	Welcome everyone to Brighton Conversations.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of brighteon.com, the free speech alternative to YouTube.
	And today we're going to have a conversation that you definitely will not find on YouTube or Facebook or any of the big tech platforms that seem to have surrendered to Marxism and communism.
	No, today we're going to talk about freedom with a real champion of freedom in the United States.
	His name is Alex Newman.
	He is one of the principals at LibertySentinel.org, and he writes for TheNewAmerican.com and many other websites such as the Epoch Times and so on.
	And he has been on the mark on so many topics.
	We had to invite him on to come talk about elections, COVID lockdowns, culture wars, and much more.
	Alex, thank you for joining me today.
	It's an honor to have you on.
	It's an honor to be here.
	Thank you so much, Mike.
	I so appreciate your work, and I'm really happy to be here.
	Thank you.
	Well, absolutely.
	Our audience is going to be thrilled just to see this conversation.
	So let's start with the post-election situation here.
	Where do you think we are?
	We're recording this right before, what is today, the 23rd.
	So right before Christmas, essentially.
	A lot of things could happen over the next few days.
	Bill Barr is out as of today.
	Sidney Powell is rumored that she might be appointed as special counsel.
	There was a new memorandum signed yesterday by Trump about special counsels being able to use classified information to seek criminal indictments against deep staters and so on.
	What do you make of all this?
	Where do you think this is headed, let's say, including January 6th?
	Well, it's obvious the election was rigged.
	There's no question about it right now.
	Now, I think anybody who doesn't have their head buried in the sand, anybody who's not willingly ignorant knows this election was rigged.
	In fact, the polling data shows that almost all Republicans and even a lot of Democrats, I would suspect most Democrats know, too.
	But for political reasons, they want to pretend like everything was fine.
	So we have a stolen election where an illegitimate candidate, Joe Biden, who is completely controlled by the deep state, by communist China, by the enemies of the United States, people who literally want to overthrow our system of government.
	They hope he's going to be coronated.
	It's kind of a Trojan horse to bring in the whole deep state back into the White House, the Communist Chinese and all the rest of it.
	And Trump has indicated very clearly, I think, that he's not going to just sit by and let that happen.
	In fact, he released another video that the media is completely silent about, short video, 13 minutes, where he explained he's going to use all lawful, legal, and constitutional means to ensure that the election fraud is stopped.
	So I think...
	I just had a wonderful conversation this morning with Joanna Martin Publius Hulda, who used to be a military lawyer, one of the top constitutional attorneys.
	She's been at the forefront of trying to hold back the efforts to rewrite or even throw out our constitution.
	And she walked through the constitutional and legal issues here.
	And what she said is really Trump has no option.
	He actually has a duty to invoke the Insurrection Act.
	I've spoken with generals and admirals about this question.
	The top people in the military are saying the same thing.
	It's not just one option.
	It may be the only thing left.
	And he must do it, is what they're saying, because we have an enemy of the United States put in place through election fraud with help from foreign governments.
	So if Trump does that, I think things could get very intense.
	And he may have to do that if Congress refuses to do its job.
	So things are changing very quickly, but I can assure people Trump is not just going to roll over and play dead.
	I'm very happy that Barr is gone.
	Not a big fan of the new acting AG. He's a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, one of the key deep state organizations.
	But the things that have happened over at the Department of Defense, I think, are very positive.
	Chris Miller, the new acting head of the DOD, is a good man.
	Trump put in General Tata as Undersecretary of Defense.
	He's got Ezra Cohen-Watnick.
	These are good patriots.
	These are people who love America and will support the president if it comes to it.
	And, you know, the Constitution is very clear.
	When you have an insurrection, the federal government has an obligation to use the militia to enforce the laws of the union and to put down the insurrection.
	We have an insurrection right now, and we have...
	The laws of the union when it comes to federal elections not being enforced.
	And so I think it's going to have to come to that if this isn't resolved very quickly, either in Congress or the courts or the state legislatures, and it looks like that's going to be the case.
	Well, you've covered a lot of ground there.
	Let me get into some questions on this.
	And you're right.
	The Insurrection Act allows the President to invoke both the militia as well as the U.S. armed forces in defense of the nation.
	And I also agree that President Trump took an oath.
	He's sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
	He cannot turn over We don't know everything about Biden yet.
	Trump has probably seen lots of documents and lots of, you know, proof of financial transactions and so on that we have not seen yet.
	And by the way, VP Pence has probably seen those things as well.
	And also I spoke with the founder of Oath Keepers, one of the perhaps best known militia groups in America.
	He told me, I think it was yesterday morning, that all Trump needs to do is order the military to stand down and just activate the militia, tell the militia, go round up the deep state traders and they will get it done.
	You know, so Trump has all these assets, but he's not calling on them.
	He hasn't called on the military.
	He hasn't called on a militia.
	The court option, the civil court option, appears to be a total failure because it's so corrupt.
	Doesn't this eventually end up with either militia groups or military in some way?
	I mean, isn't that where this is headed?
	It seems very likely.
	And, you know, I wouldn't say that's the ideal option.
	It would be much better if some of these other elements of the federal government would do their job, right?
	As many have pointed out, under Article 4 of our Constitution, every part of the federal government has not just a right but a duty to preserve and protect a Republican form of government for each of the states in the Union.
	A republic means we have elections.
	A republic means we have rule of law.
	A republic means we elect our representatives.
	And what happened in this farce of a 2020 election bears no resemblance to that.
	And so the courts have an obligation to step in here, and they have not done so.
	The Congress has an obligation to step in here, and it has not done so.
	And so Congress does have the authority under the Constitution to call up the militia, or as you mentioned, the armed forces of the United States that are available to To suppress insurrections and to enforce the laws of the Union as appropriate.
	And they actually delegated that responsibility to the president.
	Actually, in the early 1800s under President Thomas Jefferson, when they passed the Insurrection Act, they said if the president determines that there is an insurrection or that the laws of the union are not being enforced in the normal course of affairs, then the military gets involved.
