	Alright, welcome to Bright Town Broadcast News from Monday, May 8th, 2023.
	Mike Adams here, and trust me when I tell you, you don't want to miss the interviews coming up this week.
	I'm not going to give out all the names at this point, but you won't want to miss this week.
	Tomorrow through Friday.
	For today's interview, by the way, we have the Dr. Tal Braun interview that I actually conducted on, what was it, last Thursday.
	And I held that, and you're going to be hearing it today.
	And we have some other very important breaking news on a number of fronts, including the invasion, the illegal alien invasion of America that is happening this week.
	And, of course, there was some violence that happened in Texas.
	Some migrants were run over by – it's not clear, but they were hit by an SUV driven by a man who appears to be Hispanic and appears to perhaps have been drunk.
	It's not clear, but we'll talk about that and see what that situation is.
	And several migrants were killed at a bus stop, sadly.
	Just violence in the streets.
	But there's way more violence coming, and I want to read you a Telegram post that was forwarded to me.
	I'm not sure he wants his name mentioned, but I'm going to go ahead.
	Oh, I guess, yeah, here it is.
	I'm going to read you a post from Blazing Press here shortly.
	There's some really important cryptocurrency news this week, and as you know, I have asked everyone listening to become competent in understanding crypto, understanding how wallets work, how to buy, sell, send, receive, exchange, crypto, because, well, there are some really critical factors.
	Coming up, as the dollar collapses and the FedNow program is rolling out in the next 60 days, So, you know, the truth is that the dollar is going to be made digital, and the American people are going to be forced, or at least an attempt will be made to force them into a digital money system run by the Federal Reserve and the government.
	And the alternative to that is non-centralized digital money, which is cryptocurrency.
	Peer-to-peer, decentralized, non-spyware, non-malware, decentralized, privacy-oriented coins.
	Well, Bitcoin is having some major problems right now.
	By the way, Bitcoin is not a privacy coin.
	There's no privacy.
	The entire ledger is completely open, completely transparent.
	And I don't know why so many people are still moving money around in Bitcoin when everything you do in Bitcoin can be tracked by anybody, not even just government, but literally anybody, because there's open source tools to track people's wallet activities.
	Anyway, from Cointelegraph.com, Binance closes Bitcoin withdrawals amid congestion on the Bitcoin network.
	So Binance is, of course, one of the major exchanges, just like Coinbase and Gemini and KuCoin and a few others.
	Binance is one of the big ones.
	They have halted Bitcoin withdrawals.
	I mean, think about that.
	If you had Bitcoin with Binance, you can't get your Bitcoin out right now.
	Now, I'm hoping they will resolve this, but what's behind this?
	Well, according to Cointelegraph.com, the Bitcoin...
	Mempool, which is just part of the transaction infrastructure, was clogged with over 400,000 transactions waiting to be processed.
	And that was yesterday on May 7th.
	The price or the cost to transact in Bitcoin right now has jumped to about $9 per transaction.
	And for some transactions, it's over $20.
	So, Bitcoin, I mean, number one, this is showing that Bitcoin is unable to scale In a way that's necessary to support the supply and demand.
	And by the way, there's some crap coin meme coins that are apparently driving all these transactions on the BRC20 chain, which is part of the Bitcoin blockchain.
	So all these people are trying to buy and sell these crap coins, which are mostly just scams, and it's clogging up the whole Bitcoin system.
	And so right now then, it's going to cost you almost $10, in some cases more than $10, just to move Bitcoin around.
	That is a failure.
	And you can't get it out of Binance.
	And it takes a long time for the transaction to take place.
	So Bitcoin has become...
	Number one, non-private.
	Number two, slow.
	And number three, expensive.
	I mean, think about the original promise of Bitcoin was it's going to be private, cheap, and fast, right?
	And instead, it's the opposite of all three.
	No privacy, not cheap, not fast.
	Freaking slow, expensive, and surveillance.
	I mean, there's Bitcoin.
	That's what Bitcoin has become.
	Very sad, actually.
	And a lot of this goes back to the fact that, well, Bitcoin's original structure It was designed in a time before modern day algorithms and, you know, improved blockchain systems like MembleWimble, for example, which is, you know, light years ahead of the Bitcoin blockchain.
	And so, I mean, you can't really blame the people, the mysterious people who created Bitcoin because they just didn't have the math at that time, didn't have the tech at that time.
	So they kind of built what they thought was the best thing and didn't scale.
	It didn't scale.
	The blockchain became massive.
	And it's bloated because of all these wallet IDs, which are on the blockchain.
	And the wallet IDs expose you to being surveilled by everybody.
	So, again, Bitcoin has really failed at what it was designed to do.
	Nevertheless, I actually, and my opinion on this has...
	Evolved over the last few months as I've watched what's been happening with the banking system.
	I actually think that certain types of crypto have a very strong future and specifically coins that have a privacy component.
	And I think the most mature coin in that space right now is Monero.
	Monero can be bought and sold and exchanged on all kinds of exchanges, and it's known as a privacy coin.
	And there are privacy components to other coins like Zcash, but for the most part, those privacy components are never used.
	Like 95-97% of the time, Zcash is not private.
	And Litecoin also has a mimble-wimble add-on.
	I don't know what you want to call it.
	Where you can, in certain exchanges or wallets, you can select memble-wimble privacy.
	But I haven't seen anybody actually implement it.
	Like, nobody.
	So, I mean, it's just a theory, frankly.
	Or maybe it's just a beta test.
	But I haven't seen anybody actually use it in the real world.
	So there aren't actually very many functioning privacy coins that, and I should qualify this, that can scale.
	That are truly private, that use the Memble Wimble blockchain, and that are non-confiscatable, because Bitcoin is fully confiscatable.
	And most of the purchases of Bitcoin are tied to people's names and social security numbers and so on.
	But all this said, of course, as you know, I'm doing a lot of due diligence and digging into the newest tech that I'm finding.
	I'm also digging into Monero, some of the tech there, some of the updates there.
	I do believe that as the banking system craters, more and more people are going to get out of the banking system and they're going to go into gold and silver and crypto.
	And I didn't think this, I don't know, a year ago.
	So my thinking has changed on this.
	Also, one other point that's worth pointing out is that I used to think a couple of years ago, I used to think that the only crypto that I would ever use or accept would be crypto backed by gold and silver.
	And I still think that idea has a lot of merit for certain applications.
	Because as I used to say, well, gold and silver would be the only thing offering intrinsic value to the crypto.
	But that has changed dramatically because of, well, government tyranny.
	So since governments are now locking down people's bank accounts, governments are issuing financial blacklists.
	And by the way, I'm on that blacklist.
	PayPal canceled my account for that very reason.
	And my company can't even do business with PayPal.
	So we, we've been blacklisted, Canadian government has, of course, seized bank accounts from people who made donations to the trucker, convoy, peaceful protesters, and so on.
	What gives privacy-oriented coins their value today is not whether they're backed by gold or silver, but whether they are truly private and therefore non-discoverable, non-traceable, non-confiscatable.
	And then on top of that, with privacy comes automatic fungibility, because no coins can be tainted by the behavior of previous owners of those coins.
	And then on top of that, what makes a great coin is not only the privacy properties, but also then scalability, which is where Bitcoin is failing right now, and also...
	Non-bloat of the blockchain, which means Mimblewimble is by far the better blockchain, and Monero isn't using that yet, which is why the Monero blockchain is pretty darn big, and it takes Monero a very long time to sink the blockchain, its blockchain.
	So right now, there is no perfect coin.
	Right now, there is no one thing that solves all the problems and is mainstream and easily bought and sold and exchanged and is private and is fast and is cheap and the blockchain is all compressed and CoinJoin and Dandelion and Mimble Wimble.
	There is no perfect coin that has achieved this degree of success in all these areas that is also widely recognized.
	But there may be There may be soon.
	There may be coming up, and we'll see.
	In the meantime, I strongly recommend you become competent in this area.
	And if you want to know which wallet that I recommend, it's called Exodus.
	I think you can just download that at Exodus.com, I think.
	And learn how to use that.
	Learn how to send and receive small amounts of coins.
	Learn how to exchange them.
	Just become familiar with how it all works.
	If you have two computers, just set up an Exodus wallet on two computers and then just...
	Get a hold of some Bitcoin somehow.
	You can just, I guess you can buy it on Binance, except you can't withdraw it.
	So you can go to Gemini or some other place.
	Or have a friend.
	Like, send me, you know,.00001 Bitcoins.
	Just get a little bit of Bitcoin and send it to yourself.
	Just so you can see how it works.
	It can be a dollar's worth of Bitcoin.
	Okay?
	Just become competent in this area.
	Alright, now let me read you this post from Blazing Press.
	And I don't know who Blazing Press is.
	So, you know, take this with a grain of salt.
	But I'm going to read this for you.
	And it does line up with a lot of things that other sources have told me.
	So let's just see what this says.
	Alright, here we go.
	From Blazing Press on Telegram.
	I think their username there is TrumpetNews1.
	I think that's it.
	Okay.
	From Blazing Press, Law Enforcement Intel, regarding the flood of immigrants and the collapse of the USA. My source is a LEO, which is a law enforcement officer, attached to a task force in North Central Washington.
	His team was responsible for the blanket bust of East Washington a couple of weeks ago that took over 160,000 fentanyl pills and 160 pounds of heroin off the streets.
	Yeah, pounds.
	160 pounds of heroin.
	He attended a gathering in Idaho last week that brought all of the primary agencies together to give their own sort of State of the Union and law enforcement.
	He had opportunity to attend multiple classes on the myriad issues this country is dealing with, but because he is dealing directly with all of the cartels from Mexico, his focus was on that area.
	And here is what he shared.
	Now, I just want to remind you folks that I haven't vetted this source, so take it for what you will.
	I don't know who this is and I can't verify all this, but let's see what he says.
	He says, quote, the housing crisis from a couple years ago was part of a greater plan.
	60% of that bubble was owned by China.
	Not surprising as we watched them buy the majority of BLM land and national forest property.
	They were paying 10K plus in cash over the asking price, which is what drove the market.
	These houses were then converted into grow houses for cannabis.
	The profits from these cannabis operations are then flown back to China to launder, essentially.
	I'm paraphrasing some of this.
	The Chinese, now owning half the homes in this country, which, that doesn't sound accurate to me, by the way.
	I don't think the Chinese own half the homes in this country, but whatever, we shall continue.
	Now have locations to house the 1,500 to 6,000 male Chinese immigrants that are pouring across the Mexican border daily.
	Now that part is true.
	So yes, there are 1,500 to 6,000 male Chinese immigrants pouring across the border daily.
	And of course, we know that directly from Michael Yan at the Darien Gap at the border.
	And Michael Yan has been texting me all kinds of stuff over the weekend.
	And it's just, it's my God.
	The invasion is getting, yeah.
	These migrants are amassing for the invasion to happen this week.
	So this post continues.
	Well, what does it have to do with the Mexicans?
	And the answer is territory.
	Since the Mexicans have moved their business into different funnels, such as fentanyl and avocados and cocaine.
	Now, first of all, by the way, I'm offended by the fact that avocados is thrown in there with cocaine and fentanyl because, of course, I really appreciate the avocado trafficking because I need to eat a lot of avocados for my smoothies.
	And I don't think avocados belong with cocaine and fentanyl because they're not, well, I was about to say they're not addictive, but I'm not sure I can go without them.
	So maybe they have a point.
	Okay, whatever.
	Fentanyl, avocados, and cocaine.
	Like a day in Michoacan or something.
	The Chinese capitalize on the cannabis market.
	While keeping to themselves.
	However, the open market isn't so open anymore, I'm reading from the post, as the available territory is almost gone.
	I guess that would be unclaimed territory.
	Once these territories become encroached and bodies start hitting the floor, then the real collapse of America begins.
	Okay, I don't know exactly what that means.
	Quote, this is why they don't want you armed, because there will be a war in our streets, as it has to happen, in order for our country to be dissolved and to usher in their new world order.
	Hope this helps you make better plans.
	Stay frosty.
	Okay.
	Alright, so whoever made this post, we thank you for sharing the post.
	Hope you don't mind me reading it.
	I don't agree that the Chinese own half the houses in America, but they are sending thousands across the border every day.
	And I do like avocados.
	Don't know about fentanyl or cocaine.
	Haven't tried either.
	Especially not in smoothies.
	But I do agree there's going to be a war in our streets.
	I'm not sure if it's for the reasons that this person posts here, that it's, I don't know, that the cartels are running out of territory.
