	Welcome to the situation update for Tuesday, March 7th, 2021.
	I'm Mike Adams and this is the Chicken Feed edition of the Situation Update.
	Thank you for joining me.
	Today we're going to be starting off with the lab test results of the tractor supply Producers Pride chicken feed layer.
	Here we go.
	This is their 16% layer mini pellets formula.
	And the background on this story is that some people were claiming that this chicken feed caused their chickens to no longer lay eggs.
	And there was a lot of online speculation about whether there was something missing from the chicken feed or some contaminant found in the chicken feed that could have caused that problem.
	So when that story began to spread, I publicly committed to using our food science lab that we use for all of our products at the Health Ranger store to test this product, this tractor supply chicken feed product, and bring you the results publicly.
	And we've completed our testing, and I'm going to announce the results for you right here.
	And it is interesting, that's for sure.
	Now, today's segment is brought to you by our store, healthrangerstore.com.
	We use the same laboratory to test our own products.
	And we've got chlorella in stock right now over here.
	Chlorella, tablets in bottles, in bags, in number 10 cans here as well.
	Chlorella is a natural detox supplement.
	It's a single-celled microalgae that's very rich in chlorophyll.
	And it can help support your body's natural detoxification.
	Find these products and more, all lab tested, at HealthRangerStore.com.
	Now, continuing with our results here.
	So, we went to Tractor Supply and we purchased six products.
	They are Purina Layena Layer Crumbles, Flock Party Egg Maker Pellets, Nature's Best Organic Egg Layer Pellets, Producers Pride, which is this product, 16% Layer Feed Mini Pellets, Do More 16% Egg Max Pellets, and then Do More 16% Layer Crumble.
	And just for anybody watching from Tractor Supply or Tractor Supply's legal department, the lot number that we have tested for this is 3005-205-205-61YY-9901-2894205.
	Okay, that's the lot that we tested.
	And I should also mention that the last product here, the Dumour 16% layer crumble, is certified organic, which you'll see actually makes a huge difference.
	So we tested all six of these products for aflatoxins, which is a rather deadly contaminant that's created by fungi, mold, in the food supply.
	And it can kill animals and it can kill humans.
	It's very, very toxic if it appears in the food supply.
	So we tested for aflatoxins.
	We tested for glyphosate.
	and And we have those results I'll share with you here in a second.
	And this is in our own laboratory, of course.
	We have parts per billion concentration results.
	And then we ran a full testing for all the nutritive minerals as well as potentially toxic heavy metals such as arsenic, lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel, you know, things like that.
	And let me give you the short version of what we found and then we'll go into more detail.
	So what we found is, I think, rather interesting.
	This tractor supply product, Producer's Pride, it turns out to actually have more than twice the level of glyphosate than the other products on average, and also looks like about twice the level of aflatoxins as the other products.
	However, in defense of Tractor Supply's product here, Producer's Pride, the numbers that we found were May not be responsible for any lack of egg laying.
	That's for some, maybe, I don't know, an avian biologist to determine.
	But let me tell you the numbers we found.
	So for aflatoxins, we found in most, well, the other products, numbers like 1.1 parts per billion, 1.4, 1.5, 1.8, and 1.9.
	But in this tractor supply product, we got 2.9 parts per billion.
	So about twice as high on aflatoxins.
	However, that number, 2.9 parts per billion, is well within what's generally recognized as safe by the FDA and the USDA. So for example, the FDA allows corn with aflatoxins below 20 parts per billion to be fed to livestock, and the FDA says that that's safe, and USDA has similar guidelines.
	Now, for peanuts, nuts and peanuts have a lot of aflatoxin risk, and so there are rules about being able to export peanuts with a certain level of aflatoxins, and those rules vary from one country to another.
	In the EU, the limit has been, for peanuts, it has been four parts per billion.
	I think they raised it to ten parts.
	If I'm not mistaken, I mean, these numbers are changing all the time.
	But across the world, different countries, some countries have a limit as strict as, let's say, two parts per billion.
	And then other countries have limits of more like 50 or even 100 parts per billion.
	So this being 2.9 parts per billion, It may potentially be higher than some limits by some countries, but certainly not the United States and not the EU. So there's nothing that tractor supply is selling here that is, at least for aflatoxins, it does not violate any FDA or USDA guidelines that I'm aware of at all.
	Is 2.9 parts per billion aflatoxins, is that potentially responsible for chickens not laying eggs?
	I kind of doubt it, actually.
	I doubt it, but again, I'm not the avian biologist expert.
	Someone else could chime in on that.
	But certainly it is about twice as high as the other products that we tested.
	So I wouldn't call it, you know, obviously the cleanest product in terms of aflatoxins.
	So that's my take.
	Now, moving on to the next potential contaminant, glyphosate.
	Now, glyphosate is the world's number one weed killer, and it's sprayed on, well, Roundup Ready crops, and it's sprayed on weeds and so on, and it's used in areas where some chickens feed, and so there's a certain amount of glyphosate that's in areas, but also in chicken feed.
	Glyphosate is used on certain crops.
	It's used on legumes.
	It's used as a desiccant and so on.
	Well, let me tell you the levels of glyphosate that we found in the other products then compared to Producers Pride.
	In the Dumour organic product, zero.
	We detected zero glyphosate.
	And that's good news because it shows that Dumour's organic line really is avoiding exposure to glyphosate.
	That's great to know.
	Let's see.
	In nature's best organic egg layer pellets, we found 1.8 parts per billion glyphosate, which is an extremely low level, and personally I would not be concerned about that level.
	That is an organic product, however, so it would be great if that were zero, but it's not.
	It's 1.8.
	And then in another Dumour product, we found 2.5 parts per billion.
	And then in Flock Party, we found 10.5 parts per billion, glyphosate.
	In Purina's layer crumbles, we found 10.7.
	In Producers' Pride from Tractor Supply, we found 19.8.
	So it was, again, roughly, well, more than twice the average of the other products.
	But then again, this product is not labeled organic.
	And the other issue is that 19.8, or we could round it to 20 parts per billion, 20 parts per billion of glyphosate in a chicken feed product is Would not alarm the FDA or the USDA or even EU officials, nor would it alarm probably Canadian officials of any kind.
	It's not uncommon to see that in non-organic chicken feed.
	So I just want to be clear that the tractor supply company...
	Has not violated any, at least in terms of glyphosate, and we already covered aflatoxins, but in terms of glyphosate, they have not violated any FDA guidelines or USDA guidelines.
	Could 20 parts per billion glyphosate cause harm to chickens and cause them to stop laying eggs?
	Frankly, I doubt it.
	I truly doubt it.
	I don't think that's responsible for the lack of egg laying that's been reported by some people.
	Then again, if you want to reduce your chicken's exposure to glyphosate, you should buy organic.
	All the organic products are significantly lower.
	And also, by the way, if you have backyard chickens like I do...
	You want to let them, you know, free range and feed, eat weeds and little bugs and what have you, scorpions and such.
	Don't use glyphosate on your farm or anywhere on your property because that glyphosate will end up in the chicken eggs and the chicken meat.
	If you eat your chicken meat, just stop using these products and it won't end up in your chickens.
	In any case, also bio-organic if you don't want to have exposure to this in your chicken feed.
	All right, next we tested this for heavy metals.
	In addition to heavy metals, we also tested for nutritive elements, such as magnesium and potassium and so on.
	So let me just go through some of the kind of interesting results in this realm.
	And this testing was conducted via ICP-MS, by the way.
	It's another type of mass spec for elemental analysis.
	So we tested for aluminum, and of course there's aluminum in all the products we tested.
	It's a very common element in any kind of feed.
	And the producer's pride product actually had among the lowest levels of aluminum.
	So if you consider aluminum to be a contaminant, even though it's in everything, I mean, it's in all food, it's not high in tractor supplies product at all.
	Potassium we tested, and Producers Pride here had the highest levels of potassium, about 30% higher than all the other brands, which is interesting.
	So whatever they're doing, they're getting a lot more potassium, which is good nutrition.
	Let's see.
	We tested vanadium, chromium.
	What do we have here?
	Iron, nickel.
	Not any crazy, weird results in any of that.
	Let's see.
	Zinc.
	They all have a good amount of zinc.
	The Dumour had the highest zinc levels, which is good for chickens, but too much zinc can be a bad thing.
	Then we tested for arsenic, a toxic element.
	And arsenic in water wells is, believe it or not, the number one cause of cancer around the world.
	But that's arsenic-contaminated water wells where people are drinking a tremendous amount of water that has, you know, inorganic arsenic in it.
	And by the way, our test did not distinguish between organic versus inorganic arsenic in this case.
	But just from an elemental level, the tractor supply product had 179 parts per billion arsenic.
	Which is not much.
	It's not unusual to see that.
	The Dumour product, the non-organic Dumour, had almost 900 parts per billion arsenic, which is also not necessarily alarming by itself either.
	The other products had 379, 268, 137, and so on.
	So arsenic, no major red flags there.
	Let's see.
	Strontium, which is also very important for healthy eggs.
	The highest levels of strontium were found in the flock pantry egg maker pellets at about 79 parts per million, which is within a normal range and is important for chickens.
	The Dumour non-organic product had almost 70 parts per million, and Producers Pride here had only about 43 parts per million, which is still fine.
	It's within a normal range.
	Let's see.
	None of them had silver.
	Dang it.
	It'd be nice to get free silver from your grain.
	Let's look at cadmium.
	There was a very big difference in cadmium, and this surprised me quite a bit.
	Now, Producers Pride, again, the tractor supply product, actually had the lowest levels of cadmium of all the brands that we tested.
	Only 74 parts per billion, which for cadmium is, you know, acceptably low.
	Now, cadmium is not nearly as toxic as, let's say, lead.
	So there's a little more leeway when it comes to cadmium in foods.
	I'm happy with 74.
	I wouldn't have any problems with something even like a chocolate bar that had 74 parts per billion cadmium.