	And so what the mechanics of that look like, I'm not sure yet, but Trump does have that option.
	He has many great patriots who are advising him to at least consider that option, if not exercise it.
	And some of this has come out in the press now.
	You know, General Flynn has been talking about this.
	General McInerney, who we interviewed for The New American, has been very vociferous about this.
	He says, look, this is not just regular election rigging.
	This is a hostile attack.
	This is a war on the United States.
	And if the enemy in this war gets control of our armed forces by hijacking the presidency, it will be catastrophic.
	There will be no way to recover from that.
	So Trump doesn't just have a right to do these things.
	He has an obligation if all other options are off the table.
	Well, and in a sense, the national security concerns here dwarf anything that happened even during the historical Pearl Harbor.
	Because now we have what some people are calling a cyber Pearl Harbor.
	I've called it a cyber Red Dawn, because I think China is behind it, frankly.
	And, I mean, it's clear.
	Anytime the media says Russia, it's China, right?
	So we've come to learn that.
	But they breached the Department of Energy.
	They breached the National Nuclear Security Administration.
	They may have obtained all kinds of information about resources of where nuclear missiles are, nuclear material being decommissioned, nuclear material being transported that could be hijacked, stolen and used to make dirty bombs domestically.
	I mean, all kinds of things.
	This is being done by China and China's puppet is Joe Biden.
	How can we allow China more control over this country?
	I mean, obviously we can't.
	And and and also how late is it in this game where it seems like maybe two thirds of the Democrats elected to public office are on China's payroll in one way or another?
	It's incredible.
	It really is.
	And you know, I've been sounding the alarm about Communist China and the relationship of the Communist Chinese to the deep state here in the United States from the beginning of my career in journalism.
	Fresh out of the University of Florida, I got my journalism degree right away.
	I started working on China and I wrote articles for all kinds of publications all over the world about the penetration of all of our institutions by Communist Chinese agents.
	And I think the most important thing for people to remember here The Communist Chinese have been, still are to this day, a tool.
	They're partners with the globalist elites in the United States.
	And that actually goes back right to the beginning of the revolution.
	You had deep state swamp creatures in our Department of Defense, in our State Department, who made a deliberate and conscious decision to betray the people of China into communist slavery.
	People like George Marshall, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of State, who if he wasn't a communist, he was a dang good imposter, member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
	They put an arms embargo on our ally, Chiang Kai-shek, the leader of free China, so that Chairman Mao and his mass murdering vicious thugs could enslave that nation.
	Then at every step of the way, these totalitarians in the United States, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderberg, the Trilaterals, the Bohemian Grovers, the Skull and Bonesmen, all these little groups have been building up communist China to the world threat that it is today.
	And they've been doing it pretty openly.
	I mean, the media won't connect the dots for you, but the evidence is all there.
	In the early 1970s, David Rockefeller, the chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations for years and years, steering committee of the Bilderberg, the regular attendee at Bohemian Grove, founder of the Trilateral Commission.
	He went over to communist China, came back and published an op-ed in The New York Times in August of 1973.
	It's still on their website from a China traveler.
	He says that, you know, everything's wonderful in China.
	They've got unity of purpose, dedicated administration.
	In his conclusion, he said that the social experiment under Chairman Mao in China is one of the most successful and important in all of human history.
	Why?
	Fast forward to a couple years ago, you have George Soros running around saying Communist China should own the new world order like the U.S. owned the old one.
	He says that Communist China is a better functioning government than the United States.
	The deep state is in bed with Communist China, and now President Trump is left with the people loyal to him facing down powerful elites in this country, the establishment wing of the Republican Party, the Democrat Party, and the mass murdering butchers in Beijing versus the American people.
	But do you think that Trump does not fully recognize what happens if he fails?
	Because there are millions of well-armed Americans who are not going to sit back and just take this.
	It's not going to be like China versus Hong Kong, because the Hong Kong protesters, they don't have AR-15s and better weapons.
	You know, we have a very strong Second Amendment in this country, and we have millions of patriots who are just fed up with it.
	If Trump doesn't find a solution here, this is going to go probably into some kind of kinetic phase.
	I don't know if you want to call it civil war or resistance or what, but it seems clear to me that it's going there.
	And that's an even worse case for America.
	We don't want to see that happen on the streets of our country.
	Absolutely not.
	In fact, that would be a terrible occurrence.
	In fact, I think the deep state would love to see a civil war in the United States where nobody knows who's on whose side.
	Eventually, they bring in foreign troops under the guise of peacekeeping.
	The deep state would absolutely love that, totally discredit the idea of America and freedom and our Second Amendment.
	It would be an atrocity.
	But I think that is one of the things that they have in mind.
	And even if Trump does do what I think is required of him, that does not rule out a civil war.
	In fact, one of the things General McInerney said, we were on a call just a few days ago with U.S. Senator Ron Johnson and General McInerney, is that one of the first things that will happen when Trump takes serious action to crush this insurrection is a total explosion of violence across the United States, especially in Democrat jurisdictions.
	You'll have Marxist Black Lives Matter terror mobs setting buildings on fire, murdering police officers, throwing Molotov cocktails through people's homes and businesses.
	You'll have Pantifa running around with weapons, shooting people, causing all the chaos they can.
	And, you know, you're right.
	The American people are well-armed.
	They're not going to take that.
	We've got millions of veterans.
	We've got millions of highly skilled hunters who sit up in trees for days waiting to take a shot at a deer.
	You know, it could end very badly.
	And I'm afraid that without real caution here, It may end badly.
	So I hope Americans are praying for the country.
	I hope they're lifting up the president because we are in, I think, one of the most dangerous times of all of American history.
	And I really don't see a happy ending to this.
	I mean, even if President Trump does everything right, even if Congress decides to do their duty, this is not going to be an easy solution to a problem that really has been building and festering for generations now.
	It's just coming to a head at this moment.
	Yeah, you bring up some good points.
