	All right, welcome to the situation update for Tuesday, January 3rd, 2022. welcome to the situation update for Tuesday, January 3rd, 2022.
	Mike Adams here.
	Thank you for joining me.
	Just a reminder, we've got a 12-part series coming out.
	It's going to be free.
	It's called Breaking Point.
	And I think that we're launching part one tomorrow or the next day.
	You'll see that on brighteon.com.
	I'll let you know about it.
	It's fantastic.
	It features all these top experts.
	You're going to love it.
	It's very informative.
	Now, we've got a lot to cover today.
	The main emphasis is what just happened in Russia with the Ukraine attack using U.S.-supplied HIMARS missiles and U.S.-supplied intelligence and targeting information and so on to kill hundreds of Russian troops on an attack of basically a barracks and an ammunition depot in the, I believe it was in the Donetsk region or nearby.
	I'll give you the details here later.
	We're going to cover that.
	Also, I've got two interviews coming up today, both of them a little bit on the shorter side, but we're going to talk to experts about the comet impact theory and also then Taiwan and China, the possibility of war happening in the Pacific theater, not to mention the Russia-European the possibility of war happening in the Pacific theater, not to mention the Russia-European war situation, but And then we've got the Wall Street Journal now admitting in a story that the more vaccines you take, the higher your risk of catching COVID.
	I want to start out with something involving a celebrity, Jeremy Renner.
	Jeremy Renner, apparently, he was involved in some kind of a freak accident from his snowplow, which ran over his leg and sounds like more than his leg, maybe his pelvis and so on.
	And he nearly died and he's lost a lot of blood.
	He was the actor that played Hawkeye in the Avengers movie.
	And I think he played Jason Bourne in one of the Jason Bourne movies, which didn't work out so well for whatever reason.
	Matt Damon is the best Jason Bourne, it seems.
	But anyway, look, I want to say I wish Jeremy Renner the best in his recovery.
	And of course, we don't wish pain and suffering or injury upon anyone.
	However, I have to question the media's coverage of this.
	The media is out there blaming the snow plow.
	Which is just classic among the corporate left-wing media that even when there's a radical Islamic terrorist that drives a van and runs over people with the van, the media blame the van.
	They say, you know, van attack or van-struck pedestrians, not the driver.
	Well, here's a case where Jeremy Renner It had this big snow plow.
	It's a snowcat snow plow.
	It's a large tracked vehicle.
	Looks like it's got steel tracks.
	Each track is about maybe three to four feet wide.
	This is a huge vehicle.
	And it's got a big plow in front, obviously, to push snow around.
	And Jeremy Renner, you know, it's got a cab.
	It's got a climate controlled cab.
	And you sit above the tracks in the cab and you drive this thing and you push snow around.
	And apparently, Jeremy Renner, he likes to clear the snow on his driveway at his five-bedroom ranch in Lake Tahoe, apparently, is what's being reported by the UK Daily Mail.
	And it's being reported that the snowplow is actually a German-made machine by a company called Koss Borer.
	And somehow, Jeremy Renner's leg got run over by this machine.
	Now, the media is saying, this is the UK Daily Mail quoting TMZ, Quote, TMZ reports that the vehicle's safety features failed and caused it to roll over Renner's leg.
	All right?
	Now, I take issue with this.
	This sounds like complete nonsense to me.
	And I think this comes down, frankly, to politics.
	Now, again, I want to be clear.
	I wish Jeremy Renner a speedy recovery and safety and freedom from pain and all of that.
	I don't wish suffering upon anyone.
	But...
	These machines, especially German-made machines, come with an extraordinary number of safety features and you're not supposed to get out of the cab And tromp around outside when the vehicle is in gear.
	Okay?
	There are so many safety features of these machines.
	And, you know, I operate heavy equipment, right?
	So I know how to run, and I have run for thousands of hours, by the way, excavators and PTO equipment on tractors, track loaders, skid steers, and so on.
	I know how to run this equipment.
	And I know about the safety measures.
	There is no way in my assessment That this machine can run over your leg unless you, the user, have failed to do something regarding, you know, the park.
	Put it in park.
	Take it out of gear.
	Put the brake on.
	You know, whatever.
	Disengage the PTO on a tractor.
	I mean, every year people die in tractor combines and so on because the PTO is still engaged and they reach in, you know, and it grabs their arm and sucks them in or grabs a leg or whatever.
	Or people get their...
	Scarves and jackets wrapped up in the rotating PTO on the back of a tractor.
	And that's why you don't step out of the tractor while the PTO is engaged, by the way.
	It's a safety feature that's very important to follow.
	And you know, I've talked about having tractors and a PTO generator.
	Well, that PTO generator is a rotating, you know, power takeoff driveshaft.
	And if you get clothing caught up in that thing, it'll wrap you up and kill you.
	So this is not stuff to mess around with.
	Now, we don't know yet exactly the details of how did Jeremy Renner leave the cab?
	Because when you're sitting in a cab, you are above the tracks and you're isolated from the tracks.
	You are in like a room.
	It's like a little room on top.
	It's like a cockpit on top of the vehicle.
	You can't get run over from there.
	You literally can't get run over while you're sitting in the cab.
	That is impossible, which means that somehow Jeremy Renner got out of the cab and ended up getting run over outside the cab because somehow the machine was still in gear or still moving or something along those lines.
	So my guess is that the media is covering for Jeremy Renner because he is one of these left wing actors who's been part of the Avengers that attacked Trump and pushed vaccines.
	And because actors like Jeremy Renner are considered, quote, politically correct, they will never be blamed for these kinds of accidents.
	Whereas you can bet if President Trump had run over his own leg using a snowplow, all the media in the world would say something like, oh, Trump runs over himself.
	What an idiot.
	That would be the story.
	But when Jeremy Renner does it, again, I don't mean anything bad to Jeremy Renner, and I wish him a speedy recovery.
	But when he does it, oh, it's the machine's fault somehow.
	That's what TMZ said.
	The vehicle safety features failed.
	See, I think the vehicle safety features failed to be engaged by Jeremy Renner.
	That's my guess.
	Now, perhaps I'll be corrected on this.
	Perhaps some detail will come out.
	Perhaps some magical fairy took over the machine and put it in gear.
	Maybe there was a poltergeist on the gear shifter or something.
	And it just took it over.
	It had a mind of its own.
	Like a Stephen King novel.
	You know, when the machines, they came alive and started attacking people.
	Maybe that's what happened.
	But I doubt it.
	My guess is...
	Jeremy Renner failed to put it in park, failed to take it out of gear, failed to engage the brake, something like that, or maybe one or all three of those.
	And then he got out, and then the machine, and he put himself in a position where the machine can roll over your leg, and then the machine rolled over his leg.
	You can't blame the machine for that.
	Just saying.
	So those of us who own tractors and who run equipment, You learn very quickly what not to do.
	For example, if you have a big tractor, it's got a big-ass tire.
	Well, I mean, two of them on the rear.
	But if you're wanting to start that tractor without sitting in the seat, you want to stand beside the tractor and kind of lean in.
	I'm saying this is what, in your mind, you might want to do.
	You might want to just lean in and turn the key and start it without getting on the tractor's seat.
	But to do so is a very dangerous thing because it puts you right in front of that big five foot or six foot tire.
	And what if you turn the key and that tractor is actually in gear and you didn't realize, oh, you thought it was in neutral, but it's actually in gear?
	You turn that key, the battery energy drives the starter, the starter drives the engine, the engine drives the transmission, and that tractor lurches forward and rolls over you.
	That can happen.
	That has happened.
	That's why you don't put yourself in front of the tire when that tractor is starting it or if there's even any possibility that somebody else left it in gear.
	If you own a tractor...
	And I know Seth Whole House owns a tractor.
	He was telling me about it in an interview, Man in America.
	And he listened to my books like Resilient Prepping, and he got a tractor with a PTO and a PTO generator.
	And I know he and his family listen to this podcast.
	So hi, Seth.
	But you know that you don't get off that tractor with the PTO running unless you're extremely cautious.
	And you don't wear loose clothing with strings and things that might get caught in that PTO. You don't have anybody around that PTO, especially not children, because they can get caught up in that thing and just twisted to death.
	Because believe me, you can't fight 100 horsepower if it's trying to suck you in and grind you up, right?
	So anyway, a doctor who was a neighbor of Jeremy Renner apparently saved his life with a tourniquet.
	Now, this tells us a couple of interesting things.
	Number one, it's very important to know how to stop bleeding.
	Yeah, so learn how to use a tourniquet and importantly, learn how to apply a tourniquet to yourself using one hand and learn how to do it with the left hand and your right hand as well.
	So this is a very important skill.
	Some people that I know actually carry tourniquets.
	I'm not currently carrying a tourniquet, but it's not a bad idea.
	I've seen some people with ankle, like, I don't know, ankle holsters, but modified to carry tourniquets and first aid gear and things like that.
	So they carry it on their ankle.
	Not a bad idea.
	But this doctor saved Jeremy Renner's life by applying a tourniquet.
	Now, what does that tell you?
	It tells you that he was bleeding profusely, which means that whatever happened with this machine and his leg was pretty serious.
	He got ground up in a bad way, is what it sounds like.
	Enough to sever probably, I mean, potentially the femoral artery.
	Which is what could cause the, quote, serious blood loss.
	Reportedly, he lost up to 40% of his blood, which can kill you, obviously.
	And he was in critical condition.
	But stopping that blood loss requires an extremely tight tourniquet.
	And when you put tourniquets on people, normally you don't make them tight enough.
	You have to make them so tight that the person usually is screaming.
	And then you need to write the time on the tourniquet.
	Because when they get to the ER... Those people there need to know, well, how long has this limb not had blood supply?
	Because that will determine whether the limb can be saved.
	Now, it's interesting that a leg can go quite a long time without a blood supply, believe it or not.
	It'll just go to sleep and numb and it'll come back.
	But you can't leave a leg out there for three hours with no blood supply.
	You're going to lose the leg.
	So if you have to apply a tourniquet to somebody, be sure to write the time on the tourniquet.
	Which is why it's a good reason to carry a permanent marker on you.
	Yes, another important piece of gear.
	And in addition to writing it on the tourniquet, you can mark it on the person's leg.
	So when they go into the emergency room and they rip off the shreds of clothing that are left, they're going to see a note.
	Oh, tourniquet applied at 3.37 p.m.
	or whatever.
	And the ER physician is going to say, thank you.
	Now we know what we're working with here.
	So folks, plan ahead.
	You know, be part of the solution here.
	If you're going to save somebody's life, have a marker with you, too, so you can write down the time of the blood loss being averted with the tourniquet.
	And don't worry about spelling tourniquet.
	Nobody can spell that word.
	Just do your best.
	All right, and the other important point I wanted to mention on all this is that it is critical.
