Time	Text
	All right, welcome folks to the situation update for Thursday, October 27th, 2020.
	Mike Adams here.
	Got a lot of updates for you today about Germany swapping out a wind farm for a coal mine.
	We've got Ben Shapiro now admitting that vaccines are dangerous, finally.
	Let's see.
	We've got civil unrest growing in Germany as well.
	And one in five Americans are now skipping meals and unable to buy groceries because of high inflation.
	Things like that.
	I got an update for you on the supply chain problem affecting satellite phones.
	Got some intel for you on that from our sponsor.
	It's kind of interesting stuff.
	And also there's a molecule from bananas that has been found to block COVID. That's interesting.
	I knew there was a reason why I was eating all those bananas.
	In addition to the fact that I might be half monkey at this point.
	If I've got to get monkey works on, it'd be two monkeys on video talking about the world.
	Yeah, that'd be fun.
	I've got to get monkey back on anyway.
	And also I've got an update for you on the new mana situation.
	Let me just cover that quickly because it won't take too long.
	But it's, you know...
	The whole Numana fiasco from yesterday, you know how the Numana company with their organic family pack, they were using fraudulent labels and marketing that falsely claimed that I was testing their product and that it was tested for heavy metals and pesticides and so on.
	And of course, I covered all that yesterday.
	I was wondering yesterday if their organic certification was real or faked.
	So I reached out to the certifier called CCOF. And fortunately, they did confirm to me that the Numana company does have organic certification for some of its products.
	And Numana says they're going to post some of their organic certs, as they're called.
	So that's good.
	However, I just want to make sure everybody understands that organic doesn't mean really anything about heavy metals or how much of a pesticide is found in a product.
	A lot of people are shocked by that, but in the organic certification process, there's no testing for heavy metals or pesticides or even for GMOs.
	Did you know that?
	So organic only certifies, it's basically a paper audit and it It looks at the inputs that go into something.
	So if you're an organic farm, it's looking at the inputs.
	What did you buy to put into the farm?
	What kind of fertilizers?
	What kind of pest control?
	Where do you get your nitrogen and things like that?
	It's all about the inputs.
	And you can't use synthetic pesticides, of course, or glyphosate, things like that, in organic agriculture.
	If it's an organic product, then all the inputs have to be organic.
	Unless they don't even qualify as organic, such as with, let's say, salt.
	There's no such thing as organic salt.
	For obvious reasons, salt is an inorganic elemental matrix of sodium and chloride, but whatever.
	Anyway, the point is that If you want to know if something has heavy metals in it, you've got to test it way beyond organic, you know, because organic doesn't cover that.
	So the USDA organic program is a step above conventional, but it doesn't cover, again, heavy metals.
	In other words, you could have a certified organic product that still contains high mercury, or you could also have a certified organic product that contains pesticides because of pesticide drift or glyphosate drift.
	Or GMOs even.
	In fact, did you know the non-GMO project allows a certain level of GMOs in something that is labeled I think it's 0.5%, it might be 0.9%, it's under 1%, but there is an allowable level of GMOs in those products.
	So, you know, testing is important to guarantee what you have and what you don't have.
	So, I just want to make sure everybody understands that about organic versus lab tested, because lab tested is a step above organic.
	Anyway, just finishing up the story here on Numana.
	So we had a distributor reach out to us, told us they'd cut off all ties with Numana after reading our story and learning and talking to Numana.
	They just cut off all ties.
	They just had enough.
	They removed all the Numana products from their website and so on.
	But they also asked us to spread this message, which is, please don't hate on the distributors or the retailers.
	Who were just carrying the Numana products because the distributors and retailers were not aware of the label fraud and the marketing fraud and the things that I pointed out yesterday.
	And I said that yesterday too also.
	I said, you know, the distributors don't have this information.
	They were misled just like the consumers were misled.
	So folks, if you're out there, if you bought this from, you know, any retailer or distributor, not direct from Numana, you might have bought it through, you know, an affiliate or some other distributor, you know, don't hate on them, okay?
	Because that's, it's not their fault.
	It's not their fault.
	This is the responsibility of the manufacturer, which is Numana, and you should direct your complaints to Numana, but also, you know, be chill about it.
	I mean, Don't get all crazy.
	We don't want anybody to get out of hand, you know, crazy, violent, threatening, nothing like that.
	We never advocate that.
	You know, just be cool.
	Just be factual.
	Like, look, you know, you lied.
	You got to refund the money.
	That's it.
	Matter of fact.
	So anyway, that's where that story is at the moment.
	And finally, if you want to reach us, if you've got, maybe if you're a distributor, For Numana or your customer who's had an interaction with them that you think we need to know about, you can email us at the following whistleblower email address, kind of like a Project Veritas kind of thing, foodwhistlebloweratproton.me, as in proton.me.
	That's the address, foodwhistlebloweratproton.me.
	And we've had quite a few listeners email us about all kinds of other things, too, which is fine.
	People are using it as a general contact thing.
	We've got emails about chemtrails and all kinds of stuff.
	So anyway, that's the email address to check out.
	Now, there was one question that came up.
	Well, actually, two.
	So the first question was, Was, you know, why did we wait so long to do this?
	And what I forgot to tell you yesterday is that, you know, actually, I didn't see I thought they had removed all our labels.
	I mean, all our badges and everything from their labels.
	And then I just learned a few days ago that they still had not.
	That's what's crazy about this and that's actually what led to this.
	It was like, really?
	After five years plus and promising you would remove these and not use our name and not use my endorsement and not use these symbols which is our artwork, you're still using it?
	I just learned about that.
	And so that's when I said, you know, it's enough.
	We've got to go public and the customers have to know.
	And that's been my motivation here is to protect the interests of the consumer.
	You notice we're not asking for any money from Numana.
	I have no interest in any money from them.
	We just want you, the consumer, to be treated right.
	We want people to get their money back.
	If they were misled, and we want the company to do the right thing.
	Okay, so that's all that that is about.
	And the second question people had is, they were wondering, do I have this kind of royalty arrangement with any other company?
	You know, any other manufacturer of food or supplements or anything?
	And the answer is no.
	Actually, that was the only one we ever did, and it went bad.
	So it's like, we never did that again.
	So no.
	Okay.
	We just do everything in-house now because we learn we can't trust a lot of third-party, quote, partners.
	Just can't trust them because they'll take advantage of you.
	They'll use your name and use your reputation and make money off of your name and then stab you in the back.
	So we learn not to do that.
	So we don't do that with anybody.
	We don't.
	And by the way, here on the podcast, when I recommend other people's products, I will tell you.
	I will always tell you whether they are a sponsor or not a sponsor.
	So, well, let me give you an example.
	So there's a product I interviewed, Christopher, about this, and it's called IGF-1.
	IGF-1.
	And they're not a sponsor.
	They've never paid me anything, but they've given me some free samples for evaluation.
	And I enjoy their product.
	It's deer antler velvet, basically, with all the right molecules to support your hormones, both for men and women.
	The website for that is getIGF.com.
	And I say that just because I think this is something that people need to know about.
	No compensation.
	The only thing I got, again, is the free evaluation bottle.
	And they don't pay me anything.
	I don't want anything.
	No affiliate.
	Nothing, right?
	So I will always let you know who's a sponsor and who's not a sponsor.
	And so, you know, like the seed kit company, hhseeds.com, which stands for Heaven's Harvest, right?
	hhseeds.com.
	They're our sponsor for the seed kits this month.
	Great.
	You know, discount code Ranger.
	Gets you free shipping there, I think.
	You know the other sponsors I mentioned, like the firearms company and the knives, you know, Dawson knives and The ballistic body armor company, Hoplite Armor, as they're known.
	And, you know, satellite phone store and so on.
	I always tell you who's a sponsor and who's not.
	And the reason this is critical for everybody to do in this space is because, you know, trust and reputation is very difficult to earn and it's very easy to lose.
	Very easy to lose.
	Because you can lose your reputation in one day.
	By screwing your customers or screwing your listeners...
	Sorry if I'm using the term like that.
	I mean, betraying.
	By betraying your customers or consumers, you can lose all that trust in one day.
	And as evidence of this...
	Look at the reaction to the news about Numana, for example.
	How many people have changed their view of Numana based on what they learned from our reporting of that situation?
	You know, so reputation is hard to earn.
	It can take years to build a reputation and it can be lost very easily.
	So anybody who has any sense at all is going to really treasure the relationship that they have with their viewers and listeners as I do because we have something very special here which is a kind of trust, a kind of relationship, personal authenticity.
	And the more you listen, the more you know who I am as a person.
	I've had people sit down with me Who I've never met before and they're like, oh, I know you.
	And they just start talking and they do know me because they've been listening here for a year, two years or five years sometimes.
	They absolutely know me.
	They bring up stuff I forgot I even mentioned.
	I'm like, oh my God, I said that publicly?
	I can't believe it.
	That must have been really late at night, that one.
	Can't believe you knew that.
	Because, you know, I have loose lips the longer this thing goes on.
	So, That relationship is incredibly important.
	And I honor that relationship.
	I honor that trust with you.
	And I will never betray you or deceive you.
	I will tell you the status of everything, you know, including sponsors or non-sponsors or whatever.
	And notably, we've never had a recall of any of our products.
	But that will probably happen one day.
	It's kind of inevitable.
	There'll probably be some issue someday and we have to issue a recall.
	If so, we would issue it immediately.
	We would not delay.
	We would not hesitate.
	We would do the right thing immediately and take the hit because that relationship with the customer is so critical and so important that we place that above everything else.
	So I just want you to understand that.
	Now, there's someone out there who is losing his fortune right now.
	Which also demonstrates how quickly things can turn in your life.
	And his former name was Kanye West.
	And, of course, his new name is Ye as he goes by.
	And he's been in the news a lot.
	And you know how Prince changed his name.
	Remember the musician Prince back in the 1980s?
	You know, Little Red Corvette in that song?
	Purple Rain, right?
	You know.
	Yeah, you used to sing that too when you were in high school.
	I get it.
	We all thought Prince was tall back then too, and it turns out that's not at all the case.
	But Prince, he changed his name to be some symbol, and the symbol was Printed in magazines and things like the artist formerly known as Prince.
	So when it comes to Kanye, you got to use Ye, which stands for the rapper formerly known as a black man who had billions of dollars.
	Because now that's gone.
	His net worth dropped by $1.6 billion overnight when Adidas cut him off from their apparel deal.
	Now, think about this.
	So Kanye, I'm just going to call him Kanye because that's easier at this point.
	Kanye had a deal with Adidas that was so large that it was 8% of Adidas sales and that the net worth valuation to Kanye's finances just for the existence of that deal was $1.6 billion.
	That's crazy.
	Like, that's a lot of hoodies and tennis shoes and whatever people are buying that's got, what is it, the Wheezy brand or whatever it is?
	Was that the brand name that it was?
	And who's buying this stuff?
	Well, apparently lots of people, and they're paying top dollar.
	It's extremely lucrative.
	That's crazy.
	I had no idea there was that much money in it.
	Well, All it took was Kanye just saying that one thing.
	Well, maybe it was two things.
	You know, the thing he said that he's going to go, quote, death con three, I think, on, I guess, Jewish people is what he said, I believe, or something like that.
	He said that, and then he said that he could say anti-Semitic stuff, and Adidas couldn't cancel him.
	Well...
	Turns out he was wrong.
	Turns out Adidas did cancel him.
	And now his net worth has dropped to $400 million.
	Which, admittedly, that's a lot.
	But, you know, if you lose 80% of your net worth in one day, you have miscalculated.
	You have miscalculated the power of playing Adidas.
	The black card, I think, in this case.
	Or the wrapper card.
	If this were some kind of tabletop card game, and you were wondering, hey, the black card there, that looks really powerful.
	That's got a lot of power.
	And what about this card over here?
	Oh, that's the Jewish card.
	Oh, wow, that looks powerful, too.
	Which one wins?
	Does the black card win, or does the Jewish card win?
	Or does the wrapper card win?
	Which one wins?
	Turns out the Jewish card wins.
	The Jewish card beats all other cards.
	The black card just got nullified by the Jewish card, which is wild.