	Is that what he's saying?
	They're going to battle over territory for where, who can sell avocados and cocaine?
	I mean, I don't quite follow that logic, but I do agree there's going to be war in the streets for lots of reasons.
	And one of the main reasons, I think, is because, well, all these soldiers are going to be given orders.
	There's going to be what I call an activation day.
	And I don't know if you call that like the National Purge Day or whatever, but an activation day where quite literally, perhaps 100,000 plus CCP soldiers, maybe more, who have infiltrated America, posing as students, posing as...
	Workers posing as migrants, whatever.
	I mean, I guess they are migrants, but their real agenda is to be staged in the United States and then wait for orders.
	And on that activation day, and I've talked about this before, they will go to the storage centers where there are stockpiles of full-auto rifles, illegal suppressors, body armor...
	Night vision, mortars, surface-to-air missiles, explosive vests, and so on and so forth.
	Like every explosive type of thing that you can smuggle across the border.
	And they're going to go to these locations and they're going to hand out all the equipment.
	Here, you go blow up that refinery.
	You go blow up that power grid.
	You go blow up those train tracks.
	You go set that bridge on fire, whatever.
	It's got to be freaking chaos.
	This is all about the domestic terrorism.
	But it's really a national attack against the United States of America to bring it down.
	And with this plan, they're going to bring America to its knees.
	And the thing is, the CCP is working with some of the Mexican drug cartels.
	So the drug cartels are going to move in with their armored vehicles, by the way, toting gang members, I guess, with some avocados in the back.
	They're going to take territory and claim it.
	Take it away from the United States and then China is going to be just causing mass chaos across the U.S. And then on top of that, you have all the violence that's been whipped up by the media and the mentally ill transgender militants who are all taking psychiatric meds now, it seems.
	I have a story on that.
	And they're going to be picking up AR-15s and going to town against Christians and so on.
	I do think that's going to happen.
	Now, we got a little taste of that, sadly, in Texas over the weekend.
	There was some mad shooter.
	At some retail outlet mall in, I think, Allen, Texas.
	And this mad shooter, as I understand it, now, forgive me if any of these details are wrong, because the details are always kind of sketchy early in this news cycle, but apparently this dude just drove up in a car, didn't even park, he just stepped out of the car, With what looks like an AR-15 rifle, and he just starts blasting away at people just walking down the sidewalk at this mall.
	And he killed and wounded something like 20 people, including a 5-year-old kid.
	And he was stopped by a law enforcement officer.
	I think an on-duty officer, actually, who was responding to something else nearby and heard the gunshots.
	And he says, whoa, you know, shots fired, and he runs over there.
	And he sees this dude just shooting civilians on the sidewalk.
	And so this cop plugs this guy and takes him down.
	You know, number one, good job to the cop.
	Because this could have been...
	Apparently this shooter had a lot more...
	He had spare mags all over a chest rig, is what I saw in the photo.
	Looks like he had like six additional spare mags.
	So he probably had 180 rounds.
	You know, on his chest, plus the 30 and the rifle.
	And he was just getting started.
	That guy maybe planned to kill 50 people.
	Oh, and by the way, that mall was a gun-free zone.
	Don't forget that.
	Another one of those gun-free zones where you don't want to go.
	Because nobody could shoot back.
	You know, normally in Texas, like if you step into a cafe, let's say...
	And you pull out a rifle and start shooting people, you're not going to make it very far because half the people in that cafe are going to pull out a sidearm and return fire.
	That's why overall Texas is a relatively safe place.
	Because everybody's armed.
	An armed society is a polite society.
	But you go to one of these gun-free zones, and the law-abiding citizens are not allowed to carry guns, and they follow the rules, so they don't carry guns.
	The bad guys choose those places to light up a bunch of innocent civilians, and that's exactly what happened.
	And then you've got to wait for law enforcement to respond, where in this case, we got lucky.
	Law enforcement was right there, and he had the courage.
	Whoever this officer is, I don't even know his name.
	He had the courage to return fire and not just wait around in the parking lot like they did in Uvalde, you know, where you had like 150 cops waiting around doing nothing while all the kids are being slaughtered inside the school because it's all some kind of, you know, weird gun control push where they're sacrificing children in the name of gun control. weird gun control push where they're sacrificing children in the But that didn't happen in Allen.
	In Allen, a cop stopped the shooter.
	But that was only the first incident of violence in Texas over the weekend.
	There was another incident.
	I don't recall exactly where this took place.
	And again, details are kind of sketchy.
	But apparently, an individual driving SUV... Appears to have veered into a crowd of what looked like migrants, probably mostly illegals, waiting at a bus stop, and the SUV rolled.
	I mean, it was out of control, and he skidded and rolled, and it killed, I don't know how many, seven or something.
	It just plowed over a bunch of innocent people who were just standing there at a bus stop.
	And...
	Of course, the left-wing media immediately jumped to the conclusion that this was some kind of planned vehicular manslaughter attack on illegals.
	It's not at all clear that that's the case.
	It looks like probably a drunk driver, although, again, details may become more clear over time.
	But it looks like a drunk driver.
	The guy looks Hispanic, actually.
	I saw a picture of him.
	He looks like a Hispanic guy, driving drunk, lost control, and just rolled into these innocent people.
	That's what it looks like right now.
	Although, again, we'll see as more details become available.
	And I do want to say, for the record, these two examples of violence are outrageous.
	Obviously, they're unacceptable in society.
	They are incredibly evil.
	And nobody deserves to be rolled over by an SUV standing at a bus stop, whether they're legal or illegal, documented, undocumented, or what have you.
	I would not wish that upon anybody.
	No matter what.
	And nobody deserves to just be shot walking down the sidewalk at a mall when you're out shopping for discount tennis shoes or something.
	Nobody deserves to just be shot for nothing.
	Doesn't it make you wonder if MKUltra is getting amped up right now?
	Like these are Jason Bourne type of characters or something just being dispatched out there with the command like, cause maximum violence!
	Something like that.
	Doesn't it make you wonder?
	Because I think...
	I know this is going down the conspiracy rabbit hole here, but I do think that there's a lot of sheep-dipped people that are all wound up and on these meds and on these control systems and all their brains are twisted up.
	And I think the deep state keeps an inventory of these people that they can dispatch to go do stuff, like giving them orders.
	Like, you go shoot up this hospital.
	You go shoot up these innocent people.
	You go do this, do that.
	It's kind of like...
	Deep state-sponsored terrorism on demand or something.
	I think they have a bunch of Jason Bournes all wound up in the basement somewhere, and they can command them to do all kinds of crazy things.
	But I can't prove it, but that's what I think.
	On the other hand, sometimes some people just snap.
	That might be the simpler explanation.
	Who knows?
	It's also worth noting that perhaps the driver of this SUV himself might have been an illegal...
	Because you may recall that several years ago, I was rear-ended by a truck driven by an illegal alien in Texas who smashed the back of my vehicle.
	And of course, he had no insurance, no driver's license, and the police won't do anything.
	They won't give them a ticket.
	They won't cite them nothing because they never show up in court.
	So they basically have total legal immunity, kind of like the vaccine companies.
	So if you're an illegal alien driving in Texas, you have absolute legal immunity, by the way, to just smash up and wreck into anything you want.
	And the police, for the most part, don't do anything unless you kill somebody, and then they actually do something, which is what happened here.
	But I was rear-ended by this guy, and he did, after that, he did pull over with me into a parking lot area, and I asked him, because I can speak enough Spanish, you know, I asked him, like, yo, what happened?
	What's up?
	What's going on?
	And he said, he told me he fell asleep.
	He fell asleep.
	Like approaching a traffic light.
	He just fell asleep.
	He didn't put any brakes on it, by the way.
	Just slammed right into the back of my vehicle with no brakes.
	Did some considerable damage.
	And thank God for headrests, by the way.
	But, you know, it's like, dude, why are you falling asleep?
	And you know what the answer is.
	Because they're working 16 hours in some illegal sweatshop somewhere or something, or working three jobs, getting paid cash, you know, Western Union, that money back to their family in Mexico.
	They're overworking, and they're tired, and they're not getting enough sleep, and they're driving on the roads.
	And this makes the roads crazy dangerous.
	For locals, you know, for Texans.
	And by the way, in Mexico, they think the shoulder is another lane.
	So if there's a shoulder on any road in Texas, the illegal drivers, they just use that for everything.
	They're just driving along on the shoulder like it's another lane.
	And you look at them and you're like, dude, what are you doing?
	That's a shoulder.
	It's like, whatever.
	In Mexico, it's another lane.
	And then, by the way, to make matters worse, all the highways in Austin were designed by morons.
	And the on-ramps to the actual highway I-35, the on-ramps and the off-ramps, especially the on-ramps, you have about 1.2 seconds to merge.
	And then the lane ends.
	It's like a concrete barrier.
	Like, what?
	Did mass murderers design this highway system?
	And the answer is yes, yes, yes.
	Of course, it's in the city of Austin.
	Everything is insane there.
	But my bigger point in all of this is that over the weekend, we got a taste of the violence that's coming to America.
	There's going to be a tremendous amount of violence.
	There's no question in my mind about that.
	And yet, at the same time, we have the ATF saying that they want to take away all guns.
	I mean, I'm paraphrasing.
	They want to take away all the guns from all the law-abiding citizens.
	And you know that the arm brace ban is kicking in at the end of this month, which means you only have about three weeks remaining for either a TRO, if a judge issues a temporary restraining order, or otherwise, all of us who have arm brace pistols, we have to remove those arm braces, which I'm planning to do anyway.
	But if we don't get a TRO, by the end of this month, I just want you to be aware that if you have an AR-style pistol with an arm brace, you're going to need to remove that arm brace and decide for yourself how you wish to comply with ATF regulations.
	Now, the ATF says you need to register it with them as a short-barreled rifle.
	You know, fingerprints and the whole deal.
	But since their new rule only applies to AR pistols with attached arm braces, then if you remove the arm braces, it's no longer a pistol with an attached arm brace.
	It's just a pistol with no brace.
	So, you decide what you want to do.
	I'm taking the arm braces off, which kind of renders these pistols not nearly as useful, but...
	That's okay.
	I've got folding stock AR-style rifles like the Sig Sauer MCX with like a 14.5-inch barrel with a, you know, pin and welded flash hider on the front, so it's the full legal 16 inches with a folding stock.
	That's pretty good.
	In fact, I have one of those from Bravo Company, so that's a pretty nice, it's called like a scout rifle.
	That one doesn't have a folding stock, but it's still a pretty nice rifle.
	Anyway, there's plenty of other options.
	Don't let the ATF scare you into thinking that you can't own an AR-15.
	What I'm saying is just, of course, obey the law.
	Don't get yourself into legal trouble.
	But at the same time, make sure that you are competent.
	In rifle usage or pistol usage, make sure that you understand safety.
	Make sure that you are keeping your skills up.
	You can practice dry fire, for example.
	Look that up if you're not sure what that is.
	There's all kinds of ways that you can keep your skills up and just be ready for things to get very ugly and very violent out there in society over the next couple of years because that's the direction it's all going.
	I'm also going to remind everybody, too, that when you're buying ammo for self-defense for your rifle, you know, most of the ammo that's sold for AR-15s is just full metal jacket ammo.
	That's what most people have, and they don't think about the fact that, well, gosh, you need sort of expanding tip ammo for your rifle, not just your handgun.
	I found this to be very odd.
	In the gun community, a lot of people, they know they need to buy self-defense expanding hollow point rounds for 9mm for their pistols.
	But then for their rifle rounds, it's all full metal jacket, which basically makes 5.56mm diameter holes in the target.
	It doesn't expand.
	It creates a hole the size of a pencil diameter.
	Okay?
	That's not necessarily going to stop some crazy, insane, violent lunatic.
	You need expanding rounds for your AR-15.
	If you're going to, you know, consider a self-defense deployment, which is your right to defend your life, defend your home, defend your property.
	You know, perhaps if we are attacked by China, we need to defend our nation, right?
	So the two types of ammo to look at, by the way, are Vortex, which is V-O-R-T-X. I think that's Barnes, by the way.
	And then also another round called Controlled Chaos.
	And for some reason, the Controlled Chaos rounds...
	Usually they're only available in.223 instead of.556.
	I don't know if they just have less powder, less chamber pressure, less velocity.
	I'm not sure.
	But the Vor-TX, which is, again, I think it's a Barnes product, is an excellent choice for a self-defense round.
