	Welcome to Bright Town Broadcast News, Friday, September 22nd, 2023.
	I'm Mike Adams.
	Thank you for joining me.
	And I've got a bombshell interview coming up today with a former Homeland Security federal officer turned, well, I'm a whistleblower, podcaster.
	Definitely someone to contend with.
	His name is Doug Thornton.
	He's known as Wrecker.
	And he was a tactical team leader defending federal buildings and federal assets under Homeland Security against the Antifa terrorist attacks of 2020.
	And he's been deployed at the border and many other cities across the United States.
	And he has an urgent warning for us today about the breakdown of civil society and the coming civil war that he thinks is likely.
	And he's also got a warning of how to make sure that we don't fall into an insurrection trap that is being laid for the American people by the regime.
	What they did on J6, they want to do now nationwide on a much larger scale so they can paint the people as terrorists and invoke martial law and gun confiscation.
	And we have to make sure that we don't fall for that trap.
	So that interview is coming up.
	I've got a lot of other breaking news for you today and also a special audio report about this huge news of Russia banning diesel exports.
	And this is already sending shockwaves across the global oil industry.
	The diesel supply, of course, is suddenly in a panic.
	You're going to see diesel prices rise, but also gasoline prices rise because this is impacting oil prices in general or across the board.
	As you'll hear in my upcoming special report, this is part of a strategy that's being carried out by both Saudi Arabia and Russia.
	To create energy scarcity in the lead up to the 2024 election in order to try to oust the Biden regime, which has not only an anti-energy policy, but is also at war with Saudi Arabia and Russia, essentially.
	And I'll talk about that in more detail in the upcoming special report.
	This is something that's really critical to understand.
	Now, for some good news.
	I know it's kind of rare that I bring you good news on this podcast, but I've actually got a list here of 10 ways that globalists are failing to achieve their goals of the enslavement and extermination of humanity.
	And I thought I would start out with that list, just going through them, 10 items here.
	That may in fact give you some hope about facing the future because I do see many signs of a very strong revolt pushing back against the agendas, rejecting the tyranny and the authoritarianism and so on.
	So let's just go through the list here.
	Number one.
	Remember, there's 10 ways globalists are failing to achieve their goals of the enslavement and extermination of humanity.
	Number one, they have not achieved their vaccine depopulation goals.
	And in fact, they've only raised suspicion about future vaccines.
	So they had planned, I mean, based on all the information that I've been able to gather over the last two to three years, they had planned for this vaccine bioweapon to achieve a much higher kill rate.
	Now, looking at good data, it turns out that they have killed at least 17 million people around the world.
	And that's a huge number.
	Again, it's about triple the Holocaust of World War II. So it's not inconsequential.
	However...
	It's nowhere near the goal they were trying to achieve, which was killing 1 to 2 billion people from this vaccine.
	Now, granted, there will be many more deaths over time because the immune system destruction and the spike protein generation and the neurological damage and so on, the damage is cumulative year after year in many people because they've been turned into spike protein factories.
	So granted, there will be many more deaths.
	There could be hundreds of millions of deaths over the next decade, maybe even more.
	But it's clear at this point that they could not achieve the censorship they wanted on ivermectin.
	They tried to destroy ivermectin.
	They failed.
	I mean, they succeeded for a little while, but then it failed.
	They tried to silence people talking about ways to boost your immune system.
	In fact, they tried to push the narrative that claimed that natural immunity didn't even exist.
	Remember that?
	That was in the media.
	Oh, you're a conspiracy theorist.
	You're talking about something called natural immunity.
	They said that's a made-up concept.
	You don't have natural immunity.
	There's no such thing.
	Only vaccines can give you immunity, they said.
	Well, yeah, they're insane and it failed.
	They failed.
	And many people learned about ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine or zinc or quercetin or vitamin C or whatever.
	People took care of their immune systems and people decided to stop wearing the masks and people decided the lockdowns don't work.
	And people went back outside and got some sunshine and got some exercise.
	And a lot of people overcame this attempted genocide against humanity.
	So that's all in point number one.
	They failed.
	They were trying to kill at least a billion people and they haven't done it.
	And in fact, in this attempt, they've only raised a lot of suspicion about, you know, upcoming vaccines.
	So it's very unlikely that they're going to get the compliance that they think is necessary to achieve a global extermination rate that satisfies the globalist goals of genocide against the human race.
	So that's all point number one.
	And that's great news.
	They failed.
	Okay, point number two.
	They have not destroyed Russia.
	And you say, well, why is that good news?
	Isn't Russia an enemy of the United States?
	Well, actually the way I look at it, folks, is that...
	Humanity has been targeted as the enemy by the Western imperial forces, the so-called liberal democracy regime that's running the West, the United States, Canada, the UK, and so on.
	They have failed in their attempt to destroy another nation, another sovereign nation, which in this case happens to be Russia.
	Yes, they destroyed Libya.
	Yes, they destroyed Iraq, and they really hurt Vietnam during the Vietnam War, and there's a long list of countries they have destroyed, and they've also taken over the United States, and they've destroyed Canada for what it once was, and Australia, and New Zealand, and so on.
	But they haven't been able to destroy Russia, and on a global scale, on a pro-Earth scale, that's actually good news, because they don't want any other country to exist on its own.
	They don't want independent nations to be able to make their own decisions and elect their own leaders and engage in their own democracy or their own economies.
	They want everything to be completely controlled by the West.
	So this attempt of using Ukraine as a proxy war staging ground to wage war on Russia and to destroy Russia, this attempt has failed.
	And we are nearing the end, the final chapter of that attempt.
	Zelensky is begging for money in the United States.
	He may get a little bit more but not much more.
	There's no political willingness to keep funding Ukraine under the corrupt Zelensky regime that has imprisoned an American citizen, Gonzalo Lira, for speech crimes, a regime that ran out a tranny creature, spokescreature, whatever that entity was, that was making death threats against U.S. senators and other American citizens.
	The Zelensky regime has zero accountability for all the hundred plus billion dollars that's already been sent over there.
	Where did it go?
	Where are the results?
	Where's the accounting?
	Oh, it doesn't exist.
	It just vanished.
	All this money just vanished into the pockets of all the corrupt Ukrainian government leaders.
	It's all gone.
	And the bottom line is that this effort to try to destroy Russia at the cost of innocent young men in Ukraine, this effort is failing.
	which is a merciful outcome that will ultimately get us to peace and stability and stop the bloodshed and to restore trade, which is how you ensure long-term peace between nations, by the way.
	So the West has failed.
	And I know that America is trying to whip up World War III, but so far Putin has not taken the bait.
	And if anybody is cool-headed in this whole scenario, it's Putin.
	Putin hasn't taken the bait.
	Putin hasn't escalated this to insane levels.
	Putin hasn't used nuclear weapons, which of course is exactly what the West wants him to do, so they can claim how evil he is and how he has to be defeated by all the other nations in the world.
	And Putin has resisted the bait to escalate this into World War III. So far.
	So far.
	Granted, the United States is no doubt planning some kind of a nuclear false flag event, but that might fail as well.
	They might make a mistake.
	They might not be able to control the narrative.
	It might be obvious that they did it themselves.
	We'll see.
	But anyway, that's point number two.
	That the West has not been able to destroy Russia.
	And that's an important success for any sovereign nation on planet Earth.
	Point number three is that...
	The globalists are failing at achieving their censorship domination goals over online speech.
	And they've tried everything.
	They have colluded with big tech.
	They have deplatformed people.
	They've launched all these fact checkers and disinformation organizations, and they've labeled people as disinformation dozen.
	And they're rolling out more things.
	News guard.
	Oh, we have to guard you from news unless we agree with it.
	And it's just on and on.
	And guess what?
	It has failed.
	It has failed because across the population, most people know that the fact checkers are the liars.
	People know the fact checkers are full of bunk.
	They're actually the fake fact checkers or the faker pushers, fake pushers, fake fact pushers, however you want to say that.
	You can't trust them.
	And that the number one source of disinformation in our world is really any government entity or the WHO. That's where the disinformation and the misinformation is coming from.
	People have less trust in authorities now than they did before COVID and before the censorship push really began.
	So by having an overzealous effort to try to censor the truth about everything, the globalists have actually created more distrust of so-called official sources.
	That's a failure on their part.
	They thought by now they would have controlled all online speech and no alternative voices would have any audiences whatsoever.
	I mean, they're even trying to destroy Russell Brand for this very reason.
	And that's failing, too.
	You notice that?
	It's failing.
	Most people aren't buying it.
	They see it's all contrived, you know, and they try to silence me.
	What did I do?
	I built my own platform, Brighteon.com, Brighteon.social.
	Also, if you haven't used that, it's an outstanding platform.
	And although I'm nowhere near as popular as I would be if they hadn't deplatformed me off of, you know, Facebook and YouTube and everything else, I still reach a generous number of people who matter, people like you.
	I may not reach, you know, 100 million people out there, but I do reach, over a year, I reach millions.
	And it's the millions that count.
	Because you listening to this...
	You are among powerful, discerning people who actually can shape the future of human civilization.
	You're not an NPC, a non-player character.
	You're not some inconsequential person.
	You're not someone who just obeys.
	You're not a sheeple.
	You are someone who can think for yourself, which means you're a mover and a shaker.
	You're someone who does something that matters for the future of this world.
	And those are the people that I tend to reach.
	So the censorship domination has failed.
	That was point number three.
	Point number four.
	The globalists, and this is really critical, they have failed to win the hearts and minds of the people around the world.
	How many people...
	Look at the World Economic Forum and say, With his eye bags, he's just so wonderful, loving-looking.
	And they're looking out for our best interests, and we just love these globalists.
	How many people are like that?
	Nobody.
	Nobody.
	People are getting red-pilled everywhere across the planet, even people who you would have previously thought couldn't be red-pilled.
	They're getting red-pilled, although they may not use the term red-pilled.
	But they're getting red-pilled, even like RFK Jr.
	followers.
	A lot of them, you know, former liberals, get red-pilled about a lot of things.
	Like, wait a second.
	This whole Biden regime thing, this is a con, isn't it?
	It's a con.
	They don't want to use red pill because they don't like the color red because it reminds them of Republicans, but they're still, they're waking up.
	They're not woke, they're awake.
	See, that's happening on the left and the right and among independents everywhere.
	People are getting red-pilled.
	And by the way, homeschooling is at an all-time high.
	Parents are keeping their kids out of the indoctrination centers.
	And more and more people distrust the CDC, the FDA, the pharmaceutical cartels, and the Biden regime itself.
	Because they see more and more what's happening.
	That's why I think something like only 17% of the population, according to at least one poll I saw, even planned to get these new vaccine shots.
	17%, that's less than one out of five people.
	Well, what happened to the other four out of five?
	Well, they don't trust it anymore.
	Not interested in another bioweapons injection?
	Thank you very much.
	So, the globalists have failed to win the hearts and minds of the people.
	Alright, point number five.
	They've also failed in their climate narrative that Al Gore has been pushing for decades and Little Miss Thunderpants, Greta, she's been pushing it for a number of years.
	And there's so much pushback now.
	You know, 1,600 scientists signing an accord that says that this is all bogus BS nonsense.
	And people are pushing back.
	Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant.
	It's the miracle molecule of life for planet Earth, you know?
	And by the way, the warming graphs were all faked.
	The hockey stick graph, you know?
	It was rigged software that would generate a hockey stick shape no matter what data set you put into it, it turns out.
	Totally rigged like elections.
	So now more people are pushing back than ever before.
	And the climate cultists are getting more and more radical, have you noticed, in their actions.
	Like they're gluing their hands to the concrete in the middle of the highway.
	At least they're doing this in European countries.
