All right, welcome everyone to Bright Young Conversations.
This is Mike Adams here, the founder of brighteon.com, where you will find speech that would be banned anywhere else because we believe in freedom and that's not allowed on big tech platforms.
But here today we're going to talk to two freedom fighters, you might say, people who are really fighting for your freedom and the freedom of our nation.
We've got Don Jolly joining us and Brian Festa.
Don is from wetepatriotsusa.org and Brian is from ctfreedomalliance.org, which is the Connecticut Freedom Alliance.
Both of these individuals are well-informed and are fighting for action right now for us to take action, defend President Trump, defend our republic, even more importantly than any one individual, and to take action now to avoid our country from being surrendered to communist infiltration. and to take action now to avoid our country from So Dawn and Brian, thank you for joining me today.
It's great to have you on.
Welcome to the show.
Thank you so much, Mike.
It's a pleasure.
Well, since this is the first time we've had an interview together, let's start out just with a little bit of background.
Give us just a brief background of who you are.
You're a veteran, Dawn, and you've had an interesting background, I believe, even with Pfizer, correct?
That is accurate, yes.
So tell us a little bit about yourself and the organization, We the Patriots USA. Sure.
So I'm from New York City originally, and I joined the Navy when I was 17 and had a very interesting but short-lived career with the military.
I actually got out on a family hardship because my son was vaccine injured, despite the fact that Me giving the Portsmouth Naval Facility both oral and verbal instructions, excuse me, verbal and written instructions because I had a birth plan typed up to not vaccinate my child.
They gave him hep B and vitamin K and then we started a nine months of hell on earth with my newborn child essentially.
And that's what got me started in the medical freedom movement, because I myself had already been vaccine injured.
I was in during 9-11, so I had the pleasure of them losing my medical records.
So not only did I have childhood vaccines, not only did I have my first round in boot camp, then I was given a second round, which include, it was six rounds, I believe, of anthrax in addition to Two dose every vaccine that they were giving to people at the time.
One of them was an experimental vaccine.
I still have no clue to this day what the heck it was.
Maybe HPV, because that was years before HPV came out.
And we're always the test subjects years ahead of schedule from what the mainstream public sees.
So who knows?
Now in the military, I mean, they really love to give vaccines to the troops and they use experimental vaccines that have not yet been approved for public consumption, correct?
Absolutely.
And they do the same thing with pharmaceutical drugs as well.
It's not vaccines.
It's biologics and drugs.
So then, how did you go from being in the Navy to working for Pfizer?
So there were many different things I did in between there.
I moved around a few times.
I was actually in the real estate market for some time.
I did some consulting work.
And I was actually the assistant director of a program called Edge for Vets based in New York City, a partnership with Fordham University where I went to school.
And I was essentially helping veterans that were coming out of the service that really didn't have direction or hope.
They weren't sure how to translate their military skills into civilian life.
And we were encouraging them essentially to go back to school, use their GI Bill, get a degree that's relevant in today's world, and either that or to start your own business, depending on which career path you wanted to take up.
But a lot of people wanted to be in the system because they were already used to that and they weren't ready to branch out.
So we were kind of funneling them into a better place so at least they didn't have to risk homelessness and all the other things that plague our veterans today, since our country sucks in taking care of veterans.
So I started there, and I actually got picked up by Pfizer.
And me feeling the way I felt, I wanted kind of the inside scoop, so to speak.
And so I took a position that allowed me to work directly under the global president of the vaccines, oncology, and consumer health.
Wow.
That must have been fascinating.
It was very fascinating.
You know, I've signed a lot of documentation that legally prohibits me from saying very much, so I'm very careful with my wording, but let's just say it confirmed everything that I already knew in my gut to be true.
And I saw plenty with my own eyes.
So I had the pleasure of trying to say that without throwing up.
Meeting Bill Gates once at a Gabby meeting with the Pharma Board.
Yeah, you got close to the bill, huh?
Yep, and we've been on the right path for a long time, Mike, so we're a decade or so ahead of the population, unfortunately.
So can you confirm, is he human?
That's question number one.
He appears to be human, but these days, you know, 2020, we don't know what to expect.
We could have alien, reptilian beings.
We could have AI walking around with, you know, special technology masks.
Well, yeah, that's Mark Zuckerberg.
I'm convinced he's half cyborg.
Okay, tell us about WeThePatriotsUSA.org.
What's that focused on?
Sure.
So Brian and I run that side by side.
Brian is the best business partner and best friend I've ever had.
We are a fantastic team.
And we actually started with the CT Freedom Alliance a few years ago, based in Connecticut, to take back the state of Connecticut, essentially.
So I'll let him speak more about the details of that.
But of course, as things continue to unravel, We saw that there was a much greater need in taking back our country.
You know, it's so much bigger than just any one state at this point in time, regardless of whether you're in a red state being run by a rhino or a blue state that's essentially deep state run.
We need the whole country to not fall.
And that's where we are now.
We saw this prior to all this insanity rolling out to the level we're seeing.
You know, we've formed a great group here on a local level, but we need this to be all throughout the country.
We need to activate patriots on everything.
It's not just vaccines.
It's not just face masks at this point.
You know, we have our Second Amendment.
We have our First Amendment with all the censorship.
We have the pro-louement.
I mean, we have so many different movements of people, GMOs, 5G. You know, we touch on everything.
It's about freedom.
And based on moral principles, that's what we fight for.
And we wanted to be the organization that essentially brought all of these different groups of people together that care about freedom, that care about our country, that care about doing things properly based upon principles, and bring them all together and activate them to start getting way more involved on local levels as well as a national level.