	So just keep that in mind.
	If you're out there buying ammo...
	Yeah, you need the full metal jacket ammo for target practice and just competency training and so on.
	But you need self-defense rounds for other purposes.
	Same thing if you have a.300 blackout rifle, which I really like that.
	It's a very versatile setup.
	.300 blackout.
	It's just...
	It's great.
	I'm not going to go into details here, but with your 300 blackout rounds, make sure you have expanding tips, i.e.
	hunting rounds in 300 blackout if you're deploying them for a self-defense purpose.
	But again, just as a disclaimer, follow all your local laws.
	Get adequate training, understand all the safety, keep guns away from kids, do all the common sense things to own and possess these weapon systems in an ethical, honest, law-abiding way.
	That's what I support when it comes to firearms.
	Now, one more interesting note that you might find surprising.
	Remember last week when I showed people how I was solving the Rubik's Cube?
	And I think I showed the final layer.
	I was showing some solves, what's called OLL or Orient, Last Layer, and PLL, some of the algorithms.
	And you notice that solving the cube, you use a lot of finger tricks, as they're called, little finger flicks and thumb flicks you're using.
	You know, your thumbs, your index fingers, and for some of the lower turns, you're actually using your pinky or your ring finger.
	And it's a very, believe it or not, using the Rubik's Cube requires a lot of manual dexterity.
	And I'm here to tell you something that probably you've never heard from anybody who is a speed cuber.
	And here it is.
	These same skills make you very good on the AR-15.
	They do.
	They do.
	Because...
	I should do a video on this.
	How practicing the Rubik's Cube makes you better with your AR-15.
	There's a move.
	I'm actually doing it here.
	There's a move which is called U. It's a rotation of the upper layer.
	And there's a move called U2. Which is two flicks of the upper layer.
	That move, which you do with your right index finger, is exactly the same as a double tap on the AR-15 trigger.
	So you can be practicing Rubik's Cube and actually improving your AR-15 trigger times.
	Did you know that?
	See?
	Little secret.
	I told you, you'd learn something interesting here every day.
	So maybe you don't want to be walking around with a rifle somewhere, obviously, because it might draw attention.
	But if you're walking around with a Rubik's Cube, practicing finger flicks, people just think you're a crazy nerd, which is much safer.
	So the other thing is that manipulating the AR-15 requires a lot of precise hand-eye coordination and also finger coordination, including loading the magazine or swapping out the mag using your left hand typically if you're a righty.
	Because your right hand is holding the rifle, the pistol grip, your left hand is swapping magazines.
	And then you need to either rack the charging handle or you need to press that little ping pong paddle and release the bolt carrier group to load that next round.
	All of these skills are actually finger skills that share a lot of crossover training with using a Rubik's Cube, believe it or not.
	But the trigger time is something that's really, really important if you're facing, let's say, if a zombie mob attacks your home and breaks down your door and they're coming for you, how fast can you fire?
	And I've mentioned this before, so I don't mind mentioning it again, but when I was training with...
	My Navy SEAL buddies, and we had these timers.
	Actually, I've still got one.
	I just haven't used it for a while.
	These timers that can time, they listen to the sound of the crack of the bullets, you know?
	And these timers can tell you your fire rate.
	So these timers, they go beep for you to start, you know, and then they tell you how many seconds before your first shot, and they tell you how many shots per second that you fired.
	And it was very, very common for us on a properly tuned AR-15 to shoot five rounds a second.
	Very common.
	You can shoot five rounds a second if you have a flickety-flickety index finger, which you can practice on the Rubik's Cube.
	And although I've never been in a firefight because I was never in the military, never deployed in the military, obviously, and thank God I've never had to pull a gun on anyone in any kind of situation, never had to shoot anyone, thank God.
	But I can tell you from the people I've spoken with who have been in these situations that in the heat of real battle, Rapid rate of fire is critical.
	You need to rain down a lot of lead on your enemy.
	And you might do that.
	This is with a semi-automatic rifle, by the way.
	These are not full auto rifles, obviously.
	Just semi-automatic, you know, with your finger.
	You can empty a 30-round magazine in about 6 or 7 seconds.
	And will that cause somebody to, you know, maybe duck, cover, flee, rethink their position, ask themselves, why am I here?
	You know, 30 rounds heading their way?
	Yes.
	And then while they're pausing to rethink what they're doing, you're reloading.
	And if you have those hand skills and finger skills, you can reload in like two seconds.
	Maybe three.
	If you suck at it, it can take, you know, ten seconds.
	But if you practice, you can do it in maybe two or three seconds.
	And then, boom, you're back up and running.
	Seriously.
	So, look, there are people who can solve a Rubik's Cube in under five seconds.
	I mean, look it up.
	Those are the world champion guys.
	Five seconds.
	There are also people...
	Who can put, let's say, six AR-15 rounds into each of five different targets in, let's say, easily less than 20 seconds.
	Maybe even faster.
	Probably faster.
	Competition shooters, there are some very, very good competition shooters out there.
	And is that a skill set that is handy to have?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	Given where things appear to be headed.
	For self-defense, you may be engaging multiple targets.
	And this is a time to think fast, not slow.
	This is a time to be able to lay down multiple rounds, not just fire once and see what happened.
	Like, boom.
	Did I get him?
	No.
	It should be like, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
	And the next target, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
	Next target, boom, boom, boom, boom.
	And then you empty your mag.
	You drop that mag, actually.
	You drop it, you pop in a new one, and you're back up and running.
	You're checking targets, and also hopefully you have a glove on because your barrel's getting really hot at that point.
	I hope you have a nice glove and a handguard on that sucker because the heat factor will become something to contend with.
	But you get my point.
	So there are a lot of manual dexterity skill sets that will translate into firearms proficiency improvements.
	Of course, nothing replaces actual range time, especially for sight acquisition of your target, lining up your pistol sights especially.
	You know, pistols are very complex for people to use proficiently.
	Rifles are much easier.
	Pistols take a lot more training, especially all kinds of grip problems on pistols and people shooting.
	You know, people always push on the nose down when they pull the trigger and wondering why their shots go low.
	Always shooting perps in the balls, at least on paper targets.
	Yeah, it's because you're anticipating the shot and you're dipping the nose down every single time.
	People do that all the time, but you can train that out of your habits to where you just hold it steady and you shoot.
	One final note on this and I'll move on, but I know a lot of cops, and cops go through a lot of training.
	These days, it's a lot of simulation training.
	But cops are trained to shoot until the threat stops.
	And you'll see this in police shooting videos.
	They don't just shoot the perp once and then wait and see what happened.
	Oh, is he down?
	No.
	No.
	You shoot, shoot, shoot.
	As a cop, you keep pulling the trigger until the threat stops.
	And you'll notice that cops are unloading magazines into perps, especially a perp charging them with a knife, for example.
	A cop is just unloading an entire mag.
	That's the correct thing to do.
	That's my point.
	That's the correct response.
	You keep shooting until the threat is over, which means that the threat has collapsed in that case.
	And if the threat doesn't collapse, if a guy's charging with a knife, keep shooting, you might have to back up, you might have to create distance, you might have to reload, and you might have to keep shooting because he might be high on some kind of crazy drugs or what have you, and he might still be coming at you.
	And if you're very experienced, you might realize maybe you should shoot The pelvis.
	Because that stops them from walking, it turns out.
	For some reason, you shatter a pelvis and they just go kerplunk and now the threat has stopped.
	But for newbies, they're always trained to just shoot center mass.
	They can't really place shots.
	So, you know, they can just be shooting some guy and just hitting him in the shoulders and hitting him in the belly and whatever.
	The guy's still coming at you.
	So, I didn't mean to make this a gruesome discussion.
	Sorry about that, but...
	These are things we all have to actually be concerned with.
	So pick up your Rubik's Cube, practice that flickety-flick with your index finger, and realize you're also training to fight zombie mobs.
	Now, how crazy are things going to get?
	Well, here's a story out of the Epoch Times.
	U.S. heading toward power grid reliability crisis warns the energy commissioner.
	See, this isn't me saying this.
	This is the energy commissioner.
	Is this of California?
	Is this the whole country?
	Let's see.
	There were 10,000 energy projects in April designed to produce more than 2,000 gigawatts of power waiting for permits from federal and state agencies to connect to electric grids across the United States.
	The problem is...
	That two bottlenecks are looming says this story.
	More power is trying to squeeze into an inadequate grid.
	And coal-fired plants are being retired faster than new plants using renewable energy sources are being built to replace them.
	So federal, oh this is FERC, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Commissioner Mark Christie says, Warned on a May 4th hearing before the Senate, quote, the United States is heading for a reliability crisis.
	Now, he used the word crisis, folks.
	Not me.
	He did.
	You know what a reliability crisis means when you're talking about a power grid?
	It means blackouts, folks.
	It means blackouts.
	And he goes on.
	He says, quote, I do not use the term crisis for melodrama.
	But because it is an accurate description of what we're facing, he says.
	I think anyone would regard an increasing threat of system-wide extensive power outages as a crisis.
	Oh my gosh!
	This guy's telling the truth.
	A system-wide extensive power outages.
	Okay?
	So he's not holding back.
	So when I say we're going to have blackouts...
	The commissioner, the FERC commissioner says, yep, going to be blackouts.
	And this is sworn testimony.
	All right.
	So this is due to, quote, premature fossil retirements.
	In other words, Joe Biden and the climate cult lunatics are taking offline the coal-fired power plants and, you know, natural gas and so on.
	They're taking all that offline.
	But they're withholding the permits for anything new that would replace it, such as solar and wind and what have you.
	Just not enough new power coming in to replace it.
	So what's...
	I mean, we can do math.
	If you take electricity generation capacity off the grid and you don't replace it, you don't have enough power on the grid.
	And on top of that...
	Guess what?
	In New York, they've just banned gas stoves, so everybody has to have electric stoves with all new construction.
	Well, I mean, is that going to cause more demand on the grid?
	Oh, you bet it will.
	Everybody turn on their electric stoves.
	And then what about all these electric cars?
	Electric trucks.
	And in California, they want to have electric trains.
	You think that's going to use power?
	Oh, yeah!
	What are you doing?
	What did you plug in there?
	I'm recharging the train.
	It's like, how big is that plug?
	How many kilowatt hours did that suck out of the grid?
	50 million, you know?
	Just to toot this train a couple of miles further, you know?
	It's insane!
	So I remind you, system-wide extensive power outages...
	Okay, system-wide means everywhere.
	Extensive means widespread.
	Power outages means power outages.
	So, blackouts everywhere.
	Now, I ask you, I mean, surely this is all by design.
	Right?
	So just as Joe Biden wants to weaken the military, again, I think the Biden regime is actually controlled and blackmailed by China.
	This is all the CCP plan.
	So they're going to take down the power grid while they weaken the military, while Russia invading Ukraine caused the U.S. military to ship all our munitions over to Ukraine.
	So there's nothing left to protect America domestically while they have the wide open border invasion of thousands of CCP soldiers or operatives each day to be activated on activation day.
	And on that day, probably there'll be cyber attacks on the financial system, cyber attacks on the power grid.
	And, of course, you know, the CCP operatives will be told to go blow up refineries and blow up power substations and what have you.
	By the way, any of you who have electric cars, good luck.
	Good luck on that day.
	Your car will be useless.
	Your electric truck, useless.
	No grid, no transportation.
	You can't even stockpile electricity at your house.
	There's no cost-effective way to do that.
	Whereas it's pretty easy to store a thousand gallons of diesel in a thousand gallon tank.
	But you can't store the equivalent value of electricity in anything unless you want to spend like a couple of million dollars on batteries.
	By the way, I should give credit to our sponsor here on this very point.
	If you go to sat123.com, they sell the EcoFlow devices, which are the solar generators, you know, the power stations.
	And they sell the solar panels.
	They've got some really nice units, and you can charge up these lithium devices.
	They have charge controllers and inverters on them, and then you can use that power to charge your own devices or even run...
	Some blenders or small freezers and things like that.
	So sat123.com, just scroll down and you'll see the EcoFlow devices.
	Everybody should own some kind of a backup power storage device.
	I own several of them.
	In fact, I own many EcoFlow devices.
	Because in an off-grid situation, you can even use that to charge power tools.
	What's the value of an electric drill in a collapse?
	Well, it's pretty valuable.
	Or an electric saw that runs on a battery that you can actually charge from solar.
	That's pretty valuable.