	These days, right now, with the hospitals a mess and first responders not responding that quickly in many cases, this is a very important time to not get injured.
	Do not hurt yourself with your gear.
	And you've heard me say this many times.
	What we see happening quite a bit...
	Is because of unusual circumstances like a heavy snowstorm, a lot of people are out doing things that they don't normally do with equipment that they don't normally use.
	So you have to question, for example, Jeremy Renner, what was his level of experience with his snowplow?
	Or was he out of practice with it?
	You know, when was the last time he got on it?
	I don't know the answers to that, but these can be contributing factors.
	This is why if you fly an airplane and you're a pilot, you know, the FAA requires you to have annual training and testing in a certain number of hours and so on to remain current in that airplane because you'll lose your skill set if you don't use it.
	But during snowstorms or similar things, a lot of people go out and they start using things like chainsaws.
	Oh, you know, this tree.
	We've got to get rid of this tree.
	and they just go at it with a chainsaw without thinking about where their head is positioned over the chain or with their leg positioned underneath the log.
	Oh, that's – those of you who are ER doctors listening to this, you know that one, right?
	Somebody comes in, rip.
	Oh, what happened to the top half of your quadriceps right there?
	Yeah, it looks like it's been opened up.
	Pretty good there.
	Chainsaw injury, right?
	Yeah.
	I had my leg under the log and I was sawing through the log and then suddenly there was blood everywhere.
	So they see that a lot.
	And then the other one is when you're sawing with a chainsaw and you put your head over the chain and the log, as it sawed through, it pinches because the log, let's say, kind of collapses and it pinches and it kicks that chain, the whole chainsaw, The chain and everything up out of that log and whack right into your forehead so you get this vertical split right through your third eye.
	And all the ER docs out there have seen that one too.
	People show up.
	With the front of the forehead all cracked open, bleeding profusely because there's a lot of blood up there around the forehead area.
	But at least that kind of injury is usually not fatal.
	It's just incredibly embarrassing.
	But severing your femoral artery, now that's life-threatening.
	And that's the inside of your leg.
	So...
	Between your knees and running on the inside of your leg, up basically through your crotch area, that's the femoral artery.
	If you sever that, you can bleed out very, very quickly.
	So watch yourself out there, folks.
	If you're using saws, knives, equipment, anything heavy-duty, anything that you're not used to using, snowblowers and things like that, watch yourself.
	Be incredibly safety-conscious because this is not a time to show up in the hospital, With an injury, especially a life-threatening injury, I do not want to end up in the hospital, and I know you don't either, so be safe.
	Oh, and finally, just as a disclaimer, I do want to wish Jeremy Renner well, although I suspect this is a user error issue.
	And I also want to point out that if you don't put yourself in front of the tracks of a vehicle, it can't run over you.
	So don't put yourself in front of the tracks of a vehicle, of a tracked vehicle ever!
	And I follow that rule myself too, by the way.
	Like if I'm operating an excavator and the bucket is up in the air, I don't walk under the bucket.
	I walk around that sucker.
	You know why?
	Because the only thing holding that up is an intact hydraulic line.
	And if that line fails at the moment, I'm walking under the bucket.
	Oh, then there's a thousand pound bucket on my head.
	So why would I tempt fate?
	I walk around that bucket.
	Yeah, it's extra steps, but just get yourself out of the way of the equipment.
	Oh, also, before I move on, I should mention, you know, also people, they burn their houses down with candles and such.
	That's why I've always said, you know, people have teased me about the fire extinguishers, right?
	Because I'm always talking about how I've got fire extinguishers on hand and filming my videos and running things.
	And, you know, I run an alcohol stove.
	I was talking about that the other day.
	I had isopropyl alcohol in a stove kind of burner indoors.
	That's what I was doing during the freeze that just happened.
	And it worked out fine for me.
	But did I have fire extinguishers handy?
	Oh, you bet I did.
	Did I have that open flame near a bunch of curtains or carpet or anything?
	No.
	Absolutely not.
	People burn their houses down in the craziest ways.
	They'll light up candles, fall asleep, and their cat kicks over the candle, lights up the curtains, boom, it's over.
	You know, and then you're waking up to a fire alarm and smoke inhalation and trying to find Fluffy to get him out of the house.
	It's not a good picture.
	I saw a story recently of some catalytic converter thieves that got crushed by the catalytic converter.
	And died, apparently.
	So, which seems kind of karmically inspired, does it not?
	You know, these thieves are stealing a lot of catalytic converters from vehicles, part of the emissions system, and it has these rare earth metals in it.
	I think platinum is one of them.
	And so there's a lot of thefts of the catalytic converters happening right now.
	They crawl under your truck at night, you know, and they disassemble it and take the part and scramble away.
	Sometimes the part's too heavy and it just crushes them.
	And then you find them in the morning, the legs sticking out from the side.
	Oh, hmm.
	I wonder what happened here.
	Looks like gravity did some law enforcement.
	Amazing.
	All right, moving on.
	Although it would be fascinating to talk about all the crazy things people do, towing boats and so on, driving forklifts around.
	But we've got to move on.
	Here's a story from RT. Germany acknowledges the new normal of high energy prices.
	Yep.
	Finance Minister Christian Linder warned over the weekend that high energy prices will become a new reality in Germany.
	This is an interview with the Bild newspaper.
	He said that Berlin is facing the prospect of more expensive energy in the long term, even without having Russia's natural gas.
	So, quote, You're not going back to the way it was.
	Not in Germany, not across Europe.
	Energy is going to remain very expensive for, well, probably many years to come.
	And then here's a story from the Western Journal.
	NASA chief sounds the alarm.
	Chinese moon base may soon be over our heads.
	China's escalating space program could pose a national security concern for the United States.
	Especially as it relates to the moon.
	U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, who's a former NASA administrator, sounded the alarm.
	He's also a former astronaut.
	He said we're in a space race and China might seek a permanent presence on the moon.
	And he says, quote, and it is true that we better watch out.
	They don't get to a place on the moon under the guise of scientific research, said Nelson.
	Now, what we all need to understand is that the moon is the high ground.
	You know, it's easy for us Earthlings to think, oh, we're the big boys on the block, you know, we're the big planet, and that moon, that's a little rinky-dink thing out there.
	But actually, it's the other way around in terms of gravity wells.
	The moon is the high ground.
	The Earth is at the bottom of a gravity well.
	And from the moon, China or anyone can drop objects onto Earth, or small projectiles or large projectiles.
	And if they don't burn up in the atmosphere, which can be achieved with materials and so on, certain types of alloys, if they don't burn up in the atmosphere, they will, of course, acquire incredible velocity when they impact targets on Earth.
	So a weapon system on the moon would have a tremendous advantage It would be the ultimate high ground from which essentially every target on the surface of the Earth could be struck with high-velocity projectiles that would be almost impossible to interdict.
	Now, China says they hope to land astronauts on the moon by the end of this decade.
	And hey, maybe one day the United States will actually land astronauts on the moon.
	I say in jest because it's funny.
	It's funny that, you know, we supposedly went to the moon in the 1960s and early 70s and then never again.
	Like, what happened?
	How come we never went back?
	But whether or not you think that nations have put people on the moon, They can certainly put weapon systems on the moon, you know, remotely operated weapon systems and rovers and, you know, maybe high-powered lasers, who knows.
	But ultimately, kinetic weapons from the moon would be able to be dropped on strategic targets in the United States like the Hammer of Thor.
	Speaking of the Avengers, the Hammer of Thor.
	Hey, if you thought getting run over by a snowcat was bad, wait till you get hit by a high-velocity space rock launched from the moon, dropped out of moon orbit into Earth's atmosphere.
	That's not going to be a good day.
	And by the way, just from a physics point of view, just letting you know, I've thought about this problem a little bit.
	The best way to have weapons from the moon is not to launch them from the surface of the moon, but rather to nudge incoming Objects that might impact the moon, nudge them a little bit far in advance so that they go into a moon orbit, a relatively stable orbit, and keep them around for a while in those orbits until you want to launch them to a target on Earth.
	And then at that point, you nudge them with some thrusters.
	And based on gravity slingshot effects and timing and rotation and so on, you can hit targets on Earth with...
	I would think pretty good precision.
	Now, a lot of the space rocks would just explode in the atmosphere, which of course has happened a lot in Earth's history, but based on the density of the mineral content, you know, the geological artifacts of the rock, and based on atmospheric conditions and velocity and angle of entry and so on, certain rocks may be able to make it all the way to the surface of the Earth, as of course happens from time to time with meteorites.
	Or, you know, 66 million years ago, supposedly wiping out the dinosaurs, you know, big impacts, things like that.
	But anyway, the future of space combat on a planetary scale is going to be about actually capturing space rocks, controlling their orbits, and then putting them on trajectories that eventually collide with your intended target.
	And this whole process takes time.
	It's not a fast thing.
	It's slow.
	It can take months or years or at least weeks in advance to be able to nudge these rocks around and a lot of energy, a lot of thrusters.
	So it sure would be good if we had, I don't know, an advanced thrust type of technology, some kind of exotic system out there.
	Sure would be useful, right?
	Well, a lot of people think those systems already exist.
	We just haven't heard about them yet.
	So I guess we'll see.
	Okay, we're about to jump into the situation with Russia, and I'm going to bring in my first interview here shortly with Bob Griswold of Ready-Made Resources.
	But I want to mention first, there has been a Monday night football incident where a player of the Buffalo Bills Number three, DeMar Hamlin apparently collapsed.
	It looks like he was involved in a tackle, just a normal-looking tackle.
	And then at the end of the play, he stood up, and then he collapsed.
	And then they rolled an ambulance out, and there was prayers, and he had a, quote, cardiac event.
	And I think they canceled the game or suspended the game or something.
	It's not clear.
	But this looks like, it's kind of early, we don't know for sure, but it looks like another vaccine injury.
	And it looks like, you know, whoever watches Monday Night Football just got red-pilled.
	Like, oh my gosh, another athlete, you know, seemingly has had a cardiac event on live television where they couldn't cover it up.
	You know, they couldn't make this go away because it was live.
	And, of course, we hope the best for this player.
	Damar Hamlin.
	We hope he's okay.
	But athletes are dying in record numbers.
	And this person, by the time you hear this, he may already have passed.
	I hope not.
	I hope he's okay.
	But he may also be disabled and no longer able to play professional football.
	There was another football player, former NFL guard, Dead at 38 years old.
	This was reported by TMZ. Acute heart failure, it says.
	He used to play for the Jaguars.
	It's Yuchi Nwaneri.
	I think that's how you pronounce that.
	Jacksonville Jaguars offensive lineman.
	He was found unresponsive in his wife's Indiana home on Friday.
	He was only 38 years old.
	And couldn't be saved.
	There were no signs of life.
