Michael Yon visits ANOTHER migrant camp in Panama...
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Okay, this is Mike Adams here at Brighteon.com.
We're back with Michael Jan, who is in Panama, and he's taking us on another visual tour to another camp.
This is not the San Vicente camp.
This is a different camp.
A lot more going on here.
So we're just riding shotgun here with Michael Jan, war correspondent, who has been breaking this news worldwide.
Michael, can you hear me?
Sir, I hear you loud and clear.
Okay.
All right.
We will just stand by.
I understand you need to go through a checkpoint or an entrance or something?
Yep.
So, I'm going through the center front checkpoint now.
We're at what's called Lajas Blancas Camp, which is down in...
We're in Darien Province in Panama.
And this is the camp where people come in from...
Just come in from the jungle, the ones who have survived.
They come off of what's called piraguas, which are dugout canoes.
We'll be in the camp shortly, but you see these buses here?
Yeah.
There were roughly 15 as we drove in, and they're just loading them up, and tonight they'll head up to Costa Rica, and then soon they'll be in the United States.
So how many of these camps are actually operating there?
There's two camps that are outside of the Darien Gap, and then there's two that are inside.
Actually, three.
There's one up by Costa Rica as well.
But there's two that are down here.
The one that we did yesterday with San Vicente Camp, that's where you and I were on.
And now this is the San Vicente Camp, the one that we did yesterday that apparently has gone viral.
Our interview yesterday, you said, that's actually sort of the show camp.
That's the...
The Mayberry, that's the really nice camp.
This is the more realistic camp.
That other camp that you saw yesterday is the one that they take dignitaries to.
This one's further out in the jungle here.
So we're going to see things here that normally the dignitaries aren't shown?
Nope.
Most of the dignitaries never even go to San Vicente camps.
And so this year, there's no telling what you're going to see, but you're going to see a lot of interesting stuff.
So stay tuned.
I've already been to this camp quite a bit, and you're going to be surprised at what you see.
We're going to take a long walk.
We're going to end up down at the river on the other side, and you're almost certainly going to see people coming in from Cadaguas, which is the boats, and they'll be coming in straight from the jungle after having survived the Darien Gap.
Okay.
All right.
So you go ahead and walk.
I'll talk.
I'll give people some background while you walk, and then you just jump in at any time.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
So, folks, again, this is Michael Yan on site in Panama.
I didn't quite catch the name of this camp, but what is it?
Lajas Blancas.
Okay.
All right.
So this is the second camp.
And for those of you who missed the interview yesterday, it's on Brighttown.com.
And we posted it on other channels, platforms like Rumble and Bitchute and Band.video with Infowars.
And Michael Yan here is a war correspondent.
His website is MichaelYan, Y-O-N, MichaelYan.locals.com.
If you want to support his work.
And he is very courageously walking through these camps and showing us what no media organization in America, mainstream media, they will never show us this.
So you're actually seeing the transport factory of migrants gathering here from all over the world, not just South America and Venezuela and so on, but the Middle East and also China.
We talked to some people yesterday, Europeans and Haitians and so on, gathering here.
To be transported to the United States, taken across the border.
Okay, yeah, we want to see the maps, Michael.
Yeah, we're getting you.
The frame rate's a little bit slow, but we're getting it.
Here's one of the maps right here.
I don't know if it's framed up right for you.
Oh wait, that organization.
Hand to your left a little bit there.
Is that...
Hand to my left?
Medical Sin Fronteras.
Yeah, Doctors Without Borders.
Doctors Without Morals.
Without Morals.
Right.
So that map shows the routes right there?
Yeah, that's some of them.
You should see the more detailed maps.
We were in the other camp this morning looking at it in great detail.
I'll send you one of the maps this morning.
Actually, there'll be a QR code down here somewhere.
Matthew, if we see another one.
Wait, wait.
Show me the top of that map.
I want to be able to read that what's albergues para personales en movilidad, Mexico y Centro America.
So this is the routes for the persons.
And there's a phone number down here if you can see it.
Okay.
So this is, they're all being assisted into the routes to get into the United States.
Yep.
Under the guise of like medicine.
There's Anthony.
He's with us.
They're very professional.
Here's a map right here.
We want this map.
Matthew, this is it.
This is the map we've been looking for.
Okay, grab that map.
Yeah, show us.