	That would pass muster.
	And the flock party egg maker pellets had about 75 parts per billion cadmium, which is also very low.
	Purina had 153.
	And by the way, I'm going to publish this on naturalnews.com so you can see the numbers for yourself.
	Nature's best organic egg layer pellets had a little over 100, 103 parts per billion, which is very low.
	The Dumour egg max pellets had the highest number by far, 690 parts per billion.
	Which, in my mind, that's starting to get a little bit concerning as a food scientist.
	I wouldn't want to feed my chickens a feed that had almost 700 parts per billion cadmium on an ongoing basis.
	Now, granted, these numbers can vary from production lot to production lot.
	I mean, they will vary because these are agricultural products.
	So what you're seeing here is just a snapshot of You know, the next lot could change next week.
	But when I see something getting close to one part per million cadmium, which is what I'm seeing in the Dumour product, you know, I would maybe look at changing the feed.
	I wouldn't throw away the feed.
	I just wouldn't want to keep feeding them that, you know, year after year because it's a little too much to build up over time.
	Let's see.
	Cesium, all normal.
	We tested for mercury.
	We found zero mercury in all the products.
	That's great.
	No mercury whatsoever.
	That's good.
	We wouldn't expect to see mercury.
	If we do see mercury, something's really wrong.
	Someone's been dumpster diving in the industrial irrigation stew if they have mercury in their product.
	But fortunately, none of these products had mercury.
	All right, now lead.
	Lead.
	We test for different lead isotopes, and I'm reading from the lead 206 here, by the way.
	That's the atomic mass of this isotope.
	Lead numbers for producers' pride from tractor supply, the lead was, in fact, the lowest of all the brands that we tested, about 114 parts per billion, or you could say 0.1 parts per million.
	That's a pretty low number.
	That's acceptable.
	I would have no problem feeding my chickens something that has only, let's say, around 100 parts per billion lead.
	Other brands, such as Purina, Layer Crumbles, Flock Party, and Nature's Best Organic Egg Layer Pellets, they were in the 200 range.
	223, 237, 285 parts per billion.
	So starting to get up there, In my world, when you start to get over 250 parts per billion, I give that food a lower grade.
	I don't want to see over 250 ppb of lead in anything.
	But it's not at a level that's going to kill your chickens.
	I don't think this is responsible for them not laying eggs, by the way.
	This is just variation in the agricultural supply.
	But the Dumour product...
	In fact, I think, yeah, the same Dumour product here, the Egg Max pellets that had the high cadmium, yeah, 690 cadmium had also the highest lead at about 589 parts per billion lead.
	To me, that's too high to continue to feed my chickens that product.
	I wouldn't do it.
	But again, it could vary lot to lot.
	Doesn't mean that every D'Amour product has this level of lead in it.
	Again, this is just a snapshot.
	It's not enough to kill a chicken.
	It wouldn't be unsafe to eat an egg from that chicken.
	But I wouldn't feed them that over time because it can build up, and some of that can end up in the eggs.
	So I would choose a cleaner product.
	That's just my personal opinion.
	By the way, the Dumour Organic Layer Crumble also had 345 parts per billion lead, which is higher than what I would want to see.
	I want to see that below 250.
	But organic certification, in case you didn't know, does not say anything about the levels of heavy metals.
	So the USDA organic program does not even test for heavy metals.
	That's why we test for heavy metals, because no one's doing it, seemingly.
	Very few people are doing it.
	The USDA doesn't do it.
	Most farmers don't do it.
	And a lot of organic products that are sold in the marketplace are quite heavily contaminated with lead and cadmium.
	Turmeric, for example, which is in my smoothie here.
	I've almost finished the smoothie, so you can't really see it, but the turmeric almost always has lead in it when you get it from India or other places, and that's why we have to reject sometimes 80% of those production lots because they're crazy high in lead.
	You'll find lead in maca root.
	You'll find lead in moringa.
	You'll find lead in ginger.
	Sometimes even in beets or other root crops, garlic and onions can have lead, but especially turmeric and maca and ginger.
	So in any case, producer's pride was the cleanest in lead.
	Those are the tests that we conducted.
	Again, aflatoxins, glyphosate, and those elements, nutritive elements as well as toxic heavy metals.
	And the bottom line in all of this is we could not identify, there's no kind of smoking gun that pops out and says, oh, that's totally toxic, don't ever feed that.
	No, we didn't see anything like that.
	We saw that this product from Tractor Supply has, you know, about twice the level of aflatoxins and about twice the level of glyphosate, but those levels were not, they were not past any threshold of extreme concern or guidelines from the EPA or USDA. We also, as I said, tested for heavy metals, and it turns out that results really varied.
	So some of the organic products, like the Dumour Organic, had the highest, or I should say among the highest levels of metals, whereas this Producers Pride had the lowest levels of cadmium and lead.
	So it's a mixed bag, folks.
	It's a mixed bag.
	Here's what I would say.
	As a published food scientist or someone who has backyard chickens and someone who cares about stopping pollution and having clean food for yourself, and I eat the chicken eggs from my own chickens and I encourage you to do so as well, here's my advice.
	Number one, buy organic.
	Generally speaking, organic is going to be a cleaner product.
	It will have lower levels of glyphosate, probably lower levels of aflatoxins.
	It typically doesn't sit on the shelf as long, although I know that can vary brand to brand.
	But organic doesn't mean that it has no heavy metals in it.
	So understand the limitations of organic.
	The USDA program doesn't even require testing for that.
	So even if you're buying organic, you may end up with higher levels of heavy metals.
	As a result, I encourage you to rotate your organic products.
	So switch brands.
	So maybe you buy a couple of bags of one brand.
	You should switch to another brand and you should rotate brands.
	Why?
	Because if there's any high level or relatively high level of, let's say, cadmium or lead in an organic brand, Then by rotating off of that brand you're allowing the chicken time to do its natural detoxification from that potential contaminant or element.
	And by rotating brands You're allowing the detox to take place and you're giving the chicken time before you reintroduce a relatively higher level of that same potential metal or toxin in the future.
	So to summarize, number one, buy organic because organic brands are going to be cleaner.
	And then secondly, rotate those organic brands over time.
	So that you're spreading out the exposure among multiple different products, different brands, different months, different seasons, and you give your chickens time to detox.
	Make sure your chickens have clean water.
	Make sure your chickens have access to clean grass and shrubs and weeds and bugs.
	And if you can avoid it, don't spray anything on your farm because that's another vector of contamination.
	But by just giving your chickens clean water, they're going to naturally detox on their own quite a bit.
	And then if you have organic food in your own kitchen, save your food scraps and share those food scraps obviously with your chickens.
	Let them, you know, Peck through the avocados or the carrots or the, you know, carrot shavings or apple cores or whatever, right?
	Just give it to your chickens first and let them feed off of that.
	You can also, by the way, grow your own local crops that your chickens can feed on.
	You can grow, for example, mulberry trees.
	And chickens love to eat the mulberries or other types of things that you can grow there locally.
	And as long as you're not spraying glyphosate around, that's not going to be an issue.
	Yes, you're going to have to probably supplement with feed like Tractor Supply Feed or other brands.
	Just rotate those brands and buy organic wherever you can.
	One more thing you can do, although this can get expensive, is you can feed your chickens superfoods.
	You can get things like plerella if you wish, although, again, that's expensive.
	But you can get superfoods.
	You can help your chickens naturally detox.
	But I think the simplest and easiest way to do that is just give them a lot of free-range, fresh grass, a clean environment, and clean water.
	And I think they're going to do most of the detox on their own.
	You can also grow sprouts, by the way, and you can feed sprouts to your chickens, and that's a really powerful detox.
	And that's also very inexpensive.
	It's a lot cheaper than purchasing supplements.
	Nothing wrong with buying supplements, but you can't end up growing like a $50 egg.
	You have to think about the economy of this.
	So sprouting alfalfa sprouts or broccoli sprouts and then feeding some of those sprouts to your chickens, that's a really economical way to get them lots of chlorophyll and lots of good nutrition.
	All right, the bottom line here, folks.
	We did what we promised.
	We ran the product from Tractor Supply through our lab.
	We did ICP-MS testing.
	We did glyphosate testing.
	We did the afotoxin testing.
	Share the results with you.
	There are some interesting numbers.
	No red flags.
	So my bottom line answer is, I don't know why these chickens aren't laying eggs.
	I don't know if it's tied to producer's pride.
	At all.
	Or not.
	Or maybe it's tied to one local lot number that was sold in one region or something and is no longer even available.
	Who knows?
	Who knows?
	But I didn't find anything that was a major red alarm.
	And that's good news.
	That's good news for all of us because we live in a very toxic world.
	And now we're dealing with dioxin fallout after East Palestine.
	We're dealing with contaminated waterways.
	You know, we're dealing with freaking chemtrails and who knows walls falling out of the sky.
	The world is not clean, folks.
	That's why we do our lab testing.
	That's why we test all our own products and everything at the Health Ranger store.
	The world is not clean.
	You're not going to find a product that's zero, zero, zero, you know, zero aflatoxin, zero glyphosate, zero lead.
	Doesn't exist.
	Doesn't exist, folks.
	Sad to say it doesn't exist.
	And this is why it's important to have healthy habits yourself because your body naturally eliminates these over time.
	So the healthier you are and the more you exercise and sweat and the healthier the water you drink and the superfoods that you consume, the more efficiently your body can get rid of toxins because you're going to be exposed to toxins and your chickens are going to be exposed to toxins.
	We live in a toxic world.
	That's all there is to it.
	That's why when the media freaked out over all these chocolate bars, oh, they have this...
	Trace of lead in them.
	Trader Joe's chocolate bar.
	Everybody run.
	Are you kidding me?
	Trader Joe's chocolate bar doesn't even have the highest levels of lead.
	And there's lead in all chocolate, by the way.
	If it's real chocolate, there's going to be lead in it, folks.