	I mean, I'm just trying to keep track and keep score of the entire social hierarchy, you know, because we're all trying to navigate this and figure out how to not be clobbered and canceled and, you know, end up homeless and broke and whatever.
	And I thought the black card had a lot of power until just now.
	I thought, you know, Kanye, man.
	And Kanye showed up at the Skechers headquarters in L.A. unannounced.
	And Skechers makes tennis shoes, in case you didn't know.
	So there's Adidas that canceled him.
	So Kanye goes to Skechers unannounced.
	Like, hi, you know, I'm Kanye and just showing up.
	Let's talk about shoes and billions or whatever.
	And they escorted him off the property.
	And they issued a press announcement that said, we have nothing to do with Kanye.
	He showed up unannounced.
	We don't want him here.
	And like, whoa, they said that about a black man.
	You understand?
	You understand that the black card just got demolished by the Jewish card.
	I mean, every corporation in America is now saying to themselves, well, doesn't matter if he's black.
	Well, what about Black Lives Matter?
	You know, what about Black Privilege?
	Well, okay, then also Kanye wore that shirt that said White Lives Matter.
	I don't know how much that plays into this.
	Frankly, I thought that was a brilliant move on his part.
	I think, wouldn't it be awesome if we had Black people wearing White Lives Matter, and then we had White people wearing Black Lives Matter, and they could all, like, hold hands on stage and sing, like, Hallelujah together?
	And then a couple people on the end, All Lives Matter.
	It's like...
	You know, kind of cross-ethnicity, lives matter type of moment of harmony, right?
	Like, I think that would be great.
	It's actually kind of a moment of peace and brotherhood, you know?
	If everybody's lives matter, because everybody's lives do matter.
	Especially, you know, the lives of the unborn matter also.
	Especially black unborn babies' lives matter, because they're being exterminated.
	And Kanye was correct about that, by the way.
	But, you know, back to the main point, Kanye now, he's like, he has reached Alex Jones' level, where he shows up and they kick him out.
	They're kicking out a black man.
	That's crazy.
	I mean, I did not realize we had reached that threshold in society.
	So, as I'm trying to navigate this, of course, we all know that in society today, so the white card is the weakest card, right?
	So the black card beats the white card, that's for sure.
	The person of color gets hired, gets the scholarship, whatever.
	But the Jewish card beats the black card now.
	What beats the Jewish card?
	So, in order to find out the answer to this, we have to have a prominent Jew criticize a trans person and see what happens.
	Yeah, because we've got to find out the Jewish card versus the trans card, which one has more ultimate power in society today.
	So let's find a prominent Jew who just wants to go out and say something like, trans people are demons or whatever, and see if they get canceled.
	So who would that be?
	Which Jewish person would be courageous enough to determine the ranking of the Jewish card versus the trans card?
	And I don't mean to make light like this as a game, but in essence, it kind of is.
	It's this weird hierarchy where...
	Certain people are totally off-limits, like, of course, you can't criticize Jewish people or trans people or black people, but you can totally criticize white people all throughout TV shows and sitcoms and advertising.
	It's like, oh, look at this stupid, useless white man!
	It's so funny, you know?
	And, like, that's okay somehow.
	But if you replace the word white with the word, like, trans or something, now it's the worst crime of the century!
	You know?
	So...
	The scoring system is very dynamic, and scores also aggregate.
	So if you are black and trans, I think that's a bonus score right there.
	Or what if you're Jewish and trans or Jewish and black?
	Did Kanye claim that black people are the original Jews?
	I think he said that, and I think there was some mainstream criticism That he was pushing a conspiracy theory that black people were the original Jews or something like that.
	So I don't know how to unravel that whole thing, but it's interesting that he's black and claiming to be the original Jewish person or culture.
	Mm-hmm.
	But apparently nobody bought that because he was defeated by the Jewish card.
	So I guess everybody has to agree on what the cards are worth when you're playing the social acceptance game these days.
	But one final note on this is what I've learned is the gay card now has lost a lot of value.
	There's been major depreciation in the gay card.
	Because gay used to be your ticket.
	You know, like, oh, I'm gay, you gotta hire me.
	You know, I'm part of LGBT, let's say, right?
	You know, gays and bisexuals, lesbians, you know, well, LGB, right?
	It was like, that was a shoo-in.
	Not anymore.
	So, if you're gay, but you're white, it's almost like the white card is a penalty, right?
	Like the whiteness takes away from any remaining power of the gayness.
	So if you're white and gay, kind of a zero right there.
	They net out.
	Gay might be plus one.
	White is minus one.
	You...
	You're basically a zero at that point.
	Gay, white, male, nah.
	Not even accepted anymore, which is why you have gays against groomers.
	Right?
	You have the LGB without the T. That's who they are.
	Gays against groomers.
	They're like, we're gay, but we don't agree with all this grooming pedophilia stuff, you know?
	So then they get penalized and they get banished and blocked and censored and everything because the gayness doesn't overpower The trans card.
	The trans card.
	The trans card is the all-powerful Eye of Sauron card, right?
	Beats everything.
	Doesn't matter how gay you are, or how black you are, frankly, or even how much of a lesbian you are.
	I mean, Rosie O'Donnell can't even beat the trans card, or the Jewish card.
	Either one.
	She would be defeated by both.
	Now, last point on this, and I'll move on, but there's also the woman card.
	Now, the woman card used to have a lot of power.
	The woman card, you know, it really rocked through the 1980s, 1990s, and so on.
	Until recently, actually, it was great to play the woman card.
	I'm a woman, you know, hear me roar, right?
	Or I am woman, hear me roar.
	Moms are so appreciated in society by people who know Because, you know, moms give birth and bring you into the world and take care of you and all these things.
	And moms have a special role in society, the nurturing of society, the continuation of civilization.
	You know, while dads are out there, you know, hunting pigeons with slingshots or whatever, moms are, you know, feeding the kids.
	Moms have a special place.
	Of course, so do dads in their own way, but I'm talking about women here now.
	The women card, or the woman card, was very powerful.
	But not anymore.
	Because the woman card has now been condemned by the trans card.
	The trans card, or the trans players, say, you can't claim to be a woman because there's no such thing as a woman.
	Therefore, the woman card now has no value.
	So, it was like, 10 years ago, it was like, woman!
	And today, it's like, woman!
	What, you think?
	Really?
	You think you're a woman?
	Like that.
	Okay?
	Ten years ago, it was like, woman!
	Yay!
	Let's hire women!
	Let's bring in women!
	Let's celebrate women!
	Today, it's like, you don't even count.
	How dare you even think that you're a woman?
	Like that.
	It's crazy.
	So, the women are starting to wake up And realize that the trans card is dangerous to society.
	And I'm wondering now if many black Americans are realizing how dangerous the trans card is as well.
	Because if Kanye can be canceled by the Jewish card, he can certainly be canceled by the trans card.
	And in that kind of society where no one can ever condemn someone who is trans, you end up with an administration in Washington, D.C., staffed by nothing but transgenders, which kind of resembles the Biden administration, come to think which kind of resembles the Biden administration, come to think of it, right?
	People who think that they're the opposite gender of what they really are.
	In other words, delusional, mentally ill people who are cross-dressers and they want to have power over you and they're going to use the trans cards.
	So a message to Jewish people is be careful how you wield the Jewish card power because there's always another power that can come in that's stronger than you and right now that's the trans card.
	So be careful.
	If you de-platform people for wrong think, because that wrong think formula can be applied against you, too, even if you're a Jew, you see.
	That's right.
	This is, you know, some Jewish people are about to find this out, probably.
	They get canceled for criticizing trans or criticizing pedophiles even.
	What about the pedo card?
	That might be like the ultimate card coming in soon.
	That's what they're trying to push.
	They're trying to say that that's all okay.
	You know, grooming is good and all this stuff.
	So the pedo card might be the ultimate, like from this game point of view, the god card, which is crazy because it's actually satanic, obviously.
	But they would call it like the god card, the all-powerful, all-seeing card that beats everything.
	It's the pedos, you know?
	Which just tells you how twisted our society is.
	That if you rape and molest children, that you have the ultimate freedom of speech, but no one can criticize you, and you are always hired first, and you always get the scholarships first, and you always get the raises first.
	You move up in government by being a pedophile.
	And then you realize, huh, that's kind of what the situation is, thanks to Jeffrey Epstein.
	It's like, the pedos are running everything.
	Already!
	Like, that system's not even fiction.
	It's here now.
	It's the pedo god card.
	You know, in the name of Satan, obviously.
	But how crazy is that?
	It's the pedos running everything.
	A lot of them are pedos.
	But in summary, the way this is going for Kanye and perhaps other wealthy black men, well, Kanye will soon find himself probably as an affiliate for Mike Lindell's MyPillow.com.
	Use discount code YAY for 60% off the Squeezy Wheezy pillow from...
	From yay brands.
	No, I'm not criticizing MyPillow at all.
	It's just that there's a lot of affiliates, obviously, in independent media that have a MyPillow discount code, which is great.
	I mean, it's fine.
	Mike Lindell is doing amazing work.
	It's just that wouldn't it be funny if Kanye, his fortune comes down to, well, I'm an affiliate for MyPillow.com.
	Okay, great.
	Everybody needs pillows.
	Black folks need pillows too, right?
	Maybe that'll be the marketing slogan, right?
	Everybody's got to sleep sooner or later.
	So anyway, we're having fun with all this, folks.
	Don't take all this too seriously.
	See, one of the things I do is I exercise freedom of speech and some attempts at comedy and poking fun at the whole system.
	It's harmless.
	It's satire.
	Don't get too uptight over it.
	I will invite Kanye on to an interview if he wants to do that.
	We'll see how many more millions he has to lose before he comes on to this podcast.
	He's like, hi, I'm Ye.
	Here's my Patreon site.
	If you want 20 bucks a month, then you'll get extra bonus interviews about how I'm being deplatformed everywhere.
	Something like that.
	That may be where this goes.
	Alright, moving into more...
	Serious things, actually.
	Modified banana lectin effectively inhibits COVID. This is from the Epoch Times.
	And it's a story about researchers from HKU, which is Hong Kong, the Department of Microbiology School of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine of HKU. Okay, and they found out that if you take these molecules from bananas, and then you modify them somehow, it's not clear, they don't really say how they modify them, at least in this article, and you turn them into something called H84T-Banlec.
	Okay, Banlec.
	I don't know why it's H84T probably talks about the morphology of the molecule.
	Anyway, this thing...
	Originally derived from bananas is massively antiviral against COVID and it blocks COVID, they say, from attaching to cells in mice.
	Okay, so there you go.
	There's a banana molecule that they want to turn into an antiviral drug that blocks the influenza virus also in addition to COVID and they want to make it intranasal.
	So you know what that means, right?
	It means you snort it, right?
	So continuing with my jokes from the other day, you know, I had a little sore throat for a couple of days, and I was spraying my throat with this xylitol from this company called Xclear or X-L-E-A-R. Again, not a sponsor, but they have a great little xylitol thing that you can spray up your nose.
	And I put some iodine drops in that, and it works great.
	Well, now...
	You're going to be able to snort bananas to stop COVID. Can you believe that?
	Snorting bananas.
	This is going to get interesting.
	I was like, yeah, the grocery store buying all those bananas.
	Are you going to eat all those?
	Nope.
	Them bananas is for snorting.
	You know, to kill COVID. Just imagine those conversations at the grocery store.
	Crazy times, folks.
	Crazy times.
	But, hey, all the best medicines are found in Mother Nature.
	That's true.
	Isn't it funny how these drug companies work, too?
	You know, they run around the grocery store buying fruits and vegetables.
	Like, what can we extract from this and turn it into a drug and sell it to people at, you know, 1 million percent markup and not tell them where it came from?
	When you could just buy bananas for a few cents a pound, you know, and just eat bananas.
	You know, banana peels.
	They work on all kinds of like skin conditions and things.
	You know, you can rub banana peels on moles and things like that.
	And apparently they help get rid of, I don't know what it is, like moles and some skin conditions and things.
	I don't know.
	It's one of the home remedies.
	It's out there like baking soda and banana peels and aloe vera and stuff like that.
	So there's...
	There's a lot that you can do with just having the plants.