Yeah.
Can you hold it in the sun?
Yeah, there we go.
This map is highly detailed.
You'll see all the little writing here.
It'll show you how to take the train tracks and you can split.
I think here you can.
Or no, here.
And, you know, if you want to go out to Piedras Négadas, which I spent a couple of weeks there under that train, on the U.S. border, that's Texas.
And then there's other, Ciudad Juarez, you can cross, and then over here in Mexicali.
Yeah.
And do these people, are you able to talk to people?
Why?
Why are they taking this trek?
They found the condoms.
Oh, they found the condoms.
Here, let's go find them.
Okay.
Okay, there's one of the rape kids.
So that you can safely get raped.
Yeah.
Oh, those are the pills.
So those are the anti-contraception pills?
Yeah, we'll show you the whole...
Yeah.
That's condoms.
And what is this one?
Oh, for headache.
That's for pain.
Okay.
Okay.
What is this one?
Open it up.
Let's open it up.
Let's look.
Open it up.
Open it.
Yeah.
All right.
All right.
Now put it on.
Put it on.
Yeah, put it on.
That's good to know these folks have a sense of humor.
Yeah, they do.
All right.
Hasta luego!
Hasta luego!
Don't get me wrong.
I want the border shut.
But I do get along with the border.
Actually, I see a lot of them out here that I... I do meet a lot that I hope they do make it.
And then there's a lot that I... You know, I want to slam that border shut.
Let's see.
So what are all those tents there?
People are actually camping there for some time?
Yeah, yeah.
They bring these tents and they're, you know, they need a place to sleep.
Again, the camp you were at last night was, like I said, that was the show tent.
This is the more realistic, the way it really is.
So why are people camping there?
Is it because it's over capacity and they have to wait?
They just came in from the jungle.
I'm going to show you where they come in.
We're going to go down to the river.
Okay, and are you connecting with anybody that has been, you know, victimized, robberies, rapes, or anything like that?
Oh, yeah.
Constantly, man.
I mean, it never ends.
I mean, like today, we were...
Oh, you remember Oscar Blue, the firefight I told you about yesterday?
Yeah.
Where the racists were shot?
We found one of the women, like, three or four hours ago in the other camp, and she was crying.
She was one of the women that were praying.
And she was with her 12-year-old daughter.
She knew Oscar.
She had seen it on the...
On a video.
She knew Oscar, and we told her we were going to give Oscar her video, and she gave us her contact and that sort of thing.
Okay.
Yeah, you know, Oscar Blue and Ben Berkwam were out in the jungle about maybe 10 days ago now, something like that, and some women were raped.
They came in, and they were crying with the children, and then they told the center front, or the sort of Panamanian army in a sense, they're super professional.
And the Senate front was like, hey, let's go get them.
So they went like five hours looking for the Colombians.
They were Colombians about two or three days walk into Panama.
They looked for them for about five hours.
They finally ambushed them.
I mean, the Senate front ambushed the Colombians.
And Ben and Oscar, Ben Bergman, Oscar Blue got the firefight on video and audio.
So are those water tanks there to your right?
Yep.
And there's the U.S. flag, of course.
Can you see it?
I'm not sure how good your resolution is.
Oh, Lajas Blancas.
Yeah, Lajas Blancas.
That's the name of the camp.
I get it now.
So, these people who are moving through here, they're putting their lives on the line because they believe that America is the promised land?
Oh, yeah.
I mean, they talk about freedom, but obviously...
Their idea of freedom and our idea of freedom are completely different things.
Most of these people are from socialist countries, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Their idea of freedom and our idea of freedom are completely different.
You see that horse in the water?
Yeah, I do.
It looks like a small horse.
Yeah, it is.
So you can see people bathe in the rivers here.
And then they show up on this river in boats and then they just come to the camp?
Yeah, they'll show up right here, right where I'm pointing to you now.
That's where they offload.
Yeah, let's see if we can talk to some people.
So this is one of several migrant camps in the Darien Gap region of Panama.
Where, again, these migrants from all over the world are gathering in order to be shuttled to the United States and granted entrance without going through legal immigration processes.
And this is all by design.
This is all supported by the Biden administration, supported by Homeland Security, supported by Mayorkas.
Your taxpayer dollars are, in essence, funding, in part, these operations.
