Need to Know (14 March 2023) with Brian Davidson and Owen Stevens

Time Text
This is Jim Fetzer in Madison, Wisconsin, joined today by Owen Stevens in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Brian Davidson in Houston, Texas.
We're here to bring you all the news you need to know.
We begin with a plan NATO is proposing to deliver to Zelensky for the dismemberment of Ukraine.
Very serious stuff.
A plan to divide Ukraine has been studied by the Americans and their allies.
It was preceded by the revelations of the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal, basically, that Ukraine has lost the war.
The fatal question is no longer whether Ukraine will be dismembered, but where its new borders will be.
Americans, like many in the West, are trying to prevent the worst-case scenario, which would be the complete collapse of Ukraine, allowing Russia to occupy Donbass, Kharkov, Nikolaev, Odessa, and more.
The American Enterprise Institute analyst Hal Brand revealed what the Biden admin wants.
Their goal is a Ukraine that's militarily defensible, politically independent, and economically viable.
This does not necessarily include the recapture of difficult areas such as the eastern Donbass or the Crimea.
According to the National Review, Western enthusiasm for the Ukraine issue will continue to wane until the Zelensky government is presented with a fait accompli at this point.
Ukraine will literally be divided with the approval of its so-called supporters.
Ukraine will not be able to resist Russia, and the West will need a huge amount of military equipment and access to counterattack and donbass in Crimea.
Mark my words, it ain't going to happen.
The fragmentation of Ukraine thus looks to be the most realistic scenario.
By the time the armed forces of Ukraine are exhausted and weak, which is the point we've reached now, be unable to withstand blows from Russian troops and therefore unable to reaffirm the 1991 Ukrainian borders.
A destabilized Ukrainian state on NATO's border may be an acceptable proposition in Berlin, Paris, and Washington, but not to Poland, Slovakia, or the Baltic states.
In the U.S., we both found fewer than half of Americans say they support aiming Ukraine down from 60% of last May.
Similarly, an Ibsos poll found support for statements such as, we should not intervene, or my country cannot afford to provide financial support to Ukraine, is increasing in France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, and the UK.
An outright Russian victory Resulting in possession of all of Ukraine, the annexation of its eastern and coastal regions of the Russian Federation, and replacement of the Zelensky government with a pro-Russian regime is, according to this piece, a distant prospect.
I'm not so sure.
The will of Ukraine is to recapture all the Ukrainian territory, including the Donbass and Crimean Peninsula, but it is not going to happen.
In the view of Mick Ryan, a retired Australian general, liberating the peninsula would require large-scale land, air, and sea operation in multiple axes against a key ground target.
No operations involving land and sea can be developed by Ukraine at present.
Putting real pressure on the peninsula might put Crimean territory on the table, but I think not.
A victory would require transforming munitions, weapons, platforms, and air defense, as well as maintaining training and information centers in perpetuity, as well as security guarantees from the West.
This would be a fragile piece, which could be undone by many factors.
A martial victory by Russia would also cement Moscow's cooperation with Beijing, paving the way for offensive Chinese weapons to be introduced into Europe.
It would also terrify American partners in the Pacific, who would either have to make peace with a rising China at the expense of their relation with the U.S.
and its allies, or fight an impending conflict in their neighborhoods.
Here's a tweet.
The West will arrange peace through the division of Ukraine.
The West allows for the end of the conflict in Ukraine by dividing it in two, most going to Russia, other parts to Poland.
Your thoughts, Owen.
I think right now what I'm thinking most about is Russia and its interest to protect its people.
And this is what Putin said on numerous occasions.
He's talked about Russian people and this being a fight for their very existence.
And so I think that it's a will of the Russian people to exist for Putin and for the Russians.
The other side of it is not necessarily American interests, but rather Biden and the globalists' interests in keeping Ukraine corrupt, keeping Ukraine under control, keeping it under the reins of the regime with their tentacles securely fastened to it.
And I think that's right now the two opposing forces.
I don't think it's an American thing at all.
I think this is a corporation-tied issue.
I think it's all about the World Economic Forum.
I think it's all about globalism.
I'm reading from the World Economic Forum website right now.
Ukraine was a perfect thing for the World Economic Forum.
It was a perfect thing for their For their interests, because what does it do?
It represents a global economic crisis, right?
These are the bullet points that they give.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine a year ago contributed to a global poly-crisis.
More than 8 million Ukrainian refugees have left their homes seeking safety.
Global energy prices have surged.
Food prices have also soared.
So all of these, you know, issues linked to, supposedly linked to Ukraine, and then their solution, as always, is going to be to exercise further control, more control, more power, to centralize more and more power.
Now we have China talking about The prospect of a centralized global governance.
That's what they just put out.
China vows it will be active in reforming global governance after Ukraine.
And this is one of the things that I think that the Ukraine war is contributing most to.
I think this is similar to COVID-19.
I think really this is just going to wrap up in and has always been about this great reset and more control to the globalist and corporate interests.
Well, bear in mind that the Battle of Baku, it seems to be the decisive pivotal moment that the Russians have surrounded, virtually captured this city.
They've left an access route, but those who are escaping are young kids and old men that have been recruited who have a life expectancy of four hours on the front line and a massive hit by hypersonic missiles that took place last week at the very tail end.
Took out a secret NATO U.S.
command and control center that I believe has vitiated Ukraine's ability to continue the fight.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well, generally, most Americans don't understand how Russia is absolutely slaughtering away at the Ukrainians.
Now, Russia has kept the gloves off in terms of taking out all of the critical infrastructure over there.
And has waited for quite a while to try to put the pieces into place to to do a total takeover.
I think a good portion of Ukraine citizens want to see the globalists bend the knee and let Russia have what they want.
Let me point out that this is exactly what Donald Trump had said that he was going to do right from the very beginning.
He said that he would have allowed Russia to take over parts of Ukraine that they considered to be threatening and kept Ukraine from making any attempt to join NATO.
So here we are, only hundreds of thousands of lives lost, and we're at the same place where we started in terms of Russia has the overwhelming power to win this war.
Now, I think Russia will probably settle this business if they can annex different parts of Ukraine.
I'm hoping that that happens.
I don't want to see any more death over this pissing contest for all these globalists.
But there's a lot happening behind the scenes that we simply don't understand in this particular issue.
And by the way, Jim, off question, but how did your debate go today?
It hasn't taken place yet, Brian.
I will fill you in this evening.
It looks as though it's going to be an airsets debate where we use clips of him because he's not going to show up.
During an interview on C-SPAN, fielding questions that took a total of an hour, and by my having an hour in response, it'll be a balanced exchange, but absent a primary player who seems very reluctant to show up.