	I'm telling you.
	Because we've tested, I don't know, hundreds of chocolate bars.
	There's lead in every single one.
	The question is how much lead and how much are you consuming?
	That's it.
	And how well is your own natural detox working?
	So anyway, we kept our promise.
	We did the testing.
	Sorry that we couldn't find a smoking gun, but I'm also happy that we didn't.
	So if you want to go out and feed this to your chickens...
	I don't think it's going to kill your chickens.
	I don't think it's going to harm your chickens.
	But I would choose organic and I would rotate my organic brands.
	That's my advice.
	So there you go.
	Mike Adams here, the Health Ranger for naturalnews.com and also brighteon.com.
	And I will mention that we're adding dioxin testing to our laboratory coming up, which is a really fascinating gas chromatography interface addition to our triple quad mass spec.
	I can't wait to do that.
	I will be taking a week off in order to do training in the lab on that new interface.
	After that, we're going to start rolling out dioxin testing.
	Woo, that should be interesting.
	I don't expect to find a lot of dioxins in chicken feed, by the way, but I do expect to find them in animal products, such as chicken meat or chicken eggs, cheese, you know, hamburger, things like that.
	We're going to find dioxins because we live in a toxic world.
	So, hey, continue your detox, folks.
	Thanks for watching.
	Mike Adams here, The Health Ranger, for naturalnews.com.
	All right, let's move on to some other critical news.
	Now audio only for this segment.
	Take a look at this video that has been making its rounds over the last 24 hours or so.
	This video shows a massive collection of military equipment from the United States, including M1 Abrams tanks, that has now been gathered in the port of Dynia in Poland.
	Yes, Poland.
	And this is equipment rumored to belong to the U.S. Army's 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division.
	Check this out.
	So this is drone footage, and it's kind of sweeping forward, showing what's in the port.
	And you can see there's all kinds of tanks there.
	On the right, there's armored vehicles.
	There are command vehicles.
	You can see logistics transport vehicles.
	Self-propelled artillery units.
	We saw there, let's see, a lot more command units.
	And you see some people walking around there, so you know this is actual, real, live footage.
	And it looks like anti-aircraft interdiction, you know, radar command units, something like that.
	And a lot of transport equipment.
	Again, logistics, fuel tankers, water tankers.
	Folks, this equipment is going to be sent to the front lines.
	Have no illusions.
	It's officially stated that this is equipment that's being gathered up to be returned to America after participating in some kind of exercise.
	Atlantic Resolve is the name of the exercise.
	And now it's done, and now they're going to bring all this equipment back home.
	Ha ha.
	Right.
	No.
	This is going to be redirected to Ukraine.
	No question about it.
	And remember what I said weeks ago.
	And I said, you may only hear it here, but my intel sources told me that thousands of tanks and armored vehicles were being moved and staged in Europe.
	They were being moved across the United States at first, gathered up on the East Coast, and then put on ships and transported across to Europe.
	Well, perhaps that's some of what you just saw.
	I mean, I don't know what to believe from the U.S. State Department or, frankly, from Russia or anybody at this point, but that is more than a boatload of tanks and equipment.
	I mean, that is a whole port dockyard filled with military equipment.
	And it means to me that the United States is on the verge of declaring war or provoking war with Russia and then sending all this equipment to Ukraine.
	And it brings up several important questions.
	Number one, who would be operating this equipment?
	Seriously, who would operate this equipment if this were sent to engage Russia in a war?
	I guarantee you it won't be Ukrainians.
	Because there are not enough trained Ukrainians to operate this number of American tanks and self-propelled artillery units and command units and anti-aircraft units and all this stuff.
	This is going to be American military personnel.
	And remember, Zelensky said last week that American men and women, servicemen and women, are going to die if he doesn't get what he wants.
	And here we go.
	We're seeing how this is going to happen.
	All this equipment is going to be deployed to Russia, along with American military men and women to operate these tanks and vehicles and so on.
	Again, the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team of the U.S. Army, part of the 1st Cavalry Division.
	That's what this looks like.
	Now, a second question comes up from this.
	Well, actually, a couple more.
	But the second question is, isn't this a nice juicy target for Putin?
	You know, the fact that this footage went public, the fact that this is sitting in a port in Poland, and the fact that surely Putin knows this is about to be deployed against Russia, it kind of looks like a juicy target for one thermobaric weapon,
	a fuel-air explosive, or a A nuclear weapon, nuclear artillery, kind of small scale, or maybe a nuclear tipped hypersonic missile of some kind, you know, to take out this port, take out all this equipment all at once.
	It's almost like America is begging Putin to do this so that America can justify the war.
	Now, where have we seen this before in history?
	Pearl Harbor, folks.
	So think about the similarities.
	The United States enacted an energy embargo against Japan.
	The U.S. Navy embargoed oil imports and energy imports into Japan.
	Exactly the same thing, well essentially the same thing, is what the U.S. has done by destroying the Nord Stream pipelines and cutting off Russia from the swift economic system and trying to place price caps on oil tankers carrying oil from Russia and so on.
	An energy embargo.
	So the U.S. did that to Japan.
	And then the U.S. put out a juicy, juicy target in Pearl Harbor.
	And even kind of induced Japan to attack it by making sure that the U.S. radar installations weren't really working very well.
	And you can bet there's a lot of back-channel information there about, hey, attack Pearl Harbor.
	And then right before attack day, the key, the critical naval ships were moved out of Pearl Harbor, leaving behind in Pearl Harbor Pretty much ships that weren't, you know, state-of-the-art ships that needed repairs, ships that could be sacrificed.
	And then they allowed the Pearl Harbor attack to happen.
	So it wasn't really a false flag.
	It was an allowed attack, you know, kind of like 9-11.
	And then the Japanese, of course, did their attack on Pearl Harbor and a bunch of American servicemen and some women also died.
	And then the media, of course, talked about the story, the horrors, a day that would live in infamy and never be forgotten and we have to enter the war.
	And then all of a sudden there was widespread support for joining the war in the Pacific.
	See, and then that enriched, of course, the corporations, the industries at the time that were part of the war industry.
	And it got us involved in war with Japan, with the Japanese Empire.
	And then we were fighting a two-front war at that point with Hitler in the European theater and, of course, Japan in the Pacific theater.
	Now, at that time, America had this massive industrial base and And this domestic supply chain of metals and minerals and a labor force that actually wanted to work instead of just sit at home and play Xbox all day or whatever people play these days.
	And so we were able to win, in effect, with the help of many allies, including Russia, by the way, we were able to win both wars.
	But we needed the Brits.
	We needed the French.
	And we needed, in the Pacific theater, we needed the help from a lot of nations in that area to be able to beat the Japanese.
	We needed help from the Philippines, for example.
	Australia, New Zealand, even Taiwan to some extent, and some Southeastern nations as well.
	And believe it or not, to some extent, even China at the time.
	And that's how we defeated the Japanese Empire.
	So America set that up.
	America set up Pearl Harbor, inviting the attack so that we would join the war.
	This is what's happening right now with Russia.
	The United States is inviting Russia to attack this juicy target of thousands of armored vehicles, tanks, everything that you saw there, so that America can sacrifice those men and women and that equipment in order to justify a total declaration of war against Russia.
	And that's just one scenario.
	But you can bet that the U.S. is about to enter this war.
	They're just looking for the right, the level of anger from the American public.
	They have to evoke this anger.
	And there are only a few ways to do that.
	It has to be emotional.
	It has to be emotional.
	So just blaming Russia for a cyber attack on the financial infrastructure, I don't think that's enough.
	Whatever is about to happen, and I do think something is imminent here, it has to be gory and bloody for the CNN cameras to run to repeat over and over again.
	Look at all the burning bodies.
	Look at the suffering.
	There has to be an emotional reaction from the American people to get angry and riled up and say, damn it, you know, go attack Russia no matter what.
	Like, that's what they're looking for.
	And in order to achieve that, it has to be something like a Pearl Harbor.
	But maybe even on a more massive scale.
	There has to be mass death and blood and guts and gore and people blown up and what have you.
	Now another way that the United States could evoke that is to set off a nuclear bomb in an American city.
	And this was the plan if Hillary Clinton were to become president.
	They were going to do this back in roughly 2017 or 2018.
	They were going to set off a nuke in America using nuclear material from Russia that the U.S. intelligence community has their hands on.
	So that when it detonates, then the fallout will have the isotopic ratio profile of Russian nuclear material.
	And this is already in the possession.
	You know, of certain groups, certain people in the United States.
	They can set this off at any time, and they can claim it's Russia.
	Yeah.
	That could be coming.
	There are other options as well, lots of other options.
	It could be, for example, a nuclear bomb set off at that port where all those tanks are in Poland to blame Russia.
	It could be a nuke in London.
	Or Berlin, for that matter, or Warsaw, or any other location that is part of the West.
	Russian nuclear submarines are right off the coasts of the United States, both the east and west coasts.
	And Russia has the Poseidon underwater drone nuclear weapons with 100 megaton warheads.
	That's kind of the low end estimate that can generate the radioactive tsunami waves, you know, and completely wreck the coast and render it uninhabitable for centuries because of the radiation.
	Russia has those weapons right now.
	And you have to think that if America has all these tanks and all this military equipment ready to go in Poland, and Poland is raising a massive army of hundreds of thousands of men, soldiers, and training them, getting that ready as quickly as they can, then we are not far away from some kind of major attack on a Western country, a Western target.
	And your guess is as good as mine of what that target might be.
	Maybe the target's New York City, Wall Street.
	Maybe it's Washington, D.C. Maybe it's London.
	Maybe it's Houston, Texas, for all we know.
	But that is coming.
	So just like with Pearl Harbor, there's no limit to the number of Americans that the U.S. government will sacrifice in order to get their war.
	And they don't care how many Americans die.
	As long as they get their war.
	Because they can't allow Russia to continue to exist as its own sovereign nation.