And so the American taxpayer is incentivizing these people to go on these treacherous journeys involving violence and rapes and robberies and death in some cases.
So the situation right now in the camp is every single day a huge influx of people come in from the river where Michael was just standing.
And they have to come up with $40 a person to pay their bus fare up to the Costa Rican border.
And because so many of these people get robbed in the jungle and they're literally penniless.
And like this girl here that we're just talking to, we met her yesterday.
She's here with her four kids and he's just trying to get enough money.
She's been stuck here for days.
And that's the situation with most of the people in here right now.
The ones left in the camp right now just don't have enough money to get their way out.
So they're stuck here indefinitely.
How are they ever going to earn enough money to get out?
I mean, there's no jobs there.
Yeah, what the Panamanian government does is they'll allow them to walk out and go into Meta Tee.
Or some of the nearby towns, and they'll get jobs working really cheap until they make the money.
But every night, they have to check back into the camp.
It's totally controlled, and they're paying attention to it.
And, I mean, this whole thing is a huge mess on Panama's shoulders.
Panama is not a wealthy company, and we've been asking about who they're feeding them three meals a day at all these camps.
And everyone I asked, who is paying for that?
And Panama is paying for it.
I mean, Panama is paying a huge price for everything that's going on here.
And, you know, the unspoken word is...
They gotta keep it going.
Just gotta keep it going.
So the United States has, in essence, cost-shifted the burden of this to the Panamanian government.
Yeah.
Yeah, and when there's a robbery or a rape, and then everyone points the finger at Panama and says, oh, look, you're not doing a good job.
And, like, they don't want anything to do with this.
They're just passing these people through.
They don't want anything to do with this.
I mean, if you spent just a third of the resources...
Instead of helping all these people and all these humanitarian efforts, just close the border.
Just close the border and stop the rape.
We met a lady today in the other camp.
I mean, most heartbreaking story, this lady was raped in front of her whole family.
And they robbed her blind.
She's been stuck there for eight days.
And it's just a real...
There's so many stories you hear, you just want to start crying.
And a lot of these people, honestly, a lot of these people would honestly make amazing American citizens.
I'd like to exchange them for some that I know that hate America.
I mean, you really feel it.
I started to tell you last night how we spoke to these Chinese.
They were Chinese Christians.
They'd been persecuted.
And these guys were...
They were on fire to tell the world about the evils of Xi Jinping and what's going on in China and how the country is locking down.
It's getting harder and harder to get out.
And they were like really educated, smart people.
You almost kind of like...
You want them to get in.
I mean, your heart goes out to some of these people.
And you have to be, like, when you're here, you want to just say, ah, send them all back, forget about it.
But your heart goes out to these people because if our country collapses, you have to humbly remember that we might be walking the trail in the opposite direction one day.
It could happen anywhere, anytime.
And they're all fleeing.
And that's the other disparaging thing about all this is these people are fleeing.
Like, if this is a gauge of the world right now, it is terrifying because these people are fleeing everywhere.
And the New York Times and different media outlets in the States are saying it's because of global warming, all this nonsense.
This is because of sheer government corruption.
It's just and they're running from it.
And that corruption is spreading and it dominates the United States and Western Europe as well, which brings up the point.
I mean, what you're witnessing there seems like a small taste of things to come.
Yes.
Maybe a mass exodus out of collapsing U.S. cities, for example.
That's why I live here in Panama and I deal with this humbly because honest to God, it doesn't take much to change the course of events where Americans might be walking the trail in the other direction one day.
I know that sounds crazy.
It could happen in a second.
And all of these people are...
I had to tell these Chinese people yesterday gently, you know, when they were talking about digital slavery, digital IDs...
And I said, you know, guys, I hate to tell you this, but all these same things are starting in the United States right now, and they're pushing the same kind of stuff.
And it kind of made them look a little gloomy, saying that.
Yeah.
Well, and I'm really glad what you just said, too, because I'm married to an immigrant.
And we need to attract good quality people into the United States who want to share the American dream and contribute to the society.
But we don't want this criminal element, the gangs, the rapists, and so on.
And the problem is, I don't see any effort on the part of any government to try to sort those two groups out.
It's just anybody.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't mean this as a prejudice statement or a judgment against anyone.
I've been here in Panama when Hugo Chavez came into power.
We saw a wave of Venezuelans that were very educated, very intelligent.