	Even if Trump wins and we put down the uprising, which can be done very effectively with military troops, by the way, under the Insurrection Act, we still have the whole problem that you've already hinted at here, which is that you've got universities and public schools indoctrinating at least which is that you've got universities and public schools indoctrinating at least one generation, maybe two generations, maybe more by now, into this left wing, you know, group think type
	This Orwellian twisting of logic and reason and hatred for America and hatred for the principles of free speech, so much so that many students in universities now, they no longer even believe in the freedom to speak at all.
	They say, if anything you say offends me, then you don't have the right to speak.
	And then, oh, well, who gets to define what's offended?
	Oh, well, it's the fact checkers who work for Facebook, who are these left-wing radical lunatics and so on.
	So we do have a much bigger problem, even if we solve this immediate problem.
	That's right.
	And I've been trying to tell people this for years now.
	We do have to focus on the here and now.
	We do have this immediate crisis that needs to be resolved.
	But over the long term, even if everything goes perfectly, insurrection gets put down, President Trump gets another four years, the vote fraud is proven, the criminals go to jail, we've still got the issue that the overwhelming majority of our young people have been indoctrinated to hate their country, To hate God, to hate individual liberty, to hate the Second Amendment, to hate freedom of speech, to hate their own families.
	And that is not going to be an easy problem to resolve.
	If you just look at the polling data, Mike, it's terrifying.
	In my generation, it's incredibly embarrassing to be a millennial because the stereotypes are largely true.
	We are a bunch of dumbed-down, ungrateful, incapable, radicalized Marxists and lunatics.
	The polling data is clear.
	70% of millennials say they're socialist.
	They're going to vote for socialist candidates.
	Over half of millennials...
	Now reject even the fundamental principles that our country was founded on.
	That's not going to be sustainable.
	So what's going to have to happen if everything goes well and we're able to get over this crisis is we're going to need a deradicalization program.
	I mean, these people are going to need to be brought back into reality.
	They're going to have to learn something about our real history, the value of our Constitution.
	And unless we solve that problem over the long term, we are still in major trouble.
	Well, President Trump, in signing a memorandum yesterday, he appointed a new person to the 1776 Commission, which is all about that, spreading truth about our founding principles through school systems and so on.
	But, right, they're up against a mountain, a wall of disinformation, propaganda, and even communist Chinese influence through things such as the Confucius Institutes and the universities, which are just communist indoctrination centers and Bribery schemes for university officials and so on.
	But what do you make of Ezra Cohen Watnick being appointed by President Trump as the chairperson of the Public Interest Declassification Board?
	That also happened two days ago as well.
	That seems like a big deal.
	What's your take on it?
	It's an incredibly big deal.
	I think President Trump is preparing to release all kinds of deep state secrets, and I guarantee you there are some people who didn't sleep very well last night.
	Ezra Cohen Watnick is a patriot.
	He was brought into the National Security Council by Mike Flynn.
	The swamp tried for years to destroy him.
	They had H.R. McMaster tried to fire him.
	Trump intervened and kept him in a job.
	was the director of intelligence there.
	Then Bolton tried to remove him.
	Again, Trump intervened and said, no, this man is staying.
	Trump then put him as undersecretary of defense, an incredibly significant position.
	And then he was one of the guys who helped create another really huge development at the Department of Defense when they put all special operations forces under the direct command of the secretary of defense, get them out from under the control of the deep state bureaucracy and put them in the hands of people who are loyal to their oath of office.
	So the fact that this young man is now going to help lead the effort to spill all of the deep state secrets, I guarantee you has got some people sweating bullets.
	That's a good thing.
	All of this evil needs to be exposed.
	And that starts with the administration declassifying everything that doesn't need to be classified for the sake of our national security, for the sake of the guys who are undercover in other countries.
	All of it needs to be public.
	And once these crimes are exposed, all of the criminals need to be thrown in prison.
	Could this be the big strategy for how the votes flip on January 6th?
	Because we do have two parallel slates of electors.
	If members of Congress, House and Senate, vote to recognize the Trump alternate electors on that day, then Trump wins on that day.
	It seems impossible, though, for the House to vote against the Biden electors unless something just earth-shattering, horrific, historic, just psychologically...
	The mother of all bombs gets dropped on the public between now and then.
	Do you think there's something that's classified that could drop that would fit that definition?
	I think that's a possibility.
	Now, that's not a guarantee that Nancy Pelosi will do the right thing.
	However, we've already started to see some inklings of what's going on.
	Just recently, for example, Congressman Eric Swalwell of California was exposed basically as a communist Chinese agent.
	He was literally in bed with a communist Chinese spy who helped him unseat a long-term incumbent.
	And he's sitting on the House Intelligence Committee.
	He is the tip I think Mitch McConnell happens to be one of them.
	I've said right from the very beginning, his wife, Elaine Chao, needs to be looked at under a microscope.
	She's a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
	As far as I'm concerned, if you're involved in the Council on Foreign Relations, if you're not a double agent, you need to be scrutinized.
	These people have a sworn animosity to the independence of the United States.
	The members of the CFR have been instrumental in building up the communist Chinese threat.
	Elaine Chao has personal family ties to the communist Chinese party.
	Her family fortune came as a direct result of her family's links to high ranking people in the communist Chinese party.
	So when you see the leadership in both houses of Congress, in both parties, compromised in this way with communist China, communist Chinese intelligence, you have a major crisis.
	This report, I think, from the director of national intelligence may be significant.
	It was supposed to be released last week.
	It wasn't.
	I understand the deep state is trying to sabotage it, but I don't believe that Trump will allow that to happen.
	But I think the information that's going to be coming out over the next few weeks is going to shock your average American.
	I mean, you and I, Mike, we've known this stuff for years, but your average American who's been glued to the to the idiot tube watching CNN or even Fox News, the controlled opposition, is going to be appalled when this stuff comes out.
	It's extraordinary how isolated a typical American is from the reality of what's going on.
	The compartmentalization of information that has been achieved by the media as well as big tech has been extremely successful.
	It's just shocking.
