	Welcome to the situation update for Wednesday, March 8th, 2023.
	I'm Mike Adams.
	Thank you for joining me here in the Bright Town Studios.
	And we're going to begin on Censored.News.
	And in case you haven't visited Censored.News, I'm putting the headlines there myself of what I'm going to be talking about.
	These are the things that are the breaking news items here in the top half of the site.
	And then beneath that, in this section, these are automated, spidered headlines.
	We've got the Epoch Times and Infowars and Blacklisted News and, you know, a bunch of others, Climate Depot, on and on.
	And these are the top censored websites on the web.
	Be sure to check it out, censored.news.
	But these handpicked headlines here is what I'm going to cover for today, at least in the studio segment.
	And this one caught my eye here.
	U.S. court rules that trans weightlifters can compete against women.
	Yeah, this is from Newspunch.com.
	I just thought, of all the sports that should truly be segregated by sex, weightlifting would seem to be the one.
	You know, men have, on average, far more physical mass, especially in their upper body, you know, muscle mass, than do women.
	But now, I guess, women's weightlifting is going to be history.
	Because here we have the Minnesota State Court has ruled, this is from News Punch, that USA powerlifting must include biological men who identify as women in the women's division of competition.
	So can you imagine that?
	It's like, oh wow, congratulations sir, you won the women's gold medal.
	And it's like, it's ma'am!
	It's like, don't call me sir!
	Don't get your panties in a bunch there.
	And why are you wearing a bra again?
	You're a dude.
	You're a dude in power weightlifting.
	Something's not right here, but that's just part of the insane culture.
	Now, moving on to the next story.
	This one out of the Telegraph.
	American tourists kidnapped in Mexico while looking for cheaper tummy tuck doctor.
	So you probably heard about these Americans.
	They were kidnapped and two of them were shot and killed by Mexican drug cartels.
	Turns out What were they doing in Mexico?
	They were trying to save money on cosmetic surgery, it turns out.
	You know, the deep, deep, deep rural Mexican discount, which is probably never a great idea.
	And somehow they were mistaken for Haitian drug smugglers, which makes no sense whatsoever.
	They didn't seem to look Haitian, didn't speak Creole.
	I don't know what went wrong, but folks...
	Maybe don't go for the cheapest Mexican rural surgical procedure that you can find online.
	Just saying.
	But by the way, I also think it's odd that the American media is happy to talk about, maybe not happy, but willing to talk about American tourists being murdered by drug cartels in Mexico, but they won't mention one million plus American people being murdered by big pharma drug cartels in America with the jab, right?
	We'll never talk about that.
	Alright, moving on.
	Next story from CNBC. Fed Chair Powell says interest rates are, quote, likely to be higher than previously anticipated.
	In other words, this is Powell saying, rates are going up.
	They're going to continue to go up.
	So what do you think that's going to do to auto sales, home sales?
	The economy is going to contract because Powell is basically strangling it with higher and higher interest rates.
	And what do you think is going to happen here to even, by the way, food inflation and the devaluation of the dollar?
	That's going to accelerate.
	The economy is being imploded.
	In fact, there was a story here by Michael Snyder.
	Countless Americans plunge into despair as hunger spreads like wildfire all across America.
	And he's talking about people standing in line for nine hours to get to a food bank.
	To get some food from a food bank.
	Oh, that reminds me.
	A few hours ago, I was looking at the final list of our food and supplement donations.
	And...
	It's probably not too early for me to say this.
	I think we're going to bring it all in here and actually show it on camera before we put it on pallets and ship it out.
	So we're donating to two organizations.
	One of them is Harvest Time.
	And I don't have the name of the other organization, but I can tell you, I mean, I'll get it for you.
	I can tell you we're donating over $100,000 worth of food and supplements to hungry Americans.
	That's what we're doing.
	And we'll have it here, like I said, at least some of it in studio.
	We'll put it on pallets.
	We'll ship it out.
	We'll give you the final numbers.
	People are going hungry.
	The so-called food insecurity is worsening across America.
	Famine, starvation.
	Just as we predicted, and when I say we, I mean people like myself and David Dubine and Michael Yan and so many other experts, you know, Steve Quayle and so on.
	We all predicted this, and a lot of other people did too.
	I don't mean to leave anybody out.
	We predicted this.
	There's grocery rationing in the UK right now.
	The vegetables are being rationed.
	There's mass famine and hunger in certain areas of America, and it's only going to get worse.
	So we're going to do our part.
	Donate food and supplements and try to feed as many people as we can, but the situation is...
	Definitely dire.
	Okay.
	Moving on.
	Let's see.
	That was the interest rate story.
	Next story.
	Oh, this is some good news.
	Ann Vandersteel sent me this.
	Ann Vandersteel has a new show with us on brighteon.tv that you can't miss.
	It's called Right Now with Ann Vandersteel.
	You'll definitely want to check that out.
	It's on brighteon.tv.
	I think it's at 8 p.m.
	Eastern, Monday through Friday.
	I'm going to have Ann Vandersteel on as a guest, too, to talk about her show.
	But she sent me this link, which is really cool.
	Check this out.
	This talks about how chlorine dioxide destroys dioxins.
	And remember, here's the dioxin molecule.
	Remember this?
	I need to get this printed out on a bigger format with color.
	That's the dioxin molecule.
	This is what's falling out of the sky following the East Palestine train catastrophe.
	You know, the Pete Buttigieg special right there, or the Governor DeWine special.
	That's fallen out of the sky.
	Turns out you can destroy dioxins using chlorine dioxide.
	And this article, this science article published in Science Direct, says destruction of PCDD, they're talking about 2378 PCDD, and PCDF in bleached pulp by chlorine dioxide treatment.
	And what they found is they were able to destroy anywhere from about 40% to 70%.
	Yeah, here it is.
	Between 39% and 69% of the values were destroyed by chlorine dioxide.
	So they were able to reduce it by, let's say, as much as two-thirds.
	That's fascinating to me because it means that if you're growing vegetables and you're getting fallout of dioxins from the sky...
	If you wash those vegetables using chlorine dioxide, which you can make inexpensively yourself, it's cheap to make, I should do, yeah, you know what?
	I'm going to do a demo.
	I'm going to bring in the chlorine dioxide demonstration with the vials.
	I'm going to show you how to make it yourself using the best method that I know of.
	But if you wash your vegetables in chlorine dioxide, it will very likely destroy maybe two-thirds of the dioxins that have fallen out of the sky.
	Now, can you take chlorine dioxide and have it destroy dioxins in your body?
	I don't know.
	That would have to be done in a clinical trial.
	It's a plausible explanation, but given that we don't know whether or not that works, it may not be efficacious to use it in that way.
	Nevertheless, you can use it to wash vegetables.
	You can wash surfaces.
	So if you're in an area near East Palestine and there was fallout, dark clouds falling on your house, your car, your porch, your yard...
	Frankly, you could take chlorine dioxide and you could rinse your car with it and you could probably, you know, get rid of a lot of the dioxins that way.
	And that's really good to know.
	So I want to thank Ann for sending me that story.
	Good news from time to time, right?
	Okay, moving on now to the defender, Children's Health Defense, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who, as you know, may be running for president.
	I can't wait to see if that happens.
	Here's a story, not by him, but by, who is it?
	Dr.
	Brenda Belletti.
	Exclusive mother sues DC doctor who gave kids COVID vaccines without consent.
	So Children's Health Defense is actually funding or helping with this lawsuit that alleges that this doctor vaccinated two of her children with mRNA jabs without her consent after falsely telling the children that those shots were required for them to attend school.
	So very typical of these vaccine-pushing doctors, they lie to the children.
	They say, oh, you have to have this or you can't go to school.
	It's a lie.
	They don't tell the parents.
	They don't get parental consent.
	They jab the kids.
	Boom.
	Kids become infertile or dead or disabled or die from cancer five years later.
	I mean, this is what's happening.
	It's genocide against children in America.
	So thumbs up to Children's Health Defense for fighting against that.
	It's another good reason to support Children's Health Defense.
	Alright, next story comes out of Breitbart.
	Remember the Antifa terrorism that happened over the weekend where there was like, I don't know, a few dozen Antifa mobsters throwing Molotov cocktails and fireworks and attacking police and burning up construction equipment at that Cop City construction location near Atlanta?
	Well, turns out that one of the, quote, domestic terrorists arrested was a Southern Poverty Law Center attorney and has been charged with domestic terrorism.
	So a lot of people have said for a long time that the SPLC is a terrorist organization.
	Well, allegedly they certainly have on their payroll someone charged with domestic terrorism.
	So, you know, kind of underscores that or reaffirms that.
	The Southern Poverty Law Center is, according to Breitbart, an organization that frequently lists mainstream conservatives alongside hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan.
	The KKK, right?
	So according to the SPLC, every conservative is part of a hate group and every Christian is a hater.
	But the KKK, which was run by Democrats, never gets mentioned as a Democrat organization by the SPLC. Crazy times.
	Crazy times.
	All right.
	Next story, also out of Breitbart.
	UK running dangerously low on ammo after sending munitions to Ukraine.
	This is so kind of hilarious to me because the woke, lunatic socialists who run the United Kingdom Have suddenly realized that integers matter when it comes to remaining munitions inventory.
	That's right, munitions.
	So they've sent almost everything to Ukraine, and then they turn around like, we don't have any munitions remaining in inventory over here.
	Dangerously low on ammunition.
	It's like, what are you going to do to defend your country?
	Well, they can't.
	The British Army has become...
	You know, historically a joke.
	British Army, the entire British Army would last, what, about one week in a war with Russia?
	They're out of ammunition.
	Stocks of ammunition in the UK now at dangerously low levels due to the country giving away supplies to Ukraine.