They were anti-communist.
They had a lot of money and they all came into Panama years ago because they saw the trouble coming.
But now what we're getting is they're emptying out the barrios.
They're literally emptying out I mean, everything's emptying out.
We were with a guy, a Mexican journalist named Oscar Blue, a really amazing guy last week, good friends with Michael.
And he followed a whole caravan of Venezuelans that had been released out of prison on purpose and sent to go to the United States.
And he followed them all the way up, and they're all in America now.
And he said they rioted and looted.
So there's a mix of people here.
Some are scary.
Some would make amazing Americans.
But they're all going in.
I mean, it's just crazy.
What you just described, though, is entirely consistent with the fact that a lot of left-wing district attorneys in blue cities are also releasing prisoners, violent criminals, onto the streets, refusing to prosecute them.
And it seems like, frankly, this is Operation Chaos to try to just suffocate the United States under lawlessness and chaos.
And it's a national suicide wish, it seems.
Yeah.
When you look at this, you look at the maps...
Those maps, if you look at those maps and the little bullet points on them, it's exact details all along the way of where to stay the night, where to check in.
I mean, it's like, here's how you do it.
And this is being paid for by the United Nations and other non-government organizations that are funding all this.
You can only conclude that...
Somebody's doing this on purpose.
Yeah, clearly.
Yeah, it's just the hand of it is everywhere you look down here.
You can smell the stink of it.
It's just...
I don't know how to describe it.
It's crazy.
Well, it's corrupt governments putting people into dangerous, unfortunate situations, essentially victimizing everybody along the way.
I mean, I consider many of those people there to be victims of this...
They're ensnared in a system that deceived them.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
You're so right.
I'll put Michael back on.
I don't mean yet to hog up everything.
No, it's great.
You gave us a lot of good information.
Thank you.
Yeah, no.
Thank you.
Thank you for everything you're doing.
We appreciate it.
We appreciate the exposure.
Well, the United States thanks you for what you're doing.
And also thank you, Michael.
What are these guys showing you there, Michael?
I'm back in.
These guys are actually showing videos of some bodies in their rivers here.
Oh, they're showing you videos of bodies in the river?
Try angling it down a little bit.
Yeah, there we can see something.
People in the river?
Oh, that's people crossing.
Earlier a guy was showing us bodies in the river, which is normal.
Okay, it's really hard for us to see that.
It's not really coming through.
Okay, well, I'll send you some.
Gracias.
Yeah, you'll see a lot of people come in and they're showing you photos and videos of bodies in the river.
Like, I heard a story today about a woman, I think she was Haitian, said her child died and she hanged herself off a tree in the jungle.
I've heard stories like that many times, and I asked him if he saw her, and he said yes.
I've heard similar stories many times about people's children dying out there, and then the people commit suicide.
Yesterday, in this camp, people were talking about, on the Mountain of Death, there's part of the area, so the mountain's always changing, the routes that you can take.
And you can't always take your children.
It's just too dangerous.
And so they'll be throwing their children in a river below, but very dangerously.
Some of the adults will go below and try to catch the children as they go on the river.
The children don't want to go.
They're terrified.
You can't take the children down the mountain.
It's too dangerous.
They literally throw them off the mountain into the river.
Stuff like that's normal.
I mean, it's endless.
You'll just hear one story after another.
So do these people ever, I mean, do they ask you for money in order to escape these conditions?
The Venezuelans do.
The Venezuelans in particular, more than anybody else.
I mean, that's like almost a done deal that Venezuelans are going to ask for money.
But most of the Haitians do not.
Some do.
A lot of the others don't, but definitely Venezuelan.
If we're live long enough, you'll see.
Even if you had, I mean, it's an endless need for money.
I mean, even if you had money, you couldn't have enough for everybody, and there'd be more tomorrow.
Brother, if you pull out a dollar here, that's a mistake.
So folks, this is Michael Yon reporting from the Darien Gap.
Oh, here we go.
Was it Lajas Blancas Camp?
Lajas Blancas and this is Brighttown.com where you're getting this broadcast and Michael's been kind enough to...
Why don't you go talk to these folks?
Yeah, Matthew, can you ask him what's going on?
He wants to move to the United States to make ceviche, Peruvian ceviche.
He's from Peru.
Ah, okay.
