generators to de-ice faulty turbines is environmental madness.
Attacking Scotland's dissolved government, also led by two other leftist parties, for the fact that their rhetoric on net zero is very different from the reality, accusing them of dishonesty.
The Labour Party, however, itself is Far from free of wind-related fiascos in Wales, where it runs a devolved government with a 300-foot beehive of a wind turbine costing millions of pounds toppling over in the country last year and terrifying local villagers, apparently due to high winds.
Wind turbines having an issue with wind, the resource they're supposed to tap for renewable energy, was far from unheard of prior to this.
Whether or not a Welsh turbine lighting up like giant Catherine wheels after gales caused them to burst into flames in a 2040 incident, for example.
Breitbart London again.
UK wind farm played record £9.3 million to not run for one day.
How awful.
Michael, your thoughts?
I mean, I don't know what it's going to take.
The wind turbine issue.
And, you know, perhaps there are places where it's appropriate.
Perhaps there are places where you get back more than what you put in.
But until that happens, it's not a fundamentally optimum type of mechanism for energy manufacturing.
Just the idea that you're having to use diesel to de-ice the damn thing so it even runs.
Okay, and when the wind doesn't blow, Well, it's doing nothing.
So where I'm from in Texas, we have a lot of these wind farms and I think a lot of times they approach these landowners who may be having a tough time of it because we're in this economic Bad season.
And you say, well, look, we're going to put some wind farms on your property.
We're going to maintain them.
And they take the money at the moment.
But the deal is, these things take a lot of maintenance.
They are not biodegradable.
They eventually break down.
And I believe that there are even wind turbine cemeteries where they take these things after they're busted and broke down.
And then they don't degrade.
The whole thing is just There are other ways of generating energy that are more efficient, and all of that should be on the table.
And the wind turbine thing, I mean, it's just not a suitable source of energy for a lot of places.
No, it's all nonsense.
It's based on pseudoscience, Michael.
Carbon dioxide isn't warming the planet, it's cooling the planet.
Carbon dioxide is indispensable for the production of oxygen, water.
We can't sustain life on Earth without carbon dioxide.
It's just nonsense.
It's a myth being propagated by the WEF to promote the Great Reset.
And destroy us of the ability to live a sustainable life based upon the virtually unlimited resources Earth provides.
Oil is a naturally produced product of the Earth.
It is in superabundance.
Barack Obama set out to destroy the coal industry, one of the dumbest actions any president could take.
He was by and large successful.
We have to revive our own natural resources and to hell with the Green Agenda.
We've got to get our priorities straight.
Further thoughts?
Well, right now people are talking about how high their energy bills are, how high their fuel bills are, how high their food bills are.
Why do you think that is?
It's because it's a bad policy.
All of this was avoidable.
Every single bit of this was avoidable.
But policy decisions led to this.
And these were not, I think, decisions that were made by mistake or by accident.
This was social engineering at work.
People are waking up, I don't know how much longer it will take for them to wake up, but the deal is this idea of renewables, you know, and electric cars and these things, well, actually, all you're doing, you're storing energy that had to be generated somewhere else.
The battery didn't create anything.
So you have to create the energy that's then put into these receptacles, which then fuel other things.
So it's just back asswards.
Yes, yes, yes.
Absolutely right, Michael.
Exactly.
Meanwhile, we have the anti-New York Times tackling the Chinese balloon drama.
New York Times writes, the U.S.
shoots down Chinese Y-balloon off the coast of the Carolinas.
Rebuttal by the anti-New York Times.
The saga of the Chinese spy balloon, which was allowed to traverse the entire United States at a glacial base before finally being popped, went wall to wall on the media.
As Trump and conservative, it called for the weak character playing the role of Joe Biden to shoot it down.
The administration and establishment press also expressed concern over the ongoing event.
The alleged Secretary of State Tony Blinken, cough cough, in canceling his planned trip to China, called the Chinese surveillance an irresponsible act and a clear violation of U.S.
sovereignty and international law.
But why was this balloon such a big deal?
Above 60,000 feet is generally considered, in essence, not by law, To be beyond National Airspace Enforcement.
And satellites can do this surveillance work legally anyway.
Even Google Earth is accessible to all.
Surely, every space-capable nation by now has a capability to survey every square inch of each other's territory.
What was all the commission really about?
Here's much ado about nothing.
Blink and cancel trip.
Are we going to start shooting down surveillance satellites too?
Jordan Cruz shred Biden over suspected Chinese spy balloon by comparing him to past president.
Weakness!
Why is Biden letting China off the hook?
Asked Representative Jim Jordan.
Biden administration tried to hide Chinese spy balloon from American public.