	See, the West has to destroy Russia in order to overtake its industry and to dominate control and ownership over Russia's resources.
	Now, remember that Russia is a vast population.
	It's very large, and it holds about one-third of the world's natural resources.
	Did you know that?
	About one-third.
	Just in Russia alone.
	Not even the old Soviet Union.
	Just Russia.
	About one-third of the aggregate energy and minerals and fertilizer and other resources.
	Natural resources.
	One-third in Russia.
	Well, the West can't stand not tapping into that.
	Of course, the way Western tyrants think is like, oh, we should get a piece of that.
	We should control that.
	Those should be our kickbacks.
	Absolutely.
	Our corporations and bribes and what have you.
	We can't let Putin and the Russians control that.
	That's the way the West thinks.
	The whole world has to be dominated by the West.
	So the existence of Russia has no place in the blueprint for the world that's envisioned by Western leaders.
	And in order to destroy Russia, they have to wage total war.
	But total war would not be politically feasible right now.
	The American people wouldn't go for it.
	So they have to evoke a massive emotional response.
	And that can only come from an allowed attack, something as emotionally strong as 9-11, but far larger in its scope.
	The scale of the event has to be much larger.
	It can't be just 3,000 or 4,000 people killed.
	It's got to be something on a scale of more like 20,000 to 30,000 people killed.
	It has to be almost something that the media would call a holocaust.
	And it has to be gory.
	It has to be bloody.
	There have to be innocent women and children involved and so on.
	Again, this is an emotional ploy to wage war against Russia and to get all of America behind that emotional freight train, so to speak.
	Only then will the Biden regime have what it wants, which is World War III, leading to the destruction of NATO and the West.
	See, that's the larger globalist goal is to eliminate America as well.
	So let me step back.
	The globalists have tricked the American, you know, the arrogant, incompetent American leaders that they can dominate the world by waging war against Russia.
	But the globalists know that America would be defeated by Russia in a land war in Europe.
	So if America sends all these tanks and all this equipment over to Europe and tries to wage a land war with Russia, America loses big time.
	And once America loses, and the globalists know this, they want to take out America and the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, the Second Amendment, all that.
	Once America loses that war, then all the other countries around the world that have been bullied by the American empire for generations, they realize, hey, the U.S. can't really threaten us.
	They can't defeat Russia.
	They can't even defeat Afghanistan.
	They can't really threaten us anymore.
	And then the world abandons the petrodollar.
	You can't make us buy oil in dollars anymore.
	Your military is wiped out.
	See?
	And then the petrodollar collapses.
	The American empire of debt collapses.
	The U.S. government collapses.
	And then America as a country collapses into uprisings, civil unrest, regional civil war, probably media provoking more racial hatred.
	so you get race wars in certain left-wing cities.
	The police are already retreating like crazy in these Democrat cities.
	You saw that near Atlanta recently with the Antifa terrorist attacks over the weekend.
	Just shooting fireworks and roaming candles and the police are just fleeing, basically.
	I'm not even going to show you that video.
	It's so pathetic just to watch police running away from fireworks.
	Like, really?
	This is your training?
	You're running away from a group of terrorists shooting off fireworks?
	Unreal.
	I don't even know what to say.
	It's just, how did America come to this?
	But the point is, all of this leads to the total destruction of America.
	But in order to do that, the globalists have to drag America into this war with Russia.
	And fortunately, from the point of view of the globalists, the American leaders are so arrogant, incompetent, and stupid that they think they can beat Russia.
	And so that is the setup for this war, this war that is about to begin probably within weeks or months, maybe days, but probably weeks or months.
	Now, let's go through some of the other headlines kind of quickly here, some big breaking news today.
	You can find all this on Censored.News.
	And remember that I'm posting on Censored.News in the morning, sometimes midday, sometimes in the evening, of what's on my radar of crazy things that are happening in the world. Important things, a lot of things that I'm going to talk about in this podcast. But here we go.
	Alleged Antifa member arrested on domestic terror charges related to the violent attack on the Atlanta Cop City, which I just spoke about, is an attorney at the Southern Poverty Law Center, reports the Gateway Pundit.
	Wow.
	Brazil just approved GMO wheat.
	Get ready for frankenfood wheat products to hit the grocery store.
	That's from agweb.com.
	DailySkeptic.org reporting that there's a demographic collapse in England.
	New births are plummeting as deaths are increasing because, of course, the depopulation vaccine jab.
	Global sperm counts are declining at an accelerating rate, according to a new meta-analysis.
	That's from greatgameindia.com showing the depopulation scheme is working.
	German citizens are being told that their domestic power grid will be partially dismantled by the year 2030.
	That's not that far away.
	Basically, Western Europe, the citizens are being told that your continent is history, at least as a Western civilization continent.
	It's done.
	There will not be a rebuilding.
	There will not be a recovery.
	It's done.
	Western Europe's going to collapse into basically an agrarian, you know, post-industrial type of society.
	That's where it's going.
	It's halfway there right now.
	Washington State, the Attorney General there, is pushing a new bill that would criminalize any dissent against vaccines or elections or, frankly, anything that the government doesn't want you talking about.
	They would throw you in jail under that new bill.
	And then there's new information about CNN boss Zucker, Jeff Zucker, he had ordered staff not to cover the COVID lab leak theory in 2020 and also in 21 as well.
	So a massive cover-up by CNN, as we always knew this whole time.
	But those are some of the top headlines from Censored.News.
	Just be sure to check out that website, Censored.News.
	It's definitely worth a look as I post breaking news there before anywhere else.
	Anyway, the bottom line here, folks, is things are about to get super dicey.
	I am anticipating a declared war against Russia sometime in the next, let's say, 120 days.
	Maybe sooner.
	We'll see.
	We've declared in some way, maybe by the Biden administration, not necessarily by Congress, but declared that we're at war with Russia and some kind of major attack on U.S. soil.
	And, you know, the world's going crazy by the day.
	So, folks, refocus on what matters.
	Learn how to grow food.
	It's springtime in the Northern Hemisphere.
	Use this time to practice growing food and get your backyard chickens going.
	I'm actually hatching some baby chicks right now with a mother hen brooding on the eggs.
	Should be hatching maybe this week.
	I'll show you a video once that happens.
	And I'm giving the mother hen and the baby chicks to a friend so that that friend can start a whole new small flock of a mama hen and some baby chicks and go from there.
	So I'm actually allowing, because normally we collect the eggs, but This hen wanted to sit on her eggs, so we said, hey, let's do that.
	Let them hatch, give them to a friend.
	And this is how we help proliferate backyard food supply of eggs.
	So do something like that.
	Get prepared.
	It's going to get super dicey, no doubt.
	Oh, that reminds me, our friends at hoplightarmor.com.
	I think they have, if you use discount code Ranger, I think they have, it's either a 15% or 20% discount going right now, perhaps through March.
	I'm not sure entirely.
	But go to hoplightarmor.com for some incredible body armor made in the USA, designed in the USA. H-O-P-L-I-T-E, hoplightarmor.com.
	Use discount code Ranger.
	Get yourself squared away with some body armor.
	It's the best in the business.
	Super lightweight.
	You know, certified, again, U.S. designed, U.S. engineered, the best body armor out there that I know of, and still very price competitive.
	It's not cheap like just steel plates if you want to carry around 20 pounds of steel plates.
	Yeah, those are cheaper.
	But how are you going to move with 20 pounds of steel plates all over your front and back, right?
	Give me a break.
	And one more sponsor, which is our gold and silver provider.
	This may be getting close to our last chance to get gold at current prices before another very likely spike once this Russia scenario really heats up, which could happen any day.
	I expect gold and silver will spike up quite substantially once the next phase of this war begins.
	So give our friends a call over at Treasure Island Coins and Precious Metals.
	The shortcut to get to them is metalswithmike.com.
	Check the prices live on their website before you call them.
	So you know what the prices are.
	And you'll see that they're very competitive with pricing, but they also offer silver IRAs that are IRS compliant.
	And they have discrete guaranteed delivery to get gold and silver directly into your hands where you have physical control over it.
	So again, metalswithmike.com.
	And thank you for checking out our sponsors.
	Hey, changing the subject, I had to throw this little story in here.
	This is just bizarre.
	A friend texted me today.
	He said, check out this video on YouTube.
	It's this prepper guy from Canada who thinks he's a prepper.
	You got to watch this.
	I'm like, what?
	What is it?
	He's like, you know, you just watch it, you'll see.
	So, okay.
	All right.
	I'm going to watch some prepper guy from Canada.
	So I click on it.
	Comes up.
	Yeah.
	This prepper dude from Canada talking about, he opens up the video and he says that he's been feeling under the weather.
	He's got some food poisoning because he ate a really, like a salad that had gone bad.
	Yeah.
	And he apologized to his audience and said he's been feeling down.
	He's trying to get through this food poisoning.
	And then he said to treat it, he took two Tylenol.
	I'm like, oh, to my friend, yeah, okay.
	So that's what you wanted me to see.
	Because it's hilarious.
	It's kind of sad, actually.
	This guy's got like a million subscribers or some huge number of subscribers.
	And he doesn't know how to treat food poisoning.
	Yeah.
	How can you call yourself a prepper if you don't know to treat food poisoning with chlorine dioxide?
	Chlorine dioxide knocks that out in minutes.
	Or oregano oil.
	Either one of those knocks out food poisoning in minutes because it kills the bacteria in your stomach.
	You know, stomach acid isn't very strong.
	Stomach acid doesn't kill a lot of bacteria, obviously, because you end up with bacteria in your gut from the food you eat.
	That's why you have E. coli in your gut, among other things.
	But a lot of preppers don't know anything about medicine or emergency medicine.
	And there's this tendency in the, quote, prepping world to think that it's all about weapon systems and it's guns and knives and shovels and it's, I don't know, outdoor tents and backpacks and gear.
	But a lot of these people have no knowledge.