He wants to work in America.
Okay.
From Venezuela.
Okay.
Peru.
Peru.
Venezuela.
Venezuela.
From Haiti, okay.
Can you ask them, how many days have they been here?
How many days?
Oh, you speak English?
How good is your English?
I'll put you on the microphone.
Oh, she's speaking great!
Okay, let's talk with her.
I'm going to give her the microphone up.
Yeah, get her on, get her on.
Hi there.
Hi there, how you doing?

Tell me about your journey.
and we travel for rocks and water and so horrible there was so hard only the legs hard hard all pain painful all is hard and strong and we are my brother they little they walked I was hard and when are you planning to leave Tomorrow?
What's your plan to leave the camp?
And here, all is hard too.
Here, you need money to continue and we don't have.
Okay, so you don't have money to continue the journey.
Yes, we don't have.
And out here, so people stay for 15 days.
More time they stay here because they don't have money.
Wow!
So, hay oportunidad para trabajando cerca de allá, o no?
So, people stay here trying to work, but someone can't do that.
So, do you have a plan how to leave the camp?
No.
Imagine, so people stealing back I'm trying to attack women and all that.
And you travel and walk and stay here.
You think, oh yeah, here we can stay calm.
But you can't.
You can't.
You come five days and you walk to here.
And here all is terrible too.
And you need to continue because here you can't.
You're really amazing, and we wish God to bless you and your family.
May I ask, how old are you?
I'm 16 years old.
You're 16.
And how is it that you speak English so well?
We're from Venezuela.
Oh, okay.
So your family is well-educated in the universities?
Is that right?
We're from Venezuela.
People from Peru, people from Nigeria.
And your plight is very difficult for us to hear.
I'm reporting from the United States.
And very few people know about this.
Yeah, we're going to.
Yeah, people know about this.
Al, when you come here, you know that it's hard.
But in our country, we can't do anything.
You only want to eat, and you have no money.
You can't continue there.
That's because we do this travel, because we can't.
We can't stay alive there.
So when you make it to the United States, what do you hope to do?
We're going to work and going to study because in other places we have no future.
There you can't.
You can't have money.
You can't study.
Includes people like me that want to do things.
You can't.
You can't.
You have no opportunities.
Yeah.
Well, let me say from America, from the United States, we hope that people like you will join us, people who are passionate about the freedom and the United States and who are educated.
We appreciate you.
We want the freedom.
We want the future.
We want opportunities.
Here, you can't.
You want to continue.
You want to do things and travel.
You need to do that.
Emily, to all the people here, you need to do that.
Well, you are amazing.
I don't know what else to say, but God bless you and your family.
We pray for your safety, for your journey.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
You're extraordinary.
Can I ask you one more question?
Yes.
How did you find out to take this route?
How did you learn about coming to this camp?
You need to have more information.
And there, in the travel, there are places when you can ask and you only can continue by the water.
There are places you need to find the place.
There are not so much places when you have camino, camino.
No hay mucho camino.
Not many roads.
You need to find that.
You need to find that and continue and continue.
There are days...
Your legs are horrible and you need to continue because there you can't.
You need to continue to have more opportunities.
Yes.
And how many members in your family with you?
Six are here with me.
There are four children and two adults.
And there are two people more that help us so much.
They help us so much.
And there are one person more.
They are from Peru and he come here with us.
To continue too.
And here we found some people from other places, from IT, from Nigeria.
We help out people.
And there, on the jungle, on the city, there was so much people all walking.
Six, six, five, seven days, they are there.
And they can't go out.
Children, babies.
Women with babies too?
They passing by there and all are from opportunities.
All are going from a good future.
You have no opportunities.
You need to continue.
May I ask you, do you share the principles of the United States, like working hard and contributing to society and being a law-abiding citizen?
Yes, we all know that.
That's because we are going there.
And if you make it there, what do you plan to do?
Work and study and do things like that.
If your family arrived to the United States, what would they do for work?
They are manicure, pericure, mechanic, things like that.
And we learn so much.
We learn so much.
I like to learn so much.
They are going to study.
My brothers, they play, they do the boards.
They are so people, so much talent that...
Don't do so much things.
That's because they have no opportunities in our country.
So that's because we continue.
Can you give us your first name only so we can find you again?
Just your first name?
Emily Marquez.
