Iranian Regime Changes 00:14:34
Broadcasting, publicbroadcasting.org today because you can handle the truth.
I found out.
This is Jim Fetzer, your host on Authentic News, right here in RBN, live this 21st day of January 2026.
We begin with several developments related to Iran, one of which is a bona fide game changer.
According to Trump and Israel, regime changes the future of Iran.
Paul Craig Roberts writes: If Iran falls or submits to Trump and Israel, the cost will be paid by the loss of credibility of China and Russia, who do nothing but talk and never take action.
BRICS will be weakened.
The new Chinese Silk Road will be blocked.
Apparently, neither Putin nor Zai are capable of accepting reality and acting in their country's best interest.
Just as Putin stood aside while the Ukrainian government was overthrown and Washington installed its anti-Russian public government, stood aside again behind the Minsk agreement when Washington built and equipped a large Ukrainian army to retake the two breakaway republics in the dome dawn pass.
Putin is or appears to Paul Craig Roberts to be standing aside.
If Iran falls, subversive elements will be able to enter Russia and stabilize Russian.
I'm not quite convinced he's right, but he's certainly legitimate to express his concern.
We have had, after all, the defeat of the new color revolution.
This is from strategic culture.
We're practically accustomed to it by now, despite the many protests in recent times, falsely categorized as color revolutions.
When we see particularly violent and organized protests in Iran, we generally know we're dealing with the color revolution, or shall I add, so it would be called.
This, of course, appears to be a product of CIA and Mossad machinations.
Western reactions are so predictable and automatic, they seem mechanical, regardless of concrete circumstances behind the events.
The West always framed protests in Iran as something related to oppressed women, even when there's no connection.
It's as if the West hasn't truly gotten over the failure of the last large-scale color revolution attempted in 2022-2023.
That's why, although the protest raves that began on December 28th were led by unions and shopkeepers, which were, it would appear, related to concrete problems, such as a water crisis caused by years of mismanagement of Iranian aquifers and economic instability by thoughtless economic policies.
Images were likely to resonate with the destroyed Western imagination and scarcely to disguise perverse yearnings for sexual tourism and pornographic profanation of Iranians' women's bodies quickly spent on social media.
But we know the actual problem was very, very different.
And it was by virtue of using Russian supplied equipment that they were able to disable the protest movement by undoing starlink connections that were used to communicate and coordinate, which led to rapidly rounding them up.
Meanwhile, Scott Ritter thinks that the situation is fault.
It's 100% Donald Trump's fault.
And you have to ask yourself, was this deliberate?
Is it just incompetence, which I can also accept, or was this deliberate?
A setup so that Netanyahu and Graham and everybody else stops talking to him about overthrowing the Iranian regime because they no longer have the tools to do so.
One of our chatters writes in, poor Lindsay, he didn't get his war.
He didn't get his war.
He didn't get his war.
We only have a few minutes left.
We'll save the conversation about Russia for next week.
But Mohamed Morandi, a good friend of yours and mine, born in the United States, but a professor at the University of Tehran, has given a description of things remarkably similar to yours, who also said the attitude in the streets changed.
The last demonstrations he saw, of which he was a part, 3 million people in downtown Tehran supporting the government.
Yeah, this just strengthened, you know, when you talk about Damascus steel, you know, what makes Damascus steel so strong is the fact that it's treated in fire over and over and over again, compressed, hardened.
And this is what we do to the Iranian government.
I mean, my God, if we want to get rid of the Iranian government, I've said this all along.
I mean, I hope the Iranians don't read this wrong.
But if I want to break down your government, I want all doors open.
I want us doing business with you.
I want American business coming in.
And I want to expose the Iranian people to the benefits of the West.
Now, that's a failed model today, but the last thing I would want to do is give them the opportunity to strengthen themselves.
And we have done this repeatedly.
I remember in 2023, I spoke with the former Iranian president, the one who died in a Raisi, who died in the helicopter crash in May of 2024.
And he talked about the riots that took place in the summer of 2023.
He said it's the greatest test that the Iranian revolution had gone through since the revolution.
And that, you know, for a while there, it was touch and go, but they won and it strengthened the nation.
The 12-day war last June strengthened Iran.
And now this strength, it's Damascus steel, or in this case, we might want to call it Isfahan steel, but they're just making Iran even stronger and more difficult to crack.
The reality we need to come up with is we have to understand that we keep talking about Iran as a theocracy.
And yes, they have the supreme leader.
And yes, the Shia faith is central to the way that Iran views itself, but it's a functioning democracy.
I mean, in some ways better than our own.
Their parliament is democratically elected.
Their president is democratically elected.
The mechanism that's used to control the supreme leader is democratic.
The assembly of experts is democratically elected.
Iran is a democracy, and the will of the people is manifest in this democracy.
And the Iranian people support this government.
I know all the exiles out there, all the people who fled when the Shah fell, will take vehement exception to what I said, but the reality is reflected in what my good friend Mohamed Morandi observed and reported to you and everybody else.
Millions of people in the streets demonstrating in support of the government.
Could you imagine how an American president would feel if one day in every major American city, millions of people poured out into the streets in support of him?
He'd say, this is amazing.
I'm invincible.
What do you think the Iranian government's thinking right now?
Yeah, I think there's a lot to that.
And what I Trump's dangerous game in America, in Iran, rather, could be the end of America as we know it is yet another commentary, this time from strategic culture.
Is Trump serious about what he believes or bending airstrikes in Iran?
From his admin perspective, the campaign against Iran is achieving its intended results, sowing chaos as destabilizing the regime while flooding the internet with fabricated video depicting atrocities by Iranian security forces.
This is not to say the regime is not killing protesters.
It is.
But producing fake videos via social media clips may have the opposite effect.
Tehran could exploit the CIA Mossad disinformation campaign as cover using the Vagaboor to intensify its crackdown with even higher casualties, reasoning it has little left to lose.
Western media, of course, are not reporting the substantial domestic support the Iranian regime retains in its defiance against Israel and America, which Scott Ritter and Judge Napolitano were reporting.
Major outlets ignore a recent pro-government demonstration that brought over a million into the streets.
Iranians are savvy, even though dissatisfied with their government, recognize a game being played by Israel and the U.S. and refuse to fall for it.
Trump is using this period to negotiate with Iran, but it's worth noting that for a real bombing campaign to take place, the U.S. would need at least one, ideally two aircraft carriers in the region.
Currently, there are none, nor are any known to be heading to the Persian Gulf, despite the area's centrality to Trump strategy.
Now, more important than what I consider to be the real bona fide game changer.
Get this.
Also from the Truth Seeker.
Iran claims 10,000 kilometers ICBM test strategic shockwave that Tehran signals ability to strike the United States.
Iran's claim it has successfully tested a ballistic missile with a range of 10,000 kilometers, a capability that would place a continental United States firmly within theoretical striking distance represents the most consequential alleged escalation in Tehran's strategic weapon posture since the inception of its ballistic missile program during the Iran-Iraq war.
The assertion disseminated through state-affiliated outlets, including the Tasman News Agency, has been amplified by Iranian parliamentarians and senior regime-belied figures, most notably Moshe Zange, a member of Iran's marshals, who publicly stated, the night before last, we tested one of the country's most advanced missiles, which until now had not, so to speak,
been test trialed, and that test was successful.
Language, Iranian analysts deliberately frame to signal intercontinental capability rather than merely extended range.
The rhetoric surrounding the alleged test had been carefully synchronized with messaging attributed to sources close to the Revolutionary Guard Corps, with Tasin signing a new unnamed defense official asserting.
This test demonstrate Iran's unwavering commitment to self-reliance and defense technology, echoing Supreme Leader Alec Khuman's long-standing emphasis on strategic autonomy under sanctions.