	Or to be able to charge a mobile phone or charge a laptop or charge the batteries for your super-secret night vision so you can see the zombies as they cross the bridge onto your property or whatever.
	You can get your Rubik's Cube skills ready.
	But you're about to live in a third world country.
	Well, unless you live in Texas.
	I would imagine Texas is probably going to keep the power grid on because Texas has a lot of energy.
	And I don't know, maybe Wyoming will be able to keep more power plants going because Wyoming has a lot of natural gas and come to think of it, so does Louisiana and Mississippi and so on.
	But a lot of states like California, forget it.
	It's going to be blackouts.
	Now, when I lived in Ecuador, by the way, the electricity was not very reliable.
	And so you kind of get used to living with blackouts if it's something that happens a lot.
	The thing is that where I lived in Ecuador, the temperature was always springtime.
	You never really got too hot.
	You never really got too cold.
	So you never had to run a heater or an air conditioner.
	In fact, nobody even really had those.
	And so electricity demand was much lower.
	And if you don't have electricity, you just throw open the windows.
	Anyways, hey, everything's fine.
	But that's not true across America, is it?
	If you don't have electricity in the winter, people freeze to death.
	And if you don't have electricity in the summer, people die from heat because the air conditioning doesn't work.
	And by the way, if you live in New York, you can't even boil water.
	You can't even cook a meal because all the stoves have to be electric at this point.
	So you're pretty much screwed.
	Now, living without electricity sucks.
	And at some point, your community runs out of water pressure.
	Oh, the joy.
	No water pressure.
	So think about all this, folks.
	I'm not going to go into all the details here.
	You can download my free audiobook if you want.
	It's called Resilient Prepping.
	And that's at resilientprepping.com.
	I tell you how to prep for no electricity.
	And also, by the way, no combustion engines, too.
	Like, total collapse.
	And it's not easy.
	It sucks.
	But Mark Christie here is telling you this is going to happen.
	This is not health ranger theory.
	You know, this isn't doom and gloom.
	This is said testimony by the guy that runs the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
	He's telling you the blackouts are coming.
	They're going to be system-wide.
	They're going to be extensive.
	Those are his words.
	You'd be a fool not to listen to him.
	It's like if the pilot is flying the plane, That you're in and you're at 39,000 feet and the pilot comes on the intercom and says, hey everybody, this is the pilot.
	This plane's going down.
	You should probably plan accordingly.
	You should believe the pilot because he's the one flying it.
	You should believe Christie when he says the power grid will not work reliably.
	He knows what he's talking about.
	In fact, if anything, these government bureaucrats, they tend to, if they're trying to deceive, they would deceive on the side of downplaying the problems, which may indicate the problems are even worse than what he's admitting to.
	I don't know for sure.
	But that's a possibility.
	But even at minimum, if the problems are just as bad as what he's saying, we're going to have rolling blackouts.
	And it's all by design, I believe.
	So it's a good time to start asking yourself, what are your backup sources of water or heat or air conditioning or food?
	Refrigeration?
	Good time to know about canning and pickling and salt curing and things like that.
	Yeah, drying, drying food without using electricity, sun-dried.
	And then we have to consider the chaos factor in these cities when the power grid goes down.
	So you know what that's going to look like.
	It's going to be crazed, insane mobs that are almost out of control on a normal weekend when the power grid is functioning.
	When the grid goes down and stays down for any period of time, even 12 hours, A lot of these cities are going to devolve rapidly into lawless chaos and violence.
	And that's when you don't want to be there.
	And finally, one big reason why I believe all of this is happening is because it's designed to happen.
	These are not accidents.
	It's not oversight.
	When they are taking coal power plants off the grid and not replacing them with anything else, it's deliberate.
	It's not an accident.
	I mean, you can do the math on kilowatt hours, or gigawatt hours in this case, but you can do the math and you can figure, hey, we just don't have enough capacity, at the same time that they're adding electric cars and electric stoves and electric everything, even electric hot water heaters in California now, where you're not even allowed to have a gas heater anymore.
	I mean, it's insane.
	They want everything on the grid, and then they're tearing down the grid.
	It's all by design.
	They want you to have nothing.
	No power, no ability to cook food, no refrigeration, no running water, no police, no firearms to protect yourself, right?
	Nothing.
	No free speech, no honest elections, nothing.
	They want you to have nothing because this is how they plan to collapse the United States of America.
	Oh, also no borders, forgot to mention.
	Oh yeah, and no currency that you can count on because they're collapsing that too.
	All by design, that's how I know it's going to happen.
	All by design.
	This is the blueprint plan.
	There are no accidents or coincidences when it comes to this plan.
	This is all happening step by step.
	So folks, get yourself some body armor while you still can.
	If it's legal...
	I think in New York you can't buy it, but hoplightarmor.com H-O-P-L-I-T-E Hoplightarmor.com They've been a great sponsor over the years.
	I think discount code Ranger gets you 10% off, perhaps?
	Check that out at their website.
	Get yourself some body armor.
	It's American design, American made armor.
	Ballistic armor.
	All kinds of different levels and everything.
	You might think, why do I need body armor?
	Well, Think about where this is going.
	And if it's right for you, get some.
	It'd be a great barter item, too, you know?
	And if you want to support us, HealthRangerStore.com for certified organic, storable food, superfoods, personal care products, and so on.
	And also a really nice first aid gel that's colloidal silver and made with seven essential oils.
	It's a really nice product there.
	And I have used that product extensively with my animals on my farm and also on myself.
	It's like my dog sometimes accidentally makes me bleed during really intense training skills and things like that.
	Yeah, that's the other downside of having a highly trained military attack dog is sometimes you'll bleed...
	In the middle of training, and it's just an accident.
	It's like, oh, oh, just accidentally nicked my arm right there or my hand.
	Yeah, he didn't mean to, but they are so powerful that you will bleed from time to time.
	So I use the silver gel on that, and it always heals up.
	HealthRangerStore.com, if you want to get some of those goodies for yourself.
	Thank you for your support.
	All right, with all that said, then, let's go to the interview with Dr.
	Tal Braun.
	I think you will really enjoy this.
	It's a fascinating discussion.
	And don't miss the show tomorrow as well.
	I promise you, it will be interesting.
	So until then, take care.
	Thanks for listening.
	Mike Adams here, and enjoy the interview with Dr.
	Tal Braun.
	Welcome to today's interview on Variteon.com.
	My guest today is Tao Braun.
	He's a returning guest and he is a science-minded individual and I think curious about the universe and has an extraordinary amount of knowledge about what's going on.
	In fact, Tao, welcome to the show, by the way, or Dr.
	Braun.
	Maybe I should introduce you that way.
	Tao is great and I was hoping, I don't know if it was me, maybe it was Wishful Thinking or someone else.
	That you recently referred to as a high IQ individual.
	I would like to be referred to as a high IQ individual.
	Yeah, I would put you in the category of a high IQ individual.
	It was great.
	I once did a presentation for Mensa and it was really interesting because getting an opportunity to present to people whose IQs have been registered and they're in the genius level and then when you get an opportunity to impress those people, And I think it's fairly certain that you can feel like you're at least in a high IQ category.
	I know that an interesting part about a lot of people, and I would put you into this category too, we really are needed at the moment, and it's not about necessarily intelligence as it's measured by standardized testing.
	The world is desperately needed for thinkers that are able to see the gestalt, the whole picture.
	100%.
	That's what we're doing here.
	That's what we're doing.
	We're connecting dots.
	In fact, people who have assessed my style of thinking and cognitive patterns have described it as whole brain thinking, holistic thinking, right brain, left brain.
	And we are necessary, like you said, to see the big picture and connect the dots.
	Because in society today, it's very easy to get stuck in one little corner of data or just look at economics only or just look at culture only or just look at tech or finance or whatever.
	Big picture time is where it all becomes clear.
	And big picture, in my view, and I'll ask for your comments on this, but big picture is we are living through a deliberate, planned extermination of the human race.
	Do you agree or disagree with that?
	I absolutely agree.
	I don't think that the intention is to eliminate everybody.
	I think that the intention is to eliminate most people.
	Agreed.
	And basically create Earth as a form of almost like, you know, back in the day when Club Med was the thing, right?
	I don't know what even it is today, you know, whether it's Ibiza or anything else.
	So clearly I'm not on the party circuit or even have time or the resources for vacations during a genocide.
	But whatever it is right now, sort of the Club Med version of the world where Less than 1%, much less than 1% of the world would be the goal of these folks to basically then enjoy the planet on their terms without what they believe in terms of the rest of us just being a waste and a noise for them.
	And it really is just the same way they have exclusive clubs with everything else.
	They want an exclusive club called Earth.
	Elon Musk, though, I think has understood...
	That there's a short lifespan on those kind of clubs, which is why I think he's infatuated with leaving the planet as a backup plan or as at least a feeling that, hey, this won't work out pretty well because you're going to kill off all the animals and make this place unlivable.
	That's why I think he's pretty obsessed with space because… It's like, you know what, if this room isn't working out, where do I move to?
	What's the next room?
	What's the next door?
	Well, but it's, you know, space is harsh, man.
	Vacuum.
	You know, all the water sublimates into vapor crystals.
	I mean, you want to talk about a tough time.
	I don't know why these people think, I want to go to Mars and grow food on Mars.
	Really?
	You probably can't even grow food in your backyard.
	I mean...
	I love the topics you bring up because I've actually tried to be a farmer and I am a horrible farmer.
	I did a pretty cool thing in that when I was working my doctorate, I realized that if I had to spend the next three or four years of my life in a library somewhere, it was going to be hell.
	So what I decided to do is I bought a motorcycle.
	I bought a Russian-made bike called the Euro with a sidecar.
	And I left on that, and I saw 32 states of this beautiful nation, and I worked on small farms.
	I did organic farming and small farming all over the country.
	I got to see big cities, small cities.
	I drove through the Rust Belt all the way through.
	I went west, as the classic say, go west, young man.
	And I went west, and then I came back and everything in between.
	And I've got to say that what I love about being on small farms is There is a role for everybody.
	So for me, I don't have the patience to sit and watch spinach come out of the ground slowly, slowly, slowly.
	But I'm the guy that if you need stuff demolished, if there's manual labor, I love it.
	Someone gave me a chainsaw and said, go to work on the property.
	I'm that kind of guy.
	I'm also a fix-it kind of guy.
	But everybody, as you know, when you build a system like that and when it's small enough, Where you don't need massive sort of integrated systems that become inhumane.
	There's a role for everybody.
	Everybody gets to enjoy what they're good at.
	Yeah, well, that's true.
	But you bring up a lot of things there, and it kind of reminds me of the big question I wanted to ask you before we got a little bit distracted.
	But I want to get your big picture sitrep, basically.
	So where are we in history right now?
	What's actually happening around this?
	And let's try to clear out some of the propaganda cobwebs of the mainstream media and just say, like, what's real now?
	What would your take be on that?
	Well, I'm going to start by saying what I sort of notice in terms of...
	I've been thinking a lot, even as my work relates to mass killings.
	You know, a lot of that happens because of existential crisis, lack of meaning in people's lives.
	I compare it to an existential starvation.
	I've looked at the physiology that actually drives mass killers, and it is a starvation.
	It's the same cycle.
	There's a dopamine cycle.
	There's a fixation.
	It's like a hunter that's out there that's starving to death that just can't get the animal.
	They can't get the sights on the animal or they keep scaring away their food.
	And so they go into this cycle and it literally feels like a starvation for them.
	So I think the starvation that's going to hit us from a meaning point of view is we are now frantically trying to search, just like other previous centuries, what is the truth?
	Because in the world of AI, in the world of fake media, in the world of mainstream media that is propaganda for big corporations, I think the big struggle that most people are having now is trying to get a sense of reality and trying to know who and what to trust.
	And ultimately, that in itself can create the worst forms of anxiety because you need to wake up and you need to feel certainty about something each day.
	So those that don't have, let's say, a good faith that they can rely on or something that they're doing that gives them meaning, there's no anchor point.
	So are you thinking then, Tao, that The fact that the media is lying to people all the time, the fact that the institutions are lying, is actually causing kind of a shockwave of a lack of faith in the institutions, which is causing people to lose their anchor to reality, and that's leading, in a way, to this crisis that sometimes leads to mass killings?
	I mean, am I wrong to link all those things together?
	You're absolutely right, and here's the vulnerability with it.
	They're not just lying.
	What they're doing, and people grasp for terms.
	Gaslighting is very interesting because...