So that's kind of how we started.
Well, it's great what you're doing there.
Let's bring in Brian Festa, who I understand you're a civil rights attorney as well, and you help to run WeThePatriotsUSA.org, but also CTFreedomAlliance.org.
I'm glad to know you're there because I know people who have left Connecticut in search of freedom.
I haven't met anybody who stayed there to fight for freedom in Connecticut yet.
I know a lot of gun manufacturers that have left Connecticut as well because of the environment there.
So you're still in Connecticut currently.
And you're fighting for freedom for everybody there.
So, Brian, welcome to the show.
It's great to have you on.
Thanks, Mike.
It's great to be here.
Yeah, I'm in Connecticut for the time being.
We'll see what the future holds.
But I'm definitely here to fight.
And we're not backing down.
You're right.
Freedom's under attack.
And a lot of people have left.
A lot of companies have left.
There's actually a Facebook group.
People who have left or are leaving Connecticut.
That I'm a member of.
I've been a member for a while, but I haven't left.
But yeah, there's people every day putting up snapshots, going to South Carolina today, going to Texas today, going to Florida today.
So it is a trend, but Listen, I believe that we can't only stand our ground and fight in the red states or even the swing states.
We have to stand our ground everywhere and fight back against this tyranny.
This is absolutely abhorrent, what they've done to this country, what they're doing to the Constitution.
As a member of the legal profession, as you mentioned, I am a civil rights attorney.
As a member of the legal profession, I'm embarrassed to Quite frankly, that others who share the profession with me have so grievously harmed the fabric of this country, which is our individual rights, our individual freedoms, the Bill of Rights.
They're not a piece of paper.
It's not a living, breathing document that you can Just make it up as you go along, as we've seen in some decisions coming even from the highest court.
It is a document that was created quite brilliantly by the founders of our country, the framers of the Constitution, and it's something that we really need to protect.
So we have a slogan at Connecticut Freedom Alliance, which is protecting, working to preserve and expand our freedoms because we not only want to preserve what we have, but we actually think we should have more freedom.
Absolutely.
But we are ratcheting towards more and more tyranny in this country, especially with COVID being the accelerant, you might say, that has seemingly allowed governors, for example, to, in their own minds, justify punitive lockdowns, crushing the middle class, destroying small businesses.
Even when state supreme courts, like in Michigan, have ruled that that's illegal, Governor Whitmer says, I don't care.
I'm going to keep pushing lockdowns anyway.
I know we're talking about Michigan there instead of Connecticut, but in that case, hasn't she crossed the line?
She's no longer a representative.
She's a criminal.
I would tend to agree with that.
If you are defying court orders, and if you are defying the Constitution, and if you are not holding faithfully to your oath, remember, all of these politicians that we put up there, these supposed representatives of the people, swear an oath when they come into office.
And even as an attorney, I had to swear one to the Constitution, to uphold the Constitution and the laws of the state and the Constitution of the United States.
So if, you know, if you're openly defying court orders and defying the Constitution, then yes, I mean, that is illegal and there has to be accountability.
And we'll see what happens.
It's going to be really interesting.
You know, obviously, we've been listening to your podcast, Mike, and some of the guests you've had on and some of your thoughts as to what's going to happen in this country over the next two weeks.
It's going to be really interesting.
And we're hoping that justice will prevail in the end.
I still do think there is a path there for justice to prevail, whether it comes through Congress, whether it comes through the military, whether it comes through a combination of both and the Supreme Court as well.
We'll see.
But I do undo this election fraud because it's really been just horrendous what's happened in this country.
We can't allow it to happen.
And if it continues to happen, there will never be another fair election again.
Which to me, that's where the patriots come in.
I mean, we saw what happened in Portland, Oregon the other day where they're storming the Capitol.
Of course, the media twist it to make us look like evil people when they're there singing, you know, God bless America and the Pledge of Allegiance.
But that's where the patriots come in.
I mean, We don't have to obey.
There is nothing that compels us to obey unjust laws, right?
Thomas Jefferson said it.
Well, and also, remember, when Antifa is overrunning a police station in Portland, then the media says, oh, that's perfectly peaceful and that's just.
But when patriots are saying, we demand our freedoms and rights, then they say, oh, you're terrorists, you know?
It's out of control.
That's exactly what happens.
I mean, we had an example of that in Connecticut just a few months ago.
We had Black Lives Matter and Antifa taking over, literally shutting down an interstate in Connecticut, right?
So EMS can't come through, anything of that nature.
But if we hold a rally that's not even obtrusive at all in any way, we're a problem and we get asked for it because we all know who mainstream media really works for.
It certainly isn't the people.
Well, as I've described, we are now all living under enemy occupation.
When the enemies commit crimes, they're never held accountable.
The DAs let them go without charge.
But we are called criminals for doing legal, peaceful things.
But I've also said in my podcast, and this is a question to you, Don, that the big risk here is, what if Trump does nothing?
You know, he has all of these tools.
He's got the 14th Amendment.
He's got the 2018 Executive Order.
You know, he's got the Insurrection Act and military intelligence has set things up for him and so on.
But at the end of the day, if he refuses to act, then it all falls onto the last option, which is we the people.
How long do you think patriots are willing to wait to see the president take decisive action here?
Absolutely.
So I'm hearing a lot going on in the battle or showing up in D.C. on the 6th.
And if Trump doesn't pull the trigger by the 7th, they're ready to take matters into their own hands.