While no independent intel agency has yet confirmed a fully successful international continental ballistic missile float profiles of 19 January 2026,
the conversion of satellite imagery from the Imon Kumani spaceport, social media signaling, and Iranian parliamentary disclosures as for Western and Asian defense planners to reassess long-held assumptions about Iran's ICBM timeline.
I guarantee saber-rattling and warmongering about attacking Iran is going to be dramatically diminished, just as enthusiasm for conversion to Islam diminishes among coalitions when they learn of its absolute prohibition against alcohol and no sex outside of marriage.
Meanwhile, the UK has banned a Dutch commentator for criticizing Stormer-related Israel, even while it welcomes illegal migrant hordes.
Under Kier Stormer's labor conference, UK has become a dystopian nightmare, criticizing that PM gets you banned from entry.
Illegals Wash Across the Channel 00:15:17
Meanwhile, boatloads of illegals wash across the channel daily, rewarded with hotel stays and taxpayer-funded perks.
Dutch commentator Eva Valongdinger Brock learned this the hard way when her travel authorization was revoked just days after calling out Sturmer's hypocrisy on immigration and free speech.
This blatant act of political censorship highlights labor's twisted priorities, protect the establishment narrative at all costs, even as unchecked migration erodes British sovereignty and burdens citizens.
And that's to mention, not to mention the 300,000 young British girls who've been gang raped by Palestinian hordes and not supported out of fear of being called racist by the press in the UK and the government there.
Outrageous.
What an abdication.
Meanwhile, the Saudis have joined the U.S. and the UK in returning 2025 in resuming strikes on Yemen.
This is very sad in my opinion.
2025 marked the deadliest year for Yemen with heavier campaigns from the US and UK, along with high casualty strikes from Israel, being joined by Saudi Arabia in December, which had carried out its own strike against Yemen since 2022, then started a large campaign at the end of December in the South and East.
The late December Saudi strike centered on the city of Al Mukalla and with a startup of a move to try to eliminate the STC, the Southern Separate Movement in Yemen.
This continued into January and is starting to set the state for a challenging year for Yemen in 2026.
The Yemeni are fierce fighters.
The Houthis are the only, it's the only nation to have declared war on Israel totally appropriately.
And I want to, I would like to see more Muslim nations do the same.
It hasn't been happening.
Meanwhile, and this is very interesting in the era of drone warfare, French UN troops in Lebanon have jammed and chased off an Israeli drone.
Blanch.
French group part of the UN interforts countered a hostile drone in southern Lebanon by deploying by deploying French main jamming rifles that rebelt the crap back toward Israel earlier this month.
Footage circulated on social media showing a group of UNFFL forces stationed in the southern part of Lebanon pointing a jammer at the sky in an apparent op against a drone.
French military command confirmed to Defense News.
The personnel shown in the video, filmed by local resident on January 5th, are French UNFL peacekeepers.
They were on foot patrol at the time when a drone began illegally flying over them in the municipality of Miesel-Jabal, after which they moved closer to their light armored vehicle.
We have some footage of it.
Yes, yes, yes, but very brief, very brief, but significant nonetheless.
Meanwhile, Stephen Miller criticizes Denmark's ability to defend Greenland in a bush to acquire the nation.
It's pretty bizarre.
Why does Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller Friday double down on the Trump admins' argument that acquiring Greenland is essential for U.S. national security?
The new domain of international competition is going to be polar competition, he told Hannity, seeking to justify Trump proposal to take over the Arctic island.
But it's almost certainly not going to happen.
Meanwhile, Make America go away.
Denmark is incented by the push to take control of Greenland.
And the U.S. stock worldwide is falling massively like a rock.
Copenhagen, on a cold, foggy afternoon in downtown Copenhagen, military veteran Fleminghallman, joined thousands of fellow Danes.
And what he said was the first botest he's ever participated in, opposing the Trump admin push to acquire Greenland.
I've actually never done this before, demonstrating, but this is very important to me.
Almutt 57, Dolt NBC.
He said he'd been following developments and felt I need to do something.
Meanwhile, are you sick of censorship?

I've opened up the door.
Help me if you can.
I feel like the money is.
Mike Turner, Representative, observes Trump has no authority to take Greenland by force.
While Representative Mike Turner of Ohio acknowledges there's a national security issue with respect to Greenland, he said there are also issues that checks and balances and limits on President Trump's authority to act without congressional approval.
The president's not wrong that there's a national security issue with respect to Greenland.
Turner, a key member of the Gang of A to chair of the House Intel Committee, told CBS Sunday there are national security issues there in the Arctic itself and with respect to Greenland, but there certainly is no authority that the president has to use military force to seize territory from a NATO country.
And certainly, this is problematic that the president made this statement and has caused, you know, tension among the alliance.
He's got that right.
Meanwhile, Argentinian women kick out Israeli tourists.
Hold up.
Remember, we've had reports of Israelis setting fire to areas of Patagonia, apparently to buy the property up with fire sale prizes.
Meanwhile, after Spain recognizes a Palestinian state and Israel threatens revenge, 39 are killed in an extremely strange train disaster, new train on new tracks.
Spain Tramport Minister Boante said that derailment occurred on a straight section of track that was recently renovated.
According to him, the train that derailed was almost brand new, meaning the accident extremely strange and very difficult to explain.
The locomotive was built in 2022, inspected on January 15th, found to be in proper condition.
The death toll in the train disaster in South Spain has risen to 39.
Spain Transport Minister Oscar Bowante got for Monday.
According to him, the number of casualties could increase.
Around 150 to were injured, 24 of them critically.
Now, you have to understand, there's no obvious physical explanation for why this disaster should have occurred.
It turns out another train was coming in the opposite direction and collided with a train that was off of the tracks.
Israel tends to be highly punitive.
They believe in a god of retribution.
If you're thinking about what hypothesis, if it were true, could explain the data, and you compare that this was a chance just by accident versus this was designed by Israel as retribution, that it was merely an accident, as approximately zero probability, that it was an act of just retribution, I would suggest very high.
Meanwhile, China has called Trump's new class of battleships easier targets amidst a mixed U.S. reception.
U.S. Donald Trump calls the vessel a new class of battleship, graced by his own name.
But China calls the Navy's concept of larger and easier target for the growing array of anti-ship drones and missiles.
China's got it right.
Big battleships are relics of the past.
They're antiquated military forces.
It's Trump vanity wanting to have a new class of battleship bearing his name.
A day after Trump's December 22nd announcement at Mar-a-Lago that he'd ordered the construction of a Trump class of 20 to 25 battleships, I mean, that's a staggering waste of money.
China's Global Times and state media outlet carried an interview with naval researcher Zhang Shoi, stating the type of worship envisioned by Trump would be a ripe target for China's anti-ship weapons, including the so-called carrier-killer DF21D ballistic missiles.
The larger size of a battleship also makes it more vulnerable, potentially an easier target, particularly when densely loaded with munitions, according to Zhang, a researcher at the People's Liberation Army, Navy, Military Academy Research Institute.
I'm all with him.
He's right.
This idea of a new class of battleships in the era of drones and missiles is frankly ridiculous from a military point of view.
And I would hope that it would not be funded, that would go down in flames in Congress.

Meanwhile, Trump's Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been.
This in a dream waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door.

My name is John, the founder of Black Out Coffee, and I started Black Out because I really love coffee.
I've always loved coffee and after traveling so much to Europe, South America, and trying so many different coffees that were so good.
And every time I came back to the U.S., I was so disappointed with the coffee.
So I figure that I had to do something about it.
The biggest difference is really on the beans and the roasting process, how we roast it, and how fresh it is.
The fresher the roast, the better the quality.
Here I like all of the coffee that's roasted within one to two days prior to being shipped.
So it literally gets to consumers' house within three to five days after being roasted.
If you like coffee, you have to try ours.
It's fresh roasted.
It's one of the best beans that we can get, and you will definitely see the difference.