	But no, the drug companies always want to turn it into some kind of a drug and then charge you so much more.
	Now, moving over to Germany.
	Germany is dismantling a wind farm in order to build a coal mine.
	How crazy is that?
	Let's see.
	The energy giant RWE has already begun a process of closing down a wind farm close to the German coal mine of Garsweiler.
	And they're going to mine lignite or brown coal out of that because coal works and wind farms don't.
	So it turns out that three of the lignite fired coal plants in Germany that have been put kind of mothballed to put into standby mode are going to come back online.
	I wonder why that, you know, could it have something to do with Nord Stream pipelines getting all blown up and Russia not shipping gas?
	Yeah.
	So let's see.
	It's going to be bring online 300 megawatts of electricity by burning coal.
	Now, what happened to the Greenies?
	What happened to the Greenies?
	Are the Greenies going to protest this?
	Because I'm pretty sure this is a fossil fuel, right?
	Coal.
	And this brings us to a key principle of wind farms versus coal-fired power plants.
	So wind farms, of course, only generate electricity in proportion to how much wind is blowing.
	You don't have much wind.
	You don't have much electricity, right?
	Wind blows faster.
	You get more, to a point.
	Well, that's not very good when you're trying to meet peak demand on your power grid.
	You know, when people are charging all their electric cars and things like that and using space heaters, right?
	So coal, what's awesome about coal is that if you consider you're shoveling coal into a giant burner, which is not exactly how it works, but this is a simplified example.
	If there's more electricity demand, you can just shovel more coal in there, right?
	You can have a giant pile of coal.
	And they do.
	You can have a little mountain of coal, and that is energy potential.
	Actually, a mountain of coal is kind of like a giant battery, if you think about it.
	It's a giant black battery.
	And you need more energy, you shovel more coal in there.
	And you get more juice right now when it's needed, because electricity is produced and consumed in a millisecond or a microsecond.
	I guess it depends on how far it goes, but you get the idea.
	Let's just call it a millisecond, okay?
	Electricity is made and consumed in a fraction of a second.
	So as it's needed, you've got to make it now.
	You can't wait around for the wind to blow.
	When's the wind going to blow?
	I don't know.
	But, you know, too bad there's no electricity and the wind's not blowing.
	Hence the advantage of coal.
	Because, you know, you can't stockpile wind, it turns out.
	You can't just have a pile of wind somewhere and then unleash the wind when you need it.
	But you can do that with coal.
	Pretty cool.
	Now let's move into the realm of, oh, you finally got it.
	And then we'll talk about some satellite supply chain stuff here in a second.
	Ben Shapiro.
	Is now admitting that vaccines are not safe and effective after all this time.
	So from Blaze Media, after advocating for COVID-19 vaccination for over a year, Ben Shapiro now says he was deceived.
	Quote, we were lied to by everyone.
	Oh, really?
	What drew you to that conclusion?
	Finally.
	Because Ben Shapiro has been promoting the COVID-19 mRNA injections.
	But now on his show, this was on Tuesday on the Ben Shapiro show, he said, quote, it is now perfectly clear that we were lied to.
	And we were lied to at a very high level and from very, very early on by both the vaccine companies in terms of the ability of the vaccine to prevent transmission and by our politicians who apparently knew better.
	So, in effect, he's only saying that they don't prevent transmission.
	They don't prevent the pandemic.
	And I guess he's not even really saying here that they're dangerous.
	So, I would just say, hey, Ben Shapiro, you got a lot more levels of waking up to do.
	So, let's talk about those levels here for a second.
	So, level one is, oh, yeah, they don't stop transmission.
	We've been lied to.
	Great.
	That's where Ben Shapiro is right now.
	Welcome to level one.
	Took you a while, but we welcome you with open arms.
	It's a great first step.
	Level two.
	And they're killing people, by the way.
	That's level two.
	The vaccines are killing people.
	Now, who's there?
	Who's at that level?
	Well, you know, Steve Kirsch gets it, and Ed Dowd gets it, and a bunch of people get it, and Dr.
	Brian Artis gets it, and Dr.
	Jane Ruby, and, you know, Judy Mikovits, and so many others.
	All kinds of names, all kinds of people I've interviewed, they all get it.
	It's a bioweapon.
	It's killing people.
	People are dying.
	That's level two.
	Level three is, and they're dying on purpose.
	In other words, this whole thing was deliberate.
	It was engineered as a depopulation weapon system.
	So one of my questions about Ben Shapiro is, hey, will he make it to level three?
	Or is he going to be stuck at level one because that's the safe place to be right now?
	Safety on level one, oh, it just doesn't stop transmission.
	We'll just hang out here at level one because, you know, it's not that controversial anymore.
	It's always easy to step up to level one when everybody else has already been there, you know, two years ago.
	You know, it's easy to say the obvious thing after the pioneers pointed it out And blaze the trail.
	So Ben Shapiro is doing a great job of following the paths blazed by others.
	Which is not really that impressive, is it?
	Especially for someone who's as intelligent as Ben Shapiro.
	He should have seen this sooner.
	And he should see level 2 and level 3.
	And there's more, by the way.
	He should see, yeah, this is killing people.
	So it's not even safe.
	And then, yes, it's a depopulation bioweapon.
	Level 4...
	Let's call it the...
	She will laugh about this.
	Let's just call it the Karen Kingston level.
	Because I think she's one of the best representations of this.
	Level 4 is...
	Yeah, and there's exotic, crazy technology in that shot.
	It's not even a vaccine.
	It's an operating system.
	I mean, the patents are out there.
	It's obvious what's happening to a lot of people.
	Level 4, man...
	There's way more to this story than just a depopulation weapon.
	There's tech at work.
	This is advanced exotic technology, possibly for remote control, possibly to install operating systems.
	And again, if you haven't heard my interviews with Karen Kingston, you definitely want to do that, especially the most recent one, because she talks about all of this, the cognition activity that Of these nanoscale computational systems that are constructed after people are injected?
	It's wild, but it's not science fiction.
	It's patented science fact.
	She's got the patents.
	So there's a lot of people at level one who are like, there's no way I'm going to go to level four.
	Or even people at level two who Yeah, it's dangerous.
	People are dying, but there's no way they're going to go to level 3.
	No, it couldn't be on purpose.
	This all must be a horrible accident.
	It's just accidental.
	Why would they want to kill people?
	And there's a lot of level 3 people that don't want to go to level 4.
	It couldn't be tech.
	There couldn't be little robots.
	Really?
	Well, why do all the patents describe them in the vaccines on the company's websites like Moderna?
	And you know what level 5 is, by the way?
	Oh, and Brian Artis also is at level 4.
	And we're going to have Dr.
	Artis back on.
	I'm going to reach out to him for that, for the venom theory or venom peptides theory, which has not gone away.
	And I think you need to hear an update on the venom peptides that appear to have been engineered into this kind of alongside the tech, okay?
	So that's all in the level 4 category.
	Level 5, if you're wondering, what's level 5?
	What could that be?
	Level 5 gets into the architect of this whole thing, of all the levels.
	Level 5 is the, shall we say, non-human AI system that some people say is Satan.
	Yeah, some people talk about how the very concept of Satan is actually this dark AI supercomputer system that has control over humanity and that has laid out the roadmap for transhumanism by injecting people with upgradable operating system nanoscale computational systems under cover of a vaccine.
	Yeah, that's level five.
	I'm going to have a guest on to talk about Level 5.
	We're trying to reschedule with Todd Callender also, who talks about, I think, some of that.
	It's certainly Level 4 stuff as well.
	So we've got some guests coming on who are going to get into those areas.
	But what I find interesting, not only do we have people like Ben Shapiro, who's like, I'm going to hang out here where it's safe on Step 1.
	Great.
	Okay, that's not impressive.
	There are a lot of conventional virologists who will not look at the tech side of this, like the nanoscale computational systems.
	They just won't look at it, which is okay.
	I mean, their expertise is in virology, and I get it.
	And it's hard to believe that so-called science fiction has become science fact fiction.
	And it's hard.
	Frankly, I didn't believe it until I saw the patents, okay?
	Like two years ago, people were talking to me about quantum dots and hydrogel and, I don't know, like Charles Lieber, like nanoscale wires and stuff.
	And I thought, are you kidding me?
	How could that be?
	And then I read all of Charles Lieber's patents and Or at least 20-something of them.
	And then I met Karen Kingston through the interviews, and she's been just laying out all of the patents ever since, just blowing everybody's minds about that.
	And I realized I can't dismiss this.
	So yeah, I mean, it took me time to step up to these steps as well.
	And there were other people who were way higher on the steps than I was.
	So I guess I can't complain.
	We'll welcome everybody to progress along the steps as they are ready.
	But some people will not even take the first step.
	Some people are still just on ground, like the ground floor.
	Zero step.
	They're there thinking that, you know, I am grateful to the vaccine manufacturers for the safety that the vaccines have provided, whatever, while they're getting sick from COVID all the time.
	Those people?
	Forgot that statement.
	They always have the same statement.
	I'm so grateful for the protection of the vaccine while they're, you know, diagnosed with COVID for the sixth time or something.
	Those people aren't even on step one.
	And, you know, the life expectancy of those people is not looking good right now.
	No.
	All right, let me give you some hard intel here about the supply chain for the comms industry, satellite phones.
	And this segment is actually, was literally brought to me and you by the Satellite Phone Store, which is the sponsor for this segment.
	Oh, and their website, of course, sat123.com.
	So here's what I learned from the Satellite Phone Store today.
	There are only 6,000 sat phones being made and delivered this year, for the end of this year.
	That's it.
	Only 6,000 more satellite phones, which maybe sounds like a lot, but it's not, because that's the entire nationwide supply from a company called Inmarsat.
	And InMarsat has the more affordable phones versus the Iridium phones.
	And the InMarsat phones is what the satellite phone store has available.
	And they're really great.
	They work great.
	I've got one of those.
	I've also got one of the Iridiums.
	We've got one of each.
	They both work very well.
	Some have, you know, different features and so on, but they both work great.
	So there will be, after these 6,000 phones...
	Which will go quickly.
	There will be no InMarsat phones essentially for at least the first half of 2023 because the InMarsat company is moving their factory.
	They're moving their factory.
	And they are saying publicly that they won't be back up and running until about July of 2023.
	So that's more than six months or let's call it half a year offline.
	No production.
	Now, have you ever moved a factory?
	Have you ever done that?
	Because it's a crazy endeavor.
	And it always takes longer than you think.
	Can they move their factory in six months and get it back up and running?
	Will the supply chain work at that time?
	I don't know.
	I hope so.
	I mean, I think they're a great company.
	They've got good products.
	They're helping a lot of people stay in touch.
	But things go wrong when you're moving factories, especially right now when there's a supply chain problem.
	And you're relying on parts from Europe, and Europe's power system isn't looking good.
	And electricity prices are through the roof, and all the metals smelting is shut down, and there's a global chip shortage of microchips and so on.
	There's plenty of chips in these phones.
	So if they get back online in July of 2023, that'll be great.
	And then they'll start making phones again.
	If they don't get back online...
	Everybody's just going to have to wait.
	The world's going to have to wait.
	There's no more phones coming from that company until the new factory gets back online.
	So let's hope that goes well for them.
	Now for the Iridium phones, which uses a different satellite network, it's the low-Earth orbit satellites that move relative to the ground position.
	And they're flying by in the sky.
	For Iridium, there are no phones available right now through the satellite phone store.
	I don't think you can find them anywhere.
	I'm not sure what the supply is going to be in 2023, but I know that prices are going up in 2023 for the phones and also for the service plans.
	So service plans are going to go up both for Iridium and Inmarsat.
	and one thing that the satellite phone store is offering is that you can be grandfathered in at the current price as long as you sign up before the prices go up.
	So they will hold you at the current price level, and remember your satellite minutes roll over so you can accumulate them.
	You can use them in an emergency like Hurricane Ian, but you'll be held at the current price essentially forever until you one day cancel the account.
	And there's some people that have phones.
	They've been paying much lower monthly fees from years ago, and they're still grandfathered in at those lower fees.
	So that's something to consider.
	Satellite Phone Store, they are a sponsor for this segment, sat123.com.