	I'm not sure they would try this in the United States because most drivers just wouldn't stop.
	Like, oh look honey, speed bumps!
	What was that?
	Oh, climate speed bumps.
	Excuse me.
	They would just keep going on down the road, you know.
	But in Europe, the Europeans actually stop.
	And so the climate cultists, who use like crazy epoxy to cement their hands to the road sometimes, and it makes you wonder if they're ever going to get their hand function back because they're using such crazy things.
	But All they're doing is pissing people off.
	People are driving up to them like, get out of the road!
	I gotta get to work!
	You know, I gotta get my kid to childcare.
	Or, you know, I gotta get my grandmother to the hospital.
	I mean, get the heck out of the road!
	And they're just dragging people out of the roads.
	Which is a good thing to do.
	So, the pushback is everywhere and the climate lunatics are just appearing more and more radical and desperate.
	Which they are.
	They're desperate, and they're brainwashed, and they're part of a cult, and they're insane and stupid.
	But, you know, I'm not saying that you should harm them in any way, but we should push back against them.
	All right, point number six.
	The globalists, this is another critical one, they are failing to convince people that CBDCs are a great idea.
	Central bank digital currencies I'm talking about.
	And, you know, they need CBDCs to be rolled out in order to control people, to control their money, to surveil their money, to have programmable money, to limit how you can spend your money, you know, to limit what you're allowed to buy and to use a social credit score to determine whether you can have access to your money because they control it.
	Nobody wants CBDCs that I can see.
	Not people on the left, not people on the right.
	Nobody wants CBDCs.
	People want privacy of cash and people want the utility of having control over their own money to be able to spend it or to give it away without interference from government.
	And we have to thank Castro Trudeau in Canada for alerting people to this during the Canadian trucker convoy protests when those who donated to the truckers had their bank accounts shut down by order of the regime.
	And this alerted people to the whole issue of, wait a second, you mean government can block my access to my own checking account and my own ATM?
	Yes, they can.
	Everybody knows this now.
	I mean, except a few oblivious idiots out there, but almost everybody knows this, and they don't want government to be able to block their use of their own money or to control what they're allowed to do with it.
	So when they roll out CBDCs, my prediction, it will fail.
	It'll probably fail in two ways.
	It'll fail in terms of public acceptance.
	Most people will reject the CBDCs.
	Secondly, it's going to fail on technical terms.
	Why?
	Because it's programmed by the government.
	The same government that can't keep the food stamp system working and the post office working reliably.
	The same government that can't seem to run elections in any kind of way that makes any sense.
	Well, I know all of that's on purpose.
	But the same government that can't have a background check system that works correctly.
	The same government that can't have any accounting for $100 billion plus that went to Ukraine.
	The same government that can't run Obamacare.
	If you look at the source code, it's a total joke.
	Are you serious?
	They're going to run a central bank digital currency system that protects your privacy and has encryption and has mobile applications that everybody can use and it's super simple and it's all hack-proof and there won't be any successful hacking attempts.
	Are you kidding me?
	No!
	Government CBDCs are going to be a disaster.
	It's going to be hacked.
	It's going to have outages.
	Ultimately, people are going to say, wow, this digital money nonsense doesn't work.
	We should go back to the way that we used to do it that actually worked, which is debit cards and cash and things like that.
	And by the way, the harder they push CBDCs, the more people are just going to push back, especially if it involves any kind of biometrics like Mark of the Beast systems.
	First of all, all the Christians are going to say, heck no.
	And by the way, how is the government supposed to make sure that everybody has a mobile phone anyway in order to use CBDCs?
	Because there's a huge percentage of the population that doesn't have access to mobile devices.
	There's another big portion of people that don't know how to use them.
	There's a bunch of homeless people that can't afford them and don't have any place to charge them and so on.
	How are they supposed to use CBDCs?
	And, by the way, there's going to be so much pushback that any retailers that try to ban cash are going to be probably protested and picketed and hit by shoplifters galore because people are going to demand that stores accept cash.
	Cash is legal tender.
	And anybody that bans cash, man, it's going to be a Budweiser-level mistake in terms of the public pushback against them.
	Mark my words.
	Alright, point number seven.
	The powers that be have failed to convince Americans that Joe Biden and the Democrats are doing a great job.
	Now, granted...
	It would be impossible to convince people that Joe Biden is doing a great job unless those people are complete idiots.
	There are a few of those around, but by and large, any normal rational person looking at Joe Biden would say, that guy's a moron and he has no idea what he's doing and he can barely speak.
	But one person who is advertising his lack of intelligence, and he's a Hollywood character, a guy, John Cusack, the actor, he recently called Joe Biden, quote, the most competent executive that he's ever seen.
	He tweeted that.
	The most competent executive.
	Yeah, this is John Cusack's view of the world today.
	Which says more about John Cusack's low IQ than it does about Joe Biden's low IQ. But for normal people who aren't living in a bubble Hollywood libtards, Joe Biden is an idiot.
	And so this attempt to try to convince people that Biden was the most popular president ever and he won all these votes and he beat Trump and his Bidenomics is working great and there's no inflation, you know, and everything's great, it's failing.
	People don't feel that way at all.
	Because, you know, people have to buy food.
	People have to buy gasoline.
	People have to deal with supply chain problems.
	People have to deal with the border crossings and the violent crime that's skyrocketing across Democrat cities.
	And it's all happening under the Biden regime due to Biden policies or Democrat policies.
	So, yeah, you can't serve people, you know, pig slop and say, no, that's French cuisine.
	I mean, maybe you can a few people, but by and large, people are like, no, that's pig slop.
	That's Joe Biden pig slop.
	All right.
	Failure number eight.
	The people in charge, the authoritarians, they have failed to terrorize the American people into obedience.
	Now, they've weaponized the DOJ and the FBI, as you know.
	And we saw that congresswoman from Ukraine speaking out about this during the Merrick Garland hearings in Congress.
	And she actually accused Merrick Garland of turning the DOJ into the KGB. And she's absolutely correct.
	And that's the whole goal of the DOJ now.
	Is to terrorize the American people, at least the conservatives, and to try to silence people who are political competitors or enemies of the Biden regime.
	And of course, the FBI just means following Biden's instructions.
	Everybody knows that.
	So they thought that everybody would just lay down and be silent and I don't want to rock the boat.
	We're too afraid.
	But what's actually happening is that more people are speaking out than ever before.
	More people are speaking out.
	More independent journalists are speaking out, like Glenn Greenwald, for example.
	And more independent media people are speaking out.
	More whistleblowers are coming out in medicine and inside the IRS, by the way, to blow the whistle on the Biden crime family, among other things.
	There's Some kind of turning point has been reached or tipping point.
	There are more people now who are so fed up and they feel like they have nothing left to lose that they are coming out now and telling the truth and blowing the whistle and pointing at the real criminals, which are the criminals in the District of Criminals, Washington, D.C., And so, again, all these efforts to try to terrorize the American people into silence and obedience, they have failed.
	And there's something about the American spirit.
	The American spirit is one of, you know, resistance against tyranny.
	1776 is how this nation was founded.
	And that American spirit is alive and well to this day.
	Americans are a special breed.
	And even in certain parts of America, it's even more special, like Texans, for example, which is why I love living in Texas.
	But Americans are not like Europeans.
	Nothing against those of you in Europe who are listening.
	You are obviously the exception to this.
	But by and large, Europeans or Western Europeans in particular are, you know, obedience worshipers.
	They truly are.
	They go along with the most insane things because they don't want to rock the boat and they want to be loyal to the queen.
	Are you kidding me?
	Americans are like, that's crazy.
	You people are nuts.
	Americans push back against tyranny like what Governor Grisham just experienced in New Mexico when she tried to push that Second Amendment ban.
	In Albuquerque, actually a couple counties in New Mexico, the pushback was so great that her own attorney general pushed back against her, and she nominated that person into that position.
	Massive pushback.
	The American people are a different breed.
	And, you know, the American people, they start off polite.
	They start off like, okay, yeah, well, maybe we don't want to argue.
	We'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
	Maybe that's what happened in the 2020 election.
	People didn't want to rise up.
	Most people didn't.
	They just wanted to go along.
	But now here we are with things falling apart, food becoming unaffordable, homelessness exploding, violent crime exploding, an invasion happening at the border, and more and more Americans are just fed up with it.
	They've had enough.
	And they're pushing back in peaceful ways that matter.
	Speaking out, for example, blowing the whistle, preparing to vote against the regime, you know, using alternative media instead of tuning into mainstream corporate media, which is nothing but lies and propaganda.
	So the American spirit is, in fact, alive and well.
	And you know, I would add along with that, the establishment has failed to destroy the spirit of faith.
	Because many Americans have faith.
	They believe in God.
	They believe in Jesus Christ.
	They believe in the founding spiritual principles of the United States of America.
	And even though it's a country that appears to be overrun by demonic drag queens, pedophiles, child mutilators, groomers, traffickers and other Democrats, these people are not losing faith in the United States.
	In fact, many of them are doubling down on their faith in God.
	And some of them are waiting for the rapture.
	Some of them are asking, begging God to intervene.
	Some of them are just reading more scripture, going to church more and not the drag queen churches.
	I'm talking about the real churches.
	But the establishment has failed to crush the spirit of faith and the relationship, that special relationship that the United States of America has with God through the founding of this nation on Christian principles.
	So that's all point number eight.
	Now point number nine, kind of related to that though, is that the establishment has utterly failed to destroy Donald Trump.
	And in a similar fashion, they're also failing to destroy RFK. Everything they try to do to destroy these two men just makes them more popular than ever before.
	Now, Trump in particular, they've been trying to destroy Trump since, what, 2015?
	I mean, they've been desperately trying.
	They have pulled out all the stops.
	They've probably wielded more weapons against Donald Trump than any targeted individual in the history of the United States of America and its deep state and the CIA and the FBI and all the departments put together.
	They tried to take Trump down in every way possible with the fake dossier, all the fake impeachment, the fake evidence, the corporate media slanders and smears, the made-up lies.
	They tried.
	And they've still failed.
	Isn't that extraordinary?
	That Trump is now the most popular president.
	He is the most popular candidate for president.
	Right now, according to the polls.
	In fact, if you go to the website called electionbettingodds.com, which aggregates the live betting activity, which has historically tended to be pretty accurate, although it wasn't in 2016 because Trump surprised everybody with his victory.
	But nevertheless, if you look at the GOP nomination for 2024, The betting odds say that Trump has a 69.9% chance of being the GOP nominee.
	That's 70%, folks.
	The next most likely candidate is DeSantis at 10.8%.
	In other words, Trump is almost 60 points higher than the second place candidate for the GOP nomination.
	That's extraordinary.
	I don't recall ever seeing that before on the GOP side.
	And then, by the way, Ramaswamy is at 6.1%, which is kind of interesting.
	Now, if you look at the general election, Biden and Trump are pretty much tied, depending on what day you look at this, they're both around 32%.
	And then after that, this is for the presidency of the United States.
	After that, 5.8% think Newsom is going to be the president.
	4.4% think Michelle Obama is going to be president, or Michael.
	4.3% think that Kennedy is going to be president, and so on.
	So those are much smaller numbers.
	And it's really a competition between Biden and Trump, which tells you...
	Oh, and by the way, Trump is leading by seven or eight points in most of the swing states, the states that actually count.
	So, what this tells you is that they've failed to destroy Donald Trump.
	They've also failed to destroy RFK, like I said.
	And they've failed to convince us that Joe Biden is an awesome candidate.
	And then, finally, point number ten...
	The powers that be have also utterly failed to convince most parents that mutilating their children in the name of inclusiveness is an awesome idea.
	Because it's so insane.
	And they pushed the envelope on purpose.
	They probably said, what can we get away with?