	And also no trauma, no foul play.
	So here's another football player.
	Of course, almost all these players have been vaccinated.
	Again, we don't know for sure if vaccines cause this, but it is the most likely explanation for what's happening with over a thousand professional athletes in the last year losing consciousness or dropping dead on the fields during the games across the United States but it is the most likely explanation for what's happening with over a So this is happening around the world everywhere that vaccines are being given.
	Now, there's been a new survey that just came out from Rasmussen.
	This is a shocking poll, and it shows that nearly half of Americans think that COVID-19 vaccines may be to blame for many unexplained deaths.
	And more than a quarter of those who responded to the survey say that someone they know could have been killed by these vaccines.
	So this was a national telephone and online survey, Rasmussen Reports, 49% of American adults believe it is likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths.
	So this is huge.
	And it also means that people are getting red-pilled that, just as I predicted, they can't cover up the deaths forever because everybody knows somebody who died after taking the vaccine or somebody who's disabled or severely injured or what have you.
	Now, as you may recall from my recent interview with Ed Dowd, There are 7,500 Americans every day that are either killed, that's about 2,500, or disabled, that's about 5,000, because of the vaccine.
	Again, 7,500 per day.
	Now, if you start removing 7,500 Americans per day from either the living or the labor pool, Sooner or later, people are going to notice.
	Like, hey, where's Bob?
	Where's Jane?
	What happened to the people that used to work here?
	Oh, they died.
	Died suddenly.
	Unexplained death.
	Cardiac event.
	Myocarditis.
	What's happening to all the athletes?
	Why are they dropping dead?
	Why are they losing consciousness?
	Supposed to be young and healthy.
	What's going on?
	You can't cover it up forever.
	Even though you try to control...
	I mean, if you're the CDC, you try to control the narrative and you engage in censorship on the tech platforms and they ban people like me, obviously.
	I can't post on YouTube or Facebook or anywhere.
	You're banned from the mainstream search engines and so on.
	They try to cover it up, but even then, half of the population believes that these vaccines are killing people.
	That is such a huge change in public awareness and getting red-pilled because just, let's say, five years ago, that number might have been less than 1% of Americans would think that vaccines are killing people.
	Even a few years ago, almost nobody believed that vaccines cause autism.
	Now it's like, oh, of course they are.
	And half the people believe these vaccines are killing people.
	So this is a sea change.
	This is a major pivot point in Americans' understanding of medicine and vaccines and science and so on.
	Now, it's interesting that we have played a role in this, right?
	You and I, because it was Dr.
	Jane Ruby and it was Richard Hirschman, the embalmer, who got me the clots that allowed me to do the microscopy.
	And to publish the first photographs of these clots taken under a microscope.
	And I did that live on the Alice Jones Show, by the way, you know, quite a while back here now.
	And that really woke a lot of people up and began, a lot of people began asking questions about the clots.
	And even recently, Steve Kirsch has been tweeting out my microscopy photos of the clots.
	And we have more coming, too, by the way.
	So thank you for your support in everything that we do, because it allows us to get the word out.
	And we are saving lives every day by helping people understand that they don't need to commit vaccine suicide.
	I mean, half the country now believes this.
	This is amazing.
	Now then, the Wall Street Journal just had a major story that's also a game-changer.
	The title is, quote, Are Vaccines Fueling New COVID Variants?
	This is by Alicia Finley.
	I'm not familiar with who this is, or Alicia Finley.
	I'm not sure how you pronounce it.
	But if you go down to paragraph 11, I believe, what this article says is absolutely shocking.
	In paragraph 11, here's the article from the Wall Street Journal.
	It says, quote, notably, workers who had received more doses, we're talking about the COVID vaccine, were at higher risk of getting sick.
	Those who received three more doses were 3.4 times as likely to get infected as the unvaccinated, while those who received two doses were only 2.6 times as likely.
	And the authors of the study noted, quote, this is not the only study to find a possible association with more prior vaccine doses and higher risk of COVID. That was written by the study authors.
	We still have a lot to learn about protection from COVID-19 vaccination, which I mean, that's an interesting quote.
	We have a lot to learn about protection from COVID-19 vaccination.
	In other words, we need to be protected against the vaccinations.
	I mean, and this is in the Wall Street Journal.
	So this is citing a study called Effectiveness of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 COVID-19 Bivalent Vaccine, which is a preprint that has just appeared in the MedRxiv publication.
	So here we have now even the Wall Street Journal essentially admitting that the more vaccines you take, The sicker you get, the more you get COVID, which is exactly what you and I are observing, is it not?
	I mean, I've taken none of these vaccines, and I'm rarely having any kind of symptoms, and even when I have over the last couple years, I beat it very quickly with, you know, in my case, I'm using chlorine dioxide and ivermectin, and it works for me.
	I can't recommend that for you.
	You get your own medical advice.
	That's what I use.
	Ha!
	I'm doing fine.
	And I'm not getting sick every two weeks like a lot of these vaccinated people.
	They are getting sick all the time.
	Have you noticed?
	They're in the hospital.
	They're at the doctor's office.
	They're coughing for months at a time.
	They are not healthy people.
	These vaccines are tearing up people's immune systems.
	Well, all by design, as you well know.
	So I'm just wondering, you know, how many football players have to die or pass out live on live TV? You know, how many workers have to die?
	Because it's, again, it's 2,500 Americans dying every day.
	You know, how many more statistics do we need before we can say, yeah, these vaccines are killing people?
	Because as I've often stated, if a brand of peanut butter were doing this, it'd be pulled off the market immediately, just from killing five people.
	But you kill 500,000 with a vaccine, and the FDA says it's safe and effective.
	I mean, it's more than 500,000, by the way, in America.
	There's more than a million Americans already killed by this vaccine.
	It's a million deaths, folks.
	And it's continuing every day.
	Okay, now I want to get into the news about Russia.
	And then we're going to bring in the interview with Bob Griswold.
	The sponsors for today are the Satellite Phone Store that you already know about, sat123.com.
	They have the Bivy Sticks, which is the satellite text messaging devices and the satellite phones.
	And they have the solar generators, which are the EcoFlow brand.
	They've got those in stock.
	So you can have backup power, and it's got a charge controller and an inverter and a lithium battery and so on.
	So check all that out at sat123.com.
	And then secondly, hoplightarmor.com, H-O-P-L-I-T-E, hoplightarmor.com, body armor that's designed in America by an American mechanical engineer and made in America.
	The polymers are actually made in America, and this is available at a discount.
	Use discount code RANGER. To save, I think it's 10% off all the body armor they have at hoplightarmor.com.
	Now, as always, keep it legal.
	Follow your local laws.
	I think it's illegal in New York, but I don't even think they'll ship to New York, by the way.
	But keep it legal and get ready for 2023.
	Get ready to save lives and protect yourself and family members and so on.
	So those are the sponsors for today.
	I also want to thank some of you who have already given us some feedback based on the telemedicine options that I mentioned yesterday.
	We're waiting to hear more feedback from our listeners here about your experiences with those two organizations that I mentioned.
	And based on that, I'll bring you updates on that in the days ahead.
	But thank you for, you know, participating in the pilot program and giving us your feedback.
	Oh, and of course, if you want to reach us, it's always situationupdateatprotonmail.com.
	All right.
	With that said, let's talk about Ukraine and Russia.
	So there was a large-scale HIMARS artillery attack against Russian recruits.
	That were in the Donetsk province, I believe.
	And this attack was carried out by the HIMARS, you know, American Supplied Weapon Systems with the HIMARS missiles and the HIMARS aiming and everything, all run by the U.S. or initially run by the United States, probably using U.S. satellite imagery and targeting intel and all kinds of stuff like that.
	So they used the HIMARS system to attack a barracks of Russian soldiers.
	So young Russian recruits sleeping in the barracks with an ammo depot apparently right there in the same building.
	That's always a bad idea.
	Don't sleep next to ammo depots in a war zone.
	But apparently hundreds of Russians have been killed.
	According to Ukraine...
	Something like 400 Russian soldiers were killed with hundreds more wounded.
	The official Russian response said that only 63 soldiers had been killed.
	So, of course, Russia is giving a lowball number, and Ukraine may be exaggerating the number.
	So it's probably, I would guess, 200 soldiers killed, which is still a significant number.
	That's my guess.
	Nevertheless, the HIMARS system is not good at striking hard targets, you know, bunkers, concrete reinforced targets and so on.
	But for soft targets such as barracks or wood buildings, that system is very effective.
	And in fact, this is a major failure on the part of Russia's air defense systems and also logistics and planning, because you shouldn't put hundreds of soldiers in one building with an ammo depot this close to the front lines where the HIMARS systems can reach you.
	There's a major failure on the part of Russia's military.
	But it's also part of the fog of war.
	There are going to be casualties on both sides of this conflict.
	But no matter what you think of the failures of whatever happened with Russia and how the NATO forces in Ukraine pulled this off, the thing that we need to keep in mind is that the response from Russia may be escalated because of this.
	Because this attack has a very high emotional toll on the Russian people, and it generated hundreds of casualties, which means a couple hundred Russian families have lost their young men in combat, and that's obviously very, very painful.
	Of course, the same thing is happening on the Ukraine side as well.
	So the escalation temptation on the part of Putin and his military leaders is going to be very, very strong.
	They're going to want blood, in other words, in retaliation for this.
	And the question is, what will that look like?
	Or will they have the discipline to hold off And wait until their major offensive is fully ready.
	Now, I believe that Russia is preparing a major offensive.
	In fact, it's clear to me that that's the case.
	And it's likely to take place in the first quarter of 2023 before the spring melt turns the fields of Ukraine into mud.
	So when the ground is frozen...
	Russia will strike sometime during that window, and they will move aggressively with force with a lot of missile strikes, and I believe they will inflict a tremendous number of casualties at that time, and that will likely then bring NATO troops and Polish troops directly into the war.
	Now, Germany is currently trying to sort of not anger Russia so much, like Germany is not providing tanks, for example.
	They do not want to be seen as providing main battle tanks or other large artillery pieces and so on.
	Because, of course, Germany is well within striking range of Russia's medium-range missiles, some of which can be thermobaric weapons, fuel air explosives, or they could be nuclear.
	And Germany doesn't want to see Berlin nuked.
	So Germany is not providing a lot of heavy equipment to Ukraine right now.
	But they are providing funding and other means of support.
	But it's NATO and the United States in particular that is providing a lot of the weapon systems, which is draining the weapon supply and the munitions supply domestically in the United States, which is something that China is no doubt watching very carefully.
	So the minute Russia attacks, we're going to see Joe Biden probably saying, OK, we have to declare war on Russia and it's time to go to war.
	You know, this is necessary for world peace and Russia is evil.
	How dare they attack other countries?