	Like, how do you stitch up a wound?
	How do you sterilize surfaces around you?
	They never talk about povidone iodine or hydrogen peroxide or isopropyl alcohol or various sterilants or chlorine dioxide, for that matter.
	They don't even know what chlorine dioxide is.
	Again, I don't travel without chlorine dioxide.
	And chlorine dioxide is the easiest thing in the world.
	You know, it's a few drops here from bottle A, a few drops from bottle B. Boom!
	It's done.
	And I've used it a multitude of times, dealing with any kind of questionable food poisoning situation.
	Works every time.
	It's called the Universal Antidote, by the way.
	I think that's the website name.
	I'm going to try it out, theuniversalantidote.com.
	I'm guessing that's what it is, just from memory.
	Or just go to brighttown.com and search for chlorine dioxide.
	You're going to find a lot of videos about it.
	It should be the number one item in everybody's emergency first aid kit to deal with food poisoning.
	You don't take Tylenol to deal with food poisoning?
	Who gives that advice?
	I mean, seriously, Tylenol?
	Even worse, Tylenol causes liver damage, of course.
	Tylenol is acetaminophen, which permanently damages the liver in certain circumstances, especially if you combine it with any kind of alcohol.
	And if you have the wrong bacteria in your body, it can ferment alcohol, by the way.
	You could actually have permanent liver damage from that.
	And if you do take Tylenol, I mean, any prepper who knows anything about medicine...
	If they were to say take Tylenol, guess what you should take with it?
	Licorice root.
	Because licorice root contains glycerin.
	Glycerin protects liver cells from the toxicity of acetaminophen.
	I mean, how do people who call themselves preppers not know this?
	It's just astonishing to me.
	And there's this whole industry of kind of pseudo-preppers.
	Again, people who are big into gear and guns and whatever, but they don't know about the things that matter.
	Like, you know, how do you not die from cholera?
	Or food poisoning?
	Or how do you prevent a wound from getting infected?
	Or things like that.
	It's just, it's astonishing to me.
	Of course, I have a whole free audiobook on this.
	You can download it for free.
	SurvivalNutrition.com And there's a full transcript as well.
	Check it out.
	It's free.
	You can download all the MP3 files.
	Cost you nothing.
	SurvivalNutrition.com That's being turned into a full published book, by the way.
	That's in process.
	It's going to be published, I don't know, maybe this year or early next year.
	But we're working on that book.
	And it brings me to a really important point.
	If you're going to be an actual prepper, Or survivalist or whatever you want to call yourself.
	You have to have well-rounded knowledge.
	You need to understand how to treat food poisoning.
	Or how to treat infections.
	Or how to treat wounds, gunshot wounds.
	How do you stop bleeding?
	How do you apply a tourniquet with one hand?
	I mean...
	There are so many issues.
	You have to be competent in all of them.
	How do you clear a jam on an AR-15?
	How do you clear a stovepipe or a double feed on a Glock 19?
	How do you rack the slide of your pistol one-handed because your other hand got all shot up?
	Can you shoot left-handed as well as right-handed or the other way around if you're a lefty?
	You have to have a lot of skills.
	How do you navigate?
	How do you read a compass and a map?
	How do you run night vision equipment?
	How do you use a solar charger to charge small electronic devices?
	How do you engage in backup communications?
	How do you run a basic radio?
	Just like a simple little Baofeng radio system.
	You have to have knowledge in all these areas.
	Being a lopsided prepper makes you a dead person.
	You have to cover the basics in all these areas.
	Dealing with food poisoning is like prepping 101, man.
	You're out there saying, oh, take Tylenol.
	Give me a break.
	I just...
	Really?
	You know, lastly, just have discernment about where you get your, quote, prepping or survival type of information.
	There are a lot of really good, well-qualified preppers out there.
	A lot of good sources of information.
	A lot of people have been through the thick of it.
	A lot of people who have survived collapse scenarios or even war type of scenarios.
	Make sure you get your advice from people who are hands-on people.
	People who know how to do stuff.
	People who have a vast encyclopedia of knowledge.
	Because when it comes down to it, lack of knowledge is what gets you killed.
	More than anything else, lack of knowledge.
	And in a collapsed scenario, folks, more people die from infections and diarrhea than anything else.
	Seriously, study world history.
	In a collapsed scenario, it's not gunshots that kill most people.
	It's not fires.
	It's not car accidents.
	It's infections.
	It's cholera.
	It's diarrhea, folks.
	It's food poisoning.
	It's having a small scratch that gets infected and then not knowing how to deal with that.
	People relying on the pharmacy for everything.
	Oh, I have to go get Tylenol or over-the-counter medicines.
	Oh, I have to get prescription antibiotics.
	Oh, I have to get prescription ivermectin.
	It's insane.
	Did you see my video the other day on my website, prepwithmike.com and brightown.com?
	I was just showing people how to use a pipette.
	And how to dose ivermectin for agricultural use.
	If you don't know how to run a pipette, you need to learn that skill.
	What is a milliliter?
	And how do you dial in one milliliter in a pipette if it's a 1,000 microliter pipette?
	Well, the answer is you dial it to 1,000 because 1,000 microliters is one milliliter.
	And if you don't know what a microliter is or a milliliter is, then you're all lost.
	You don't know.
	Am I taking the right amount or did I take 1,000 times too much or 1,000 times too little?
	And by the way, if people are out there buying prescription ivermectin, you're getting overcharged by a factor of about 1,000 or 1,000.
	Or somewhere close to that.
	You know, I buy agricultural Iverbectin, 1% solution.
	And although I can't officially recommend anybody else do this, that's what I take for myself.
	I give the same stuff to my dogs and my goats and my donkeys that I take myself.
	Why?
	Because I'm not an idiot who wants to overpay for Big Pharma, but you have to know how to run a pipette.
	You know, it's a $50 little instrument you buy on Amazon.
	You get some pipette tips.
	It's very simple.
	You need basic medical skills, and these are basic skills.
	You need to know how to deal with the next plague that's coming.
	Ivermectin, I think, is going to play a critical role in that, and perhaps chlorine dioxide as well.
	Why do you think the FDA and the FTC and everybody, why do you think they criminalize anybody who sells chlorine dioxide?
	They threw Mark Grennan and his sons in prison.
	They've been in prison like a year and a half now.
	In South America, because they had a ministry that was selling chlorine dioxide.
	Yeah, they got arrested and thrown in prison.
	They're still there.
	At the request of the U.S. State Department, by the way.
	Yeah, because they were selling chlorine dioxide and educating people about that.
	Folks, you need to learn this stuff.
	Learn how to make your own chlorine dioxide.
	You know how to make it?
	You know how to make it?
	It's very simple.
	You need a source of acid.
	It could be citric acid, which is easy to buy.
	You can buy that on Amazon.
	A source of citric acid or some other kind of acid that is safe to consume.
	A very small dilute amount of even hydrochloric acid is what a lot of people use.
	And what's the other ingredient that goes into it?
	Sodium chloride.
	Sodium chloride.
	R-I-T-E. Not chloride, but sodium chloride.
	Did you know that you can stockpile sodium chloride?
	You can buy it on Amazon right now.
	You can stockpile it.
	I have.
	You can stockpile that stuff.
	And then it's pretty easy to find natural sources of acid.
	You could even use like You can squeeze an orange or a lemon, and you can get acid out of that.
	It's like citrus fruit acid, citric acid, right?
	Or vinegar.
	There's lots of sources of acid.
	But if you stockpile sodium chloride, you are stockpiling the potential to make a very powerful antiseptic and something that kills COVID on surfaces, for example.
	Again, I'm just astonished that people don't know this.
	It's just incredible.
	I mean, right now, you can go on Amazon.com and you can buy a chlorine dioxide kit, you know, a couple of bottles for 40 bucks, or you can make it yourself for 40 cents, you know.
	Knowledge goes a long way.
	Knowledge.
	I mean, the ingredients are dirt cheap.
	Folks, whatever.
	Get the knowledge.
	And I know if you're listening to this podcast, you are very knowledgeable.
	You're very well informed.
	You are legitimate, real preppers, if you even listen to half of what I talk about.
	But understand, you're living in a world where there are a lot of sort of, I don't know, mainstream fashionable preppers who want to call themselves preppers, but they don't know anything when it counts.
	There's a lot of those people out there.
	And sadly, they're not going to do very well.
	Sadly.
	All right, moving on.
	Welcome to the Health Ranger Report here on Brighton.tv.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighton.
	And today we've got a very important conversation with two industrial hygienists.
	We're going to be talking about the pollution in the toxic bomb fallout from East Palestine or whatever you want to call it.
	We've got Tammy Clark, who's an industrial hygienist and also an expert in environmental health.
	She's a safety professional.
	She's the VP of Stand Up Michigan.
	And also, Kristen Megan joins us.
	She's on the advisory board to Stand Up Michigan, which you can find at StandUpMichigan.com.
	And they both joined me today to talk about what's happening in Ohio and also the rest of America.
	So welcome to the show, both Tammy and Kristen.
	It's great to have you here.
	Thank you.
	Thanks for having us.
	Absolutely.
	Well, let's begin with this.
	How about just a couple of quick introductions?
	Our audience has, you know, I've interviewed Kristen before, but I haven't interviewed you before, Tammy.
	So could you give us a quick background of Stand Up Michigan and what you're doing with that organization?
	Okay, yeah.
	So I got involved with Stand Up Michigan when they were looking for a vice president.
	Stand Up Michigan was born out of a sense of righteous anger over the excessive quarantines and lockdowns.
	Garrett Saldano started a Facebook group.
	He's a chiropractor from Michigan who eventually ran for governor.
	He just felt like I can't be the only one feeling like this is not right, this is excessive.
	He was a business owner who stood up.
	I was a business owner running a consulting firm and I started following this Facebook group and within just a very short time they realized that they needed to turn this Facebook group into an organization and so that's when I was hired.