Most people are not willing to wait until the 20th occurs and they're not willing to watch Biden be inaugurated, whether it's false or not.
I don't think most patriots want to wait for that moment because then by then they feel it's too late, essentially.
So people are getting ready now and they're ready to get mobile and get active on the 7th if push comes to shove.
I'm still hearing some rumors in the background of truckers.
I haven't seen anything solid on that in recent weeks.
I didn't really see anything, you know, formidable enough take action, you know, in regards to that.
So I was a little disappointed to see that because I was hoping that they would stop bringing goods into blue cities and, you know, go that route.
But it doesn't Well, the big secret that not a lot of people really know about is that even if the FBI or DHS agents and so on oppose the Patriots, and by the way, a lot of DHS agents are actually with the Patriots, just for the record, most of them, but there aren't that many federal...
You know, soldiers, so to speak, if the military is not involved.
There aren't that many federal troops.
Militia groups could theoretically massively outnumber federal people in Washington, D.C. You know, it's Capitol Police, Washington, D.C. Police.
It would be no match if this thing went into more of an adversarial phase, at least in my assessment.
What do you think?
I agree with that assessment.
I'm hoping we don't have to invoke that option.
So we're really holding out hope that Trump will come through.
We feel that he has all the tools that he needs in his handbag, essentially, to make that happen, which is waiting for him to essentially pull the trigger.
I mean, more and more people have been woken up by this nonsense similarity to give Americans crumbs and, you know, give $10 million to Pakistan for frigging gender studies, for God's sake.
500 million for Israel, which I've been watching and quite interested to see what goes on there because their elections are falling to pieces as well over there.
You know, it's a global thing.
Of course, it's not just here in America, but we have to take care of our own before we can go out there and kind of Well, you know, people want to be free everywhere.
And Brian, I wanted to ask you, do you think that the civil court option here that's currently being pursued by Trump's legal team, as well as private attorneys such as Lin Wood and Sidney Powell and so on, does that have any chance of succeeding at all?
I mean, you know, with the Supreme Court denying the case for Texas based on just standing.
I mean, that seemed insane.
It seems like we're never going to get a fair shake in the court system in this country.
I don't think those civil suits are going to be successful personally.
I think, unfortunately...
It would take a very, very brave judge or justice or group of justices to do that.
And bravery and courage is in short supply these days.
That's the biggest problem, really.
You know, the standing issue, you know, I'm not going to get into that too much right now, but I actually...
I actually do think that it was legally correct because in order to have standing, you have to have suffered a personal injury to that state.
Texas would have had to have lost the election to Biden instead of Trump.
So Texas would have had to be certified for Biden.
Who needed to bring that lawsuit was Michigan, Wisconsin.
Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, New Mexico, those are the states that needed to bring that lawsuit.
They all have been defrauded, and they all clearly have standing.
Now, whether or not they're standing after January 6th, if all of the states are officially certified, counted, and certified by Pence to all of those states to go for Biden, and then he's declared the president, then arguably any state could have standing at that point.
But I don't think that's the route to go here.
I honestly think I think what needs to happen is Trump needs to take immediate and decisive action through the Insurrection Act, the use of the Insurrection Act, as well as possibly martial law, which are two distinct things.
But he needs to absolutely use military force to seize all of those ballots.
And order either a recount, a revote, however he's going to do it, another election.
But this has to be stopped immediately because, again, if we lose this election, in my opinion, we've lost America in many ways.
Our election system is at the heart of what it means to be American in this republic.
So what I want to say, though, about lawsuits is we do believe, as Don said, we don't advocate for violence at either group, at We the Patriots or Connecticut Freedom Alliance.
We agree with civil disobedience and peaceful protesting.
But what we also, one of our missions is to file lawsuits, both at the state level and the federal level, to fight back against this.
Now, that may seem incongruous with what I just said, that, you know, lawsuits aren't the way to get it done for Trump.
However, for other issues like these lockdown orders, I think we do have a shot in the courts, as we saw the Supreme Court's decision against Cuomo on Thanksgiving Eve.
That was a great decision, and that gives me a lot of hope.
The Connecticut Freedom Alliance has actually filed a lawsuit.
We're in court right now.
We filed a lawsuit against the state of Connecticut Department of Education for the school mask mandate.
So thousands of children are being harmed by these masks, which are ineffective and very, very unsafe for these children.
And it was done just unilaterally by the Education Department and the Commissioner Who is also named as a defendant, I'd like to say, Miguel Cardona, who was just picked to be Biden's education secretary.
He is the education commissioner in Connecticut, and none of the articles that are being written about him, there's a lot of articles in Connecticut right now, it's big news that Cardona was picked to be education secretary.
Not one of them has mentioned that he's a defendant One of the biggest lawsuits really in the nation right now with regard to lockdown orders, we've had this widely reported all across the country, the lawsuit that we filed.
If anyone would like to support that or find out more about that, you can on our website, which is ctfreedomalliance.org.
We are fighting that all the way because that's just another example of how the government has usurped power that belongs to the people.
Parents decide Their children's health.
Parents should be making the decisions for their children's health, whether to send them to school or not, whether to send them in a mask or not, whether to get a vaccine or not.
All of those things should be left to parents, not to the state.
Well, you're absolutely right about that.
Our audience would agree with you, but directing this back to Don here, you know, your child was vaccine-damaged, and there are many people being vaccine-damaged right now across America with these COVID vaccines that, of course, skipped many stages of testing that would typically be required for exhaustive approval process for normal vaccines.
What are you hearing In your community and your supporters and followers in the group about their willingness or their concerns about mandatory vaccines and their willingness to participate in this first wave of vaccines, knowing that they may be quite dangerous.