	The supply chain situation for the sat phones is going to get pretty dicey.
	But they do have phones right now.
	That's good to know.
	Alright, a different story here from the Epoch Times.
	The Clorox Company, which makes the Pine Sol products, recalls several Pine Sol cleaning products due to, get this, risk of exposure to bacteria.
	I thought Pine Sol killed bacteria.
	So wait a second.
	Wait a second.
	They're saying that if you use their products...
	You may be exposed to bacteria.
	So, all the following are being recalled.
	The Pine Sol Scented Multi-Surface Cleaners, and the Clorox Pro Pine Sol All-Purpose Cleaners, Clorox Professional Pine Sol Lemon Fresh Cleaners, and so on and so forth.
	And I'm thinking, man, if these don't kill bacteria, why am I using them?
	And, you know, personally, I don't use any of these because I can't stand the toxic fragrance that's in these products, but a lot of people do use them.
	So the Clorox company says, quote, consumers should immediately stop using the products, should take pictures of the UPC code, dispose of the products in its container with household trash, just like chuck it in the garbage, and contact Pine Sol for a full refund of the purchase price with receipt or of the manufacturer's suggested retail price if you don't have a receipt.
	So, kind of interesting that Pine Sol or the Clorox company is doing the right thing, right?
	Like, well, you know, we screwed up.
	Don't use the product.
	We give you a refund.
	Because, you know, that's the right thing to do if you have a product that isn't what it's supposed to be.
	You're supposed to refund customers.
	Wink, wink.
	Because we've been talking about another company that's in the same, kind of a similar boat.
	But not that there's bacteria in their product, but you know what I'm talking about.
	So, folks, if you own a company and you've been selling something that isn't what it's supposed to be, you should refund your customers.
	End of story.
	So anyway, they give out a phone number that people can call to request a refund, and they say you'll get a check in four to six weeks.
	Okay.
	The recalled products may contain bacteria, says the warning, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an environmental organism found widely in soil and water.
	People with weakened immune systems or external medical devices who are exposed to To this pseudomonas, whatever this is, face a risk of serious infection that may require medical treatment.
	So in other words, this pine salt product could be almost as dangerous as going to the hospital and having like a colonoscopy or something or just seeing a doctor who's already infected with MRSA or C.diff or other superbugs in the hospital.
	Frankly, you know, I'll take my chances.
	How about that?
	But I'm not buying this stuff anyway.
	And if I have a problem with bacteria, you know, I've got chlorine dioxide.
	In fact, I've got chlorine dioxide, which is why I don't need overpriced fragrance-loaded pine salt products.
	If I want to clean something, I make chlorine dioxide, you know, five drops of this and five drops of that, make a solution, put it in a spray bottle, boom, spray the surface.
	You're making your own, you know, disinfectant for pennies, pennies.
	Why do people spend so much money on overpriced pine salt products?
	Which is just like food coloring in there and some fragrance.
	People think, oh, if it's a cleaner, it's got to look blue.
	It's got to be green.
	No, it doesn't.
	That's just BS, frankly.
	It's got to smell a certain way.
	No, it doesn't.
	Not to kill bacteria.
	It doesn't have to smell a certain way.
	People, you know, it's one of the key indicators of IQ is whether you waste all kinds of money on overpriced, you know, Clorox products or Procter& Gamble products and things, all these cleaning products.
	You don't need all that stuff.
	You just need some basic soap, you know, some chlorine dioxide, some cheap bleach, you know, maybe some ammonia if you're doing windows or whatever.
	You can...
	You can make your own window cleaner.
	You know, just combine some stuff with it, like isopropyl alcohol and water is pretty much most of that formula.
	Maybe a little bit of ammonia in it as well, you know?
	You can make your own products for pennies.
	And you know, frankly, the name Pine Salt is funny because it doesn't even contain anything from pine needles or pine trees.
	Even though that's the origin of the product, that's been long gone.
	But if you want to make your own shikimic acid extract, you can use pine needles.
	You can make pine needle tea, which also contains vitamin C, by the way.
	And pine needle tea, we've talked about this before, contains all kinds of shikimic acid, which is the raw molecule that's used by the Roche company to make Tamiflu drug, which is the anti-pandemic drug, right?
	My only warning on that, since I've said all that, is make sure you're using the right kind of trees and understand there is a ton of shikimic acid in pine needles if it's the right kind.
	Like in Central Texas, we have these loblolly pines, and we've tested those, and it's like off the charts with shikimic acid.
	It's crazy.
	Off the charts.
	In our lab, we're doing mass spec, well, chromatography and mass spec, and we're seeing shikimic acid in huge quantities.
	It's pretty wild.
	Oh, hey, there's another update for you on the lab.
	I had a breakthrough today.
	We were able to see incurred atrazine in cashews.
	So, you know, atrazine is the chemical castrator.
	It's the number two herbicide that's used in agriculture in America.
	And, you know, for men, it makes your scrotum shrivel.
	It's a chemical castrator.
	It turns you into, like, sissy men.
	Well, this chemical, I mean, it's number two right after glyphosate, okay?
	So glyphosate is the top herbicide, and then it's atrazine.
	Well, we've been working on the atrazine method because we're about to add atrazine testing to our entire laboratory analysis of all our products, right?
	We already test for glyphosate.
	So we're about to add atrazine.
	And atrazine is a difficult molecule to quantitate with Well, fatty acids, you know, oils, things like that.
	So finding atrazine in vegetables is easy.
	Finding atrazine in nuts is very difficult.
	But we nailed it today.
	It's a totally different method of extraction when you have, you know, essentially oils, cashews, you know, fats.
	But we nailed that today.
	We've got atrazine.
	We've got a really great, very linear calibration curve of atrazine with cashews.
	And that's incurred in cashews.
	So we went to the store and bought cashews, and we're seeing the atrazine in those cashews, which is really cool.
	And we also saw atrazine in pineapples.
	I mentioned that the other day.
	But again, that was easy, where cashews is a lot more difficult.
	So the upshot of that, by the way, and this is the truth, is that there are like, you know, like sissy man, you know, girly chemicals in the food supply, you know, just to put it in layman's terms.
	It's true.
	It's true.
	There are chemical castrators in the food supply.
	There are infertility chemicals in the food supply.
	It's been in there for a long, long time, folks.
	All kinds of things to reduce human population growth.
	In fact, someone was telling me earlier today that it's time to reread the Paul Ehrlich book, What is it, like the 1960s or 70s?
	I think it was called The Population Bomb.
	And it was warning about global overpopulation and what would happen.
	And then that book was used to try to justify all kinds of depopulation, like in the food supply and through vaccines and abortions and everything else.
	And apparently, a whole lot of what that book advocated is being done right now.
	Because we are in the depopulation phase.
	Of human history right now.
	Total, deliberate, global depopulation.
	Vaccines are only one component.
	Mass famine, starvation is also another one.
	Oh, hey, mentioning that, I am scheduled to host the fourth hour of the Infowars show today, the Alex Jones show.
	And that's at infowars.com, and it's at 2 p.m.
	Central.
	And I'm having on, unless the schedule changes, but I'm having David Dubine on to talk about global famine, starvation, and the water vapor that has been thrust into the atmosphere by the Tonga explosion, the volcano explosion, and how this is affecting global temperatures and shortening the crop seasons.
	So, and the reason I know all that is because I've already interviewed him at a longer interview about all that, and that longer interview is going to come out in the next couple of days.
	But if you want to catch me on Infowars.com, that's going to be 2 p.m.
	today, live with David Dubine.
	That should be pretty interesting.
	Now that brings us to this story on Breitbart, a survey.
	Nearly one in five Americans skipped meals, didn't buy groceries due to high inflation.
	Wow, this includes 28% of Gen Z and 23% of millennials who didn't buy groceries or, you know, skip some groceries, according to a recent survey.
	And let's see, many of them said they'd stop buying healthier food options.
	Yeah, because the stuff that's bad for you is cheaper.
	The same survey also found that high inflation is forcing Americans to delay certain health care expenses.
	So 14% of Americans have canceled or postponed plans to see a health care specialist.
	10% have delayed taking prescribed medication, which perhaps may not be such a bad idea, but I guess it depends on the medication.
	And 11% stalled receiving a yearly physical.
	And I'm reading it, I'm like, people get a physical every year?
	Wow, that's wild.
	Yeah, I don't need a doctor to tell me that there's something wrong with me every year when I'm eating well, right?
	You take care of your health.
	You don't need an annual physical.
	That's just my opinion.
	But everybody goes in and gets an annual physical anyway.
	Okay.
	Because a lot of people aren't aware of their own bodies.
	Have you noticed that?
	Not even aware.
	And some people, I don't know.
	It's weird.
	People want somebody else to tell them what's going on with their body.
	It's like, hey, you know, you can feel your pulse, right?
	You just put your fingers on your carotid artery, you can feel your pulse, you see what's going on, you can tune in, pay attention.
	You know, it's okay to touch your own muscles and see if anything's sore, anything hurts, you know.
	Some people want to outsource everything about their body to someone else.
	Like, doctor, you know, here.
	I'm like a slab of meat.
	Tell me what's wrong.
	Seriously, just pay attention.
	And you'll know a lot more.
	I'm not saying don't go to the doctor, just to be clear, but yearly physical?
	Are you kidding me?
	You know who needs a yearly physical is Fetterman.
	He does.
	Maybe Oz could just give him a physical next time they're on stage together.
	That would be fun.
	Okay, in the realm of energy supplies in the United States, story from Zero Hedge, major fuel supplier is on code red as diesel crisis hits the southeast.
	Oh, diesel's running out.
	Yeah.
	So remember, the U.S. only has a 25-day supply of diesel remaining, and actually that was a couple of days ago.
	So let's see.
	Mansfield is a diesel distributor in the Southeast.
	Quote, because conditions are rapidly devolving and market economics are changing significantly each day, Mansfield is moving to alert level four.
	I'm wondering, is that like Kanye's DEFCON 3?
	Is that what that is?
	Is Mansfield going to get canceled?
	I'm just wondering.
	All right, Mansfield is moving to alert level four.
	To address market volatility, Mansfield is also moving the southeast to code red.
	Now, I'm getting confused about the mixed metaphors here.
	So we're at alert level 4, which is a numerical indicator of severity, but we're at code red, which is a hue indicator, a color indicator of severity.
	What's the difference between alert level 4 and code red?
	Can they coexist?
	Is it like...
	Code red 4?
	Or is there alert level 5?
	Is there code orange?
	I don't, I mean, it's a little confusing.
	Frankly, they're requesting a 72-hour notice for deliveries to ensure that fuel and freight can be secured at economical levels.
	And they have a fleet of tankers that delivers refined fuel products to 8,000 customers nationwide, at least for the moment.
	They say on the East Coast, diesel prices are 30 to 80 cents higher than the posted market average simply because supply is tight.
	Now, this is fascinating to me because it reminds me of the silver market.
	You know, right now, if you want to buy silver coins, you might say, well, the silver spot price is $19 or $20.
	But then you call up a silver dealer, and let's say you want to buy American Eagles, and they're like, no, that's $35.
	What?
	Why?
	Well, because that's supply and demand.
	Everybody wants the silver.
	So you're going to have to pay this premium above the spot price.
	Well, that's what they're saying about the diesel here.
	The spot price of diesel is X, but what you're going to have to pay is X plus 50 cents, let's say.
	If you want it.
	I mean, if you don't want it, if it's just a theory, like, I wish I had diesel at X price.
	Yeah, you can imagine that all day long.
	But if you actually want diesel molecules delivered into your fuel tanks, you're going to pay 50 cents more or even 80 cents more.
	And this notice from the Mansfield Company says, quote, at times carriers are having to visit multiple terminals to find supply.
	Which means the terminals are running out.
	I mean, they're out, like, empty.
	Comma, which delays deliveries and strains local trucking capacity, I would imagine.
	So, diesel's running out.
	Supplies are gone at certain hubs.
	Or at least gone for some period of time, and then I guess they get replenished when another giant truck arrives.
	But I still don't know what Code Red means in Alert Level 4.
	But I'm pretty sure it's going to DEFCON 5.
