Welcome to Bright Town Broadcast News for Tuesday, May 14th, 2024.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you for joining me today as we are building the infrastructure of human freedom.
And of course, I've got some major announcements coming up.
I'm going to be...
I'm, of course, doing a live presentation this Friday at the Exit and Build Land Summit in Bastrop, Texas.
It's part of the John Bush organized event.
You can still get tickets in person, I think.
I don't know if they're all sold out.
But you can also get a pass to watch the whole thing remotely wherever you are.
The first day and a half are free.
Just go to naturalnews.com slash land summit.
And it is true.
I'm going to be giving a demonstration of something called light painting during this event.
This is something that none of you have ever seen me do.
Well, one reason is because the technology didn't exist until a few years ago.
But I'm going to be doing some light painting that will blow your mind.
The problem with the light painting is that it relies on the interaction between LEDs and the human retina Live, in person, and the light painting doesn't work that well through digital cameras and obviously over the internet.
So that's one reason to attend the event in person if you want to see something that will absolutely blow your mind.
Now, we've got a lot to cover today.
I've got a couple of special reports.
Before we get to all that, oh, I've got an interview with Clay Clark coming up today as well.
But I want to talk about Representative Thomas Massey.
Now, Thomas Massey is a representative from Kentucky.
And Thomas Massey is...
I mean, he wasn't even on my radar until recently.
And Thomas Massey is one of the few members of the U.S. House that's willing to take a stand for principles...
He's got four children.
I'm looking at his website right now.
ThomasMassie.com.
That's M-A-S-S-I-E. ThomasMassie.com is his website.
And he's taken a stand against sending more fiat currency printed money to Ukraine and to Israel.
And he's taken a stand against Israel's just outrageous genocidal bombing of civilians and It's not that Thomas Massey believes that U.S. allies shouldn't be capable of defending themselves, but what Israel is doing is not self-defense at this point.
It's genocide.
So Thomas Massey is under attack by the Israeli lobby in the United States called AIPAC, which operates outside the law.
They've never registered as a foreign agent, which is required under law.
Somehow they're immune to the law.
Again, Zionists seem to have absolute immunity to everything.
Netanyahu thinks he's immune to the International Criminal Court and the ICJ as well.
But Thomas Massey is being targeted by the Zionists.
And they're running $300,000 worth of ads to try to smear him before the upcoming election.
Thomas Massey, he's pro-life.
He's pro-Second Amendment.
He believes in defending the U.S. Constitution.
And he says the government has no right to be snooping without a warrant through your digital records and communications.
So he did not support the FISA warrantless searching on American citizens.
He's got a 97% lifetime score from FreedomWorks.
He's got a 100% score from the National Right to Life.
He's got A-plus on the Susan B. Anthony list.
A-plus from Gun Owners of America.
96% lifetime score from Liberty's score.
And Americans for Prosperity gives him a 93% lifetime score.
So, wow!
We need more people like this in Congress.
Northern Kentucky.
Representative Thomas Massey is just extraordinary.
And unlike Jim Jordan, Thomas Massey hasn't sold out to the Zionists.
I was very disappointed in Jim Jordan.
Just going all in with the Zionists.
But Thomas Massey is someone worth supporting, and I say that as a Texan.
Of course, in Texas, we like people from Kentucky and Tennessee and Oklahoma and all the conservative states.
But go to thomasmassey.com and consider giving this man a donation.
He's got a big donate button on the top right of his website, and you can donate there.
And by the way, I just recently learned Thomas Massey, he's, the guy's got patents.
I think he's an engineer.
I mean, this is a high IQ guy.
And normally people like this stay out of politics because politics is so ugly and dirty and filthy and just difficult to endure.
But this is a high IQ individual who also has high morals.
And that's very unusual.
Welcome to my show!
Who is a Democrat favorite.
You know, when the Democrats love you as Speaker of the House, you're probably betraying America.
And that's what Mike Johnson has done, sadly.
Remember Mike Johnson saying, not a dime for Ukraine until we resolve the border issue for America.
Remember that?
Well, that didn't last very long, did it?
You know, two weeks later, Mike Johnson's like, unlimited money!
Print, print, print!
The mad money machine!
And you're like, what happened to your principals?
Anyway, Thomas Massey, because he's a successful person outside of Congress, he doesn't need Congress.
He doesn't need to do the Nancy Pelosi-style insider trading where you go into Congress, poor, and then after 20 years or whatever, somehow you're worth $500 million.
It's all insider trading, which is legal for members of Congress to do because it's so damn corrupt.
Well, Thomas Massey is not one of those people.
He doesn't need Congress.
to engage in insider trading in Congress.
He's already a successful person.
This is what Congress was supposed to be, by the way.
It's supposed to be a part-time job for people all across America who were successful citizens and successful business owners.
And then they would go to Washington DC and they would do the business of the government and try to keep government small.
And then they would vote on a few things, whatever.
Oh, let's change the stamps, you know.
Pass new import tariffs, whatever.
And then they would go home, back to their communities, where they belong.
Instead, now, we have lifetime creatures of Washington, D.C., like Senator Lindsey Graham, and who else?
I mean, almost all of them.
Who's the turtle?
That guy, he's been there forever.
The turtle?
That's Mitch McConnell there.
And then the traitor, Mitt Romney.
It's like, between Mitch McConnell and Joe Biden, there's not one fully functioning brain there.
I mean, even combined, they're still lacking neurons.
But anyway, the point is, Thomas Massey is really emerging as a leader, a principled leader.
And I believe that because so many Americans are disillusioned after being betrayed by so many members of Congress, both in the House and the Senate, who made so many empty promises.
Oh, yeah, we're going to build the wall.
Oh, yeah, we're going to impeach Biden.
Oh, yeah, we're going to do this and do that.
And then all they ended up doing was printing money and handing out money to the military industrial complex and the genocidal Zionist lunatics in Israel.
That's all they ended up doing.
They didn't do jack for America, did they?
They didn't protect the border.
They didn't do anything for American veterans.
They've made America practically impossible to navigate for small businesses.
If you're a small business in America, you are dealing with an insane burden.
I mean, I can't even tell you the details, but we are dealing with some insane regulatory punitive decision against us right now that is just, even the attorneys we have working on it, Tell us blatantly, like they're screaming on the phone, this is so illegal for the government to do this.
We're like, yeah, tell us something we don't know.
They're like, they can't do this to you.
Well, they did.
Yeah.
You think we're being targeted?
Mm-hmm.
Of course we are.
Because we're speaking out.
And this is a sign of, of course, an Orwellian dystopian police state society.
That when you speak out, when you tell the truth, you get targeted by the government.
Right?
And yet, it's people like me and Thomas Massey and perhaps you listening to this.
It's people like us.
We are the entrepreneurs.
We are the people who create businesses.
We create ideas and wealth for nations.
And we're the ones who are kept suppressed and blacklisted and were attacked.
By, for example, the AIPAC lobby, which is attacking Thomas Massey.
And what a racket AIPAC is, too, by the way.
So the U.S. Congress gives billions of dollars to Israel.
Israel skims hundreds of millions off the top of that, sends it over to AIPAC in the U.S., and then AIPAC just hands that out as bribes to members of Congress to do what?
Keep voting for more billions for Israel.
I mean, this is classic RICO Act racketeering.
This is a criminal cartel.
It's an international money laundering ring.
If you did the same thing that Israel and AIPAC are doing, you would be arrested and go to jail for it.
Seriously.
If you ran around handing out cash and bribing members of Congress and the Senate to send you money to some foreign corporation or shell company, and then you skimmed off of that, put it back in your pockets, and used a portion of that to bribe members of Congress, you would go to jail!
But when the Zionists do it, oh, it's all okay.
What?
You don't want Israel to win?
Even Trump is under the Zionist spell right now, the Z spell.
Even Trump is like, I support Israel's right to win no matter what.
And then Lindsey Graham comes in, nuke Gaza!
Nukem, nukem Gaza!
And everybody's standing back like...
Senator Graham, have you lost your freaking mind?
Or are you too high on adrenochrome from all your gay escapades with whoever?
I don't know.
I don't even want to know.
But that dude does not represent the American people, that's for sure.
Anyway, the nice thing, the silver lining in this whole situation coming out of the Zionist insanity and the mass bribery and also the Zionist calls for mass censorship in America and pushing lawmakers like Representative Mills out of Florida to do insane things and put insane proposals forward.
I think, isn't he one of the ones that was calling for rounding up the students and taking them to Gaza and dropping them there?
If it wasn't him, it's someone like him.
But Representative Mills lost his mind.
But the laws they're trying to come up with here, like criminalize anything that's anti-Semitic, which means anybody who disagrees with Israel.
Wait a second.
You know, guess what?
Disagreeing with a foreign nation is a constitutionally protected form of speech.
That's what the First Amendment is all about.
Is to be able to criticize not only your own government, but also, of course, foreign governments.
And Israel is a foreign government, and it's not our greatest ally.
It's our most dangerous enemy.
Because Israel will drag us into World War III if we let them.
Now, speaking of World War III, check out this story from Fox News, which I rarely quote because Fox is, of course, part of the globalist cabal.
But this story has merit to Remember how I've said that some of my guests, in particular Steve Quayle, has sources that say that Iran already has nuclear weapons.
Now, if you listen to more mainstream commentators, let's say mainstream alternative media commentators, like Scott Ritter, for example.
Scott Ritter will say that Iran absolutely does not have nuclear weapons.
And by the way, I'm not attacking Scott Ritter.
He's done tremendous service to the world by trying to explain the geopolitical dynamics and what's happening with Russia and Ukraine and Israel and weapon systems and so on.
Scott Ritter is doing a great job getting the word out there.
What I'm saying, though, is that Scott Ritter...
believes that Iran does not have nuclear weapons.
And I think Colonel Douglas McGregor probably, although I haven't heard him say this directly, but I think he would say that it's not known that Iran has nuclear weapons.
You know, a lot of well-informed people, in other words, would say that Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons.
But here is an Iranian lawmaker saying that Iran has obtained nuclear bombs.
So, from Fox News, a firebrand Iranian lawmaker declared on Friday that the Islamic Republic of Iran, which I just shortened to Iran, possesses atomic weapons.
Here's what he says.
His name is Ahmad Bakshayesh Ardestani.
I'm sorry.
I'm not great at pronouncing these names.
Anyway...
Ahmad here says, in my opinion, we have achieved nuclear weapons, but we do not announce it, he says.
It means our policy, he's talking about Iran, is to possess nuclear bombs, but our declared policy is currently within the framework of the JCPOA. Whoa!
Whoa!
He said that on Roedad 24 That's, I guess, a news channel in Iran.
And this was covered by the Iran International Independent News Organization based out of London.
Okay, and that website is iranintl.com, in case you want to see that.
Now, the JCPOA, you need to understand the history of this.
The JCPOA... I believe it was put in place during Obama's years, and it's called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
In fact, I'm certain it was.
And this was the Iran nuclear deal, which at the time, and I forgot exactly what year this was, but it seems like it might have been 2013 or 2014, something like that.
At the time, I remember the mainstream media bragging that Obama had just done a deal with Iran that would make sure they never obtained nuclear weapons.
But if you look at the details of the deal, again, it's called the JCPOA.
If you look at the details, it was the opposite.
It was exactly the opposite of what the media was reporting.
It turned out that the deal actually allowed Iran to develop nuclear weapons and it funded the development of nuclear weapons.
And as part of this deal, Obama, he mandated that billions of dollars in cash be gathered from around the world, international money laundering and put onto pallets.
And then flown to Tehran on a U.S. cargo plane, which actually happened.
Now, and that money, some of that money was used to fund Iran's nuclear program.
Now, I'm going to look this up here just to make sure we get this right.
So it turns out it's 2015.
It was adopted on July 14th of 2015 after years of negotiations.
And it involves China, France, Russia, the UK, the US, and Germany with the European Union.