Emily Marquez.
Emily.
Okay.
Muchas gracias, Emily.
Muchas gracias.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
God bless you and your family.
Thank you.
And yeah, please give that back to my friend.
Wow.
Wow.
She's amazing.
Michael, that's amazing.
I hope her family makes it.
I mean, Michael, it's heartbreaking.
I mean, such a bright, promising young woman.
Good job, Emily.
She's amazing.
Yeah.
I mean...
Oh, Facebook.
Michael.
Wait a minute.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She has a Facebook page?
Hold on, go ahead, real quickly, put it on again.
My dad's Facebook, Eddie Marquez Martinez.
Wait, say it again please.
Eddie, with double D, Eddie, Y, Marquez Martinez.
Okay, Eddie Marquez Martinez.
Yes.
And that's on Facebook?
Yes.
Okay, and thank you so much.
And let me talk to Michael for a minute there, my friend Michael.
Michael, if you can hear me, I mean, how do we help these people?
I mean, you know, my heart goes out to these people.
How do we help them?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Every one of them here that's in the camp right now is desperate just for 40 bucks.
I mean, it's crazy.
It's overwhelming.
And you can see the fire in her.
She's not an idiot, you know.
She's looking for a better life.
She's doing the same thing you and I would be doing in the same situation.
You know, another thing, me and Michael, because I've been with Michael so much down here, we followed...
So much of this and another thing that this is causing that you don't hear about is the Darien is just this pristine virgin rainforest and it's being absolutely decimated with trash and as all the tens of thousands of migrants go through.
I mean since January they have had over 100,000 cross through Welcome to my show!
And we've gone into a bunch of the indigenous communities around here.
And what's happening is they're losing their culture.
Their kids are being stripped away from them.
They're working as coyotes.
And they're not out in the crops, in the fields, sowing crops anymore.
They're all following the migrants.
Some of them have set up little stands in the jungle selling Coca-Cola.
Other guys are using their piraguas to drive them around.
And there's this whole subculture now thriving off of this.
And all the Indian chiefs are super bummed about it because they're losing their youth.
And then there's the crime element.
So many of these people are being used as mules because they're coming through the jungle from Colombia.
They're being used as mules to carry drugs, to carry who knows what.
You know, you don't come in through a...
X-ray machine when you come in through the jungle.
It's not like an airport entry into a country.
You can be carrying anything and hide anywhere.
Exactly.
Yeah, and we're here with the Panamanian equivalent to the Panamanian Border Patrol, which is Santa Front.
And these guys are like really professional, good guys.
And all of their time is being taken up, going out and doing rescues in the jungle.
Right.
And they're going out and extracting people who are super sick by helicopter, people who have fallen, people who have been raped, and it's like they're just taking care of everyone.
Can I interrupt?
I mean, I'm really taken aback by Emily's talk with us, and I really fear for her safety and her family because she's 16.
I'm sorry, what did you say?
I said I'm concerned about people like Emily being only 16.
I'm concerned about her safety and her family.
I mean, my God, is there anything that we can do that won't contribute?
I have no idea.
I have no idea where to even begin.
Yeah, I don't know either.
I don't know either.
I mean, I'm sitting here in Texas.
We're blessed with so much financial support, reader support.
But we are powerless to help these people right there get out of the trap that they've been pulled into.
I mean, what can we do, for God's sake?
Yeah, well, like as we're walking around here, everyone in this camp is asking you for a few bucks.
I mean, everyone needs money.
Everyone needs money.
That's all I can say.
I don't know how you get it to them.
You know, we were warned when we come in here, don't even come in with money because it can be dangerous.
Yes.
It's so overwhelming, the whole scope of this.
You just don't know where to begin.
And Panama is just a little country dealing with this on their own, really.
The burden is on them right now.
It's crazy.
Yeah, you can't.
If you become known as someone who hands out money to people, you won't be safe.
You won't be able to function.
Yeah, no, no, no.
The first day in here, I made the mistake of handing someone a few bucks, and I suddenly looked around, and I could hear the silence around me, and I felt like I was in a water with sharks, and I'd taken out a big chunk of meat, and I got a little nervous.
Yeah, appropriately so.
I mean, people there are desperate, many of them no fault of their own, but, you know, they're trying to save their families from what may be, you know, a horrible death or trapped, being trapped.