Well, Brian also has a vaccine injury story that if we have time, I'm sure he'd love to share with you.
But we are both very connected throughout the country with many people who have suffered injuries themselves or their children may have.
And I literally do not know one person who is going to take this vaccine.
I don't.
But that's because my circle is only made at this point of people that think in the same way as myself.
You know, our mission is to primarily save children and to wake people up because I feel if I try to knock some sense into an adult and I show them the proof and I give them the information and they refuse to take the next step forward, they're a lost cause and I need to move on to the next person and hopefully there's an opening there.
I've given up spending all of my energy, which I did for many years.
I'm really just trying to shake people awake.
But no, you need to know this.
If they don't want to hear it, let's go.
There are billions of other people in the world.
Maybe not for long, though.
Well, at the rate we're going, there won't be.
How many adverse reactions have there been reported so far?
Quite a few, you know?
And it's just going to get worse, of course.
But the first shot is not what I'm really that concerned about.
It's the second shot that I think is going to be worse.
And even more than that, when the next phase of some crazy bioweapon comes our way, those people will be even more weakened and more susceptible to injury.
And that's when I think we're going to see the widespread death.
Well, you're exactly right.
I'm really glad you mentioned that point because in animal trials, for example, they saw the hyper-inflammatory reactions after subsequent exposure to virus insults in the wild.
And, you know, the animals were fine after the first shot and even after the second shot in most cases.
It was then later they died.
But, you know, if that starts to happen in our world...
The vaccine industry will claim, well, that's not us.
These deaths aren't happening right after the vaccine, therefore it couldn't be us.
It must be another pandemic, so we need to make more vaccines.
And more lockdowns.
Yeah.
Yep.
It'll just, the cycle will just go on and on and on.
If Trump doesn't put an end to it now or the Patriots don't take over, this will be our future, you know, moving forward.
You know, we keep hearing reimagining and this is our new normal and life's not going back to how it was before.
And, you know, IMF is saying, well, you don't really need to own anything and you don't really need to have your own land and you don't really need to grow your own food.
I mean, we can all see the direction that this is heading in.
So we have to stop it before it gets any more out of control than it already is.
We're being treated like cattle on a ranch, or a confined operation, actually.
Yeah, we don't have a ranch.
We get pens.
Yeah, that's right.
And they just they feed us and tell us what to think and they determine what we're allowed to read or see or say or share for that matter.
And then ultimately they just want to exploit us and get rid of us, you know, maybe have us earn money and pay their tax burden for a while until the point where you you retire.
And then, oh, guess what?
You get a vaccine shot that tends to kill old people or you get stuffed into a nursing home in New York under Governor Cuomo.
And then you get exposed and you die there.
Oh, and then that boosts their urgency to have more lockdowns of the middle class.
I mean, it is this crazy cycle.
And in the meantime, they're making everybody sick by poisoning our air, our water, our food.
Forget about the vaccine shots, all the pharmaceutical medications that people in this country are on at this point, what they're doing to our children through EMFs and all of them on these screens and the indoctrination in the school system.
I mean, we're literally being hit from every single angle possible.
And then on top of all that, they're attacking our faith.
Yeah, not to mention that.
Right.
Well, let me bring Brian in on this.
Are you surprised at the vaccine awakening that's out there?
I mean, you know, a year ago, there were a lot more people who believed in vaccines than we're seeing right now.
But thanks to COVID and the vaccine push and the mask mandates and everything, and the loss of public faith in the WHO, the CDC, the Fauci fraud and all of that, I mean...
Maybe close to half the country now is very skeptical of vaccines.
Are you shocked that that happened so quickly?
Not really, because I think they overplayed their hand.
Everything you just described, everything accelerating so quickly, that was their undoing.
If they had done this on a slower timetable with regard to the COVID vaccine and the COVID hysteria, I think you'd have much more acceptance of it.
But even people who are vehemently pro-vaccine, Have had to question this one.
I mean, if you have even a couple of brain cells left, you have to know that nine months is not enough time to make something like that safe, right?
And as Don said, you know, unfortunately, I do have a personal story with vaccine injury.
My son was very seriously injured by the flu shot, actually, of all things.
He has, and that's been confirmed actually by his immunologist as well as other specialists, so it's not just me saying it, but he has some very serious medical problems as a result of a vaccine, and that's how I got involved in this actually.
It's very personal for me, and I think that's another reason that people are waking up day by day now, is that we're seeing injuries.
You know, I talked to a nurse earlier who told me that two of Her co-workers, who just got the vaccine about a week ago, are now deathly sick, really, really sick, and have to call out for Christmas.
They can't work tomorrow or the next day.
Now, in the nursing world, unless you're on your deathbed, you don't call out on a holiday because day shifts have to be mandated.
These are night shift nurses.
And on top of it, you lose a lot of pay.
You just don't do that.
That's like unheard of, she said.
But these two people both had to because they're so, so ill within just a couple of days after getting the shot.
I mean, I can't prove that's a vaccine reaction, but I mean, things like that.
I'm hearing reports.
Don and I run these organizations, and obviously, the vaccine awareness and medical freedom is a big part of what we do.
We've been getting flooded with reports from all over the country from people, not just what you're seeing in the news, not just the Alaska cases, which there are several cases now in Alaska, but we're hearing reports from all over the country of people having very serious adverse reactions.
That's enough to wake a lot of people up.
Well, yeah.
And what?
A hospital in Chicago suspended vaccinations at some point because so many nurses were getting sick.