And the goal was to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
I mean, that's what's stated publicly.
But again, the details of it were exactly the opposite.
But what this plan achieved was releasing $100 billion in Iranian funds that had been frozen by the West, allowing Iran to essentially use that money for atomic weapons research, even though the JCPOA lays out that Iran is ending its weapons research into nuclear weapons.
Now, this may ring a bell in terms of seizing the money because this is exactly what the West did to Russia, seizing about $300 billion worth of Russian assets held mostly in European banks.
And that money continues to be seized by the West.
And EU leaders are trying to – well, they are.
They're redirecting the interest earned from that $300 billion, which is billions of dollars a year.
They're redirecting that to Ukraine to buy weapons to be used to kill Russians.
So if you're a nation in this world and you buy euros or dollars and put them in Western banks, those Western banks will steal your money, use the interest on your money to build weapons to kill you.
That's exactly what the West has done.
Well, Obama, who is a Muslim, let's be clear about this, and I've stated this for many years, Obama is a Muslim.
Not that there's anything wrong with being a Muslim, it's just that he always tried to hide it.
Pretended like he was a Christian and, you know, pretended that he wasn't gay also, by the way.
So he's actually Muslim and he worked under the table to try to help Iran obtain nuclear weapons, in my opinion.
And he did this through a number of means.
One of them was allowing Iran to capture a U.S. drone.
And it was publicly stated that that capture was a GPS spoofing attack by Iranian engineers.
That was a cover story.
In fact, there were traders inside the U.S. military working with Obama on a secret mission to fly and land a U.S. drone, I think it was a Reaper drone, to land it at the airport in Tehran.
To hand over this drone technology to Iran.
Since then, Iran, of course, reverse engineered US drone technology, including the encrypted satellite comms communication systems.
And this has enabled Iran to build its own drone factories that are now being used in part by Russia.
In order to, you know, fight the war in Ukraine.
So again, Obama released funds and had technology handed over to Iran.
There were also two naval boats that Obama allowed to be captured by Iran.
That also happened to hand over naval boat communications and encryption technology.
And remember that Iran has very capable engineers.
The Iranian people are very high IQ people.
I mean, think about it.
Modern-day Iran, Persia.
It was the cradle of civilization at one point, at least that region, including parts of modern-day Iraq, of course.
But there's the cradle of civilization, the origins of math and agriculture and the early sciences and so on.
It all started right there.
So don't think that these people aren't capable of reverse engineering advanced technology and then harnessing it and then building their own tech, leapfrogging forward because of the tech they captured because Obama had it sent to them.
So Obama sends Iran $100 billion in frozen funds, releases the funds, and then sends Iran drone technology.
And then from there, it's my understanding that Iran took its nuclear weapons program deep underground, both literally building weapons hundreds of meters below the surface of the earth probably, but also politically. both literally building weapons hundreds of meters below the surface
We're talking about isolating the engineers from the rest of the world permanently, like having Iranian nuclear engineers that actually live in bunkers underground and never surface and never interact with society.
There is a super secret Iranian nuclear weapons program is, again, my understanding.
I can't prove it, but this is what I believe to be true.
That has been under development using that money that Obama handed over to Iran.
As a result, I believe that Iran has multiple nuclear warheads right now.
And what we saw recently with Iran, its retaliation against Israel, remember the Israeli attack?
I think it was the April 1st attack on the Iranian consulate building in Damascus, Syria.
And then two weeks later, right around April 14th or so, I believe, Iran then launched its 300 plus drones and low tech missiles to deplete Israel's Iron Dome munitions supply, which Iran did quite effectively.
In addition to that, Iran fired something like six or seven guided ballistic precision missiles, hit a military base in Israel with such precision that it took out a bunch of Mossad agents, and it also sent a signal to Israel, which is that Iran can strike you at any time, anywhere, and there's nothing that your Iron Dome can do to stop it.
So I believe that right now, not only does Iran have the delivery system to obviously deliver precision ballistic missile strikes anywhere in Israel, and Iran has enormous numbers of these missiles that are stored deep underground beyond the reach and Iran has enormous numbers of these missiles that are stored deep underground beyond the reach of even nuclear weapons from Iran also has its own nuclear warheads.
That could be used to completely wipe out Israel.
Now, over the years, of course, Iran's nuclear weapons program and uranium enrichment efforts have suffered extreme setbacks, notably from the Stuxnet virus, which was created by a joint program between Mossad and the NSA. And the Stuxnet virus was one of the early viruses that infected Iran.
Millions of computers worldwide just to get onto laptops of some engineers who worked at this uranium enrichment facility in Iran.
And that virus, which was a very highly technical virus with a payload that would seize control over a specific brand of centrifuge equipment.
And that's what it did.
And it caused the destruction of the centrifuges, and it set back Iran's nuclear program by several years at the time.
But that was many years ago.
Since then, Iran has been able to recover from that, and they have enough nuclear material now to build probably dozens of warheads.
Now, what's interesting is that Ardistani He said, quote, In a climate where Russia has attacked Ukraine,
he says, and Israel has attacked Gaza, and Iran is a staunch supporter of the resistance front, it is natural for the containment system to require that Iran possess nuclear bombs.
However, whether Iran declares it is another matter.
Doesn't leave much to the imagination, does it?
In other words, he's saying, yes, Iran has nuclear weapons, but Iran's not talking about it publicly.
That's exactly the situation.
This guy is just spilling all the beans.
Now, something else interesting is that two days before these comments were made, there's another Iranian who was on the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations.
His name is Kamal Karazi, and he spoke to Al Jazeera in Qatar.
And he said that Iran had the absorptive capacity and the capability to produce a nuclear bomb and that Iran still has that capability but we have not made the decision to produce a nuclear bomb.
However, if the Iranian interests are threatened in this manner, we may change this doctrine.
The military officials in Iran have announced that if our nuclear facilities would be attacked...
We may change our military doctrine with regard to the nuclear facilities.
So, my assessment of this is as follows.
Iran has all the components of nuclear bombs.
It's got the fuel, it's got the shape charges, it's got the electronics, it's got the containment vessel, everything that's needed to make a nuclear bomb.
Atomic bomb.
It's not a thermonuclear bomb.
It's sort of like the early atomic bombs.
But hey, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, those can be very devastating, right?
So Iran has all the components to make nuclear bombs, maybe just sitting on opposite sides of the same room.
Like over there, maybe it's a giant hall.
Over there on the right-hand side, that's all the nuclear material.
Over there on the left...
That's all the electronics.
And there in the back room, that's all the kinetic charges.
So they can say, well, publicly, we swear we don't have nuclear weapons.
And then they would have nuclear weapons.
And how long does it take to put them together?
You know, I don't know.
They pull out the instruction manual.
This is some assembly required, but it's all in Iranian, so I have no idea how long it takes.
But they're probably like, okay, you're going to need a screwdriver, a drill, a flashlight, and A pair of pliers, you know, you run around the room, you put all this stuff together.
No, seriously, they can probably just put this together in a matter of a few days.
So they could be honestly stating we don't have nuclear weapons at the moment, but we have everything we need to put them together.
It reminds me of the ATF and SBRs, short-barreled rifles.
You can buy a 9-inch barrel for an AR-15.
And you can buy a stock for an AR-15, like a shoulder stock.
And you can buy a lower receiver through an FFL. And you can have all those parts laying around.
And technically, you don't have a short-barreled rifle.
But...
those parts, and then you would have an SBR, which requires you to file the intention to have an SBR, and you're supposed to get a tax stamp, apply to the ATF, pay $200 and get permission from them before you finish building it, right?
Right.
But I'm not sure how that works.
I've never built an SBR. I have no such intention.
But apparently you're supposed to take a picture of it when you send it to the ATF, which is kind of like admitting that you already built it.
So it's kind of like to get permission from the ATF, you have to admit you already violated the law or something.
That's why I don't build SBRs.
That's why I don't have any SBRs, by the way.
I have pistols and I have rifles.
And in my gun safe, they are very distinct.
You can tell the difference.
There's no like wishy-washy Frankenstein guns that, oh, this has a really short barrel, but it's got a stock and it's got like a full auto trigger.
No, no, no.
But anyway, Iran doesn't have to deal with the ATF. Iran's just like, we can put this together anytime we want.
Thank you, Obama, for giving us the money and the technology.
It's awesome.
So then, consider this headline.
This is from February of 2023, over a year ago, and it's from Reuters.
Here's the headline.
Iran can make fissile material for a bomb in about 12 days, says a U.S. official.
That was from, what, a top U.S. Defense Department official.
He, at the time, he was the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy, colon Kahl.
Kahl, K-A-H-L. And he was talking about the JCPOA. And here's what he says.
Because Iran's nuclear progress since we left the JCPOA has been remarkable, back in 2018, when the previous administration decided to leave the JCPOA, it would have taken Iran about 12 months to produce one bomb's worth of fissile material.
Now it would take about 12 days, he says.
That was in 2023.
More than 12 days have gone by since then.
So, Donald Trump pulled out of the JCPOA in 2018.
And probably he did that.
I don't have any inside baseball on this, but my guess is he did that because he knew it was theater.
He knew that it was actually an Obama program to give Iran both money and technology to build nuclear weapons more quickly.
Because Obama, in my opinion, Obama actually wants to see not only America destroyed, but also he wants to see Israel destroyed.
And he knows that the best way to achieve that is to put nuclear weapons into the hands of Iran, which is exactly what we're talking about here.
So anyway, Donald Trump pulled out in 2018.
When he did that, he reimposed sanctions on Iran because, of course, the U.S. believes it has dollar hegemony, which it did have for a long time, but that's fading now.
And then, according to Reuters, quote, leading Tehran to resume previously banned nuclear work and reviving U.S. and European and Israeli fears that Iran may seek an atomic bomb.
And then it says the Biden administration has tried but failed to revive the pact over the last two years.
Basically what Reuters is saying, take it or leave it, I don't trust Reuters, but they're saying that because Trump pulled out of the JCPOA, Iran then began to accelerate its nuclear weapons development program.
Well, it's been six years since the JCPOA has been yanked.
And this Defense Department guy said they could make a bomb in 12 days.
You know, enough fissile material.
So let's do the math.
Let's see.
Hmm.
Six years times 365 days.
What is that?
That's 2,190 days divided by 12 days per bomb.
So Iran could have 182 and a half nuclear bombs.
According to this U.S. Department of Defense official, 182 nuclear bombs.
Now, Israel is believed to have as many as 400 nuclear weapons of various sizes, most of them quite small, so-called tactical nuclear weapons.
Some of them, I think, are even artillery rounds, nuclear artillery, that are even smaller than Hiroshima, which was about 16 kilotons, by the way.
What's the power of the Iranian nuclear weapons?
I don't know, but Israel is a very small country.
If you have 182 nukes, and Iran just proved they can deliver precision missiles on target through the Iron Dome, through David's sling, through the Patriot batteries, everything, and they can hit targets in Israel, how many Hiroshima-sized atomic bombs do you need to decimate Israel if you're Iran?
And the answer is, not that many.
Like, four?
I mean, you know, you hit Tel Aviv, a couple other cities, and it's done.
It's done.
So I believe that right now, we are in a situation where Iran has potentially, easily more than 100 nuclear weapons.
They have the ability to deliver them.
And yet, Israel keeps poking Iran.
Poking them to try to get them to attack.
Because Israel wants to drag the US into the war with Iran.
And if the US goes to war with Iran, which is what Senator Lindsey Graham wants the US to do, do you realize that US soldiers will be bombed with Iranian nuclear weapons that were funded by Obama and built on technology that was transferred to Iran in part by Obama?
Or military agents working under Obama?
You realize that?
Now, I understand that Iran has a lot of technology transfer from Russia.
I'm not discounting that.
But there was also US weapons technology transfer to Iran and a lot of money transfer to Iran that allowed it to rapidly accelerate its nuclear weapons development program.
So, if the US goes to war for Israel...