	I'm pretty sure it's going to happen.
	Diesel DEFCON 5.

	All right, now we're about to jump into the interview here, but let me tease you with something you're going to want to hear after the interview.
	Oh, and our interview is with Jeffrey Prather.
	So you don't want to miss it.
	I have in my hands, I have a book.
	Well, it is a schedule of kind of like a little accounting book with handwritten entries that I do.
	I have this in my hands.
	And I'm going to read for you some of the entries of this so that you get a sense of what's happening to money since 1955 to today.
	And this book, believe it or not, is from my great-great-grandfather.
	So, this is kind of a family heirloom, you know, a little family history record.
	And I can't wait to read you some of these entries because they're, I mean, some of them are kind of funny, but it's a real education in money and inflation and devaluation of the currency.
	So, we're going to cover that after the interview.
	Let's go to Jeffrey Prather.
	Right here.
	And then see what he's got to say about all kinds of things, Ukraine, elections, things like that.
	And then I'll cover the 1955 accounting book on the other side.
	All right.
	Welcome to today's interview.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighton.com and Brighton.tv.
	And one of our hosts, who the people love and I love, has got amazing analysis and amazing history and experience.
	He knows what's up.
	His name is Jeffrey Prather.
	You've heard of him.
	You've seen his videos.
	And he's going to be joining us today or this evening.
	We're doing this at nighttime, actually.
	He's a former DIA intelligence officer, former DEA special agent army officer as well, and now is a top-notch analyst of what's going on.
	And we're going to cover Ukraine, Russia, dirty bombs, elections, and so much more.
	Mr.
	Prather, it's an honor to have you on.
	I'm a huge fan of you and your work.
	Thank you for joining me.
	Glad to be back with you again, Mike.
	It's a pleasure.
	Say hi to your mom.
	Oh, yeah, absolutely.
	She's a huge fan.
	For the people listening, my mom loves to hear Jeffrey Brayther as well.
	She can't wait for this interview.
	In fact, she'll probably be texting me.
	Don't forget to ask him this and this.
	So we'll see how that goes.
	I gotta check my text during the interview.
	Seriously, let's start with, I think, one of the most urgent issues right now, which you have Shoigu in Russia desperately calling leaders of Western nations and claiming that Ukraine is building a dirty bomb and planning to detonate it as a pretext for NATO escalating the war against Russia.
	I haven't heard your analysis on this yet.
	Do you think that that's actually happening?
	And do you think that Ukrainian forces and perhaps NATO forces are crazy enough to actually detonate a dirty bomb to see what happens?
	Yeah, I do.
	You know, my book, Chase, is about a SATAM, a special atomic demolition munition coming across the southern border brought by terrorists, bought from the Russians.
	And the Russians have those things, too.
	But I think the Ukrainians could be getting those from the Americans.
	And so does Gonzalo Lira and a lot of people.
	So there's two schools of thought on that.
	One is there's a lot of nuclear saber rattling, and then there's going to be a peace deal right before.
	That's the November election surprises, kind of like what Obama was trying to do with Benghazi, which we all know how that ended up, because they don't understand violence and tactics.
	So that's the one school is there's a lot of nuclear saber rattling.
	Then there's the intelligence that's coming out that says the Russians have already intercepted a bomb.
	And again, I assess this as a small nuke.
	And if you set off a small nuke in a city, it's not the end of the world.
	The buildings in cities contain a lot of the radiation.
	Or it may have been set off underground as well.
	A neutron bomb, George Webb, thinks of that as well.
	But I think their plans either way have been upset.
	I assess because the intelligence that the Russians have come out with is so much more accurate than the lies that our own government are putting out.
	The Department of Defense and NATO, because Russia has been very accurate with everything, I assess that they did intercept it, which means they've upset the plans.
	So I don't think there's going to be anything else in Europe.
	I don't think there's going to be anything else in Ukraine.
	And I don't think that there's going to be anything in the United States.
	And part of that is the psyops being put out in California and stuff about, hey, watch out for a nuclear blast and stuff.
	When you say you believe Russia has intercepted this dirty bomb, and I want to revisit, just for our listeners, the definition of a dirty bomb.
	It doesn't have to be nuclear at all.
	It could be just old medical imaging radiation isotopes, like Strontium-91 or something, that they just wrap around a kinetic explosive and set that off.
	And you're right.
	It's not the end of the city.
	It might not even be the end of one building.
	It just makes a mess, like a decontamination mess.
	But if Russia intercepted it, Are you saying that they did so just recently, like in the last two or three days?
	Because it wasn't long ago that Russia was warning that this was about to happen.
	Yes, it could have been in the last two or three days.
	That's intelligence that I am receiving.
	So I don't know whether that is that they intercepted it or that they intercepted it and it went off.
	I'm not sure about that.
	But the important part of that is I think that the American and NATO plans to do something like that have been interdicted and thrown off, along with a lot of other plans that are going on.
	So this plan has been thwarted.
	It's not that...
	So nuclear weapons and MAD, Mutual Assured Destruction, and I've got two bachelors and my master's in international relations, and I was studying the START treaties back in the day.
	That's really not the warfare of fifth generation.
	The genetic warfare, the biodigital weaponry that is very specific and can be vectored through birds and through insects and through crops, that's much more important now.
	And so that's another reason why I think this is a dangle.
	This is a distraction in intelligence terms.
	Yeah, but wouldn't it, if they succeeded in it, wouldn't it give...
	Is NATO the pretext that they need to justify moving into Ukraine with American troops, for example, the 101st Airborne?
	You know, that's been in the headlines lately.
	Some of those troops in Romania, I believe, you know, within airdrop distance to Odessa.
	I know you mentioned Gonzalo.
	He talked about that as well.
	But wouldn't this be...
	Even if it's not effective as a war...
	Tactic or a war weapon.
	It's effective as a propaganda justification to try to gain public support for the actions that NATO wishes to take.
	Wouldn't that be effective?
	That's very true, but the point of doing that for the propaganda to build support, I think, would fail.
	Now, that doesn't mean they're not following a plan, but as I always say, plans are useless.
	Planning is invaluable.
	Develop the situation, and I'm quoting Pete Blaber, the squadron leader of Delta Force back in the day who wrote The Mission to Men and Me, but they are locked into their plans.
	And the Biden gang is doing what their puppet masters say to do.
	The 101 is over there.
	The 101 has been running nuclear drills, CBR and drills.
	That's true.
	But there is no support for that at all.
	I talked to lots of veterans.
	You know, being a veteran, I talked to veterans who's Whose fathers and grandfathers and great-grandfathers have been in every war the United States has ever fought, and they're saying, we're not going to go and I'm not going to send my kids to this one.
	And that's because of what has happened with the military.
	You see these trannies everywhere, and the military is completely deconstructed and interdicted, and it's not what draws people to the military anymore.
	So there's no support for that at all.
	So I don't think even that would work, even if it happens.
	So I think it would be ineffective either way.
	Well, is that because you think there's not much faith left in the propaganda media, where people would just say, no, we don't believe you anymore after all the COVID lies and everything?
	Yeah.
	And with the military, you know, it's less than 1% joins the military.
	And there's kind of two Americas.
	You know, there's the big, soft, fat America.
	And then there's, you know, the flyover country fighters and patriots.
	Who are much more aware constitutionally because you take an oath to support and defend and really know what's going on.
	And they're paying attention to all of that.
	And then if you have any history at all, you look at taking on Russia and how that works out.
	It's like taking on Afghanistan.
	It's always a bad idea.
	And that will definitely fail.
	But the ridiculous gangsters that are running the Biden regime don't study history.
	They don't know military tactics and strategy.
	They don't know scripture.
	And so they come up with all these bright ideas, just like Benghazi.
	I still believe that Benghazi...
	It was supposed to be a chance to exchange Stevens and do a negotiation, and that fell apart.
	Because once you flip the violence switch, you can't just turn it off.
	And that's important to understand.
	And that's another reason why I don't think NATO support is fading daily.
	The reason that we blew up Not the American people, but the corrupt U.S. government blew up the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, and I assessed that at 100%, and I've talked about that, is because they didn't want to give Europe and the German people another option.
	But that did not build any support for them.
	On the contrary, they don't understand history and the fact that when you make things harder for people, it doesn't lessen their resistance, it increases it.
	Good point.
	Real quick on the Nord Stream pipeline, I agree with your conclusion, but did you ultimately decide what you think was the most likely method of demolition?
	Was it an underwater demolition team?
	Or I remember Monkey Works at one point was talking about a flight path of something that could have dropped a kind of a torpedo that goes underwater.
	What do you think the method was?
	That's kind of outside my special operations box, but I do know some Navy hardhat divers.
	And in this case, I think it was a remote underwater drone.
	And I think back in 2015, Americans or NATO had a underwater drone right next to the pipeline.
	I covered that.
	So I don't think there was any divers or anything.
	Diving at that deep is very difficult.
	If it was divers, it'd be hardhat divers.
	I know the guys that go inside the nuclear reactors and stuff, and I don't think that's how they did that.
	The planes, I think, that Monkey Works were looking at were counter surveillance and looking out for submarines and other stuff.
	It's just screening that typically happens when you're running an operation.
	I see.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Well, that's good to know.
	And when that happened, once you knew that that was the US that blew up Nord Stream 1 and 2, did that alarm you in terms of how that had expanded the theater of operations and that the US was then saying, well, we can go after essentially civilian infrastructure type of targets in this scenario?
	Well, I've been alarmed by that for a long time.
	I've been alarmed with the obsession of killing the unborn, the obsession of leaving American children in Afghanistan, of sacrificing our troops, all of that.
	There's nothing new about that.
	But it just shows the incompetence because they don't understand human nature.
	The great resetters and these tyrants are all relying on technology.
	They are not looking into human nature at all.
	And for example, with bombing, whether it's underwater bombing or whatever kind of bombing, except for Hiroshima and Nagasaki, The only exception, wherever else you look, wherever bombing has been done, it has strengthened resistance.
	It has not reduced resistance.
	And the Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that's a different category.
	And so we are the only country to ever wage nuclear war before.
	So we have a history of doing that.
	We could do that.
	But that was to break the will of the Japanese people, because taking the islands and Guadalcanal and everything was incredibly bloody and expensive, and that made a difference then.
	I don't think that that really applies to the current war, which I'm calling World War IV and fifth-generational biodigital information influence operations versus just very traditional fourth-generation resistance movements.
	Yeah, I'm really glad you point that out, but there's still an element of this right now, at least what's happening in the Donbass region, Ukraine and Russia, facing off in a kinetic posture with artillery and so on, armored vehicles and things like that.
	And I want to ask, what is your assessment of the...
	Given the current state of de-industrialization of Western Europe with so many...
	Well, like in Germany, I think the largest steel plant is about to be shut down, largest plant in the world.
	Aluminum is down 70%, copper, many other things.
	Electricity prices, of course, 1,000% above normal for a lot of Western Europe.
	If Western Europe were to be engaged in an actual kinetic war with Russia...
	Does Western or even does the United States even have the ability to manufacture the heavy industry components necessary to even wage that kind of war at this point?
	Well, no, we don't and they don't.
	And not only do we not have the ability to do that, and again, trying to take Russia is like trying to seize Afghanistan.
	It's not doable because on their end, on the Russian end, on the Afghanistan end, it would be what we would be doing here is defending our homeland.
	And until we lost a fifth-generation war against China and a variety of other The only wars we had ever lost were fourth-generation wars.
	So we don't have the capability.
	We don't have the industrial capability.
	But more important, if it did go nuclear and if it continues to go kinetic, It will be the end of civilization in Europe and things will start turning off.
	And once you start turning things off, it's hard to turn them back on.
	Just like when you flip the switch of violence, you can't turn that off.
	Once you destroy technology and civilization, it's very difficult to put that back on and turn that back on.
	And I've got that from I'm able to talk to Green Beret reporter Michael Yawn, the Ernie Pyle of this generation, a friend of mine who's all over the place, and young, retired Green Beret Clay Martin, who wrote Prairie Fire and just came out with his new book, you know, Wrath of the Windingo, which I interviewed him about, but they both say the same things.
	And SF guys, you know, and I was privileged to serve on a B team, not on an A team, but on a B team in seventh group.