Confabulation And The Great Reset 00:15:27
Republic Broadcasting Network, because you can handle the truth.
They'd seen his face before.
Nobody was really sure if he was from the house at all.
I saw a profiled day, oh boy.
The English Army had just won the war.
The crowd of people turned away.
An important piece by Larry Johnson.
Trump's confabulation are more serious than just a response to a bruised ego.
He begins: Donald Trump is not the only president who has been described as a narcissist and confabulator.
But if Trump were in an Olympic-style competition with Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, he would be the gold medalist.
Let's start with his confabulation about his claims to have settled ape wars, the aid conflicts.
He claims to have stopped or resolved on returning to office in 2025, include Israel and Hamas, Israel and Iran, Pakistan and India, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Thailand and Cambodia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Egypt and Ethiopia, Serbia and Kosovo.
While Trump remains desperate to be christened the peace president, he's ordered bombings of Syria and Nigeria, ordered attacks on boats in the Caribbean, allegedly carrying drugs, or the kidnapping of Venezuela.
President Maduro, stridently insisting on a forcible takeover of Greenland, not to mention the bombing of Iran, the provision of weapons and equipment to Ukrainians to continue hostilities against Russia, and of course, the slaughter of the Palestinians, which could not take place had he not continued to provide the weapons necessary for that purpose.
It's ridiculous that Donald Trump should be making those claims.
Ridiculous.
Meanwhile, responsible statecraft as a memorial for Ambassador Robert Hunter warned about NATO expansion.
His work at both the Carter and Clint admins reflected sober analysis and the pursuit of engaging Russian Iran rather than isolating them.
In other words, he was a wise man.
The world of foreign policy restraint at Board today with the passing of Robert Hunter, American diplomat, U.S. ambassador to NATO in 93 to 98.
He also served as a senior official on both the Western, European, and Middle East deaths of Jimmy Carter's National Security Council for decades.
Hunter was a prominent, sober, and necessary voice of restraint in Washington.
To readers of responsible statecraft, he was an occasional author, shared insight, particularly on Europe.
To those of us who knew Robert personally, he was a mentor and a friend whose tremendous knowledge was matched only by his generosity in sharing it.
Hunter's strategic vision was forged during the post-Civil War transition, Cold War transition, a period of both immense promise and profound peril.
While the demise of the Soviet Union prompted many to declare a unipolar end of humanity, Hunter focused on seizing the momentum to build a durable peace and stability.
He was a good man.
We could use more like him today.
Meanwhile, just to show how far the U.S. has fallen in the eyes of the world, a new poll has shown only 16% of European Union citizens consider the United States to be an ally.
Here it is.
That's an incredible number.
Only 60% of EU citizens consider the U.S. an ally, even in the U.K., it's down to a meager 25%.
In fact, perceptions of the U.S. as an ally are in complete collapse globally, with only India as a very odd exception.
Here we have the results.
India, 49%.
South Korea, 40%.
Brazil, 26.
UK 25, South Africa 19, Ukraine 18, EU 16, Turkey 11, China, 10, Switzerland, 8, Russia, 2, Russia, 2.
Hardly surprising, Russia doesn't regard the EU as America as an ally, but the European Union.
Here's Robert David Steele, of course, long since deceased, talking about funding wars and making profits.
It's nice to be reminded of what someone I regarded as an exemplar of intelligence had to say about these issues.
All wars are about making a profit for the 1% by consuming the 99%.
Iraq was a banker's war.
All wars also have a very strong Zionist component.
Let me say first that banks are a massive form of legalized crime.
Banks basically create money out of thin air for the 1%.
They just create a billion dollars for themselves out of nothing.
They just say, we have a billion dollars, and everybody believes them.
And then they lend this billion dollars to people and charge interest.
So they're creating money and earning interest they don't deserve.
Banks are a complete fraud.
Countries need to take responsibility for their currency.
They should not be allowing the Rothschilds in the Vatican and the Chibat Jews to control their economy.
As one very famous banker said one day, I don't care who makes the loss.
If I manage the money, I'm making the loss.
Yeah, controlling the government.
And of course, that was Rothschild.
I admired him greatly.
His death was a great loss.
Meanwhile, we have a top Catholic cardinal saying U.S. foreign policy raises moral questions.
This is one the government wants us to press.
Echoing concern to Pope Leo XIV over a new era of unilateralism and warfare.
The three highest-ranking U.S. Catholic Archbishop Monday said the moral foundation for Americans' actions in the world has been thrown into question by resurgence of the use or threat of military force, including in Venezuela and Greenland.
The archbishops, Colonels Blake Coopet of Chicago, Robert McElroy of D.C., and Joseph Tobin of Newark, in a statement released Monday, amplified comments by Leo, the first U.S.-born pontiff, who earlier this month lamented the demise of multilateralism.
In 2026, the United States has entered into the most profound and searing debate about the moral foundation for America's actions in the world since the end of the Cold War, the Archbishop wrote.
The events in Venezuela, Ukraine, Greenland have raised basic questions about the use of military force and the meaning of peace.
They are, of course, completely bribed.
Meanwhile, Navy's top admiral wants to tailor worship deployment to specific missions.
This, to me, as a former Marine Corps officer, is absurd.
Of course, you always or should always tailor deployments to specific missions, but it appears that has not been taking place.
Here we have now a fellow named Eric Dubai claiming that the world overpopulation claim is a hoax.
One of the two biggest lies ever told.
And I think the other is what if I showed you how to reset your blood sugar to under 100 in just seven seconds?
Forget insulin and metformin.
Coming in a one pack, a two pack, and a four pack, this changes the outlet game.
So I'm missing a screw that goes right in the middle.
The official numbers for world population released by the United Nations, as of now, have just surpassed 8 billion people living on Earth.
In 1800, there were only 900 million members of the human family spread across the world, raising to 1.65 billion in 1900, and skyrocketing to nearly 7 billion in the year 2000.
Now, in 2023, we have allegedly just passed the 8 billion mark, with UN predictions claiming these statistics will continue to rise until reaching a whopping 11 billion at the turn of the next century.
Given past failures and the many lies spewed by the UN during recent world events, however, it is fair and justified to remain skeptical of such statistics and to do some independent investigation before blindly believing.
By collecting official statistics and doing your own math, it is difficult to find a way for these numbers to add up.
For example, India supposedly has a countrywide population of well over 1.4 billion citizens.
But when practical calculations are made using the UN's own numbers, how they could possibly conclude such a high figure is clear as mud.
Taking their official figures of populations from the largest 300 cities in India, from 12.4 million in the biggest city Mumbai, to just over 100,000 in the 300th placed city of Aurangabad, and adding them all together, that barely accounts for 200 million of this supposed 1.4 billion.
That means we are meant to believe that the other unaccounted for 1.2 billion Indians are somehow spread out across tiny towns, villages, and the countryside.
If all the 300 places with the largest populations in India taken together only account for 200 million people, it is statistically and geographically impossible for there to be another seven times this number mysteriously hiding out in the remaining small towns and villages with populations all lower than 100,000.
And of course, part of the great reset in the depopulation agenda is to cut that presumptive 8 billion down to 500 million.
But whether all the claims about overpopulation don't take into account the area of Earth that is habitable and the actual capacity of Earth to sustain a population, there's good reason to doubt whether the Earth is actually facing an overpopulation problem, which may be more myth than reality.
Meanwhile, Trump admin discussed offering sanctuary to Jews in the UK.
This is from Middle East I.
The U.S. is considering granting a silent British Jews according to a report published by the Telegraph Sunday.
President Trump Burstow lawyer Robert Carson told the British newspaper he'd been in talks with State Department about providing sanctuary for Jews fleeing anti-Semitism in the UK.
Carson, who is Jewish himself and born in Manchester, said the UK was no longer a safe place for Jews and he saw no future for them there.