	What can we convince people is a great idea?
	What's the craziest thing we can come up with?
	One of them raised their hand.
	How about this?
	We tell people that eating eggs is bad.
	And, you know, the other one's like, no, we tried that in the 70s when we were pushing margarine and canola oil.
	We already did that one.
	Okay.
	Who's next?
	Who's got another idea?
	Another person raised their hand.
	Let's tell them that sunlight is bad and let's say we're going to block the sun.
	And they're like, no, we're doing that already.
	Don't you follow Bill Gates' rules?
	It's called global dimming.
	It's stratospheric aerosol injection.
	It's already happening.
	We're doing that.
	Who's got a better idea?
	Third person raised their hand.
	I've got one.
	How about we tell people that if they chop off the penises and mutilate the vaginas of their children, that that will make them very popular in social circles and it will be a virtue signaling badge of pride.
	How about that?
	And the person running the meeting is like, yes, finally!
	That's crazy enough that it will push the envelope.
	Let's try that.
	Let's do the child mutilation narrative and see if we can get away with that.
	So they did.
	So they pushed that out there.
	Like mutilating children, but we have to name it something different.
	Let's name it something that is related to health and wellness and positivity.
	Something like an affirmation.
	Like, yeah, let's call it affirming.
	Let's call it like, let's see, genital affirming?
	No, that's a little too graphic, a little too medical, a little too clinical.
	Let's call it gender affirming.
	Wellness care.
	How about that?
	Gender affirming wellness care.
	So that we take their attention away from the scalpels and the blood.
	How about that?
	Yes, that's it.
	Gender affirming care.
	Perfect.
	So that's what they're doing.
	They push that out.
	And yet, it's failing.
	There's pushback against it that is growing.
	There are, in fact, detransitioners.
	Young adults who were mutilated as children and are now suing the doctors and the hospitals that mutilated them.
	And I can't wait for them to sue their own parents, by the way.
	That's going to be awesome.
	I mean, seriously, if your parents mutilated you, wouldn't you sue them, for God's sake?
	And there's also a legislative pushback against this across many conservative states.
	Lawmakers everywhere.
	And Donald Trump has even promised that when he's president, he's going to ban gender mutilation surgery nationwide.
	And I would add to that, of course, my own personal opinion is that we should prosecute, arrest and prosecute every doctor, every counselor, every school administrator or teacher or anybody who pushed children into prison.
	Gender mutilation surgeries, they themselves should be prosecuted and criminally charged, in my opinion.
	So let's make sure that we remember who they are, because when this issue turns, we need to make sure that those who mutilated children are held accountable.
	And I think they will be.
	Because, well, there are medical records, and a lot of these mutilated children, as they grow up, they're not going to forget the doctors that mutilated them.
	And the counselors that push them into that mutilation.
	That is, if they're still alive.
	I mean, suicide rates are through the roof among those who undergo those kinds of mutilations, but that's one more reason to stop it.
	So those are ten things.
	Ten areas where the globalists and the authoritarians are actually failing.
	So I know it feels like a constant assault.
	And there are some areas where they are succeeding, such as the migrant invasion of the United States.
	And they are pushing a lot more censorship.
	They're pushing another pandemic and so on.
	There are many areas like that.
	But, by and large, they are failing on so many fronts that they're way behind schedule.
	And this is what's critical to understand.
	They had hoped to be able to accelerate Agenda 2030.
	And have it in place probably by next year.
	They're not going to be able to do that.
	And they're trying to accelerate the 2050 agenda into 2030.
	And that's probably not going to happen either.
	In fact, the globalists are at risk of losing control, losing power dramatically as the world rises up in a peaceful revolution against tyranny and death and genocide and mutilations And censorship and all the things that these government regimes stand for.
	There's a human revolution underway.
	A revolution of the soul, of the spirit, of the mind, of consciousness that is underway.
	And this revolution is only gaining steam.
	And every time the globalists try to crack down on human freedom and human ingenuity and human speech...
	It only recruits more people to the revolt against the globalists.
	So every weapon formed against us shall fail.
	The human spirit is an extraordinary thing.
	Human ingenuity knows no bounds.
	The God-given gift of the human body and mind to heal itself is is extraordinary and it is not understood by the globalists.
	They think of humans as having no soul, no spirit, no consciousness, no humanity and that's why they think they can defeat you so easily.
	They think that you have no resiliency, that you have no creativity or adaptation, that you have no ability to Solve problems and escape the genocide, right?
	But they're wrong about that.
	They have underestimated humanity.
	They've underestimated the ability of the body to heal, the ability to overcome biological weapons and vaccine damage.
	They've underestimated the passion in the sharing of knowledge that characterizes independent media, people like myself and others in this space who do what we do, not for money, not for power, Not for greed, but because we have genuine compassion for fellow human beings.
	We do this because it's the mission to help uplift and empower, and where possible, protect human beings from this genocide that's taking place.
	We do this on a volunteer basis, essentially, many of us across this space.
	I can't even tell you how many hosts on Brighteon.tv...
	They make no money, but they do it because it matters.
	It's the right thing to do.
	The knowledge, the information is what will save human civilization.
	And you see, globalists don't understand that.
	They think everybody is only motivated by money and power because that's the way they are.
	So they can't fathom people doing this for free.
	They can't fathom people actually caring about fellow human beings or actually wanting to save lives, even if there's nothing in it for themselves.
	That idea is alien to the globalists.
	And that's why they underestimate us, because they can't see the world through our eyes.
	They are incapable of empathy or of compassion.
	And this is why they are failing.
	Even with all their tyranny and all their coercion and all their control and all their money systems and propaganda, they're still failing because they lack the humanity.
	That we have, naturally, every day that drives us as truth-tellers and people who love humanity, people who love truth, transparency, and light.
	We are driven by God-like forces and the force of life, forces that the globalists do not understand because they are tied to Satanism and demonism and they are isolated and The ideas that drive us are alien to them.
	They can't understand why anyone would love life, for example, because they get power through death.
	Think about it.
	They get power through death and the ritualistic sacrifice of children that gives them power.
	They don't understand the concept of gaining power and passion through the love of life and the love of Christ and the love of humanity and the existence of consciousness.
	They don't get it, and they never will.
	And that's why they will never fully defeat us.
	They might kill billions of people, they probably will, but they can't defeat us because what drives us transcends their reality.
	I mean, really think about that.
	There's powerful concepts here, but this is why we will win this war.
	This war against humanity and the war against truth and the war against reality that's being waged by the globalists and the demon worshippers and people like that Ukrainian tranny spokescreature who was fired for making death threats.
	It's like, man, I'm going to miss that creature.
	I'm really going to miss that creature.
	I hope it posts some other independent videos because it was so entertaining.
	Alright, now, next, I want to play this special report for you.
	I recorded earlier, it's about 20 minutes or so, and it's about Russia banning the exports of diesel.
	And the implications of this, and also the two strategies that both Russia and Saudi Arabia are pursuing in order to try to dethrone the Biden regime.
	So, understand, before I get to that, understand that the Saudis and Russia and us I mean, we share at least one common goal, and maybe more,
	who knows, but the one common goal we all share is to dethrone the Biden regime and to dismantle the corruption of That currently occupies, through rigged elections and so on, the U.S. empire and that has weaponized the United States against humanity.
	So Russia wants Biden and Victoria Nuland and Blinken and all these lunatics defeated and so do you and I and so do the Saudis and so does every reasonable, rational person.
	It doesn't mean we're on the side of Russia or that we're on the side of the Saudis.
	It's just that there's an intersection of this critical goal.
	I mean, Russia wants to protect its domestic energy production and exports, whereas you and I just want our liberty back.
	But even though we have different reasons, There's an intersection of what is necessary for that to happen, and that is the dismantling of the corrupt criminal Biden regime and the cartel of political operatives that rig elections and gaslight the American people and use coercion and weaponization of government agencies against we the people and so on.
	So this is a common goal that we all share.
	I'm going to play this report for you.
	First, let me just plug our sponsor today, the Satellite Phone Store.
	You've heard me talk about them a lot, but have you really thought about how much you're going to need backup communications if you're stuck on the road someday in a storm, in a hurricane, the power lines are down?
	The cell towers don't work or there's a kill switch that's been activated, like October 4th coming up, National Emergency Broadcast System Test.
	Why do you think they're testing that system?
	Well, they probably plan for a national emergency of some kind.
	Will cell towers even work?
	Will comms even work?
	Well, satellites will work because that's what the government uses.
	That's what senators use.
	That's what the military uses.
	And it's the same satellites that these sat phones use.
	So yeah, those satellites are going to continue to function.
	If you want to get a satellite phone, the satellite phone store has made them affordable.
	Just a monthly fee that gives you minutes and you get to keep the phone after, I think it's 12 or 18 months depending on the phone.
	Go to sat123.com and check out what they have.
	And if it's a good fit for you, then travel with it.
	Use it.
	Test it.
	Keep it in your car if you're on the road or have one in your office.
	Take it with you on an airplane if you take a plane trip.
	If you go on a boat, take it on the boat because it works from oceans.
	Obviously, it works everywhere on the planet.
	Everywhere.
	As long as you can see the sky, you can make a call.
	Snowboarders use this.
	You know, skiers.
	Extreme sports people.
	You get stuck on a mountain somewhere.
	I can't get down.
	You know, call a satellite.
	I mean, you can make a satellite-based phone call.
	And maybe don't go on mountains that you can't get down from.
	I'm just saying.
	Some people overdo the adventure aspects and they get stuck.
	But anyway, the Satellite Phone Store can connect you with both the BibiSticks, which are the two-way satellite text messaging devices, or the satellite phones themselves.
	SAT123.com.
	Alright, with that said, let's jump into the roughly 20-minute special report about Russia banning diesel exports and what they're trying to achieve with this.
	Enjoy the report.
	I'll be back with you on the other side, and then we'll get to today's bombshell interview.
	Alright, welcome to the special report.
	In bombshell news that's sending shockwaves around the world, Russia just announced a ban on virtually all exports of diesel in order to shore up their own domestic diesel supply.
	At least that's the official cover story for why this decision was made.
	This is already sending shockwaves, like I said, through the world oil markets.
	And it's going to create shortages or at least price increases with some scarcity in many countries around the world, ultimately affecting the United States because oil is global.
	It's a global commodity.
	If countries in the Middle East can't get the oil from Russia, they're going to get it from somewhere else.
	That's going to take away supplies that normally the United States relies on.
	So you're going to see now diesel prices really skyrocketing in the United States and elsewhere.
	Now, since oil prices are skyrocketing as a result of this, it also means that gasoline prices are going to skyrocket, perhaps not as much percentage-wise as diesel, but gas will go up as well.
	There are two critical things happening here that I think we all need to understand.
	Point number one is that both Russia and Saudi Arabia are using energy scarcity in the case of the Saudis cutting back oil production and now in the case of Russia banning diesel exports.
	They're using this as a way to try to achieve regime change in the United States.
	Now both the Saudis and Russia Remember, those are two nations that are highly dependent on energy exports as the bulk of their GDP, the bulk of their wealth comes from energy.
	The United States has been at war with fossil fuels under the Biden regime.
	Biden has not only shut down domestic supply and domestic infrastructure, including pipelines, refineries, exploration, and so on, including some big exploration projects that were already awarded in Alaska and now have been rescinded by the federal government, and that's going to have devastating consequences.
	But like I said, not only has domestic supply been shut down by Joe Biden and his handlers, but also this push toward EVs and the push to ban combustion engines is a long-term pain for Saudi Arabia and Russia.
	On top of that, the United States Navy destroyed the Nord Stream pipeline, of course, in the Baltic Sea.