	Britain's Defense Select Committee has now warned.
	Uh-huh.
	I guess the wokesters woke up a little bit about how woke they are and they realized that you can't just pretend like you still have ammunition.
	You know, you can't say, oh, we're a country that we self-identify as a country that still has ammunition.
	No, you're out of ammunition.
	And it's not transgenderism munitions.
	You can't make it up.
	You can't fake it.
	You're out.
	You're done.
	So go home.
	Okay, next story.
	Perth Mint.
	This is out of Australia.
	Good story here.
	And who is this from?
	ABC News out of Australia.
	Perth Mint sold diluted gold to China, got caught, and tried to cover it up.
	Oh, this is great.
	So they were doping their gold bars with silver and some other element in here.
	To try to trick the Chinese.
	And they did this for so long, for so many years, that it turns out that this is a $9 billion fraud.
	And the Chinese are obviously not happy about this and probably demanding their money back.
	So this meant last year it sold $20.3 billion in gold.
	And this mint has a government guarantee.
	Well, the government better get out their checkbook because they're going to have to write some pretty fat checks to a lot of buyers who bought this doped gold.
	I mean, it's just...
	Are you serious?
	The government of Australia backs this mint that is selling partially counterfeit gold?
	Really?
	Really?
	You would expect that out of China, but not selling to China.
	You know what I'm saying?
	It's kind of semi-counterfeit gold.
	Anyway, folks, make sure you get your gold and silver from reputable sources.
	Sources that you can trust because there are fakes out there and there is doping going on even in Australia.
	Okay, next story.
	This one is out of the Gateway Pundit.
	BlackRock board member and former Pfizer executive is behind the push for chicken vaccinations.
	Yep, and the chicken vax company is an offshoot of Pfizer, reports the gateway pundit.
	Yep, they want to vaccinate all the chickens in the country.
	And how do they want to accomplish that?
	Well, they run scare stories.
	There's another avian flu.
	There's H5N1, H6N2. The chicken pox, even the chickens have chicken pox.
	Chicken influenza.
	It's horrible.
	All the chickens need vaccines.
	Because you see, this is the revenue model of Big Pharma.
	It's to scare everybody into lining up and taking every shot, every jab, all the time.
	And they've kind of tricked all the gullible American people who are kind of the low-hanging fruit of vaccine suicide, you know, self-inflicted, vaccine-assisted suicide people.
	They're not going to convince more people To start taking vaccines at this point, but they can go after the chickens and then the cows and then all the dogs and cats and donkeys and squirrels.
	They'll probably tell you everybody has to capture a squirrel.
	There's a squirrel plague spreading all over the country.
	Those crazy squirrels, they're nuts.
	And you've got to capture a squirrel, bring it in to your local CVS pharmacy for a squirrel vax, a squirrely mRNA vax jab in order to stop the squirrel pandemic from happening.
	I mean, this is where it's going.
	They just want to jab and vaccinate every animal in the country because it's their revenue model.
	So, more insanity there.
	And then, by the way, did you see Tucker Carlson release the January 6th video footage that shows, of course, we've all been lied to this entire time.
	And now the post-millennial has released this story, citing Trump.
	Trump calls for immediate release of J6 detainees, i.e.
	political prisoners, after Tucker Carlson exposes Democrat media lies.
	So it turns out it was all a lie.
	And the Q Shaman guy was actually escorted into the Senate chambers by security.
	And then, who was it?
	Was it Sicknick?
	Was that the officer that was...
	The media has told us that he was murdered by insurrectionists this entire time.
	A total lie.
	He's shown in the video, walking around perfectly fine and healthy after the so-called attack that supposedly killed him.
	I mean, the whole thing...
	Yeah, Brian Sicknick.
	And the whole thing is exposed at this point.
	And we've got to understand, we all have to really get our heads around this.
	This is why the Democrats fought so hard to rig the last midterm elections and try to hold on to the House.
	Because this January 6 footage was released by the GOP-controlled House.
	And they've only been in control since early January.
	They released it to Tucker Carlson, and then Tucker Carlson played it on the air, and now we're all seeing the truth.
	Do you realize that if the Democrats still controlled the House, the truth of this would never come out, and the lies would continue in perpetuity?
	So that's the importance of elections.
	And the GOP very nearly did not gain control of the House because of all the rigging of the Democrats.
	They rigged it and rigged it and rigged it.
	They just couldn't rig it quite enough.
	I mean, sure, they rigged the Senate and they kept control of that, but they just couldn't rig enough House races and so the GOP is in charge and now you have like Jim Jordan issuing subpoenas.
	What's that propaganda?
	Nina Jankiewicz or whatever her name is.
	Little Miss Mary Poppins.
	Disinformation lunatic.
	Whatever.
	But these subpoenas would never be happening if it wasn't for the GOP running the House.
	So thank God.
	That the GOP are in charge of the House right now.
	Not that they're all good people, don't get me wrong.
	There's a whole lot of traitors and lunatics and corrupt officials in both parties.
	But at least it's not a monoparty situation where you have one party running the House and the Senate and the White House and covering up all these lies.
	So you know Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are desperate to try to cover this up for as long as possible because at this point, You know, all these January 6 prisoners, they need to be set free and then they need to sue the United States government and the DOJ and especially the D.C. police.
	They need to sue them for tens of billions of dollars in suffering and damages because the whole insurrection narrative was a massive lie from the very start.
	And the truth is coming out.
	And Trump is calling for the immediate release of all these January 6 political prisoners.
	And that's what they are.
	So let's join Trump in that effort.
	We call for the immediate release of every last one of these so-called detainees as well.
	And we call for reparations for them.
	The government should pay them billions of dollars in reparations for their pain and suffering and the years of their life that has been stolen from them by this illegitimate Democrat regime that actually staged the insurrection in order to try to shape the narrative and carry out a false flag and paint all conservatives as radical insurrectionists.
	You know, the government is always working against us at every level.
	Hey, are you unhappy about the Democrats too?
	You want to come up?
	You want to come up?
	Hey, how you doing?
	All right.
	Rhodey, he was taking an interest here.
	Let me see if I can see you.
	I didn't call him up.
	I mean, he was looking over the table.
	And then I said, oh, let me shut this before he stomps all over this.
	Oh, hey.
	Okay, there we go.
	Good boy.
	All right.
	Hey, Rhodey.
	You want to turn around?
	Good boy.
	Okay, I got him to sit down here.
	That's about all I was going to cover anyway on the breaking news headlines.
	And the roadie wants to go swimming or play or something.
	So, you know, we've got to keep our lives in balance, folks.
	And this guy reminds me when I've spent too much time in the studio and it's time for us to go play outside in the real world in nature.
	So...
	I'm going to go do that.
	And yes, this is Rhodey right here.
	Quite an amazing dog.
	That's now become the Brighttown mascot.
	So, yeah?
	Oh, yeah?
	You want to shake?
	You know?
	He's like, no, I want to bite.
	I want to bite something.
	I want to rip limbs off or something.
	Like tree limbs.
	I mean, not arms and legs.
	But who knows?
	I mean, he's trained.
	But we'll see.
	Anyway, thank you for watching today.
	This continues off studio with audio only.
	And then we have an amazing interview coming up with Kim Ives, who is a filmmaker and a journalist.
	And he runs Haiti Liberté.
	Which is a website that has both English and French language versions of news out of Haiti.
	And he's got an extraordinary story to share with us.
	And he's got a new film that is available to watch for free.
	And he told me he's going to post it on Brightown.com.
	So we need to watch that film, learn about what's going on in Haiti, because it's another example of American State Department imperialism.
	And how America is actually kind of the global bully and the global terrorist on the world stage, ruining the lives of billions of people around the world so that we can exploit their resources and achieve economic hegemony over the rest of the world.
	It's very sad.
	But all that's coming up.
	Thanks for joining me today here in studio.
	I'm Mike Adams, and the Situation Update podcast now continues.
	Alright, continuing with the audio portion of today's podcast, you know, something that I covered in the studio, which was how you could use chlorine dioxide to destroy dioxins.
	I probably didn't emphasize this enough, but if you use chlorine dioxide to wash your vegetables...
	Let's say you go to the grocery store, you buy vegetables, or even you pull them out of your own garden, and you put them in a tub of water, and then you put a few drops of the chlorine dioxide ingredients, you know, bottle A and bottle B, also known as MMS, or what, Miracle Mineral Solution, sometimes it's called.
	That will not only destroy perhaps two-thirds of the dioxins, but That might be on your vegetables.
	It will also destroy some other fragile molecules, which very likely would include certain pesticides.
	Now, it's not going to penetrate inside the tissues of the vegetables, and there are pesticides, and in some cases herbicides, glyphosate, and so on inside the tissues, but at least it will very likely destroy a lot of the pesticides on the outside of your vegetables, which is still a big deal.
	And, by the way, It will kill bacteria.
	So did you know that some people get E. coli poisoning from, let's say, slicing a cantaloupe that they bought at the grocery store?
	They just slice a cantaloupe, and it turns out that there was E. coli on the outside of the cantaloupe.
	And then when they cut it with a knife, the knife pushed the E. coli into the cantaloupe flesh, and then people ate it and they got E. coli poisoning.
	Yeah, seriously, that's happened.
	Well, what if you wash the cantaloupe?
	In chlorine dioxide.
	Just a chlorine dioxide solution.
	And I know some people are going to say, well, how strong should it be?
	I don't know.
	Figure it out.
	I mean, play around with it.
	This is not a formula for everything, you know?
	Just try it.
	Try five drops of A, five drops of B in like a couple gallons of water.
	See how it goes.
	And then if it's not strong enough, use more.
	You know, figure it out.