This is kind of bizarre.
In October 2025, two brace Jews were killed at the Hayton Park Hebrew Congregational Synagogue in Manchester.
It's certainly not an unattractive proposition.
It's a highly educated community.
I've spoken with people at the state, and I mentioned my role of the Holocaust Museum Board.
But so many laws, so many lies, so many exaggerations, so many false claims have accompanied all of the purported history of Judaism.
It's really embarrassing the extent to which we have basically been played again and again and again, including, of course, the absurdity of the six million.
Meanwhile, here we have a report from Truthseeker.
Minnesota crisis is about more than just illegal migration.
They're setting us up to fight each other so they can crack down, expand government power, and further centralization in the hands of a few.
In a previous article posted on January 8th, I employ a reader to keep an eye on Minnesota.
Likely to be more than meet the eye going on there, sure enough.
The situation continued to dominate the news cycle.
Standoff between anti-ITE protesters and federal officials continue to fester.
Now the president placed hundreds of U.S. Army troops on standby, ordering them to get ready to enter the fray.
On the left, they responded by storming churches and other predictably irresponsible behaviors where the governor, however, I add Waltz, as I previously reported, is planning to use the National Guard to operate against ICE.
Meanwhile, here's a rather important observation, I think, about ICE.
Why Are They Using Cell Phones? 00:03:27
Everybody in the United States, hear this.
You could download it.
You could share it.
You don't need to tag me.
It is just information that you guys need.
When the big beautiful bill was signed into legislation via Congress, it allocated $170 billion.
That's already happened to ICE, to the Department of Homeland Security.
There is another bill that Congress is about to pass for another $28 billion to go to the FBI, as well as ICE.
ICE now has the largest law enforcement budget.
It is larger than all law enforcement agencies combined.
Okay.
Why are they funneling them so much money?
They are building their own private prison system.
This is already underway.
It is already being done.
It is overseen by the FBI.
They don't answer to the judges.
They don't answer to anybody but the president of the United States.
So the president of the United States of America will have his own prison system.
It is an industrial prison system.
He profits off of people being in jail.
Okay.
That's how the American prison system has always worked.
ICE agents are able to act with full impunity, and they are going to get paid for imprisoning you.
Another story.
Eye scanning for facial recognition for assault.
They are watching us.
They are admitting they're watching us.
They're building these databases to watch us, and many people are cheering it on.
Don't be naive.
Don't say this is the only way to crack down on illegal immigration.
That is not true.
That is a lie.
Just like they fed the lie to all of these people that everybody needed a COVID-backs passport in order to live life because that was going to keep you safe.
It's happening.
Of course, right now, the excuse is they're using it on illegals in order to get them out of the country.
And of course, this would never be used against American citizens, or would it?
We're going to create a database.
Those people that are arrested for interference and penal assault, we're going to make them famous.
One question that many have had is: why doesn't ICE have body cams?
Why are they using cell phones all the time and recording people?
Maybe they aren't recording, but they're scanning faces instead.
Read this caption under Getty: A Border Patrol agent scans the face of a driver as they stop and question him in the streets during an immigration enforcement operation.
So they're scanning this person's face.
Now, you might say, well, they're only scanning the illegals.
How do they know who's an illegal?
Before they scan them.
So when you see all of these ICE agents going around with their cell phones, they might be recording in order to make sure that they can shake you down later.
But they're also.
I think Im Agerson made some rather important points there.
Very disturbing.
Why are they using cell phones rather than body cams, for example?
We'll be right back.

Just listen to what some people have to say.
Several years ago, I was developing a very severe situation.
I called it my flippy heart.
It just was doing not good things.
And I did not want to go to a medical doctor because I just knew they would give me a cover-up pill.
I didn't want to get onto that sort of thing at all.

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, I say it's all right.
Well, the half a dozen stories that I haven't covered, here's one that just hit me like a bullet right between the eyes.
That the Democrats have been in Virginian control for less than 48 hours, and they've already introduced a bill to ban hand counting of ballots.
In other words, they're going to make it illegal to do hand counts in Virginia.
If this bill passes, Elon Musk reports about, wow.
Democrats have been in power in Virginia for less than 48 hours, and they've already introduced a bill to ban the hand counting of election ballots.
Prohibits such ballots from being counted by hand for any reason, for any reason.
It is that passage from the bill.
Election results, counting machine-readable ballots.
Requires ballot scanner machine to be used to count machine-readable ballots and prohibits such ballots from being counted by hand for any reason or purpose, not specifically authorized by law.
This is very, very disturbing.
Maybe it's a misreading, but it sure sounds like they want to guarantee they can steal elections using electronic voting machines and not be outed by hand counts.
Meanwhile, other stories.

NFL athlete fined over a Palestine solidarity message.
I don't like the sound of that.
What do we got?
Houston, Texas linebacker Aziz Al Shahr was fined by the NFL for displaying a pro ballot.
Didn't even stop the genocide message during a televised game.
ESPN reported on 18 January, the linebacker bore the message out of solidarity beneath his eyes, beneath his eyes.
Ah, I see.
He's got a strip of tape beneath his eyes that says, drop the genocide.
My God, we should all be saying that.
The brief display followed on earlier elite penalty for wearing some messages during live play.
Al Shar was fined 11,593 the previous week for violating NFL uniform rules that prohibit and approve personnel and political messages and was warned that repeating the act could lead to removal, pure-video about signing.
You could, first of all, if you know kids that have been amputated, were you disappointed that Talik fined you for this?
Uh, I knew you know that that was a fine.
I just said what I was doing, as far as like, I mean, for example, Steph, he wears the I tape, you know, says I know him with stuff on it, and they always find you.
But I was told that if I wore that in the game, I would love a long song.

Profit Motive and Underpopulation 00:15:42
Several callers lined up, each of whom is known for having strong opinions.
Let's begin with Paul in New Jersey.
Paul, join the conversation.
Hello, Mr. Fetzer.
You know, whenever I listen to these people in their think tanks coming out saying that the world is underpopulated and we could fill up the world with more people, I assume that think tank is being sponsored by some capitalist.
You know, because look at one of the people in the forefront of this crying about underpopulation is Elon Musk.
And yet, he's got a motive for that.
And that motive is the profit motive.
Because when you have a big supply of labor, that means Mr. Capitalist can pay less wages to his employees.
And that's his motivation.
It's a very important motivation, too.
Now, Carol Quigley, in his book on Tragedy and Hope, he talked about how he compared the Chinese to the Americans in the development of America in the 1800s.
And if you think about America's founding, it was vastly underpopulated.
And so, because of the scarcity of labor, the wages were good for the American workers, farmers, and pioneers.
You know, they could afford a Kentucky rifle.
Well, the Chinese, because they were just overpopulated with people even back in the 1800s, they would always have this struggle to even get enough to, they couldn't even afford to get guns.
That's why they didn't have a gun culture.
They couldn't afford them.
So, you know, a lot of these people realize scarcity of people drives up wages.
Likewise, during the Black Death in Europe, about a third of the population perished afterwards because of it, the wages of the survivors were fantastic and it really helped in the development of Europe and modernizing and advancement in Europe because of the scarcity of labor.
And if you are an employee, you want a scarcity of labor so then you can demand high wages.
And if everybody's getting high wages, you will have a thriving middle class and then everybody prospers.
And then the children can actually be spend more time not toiling and the people less toiling who can actually put their effort into higher education so they can become engineers to work for Mr. Musk at SpaceX.
Now, proof of that, you know, of human overpopulation is pretty evident when you just think about the biomass or you think about which species are very populated in the world today.
Now, among, you know, of course, insects, fish, and birds are going to be on the most common animal species out there, which is the fact.
But when you think about mammals, it really turns out there's only one mammal more populated on earth than humans, and those are bats.
Supposedly, they're hard to count, but they say there's about 56 billion bats in the world.