	In order to halt Russia's exports of natural gas to Europe, simultaneously damaging Europe's economy and, frankly, devastating Germany's industrial capabilities, and, at the same time, attempting to punish Russia economically by destroying the pipeline.
	So, the United States, under the Biden regime, has been at war with fossil fuels.
	Because, of course, the climate cultists are in charge, and it's a cult of lunatics who think that all energy is bad.
	Or, I guess, at least, except solar energy.
	But they won't tell you that that requires mining of minerals and so on.
	And they like wind energy, except wind energy isn't reliable.
	So, essentially, they believe that energy is bad, and that humanity...
	Needs to be cut off from energy, which of course would cut off humanity from food, which is also part of the climate cult, to destroy the global food supply, as we've been seeing in spades across Western Europe as well as the United States and Canada.
	Eat the bugs is the mantra that's guiding them.
	So both Russia and the Saudis want to defeat Biden.
	Russia and the Saudis would much rather have Donald Trump as president Not because Trump is, quote, a friend.
	He's not a friend of Russia.
	He's not a friend of the Saudis per se.
	But Trump knows how to do deals with people, with nations.
	Trump would restore trading status and Trump would end the war in Ukraine.
	And Russia wants to get back to trade.
	The Saudis want to get back to exporting more oil.
	So they want Trump or someone like Trump in the White House.
	In fact, they want Trump a lot more than they want RFK, because RFK is anti-fossil fuels for the most part as well.
	So the Saudis and the Russians would much rather see Trump in the White House.
	In order to achieve that, they want to make the economic pain really hurt for the next year in the United States.
	And it's simple for them to do that.
	All they have to do is create energy scarcity and energy price inflation.
	And that's exactly what they've both been doing.
	And you can thank Joe Biden for that In fact, you can thank Joe Biden for the fact that due to his shutdowns of domestic energy infrastructure in the United States, he has created extreme vulnerability to foreign actors and these kinds of supply side maneuvers that are going to really hurt the U.S. economy.
	You see, if we had more domestic oil exploration like we had under Trump, where the United States was energy independent, the U.S. was actually seeing a net exports of energy because we were producing so much domestically.
	Oh, and by the way, don't forget RFK Jr.
	says he's going to ban fracking, which would most definitely devastate a lot of U.S. energy production.
	But anyway...
	We were a net energy producer and exporter under Trump.
	That was all reversed by Biden.
	As a result, the United States lost its energy security and the U.S. has become more dependent on other nations, including Saudi Arabia and, indirectly, Russia, for its energy imports.
	So, in other words, by shutting down domestic energy production, Joe Biden made us vulnerable to the Russians.
	Think about that.
	Vulnerable to the Russians' decisions.
	Alright, so that's all under the category of trend number one, which, to summarize, is that the Saudis and Russia want to see Joe Biden removed from office.
	And the way to achieve that is to cause a lot of economic pain over the next year so that voters are fed up.
	Because, you know, voters see gas prices and diesel prices, and they see food prices.
	You can hide a lot of numbers from consumers, but you can't hide what it costs them to buy food at the grocery store, because they do that themselves.
	And you can't hide the increasing prices of gasoline or diesel at the gas pump.
	So this is one of the most direct ways to kind of open the eyes of the American consumer and force them to realize, hey, this sucks.
	This Biden regime sucks.
	Everything's more expensive.
	We can't afford to live, right?
	So that's what's going on.
	Trend number two, which is just as important, but longer term.
	Trend number two is that we are seeing a collapse of globalization, a collapse of global trade, as more and more countries in the age of scarcity and also inflation caused by fiat currency money printing around the world More and more countries are blocking exports in order to protect their domestic supplies of various commodities.
	For example, India and rice.
	So India banned exports of rice a couple of months ago.
	Not every variety, but the most popular varieties.
	I think they still export basmati rice, for example.
	But the typical white rice that you get that makes up the bulk of rice around the world...
	India banned that from being exported.
	Why?
	Well, because rice was becoming unaffordable domestically.
	And then India was seeing a lot of revolt-oriented type of political pressures of people who are unable to afford to eat domestically.
	So, India bans exports.
	We're also seeing, by the way, right now, A lot of food supply chain friction between Poland and Ukraine.
	So Ukraine is trying to export its grains right now.
	And Poland accuses Ukraine of dumping low-cost grain onto the marketplace, hurting Poland's farmers.
	And so Poland banned grain from Ukraine.
	And then in response, Ukraine is banning certain food exports out of Poland.
	So there are more barriers being erected worldwide.
	And those are just a couple of examples.
	There are many more.
	For example, I think China banning seafood exports from Japan or around Japan's waters because Japan is dumping radioactive Fukushima water into the ocean.
	So I don't know if that's been worked out yet, but that's just another example.
	There are a lot of food borders being erected or barriers to trade that are being erected.
	And it's not just food, it's other commodities as well.
	And in fact, probably the greatest example of this that we saw was the United States forcing the SWIFT transaction system to ban Russia from being able to participate in SWIFT. And that caused an immediate blockade, an economic blockade, affecting thousands of different commodities, including fertilizer out of Russia, which of course impacted the availability and price affordability of fertilizer for farmers across Western Europe.
	So it's part of the attack on the food supply as well.
	In addition to fertilizer, there are also, of course, mined minerals, such as aluminum, copper, zinc, and so on.
	And Russia is a massive exporter of many of those, especially aluminum, but also including copper to some extent, and Russia mines a lot of gold and silver as well.
	Well, so there are now more trade barriers for those.
	But this is not just about Russia.
	This is about India.
	This is about China.
	This is about Japan.
	This is about many countries around the world that are now erecting more barriers to global trade as the global trade system is itself imploding.
	So the overriding trend that we are seeing here is a collapse of global supply chains and global stability in the predictability of those supply chains And you can feel this right now.
	You can see it yourself when you try to get replacement parts for your air conditioner or replacement parts for your car.
	Some people are having to wait six months for a part for a car, and they can't drive the car because the part's not available.
	And in some of these cases, some of these cars are so advanced with electronics these days, and one little sensor goes out like a 50-cent You know, usually emissions-related, and the car refuses to run until you replace the sensor, and the sensor is not available anywhere on the planet for the next year.
	You know, that kind of thing.
	That's happening.
	And so, you're seeing the breakdown of the entire global system of trade that came into existence following World War II with the United States dominating naval power And the US dominating the projection of power, which created safe routes for international transportation of shipping containers.
	And because of the very, very low costs of shipping goods on a shipping container, I mean, it's just like pennies a pound, if not less, maybe a fraction of a penny a pound, we saw globalization explode after World War II, especially through the 1970s and 80s and 90s and so on.
	Because it was very inexpensive to ship materials, for example, to China or to Vietnam or Indonesia, have them assembled, have the manufacturing there with cheap labor laws and very few environmental protections and so on, and then to ship the finished goods back to the markets in North America and Europe, typically.
	Well, that wasn't possible before globalization.
	And globalization was only made possible by the projection of naval power by the United States.
	That naval power is now waning dramatically.
	In fact, I saw a headline today that China now has far more naval vessels than does the United States.
	And China is producing them at a much more rapid pace.
	Now, it doesn't mean that...
	It doesn't mean that it's apples and apples, by the way.
	America still has, by far, the most capable collection of aircraft carriers.
	And I think the aircraft carriers that the United States has are far more effective compared to China's aircraft carriers.
	However, that is changing.
	China is gaining experience and is building a manufacturing infrastructure to build a lot more ships, including aircraft carriers, while the United States is dismantling its own energy infrastructure, and so is Germany, and so is the United Kingdom,
	and France, and Hungary, and I don't know about Poland, probably a similar thing is happening there, but the West is dismantling its ability to To construct military vessels that can keep the seas dominated by one unipolar force in the world, which gave rise to globalization.
	As that falls apart, as China begins to expand its naval presence, In all of Southeast Asia, including the Straits of Taiwan, in the Pacific region, including Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, and so on, you're going to see major disruptions in global trade, especially involving anything that moves in or out of Asia to the United States.
	So I know that was a long way to explain the second trend, but what we need to understand...
	Is that globalization is dying.
	It is imploding right now.
	And it's not going to be reversed.
	Not in our lifetimes.
	And what this means is that the things that you buy are going to become less available and a lot more expensive, if not even impossible to find in many cases.
	And it also means that there will be a lot of opportunities for domestic production Of many products and solutions.
	But domestically, in the United States in particular, for example, we don't have a work ethic anymore.
	We don't have a generation of youth that is willing to work.
	They are unwilling to work.
	They rebel at the thought of work because they're hyper-privileged, universal basic income recipients.
	They don't think that they should have to work.
	And the situation is so desperate among American employers trying to find people who are willing to work that they have pressured Governors and legislatures and others to do things like what we just saw, the state of New York, I believe it's the state,
	it might be the city of New York City, but I think it's the state, is authorizing work permits for, and I hope I'm getting this number correct, 370,000 Venezuelans to come to New York and to legally take over the work in the factories.
	The textile companies, everything.
	370,000 Venezuelans are being given permission to work in New York.
	That would not be happening if the American youth wanted to work, but they do not.
	And so, like I said, the employers pressure the lawmakers and governors and so on to allow essentially migrants or non-Americans to come in and work because they're still willing to work, by the way.
	So much of the workforce in the United States is going to shift over to licensed illegals who are granted work permits in the U.S. to produce the goods that the Americans will be consuming.
	And those goods will cost significantly more than what you're used to paying.
	And the supply chain is going to be extremely difficult to navigate for the manufacturers due to the collapse of globalization that we're talking about here.
	So the bottom line?
	Well, countries like Russia that have developed their own domestic supply chains and domestic infrastructure for energy, minerals, manufacturing, and so on, and also countries that have a culture that supports hard work, i.e.
	Russia, where people have lived under economic sanctions for many years, those countries are going to do extraordinarily well.
	Countries like the United States that have outsourced virtually all the manufacturing and that have abandoned a work ethic are going to suffer torturously under a lack of supply, scarcity, price inflation, and also, of course, unemployed youth just carrying out acts of chaos across the cities as they are known to do now.
	That's all they do.
	I guess they have street racing parties and drug parties and everything, and then they just attack police.
	That's what youth do across America's cities now, apparently.
	It is accurate to say that life in America is going to become a lot more difficult.
	Life in Western Europe, a lot more difficult.
	Life in Russia is probably going to improve.
	And also in many other countries around the world where people are willing to work.
	It will get better.
	But not in the United States.
	Prepare for extreme scarcity, supply chain chaos and disruptions, outages of the parts you need, and frankly, poverty, just widespread poverty and destitution across the United States, which will give rise to, of course, revolts and social chaos and who knows what's going to happen in the cities.
	But that's where we are.
	Thanks, Joe Biden, for giving us hell on earth.
	With your anti-energy policies and your pro-war policies and your censorship of free speech and so much more.
	The gifts that keep on giving.
	And if you keep voting for Democrats, you're going to keep getting it.
	That's for sure.
	All right.
	Thank you for listening.
	Mike Adams here, the Health Ranger, from brighteon.com and naturalnews.com.
	All right, I hope you enjoyed that special report.
	I've got a few more headlines to read for you here, and then we're going to go into today's interview, which is with Doug Thornton, also known as Wrecker, who has a warning about the collapse of U.S. cities and what he fears will be a coming era of civil war domestically and what that might look like.
	Now, in the interest of time, I don't have time.
	You probably don't want to wait through me analyzing all these headlines.
	But I want to read for you just a few of the headlines that are important, that are breaking.
	So you know there's a mass migrant invasion happening in Eagle Pass, Texas.
	And the governor has declared a state of emergency over that, which, you know, who cares?
	But now two Texas lawmakers are calling for a special session in Texas to bring the Congress back into session at the state level in order to pass legislation that would secure the border.