	You cannot be gaslit if you're aware that you're being gaslit.
	During this pandemic, people kept referring to, let's say, the unvaccinated group as being gaslit.
	No, that's actually not the gaslit crowd.
	The gaslit crowd doesn't know that they're being lied to.
	Then what happens to them, because it hasn't really even happened in a big way yet, they keep changing the story.
	And so it's the search for a truth.
	And then as the person feels like they have some sense of understanding or certainty, they switch out for new facts or for a new story.
	And over time, that corrodes people's sense of certainty.
	And there are only certain things, like I mentioned in terms of faith, there are certain principles and ways of living and connections with human beings.
	If you don't have that, eventually what the exploit is, if you make somebody like that, then you can come in and you can exploit them.
	This is a form of what terrorist groups do when they recruit someone and they take people that are searching for a tribe, searching for meaning, They mess with them.
	I mean, these are also very involved in the Harvard experiments of MKUltra.
	They did this, for example, I think the most famous case of this was done to the Unabomber, where the experiment that was done on the Unabomber was to debate with a highly intelligent person and keep switching the rules so that you can't win the debate.
	You're basically trying to negotiate with a psychopath.
	It's so frustrating.
	Sounds like trying to reach Facebook's customer service department, actually.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Or any human being on the back of something.
	I recently had, you know, I've got two products out that I brought to market at this time.
	And so this is the first time I'm seeing how vulnerable we are, for example, to a digital currency, to cryptocurrencies and to a centralized exchange.
	Because I just got a deactivation notice from our payment processor because it's in the supplement category.
	And they're like, all right, well, you've got 30 days and then go find someone else.
	And so I was scrambling to get that done.
	But this time around, I didn't even try and reach their customer service because I know I'm just going to get a bot.
	I know that I'm not actually going to get some sort of manager or some person that I can talk to.
	And so what it also does, this frustration, this unwinnable sort of Hegelian dialect is, What it does is it gets you to give up.
	It's a form of learned helplessness.
	You're like, all right, I'm just going to move on.
	I'm not going to fight the system.
	Well, that's very wise on your part, I think, because the system has become insane.
	But I want to get back to something you said just a couple minutes ago, which sort of reminded me that society seems to be run on narratives.
	And people live out the narratives, the stories that they tell themselves and that they tell each other.
	And when those narratives seem true, in other words, when those narratives reflect the sensory reality that people experience from a first-person point of view, then I would call that stability or sanity.
	But when the narratives diverge from the experience, when you have a narrative like transgenderism, for example, that's a very powerful narrative being pushed, but it has nothing in common with the observable experiential reality That people actually see and live through.
	When those things diverge, then you have insanity.
	At least this is what I'm proposing in this definition.
	But isn't it true that the narratives that we have lived on in society, because all of us choose narratives at some point, or we embrace them, but so many of the more popular narratives are unraveling in a way that they have never unraveled before, such as banks failing, or learning that you can't trust the FDA, things like that.
	Okay, so, and I agree with you completely that this is a purposeful unraveling of all narratives.
	It's purposefully to get somebody to the point of chaos while big change is being made.
	But if you think about it, what is going on and what's gone on, not even just the pandemic, even before it, if you think about what was happening with violence across our nation and riots that were left to go out of control, complete cities burnt down, Defund the police at the same time while crime is going up and people need safety in their communities.
	All of the stuff that was going on, all of the wokeness that has been going on for a lot longer than the pandemic, it starts corroding this sense of certainty.
	But here's probably the most out there comment that I can make that at some point I hope to have the solid science that backs this up completely.
	But I believe that this bioweapon that we've been discussing, and I know I've been on the show and you've had some amazing guests unpack this bioweapon, I've become more and more certain in my own mind that the fundamental reason for the vaccine was as a tranquilizer.
	Really?
	Right.
	So we've talked about all kinds of mechanisms.
	We've talked about the death toll that can bring you, the Depop.
	It's all there, and all of that is completely valid.
	But there is a short-term goal of what this thing does.
	And what it does as a measurable output of this vaccine is it down-regulates monoamine neurotransmitters.
	You're talking about norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine.
	So what happens if you down-regulate norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine?
	And you'll eventually crash somebody into depression.
	But the stage before that...
	Would be what you're trying to do with somebody on a ward with Haldol.
	You're literally making somebody away.
	Yeah, zombified.
	Exactly, a zombie.
	I mean, I think you and I could probably say that we can see that happening to the world around us.
	So wait a second.
	When we ask questions, you and I, like, why aren't other people...
	Outraged at what's going on with their children being mutilated, for example.
	Part of the answer that you're proposing here is that, well, those people have been tranquilized, in effect, by this injection that's altering their brain chemistry to kind of chill them out while the craziest things happen all around them that would otherwise generate a lot more reaction.
	Right, and there's an intuitive process to this because when you're downregulating those neurotransmitters, But you also have the impact, and I know you've had great guests like Dr.
	Cottrell talking about different pathologies that the spike protein brings in.
	One of the things that everyone's aware of is this thing is a very high risk of clotting.
	And so what causes an increase of clotting in the body as a chemical?
	It's adrenaline.
	It's the sympathetic nervous system.
	And so there's your kill switch in terms of you convincing the body to become a zombie.
	Then if the person feels like they should fight back, if you want to muscle through this fight, you actually run the risk of having an aneurysm.
	This spike protein, if I didn't hate it as much as I do, and if I didn't think it was as sinister, I mean, it's a very, very impressive compound.
	This is like a compound that This isn't decades of work.
	This is hundreds of years of work that all come together with somebody really understanding how to make poison and how to combine certain poisons.
	So like a karari dart that brings down an animal.
	Well, if you could bring down the animal and also calm the animal down so that the meat doesn't get spoiled, and if you convince that animal To go passively so that you don't have to chase it around after you've shot it with an arrow.
	That's how venom works.
	And so if you look at what they've done over here is they've combined different toxins in a way that's a package deal that ultimately there's so many facets to it but part of it is the effect of it that it has on human behavior.
	When I trace back some of this for the audience that doesn't know me My stepping stone into this realm, into this sort of pandemic, was that people were asking me my professional opinion of whether this was a bioweapon.
	And as much as I'd studied things like anthrax and Ebola and smallpox and the way that sort of natural biologicals could be weaponized, I had a good foundational knowledge of things like Sauron and Tarbonne.
	But not enough where I could now get on a stage and talking about these chemicals.
	But there is so much research that came out of places like Fort Deuteron where they were just basically playing around with soldiers for decades, doing drug therapies on them.
	With these type of venoms and poisons to nudge behavior.
	Wait, wait.
	Hold on.
	I mean, this is really bombshell.
	So you're talking about neurological, biochemical, or neurochemical changes that translate into behavioral changes.
	And let me have a follow-up question for you.
	But let me give out your website, drtaubron.com.
	That's D-R-T-A-U-N. B-R-A-U-N dot com.
	This is the website.
	Hypothesis says here about COVID and envenomation.
	I just want to give people your site.
	And biochem engineering, yes, some excellent stuff.
	We can talk about that in a little bit.
	But Tao, what I want to ask you then is, if what you're saying is true, then it's the perfect plan.
	So they engineer this poison.
	I mean, first they engineer SARS-CoV-2 to create the panic for people to line up to get the poison, which is the tranquilizer.
	They chill out, you know, 80% of the population.
	And then they collapse the money supply.
	They mutilate your children.
	They, you know, destroy your culture.
	They tear down the statues.
	Like, any crazy thing they want to do, and you're just going to, I mean, the vast majority of the population will just stand there with like a drool piece coming out of the side of their mouth, you know, like a Like a heavily medicated patient in a mental center.
	That's essentially what you're talking about.
	You know, what's interesting, it should create the drool, but because they built it the way you gave me the perfect way to talk about this molecule, it's actually a drying up agent.
	So it actually should be creating, it should create copious amounts of mucus and other bodily secretions.
	And when it works, and when it fits the body nicely, it actually will dry up the body.
	It actually takes the water in the body and it creates almost a heavy form of deuterium.
	The chemistry of this, I mean, I know people have looked at, let's say, the cationic properties with the lipid nanoparticles in the vaccine.
	Even without the lipid nanoparticles, this thing for its size is so positively charged that it's like a giant magnet.
	And so you can think about all the profound changes on a nanoparticle level that that would bring a body that is so sensitive to physiological changes.
	I mean, this thing, you can imagine now, of course it could switch off taste and smell and depolarize ion-gated channels.
	Of course it could disseminate the bacteria in a body and just leave gram-negative antibacterial bacteria.
	I mean, that's what it does.
	You and I, I haven't had time to go and do it, but we were so ahead when we first had our first interview together where I laid out things like part of this, I compared it to a sped up, like a form of progeria, a non-congenital form of rapid aging.
	That's what the spike protein can do.
	We talked about the amyloidic stuff.
	Even before you got a chance to look at At some of the samples that you looked at.
	You and I unpacked a lot of this, sort of the way we're doing it now.
	And one of the things that this thing does is that because of what it is, and because it's an alkaloid, and because it's so positively charged, you're really just talking about fragments of metal.
	The more I understand this thing, the more I understand that the real power in this thing is it is...
	The size – the fact that it is so minute and the fact that it is so positively charged and the fact that it's a coil, it becomes a nanoparticle solenoid.
	And when you run a current through it, when you run a current through a solenoid, it becomes a magnet.
	So when this thing hits things where a current, when electricity will go through it, it can draw – It can draw particles to itself, which is why it can do clots, which is why it will cause stem cells to change.
	It's why it can get into...
	Let's talk a little bit about...
	Well, wait, but 5G then, because we're talking about electric potential then penetrating the skin, even going through the blood.
	5G signals can go, I don't know, five or six inches deep into the body, and longer wavelengths can penetrate, obviously, even more than that, but...
	We're talking about electric potential then, coursing through the blood while you have what you're describing as essentially a solenoid type of structure.
	I mean, you may have just nailed it.
	What if it's the combination of the spike protein plus 5G that causes the clotting?
	There we go.
	And I think that the 5G that we've experienced now, I think that the reason for 5G and the reason that it's staggered the way it is and that it's short-term frequency is it becomes a form of just like you have to wait for a riot and then you have to bring in a mobile unit, whether they're using sound or heat.
	They've now built substations in cities.
	Where if they're populous, if there was an uprising, they just switch it on.
	They just take it, they literally, I mean, the frequencies that have got it now, they know are safe enough for us to survive.
	But they know that they can turn those frequencies on and just fry us.
	It would be the equivalent of putting somebody in a microwave.
	I mean, those are now population control substations that are built into cities all over the place.
	They're military grade frequency transmitters.
	And so if you bomb the body with it, the level of oxidative stress, right?
	I mean, for people that aren't maybe as biological as us, what we're talking about is a bomb, a biological bomb that explodes our batteries of our body, which are called mitochondria.
	And then when the mitochondria explode, it's like a pipe bomb or a pressure cooker bomb because what is the mitochondria release that's so damaging to the body?
	Iron.
	Literally, you know, This is shrapnel.
	Mitochondria exploding is a nano-sized pressure cooker bomb like it was used in Boston Marathon.
	It's exploding iron and then you're putting iron into circuitry.
	And so free-floating iron is oxidative stress.
	It's reactive, it's ROS. It's oxygenated species.
	And so this is where the, you know, the grifting, my least favorite word, right?
	It's my least favorite and favorite word because when people say like, oh, here it comes, here's the big cell.
	Guys like you and I that have been interested in supplements, which are no longer called supplements, they're now essentials.
	This is the survivability pack.
	This is how people need to survive.
	If this is happening if somebody is living in a city where they're right next to a 5G tower if they are not getting enough antioxidants in their body they will have cancer Regardless of whether it's from the spike protein or any other thing or pesticides or food that they're eating,
	that 5G will cause enough reactive oxygen species in their body that if they burn through the antioxidants like glutathione, anaconic, resveratrol, vitamin C, if they burn through those, even copper in itself is an antioxidant.
	If they burn through that, they're done.
	Yeah, peroxynitrites is one of the species that's actually created in your blood upon exposure to 5G. And you're right.
	And the nutritional need...
	To handle free radicals is now higher than it ever was in the history of human civilization because of all this electromagnetic interference.
	And if you fail to do that, if you fail to fight these circulating free radicals, you're going to have rapid aging of everything, your brain, your organs, your skin.
	By the way, that maybe I haven't seen them in 5 or 10 years, and I look at them now, I'm like, oh my God, they're 25 years older now.