	And then rinse everything off.
	Rinse the cantaloupes.
	Rinse the vegetables.
	Rinse the apples.
	Whatever.
	I think this is a really great habit to get into when we live in such a contaminated, toxic world and when there's bio sludge that's being used on farms and orchards.
	And you know what's in the bio sludge.
	You know, every freaking virus and bacterial strain that's in everybody's feces all over the cities of the world.
	And that's ended up on the farms and food.
	Yeah, you definitely want to use chlorine dioxide.
	And I've made up my mind, I'm going to film in the studio just a little how-to thing on how to actually make chlorine dioxide solution, or CDS as it's called, which is the, what's the correct way to describe this?
	First, it's the gaseous form that gets infused into water, and you use a little shot glass to do that.
	I'm going to show you that, because it's real simple, easy to show, and very informative.
	And it can be used to clean all kinds of surfaces, and it kills all kinds of bacteria, and it disrupts all kinds of toxic molecules, by the way.
	So, an important skill to have, an important knowledge base.
	By the way, you know, you'll need an acid source for that, like citric acid or vinegar or some other kind, maybe very weak hydrochloric acid.
	But did you know that the acid that's used most by hydroponic growers is phosphoric acid?
	Did you know that?
	Yeah.
	You can get this online very readily, and a little bit of that stuff goes a long way.
	It's known as a pH down type of solution.
	And if you go out there and shop for hydroponic solutions that raise the pH, i.e.
	make it more alkaline, or lower the pH, making it more acidic, you can really drastically overpay for pH up and pH down solutions.
	The economical way to do this is to just buy bulk phosphoric acid.
	You can get it by the leader, essentially online, even places like Amazon sells phosphoric acid, although I encourage you to find somebody else to buy it from other than Amazon.
	But using a pipette and a little bit of phosphoric acid, you can adjust the pH of, let's say, solutions for your plants or solutions for hydroponics, you know, so...
	Anything where you need the pH to go down, phosphoric acid gets it done.
	Just know that when it's in its relatively pure form or an 85% form, it is quite, you know, dangerous.
	You don't want to stick your fingers in that.
	And it will do horrible things to your skin and so on.
	So, you know, practice good safety measures and wear safety goggles over your eyes and things like that when you're dealing with these kinds of potentially harsh chemicals.
	But they do have their place, you know, in growing food.
	Phosphoric acid, by the way, is also known as a rust remover.
	So if you go to the grocery store or the hardware store and you buy something labeled rust remover, you're probably buying phosphoric acid that's 10 times overpriced.
	So just by understanding that phosphoric acid does this, you have your own rust remover and a pH adjuster for plants and so on.
	Let's say you want to grow blueberries.
	You probably need to lower the pH because blueberries like more acidic soils, typically something under 6.0.
	So phosphoric acid is perfect for accomplishing that.
	Multitude of uses!
	Every prepper's home should have phosphoric acid and baking soda.
	And chlorine dioxide.
	And salt.
	Bunch of other basic chemistry items as well.
	So stock up.
	So moving on to outer space type of topics here.
	From businessinsider.com, there's a headline that says, Ghostly photos from NASA's Curiosity rover reveal beautiful rare clouds and the first sun rays ever spotted on Mars.
	Right.
	So they're releasing...
	Here's what's happening.
	They're slowly...
	Sort of getting the world Earth used to the idea that Mars has an atmosphere.
	Because, you know, I've covered this in years past, but they're flying helicopters on Mars, okay?
	NASA brags about their helicopters.
	At the same time that they tell us Mars has essentially no atmosphere.
	And they just figure that Earthlings are too stupid to know that you can't fly a helicopter without an atmosphere.
	You know, you have to have what's known as density, altitude.
	You know, you've got to have atmospheric pressure to fly a helicopter.
	Anyway, they're slowly telling us, they're slowly admitting that Mars has an atmosphere.
	So now they've released photos.
	Of clouds on Mars.
	Seriously, I'm looking at it right now.
	It's clouds on Mars.
	And then beams of sunlight shining through the clouds.
	And again, this is reported by Business Insider and other outlets as well.
	And here's what it says.
	The rover took the ethereal photo on February 2nd as the sun set behind a group of twilight clouds.
	These clouds hang at an unusually high altitude, says NASA released the eerie images.
	Curiosity also captured a feather-shaped iridescent cloud hanging over Mars that appears to glow pink, green, and blue.
	And then they show the photo.
	So...
	I don't recall NASA ever previously telling us that there were clouds and atmosphere and sun rays shining through the clouds.
	Do you remember that?
	I don't remember them ever doing that.
	In fact, even from the 1970s on, the images we got were all edited to show Mars as this kind of barren, desolate Desert landscape with no atmosphere, no clouds, no weather, no possibility of rain or moisture or humidity or anything of that kind, right?
	Because that was the only way they could say, well, there can't be any life on Mars.
	It's inhospitable.
	It's impossible.
	Couldn't be life on Mars.
	And, of course, in 1976, the Viking, I think that's what it was called, the Viking NASA craft that landed on Mars, you know, it had a mass spec experiment on board, and it found essentially proof of microbial life in Martian soils.
	You know, it was the first discovery of life on another planet, and they buried it.
	They covered it up.
	They retracted it, and they buried the scientists who came up with that.
	It was his experiment.
	He should have been known as the first scientist to ever discover life on another planet, and they just made him go away.
	That was in the 70s, and they've been covering up life on Mars ever since.
	But now something's changing.
	Now they're starting to talk about clouds and sun rays, and look, it's got an atmosphere, and we're flying helicopters.
	Why do you think that is, folks?
	Why do you think that is?
	They're getting ready.
	They're trying to get Earth ready for the big reveal or even a cosmic false flag type of event where they try to take control of Earth by saying that we're being invaded by Martians or aliens, but it turns out to be just a bunch of Air Force holograms or something.
	You know, they're going to pull a cosmic false flag on us, probably.
	That's the way this is looking.
	But in any case, they're getting ready to introduce the idea of aliens.
	You know, real or fictional.
	They're going to introduce the idea at some point here.
	You can see them moving in that direction.
	You know, put out all the videos of the UFOs and all the once-secret documents are being released and so on.
	It's so obvious.
	They're getting ready for the big alien reveal.
	And you know that the powers that be that run this planet, they would only do that if it served their power grab.
	They're not interested in truth or reality or exploring the universe or protecting Earth or anything.
	In fact, they're interested in destroying human civilization.
	So they would only reveal the presence of, quote, aliens if it meant that they could more rapidly exterminate humanity.
	So just watch for it.
	Whenever they reveal it, it's all about mass murder.
	Trust me, that's exactly where this is going.
	Either way, Earth, as we know it, is screwed.
	Well, not the planet, but I mean, the people living on it.
	Human civilization is screwed.
	Because, you know, because the humans are not very good at running a sustainable civilization of any kind whatsoever, right?
	They are suicidal, right?
	We're living on a giant...
	Water ball with a suicide cult as our fellow human beings, and they just can't help but destroy everything.
	That's what they're really, really good at.
	So along those lines, here we go.
	Here's a headline from RT. India poised to ditch dollar in trade with neighbor, which is Sri Lanka here.
	So the story says that India and Sri Lanka are discussing shifting away from the U.S. dollar To settlements using the Indian rupee as the two countries look to strengthen their partnership through trade and investments.
	Rupee settlements are expected to derive benefits like shorter timelines, lower exchange costs, and so on.
	And importantly, it means that India and Sri Lanka don't have to buy dollars because the dollars are losing, as you know, about 2% per month right now.
	And that's going to get even worse with the Fed looking to raise interest rates even more.
	Yeah.
	There goes your savings, right?
	There it goes.
	It's vanishing by the minute.
	So the rupee is going to replace the dollar in a lot of trade with India, not just Sri Lanka, but India's trade with other countries such as Turkey as well.
	You know, India trades with almost everybody.
	India trades with Russia.
	And you think they're going to use dollars to trade with Russia?
	Not a chance.
	They've already moved away from that.
	And if you go around the world country by country, More and more countries are just moving away from the dollar, including Saudi Arabia.
	That's the big one.
	When the Saudis move away from the dollar, you pretty much lose your petrodollar status.
	And the thing is, the lunatics, the woke idiots leading the United States, they know this.
	They know the dollar's days are done.
	It won't be around much longer.
	Why do you think they have to keep the war going in Ukraine so they can launder hundreds of billions of dollars into Ukraine?
	They're looting...
	The Treasury, basically, before it collapses.
	That's what this is.
	That money's not going to Ukraine soldiers or Ukraine military weapons.
	It's getting routed back into the pockets of the top looters in the United States government.
	You know, Biden administration officials and certain senators and certain State Department officials and so on and their family members.
	That's where all that's going.
	This is the final stage of looting of the United States Treasury before the collapse.
	And you can see the collapse accelerating, you know, the Belt and Road Initiative.
	You know, you can see countries moving away from the dollar more and more.
	By the way, did you know that Sri Lanka defaulted on about $35 billion in Western debt?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that's a lot of money.
	The country just fell apart, you know, because they tried to ban fertilizer.
	It didn't work out.
	It collapsed the whole country, turns out.
	They thought they wanted to go all organic, and they thought that meant banning nitrogen-based fertilizers, and then the whole bottom fell out of the country, and they burned down the presidential palace, or at least set it on fire.
	I mean, they didn't burn the whole thing down, but they set it on fire and a lot of other buildings on fire.
	They tried to burn it down, I should say.
	Nevertheless, did you know that the new BRICS Plus Nations, their global reserve currency system, one of the rules they have is that you can join them even if you've defaulted on Western debt and you won't be penalized for it.
	That's right.