	As the vice president to help grow a very large organization quickly to be very influential at both the state and national levels.
	So we've been very busy and very involved helping to solidify not only our counties, but our state and national freedoms for the state of Michigan.
	My background is very similar to Kristen's as an industrial hygienist and environmental health and safety professional.
	And that's when I stood up and blew the whistle on OSHA and the government for their revisionism, violating their own standards, regulations and protocols.
	For handling a pandemic, PPE control measures and things like that.
	So three years ago...
	I was just busy minding my own business, and here I am today.
	Here you are.
	That kind of describes a lot of America.
	We were all just trying to, you know, mind our own business, raise kids, grow food, earn an income, and then wham!
	Okay, Kristen, our audience may be more familiar with you because we've spoken before this way, but could you give us a quick introduction?
	And you've had a major impact, Kristen, on this whole debate.
	You've been vindicated again and again.
	So give us your background, if you would, please.
	Yeah, so I kind of was propelled into the health freedom movement.
	I believe Natural News was the first site to cover my whistleblowing from the Air Force regarding geoengineering and weather modification.
	And then just I've been standing up holding those that took an oath accountable from health freedom, our politicians, police accountability, just promoting peace.
	But, you know, I've been doing so in a nonviolent manner and I've been lending my expertise to many Different court cases around the country where rights are being infringed.
	That focuses on my profession.
	And then, of course, we had the scandemic occur.
	And then that's how I met Tammy.
	She saw me doing an interview, found out we lived 20 miles from each other.
	And we have been known as the dynamic duo.
	And we have traveled around the country in our own time for the past three years, shutting down mandates, thought we could get a break, and then...
	The EPA decided to drop the ball in Ohio.
	Indeed.
	We'll talk about that in a second, but I want to give a shout out to you, Kristen, because you're a veteran and you have a podcast with We the Patriots.
	And isn't that called Vets and Visionaries?
	Is that it?
	Yes, it is.
	Vets and Visionaries with me, Kristen Megan.
	And my shows air 8 a.m.
	Eastern every Monday.
	Okay, that's awesome.
	And that's with WeThePatriots.org.
	Is that where people find that or where do people get there?
	WeThePatriotsUSA.org.
	I'm sorry, WeThePatriots, yeah.
	But the podcast in video format premieres on the Rumble channel of WeThePatriotsUSA and then everywhere it's audio version where you find your favorite podcasts.
	Okay, awesome.
	We've got to simulcast your podcast over on Brighton Radio, too.
	We should talk after the show.
	Your voice is really critical for this debate, so let's see what we can do to help get you more distribution.
	I think that'd be great.
	Okay, now, getting to Ohio.
	Yeah, I mean, the American people get it.
	It's a massive cover-up.
	The EPA is just as bad as the FDA and the CDC and the USDA and so on.
	Starting with you, Tammy, what's your summary of what happened in East Palestine?
	Didn't you just come back from there?
	Yes, so Kristen and I were actually asked to speak at the national press conference that We the Patriots USA put on announcing the lawsuit against the EPA where we will both be expert witnesses.
	So we went to Akron, Ohio At the federal courthouse to announce this lawsuit.
	And from there, we knew we needed to go to East Palestine, which was only about 45 minutes from Akron, to see for ourselves really what was happening on the ground.
	And it was a good thing we did because what we realized when we saw the lack of testing, improper sampling methods, improper sampling media being used, we realized that this is much worse than even we anticipated.
	And Kristen can get into a little bit of that as well.
	But basically they're making things worse by doing improper remediation controls, not using the proper sampling media, and trying to remediate before we even know what it is we're dealing with yet.
	Yeah, that definitely confirms what I'm getting from other experts as well.
	I'm going to be interviewing also an EPA whistleblower that will join us about this at some point, I think, later this week.
	But, Kristen, yeah, tell us what you saw, because you're trained to understand the flow of contaminants, especially airborne toxins, contaminants, workplace hazards, and so on.
	So what did you observe that alarmed you?
	Well, first I want to say I am an industrial hygienist, but I'm one of the few industrial hygienists that's also worked in sea burning events, chemical, biological, radiation, nuclear, and explosives.
	So I worked in bio-environmental engineering in the Air Force.
	So I trained and responded to railroad incidents of fuel spills, haz material spills.
	So I have used some of the equipment that I noted was not being utilized.
	So aside from symptoms that we felt, which was burning throats, coughs, our tongue tingling, going numb, My eyes kind of itchy burning is that I saw they were using SUMA samplers.
	They were using real-time area multi-rays made by Honeywell, which are great for certain situations, but that's for establishing a cordon or an evacuation zone or hot zone.
	That is not going to provide data because what happens is the equipment that they're using Let me just say that they are kind of pulling the hood over everyone's head here because they're making it look like they're doing things, but the things that they're doing aren't going to properly identify hazards and ignores cumulative dose and synergistic toxicity.
	So for example, they sit and they use PIDs, the photoionizing detectors, and it's not going to pick up...
	Non-carbon binding compounds.
	It's not going to pick up the wide array of contaminants that we have here.
	It's just looking at a group of chemicals rather than specific chemicals.
	And again, a lot of these chemicals are more harmful when you combine them.
	That's the cumulative dose.
	But the main thing that Tammy was referring to is that they're doing air quote remediation efforts That are creating greater hazards.
	So they're doing aeration of the water, and then what is happening?
	Whenever you agitate or aerate water that has hydrocarbons, VOCs, or inorganic or organic compounds, these things can create gases and vapors that are then again reintroduced into the breathing zone.
	So why are we doing these remediation efforts when people are right there?
	There's no taping off of things.
	There's no cordons.
	Mike, no one is saying don't go in the water.
	That's incredible.
	Go ahead.
	Well, and yeah, you mentioned the bioaccumulation of these toxins.
	Now, the EPA, of course, classifies dioxins, which I want to ask you both about dioxins.
	Dioxins are known as persistent bioaccumulative toxins, or PBTs, and persistent, just for our viewers, I know that you know this, but for our viewers, persistent means they stick around in the environment, in this case, for centuries.
	Bioaccumulative means that they accumulate up the food chain, So if you're consuming meat or dairy, eggs, anything like that, from these areas where those animals grazed on contaminated grasses or grains, then you're getting a much higher concentration in your fat-soluble tissues.
	And then the tea toxins, of course, these are toxic.
	And dioxins are toxic at extremely low concentrations.
	We're talking about either picograms or femtograms of exposure.
	That's known to cause biological effects and hormone disruption in people.
	So I want to ask you both, why do you both think that the EPA, I should say, neither the EPA nor the state of Ohio is testing for dioxins that we know of, that they're telling us?
	We'll start with you, Tammy.
	What's your take on that?
	Well, that's a really good question, and that's what we've been asking ourselves and trying to connect all the dots with everything that we know from a bigger worldview perspective.
	With things that we have seen that the World Economic Forum has put out and some of those types of conversations.
	And then you also look at the fact that we know that the trains moving through are moving through every 10 minutes.
	They're very, very long trains carrying a lot of cargo.
	In my opinion, what I saw, I actually said to Kristen, this is like standing in a Chicago rail yard.
	This is unbelievable, the amount of traffic on these train tracks.
	The trains are too long.
	They're too heavy loaded.
	I think there's a lot of financial incentive and push behind this, which, you know, part of that I understand, but you don't put human lives and the environment at risk because of money.
	You just can't do that.
	That's very unethical.
	So there are a lot of different moving parts and pieces to this.
	The government does not like to admit that they're wrong.
	They do not want to step anything back, walk anything back, admit they were wrong.
	Now there's liability issues and there's going to be big payouts.
	And lawsuits.
	And I think there's some of that going on.
	And I think, you know, part of it too is they just want to sweep this under the rug.
	They know that 99% of Americans cannot talk the talk that we are all talking right now.
	The chemistry, the acronyms, the industrial hygiene language, most Americans have no idea.
	So when they do sampling to obtain a number that they want to obtain, and if you do sampling improperly, or if you intentionally don't test for some things, you're not going to find those things.
	I think that they're doing that on purpose because then they can just quickly move on, get the trains running again.
	Nothing to see here, folks.
	But there's a part of me, kind of in the back of my mind, there's a little bit of nagging, like, there's something more nefarious going on here.
	And I was talking with Daniel Horowitz about this today because he said, don't you kind of feel like this is COVID 2.0?
	Like, we're dealing with the COVID situation all over again, just with a different aspect of, you know, our lives, transportation and the environment.
	And I said, I do.
	I have that same nagging feeling that something is not right that I had in the beginning of COVID. Well, and so let me direct this then to Kristen, but let me add that the EPA, last week a spokesperson from the EPA said that the reason they cannot test, and I can't wait for you to tear this apart, Kristen, but the reason they cannot test is because they don't have a baseline of what the level of dioxins were before the accident.
	So what would you say to that?
	That's about as dumb as saying I'm not going to check the status of your cancer because I wasn't your original doctor to know the size of your original tumor.
	Just like you said, dioxins are very hazardous at low detection limits.
	But their excuse for why they didn't want a sample was we might have an issue with backyard grilling interfering with the actual quality of the test.
	Any scientist that studies this knows you need a chlorine to create the dioxins.
	So I'm sorry, just grilling your burgers isn't going to really contribute to dioxins.
	People burning their trash can, but let's not insult the American people.
	But to answer the question that you first asked Tammy, it's obvious.
	I mean, I'm not trying to be a conspiracy theorist.
	I'm a conspiracy realist.
	It is very obvious that they are doing improper sampling, not conveying proper risk communication.
	And like Tammy said, they throw these samples that are actually incorrect samples.
	Onto the EPA website, and even I think a low-level IH technician starting out their career would have a hard time analyzing this.
	They have CAS numbers instead of chemical names.
	They're making it really hard for the average layperson to understand this.
	And this is a key aspect of all of my training of emergency response, hazardous material response, and how you convey this technical information to non-technical personnel.