To fight Iran, U.S. soldiers will bleed and die at the hands of weapons funded and developed using U.S. money and U.S. technology.
Or I should say U.S. released money, which technically was originally Iran's money to begin with, but the U.S. released it and then transferred technology to Iran.
So think about that.
You want to send our boys overseas to die at the hands of essentially U.S. weapons that are now in the hands of Iran?
Now, Iran, with its missile and rocket strike on Israel in April, did establish deterrence.
In fact, someone argued deterrence dominance in the region, which means that Iran was able to display sufficient proficiency to Even though the media didn't cover this accurately because most of the media people are ignorant morons who don't understand anything about weapons or geopolitics.
But for those who know what's going on with weapon systems and defense systems and anti-air interdiction systems by Israel, they know that Iran has just established both offensive dominance and And then, effectively, deterrence dominance because if Israel begins to strike Iran now, Iran will immediately retaliate with overwhelming force.
And it can do so, and it has already demonstrated that it can do so.
Now, here's the thing.
Here's what's really interesting about this.
Well, actually, a little bit scary.
Let me ask you this.
So, most of the world believes that Iran does not have nuclear weapons.
Israel's defense systems, which are provided mostly by the U.S., they can track incoming missiles.
They've got radar, and there's also satellite systems, and everything that Iran shoots over or flies over, like I call them air mopeds, the little low-tech drones with little gasoline propeller engines, just barely making it through the sky.
That's all tracked.
Iran also has ballistic missiles, and it's believed that Iran has hypersonic missiles.
Now, they're all tracked, but here's the question to you.
The U.S. and Israeli tracking systems that can detect inbound missiles, I ask you this, can they detect whether those missiles are nuclear or not?
In other words, can they detect what's in the warheads of those missiles?
The answer, my friends, is no.
There is no technology to remotely detect what's in the nose cone of that missile.
No such technology exists.
And since most of the world believes that Iran does not have nuclear weapons, and Iran has done a great job hiding the fact that it has nuclear weapons, then Iran could simply wait for the next Israeli attack.
And then Iran could launch its predictable retaliation strike against Israel, kind of like what it already did mid-April.
But instead of launching precision ballistic missiles with kinetic warheads, Iran could equip them with nuclear warheads.
And in doing this, it could achieve a surprise nuclear attack attack.
On Israel that would absolutely devastate Israel and it would probably destroy Israel's ability to even respond.
And if you're Iran, you're probably thinking about this right now.
You're probably thinking, hey, this appears to be an existential threat.
Israel is destroying Gaza.
The West Bank is threatening its neighbors.
Israel's backed by the U.S., which is a warmongering empire.
And U.S. senators like crazy Lindsey Graham are calling for bombing Iran.
So if you're a leader in Iran, you're probably thinking that, you know what, we have a unique opportunity here, from their point of view, to carry out a sneak attack, a surprise nuclear attack on Israel.
And here's the question.
Who would retaliate if Iran carried that out and devastated Israel's ability to launch any missiles in response?
Who would retaliate against Iran?
And the answer is probably no one.
The U.S. couldn't retaliate with nuclear missiles because that would bring in Russia.
And Russia has hypersonic Kinzhal missiles that can carry nuclear warheads that can sink U.S. aircraft carriers.
And if the U.S. loses aircraft carriers due to nuclear missiles, that would encourage China to start attacking Taiwan and just, you know, sweep through the Pacific region and destroy all the remaining U.S. naval vessels using its own hypersonic missiles, by the way.
You know, the U.S. Navy is kind of like a house of cards.
It's war theater.
In fact, I have a special report on that I recorded earlier.
And it's called War Theater, U.S. Aircraft Carriers and the Illusion of Global Dominance.
So let's play that report right now and then we'll continue on the other side.
Let's talk about war theater.
China ran simulations back in 2023, looking at how it might be possible to sink aircraft carriers, specifically because the U.S. has currently 11 operational aircraft carriers.
Representing more aircraft carriers than all the other nations combined.
And the aircraft carrier has been the primary method by which the US military has projected force around the world.
The US to function as an imperial nation to enforce essentially its dollar hegemony.
If you tried to sell oil in something other than dollars, guess what?
You got bombed.
You got bombed from bombers on planes that were launched from aircraft carriers, among other things.
And if you don't believe me, just ask Qaddafi.
Oh wait, he's dead.
Ask the people of Libya, ask the people of Iraq, you know, on and on.
So many examples.
The aircraft carrier has been the main vehicle of projection of power.
Well, China found out that they could sink a U.S. aircraft carrier using just two dozen hypersonic missiles.
That's all it takes.
Now, hypersonic missiles, of course, by definition, move faster than the speed of sound.
And China has hypersonic missiles that actually move at something greater than Mach 9, so more than nine times the speed of sound.
It's rumored that Russia has hypersonics that travel up to Mach 18, you know, double the Mach 9.
It seems incredible.
We don't know the exact numbers, but there are rumors.
Nevertheless, a modern aircraft carrier has, of course, defenses, and it has other ships with it that have defenses, but none of those defenses can stop two dozen hypersonic missiles, especially moving at Mach 9.
And those hypersonic missiles don't even need to be nuclear in terms of their warheads.
They can just be kinetic warheads.
So essentially China is talking about a swarm of hypersonic missiles with traditional kinetic warheads that could overwhelm the defenses of an aircraft carrier and its surrounding defensive shield ships and then sink the carrier.
Now again, the US has 11 carriers.
I don't know how many are in the Pacific, you know, the far Pacific waters right now.
I think a couple of them are in the Mediterranean or near the Red Sea at the moment because of the situation with Israel.
Anyway, there's public sites where you can track their current locations.
But China, if it wants to initiate a war with America...
China realizes that naval power is America's key asset for defending Taiwan and for harassing China.
So the very first thing China would do would be to sink US aircraft carriers.
It turns out that's not very difficult.
Again, just takes a couple of dozen hypersonic missiles.
Now, the U.S. has zero hypersonic missiles that are functional.
It abandoned its hypersonic missile program.
We reported that last year.
There are efforts on a way to try to relaunch a hypersonic development program in the U.S. military.
But of course, since the military is woke, they won't hire competent engineers to engage in that.
They will have a bunch of woke people, just woke idiots who don't know engineering or math or design because they floated through college just based on their wokeness or being a transgender or being the right skin color or being a Native American or whatever they claimed.
Then they didn't have to actually perform as a student.
They didn't have to pass any tests.
They didn't have to do any math.
So those are the engineers now in the woke military, and that's why U.S. missiles don't work.
That's also why U.S. nuclear missiles very likely don't work either, which is a whole different story.
But the U.S. doesn't have hypersonic missiles.
Russia and China do, and Russia has been using them very effectively, by the way, in its war with Ukraine.
And those are the Kinzhal missiles that Russia has been using, and they have found their targets many times over.
Now there was a time when the U.S. aircraft carrier was impenetrable.
It was sort of like the floating version of an armored knight back in the 15th century or whenever.
But today it's very different.
It's vulnerable.
It's not immune to being taken down.
And this is one reason why the U.S. is pulling aircraft carriers out of areas where it is likely to be targeted and potentially damaged or destroyed.
For example, Hezbollah also has anti-ship missiles.
Now, I have no question that the U.S. Navy can handle Hezbollah attacks on ships, and it can probably defend itself against missile attacks by the Yemen Houthi rebels there in Yemen.
But there are rumors that even in Yemen, the rebels may have been able to obtain hypersonic missiles, maybe just one, maybe a couple, and that's probably not enough to take down a US aircraft carrier, but it presents a risk.
And the thing about aircraft carriers, and frankly the entire US Navy, is that it's military theater.
It's designed to create the impression of an undefeatable force, just overwhelming force.
We're going to sail this aircraft carrier right by your shoreline and we're going to intimidate you with this.
We're going to do whatever we want.
But the minute one aircraft carrier is destroyed, well, that facade vanishes.
The theater collapses.
And then you're left with a global realization that the US Navy can be defeated.
And that's the scenario that the US is desperately trying to avoid.
So they're going to use aircraft carriers and destroyers and other ships in a way to try to intimidate as many parties as possible without actually entering any conflict.
Because the minute they enter actual conflict, For example, if an aircraft carrier is within missile-striking range of Iran, well, Iran can probably overwhelm an aircraft carrier and sink it.
China certainly can.
Russia absolutely can, with its hypersonics.
So the U.S. is trying to avoid that in order to avoid the collapse of the fear factor.
If you think about it, the U.S. empire exerts its power through fear, its intimidation.
To run around the world as a bully and say, do what we say or else we'll bomb you or we'll assassinate you or we'll start a revolution with the CIA. Or we'll sanction you with our all-powerful dollars.
But all of those tactics are beginning to fail.
For example, Russia was heavily sanctioned.
Russia was cut off from the Western SWIFT financial system.
And Western banks stole as much as $300 billion of Russian assets that were held in dollars, mostly, and euros to some extent, in European banks.
Well, what's the message to Russia now, since Russia wasn't destroyed by that?
Russia only became stronger, and Russia will never trust Western banks again.
Russia will never buy euros or dollars ever again.
And neither will about a hundred other countries around the world that watch all of this and realize that Western banks are dishonest.
That if you deposit assets in Western banks or central banks, they will just steal it if they don't like what you're doing.
And these are all weapons of the imperial force, you know, the empire, the U.S. empire.
It's, hey, we're going to bomb you, we're going to intimidate you with our naval vessels, we're going to fly drones over your airspace, we're going to surveil you with our satellites, we're going to sanction you with our dollars, and we're going to use propaganda and censorship in order to coerce you to get what we want.
But again, all of those methods are beginning to fail.
So drone warfare and hypersonic missile warfare changes everything.
It makes aircraft carriers and most naval vessels utterly obsolete.
A typical US aircraft carrier has about 5,000 sailors.
It's also nuclear powered.
There are dual redundant nuclear power plants on each aircraft carrier so that it doesn't have to refuel.
You know, for 25 years, by the way.
That's how long the nuke fuel lasts.
So it could just turn around the oceans for 25 years as long as they can get food and spare parts and grease and whatever, ammunition.
Then they could just tour the world's oceans.
And that's why these aircraft carriers cost billions of dollars to build, by the way.
Very expensive pieces of machinery.
Well, drone warfare and hypersonic missile warfare makes all of that obsolete, and Russia has proved this on land.
By using drones and also the glide bombs to great effect in its war with Ukraine.
And Russia is proving that tanks are largely obsolete because a $10 million tank can be taken out by a much lower cost drone, maybe a $100,000 drone.
I don't know what they cost exactly.
I'm talking about like the Lancet 3 drones that Russia produces.
They're not nearly as expensive as a tank.
And they're a lot more mobile.
And with AI programming and visual recognition and all kinds of interesting algorithms, they can be programmed to engage in swarm behavior, and they can swarm a vehicle's defenses, and they can come in at different angles, all coordinating simultaneous arrival.
Now, Russia's investing in more drone technology and more drone manufacturing capacity.
While China is, of course, ramping up its manufacturing of hypersonic missiles, as well as its own drones.
China's the leader in drones worldwide, at least in sort of prosumer drones.
But Russia is also a leader in robotic AI land-based autonomous military vehicles.
And a few months ago, it demonstrated little, I don't know what you call them, like mini tanks that are all AI-driven.
And they can choose targets, they can destroy targets, they can move and maneuver.
And they do all of this on their own, even without communication from the outside.
And of course, China is working on humanoid robots and they're building massive humanoid robot factories to be able to churn out over a million humanoid robots every year.
And those robots...
As power systems get upgraded and AI systems get upgraded, they will be able to do things like carry rocket launchers, carry grenades, carry rifles, carry sighting systems, or just carry cargo baggage, carry stuff for the soldiers to give the soldiers improved range and endurance.
So you're going to see AI systems on the battlefield.
Now, where is the U.S. on AI systems?