	It's kind of like you get a fresh start on your national credit if you just join Western.
	The China, you know, Russia, Brazil, South Africa, you know, you join that system, India, and then boom, you have fresh credit.
	So Sri Lanka, obviously, is a good candidate for that.
	A lot of other countries are going to join up as well, and they're all going to ditch the dollar, and a lot of them are going to just ditch dollar debt.
	You know, even sovereign debt, national debt, they're going to say, yeah, we're done with the Western system of, you know, imperialism and financial colonialism.
	Whatever you want to call it.
	We're done with it.
	They're just going to default on it.
	You know, they can just declare it to be illegal.
	Like, we were coerced.
	You know, they could say, well, the United States, the CIA assassinated our former president, you know, and ran a color revolution, carried out a coup in order to get us into debt, and we now, we dispute the legitimacy of that debt.
	We're rejecting it.
	We're not going to pay it.
	It's done.
	They can do that, and then they can get financing and trade through the BRICS system.
	That's going to happen all over the planet, folks, all over the planet, because most of the world is done trying to deal with the bullies of the West, which is the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, whatever, Australia.
	The bullies of the West, Canada, Canada.
	Snowflake bullies up there with Justin Trudeau.
	Blackface bullies, I guess.
	That's Trudeau, right?
	Didn't he do blackface?
	The bullies, their day is done.
	And the West is going to suffer a total financial collapse because nobody in the world wants to use Western money, Western debt, Western transaction systems, the petrodollar.
	Nobody wants it any longer.
	The world is fed up with the West.
	And, you know, frankly, a lot of us living in the West are fed up with the policies of our own governments that are obviously weaponized against us and the world at the same time.
	So things are headed for a major change.
	By the way, Austin, Texas is losing its police force because, of course, the libtard woke city.
	Run by lunatics.
	I mean, just, it's a woke fest of absolute lunacy.
	Tent cities everywhere, addicts, crime, violence all over the place, and the city council, who are all Marxist left-wing lunatics.
	They hate the police.
	They want to defund the police.
	Well, police are abandoning Austin, Texas.
	This story came out in just the last few days.
	The local news station KXAN was reporting that prior to 2020, there were about 50 retirements per year from the Austin Police Department.
	But now that's doubled in the three years since then.
	And then in the first two months of 2023, there have already been 50 retirements.
	And quote, dozens more are expected by the end of March.
	So they're quoting Lieutenant Brian Moon, who just retired last month.
	He was 23 years with the Austin Police Department, APD. He told the New York Post, which has been covering this story, We're right there with Portland and Seattle and San Francisco as being one of those places where if you're at all conservative or in law enforcement, it's become a hostile place.
	So the current contract for the Austin Police Department expires at the end of March.
	And there are city council members in Austin that want to not renew the contract and just end police in Austin.
	That's their goal.
	They just want to completely end all police in Austin.
	And see, liberals, I mean we have to use the term libtard here.
	There's no more fitting place for it.
	Libtards think that utopia is a society run by Black Lives Matter and Antifa with no police and no one armed except Black Lives Matter and Antifa goons.
	That's the libtard utopia.
	The guns in the hands of their terrorist groups, but no police and no other citizens, certainly no conservatives.
	That can have firearms whatsoever.
	You know, because gun control.
	That's their utopia.
	But you know what they actually get when they try to do these things?
	What do they actually get?
	Well, I want to show you a video.
	This is a video that's going viral.
	It's a video of masked youth ransacking a Chinese seafood restaurant in New York City.
	And these are Asian and Hispanic youths apparently wearing COVID masks And they're just ransacking the entire restaurant.
	This is what happens when you defund police.
	Check out this video.
	It's about 30 seconds.
	Get out of here.
	Get out.
	Get out.
	So there you go.
	You can be eating in a restaurant in New York City and then just a mob of crazed, insane, delusional, left-wing youth come through and just trash the place because, you know, utopia.
	This is what they do now.
	And because you're not allowed to have guns in New York City, you know, the shopkeeper can't even defend himself.
	I mean, this mob of youth were obviously very violent.
	They were destroying property.
	They were committing felony crimes, you know.
	I don't think they'd get away with that in Texas.
	Not for long.
	The shop owner would just open fire on him, you know, with a 12-gauge.
	Oh, you want to come in here and ransack the restaurant?
	Yeah, meet Mr.
	Benelli here.
	Or Mr.
	Remington.
	He's got something to say about that.
	He's got a few things to say.
	Listen carefully.
	He speaks with punctuation.
	And am I out of line, by the way, if I say that every one of these youths probably deserves whatever a shopkeeper might aim in their direction?
	If a shopkeeper opened fire on these young terrorists and just shot them dead right there in the shop, would you feel sorry for them?
	Would you feel like that was overkill, literally?
	Or is that deserved?
	Because, you know, at some point in society, and I know the cops listening to this, you will agree with me, because the cities don't even allow you to do your job, right?
	But at some point in society, you have to stop the insanity.
	And there's a reason why 12-gauge shotguns are called, historically, riot guns.
	You know why?
	Because they stopped the riot.
	You bring a riot gun to a riot.
	If you're a cop, you bring a riot gun, 12 gauge, and the riot used to kind of settle down.
	Oh, the cop's got a gun.
	He's got a riot gun.
	That's why they're called riot guns, folks.
	At some point, society is going to have to reassert the rule of law.
	I mean, you saw Walmart is shutting down every store in Portland, Oregon.
	Every single store.
	Why?
	Why?
	For the same reason you're seeing here.
	Portland, folks.
	The libtard crime capital of the West Coast or the Northwest.
	Well, I don't know.
	Maybe Seattle's in competition for that title.
	But you get the idea.
	Even Walmart said, oh, we got to get the heck out of this city.
	This is crazy.
	We can't let these people just ransack our stores nonstop.
	And there's nothing we can do.
	You know, if you fight back, you get charged by the George Soros-funded DA of Portland.
	So the best thing we can do as Walmart executives is just flee.
	Flee Portland.
	Well, what do you think is going to happen to the restaurants in New York City and Portland and Seattle and San Francisco and even Austin, Texas?
	What's going to happen to the retailers?
	What's going to happen to the big box stores?
	You know, the Best Buys, the Home Depots.
	The Targets, you know, upscale looting at Target.
	You get a little better quality for your looting effort at Target.
	You know, Target looters.
	What's going to happen to all these retailers?
	They're going to leave.
	They're going to leave.
	And you're going to end up with a collapsed Mad Max city with no police, just run by rampant left-wing criminal gangs, insane people with nose rings and purple hair.
	And all tatted up, you know, running around destroying society and thinking that this is their utopia.
	And that's going to go on for a while until those cities collapse and burn.
	Which is kind of, I mean, they're bringing it on themselves.
	It's just, it's inevitable.
	It's cause and effect.
	And then those Americans living outside the cities are going to look back at that and say, wow, look at that giant, you know, column of flame.
	Skyward out of the city of Portland or Seattle or Austin.
	That used to be a great city.
	Remember that?
	Remember when Austin used to be keep Austin weird?
	And now it's just like shoot up and collapse and burn and rape and pillage everything.
	That's the new slogan for Austin, you know?
	South by Southwest is taking place soon in Austin.
	Maybe it's already begun.
	Who knows?
	They should just rename it.
	South by South Wrecked.
	Because that's what Austin is.
	It's a wrecked city.
	There's a reason why those of us who live in Texas, live in rural areas, we never go to Austin.
	We stay out of Austin.
	I haven't been to Austin, well, except when I go to the Infowars studios.
	Okay, that's the only reason I go to Austin, but I stay out of downtown, obviously.
	But aside from going to the Alex Jones show, I haven't been in Austin for years.
	And frankly, I don't like much driving to the Infowars studio, because that's in Travis County, and it's a crime festival there.
	So, stay out of the cities, folks.
	Stay out of the blue cities in particular.
	The ransacking has begun.
	Okay, hey, there's something else I got to cover here before we wrap this up, this segment, and then we're going to get to the interview, which is pretty amazing.
	It's with Kim Ives, a filmmaker and journalist.
	It's about Haiti, and it's pretty mind-blowing or eye-opening, let's say.
	But you know about the Americans that were shot and killed in Mexico.
	They were trying to go get a tummy tuck procedure in Matamoros, Mexico.
	And two Americans were killed.
	Two were not killed.
	So there were four that went down there.
	Two were killed.
	The two that survived, one of those individuals was shot.
	And they have now been identified.
	And let's see, the two killed are Sha'id Woodard and Zindell Brown.
	And yes, they are black Americans.
	It looks like all four who went down there are black Americans.
	And suddenly it starts to kind of the pieces of this twisted puzzle start to come together, at least to understand perhaps what went wrong.
	The surviving two are Latavia Tay McGee and Eric James, and they're being treated in a hospital in Texas right now.
	So being that these individuals are black...
	The word from the media was that a Mexican drug cartel thought that these people were part of a Haitian gang.
	And so they opened fire on their vehicle.
	Right?
	So is it possible that the Mexican drug cartels thought these people were Haitian because their skin color is darker?
	Than a white person's skin.
	Seems like that could very well be the case.
	Seems like these people may have been shot in Mexico because they're black.
	Or let's clarify that.
	Because they're black and then misidentified as a Haitian gang, which they were not.
	They were just there for the tummy tuck.
	But there you go, folks.
	It's a dangerous world.
	I just say whether you're black or white, maybe don't go to rural Mexico.
	But check this out.
	I mean, that's not even the craziest part of this story.
	Lindsey Graham now says, essentially, this is a paraphrase, essentially, he wants the U.S. military to invade Mexico because of this shooting.
	I mean, whoa, Lindsey, how about we start by protecting our border, huh?
	How about that?