	But I actually just spent, and this is why I'm tongue-tied.
	Tammy just peer-reviewed my affidavit.
	It's so long.
	I really tore apart the EPA in exposing all of the wrong testing down to the detail.
	I'll send you a copy for your reading if you want it, Mike.
	Please do.
	I'm embarrassed for them because I've been doing this for 20 years, and I know some of their employees have been doing it a lot longer.
	And I'm so glad that you say there's a whistleblower because A lot of people, including people on the ground that we can't name, work in our profession that live there, Have you even noticed that they use the wrong sampling media?
	This is egregious.
	It's incredible, Kristen, what you're saying.
	We need to collaborate, your group, with my lab, because our laboratory, we've already put out the purchase for a dioxin testing add-on, a GC, to one of the triple quad mass spec instruments that we've had for many years.
	We run glyphosate on that instrument.
	But we're adding an atmospheric pressure gas chromatography interface, APGC, and we'll be able...
	That instrument, by the way, you'll appreciate this, it can detect two femtograms of dioxin injected on column, on the chromatography column.
	So two femtograms found in a one microliter injection, which is pretty amazing.
	That's the sensitivity of it.
	We're going to be testing that here in a few months, but we need someone like you who understands how to get samples correctly, chain of custody, proper sampling technique, documentation, GPS location, all of these things.
	Is there some way that you could help advise or help us acquire some samples that we could test?
	Yes, I actually have been working with somebody who I won't name at this time who's familiar with doing these type of legal Improper chain of custody samples.
	I've been advising them on the proper PPE to wear, and they're going there this week.
	I am five hours away from the site, but I could go back.
	My issue is I can no longer tolerate wearing respiratory protection due to medical issues, so a lot of my fieldwork I have to subcontract or refer out.
	But I just want to point out in my affidavit, I also mentioned the first thing they should have done is utilize a portable GCMS to identify targeted chemicals.
	Right.
	And then work their way out and gone, OK, we're going to sample for organic or inorganic.
	We need different media.
	Some things dissipate in air quickly.
	Some things are in the sediment.
	Some things float on the water.
	It's like they didn't look at the hazard specific.
	They just went, oh, this is a group of chemicals.
	But they all can behave differently.
	Yeah, they're trying not to find anything.
	No, it's silly.
	I mean, any of us who have any kind of scientific training, we look at the EPA, and it is embarrassing.
	Tammy, do you think there's enough pressure being put on the EPA where they're going to be forced to do something?
	Or would the state of Ohio maybe come around and start doing something here?
	Well, I think some of that is going to depend on pressure from Congress.
	And this is what I've been saying a lot.
	I'm very disappointed in this new bill that just came out about, you know, focusing on rail safety.
	Like, where's the, you know, concern about the EPA's mass criminal negligence in their handling of these situations?
	I mean, who cares?
	We have the Railroad Association.
	We have the DOT and the Federal Railroad Administration.
	And their job is to make sure they maintain the tracks, make sure things are safe.
	They're just simply not doing their job.
	We don't need new laws along those lines.
	Now, I do think that it was really good that they did add that there is a requirement now with the new bill that had bipartisan support, so that's good, that they do have to now inform local fire departments and HAZMAT teams when they're bringing any sort of chemicals through town.
	The Railroad Association through their lobbyists were able to get loopholes in that.
	There is a DOT requirement.
	A reporting requirement that, you know, when a train is bringing the hazardous materials through, they do need to report that.
	But, of course, the railroads are the oldest and most powerful lobbyist organization in America.
	They built America, so talk about power, right?
	But they were able to close that loophole, so now the trains that are transporting hazardous materials, liquids, gases, whatever it might be, they do have to report To all the municipalities that they're moving those things through.
	So they've closed that loophole.
	That's good.
	But I think the only way we're going to actually see any sort of change with the EPA, OSHA, the DOT, any of these regulatory agencies that have been weaponized against the American people and are now the biggest perpetrators of harm is through congressional oversight, through defunding them through the appropriations committees.
	That's my big call to action.
	And that's where I want to see pressure because these, you know, silly bills that You know, like I said today, I feel like it's like slapping lipstick on a pig.
	That might make people feel a little better, but that is ultimately not going to change anything.
	Okay, a quick reminder to those watching, the website is standupmichigan.com if you want to follow all of this.
	And of course, Kristen is with We the Patriots with Brian Festa.
	Is that dot org or dot com?
	Yeah, WeThePatriotsUSA.org.
	Oh, USA.org.
	Okay, great.
	Now, Kristen, let me ask your response to this.
	The original responders to this disaster, they were reportedly told that they had to incinerate their own PPE, so the equipment that they wore in to respond.
	That could not just be washed and ever used again.
	It was too dangerous to ever touch human skin again.
	What does that tell you about the nature of the chemicals that were released in this case?
	Well, that's another issue, too, because it seems that, you know, I looked at a lot of drone footage and the day of the burn, you know, they should have been in full SCBA. And there are situations where certain PPE cannot be reused because it can really wear away at the masks and even corrode the tanks of oxygen.
	Um, but that is something I've been talking about in my, uh, kind of legal documentation is the people in the community looked at all of the contractors just days later after being in, you know, full PPE. And all of a sudden, all they have on is butyl gloves and a hard hat in like rain gear.
	Wow.
	I mean, how do you go from level A to just some butyl gloves and a raincoat?
	You look like Paddington bear with a face shield.
	I mean, it was ridiculous.
	And this type of failure by these agencies, again, improper risk communication, you have people that are outside in their yard and are like, oh, these people cleaning it up that are at the source are fine, but they're not fine.
	I'm seeing lots of articles come out that these people have migraines, blurry vision, burning throats.
	Actually, today, I'll keep this person nameless, but someone that we talked to while we were there sent me pictures.
	They have clear evidence of chloracne on their face.
	Really?
	And all they've done is shower in their home.
	Okay, wait a second, because I talked about this, that we would begin to see chloracne.
	And by the way, I know from previous research that chloracne can sometimes take up to 12 months to emerge after exposure, which is quite shocking.
	Can you explain chloracne to the audience in case people aren't familiar with it?
	Yeah, it's very similar to contact dermatitis.
	It's your body's immune response to being exposed to a hazardous chemical.
	And it's certain chemicals that can cause this, like dioxins, volatile organic compounds, certain inorganic compounds can.
	But it can cause blistering of the skin.
	It can look like teenage acne without kind of, not to be gross, but like whiteheads.
	They're like pustules or they can look like a rash, but it will almost look like chicken pox.
	And sometimes steroids can help this, and then people can get addicted to those steroids.
	But my problem is this person who communicated this to me is someone who has been going in and out of the area, told me they've used no new detergent, no new products or makeup, and they've just been showering in their home.
	And that's another issue.
	I want to give a shout out to, I don't know this person's name, but he had a shirt on at a press conference three days ago in East Palestine from AquaTech.
	And boy, did he call out all the improper sampling of the EPA. Andy talked about how these are very shallow aquifers, and it's going to be sooner rather than later that this is in the groundwater.
	So this does not shock me.
	And the fact that there's data online I've seen move, and it talks about water tables and distances, and those numbers keep changing.
	And I'm not fabricating that, because I'm the one that was looking it up three days ago for my affidavit.
	And then I look again this morning and the distance changes.
	Why is data changing?
	It's just fudging the numbers or retroactively altering them.
	But about the chloracne, you know, and we've covered this at Natural News, but you can suffer chloracne from airborne contact.
	In other words, you don't have to touch a liquid or anything.
	It can just be airborne.
	Tammy, what...
	Are you familiar with the, gosh, I think I have it right here, the history of Monsanto and Dow and Basif and the industrial accidents they had, which caused chloracne.
	I've got all the paperwork here.
	Are you familiar with all that?
	Oh, yeah.
	Chloracne and many other different things.
	In fact, our colleague Steven Petty is the lead exposure scientist on those cases and is really doing a great job exposing them.
	And we're hoping that we can see the same kind of accountability with the EPA and other government agencies who have been the greatest perpetrators of harm to the American people.
	The agencies that were created to protect people and protect the environment are now the ones causing the greater hazards that they're supposed to be, you know, avoiding.
	And so we've followed these court cases.
	Kristen and I have testified in many court cases in front of many different legislative bodies around the country the past few years.
	And we're very close with Steven Petty, like who I said, is the lead exposure scientist for the Monsanto Roundup cases.
	And so we're really hoping that our team, now that's come together over the past few years, can really put enough pressure on Congress to begin to do investigations.
	And then hopefully, you know, through the Appropriations Committee, defunding and then privatizing these organizations.
	Because, you know, ultimately they've proven that they cannot handle the power that they've been given. - Oh yeah. - They're not doing what they're supposed to do.
	They're causing great harm.
	So why in the world would we give them more money to continue to harm the American people in our environment?
	I can't think of a three-letter or a four-letter government agency that isn't now weaponized against the people at this point.
	I mean, I can't think of one.
	I mean, Kristen, you've been in this space for quite some time.
	You saw all the scientific fraud with COVID, and now you're seeing it with East Palestine.
	Doesn't it feel like we're kind of living in a 1980s Soviet Union, USSR government cover-up?
	Of everything?
	I mean, worse than a cover-up, a deliberate attack on the people in the case of COVID, for sure.
	But what's your take on all this?
	Yeah, you know, I wish I could still fit in my Make Orwell Fiction Again t-shirt, because it's exactly what we're seeing.
	And the unfortunate aspects of this...
	We do have good things that come out of it, and that is people are waking up to how useless these alphabet agencies are, and they think that the government is going to save us all, just like people think that all doctors know everything and all white coats know everything.
	No, it's about individual ethics.
	It's about specific areas of study.
	And, you know, this isn't my first go-around with the EPA. The EPA, and this is why I focus more on the IH profession rather than environmental, but I'm still credentialed in both, is because I've watched the EPA for years ignore Large corporations contributing to mass pollution, including our own government and military.