The U.S. is behind China, for sure, and very likely behind Russia.
And why?
Same reason I mentioned before.
Because U.S. corporations are woke.
They're all being engineered by woke-tards.
And that is the appropriate term in this case.
Woke-tards...
Are people who are incompetent, but they're woke, and they're chosen for their positions because of their wokeness.
And since they're the ones that are given all the top jobs now, running the projects, designing the missiles, you know, building systems, running logistics, you name it, all those systems will fail in the West because, you know, get woke, go broke.
When you're woke, your stuff doesn't work.
Russia's not woke.
China's not woke.
And China has eclipsed America's capabilities in manufacturing, in AI, in the sciences, in physics, in almost every area that you can imagine.
They're just dwarfing the U.S. And Russia has very capable, highly intelligent engineers, mechanical engineers, aeronautical engineers, Physics experts, you know, rocketry, propellant, nuclear engineers,
you name it, and they put all that together to make nuclear-powered cruise missiles that can just fly around for actual months, just flying around for months at high altitude waiting to be given orders of which target to strike.
Loitering cruise missiles.
Russia's got that technology because they're powered by an onboard nuclear engine that somehow achieves propulsion.
I'm not even sure how that works, but they've got it.
So to summarize, the U.S. dollar currency is about to become obsolete.
The U.S. war machine is already largely obsolete.
U.S. industry has all but collapsed, can't really output much of anything.
U.S. elections are a rigged joke.
The U.S. court system is a joke.
It's a clown show of corruption.
I mean, look at what they're doing to Trump right now and the J6 protesters and so on.
The U.S. is collapsing.
Western Europe is collapsing.
Canada is collapsing in different ways.
While the future of the world belongs to China and Russia and Iran and India, and it's abundantly obvious.
This isn't an opinion.
This is just the way it is.
Empires rise and fall.
The U.S. empire is in its falling, waning stage.
This is it.
It was dominant after World War II for generations.
It ruled the world and it ruled the high seas.
Those days are done.
And you're watching the fall of the U.S. Empire, which is what makes the U.S. Empire so dangerous and so desperate.
Because nobody wants to, you know, just fall and lose power, so they're going to try to hold on to power in any way they can.
The future belongs to China, Russia, India, and Iran.
And other countries, BRICS nations basically, who choose to participate in an honest money system, they're going to experience all kinds of abundance.
Abundance through trade, through wealth preservation, through domestic investment in their own industries, their own technologies, and their own businesses.
In the U.S., it's almost impossible to run a business because of the high taxation, high regulation, and being selectively targeted by the government with IRS audits or regulatory action by the EPA or, you know, shutdowns from pandemic lockdowns, whatever.
It's almost impossible to run a business in the U.S. And Europe, it's even worse.
And that's why Europe is shutting down.
That's why Germany is collapsing.
That's why the economy of France is in a state of collapse, and the economy of the U.K. is in a state of collapse.
So the military theater is only going to work For a little bit longer.
The day is coming, mark my words, when U.S. aircraft carriers begin to be destroyed.
And I mean completely destroyed, sinking to the bottom of the ocean, taking 5,000 souls with them.
Because that's how many people there are on the aircraft carriers.
And once the carriers start sinking...
Well, then it's over for the projection of U.S. power around the world.
At that point, the U.S. only has a bunch of threats, a bunch of PR, a bunch of empty talk, and dollar weaponization.
But the BRICS nations are already building their alternative to the dollar anyway.
They're not going to be using dollars.
They have their own parallel system.
And a year from now, that parallel system will be up and running And expanding its reach quite dramatically.
So the U.S. is going to end up isolated from the world where most of the world will reject the U.S. just like most of the world right now.
If you look at a U.N. vote on recognizing the nation state of Palestine, by the way, virtually the entire world votes to recognize Palestine, but not the U.S., not the U.K., You know, the Western nations are all allied against a free Palestine because they're trying to cling to power.
The whole world is done with the US, done with the terror nations of the West, which includes Israel, the US, the UK. I mean, the UK has been a terrorist regime for centuries.
And the U.S. has been a terror regime since post-World War II. And Israel's been a terror regime since 1947, 1948, the Nakba.
And the tools of terror by these nations are running out.
Australia and New Zealand, they're terror regimes against their own people.
Same thing with Canada.
But it's all running out.
The future doesn't belong to the West.
And so what's the upshot of this?
Well, plan accordingly.
If you're holding dollars, when it all comes down, you'll lose virtually all value of those dollars.
You'll lose everything.
Look at gold and silver.

Or if you want goldbacks, which are highly divisible, Gold, well, they're shaped like bills.
They're not currency.

Thank you for listening.
Be prepared for big changes.
They're coming.
Take care.
All right.
So getting back into the main theme here.
Remember that Iran very likely has nuclear weapons, and Iran is watching the Israeli situation very closely to see how much support for Israel is coming from the West.
Now, the United States has already, under the Biden administration, has already cut off the supply of 2,000-pound bombs and apparently other forms of ammunition that are used by Israel in aggressive assaults on Rafa or other cities.
And this is because Joe Biden is really hurting in the polls, you know, because of his support for Israeli genocide and the fact that the youth vote is turning against genocide Joe.
But it's not just the U.S., Here's a story out of MiddleEastI.net.
UK Labor Party calls for pause in Israel arms sales as Cameron dithers.
So the Foreign Secretary David Lammy says the government should prevent the sale of weapons that are likely to be used in Israel's offensive Andrafa.
So this is the second major weapons supplier happening.
That is now at least moving in the direction of cutting off Israel from Western weapons.
At the same time, remember that yesterday, Egypt joined the International Court of Justice action against Israel, which is based on a claim that Israel is carrying out genocide, a claim that the ICJ declared to be plausible, saying that the court case against Israel may proceed.
So one by one, more and more countries are turning against Israel.
This is likely to continue as long as Israel continues to ramp up its bombing of civilians, its killing of women and children.
And, of course, attacking Rafa, which is a city that Israel once told the Palestinians that you could evacuate to safely.
You know, go south, go south, they said.
We're only going to bomb the north.
So everybody went south in Gaza, and then Israel's like, well, we're going to bomb the south too, you know, because they're genocidal mass murderers.
The world is figuring this out.
So here's the question.
If you're Iran looking at this, right now you're thinking, okay, maybe we don't have to nuke Israel because Israel is being cut off in terms of some of its weapons.
And the tide is turning against Israel in Western nations.
And if you're Iran, again, you have this ace up your sleeve, you have these secret surprise nukes, but you can only do that once.
And right after that, the secret is out.
So you're not going to use them unless you absolutely have to.
However, there's an election coming up in America.
And the election, as I talked about yesterday, is very likely going to see Donald J. Trump reinstalled as president with massive funding from the Zionists.
And the GOP, we've seen this dramatic turn.
Frankly, ever since the student campus protests began, we see massive bribes of GOP candidates from AIPAC. And then we've seen all these GOP representatives and GOP, by the way, stands for genocide of Palestinians.
All these GOP representatives now Saying they're all in for Israel, they support Israel no matter what.
Even Lindsey Graham is like, no matter what, they can do anything they want to win.
Like, bomb Gaza, Hiroshima, Nagasaki.
I mean, that's Lindsey Graham.
He says, he talks just like that.
He's like, anything they need, they can do anything.
He's like, lightning bolts from Thor, you know?
Cosmic beams from alien craft, or whatever it takes.
I mean, that's Lindsey Graham.
Just kill them all!
Kill them all!
That's what he says.
Because he's a lunatic, right?
But the GOP... Here's what has happened.
I'm not sure that everybody realizes this yet.
The Zionist money and the Zionist media and the Zionist influence, which is massive, it's not a conspiracy theory to say that the Zionists control the banks and the media and Hollywood and everything.
They do.
They have so much money and so much influence, they can buy the U.S. Congress.
They can buy off the governors.
They control it all.
They control the U.S. Congress.
They have shifted away from the Democrats, and now they've chosen the GOP to carry their banner for the next four years.
So you're going to see in November, because of this, you're going to see Trump reinstalled, almost certainly.
You're going to see GOP members take the majority in the Senate and in the House, and then you're going to have A Zionist-controlled GOP in America send a lot more weapons to Israel.
They're going to crack down on, quote, anti-Israel speech in America.
They're going to give more money to Israel, more weapons, and eventually soldiers, U.S. soldiers.
They're going to be boots on the ground in the Middle East.
I know it sounds crazy, and it is crazy, but that's probably what's going to happen under Trump.
Because Trump is all in with Israel because a deal was made.
Here's the structure of the deal the way I see it.
I mean, again, I don't have any special inside information, but this is from my years of analysis and knowing the dynamics and knowing some of the key players and so on.
Here's what I think happened.
I think they sat down with Trump.
This happened maybe a month ago, something like that.
It happened in Florida.
And they said, look, they being the Zionist billionaires and influencers and the shot callers, let's say.
They said, Donald J. Trump, you want to be president?
You want to stay out of prison?
You want to control the government again?
And Donald Trump says, yes, I do.
And they said, okay, here's what's necessary for that to happen.
You pledge allegiance to the Zionist regime.
You're gonna do everything we tell you to do.
You're gonna support everything that we tell you to support.
You're gonna be all in for Israel all the way.
You're gonna support the mass killing of Gazans, Palestinians, whatever it takes.
You're gonna provide weapons, funding, troops, military support, unlimited grant money, whatever, foreign aid.
You're gonna do all that.
You're never going to criticize Israel.
You're never going to question it again.
Now, he did criticize Israel a few months ago.
Those days are over.
And in exchange for these commitments, Donald J. Trump, we're going to put you in the White House.
We're going to put you in the White House, but we're going to make sure that we have something on you.
We're going to install some people with you, Probably, for example, a vice president candidate.
You're going to choose the VP that we want you to choose.
Because if you ever turn against us, we're going to have you taken out.
And then the VP becomes president and the VP is even more of a Zionist than you are.
And of course, we're going to have like a chief of staff with you in the White House who will be your sort of your Zionist enforcer.
They're going to install Zionists in the Trump administration to make sure he stays on track.
And they will, of course, allow Trump to do some things on his own that don't have much to do with Israel.
For example, Trump can pass tax cuts and he can help protect the Second Amendment and he can pardon the J6 prisoners in D.C.
And he can do some things like that to stay more populist.
And some of those things could be very positive, by the way.
But ultimately, Trump will answer to Israel, not the American people.
He's going to do what Israel wants, not what America needs.
Now, maybe Trump will be able to protect the border.
That's obviously critical.
But he's going to protect Israel first.
So does that mean that you shouldn't vote for him?
Not necessarily.
I mean, that's up to you.
You can't vote for Joe Biden, obviously.
And RFK Jr.
is probably more of a Zionist puppet than Trump is at this point.
It's hard to say.
They're all Zionist puppets.
The question is, who's more of a Zionist puppet?
But RFK Jr., didn't he just support full-term abortions?
That was crazy, and his policies on energy are just whatever.
You vote for whoever you want to vote for, obviously, and a lot of people are going to vote for Trump.
And the guest I have coming up here, Clay Clark, he's definitely voting for Trump.
For me personally, where things stand right now, I can't vote for any of these people.
I can't live out the rest of my life knowing that I voted for someone controlled by the Zionists.
For me, that's the line in the sand.
Can't do it.
Just can't do it.
But then again, the votes of the people almost don't matter anymore, do they?
Because it's the wealthy donors and it's the people who control the media and the people who control the ballot machines.
Those are the ones who decide the election, right?
Because our elections are rigged.
So I don't know whether voting or not voting makes any difference anymore.
In fact, wasn't it Elon Musk who just tweeted out a day or two ago that the 2024 election is the last election that will be decided by the American people?
After that, it's going to be illegals anyway, who are going to be given the right to vote.
And they're just going to vote for endless handouts until the whole system collapses, which probably isn't that far away.
But for me personally, I take voting seriously.
I evaluate people that I vote for.