	Why don't we...
	Stop the invasion of America before we invade Mexico.
	But this is from MSN. Lindsey Graham says he'll introduce a bill to set the stage to use military force in Mexico.
	What?
	He's prepared to introduce legislation to pave the way for the president to use military force in Mexico to combat drug cartels.
	Didn't they make a movie about this?
	Wasn't this a movie?
	It was a movie.
	No, I forgot the name of that movie.
	It was a movie, a fairly recent movie, last couple years, where some U.S. contractors were hired to run a covert military operation and go take out the drug cartels in Mexico, and it all went sideways.
	Apparently, the script of that movie has been read by Lindsey Graham.
	Who has said, quote, this administration has done nothing about it.
	I'm going to introduce legislation to make certain Mexican drug cartels foreign terrorist organizations, that's right, FTOs, under U.S. law and set the stage to use military force, if necessary, to protect America from being poisoned by things coming out of Mexico.
	And I would tell the Mexican government, if you don't clean up your act, we're going to clean it up for you.
	Oh really?
	Really?
	The arrogance of this moron is just beyond astonishing.
	Remember, these are the same people that think they can defeat Russia in a land war, even as America has run out of ammunition or is on the verge of doing so.
	They think they can beat Russia in a land war, and then they think they can just send the military into Mexico to fight the drug cartels.
	This at a time when 75% of America's youth are too fat and unfit to even qualify for military service.
	75%, 3 out of 4 youth can't even join the military, and the military has lowered their standards.
	You don't even have to really be fit to join the military these days.
	You don't even have to graduate from high school.
	You can even have some type of criminal record and you can still join the military.
	You can be the world's biggest idiot and you can join the military now because they can't get enough people.
	The recruiting effort is a total flop.
	No one wants to join the military and very few people even qualify.
	So what are you going to do?
	You're going to fight the Mexican drug cartels with the same military that under the woke leadership of Austin and Biden couldn't even fight the Taliban in Afghanistan and left behind, what, $10, $20 billion worth of hardware there, handed it over to the Taliban?
	You know how this is going to go in Mexico.
	The U.S. military is going to roll in with $10 billion worth of, you know, Hummers and artillery, maybe some armored vehicles and mine resistant vehicles, what have you.
	And then they're going to panic at the first sight of actual drug cartels, you know, with real firearms, like actual men who aren't sissies and snowflakes, right?
	Because the Mexican drug cartels, yeah, they're criminals, but they're hardcore tough dudes too, right?
	Hardcore.
	They're not sissies.
	The U.S. military is going to turn and run north, and they're going to leave behind all this equipment just like they did in Afghanistan.
	Sorry to say, I'm not against the soldiers, the men and women in uniform.
	This is the weak leadership doing this, ordering people to leave, to flee, a disorganized route.
	That's what happened in Afghanistan.
	So it's not that the soldiers want to do this, but the military is so weak at the top because it's all woke.
	They're all concerned about transgenderism and how many gays can fit in a helicopter instead of how to actually train to kill the enemy.
	So they're going to turn and run, and they're going to leave behind all this equipment for the Mexican drug cartels.
	And then those cartels are going to get their hands on the artillery, the armored vehicles, the self-propelled whatever, and Probably not tanks, but other equipment.
	And they're going to turn around and they're going to use that to wage a war.
	On the Texas southern border.
	So there you go.
	There you go.
	That's what's going to happen, Lindsey Graham, under your woke military with the woke Austin and all the DOD just pathetic losers who don't know how to fight a war whatsoever.
	You've got a chest full of fake badges and medals and stuff that none of them ever earned because they never spent a day on a battlefield anywhere in the world.
	A bunch of bureaucrats and politicians pretending to be generals and whatever.
	You're just going to leave behind billions of dollars of hardware in Mexico.
	You're going to arm the same gangs that just killed these two people, these two Americans, these black Americans.
	That's what you're going to do.
	And you're going to create a bigger problem for Texas and Arizona and California and New Mexico.
	That's what you're going to do.
	You're going to cause another war.
	Oh, maybe that's what they want.
	Another war because, you know, fighting a two-front war, We're good to go.
	How are you going to fight this war?
	Are we going to issue press releases, Victoria Nuland, from your State Department?
	We're winning.
	We're winning, and anybody who doesn't think we're winning is a Russian puppet.
	It's the collision with reality that's coming here.
	The day of reckoning that is coming is going to be biblical.
	When these lunatics run out of their fictional runways and have to meet reality, the reality is, and I guarantee you this is the case, under the woke leadership, the United States Army right now, the new recruits coming in and getting trained under the woke leadership, they can't fight the drug cartels.
	The drug cartels would win.
	You can quote me on that.
	Again, it's nothing against the heart and the courage of the young men and women in uniform, but we don't have young Americans today like we used to have a generation ago or two generations ago.
	This is totally different from the veterans that fought in the initial desert storm, let's say, or even 20 years ago in Afghanistan.
	What we have today is Are just watered down, mostly, snowflakes, and they will turn and run and flee.
	They'll get triggered.
	They can't fight.
	It's already over.
	You send the military into Mexico, they're going to get kidnapped by the Mexican drug gangs.
	Now, the cartels.
	Cartels will capture the U.S. military that is sent down there and probably hold them for ransom.
	As you know, these drug cartel members, they grew up on tough streets, tough circumstances.
	A hard life makes for hard people, you know, tough people.
	These young kids in America today, everything's been easy.
	It's just Xbox and universal basic income.
	Oh, you don't have to study.
	You're going to get your grades because of equity, you know, whatever.
	Equal outcomes for all.
	We don't have a society anymore.
	We don't have a military that can function.
	We don't have a currency that functions.
	We don't have elections that function.
	Media is all rigged.
	The White House is all rigged.
	We don't have a society.
	Now we're just watching the downfall.
	And we still have these arrogant lunatics like Lindsey Graham who thinks that you can just throw the military into Mexico.
	You know, like having imaginary platoons and battalions on a board.
	Like send the battalion 4B down there.
	It doesn't exist.
	And by the way, half the hardware has already been shipped to Poland, as we saw yesterday.
	So good luck.
	Good luck.
	Oh, yeah, you can't manufacture munitions either.
	You don't even have the factories in the U.S. for that.
	Oh, they said we're going to build the factories.
	Oh, that's a couple years down the road to build the factories.
	And then after they build them, who are they going to get to work in the factories?
	If they even succeed in building them, who's going to work in the factories?
	Oh, that's right.
	Mexicans.
	Yes, the same Mexicans that they think they're going to go down there and defeat with the military, the same Mexicans are going to, they think, run the munitions factories in America?
	Are you kidding me?
	Do they not have any idea?
	Once you declare war on Mexican drug gangs, you know how quickly those ammunition depots are going to be blown up in America?
	Do you have any idea?
	These people have, they're clueless, they're clueless.
	Mexican drug cartels just walk in with mortars.
	Just launch a couple of mortars.
	Boom, boom, boom.
	Set off the munitions.
	Kaboom!
	There goes your factory.
	No more munitions.
	What?
	You think that can't happen?
	Come on.
	Join the real world.
	The level of delusional thinking by people like Lindsey Graham is just off the charts insane.
	That guy is just a sad, pathetic excuse for a representative of our country.
	He should go down there and fight him himself if he thinks that can be effective.
	Yeah, slap on a chest rig and a helmet.
	Put an AR in your hands and, I don't know, eight or nine mags loaded up on your chest rig.
	You go down there and fight the drug cartels.
	You think that's so easy.
	Yeah, have a shot at it.
	See how long you last.
	Last about 60 seconds.
	Invade Mexico.
	Are you as tired as I am of living in a country run by lunatics?
	No.
	And again, that's a Republican lunatic right there.
	You know, lunacy, apparently it's an equal opportunity kind of mental state for these representatives.
	It could be a Democrat, it could be a Republican, it could be An independent, you know, you got Bernie Sanders out there.
	Another kind of lunacy.
	These people have no clue how the world works because they've lived in these artificial environments.
	The fake shell of the city, you know, Washington, D.C. and Virginia, you know, in the Senate, all around Congress and In D.C., they're not seeing the real world.
	They have no idea what happens on the border of Texas.
	They've never been there.
	They don't know anything.
	They've never interacted with real American people.
	They have no idea what's going on.
	They're oblivious.
	And they overestimate the capabilities and the longevity of this country.
	They don't realize how fragile the system is, how quickly the whole thing can just come crashing down, which it is about to experience that.
	I mean, you saw the video of the ransacking of the restaurants.
	You've seen videos of just tent cities in these blue cities all over San Francisco and Portland and Seattle and Chicago and all kinds of other places.
	America is in a state of collapse right now.
	The collapse is happening.
	Sometimes people say, when is the collapse going to happen?
	You keep talking about collapse.
	You're living it.
	Open your eyes.
	Look around.
	You're living it.
	Take a drive through Austin, Texas.
	You're looking at the collapse.
	It's happening every day all around you.
	Hard to not see it.
	Get ready for the collapse.
	That's what I have to say about that.
	Check out our sponsor, the satellite phone store, Backup Communications, so that when Antifa burns down your local power grid, you'll still have communications via satellite.
	Just go to sat123.com.
	I don't travel without backup satellite phones.
	And they're bivy sticks.
	The bivy stick is a satellite communications device.
	It syncs up with your phone.
	Your phone doesn't even need to have a SIM card in it, by the way, to use this.
	You just have to have a phone that has Bluetooth.
	And so it uses your phone to compose and to read satellite messages.
	And then this bivy stick...
	You can just set it close to a window or point it at the sky and it talks to satellites, sends and receives messages.
	And you can text people on their phones, regular phones, or you can send to other people's bivvy sticks.