	People vote for Biden and have no clue about Hunter Biden's hard drive.
	They have no clue about Biden's admission of being involved in official corruption and bribery with Burisma in Ukraine.
	They have no idea that Joe Biden admitted publicly that the Democrats have built the most elaborate vote fraud organization in the history of American politics.
	I mean, that's a quote.
	I mean, can you imagine?
	We've got the video.
	But the average American has no clue what's going on.
	It's just shocking.
	It is.
	And, you know, I think one of the best things to have come out of this whole fiasco so far, Mike, it almost sounds kind of silly, but the discrediting of Fox News is one of the most important developments in the fight for freedom of the last 10 years, because Fox News has been the key to neutralizing conservatives in America.
	When Fox News had control over the conservative movement, nothing happened.
	Yeah, you'd get more truth on Fox News than you would on CNN or MSNBC or any of the network.
	That's true.
	But you wouldn't be very effective, controlled opposition if you didn't give a little more truth.
	And so it's kind of like rat poison.
	Yeah, there's more truth in the rat poison that comes from Fox News, but the poison is still embedded in there.
	And if you swallow it, it's still going to kill you.
	And I think the deep state miscalculated in the election.
	They knew that Fox News was going to be instrumental to making this a successful heist.
	And that's why they had Fox News call Arizona.
	That's why they had Fox News wait on Florida and Texas.
	Make it look like Biden had some momentum so that the steal would be a little more plausible.
	But what happened?
	Millions of faithful Fox News viewers who have been watching, have been glued to Fox News for years, realized, oh my goodness, Fox News is part of this too.
	We're done.
	We're done.
	And so millions of people have left.
	Their ratings have absolutely plummeted.
	That's going to continue.
	Those people aren't just going to wake up tomorrow and say, oh, well, you know, maybe Fox isn't that bad.
	It's over.
	So now people like you, people in the alternative media are gaining the platform that they deserve, the influence that they deserve.
	And that's something that's not going to be reversed with all the big tech censorship in the world.
	People are just moving over to platforms like Brighteon and BitChute and Rumble and Parler and MeWe and all the rest of them.
	And that's going to keep happening.
	Yeah, that's true.
	We could not have this conversation on YouTube.
	Never.
	They would never allow it, and yet we have it.
	But even when this is posted on Brighteon and people try to share the Brighteon link on Twitter, Twitter won't allow it, you know, and neither will Facebook and so on.
	But then people move to Parler and other social media outlets where you can share videos like this.
	So it is happening.
	The mass migration away from Facebook is almost as fast as the migration of business people away from California.
	Yeah.
	At this point, you know, people are like, you're going to take everything we ever earned and you're going to steal it from us and make us suffer and lock down?
	We're leaving.
	You know, it's a pretty obvious thing.
	But let's talk about your publication.
	LibertySentinel.org is the website.
	Just give our audience a feel for what you tend to cover there in case they're not familiar with your work already.
	Yeah, well, thank you, Mike.
	And so, Liberty Sentinel, actually, we started as a newspaper when I was in college.
	This was 2008 or so.
	And we were a print newspaper distributing, you know, 15,000 copies of every issue we were doing.
	It was phenomenal.
	But unfortunately, we didn't train up good people to take it over, the people who wanted to take it over when we left.
	I ended up not being of a like mind, so we shut it down.
	I rebuilt it a few years ago and turned it into my personal website.
	I post a lot there, my writings that don't fit with any of my other clients.
	Most of the time, I'm a freelance journalist, but when I have thoughts on religion or things that might be a little too controversial for some of my clients, I post them there.
	I've developed a wonderful network of other writers who contribute.
	I've got some deputy editors who help me edit it.
	And it's just, I think, a good source of good, accurate information from a biblical perspective on what's going on in the world and history and economics and all these important fields.
	So it's close to my heart.
	It has been for many years.
	Again, it's a small part of what I do.
	A lot of my writing, my investigative work goes at the New American Magazine.
	I'm a senior editor there.
	I'm working a lot now at the Epoch Times and a lot of different clients and publications.
	But LibertySentinel.org is near and dear to my heart.
	That's my kind of personal thing.
	And I hope people will check it out.
	You know, you don't have to agree with everything that's posted there, but I think you'll learn something and I think you'll find it valuable.
	So your worldview that comes through all your writing, if I could...
	I mean, you can correct me if I'm wrong on this.
	It's a pro-Christian, pro-American, pro-individual liberty, pro-human freedom worldview.
	That's exactly right.
	Perfect summary.
	And yet, you don't consider yourself like a GOP party person, for example.
	No.
	As far as I'm concerned, the Republican Party is almost worse than the Democrat Party, simply because they pretend to be our friends and then they stick the knife in our back.
	At least we know where the Democrats stand.
	They want to destroy us.
	Republicans suck up to us and then stick the knife in our back.
	I mentioned the exact same thing in my podcast yesterday.
	It's like Trump looking at Nancy Pelosi, at least you know she's the enemy.
	She's up front about it.
	But then Trump gets advisors in the White House, and they lie to you and say, no, we're your friends.
	And then when you turn your back, they stab you, you know?
	False friends are always more dangerous than known enemies.
	This has been understood in warfare strategy for thousands of years.
	The people who get close to you and pretend to be your friends are infinitely more dangerous to you than the open enemy who comes wearing the banner and the uniform of the enemy.
	So how much censorship have you been subjected to?
	Have you been deplatformed everywhere or not yet?
	We have been deplatformed quite a bit.
	Actually, I just got out of Facebook jail.
	I spent 30 days in Facebook jail for my commentary on the election fraud.
	Apparently the tyrants that run Facebook are not happy that people are discussing the fact that the election was stolen.
	More and more of my videos have come down from YouTube.
	Our channel is demonetized on YouTube right at the get-go.
	It's controversial.
	We're not going to monetize that.
	We haven't been banned yet from most places, but that's coming.
	The Facebook fact checkers have become increasingly aggressive.
	They just blatantly lie.