Yeah, yeah.
Nobody here is...
Nobody here is tricking you.
They're really coming from heavy situations.
When you're willing to walk through the trail like that, you're not joking.
You're not playing with anyone.
A guy from Nigeria earlier told me today, he said, when you're faced with choosing death in your own country or danger, you'll always take danger.
True.
And I guess that's what it comes down to.
There's so many people here.
And also, and by the way, I thank you, sir.
Can you give your name publicly?
What's your name if you're sharing that?
My name is Matt Tomlitt.
I grew up here in the canal zone in Panama.
I am an American.
My father was a ship pilot in the canal.
I met Michael years ago coming down here, and I'm kind of just his humble driver.
That's all I do.
And I take him around and go out in the field with him and some other reporters.
I like showing the world.
It's so important that Americans know what's going on.
There has to be a change in...
The politics in the United States or this is going to get so much worse.
We just had an extreme left-wing government elected in Colombia and also in Brazil.
Yes.
And this is not going to get any better.
It's going to get much worse.
This is an extraordinary humanitarian crisis.
Maybe I can put you on speaker.
Okay, no problem, Michael.
I just want to encourage everybody to spread the word about this.
Share the videos here from brighttown.com.
Support Michael Yon's work.
He's at Michael Yon, Y-O-N, MichaelYon.locals.com.
Alex Jones is covering this on InfoWars.
People are being killed and raped.
They're being robbed.
They're being trapped in the worst circumstances imaginable.
Here, hold on.
And we're living in a world where...
There's this vast divide between the poor and the wealthy, and it's because of totalitarianism.
It's because of tyrannical regimes.
And frankly, for those of you watching in America, this is where America is going to be soon if we don't change the policies, if we don't get our constitutional republic back.
Well, Michael, this is just extraordinary.
You've shown us some...
Eye-opening, shocking things.
The American people are taking notice of what you're doing there, Michael.
Earlier today, General Michael Flynn was tweeting out a link to the video, and Laura Logan and a lot of other prominent people have been talking about this.
Is there anything else you want to say to everybody?
It's just that you ain't seen nothing yet.
I mean, this is just...
You're still getting just a foretaste.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
We're going to go out deep into the jungle tomorrow...
I don't think we can live stream out there.
It's possible.
There is actually one hill I can go up on and get signal.
But that one, it'll be, that one is about, if the river is nice and open, it takes minimum three or four hours to get up to the village on the Piragua boats.
But we might be able to drive to it, which is pretty uncommon.
It's pretty dry right now.
And I might be able to come on tomorrow at Bio Jaquito Village.
That's proper dairy and gap out there.
Okay, well, keep me posted.
Of course, we'll have you on anytime you can get a signal.
You and I are in touch, so just let me know.
And then when are you coming back to the States?
Maybe another week or so.
Got more work to do here.
Okay.
And then I'll probably come back and see you.
I'll come by and...
Let's go to lunch, and we've got a lot to talk about.
Yeah, no, let's do this.
Get you back in Texas.
Let's go over to the Infowars studios, get you on with Alex over there, and then after that, come over to my studio.
We'll just do back-to-back with you on the same day.
Oh, good.
Okay.
That sounds great.
Okay.
All right.
So, Michael, we're going to wrap this up.
Any final words for today?
No, sir, but we need to close this down.
I mean...
This is just one of the flows into the United States.
We're just being overwhelmed.
As you can see, it's not like they're all bad people, but our economy's collapsing as well, right?
Yeah, this is a preview of things to come for America.
Michael, you're very courageous.
You are so appreciated.
You have no idea.
I receive so much positive feedback, and we all pray for your safety, so be safe.
I know you have a lot of world wisdom about traveling, but just be cool.
For any of the Dutch people, you know what this is.
Yeah, that's right.
Farm freedom.
I carry it with me.
We have a lot of Dutch fans out there.
They're fighting for their freedom as well.
That's right.
When I was in the Netherlands, remember?
He saw me on your show and he was like, yeah, tell Mike.
Yeah, exactly.
We've got a lot of fans in the Netherlands and all over Europe as well.
So, Michael, thank you so much and be safe.
Keep in touch.
Let me know.
Anything that comes up, we can get you on immediately.
Sounds good.
Talk with you later.
All right.
See you in Texas.
All right.
Take care, Michael.