	Which is, of course, hilarious to hear the U.S. saying that because the U.S. is the empire that brutalizes other countries all over the world.
	You know, remember Hillary Clinton.
	We came, we saw, we killed him.
	You know, Libya, Gaddafi, Somalia, Iraq, Iran even.
	Throughout the years, how many countries has the United States viciously attacked by fabricating intel?
	Remember the yellow cake and all the Bush-era CIA nonsense to justify war with Iraq and to take out Saddam Hussein and all that?
	I mean, this is U.S. imperialism on display.
	So for the U.S. to claim that, oh, we need world peace and it's wrong to invade other countries and attack other countries, I mean, it's just laughable.
	Nevertheless, that's what's about to happen.
	But I want you to remember that Medvedev of Russia, in his 10 predictions for the new year that we read previously, one of those predictions was that the United States collapses into a civil war.
	And another prediction was that essentially the dollar collapses as the world's reserve currency and the financial transactions move into a China, Russia, India, BRICS nation type of currency system.
	It's interesting that the Russian defense minister believes these two things are going to happen.
	He may be correct about both things.
	I know he's correct about the BRICS thing.
	Not sure about the Civil War thing.
	But perhaps Russia knows something that we don't know yet about regime change in the United States, for example.
	Maybe because Russia is getting intel that's shared by China.
	And maybe China knows a lot about the Biden regime because China, of course, runs the Biden regime in many ways.
	So there are a lot of possibilities of You know, dramatic changes that could come all of a sudden.
	And I do think that we're going to be in a war with Russia.
	This is going to be a very costly affair, and it could set off a two-front war, because once we go to war with Russia, China is going to take notice, and China is probably going to attack the United States at that moment.
	So what I'd like to do now is bring in my first interview today, which is with Bob Griswold from readymaderesources.com.
	And I asked him about Russia and China and a little bit about America and power grid sabotage and things like that.
	So let's go to that interview, which is about 45 minutes in duration.
	And I'll be back with you on the other side to introduce the second interview, which is a shorter interview on a little bit different topic.
	But today's overall program is going to be quite lengthy.
	There's a lot to cover.
	But here we go with Bob Griswold.
	All Welcome, folks, to the featured interview for this evening.
	I have joining me Robert Griswold.
	He's the founder and CEO of ReadyMadeResources.com, and he's lived a life of incredible adventure and also knowledge and gaining information in many theaters around the world in many different contexts, some of which we can't talk about.
	So, Bob Griswold, I really honor your work.
	Thank you for all that you do.
	And also, I love your readymaderesources.com for night vision equipment, by the way.
	I'll just put that plug out there.
	But thank you for joining me.
	Mike, it's a pleasure to be here.
	You know, we fellowship so much offline.
	It's good to have some discussion online.
	You know, our views match up so similar.
	It's always that camaraderie among like-minded people that when you discuss things, you know, it's...
	It sharpens iron, sharpens iron.
	We encourage each other as we see that day approach.
	There's so many things we could say about how good and mutual friendships benefit one another.
	In fact, I think that's one of the critical elements today is to surround yourself with people You know, that are like-minded.
	When Abraham, the biblical patriarch Abraham, went to go rescue his nephew Lot, who had been kidnapped, he surrounded himself by 318 men who were trained in the art of war.
	Now, today I would say, you know, we have to be trained in the art of spiritual war because we are just seeing absolute evil Come across this earth unlike anything we've seen, I would say, since the days of Noah.
	Just pure, unmitigated evil.
	Jonathan Cahn just came out with a book, The Return of the Gods.
	And I think we're seeing that.
	In fact, about a month or so ago, I was reading The City of God by St.
	Augustine.
	And in there, he mentioned the fact that why Christians were so persecuted was the fact that they had forbid...
	In fact, they forbid the worship of the old pantheon of gods.
	And so whenever anything bad happened, you know, the Christians were blamed for it because you couldn't worship Zeus or Pan or the Baphomet, which Baphomet didn't exist back then, but all of it.
	And so we are seeing a replay of that today with things like COP27, the World Economic Forum.
	They are really deifying, creating a religion out of this.
	And you don't have to be religious to understand the impact religion can have on people.
	It's just a thing when we see people who have strong-held religious views.
	As a Christian, I believe I should do unto others As, you know, I would want them to do unto me or, you know, those types of things, that's going to affect how I treat people.
	But on the other hand, if you are worshiping these pagan deities whose core is perversion, you're going to have the Beyonce-Yaga clothing, showing kids in bondage.
	You're going to be doing all kinds of horrible things.
	And that's what we see coming back today.
	In fact, Jamie and I, Jamie Walden, you know, Omega Dynamics were talking about this today.
	How the resurgence of the Baphomet, and we saw that the Baphomet's origin came in the deity Pan.
	And, you know, from Pan, you know, I was doing some research the other night, and there's a lot of words that come from that.
	One is pandemonium and pandemic.
	And, you know, from the pandemic, we got panic, which is a root word of pan, and pandemonium.
	So we see the religious nature of what they're pushing on us.
	And this is all leading, as you've mentioned, from the massive destruction we see of the human race right now because of COVID injections.
	In fact, I was just reading a football player was in a game, NFL, and he just collapsed right there on the field.
	And I don't know what caused it, but we're just seeing this whole manifestation of this death cult trying to kill as many people as they can kill.
	Go ahead.
	Let me jump in.
	That happened a few hours ago from the time we're recording.
	Monday Night Football, Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin collapsed and appears to have had a cardiac event.
	We can only guess what might be causative behind that.
	We don't know for sure.
	But it looks like, you know, people are getting red-pilled in real time on Monday Night Football right now about what's going on.
	Well, they're being red-pilled everywhere.
	And the ones that aren't being red-pilled, we're taking our children.
	And I just can't believe this, that we are taking our children, parents seeing their children being emasculated, being, you know, with perversion.
	Our heritage, our children are being destroyed right in front of our face.
	And on top of all that, Mike, we are engaging and promoting a war cycle that the world has never seen before.
	This is what I want us to talk about, actually.
	Do you want to wrap up a thought there?
	And then I want to ask you about Russia and China.
	Okay, sure.
	You know, it's just, that's the thought I have, is that there is a spiritual, and like I said, you don't have to be religious to understand that people who hold spiritual beliefs will dramatically affect what they do in this world.
	And so I think we're seeing that play out right now.
	We saw it play out in the vaccine.
	We're seeing it play out with our children.
	And now we're seeing it play out with, you know, Yes.
	All right.
	Well, thank you for that context and background, because this is a spiritual battle far beyond the kinetic battle that we're facing as well.
	But let me bring it to the kinetic side of this.
	Ukrainian forces using HIMARS systems, you know, American provided HIMARS artillery systems and probably with American, you know, satellite locations and targeting intelligence and human as well.
	They were able to carry out an attack that killed apparently hundreds of Russian soldiers that were in a barracks on top of an ammunition depot.
	And, of course, rule number one, don't sleep on top of ammo depots in a war zone.
	Nevertheless, this is the kind of thing that might lead to a very strong escalation, and perhaps that's its intention.
	But I want to ask you, in your assessment, because you've been watching this kind of space for many years, what do you think is the intention of NATO in carrying out this attack?
	And what do you think Russia's response will be, if any, to this particular provocation?
	Well, it always boils down to money.
	I personally think that the reason we are going to war with Russia, Russia spends one-fifteenth of their budget on their defense that we do.
	So their defense budget is nowhere compared to what ours is.
	They really do not pose a threat to us.
	Going into the dumbass region, those people are ethnically Russian, they speak Russian, they worship in the Russian Orthodox Church.
	You know, self-determination is what freedom is all about, in my opinion, and what we're doing is provoking this man into doing something drastic.
	He had to prevent this.
	You know, we promised him when Russia fell that we would not extend NATO membership to any of the former Eastern Bloc countries.
	So at one side of our mouth, we were promising that, and out of the other side of the mouth, we were offering the NATO membership into the former Eastern Bloc countries, Poland being one of them.
	And so, you know, we need to learn the lessons from World War II. This is precisely what Adolf Hitler did.
	And you have to remember, In the Russians' collective memory, that is still there.
	How Adolf Hitler signed a peace treaty, a peace pact with Russia, and at the same time he was moving his troops into Poland on the whole western front of Russia.
	And, you know, eventually Operation Barbarossa happened and he invaded Russia.
	And, you know, it cost the lives of 20 to 30 million Russians.
	This is exactly what we're doing.
	We are surrounding Russia on the Western Front with NATO armies, NATO missiles, NATO soldiers, and we don't think that they don't understand this lesson of history.
	They do.
	And so it's a provocation of extreme degree.
	But let me ask you, you mentioned the difference in the military budgets between the U.S. and Russia, and that's absolutely true.
	However, doesn't Russia have...
	Far more advanced missiles and hypersonic missiles, the Kinzhal missiles, and also ICBMs with multiple reentry vehicles and evasive maneuvers upon reentry.
	Russia doesn't have much of a navy, but they sure are strong on the missile front, are they not?
	Absolutely.
	And this is the danger of it.
	Because, you know, it's just like, you know, a police officer.
	If you have a 230-pound, you know, beefy guy police officer, and he's going to arrest somebody, he has a lot of tools he can use before he has to pull his gun out and shoot that person.
	Correct?
	I mean, you know, there's a lot of strength, a lot of techniques he can use.
	So he doesn't have to go from basic verbal commands to lethal force in one step.
	Right.
	So the same thing's true, what we're seeing here.
	We are trying, Russia has, you know, they have a lot of high-tech weapons that can cause a lot of destruction.
	Their equipment in between doesn't give them the capability of doing intermediate weapons.
	You know, escalation of force.
	And so when they go to the next level of force, they have to go like, say, a 98-pound police officer who's facing, you know, some big guy.
	He doesn't have the physical capability probably to deal with that, and then he has to go to lethal force immediately.
	So there's a jump in force, a dramatic jump in force because of the nature of your opponent.
	And that's what we're facing right now.
	There's going to have to be a dramatic jump in force because Putin doesn't have the same technology we have as far as ground warfare, but he does have advanced technology, hypersonic torpedoes that could sink aircraft carrier, hypersonic missiles that could sink, you know...
	Put down a Gerald-class Ford aircraft carrier.
	That would be a provocation.
	The United States government would have to escalate.
	And that's the whole thing we're seeing right now is escalation after escalation after escalation.
	In fact, Mendeves said the other day he gave us 10 points.
	Well, the takeaway from that is not the individual 10 points.
	The takeaway from it is the fact that he is outlying a, he sees a civil conflict coming and a financial conflict coming.
	That's what that boils down to.
	Yes, yes.
	And the West knows this, so they're having to expand.
	And I think part of what we're doing in Russia is Russia is so rich in timber, uranium, gold, gas, all that.