	They're just so versatile and so wise in experience and can do anything, but they both say the same thing.
	This could be the beginning of the dark ages in Europe and follow on in America as well.
	And all that would take, it sounds like what you're saying, and yes, I've interviewed Michael Yan as well, very knowledgeable, travels the world, talks to people firsthand all over the place.
	That guy must have more miles than anybody I know.
	You know, air miles.
	But what holds civilization together is so fragile.
	And right now, let me segue to this question off of what you just said.
	You have food scarcity and energy scarcity hitting Europe very hard this winter.
	And the government's solution primarily is to print money to bail out the cost of food and electricity.
	But printing money doesn't create more natural gas.
	Printing money doesn't fix Nord Stream 1 and 2.
	As the governments of Western Europe try to print the money to bail people out of the energy crisis, aren't they going to cause a financial crisis and a currency crisis?
	Well, that's all purposeful.
	That's all part of the Great Reset.
	That's all part of unrestricted warfare.
	The Great Reset being WEF, unrestricted warfare being China.
	So I'm differentiating between the nation-state enemy of China and the non-nation-state transnational enemies of WEF, Soros, Swab, all that kind of thing, who are allied at times, but not necessarily all of the time.
	But the thing that neither of them understand, because the Chinese Communist Party and Xi, although they have infiltrated America, they do not understand America, although they understand America better than we understand China.
	And the World Economic Forum folks, Schwab and Soros and the like, don't understand the great unwashed flyover territory.
	They think they can make all of this work, according to Yuval Noah Harari with technology.
	He, for example, says, oh, nurses are more easily, more difficult to make into AI than doctors, but we can make doctors.
	So they're focused on outer technology as the answer, as opposed to what I'm always talking about as inner technology through God, which is what we do through martial arts.
	What the tribes are all about.
	And of course, outer technology always fails.
	And the likelihood of outer technology failing now is higher than ever.
	It is highly probable with our logistics systems, our supply systems, the rail strike that's going to come back up because they have reneged on that, the trucking system because they can't afford diesel fuel, the container ships that are being boxed up And left on purpose.
	When all that fails, they think that they can replace that with their technology.
	And they're not looking at history and they're not looking at the human experience.
	They're not paying any attention to, for example, Sri Lanka.
	But for those of us who have worked in special forces and worked with people, in special forces, there's a saying, people are always more important than technology.
	Americans always love technology, but really, it's not the arrow, it's the archer.
	And they don't clearly see what's going to happen, where all this will fall and fail, and then they lose control.
	Yeah, right, right.
	And that can happen very rapidly.
	I just want to remind people that your website is jeffreyprather.com and you do a lot of great work.
	You interview amazing guests.
	And again, I think your analysis is spot on because of your experience.
	You know, you've got all this life experience and conversations with contacts and so on.
	And I really trust your analysis.
	Sometimes you and I might disagree about analysis, and often when that's the case, I'm like, eh, you're probably right.
	Because you've just been there more.
	You've seen this stuff more.
	I mean, if we have a debate about food science, it's probably me.
	If it's about world events with special forces, you know better.
	So, you know, thank you for all that you do.
	Let's move into elections.
	What's your take on where things are going for the midterms?
	Number one, do you think they're going to take place as planned?
	And then secondly, if they do, you know, can the American people override the cheating?
	Yeah, I think that, you know, sometimes we disagree, but we are friends.
	I support you, and I really am honored to be on Brighton TV, and I love that all the Liberty Luminaries are there.
	And people say, hey, well, you disagree.
	I'm like, that's unimportant.
	We just all need to continue to team up against the Great Reset and our enemies.
	And that's a great thing.
	And I do consider you a friend, and I stand by you, and I will never betray you.
	I've been betrayed countless times.
	And I don't care what people say.
	But anyway, on the elections, will the elections occur?
	So I think tying that back to the nuclear threat, one of the scenarios that they might have wanted to play out was some kind of nuclear crisis so they could shut down elections.
	Just like they did with the pandemic.
	Now, I don't think that now is viable because I assess the intelligence that Russia says that they've intercepted the dirty bomb, whether it's nuclear or whether it just is made to look nuclear.
	But the important thing is it's made to look strategic.
	I think they have lost that card.
	I think they're very much in a reactive mode.
	Because the fourth generation resistance is worldwide, it's everywhere, and they just can't keep up with it.
	I don't do a lot of speeches.
	With you, we did together the first Freedom and Health, and I'm going to do the last one.
	I did do the pit for Greg Phillips, and I've been talking a lot about that because I thought it was A crucial inflection point of turning the Claymore around, the technology that's been turned against the American people that we used to use in Tier 1 Special Operations Intelligence against cartel leaders and high-value terrorist targets.
	And we are turning that around again.
	I think 2,000 mules turned that around as an influence operation of truth.
	And I think then the geofencing has turned that around again.
	But the result of that, the Eugene Yu arrest, And the Konec connections that all kinds of patriotic journalists have jumped on all over the place, showing IPs going back to Wuhan,
	China, just like with the COVID PSYOP, and then continuing to explain that is really beginning to strip their ability to have cover.
	And cover, of course, provides protection, but their cover is really concealment.
	That is the deep state, the double state, the FBI has to act like they're a law enforcement organization.
	The CIA has to act like they're on our side.
	Their cover is concealment, and they are losing concealment at an ever-increasing pace that they can't keep up with.
	And so that goes into all the controversies that we're seeing with the Dropbox.
	And they are increasingly using force.
	You know, the FBI going after Mike Lindell.
	You know, you and I both know him and going after moms and everybody else.
	And that shows desperation because force is not power.
	Yeah, it's a really important point.
	So what you're saying is that these are the signs of the breaking point of this cabal, that this is their last desperate chapter.
	They realize they're losing grip on the source of real power, which has to be, by the way, the public's consent and public's faith and trust in institutions.
	And that's shattered when you talk about FBI, ATF, CDC, FDA, White House, whatever.
	And by the way, correct me if I'm stating that wrong, but I think that's what you're saying.
	Yeah, but I say real power comes from God because power is a symptom of energy.
	No scientist knows really what energy is, so I say it's a symptom of God.
	But they try to make power look like force.
	And so that's intimidation.
	And like bombing, all that does is build resistance because they don't study scripture, they don't study human nature, and they don't look at history.
	So they think, okay, we'll arrest people and that will be the end of this.
	Just like the Romans thought, hey, one more crucifixion and this will be over.
	They're really building the resistance.
	And that's what I say we're doing right now in a nonviolent, legal, ethical, and moral way, because I'm always careful to say I'm not advocating illegal, moral, and ethical, or violent, although the left does continually and blatantly.
	But They are building their own resistance.
	That's what unconventional warfare is.
	That's what foreign internal development is.
	That's exactly what special forces does.
	And they are building their own demise daily and losing more.
	You look at Biden or the doubles.
	I say there's lots of doubles.
	Rarely is it him, if at all, is very similar with Fetterman.
	He's incompetent and cognitively challenged as well.
	The puppet masters are running out of puppets.
	Yeah, that was interesting that they put Fetterman on stage in the debate with Dr.
	Oz, and Fetterman's showing was so disastrous that the polls shifted dramatically.
	Oz is going to win unless something changes in a huge way here, but I was thinking, and maybe you were thinking this too, is like, is this all they've got?
	I mean, Fetterman is the last guy they can put out there.
	Couldn't they?
	I mean, he had a stroke earlier in the year.
	Couldn't they have changed their candidate?
	I mean, seriously.
	Or couldn't they have found a double for Fetterman?
	Or maybe they can't double the growth on his neck too.
	I don't know.
	I mean, it's hard to double that guy.
	You know, you've got to have a double of the double.
	So I don't know.
	What are your thoughts?
	No, you could do the neck.
	The masks that you see in Mission Impossible are real.
	They go back to my day that the CIA developed out of Hollywood.
	But the point is they weren't focused on Zelensky.
	They weren't focused on Biden.
	They're not focused on Federman.
	They're focused on technology to cheat.
	But the U-Arrest, the Eugene U-Arrest, connecting that to CONAC, is open, and the IP address is going back to Wuhan, where the COVID SIOP comes from, is part of their...
	And there's other things that are happening as well, because really...
	All of this comes back to UMINT, human intelligence, and that was my area.
	I say all intelligence really is UMINT. They're really focused on SIGINT, but somebody has to manipulate and assess the SIGINT intelligence, and that goes back to UMINT. And yes, so as the Biden doubles and Fetterman are ammunition, which they are because they don't care about them as people, they represent nothing as human beings, They are running out of that.
	But that's not where their focus is.
	Their focus is totally on technology as they collapse their own technology system.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	So it really is a suicide cult.
	That's amazing.
	It is.
	What about, do you have any predictions you want to offer about the election outcome?
	Well, I think that there's going to be...
	There's going to be cheating, but the important point here is that when the Dems, the whole thing with Hillary and Trump, where the Dems said, that's not real, there was cheating,
	and then there was very obvious cheating with Biden and Trump, then the other side saying cheating, those sides starting to fight each other And on the left, it has gotten kinetically violent, sporadic, but they're building the ability to have violence.
	That's going to lead to more inflection points and flashpoints.
	I don't think they're trying to do that at those points, but that's what's going to happen.
	And that's where they start to lose control of everything.
	So you've got the 101 over there, 82nd on standby, the police departments are cuckolded and castrated, and then you're gonna have all of this crime happening.
	So there are places where the resistance is surfacing, surprisingly, that you got indicted in LA. You know, Gascon is a Soros flunky, but there are other folks out there in his shop that are not.
	There was an FBI whistleblower of the 300 out there now that was talking about the 7th floor that was inside the headquarters.
	They are collapsing from inside.
	So I think that we're going to see, I'm not trying to have a cop out, but I'm saying that a lot of that is fading.
	I think there's going to be, as we take more human terrain, because they hold very little of it, and more physical terrain, you're going to see victories in some areas.
	And still cheating where they can control it.
	But I don't think that they'll control it in all of the swing states like they were able to because I just think their plans that they are locked into are continuing to fail.
	But some of that will, again, that will be sabotage.
	Sabotage through espionage.
	I hope that answers your question.
	Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
	A lot of layers to all of this.
	I'm just trying to get a sense of where you think, you know, there's this ongoing debate about, shall I say, white hats or kind of, are there enough good people in positions of power within the system to be able to wake up and whatever words you want to use, you know, to blow the whistle.
	There's a lot of whistleblowers coming out right now, for example.
	But the term, the generic term is white hats.
	Oh.
	I did a lot of openings where I was addressing specifically FBI 1811 special agents and telling them to stand up and come forward.
	And I think that I made a difference.
	Todd Callender says I made a difference.
	You know, he's probably a better judge of that.
	But The problem I see with too many people is they want a very simplistic kind of movie version of this.
	And one of the best things I've ever heard from an early SEAL team commander in Afghanistan way back when was saying, there's good, good guys, there's good, bad guys, there's bad, good guys, and there's bad, bad guys.
	And that changes everything.
	According to the terrain and the day and the relationships.
	And so a lot of the politicians and certainly all the upper management are politicians.
	You get as soon as you get one star in the military, with very few exceptions, you're a politician.
	A lot of the constitutional sheriffs are politicians.
	They are not standing up like they should be.
	I'm talking about Lamb and Mack.
	I'm calling them out right now and right here because I've talked to both of them.
	They're going with the wind, but as the left tyranny It loses more human terrain than people start switching sides and the momentum builds.
	But fourth-generation warfare takes decades.
	And sometimes, if you look at fourth-generational revolutionary Christian warfare against Rome, and Rome was much better soldiers, not warriors, but soldiers, than America, it took about 300 years.
	It took almost three centuries.
	For them to overcome Rome with fourth generation nonviolent.
	So this is a long struggle and it's a slow struggle, but I do say we are winning.
	It's interesting.
	You talk about Rome and I was just thinking there's an Indian man now, the prime minister of the UK. So what a turn of events from the history of British occupation of India.
	You know, I mean, just think about it, folks.
	That's pretty wild.
	His name is Sunak, I believe.
	He's the new prime minister.
	Hopefully he'll last longer than Liz Truss, which was all of about 45 days.