Bye.
And thank you all for watching today.
This is, of course, I'm Mike Adams of brighteon.com.
And you've been hearing from Michael Yon.
And his website is Michael Yon.
That's Y-O-N..locals.com is where you can reach him if you want to support his work.
I know he could use the support.
He's putting a lot on the line and doing real journalism, which is so rare these days.
You've just seen extraordinary footage that the mainstream media absolutely will not show you and that big tech will not allow you to see.
That's why we are censored.
We continue to be censored by Twitter.
Of course, Facebook.
Of course, Google.
All of it.
Because they don't want you to see what Michael Jan just showed you and what we broadcast here on Breitian.com.
So thank you for watching today.
Share this video everywhere you can.
You can also repost it.
Feel free to copy it, download it, repost it.
Get the word out.
We're all here fighting for humanity.
We don't want to see these people suffer.
And that poor girl, you know, Emily and her family, I don't even know how to help them, but she doesn't deserve to be in that situation.
Her family deserves a chance at freedom.
And we believe that is a universal principle for humanity.
So let's end this suffering and let's get a system in place that is legal and lawful and organized so that we can bring the right immigrants into America to contribute to our society while keeping out the criminal element that's exploiting this channel.
Those are my thoughts on the subject.
Thank you for watching today.
Mike Adams here, Brighteon.com.
God bless America.
Take care, everybody.
Well, I don't know about you, but I'm heartbroken.
I'm devastated.
I'm frustrated after having that walkthrough tour.
I don't know how Michael Yan does it there.
Those people are trapped.
They're victims.
They're being exploited as a migration wave by the United Nations, which is working to destroy the United States.
And by the Biden regime, which of course is also working to destroy the United States and rig the next election.
I mean, this is a horrifying reality.
And these sad victims do not probably realize that they may be leaving tyranny in their home countries of Venezuela or wherever they're coming from, but they're hopping right into another kind of tyranny in the United States.
Unless we take our elections back...
Which would mean they would have to vote against the Democrats and these people are unlikely to vote against Democrats because they think Democrats are keeping the borders open.
So this is a spiral of doom of the United States.
So it's a very shocking situation and it's a Clearly it's a humanitarian crisis, but it's one that was engineered by the powers that be.
They created this humanitarian crisis because they wanted the political benefits of it.
They've done this all on purpose.
And you notice that entire broadcast video was uninterrupted by any kind of advertising, you know, ad-free.
We just needed to bring you this critical story.
Of course, I will mention, if you want to support us, shop at healthrangerstore.com.
We do need your support to continue to maintain these broadcasts.

And of course, we appreciate your support immensely.
We couldn't do this without you.
And note that the mainstream media, the corporate media, the government orgs, they're not talking about this.
They're not showing you what we show you.
In fact, they go out of their way to try to censor us and shut us down.
They do not want the American people to know the reality of what's happening in the world.
Even things that are coming to our world.
So they censor all of this.
You're only going to get this kind of story or this kind of video or this kind of interview in the alternative media, including Brighttown.com, NaturalNews.com.
And I was a guest earlier on Infowars.com with Alex Jones, and he invited me on to talk about this very story.
And when Michael Jan gets back into the States, we're going to get him on with Alex over at InfoWars and then bring him to my studio, get him in studio to talk about these issues and just...
Nobody else other than alternative media is covering this.
So, by the way, to those of you listening in alternative media, I thank you.
And we are in this for all the right reasons, working together to try to save our country.
There's so many great alternative media sources out there.
We index a lot of them at censored.news, by the way, if you want to check them out.
There's, you know, LifeSite News and Infowars and The New American and...
100% Fed Up and Gateway Pundit and Zero Hedge and a bunch of others, Epoch Times.
It's all there at censored.news if you want to check it out.
Real-time headlines.

We appreciate you.
We are fighting for humanity every single day.
Of course, I'm Mike Adams of brighttown.com and also naturalnews.com.
And hey, tell Elon Musk on Twitter to stop censoring our channel and censoring our URLs so you can share our videos, which you currently can't do on Twitter for some reason.
They're at war with Brighttown and Substack.
It's crazy.
But do everything you can to get the word out about this.
And we'll keep bringing you this...
Exclusive, compelling, jaw-dropping content and amazing interviews, amazing guests, amazing analysis every single day.