And again, this isn't even the time when we're expecting to see the most adverse events.
That's going to come after the second shot and then even many months after that.
You know, imagine the reports we're going to see by March.
Well, it's crazy.
I literally just got something coming right now that there is a nurse in New York City with Steven Johnson syndrome, which quite frankly I'm not even familiar with, but apparently this woman is on the brink of death and her skin is literally falling off her face.
Whoa.
And this is from a close contact.
So this isn't some crazy person, you know, that just sent me a random report.
This is a very good friend of mine that gives me very solid intel.
And, you know, we're not going to hear about that because that's too much for the media to run with.
They'll tell that people had anaphylactic shock.
You know, we should test for allergies first.
You know, maybe we'll skip over your group.
But they're probably not going to report on something like that.
Yeah, and isn't it interesting, you know, Candace Owens said something about this that I thought was right on the money.
She said, the media tells us we should believe women when it comes to the Me Too movement.
Oh, always believe women.
If a woman says that she was inappropriately touched, she should be believed.
But then the moment that same woman says, my child was damaged by a vaccine, the same media will say, oh no, she's a crazy conspiracy nut.
Right.
Well, we've been saying this for a long time.
I have the right to abort my child, but not to care for my child in a way that I find to be most sensible and reasonable and that aligns with my values and my beliefs.
It's absolutely insane.
If I wanted to, you know, murder my child, that's okay if I live in New York or Virginia or any of these other blue states, but God forbid I actually want to raise them in a healthy manner.
No, that's not allowed.
Yeah, the state wants to mandate everything.
And now, you know, this COVID situation is giving them the apparent justification.
Back to you, Brian, on this.
But they're seizing upon this to say that they have the right to invoke emergency powers.
And these emergency powers are unconstitutional almost by default.
You know, they allow governors to take you out of your home.
Without a search warrant, for example, to relocate you to a quarantine camp, essentially, without your consent, without you even being diagnosed.
The CDC has this power under federal law right now.
It's incredible.
They have the power, but they don't have the power.
Because as you mentioned, you said by default.
I'm glad you used that term, by default, that they're unconstitutional.
Any law, or that they're invalid, any law that violates the Constitution is de facto invalid.
So the fact that we have a law, for instance, in the state of Connecticut, that gives the governor power.
We actually do have a statute, 19A-131A, which gives the governor authority.
It was passed back in 2003.
It's not something they just rushed through this year.
Gives the governor authority to issue emergency orders, basically as broad as he likes, and to order the commissioner of public health to do things like quarantine, mandatory vaccination.
That's actually in our statute.
So it is a law, but it's not legal.
Because it violates the Constitution.
So it doesn't matter that the legislature passed a law giving him authority because they don't have the authority to give him the authority to violate the state or federal Constitution.
I mean, it's as simple as that.
Well, and I want to mention this concept of declaring yourself to be a sanctuary person because you know how left-wing cities declare themselves to be sanctuary cities or sanctuary states in some cases in regards to nullifying federal immigration law.
Well, hey, and there are counties that have done this.
If there can be a sanctuary city, sanctuary county, there could be a sanctuary neighborhood, there could be a sanctuary household, there could be a sanctuary person.
So the next time they say, oh, you have to take a vaccine, you have to do this, you have to be tracked and traced.
No, I'm a sanctuary person.
Which really means a sovereign person, right?
That's what it means.
But just use the word sanctuary.
All of a sudden, they're caught in their logic trap.
Or I identify as a person who doesn't need a vaccine.
We're going to have to come up with the whole line of those.
Right.
Or I self-identify as a person who was already vaccinated.
Or my other gender was already vaccinated.
My other 86.
Yes, my other gender.
But, you know, this gender today doesn't need a vaccine.
My other one was already vaccinated.
You know, whatever.
I mean, use their crazy logic against them.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Although we have found that doesn't work very well in our favor.
Only the crazy people are allowed to do that.
And, you know, we're the different kind of crazy people.
That's true.
It's like the whole world's upside down.
Literally.
It's like everything is literally upside down.
Yeah, it is.
So let's talk about some solutions that people in Connecticut right now, and I know your group reaches more than just people in Connecticut, but talk about what can people do in conjunction with the organizations that you and Brian represent?
What can they actually do now to make a difference instead of just sitting behind a keyboard and hoping for change?
Sure.
So I'll talk on the prepping aspect of it and what we're taking action on doing that.
And then I'll pass the baton to Brian and he could talk more from the organizational standpoint of what we're doing.
I've been getting all of our local network people because I'm still very close with all of our people in Connecticut, as well as everywhere else that I'm traveling and all my close networks to get prepared, get their ham radio license.
Get their food supplies ready to roll, get their water, you know, everything that they possibly need.
This is new territory for most of these people.
So we've just been encouraging people to become more informed so that if and when it does hit the fan, which I believe it's going to one way or the other, just what it looks like is, you know, yet to be determined, so that they're ready for it and they can take it on.
They can at least take care of their families and, you know, have their radios and ways to still communicate.
There have been some talks, although I won't talk much about them, about some Underground Railroad type plans, essentially, that people can put into play, but that's a little bit trickier in our 2020 version of society.
So there are some things on that level.
And then as far as the organization goes, I'll pass that to Brian so he can talk about what we're doing on the state level in Connecticut.
Well, yeah, on the state level and in all states, as I mentioned before, we want to take action legally against these tyrants who have usurped our authority.
The state exists to serve us.
That's what they've forgotten.
They don't exist for us to serve them, but they exist to serve us.