	And I'm like, what happened?
	I mean, in my mind, I don't say it to their face, but in my mind, I'm like, what happened?
	The first biblical reference we have of that is often mistranslated.
	When Moses comes back from receiving the Ten Commandments, they say he's grown horns.
	The mistranslation of that is whiteness.
	Moses went white from the stress of trying to figure out how he's going to save these people from what was going on in Egypt, and then basically having to create the biological and chemical components.
	And Moses was the first person, in my opinion.
	This is where I always get into trouble, too, because...
	People that are very religious, I read comments often and they go crazy with my reinterpretations of the Bible.
	They get very upset with me.
	Dangerous territory there, Tom.
	It's not a form of blasphemy.
	It's actually a wonderful explanation of miracles.
	Miracles are fascinating for me because miracles, when you're a child, miracles don't have a way that you can replicate the miracle.
	But as an adult, if you can replicate a miracle, if you can learn from it, so for example, I never know what sort of conversation that you want to steer this in, but I love being philosophical with you because… I know that you're one of the few people I can bounce ideas off and share my thoughts.
	But I want to tell you that, probably like you, because I've watched a lot of your interviews and I like the way that you think, probably like you, there's certain things where something will go through your mind and will bother you until you can figure out, you know, sort of like, what are they trying to do, right?
	Whatever it is.
	You'll get an aha moment.
	It might be in the car or the shower or whatever it is, and suddenly something will click into place.
	So I had, when I was working on Copper Reads, I had an aha moment that was quite profound for me in a spiritual way.
	We always talk about Moses parting the sea and that he used a staff and that the oceans opened up and then they got to cross the ocean.
	But one night I'm thinking about this and I'm like, well, the translation of it is not necessarily a staff.
	It's a rod.
	And then I was thinking, well, how do you part the ocean with a rod?
	And I was like, what if the rod was a cathode and an anode and the parting of the ocean is desalinization?
	What if Moses figured out that the thing they needed the most to get through the ocean around it to buy time was potable water?
	Then they would have to be able to separate water that they can't drink And they'd have to separate the salt out of it and make distilled water.
	And I was like, that makes sense in terms of a Bible story that says he stuck a rod...
	Into water and he split the sea.
	Well, what did he split it into?
	H2O and salt.
	Well, but okay, I mean, that's fascinating, but I thought they were fleeing the Roman army and then the seas collapsed back on the Roman army and drowned those people.
	It's actually the Egyptians, but the same thing would happen in terms of a translation.
	I think that the idea of it is not necessarily that the ocean collapsed on it.
	But that they couldn't do the same thing.
	I think that there's no way of knowing, so that's the best part about theorizing like this.
	But the usefulness for me is that ultimately, I think when you interpret stuff like this, it gives you a way of finding solutions, ancient solutions, ancient way of thinking.
	So a fascinating part for me, I'll just take another tangent to the Moses story, And I know that this will give me a segue into asking you questions about Bridian University.
	So I think that a lot of people turn to you and I for solutions about this chaotic world and how do we fix this.
	So one of the things is education.
	And the other major aspect of it is that Moses was pretty smart in that he came down with a few rules, or God, if somebody's a religious person, a few rules, a few ethical standpoints of a value system, and then over time we built that and that becomes a democracy and that becomes a constitution and that becomes our great republic.
	But if we don't go back and we don't look at the principles, and if we don't remind ourselves of the principles, Then we get into a horrible mess because it becomes like trying to understand tax laws when the book is this big.
	What is the essence of the value system?
	And part of it is then education should ultimately support a value system.
	And I think that part of what you're doing, and I really want to thank you for doing, Brighton University, is that where we are getting beaten is that they've perverted the education system To push out new values, right?
	And so there needs to be competition for that.
	I mean, ultimately, in a world where fewer people are going to take part in Sunday school, well, they've got to get their values from somewhere.
	They've got to get education that has meaning behind it rather than education for the sake of consumerism.
	Well, you're exactly right.
	And I think one of the key values that's being pushed out there now is blind obedience to false authority.
	So in the educational system, that's what they teach children, is you must obey.
	You simply must obey because the authorities care for you and they're going to take care of you.
	And how dare you think for yourself?
	So if you think for yourself you're an outsider and then you're fringe and then you're not valued by the rest of society, and that's a perversion of the value upon which America was founded.
	Which is the individual liberty that is more important than the wishes of a mob.
	Again, it's not a democracy, as you know.
	It's a constitutional republic.
	We have certain constitutional rights that belong to each individual.
	And no mob can overtake them.
	So, yeah, what we're trying to do with Brighton University, thanks for mentioning that, is just have educational programs that people can watch for free.
	I mean, registration is required, but then you can watch it for free.
	You can learn some really fascinating things.
	And it's streaming 24-7 at brightu.com.
	It's spelled just like it sounds, but the letter U, brightu.com.
	And we've connected with a lot of filmmakers on this.
	We have a schedule that's going out, I think, six months on that.
	But what about you, Tao?
	Do you have something that we can run on Bright U? I will absolutely be flooding you with ideas.
	And one of the things that I'd say, not only myself, but if there's other content makers, I think that when people have turned to me now and said, well, how do you think you're going to get through this?
	And what does the future look like for you?
	First of all, I've got a young child.
	He's 19 months old, and I've got another one on the way.
	That changes for any person who's a parent.
	We're in this fight.
	At least I can say for myself, I'm in this fight for my children and for other people's children at this stage.
	I've had a good run.
	I'm 50 years old.
	I've had fun.
	I'd like another 50 years.
	Whatever it is, it would be great.
	But ultimately, I have a responsibility of trying to create a better world for my children.
	And so when it comes to content, I think that part of what I want to say is that not everybody is going to get the experience to go and...
	And go and spend years at a university somewhere and come out with, one, a way of thinking, because for me that's what a doctorate was, teaching a way of thinking, but small snippets of content where the end goal is What did I learn and how do I apply that?
	I think that we're looking for a world now where I think that a lot of people have been robbed with the experience, especially city folks, of not knowing how to do stuff.
	I was fortunate that I had a dad that would call me over and he would want to show me how something works.
	And I'm the same now with my own little son.
	Recently, he threw something down the stairs.
	And I didn't just say to him, oh, too bad.
	You know, now you can't get it.
	I went and I got a coat hanger and I opened up the coat hanger in front of him and I attached a piece of string to it.
	And I was teaching him that if something falls somewhere, that you don't have to stand there screaming to try and get it back, that there's a way of fishing for it.
	The idea of learning to problem solve and the idea to sort of the MacGyver stuff.
	I think that we're living through a time now of homesteading, of how to do stuff yourself, how to build your own remedies.
	For example, this is a good reminder for me of utmost importance now, and I know Dr.
	Brian Artis has been talking about this as well.
	So the other really, really dangerous problem with the spike protein is Which is now ubiquitous.
	We just can't escape this thing.
	People's bodies are making it.
	Vaccines are going to carry on.
	Yeah, people are walking spike protein factories at this point.
	Right.
	So the other thing that they're producing and the other trigger, you don't need much of it.
	These are molecular switches.
	The other trigger is it triggers a flourishing and overabundance of lectin in the body.
	And people are like, I've never heard of lectin.
	What is lectin?
	So lectin sits in our bodies on cell membranes and really the best way I can describe lectin is it's like a little mini communication center.
	It is a transmitter and a receiver of information of molecules that are floating by.
	The problem is that when you have too much lectin, it's sort of like having a rookie in a command center That's watching, you know, screens for security reasons, and they don't really know what they're looking for.
	So like a guy walks by, and they're on the radio, guy walking by, and you're like, so?
	And then you look on the CCTV screen, and you're like, well, that's Mike.
	He's walking into the studio.
	Why are you telling us this, right?
	It takes a while for a learning cycle to eventually spot things that are worth reporting.
	So when you have an overabundance of lectin, What happens is it's an overabundance of reporting and that can actually trigger the body to not report anything or it can overreact.
	And the best way to stop that in terms of flourishing of lectin is with the substance pectin, which is, you know, when people are like, well, what's that?
	Underneath most skin of fruit, on an orange, you'll see it very clearly.
	The fibrous white stuff, that's pectin.
	People can buy pectin as a supplement or they can make sure that they're not just throwing that away.
	I recently told somebody about pectin and they were like, you know...
	I basically scrub that stuff off.
	I love a perfect orange.
	You're getting rid of all the good stuff.
	And so one of the key things for people to do right now is to make sure that they're getting those kind of things, once again, either as a supplement form or from good food.
	I'm so glad you mentioned that because I've actually talked about this in the past about eating the inside lining of the orange peel, why that's good for you, or even juicing lemons, juicing the peel of lemons.
	Pomegranates, for example.
	Everybody just wants the pomegranate seeds, which, yeah, they're juicy, delicious desserts.
	But surrounding the seeds is the potent stuff that's anti-cancer.
	The whitish, yellowish stuff that's very, very bitter.
	And it's those bitter molecules that are actually doing the job for you.
	If you have prostate cancer, you want to eat the rest of the pomegranate.
	Maybe not the outside peel of it, but, you know...
	Whole foods actually have the answers for us in so many ways, but you have to know what works.
	Right.
	And you have to know how important it is.
	And also, I think people get hung up on often because they try, especially if somebody is a newcomer to supplements, they try and compare it to medicines where they get hung up on dose.
	They do.
	They really do.
	It's like, just take the daily dose and do it regularly.
	It's all about consistency with this stuff.
	And it's also about getting to know your own body.
	And learning, your body is going to signal to you.
	If somebody is feeling fatigue, one of the first things that can often be wrong is they need iron.
	They're slightly anemic, so they've got a little bit of fatigue.
	That's the time they can go back to their medicine cabinet or their supplement cabinet and get out their iron supplement.
	You learn.
	Your body will often let you know.
	Now, an interesting thing about pectin and why I'm pushing it so much at the moment is that I'm extremely concerned About the uptick in strokes, in aneurysms, in ischemic attacks, in parts of the body where basically lectins are used.
	When somebody goes out and has a blood test and they're told they're A or B or ABO, they are using lectins because lectin causes something called agglutination.
	Lectin causes microclots.
	And you've covered the big stuff on the big thrombotic events and the weird castings that this thing can grow in the body, which I'm still trying to work out.
	I think it's a combination of venom organoid cells, but I also think that there's something on the spike protein that's used in the vaccine called SV40, simian virus, which is in the poliovirus.
	And people call that a promoter.
	I don't like it.
	It sounds like somebody who promotes like a new product or a club.
	The actual word for things like SV40 is they are called cell penetrating peptides.
	And probably the most famous cell penetrating peptide are some of the proteins that are in sperm that are basically able to get through cell membrane and then get their RNA or DNA to replicate inside another cell.
	And that's why SV40 is in there as mRNA technology to basically penetrate into a cell and then make more of itself.
	So your term of spike protein factory is correct.
	But when it comes to these microclots that have the ability to switch off certain parts of our body or parts of our brain, One of the ways that you can counteract that is by taking care of making sure that you have enough pectin in your body to deal with those lectins.
	I think that that's going to be a crucial part.
	And then I think there's other things in terms of like, one of the horrible side effects of this pandemic is making people inactive, either through quarantining, fear, A lot of elderly haven't left their house for three years.
	That's a way to cause strokes.
	That's a way to cause heart attacks.
	Even getting up to go to the supermarket is enough to keep people alive.
	And when you take that away from them and they're getting a delivery instead, eventually their bodies will just shut off through inactivity.
	And then there's people like myself who I'm not in good shape anymore simply because of the workload.
	I think rather than talk about myself, which can often sound like, woe is me, get out the violin… I rather just want to turn it into a compliment and being grateful for people like you and everybody else.
	I think people are often very complimentary about people that they will think that have taken up the good fight, or they'll call you a freedom warrior, or they'll say, you know, Mike's a patriot.
	But we all know that true patriots come back with battle scars.
	We all know that somebody who goes to fight a war, whether it's on our domestic soil, It wears you down, right?
	And so lately what I've been doing is I want to make sure that the general public absolutely knows the sacrifice You're exactly right.
	My secret weapon has always been nutrition.
	So because of the superfoods that we manufacture and sell, and I take myself, and I always have my smoothie here every day, and if it wasn't for these things, there's no way I could keep doing what I'm doing.
	If I were living on junk food, forget it.
	And I think that's true for a lot of people in this space.
	You look at a lot of the freedom warriors, so to speak, the truth-tellers, and they understand so-called supplements, the need for supplements, the need for superfoods.