And one other one, then there's rats and mice, but some people even say it might be tied with humans.
Then we have 8 billion humans, 1.5 billion cattle, 1.2 billion sheep, 1.5 million whales.
That's it.
There's so many whales.
Half a million elephants, about a billion cats, and about 900 million dogs.
And those are animals that really are service animals to humans in many instances.
And there's only a million bears.
So, you know, for people who think the world is underpopulated, I urge them when you fly across the country, get a window seat.
Look out the window when you're flying across the United States.
And guess what you don't see?
You really don't see that much, you know, like unending empty forests or forests.
No, what you see are farm fields dotting the fruited plains.
And then when you get out west, what you see is basically desert and people really can't live there because there's not enough water when you get out west.
That's why the west is sparsely populated.
And so don't fall for this, oh, we should have more people, you know, scam and just fill up the endless, you know, expanses, which by the way, there aren't many endless expanses left on the planet Earth, except maybe the Brazilian rainforest.
And so these people, these are capitalists pushing this, in my opinion, Mr. Spetzer.
And their motivation is profit and low wages.
And I'd like to hear your comments.
Well, I think the population question is very complex.
And what, you know, Earth can sustain in terms of size of population depends upon multiple factors.
It's like looking at a Cuban economy and saying it's not very successful.
That's because of artificial constraint sanctions.
Right now, many farms are being bought up or put out of business.
I mean, there are all kinds of efforts now to control the population of the world.
But by some estimates, the whole world population is going to be packed into an area, I think, not much larger than the size of Texas.
It's a question of the quality of life that is sustainable indefinitely on Earth, given a particular size of population, Paul.
I don't think it's all clear-cut.
And then I therefore suggest, you know, it's rather more complex.
But I love your citing all these numbers.
I find that fascinating.
You have a knack for making arguments.
I like that.
Whether I agree or disagree with your conclusions, you are very good at putting together arguments.
Yours.
Yeah, no, I'm just saying I don't really think, I don't see how if we went like if, you know, if Japan's population declined from a high of, I think it was like about 130 million, and because they're having low birth rates, so their population goes down to like 60 million, like their population was maybe in the late 1800s.
At least Japan will be populated with Japanese people.
You see, this is also this argument is the foot in the door pushed by globalists to get Western societies to accept immigrants.
That's what this sneaky little rat method of this is.
That's what they're doing too.
It's like Elon Musk.
He's a great example of this.
Remember during the campaign at one point, they were floating the idea of increasing H-1B visas.
Right?
And why was Mr. Musk pushing that?
Oh, because he wants cheap engineers to push down the wages of his American engineers, because God forbid he pays a higher wage to white American engineers in the United States.
You see?
And this is the method they use to say, oh, well, we're underpopulated.
So we can bring in more people from India.
And it's usually these overpopulated countries who have wrecked their own societies because of their overpopulation.
And by the way, what happens if these people spill over into other cultures and breed like they do in India?
And then before you know it, Texas becomes majority Indian and becomes Indian.
And so it's really a very subversive, anti-white agenda coming from these underpopulationists or underpopulationists, I would argue them.
And that they're really doing it just for a profit motive.
And it destabilizes countries.
It undermines cultures, right?
And it's really just treacherous, in my opinion.
And Elon Musk, now he's single-handedly, he's trying to repopulate the world himself.
He's up to like his 14th kid now, right?
But, you know, if he wants his employees to have more children, then pay him a higher wage and put it, you know, like promote like children within SpaceX and Tesla and his companies.
And maybe he'll have larger families.
Paul, thank you.
Yeah, thanks for a very interesting line of argument.
Give me a final thought.
No, that's about thumbs up for me, Mr. Pescher.
Thank you.
That's good.
It's good.
It's good.
JP in Chicago.
Join the conversation, JP.
Have we got him?
Shouldn't be there.
No, JP, huh?
No, JP.
Maybe he'll come back.
Layla, Layla, I'm delighted to have Layla here.
Layla, join the conversation.
Yeah, hi, Jim.
Sorry, I'm just climbing up the stairs from the laundry room.
I agree with Paul.
When were our two countries, the U.S. and Canada, when were we at our best?
When we had smaller populations and they were both more homogeneous.
One thing I'd like to point out, excuse me, I ran up the stairs.
One of the things I'd like to point out is the doctor that I've had for 30 years is now retiring.
Almost every single one that is available that is taking new patients is part of a system where they're employed.
And first of all, we have a monopoly here.
Every province in Canada has a provincial health system.
They control everything.
So they also control the bodies, the administrative bodies that license the physicians.
So here in Ontario, actually, it's in all of Canada.
I watched a committee meeting, a federal committee meeting, where they were discussing why were there so many Canadian-born and Canadian-raised doctors forced to work outside of Canada once they had graduated and finished their internship or their residency.
And it was because they had been excluded.
Each medical school or each hospital was paid $100,000 for each foreigner that they took in.
So I watched a couple of Canadian doctors who looked like they were on the verge of tears.
I was forced to go out of the country to go to medical school.
I was forced to stay out of the country to do my internship or residency.
And then when I tried applying for a license to come back and practice in Canada, I was rejected.
After the third time of being rejected, I stopped trying.
So they now have one of the recent ones that's advertising, oh, we're taking new patients.
So I called up and here are the rules.
You only have one 20 minute visit a year.
The rest of the time, it's a single issue, 10 minutes.
They will no longer fax prescriptions.
You have to pay $4 to get into the parking lot.
So you know what that's all about.
And what are the names?
Every single one of them, most of them were from Africa.
Now, you've heard me talk about how much I admire people of African heritage, but those are Africans who were raised within our Western culture.
The people that we forcibly kidnapped and brought, dragged over here and helped build the U.S. In Canada, we never had slavery.
This is where they escaped to.
But now we've got Africans who have been brought here.
Not only that, the woman who's the federal representative in the federal parliament in my riding is an African woman who came from, I think, Burlundi, never campaigned.
She got on city council.
There was her name.
Then she ran for the federal liberals, immediately got elected, and Mark Carney made her the deputy prime minister or something equivalent.
She who came here as an adult, had to be helped to get her, because she had been raised with French.
She went to the University of Ottawa, where parliament is located.
I have checked that handsert to see how many times has this woman stood up in the house, in the parliament, to speak on behalf of her constituents.
How about zero?
When I call her employees, when has she ever spoken up for our riding?
They don't know they'll get back to me.
So she sits there collecting hundreds of thousands, which I might add with her big fat butt.
She cannot be reached by phone.
Let's get rid of them.
I don't care, not just the U.S. ICE, please come up here and get rid of the foreigners that are going to make their way to the U.S. because they're going to come to the U.S. eventually.
The smaller the population, the better off we all are.
We have to get rid of those oligarchs who have bought up the agricultural land so that they can control what we eat.
I don't care how you get rid of them, get rid of them first because they're the major problem.
Then you get rid of the tools, the puppets that they brought here to dispossess us and make us underlings.
I don't want to have an African doctor.
I don't care if it's a man or a woman.
I don't want to be limited to 10 minutes after I wait an hour because if everybody is limited to only 10 minutes, you know, there's going to be a long waiting time by the time you get in for your appointment.
And then you have to drive there.
And I have a jeep.
So that means that they won't take coins to get into the parking lot to pay for the $4.
So I have to stick my credit card, which is way low.
I might drop it in the snow or the rain.
I have to get up.
Or someone may have installed a camera in the outdoor slot where you stick in your card to get into the parking lot.
Everything has turned into a bloody business.
We are just a commodity.
Leaving Quebec's Tyranny 00:03:46
They are just sucking us dry.
They used to be called robber barons.
Then we had a civilized society where there was a middle class where people earned their education.
No one paid for my education.
I worked.
I went to school from 9 till 3, and then I was a newswriter at the local TV station from 4 till midnight.