	And good for them.
	I mean, the border's wide open.
	This is a straight-up invasion of Texas and the United States.
	And at this point, it's so bad, it's so egregious, that anybody who doesn't do something about it is pretty much complicit in treason at this point.
	I mean, if you can't defend your border, you don't have a country.
	So something has got to be done.
	Now, related to that, here's a headline out of the Gateway Pundit.
	Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, remember this is the guy that wants government-run grocery stores all over Chicago.
	Yeah, genius idea.
	He's just signed a $29 million contract to build illegal immigrant camps across the city of Chicago.
	Yeah, for those of you in Chicago, you're going to get illegal migrant camps, like tent cities, all across the city.
	Your city's being taken over.
	So this $29 million contract is awarded to Garda World.
	That's the name of the company.
	This will cover six locations across Chicago.
	And each of these locations will hold between 200 and 1,400 illegals.
	These locations will include bedding, Laundry, showers, three meals a day, and security.
	What's it sound like?
	What's it sound like to you?
	Sounds like a concentration camp that's probably not going to be used just for illegals.
	Hmm?
	You get the picture?
	The illegals are here to take over your homes and your jobs.
	You're going to be put into the concentration camps and exterminated under communists like Johnson.
	I mean, that's not going to happen in red states.
	They're not going to get away with it, but they're going to try that in blue states and blue cities.
	So don't forget that this has happened after the state of Illinois.
	Has eliminated bail requirements for violent criminals, including kidnappers, rapists, burglars, what is it, arsonists, second degree murderers, and so on.
	You know, carjackers, thieves, whatever.
	No consequences for committing crime now across the entire state of Illinois.
	And then they're going to bring in thousands of illegals to start occupying the city of Chicago, which is already a war zone of mostly black-on-black gun violence.
	By the way, I hate that term, gun violence.
	It's black people killing black people using guns as a tool to do that.
	So it's people violence, not gun violence.
	But you get the idea.
	Chicago's a war zone.
	They're going to add to that thousands of illegals who are mostly military-age young men.
	How do you think this is going to go down when there's no consequences to committing crimes?
	Yeah, Chicago's going to collapse.
	I've seen people recently even asking questions and talking about, you know, which cities are going to collapse first in the United States?
	And some people think it's New York City first.
	Some people think it's Chicago.
	Some people think it's LA or San Francisco.
	I don't know the order, but I know they're all going to collapse.
	It's going to be...
	There are going to be no-go zones.
	Cops will not even function in these cities.
	They won't even try.
	It'll be a police no-go zone.
	These cities will collapse into worse than third-world conditions.
	There will be YouTube channels of people that fly drones over these cities just to document the rapes and the crime and the human trafficking and the murder that's taking place.
	It'll be far worse than scenes out of Escape from New York starring Kurt Russell in, what year was that, 1983 or something?
	I don't remember what year, 1981, I don't know.
	At the time, that was a scary movie.
	Like, they built a wall around New York City and they threw the criminals in there and then you had to try to escape.
	To get out.
	And it was imaginative for the early 80s, but it's nothing compared to what's about to happen in cities like Chicago.
	And they're literally just building cities or camps for illegals across the city.
	Using taxpayer money, no less.
	And, you know, by the way, just on a personal note, even though I am highly proficient in self-defense firearms, you know, rifles, pistols, shotguns, and I have, you know, a highly trained security dog, and I've got, you know, whatever tactical gear, night vision, and whatever, and ballistic vests, you know, from hoplite armor, and so on.
	Even though I've got the training and the gear, I would not Even with all that I know and all the skills that I have, I would never stay in Chicago.
	Because no matter how much gear you have and no matter how much training you have, and those of you listening who are in the military or retired from the military or law enforcement, you know what I'm talking about here.
	You can be overwhelmed By a group of people that very rapidly exceeds your ability to manage the situation.
	Even if you're freaking Rambo, okay?
	You can't out Rambo a lunatic mob of a hundred people that have surrounded your home and are setting it on fire.
	There's not much you can do.
	The minute you leave, they come at you.
	You can't shoot...
	A hundred people.
	A hundred zombies.
	Because this is not Hollywood.
	You need to, you know, instead of dealing with that scenario, you need to not be there when the purge begins.
	Just don't be there.
	Get out of the cities while you can.
	And it's great to have all that gear.
	It's great to have all the training.
	It's great to have the skills.
	I don't fear random criminals being able to do much to me because I can fight back and I can erect barriers, let's say, to them succeeding in their goals.
	I can make them rethink what they're doing there at that moment.
	Like, why did I end up on the Health Rangers Ranch?
	Why?
	As the bullets are whizzing by.
	Actually, I don't fire warning shots, so that probably wouldn't happen.
	But if I could get them to rethink some things by plugging them with 5.56 millimeter diameter holes, then, you know, that's part of my defense.
	And yeah, I'm willing to do that under the rule of law in the defense of life and property and to protect the innocent.
	But even with those skill sets and that mindset, I would never want to be stuck in Chicago.
	Even if you're heavily armed.
	Nor in LA, nor in Portland or Seattle or any of these places.
	You can be overrun.
	I mean, just ask Kyle Rittenhouse.
	I mean, Kyle Rittenhouse is pretty darn proficient in his AR-15.
	In the use of it.
	In fact, it saved his life.
	And the fact that he got off some of those shots was quite remarkable.
	It showed some real practice and proficiency in wielding that weapon in self-defense.
	And yet, he was on the ground in the street on his back fighting for his life against a mob of lunatic left-wing violent attackers.
	And he was very fortunate to be able to get out of that situation with his life intact.
	So don't roll the dice.
	Don't think, oh, I have an AR-15.
	It's fine.
	I can handle the city.
	No, you can't.
	Not when it all goes to crap.
	You can't handle it.
	No one can.
	Special Forces, Navy SEALs, they're leaving ahead of time.
	In fact, it's the Special Forces guys that are very good about avoiding conflict.
	Why?
	Because they've seen what happens when conflict sparks.
	If you are in a firefight, they'll be the first to tell you, you have made a series of bad decisions to end up in that situation.
	You should not be in a firefight.
	You should have made decisions and taken evasive action that got you out of that scenario so that you never ended up in that firefight.
	Ideally, that's the better battle plan, is to not have to exchange lead with somebody.
	Not to have to shoot people in your defense.
	You should get out.
	While you can.
	And by the way, our guest coming up here knows that as well as anyone or better than most.
	So let's go to that interview with Doug Thornton, known as Wrecker.
	He's done many interviews over the years with Dave Hodges.
	And this is my first interview with Wrecker since he came out with his full identity after leaving DHS, by the way.
	And what he's about to tell you here will absolutely make you think twice about where things are headed and whether you are prepared to handle those emerging situations.
	So give this a listen.
	And...
	Welcome to today's broadcast here on Brighteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon.
	And we've got a first-time guest here, but someone who has been in the orbit of many of our other guests for many years.
	And this man is an extraordinary person who has quite a story to tell about what he has seen and what he's doing now.
	His name is Doug Thornton.
	He's known as Wrecker.
	And he used to work with Homeland Security.
	And now he focuses on being a podcaster and a part-time minister, but what he sees coming for America should concern us all.
	So welcome to the show, Doug.
	It's been a while since we've spoken, a couple of years actually, but it's great to have you back on.
	How are you doing?
	I'm doing great, Mike.
	I'm doing great.
	You know, it's a pivotal moment of time in Americans' history.
	To be having this type of conversation.
	You know, in 1861, the first Civil War broke out, and many people saw that coming, but many people didn't know how to react to it.
	And now, once again, it seems that we're coming up on Civil War 2.0, as people like to say, and we all see it coming, and yet still people don't know how to react to it.
	And, you know, the bad part about that, Mike, is that it gives the government the advantage to take Yes.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Which is just one of the many cascading events.
	And I know we'll get into civil war, but let me ask you this.
	How close do you think we are?
	Because I get asked it all the time, but I love to ask the question back.
	How close do you see it?
	Yeah.
	Well, I'm not sure about how passive the American people are.
	And since my expertise is health and food contamination and toxins, I do know that the American people have been neurologically poisoned through a variety of vectors that are inhibiting Their ability to cognitively function and also to behaviorally respond to threats or stresses, even life and death threats.
	So, whereas, you know, you talk about the civil war in America, the people at that time were mentally healthier, physically more capable and spiritually stronger at that time than they are now.
	I see the American people, by and large, although there are many exceptions, such as you and I and our audience, but by and large, they are passive, they are brainwashed, they are malnourished but overfed.
	They are intoxicated through a variety of toxins, including deliberate toxins that are introduced into the food supply, hormonal toxins, gender-bender chemicals.
	They are indoctrinated, they are psychologically beaten.
	And they, I'm not sure if they are capable of even grasping what's happening even as they're on their, they're dying, you know, or even as they're being thrown into quarantine camps or shot, you know, kneeling over a ditch by the establishment that sends out soldiers to exterminate them.
	I think for many people, they cannot respond.
	So I don't know.
	I mean, that's my honest answer.
	I don't know if there are enough people who can respond to what's happening or what that might look like.
	Well, you know, I consider myself to be an amateur historian.
	And looking back into history, there's a great book.
	I forget the author, but the name of the book is called Ordinary Men.
	And it doesn't take a while for someone to go back to the 1930s.
	To start to look at the beginnings of the formation of the Nazi government, and there's a main key factor that actually helped the Nazi government really catapult itself above other tyrannical groups, and that was the Schustafel.
	What the SS did originally, and not many people are aware of this, you might be aware of this, but not many people are, but the Schustafel, the SS, was actually a law enforcement branch.
	It was a what you would consider federal law enforcement branch.
	The SS ended up taking over every aspect of intelligence gathering and law enforcement.
	And when they put everything underneath that one umbrella, they captured all elements of the government.
	And as people began to resist, you had to deal with the SS. Of course, we've heard all the horror stories from the SA, the stormtroopers who originally were used To scare people and to kill people and bully people, it was on the night of the broken glass when the SS was used to help finish off the SA and their 80-something higher-ups.
	And so then there were no more.
	But once the SS took over, you then start to had these things called concentration camps that were being built.
	About 12 million people were killed in these camps.
	Still today, people debate it, and I think that's a horrible thing that people debate this, but the thing that I view down on is law enforcement.
	That's what I was.
	That was my career, and so I look at this through the lens of a law enforcement officer.
	The first groups of people who were used to do the roundups were the local law enforcement and the National Guard.
	Now, that point in time, If you did not want to serve in the Wormach in the German military, you had to serve in the Order of Police.
	The Order of Police was the National Guard in ordinary parishes and sheriff's departments, your local police departments, if we're antiquating this to America, all thrown together.
	They took orders directly from the SS. And they were the ones who went into Poland.
	And this book, Ordinary Men, talks about it in gross detail.
	About one of the first times that the police were used to round people up.
	And there's a passage in this book, Mike, and I think the guy's a colonel or a lieutenant colonel.
	And they're heading to Poland.
	He tells us, guys, I don't know exactly where we're going, but I'll tell you what we're going to do when we get there.
	They get to the place where they're going to, and he gets everyone out of the truck, and he said, listen, draws a line in the sand.
	We have to take everyone from their homes, and if they resist, we kill them, and we're moving them into train cars and trucks, and they're being pushed off to these ghettos, the concentration camps and ghettos.
	And this is the pivotal moment that I have been preaching about to my guys when I was in federal law enforcement and so on, is that those men were given a moral and ethical decision line in the sand.
	And they were given a choice.
	If you don't want to do this, cross the line.
	If you want to do this, stand here with me.
	Not one person crossed the line.
	They all chose to go through with the beginnings of the atrocities that eventually became the horrific concentration camps and death camps.