	For example, they'll create a straw man and say that I wrote what their straw man was, and then they'll debunk the straw man without ever actually addressing what I said.
	They become more sophisticated.
	The censorship is ramping up.
	We're not completely banned yet, but I'm sure that day is coming very quickly.
	Well, when we were first, our website, Natural News, was first banned by Google, and this was back in, I think, 2015 or something.
	It was a while ago.
	You guys were some of the first, and that's quite an honor.
	Yes.
	Yeah, we were the tip of the spear of being banned, that's for sure.
	They would make up false things.
	They would say, oh, your page had malicious code on it.
	And then we would get in touch with their engineers and say, what malicious code are you referring to?
	And they, oh, well, there really wasn't malicious code.
	It was just whatever.
	They would make up anything.
	And it's just like Democrats, isn't it?
	To say, oh, Trump, he won because of the Russian collusion.
	Or...
	Whatever the Democrats are doing, they will accuse you of doing.
	They project all their sins onto others around them.
	But the same thing is true in censorship.
	Like you said, they will make false arguments against you, or they will say that your content is dangerous.
	When you talk about vaccine skepticism, for example, they will say that you're promoting self-harm.
	Self-harm, you imagine somebody with a pair of scissors stabbing them.
	No, we're talking about self-preservation, is all.
	It's grotesque what they've done.
	And I remember when you guys were banned from Google long ago, and I was thinking, oh, it's just a matter of time before all the rest of us go down.
	But it really has gotten quite ridiculous.
	And I think it's now common knowledge.
	It's now mainstream understanding that the big tech companies are out of control, that when Facebook fax checks something, it's almost certainly misleading.
	Not the article itself, but the fact check.
	And, you know, I think this is ultimately going to backfire on them.
	If I was a shareholder in Alphabet and I'm not, I would be really upset.
	I mean, they're just purging and purging and purging.
	And what happens isn't like people say, oh, well, I guess my favorite content creators are gone.
	I guess I'll just watch something different.
	Of course not, right?
	They go to different platforms.
	If I own shares in Alphabet, which owns Google and YouTube, I would be absolutely furious because they're They're openly destroying their own business model.
	They're destroying their monopoly in order to propagandize people, and yet there really aren't that many monetary benefits from propagandizing people.
	So that is, in my view, a violation of their fiduciary duty to their shareholders, to their investors.
	But I think it's going to backfire on them.
	I think it's already happening, and I don't know how much longer they'll be able to keep this up.
	Well, there's this criminal cabal that is big tech, the Democrat Party, the fake news media, dirty money, you know, the chai comms and so on.
	This cabal, it is, in one way, it's very powerful because they control, they're the gatekeepers of what you're allowed to say.
	But it's also very fragile because people always have a choice to choose something else.
	That's right.
	And Trump could bring the whole thing down.
	Maybe he will with the declassification.
	Who knows?
	Yeah.
	And I think that's going to be one of the important things to come out of this.
	You know, if you look at these big tech companies, most of them got their start with help from the deep state.
	In some cases, overtly.
	Google is actually a perfect example.
	They got some of their initial money when those two guys are working in their garage from DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
	So they're taking our taxpayer money, they're building themselves a monopoly, and then they're weaponizing that monopoly to rig our elections, to silence the truth, to censor conservatives and Christians and people who are interested in good health and things like that.
	Not only is that flagrantly illegal, it's flagrantly immoral.
	And I think more and more of this is going to be coming out.
	The same thing with Facebook, right?
	A lot of their early investment and support came from people in the orbit of In-Q-Tel, the investment arm of the intelligence community.
	And as you examine these big tech companies in Silicon Valley, what you find is this is the case almost all the time.
	And then they buy up their competition.
	So even if a company did manage to start up and become successful, they get absorbed into the Borg through the big money that's coming through the deep state.
	So this multi-headed monster, this hydra, that is the deep state, one of the tentacles is the big technology companies.
	One of the tentacles is the big media.
	But more and more, all of these institutions are becoming discredited.
	And I think this is really good news, Mike.
	I think despite the horror show that's going on right now, I know it looks really grim today.
	For a lot of people, however, very good things are happening and these things are irreversible.
	The people who are waking up are not going to go back to sleep regardless of what happens in 2021 or 2022.
	Yeah, you've nailed it.
	The Great Awakening is here and people have lost faith in so many of the institutions that were supposed to be authority figures.
	I mean, who trusts the WHO anymore?
	Who trusts the CDC? Who trusts the FBI? I mean, the FBI has been exposed as a corrupt criminal cartel at every level.
	Who trusts the DOJ even at this point?
	Who trusts the courts?
	You know, every institution is failing it.
	And I think what the deep state players...
	Have misunderstood or miscalculated is that the function of the government has to come from the consent of the governed.
	And if people withdraw their consent, things can start to fall apart very quickly.
	And I think if they manage to destroy Trump, I think that America is going to become ungovernable.
	Yeah, you're absolutely right, Mike.
	And I think the deep state has this kind of incredible hubris.
	These guys, they've got all this money that they've looted from the American people.
	They've got all this power.
	They've got the fake media to do their bidding.
	But they really are underestimating the American people.
	Yeah, they've been dumbing us down for generations.
	Yeah, they've brainwashed our children.
	However, if you go back through American history, and by American history, I go even all the way back to like the Magna Carta, right?
	Because they really are our forefathers.
	And what you see is that when the ruling class pushes too far, the people rise up and the people are successful.
	They beheaded one of the British kings when he went too far.
	Our direct forefathers in this country, when the king went too far, we went up against the most powerful military, the most powerful empire on the face of the planet, really to have existed.
	And we won.
	And we were just farmers, right?
	So when people get pushed far enough, it doesn't matter how much money you've managed to steal.
	It doesn't matter how many troops you can muster.
	The people will not take it.
	And when the people say enough is enough, it's over.
	It is absolutely over.
	And I think we're very quickly approaching that point.
	Now, we're talking about the Deep State a lot here.
	You've written a book about the Deep State.
	Do you have that handy?
	Can you show us that?