Thanks for asking.
This is Michael Shermer and I debating 9-11.
Very interesting.
Meanwhile, how could Western intelligence have got it wrong again?
They didn't.
They had other purposes.
This is a completely brilliant piece by an Alistair Crook.
The West now faces a task of defusing the landmine of their own electorate's conviction of a Ukraine win and Russian humiliation.
Larry Jadson, former CIA analyst, writes, I no longer hold clearances, have not had access to classified assessments.
However, I've heard the finished intelligence being supplied to U.S.
policymakers continues to declare Russia is on the ropes and their economy is crumbling.
They also insist Ukrainians are beating the Russians.
Johnson responds that, lacking valid human sources, Western agencies are almost totally dependent today on liaison reporting, that is, from friendly foreign intel services, without doing due diligence and cross-checking discrepancies.
In practice, this largely means Western reporting simply replicates Kiev public relations lines.
But there's a huge problem with marrying Kiev's output to UK reports for corroboration.
The reality is the UK reporting itself is also based on what Ukraine is saying.
This is known as false collateral.
When that which is used for corroboration and validation derives from the same source, it becomes deliberately a propaganda multiplier.
In plain words, however, all these points are red herrings.
Bluntly, so-called Western intelligence is no longer a sincere attempt to understand a complex reality but, rather, has become a tool to falsify a nuanced reality to manipulate the Russian psyche toward a collective defeatism in respect not just to the Ukraine but the very idea Russia should remain as a sovereign whole.
And to the extent lies are fabricated to accustom the Russian public to inevitable defeat, the obverse edge clearly is intended to train the Western public This is no accident.
It's highly purposeful.
is inevitable, and that Russia is an unreformed empire that threatens all of Europe.
This is no accident.
It's highly purposeful.
It is behavioral psychology at work.
The head-spinning disorientation created throughout the COVID pandemic.
The constant rain of data-driven model analysis.
The labeling of anything critical of the uniform messaging as anti-social disinformation.
...enable Western governments to persuade their citizens that lockdown was the only rational answer to the virus.
It was not true, but the pilot behavioral nudge psychology trial worked better than even its own architects had imagined.
Professor of Clinical Psychology Matthias Desmond has explained, mass disorientation does not form in a vacuum.
It arises throughout history from a collective psychosis following a predictable script, as with the lockdowns.
Governments have used behavioral psychology to instill fear and isolation, to mass large groups into herds, where toxic sneering at any contrariness cold-shoulders all critical thinking and analysis.
It's more comfortable being inside the herd than out.
The dominant characteristic here is remaining loyal to the group, even when the policy is working badly and its consequences disturb the conscience of members.
Loyalty to the group becomes the highest form of morality.
That loyalty requires each member to avoid raising controversial issues, questioning weak arguments, or calling a halt to wishful thinking.
The group Think allows some self-imagined reality to detach, to drift further and further from any connection to reality, and then to transit into delusion, always drawing on like-minded peer cheerleaders for its validation and extended radicalization.
So it's goodbye to traditional intelligence and welcome, Western Intelligence 101.
Geopolitics no longer revolves around a grasp of reality.
It's about the installation of ideological pseudo-realism, which is a universal installation of a singular group think, such that everyone is passively by it until it's too late to change course.
Superficially, this may seem clever new psyops, even cool.
It is not.
It is dangerous.
By deliberately working on deeply ingrained fears and trauma, such as the great patriotic war for Russians in World War II, it awakens a tide of multi-generational existential plight within the collective unconscious, that of total annihilation, which is a danger America has never faced, for which there is zero American empathetic understanding.
Perhaps, by resurrecting long-collected memories of plague in European countries such as Italy, Western governments have found they were able to mobilize their citizens around a policy of coercion that otherwise ran wholly against their own interests.
But nations have their own distinct myths and civilizational mores.
If that were the purpose, to acclimatize Russia to defeat and ultimate balkanization, Western propaganda has not only failed, but has achieved the converse.
Russians have coalesced closely together against an existential Western threat and are prepared to go to the wall if necessary in defeating it.
Let those implications sink in.
On the other hand, falsely promoting a picture of inevitable success for the West has raised expectations of a political outcome that is only not feasible, but which recedes further into the far horizon as these fantastical claims of Russian setbacks persuade European leaders that Russia can accept an outcome in line with their constructed false reality.
Another own goal?
The West now faces the task of defusing the landmine of their own electorate's conviction of a Ukraine win and of Russian humiliation and decomposition.
There will be anger and further distrust for the elites in the West to follow.
Existential risk ensues when people believe nothing the elites say, plainly put.
This resort to clever nudge theories has succeeded only in toxifying the prospect for political discourse.
Neither the U.S.
nor Russia can now move directly to pure political discourse.
The degeneracy in Western intelligence did not start with a recent collective excitement at the possibility of neuropsychology.
The first steps in this direction began with a shift in ethos, reaching back to the Clinton-Thatcher era, in which the intelligence services were neoliberalized.
No longer was there the role of devil's advocate.
I'm bringing bad news, hard-edged realism to political leadership.
Instead, what was inserted was a radical shift toward business school practice of services being tasked with adding value to existing government policies and even creating a market system in intelligence.
The politician managers demanded good news.
And to make it stick, funding was tied to the value-added, with administrators skilled at managing bureaucracy moved into leadership jobs.
It marked the end of classical intelligence, which always was an art rather than a science.
In short, It was the outset of fixing the intelligence around policies to add value rather than the traditional function of shaping policies to sound analysis.
Owen, your thoughts?
I think the most important element involving Russians and this war in Ukraine is pointing out the strategy of the elites, the strategy of the globalists.
What are they going to do?
How are they going to do it?
We saw this in COVID-19.
This is one of the first instances, you know, that we saw it.
And Matthias Desmet, he wrote a book called The Psychology of Totalitarianism.
You should go buy it.
Barnes and Noble, you can pick it up.
Incredible book.
What he essentially says, and he's the world's foremost leading expert on totalitarianism and the psychology of how these people are setting this up, and really what it starts with is social isolation.
It starts with A feeling of loneliness and social isolation in a war or in, for instance, the COVID-19 pandemic.
And then as a result of that, as a result of the lack of social bonding that people have, then there's a high level of free-floating anxiety.
And this high level of free-floating anxiety, which is feeling anxious and not knowing why, contributes to a high level of free-floating frustration and anger because you don't know where the anxiety is coming from.
All of this then leads to a lack of meaning and a lack of sense making.
So this is the strategy.
This is the goal.
And you know, mass formation is a specific group dynamic.