	But then like these little mom and pop shops get caught, you know, not putting a drum on a pallet with, you know, secondary containment.
	And, you know, they're facing these giant fines.
	This is about a money grab.
	I think we should have a third party, non-government affiliated contractor Have bids put in.
	Have multiple people do it.
	See if they can come up with the same outcomes.
	But there are safer ways to remediate this.
	But the first thing that they need to do, Mike, is get these people the hell out of the town.
	What is really infuriating me the most, you talk about dioxins, you talk about hydrocarbons.
	I already have some data on some sampling that came back that I cannot speak to right now.
	But let me tell you, it really needs to be conveyed that nursing mothers need to know.
	I was just going to talk about this.
	It's not only nursing mothers, but of course, you know, pregnant women, the neurodevelopmental risk from exposure to these toxins is, I mean, we're talking children, I mean, if the mother's exposed to dioxins, children can be born missing limbs.
	And that has happened before, and it will likely happen again.
	I'm terrified of what happens there over the next 12 months, but no one's being told the truth about this.
	Tam, we talk about the importance of children, expectant mothers, but also young women of childbearing age who may become pregnant.
	The importance of all of that right now, please.
	Yes, so Kristen and I have been, we actually created a sub-stack called Truth Exposed.
	We are just getting it started because of our concern for the people of East Palestine who are not being told any of this information.
	One of the main concerns for us has been pregnant women.
	First trimester, there may be very high levels of miscarriage.
	Second trimester, there may be very high levels of birth defects.
	We know that these dioxins cause very serious birth defects, learning disabilities and things like that.
	And then, of course, you know, breastfeeding mothers.
	Well, even in the third trimester, when those neurological connections are still being formed in the developing baby's brains, that's when you can see things, you know, that are affected causing neurological or neurodegenerative disorders, even in the third trimester.
	And then, of course, leaching into the breast milk.
	The babies then are still being...
	you know expose and ingesting so then even as they're still developing up to the age of four their immune systems are developing the neurological connections are still being formed and so if you interfere with that in any way you can end up with things like ADD, ADHD, autism, learning disabilities and so we are very very concerned for young women of reproductive age And pregnant women and nursing mothers.
	And then, of course, the young children still, you know, up to the age of four or five who don't even have all of the neurological connections formed, completely formed yet.
	So that's why Kristen and I have said, I know this is hard and we don't want to scare people, but you need to get out.
	You need to leave.
	Staying there, being exposed over this long term.
	It's not the same as an acute exposure, which is bad enough.
	Both of you plan to potentially testify as expert witnesses in the lawsuit that's been filed.
	We interviewed Brian Festa last week, as you know, to announce that lawsuit.
	Is that the case?
	You're both going to testify?
	Well, you know, I would hope that we don't even need to actually testify in person.
	You know, I have written an affidavit, which is Quite clear that everything is wrong.
	Basically, my affidavit is just a spoiler alert.
	As I was writing it, things I said would happen is already happening.
	So I'm hoping that there's just injunctive relief.
	It's like an administrative hearing.
	I'm no lawyer.
	I don't know The process of how it happens, but I hope this is very fast because this is the only nonprofit lawsuit that goes after the EPA, Governor DeWine, and the local public health officials because they're the only ones that have the power to evacuate these people and activate financial support to rehome them And get the businesses the financial aid that they need.
	During COVID, if we can forgive student loans or attempt to, and we can house people that are crossing the border illegally and getting all these benefits, even some better benefits than I get as a veteran, we can help the people of East Palestine.
	So that's the goal of this lawsuit.
	So I'm hoping we don't actually have to testify in person.
	I'm thinking that administrative data that we can produce is enough.
	But yes, we are willing, and there are other people in the wings that are willing to step up.
	And our colleagues are involved in other litigation that, you know, they're kind of gagged at this point, so I'm not sure what type of lawsuit they're in.
	But, you know, I can say that you have the right people with the right ethics that are willing to speak up.
	And this isn't conjecture, this isn't opinion.
	I have all the government manuals, EPA standards, even the violations of OSHA standards from these workers not wearing correct PPE, I mean, trust me, I worked for the government for 12 years, so it's kind of hard to humanize someone that you trained.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Okay, as we're getting close to wrapping this up, let me ask you both, I guess, the final question, sort of a political angle on this.
	Historically, most of the groups that were more vocal about environmental pollution and contamination tended to be more liberal or left-wing groups.
	And right now, this kind of event in East Palestine, at least what I'm seeing, but I want your reaction, I'm seeing a real coming together of we the people.
	The American people, regardless of politics, nobody wants mutant children being born in your city.
	Nobody wants to live in a toxic stew of pollution.
	The left, the right, at this point, for something like this especially, doesn't matter.
	The government is increasingly being seen as the The blockade or even the enemy of the people.
	What are you seeing out there since you just came from East Palestine?
	I'll start with you, Tammy.
	What are you seeing in terms of the groups that are involved?
	And is what I said accurate?
	It's across the spectrum politically or is it something different?
	Well, I am actually very, very surprised that the liberal environmental groups are not all over this.
	I was really surprised that it took Pete Buttigieg three weeks to get there.
	Biden, where's he?
	Over in Ukraine, giving them millions of dollars.
	Where's the environmental groups?
	I mean, we had Erin Brockovich show up, you know, and she's an activist, very passionate like we are.
	But where's Greta?
	You know, she just wrote a new book.
	I am absolutely blown away that the liberal environmental groups that are all about the climate and the environment are nowhere to be found.
	And in fact, We have even had some of our interviews canceled off of Facebook.
	They won't even let us talk about this.
	And it's crazy to me because I thought, wait a minute, this isn't political to us.
	This is science.
	This is about keeping people healthy and safe.
	Why are the liberal left now crickets on this and not allowing us to talk about it when you would think they'd be all over this?
	So it's very telling, actually.
	Yeah, you would think.
	Kristen, what's your take?
	Well, from meeting the amazing, kind, and selfless people there in East Palestine, I did not even get a sense of what their political leanings were.
	But I did hear it's a very red area.
	But it's very disheartening on Twitter.
	When I post something about a video or an interview, I drop my podcast today of our ground coverage, and I get tweets that say, this is Trump's fault.
	Listen, Ron Paul is my hero.
	I don't care if it was Jesus.
	I don't care who could have changed a rule.
	It doesn't matter.
	None of that matters.
	What matters is that human health is being impacted, and our long-term impacts on the environment can affect people in mass quantities, like you said, because of going through the food chain.
	Can we just put all this stuff aside and stop immediately trying to find a side to blame and go, this is messed up, and that the EPA shouldn't be left or right?
	I mean, this is a federal agency that is not doing their job.
	But you have people that are always going to point a finger.
	And it's really sad.
	I cannot believe I've heard people say it's their own fault because they voted for Trump.
	Yeah, dioxins don't care about your political affiliation right there.
	That is a non-discriminatory molecule with four chlorine atoms on the corner, which makes it practically unbreakable, by the way.
	Hence the persistent nature of this chemical.
	Okay, wrapping this up, this has already been fascinating.
	I really hope that you both can keep in touch with me about what's going on and the status of your lawsuits.
	I'd love to get a copy of your affidavit, by the way, Kristen.
	And then once we get our lab equipment up and running, we'd love to collaborate with you on some proper testing of some samples and see what's going on, even with the food supply.
	But final thoughts, start with you, Tammy.
	What would you like to leave our audience with here today?
	Well, I just want people to understand that it's very, very important for us to open our eyes and recognize the bigger picture of what's happening because we're watching things happen like in clusters.
	First, we were dealing with everybody had to shelter in place.
	Everybody had to quarantine.
	Everybody had to test.
	Everybody had to mask.
	Okay, we got through that.
	That whole thing has been debunked.
	We all know what a farce all of that was.
	There was no science or evidence-based practice being followed there.
	Now, all of a sudden, we're dealing with meat processing plants on fire, poultry plants, eggs.
	I mean, it's just one thing after another.
	Now, all the train derailments, all the hazardous chemical spills, and the environmental contaminant issues that we're dealing with, it's like everything is happening in clusters.
	And all along the way, it is the government that is the biggest perpetrator and behind all of this and all of these government agencies that are actually causing great harm and interfering with our lives and our health and our safety.
	So I want people to just wake up.
	I mean, when pre-COVID did this kind of thing happen in our world?
	It didn't.
	And so it's very interesting with everything that now some of the agendas are being pushed on the World Economic Forum website and, you know, through some of the Davos Summit hearings now that they're very public, they're discussing with world leaders.
	I want people to wake up and just be able to take the blinders off and start connecting the dots for themselves because This is what we're dealing with.
	We're dealing with a very nefarious plot behind the scenes, and this is not accidental.
	And I'm not saying every single accident is intentional, but the whole thing, the big picture, we need to zoom out and start looking at things from that 30,000-foot view and get involved and stop just accepting these things and going along.
	Exactly.
	Okay, well said, Kristen.
	Your final thoughts as we wrap this up today?
	I just want to say that regardless of I do remember it was a time in my life where regardless of what was going on in the world, everyone united.
	Every travesty or incident in this country does not need to be political.
	When people are being truly harmed, we need to unite and hold people accountable that can correct it.
	And just like we saw during COVID, we saw an infection fatality rate be overblown that forced mandates, useless control measures, And those of us that could have provided solutions were silenced.
	Now we have a situation where there's actually an extreme hazard, and I believe a lot of unknown hazards, and the improper response, lack of risk communication, and the lack of trust that has been built through this, I think we're going to have immediate and long-term health effects and major impacts on the environment there.
	So we just need to unite and understand.
	You can point fingers later, but right now, we need to take care of people.
	It's no different than a woman We're good to go.
	So we are not here to be ambulance chasers.
	We know how unsafe this is without scaring you.
	I need you to understand the need for the injunctive relief right now.
	Well said, Kristen.