	We want to open it up so that multinational corporations can go on there like they've done everywhere on the planet and exploit Russian assets for not the Russian people, but for multinational corporations.
	You remember we did that in Iran in the 1950s.
	British oil company wanted Iranian oil.
	So we went in and overthrew the legitimate government of Iran, installed the Shah of Iran, and we know what happened.
	That worked out so well.
	Great.
	Yeah.
	And so this is what we're seeing going on.
	There's always a money, and that's what we're seeing.
	Two financial systems coming to head, and one of them will become dominant.
	You have a BRICS system, and you have a G20 system, and the United States is going to do everything in its power to maintain dollar supremacy.
	Well, look, look.
	Okay, let me ask you two things on this because right now it looks like the BRICS system has the momentum because we've seen the Saudis naming China as their priority trading partner.
	We've seen I don't know, 80, 90, 100 plus nations signing on to systems related to BRICS or new global reserve currency types of systems that may be announced next year.
	And at the same time, look at the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
	Doesn't that prove to the world that the U.S. military is at the leadership level inept?
	I don't mean that at the soldier level, but the leadership is inept and incapable of defending America, incapable of really I'm executing a war with a sense of sanity.
	Again, just the leadership.
	I'm not criticizing the soldiers.
	Absolutely.
	But go ahead, yes.
	Well, look at Vietnam.
	Same thing.
	Look at Iraq.
	Same thing.
	Look at Libya.
	Same thing.
	Look at Afghanistan.
	Same thing.
	I mean, it's a pattern.
	So, you know, we go into a nation, spend enormous amounts of treasure and, you know, lives, and then we leave it.
	We left $82 billion to God knows what those weapons are going to do, but we know they're not just going to sit there and rust.
	That's too big a nest egg for somebody not to go after.
	That's why we talked about maybe Victor Boot.
	He was released so he could go in there and broker a lot of those deals because he knows all the players that would want those weapons.
	And to move them in any substantial manner he has the ability to move them.
	But somebody like him will move them.
	Same thing in Ukraine.
	I think, you know, we're going to eventually Afghanistan, Ukraine, after we've spent enormous treasure.
	And, you know, we will back out because we're not going to risk nuclear war, at least, you know, willingly risk it.
	We want to spend money there.
	We want to launder money, FTX. It was a, you know, democratic laundering machine.
	And so, but the unknown element, just like in World War I, you know, Archduke Ferdinand, nobody thought that would lead to the death of 10 to 15 million people, an assassination.
	It was the unknown, you know, element in that war that just, it swept the whole world into it.
	Same thing in World War II. World War II should never happen because the Treaty of Versailles so restricted Germany from recovering from the war that it gave rise to Adolf Hitler, and we know how that ended.
	And right now we're doing the same thing That we did in the Treaty of Versailles to Germany, we're doing it to Russia, giving Vladimir Putin very little option.
	Day by day, we keep circling him and circling him in, putting Patriot missiles in country, which, you know, I think it's just symbolism, because I don't know if the Ukrainians could really use those things.
	There's a lot of training behind them.
	And what would they use them for?
	You know, you're not going to use a $4 million missile to shoot down a $400,000 drone.
	Well, hey.
	I mean, as long as there's money to be made, they may use it for that.
	But what about the thermobaric weapons that Russia has?
	You know, the...
	The mushroom cloud-like weapon systems, but of course they're non-radioactive.
	I know you're familiar with these.
	I'm just describing them to the audience.
	Absolutely.
	We've used them in the theater of war.
	This is the thing, Mike.
	When the dogs of war are let out, you do not know.
	History teaches us this.
	You do not know where it is going.
	Again, the example is World War I. Nobody had a clue.
	You know, you would have trench warfare, millions of artillery shells because the technology was just brand new, you know, high explosive artillery.
	And nobody knew that the devastation that war was going to cause.
	And same thing with World War II. Nobody had a clue the devastation that war was going to cause by the time it was over with.
	And, you know, one step led to the other.
	I mean, the Japanese horribly miscalculated America's response to it.
	And it ended up with nuclear weapons going off in their country because they underestimated it.
	I think we, in our hubris and in our ignorance of history, just look at what we've done since Vietnam.
	We've lost every war we've been in.
	We've left countries in horrible shambles.
	We've killed an enormous amount of non-combatant people, collateral damage, and we've just left the place in a mess.
	Today, ISIS has taken back over Afghanistan.
	The restrictions on women learning, you know, all the Islamic codes have come back.
	And so what did we do there?
	Nothing.
	We left a lot of lives and a lot of weapons there.
	That's what we did.
	And, you know, I'm afraid that's the same thing we're going to do in Ukraine.
	But, you know, we're not dealing with just in Afghanistan.
	We're dealing with a superpower that has seven to eight thousand nuclear weapons.
	Yeah, this is not something you want to play around with.
	Now, look, last question for you on Russia, and then I want to move over to China.
	But on Russia, here we are, early 2023.
	Do you think that this year, number one, will the war end there?
	But secondly, will Russia launch a major new offensive against Ukraine?
	No.
	I think Vladimir Putin's survival depends on launching an offensive.
	He has to keep this up.
	And, you know, this is the danger because we know he has to keep it up.
	And so we're going to keep provoking and provoking and provoking until something happens, the unknown element happens, which none of us can predict.
	But an unknown element would happen.
	We have to keep in mind that when Ukraine fell, there were 5,000 nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
	I think there were 3,000 tactical and 2,000 strategic nuclear weapons.
	You're talking about in 1991?
	Yes.
	There is no chain of custody that I know of for those nuclear weapons of any credible nature.
	Russia supposedly took them all back, but anybody who would believe that, you know, You're smoking something that you shouldn't be smoking because, you know, those weapons were too valuable on the black market.
	The Chinese, maybe, you know, the United States government would have interest in taking them because if we had one of those nuclear weapons that ever went off, it would leave a Russian signature with a plutonium or uranium.
	That's right, yeah.
	So you could blame them for it.
	So to think that the chain of custody and those weapons is complete is, I think, very, very naive.
	And so there's a lot of unknown elements there.
	You know, the United States has been cooking up some of the worst biological stuff we can only imagine.
	There's rumors that they've been using human experimentation on those bioweapons labs there.
	And so we just don't know.
	Something could get loose.
	Something could be detonated.
	And overnight, tomorrow morning, We would wake up with a whole different problem on our hand.
	And that's always the nature of war.
	And they know it.
	Yeah, I'm glad you mentioned that.
	It's the war black swan.
	You can't predict it.
	You can't plan for it because you don't know what it could be.
	All right.
	In the interest of time, and also want to give you the courtesy here of asking about your business, readymaderesources.com.
	How's the night vision industry looking right now, Bob?
	Well, you know, we've re-inventoried.
	In fact, we have a pretty good deal going on right now.
	You know, if you buy a white foster unit, I think...
	Yeah.
	If you buy something like this right now, it's White Foster.
	They're rated by figure of merit.
	So we're upgrading free.
	Anybody buys a 2,400 figure of merit night vision, we're upgrading it to a 2,600 FOM figure of merit night vision for absolutely no additional cost.
	So just mention that, you know, and go to ready-made resources, see the deal, and if you want to buy it.
	Now, what about thermal?
	What's the best thermal spotting scope or monocular that you currently have?
	Well, you know, I use IR Hunter by Trijicon.
	I really enjoy Trijicon.
	Now, Trijicon's towards the higher end.
	You know, anything, you know, really gives you an advantage.
	So even like a FLIR Scout Would be a very good FLIR Breach.
	You know, that's in the $2,000 price range.
	But anything that you have that gives you that force multiplication, because for most people, you know, night vision or thermal is going to give you a force multiplication unlike anything else you can afford.
	Obviously, you can't afford an Apache attack helicopter.
	Yeah.
	Well, wait a minute.
	Now, if we go to Afghanistan, we might be able to find one on the cheap.
	Yeah, and the other thing is, you know, radio.
	It is absolutely, you know, I think night vision and radio are the absolute perfect marriage between technologies because, you know, being able to get local intelligence, hear what's going on in your area, being able to transmit information, And knowing how to use radio tactically, that's why our friends at BrushBeater, you know, brushbeater.org, really teach some very, very good classes on how to use your radio effectively.
	But those are two things that we really promote highly.
	Everybody, you know, everybody knows that you need to get food, you need to get a water filter, you know, some medical supplies.
	But I think people are afraid of radio for one reason.
	There's a learning curve to it.
	And so a lot of people just ignore it.
	But I think it's really a thing if you ignore it to your own peril because there's a lot of things you can do with radios that we can't talk about.
	Okay, well that's true.
	But let me tell you, you know what I love about night vision and thermal devices like the kind that you sell?
	What I love is they don't check in with the cloud.
	They don't need updates to function.
	You turn them on, they function.
	They don't Just reboot with a blue screen of death.
	They're reliable.
	You fire them up, they work.
	Now, you can software update some of them if you wish to over time for more reticles and things like that, but otherwise, you turn it on, it works.
	Yeah, and you know, again, what's it worth?
	At night, which, you know, half the day is night, so you're combat ineffective or ineffective for seeing bad guys if you can't, you know, at night.
	So night vision gives you that capability of being able to see out hundreds of yards and effectively deal with it, deal with the problem.
	So, you know, we know what's coming.
	You know, I personally think these power outages are state-sponsored.
	You know, I don't think it's Billy Bob with his, you know, Pitbull's AR-15 doing this.
	I think, you know, we're meddling in parts of the world.
	And, you know, it's the David and Goliath thing, an asymmetrical warfare.
	And, you know, I can't believe the government called, gosh, they called that incident in Washington and just happened a burglar.
	A burglar?
	A burglar.
	That's great.
	Yeah, I mean, they know what it is.
	You know, They've even dropped the Billy Bob route because I think they realize these are nationwide and coordinated attacks.
	And the two elements really that build America's infrastructure are electricity and communication.
	Those go down and the world changes immediately.
	Okay, well, let me just add, if that guy's a burglar, then the male prostitute at the Pelosi house is a tourist.
	Yeah, well, that's what he was.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Anyway, readymaderesources.com, folks, if you want to look at night vision and thermal scopes and so on.
	And definitely a very reliable source there for that.
	Now, Bob, let's go on to China because Forward Observer, Mike Shelby, who we're inviting for an interview today, Put out an update recently talking about his team believes that China may move on, I think, a naval embargo type of posture against Taiwan in a little over 30 days, which seems really aggressive.
	What are your thoughts on China and Taiwan right now?
	Yeah.
	I showed you I've been to China quite a few times.
	I've been to China, Taipei, Taiwan, and Hong Kong quite a few times.
	I've done a lot of business there, and I've had dinner with some pretty important people there.
	I'm not going to go into too much of it, but we were talking about this one night and over dinner and some Chinese vodka.
	Don't even ask how good that was.