That's how I put myself through university.
And I sold some jewelry that previous boyfriends had given me because I left Quebec, which was the tyranny of the Catholics and the Francophones, and came to Ontario, which was supposed to be the economic engine of Canada.
And neither one would recognize me as a resident, so I couldn't even borrow from either the Ontario or the Quebec government.
So I had to borrow from a bank to put myself through university and then to take it off and to work at night, you know, eight hours a day to put myself through school.
Now these people come here, they're given all kinds of money, and Canada's even, you think it's bad in the U.S. Let me tell you, it started in Canada first.
This is where Fabian socialism was brought first.
So whatever Paul has said, I magnify that 10 times over.
If somebody is a foreign heritage, but they were raised in this country, I talk about Canada and the U.S. because basically we're much the same.
Canada has been riding the coattails of the U.S. when the U.S. was prosperous.
Now we're just kind of the poor neighbor, but you're just as poor as we are because you're being parasitized.
I don't like Trump.
I hate his guts.
I always have.
I've always thought of him as psychotic and egomaniacal.
However, if he can get rid of some of the illegal migrants that the Yiddishers, they're not Jews because they're not from Judah.
They're Yiddishers.
Yiddish is a Germanic language and they all speak different variants of Yiddish.
So they created a modern Hebrew which has no resemblance to biblical classical Hebrew because that's what I learned as a newborn infant.
That was my language.
In Bethlehem, we still spoke the old language with overlay of Aramaic and Arabic and all the other people who came to Bethlehem.
I don't care what ICE.
I'm in favor of what ICE is doing.
That's what I'm saying.
Get rid of them.
And if somebody who is innocent, their face is scanned, what harm is it going to do?
If you're not doing, I resort to the same old thing.
I know I'm being monitored.
I know that because my husband was the first one to monitor me when I came back from Israel.
And I've been monitored ever since, but I don't care.
Why am I free to speak?
Because I don't do anything wrong.
I don't consider with anybody.
Thank you.
Thank you, Layla.
Very impassioned statement.
We'll be right back.

Backwards singing in the dead oven.
Take these broken wings and learn to fly all your life.
You were only waiting for this moment to rise.
Take these fucking wings and let it fly.
Okay, I got it.
Let's have the next caller, but before I do so, let me explain just as a point of clarification.
When we talk about population over population of the earth, it's got to do with regard to criteria of what would be desirable in terms of quality of life, consumption of resources, and the like.
In other words, it's not a well-defined question.
It's not just a question of numbers.
And Layla's contribution here rather illustrated the idea of trying to bring about a society that had a certain specific kind of population composition, which is far more complex and detailed.
So I'm just suggesting this is a real, it's a rather complicated question.
We got JP back.
JP, go ahead, join the conversation.
Getting some weird comm issues today.
But, Jim, I loved your intro today.
Your sit rep, 88.8%, I agree with.
But, you know, you're a military history guy.
I've studied a lot about World War II, World War I.
The great thing about the Germans were that was at 88 millimeter.
You know, they could puncture our Sherman tanks.
They used to call them lighters because they had diesel tanks to explode on impact.
But our tanks were gasoline.
And as soon as they punctured those Shermans, man, everybody would get torched inside.
It was pretty sick.
But the one weakness the Germans had was the Bismarck.
Do you remember the sinking of the Bismarck, that big German battleship that was supposed to be superior?
Yes.
Well, the British sunk that.
They took three or four cruisers and destroyer, and eventually they sunk it.
And I agree with you there.
These battleships are sit-and-ducks nowadays with the hypersonic missiles.
What?
They go Mach 10, 50K, 15K coming at you, even with lasers and nukes and drones.
That thing's a big sit-and-duck.
So that estimate you gave, I 100% agree with.
I think naval ships are old technology.
And this is coming from a guy.
My grandfather was in the British Navy.
I was the captain of the North Star.
I drove big boats, cruise ships in the Dells for tourists as a teenager.
It was my best job I ever had in my life.
Have you ever gone to the Wisconsin Dells boat tours?
Yeah.
The family has.
They're fun.
That's a fun tour.
They do it in the docks.
They use those amphibious landing craft that have been converted.
I didn't do that.
The Ducks were mostly Marine guys.
I was the Navy guy.
So I drove the boat.
I was the North Star, which is an intermediate ship.
So I drove the overflow guy.
But I would like to critique Trump with Greenland.
I mean, Greenland is number two with REEs, bro.
Number two in the world.
Venezuela is number one in oil, silver, gold, bullion, everything.
I mean, Trump was cracking up Macron.
He was saying he was wearing the blue sunglasses.
And he goes, why?
What happened?
You know, his he wife popped him in the eye properly.
He had a red eye.
That's why his he wife hit him.
And do you know that Obama, Kissinger, Macron are all married to men, transgenders?
Do you know that, Jim?
Macron, I didn't know anything about Kissinger.
Who is the author you were suggesting?
Of course, Obama.
We all know about that.
Kissinger, I did not know this.
Look it up.
Look it up.
I mean, I didn't know this until recently, but look at it.
After he died, it wasn't until after he died because he was part of that secret executive service, that shadow government that we've all talked about.
And Kissinger was high-ranking in that.
He was the one that brought in the whole trade with China.
And his wife, look at the body frame, look at the shoulders.
Look at the Adams apple.
This was before plastic surgery.
Yeah.
And, you know, the hands, the hands, give it away.
And then Big Mike with the package.
And then Macron, Macron's always getting beat up and hit by his he wife.
And he was sporting a black eye.
And that's why Trump trolled him.
He said he's wearing the blue sunglasses.
And then he said, why?
What happened?
Do you remember the picture of the wife hitting him in that airplane?
That famous scene where the wife hit him.
It was caught on camera.
Don't think I caught that one, JP, but fascinating.
Sorry for getting dirt down and dirty, but these are the elites.
You know, the you know, they talk about Sodom and Kevorah.
Well, a lot of people claim that the Nephilim, the certain genetic DNA that inbred DNA from the elites, that they're very, you know, they have male and female tendencies.
Some of them are born appetite.
Thank you, JP.
Thank you, JP.
Well, let that go for now.
We'll be right back with Joe from the church where a wedding has been in a dream, waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door.

Breaking News Flashbacks 00:14:51
Joe from Florida, join the conversation.
Joe, welcome back.
Hey, Jim, thanks for taking my call.
Yeah, thanks.
Thanks.
I appreciate that.
Oh, hey, listen, by the way, did you see?
I just saw this kind of breaking news.
You know, that Trump's been offering this Gaza Board of Peace.
Yeah.
I mean, how Orwellian can you get?
Right.
And he says that the countries that joined the $1 billion price tag.
So I see the breaking news is that President Putin has responded to him and he says Russia will consider joining this Board of Peace.
And he says he thinks it's a good idea that the $1 billion, the fee, I guess, to George joined the Board of Peace, be taken from the frozen assets of Russia that the United States froze at the beginning of the special military operation, or as I like to call it, the Jewish war against Russia.
Anyway, I thought that's a real comeback from Putin, right?
Yeah, yeah, it is.
It is.
That's very daft.
Excellent.
That's very smart.
He's a genius.
But the real thing I want to talk about, and the two stories, and thanks for covering them, by the way.
So the fires in Patagonia, okay?
And I'm a little bit of a Hispanophile.
So the thing is, you know, and you mentioned that, and again, thanks for covering that.
And we have, so we have the Jew, the crypto Jew.
He's actually overtly a Jew.
I think he's a Murano Malay that took over in Argentina.
In other words, his family was thrown out of Spain historically.
And then there's a group of people who pretended to convert to Catholicism.
And I think that's really what his story is.
Anyway, so I didn't know.
I only learned this recently, but for about the last 10 or 15 years, what Israel does is it sends these people, men and women, mostly men, in their 20s, and they call them scouts, right?