	That didn't turn out too well.
	What about, kind of the last question I want to ask you then, when you talk about fourth generation warfare, that includes, I believe, you know, the technology of bioweapons.
	And I want to ask you, what is your overall view of the influence of vaccines and the SARS-CoV-2 bioweapon and how those things are being used in this warfare?
	And is it being effective from the point of view of those who deploy the weapons?
	Well, let me go back to England for a second.
	Trust being replaced after 45 days, that's really showing that there is no stable government, and England is falling and Europe is falling, and that goes back to the fall of Europe and the fall of civilization, which all that takes is a trigger of all-out war or nuclear war or something like that, and then Europe is back into the Dark Ages.
	And that's very possible with the fragile supply system that's going on.
	But biodigital weaponry is really fifth generation warfare.
	Fourth generation warfare is Vietnam, it's Indian wars, it's Afghanistan.
	It's just the people, the homeland people, resisting and building resistance and building counter institutions.
	For example, Don't go to hospitals.
	Hospitals are where they're going to jab you.
	They're going to get paid.
	You've got to find a family doctor and you've got to get families to neighbor up, team up.
	You know, that's what Team America is about, doing that.
	So it's building an alternative structure.
	Fifth-generation warfare is really, hey, we're going to PSYOP you with this flu like COVID. So that you'll get the biodigital graphene hydroxide mRNA-modifying system, then we'll inject the boosters so that we can then control you remotely as we develop the systems, as we turn on the directed energy weapons, as we do the graphene chemtrails.
	It's a very layered system as well, but it depends upon a lot of technology.
	And the lie is that they think they can make that work without anyone.
	And that will never work without anyone.
	It is designed to fail.
	It fails every time this is tried.
	And the analogy there is, whether you look at Khmer Rouge or you look at Stalin or you look at Bloomberg, oh, these stupid peasant farmers, we don't need them.
	All we'll do is put the seed in the soil, put water on it, and stuff will grow.
	That's not true at all.
	That's arrogance.
	And you know this very well better than anybody.
	The wisdom comes from experience of generations learning how to plant, where to plant, what to plant, what to eat.
	And when you ignore that, people starve to death.
	And that looks like that's coming.
	So...
	I am very confident that we will win and they will lose.
	That doesn't mean a lot of people aren't going to die.
	A lot of people have already died.
	A lot more people are going to die.
	But as America hardens up again and America will never be disarmed, they will not be able to hold this.
	And if they went to real warfare, you never know what the results of real warfare, which is why you never know how people react in combat.
	That's why we have all these screens of going through basic training, advanced training, airborne ranger special forces, because we're trying to weed out the folks, but we really never know.
	We don't know who Desmond Doss is until he's put on Hacksaw Ridge and turns into Superman.
	And so when you get into a warfare like that, you don't know what's going to happen.
	And they would not be able to have control.
	But the veterans of GWAT, of Government War on Terror, and the Patriots and the Farmers, They would come together, and they are coming together.
	And so I'm very hopeful.
	I'm very faith-filled.
	But, you know, I expect my children to be in this fight.
	Wow.
	Okay.
	So that's quite a timescale that you're referring to.
	But at least one more question for you, if you don't mind.
	I... I interviewed William Kirk yesterday.
	He's a firearms attorney that helps people work out problems with the ATF and handle self-defense shootings as well.
	He's in Washington State.
	And we were talking about ATF overreach and the new ATF proposed rules that are supposed to be published sometime in December that would effectively criminalize perhaps 10 million Americans or many millions over their possession of arm braces.
	And you know what I'm talking about.
	You know, the arm braces on the AR-15 pistols.
	And I think we all have arm braces.
	How can you resist buying arm braces?
	So the ATF is going to make them illegal.
	You just said you think the American people will not be effectively disarmed.
	But what do you make of the ATF trying to do this, turning people into criminals when they purchase all of these items perfectly legally?
	Yeah, so I have two shoulder surgeries, you know, hip replacement.
	I'm, you know, because the government's rode me hard and put me away wet, you know, old paratrooper.
	So yeah, got a brace.
	And I think that's a perfect example of the government not understanding the fight at all.
	So if you take away or make the arm braces illegal, that is not going to stop resistance.
	That's simply going to build more resistance.
	What you're taking is the backbone of the people, the veterans, the cops, the farmers, the ranchers, the guys who really build the roads and fight the wars and saying, okay, you're criminals.
	And they'll say, okay.
	And that will be that.
	And even if you turn in your arm braces, it won't matter.
	Really, in the coming conflict, it's not about a fancy AR weapon.
	It's really about very common stuff.
	Without...
	I'm not advocating anything illegal or more unethical, but the uniform of Delta Force, a combat applications group now, was genes because, forensically, gene fibers are everywhere.
	So if you sit down someplace later, you're not really leaving a signature.
	So they're focusing on symptoms and signature.
	Again, they don't understand the issues and the problems.
	And I just did a little thing for, I had read the Second Amendment before this for George Webb's groups.
	They're doing a constitutional thing.
	And I was honored to read the Second Amendment.
	And they're clearly not understanding the founders' intent because whether it's Judeo-Christian or tribal and constitutional, those things held because they understand the genius of the Creator's human nature.
	And they don't.
	And so going after pistol braces doesn't change anything.
	All it does is build more resistance.
	Yeah, I completely agree with that.
	And there's the ATF is setting a trap for everybody on this because one of the ways that you're able to comply with the new rules, and this would take effect sometime in 2023 if it's not blocked by a court judge before that, is you're supposed to assemble your NFA firearm is you're supposed to assemble your NFA firearm and take a photo of it, send the photo to the ATF while you're applying for a tax stamp, which is permission.
	Then to own the firearm that you've already assembled, but you've admitted to committing a felony crime by taking the photo of the firearm.
	I I mean, they'll just send ATF agents to your doors.
	And it's like, oh, wow, you're guilty.
	Yeah, that's like when I used to say, hey, I'm from the government.
	I'm here to help.
	But these other guys, not so much.
	And I think that has run its course.
	And I got to, you know, back in the day, you know, Vince Cefalu, John Dotson, great heroic ATF whistleblowers because Fast and Furious started at DEA in Arizona.
	You know, I think that ship has sailed.
	And I think that this is a ploy of desperation.
	And I think what you are going to see, so at every gun store behind the counter is an ATF agent's card.
	And ATF special agents, because I was the liaison.
	To ATF, the DA liaison in Tucson.
	And I worked with them.
	I had a desk at ATF. And no Jay Dobbins and lots of whistleblowers.
	So everybody's got a card.
	So they've made contact with all these folks.
	And they say, hey, if anything's funky, give me a call.
	And they want to do that because usually they're cops or veterans or patriotic people.
	But the opposite is actually going to happen here.
	And that's what we're already seeing with the FBI. And the FBI was the last cover organization of the deep state.
	The FBI is turning.
	The ATF is going to turn.
	They're just not going to have...
	The U.S. Marshals is at 60%.
	After the U.S. Marshals did heroic service in Portland, now they are seizing farms.
	They're not going after drug dealers, and they're at 60%.
	And so again, The left is cutting its own throat slowly, and they're just too stupid to see that.
	That's wild.
	Just wild.
	Well, you actually give us a lot of hope in your interpretation of where things are going.
	It's just that people are going to have to endure quite a lot of time of this, and also not everybody's going to make it through, clearly.
	Yeah, your thoughts on that?
	The herd is being called.
	Yeah, the herd is being called.
	Don't be in the call.
	We will win.
	We're not always winning, but we will win this.
	We can't lose it.
	We have to lose it because it's really parents against pedos.
	And it's very clear what they want to do with our children now.
	And so we will fight harder than them because of our children.
	Yeah, well said.
	Well said.
	And by the way, we're going to wrap this up now.
	I'm going to thank you for your time.
	You and I should do a little comedy routine because you said earlier, you said they indicted you.
	And, you know, the Chinese election guy, I was thinking we could do like a who's on first, like they indicted you.
	They indicted me?
	No, not you, but you.
	Who's you?
	No.
	No, no.
	No, it's like you is not who, and who is not you, but you got indicted, but not who.
	What?
	You know, we could do that routine.
	Yeah.
	That's a good one.
	We should do that.
	Yeah.
	It could be like, who's on first?
	No, you's on first.
	You got indicted first.
	Who?
	Me?
	No, not you, but you.
	Anyway, whatever.
	Think about that one, Jeffrey.
	Yeah, also you could do a t-shirt, you know, frack you, you know, and MSU. MSU, that's great.
	All right, it's just an endless creative factory here, folks.
	So our guest has been Jeffrey Prather.
	The website is jeffreyprather.com.

	And feel free to repost this interview on other platforms and other channels as well.
	And thank you for tuning in.
	I'm Mike Adams of Brighteon.com and Brighteon.tv.
	And just happy to have you with us today.
	And there's a lot more to come from Jeffrey Prather and many other highly intelligent people.
	Thank you for listening.
	Take care.
	All right.
	Welcome back.
	That was a really cool interview with Jeffrey Prather.
	The guy knows his stuff.
	I'm going to have to go through and listen to that interview again myself.
	And I wish I could have spent another hour with him on other things, but we'll have him back.
	Now, as promised, we're going to cover here for the remainder of this podcast something pretty cool.
	So my great-great-grandfather was a pastor.
	And he was a pastor in the Midwest, where I'm from.
	And in 1955, he was up there in his years.
	I don't know if he was in his 60s or something, but he got his hands on this, what is this?
	It's like a free accounting calendar handbook that was given out by an insurance company called the Minister's Life and Casualty Union.
	Okay?
	And that's the company, and they're based out of, I think, Minnesota.
	So they handed out these calendars for free, and then they insert their ads in between the calendar pages.
	And I still have the ads here.
	And this is just fascinating.
	I'm going to read for you some of the ads and some of the entries again from my great-great-grandfather in 1955.
	So every Sunday he would give a church service and he would collect, of course, tithes from the congregation.
	And so here's an entry, Sunday, April 24th, 1955.
	Tithes, $11.50.
	There you go.
	That's what a church pulled in.
	I don't know how many people were there, but $11.50.
	Here's an entry on February 19th, which is a Saturday.
	Cleaned the church and prayed.
	That's it.
	Cleaned the church and prayed.
	Well, those were simpler days, you know?
	You could spend the whole day cleaning the church and praying.
	Nothing wrong with that.
	Here we go.
	Tuesday, what is this?
	March 1st.
	Stayed home gathering eggs.
	See?
	You know, backyard chickens have been in the family, I guess, for quite a while.
	Friday, the 4th of March, prayed about all day.
	There we go.
	And then on a particularly good day in terms of tithes, this was Sunday, March 6th, 1955, service, good tithes.
	Talk?
	Is that what that says?
	Service tithes, $26.
	So that was a really good day in 1955.
	Actually, that sounds like a pretty good day for tithing.
	Here's a day of planted garden.
	Here's another day, Austin's tithes, $10.
	Let's see, Saturday the 19th of March, the biggest flood in years.
	That's interesting, so I guess we could probably look that up historically.
	So here's an indication of what money was worth back then.
	Married, what is it, Johnny Campbell to somebody, Mary, $1.80.
	So if you were a pastor and you married a couple, you got paid $1.80.
	Let's see, they finished a survey and they paid $38.
	I guess that was a land survey probably.
	On Saturday, looks like June 4th here, worked for Howard on Doors...
	Earned $1.80.
	Here's another day, June 16th, the Valines funeral.
	Apparently they ran the funeral, got paid $5.
	Okay?
	$5.
	On that Sunday after that, tithes were $10.
	Here's a Saturday, filed a saw for...
	Cleave, it looks like, got 50 cents.
	And then the following day for tithes from the church service got $8.20.
	There you go.
	So then there's one more number that's interesting.
	It looks like it's a total of all the tithes.
	For the year 1955, it looks like it's $1,220.
	If I'm understanding that correctly, does that sound about right?
	I don't know, $10 every Sunday would be what?
	That'd be like $500, right?
	$520.
	But they have tithes.
	They did services during the week sometimes, and they had good tithing days.
	So yeah, a church could earn about $1,200 in a year in the Midwest in 1955.