	Don't buy it.
	Never buy it.
	Okay.
	But anyhow, you know, this person who was, you know, pretty high official said, you know, us, you know, meddling in Taiwan, the Chinese look at it as though we are having an affair with their wife.
	So they really put in a high emotional capital on what we're doing.
	Okay?
	That was probably the most sobering statement I heard because, I mean, you know, we all know what we would do if we came home and somebody was molesting our wife.
	You know, we would not take it lightly.
	You know, violence would probably occur.
	And so, you know, this is how the Chinese look at it.
	And at the same time, you know, we have in China a microchip plant that produces 60% of the world's microchips, the nanotechnology microchips, that China desperately wants to get a hold of that technology.
	You're talking about in Taiwan.
	Yeah, in Taiwan, excuse me.
	In Taiwan, they desperately want to get a hold of that technology.
	And, you know, if...
	A war does happen.
	I sent you that, just the shipping traffic that goes through the Straits of Taiwan there.
	You know, that all would be interrupted if you have an amphibious assault coming from the mainland of Taiwan.
	And there's thousands of ships that go through there.
	You know, Taiwan only has 30 days of oil.
	What are they going to do?
	Pull tankers in there?
	Super tankers?
	What insurance company is going to allow a super tanker to pull into a war zone so they can offload fuel for Taiwan?
	That would be a strategic target.
	There's no way.
	And so Taiwan would have a very limited time to be able to fight a battle to keep their planes in the air, their ships and their tanks and all the military hardware that needs fuel around.
	They would have a very short window to do that.
	And if that plant that produces those microchips went down for any reason, and I think we'd destroy it before we'd allow it to fall into Chinese hands, that would knock off 15%.
	They're saying about 15% off our GDP. That's unbelievable.
	That's huge.
	That's equivalent to like a natural disaster on a huge...
	You know, Amazon and Google going out of business.
	You know, just disappearing.
	And Walmart, too.
	But what about...
	Do you think the U.S. Navy has the capability to, or even the willingness, to fight that embargo and try to keep some shipping lanes open for Taiwan?
	In other words, I mean, that would put the U.S. in direct conflict in a naval battle with China.
	And then let's go back to the other thing.
	That happens, and then I think the whole game in Russia changes too.
	Exactly.
	Let's learn from history here, people.
	You know, You know, when Japan saw that Hitler declared war on the United States after Pearl Harbor, that was the best thing, the best news they had received, because all of a sudden it made U.S. fighting a two-front war.
	Right.
	We could easily find ourselves in that situation.
	Again, this is history.
	This isn't Bob Griswold making this up.
	Just get your history book out and read what happened.
	We found ourselves fighting this multi-front war, which it took us years to equip ourselves to do it.
	And in this day and age, because of the way supply chains work and the speed of warfare, we don't have years to rebuild a navy or years to rebuild an army.
	We don't have it.
	And then, you know, recruiting...
	If we had to put troops in Russia and had to send troops to China, we all know the recruiting problems we have right now.
	The U.S. Army can't meet its own quotas.
	Americans, the fentanyl, the obesity problems, the psychological problems in this country, we might not have the army to be able to fight that.
	Nor the munitions.
	What about the munitions?
	They're shipping everything to Ukraine, and it takes years to rebuild the anti-tank weapons and the artillery rounds, especially the guided rounds and so on.
	I mean, it's like five to ten years out.
	Well, exactly.
	And I know they've tried to address that, but it is five to ten years out before we can start making microchips again here.
	But, you know, we might not have that long.
	You know, you have to ask yourself the question, why is China building an army that has land capability so it can go ashore?
	They're building an amphibious force that can go ashore.
	They're building a light tank that they can easily be transported.
	They have a main battle tank that's really a third-generation tank.
	Very, very good tank.
	Probably as good as ours, reactive armor, 125mm, smoothbore, computer-driven, the whole thing.
	They have that tank.
	They have that DF-17 missile, hypersonic missile, I think 7,000 miles an hour.
	Could we shoot that down?
	And it's specifically designed to take out a carrier.
	But China is lacking in carriers themselves, however.
	And I think a couple of their carriers are old refurbished Russian ships, aren't they?
	They're currently trying to build four modern aircraft carriers right now, and they're supposed to be online by 2035.
	Now, I don't think there'll be that much time to do it.
	But also keep in mind, what has China built out in the desert?
	They have built mock-ups of our aircraft carriers and other ships that they're using for bomb runs.
	That's right.
	Yeah, so I mean, why do you do that?
	Intelligence is why.
	Why are they doing this?
	What's the purpose?
	You know, you always want to come to the answer.
	That kind of narrows it down a bit for me.
	I mean, you don't build those kind of things unless you're planning on doing something.
	And they don't need necessarily a lot of aircraft carriers because they're dealing with Taiwan, which is very close.
	So unlike the United States, which would have to project power across the Pacific Ocean, they just project power across the Strait of Taiwan.
	Let me throw this into the mix, because I talked to some of my people in Taiwan, and they say that with the recent elections in Taiwan, the KMT, the Kuomintang, has taken over most of the politics, took it away from the DPP. The DPP being more nationalistic and isolationist, the KMT wants to reunify with China, and a lot of the younger generation in Taiwan now, they are pro-unification.
	I don't even, how can you even think that?
	If you look at Hong Kong, look what happened.
	All the promises that China made were broken.
	You know, oh, you're going to have your own court system.
	No, you're not.
	Actually, we're going to arrest you if you don't toe the line.
	But isn't China, on one hand, looking at Taiwan right now and thinking, hey, if we just stay the course, we're going to get Taiwan to reunify anyway, without a war.
	Well, the financial motivation is there to reunify.
	Business wants to open back up because there's a lot of restrictions on Taipei doing business with Beijing.
	And it would greatly increase their economy if they could start trading with China again.
	So business has a vested interest to at least You know, increase those business ties between Beijing and Taipei.
	And so there's a lot of dynamics.
	We'll never hear it here in the United States because we only get one flavor, you know, horrible Chinese, good Taiwan.
	Same thing, you know, horrible Russians, good Ukrainians.
	It's always the same stuff we receive in this country.
	But there is a movement in Taipei that wants to at least economically reunite with China.
	And then once that would happen, you know, if you economically reunited with China, It's a foregone conclusion what is going to happen.
	But the big thing is that microchip plant.
	If the Chinese get that, United States would be in a stranglehold.
	All of our defense missiles and weapons and air carriers and planes and TVs and cars and all that, that's where our chips come from.
	And we would be absolutely in a dire strait very, very quickly.
	So we'd have two choices.
	Destroy the plant so the Chinese couldn't get the technology, or let the Chinese get the technology and cut us off.
	Well, the poison pill approach destroying the plant is, I mean, that's devastating because those plants can't be reconstructed overnight.
	And I understand that even in the U.S. there are efforts underway right now to try to build some of these plants down to the, I think, one nanometer transistor scale.
	And that tech is very difficult.
	But those plants, I think, are five to six years out even right now.
	Well, they are.
	And you remember the whole Pelosi insider trading stock deal.
	When they voted all that money, you know, Paul Pelosi bought a bunch of stock right before they voted on spending all that money to build a plant in the United States.
	Yeah, they're going to build it, but it's going to take at least five years, maybe closer to eight to ten years to get it online, or it's up to speed in production.
	That puts pressure on Beijing to act before that, because that is an extreme point of leverage to gain control of that factory.
	Well, it also seems like once Russia launches an offensive against Ukraine, which seems very likely, that shortly after the United States declares war against Russia and enters western Ukraine with probably Polish troops, for example, then China would have every incentive to say...
	This is the moment.
	We strike now while America is facing that two-front war that you mentioned.
	Even if China doesn't feel like it's fully ready, for example, with aircraft carriers, you go to war with what you have, right?
	And how could they not see that as a once-in-a-generation, quote, opportunity to hit America when America is vulnerable?
	Precisely, and let's not stop there.
	Pakistan and India, because Pakistan would side with China and Russia.
	India, probably the United States.
	Iran, Saudi Arabia, Israel, the Koreas.
	You know, you could easily see this escalate way out of control.
	Oh yeah, involving Japan and Australia as well.
	I mean, Japan...
	It has got some tech that hasn't been made public too.
	Yes.
	To fight the Chinese.
	Between the Chinese and Japanese.
	I've been in Nanjing.
	You've read the book, The Rape of Nanjing.
	Just on the street, just talking with people.
	And a lot of people there do speak English.
	Just asking them about what their feelings were concerning that.
	They still hate the Japanese.
	The Japanese never apologized, according to them.
	You know, and so there's still a lot of animosity between those two countries.
	Well, Poland is still suing Germany for reparations from World War II, come to think of it, right?
	Yeah, exactly.
	I mean, there's a lot of human suffering.
	You know, and, you know, our reaction was the most illogical reaction when Putin went into Ukraine.
	It's almost like we cut our own hand off to spite ourselves.
	You know, we're not going to buy your oil anymore.
	What happened?
	Yeah.
	I mean, we're not going to buy your products anymore.
	What happened?
	It wasn't the smartest move in the world.
	We cut our own production off, and then we cut Russian production off, and the only people it really hurt were people in the United States.
	Well, the same thing could happen very, very quickly with that microchip plant.
	We could find ourselves in a real world of hurt very quickly.
	If we did something stupid, I personally wonder if the Biden administration would respond to it.
	I don't know.
	I just don't know.
	See, that's the other question.
	Is there any willingness in this administration, which I believe is compromised by China, But also our Pentagon leadership, which, you know, I mean, look at Darth Vader himself there at the head of the Pentagon, former weapons contractor guy.
	His interests are clear.
	He just wants to sell more weapons.
	Seems like nobody actually wants peace for the people of Earth, you know?
	Just to leave people alone, let people have farms and families.
	Yeah, that goes back to the spiritual nature.
	We're doing the death cult.
	The angel of death is flying over this world right now, and it doesn't look well.
	I mean, I just wake up every morning, Mike, and just wonder, is today the day?
	Because, you know, this world is in the worst situation, I think, and probably that I can remember historically.
	Not only do we have what we consider a low-level civil war going on in the United States right now, we have two factions that are absolutely irreconcilable.
	I can't reconcile with people who want to emasculate children, who want to destroy the Constitution, who want to destroy our history, who want to open our borders so that fentanyl and sex traffickers can come across I can't reconcile with those people.
	I'm in a philosophical war with them right now.
	And they're in a philosophical war with us right now.
	And so we have this internal conflict in the country to begin with.
	We have saboteurs running around, you know, testing our infrastructure.
	And then we're already in a one-front war right now.
	And then, you know, we get into a two-front war.
	And then possibly, you know, a lot of other conflicts start.
	And we could find ourselves in a very, very dangerous position.
	Where you could have a large, multi, multi-millions of people killed very quickly.