They have a little uniform, and they are there in Patagonia.
I see important this for at least the last 10 to 15 years.
Every summer, because it's summer right now in Argentina, these scouts, so-called scouts, you know, it's an organized national operation of scouts, you know, like they're not Boy Scouts, but whatever, show up in Patagonia.
And what do they do when they get there?
They take measurements of dams.
They take infrastructure photos.
They're constantly taking notes about the sizes and the length and all of the structures in Patagonia.
For 10 years, they've been doing this.
And Argentinians have been looking at it and saying, hey, what's the deal, right?
They're not tourists.
Like, they're not coming to party.
They're coming to gather intel for 10 years.
They've been doing this.
Okay.
This is what it's culminated in, okay?
Because Patagonia is in flames, okay?
And this is the way the Jews work.
This is the way Israel works, okay?
They send these scouts out there.
And then when they get the word, right, they've got their puppet running the country, they set fires in Patagonia.
And it's outrageous.
An interesting thing I would just add about this is Patagonia is a region that straddles two countries.
The other country where Patagonia exists is Chile on the other side, okay?
And what's happening in Chile?
I don't know, this is happening today.
You may not have seen it.
Wildfires are breaking out in Chile on the other side of the border of Patagonia.
And this is thousands of people, tens of, they said 50,000 people have been driven out of their homes.
Some of the pictures are absolutely outrageous.
So I'm bringing this.
You mentioned in the first hour, but this is the kind of work that they do.
And somehow we're going to pretend that we don't think they're a threat.
What do you think, Jim?
It's so awful, Joe, and they're doing this with directed energy weapons from satellites.
I mean, it's brutal.
It's absolutely brutal.
I have no doubt you've got it right.
I have no doubt at all, Joe.
And it's just brutal.
And the world doesn't realize what they're up against.
You know, so many of us are so naive and so, you know, unwilling to contemplate the vile aspects of humanity that are manifest here.
I'm very troubled.
I think you're making great points.
I agree.
And then the other one, which is also speaking of Hispanic, you're starting to talk about Spain and the train crash.
Thank you for covering that in the way that you did.
Because by the way, I don't know if you've seen this.
So that train crash happened on Sunday in Spain, okay?
On the train from, I've been to Spain, I've been on their trains from Córdoba to Madrid, that train, okay?
And by the way, Tuesday night, another train derailment.
I don't even seen this.
On Tuesday night in a part of Spain called Gualinda, another train derailment.
One person was killed.
It wasn't as big.
It was more of a regional train.
But here's the background for that, okay?
What country, Spain is a country which is respectable in the level of France and Portugal and Germany, okay?
It has a high profile.
But in the last year, the president there has definitely, as you pointed out, recognized the Palestinian state and has been one of the leaders in Europe of pointing out that the Israelis must be expelled from the normal coterie of states for committing a genocide.
So lo and behold, very convenient.
The investigators, I saw the investigators report about this Sunday night train things.
They can't figure it out.
They're saying that there must have been some kind of an attack on the actual structure of the track.
It seems to be not failure of mechanical failure, that something was done to the track to make this train go off.
Now, that's another example of the sick Jewish terrorists that are terrorizing.
You know, in Spain, people are very proud of their trains.
It's a point of pride for Spanish people.
So if you were going to attack Spain for being so outright and standing up against the Jewish genocide and against the attack on Palestinian people, this is what you would do.
You'd attack Spain in its point of pride, which is like the trains.
It's a little similar to September 11th, you know, with the Twin Towers, right?
You want to attack that thing?
I mean, I'm just saying the final point.
People need to wake up.
Yeah, Joe, these are good points.
I don't hate all.
I don't hate all the Jews.
When people are doing it so overtly, these Jewish attacks must be called out for what they are.
You're calling them out.
Thank you, Jim.
Yeah, good Joe.
Good job.
Good call.
Much appreciated.
Much appreciated.
Tom in Florida, Tom, joining the conversation.
Tom.
Yeah, good.
Okay, I'll make it brief, Jim.
Yeah, well, we're calling.
Yeah, okay, give me a sec.
Let me say, make it real quick, Jim.
What's going on right now with the crap?
I got in the hospital, but it's all not here.
And at JP's point, you know, Chicago, his city of Chicago, they're had 15 children a weekend again, five dead.
What more can I say?
What more do you want me to say?
You'll hold me up thanks to this combobulation.
Yeah, Jews, this, whatever.
I give up, Jim.
I give up on this shit.
It's not, it's not.
You know, you got Chinese sneaking in here by the thousands in San Francisco.
They want to all be pilots, 10,000 of them training to be pilots, Jim.
Come on.
What is that for?
Why do you all these people want to be Chinese want to be pilots?
So go figure.
Anyway, Jim, I got to get going.
Thanks for taking it.
Okay, Tom.
Okay, Tom.
Sorry that I get it.
I get it.
Thank you for calling in.
James and Charlotte.
James and Charlotte, join the conversation, James.
Yes, good afternoon, Professor Fetzer.
I haven't been able to listen live to your program until the last couple of days.
And your first call today, was it Paul?
I believe.
Yeah.
It was the first call.
It sort of prompts me to suggest some study.
There are a couple of, well, more than a couple.
There's several videos which are on YouTube and other areas of the internet that you can find titled The Long Emergency by James Howard Kunstler.
And I would highly recommend anyone who wants to give some thought about the population question to look at these videos.
I suggest looking at them in chronological order.
He has them starting from about 10 or 12 years ago, and he's updated it periodically.
And I think the latest one was maybe a year ago.
But his primary point in most of these videos is the misallocation, misallocation of resources.
And he made the statement that suburbanization is probably the hugest misallocation of resources in the history of the human race.
And from what he has presented, I would have to pretty much agree with him.
The other video and the other, well, yeah, it is a video that you might want to look at is called Blip, which is titled Humanities 300-Year Humanities 300-Year Association with Industrialization and the self-termination of that.
It's really very illuminating.
I talked about this some months ago.
one of the last calls I made several months ago about a rapidly approaching point where we will have an input-output point of energy where it will require as much energy to produce a barrel of oil as you can extract from a barrel of oil, and that's just inevitable.
It's if you look at the, if you look at the graph and the numbers.
Well James, let me ask you, let me ask you this, we'll not make it another 10 years.
James, let me ask you this, I mean, oil is actually naturally produced by earth.
I mean, that's what happened down in the Gulf.
They tapped into that vast supply it's endless, an endless supply of oil produced by earth and then they sought to conceal it.
That corrects it, all that nonsense.
So I don't know, am I missing?
What am I missing here?
There's uh, there's an endless supply of oil yes, produced by earth.
So how do we get the shortage, the?
The supply is not the point.
Uh professor uh, that's it.
Uh, do you know how much energy it takes to lift?
No, i'd love your point.
I love your point about how much that it could require more energy to extract than you get from what you're extracting obviously a losing proposition.
I just don't.
I don't understand why it should come to pass.
You know you are suggesting a very dire situation here in 10 or 20 years.
Uh, just repeat again what you take to be the core of the situation, if you would not mind.
James I, I respect you tremendously, you're a very thoughtful guy.
I just want to make sure I get get the core of it.
Well, when I but when I made that call several months ago and talked about this, that there were several people who who followed and called in and basically made the same point that you're making about how there's, you know billions, who's uh?
Billions of uh barrels of oil in reserve here and trillions here and more.
You know.
But that's not the point.
The supply is not the point.
It's not.
It's not a peak oil question.
It's a peak energy question.
The oil that's in the ground, no matter how much there is and i'll go, i'll go ahead and uh stipulate that it's uh endless.
Let's say that there's an unlimited amount of oil in the earth's crust there is.
The oil that's in the ground doesn't do us any good.
It's got to be.
It's got to be brought to the surface, yes.