	I do.
	I've got a copy right here.
	It's called Deep State, The Invisible Government Behind the Scenes.
	And this was just released about a month ago.
	And we kind of break down who are the key players and how they operate.
	All right, so give us a little teaser of what's in that book and how pervasive is the deep state?
	And by the way, just as context, remember that when that term first came out, the entire left-wing media claimed that that was a conspiracy theory.
	There is no deep state.
	There is no scheming bureaucracy.
	Of course, that's the entire system, it seems to me.
	And they called it a conspiracy theory while they're running around with tinfoil hats on claiming that Trump is Russia collusion.
	It's so ludicrous.
	It's like a clown show.
	So what we do in this book, I start off by breaking down the key organizations that are involved in the deep state.
	Yes, the bureaucracy is a big part of it.
	The swamp that is the DOJ, the FBI, the Department of State.
	And of course, the intelligence agencies, the CIA, the NSA. I mean, these are a big component of the deep state, but I really view that as kind of the tools of the deep state, not so much the deep state itself.
	And so what I call the deep state behind the deep state, which is really much more important, If you listen to Sun Tzu, the ancient military strategist from China, absolutely brilliant.
	Thousands of years ago, he explained that if you don't know your enemy and you don't know yourself, just get ready, you're going to lose every single battle.
	But if you know yourself and you know your enemy, you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.
	And that is absolutely critical for everybody to understand.
	So we need to know who we are as Americans, our history, our constitution, and all the rest of it.
	And we need to know who the enemy is.
	And that's why I wrote this book.
	Because people need to know who are the enemies of the United States, who are the enemies of the American people who want to steal our freedom.
	So after we go through the bureaucracy and the intelligence community, we get into the deep state behind the deep state.
	I focus in on a handful of the organizations that I think are most critical.
	Of course, it's just a sampling of them, but the Council on Foreign Relations is key.
	Based in New York, Hillary Clinton said that when she was Secretary of State, they tell her what she should be doing and how she should think about the future.
	Joe Biden, China Joe, he was sitting on stage during that same thing where he admitted that they got the prosecutor in Ukraine fired who was investigating Hunter Biden.
	Yeah, that was a CFR meeting, yeah.
	That's right.
	He was sitting up there with the president of the CFR, Richard Haass.
	Richard Haass introduces himself.
	Hey, I'm Richard Haass.
	You can see the videos on YouTube.
	I work here at the Council on Foreign Relations.
	And Joe Biden says, and I work for Richard.
	And of course, Republican establishment is part as well.
	Dick Cheney was on our board of directors, a member for a long time.
	So CFR is absolutely critical.
	And the CFR, actually, if you go to the writings of Carol Quigley, Bill Clinton's mentor, he kind of viewed himself as part of the deep state.
	I don't know that they ever fully accepted him.
	But he said the CFR is actually a branch of a much larger international organization.
	I would argue it goes even back before that.
	But the CFR is critical.
	You've got the Trilateral Commission founded by David Rockefeller after he read Zbigniew Brzezinski's book.
	Basically, he said America is obsolete.
	Marxism is the next phase in human evolution.
	And then after that, we need world technocracy.
	You've got the Bilderberg.
	You know, I think most of your viewers know the Bilderberg.
	I've been to two of their meetings, obviously never as an invited guest.
	But you know what it is, what it is.
	And then you've got the secret societies that are much less visible, but they're just as important.
	The skull and bones at Yale is a good example.
	In 2004, I still remember that far back, you had a Republican and a Democrat, Bush and Kerry, both of them.
	We're members of the Skull and Bones.
	They take 15 new people each year.
	What are the odds that both major party presidential candidates come from the same secret society?
	And we know what they do.
	They do death rituals, and they sit in coffins, and they kiss skulls, and they do mock execution.
	It's just absolutely satanic.
	And my friend Charlotte Izabich, she was Ronald Reagan's senior advisor on education.
	Her dad and her grandpa were both members of the Skull and Bones.
	And when they passed away, she inherited all their documents.
	She gave them to, I think, one of America's most important historians, Anthony Sutton.
	And he wrote an incredibly important book called America's Secret Establishment.
	It's about the Skull and Bones.
	And what he explains, and this is so crucial to understanding how the deep state works, is that The way that this secret society operates is to try to control both sides of the conversation.
	So Bush and Kerry both are members.
	One of the key members of this secret society was William Buckley.
	He was basically the Pied Piper for the conservative movement.
	He was Mr.
	Respectable Conservative.
	So the New York Times and the Washington Post would say, well, here's your only legitimate conservative.
	And he says these conservatives can't be part of the conservative movement, so all of you need to obey William Buckley.
	And that keeps the conversation confined in this narrow little Overton window.
	You've got, of course, the Bohemian Grove where they sit in front of their 40-foot stone owl.
	And then the second part of the book gets into how they operate, how they start illegal wars, why they're invading our countries with mass migration from the nations that they destroyed with their illegal wars, the role of communist China in all this, how they use the public school system to turn our nation into radicalized Marxists and dumbed-down, indoctrinated zombies.
	And then finally, you know, the conclusion, what we can do about it.
	And, you know, a big part of it is, of course, education and exposing these things and supporting our Constitution.
	Well, you covered a lot of ground there.
	That's about 10 questions worth of information.
	You know, it is fascinating that you got into some of the occult rituals that they are into, these globalists, we'll say.
	But a question for you here is, it seems like their agenda has shifted to extermination, depopulation of the planet.
	You know, so many of the things that are happening right now, from engineering the virus, releasing the virus, having the economic lockdowns with no hope for economic freedom, even in America.
	What's going to be an endless stream of new vaccines because there was a mutation.
	Now you need an updated vaccine.
	Now you have to have a tracking app.
	You have to be microchipped.
	And on and on and on.
	It's never going to end.
	This is not a strategy for human prosperity.
	This is a strategy for human extermination, right?
	It's exactly right, Mike.
	And a lot of people struggle to accept that, but the evidence is absolutely overwhelming.