And I just, I can't vote for somebody who doesn't put America first.
End of story for me.
By the way, I don't know if you recall this, but I talked about how this investment group approached me a couple of years ago, before the 2022 midterms, and they wanted to invest in Brighttown.com.
And they said they really wanted the Brighttown platform to help GOP members win elections.
And Now, looking back at that, I'm wondering, I mean, I honestly don't know, but I'm wondering if that was a Zionist group that was trying to take over Breitian so they could censor any kind of, you know, free Palestine videos or something like that.
Or maybe it wasn't.
Maybe it was just, you know, an America first group of investors.
But I'm always suspicious of people who want you to come talk to them because they have a lot of money.
Yeah.
To me, that doesn't...
I don't respect just the fact that somebody has a lot of money.
There's a lot of evil people that have a lot of money.
In fact, most of the money in the world is in the hands of evil people.
So...
When people come to me like, I've got a bunch of money.
We want to invest in your company.
We want to buy your technology.
We want to do this.
Like, what, you want me to meet with you just because you're a billionaire or you represent a bunch of billionaires?
Yeah, that's not enough.
I'm not that guy.
I'm not the guy who just is interested in material wealth while selling out the people.
No.
As I've often said, what's the point of living in a world if you have a bunch of money but you have no freedom?
Right?
I mean, that's crazy.
I want to live in a world where there's liberty, where there's decentralization of power back into the hands of the people.
I want to live in a world where my neighbors do well, where there are small businesses flourishing all over society.
Right?
I don't want power in the hands of a few corporations that are corrupt and evil.
I don't want all the power in the hands of a few politicians and a few groups like APAC. I want decentralization of power.
And that goes for me, too.
And that's why I'm giving away the AI language model technology that we're developing at considerable expense, by the way.
A reminder there, by the way, visit brighteon.ai and you can download the language models for free.
And we've got some really cool ones coming up soon, too.
Man, oh, I can't tell you yet what we have coming, but you're going to be amazed.
So I want to put technology into the hands of people.
I want to empower individuals at the local level, at the grassroots level.
And we have too much power in the hands of corrupt people, too much power in the Senate.
Too much power in government, generally speaking.
Too much power in the central banks, obviously, with all the fiat currency printing.
Too much power in the dollar, which has turned the U.S. empire into a bully nation rather than one that learns how to compete and get along with the other nations in the world.
But this is all about to change dramatically.
So get prepared, because big changes are coming.
Now, we're going to jump into the interview with Clay Clark here.
Now, Clay is someone I've known for many years.
I spoke at one of his events, first in Tulsa and then in San Antonio.
Go to his website, timetofreeamerica.com.
He's got conferences.
These are the Time to Free America conferences, or Reawaken America Tour.
And he's got, these events are coming up June 7th and 8th in Detroit.
Michigan, obviously.
And then, let's see, June 27th and 28th in Tulsa, Oklahoma again.
Oh, wow.
And that conference is featuring Tim Tebow from the NFL, faith-based NFL player, if you recall.
I don't know what's after June 27th and...
And beyond.
But he's got lots of great speakers, lots of events coming up.
But anyway, I invited Clay on to interview him, and I gave him a little bit of a hard time.
That's...
That's my fault.
I was feeling a little bit feisty, kind of angry at Trump lately, actually, for selling us out to the Zionists.
And so I introduced Clay in this interview, and I said, Hey, Clay, I'm pissed at Trump!
But we have a great conversation about what Trump did that's very positive and constructive, and maybe some faults and areas where Trump needs to do better.
But we talk about more than Trump.
We talk about America and what's happening politically and economically and so on.
So it's a fascinating interview with Clay Clark, the organizer of these events, where General Flynn is a frequent speaker and Eric Trump, I think, has spoken at some of these events and so on.
So again, timetofreeamerica.com is the website if you want to get tickets to attend these events.
I am personally not scheduled to speak at any of these events, although Clay Clark has invited me to speak at these events.
But given that I'm really angry at Trump right now, perhaps it's best that I don't.
We'll see what happens with Trump and Israel in the next few months.
We'll see.
We'll see.
I'm open-minded.
We'll see.
If things change course, we'll see what shakes out of this.
But anyway, I'm not speaking anywhere, except in Central Texas, just because it's hard for me to travel.
I've got animals to take care of on my ranch.
I've got trees to water.
I've got, you know, one of my dogs is getting old and is having a tough time.
And then I also have my security dog with me that takes special care.
You have to have a dog-friendly hotel room and things like that.
And then some hotels are like, you can only have a dog if it's 25 pounds or less.
And then Rhodey pops in and is like, that is not a 25-pound dog.
That's a 100-pound leg-eating machine right there.
That's what that is.
Can I have him in your hotel?
They're like, hell no.
So it's hard for me to travel.
I don't enjoy staying in hotels anyway, and I don't fly on commercial jets because most of them are made by drug-using Boeing employees who don't even know what they're doing, and they falsify the inspection records.
Well, I don't want to get on a Boeing jet.
I'm not interested in falling out of the air, you know?
Not without a parachute, anyway.
Wouldn't that be funny to get on a Boeing jet wearing a parachute?
You know, I'm sure the police would ask you, what are you doing?
I'm like, are you planning on sabotaging this flight?
My answer would be no.
Boeing employees already did that.
I'm planning on surviving this flight, you goons.
That's why I have a parachute.
Isn't it obvious?
Yeah.
If you think Boeing airplanes rigorously pass FAA inspections, then you probably also think men can get pregnant and have babies and nurse them, you know?
No, thanks.
I'm not playing bowing roulette with my life.
No, thank you.
But here's a piece of trivia you may not have known, but if it wasn't for Clay Clark, I would not have my dog, Rhodey.
There's an interesting connection there.
So I have to thank Clay for introducing me to this beast.
Where did he go?
Oh, he's sleeping.
Don't disturb.
Don't disturb the security dog.
He might suddenly want to play or something.
Alright, before we jump into the interview, a couple of plugs here.
The Satellite Phone Store is a sponsor of our show, Backup Satellite Communications.
Very important to consider this.
And not only do you need a backup comms plan, but satellites are used by the military and by U.S. senators.
They have sat phones and bivvy sticks, which are satellite messaging devices.
So check them out at sat123.com.
And we've also got backup emergency solar generators at beready123.com.
Be sure to visit our online store, healthrangerstore.com, for nutrition and food, storable foods, personal care products.
And we've also got the knives, co-designed with Dawson Knives.
And we've got body armor with Hoplite Armor, now designed and made in America.
Oh, by the way, there was a story that was so funny.
There was a police...
Well, not funny, actually.
What is it?
There was a police department.
I think they were in Iowa or somewhere.
And they found out that all their body armor was...
Fake body armor, counterfeit body armor from China, and it wasn't really, you know, offering ballistic protection, and they had been using it for some period of time.
Can you imagine coming back from a SWAT raid on a meth house or something, and then realizing that your body armor never would have worked?
That's frightening!
Woo!
Make sure you get body armor from reputable companies so that it actually does what it's supposed to do, which is stopping bullets.
All right, with that said, here's Clay Clark.
Enjoy the interview, and please pardon my little bit of a pissy attitude.
It's about Trump, not Clay Clark.
Clay Clark is awesome.
Enjoy the interview.
Welcome, everyone, to today's interview here on BrightTown.com.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of BrightTown, and today we're joined by a very special guest, Clay Clark, from TimeToFreeAmerica.com.
He's been organizing so many events and training sessions and speaker sessions and live events all over the country for the past few years now, and Clay has seen everybody, knows everybody, and has seen everything happening, and he's freaked out.
So welcome to the show, Clay.
It's great to have you on today.
Mike, not that you need a public praise from me, but I'll tell you this.
My wife loves your program, loves your broadcast, and I appreciate you always discussing the facts, no matter where the facts have taken you.
You were being a high-value, low-drama guy, so I really do appreciate everything you're doing for our country.
Well, you as well, Clay.
I appreciate what you're doing.
And let me just start out.
I know we've got a lot to talk about today, but I'm pissed at Trump.
I'm pissed at Trump.
I am not happy with Trump right now because he's supporting the FBI expansion funding.
He's all in with the Zionist bombing of civilians in Gaza.
He still hasn't apologized for Operation Warp Speed.
Now he says he's going to use the military to round up illegals all across the country.
Now I agree we need to get them out, but...
But really?
Are we going to turn our streets into like a military police state of rounding people up on every street corner and show me your papers?
What do you say to this?
Okay, well, I'm going to go through the five questions I've been asked a lot about President Trump here, Donald J. Trump, over the last couple weeks.
There's five.
There's five I keep being asked.
Okay, okay.
One is the blatant, in-your-face, unapologetic endorsement of Operation Warp Speed.
Right, and that's always been a problem with Trump.
Persistent.
And I've consistently, on my show, I know you have railed against Operation Warp Speed, and so I tell people, this is my response, there's three things, in my opinion, that I care about if I'm voting for a president.
Maybe there should be 50, but there's three I really think about often.
Do you have a strong, like, do you have safety?
Do you have strong police, strong military?
Do you have safety?
That's issue one.
Yes.
Two, do you have a strong economy?
Okay, that's great.
Issue number three is, do you have medical freedom?
And, you know, basically, are you going to be dead as a result of vaccine mandates?
Because it wouldn't matter if you have a safe economy, a strong economy in a safe city if you're dead.
And so I just couldn't disagree with President Trump more about Operation Warp Speed.
I just couldn't.
And it's been even harder for me to stomach that as I watched Peter Navarro, his former top economic advisor, he's been saying out loud, Navarro, This is Peter Navarro.
He's been saying that the COVID shots...
He went on the Patrick David YouTube show and said that the COVID shots are, in fact, bioweapons.
This is Peter Navarro.
I mean, Kash Patel posting about effective therapies to potentially help people that have been vaccine injured.
I mean, so...
I just disagree about Operation Warp Speed.
That's my reaction about that.
But you do bring up a good point.
Under Trump, we had energy independence, which is so huge.
If we could have the Trump energy policies back in America, we wouldn't need to worry so much about the Middle East, which kind of segues to that question.
But you make a good point, Clay.
Trump did a number of very important things.
And right now, One reason I want to see Trump back in the White House is because I just want to see all these traitors arrested.
You know, I mean, that's like...
You see, you're kind of segwaying into that second Trump question I get asked all the time is the FBI. Yeah, yeah.
And again, some of this is public now because of his social media posts on Truth Social, but some of it's been stuff that people said behind the scenes.
They're like, why is he in favor of making the FBI bigger or have a huge building erected in D.C.? What's that all about?
Yeah.
And I think you probably would want to interview Kash Patel, who I know has been on your program, and probably ask him that, because I don't know a lot about his plans.
I know Trump has always been a law and order kind of guy.
I know that he was railing against Bill Barr and railing against Ray, trying to get them to do anything ever, to ever arrest anybody ever.
I remember Trump tweeting one time, arrest somebody.
I remember him, exclamation point, arrest somebody, arrest anybody.
So...
I have no idea.
But again, I mean, I look at the FBI. I'm sure there's great people that work at the FBI. I'm sure the vast majority of people are great people.
But there has been a weaponization of that.
And I just I don't know anybody who's excited about building a massive FBI building in D.C. right now.
I don't know anybody.
This is the issue.
If you grow the size of government.
All those agencies that get all that money will come up with reasons to use that money.
And for the most part, they're weaponizing it against the American people.
So, I mean, Trump has got to realize this.
If you make the FBI bigger, it's going to be more of a weapon against the American people.
And look at the FISA situation approved by Congress.
Illegal, unconstitutional spying on the American people.
The only answer to this is the Ron Paul answer, Clay.
It's smaller government.
Smaller government.
Smaller government.
Cut government funding and spending by 90% and then you get your freedom back.
Third issue, Mike, and I'm telling people I will vote for President Donald J. Trump.
I've been given my two options.
I'll be voting for Trump.