It's historical examples are they're all throughout history, including the Crusades, for instance, witch hunts, The French Revolution, all of these things were mass examples of mass formation.
The main characteristics are that the impact is that the impact occurs most strikingly at the individual level.
So it's targeted towards individuals to ruin the individual himself so that he conforms to the group.
And then once he goes against the group, You know, there's loneliness because you're separated.
And so that's the strategy.
That's how they were able to get people to mask.
That's how they were able to get people to vaccinate three times, four times, five times for something that had a 99.98% recovery rate.
And if they can do that, then most certainly they can convince Russians, they can convince the world that Russia is losing this war, that Russians are at risk, you know, of For me, I think the last thing I'll say about this is that this is propaganda.
This is propaganda.
Right now about the current and collapse of the Russian economy, all of these things.
You know, it's for me.
And I think the last thing I'll say about this is that this is propaganda.
This is propaganda.
But the difference is, is that technology has become so advanced.
Technology has developed so much that, you know, this is a much longer lasting mass formation than we've ever had in history.
The French Revolution, all the crusades, witch hunts, those were short-lived because propaganda back then, we didn't have the type of technology.
But now, the amount of technology that we have to share imagery, narrative, and bias through mass media allows these narratives to take hold and grip people much harder and much longer than they ever have before.
Brian, your thoughts?
That's what we're witnessing right now with COVID.
That's what we're going to witness with every single false flag, every single government mandate, every single government demand that they throw our way.
And it's going to revolve around fear, trying to make civilians afraid, and then offering a solution to, like I said, last segment, which is to take as much power as possible.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well, the simple fact that you've got guys like Scott Ritter and Douglas McGregor on one side saying that the Russians are absolutely smoking the Ukrainians, and you've got on the other side the Western media propaganda outlets.
And by the way, this is a Western war.
Ukraine is just simply a proxy partner to the West to carry out a war against Russia because Russia's the last Chess piece, well one of the last chess pieces on the global board for global domination and global government.
They're historically Orthodox Christian versus the rest of the world that's already gone and erased God from their schools and gone with the globalist agenda and the woke-ism and things like.
But in order to end a war you need total honesty, And full disclosure, and that cannot happen because who would support the war if they knew the truth?
Which is why you have the left and the right, the dichotomy always playing.
Look, we've got Fox News and we've got MSNBC.
We've got CNN and we've got RT.
Totally different perspectives.
You've got, I mean, you could look all over the place and you'll just see it's just a big Foggy machine where no truth is spoken by anyone and the one that does speak truth is chewed up and spit out by the rest of the propaganda system that's paid to support one perspective or another.
At the end of the day, you need propaganda if you're a globalist, because nobody is going to support this woke, crazy agenda, this global agenda, if they knew the truth.
We're here to try to wade through a very murky, dark waters with you, but it is my suspicion that there are people of integrity out there that are speaking the truth that are being suppressed,
And the rest of them and the voices that are being amplified are clearly the voices of the machine speaking to you like a big robot, just speaking to you like an artificial intelligence system pumping out your Google results or deciding what to send to your Facebook profile or your phone.
Look, you have to realize that we are in a battle for our mind.
Our mind is the biggest hurdle that they have.
And if we can keep a free and independent and thinking and critical and rational mind, then we will never be controlled and we will never be slaves of the system.
Yes, yes, yes.
Well, we got this problem now because reality is breaking through.
The Russians are creaming the Ukrainians.
Ukraine is losing.
And how this is going to be broken to the people is a really good question.
I think they are up against it, and maybe they're going to attempt distraction as a primary means.
Meanwhile, J6 footage further proves the federal government is illegitimate and criminal from the second smartest guy in the world.
This article began four days ago when Tucker promised to release more damning evidence throughout the remainder of the week.
Since then, the Substax has been awaiting his follow-up reports, which to date have been censored by Fox.
Tucker assured his viewers yesterday he'll release all the evidence, even if his network continues to deny him his journalistic rights and subverting his contract, which stipulates that he, Tucker, has final cut on his news stories.
In the meanwhile, what Tucker has managed to release offers irrefutable proof that the mainstream and Uniparty are all actively working against We The People.
Our politicians are not just mendacious malefactors subverting the very Constitution they swear to uphold, but continue to lie after they've been caught fabricating J6 evidence in their kangaroo court.
Video footage literally shows the exact opposite of what they've been peddling for over two years now.
Not a single police officer died that day, despite the claim five had been murdered and five innocent protesters were killed, even though that information has been suppressed.
This is the very same reality inversion perpetrated during the COVID scan and the associated slow-kill bioweapon injections still being touted by these very same grifter politicians as safe and effective.
To this very day, innocent peaceful protesters remain jailed in the foreign nation of Washington, D.C.
on wholly fraudulent charges.
This is an outrage.
The only violent elements of the JASIC protest were up behind CIA agents embedded as agent provocateurs.
In other words, federal government operative broke all kinds of laws in order to entrap citizen innocent patriots peacefully and rightfully protesting an unlawful election.
And this election theft was in no small part made possible by the very agencies who had deployed their taxpayer-funded saboteurs to the J6 protest to ensure the optics of domestic terror violence I was attempting to further strip away all legitimacy to the claims that the election was stolen.
Even if the election were hypothetically not stolen, Americans would still have the right to protest as per the law of the land.
Remember the First Amendment, the right to petition your government for redress of grievances, such as, in particular, a stolen federal election.
Of course, we now have even more evidence not only was a presidential election stolen in plain sight, but the federal government, working under an installed Biden regime, is guilty of crimes against the Constitution, or we the people.
The Columbian Bugle tweets are freaking out big time.
Senator Schumer went down to the Senate floor this morning to condemn Tucker's January 6th tape segment and call for Fox and Rupert Murdoch to stop releasing more of the January 6th footage.
The Unit Party realizes its time is running out as Americans see through this charade of government more as organized state-as-crime.
Therefore, no American needs to comply with any law or mandate or agency functioning outside the scope of the exceedingly limited Bill of Rights.
Attempt Amendment rule of construct is especially dermane.
Accusing innocent people of sedition is a kind of projection onto the masses as a preemptive strike for crimes the government itself has been committed.
J6 goes far beyond government overreach.
As Jane Madison, the principal author of the Constitution, observed, The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined.
Those which remain under the state government are numerous and indefinite.
Following tweets offer both birth and context.
Solid majority.
When you show up to Capitol building in face paint and a buffalo hat.
More!
Police acted as tour guides for the QAnon shaman.
More!
What the funk?
Never-before-seen video shows Jay Wood Chansley, the QAnon shaman, being led through the Capitol by police the entire time he was in the building.