	And at this point, they don't even bother to hide it anymore.
	Prince Philip running around saying he wants to be reincarnated as a virus so he can deal with overpopulation.
	These people are obsessed with reducing the number of people on the planet.
	And I think once you understand that at its core, this is diabolical.
	This is evil.
	These aren't just people with stupid political ideas.
	These aren't people who mean well and just have dumb ideas.
	These are people who are evil.
	They hate you.
	They hate your children.
	They hate your freedom.
	If they let you live, they want you to be their slave.
	And once you understand that they think there's way too many of us, you know, they throw out numbers like we should have 500 million people left on the planet, then you understand the crux of their agenda.
	And that's why I say this is satanic.
	If you accept what God says, that people are made in God's image, it would follow then that if Satan hates God, he hates people who are made in God's image.
	So you see this fanatical zeal to get rid of people and to sterilize people and to brainwash people into not having children, to harm people, to kill people.
	Communist China is the perfect example.
	They murdered 100 million innocent people, not including the unborn babies, hundreds of millions of additional, hundreds of millions of lives snuffed out by these monsters.
	You think you're any more special than them?
	They will snuff you out in an instant and they'll be happy about it.
	That's what we need to understand.
	These people are wicked to the core.
	And I think your average person struggles to understand the depths of evil because they can't fathom that.
	Yeah, they can't because they themselves are not that evil.
	So they think that others can't match that level of evil.
	By the way, I have a theory that the global warming hoax was really the globalist's first attempts to lock down humanity under carbon controls and carbon tracking.
	And that failed.
	And so that's when they decided to go to a biological weapon.
	Because under the bioweapon, the fear...
	It was easier to propel, whereas global warming was very intangible to people.
	They look at the sky, it doesn't seem like it's that hot today, you know?
	But the virus is being pushed, and now with the vaccines coming out, and then big tech banning anyone who cites an injury of a vaccine, which has happened, admittedly, even by the FDA admits this now, now, CDC admits it.
	Aren't we looking at this cycle of exploitation where it's never going to end unless we somehow defeat this globalist system?
	Because they can roll out more viruses, more lockdowns, more vaccines, and then even if people die from the vaccines, they can say, well, those are COVID deaths, you see.
	So we need more vaccines and so on.
	How does that end?
	Yeah.
	You just hit the nail on the head.
	I've been going to these stupid UN global warming conferences since I started as a journalist 10 years ago.
	I've gone to probably eight or nine UN conferences all over the world.
	The last one that I went to was in Madrid, and it was just full-on, open, in-your-face.
	There's way too many people.
	I interviewed some of these guys on camera.
	They suspect that we're all Kool-Aid drinkers, so they don't even keep their guard up when they're talking.
	Like, you, everyone needs to stop having babies, especially you, white man, the Swedish people.
	There's way too many Swedes and all these recent – they're just fanatical about reducing the number of people on the planet.
	And you're right.
	The Club of Rome, which is another key deep state institution, Al Gore, Mikhail Gorbachev, all these totalitarians, they came together back in the early 90s after the end of the Cold War with the ostensible collapse of the Soviet Union.
	They said, well, we need a new enemy.
	What's going to unite us?
	They said, well, we have an idea.
	How about global warming?
	Because then humanity itself is the enemy.
	And they beat that dead horse for 20 years.
	And after decades of trying, they're like, man, people are just not that scared about something that is not really happening.
	We've got to come up with a new option.
	And you're right.
	COVID was the perfect, perfect tool.
	They actually managed to do all the things that they've been trying to do for decades with global warming.
	They got them all done in a short period with the fear of COVID. And that was always the key.
	Hitler understood this.
	You've got to terrify people so that they'll act irrationally, so that they'll give up their liberties, so that you'll do what they say.
	And global warming just wasn't scary enough.
	You've seen scientists out there praising these COVID lockdowns and saying, wow, look how clear the skies are.
	Look how clean the water is.
	Everything's awesome.
	Let's just keep humanity locked down forever.
	So we are seeing that.
	But now I want to ask you about this so-called global reset.
	Because, you know, this is being pushed out there.
	For a while, the media tried to say, oh, no, that's a conspiracy theory, too.
	No, but then so many globalists were saying, yes, we love the global reset, you know.
	Let's make it happen.
	And let me tie this to the stimulus bill, which is this runaway insane spending.
	Oh, a billion here, a billion there, 500 billion everywhere.
	And it's just endless money printing.
	But on the verge of a global reset, which apparently is going to make all fiat currencies valueless and take everyone's assets and force you to use a new, I don't know, like a UN digital crypto wallet or something with a microchip or something.
	Isn't this actually a way to accomplish the depopulation goal?
	Because they can take away everybody's wealth and force everybody into starvation.
	Absolutely it is, Mike.
	And again, you hit the nail on the head.
	What we're dealing with here, I think one of the key agendas of COVID was to absolutely destroy the middle class.
	We're seeing that now.
	People talk about the economy is suffering.
	Yeah, if you're in the middle class, if you're an average person, if you're an independent person, if you run your own business, you are being destroyed.
	If you're Jeff Bezos, Your share prices have doubled since the start of these lockdowns.
	Of course, he's using the Washington compost to spread more hysteria and demonize everyone who doesn't agree.
	If you're Walmart, your share prices have gone up more than 50% since the start of these lockdowns.
	So this is not economic destruction per se.
	This is destruction of the middle class, the independent American, the independent farmer, the independent rancher.
	They're being targeted all over the world.
	These globalists want control over the food supply.
	So the thinking is we need to cause enough economic misery up to and including mass hunger to be able to bring in these cataclysmic changes that we want under the Great Reset.
	And so you're right.
	The currency collapse is absolutely in the cards.
	They've been saying openly for well over a decade.
	In fact, in 1988, The Economist magazine ran an article, a cover story with a pile of burning U.S. dollars and a phoenix rising out of that where they called for a global currency.
	That is closer than it's ever been before.
	They want to turn the International Monetary Fund into the global central bank that will fund the emerging global government, just like the Federal Reserve funds the out-of-control United States government.