I've not apologized for that.
But the third issue is this whole idea of fake faith Speaker Johnson.
Now, he doesn't call him fake faith.
I call him fake faith, Speaker Johnson.
And one of the things that bothers me so much, before the Reawakened Tour, now that I'm doing the Reawakened Tour, before I met you, now that I've met you, just something that's bothered me for at least 30 years that I can remember.
I'm 43 years old, so for at least 30 years it's bothered me.
It's fake faith people.
It's where they understand the buzzwords.
So if you're out there watching today and you want to get applause, there's actually a recipe for it, okay?
So let me tell you what you do.
You come out, you build rapport.
You say, hey, Tulsa, good to see you.
How you doing, Austin?
Woo!
You get a little Ric Flair.
Woo!
And you get, how you doing, San Diego?
And there's a certain colloquial people appreciate that you know where you are.
Woo!
That's rhetoricals that no one can say no to.
How many of you are in favor of strong police?
Woo!
How many of you love freedom of speech?
Woo!
How many of you, it's Ric Flair everywhere.
How many of you are here?
Woo!
You know, you get that.
And what happens is once you get that, if you really want to get it going in your fake faith, which is what Speaker Johnson is, you begin to say parts of the Bible.
And then you use that to mask that you don't actually do anything you say.
So you focus on what you say, not what you do.
In Latin, we call this octanon verba.
Octanon verba in Latin means watch what someone does, not what they say.
So a guy like Johnson, he'll go, you want to know my policy?
You want to know my policy on America?
It's the Bible.
What?
You're like, oh, that's great.
Yeah, yeah.
And then people are just so drunk with enthusiasm that no one says, hey, I think you're trying to ban the New Testament with H.R. 6090 there, you little.
Right, exactly.
Looks to me like you're trying to ban the New Testament, you weasel.
It looks like you're funding Ukraine, you weasel.
Looks like you couldn't agree with Biden more on any issue, you weasel.
So that bothers me a lot.
People keep asking me why Trump won't call out fake faith.
Mike Johnson...
And again, I don't know.
Mike, I just don't know.
Well, Clay, so this is, I mean, I've interviewed Roger Stone on this show several times as well.
And we had a discussion about this.
And I said to Roger what I'll say to you, which is that, you know, the number one complaint really about Trump's first term, at least that I have, is that he tended to surround himself by people who were traitors.
So Trump himself would issue a directive, let's say, to the people around him and say, you know, get this done, go get this done, build a wall, get it done, you know.
And most of those directives were positive and constructive, but then the people around him would betray him, like, you know, the first attorney general that he had, and then the second attorney general that he had, and then, of course, Christopher Wray at the FBI that Trump kept there, and then Fauci, you know, we all know about that.
But even in the White House, everybody betrayed him.
And so the question is, Has Trump learned to stop doing that?
To stop bringing in people that are going to stab him in the back and stab America in the back?
Yeah, I don't know.
And you go back to that issue number four, people always ask me, they say, what's with Kushner?
What is with...
I've met the guy one time for about a total of 60 seconds.
Met him one time.
I consider Eric Trump to be a dear friend of mine.
I respect Eric Trump a lot.
Love Laura Trump.
Big fan of...
I mean, Laura Trump spoke at the church I go to, and she was asked by an audience, a pretty large audience, you know, what are your thoughts about the shots?
And she said, it doesn't make any sense for me.
This is what I'm paraphrasing, but Laura was saying it doesn't make any sense for anybody to take an experimental vaccine, nor should it be forced.
That was like her speaking from the heart.
And then people asked, well, how come your father-in-law is pushing it?
She says, I respect him as a leader, but I have no idea.
And she's just very clear about that.
So everyone has their own decisions.
We were just talking about the major concerns that people have about Trump while also stating that I will definitely be voting for him.
Got it.
Got it.
Okay.
Well, I mean, on a practical note...
You can't vote for Joe.
I mean, what are the choices, right?
Yeah, I would say this.
You know, I am 100% unapologetic about casting my vote for President Donald J. Trump.
However, when we talk about, you know, people have concerns about those around him, I bring up Kushner.
But I'm actually glad that President Trump, during a keynote speech recently, called out Kushner.
I mean, you can imagine the awkwardness of the next family gathering.
I mean, he just called out his son-in-law on national TV, but President Trump, to his credit, has now called out Jared Kushner as a liberal.
So, for what it's worth, that's a win for me.
Oh, he called him out as a liberal?
Yes.
He didn't say transhumanist.
He didn't talk about a lot of other issues that I might have, but he did call him out as a liberal while speaking at a major public event there.
It was the event where he rolled out or unleashed, I believe, the Trump sneakers.
And for anybody out there that hasn't heard this, this is the audio clip here, Mike.
This is President Trump here.
A guy named Van Jones.
You know Van Jones?
He works for CNN, so nobody watches.
But he came to my office, along with a few other people.
He was brought in by my very brilliant son-in-law, Jared, who's probably liberal, but I don't want to talk about him.
He's probably a liberal.
Probably liberal, but anyway, he says...
He brought it up and says, well, he doesn't want to talk about it.
So, I mean...
I don't know.
I'll give a point to President Trump on that.
I give him a point on the strong border.
I give him a point on the strong economy.
I give him a lot of points.
I'm just very concerned about a couple points.
Yeah, okay.
That's fair.
And again, Trump is strong on energy, that's for sure.
And we need domestic energy.
In fact, without affordable domestic energy, we have no future as a country.
And Western Europe is figuring that out real quick.
Are you watching the collapse of the German economy?
how fast that's happening.
And they're locking up all their energy over there.
You know, the other thing I'll give President Trump points for or discussion for is he's actually addressing the central bank digital currency and the collapse of the dollar.
Now, you are probably one of the strongest I've ever heard.
I mean, you've done hour long, multi hour long interviews about the collapse of the dollar, about central bank digital currencies.
I'm going to give people just a 30 second sprint through history here.
In 1871, America moves off the gold standard.
We have fiat currency introduced.
We have this thing called the petrodollar, which is based upon this weird relationship we have with Saudi Arabia.
We tell Saudi Arabia, we'll protect you militarily as long as you guys price your oil using U.S.
That relationship has done for the past 17 years.
Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, the BRICS bloc, they've been hoarding the Earth's gold.
January 1st, Iran, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, Egypt, they all joined BRICS. Now Putin has said 25, maybe 40 countries are joining BRICS, and they're all acting together financially and militarily.
So all I'm saying is we're about ready to see the end of the dollar.
And the only person that I know who's mainstream, who talks about this, I would say would be Trump.
Vivek Ramaswamy is concerning to me because he happens to have patents connected to the COVID shots and he happens to have a business history that is inextricably connected to Pfizer.
So again, President Trump is really the only mainstream, main voice calling out central bank digital currencies and the collapse of the dollar as an empire-killing, country-killing thing.
Yeah, well, you've nailed it right there, so let's talk about that in more detail.
Should Trump resume his control over the White House, which would be Trump's third term since he won the second election as well, then he would be facing, of course, an unprecedented global financial crisis, which was worsened in large part by, of course, the Biden years.
So record debt spending, money creation, a trillion dollars every 100 days.
But most importantly, the weaponization of the dollar and the weaponization of the Western financial systems against other countries is accelerating those countries' desire to ditch the dollar and embrace the BRICS system.
And like you said in the pre-show, that's no longer just a theory.
It's a real practical thing that's happening every single day.
At some point, the dollar is just going to be rejected by most of the world.
How do you think Trump would handle that crisis?
I'll tell you how I would handle it, and I'm going to tell you how I would handle it.
I don't know how he would handle it, but this is how I would handle it, and I would love to be asked how to handle it.
I'm asking you now, yeah.
Go for it.
Yeah, this is what I would say if I was asked a question by President Trump.
I'd say, we need to introduce a new gold standard.
Alright, so we're going to just, I'm going to make up an example today, but I would say, as President of the United States, you come out and you declare that one ounce of gold is worth $4,000, or just come up with some number that makes sense to you based upon the epic amount of inflation, money being printed, the monetary supply, etc.
You say, okay, moving forward, it's one ounce of gold is $4,000, or whatever the number is.
You peg the value of the dollar.
Two gold.
You do that.
And then what you do is you say, we are going to have to put constraints on government spending.
And this might not be comfortable, but this is what I would do if asked.
I would say, I know it's crazy, but we're going to have to bring in as a government more money than we spend, or at least not spend more than we bring in, however you want to look at it.
So what we're going to have to do is get rid of the Department of Education.
Done.
Most welfare benefits.
Done.
Any of this diversity, equity, inclusion stuff?
Done.
Any kind of woke departments?
Done.
The medical industrial complex?
Done.
And we're going to get back to doing what government should be doing, which is to get to provide Americans with the right to pursue life, liberty, and happiness.
We're not going to guarantee everybody life, liberty, and happiness.
We're just saying that you have the pursuit of life, liberty, happiness.
Now, if you want to enslave yourself into drug addiction, we can't stop that.
If you want to be a gremlin and be super upset at your wife all the time, we can't stop that.
If you want to be a sluggard, we can't stop that, too.
But I think it is possible to implement a sound currency.
Once you do that, a lot of the corruption might go away, because for people out there who listen to your show regularly, they know that there's companies now, as an example, That you look at like Tesla, and you go, how is Tesla worth X billions of dollars, but yet the company doesn't make a profit?
What?
You say, how is it that Twitter was worth X amount but it doesn't make a profit?
See, people like you and I that operate in a real economy, we just can't team up with our friends on Wall Street and print copious amounts of money or inject union retirement funds into the stock value of our companies.
So we'd get to a real economy very quickly, and I believe that a lot of the corruption you would see would cease to exist if we moved to a sound dollar.
Well, moving to sound money is a classic Ron Paul strategy, and I, of course, agree with you on that.
However, we used to have sound money, and then France wanted to trade in dollars for gold, and Nixon said, nope, we can't keep doing that because we have to keep printing money.
So he took us off the gold standard, and since then, the dollar's lost, what, 96% of its value.
So even if Trump wanted to do this, there's no willingness in Washington.
I mean, can you imagine Senator Lindsey Graham I mean, the entire Washington system is a totally corrupt, fiat currency, counterfeiting, money laundering slush fund operation.
So it's impossible for something like that to happen.
I'm going to say this, and this is not a shameless plug for the Reawaken America Tour, but it is shameless and it is a plug.
Listen to this, folks.
So, you know, when you and I first met, we did that first event in Tulsa, and people were saying, where did this guy come from?
He's very pale.
Who is this person?
Who is this Clay Clark guy?
Well, you know, before this tour, you'd been doing your show forever.
I'd been listening to shows like yours, and I'm just kind of sitting back...
Watching Rome burn, growing companies, thinking at some point, if I have to get involved, I will.
Hopefully we can stop this.
So one of the things I implemented at the Reawaken tour, and you saw this, and hopefully you appreciated this, is I told the speakers you have to end on time.
You get 15 minutes, you get 15 minutes.
You get 20 minutes, you get 20 minutes.
And I was implementing this idea, Mike, that speakers have to start on time and end on time, and you can't pay for stage time.
Let me try again.
Start on time, end on time, and you can't pay for stage time.
And everybody was telling me it's not possible.
You can't have a conference where people can't buy stage time.
You can't have a conference where you insist on people ending on time.
And I'll say this, and Aaron Antis, who's not here, but he's a friend of mine, he's always stage side.
He's found that 95% of the time, we get people to speak on time and to end on time, and we never take payment for stage time.
And Mike, it has irritated some people.
Some people have cursed me out.
Some people have really lost their minds that I would hold them accountable to being on time and that I wouldn't sell stage time.
But we did it, Mike.
But I would just say this.
If you're going to actually make changes, it's going to cause people to get pissed.
And so President Trump has to have this one-term Save America strategy mindset.
He's got to go in with that mindset.
And it is going to irritate all of D.C., Mike.