	Now, how interesting is that?
	Well, the price of silver in 1955 was $0.85 an ounce.
	And you could pretty much get silver for just about spot price back then.
	Today, you know, to get an ounce of a U.S. minted Silver Eagle, you're going to pay almost a 100% premium over spot price.
	Could easily be $35 or something like that.
	But take a look at what other things cost in 1955.
	You could get bananas, two pounds for 27 cents.
	And chicken?
	43 cents a pound.
	What's that costing today?
	I don't know.
	You could pay $10 a pound for chicken.
	Chuck roast, 59 cents a pound.
	Not going to see that anytime soon.
	Eggs, 79 cents a dozen.
	An entire loaf of bread, 12 cents.
	Yeah.
	10-pound bag of potatoes for 35 cents.
	Porterhouse steak.
	95 cents a pound.
	Yeah.
	A box of Kellogg's shredded wheat.
	18 cents.
	Mm-hmm.
	Grape jelly.
	19 cents.
	Yeah, there you go.
	Baby food.
	Gerber's brand.
	10 cents.
	So, you see what's happened to the dollar, right?
	The dollar's lost all this value since then.
	So, of course, if you had held onto dollars...
	In 1955 that you would earn, like my great-great-grandfather, let's say he took in $1,200 a year in church tithing.
	If he had held on to those dollars until today, well, it'd be almost worthless.
	You can't buy much for $1,200 these days, especially if that's the whole year.
	You can't run a church on $1,200 today, obviously.
	It's absurd.
	But what if he had bought silver at $0.85 an ounce?
	What would that silver be worth today?
	Over $50,000.
	Yeah, exactly.
	So if you held dollars, they'd become worthless.
	If you held silver, it basically held its value.
	And silver is likely to go much higher from here as well.
	So...
	Think about that.
	Think about where to keep assets that actually matters.
	And the answer clearly is not in cash, not in dollars, but in something like metals or perhaps land.
	You know, all the things I've talked about, the hard assets that don't vanish in the middle of a crash.
	So there's a lesson right out of my family history right there.
	Great-great-grandfather Pastor, which maybe is not that surprising given what I do here in this podcast, it's a form of mentoring or pastoring, I suppose, without the overlay of the church institution.
	But probably doing much the same thing, you know, helping to give people guidance and making people aware of what's going on.
	And I have some other notes, by the way, from my great-great-grandfather and his family members who were studying the end times and studying the...
	In fact, there's something right out of the book of Revelation.
	They were taking notes.
	They were talking about the seven...
	Was it the seven heads, which they consider to be the seven...
	The mountains, was it?
	And then the ten horns?
	But anyway, I'll have to go back and check those notes.
	But yeah, even then, they were looking at what does the Scripture mean.
	They weren't afraid to read the book of Revelation.
	So, turns out that runs in the family.
	And I didn't even know this until recently.
	And I bet you my great-great-grandfather bought some silver.
	I bet he did.
	It's kind of an obvious thing.
	It makes instant sense when you understand history and where things are going.
	I guess I'll plug our silver sponsor here.
	If you are interested in silver, check out the Treasure Island Precious Metals and Coins Company, metalswithmike.com.
	Honest dealer.
	In fact, their sister company is one of the largest providers of wholesale metals to other retailers across North America.
	I don't earn any affiliate fees on that at all.
	And they're honest and discreet and insure delivery, all of that.
	So if you want to get into silver, metalswithmike.com.
	You may have to get in line, though, because there's not much silver left.
	And I was listening to an interview...
	I think it was, yeah, Bill Holter was on with Liberty and Finance, and I've got an interview with Bill Holter that I haven't released yet.
	I'm going to have to get that released here shortly.
	But Bill Holter was saying the day is coming very, very soon.
	Could be even just this year when there will be no silver available for consumers to purchase at all.
	And actually Steve Quayle has told me much the same thing.
	So silver is about to become unobtainium in the marketplace.
	And this is probably kind of the last few weeks or days, weeks or months when anybody will be able to get any silver without paying crazy insane prices for it.
	So silver holds value.
	Gold holds value.
	Dollars do not.
	Or, I mean, if you don't believe me, here we go.
	Three cans of creamed corn for 38 cents in 1955.
	What would that cost you today?
	Like five bucks or something?
	Maybe more.
	I don't know.
	Here we go.
	Frozen chicken pie for 19 cents.
	How about that?
	Hamburger meat, 30 cents a pound.
	30 cents a pound.
	Folks, you're going to be paying like $20 a pound real soon here.
	Like hamburgers, like a restaurant hamburger sometime next year might be like $50.
	I mean, a good one.
	Not like a cheap McDonald's burger, but like a good burger could be $50.
	I don't know.
	We'll see how crazy it gets.
	Okay, in the meantime, one last story on a different subject, and then I'll wrap this up.
	This came out in July.
	Press release from the U.S. Department of Justice.
	CEO of dozens of companies and entities charged in a scheme to traffic an estimated $1 billion in fraudulent and counterfeit Cisco networking equipment.
	This is incredible.
	So, according to the indictment, this group of people, including Dave Durden of Miami and Ron Axoy, allegedly ran 19 companies in New Jersey and Florida and 15 Amazon storefronts, 10 eBay storefronts, and other multiple entities.
	Called pro-network companies.
	And what they did is they imported thousands of, quote, fraudulent and counterfeit Cisco networking devices from China and Hong Kong.
	And then they relabeled them as Cisco when they were just kind of Chinese knockoffs.
	And then they sold them as Cisco equipment, and it generated over $100 million in revenue and millions of dollars in payouts to the owners.
	So they basically pirated Cisco software and used components that they say were unreliable and sub-quality components and so on.
	This went on, and again, Amazon was the counterfeit marketplace, and eBay was also the counterfeit marketplace.
	And what this reminds me of is the fact that, you know, there's a controversy right now about certain water filter companies and whether the water filters are working correctly or work for the duration.
	And a lot of the water filters being sold on Amazon are counterfeit water filters.
	I mean, like the replaceable elements, they're counterfeit.
	And the same thing on eBay.
	I mean, everybody knows, especially everybody in law enforcement knows that eBay is the place for stolen goods.
	Well, Amazon is the place for counterfeit goods.
	And both companies generate mega profits from crime.
	Think about that.
	How much of Jeff Bezos' fortune was built on an empire of crime?
	Quite a lot of it, it turns out.
	And the Justice Department says right here, a billion dollars in equipment sales, all counterfeit.
	On Amazon and eBay.
	So even Amazon, you can get stolen goods, counterfeit goods, you know, stuff.
	And you think you're buying the real thing.
	That's the thing.
	You think you're getting a discount on real Cisco networking equipment, let's say, or other brands, and you're not.
	It's counterfeit.
	And these shipments of counterfeit items were intercepted by CBP, which is Customs and Border Protection.
	And then the Department of Justice stepped in and I guess did all the investigation and indicted these people.
	So Customs and Border Protection, they also, they interdict shipments of suppressors or silencers for firearms from China.
	I've covered that in the past.
	And they also intercept like full auto drop-in triggers.
	That are being shipped over from China and being sold to people or at one time were sold just with these just websites in the U.S. Like you type in this website and like buyasilencer.com or whatever it was and they just ship it to you.
	It's like no background checks, you know, no ATF. Just buying like full auto triggers and all kinds of stuff.
	So, of course, those companies got shut down and I just every time I see this stuff, I just wonder, you know, what are these people thinking?
	Like, did they really think that they would never get caught?
	And those of you listening in law enforcement, you're probably laughing because you know that every criminal has a similar kind of mindset where they always think they're never going to get caught, but they do because they're not as smart as they think they are.
	They've gotten away with everything for so long, nobody's ever held them accountable.
	And this happens in every industry in one way or another.
	These criminals, or alleged criminals, indicted people, I mean, they were selling this stuff all over Amazon and eBay, and they didn't think that Cisco would notice?
	It's like, I'm pretty sure Cisco's going to notice.
	And Cisco did notice, you know, and Cisco probably brought in the DOJ. But why do these people think they can get away with all this stuff?
	And whoever's selling, like, full auto triggers on eBay or something...
	I mean, or wherever.
	I don't know.
	I'm not even going to go type that in on eBay because it probably throws red flags if you do.
	But I would imagine somebody's selling full-auto, like, drop-in triggers for Glocks and ARs and stuff all over the place.
	And if somebody wants to find them, they probably can.
	And then they make a purchase and they've committed a felony crime.
	And it's not even that person only.
	I mean, yeah, that person is probably going to go to jail because the company selling those illegal parts, well, they're going to get busted and the DOJ is going to seize all their customer records and they're going to send out ATF agents to bust in the doors of the people with the full auto triggers.
	So, folks, you're probably with me on this point.
	It's like, why do these people think they're going to get away with it?
	And again, I guess the only answer is they grew up in an environment where nobody held them accountable, which brings up the importance of good parenting.
	Set boundaries.
	Have rules.
	Make sure your children are held accountable for their actions.
	Don't let them lie.
	Don't let them deceive without some kind of repercussions.
	Not that I'm a parent or anything, but...
	If you don't set rules and boundaries when they're young, they grow up to be, you know, Cisco networking counterfeiters and full auto-trigger retailers who are about to go to jail.
	Things like that.
	You know, and it's brazen, too.
	It's just right out in the open doing this.
	They're going to get caught.
	You know, it's...
	And every one of these criminals, the minute they get caught, they just start screaming how they didn't do it.
	It wasn't me.
	You see that video?
	I don't know.
	It was a few months back about this Latina woman who didn't want to talk to the police or something.
	The police pulled her over.
	And then when she didn't like what they were saying, she just slammed on the gas and just drove off and started smashing into everything.
	And the police were chasing her and they had to do like a pit maneuver on her car, finally get her to crash into something and stop.
	And she had damaged a bunch of cop cars and run over a bunch of stuff.
	And they opened the door.
	This is all on the police body cam.
	They opened the door.
	What did she say?
	I didn't do it!
	Like, this is the number one.
	I didn't do it!
	They're like, do what?
	I didn't do it.
	It wasn't me.
	You're driving the vehicle.
	You're on camera.
	You just ran over everything.
	Yeah, of course it was you.
	I didn't do it.
	They lied to themselves from the very first moment.
	It's crazy.
	And you can just imagine when they were a child and they stole cookies from, you know, the cookie jar in the kitchen and then they had crumbs all over their mouth when the mom came in.
	Did you steal the cookies?
	I didn't do it!
	That's pretty much how they grew up and the mom didn't hold them accountable and so they end up being adults in the same thing.
	I didn't do it!
	Actually, you did.
	You know, I think we need to combine some of the characters that we cover here in the podcast.
	Like the Sit Down Wilson guy.
	Sit down, Wilson!
	And I didn't do it!
	Put him on the same subway train.
	See how that goes?
	Wilson!
	Wilson!
	How come you're not sitting properly?
	I didn't do it!
	Just have a little recording in the mannequin.
	I didn't do it!
	Anyway, it's a crazy world, folks, as you know.
	But I've taken up enough of your time today.
	Thank you for listening, and I hope you learned some useful things and had a little bit of fun along the way.
	And we will, of course, cover more news tomorrow and see what else is happening.
	Use the time wisely, as I always say.
	Get ready.
	Get prepared.
	I'm hearing a lot of rumors, crazy stuff.
	It's kind of nice Jeffrey Prather thinks that the dirty bomb won't be detonated in Ukraine.
	That's good news to hear.
	I've got another source telling me that Trump's about to be arrested.
	I don't know if it's true or not, so we'll see.
	But, you know, the election's, what, a little bit under two weeks away, so we're getting closer, and that's good.
	Let's see if we can make it there.
	Maybe we can change this country on Election Day.
	I believe we can.
	I think that a lot of Democrats are going to go down in flames on Election Day, actually.
	I mean, not literal flames, but electoral flames.
	And then, you know, when it's all said and done, We're going to have like Katie Hobbs out of Arizona.
	Famous last words, I didn't do it!
	Because she didn't.
	She didn't do anything.
	She didn't do the debate.
	Nothing.
	Carrie Lake is rocking it.
	Okay.
	Thanks for listening.
	We'll talk to you tomorrow.