Police were directed by federal agents to grant access and escort peaceful protesters.
This is Entrapment 101.
The Columbia Bugle, Tucker's first report.
The footage does not show an insurrection or a riot in progress.
Instead, it shows police escorting protesters through the building, including the now infamous QAnon Shannon.
A more reality inversion brainwashing by the mainstream.
Breaking.
Tucker obtained footage of Brian Sicknick walking around the Capitol healthy after the media claimed he'd been killed by Trump supporters.
Compare these J6 domestic terrorists with real domestic terrorists who were finally arrested long after their crimes were committed, only because of overwhelming evidence, which became impossible for the government to whitewash.
One of the Antifa members arrested on domestic terrorism charges in Atlanta last night is a staff attorney with the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The FBI has historically used the SPLC as a source for who should be considered domestic terrorists.
The Southern Poverty Law Center is a one-world government node that is aiding and abetting the federal government in destroying America.
Is it any wonder that deranged Antifa lawyers are employed by this non-profit?
More.
Construction site burns.
Huge blooms of smoke and massive police response after Defend ATL for a Stop Cop City protest face off with police at the site of Atlanta's future public safety training facility.
I'm told Molotov cocktails were thrown.
Construction equipment is on fire.
Violent Antifa rioters remain largely uncovered by the mainstream, while lethal protesters get non-stop coverage and evidence tampering in the form of dramatic sound effects.
CIA creation adventurer and candidate Obama, appointed federal judges, are allowing for these government J6 crimes to continue.
The real villains here are the federal judges in D.C.
who have allowed the government to play every game to keep this evidence out of the hands of defendants, violating their oath to protect the rights of defendants and their due process.
The installed senile, adult diaper-shitting, ice cream-licking pedo-criminal poppet is nothing more than a placeholder for Obama's third term.
And this politicized joke of an attorney general continues to lie in plain sight.
Tucker calls Merrick Garland a liar after alleging five officers were killed on January 6th.
Joe Biden's attorney general, Merrick Garland, is a liar.
He just lied about something that is provably false.
No police officers died that day on January 6th.
None.
Not one.
Another low-IQ great puppet of the American ideological state apparatus continues to lie despite undeniable video evidence.
Jean Pierre condemns Tucker Carlson for telling a false depiction about January 6th and then says it was a violent attack that cost police officers their lives.
No police officers were killed on January 6th.
Owen, your thoughts?
I think a lot of this is mind control by repetition.
The amount of time that we spend talking about January 6th is something that I do not believe has any impact, doesn't have any impact on anything.
I mean, this was planned, this was coordinated, this was orchestrated to You know, at the very least, the very least, gaslight Americans, gaslight Americans, completely lie to them.
I think this is one of the things that we really just have to accept that the mainstream media, they're never going to get over this.
This is all they have.
This is the most important thing to them because it's the one link that ties Trump and most importantly, Trump supporters to extremism.
This is the one event that ties us all to extremism.
And so they need this.
This is a really, really important thing for the agenda.
This is a really, really important thing for the Biden administration.
And I think that the amount that Fox News is, and this is the interesting thing, they're almost doing it in a controlled way.
They want to show just enough to keep this mind control, to keep this gaslighting going, but they don't want the real truth revealed.
And Tucker, I believe, is trying to do that, but maybe he's hamstrung now by Rupert Murdoch's lawyers.
I'm not really sure.
Why?
We don't know.
We should know all of this.
This should have all been public information.
It should have all been public information right away.
We all saw the videos.
I saw the videos.
This was planned.
They let them into the Capitol.
They led them in there.
And this is the sick thing.
It's this kind of truth is just not going to get out.
I don't think this is something that's going to get out in the mainstream media.
I don't think it's something that they're going to allow because I just think that trust is at an all-time low.
I think that the American people, me, I can speak for myself, certainly do not trust anything that I see.
Anything that they say.
Anything on Fox I'm skeptical about.
Tucker's great, I like Tucker Carlson, but even, you know, even he can be a little bit naive at times, I think.
And not reporting, you know, think about this.
How often are they reporting a jab that's killed a million and eighty-eight thousand people?
And that's just the one percent to three percent reporting for the vaccine adverse effects reporting system.
They're not reporting any of that.
And they're not going to.
This is selective.
This is mind control.
It's repetitive mind control.
The easiest way to control people is to repeat, repeat, repeat the same narrative, the same thing over and over again.
It's just a way that they can dull down civilians, dull down people.
They don't want them thinking about train derailments.
They don't want them thinking about dioxins floating in the air.
They don't want them thinking about a vaccine.
They don't want them thinking about these things.
And this is just, I think, a despicable display of mind control and gaslighting.
And what we need to do is remove ourselves from this hysteria And leave it alone.
It was a thing that happened.
It was fake.
It was planned.
Nobody died.
Leave it alone.
We should stop bringing so much attention to it and try to pivot and bring attention to the things that need to be talked about.
That they will never talk about.
That the mainstream media will never focus on.
I'm so sick of talking about January 6th.
And you know, the sham trial that they had, the January 6th committee, it was the most annoying thing that I've ever seen.
It annoyed me so much, the fact that they were still, still talking about this, still trying to posit Trump and position themselves politically.
And that's who we're up against.
We are up against geniuses.
These are political geniuses.
We're up against very smart people that know what they're doing.
They know what they're doing.
And that's the really, you know, scary thing, is that they have been able to lie to an entire generation.
My generation.
I'm Generation Z. You know, I'm not confident that my generation is aware of basic truths.
Like, a man is a man and a woman is a woman.
We don't even know that.
You know, so it's very sad and I just think that we need to move away from this as soon as possible and get to the real issues.
I think Justice Bachmut was a pivotal event in the Ukraine war.
January 6th, a pivotal event for the American people because they're going to see the truth and it's going to expose the sham of the government.
So I believe it's one of the most important learning experiences in recent American history.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well I agree that January 6th is a very important date and I agree that what it was was sort of the trophy of Trump's presidency that he was able to expose.
Remember he spent the entire time as president trying to expose the media as the liars that they are and then just put the frosting on the cake with January 6th when we're going in there fighting a rigged election and You know, this whole charade, and I say charade, meaning that word, goes out in front of the American people.
So it was sort of the frosting on the cake.
Now, as for what is the truth, you know, when I go into court, I'm asked to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
So help me God, and I can commit perjury just by simply deceiving the court, even with improper innuendo or fabrications, even though it may be the truth or a twist on the truth, I can still commit perjury.
So the meaning of the words, the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth are beyond Your normal propaganda and spin.
And I would say that what we are in America right now is very much like that lawyer in that Tom Cruise, where he was the Jag guy against Jack Nicholson.