So we want to remind them of that by holding them accountable.
We're going to continue to file lawsuits.
We're going to continue to hold events to organize people like we've done.
With the Connecticut Freedom Alliance, for instance, we've had a lot of virtual events, but we've had a lot of in-person events, and we've continued We want to continue to do that even going forward in the future.
We don't accept this as a new normal.
People are still going to connect.
One of my favorite memes that's floating around now, I've seen it a few times now, I saw it again this morning, is the American Revolution was planned.
In taverns, in restaurants, and in churches.
Do you understand the lockdowns now?
And that's exactly right.
We are trying to connect people.
So what we're doing as an organization is we are connecting people all over the country.
So we have people contact us at We the Patriots, but sometimes even the Connecticut Freedom Alliance from all over, from Texas, from Wyoming, from Idaho, all these places all across the country.
And Australia.
Well, we have the world too, true.
But we have people contact us and they're looking to connect with other people and they're looking for resources.
We provide them with resources to the extent we can or at least information to point them in the right direction.
So we're almost sort of like a, I don't want to say a clearinghouse, but we're a network of bringing organizations together because we need to stay together and we need to create a network.
Don was talking about an underground network.
What that means, again, it's not anything nefarious.
We're not plotting any kind of violence.
We're peaceful people.
What that means is we would have a way to communicate, she mentioned ham radios, a way to communicate that's off the grid, that's off the internet, okay?
Because that, as you know, the Chinese and a lot of other bad people have hijacked our communication systems in this country.
You've spoken about this before, Mike, and we have spoken about it as well.
China, honestly, is the greatest threat.
They won't let you talk about it on most of mainstream media, but China is the greatest threat to this country, and big tech is the other greatest threat.
Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube are the greatest threats to our republic, as far as I'm concerned.
Yes.
Well, I appreciate your explanation.
I'm glad you mentioned that we are peaceful people.
And yet, as peaceful people, we all have the right to self-defense.
And, you know, I even did an article about this very point, which is what is the morality of defending your nation against an enemy occupation?
So, for example, just to talk about the French resistance in World War Two, was it moral and ethical?
Was it aligned with Christian values to kill occupying Nazi soldiers in the city of Paris or to set off bombs in meeting places where German soldiers were meeting as they were occupying and pillaging your nation?
And the answer, of course, is yes.
Those were ethical, moral actions.
So, you know, and I'm saying this, not you, and I'm not trying to put words in your mouth, but...
There is a point at which self-defense becomes the overriding factor when your nation is occupied and under assault and you are being assaulted and stripped of all of your liberties.
There is a point, as history has shown, and no one would argue that the French resistance was wrong, right?
So I think we should all keep that in mind as we think about where this is going in America, and we should pray that Trump finds a solution before it goes to that phase here in the United States.
I couldn't agree more.
I mean, I honestly believe it's our duty.
And as a veteran, I swore to fight against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
And we have a lot of both going on right now.
And we can't just sit by and allow that to occur.
I mean, we have children, hopefully grandchildren in the future, if most of the society hasn't been sterilized by that point.
You know, we can't leave this behind to them.
We didn't have to grow up during this.
I mean, the pot was already boiling, right?
But we didn't know it at the time.
We had at least The illusion of peace and security and prosperity.
And we can't leave this COVID insane time.
I mean, my kids are growing up with this.
They know this isn't normal.
All they do is hear me.
I'm sure they're sick of listening to me talk all the time.
But they're very aware of what's going on in the world.
But their friends aren't.
And they're scared.
And they don't understand.
Like, my kids get it.
But they're no less enthusiastic or more enthusiastic than anyone else.
They're having to...
Sift through all of this.
You know, it's very challenging as a parent to be raising children during these COVID times.
Do your kids go to public school?
Absolutely not.
My children are homeschooled.
Okay.
So they interact with other people in homeschooling social environment?
Not as much as they were before.
We were much more involved in that stuff before because, unfortunately, not everybody is aware of what's going on.
A lot of people have bought into all this COVID stuff.
A lot of people are too scared to break the rules, so to speak.
Most of the school systems and even the co-ops have been shut down.
So there's not as much person-to-person contact anymore.
You know, our church is totally open, no masks.
No restrictions, no lockdowns of any kind.
So there's still, you know, some areas of opportunity for that.
My little one's at the park right now running around with like 40 other little kids that are unmasked.
So, you know, we still get out there as much as we can, but it's much more of a struggle.
The good thing about it is that you immediately have this unspoken bond when you see another unmasked person in the streets.
I cannot tell you how many business cards I've passed out over the last six months in, what, 20-something states now, Brian, something like that, as I was driving across the country and just networking the whole way, trying to bring up We the Patriots so people understand that this is actually happening and we're ready to do something about this.
And there are great patriots all across America.
They just don't know...
Who the other great patriots are.
They don't know where to plug themselves into.
They don't know, you know, someone needs to lead the charge, so to speak.
And people are looking for that.
I think there are a lot more good people that don't want to see this occurring and that want to take action.
They're just not sure what to do.
And I do see more people questioning the lack of rationality behind it.
For example, we were told all year long that we have to stay locked down and wear masks until a vaccine is ready.
Now that the vaccine is ready, you have people like Dr.
Gupta saying, well, even with the vaccine, you still have to stay locked down.
You still have to wear a mask.
You still have to practice social distancing.
It's like, well, wait a second.
What happened to your antibody theory?
You know, did you just throw that out the window?
Yeah, Fauci did as well.
He made a comment on that the other day.
I was tossing that around on the internet.