Well, yeah, but I mean, I agree with you, and the president alone doesn't have the power to make all these changes, right?
So, you know, because of the separation of powers of government, you have to have the Senate in, you have to have the House in, you have to then have the judiciary in with it, and ultimately the Supreme Court.
And the system, I'm not trying to play like Mr.
Doom and Gloom here, but, Clay, the system's f***ed.
Okay?
It's gone.
It's gone.
There's no bringing this system back.
No, you can't be negative, because I'm normally the one who gets called to be negative.
This is a good cop, bad cop thing, because people always tell me, you're so negative on your show.
You're just negative.
You're just, you are just so, I can't tell you how often I get comments, Mike.
People will leave comments going, but God, you negative Nancy!
I'm a fact person.
I'm big into facts.
And so I'm saying this idea, and I know this show gets hyper-censored by mainstream media who watches it and looks for little clips they can take out.
But what I am saying, and again, you can correct my history on this.
Please correct my history.
But at a certain point on this, we recognize, hey, the Redcoats are not in favor of us having essential freedoms.
That's what the founding fathers were thinking, or at least somebody was having that thought.
And Sam Adams, someone could look up this and correct my history, but Sam Adams had what we would call liquid courage, always readily available.
And Sam Adams said, hey, we can't let these Redcoats and these Tory sympathizers tax us without representation.
And I'm upset.
And the bar said, that's right.
And he says, I'm upset.
And the bar said, that's right.
And at some point, as legend has it, Sam Adams and others might have been inspired by liquid courage, but they went around painting red X's on the doors of the business owners and the people that were sympathetic to the Tories.
And we don't know exactly the history of events.
We don't know exactly how it happened.
But we do know that at some point people started throwing rocks.
There's rocks being thrown at the redcoats.
We know at some point a redcoat fired a shot.
Next thing you know, here we go.
And I'm not advocating for a civil war.
I'm just saying you're getting to a place...
To a volcano moment, to the precipice of jackassery, to the absolute magnification of insanity, to the climax of the collapse.
It's all coming together, and something has got to change.
I don't know what it is, Mike, but we're getting close.
Something is on the verge of breaking, and I love some of the terms that you use there.
But, you know, back to balancing the budget.
That concept doesn't even exist in Washington, D.C. And frankly, if you don't address military spending, Social Security, and Medicare, you can't balance the budget.
Because those three things eat up the vast majority of the budget.
And Trump's not going to cut military spending.
He's been pro-military.
He gave the military the biggest budget ever.
It'll probably be a trillion dollars a year under Trump.
Trump can't cut Social Security.
You know, there'd be a massive uprising all over the country.
Can't cut Medicare.
And the unfunded liabilities to the American people are now, I think, about $300 trillion.
Right?
Right?
So, I mean, the government debt is like $35 trillion or close to that, but the unfunded liabilities are $300 trillion.
Which is just, you might as well just add 10 zeros to that.
It doesn't even matter.
It'll never be paid.
And I'm not trying to say that flipping a company is analogous to saving a country, but I'll just give you an example.
Years ago, Mike, I bought a business and it was in the rental space.
They rented tables, chairs, these kind of things for big events.
And I looked up and I recognized, okay, we've got some drivers who deliver party rental items that aren't licensed.
That came with the company.
We've got some employees that are lying about their hours.
We've got a salesperson that can't be honest two times in a row.
We've got a business that brings in a lot less than we're expending.
We're going to have to get crazy here.
We're going to have to do, if you're like, what are you going to do?
And so I just began firing everybody who was nefarious and replacing them with And it was sort of a chaos.
And I'm not endorsing the rise out of the ashes strategy, okay?
I'm not endorsing the whole idea.
I'm just saying is there was so much chaos and people who were around me were like, have you lost your mind?
I don't know.
We're going to fire him, fire him, fire him, fire them, fire them.
You know what I mean?
And then eventually we started to rise as, wow, this company...
I was almost eking out a prophet, but it was a painful thing.
Another example, maybe more dramatic, but maybe more analogous.
There's a person in my life, I'll speak very vaguely, has a series of health problems, and they had to have a limb amputated this week.
Oh, oh my.
And they had a series of issues, and, you know, they had a limb amputated.
That's not going to grow back.
Not a joking matter, but at the same time, I mean, it's like if you knew the situation, you would say, yeah.
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
And so sometimes there's this, like, not positive solution.
To save the patient.
You cut off the limb or the patient dies.
I think that's where our country's at.
That's kind of the analogy I'm going to end with right there.
It's like, we are right.
There, where we got gangrene on the scene.
We have got some black mold up in that house.
I mean, we're going to have to strip it down to the...
If it was a house, you'd strip it right down to the framing.
If it was a person, you've got to amputate a leg.
I mean, I don't know what analogy we need, but we're getting to that level right now where it is getting bad.
I completely agree with you, and I think this is the most brilliant thing that you've said here today, which is that if Trump gets back into the White House, and surely he couldn't talk about this publicly, but you and I might both agree that what he should do on day one is fire like 90% of the executive branch of the federal government.
Instead of funding a bigger FBI, he should fire.
Most of the FBI. He should fire most of the FDA. He should fire, I mean, just by firing people, which he alone has the right to do.
He can shut down the NIH. He can shut down all these nefarious bioweapons programs alone.
He doesn't need congressional approval to do those things.
I talked to a person who's a leading scientist whose name I shall not mention, leading scientist who hit the peak of their career right around the time as Fauci became this institution in and of himself around the Reagan years, okay?
And I asked this person, I said, if you were in the White House, what would you do?
And this is what they said.
This is a person who was very high up in that medical industrial research complex.
And they said, you know, you have to fire the director of everything.
Right, exactly.
And you have to file the assistant director of everything.
And you have to fire the people that fund everything.
And she says, you have to go down to really where you're talking about like the entry-level employees.
Because everybody above that did something corrupt to get there.
And I said, how bad is this person?
This person said, no, literally, people who were promoted, they were sleeping with this person to get this thing.
This person's been blackmailed.
This person signed off on this bogus research.
I mean, it's bad.
So again, I look at Laura Trump as an example.
Again, microcosm.
I don't think people think that I think that fixing the RNC is as simple as...
Fixing the RNC is going to be as easy as fixing the government, or fixing the government will be as easy as fixing the RNC, but Laura Trump went in there as the co-chair of the RNC. I don't want to exaggerate the numbers, but it's publicly documented at this point.
Laura fired a lot of people, like four dozen people right away.
That was great.
Right away.
And it didn't impact donations at all.
And I guess the core question is, are you either for saving America or not?
Because if you're not, you're gone.
Well, right.
And getting rid of...
What was her name?
Rana?
She needed to go.
Yeah, and I'm just saying, someone should look it up right now.
I mean, Laura Trump has fired a lot of people, and Laura's a friend of mine, and I know there's a lot of people that are not friends of her who are reaching out to me going, has she lost her mind?
She's fired like four dozen people in her first week.
And I said, you don't know that number's accurate?
I thought it was 43.
And they go, what?
I think what she's doing right now, I believe this.
I believe that she was cutting off the leg to save the patient.
I believe I saw it happen.
That makes sense.
And the donation went up high.
So the donations went to an all-time high that week.
So I would just say if I was President Trump and I could give President Trump advice on the top five action steps should he return to the White House, there's five I would do right away.
One, I would ban the use of 5G. A little bit crazy for a lot of people.
I know some of your listeners don't know what we know about 5G, but I would ban the use of 5G. That means remove those 5G towers.
Step number two, I'd ban the use of RNA modifying nanotechnology in the shots.
I'd ban the use of that.
Three, this sounds a little bit crazy, I would completely remove large numbers of people from their government-appointed positions, as you mentioned, just fire until you're, you know, just fire, fire, fire, and when in doubt, fire again.
I mean that, when in doubt, fire again.
Next thing I would make sure I would do is I would make sure that we have a strong military that protects America and doesn't try to be world police.
I would really focus on just making sure America has a strong border.
I would return to a sound dollar.
I would return to sound money, a gold bank currency.
That's what I would do.
That would be my advice.
And I really hope that President Trump hears this or something that sounds like this or some show gets to him.
But he needs people Like yourself, like General Flynn, like Laura Trump, people that have shown, like Peter Navarro, people that have shown to be fiercely loyal to America and nothing else.
And we've got to get rid of any of these people that have billion-dollar aspirations and book deals.
And I had a conversation the other day with someone very well-connected to President Trump, and I told them, you know, one thing you may consider with all the staff you bring in is you may say...
As part of working here, you're not allowed to have a book deal.
You're going to sign a legal agreement that says you won't get a book deal for at least 10 years after you leave the White House.
That's part of the deal.
For something like that, people are going in there with selfish ambitions.
Clay, one of the things I really admire about you and your work is that you are an expert in helping businesses recover from dire circumstances, bringing them back to life.
You can take a zombie company And put the humanity back in it, bring it back to life to where it's doing well.
And in my own business operations, which are also considerable, in essence, we do the same thing with ourselves, not with outside companies.
But you've worked with hundreds of companies over the years, thousands if you talk about all your clients and students and so on.
And so it's people like you and I, and there are many other entrepreneurs out there across America who know how to meet a balanced budget.
They know how to make those hard cuts that you're talking about.
But nobody in the D.C. area or Virginia or any...
Most of the East Coast, for the most part, they just get free money everywhere, even from stock market money, stock market valuations, SPACs, and grant money, and just...
You know, just government handouts, so they've never had to balance a budget.
If Trump gets in the White House, I vote, bring in a bunch of people from, you know, Utah, Indiana, you know, Texas, Oklahoma, real America, small business owners.
Yeah.
I'd love to see a homebuilder be in charge of the U.S. economy.
I mean that because homebuilders that I know, I could think of at least four that I know that manage a homebuilding company that does more than $50 million a year.
And guess what they have to do?
They have to know the cost of supplies.
Imagine that.
Cost of labor.
They have to make a profit.
There's no government grants for homebuilders.
They have to manage a variety of trades.
They have to look at inflation.
They have to look at branding, marketing, hiring, firing.
Again, bring a homebuilder in.
That's right.
And for your Surgeon General, bring in somebody who has owned and run a natural health clinic that helps people actually get healthy.
There's an idea.
I'll say this to some frontrunners, and I don't want anybody to lose faith in these people just because I endorse them, but I've been watching people very clearly or closely over the past couple years, the last really five, six years, people around Trump.
And I can tell you, Ben Carson is a man that shows to be very loyal and mission over ego.
That's a guy who really wants to save our country.
I'm not saying I agree with him on every issue, but Ben Carson seems to be very solid.
Mark Robinson, Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson seems to be a very solid individual, very prominent but solid individual.
General Flynn, Peter Navarro, Kash Patel, Laura Trump.
There's a handful of people there that I really, I mean...
Even guys like Patrick Bet-David.
Patrick Bet-David is somewhat of a celebrity.
People know who he is.
But he built something from nothing.
And he can understand.
He built an insurance company.
He understands how the real economy works.
Those are the kind of people that we need around Trump.
We really do not need these bureaucrats.
And I've met so many bureaucrats through the tour, Mike, because they come to me and they say...
My organization, it's always an organization, by the way, my organization thinks that I should speak at your event and we'd like to talk to you about donating.
And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You can't buy stage time at my event.
I don't know if people know that, but most of the conservative events that exist right now, for about $50,000, that's the going rate, you can buy.
Really?
About $50,000.
$50,000.
Look at some of the big events.
That's crazy.
$50,000.
You can typically speak right now.
So I would encourage everybody out there, my calls to action would be, if you go to timetofreeamerica.com, as of right now, we have 251 tickets left on our ticker here.
251 tickets remaining for June 7th and 8th in Detroit, Michigan.
Regardless of what the mainstream media says, you can name your price.
You can pay whatever price you want to pay.
Trump's entire inner circle will be there.
Alina Habba, Kash Patel, General Flynn, Eric Trump, Laura Trump.