	But, you know, yeah, I'm taking astaxanthin.
	I'm taking natokinase.
	You know, of course, the common stuff like vitamin Cs and D. But vitamin E, you know, your cell membranes have to fight against free radicals.
	You need fat-soluble antioxidants, which is vitamin E with tocopherols.
	And, you know, it sounds like such a simple thing.
	But if you overlook it, you can be in real trouble, especially if you then go out and eat, let's say, a lot of fried foods at a restaurant, a bunch of french fries or fried tostadas or whatever.
	Now you're adding fat-soluble free radical damage on top of all the other forms of damage.
	But one more thing, Tao.
	A benefit of eating more fruit, and in our food science lab, we've seen this again and again, that fruit fiber, which can include pectins, but insoluble fruit fiber is separate from pectins, but fruit fiber,
	it mops up almost every dietary toxin, including dioxins, including heavy metals, including pesticides, and a lot of people don't know this, but if you take a look at a strawberry, The strawberry, all the seeds are on the outside.
	And since the seeds are on the outside, every seed has to have a lifeline to the center of the strawberry.
	That is a piece of fiber that is so strong That it will not be digested by nitric acid.
	I know this because strawberry fibers clog up our nebulizers in the mass spec instruments even after they go through nitric acid.
	So if you eat one strawberry, you have like 200 little mops that are mopping up toxins in your system and pushing it out through bowel movements.
	And people forget about that.
	Sometimes the answers are simple.
	One of the best, you're 100% correct, and one of the best fibers that I learned about during the pandemic right at the beginning, because a buddy of mine said, you know, this thing, what I'm hearing about it is it's affecting people's breathing.
	And he said, I was a bad asthmatic, and what helped me is quercetin.
	And quercetin is a fiber.
	Quercetin comes from the lotus flower.
	And it's incredible to think about That part of the misinformation, part of the tools that are used against us is they want you to sort of look at the food pyramid and they'll tell you, oh, eat more fruits and veggies.
	But it's not necessarily quantity.
	It's quality and it's also what do you want out of it, right?
	For example, like I found that I'm much healthier without a lot of fruits and veggies.
	I did an experiment on myself by mistake.
	I became vegan.
	For many years and it almost killed me because I'm actually built to be my own biology and I can't speak for others because everyone's different.
	I'm pretty much an obligate carnivore.
	I eat and sleep and live like a lion and so I get super tired during the day but at 3am I'm plowing through work just like a lion would be on the hunt.
	But when it comes midday or it comes like a hot day, a lion can stand next to a gazelle somewhere, a buck, and it's not even going to go and chase it because it's just too hot out and its metabolic energy is off during those circadian rhythms.
	I think the key here and another strategy for living through this and thriving in the chaos that they're creating for us Part of the chaos is really interesting.
	They're creating chaos through order, not the other way around.
	Let me repeat that.
	Normally, you can create chaos by creating disorder.
	They're creating chaos through order.
	They're stripping away diversity.
	Even though they say they're diversity training, they're homogenizing everything.
	SARS-CoV-2 as a spike protein eliminates gut biome diversity and leaves you with less, not more.
	The training in organizations leaves people with less differences.
	The agendas that they're pushing out, lockstep, is all about templating and about creating order.
	So one of the things that I want to remind people It is very important to not compare yourself to anyone else because you're completely an individual and everybody needs to find their own systems that work for them and build systems around that.
	So for example, the traditional food pyramid for me, it was really bad and created a lot of fatigue in my life.
	I'm much better off with lean proteins than I am with any form of carbohydrates.
	Literally cause a symptom that's very similar to COVID. It's a form of insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity.
	There's certain people that their natural gut biome and the way that their biology works is when they get a sugar dump, it puts them to sleep.
	So I went off, I'll tell you one last sort of funny story.
	What is your ancestry though, by the way?
	I'm curious.
	I would say that way back before things had names, I think I'm pretty much Neanderthal.
	Further than that, I've got...
	Eastern European in me, in terms of Czechoslovakia, Austria, German, you know, places that would have been around the Neanderthal areas.
	I consider myself a person of the forbidden fruit, the original sort of biblical term.
	And an interesting thing, seeming I gave, seeming I know some of the people already be annoyed with some of my biblical references, I looked at the word Adam and Eve, for example, and I found it pretty interesting that the word Adam, It means under.
	The Aramaic and the Hebrew, when you say Adama, you're saying under the ground.
	And then the word Eve comes from a root word to mean to live or breathe.
	So I don't think Adam and Eve, in our sense of Adam and Eve being people, I look at it as Adam and Eve was a descriptor of cave people, people that lived under the ground, which would ultimately be defining Neanderthals.
	And here's a crazy part about the story of how I even got into some of the biological differences in Denisovans, Neanderthals, and what we call modern-day humans, is that I only started studying it during the pandemic because this bioweapon is built to eliminate the original religious people.
	It's a religious war that eliminates people of God.
	Well, that's fascinating.
	Okay, so many questions, but first of all, let me ask you a really kind of out-of-the-way question on that.
	Is it possible that some of the technology for this bioweapon came from extraterrestrial sources?
	Out of my realm of knowledge, but here's what the pandemic has done for me.
	I think that I was a stuck person And that even though I thought I had an open mind, I was still rigid around stuff that other people were comfortable knowing about or talking about.
	And I would have said, well, that's not true.
	Now, if somebody wants to challenge somebody and say there's no such thing as viruses, Or if I was talking about space earlier and there's people that say, well, we never went to space.
	I actually am in a position right now where I can find certainty that I leave room for all possibility because we just don't know.
	And so if somebody is comfortable saying, oh, this is actually extraterrestrial stuff, You know, there's a part to me that goes, well, that's fascinating.
	Tell me more.
	I want to learn about that.
	That sounds interesting.
	And then there's also parts to it that I can chew on a little bit in my own rational mind in terms of, you know, a comfort level.
	I'll tell you an interesting thing that is extraterrestrial.
	For example, the spike protein of this bioweapon knocks out vitamin B3, niacin.
	It knocks it out of your cells because it's a magnet, right?
	Niacin in the human body is a form of carbon.
	The closest match would be what people could talk about graphene oxide.
	Niacin is like graphene oxide.
	It's a carbon that's magnetic.
	And so when you bring this other magnet near it, you can knock out niacin out of the human body.
	So a crazy thing about the extraterrestrial...
	Information on niacin is that there's theory out there that says that all vitamin B3, all niacin on this planet, arrived here because a meteorite hit Earth at some stage.
	And without that meteorite that brought that rock, this planet would not have one of the fundamentals that allows for the primordial soup of life to become supercharged We're good to go.
	Okay, hold on.
	Let me bring up the molecule.
	I'm pretty sure that niacin is simply synthesized by a lot of plants.
	Yeah, I mean, here it is.
	It's nitrogen and hydrogen and oxygen with some double bonds here.
	But it's got a weird carbon...
	A carbon texture that has a coating on it, sort of like it allows things to either repel from it or to anchor down on it.
	It's an organo something.
	I can't see the polarity of it from this screen.
	I don't know about the charges on this, just from looking at this.
	There's all the carbon bonds, but in terms of elements, there's nothing crazy exotic in it.
	But...
	To the bigger question here, what I'm saying is, I completely agree with you.
	I'm willing to hear out someone's explanation on lots of things and then consider it.
	Because the world that I am looking at now is so much more bizarre than what I thought it was a few years ago.
	And, you know, The death cult that now rages on our planet is a very real thing.
	That's obvious.
	So I'm more open-minded than before.
	When people talk about sort of the extraterrestrial side of this or when we think about the threat of AI or transhumanism, I want to tell people that, one, we're already in the age of transhumanism in the fact that we literally have to be very conscious to separate ourselves out from technology and have...
	I mean, we'll feel almost a sense of...
	Of anxiety, a sense of something's missing now.
	The minute you could be walking somewhere and if you realize you forgot your phone, this object that now lives with you, this machine.
	We're so integrated now.
	We're so integrated into the technology that it's more startling to not have it And to have it, right?
	Where it used to be, oh, I need to remember to take my phone with me or, you know, any form of technology.
	It's similar to people that live next to train tracks.
	And then if the train stops doing that route, they start waking up.
	At the time where the train used to go by, right?
	You can get so integrated.
	You can become so normalized through these processes.
	And the other version of this that is very sinister and quite painful for me to think about, I recently was watching on what people will call Wokeflix, Netflix.
	I was watching the series Chimp Empire.
	And I'm really – there's part to me that I think that – If I had more time, I think I would be really depressed, much more depressed in terms of the pain that this pandemic has brought me.
	If I had the time to think about that for the last three years, humanity has been stripped of some of the best things of what it is to be human, holding somebody's hand while they're dying.
	Caring about animals.
	During the pandemic, people went and got rescued pets because they knew they were going to be at home.
	But you don't hear the stories of all those pets that were brought back, that the shelter's filled up again.
	You don't hear about the fact that people were told they couldn't go to the beach and people stopped hiking.
	We're living in such a weird time right now where I think that people are so stressed out and so zombified that there seems to be less and less interest in conservation.
	I mean, species are getting wiped out every day.
	You can go – I can take myself – go out with the pups and go out with my wife and Jasper now.
	We can go on a hike somewhere.
	You don't even see any animals anymore.
	I mean we are getting so stripped down of these things that are such beautiful parts of our planet that that is a form of transhumanism.
	Yeah, but – well, I agree with you and I'm seeing that too.
	The animals, from when I was a kid, we had way more birds and animals and locusts and frogs and everything compared to what I see now, and I actually live in a very pristine place compared to most.
	But, I mean, from the extraterrestrial point of view, wouldn't this be the perfect plan for a non-human race to say, hey...
	Look at this beautiful water planet, Earth.
	Everything's right.
	It's the right distance from the sun, all this.
	It's got liquid water, for God's sake, right?
	Which is pretty rare in the cosmos.
	And wouldn't an extraterrestrial race say, hey, let's just annihilate the humans, save this planet from humanity, and then we can occupy it.
	And guess what?
	Just download this spike protein to Fauci's laptop.
	And it's like...
	The rest is just cause and effect.
	I mean, it's certainly a great plot.
	I'm going to say two things around it that are quite egotistical from my standpoint, one of which is that I think about it that the pain and suffering that I've seen in my lifetime, things like living through apartheid and seeing what true racism really looks like.
	I mean, I tell people stories they can't believe.
	That I lived in a modern era, in a modern developed country with extreme amounts of wealth.
	And just literally a few decades ago, I was a kid of the 70s and the 80s got very volatile.
	But some of my memories around that time period really shaped me as an adult.
	Like for example, in South Africa growing up, If a person of color was working on your property and you wanted to give them lemonade or an iced tea or something, you wouldn't give them that drink out of a glass that you would drink from.
	You would give them a mug.
	You would give them a metallic mug like you would give a soldier on his backpack.
	If you wanted to give them food, a sandwich, you would give it like in a dog's bowl.
	I've seen such depravity on this planet that shaped me.
	You know, I worked in rural clinics in Africa.
	At 15 years old, taken out of a wealthy area, a privileged environment, I went to go work in rural clinics.
	One of the first things I did, I would never do it again.
	In fact, I think it might have even been on your interview when I said I'd do it in a heartbeat.
	I'd never do it now that I know what I knew.
	I vaccinated babies.
	But the real story for me, one of the moments that I took from that rural clinic, is that at 15 years old, a guy sat down at the table where the med students were working and I was this Doogie Howser kind of guy that wanted to be a medical doctor.
	And I'm sitting there at this clinic and the guy is explaining to them that he hasn't, you know, he hasn't defecated in a week.
	And I'm thinking, well, this is easy.
	I've worked in the pharmacy in the clinic before.
	I know we've got stool softener and stuff for constipation.
	And then one of the medical students who knows how poor this community is, they asked this very old guy.
	And I'm talking about like, this guy was probably like 85, 90 years old.
	They said, when last did you eat?
	And he hadn't eaten in a week or even longer.
	And the reason that he was there was to get a medical diagnosis so that the pharmacy could then give him baby formula.
	Then it clicked in my head.
	I'd never wondered before why senior citizens were lining up at our pharmacy and leaving with baby formula.
	I thought, you know, grandmother's coming to get baby formula for a baby.
	I've seen starvation.
	You know, when you hear somebody say they're starving in America, When you know that somebody's begging for a Big Mac, you know, a couple of dollars worth, if you haven't been to places like Africa and seen starving children with their exploding kwashiachal bellies and their spindly little arms and legs and they've got days to live, then you hear someone complain that they don't have food.