	That's the ultimate agenda, and you're right.
	Cash to society is an intimate part of this agenda, because once we get rid of cash, there's no more privacy.
	Every transaction is controlled.
	Every person must have permission from government and the banks to be able to do commerce.
	That's where...
	They hope this is all going.
	But you need a major crisis.
	You need people to be absolutely desperate before they'll explain that.
	And then there's one added component.
	And again, they've come out of the closet on this.
	They've dropped the mask, to use a contemporary metaphor here.
	They are calling, and Klaus Schwab has done it openly.
	If you look at his speeches on the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which he said are a critical part of the Great Reset, if you read his book on the Fourth Industrial Revolution, they're talking about merging man and machine.
	He gave a speech at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs where he said this is going to be the fusion of our biological bodies and our digital entities, right?
	Man and machine merged into one.
	He talks about putting microchips in your brain that will be able to read and manipulate your thoughts.
	It sounds like terrible science fiction, but this is exactly what the globalist front man pushing the Great Reset, Klaus Schwab, head of the World Economic Forum, is openly saying in his own books.
	So don't take my word for it.
	Go read it.
	And Elon Musk now has said he's looking for volunteers to put brain implants into that are going to be able to read your thoughts.
	That's the direction they're going.
	And this literally means, Mike, if they get away with this, the end of humanity.
	Well, right, because it's the end of the privacy of your own thoughts.
	And the end of human beings as we know it.
	Bill Gates is now promoting genetic engineering.
	Speaking of the Council on Foreign Relations, he published an article in 2018 in their mouthpiece called Foreign Affairs.
	It's their magazine.
	Gene editing for good.
	And he touts these wonderful innovations in genetic engineering where we can actually go in and alter the genetic code of a child to recreate the human that they want to create.
	And this is a big part of the vaccine agenda.
	They're talking about mRNA vaccines that have the ability to alter your genetic code, folks.
	They're talking about ending humanity as we have known it.
	But remember when the Human Genome Project was a big deal back during the Clinton administration?
	And the media were all reporting that, oh, really soon now we're going to have the complete map of everything, all the code that makes a human being.
	We're going to know every gene that controls every little physical characteristic in your body, the chemistry, everything.
	And then when they were done with the human genome sequencing, which was a big project, took many years, at the end of it, they said...
	We still haven't found any genes responsible for what grows a finger, innate behavior, psychology, biochemistry.
	We've only found a very tiny number of genes, and they don't explain the human being at all.
	And everybody was freaking out, and then Bill Clinton tried to turn over the intellectual property of the Human Genome Project to corporations, and then there was backlash against that, and he had to say, okay, no, it'll be for humanity.
	But they tried to have corporations patent gene sequences, and actually that went on for some time, you know, with the breast cancer genes, the BRCA genes, and so on, until that was ultimately shot down by the courts.
	But you're right, the globalists have been trying to own and manipulate human beings and ultimately...
	Exterminate human beings through transhumanism.
	I mean, that's what the Genome Project was really about.
	How do we control and then eventually end the current human and create, you know, human 2.0 in our image as globalists?
	And that's what that was all about.
	Yep.
	And the interesting thing now, Mike, is that they're openly saying these things.
	You know, a few years ago, when we tried to explain that this was their agenda, oh, you guys are conspiracy theorists.
	You've been watching too much science fiction.
	Now they're openly telling us that this is where they're going.
	And if you listen to them, they say, hey, we're going to have eternity.
	Consciousness onto a computer.
	We're going to live forever.
	Okay, I've got bad news for them.
	This is not going to end well for anybody who participates in this absolute lunacy.
	Well, you're absolutely right.
	And by the way, we've got to wrap this up in a minute here, but they don't understand what consciousness is.
	They think the brain...
	And actually, if you talk to them, they think consciousness is an emergent property of the computational capabilities of the neural networking brain.
	They don't realize that consciousness is real and that it's divine and that it's connected to God.
	And that's where they go wrong.
	So when they, quote, upload themselves to the machine and then they commit suicide, they're really committing suicide.
	All they have is a copy.
	They have a fake avatar in the machine.
	That's not them.
	They're dead.
	And if they want to die, guess what?
	We can help them with that right now.
	Why wait for the technology?
	If they want to die, come on over.
	This is Texas.
	We'll take care of it for you.
	You're exactly right, Mike.
	I think these people are playing with fire, and a lot of them don't realize.
	They think, hey, we're going to get eternal life.
	We're going to have new capabilities.
	They are playing with fire, and they are going to get burned if they don't cut it out.
	Yep, going to get burned big time.
	All right, any final thoughts before we wrap this up, Alex?
	I just appreciate so much you having me on, Mike.
	It's a real pleasure to spend some time with you.
	Thank you for all the work that you've been doing.
	I've been following your website for many, many years.
	You guys do heroic work in exposing the big pharmaceutical companies, the big technology companies, the vaccines.
	So thank you very much, sir, for what you do.
	Thanks to all the viewers out there.
	And if people want to know more, you know where to find me.
	I'm still on a lot of the social media things.
	I'm on Parler.
	And thank you again, Mike.
	God bless you.
	Well, thank you, Alex.
	And right back at you.
	God bless you and Merry Christmas.
	And hang on after this.
	Just want to give you one piece of intel.
	But LibertySentinel.org is the website, folks.
	Check out Alex's work.
	And also TheNewAmerican.com.
	And that's a website that we have indexed at Censored.News also.
	And we should be adding Liberty Sentinel there.
	I don't think we have it yet, but we'll put that in there for you, Alex.
	But thank you, everybody, for watching.
	Feel free to repost this.
	Even on YouTube, if you want to get banned, go for it.
	You have permission to do so.
	This is Mike Adams here, the founder of Brighteon.com.
	Thank you for watching.
	And listen to this one twice.
	We covered a lot of interesting stuff here.
	You'll go down a lot of rabbit holes on the second listening.
	But thank you everybody.
	And God bless America.