	We can parallel that to today's law enforcement.
	I am not anti-law enforcement.
	I am very pro-law enforcement, but the right law enforcement.
	What we have now that has been established is a tyrannical form of injustice from the Department of Justice, and they use federal law enforcement and state and local law enforcement, whoever they can get to do their dirty work.
	And it has created a rift.
	We see this with January 6th.
	Look at what just happened with the Governor Whitmer case.
	Those two guys were completely exonerated, and the FBI is completely to blame for it, but they will never catch what they should have.
	This is one of many different things that are going to be cause and effect of a civil war here in America.
	If you'd like to move on to this conversation, go ahead.
	Yep.
	But you've spoken a lot about local sheriffs and police departments and so on.
	Is it fair to say, I'd like your assessment on this, the kind of people that you worked with, and I know that you were deployed to different cities to respond to, for example, Antifa terrorism attacks against government buildings, correct?
	Yes, sir.
	And against also federal officers who were being hit with green lasers and Molotov cocktails and their vehicles were being torched by Antifa and so on.
	What's the willingness among the kind of people that you served with to go along with a Holocaust?
	And how does that compare to, in your opinion, what would happen at various sheriff's operations, especially rural sheriffs in rural counties versus city police?
	Who's willing to go along with tyranny and a Holocaust and who's not willing to do so in your experience?
	I would like to say that most cops should be conservatives and constitutionalists because that's what we're here to do, is to protect the Constitution.
	The thin blue line is the guys who stand between the riots and the crowds, one size Republican, one size Democrat.
	The thin blue line is supposed to be the cops who stand on the Constitution, protect that, and we the people.
	But that's not so.
	And you have infiltrators from the top.
	And they have their guys who've worked their way from the bottom up.
	And I would say that the vast majority of law enforcement is there to do the job and to protect we the people.
	And I'm in the 90 percentile.
	But there's an eerie 10 percent that's at the very top somewhere in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere that is not on our side, that they admittedly are not on our side.
	And to include many in the intelligence agencies that are not on their side, and they're not going to like the fact that I'm talking about this, and that's okay.
	The average sheriff's department, Podunk Police Department, you have infiltrators there.
	And look, I'm going to say something that, you know, is probably going to be a stigmatism, but it doesn't take very much Googling to find out how many local law enforcement has been involved in child trafficking schemes.
	You cannot trust anyone just because they have a badge on.
	I mean, testing the spirits is what Christ told us to do, but we should be testing the spirits also and those who are given the extreme authority to protect and to take life.
	And there's not really a counterbalance to it anymore.
	We have this element of uncontrollability of people who choose how to protect and what to protect based off of who's running the office or if there's a D in front of their name or an R in front of their name.
	Law enforcement should be completely void of all politics.
	Right, right.
	All politics.
	Agreed.
	Well, and I'm sorry to interject, but there's another issue that I want to bring in here, and that's the fact that there's such an anti-police philosophy in the blue cities, and the Democrats, the city councils, and so on, and of course, active defunding of police operations.
	Isn't it true?
	And you're free to disagree with me, obviously, but I'm asking you, is it true that more of the ethical, honorable police are choosing to leave those cities on purpose, and And that they're being replaced by increasingly lax recruitment standards that are recruiting, for example, convicted felons to serve in those local police departments.
	And that there's a massive shift taking place.
	The good people are leaving.
	Is that a fair assessment?
	It was happening whenever we were in operations in Portland.
	We saw it all in Portland.
	And I think Portland...
	The Portland-Oregon riots in 2020, it left such an effect on my life that I no longer even really think about the three times that I've been to Iraq.
	Portland was so much worse in so many other ways.
	The amount, the unnecessary amount of Of shenanigans that happened from the local government, the state government, and then the federal government that was involved in Portland should let everyone in the country know that we are in serious trouble.
	A lot of the police force left.
	Their RRT team, who was like a sister unit to us.
	I was on the Rapid Protection Force team.
	That's our special response team that Homeland Security pushed out.
	I worked for the Federal Protective Service.
	And every single man and woman that I worked with is a veteran, loves this country, willing to die for this country.
	And we were out there, Mike, every night, sometimes 20-hour days, bringing the fight to Antifa, who are terrorists.
	They are openly satanic, openly satanic, openly communistic.
	And yet somehow or another...
	Veterans who continue to serve and protect we the people were then the ones who were targeted by the government and were then the ones targeted by media and said that we were the bad guys.
	So once again, here's another shift, this more growing animosity.
	You have people who don't trust law enforcement because of January 6th and the crap that the FBI has done.
	And granted, I agree with them.
	And then you have a group of law enforcement who does not trust the government but wants to continue to do the job to protect the people because someone needs to.
	When Kenosha burned, when I sat there and I watched Kenosha burn, I didn't know exactly how to talk about what I was seeing because I heard that the politicians were telling them not to respond.
	And I had seen this in other cases, especially in Portland, when politicians didn't let us do our job.
	And you know, Mike, I sat here and I asked myself, where in my chain of command is the mayor?
	Where in my chain of command is this politician telling me to go and not do my job?
	But yet, somehow or another, we just did what we were told.
	Now, I will say this in Operation in Portland.
	Diligent Valor 1 and 2 that we were involved in.
	We were at some points told to sit in a building at the immigration building that's on McAdam Street.
	That's where all the battlegrounds happened at.
	And we had to sit and wait for Antifa to set the building on fire before we could go out and make arrests, affect arrests.
	We had to wait for the building to be set on fire.
	I was the tactical commander at that point in time.
	Being told, this is what you shall do.
	And we had to sit there with our iPhones and film their smoke coming through the building, the doors on fire.
	Unbelievable.
	Oh, now we can go do our job.
	So eventually you have to ask yourself, how long are people going to continue to allow their cities to be burned?
	How long is it going to be until law enforcement says, listen, if the mayor tells us not to go and protect people, we're going to arrest the mayor because now the mayor is interfering with police operations.
	Who's going to have the guts to do that?
	It has to start with the sheriffs, with the police commanders.
	In these small towns, they have to recapture what we, the people, gave them the ability to do.
	Well, this is one of my questions, exactly.
	When is law enforcement going to actually arrest those committing treason domestically?
	Those mayors or even governors, I can imagine, that are clearly siding with terrorists and who are violating the Constitution.
	I want to continue that question, but let me plug your show and your website real quick.
	Folks, the website is AmericanVindictaShow.com.
	That's the name of your show, Doug, AmericanVindictaShow.com.
	.com is the website.
	Here it is.
	And can you give us a little bit of a description of where people can find your show and when it airs?
	Yeah, so the show is on GSradio.net from 6 to 7 p.m.
	Eastern time frame.
	We're on right before the Hagman show.
	And then also on Rumble and on YouTube.
	I just got another strike from YouTube.
	It seems like at least every three months I get a strike from YouTube for something.
	I'm surprised they even let you on there at all at this point.
	I'm shocked because I talk about whatever.
	It's, you know, Mike, by the grace of God, we are allowed to get on and we are allowed to preach the word of a living God.
	And it's by his protection that we're able to do what we're doing.
	But eventually they'll cut the cord on that and then we'll be on Rumble.
	And then eventually, like what you see right now, I can't remember what's his name, the former actor, the British actor.
	The entire UK Parliament is asking people to deplatform and demonetize him.
	Russell Brand.
	Russell Brand.
	It's over accusations.
	Accusations.
	Hunter Biden literally committed a felony.
	And for how many years?
	Nothing's been done about it.
	When we were in Portland, we had over 200 felonious arrests.
	Of assaults on officers, deadly weapons, Molotov cocktails, incendiary devices that the FBI would have to come out and declare that's what they are.
	And then you had millions of dollars of destruction on, you know, government property, private property, state property, and yet not...
	Not a prosecution made.
	Unbelievable.
	But this is the pattern that...
	My question to you here is going to be, at what point do sheriffs or local law enforcement or the people have to do something about this?
	For example, take the state of Illinois.
	So Illinois has just enacted now a no-bail, no-jail policy.
	You can carry out kidnappings.
	You can carry out second-degree murder.
	Arson, robbery, burglary, carjackings, whatever.
	You don't even go to jail.
	They just give you a ticket and you're released back onto the streets.
	We're talking about extreme violent criminals, in some cases stalking ex-girlfriends and threatening ex-girlfriends, things like that.
	And by the way, law enforcement in the state of Illinois sued over that law because even the cops said, this is crazy, and the Illinois Supreme Court ruled against the cops and said, no, it's perfectly okay to have criminals just let loose back on the streets.
	I mean, at some point, the people have to stop this.
	When is that point reached, in your view?
	What I'm afraid of is when we no longer have the ability to peaceably assemble, and we've exhausted all legal means, you're going to force people to do something, and you know they're going to.
	And you know that you're going to force them to.
	People have two options when they're forced to do something.
	You force someone into a wall, into a corner, like any animal, and they're going to do these two things.
	They're either going to capitulate, fall down, and comply.
	Or they're going to fight back.
	And by fight back, they are going to do everything in their power to see that you never push them back into a corner again.
	Was that not what 1776 was about?
	Was that not what everything that the American people used to stand for was about?
	But now we've accepted everything that is evil.
	We now call good evil and evil good.
	Prophecy fulfilled before our eyes.
	But when you take God and Jesus out of everything, these are the things that happen.
	God will give you over to a reprobate mind.
	He will give you over to the wills of your heart.
	You want to be evil?
	You want to live and escape from L.A., escape from New York movies?
	God will give it to you.
	He'll gladly give you Babylon.
	And that's what America is turning to.
	We have more protests over trans rights and we have less preachers going outside and surrounding an abortion clinic saying this needs to be shut down.
	It's unholy.
	It's satanic.
	But once again, these are many of the problems that are lining up for America's future.
	But look at the multi-year jail sentences handed down to these elderly women who blocked access to an abortion clinic, right?
	They're called terrorists.
	But drag queen pedophiles, groomers, child traffickers, arsonists, they're often just let off the hook.
	It's all about selective prosecution.
	And as you know, then this causes the public to lose all faith in the process, the judicial system, but also the law enforcement system.
	And the police, sadly, are stuck in the middle where they become weapons of selective enforcement of the establishment.
	And we know it.
	Yes.
	And we know it.
	We talk about it.
	Anyone who's a cop right now, don't tell me you don't talk about this.
	And if you're one of those guys who sticks his head in the sand and you just follow orders, you're a problem and you are the problem.
	You probably should go be a firefighter.
	When you are in the position of law enforcement I consider it to be a high honor, a very high honor.
	No one else has given the authority to take life.
	So, you know, I think these are some of the things we need.
	For one thing, we need godly men to stand back up and to get out from behind the computers, from, you know, off their couches, and to get involved in this.
	And, look, if you've got to surround the governor's house in a protest peacefully, Put your pencils down, FBI. Peacefully.
	Then that's what has to be done.
	Because we were given the First Amendment to redress our grievances to our government when they have wronged us.
	If you don't, then the government will continue to wrong you.
	But Hillary Clinton said something back in 2016.
	She said that the government has become too big to fail.
	And that is a monster that we now have to contend with because it is, at this point, too big to fail.
	It's no longer the government of we the people, by the people, for the people.
	It's bought and paid for by NGOs.
	It's bought and paid for by the global elite and by their dirty, dark money.
	And that is what we have to face.
	And there, I will say this.
	We cannot have another January 6th.
	January 6th was nothing more than Lucifer's snare that everyone walked right into.
	They knew what was going to happen.
	It just came out.
	They had so many informants that they lost count of how many informants they had.
	There was at least 80 undercover officers.
	I was on standby.
	Our team in Dallas was on standby to potentially go to the Capitol to help defend the Capitol.