And then if you use promo code Mike Adams, again, you can name your price.
We're not going to charge you more.
There was a time where we were considering anybody who used promo code Mike Adams because Mike doesn't make a dime from the reawakened tour.
He refuses any type of affiliate income.
And so we decided that if you were going to use promo code Mike Adams, we were going to think about charging our listeners more if they bought a ticket to the Reawaken America Tour.
But we've decided for my wife's recommendation not to charge anybody more money if they use promo code Mike Adams.
Okay.
All right.
Fair enough.
The website is timetofreeamerica.com, right?
And here's the calendar of events and where they're taking place.
And by the way, hey, Rhodey.
Here he is.
I've got to thank you, Clay, because my dog, Rhody, would not be here without you, by the way.
A lot of people don't know that.
Without your connections.
Here he is.
There he is.
Hey, Rhody.
What a happy dog.
Say hi to Clay.
Speak!
Speak!
Yeah.
Brody looks so happy.
Yeah, good boy.
Okay, they're saying hi to you there, Clay.
Brody looks so happy.
He's super happy.
I mean, he gets to play and swim and chew on my arm while I'm on video.
But thank you, Clay.
This guy's been a game changer, and the audience loves him, and it's because of your connections that he's here, by the way.
Hey, that's great.
I'll tell you, folks, if you want to look into my business connections and the businesses I'm involved in, anybody can go to Thrivetimeshow.com, and I'll save my final little plug here or note.
Tim Tebow, Tim Tebow, you know, the celebrated football player, unapologetic Christian, he's actually coming to my business conference in June, and most people don't know this, but since 2005, I've been hosting business conferences every two months, and as of today, we just now moved under 30 tickets remaining for that June 27th and 28th business conference, and again, So I've been doing those every two months for 19 consecutive years.
So everybody come on out.
That's amazing.
It'll be a lot of fun.
Okay.
All right.
Well, those are the websites there, folks.
Well, timetofreeamerica.com is where you can find out about the schedule, the calendar.
And Clay, you know, I didn't mean to be...
I'm not attacking you on the show today.
I'm frustrated about where our country is headed, and I'm actually kind of desperate to know what you think might be solutions, and you shared a lot of good solutions with us today, and I really respect that.
So let's hope we can get Trump into the White House, and then he'll actually...
Fire 90% of the federal government.
Yeah.
That's what needs to happen.
It is.
It's true.
It's true, Mike.
Thank you so much, brother.
Thank you, Clay.
All right.
Have a great day.
Take care.
All right.
Thanks for watching.
Again, that was Clay Clark.
Just a great American.
And he's not afraid to have a tough, in-your-face conversation like we just had.
But the truth is, if Trump gets in the White House, he can't play patty cake with the deep state.
He's got to just...
Go all out of cleaning out the traitors and the corrupt bureaucracy, the deep state.
So we'll see if we even make it to Election Day.
How about that?
Because the current system in power is so desperate that they probably won't allow us to even get there without causing some kind of crisis.
But thank you for watching today.
Mike Adams here at Brighteon.com.
God bless America.
God bless you all.
Take care.
Alright, let's talk about some solutions for preparedness and survival based on what's happening in the world.
Things are getting completely out of control, as you know.
And some of these are sponsors, some of these are free.
I'm going to give you some free tools here as well.
First thing, show the camera on my desk here.
This is all collapsed currency from all over the world.
Trillions of dollars.
Dollars worth of collapsed currency and then here's fake Hollywood currency of $100 bills.
This is all going to zero.
I mean, some of this is already zero.
But even dollars are going to zero.
This is the solution.
These are called goldbacks.
This is a 50 goldback bill.
It's 51 thousandths of an ounce of gold is embedded in the bill.
And that's why it's so thick.
And they have smaller denominations like the one goldback here.
I could hold it right side up.
This is one one-thousandth of an ounce of gold, and we've done the laboratory testing, and you can find it at our affiliate website called verifiedgoldbacks.com.
If you want real, physical gold that's highly divisible and has high utility, this is the solution, verifiedgoldbacks.com, and if you scroll through here, you can see all of our lab testing that we did.
We actually melted them down, and we did all kinds of tests for the purity and And the mass of the gold that's in these bills.
And check out the different designs here.
Let's see if we can show that.
We've got different designs of different amounts of gold that are embedded in the bills.
There's a 50 that I showed you, and then there's a 25, a 5, a 10, and 1s as well.
Really an amazing solution.
Now, other things to keep in mind.
We've got storable food right now at HealthRangerStore.com.
I've got some on my desk here showing you also the IOSAT iodine, the potassium iodide, excuse me, prevention of the radiation damage to your thyroid.
That's all FDA approved there, the IOSAT product.
We've also got dietary supplement iodine there as well as the We've got the heavy cream, all certified organic, laboratory tested, back in stock, plus the red miso, the yellow miso, and white cheddar cheese powder, which is just pure organic cheddar cheese.
No fillers, no colors, no garbage in it of any kind.
You can find all of that at healthrangerstore.com.
Now, continuing with our topic of preparedness, our sponsor in the satellite phone space is the Satellite Phone Store.
You can find them at sat123.com.
Connects you here to the Satellite Phone Store.
And these are emergency backup comms devices that work even if the cell towers go down or if the power grid goes down.
And they have packages with the bivvy sticks, with Faraday bags, and pre-installed software on a mobile device that protects your privacy because it doesn't talk to the cell towers.
It just talks through the satellites.
You can send and receive text messages and you can let people know you're okay or you can have emergency contacts that are successful through that mechanism.
Here's something that I don't talk about enough, but there's a company called ShieldArms.com that has a new product, which is the S10 Grip Chop.
And as you can see here, this is a chopped-off grip of a Glock 43X. Now, show camera one.
This is my Glock 43X right here.
Let's see if I can get on camera.
And so as you can see, the magwell, you know, this is a pretty long designation right here.
You know, it can stick out if you're trying to do concealed carry.
But if you go to shieldarms.com, they have their Grip Chop S10 firearm, which is available right now, and it's a shorter grip that allows it to be more easily concealed, but yet it takes full-size magazines.
And then Shield Arms has their custom steel mags.
Actually, that's what I've got right here.
This is a...
Here it is.
This is the Shield Arms magazine.
It's vastly superior to Glock mags.
It holds more rounds.
And it's more durable.
So this is the best setup.
You can get these mags and you can get these grip chop pistols at shieldarms.com.
Of course, all federal laws apply.
You have to transfer through an FFL and so on.
Obey your local and national laws in order to do this.
But this allows you to be ultra-concealable in carrying this outstanding firearm, the Glock 43X. And I think you can use discount code RANGER there to save 10% off that firearm.
They may still have that code active.
I'm not entirely sure.
Now, continuing with some more preparedness items, right here, brighteon.ai.
This is our free downloadable artificial intelligence language model.
We are training this on an extensive amount of information on food, herbs, nutrition, off-grid living, but also survival and preparedness.
It's non-commercial, it's open source, it's free to use.
You just enter your email address here, click register, and you'll be given access to a download page, and we're releasing new models all the time, including a 7 billion parameter model that is trained on all of this survival and prepping and nutrition content.
Nobody else in the world has models like this.
In addition, we have a backup comms social media platform that we've just launched called BrightTown.io.
And if you go to that website, brighttown.io, you can sign up.
You can see that it's a big social media type of site.
The thing is, see, it's got free speech videos.
Here's a flat earth video.
That's pretty funny.
There's all kinds of videos here, all kinds of different viewpoints and opinions.
Here's Dave Hodges here with a video.
You can go there and you can share videos and content, and there are no central servers.
It's all peer-to-peer, decentralized, and it runs on blockchain.
And it has its own blockchain coin here, actually, called Pcoin, which is modeled after Bitcoin, and it's kind of a reputation coin on the platform.
Anyway, you can find out about that.
Just go to brightown.io.
If you download the app and run it, then this will even survive the internet kill switch because it doesn't need to resolve domain names in order to function.
So that's brightown.io.
And then, in terms of products that we have, guess what?
We also have the knives that we've custom designed with Dawson knives here.
This is one of our combat knives, and they're made with magna-cut steel, incredibly durable, high Rockwell hardness, they're flexible without shattering, they hold an edge, and they're almost corrosion-proof.
That's the advantage of MagnaCut steel.
So yeah, if you see this, this is a G10 handle with an oversized finger guard here.
This is a really incredible knife.
And because it's got three holes here, show camera one, let me show you this.
Because it's got these three holes...
See if I can get the light just right.
Yeah.
It's got this hole, this hole, and then this hole.
You can use paracord and you can strap it to a stick and make a spear out of it.
So this can be made into a spear relatively easily.
We've got multiple knives from Dawson.
That, of course, I'm the co-designer, and it's got a special wedge end here as well for escape and evasion.
We are out of the escape from L.A. knife, but we do have this Tonto version that we're working on right now that we may come out with, and then we've got some other really amazing...
This is...
Oh, that's another one of our combat knives, but we've got a bushcrafting knife as well that you can check out.
Find all that at healthrangerstore.com.
Bottom line, folks, we have a lot of preparedness solutions for you.
Some of them are free, like brighttown.ai or brighttown.io, or you can use Brighttown Social or just brighttown.com.
And then some of them, of course, cost money.
Like if you're going to get your hands on gold, you know, it's going to cost you.
You're going to pay for the gold.
You're going to...
Not everything is going to be free, obviously.
So iodine, storable food, weapons of self-defense to defend and protect innocent life, these are the kinds of things that we are advocating very strongly right now at this time in history because of what's happening in the world, what's happening with the open borders, where we are domestically, with chaos and lawlessness getting worse in most cities across America, more illegals invading more states and counties.
So be ready to defend yourself.
And then, of course, the collapse of the dollar coming as well.
It's accelerating every day.
You're seeing it with food inflation.
Now look at the cost of your car insurance, by the way.
Look at that.
It's skyrocketing.
Health insurance, it's all skyrocketing.
Things are getting more expensive because your dollar is worth less and less.
Meanwhile, gold is absolutely skyrocketing.
In fact, let me just bring up where gold is right now.
2384.
Show my screen.
I want to show the trend here.
If you look at gold prices here, just over, what does that go back to?
Like the end of October last year, gold was $1,837.
Now, now it's almost $2,400.
Look at that rise right there.
Gold is skyrocketing in dollars because dollars are losing value.
So people who are smart, who want to maintain their value of gold and silver...
Well, it's doing exactly what it's designed to do, to hold value.
Oh, I should mention, by the way, if you go to metalswithmike.com, this is our gold and silver coin sponsor, Treasure Island Company.
And you go there and you can request to talk with them or you can check their real-time prices right here.
They'll give you the price quotes here.
You can look at gold coins like U.S. Mint coins.
Real-time pricing online.
And they have discreet, secure, guaranteed delivery, insured.
So check them out at metalswithmike.com.
They are our gold and silver sponsor for the coins.
So those are some of our sponsors, some of the solutions that we offer, some of the free things that are available to you.
Whatever you do, you know, make sure that you're getting prepared for what's coming.
Grow more food.
Save your garden seeds.
You know, Get more items at the grocery store that you can even stockpile that will last a longer period of time.
Try to get out of the dollar into things that will hold value, whether it's gold and silver or something else.
Maybe you're going to buy a piece of land.
Maybe you're going to stock up on ammo or diesel fuel or something that holds value.
But take action now because the world is becoming more chaotic.
Time is running out.
Thank you for supporting our sponsors and supporting this platform.
We appreciate you.
That keeps us going.
It allows us to build the free tools that we're giving back to you, such as the AI tools as well as the Brighttown.io platform.
But together we can make it through all this and then we'll be the ones who get to help rebuild society on the other side of the collapse of this current system.
And it is collapsing.
But get prepared now while you can and thank you for all your support.
I'm Mike Adams here of HealthRangerStore.com as well as Brighteon.com.
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.