	It comes with a phone number so people can reach you on that phone number.
	They can send a text to that phone number and you'll get it via satellite.
	So as society is collapsing, make sure you have backup communications.
	SAT123.com And if you want a really amazing folding AR-15, folding stock that actually works, that's patented, go to ShieldArms.com.
	That's our sponsor in that space.
	Use discount code RANGER to save, I think, $100 off of one of the folding rifles.
	ShieldArms.com, discount code RANGER. Check out their folding.
	Well, they used to have folding pistols.
	But because of the ATF arm brace rule, those aren't available at the moment, but they have full length rifles.
	However, by the way, I'm told from a reliable source, well, actually two sources, that there's going to be a TRO against the ATF on the arm braces.
	A TRO is a temporary restraining order.
	So the ATF is going to have to back down from the arm brace rule.
	And when that happens, arm braces will once again be available online at retail.
	And everybody's going to be buying arm braces at that moment.
	And you'll be able to purchase firearms with arm braces once again once that happens.
	But stay tuned on that.
	There should be some positive news coming out of...
	Well, Ken Paxton, the AG of Texas, has joined with Gun Owners of America and filed suit against the ATF. Oh, did you know that bump stocks are legal in Texas again now?
	Bump stocks.
	And did you know that Trump actually sort of ordered the ATF to ban bump stocks?
	Yeah, that's a very worrisome issue about Trump and the Second Amendment.
	Trump was in favor of a bump stock ban, which the ATF kind of leapfrogged off of that to now ban stabilizing braces or attempt to.
	That's all because of Trump.
	I mean, Trump needs to understand the Second Amendment is absolute.
	You don't tell the ATF to start banning this piece of hardware or that piece of hardware or this brace or whatever.
	No, because they're going to run with it and they're going to try to ban everything.
	And you're going to need self-defense based on what's coming.
	You're going to need it.
	You might, hey, if the U.S. military goes down, tries to invade Mexico and leaves behind a whole bunch of armored vehicles, you're going to need some heavy hardware in the United States to defend your country against the drug cartels coming in with our military equipment.
	You're going to hope you have a.50 Cal Barrett and other similar firearms along those lines.
	Even then, if you're facing military equipment, you can't just go at it with small arms fire.
	You're going to need your own military to defend your country at that point.
	But we'll see.
	We'll see what happens.
	Right now, it's looking pretty crazy.
	And finally, a quick update.
	My progress on the Rubik's Cube.
	It's so funny that there are people out there that can solve the Rubik's Cube in under 10 seconds.
	Some people can do it in 6 or 7 seconds.
	That's crazy.
	So I'm doing it.
	I'm solving it in about a minute now, and then I realize that I have to learn a new technique to solve the bottom two layers without reorienting the cube.
	Because you waste a lot of time rotating it, looking for pieces, flipping it around.
	Like, where's the blue-white piece or whatever?
	So now I have to learn all the algorithms from four different points of view.
	I didn't realize it was going to be this complicated.
	I thought, hey, if I get these basic algorithms down, I can solve it.
	And I can, but apparently to get down to something like...
	40 seconds or even closer to 30 seconds.
	You have to know all these algorithms from all four angles, like the right side, the left side, the back side, the front side.
	So now I'm doing that and it's really, really slow.
	So I'm solving it very slowly right now because my brain's trying to rethink.
	I'm like, oh my gosh, how does this look from the right or the left?
	But it's good.
	It's good exercise.
	It's just, I never realized this cube was so complicated to do it well.
	So when you see a speedcuber solving it in 10 seconds, that's like 10,000 hours of practice.
	Seriously.
	That's somebody who has put a major amount of their life into knowing and practicing algorithms and movements and also a lot of mental flexibility, which is one of the reasons why I'm enjoying it, because it's a mental exercise.
	And, you know, I like to keep my brain sharp.
	And, frankly, you've got to do something other than reading the dang news because the news is just so depressing and frustrating.
	It's like, you've got to get away from that a little bit.
	So, anyway, I will keep you posted.
	Now, let's move ahead to the interview, which I'm sure you will enjoy.
	And that will wrap up today's podcast.
	So, enjoy.
	I'll be back with you tomorrow from the studio.
	And we have a special guest, but I'll I'll leave it as a teaser, but yes, we have a special guest coming on tomorrow.
	Should be interesting.
	Thank you for joining, and here's the interview.
	Welcome to the Health Ranger Report here on Brighteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon.
	And today we're going to be joined by a first-time guest, a really special guest, a filmmaker, an author, and a journalist.
	He's the primary editor of the website called Haiti Liberté, which we'll show you in a little bit.
	And he's got a relatively new film that's really critical for the world to see.
	It's called Another Vision.
	It investigates the truth behind the revolution in Haiti and really what's going on in Haiti, kind of the bigger picture.
	And we're joined by this extraordinary filmmaker right now, Mr.
	Kim Ives, joins us to talk about this film and U.S. policy toward Haiti and other countries.
	Mr.
	Ives, thank you for joining me today.
	It's an honor to have you on.
	Thank you, Mike.
	I'm glad to be here.
	Well, it's great to have you here, and our audience is going to love what you have to offer.
	So how about this?
	Let's start with a little bit of background of you and the Haiti Liberté website, and then we'll get into the film.
	Well, I'm an American by birth, but I grew up in the Haitian community.
	My mom married a Haitian revolutionary back in the And I grew up sort of with the struggle against Papa Doc.
	That was Francois Papa Doc Duvalier and his son Baby Doc Duvalier, who were two dictators from 19...
	57 until 1986.
	And so after I graduated school, they more or less hooked me into the fight there.
	And I've been doing films and writing as a journalist covering Haiti really for the past 48 years.
	Wow.
	That's extraordinary.
	Well, first, tell us about Haiti Liberté.
	We'll show the website, and then I have some questions for you.
	But give us kind of an overview of what people can see on that site, if you would, please.
	Well, Haiti Liberté is the largest Haitian weekly.
	It comes out every Wednesday.
	We're in production right now.
	I'm under deadline right now, but I said I have to break for...
	For Mike Adams, you know, there's no doubt about that.
	So we are a weekly newspaper which provides a lot of analysis and news, of course, about Haiti and the Caribbean, as well as the world.
	It's mostly in French, but I am the English language editor, so I do the So, what's the number one thing that you think the American people need to know about Haiti right now?
	Well, right now that the U.S. is trying to invade Haiti once again for the third time in three decades, the first intervention.
	Well, I should step back a minute.
	Basically, after this devalued dictatorship, which ended in 1986, The Haitian people elected their own leader.
	It was a genuine, very good election in 1990, and it brought to power a former parish priest named Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who was a nationalist.
	And the U.S. didn't cotton to that very much, and they quickly organized with the Haitian ruling class a coup d'etat in September 30th, 1991.
	And there ensued three years of massacres and carnage.
	And it was ended by an intervention under Bill Clinton of 20,000 U.S. troops.
	And there ensued three months of U.S. military occupation with France and Canada.
	And then that was handed off to the U.N., which basically continued the occupation until 2000.
	Around that time, Aristide was re-elected to power.
	And again, the Bush White House now, George W. Bush White House, organized another coup.
	This one was a little harder and took a little more time.
	But they drove him out on February 29th, 2004, and followed it immediately with another UN military occupation.
	Which lasted 15 years.
	And the result is that Haiti has become very debilitated.
	It's really had its whole governmental structure crushed under these occupations.
	So there are a couple of themes here, real quick, if you don't mind me interjecting.
	One theme, I know that, for example, recalling some of Trump's comments about Haiti and the typical view of Haiti from the American people is that Haiti is almost a collapsed, disorganized country.
	But what you're bringing to us here is that that is actually the effect of years of imperialist intervention and military intervention, the disruptions from outside.
	Is that a fair statement?
	That's exactly it.
	Yes, Haiti has been crushed under the boot of U.S. imperialism for this past 30 years, at the very least.
	And before that, you have to think one of the first...
	One of the first imperial expeditions of the U.S. was in 1915, again into Haiti, where they stayed until 1934.
	Nineteen years U.S. Marines ran Haiti.
	So Haiti is really the other pole of this hemisphere.
	It is a country founded by slaves.
	It was the first and last successful slave revolution in history.
	And they've always been the other pole of this hemisphere, where the U.S., the richest country in the hemisphere in the world, was founded by slave owners, precisely to prevent slavery from being stopped.
	So, really, they've had a very unfriendly relationship through most of their history.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	I just want to be clear about what you just said.
	You said it was founded by slave owners to prevent slavery from being stopped.
	That's correct.
	Because Haiti was really a harbinger.
	It was the beginning of the end of chattel slavery.
	Never.
	It was inconceivable in 1804.
	The revolution took 13 years, from 1791 to 1804.
	And essentially what happened, you had the French Revolution in 1789, and In Haiti, both the slaves and the mulatto class, what was called the Afragi, the freedmen, who were often the children of slave owners and their slave mothers, so called mulatto, which is a perjurtive term, should not really be used.
	But the affranchis and the slaves both took to heart the slogans of the French Revolution, which were liberté, égalité, fraternité.
	Liberty, equality, and fraternity.
	And the slaves, of course, wanted liberty.
	But the offspring, the freemen, as they were called, the Afranchi, wanted equality.
	Because even though they were born of French fathers, they weren't allowed to be, and they were in a French colony, they were not allowed to be true Frenchmen.
	They were not allowed all the rights of a French citizen.
	So when the revolution came, they said, you know, what the hell is this?
	And this set off the richest colony of The Western Hemisphere, Haiti, what was then Saint-Domingue, was much richer.
	It was the pearl of the Antilles.
	It had more output than all 13 English colonies on North America combined.