It's got to be transported to a refinery, yes, the product of the refinery has got to be transported to the consumers, yes, and these?
It is taking greater and greater and greater amounts of energy to do it.
And uh, we will reach Absolutely, we will reach a point where the amount of energy that is required to do all of that will be more than the amount of energy that you're getting from it.
It's inevitable.
It doesn't matter how much oil is in the ground.
I'll, you know, let's just say it's endless.
Let's just say there's an unlimited amount.
We're having to go deeper and deeper.
The oil wells that are drilling, that are being drilled now are more than 3,000 feet deep on an average.
50 years ago, they were on an average about 800 feet deep.
We're having to go deeper and deeper to get the oil.
We're having to go farther and farther away to get it.
We're having to transport it farther.
Alternative Energy Pile-Up 00:10:17
All of these things are piling up.
James, would an alternative be the discovery?
Would the discovery of alternative forms of energy, you know, Tesla-type free energy then make the huge difference?
Well, assuming that one of the points that Kunstler makes is that he hasn't not seen as yet, and I don't know of any source of energy as yet, that would be able to replace even a significant portion of the energy that we're getting from oil, much less replace all of it.
Well, you're certainly given us a lot to think about, James.
Fascinating.
Yeah, very intriguing.
Much, much, much appreciated.
A final thought or we got it?
Let me make one more point.
You mentioned about the situation that you believe that oil is being produced, new oil is being produced.
I don't see any evidence of it.
The same thing happens in a water well.
Sometimes if a water well goes dry and you quit pumping it, you can come back later and there will be water in the well because it seeps in through the porous, through the rock pores and fissures in the rock.
I think the same thing is happening with oil wells that are dry and they come back later and can pump oil out.
And they're hypothesizing that's new oil.
Well, maybe it is new oil.
Like I say, even if the amount of oil in the ground is unlimited, it doesn't make any difference if you don't have, if you can't get enough energy to bring it to the surface.
Thanks, James.
Good to distribute it.
We appreciate the argument you've laid it out.
Thank you very much.
Let's see.
We got Mitchell in Tennessee.
Mitchell, join the conversation from Tennessee.
Jim, my God, you there?
Yeah, go ahead.
Yeah.
Having some phone problems.
Listen, Jim, I'm going to make this short.
Yesterday, Frances called in.
Do you remember?
Sure.
She was talking about the Minnesota ice issue.
Sure.
And she was making some points.
I jotted down some notes here.
She was talking about face scanning concerns.
You did a story about this in your first hour, I think.
Yeah.
These are valid concerns.
She was also talking about the right of the people to legally protest and that we, the people, should and have that right.
She was concerned about that.
She was concerned about the legal citizens being attacked and in some cases taken away.
Yes.
So in my opinion, you can listen to more stuff, more for her call.
In my opinion, Francis had valid concerns.
Yeah.
Valid comments.
Yes.
We would agree, correct?
Sure, but as I was explaining, it's got to do with legal versus illegal protests and legal versus illegal, you know, law enforcement.
Okay, I understand where you're going.
I'm in a different direction.
What I want to do here, what I want to do here is, she was in the first portion of the second of your second hour, the caller hour.
And then towards the end of the show, you got a call from Wayne.
Now, the audio audience would know him as Wayne in Texas.
And real quick, let me give you a quote from Wayne.
He opened up his call with this quote verbatim.
He says, Wayne, I just wanted to call in because I heard that gibberish from Francis about what's going on with ICE up in Minnesota.
Now, you know, I like to get clarification and definitions.
Definition of gibberish, meaningless speech or writing, nonsense, nonsensical, or meaningless.
In closing, I'll say this.
I thought, as I've established, I thought Francis made very good and important points with her call.
Now, here's my request.
I want Wayne in Texas to call back and explain why he considered the comments of Francis to be, quote, meaningless gibberish.
That's all I want to do.
I expect to hear from Wayne to clean this up.
I want to know why he thought Francis was all wet.
That's all I'm about to say.
Okay, Mitchell, we got it.
We got it.
We appreciate it.
Thank you for the call.
James in Vancouver.
James, welcome back.
Well, yeah, I can make the best oil in the world out of carbon dioxide for a lot more cheaper than it costs for Schlumberger to drill it.
The reason why people are drilling is Schlumberger has a big lobby with the banks.
So that's how that works.
Now, it's not 3,000 feet now, everybody.
It's 30,000 feet.
That's how deep they're going.
And they know where all the oil is because, like I said before, Robert L. Forward's invention, the Hughes Gradiometer.
Okay.
NASA knows where everything is.
And that's probably why NASA's got a line on Greenland.
Yeah.
Because there's stuff in Greenland that nobody knows about.
Right.
But NASA does.
And NASA's pushing Trump saying, hey, there's stuff there.
You better get it because it's strategic.
Okay.
Yeah.
So that's how that works.
By the way, James, by the way, I suspect you're exactly right about that.
Exactly right.
Yeah.
Well, have you ever heard of Hasteloid C, by the way?
Hasteloy C is a very, very expensive alloy that is resistant to sulfuric acid, and it's used in all the oil fields around the world because there's sulfur in the oil.
Yeah.
So the people who make Hastelloy C, they got to deal with this, you see.
Anyway, look at, I'll let you go.
No, no, James, James, stay, stay.
I want to get a couple more minutes out of you, my friend.
We got an opportunity here.
Tell me your thoughts about any of the other issues of our time besides Greenland.
Well, I think that Trump made it to Davos.
And I think I got to check his speech out.
I think he was talking to Carrie, the prime minister in Kerry.
What's his name?
Anyway, it doesn't matter.
Mark Carney.
Sorry, Mark.
Mark Carney is talking.
Yeah.
So that might work out if maybe they can keep talking.
He went to Davos.
He went to Davos today or yesterday and, you know, world about the new world order.
What's he got to say there, James?
Mean, you know, where does Trump fit into this broader scheme of things?
All right.
Well, what I did is I looked up AI and I asked AI, can you give me the speech?
So AI gave me the speech.
So, in a couple of minutes after I hang up here, I'm going to go check the speech out.
They're just sitting around in chairs talking.
It's not like the UN.
It's a kind of a sort of a laid-back format.
And so that's how that's going.
But we, of course, the world is at a sort of a crisis, but a lot of that is imposed by the competition between nations.
Like I said before, nations are in a state to a large extent of anarchy.
By the way, by the way, by the way, by the way, given James from Charlotte's Call, what are your views about the production of oil?
I mean, am I not right that it's naturally produced by Earth?
I mean, this is, you know, in a super abundance.
I mean, there's no limit to the amount of oil produced by Earth.
And thus, the question is a matter of his argument about extraction and the cost of extraction per unit value of energy.
Your thoughts about that question.
Well, those costs are, I think, to a large extent arbitrarily set.
And they've got all kinds of sweetheart deals in the oil business.
So if other people are paying $75 a barrel, some suppliers, you can get it for $20.
That's what Saddam Hussein was doing.
And that's why they took Saddam out because the Bush family were in the Aramco, on the Aramco side.
And Saddam Hussein was selling his oil to Europeans at $5 a barrel.
The oil traders in Europe then jacked up the price to the European countries, making a nice little profit in between.
So that's how that worked.
All the oil on the earth actually came from the sun or stars.
You cannot make, you cannot, the earth cannot fuse elements together to get oil.
You see, like, in other words, the earth can't make carbon.
All the carbon is fused in the sun.
But one more thing: What is life by Erwin Schrodinger?
They did a calculation back in the 20s.
We got a million years of elements on the earth.
Thank you.
Thank you, James.
Much appreciated.
To be continued.
Everyone.
Spend as much time with your family, your friends.
Don't waste a special moment with the people you love and care about.
We don't know how much time we have left.
Use it wisely.
Support RBM hands.
God willing.
We'll be back tomorrow and we'll do it all over again.