It's just ridiculous.
And it's just sad that, I don't know what percentage of people actually believes in it, but some percentage of people actually did vote for Biden.
Some percentage of people are actually terrified by the mainstream media's inaccurate reporting, and they're following along with this.
And it's really sad to see the brainwashing in real time.
Well, and the craziest thing, and this is directed back to Brian, the craziest thing is when you hear people say that they're going to take these vaccines because they believe in the science.
It's like, it's an absurd joke.
What science are you referring to?
They don't know what they're referring to because they've never read the science.
That's the problem.
It's just sort of a catchphrase.
It's sort of like another way of virtue signaling, right?
Believe science, or I'm going to wear this mask to protect you, or I'm going to do, you know, we're all in this together.
You know, all of these catchphrases that they come up with that are feel good, but really mean nothing.
They have no substance.
Five seconds.
It's what we'd call in the law, yeah, I'm sorry, it's what we'd call in the law elevating form over substance.
Yeah, exactly.
I was just going to say, you know, five seconds earlier, before they said, I believe in science, that same person said, I believe in transgenderism.
So, you know, you can't believe in both.
Well, listen, people, you know, we, I'm just going to say, at We the Patriots and Connecticut Freedom Alliance, we let people have whatever beliefs they want.
We let people live their lives whatever way they want, okay?
We don't judge people.
We don't put people in boxes.
America is about free speech.
But what's curious about that, Mike, is that they can say whatever they want on whatever topic they want.
But If I want to speak about freedom and truth and justice and what really happened in this election, for instance, I'm censored.
All of a sudden, we're being accused of being somehow extremists and white supremacists and everything else because values, which happened, you call them conservative values.
I don't call them conservative values.
I call them American values.
I call them values of The Founding Fathers and the Constitution and of freedom and liberty.
I mean, these are the founding principles of this country, but they've twisted that to the point where, now I'm a civil rights attorney, to the point where many of my colleagues, okay, in the legal profession and in this field, in civil rights, do not agree with Martin Luther King in civil rights, do not agree with Martin Luther King Jr. anymore.
They think his philosophy is wrong and they disrespect him because he believed in judging a person based on the content of their character and not the color of their skin.
But now they've made the color of one's skin, again, a part of their identity politics where it's, you know, we should only be focusing on the differences in skin color.
And that should be the focus.
It's become so twisted.
Martin Luther King Jr.
would be his Absolutely, and I'm with you.
I believe in civil rights, and I believe in independent...
The way you want to live your life is your own business, as far as I'm concerned.
But I demand that people...
Well, look at the Pope right now, Mike.
He says he condemns abortion in one breath, but it's perfectly fine for the greater good to accept a vaccine.
Exactly.
I actually wrote a blog post about that just the other night.
It's on the Connecticut Freedom Alliance website.
There's a link.
If you go to ctfreedomalliance.org, there's a link at the top to blogs.
And I wrote a blog post that religious freedom is more than religion.
And it's getting some pretty good traction because I respond to the Catholic Church's position and why, as a Catholic myself, number one, I absolutely disagree with the position, but number two, it doesn't really matter.
It's irrelevant in terms of the First Amendment because we're allowed to have our own personal religious beliefs and we are not bound under the First Amendment.
The Supreme Court has said this multiple times.
We're not bound by the official teachings and tenets of any one particular church.
Yeah, exactly right.
And the Supreme Court, by the way, in my view, has just committed credibility suicide with that Texas decision because if, you know, the states have a compact and the states agree to come together and guarantee a Republican form of government, To share that agreement with other states.
And, you know, if an individual state that was harmed by a fraudulent election, if they tried to take it directly to the Supreme Court, SCOTUS would say, well, we don't have original domain.
File it with your local court.
The local court's corrupt.
So only another state can file with SCOTUS. And then SCOTUS says, well, you don't have a right to file because you're a different state.
So it's a catch-22.
You can't win.
This is why we believe that we need military tribunals.
That's the only way at this point because our system is so corrupt.
I have hope that the military is not as corrupt and there are good patriots all throughout the system at all different levels that are going to uphold the law.
Can I just step in?
I don't fully agree that everything is corrupt.
I'm just going to depart from Don just for a moment because if I believed that the courts were corrupt and that all these judges were corrupt all over the country, I would have left the profession a long time ago.
I would not remain in a corrupt profession.
However, what I do believe is, as I mentioned before, with regard to courts anyway, It's a lot of corruption, yes, in government in general, but with regard to courts, I believe that there is a tremendous lack of courage and bravery, which is very different from corruption, that people are spineless.
They don't want to be the one to make this decision that would overturn, in their minds, the will of the people, but it's not the will of the people.
They can see the evidence.
The evidence is overwhelming.
I haven't seen all the evidence.
But even the evidence that I've seen that's been released publicly by people like Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell and Lynn Wood, the people you mentioned before, even that evidence that has been publicly released is overwhelming in the statistics.
I mean, think about this.
Biden lost in all of these counties, all throughout America, except in these swing states that he needed.
Right.
So he lost with minorities, for instance.
He lost with, you know, class white suburban women.
He lost in every demographic you could think of in all of these other counties outside of the swing states.
But suddenly in Detroit and in Philadelphia and in these few select places, Atlanta, these few select cities, he wins overwhelmingly in those places.
So people there just think We're good to go.
An X number has been certified to have been for Trump, which means only Y number can be possible for Biden.
So if he exceeded that, now we're talking either Dominion or Common Core math.
It's not even feasible.
Well, I mean, he did extraordinarily well in the demographic of the no longer living.