That was in the New York Post.
finds weak response to chinese surveillance balloon at green light to bad guys mike pompeo on fox once one smells the fishiness of this drama the first logical question to ask is who benefited from balloon doom the corollary would be who has left the most damaged by this event The answer to that question is objectively obvious.
As Trump, the Republicans and the shrill voices of conservative incorporated punditry called for the balloon to be popped.
The Fall Guy character Joe Biden, who could easily and without repercussion have shot it down very early in its voyage, refused to do anything about it until it had already reached the Atlantic.
The man in the mask came off to normiedom as a late-reacting, pathetically paralyzed spanked ass in the pocket of the Chinese.
Could this have been a White Hat setup, and perhaps not in collaboration with White Hat's eye, who's fighting in his own Shanghai deep state to lay the groundwork for exposing Biden's status as a deal-making crook beholden to Chinese paymasters and hence powerless to confront China?
As GOP mega-Jim Jordan rhetorically asked in regard to the incident, why is Biden letting China off the hook?
Another put it more colorfully, China has got jolt by the balloons.
One month prior to the rigged election, a 2020 Q indicated that the Biden crime family's corrupt and blackmailable past dealing with China and also Ukraine would be used to take him down while in office.
This balloon drama, specifically Biden's strange paralysis regarding it, would certainly fit such a scripted happy ending.
Here, in consecutive Friday pasts from his true social account, Trump, whose image now wears QAnon-associated red, white, and blue facial war paint, reverence China and Ukraine.
Cue posts from October 2020.
Told us invent Trump would lose so Biden could be destroyed as a sitting president.
Here's being blackmailed by Ukrainian Chinese oligarch serving as a triggering advance.
Bubas Americanas 1 at the water cooler.
I read the New York Times the other day.
Biden finally shot down that Chinese fly balloon off the coast of the Carolinas.
Bubas Americanas 2.
He should have shot it down in the very beginning.
They already collected the data they wanted.
Saint Sugar.
That's what Trump would have done.
Blue Bus.
USA!
Editor.
Balloon Doom.
Probably drop Biden's already slow-dripping approval numbers down an additional point.
Let's see what the next act is.
Michael, your thoughts.
The balloon thing, I did not see this coming on my bingo crisis map for 2023.
But the weird thing about the balloon thing, I was one of those people who right off the bat, I was very concerned.
I was like, you've got to be kidding me.
This thing comes in off the Aleutian Islands, floats all the way across Alaska, which is not a small land space, down through Canada.
Canada doesn't say anything about it.
Now it's floating across the U.S.
So, and the narrative kept changing.
And here again, we get this idea that, well, We can't shoot it down because it might hurt someone when the debris falls.
Well, you can't shoot it down because if you put holes in it, it just leaks slowly.
And then all of a sudden, well, you know that there were balloons during the Trump administration, so everything was this subterfuge.
And like, instead of actually dealing with what this thing was, and I'll be honest, I don't really even now know what it was.
The other thing that kind of bugged me about it, people were saying, well, why would they even need to have the balloon because they could get all this information by satellite?
I would make the argument, and it's not original with me, Jason Burmas made this argument, I think, very eloquently, and I think it's a great idea.
Well, in fact, using a balloon As a low-tech, low-Earth-orbit satellite is actually pretty clever.
It has no heat signature, necessarily.
So, I don't know what they were doing with the thing.
Maybe it was surveillance.
Maybe they were just seeing how far they could get.
Maybe they were pushing both the U.S.
and Biden's buttons.
I think everything's on the table.
I don't know if we could have handled it any worse.
At the end of the day, I don't know what it was for.
But I don't know that Biden could have handled it any worse, and I don't know that we will know.
And when he finally took it out over the Atlantic, that was just a dog-and-pony show for us all to see.
Oh yeah, Uncle Joe shot it down finally, and it fell in the water, and we're going to try to retrieve it.
But the deal is, I don't think that we will ever fully know the true story of what was going on with that balloon.
And who knows?
I heard someone say yesterday, is it out of possibility that Biden worked with the Chinese to provide this balloon psyop to take off other things off of the table and distract us?
I don't know what it was, but it made the U.S.
look incredibly weak.
And then last night, he had the nerve, the gall to act like, yeah, when China invades our sovereignty, we take care of action.
It's ridiculous.
Great, great points, Michael.
Yes, yes, yes.
It made the United States look pathetic and weak.
Now, here are three alternative hypotheses why it ought to have been taken out right off the bat.
Number one, you could have had an EMP device.
I have a friend who's got a background in the area and said the Altitude was perfect for an EMP.
So, if it got over the middle of the United States and went off, our whole electric grid would have been taken out.
That's a reason it had to be dealt with early on.