	Well, I think your assessment is correct.
	And we are in treacherous waters right now.
	And anything could be triggered here that could involve us in not just a global war, but a global supply chain collapse.
	Again, look, did you see that map I sent you of the Straits of Taiwan, the shipping track?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I mean, that shipping traffic would not go through there during a war.
	If Beijing were moving troops across there, that shipping traffic would stop.
	Just imagine the catastrophic nature that would have throughout the entire world if, you know, Beijing, which makes so much of the stuff the world uses, that stopped.
	And again, you know, Taipei only has 30 days worth of oil.
	This is the time for sober people to make sober decisions.
	If you want to continue being entertained, and you know, I always love that quote, where entertainment increases, civilization decreases.
	If you want to be that person who's just entertained and entertained and entertained and not take this very seriously, you could find yourself in a very bad situation.
	I think those that are smart are really positioning themselves right now with, you know, learning skills, learning the radio, learning the art of defense.
	You know, I told you my wife just passed her fourth Dan Blackbelt.
	You know, I mean, you know, yeah, fourth degree Blackbelt.
	That's amazing.
	Awesome, I'm very proud of her.
	Or you're learning radio, or you're learning gardening, or you're learning numerous other skills, auto mechanics, how to build things, how to fix things.
	If you're doing that right now, you're positioning yourself for when this collapse and these wars happen, that you have a much better chance of survival.
	If you've stored some food, maybe some water, obviously water filtration is key.
	If you're doing those things right now, you're going to be in a very good position.
	If you're surrounding yourself with good men and women, you know, a good report who are the same mindset as you, That you want to prepare and get things ready and you want to be multi-trained.
	You know, you might not be the best medic in the world, but you know how to stop, you know, blood flow.
	You know how to do basic medic.
	Yeah.
	Because you've taken a course.
	You might not be the best radio operator in the world, but you know how to use the radio for different things, triangulation, signal finding, signal jam.
	And when we interviewed Jamie Walden, you know, he talked about the faith havens and we got a huge response from people about that concept.
	So we're going to have Jamie back on.
	About that, because people want to seek out like-minded individuals who they can rely on during these times.
	And we are seeing a huge demographic movement in this country right now.
	Tennessee, the state I'm in, is having a huge influx of people getting out of blue states.
	They want to come here because Tennessee is a very good state.
	I really love the state.
	And we're a very free state.
	And so people are fleeing those states and they're coming and they realize, you know, people that have never homesteaded before are buying 10, 20 acres and learning how to homestead.
	So we do see this happening.
	There is some glimmer of hope.
	But, you know, for the major of city dwellers and those types of people who just are just seeking entertainment, it's going to be a very bleak day for them.
	You know, dark days ahead for those people.
	Okay, well, I think you've summarized it nicely.
	Doom, if you're unprepared, but also if you are informed and well-prepared, we can navigate through this.
	And that's been my message, too, this whole time.
	Kind of an optimistic message, but realistic.
	It doesn't have to be doom and gloom for us.
	No, I mean, it'll be hard.
	And, you know, hard times make strong men.
	That's what they say.
	You know, good times make weak men.
	That's what we're seeing happening right now, weak men.
	But as we enter those hard times, those men who have that in them, the men and women that have that nature in them, will become stronger.
	Because it'll refine us.
	You know, I do some metallurgy, and when I'm smelting something, there's always that stuff you have to scoop off the top, the slag, because it's impurities in the metal when you're melting it.
	And that's what will happen in hard times.
	Draw, slag, whatever you want to call it, it comes to the top and, you know, it's taken out and it refines.
	And so I think there will be a great refining of those people who want to do the right thing and are preparing to do that by, you know, learning different skills and storing and just their associations.
	I think that's what's going to happen.
	So, you know, we're going to see we are going to see some very, very difficult times, though.
	Okay, well, we'll wrap it up there, Bob.
	I want to thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.
	I think your analysis is excellent.
	I want to give out your website again, readymaderesources.com for night vision and thermal vision, another kind of survival hardware supplies as well.
	Anything else you want to add, Bob?
	That's it.
	You know, if anybody wants to call me, you can call me at 800-627-3809.
	I do help people do retreat planning.
	I mean, you know, because it does vary.
	The age of people in the retreat, the geographic location, the political atmosphere of the area, and just to make a...
	And then always the budget.
	What size is your budget?
	So I can help direct you so you don't spend money uselessly or, you know, wastefully on things that you don't need or that won't work for you in your particular application.
	Okay, that's great to know.
	Can you give out that number one more time?
	800-627-3809.
	Okay, yeah, and if any of you listening are brand new to this and you're moving out of the city and about to move into a rural area to Homestead or what have you, get good information from people like Bob Griswold here because it'll save you 10 years of mistakes.
	And a lot of money.
	Yeah, true.
	A lot of money, too.
	I mean, there are things I would have...
	If I could go back 10 years, I would have done very differently from...
	You know, you learn it the hard way.
	You learn through experience, but sometimes you don't have time for that.
	Yes.
	Okay.
	Well, thank you so much.
	Thank you for having me, Mike.
	Thank you very much.
	Absolutely.
	It's an honor, Bob.
	Have a great evening.
	Thank you for joining me.
	And for those of you watching, as always, feel free to repost this interview on your own channels or other platforms.
	You have our permission.
	So thank you for listening.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon.com.
	Take care.
	Alright, so I hope that you found that as valuable as I did.
	Bob Griswold is very knowledgeable, and he has a good, solid analysis of world events, and he understands the way that military types think.
	He understands how the Let's say the puppet masters pull the strings of proxy states and how power is really wielded across this planet.
	So very valuable information there from Bob.
	Now that means, I think, on a practical level, we all need to be prepared.
	We all need to get ready for the possibility of World War III to break out this year.
	And there's also a possibility then that it goes nuclear.
	And I don't know what, if you were to put a percentage on that, I don't know, is it...
	25% possibility?
	I'm not sure.
	But I am sure about something different, which is a supply chain crisis.
	I'm 75% sure that we're going to have a supply chain crisis with China at some point, either this year or next year.
	It just depends on when China decides to try to embargo Taiwan.
	But when that day comes, the supply chain will be just toast at that point.
	So get prepared for that.
	Now, our second interview here coming up is with David Wilcock, who is, he was featured a lot on the History Channel and Ancient Civilizations, and he's got a lot of knowledge about apocalypse events in Earth's history.
	He knows a lot about the megaliths.
	He knows about ancient civilizations and the precession of the Earth and dating ancient artifacts using, well, astronomical and The mythos of astrological phenomena.
	And anyway, he could talk about all of these things with quite a bit of knowledge.
	So I'm going to do a longer form interview with him later on, but he agreed to come on for just a quick 15 minute update about the comet impact theory, which is the Graham Hancock.
	Well, Graham Hancock is not the only one, but he's the famous investigator slash journalist with the Netflix special.
	And Graham Hancock is the author of Fingerprint of the Gods and Magicians of the Gods, both of which I've read excellent books.
	But I wanted to get David Wilcox take on that because Wilcox believes that there is a solar flash explanation that we need to consider in addition to a comet impact theory.
	So we're going to jump into that theory.
	And then I do want to mention that we're also scheduling one of the scientists from the looks like the comet research group, not yet confirmed, but it's looking good.
	Anyway, we're trying to get some folks on from the Comet Research Group, some published scientists, to share data with us about that impact event, which I believe the main one was believed to have taken place around 12,800 years ago and would have resulted in the collapse of the pre-civilization or, you know, the civilizations at the time.
	And it's interesting.
	I've had some reaction from a few listeners who are critical of any of these theories because they don't align with the biblical time scale or time progression that Adam was the very first.
	And I think a lot of people date the Bible as just a few thousand years ago.
	And I've had people tell me there couldn't have been humans 12,800 years ago.
	So that's interesting that this discussion is colliding with some people's biblical view, but I think that God and God's creation is fully compatible with the idea that, in fact, humans and prehistory civilizations have been around for a very long time and have suffered the same fate that we may be suffering here soon as well, because I think it's about the cycles of the rise and fall of human civilizations.
	God created a very big cosmos with a lot of possibilities in it, and there are apocalyptic events that are repeated that keep taking out ancient civilizations, such as Atlantis, which is not just a myth.
	Atlantis was a real place, probably now underwater.
	It was a real place with real advanced technology.
	And there is scientific evidence or archaeological evidence and artifacts and so on that points to the existence of these ancient civilizations.
	In fact, it is irrefutable that these ancient civilizations existed way more than 10,000 years ago, even more than 12,000 years ago.
	So we're going to bring in David Wilcock for a relatively short discussion about that, and then I'll be back with you on the other side of that.
	So here we go.
	Enjoy this interview.
	All right.
	Welcome, folks.
	We're jumping in with a quick update from David Wilcock.
	He's the author of the new book, The Michael Prophecies.
	Book one was just released a couple of weeks ago, and his website is thedisclosure.com.
	He joins us now to give us an update about the comet impact theory versus solar flash theory and some ancient civilizations and megaliths and a few things like that.
	David, it's great to have you back on.
	Thanks for joining me on such short notice.
	Hey, thanks, Mike.
	I'm happy to talk about this.
	Obviously, this is one of my big passions.
	Catastrophes really bring out the drama in everyone, because if the world's going to be destroyed, we'd like to know about it.
	And this is something we've discussed extensively.
	I've had conferences where I met up with Graham Hancock, and in your recent shows, you were discussing the comet impact theory that To explain a catastrophe on Earth that most people, including Graham Hancock, now associate with the fall of Atlantis.
	And this is the younger, driest period, where you have this massive increase in sea level.
	Yes.
	Now, I believe you were watching a Netflix documentary, and I know that there's some very good data showing evidence of cometary impacts in the seafloor basin.
	that correspond to this time in geological history.
	That's exactly right.
	But I just want to add, of course, you know, I read Fingerprints of the Gods like 20 years ago, and it was the Netflix documentary that kind of reignited my interest.
	And since then, I've reached out to the Comet Research Group.
	And I think next week we're having on one of the published scientists as well.
	I forgot his name at the moment, but I'm going to have him on.
	So we're going to get a lot of great voices on about comet research or comet impact theory, the Younger Dry Ass Boundary and things like that.
	And I think we're looking at the collapse of our current civilization for different reasons.
	This might be called the Older Dry Ass Period.
	What do you think?
	Well, it's definitely something that's changing.
	And Getting back to this idea of what might be going on, you have Dr.
	Robert Schock, who went to the Sphinx, and he's renowned for seeing that the rear end of the Sphinx has curvature in the weathering on the rock, suggesting that it was weathered by water.
	Okay, so if you remember the water-weathering Sphinx thing, and he says it's got to be 11,000 years ago, that's the last time there was water there.