The phantom voters were all in for Biden.
They love his policies because they're death policies.
So it resonated with dead people.
I mean, come on.
How come you can't see that?
I don't understand.
But anyway, look, we need to wrap this up.
So I've got to ask you final thoughts.
Dawn, what do you want to leave people with after this interview?
Sure.
We just want to let people know on our website, wetepatriotsusa.org, we have a Declaration of Independence.
While we, of course, honor everything that our founding fathers did, we decided to modernize it a little bit for 2020 to continue.
Speak directly to the issues that we are all currently facing right now.
We'd love people to check it out, sign up for our email list, get connected, get informed, get active.
We have a commercial coming out soon that will be highlighting the egregious acts by all the traitors of the United States of America, and we're going to be getting it out there to the best of our ability.
Everyone who can see it and share with their networks, we really want to push all this content out.
Brian had a great call just the other day with someone who really knows how to get around censorship in a different way.
I know you're like the spokesman, you're like the poster boy for censorship.
I've been having to go directly to naturalnews.com for I can't even count how many years now.
We're trying to get around that to the best of our ability.
While people are scared off Instagram and Facebook and all these other platforms that are finally coming clean, so to speak, by telling you how they're stealing your information and they're tracking you, that's been happening all along.
Yeah.
Now people are aware of it, so they're running away from social media.
Ladies and gentlemen, that's been happening since day one.
You can't really think that if you're on the internet, you're safe from NSA and corporations and all other government bodies tracking you.
We already know what's happening.
So the time to hide would have been like a decade or two ago.
Well, keep us posted about this Declaration of Independence and the list of treasonous actors.
We'd like to republish that.
That sounds great.
Excellent.
Thank you so much, Micah.
It was a pleasure.
So yeah, just join us on our website.
We really want to get more people energized and pay attention over the next few days.
Let's watch what happens.
And if we don't start seeing the kind of action we're looking for, you guys know what to do.
WeThePatriotsUSA.org is one of the websites.
And Brian, how would you sum up what people need to be doing right now?
Well, I echo Dawn's sentiments and her thoughts, and I would say absolutely, please not only visit the WeThePatriotsUSA.org website and read that declaration, a new Declaration of Independence, but sign it.
We've created it like a petition so we can collect signatures from all over the country of patriots.
You know, we called it We The Patriots for a reason.
There's a lot of people that use the term, you know, we the people, which, of course, is the term that was used by our founders.
But we said we the patriots for a reason, because it's a certain type of individual that's going to stand up.
It's not going to be all of the people.
We know it's not going to be all of the people.
It's going to be the patriots, the ones who really want to defend what this country was founded upon.
And, you know, just like, you know, Don mentioned, we are obviously creating backups and moving off the social media.
But for now, we do still have Facebook groups, We the Patriots, USA, as well as Connecticut Freedom Alliance.
You're free to join as well as Twitter at KeepCTFree.
We have a A very large following on that Twitter account at KeepCTFree as well as at WeThePatriotsUS.
And the last thing I'll just ask you, Mike, is I hope I didn't disappoint you because I heard a couple of weeks ago you were on a podcast saying that usually lawyers are really boring to interview and to talk to, but that's why you like Sidney Powell.
So I hope I didn't let you down.
Well, I love patriot attorneys.
I'll tell you that.
And she's like, I want a poster of her on the wall.
You know, like college students want Playboy posters.
But I want her in military camo fatigues with a gavel.
To me, that sounds awesome.
We might see that in another couple of days, so I'm watching.
Maybe by Monday we'll see some action in that.
If you don't mind, I'm just going to add one more thing.
I essentially scour the internet every single day, and I post the most relevant intel that I can, you know, essentially certify to be true to the best of my knowledge.
And I post it all on our We the Patriots telegram channel.
So if people are looking for an uncensored place to be other than brighteon.social, join me on Telegram, WeThePatriotsUS.
The USA was not allowed for something.
And I threw the link in there, Mike, for you in the chat.
It's a great place to get uncensored information.
Feel free to share it all around.
Your posts always go up on there.
Your podcast episodes.
And I want to bring one more thing to your attention that you may or may not already be aware of, but Apple is shadow banning you now as well.
I haven't had an update from you since Thursday on Apple.
Well, Apple banned our ability to have an app years ago.
And they did that when you send them your app and then they have an in-house censor, look at it.
And they would say, well, we can find stories of how Satanism is bad.
Yeah, Satanism is bad.
And they said, no, it isn't.
You can't say that.
And then we would have, oh, here's a story about how abortion is bad.
You can't say that.
So I guess to have an app with Apple, as long as you love Satan and killing babies and left-wing values, then it's totally fine.
You can have an app with Apple.
But not if you love America.
Apparently not.
Yeah.
Well, luckily we have people like you with all these great platform alternatives out there.
So thank you for everything that you do.
Yeah, I wasn't even aware we were still using Apple.
Probably my team was still posting stuff there.
But anyway, yeah, for now, I mean, look, it's all Brighteon and direct to naturalnews.com and then your websites.
We'll put them on screen for everybody.
So that's the thing.
Go straight to the Patriot websites, folks, and don't let big tech filter your reality.
That's the bottom line.
So thank you, Dawn and Brian.
It's been a fascinating conversation.
I really appreciate you taking the time to join me today, and I hope we'll get a good response from this.
I look forward to talking to you again and getting more of your stories, your write-ups, your research documents that you're going to put out soon.
Absolutely.
Thanks so much.
Merry Christmas to you.
Yeah, Merry Christmas to both of you too.