And you want the truth?
Well, you can't handle the truth.
Well, I tell you what, the American people very much cannot handle the truth.
The problem is that we would go into a mental spiral if we were to be exposed to all the truth that we know.
Jim, when I did my affidavit for the Supreme Court for you, I had to include the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
So it had to include exactly what I could observe and document.
If we had journalists that would tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, this world would be a completely different place.
The facade would go off.
And that's why I call Jim Toto, because he's like the dog that's showing the Showing the wizard behind the curtain all the time.
You know, that's a good thing.
We need to have that balance.
We need to be able to see the truth for exactly what it is.
And if you can swallow the Sandy Hook pill, or you can swallow the Buffalo Shooting pill, or any other pill that comes along with the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, then you'll begin to realize that whatever's barking out at you on your television probably ain't worth a damn.
Wonderful.
Very nice.
Very nice, Brian.
Excellent.
Just excellent.
Meanwhile, we have Bobby Jr., who may be going to run for president on the Democrat side for 2024.
When Fauci came into office in 1968, about 6% of Americans had chronic diseases, including obesity, neurological, allergic, and autoimmune.
By 1986, 11.8% of children had chronic diseases.
By 2006, that number had risen to 64%.
That's Fauci's track record.
Notice the gigantic leaps at roughly 20-year intervals, from 6 to about 12, and then from 12 all the way up to 64.
He claims he's protecting Americans from infectious disease, but he rarely talks about chronic disease, which is much more devastating than infections.
Childhood vaccines have gone from 1 to 3 to 72 doses of 16 vaccines that are mandated today.
Heavy stuff.
Meanwhile, the Dutch government sends in military trucks and gear as farmers plan the biggest demonstration yet after the government closes 3,000 farms due to global warming.
And of course, that's a pseudo-explanation because global warming is a fraud.
Thousands are expected to drive tractors to the Hague to oppose the government's plan.
To shut down 3,000 farms.
The government made the move to comply with global warming goals despite a heavy vehicle ban the day before.
It can be recalled the Dutch government is planning to buy and close down 3,000 farms near environmentally sensitive areas to be in compliance with EU environmental rules.
Thousands of farmers and climate activist group Extension Rebellion will hold the rally in The Hague.
According to Swedish journal Videl Emanuelsson, it'll be the biggest demonstration yet.
And I understand, by the way, the whole city was massively clogged with tractors.
Tomorrow—he's referring to Saturday—farmers are planning the biggest demonstration yet.
Netherlands is planning on forcing 3,000 farmers to sell their land to the state.
A land grab.
100,000 are expected to show up.
I'm on my way there now.
More.
Today is going to be massive in the Netherlands.
Thousands and thousands of farmers are making their way to the Hague.
The Dutch government plans on seizing 3,000 farms to meet climate goals.
The farmers are saying no today.
I'm here.
Retreat if you stand with the farmers.
No farmers, no food.
We're on our way to the protest for the future of our country.
More.
According to Peter Emmanuelson, military vehicles are already arriving in the Netherlands in preparation for the farmers' protest.
Military trucks arriving, bringing military gear.
Police warming up for the demonstration today.
On Monday, the Mayor of The Hague threatened to use military gear to stop rival climate and farmer protests.
The Netherlands Times reported, Mayor Jan Van Zandt of The Hague said he could indeed authorize the use of military equipment to remove blockades or tractors in his city on March 11th, on that date, the upcoming Saturday, while climate activists and farmers are set to demonstrate.
I'm not going to rule out the possibility that defense equipment will be deployed.
That is available if necessary.
He also asked police force elsewhere in the country to provide officers to assist.
We cannot handle this alone.
Also, to ensure the demonstrators are safe, Farmers' Defense Force hopes to attract 100,000 in The Hague on Saturday.
Climate activists from Extinction Rebellion also plan to block the A-12 motorway near The Hague.
At the same time construction attempts for the City Half Marathon will be underway, the annual race is scheduled for Sunday.
Manzanin said he will not consider banning any of the planned demonstrations for the time being.
He calls on those demonstrating to ensure they can cherish a great ride that faces him to be radically neutral.
But there are limits, he said.
Walking the road indefinitely with people or equipment is not an acceptable way of demonstrating, but a blockade?
I think that's a disruption of public order.
Owen, your thoughts?
Well, the farmer issue is a really interesting one.
I work, one of my colleagues is a campaigner in the Netherlands for a company called Citizen Go, and he has a petition out that you can sign at citizengo.org, and this petition is massive.
So many people are upset about this.
This is just the New World Order and the reset in full swing right now.
I mean, they're not even hiding it, and this kind of mimics what Bill Gates has been doing in some of the shady land grabs.
That are happening in the states right now in the way that they are trying to ruin our ability to be able to grow our own food.
I think this is also why the train derailments and the controlled burning of the chemicals was such a significant event because it's releasing dioxins in the air that then fall down on crops and make those foods toxic.
I mean, this is the other thing we have to think about with toxic foods.
It's actually back to the first thing you talked about, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and chronic diseases.
This is a very important thing that we have to understand in America.
We know the culprits of chronic diseases.
This is something that we've known for a very, very long time.
And we have to understand how serious this is that American children are not healthy 4 in 10 kids have depression.
1 in 5 kids have obesity.
1 in 5 have suicidal thoughts.
1 in 6 have developmental disorders.
1 in 10 with anxiety.
1 in 10 with ADHD.
1 in 12 with asthma.
1 in 13 with food allergies.
1 in 44 children in the United States has autism.
And then 1 in 285 has cancer by the age of 20.
So, you know, we're not a healthy country.
We're not a healthy generation if you look at the real numbers.
And this is the other thing.
We know the culprits.
The culprits are well-known, and we just do not have a government that wants to look out for the best interest of its citizens.
And if they did, we would see more regulation.
I'm not a fan of government regulation.
I am a fan of government regulation when it comes to toxic things inside of our food, toxic things in our environment, but the government is interested, actually, in including those things, okay?
Because big pharma and these institutions and corporations that benefit off of unhealthy Americans are not going to profit if we are healthy.
Acetaminophen is something that's found in Tylenol.
This is one of the main And well-known culprits of chronic disease in children under the age of 15.
Aluminum that's present in vaccines.
It's present in every single vaccine that you take.
High levels of aluminum.
Aluminum is also found in food.
It's also found in baking soda.
I think it's chlorpyrifos.
Chlorpyrifos in farming.
One of the leading known causes of childhood developmental issues.
Climate change as well.
Global warming is listed on the Children's Health Defense website.
Less well-known thing are electromagnetic radiation and wireless fields.