	Now, was this trade or was it domestic production?
	And I guess the corollary question is, what does the United States see in Haiti that is worth all the effort to occupy and control this country, this region?
	Well, it was trade.
	It was part of the triangular trade of the colonial period.
	That is, the boats would leave Marseille, they would go to the coast of Africa, trade guns for slaves, take the slaves to Haiti, most prominently, drop them off, pick up sugar and rum, and take that up to Marseille again, and then pick up more guns.
	And the triangle would continue like that.
	So, today, Haiti has huge geopolitical importance in that it's right in the middle of the Caribbean.
	You know, there's that string of islands that goes across.
	Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic, which share the island of Hispaniola, so named by Columbus.
	Its original name in Arawak Indian language was Haiti, meaning mountainous country.
	And then, of course, Puerto Rico.
	So it's a big problem for the U.S. if Haiti were to have a revolution and become another Cuba or something.
	So they are very anxious to make sure that doesn't happen.
	Plus, it is said to have the second largest revolution.
	Deposits of Iridium, which is very important in the manufacturing of our digital devices these days.
	That's an unexpected element to hear about.
	And yeah, Iridium, you know, the U.S. is heavily dependent on rare earths out of China.
	And that's a strategic, you know, critical infrastructure component for electronics and satellite components and military equipment as well.
	So that's really intriguing.
	But probably the most important element, or one of the most important elements, I should also mention there's said to be $20 billion worth of gold dust in the Haitian mountains.
	I mean, it would be very bad and hard to get it out because basically they have to blow off the mountaintops.
	And then sluice them with cyanide and you kill your water table and the whole thing.
	You know, you would basically destroy the country.
	So that's one.
	So there's the gold.
	But the biggest thing is Haitians work for five bucks a day in these assembly factories.
	And as the war with China approaches, the U.S. is looking for places where it can go manufacture its iPhones and, you know, make its underwear.
	and places like Haiti are gonna be very key for them.
	Wow, that's really interesting.
	Is there a migration of labor-based production right now to Haiti from Mexico or from China?
	Well, there has been.
	You know, the way these things work is they just start up basically big hangars, and these manufacturers basically hop from country to country.
	They can pull up in a day and move to Costa Rica or Honduras or Haiti, you know, depending where the...
	Revolution is happening at the time.
	You know, right now, they're avoiding Haiti a bit because it is so unstable.
	But there are a lot of people working in the assembly factories in Port-au-Prince.
	There's one in the north put in place by the Clintons called Caracol and another one on the border with the Dominican Republic.
	Well, what you're pointing out here, I think it's really critical.
	I want to emphasize this for the audience.
	It's not just that the labor is relatively cheap.
	It's also the proximity of the labor to the markets and to the raw materials that are turned into value-added products.
	Geographic location and access to sea lanes is critical to its combination with low labor costs.
	That combination is increasingly rare around the world right now.
	Your comments?
	Yeah, totally.
	Yeah, Haiti sits on the Windward Passage.
	That's the channel between Cuba and Haiti.
	It's the only direct route from the eastern seaboard to the Panama Canal.
	And, you know, the fact is...
	The labor in Haiti at five bucks a day is essential.
	This is why we can go and buy a shirt at Walmart for two bucks, you know, because the people get paid pennies.
	So, you know, Haiti, the labor is the only thing that comes from and stays in Haiti.
	You know, they just bring in all the pieces, it's assembled, and out they go.
	Well, pardon my ignorance, but what currency does Haiti use domestically?
	It uses a thing called the gourd, a currency called the gourd.
	And the gourd used to be, when I started covering Haiti back in the 80s, it was five gourds to a dollar.
	It was fixed.
	But after 86, after Jean-Claude Duvalier left, it started to go up and up.
	Today, the gourd is at 100 plus to the dollar.
	So it has lost value compared to the dollar substantially.
	20 times.
	Yeah, 20 times.
	It has gone from being worth 20 cents to being worth a penny.
	Wow.
	So, of course, that supports a strong export market out of Haiti because dollars are very valuable to bring in in exchange for that.
	But I would imagine the people of Haiti are living in extreme poverty conditions for the most part.
	Well, that's always the catchphrase afterward, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
	But as the great Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano says, it's South America's very wealth that creates its poverty.
	And Haiti is a very wealthy country, you know, in terms of resources and beauty and its people.
	I mean, the Haitian people are extraordinarily resilient.
	I mean, when this country, as this country starts to crumble and we start to see all the I completely agree with you.
	And really got to learn about the resilience of the locals.
	And you don't have a reliable power grid.
	You don't have reliable supplies.
	It's a long way to get to town.
	And that road may be washed out from heavy rains, right?
	I mean, it's just on and on and on.
	You can't get the parts.
	And guess what?
	It's not a crisis.
	It's everyday living.
	You learn to make do.
	And I learned so many things from Ecuadorian people about resilience that I still use today in Texas.
	I look around at fellow Americans, not my close family or friends, but just the general population, and they're weak, they're apathetic, they're unresourceful, they're hyper-privileged.
	They don't know what it's like to live in the real world because it's been so artificial in this country for so long.
	Have you seen the same thing?
	Yeah.
	Totally, yeah.
	They go nuts if they don't have Wi-Fi.
	Oh my God.
	Go home, go to bed.
	So it's a crazy situation how fragile, as you say, we are.
	And yet, here we go about the world trying to impose our vision.
	Well, I mean, we're not trying to impose it.
	We're basically trying to sell our things.
	In Haiti, it was exporting food 30 years ago, 40 years ago.
	But now it has to import almost everything.
	Rice, the Rice Valley.
	Yeah.
	See, that's surprising to me.
	I'm glad you brought that up, but you would think because of the climate in Haiti, you know, aside from the occasional heavy tropical storms that wipe out crops, but for the most part, it would be very amenable to food production there locally, wouldn't it?
	Well, it is, but it's been crushed.
	I mean, it's...
	You know, the market, which has come and stomped on Haiti, and that is, I mean, I take rice as an example.
	The Artibonide Valley in the center of the country used to be the rice basket, and they exported rice.
	This has been removed by, began with Clinton dumping Arkansas farmer rice on Haiti.
	You know, of course, These farmers with a combine a mile wide, you know, they can produce rice much more cheaply than some guy with a hoe.
	So, you know, this is the irony.
	You know, nations began basically as markets which were protected.
	You know, in England, with the emergence of the bourgeoisie there, if you were caught with a shirt of French manufacturer, you know what the penalty was?
	Cut off your arm.
	Is that right?
	But now, they don't have that, or they don't believe in that.
	They say, free trade, free trade, so countries like Haiti can't protect themselves.
	Yeah, free trade is the bludgeon of coercion that's used.
	I think there was a movie a few years ago, I think, about Walmart, and I think it was called The High Cost of Low Price.
	And that seems to be kind of what you're describing here.
	There's a human cost.
	There's a cultural cost to getting the lowest price at any cost.
	And we're seeing it play out in Haiti.
	Let's go to your film, by the way.
	It's called Another Vision.
	I'm going to play the trailer while you kind of describe.
	But go ahead.
	Tell us about this film.
	Well, I don't want to talk over the trailer.
	There's no sound in the trailer.
	I'm just playing the video.
	Oh, okay.
	Just the video.
	Well, what this is telling the story of is this destruction, which we've just described, which has driven millions of peasants off the land, where they were farmers, growing food, etc.
	And they end up in the cities.
	And so you take the city of Port-au-Prince, the capital of the country, which used to have a population, when I did my first film there back in the early 80s, of 500,000.
	Today, the city is a country of 3 million people.
	And so this leaves Hundreds of thousands of people who have no employment, or at least no permanent employment.
	They survive by hawking bottles of sugar water or chiclets or a broken radio, whatever they can.
	And this has created great criminality, of course.
	A lot of people end up just turning to crime to try to make ends meet and survive and keep their neighborhood fed.
	And these criminal gangs have seen a response, much like the Old West in the United States, of what are called vigilance brigades.
	And this guy that you see speaking here, Jimmy Cherizier, his nickname is Barbecue, is the leader of the Federation of the Vigilance Brigades called the G9. And they're trying to stop the crime.
	But what they came to realize was that the crime is Oh, And so he has he was a stellar cop.
	He was he was, you know, just a very charismatic, very articulate guy who was hung out to dry when an operation went bad in 2017.
	And he'd already started to realize the cops were there to enforce this system.
	But when they bit him, they they bit the wrong person.
	And he said, OK, that's it.
	And he basically got together all the like minded neighborhoods in the city and said, we have to stop this and we have to make a revolution in this country.
	So this is the story of that revolution.
	Wow.
	And your film follows him in particular?
	It does, yeah.
	He's really the spokesman, in many ways, the spiritual leader of this movement.
	He's right now, I spoke to him at length last night, They're engaged in a very bitter battle.
	Essentially, what's happened is his coalition, which is called the G9, is an anti-crime coalition.
	They say no to kidnapping, no to rape, no to, you know, thieving or extortion of small merchants, which these criminal gangs do.
	The other gangs are just interested in money.
	You know, they're just, you know, you know, and they, you know, sometimes have the jewelry and whatever.
	They have one of them has a one of the gang leaders who does a lot of kidnapping has his own YouTube channel where he makes money.
	You know, sort of gangster videos.
	You're kidding me.
	Yeah, I'm not kidding you.
	Yeah, his name is Izo.
	You can go look for it.
	Put Izo Haiti in YouTube and you'll find some of his videos.
	Sure, but you know, I'm banned from YouTube.
	I can't be on YouTube.
	Really?
	Well, yeah, I know YouTube is gangsters themselves.
	Yeah, they are their own gang.
	Yes, exactly.