	And from our eyes, we're viewing it, we're laughing our butts off.
	We're laughing.
	We see all the MAGA flags, and we're like, yeah, take that.
	That's how it feels whenever you have your freaking million-man army burning down cities with Black Lives Matter everywhere trying to change the history of America.
	But they took what you intended to be a good thing, and they turned it into an evil thing.
	I think 2020...
	It was designed in 2016 because they knew this was going to happen.
	So, 2024 was designed in 2020.
	And if we take that and we think about it, we're getting set up again.
	There's already intel going on that Antifa is going to start messing around again in October.
	We're coming up to this huge debt bubble and when it blows, your dollar may be worth nothing.
	I wanted to talk about that next anyway.
	Go ahead.
	So it's very clear.
	I mean, we just passed $33 trillion in federal debt.
	And if you count the obligations that are owed to the people through pensions and Social Security and so on, it's like, what, $190 trillion.
	This is never going to be payable.
	Either by accident or by deliberate acts, the dollar debt system is going to fail.
	You know that very well.
	Which means the banks are going to fail, which means people's savings are going to fail.
	Their pensions, okay, yeah, maybe you still get a pension check, but it can't buy a loaf of bread anymore when it used to pay rent, right?
	So when this happens, I'd like your assessment on what you think that's going to look like on the streets, because you've been on the streets.
	You've been in war zones in America, in Portland, and other places.
	What are the cities going to look like when the dollar collapses and people lose their life savings?
	Well, I mean, look at what the cities look like right now.
	I've always invited people who don't believe how bad the border is.
	I worked the border for quite a long time.
	And from El Paso to Eagle Pass is typically where I was at.
	And it's dangerous, man.
	It's super dangerous.
	You're in Texas.
	You know it's dangerous.
	Chicago's dangerous.
	New York's dangerous.
	Atlanta's dangerous.
	L.A.'s a war zone.
	New Mexico, Albuquerque has become nothing more than a clown show.
	Wait till the lights go out, man, because you can't pay for anything.
	Yeah, you know, Rhodesia reminds me a lot of that.
	Wait till the economy collapses and cops don't get paid to go out and protect anybody.
	Do you think they're going to show up?
	Nope.
	You think firefighters are going to show up?
	Would you go show up for free?
	Nope.
	You would stay home and protect your family.
	That's what every sane cop is going to do.
	We've talked about it.
	We've talked about these things.
	Yeah, we'll show up for probably three or four days, try and gather some intel, try and figure out what's going on, and if it doesn't get better, why am I showing up?
	Exactly.
	There's a hard conversation that Americans don't want to have.
	We live in this bubble of safety and security that's really non-existent.
	Because you are your own first responder.
	I'm the second responder.
	The firefighter's the third responder.
	And if you don't think like that, you're going to be caught in a very bad place.
	Now, when there is no responder, and it's just you...
	This is where it takes time to create these delicate relationships between the people and law enforcement, your local law enforcement, your sheriff, your police captains from your police departments.
	They have to have trust in you.
	You have to have trust in them that if everything goes down, the system is still there to support one another.
	Maybe not in the state, maybe not in the county, but the towns can still be there to support one another.
	Now, there will be many people I think one of the problems with the Prepper movement and the Second Amendment movement is that we've become
	so militant And everything is about the militia, and the militias have been completely taken over.
	Completely taken over.
	There's not a militia out there that I would trust.
	So what I've been telling people is that before it goes bad, form your own little group.
	Make sure that you are the asset and not a liability to yourself, to your family.
	And from there, we can recreate the We're not ready for that.
	We are hopefully, woefully not ready for that.
	Congress just announced, what was it, a couple months ago, they're finding more and more of our giant transformers with back doors from China to get into it, and there's no way to shut it off.
	Most of your medicine comes from China.
	Most of your clothing now and textiles, all the stuff that we import comes from China.
	I have a guy that is a new sponsor of mine.
	We're talking about tactical equipment and getting stuff made.
	And he said, do you know that if I wanted to get this one piece of gear here made in America, it would cost me tens of thousands of dollars to get it made when I could go to China and it would cost me $1,000 to get it made.
	We're already being defeated on the marketplace.
	And the BRICS nations will roll us over if we don't open up and start drilling oil again and bringing everything back home.
	But your microchips that you need for your military, for all your stuff that runs everything in America, that's not made here anymore.
	To your point, as Joe Biden has shut down domestic energy production in the United States, shutting down pipelines, exploration, refineries, fracking operations, and so on, and then just happened in the last 24 hours, Russia banned all diesel exports.
	And Saudi Arabia has cut back on energy production.
	So you've got the Saudis and Russia, two of the major energy producers in the world, now constricting the supply.
	At the same time that Joe Biden took away our energy independence and made us vulnerable to the actions of other state actors, like the Saudis, where we can't even produce enough energy domestically to run our economy.
	And also, by the way, as you know, the United States then destroyed the Nord Stream pipeline to cut off the energy supply to Germany, so that Germany's industry is in a state of absolute collapse right now.
	I mean, it is catastrophic.
	Western Europe will be lucky to survive the next couple of decades intact.
	It all seems quite deliberate, Doug, to take us down, to make us dependent on Russia and the Saudis while Joe Biden is claiming that Russia is the enemy or that China is the enemy.
	Well, why did you make us vulnerable to Russia and China?
	China's in control of our debt.
	China's in control of our product supply, the supply chains, air conditioning parts, automobile parts, a lot of microchips.
	Russia affects our energy prices and our fertilizer, food production, indirectly.
	So, Joe, why did you make us vulnerable to all that?
	They're doing it on purpose, obviously, right?
	Yeah, I think the word that we're waiting to hear is set up.
	We're being set up.
	We're being absolutely set up.
	Why do you think the borders stayed open?
	Yes, exactly.
	I so I was there when Donald Trump first started to put up the border wall in San Ysidro and in California at the San Ysidro port of entry when he had the first five or eight prototypes.
	And the one that we actually wanted looked like it could it could keep a Tyrannosaurus out.
	And that's not the one that they went with.
	But you know that that system would have worked.
	It would have worked good enough to stop a million-man army.
	Let me give you a little statistic.
	Let's see if our math can do anything alarming here.
	Since 2012, let's go with 2012.
	We've been getting an estimate of probably a million people, recorded a million people, coming across the border every year.
	Okay, so from 2012 to now.
	Now, what we catch and what we don't catch, on average, we times by three.
	So if we're going to be honest with ourselves, we're not catching three million people, but we're recording a million.
	So let's say, even so, we might be getting four million people crossing the border every year.
	For over 10 years, we're well past 40 million people.
	And you don't know the disease, though I do.
	You don't know the disease, you don't know the terrorists, though I do, and I could scare you right now with that, just those two things.
	And currently, you've been having the most amount of people coming across the border come from Venezuela, come from communist countries, communist countries.
	And these are all men of fighting age 16 to 55.
	You know, they're coming in large groups.
	When we were working the border, when we were assisting Border Patrol, we were out there snagging and bagging people and transporting people to all these soft-sided facilities where they would go and be housed at.
	And we caught 3,000 people in one day.
	And we're like, man, this is nuts.
	This is unsustainable.
	And I think there was like 20 of us.
	20 of us, right?
	And they won't hire more people.
	They won't build the border wall.
	They won't put forth the bills and laws that's already in the books to enforce the border.
	Oh, and by the way, come right in and we'll give you your first court hearing in six months, which it's backed up seven years, so see you in a decade.
	Well, yeah, and Mallorca is actually funding the camps, as you know, like the Darien Gap camps, San Vicente, Lajas Blancas camp in Panama.
	They're being funded by the United States as staging areas for the invasion, which continues on through Costa Rica and then northward, eventually getting to our border.
	I mean, our government is actively working against us, against the defense of the nation.
	Let me put forth a few things that's going on on the border.
	Some people might not be aware of, but if you're a Border Patrol officer, you probably know what I'm about to say.
	In San Ysidro, California, or at the San Ysidro Port of Entry, there is a nine-story deep tunnel that has an elevator to get to it.
	It goes out into a warehouse.
	It's just maybe 100 or 200 yards away from...
	Away from the fence.
	Nine stories.
	Congressmen will come and they'll go and take a tour down there.
	You're not allowed to go down there and see it, but the Congress can.
	They know it's there, but you don't know it's there.
	There are so many tunnels that we don't know how many tunnels, but we know for the most part that most of these tunnels and the way they get mined comes from the silver mines that are in Mexico.
	And The Sinaloa's in that area of Mexico, in their mines, they use miners to make these tunnels.
	And that's why we find the plastic mining explosives all the time with them.
	And so they make these tunnels and then they kill the miners.
	And then, you know, it's just another tunnel will be made next week if it gets found.
	It's a cat and mouse game.
	So in 2018, we're on a deployment to El Paso sector.
	And I remember our special agent briefed us that there was this – guys from Iran might have been one of the 12 Mahdis or whatever, the 12 Imams over there.
	And he said what we need to do is we need to get a young jihadi into Mexico, into Juarez, to the cartel.
	He gets funneled under – The border through a tunnel pops up into El Paso and releases enough ricin or anthrax to kill 300,000 people.
	And they all clapped, yay, what a cool plan.
	You're awesome, sir.
	And so, you know, the whole time we're there, you know, we are catching people that are not Mexican.
	They're from all over the world.
	Many of them, especially this one guy I caught, many of them are coming from the Middle East.
	And they disguise themselves to look like they're Hispanic.
	All right?
	You have no idea what kind of biological agents, contaminates, and chemical agents are coming across the border.
	But at our one point in time in 2018, this is when the Ebola outbreak had started.
	And there was over 16 different people that were found to have Ebola.
	And then I met this one poor guy from CDC running back and up the border.
	Back and forth.
	And he met us at the hospital.
	I talked to the hospital director.
	And we had three people in our custody that had this weird fungus-like growth on them that they had to continuously amputate anywhere this fungal growth was.
	And the moment it got into the blood system, you're dead.
	The moment it got into your bone marrow, you're dead.
	But all three people died in our custody, I think, within 24 hours.
	Wow.
	What the heck?
	No idea.
	No idea.
	The dude from CDC was scared.
	All right?
	Tuberculosis.
	You know how many times I sat in a vehicle, filled with people with tuberculosis?
	Yeah.
	All the time.
	I'm sure.
	You have people with polio, the vaccine-resistant polio.
	All these things are coming back in to an infantile-like situation.
	A system that is America because we have removed many of these very, you know, harmful diseases through inoculations, be they good or be they bad.
	And now they're coming back.
	So now you have a whole generation or two of people who've never experienced stuff like this.
	And so, you know, some of you thought COVID was bad.
	We had MERS, SARS, Marburg's disease, Ebola, the weird fungus stuff that came out of, I think it was the Colombian rainforest and then You know, polio, tuberculosis, the plague.
	We had people with the plague.
	And they all sit there in these waiting areas in Mexico.
	And this is just this big Petri dish that's just mixing itself together with the nastiest stuff you never know.
	Oh, and by the way, somewhere in here...
	This is where the, still, and they're still around, the extremist jihadists are being inserted and then pushed forth into America.
	Now, you're not kidding though.
	Let me just back that up because I've interviewed other sources and I've had a guy here in studio, not on camera, but confirming that just across the Texas border there are radiological dirty bomb explosive vests That are engineered in Iran,
	but the people, the volunteers are Afghani, and they're bringing them across the border disguised as Mexicans, and that they have lost track of numerous, again, explosive vests with radiological weapons.
	You know, like a walking dirty bomb suicide vest.
	Did you hear anything like that?
	I'm not surprised.
	They're very creative.
	They would put hand grenades on drones just for us to go and pick them up and then it'd explode the moment you pick it up, victim operated.