5G, for instance, 4G.
There's reports of people that are suffering from microwaved syndrome because of the amount of 5G towers that are being put up right now.
We're living in a world right now where there's so many free radicals floating around added by these electro, we call them EMFs, EMFs and EMPs that are floating around in the air from these cell towers.
There's stuff in flame retardants, fluoride, for instance, in the water, fluoride in toothpaste, food additives, glyphosate, lead, pesticides, plasticizers, ultrasounds, and then most notably vaccines.
All of these things are contributing to chronic disease in children.
We have unhealthy children, children that are at risk, and the most important thing that we can do is get back to basics, get back to natural, natural known cures, natural remedies and move away from synthetics and move fundamentally.
We have to remove and get away from this trust in these institutions that have done nothing but poison us and feed us full of toxic garbage.
Brian.
Well, on the issue of health, I'd say healthy is as healthy does.
It's our minds that leads to the rest of our health.
Look, we should worry about the things we can change and we shouldn't worry about the things that we can't.
We cannot change the electromagnetic structures that exist within our airwaves.
I don't worry about those as much.
I worry about what goes into my eyes, what would go into my children's eyes, in terms of what's coming across their sight on the On their phones or on their televisions.
And then as for food, hey, we get what we can afford to get down at the grocery store.
And if we can, we have the property of the space to go ahead and grow what we can, we'll do that.
If we even want to take it a step further, then you got to can what you grow and then you got to eat that off season and try to stay healthy the best you possibly can.
The human body is incredibly resilient.
On the issue of Dutch farmers, Look, this feels to me like another component of their penetration testing organization.
They've been toying with different countries and humanity trying to figure out what it is, how far people will go before they're willing to break.
In this case, I'm glad to see the Dutch standing up and fighting back.
I wish the Australians had thought so 15 years ago when they had their guns taken away and the New Zealanders.
Now they got stuck with COVID and look at the massive scale penetration testing program that went on.
with them, where they were put into forced lockdowns and forced campuses and forced vaccination.
That same forced slavery society has been happening in China for years.
Even Russia and Putin have had a certain degree of that forced controlled position.
Israel forces people to go and fight in their army.
So, There are things that have been being done to members of different countries involuntarily since the beginning of time.
The Dutch farmer protest feels to me like they're just simply figuring out how will a Western mind react to this sort of draconian lockdown.
And once they have that all figured out, they'll figure out the right combination and they'll let it loose on us.
Hopefully there'll be enough of us to stand tall and fight back.
Hopefully our truckers will stand up for America and we'll do what Canada did.
We'll see what happens.
Yeah, I worry that we may not have the wherewithal to oppose it.
Meanwhile, gas ranges are being targeted in a class action suit against LG.
Get this.
A class action suit in California alleges LG Electronics sold gas range stoves in the U.S.
without properly notifying customers of toxic emissions prior to their mergers.
The suit comes as the industry faces a tax and efficiency proposal by the Biden admin that would remove up to half the current gas ranges on the U.S.
market.
A California woman who purchased an LG gas stove from Costco claims in the suit she was unaware of the risks associated with a product before purchasing.
Sounds to me as though she's been brainwashed.
Mrs. Shirzazi relied on representations on the marketing material disclosing risks.
They did not disclose or warn products emitted harmful pollutants, such as nitrogen oxide.
Was it the time of purchase?
Plaintiff was unaware the product emitted harmful pollutants.
According to the latest court docket, LG has not yet responded to the claims.
John Taylor, Senior VP, said in an email to the Epoch Times, as a matter of policy, LG Electronics doesn't generally comment on pending legal matters.
The California woman in the suit alleges LG committed several crimes, including violating California's unfair competition law, false advertising law, and Consumer Legal Remedy Act, Along with breach of implied warranty, violation of state consumer protection statute, breach of implied warranties on behalf of plaintiff and the nationwide class, fraudulent emission, and unjust enrichment.
All of which tells me there's a monster law firm behind all of this, which is probably a part of the New World Order attempt to destroy gasoline engines and even the use of gas to cook food.
She claims the suit on behalf of other customers who publish these ranges.
There are tens or hundreds of thousands of class members, attorneys wrote, the site number unknown at present.
The woman alleged gas stoves are linked to respiratory illness, and LG knew the risk without properly notifying.
To make her case, attorneys point to recent studies, including one by Consumer Reports, that says gases can worsen asthma and other lung diseases.
They go on to cite Bloomberg as staying gas stoves amid air pollutants, outlevels the EPA and WHO, etc., unsafe and linked to respiratory illness, cardiovascular problem, cancer, and other health conditions.
Bloomberg cites reports from the Institute for Public Policy Integrity and the American Chemical Society.
Court documents claim about 40% of American households use natural gas stoves.
Other claims include nitrogen oxides are emitted, which can be hazardous to human health.
Harvard Health article cited states, a recent study published by researchers at Stanford calculates emission of nitrogen dioxide from certain gas burners or ovens rose above the standard set for outdoors by the EPA within a few minutes.
Other claims include that it's linked to cardiovascular effects, diabetes, poor birth outcome, cancer, cognitive issues with children, and asthma.
Since the 1980s, the natural gas industry, of which Defendant is a constituent, has worried that the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission would regulate gas stove emissions due to indoor air quality concerns.
Like other makers of gas stoves, Defendant monitors and keeps track of research on health effects of its products.
This is diligence large companies like Defendant routinely do.
Defendant is aware that his products emit harmful pollutants.
If further aware, the use of gas stoves increases the rates of respiratory illness in adults and children.
Charzac claims LG could have implemented available technologies to reduce the danger, including jet-powered infrared gas range burners.
Another design was the use of a flame insert, which cut nitrous oxide emission by more than 40% when the burner is on high and even more at lower settings.
Despite this, the defendant failed to use the alternative design.
Shows out an attorney's claim they should have warned consumers.
While the defendant is aware of the harmful health effects of gas cooking, everyday consumers are unaware.
Consumers shopping for a new oven, range, or stove have very little information about the health risks of gas appliances.
Consumers remain unaware because nothing of defendant's packaging or labels suggests gas stoves regularly emit pollutants that are harmful to human health.
She said that if customers knew of the defective design, the price would drop dramatically.
Alleges, too, she would have made significantly less for the product had she known it emitted harmful pollutants.
If consumers knew the truth.
Demand for defendant prices would drop.
Defendant would not sell products at current prices.
The defective design reduces their value.
Consumers pay for a stove that's safe or receive a less valuable stove.
One with a defective design carries significant and undisclosed air pollution risk.
The U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission advanced a request for information on gas stove hazards after it was filed by the consumer.