	Well, what he's also done is he wrote Forgotten Civilization, where he discusses the solar flash hypothesis for the Younger Dryas.
	And there's tons of evidence that supports this.
	For example, in the classic record, Graham Hancock points out 35 different ancient cultures that all had this mathematics of a 25,000-year Earth cycle in them.
	And they all say there's a catastrophe at the end that produces a species ascension for humanity.
	So basically what we're saying is these are the best historians that created the most exhaustive scholarly research that proved that all over the world, everybody's religion that was given to them by the gods told them the same story, which is everybody's religion that was given to them by the gods told It's like, wait a minute, does that mean that the same group is contacting everybody all over the world?
	Probably.
	So there's two types of catastrophe.
	There's eckpyrosis, which is death by fire, and there's kataklismos or cataclysm, which is death by water.
	So if you go through all these ancient records, they're always looking at the eckpyrosis.
	The Zoroastrians call it Frasho Kureti.
	The Hindus call it the Samvarta fire or the Yuga fire at the end of the age.
	And that's really the best resource we have is the Vedas, where they have long descriptions of the sun blowing up like this.
	So my point in bringing this back to the younger Dryas is that although we have evidence of cometary impact, What we would be assuming to be comets could also be debris thrown off from the sun.
	So Robert Schock not only went with the water weathering, he wrote Forgotten Civilization, where he goes to the Giza Plateau and he finds these places that have been turned to glass.
	The rock has been fired like it was in a kiln.
	And then there's these sites all over Europe of what are called vitrified forts, and I've had whole episodes of Ancient Aliens on this that we did, where you have these piles of rocks that look like they used to be rocks, but then it's as if somebody took a blowtorch, sustained burn of 1000 degrees Celsius, and melted the rocks together.
	Could this be an alternative explanation then for the sudden melting of the glacial ice shelves and the rising ocean levels?
	Right, and the point I wanted to make is that if you hang out with Graham Hancock, as I've done, if you go to these conferences, the latest I remember from a couple years ago, he was heavily veering towards the solar flash hypothesis and away from comet impact.
	Well, that's interesting.
	Because you just get a lot more out of it.
	You get microtectites explained, which are these little glass balls that show up around the Earth at this time that have interstellar material.
	There's iridium that shows up, which again is supposedly only in between stars.
	Right.
	Talk about nanodiamonds and the carbonspherials.
	Right.
	Exactly.
	Those are like microtectites.
	It's the same deal.
	Then on the Moon, at the same time of the Younger Dryas, you have these weird...
	They look like glazed donuts.
	Like again, the moon was fired in a kiln.
	And when does it happen?
	Bam!
	Younger Dryas period.
	So I think everybody pretty much agrees now in this scholarly community that it is a solar flash.
	And then you also have Dr.
	Paul LaViolette, who wrote books on the idea of a galactic super wave.
	I think that's one of the titles.
	And I don't necessarily believe that the main explanation for what's happening every 25,000 years is something from our galaxy's center.
	I do think there are galactic waves, but in Dr.
	LeViolet's work, he's got really great evidence of a solar flash.
	Where he goes through the microtectites, he goes through the stuff on the moon.
	And so in book two, I'm going to put this thing at the beginning.
	Another thing I wanted to lay on you, I'm watching the clock, I've done 10 minutes.
	No, I'm sorry, but let me interject here real quick.
	I apologize, but...
	What about, have astronomers observed other stars doing similar things that you're describing, like the solar flash?
	Because it's not a supernova, obviously, because the sun continues to exist.
	So it's sort of a hiccup.
	It's like a solar hiccup, right?
	Are we observing that in other stars?
	Let me take that question and tie in what I also want to ask, because I've got five minutes to do this.
	Okay, yeah, go for it.
	Sorry.
	But look, we'll do a longer interview, but this was, you know, a short segment for you to come on and join us tonight when I have another interview already scheduled.
	So this is like back-to-back interviews, and that's why the time...
	Yeah, I'm willing to do the Rockstar 10-minute format.
	Okay.
	But I'll do that, man.
	Let's do that.
	Okay, so here's the deal.
	There has been a catastrophe on Earth every 25,000 years, the last three times in a row.
	And I got to tell you, Mike, I wanted to debut this with you, and I didn't put it out before.
	I knew about this for a long time, but I thought it was fear porn, and I didn't want a bunch of people writing books and making money on this information.
	But due to what's going on now, I'm going to release it for the first time.
	So here we go.
	I've withheld this before because I didn't want to freak people out, but 75,000 years ago, which is when one of these cycles hit, you have the Lake Toba supervolcano, which reduces all human life on Earth to less than 10,000 people.
	Frickin' wiped out the whole planet.
	50,000 years ago, you have a catastrophe that produced Behringer Crater in Arizona, which is this massive kind of square crater.
	And the square is important.
	It's the geometry of the Earth's grid.
	And what's very strange about Beringer Crater is that even though they try to say it's a meteor impact, underneath the surface of the crater is fulgurite, which is fossilized lightning.
	You actually pull out these things.
	It's like, yeah, the lightning burns the sand and you get fossilized lightning.
	Wow.
	So what that suggests is that the Behringer Crater was actually an explosion from within the Earth that was caused by a very high level electrostatic discharge that created the lightning and blew up the whole planet.
	And then at the same time, there's this very strange, spontaneous human evolution 50,000 years ago, where we start tool-making, we start having religious beliefs, ceremonial burials, pottery, all this stuff just suddenly shows up 50,000 years ago.
	And then the last one is...
	24,000 years ago, thereabouts, is when the Neanderthals suddenly went extinct, and there's a corresponding Earth change to that.
	So, there you go.
	The point is that there's probably a lot more data about this in classified government programs than we don't have, but, quote-unquote, everybody knows on the inside that they're expecting some kind of a disaster.
	And I got two minutes left.
	So with Michael Prophecies, I've actually had a very fascinating thing happen where I performed what you could call remote viewing, but I did it for words from 1996 to the end of 1999.
	It's all been documented online.
	You can find it online.
	And I've gone through now and created the first two of three books that it's going to make.
	If you order this package, you get the whole thing at once.
	And I'm also offering, Mike, your listeners are going to have a $22 discount if they put in the word insider.
	So you would go to the page, thedisclosure.com.
	Get a $22 credit for typing in the word INSIDER in all capital letters.
	I think you should give a 44% discount if they say dry ass.
	If you're willing to humiliate yourself...
	You want to talk about...
	I was waiting for your laughter and it didn't happen.
	Well, you see, that's the thing, though, is that part of...
	And you know this.
	You and I talked about your work in comedy and that you were trained academically in comedy, which I think is so awesome.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Part of what you have to do, like if you watch Dan Aykroyd on Saturday Night Live, he never laughs.
	I know.
	No matter how funny he is.
	But the word insider gets you a 22% discount, and the website is thedisclosure.com if they want to get your book set.
	Right.
	So let me just finish this by saying that what is happening with this book is truly astonishing.
	First of all, there's tons and tons of additional material in book one that I think in and of itself...
	Our masterpiece.
	And that's what people are saying.
	I mean, we're getting these amazing comments.
	Some of them are on the website.
	People are having life-changing experience because this is a multidimensional, angelic consciousness.
	It's Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Lucia, who was a martyr.
	Who they tried to kill her because she wouldn't go into sex slavery, and they couldn't burn her, and they couldn't move her body.
	But then when they stabbed her in the neck, she died.
	So somehow she turned into a being like Archangel Michael, and they dictated this book through me.
	And honestly, I don't remember saying this stuff.
	The wording is incredible.
	It's very lofty.
	It's very Christian.
	And what they're telling us is that they're here now.
	They're protecting our planet.
	They're not going to let things go bad.
	They are guiding us through this arrest and exposure of the deep state.
	And once we fulfill our end of the bargain here on Earth by doing that, which I believe is getting ready to happen with the Republican Congress, everything that's going on, once we do that, They are going to do something mind-blowing, which is that we will have apparently graduated from the class that we have on Earth, which is the let me keep smashing you in the face until you learn to stop me class.
	Okay, all right.
	Well, we've had this debate publicly before where you have this incredible optimism about the future of humanity, and I'm a lot more pessimistic, but...
	I'd love to hear your perspective on it, and people can check it out at thedisclosure.com.
	And what we'll do, David, is we'll have you on a regular schedule for a longer conversation.
	I'd love that.
	But I want to get back to, you know, comet impact theory.
	I want to get into megaliths.
	I want to get into the ancient civilizations that have already been inundated by that they're under the ocean right now.
	There's these whole areas of white marble.
	There's some really cool stuff on the Giza Plateau that if you could have seen it when they originally made it, it was like white marble.
	And then something freaking fire blasted it, man.
	And it's all melted and stuff.
	I mean, there's some real hardcore science behind this, dude.
	It's real.
	Okay.
	Well, we'll do that next time.
	And I want to thank you again for just jumping in here real quickly.
	My pleasure.
	Yeah.
	Now, I think just to say my next guest is going to be probably a lot more pessimistic, but that's what we like to get people to contrast.
	Of, you know, different viewpoints of what's going on.
	So anyway, thank you, David.
	And again, the discount, what is it?
	Did you say 22%?
	Is that what you said?
	$22.
	And it's the word is insider, all capital letters.
	You go to thedisclosure.com.
	Okay.
	And again, it's all three books when they get done.
	And it's the audio versions of all three.
	So I'm actually making this a lot more affordable than if I got a regular book deal.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Oh, it's great.
	Okay.
	Good stuff.
	Okay.
	Thanks, Mike.
	I really appreciate it.
	Thanks, everybody.
	Absolutely.
	Thank you, David.
	All right.
	That's David Wilcock, everybody.
	The website, thedisclosure.com.
	I got to run jumping into another interview, but thank you all for listening.
	And thank you, David.
	Have a great evening.
	Thank you.
	All right.
	There we go, folks.
	I know that this has been kind of a longer podcast today, but we had two really interesting guests for you.
	Different analysis of what's happening in the world.
	We looked at the Russian war escalation situation.
	We looked at China and Taiwan.
	We've looked at vaccines, the Monday night football player collapsing, sadly.
	We've looked at the Wall Street Journal admitting that vaccines cause people to be more susceptible to infections.
	And some other stories as well.
	You know, Germany and then the Chinese moon base and things like that.
	So This is going to be an interesting year.
	No question about that.
	And I will continue to have interesting guests on for you.
	I've got a great guest lined up for you tomorrow evening.
	Someone who you would recognize.
	I'll keep it a secret.
	And then I've got another interview Wednesday evening lined up as well.
	And then it looks like I've got one set for Friday afternoon.
	So definitely some interesting interviews for you this week.
	I'll keep you posted.
	Stay tuned.
	Be on alert.
	You know, get prepared.
	It's going to be a wild ride.
	But thank you for listening.