	For every 18-wheeler that is filled to the gills with weed or fentanyl or whatever, they'll gladly push that driver with that 18-wheeler right into Customs and Border Patrol checkpoints and then Drug dog sits on it and then we all show up, oh man, we're going to take it over to Area 51 and start ripping this thing apart.
	And it's a good fun time and it's a good training experience because these guys are creative where they hide stuff.
	And while you're so fixated on that, you never saw the truck 20 miles away driving right past the border.
	No one ever knew what was in it, the bodies that were in it.
	You don't know if a nuke is in it.
	I'm telling you right now, you have no idea what's in warehouses right across the border that can come straight over to here, matter of hours, have a big distraction on one side of the sector, and then just push this thing on the other side, and no one will ever know.
	No one's ever the wiser.
	Hundreds of family units across the freeway for us to go and chase down.
	And we watched the cartel sit there and laugh.
	One day, me and two cartels, me and two Border Patrol captains were sitting on the border at the sector, right on the line.
	And this coyote is on the other side.
	He's in Juarez.
	And he goes, hey!
	Smiles at us and, you know, what do you think we're thinking, man?
	If only he'd come over here, you know, I'd love to get my hands on him.
	And he does this with his radio.
	And he said, are you guys ready for another crowd?
	We could hear them on our radio.
	They got our comms.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	They have heavy machine guns, medium machine guns, light machine guns.
	They have mortar systems, 60mm mortar systems.
	They have rocket propelled grenade launchers.
	They have man pads that can shoot down a plane or a jet or any type of aircraft, helicopter, from 10,000 to 20,000 feet.
	We know that.
	So that's sitting on our border.
	You have a literal army Of insurgents on our border, operating all the time, a legitimate narco-terrorist state.
	And your government does nothing about it.
	That's right.
	But send $100 billion over to Ukraine to pick a war with a group of guys who keep telling us, and by the benevolence of God, we've not been nuked yet.
	But Putin keeps saying it.
	You keep coming over here.
	We're going to bring the fight to you.
	And we will win.
	And I do believe Putin.
	I believe Putin more than I do Biden.
	I can tell you that.
	I think the whole world agrees with you on that point.
	I mean, Biden has made America look just so embarrassingly weak and pathetic.
	How can we not find a leader who is cognitively capable of even walking on a stage without having a battle with the teleprompter?
	It's truly insane.
	Now, Doug, we're almost out of time here.
	I can't believe how quickly this has gone.
	I want to ask you to give us your final thoughts on this with one question to lead this off, and then I'll plug your show again before we go out.
	But do you think we have an election in 2024?
	Oh boy, I've been asked that a lot.
	This is my forethought.
	By 2024, if we're not in a civil war, I'm going to be shocked.
	By 2024, if we're not at world war, I'm going to be really shocked.
	Or these two things coincide together.
	I don't think they can allow Donald Trump, like him or not, to be president again.
	Because he started a revolution in the spirit, the rebellious spirit of the American patriot that they cannot allow to flourish.
	And if that man gets prosecuted and he can't run or they're imprisoned, they'll know that it will start something bad and they know people will get their guns and get mad about it.
	And likewise, if they kill them, the same thing will happen.
	So I see two things happening.
	I think, obviously, the election will be rigged, obviously.
	But they will take full advantage in their planning now for the day that they push Americans too far and Americans react with a violent reaction instead of thinking, instead of praying.
	They get into their pride and they get their guns and they say, we'll go do this ourselves.
	They're waiting for that day.
	That is the Fowler's snare.
	Be careful of that trap.
	That's what I tell people.
	Be careful of that trap.
	Wasn't the governor of New Mexico just testing that by trying to ban the Second Amendment in a couple of counties there?
	It sure does seem like it.
	Seems like it to me.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I think that was a test case.
	So you think the strategy is for the feds to intentionally go overboard to try to provoke this reaction?
	Well, I mean, it's not like the CIA hasn't done it before.
	Correct.
	Right.
	All over the world.
	Yeah.
	So, you know, why not do something that works?
	All you got to do is toy with people's emotions enough.
	Turn their kids into little transvestite terrorists and people come after you.
	You know, take away their constitutional rights.
	First Amendment, Second Amendment, Fourth Amendment, right to a speedy trial, you know, right to your jury appears.
	You eventually will push people into a corner.
	And they have two choices.
	Capitulate or fight back.
	And they're ready for the fight back.
	That's why I continue to say, you need to be more in the Spirit of the Lord now than you ever did.
	Right now.
	Right now is the time to repent.
	Right now is the time to get right with God.
	One of the worst and greatest tricks that Satan never taught anybody was that you have until tonight to repent.
	You don't.
	This is why we have to get right now.
	Because the devil will do everything in his power to get us to catapult ourselves into catastrophe.
	If we would just come out and pray as a nation and stop this madness, God would respond.
	That's what we need.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Amen to that.
	Pray as a nation, but not in these drag queen worshiping churches that are now emerging in Texas and elsewhere.
	Well, Folks, the website is AmericanVindictaShow.com, and our guest today has been Doug Thornton, also known as Wrecker.
	And I want to thank you, Doug, for joining us today.
	This has been truly enlightening and a little bit frightening, but I appreciate you coming here and speaking the truth.
	Thank you, Mike.
	Thank you very much for having me on, and God bless you and all the people who work there, and God bless everyone who's watching, guys.
	Appreciate it.
	Thank you so much, Doug.
	God bless you as well.
	And I'm really glad that you said people need to beware that you're going to be provoked by the government, but do not fall into that trap of responding with violence.
	That's exactly what the feds want.
	They want another insurrection stage so that they can declare everybody to be terrorists, and they can declare martial law and try to banish the Second Amendment nationwide, all kinds of horrible things.
	But thank you so much, Doug.
	It's been a pleasure.
	All right, take care.
	All right, folks.
	So that was Doug Thornton there.
	Wrecker, as he's known, he has, and he just scratched the surface, he has seen more firsthand than most of us will ever see in our lifetimes.
	And if you want to get more of that, check out his show, AmericanVindictaShow.com.
	And he's got a lot of wisdom to share with you about how we can still protect ourselves and save our constitutional republic if it is savable at all.
	But without God, without repentance, I don't think there's a chance.
	So the solution has to involve repentance and denouncing evil.
	And asking God to come in and help save this country from the evil that has taken over.
	But thank you for watching today.
	That's all the time we have.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of brighttown.com.
	And I appreciate you joining me today.
	You can repost this episode on other sites, other platforms and channels.
	Feel free to do so.
	Thank you for watching today.
	God bless America.
	Take care.
	Alright, I'm going to do something unusual for you today.
	I've got here the Ranger buckets from HealthRangerStore.com that so many people have invested in as a food supply.
	This is certified organic, laboratory verified, but I'm going to actually go through and open these and show you What's in them today and show you our dedication to the kind of packaging, the kind of secure packaging, and the quantity of what you get in here.
	This is just one of the, these are almonds in here, one of the types of packaging that we have.
	I want you to notice how secure it is.
	You know, you can...
	No, it's okay.
	Sit.
	I don't want my dog to get alerted by that.
	But you've got different nuts and seeds in the package, and then if you take off this lid, there we go, you've got these kinds of hard bricks of vacuum packed with the aid of nitrogen in this very rigid, rugged, thick material that prevents oxygen from oxidizing these products.
	So here we have black beans.
	Here we have lima beans.
	Here we have millet.
	And rice, again, all certified organic, all laboratory verified.
	We test them for heavy metals, we test them for pesticides such as, or herbicides like glyphosate, flax seeds here.
	We test them for microbiology to make sure that you're not getting E. coli, salmonella, yeast or mold.
	Here's red lentils, high protein, again, all certified organic.
	And in this pail, it makes it virtually rodent proof.
	So more of the smaller packages here, these tend to be nuts and seeds, and some butter powder.
	Now the ingredients vary based on what's actually available right now from the world supply of food.
	So you need to go to our website, healthrangerstore.com, to see what's actually in the buckets that are available right now.
	It can vary.
	But here's certified organic popcorn.
	Here's red beans.
	Here's quinoa.
	Here's some more small red beans, pinto beans, and oh, that might be palm sugar and cacao powder.
	It just depends.
	It varies based on what we have available, so you'll have to go there and check it.
	But look, this is what you get in a two-bucket set.
	It's a huge number of servings.
	It can feed a lot of people for an extended period of time.
	The actual statistics are on the website.
	If you want to know how many calories and how many servings, it's all right there at healthrangerstore.com.
	But, folks, this is built for long-term storage.
	This is no joke.
	Between the buckets that are very rugged and roadworthy, you can take these on the road.
	They can handle a certain amount of abuse.
	And the sealed packages that keep out oxygen and prevent oxidation, this is serious long-term preparedness.
	And then these can be used in hundreds of different recipes.
	And you can add things, like if you have availability of butter or even lard, if you're into animal products, you can add those other ingredients to various meals and soup mixes using these base ingredients.
	And then you can get your nutrition that way and you can make it through an extended period of societal failures, food shortages, famine, or even food inflation.
	All of these food items are going to go up in price as time goes on here because of the collapsing value of the dollar.
	And what that means is it's never going to be as affordable as it is right now.
	Food prices aren't going down.
	They're only going up.
	But this is a tremendous amount of food.
	And it's...
	When you cook it, of course, it expands because these are dried formats.
	So even here, as much as this is with the stacks and the pouches and everything, it looks like so much more when you actually cook it.
	So again, look at the website, healthrangerstore.com, search for Ranger Buckets, and if you don't need this much food or you just want one of these items, you can get what are called Mega Buckets or Mini Buckets that focus on just one or two materials.
	Alright, so here's an example of a mega bucket right here.
	This one contains only hard red wheat that is certified organic and lab tested as are all our products.
	But you can get these individual buckets that are dedicated to one item if you wish, if you just want more of one certain thing.
	And we have these number 10 cans here, by the way, of different products.
	This is a certified organic palm sugar, a low glycemic sweetener.
	And here's a number 10 can of just macadamia nuts.
	And even though these have plastic lids, they're sealed steel cans.
	So they're completely rodent proof with very long shelf life.
	They're very rugged and they're also easy to handle because of their size.
	And again, we have all kinds of different food items, whether it's nuts, seeds, grains, legumes, all kinds of things, including whey protein, powdered milk, things like that, available right now at healthrangerstore.com.
	If you're concerned at all about the availability of the food supply, then you absolutely want to check this out, because what we have is unmatched anywhere in the world.
	Nobody does as much laboratory testing for the cleanliness of their foods.
	As we do.
	Nobody in the world.
	And we do more testing than anybody.
	We have our own ISO accredited laboratory that we operate that is audited.
	It is inspected.
	And our whole facility is, by the way, certified organic USDA audited and inspected annually, if not more often, including kosher certification for most of these items as well.
	You can find all the details on our website, again, healthrangerstore.com.
	When you're looking for backup food supplies, this is your answer right here.
	We've got it.
	We've been making this for years.
	We ship ourselves out of our own warehouse, our own fulfillment center in Central Texas, and we're ready to deliver these products to you right now so that you can get prepared.
	And of course, every purchase helps support our network and our efforts here at Brighteon.com.
	So thank you for your support.
	I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
	And get prepared is all I can say for what's coming.
	Thank you again for your support.
	God bless you.
	God bless America.
	Take care.
	A global reset is coming.
	And that's why I've recorded a new nine-hour audiobook.
	It's called The Global Reset Survival Guide.
	You can download it for free by subscribing to the naturalnews.com email newsletter, which is also free.
	I'll describe how the monetary system fails.
	I also cover emergency medicine and first aid and what to buy to help you avoid infections.
	So download this guide.
	It's free.