The agency announced it's seeking information.
They released a draft public notice for information, but it hasn't released the final, which should be published in the Federal Register.
Owen, your thoughts?
Well, this is really important because this is just a Biden efficiency rule.
So this is one of the things that happened.
I think this is a few months ago.
This was back in February.
The Biden efficiency rule would ban at least half of the gas stoves in the U.S.
Now, this is not about health.
This isn't about toxins in the air.
This is not about pollutants in the air.
I don't believe that for one second.
This is about pushing down a radical energy regulation.
This is about pushing new efficiency regulations that are going to effectively ban half of all gas stoves in America.
This is according to Department of Energy analysis.
And what we found was that the DOE that they found that all gas stoves in the U.S.
would not comply with the first ever efficiency regulation proposal by the Biden administration.
So this regulation proposal is about energy.
And companies that manufacture and sell gas stoves did not respond to the 50% projection positively.
They were desperate to show better numbers because their analysis is such a poor justification of what they're proposing.
So this is what was also said about the Biden administration and the attempt to regulate.
They said it's like they're in such a rush to regulate these products and they're trying to cover their tracks, but they're doing an incredibly poor job of it.
We've never seen this level of sloppy analysis from the DOE.
This is about, you know, this is simply about energy regulations.
What we found was that 20 of the 21 DOE tested models, meaning gas stoves or ranges, failed to comply with the energy output threshold set by this new proposed rule, which is 96 percent of the market.
That means only 4 percent of the current gas stoves on the market meet the extremely high new proposed standard, you know.
What this sounds like to me is banning gas cars by 2035 and Gavin Newsom.
Just a crackdown on freedom.
Gas stoves are not a danger.
They're not a danger unless you have to know how to operate them and obviously not leave them on.
They can pose that risk to fire safety.
But other than that, in terms of pollutants, I don't believe that for a second.
Like I said, asthma, All the other things that I talked about before, there are a myriad of other causes and known culprits that are going to be causing asthma in kids.
And I guarantee you gas, stoves, natural gas, it's just not on the list.
Excellent comment, Ryan.
Simple control mechanisms.
They can't control your gas stove the way they can control your electric.
They can't, they can't, they just can't do it.
It's not the same sort of mechanism.
It's just the same reason that they want to be able to control your cars and repossess your cars remotely.
My response to the article.
I love the smell of gas stoves in the morning.
Victory!
That's right.
I love the smell of Napalm in the morning apocalypse now.
Wonderful.
Very nice parallel.
Meanwhile, a shocking new poll led to a result that'll leave Trump at a loss for words.
The polling data is starting to pull in for the 2024 presidential, and the results are not really what anyone was expecting.
A shocking new poll led to a result that'll leave Trump at a loss for words.
Back in January, a University of New Hampshire poll showed Ron DeSantis leading Trump by 12 points in the all-important first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary.
Eight weeks later, the landscape has changed dramatically.
A new Emerson poll landed like a thunderclap, showing Trump leading DeSantis by 41 points—58 to 17—in New Hampshire.
The Daily Caller reports, Florida Governor DeSantis is down 41 points in New Hampshire, an important early primary state, while former President Trump rails ahead for the 2024 nomination.
The Senate's only received 17% support when Republican primary voters were asked which candidate they prefer.
And the former president topped with 58 percent.
New Hampshire's Republican Governor Chris Sununu garnered 7 percent, though the same poll show he has a 64 percent approval rating among the state GOP voters.
Other polling data suggests that Sanders was up in New Hampshire by 12 points back in January.
But the next week, the former president pulled ahead by 11.
Other polling data also shows a shift toward Trump since January.
Trump is clearly benefiting from the fact that Santis is not yet declared.
Trump commanded the attention of the political world for his trip to East Palestine, Ohio.
He also churned out video after video outlining his policy agenda, including declaring Mexican drug cartels terrorist organizations, ending the war in Ukraine, and stopping big tech censorship.
On the other hand, Trump is surging at a time when Fox imposed a soft ban on Trump and his family members to keep him off the air.
Once DeSantis declares and begins appearing regularly, Fox will have to put Trump back on the air.
At that point, it will be game on in the GOP nomination.
Owen, your thoughts?
Yeah, I'm really interested to see how this is going to play out.
Trump is, as always, attacking everybody in sight.
That's what he does.
And as much as I like DeSantis and I do think DeSantis is great for Florida, I'm not so sure.
I'm not so sure that he would make The best president, I'm not so sure and I'm not so confident that he is going to remain uncontrolled by the media, uncontrolled by the lobbyists, uncontrolled by the elites and the big corporate interests.
Um, and I think Trump is the man for the job.
I really do think that Trump, even though I'm still hesitant because of his vaccine stance and the fact that he was chiefly or at least presented as chiefly responsible for releasing the vaccine, I think that that's something that Trump has to talk about.
He must talk about that, must talk about.
The fact that his supposed project Operation Warp Speed has led to a million, over a million adverse effects and hundreds of thousands of deaths across the country.
I think that's clearly something that he needs to address.
DeSantis has addressed Vaccine concerns and he continues to address things along those lines.
I think that this is going to be really, really interesting.
I think that Trump's visit to East Palestine that really, really helped him.
I thought that that that gained a lot of news hype because Biden was nowhere in sight.
Neither was Kamala Harris.
And nobody in the establishment right now in the Democratic Party was talking about it.
Pete Buttigieg was on vacation with his gay lover as soon as the train collapsed and didn't do anything about it.
And so I think Trump going in there showing the kind of leader that he was was a very positive sign.
But mostly I tend to lean towards Trump just for a few reasons.
I know what we know what Trump is.
We know what he's done.
We know how he acts.
We know the kind of game that he's playing.
And I think that he is the worst nightmare for the establishment, the worst nightmare for the swamp in D.C.
because they cannot control him.
They just can't control him.
And that's the kind of leader that I think we need right now is somebody that's not going to be controlled, that's going to be fiery, that's not going to be the typical politician.
I think that that's really why I like Trump a lot.
But who knows?
I'd be happy with either DeSantis or Trump.
Well, I'm pretty big on Trump myself.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well, I'm big on Trump, too.
He's the greatest troll to ever stroll on through Washington, D.C.
Look, I think Trump's strategy this time around is going to be to stay out of the news and stay out of the crosshairs of all these Trump-is-Hitler types.
Remember that in the end, the battle The people are on Trump's side.
We know this because of the last election, okay?
There's no way Joe Biden got 81 million votes.
They had to change it up.
I imagine he might have gotten 22 million or maybe even 30 million.
But there ain't no way he got 81 million votes.