	So the depravity that I'm seeing on this planet, I've got to tell you that I've got a different theory on extraterrestrials.
	If anything, we're the garbage they threw out.
	We're literally a planet.
	We could have been a planet of awful creatures.
	That we could have been like Australia started off as a penal colony and is now back to being a penal colony.
	I mean, I don't think people realize that, that everything in life is just a circle.
	Australia now is one of the world's biggest prisons.
	And so it started out of that and now that's what it is again.
	I think, if anything, the human beings have the capacity to be the most loving creatures, but we also have the capacity to be so psychopathic that potentially we started out as a colony I dropped off here of human beings that were ruining it somewhere else.
	Think about people that litter.
	You see people that smoke, for example.
	This is something I noticed also when I was much younger.
	People that are prepared to inflict their body with pollutants often are the same people that will just throw down that cigarette.
	Think about how depraved you have to be to ruin the environment that you live on, that you thrive on, that you couldn't care about.
	Yeah, but wait, but I mean, every time I hear somebody speak from the Biden administration, I do think, yeah, they could have been rejected from another planet.
	And, you know, the luggage thieves, the energy department lady who thinks that the whole military should run on batteries.
	And it's like, these are dumber than animals on most planets.
	They're probably like swamp rats on Venus that are smarter than Biden administration officials.
	I'm not even joking.
	I'm not joking either.
	I think that this brings me to the other point I was making from the sort of egotistical point of view.
	On that website that you showed earlier, I decided today to put a link to my wife's campaign because my wife and I have a lawsuit that we basically – we try to sue.
	The case just got dismissed and we have to refile in another jurisdiction.
	But after 13 years working for this massive dance organization, she got fired.
	She had a medical exemption.
	She was breastfeeding at the time.
	And after 13 years, when this vaccine first came out and she wasn't willing to take it, they said, well, you know what?
	You can have three months with unpaid leave and no benefits.
	And then they said, or there's the door.
	And I was listening in from the other room, and I don't think the HR person knew that I teach workplace violence, and I teach ADA, and I teach anti-harassment.
	And I said, look, you've just crossed the line over here.
	First of all, you can't be quoting what the CDC says when somebody has a medical exemption.
	You don't get to play doctor.
	And I also said the other thing is that...
	You are telling her that if she goes and violates her own medical exemption, then there'll be work for her.
	And I said, well, there's a name for that.
	It's called coercion.
	And so anyway, they fired her for harassing that HR person.
	They said that was harassment.
	She said that she wasn't going to take the thing.
	But here's the thing about it, Mike.
	The weird thing that I found through that campaign and through our lawsuit is that...
	I don't have time to think about extraterrestrials that may or may not be retaking the planet or interested in our water.
	This might be a plot from another planet.
	I'm more astounded as somebody that trained as a psychologist.
	What is it about people that walk amongst us that in a heartbeat could just become so callous?
	Half of our wedding were these people that she was colleagues with.
	You know how people talk about a big organization and say, like, we're family?
	Right?
	In a heartbeat, they said to a woman who was breastfeeding that was still on maternity leave, there's the door.
	We don't care about you.
	If you don't sign up like the rest of us, if you don't stick this poison in our arm, you're dead to us.
	We don't care what happens to you.
	No.
	If they came down tomorrow, like in Independence Day...
	You're talking to a guy that wanted to make a point as we circle around to...
	No, I just threw that out as a what-if question.
	Yeah, it's a great question.
	Yeah, I mean, we need to consider all possibilities, but you're right.
	The real aliens live inside people.
	Which is actually Aliens 2 with Sigourney Weaver.
	Yeah.
	So they've done that movie, and it turned out bad for the humans.
	I'll just put it that way.
	Yeah, and parasites.
	I mean, we like to scale things up to make it dramatic, but one thing that people don't realize is that we are ultimately controlled by a bacteria and our parasites.
	And so, for example, there are certain viruses and certain parasites that That will absolutely change behavior.
	You can make mice attracted to a cat, sexually attracted to a cat.
	And that can happen in reverse, where you can make a cat through parasites, you can make it lazy that it doesn't chase mice anymore.
	You can nudge animals, and this is a form of bio-warfare, of learning how to use these molecules in a way that you can nudge somebody.
	You can make somebody extremely aggressive.
	Now, here's something that we barely touched on, but is a very interesting and a hot topic at the moment, is transgender extremism.
	Now, there is a direct relationship Between increased testosterone in both genders as it relates to violence.
	So these people that are pushing hormone therapy that changes estrogen and testosterone are playing.
	They're literally playing with fire because you have a high percentage, especially in males, that if the testosterone goes up, you're going to create the ultimate form of toxic masculinity.
	You're going to create somebody who's violent.
	All forms of testosterone in the human body lead to higher aggression and higher violence.
	That's not a coincidence that we're seeing it.
	No, I agree with you.
	I think when they take a biological woman and they pump her up with testosterone because she wants to be a man, which I think is the case with the Nashville shooter, you know, I mean, think about it, Tal.
	Like, you and I have lived our lives, obviously, as men, and we have learned how to deal with what testosterone feels like And how to not just act out on aggression all the time.
	I mean, men play sports and they have other ways to blow off steam and so on.
	But a woman who's introduced to that influence for the first time might think, oh my God, I'm going crazy, right?
	Because it's like you're feeling all this testosterone affecting you and you don't know what to do with it because you've never had it before.
	That would be almost alien to a woman, it seems.
	Absolutely.
	And to both, I mean, all genders and everything in between.
	I mean, people know that there's a link to psychotropic medicines as it relates to mass killings.
	The thing I always tell people is that the reason that a lot of those people are on meds is they had problems in the first place, and that's why they were on meds.
	It's not necessarily that the meds, although that the meds can trigger suicide and homicide.
	It's not necessarily the case that it was the first time that they had a violent predisposition.
	Of course, it can make it worse, and I won't go into details here, but the energy cycles of it is that once you're putting chemicals in your body that create neuro-excitability, you can energize problem solving.
	So just like a stimulant will help somebody to complete a task, you have to ask yourself, what is the task?
	So in Adam Lanz's case, for example, who killed kids at Sandy's Hook, that's a task of, I'm going to go and complete this job of killing children.
	You don't want that person completing that task.
	So that's where medication like that becomes very dangerous to ask, what is this person going to do with this higher performance that this drug is going to give them?
	A clinically depressed person, the most dangerous gap for them...
	Is that as their serotonin levels start increasing, they run the risk of suicide because they have the energy to go through with it, whereas when they're clinically depressed, they can't even brush their teeth, never mind hang themselves.
	And so the neuro-excitability issue, but then people think that medicines that affect your neuro-excitability can be dangerous.
	Hormones are far more powerful at shaping behavior.
	For example, one of the extreme forms of hormone changes is during war.
	If soldiers are in war and it starts creating this survivability, adrenaline is pumping.
	they've got much less sleep cycles.
	So they're not, people don't know that you actually clear neurotoxins.
	The only time you're clearing neurotoxins is during sleep.
	And in fact, every time you blink, like you just blinked, you're clearing a neurotoxin, which is why neurotoxins are so problematic with gamers.
	Because they stop blinking.
	There's less frequent blinking in high level video gamers.
	And they're actually accumulating toxins.
	And then they get insomnia, which leads to even more toxins.
	The best person on this subject is actually Lieutenant Colonel Grossman.
	It introduced me to the topic of circadian rhythms and how important it is if somebody has PTSD to get blackout curtains and make sure that they're on top of the insomnia because ultimately the chemicals that have gone through their body from a big adrenaline dump can really lead to some high levels of toxicity.
	And we saw this during the pandemic that one of the most powerful hormones in the body that's needed for the immune system is vitamin D. So when you crash vitamin D, you also change not only the immune system, but you change human behavior.
	If you crash someone's vitamin D, you can cause depression because vitamin D is related to hibernation cycles.
	And so when you crash vitamin D, it is a form of zombification because you're telling that person to go to sleep for a couple of months in a cave.
	So when you wake that person up, it's like poking the bear.
	You don't want to wake up a hibernating bear.
	Well, Tao, we've covered a lot of fascinating subjects here.
	I mean aliens and zombies and hormones and who knows what else and mass killers.
	It is a bizarre world that I always enjoy.
	Speaking with you to just explore the reality around us and try to understand, try to model what we think is happening with people, and I think you bring a lot of clarity.
	But we are just about out of time for today, so give us your final thoughts, your wrap-up, your takeaway from this today.
	Okay, so right at the beginning of this, the very last thing I did for a big law enforcement community was a training for a group called Alert, and they are the national standard...
	In active attacker type training.
	And what I did during that presentation is I actually encouraged at the beginning of this pandemic, I encouraged us to be human.
	But I often ask myself, was that the right message?
	Because that can often seem like I was encouraging people to be too tolerant, to be too kind.
	To be human also means don't be tolerant.
	I want to encourage people that there is a space right now Where there's an absolute need for righteous indignation.
	And that doesn't have to be violent, but put your foot down to a lot of things that are occurring in your world and just simply say no.
	So my final thought is we can get through this.
	We have to be kind.
	We have to be kind to the world.
	But we also have to learn more and more during this time.
	We've reached thresholds.
	We have to let these people know that we've reached thresholds.
	And we need to use one of the shortest words in the English language, which is the word no.
	Well said, well said.
	I'm really glad you're saying that because unlimited tolerance of everything is insanity.
	If you tolerate everything, you will be destroyed and your society will be destroyed as well.
	You know, like, why would you want to tolerate, you know, pedophilia and child mutilations?
	But that's what's called for.
	So, look, this has been fascinating.
	Let me give out your website one more time.
	DrTauBron.com, D-R-T-A-U-B-R-A-U-N.com.
	And check out the, we didn't even get a chance to talk about copperine and anicardio biochem engineering.
	All of these available at drtaubron.com.
	And Tao, I mean, this has been fascinating.
	We'll have to have you back.
	We'll continue the discussion.
	And I'm sure we won't run out of interesting things to talk about, given what's happening.
	I want to say what a lot of audience members say about you, but may not get the opportunity of talking to you directly unless they see you somewhere.
	Mike, we love you.
	Well, thank you.
	Look, I appreciate that.
	I'm just trying to be part of the team humanity solution here as well, that's all.
	I mean, the world is going crazy around us all.
	Things are falling apart around us, and people's psychology is falling apart, people's mental health is falling apart, and we just want to not be steamrolled by this destruction.
	You, sir, are one of the finest examples of what it is to be human.
	So thank you.
	Well, thank you.
	That means a lot.
	I appreciate that.
	Okay, the new nickname coming up, instead of Health Ranger, Human Ranger.
	How about that?
	100% human!
	0% additives.
	How about that?
	Okay.
	100% organic human.
	Even better.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Exactly.
	Yeah, duty-free, pesticide-free, whatever, spike protein-free.
	Okay, it's been a lot of fun, Tao, and we'll talk again, and thank you for taking the time to join me today.
	Thank you, Mike.
	All right.
	Thank you.
	And for those of you watching, we appreciate you.
	I hope you learned some interesting things, and I hope your mind got a little bit expanded today.
	If not, just watch this again, and you might have missed some stuff.
	We covered a lot.
	So feel free to repost this on other channels and platforms.
	I'm Mike Adams here, brighteon.com.
	Thanks for tuning in.
	Take care.
	Today's interview is brought to you by HealthRangerStore.com and check out our silver mouthwash products.
	I've got a couple of them on my desk here.
	This is my favorite one, the citrus-flavored colloidal silver mouthwash that's on the edges there.
	It's incredibly delicious.
	And then in the middle there is the Bugs Away spray because, well, you know, it's springtime, a lot of bugs, and I can't even go walking outside without mosquitoes attacking me in Texas.
	So I use the Bugs Away spray all the time.
	Completely non-toxic, of course, no DEET, nothing like that.
	And with the mouthwash, let me show you on our website, we have a lot of different colloidal silver mouthwashes.
	We have different flavors.
	We have a cinnamon, and then we have this with iodine and zinc, different size packages.
	Again, the citrus is my favorite flavor, but there are other flavors to choose from.
	This one's just plain flavor.
	This is colloidal silver with cinnamon.
	This is rosemary and sage and so on.
	So check all that out at healthrangerstore.com.
	You'll find that we don't use any toxic ingredients, no synthetic garbage.
	It's all lab tested.