And the idea, of course, of damaging a few sparse souls in Alaska.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
You have 330 million Americans to be concerned about, not a few people living in a nice igloo in Alaska.
Number two, a friend suggested, and I promote it, it could have been there, since the chips on our ICBMs are made in China, and they certainly have back doors, to neutralize our atomic warheads in our missiles so that we wouldn't have a nuclear response.
I do not know how that can be ruled out to this day.
And number three, there was a suggestion it was allowed to stay, given the DOD surveys every Talk about egg on the face.
United States in spite of full awareness to spy on militia groups in Iowa, Montana, and other regions.
But the very idea of allowing this to transit the United States was so frankly absurd on its face.
That was discrediting to our military.
And however they admit it to come out, it has been bad.
Talk about egg on the face.
This is colossal.
Further thoughts?
The EMP, that was one of the first things I thought, and earlier, it was towards the end of January, there's a documentary, James, you should check out if you get a chance, some good people put it together, and I believe it's called Power Up, Grid Down, but the whole thing is about the fragility of the U.S.
electrical grid, and in this documentary, they talk about, and I I don't have the math to back this up, but they put forth the idea that if you wanted to take down the United States power grid, you would actually have to take out nine particular stations to make the whole thing non-functional.
And I would argue that is the 21st century method of warfare.
You don't want to like decimate the place, you just want to incapacitate And capacitate everything so you can then come in and dominate and leave everything ready to move in.
So yes, the EMP issue, that was one of the first thoughts I had as well.
And here it is.
We don't know what was on it.
I think it's as good as a neutron bomb, which kills living things but leaves structures intact.
And when you're talking about nine, that's fewer than the fingers on two hands.
So you're talking about a piece of cake.
I think you make excellent points, Michael.
Excellent.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you.
Send fan mail, pro or con, to live-need-to-know-at-gmail.com.
Live-need-to-know-at-gmail.com.
Here we have preview of transcript of Biden's State of the Union leak.
My fellow Ukrainians, I mean South Americans, I'm sorry, American Samoans, I deeply regret that we were attacked by an air weather balloon during my predecessor's presidency.
This is something I will never allow to happen.
I will order any such devices shot down once they have passed safely over all U.S.
territory and continued on out at sea.
I apologize for being a complete disaster in every respect.
Tonight, I offer my resignation in order that the country once again return to a proper path of peace and prosperity under its rightful president.
Talk about Desire, you know, would that be true?
Michael, your final thoughts?
You know, I don't know what the next two years hold.
I don't think it's good.
I don't think that Biden runs again.
People were talking about after the State of the Union last night that that was kind of his, it was really more of a reelection bid speech than a State of the Union speech, which I would tend to agree with that.
But I just, I find it hard to believe that they allow this guy to run again.
And at one point I was even wondering, well, maybe the balloon fiasco is in fact to just further embarrass this guy.
But the guy does not have the goods, man.
And unfortunately, I believe the person that the DNC really would like to run, and maybe I've said this to you before, James, but it's Gavin Newsom, who's, you know, who's a completely empty suit hero.
He's very much like Obama in that he's an attractive man who speaks relatively well when he has prepared.
But he's been an awful governor for California, and if we want to make the United States California, and I don't think that a lot of people do, then they should be wary.
I don't know what's going to happen.
I don't see things getting better, unfortunately.
I see people waking up, and certainly shows like yours and the work we all try to do helps, but That vacuous sack of hot air that we saw last night, maybe it's Biden, maybe it's not, I don't know, but that's not what we need right now, and I hope that he doesn't run.
Let me ask you this, what do you think?
Because people have asked me before, do you support DeSantis or Trump, or are you like me, you're just going to support whoever's not a Democrat?
Oh, Michael, I agree with you.
They're going to run Gavin Newsom with Michelle Obama as their VP.
Michelle turns out to be a man with breast implants, so I don't know how the American people are going to respond to that.
She has a package that most women do not have.
So I've done a lot of research.
I wouldn't be reporting, and I can back up every word I say.
If you want to have a short take, go to my False Flags and Conspiracy 2020 conference, go onto my blog at jameshfetzer.org, look under events, go to False Flags and Conspiracy 2020, and check out Deception Galore, which you can download to your tabletop.
And you'll see how Hillary has used multiple body doubles, how Biden is not the real Joe, just as I'm reporting today, and how Michelle is a man who passes himself off as a woman.
It's outrageous.
Michael, you've done a great job today.
I'm just delighted to have you here.
My pleasure.
I look forward to further collaboration with you, my friend.
Let me just remind everyone, spend as much time as you can with your family, your friends, the people you love.
Because literally, we do not know how much time we have left.
And frankly, it could be a whole lot less than we would like.