So he's got 22 million, maybe 30 million loudmouths that are behind him.
And what those loudmouths, they get so butthurt That they can't handle a single word that he says.
So this time around, he's being a little more quiet.
He wants to take a little bit more of a leadership role.
And he's allowing them to hang themselves.
And it's a really, really good strategy, frankly.
Because they're doing stupid stuff everywhere.
Everywhere.
So, remember that in the end, his battle is not against the people.
Unlike the Democrats, whose battle is against the people.
Trump's battle is against the elite, the globalists, the other billionaires.
Now, he has to have some of them on his side whenever there's a war.
You've got to have some people that are on your side.
So yeah, maybe he sold out some of our street grade values to some larger interests here and there.
But overall, I do trust him.
And overall, I do like him.
And overall, I do feel that the second time around, especially after four years, he's been able to build enough of an infrastructure to make a positive difference.
And I can't think of another man that I'd support over him.
DeSantis, not my guy.
Not gonna happen.
I don't like him.
As a matter of fact, I think you'll find me at Trump rallies with my MAGA hat on, too, this time around.
Love it, Brian.
Love it.
Love it.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you.
Send fan mail and pro or con to live.

One may or may not like Tucker, but after this interview, I doubt you can question his integrity and sincerity.
Best interview of Tucker.
And he's a man after my own mind.
Does not even have a TV.
Hard to believe the man with the most viewers on TV does not even have one.
Don't miss this one.
It's at whatfinger.com.
Politics has become something very different than it used to be.
It is the dividing line.
We're pretending that race is a division when politics has actually supplanted race and religion as the main dividing line.
Me?
I would add politics has permeated every facet of our existence and is actually destroying human relationships.
Dylan saw this coming many years ago.
Meanwhile, criticism of Donald J. Trump by Bennett and Davidson.
To be fair, I must take issue regarding criticizing Trump for the things DJD did not manage to accomplish while president.
The fact that you become president, as Bill Clinton remarked years ago, does not mean you are now in control.
But DJT did not realize the overbearing size of the American bureaucracy and power of those entrenched in it for decades.
They use their power to influence and deceive.
But DJT was no exception, forced to take on people he knew were no goods, Bolton, etc., and fire those who were competent, Steve Bannon and more.
The fact that D.J.T.
was present did not make him god or all-powerful.
He was deceived on a number of issues, C.V.
and V.A.X.
being the two most important, and was forced to maneuver in order to survive.
Let's not forget J.F.K.
was forced to take on L.B.J., who was involved in killing him, as Ronald Reagan was forced to take on G.W.
Bush, who unsuccessfully tried to kill him.
EJT ultimately understood this was not going to be a short-term struggle.
Instead, much longer, not without perhaps negative side effects.
It's a miracle he's not dead already.
There's an old disco song that goes, I'm not perfect, but I'm perfect for you.
Trump is exactly that, not perfect.
But perfect for what needs to be done in the USA.
Meanwhile, final thoughts.
Owen, yours.
I think that back to what you talked about at first, the politicization of everything.
So this is the increased division between people based on political affiliation.
It's been recognized by everybody in the country.
This is something that I talk about all the time.
And I think that outlets like Facebook and Twitter are blamed for increased hostility, disinformation, hateful attitudes spreading across the political discourse.
But I think it's probably politics itself that we have to blame.
The influence of social media is usually attributed to the platform's structure, because they show you what you want to see.
Putting people inside of a bubble, their explanation for polarization is that a serious disagreement with their policy stems from disinformation.
So that's what they're saying.
So if you disagree with this or you're putting something out, it's disinformation, which is just moving people farther and farther apart.
But I think that it's also just a problem with the fact that right now, polarization rather seems contingent on political information.
And so government officials and those loyal to them and what they're releasing and the fact that this is controlled information.
Only the information that lends to division.
Only the information that contributes towards division.
It's a form of control.
It's a form of selectively informing the public.
And I think that's really what it is.
It's not necessarily just Facebook and Twitter who are responsible.
I think it's also just the structures that have been put in place and the fact that right now we are in an info war.
This is an information war.
And then lastly, I would just say we got to mention the Silicon Valley Bank and some of the fallout from that.
I would be paying really close attention, guys, to the news when it comes to banking right now as we start to sort through the fallout of the failure of the Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank and the government's reaction to it.
So the question is now what's next and what's going to happen?
Is this going to lead to a recession?
It's going to lead to a larger problem.
I think that it will.
I think it most likely will.
There's some, you know, unless there's some shady things going on, which there no doubt will be.
However, this is something to watch out for everybody.
Something to really, really keep close at this moment because this impacts all of us and I think that this 2023 financial crisis has effectively begun.
Excellent, Owen.
Brian, your final thoughts?
So nobody knows what's going to happen tomorrow.
Nobody knows what's going to happen later on today.
I don't know what is going to happen with this economic system.
I've been concerned about it for a long, long time, dating way back to even before Barack Obama.
I don't know how stable our currency is.
I don't know how long we can keep this charade up.
I don't know if that's going to change anything.
I don't know how my life would be different With or without the money that I have.
I don't know, maybe it would be better because I would be a little more reliant on actual skills rather than a bank account.
But it doesn't really matter.
At the end of the day, what matters is how I live my life.
And the question that we should all be asking is, if these things are true, and we occupy this space, how should we then live?
And I think that, to me, is the most important question.
We're getting ready to do our planting in our garden.
We're getting ready to go.
We're taking good care of our family.
We're trying to be nice.
We're not creating any enemies.
We have great relationships with all of our neighbors.
We try to help people wake up and do the best we can, volunteering in the right place.
Doing the right things and taking care of and raising the right grandchildren.
So that's all you can do and that's all you should do.
Do the best you can.
Try to influence people positively and go ahead and don't worry about things.
I think you're much stronger that way.
Well, excellent comments from Owen Stevens and Brian Davidson today.
I'm just really very, very pleased.
I would just remind everyone as we approach a new presidential election that if we don't fix the voting system and the use of these machines to steal one election after another, it's all for naught.
We can have the best candidate in the world and they can run the worst, which is a close approximation of what happened last time around, and nevertheless the worst may prevail because the election was rigged.
That's what January 6th was all about, Americans recognizing they'd been deprived of their right to determine the future of their country by participating in what's supposed to be a democratic process.
The Democrats, ironically, do not believe in democracy.
They believe in power and control.
And I do believe more revelations coming from January 6th are going to make that increasingly obvious to every American here in the continental United States, as well as observers abroad.
That lesson must sink home.
Meanwhile, spend as much time as you can with your friends, your family, the people you care about and love, because we do not know how much time we have left.