	Yeah, so the story is that essentially the criminal gangs have confederated themselves into another gang or confederation called The JPEP. PEP is people in Creole.
	So the JPEP was formed the day after the G9 formed.
	And so right now, Jimmy Cherizier is being attacked by the JPEP, and he's trying to defend his neighborhood.
	It's basically three areas in the downtown Port-au-Prince against this assault from two neighboring neighborhoods.
	And we believe here at Haiti Liberté that this is really programmed, or as they say in Creole, teleguide, that it's being done by remote control by agents of Washington who want to see this military intervention in Haiti.
	Is one facing this revolution from the base, and this would be a big loss for Washington.
	But furthermore, Haiti is the only country in the Western, not in the Western Hemisphere, one of the 12 countries left in the world who recognized Taiwan as a sovereign country, not a part of China.
	And so, in many ways, as we can see, the U.S. is planning a war on China, and in many ways, Haiti's one of the few countries of over A million people, because a lot of the countries that recognize Taiwan are these little micro-states like St.
	Lucia or Tuvalu or, you know, whatever.
	So Haiti is one that they can point to and say, well, it's recognized by Haiti and Paraguay and Honduras, you know.
	Well, see, that's interesting to me.
	My wife and her family are all from Taiwan, and I lived in Taiwan, too, for a couple of years.
	I actually speak some fair amount of Mandarin.
	Do you speak Creole?
	Yes, I do.
	That's awesome.
	That's really amazing.
	How about French?
	Yes.
	Yeah, I mean, I learned French in school, and I learned Creole when I was sort of drafted into the trenches.
	Okay, and there's a lot of similarity.
	Creole borrows heavily from French, correct?
	Yeah, correct.
	Okay, that's great.
	It borrows heavily, but it is a totally different language.
	It's more like English, you know, the object comes after the verb and so forth.
	Well, yeah, I speak Mandarin at a conversational level, but then there's Taiwanese, which is the local dialect that is kind of derived from Mandarin, but I don't follow it at all.
	It is, as you say, it's its own totally separate language, different semantic structure as well.
	Yeah.
	That's interesting that Haiti continues to recognize Taiwan.
	I'm sure China has tried to come in and buy off Haiti because that's what China does with every country around the world and try to get them to switch their recognition away from Taiwan.
	Well, yes, they have.
	They've offered $5 billion basically to Haiti.
	They say, listen, we'll overhaul Port-au-Prince.
	We'll put in You know, sanitation and electricity and roads and schools and you name it.
	But the Taiwanese are also very much in the ring and have gone and developed personal relationships with most of the Haitian leaders.
	Yes.
	But in any case, as far as the U.S. ruling class is concerned, they are very anxious to keep Haiti, and they devised, bipartisan, it was passed under Trump, a thing called the Global Fragility Act.
	I don't know if this has come across your radar, Mike, but this act is really the U.S. response to the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative.
	Okay.
	And essentially what they're doing is they're So trying to send in US soldiers with USAID sacks of grain on their shoulder, a gift of the American people.
	So it's kind of a combination of the US humanitarian aid structure, USAID, which is a branch of the State Department, And the Defense Department, the Pentagon, you know, send in the troops.
	And they basically sign a contract with a country for 10 years, you know, to base their troops, to turn the country into a military base.
	So that's what they want to do in Haiti.
	They basically want to put US troops in Haiti.
	But they need to get a government in place that can do the inviting.
	So there is no elected, there's not one elected official in Haiti right now.
	From mayor up to president, there's nobody.
	There's just a guy who the U.S. has anointed as being the leader, a prime minister called Ariel Henry.
	So they are trying to intervene in the country to stop Cherizier, to stop this revolution, and to stop China.
	Wow, what a convoluted situation, but I can say, you know, that, first of all, I don't trust the U.S. State Department, and you look at the history of U.S. imperialism around the world, and they often will carry out a coup, they'll carry out an assassination, you know, they'll take over a country in order to pillage it, right, and exploit its resources.
	Well, they've done it twice to Haiti.
	Yeah, exactly, exactly.
	In the past 30 years, yeah.
	And they've done this in the Middle East, and they've been involved in Somalia, and some would argue that this is what NATO's trying to do to Russia even right now, right?
	I mean, the U.S. is all over the world, not saying, hey, we want to support you being your own sovereign nation and your own people, your own culture, your own language and borders.
	Rather...
	We will install a puppet president, and then you will serve us.
	You will be a slave to the U.S. State Department interests.
	That's the attitude that's projected, it seems.
	That's totally it.
	And they did it already in the Dominican Republic, which shares the island, in 1965.
	They sent in U.S. troops under the flag of the OAS, the Organization of American States, but they don't have the votes now.
	They're trying to get it through the U.N., and I addressed the U.N. Security Council on December 21st.
	People can see that on the Haiti Liberté site.
	I was invited to explain to them the situation that their representative of the Secretary General, a woman called Helen Lalim, who is a career State Department official, had been basically lying to them for months and months on end, saying, oh, Haiti is a catastrophe and we have to intervene to save the people and blah, blah, blah.
	And I got in and I told them, I said, you're being told half-truths.
	You're being told lies, basically.
	Yes.
	And that's blocked in the U.N. They're blocked in the OAS. So now they're trying to cobble together kind of a coalition of the willing, as they say, in, you know, get some countries in the Caribbean.
	Right now they have Jamaica, Bahamas and Trinidad, Tobago, who are more or less agreed to front for a U.S. and slash Canadian alliance.
	This is why it's critical to speak to individuals like yourself, filmmakers, authors, journalists, because you know that the American people are only going to get some watered-down State Department press release version of this from the media.
	And even, you know, people like myself, how can I know what's going on in Haiti unless we're there or unless we connect with people like you?
	And that's why I wanted to have you on.
	It's critical to present the rest of the story that we're not being told.
	Right.
	No, it's...
	I mean, unfortunately, our mainstream press, and that's why we have to look to programs like yours and Brighteon and other things to get the real story, because it's completely captured.
	A colleague I did this with, Dan Cohen, he just started a media outlet called Uncaptured Media.
	And so this film that we put together, Another Vision, is really produced by Haiti Liberté, but in collaboration with Uncaptured Media.
	Well, that's great.
	I like the name, Uncaptured Media.
	So let's go over some of the websites here.
	So Haiti Liberté, L-I-B-E-R-T-E, is for people.
	That's how they spell that.
	And then where can people actually find your film?
	Do they rent it online?
	They can go to the Haiti Liberté channel on YouTube.
	Oh, okay.
	It is there.
	And they just put Another Vision Haiti.
	And you will find it both on the channel of Haiti.
	Yeah, that will take you to it.
	You can find it either on the Haiti Liberté channel or on the Uncaptured Media channel.
	And is it free to watch?
	It's free to watch.
	Yeah, we put it out there free.
	The film ended up being two and a half hours.
	So we said, well, Americans are not going to sit through a two and a half hour film documentary on Haiti.
	But if we break it into a series of three, which is what we did, on the site, on the YouTube channel, you can just click the link for the series and it'll play bing, bing, bing, one after the other.
	Oops.
	Okay.
	Yeah, I'm on your channel now on YouTube.
	I see.
	It's the Haiti Liberté channel on YouTube.
	Right.
	Would you also be willing to create a channel on brighteon.com?
	You know, it's free.
	Oh, sure.
	And upload the film to Brighteon.
	That can be a nice backup for you in case for some reason it starts getting censored elsewhere.
	And then when we embed the film or the trailers, we would use the Brighteon embed instead of YouTube.
	Yeah, yeah, no, that's, I mean, we do have a backup version, I think, on Rumble.
	And, I mean, we were going to put one on Rumble.
	I don't know if on Rockfin as well, but at least on Rumble, but Brighteon, we're all in, you know, any alternatives.
	Who are not captured, we're for it.
	Well, not only does it make sense to put it on, I think, every alternative platform you can, but on Brighteon, we're about to roll out a tipping system for not only new videos, but existing videos.
	So people who watch your documentary coming up soon, they'll be able to tip your channel, which can be translated into an actual payment to your organization.
	Sure, that'd be great.
	Yeah.
	Let's use the technology.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's still there.
	I know.
	We have to use it while we can because the censorship is so extreme.
	And I fear that maybe an invasion of Haiti takes place and then the media is ordered to censor any alternative views.
	Sure.
	Because that's what happens with everything.
	Right, yeah.
	No, the minute the spotlight is on us right now, Haiti is considered sort of a sideshow, sort of unimportant.
	I mean, if there's an earthquake, okay, all the spotlights will come on it.
	So, you know, Anderson Cooper can, you know, run around in a t-shirt and save a kid.
	But, you know, it's mostly ignored and unknown.
	And nonetheless, it is pivotal.
	You have to think, you know, Haiti has had this role that was the touchstone for the liberation struggles of Latin America.
	Bolivar He got his guns, his ships, his printing presses, his soldiers from Haiti, which was the first independent nation of Latin America.
	And we could say really the first free nation of the Western Hemisphere, because, of course, the United States was a slaveocracy.
	But this was a country founded by Self-freed slaves.
	And they were the ones who gave Bolivar the means to carry out the liberation of the continent.
	Furthermore, when Haiti had its revolution, Napoleon had been planning to use the colony as a stepping stone to reconquer the English colonies in the U.S., But he couldn't do it when he lost Haiti, so he ended up selling the Louisiana Purchase to Thomas Jefferson for a song.
	So Haiti has had a huge impact on the world and certainly on the United States.
	Wow, fascinating history.
	Yeah, Louisiana Purchase, best deal ever.
	Best deal ever.
	Well, Alaska is the question.
	Yeah, Alaska, right.
	Russia still wants it back.
	But fascinating history.

	Ives.
