	Welcome to Brighton Broadcast News for Thursday, November 7th, 2024.
	Mike Adams here.
	We are now, well, this is the second day after the incredible Trump victory, the greatest political comeback victory in history.
	And we're starting to get a picture of what this third Trump administration will look like.
	And yes, this is Trump's third victory.
	We're also realizing that because of the number of votes for Kamala and the number of votes for Biden, which were in the 60-something million range, it's very clear, and Dinesh D'Souza is also saying this, it's very clear that the 2020 election was stolen by the fabrication of somewhere around 18 million fake votes.
	Yeah, that's how big the cheating was.
	was.
	And actually, I should say it was 18 million more rigged votes than normal.
	So in a normal election, the Democrats might actually be fabricating 20 million votes to get to 60 something million.
	There might only be, let's say, 40 million Americans actually voting for Democrats in a typical election.
	So they're, and I'm just guessing at this number, this This is just an estimate.
	But let's say they're printing 20 million fake ballots or fake votes every election.
	But in 2020, they did another 18 million on top of that.
	So maybe 38 million fake votes in 2020 in order to steal that election from Trump.
	That's how bad it was.
	Dinesh D'Souza said, quote, those 18 million votes were fake.
	They never existed.
	Democrats rigged and stole the 2020 election.
	So trying to account for those phantom votes is like trying to account for the absence of the tooth fairy.
	Yeah, exactly.
	There's a lot that's going to come to light.
	And that's why I am suspicious.
	I am highly suspicious of the...
	The relatively easy concession that we just witnessed.
	I don't know about you folks, and I don't want to barf on everybody's party here because everybody's all euphoric right now.
	Like, Trump's going to save us.
	Trump's going to save America.
	So I'm not trying to take away from your party.
	Just saying that there's something about this that's super fishy to me, and it's not over until Trump is sworn in.
	And that's 10 weeks away, folks.
	10 weeks away.
	A lot can happen between now and then.
	Now, granted, a lot of good things can also happen between now and then as well.
	And one of the good things that just happened is that Joel Salatin with Polyface Farms, who I interviewed with my co-host, Todd Pitner, we interviewed him a few weeks ago, I don't know, six weeks, eight weeks ago, whatever it was.
	He has been tapped To help lead the transition team for the US Department of Agriculture.
	And so what I would like to do today is to rerun that interview with Joel Salatin.
	And even though I have other interviews already done that are waiting, and I apologize to those people that I've interviewed, because Joel is being tapped for at least an advisory position in the USDA, I'm going to run that interview.
	And also, another person I know, who I don't think his name has been made public, has also been tapped in an advisory role for the USDA. And then several people that I've interviewed, such as Kash Patel, for example, is Kash, or as I said his name during the interview, Kash Patel.
	I believe, isn't he, ethnically, isn't he Pakistani, I think?
	I'd have to go back and double-check that.
	But Kash Patel is, you know, very patriotic American, and he's got a lot of experience as a prosecutor, as a federal prosecuting attorney, I believe.
	And if he gets tapped for a key position in the DOJ, that's going to be a game-changer.
	This is all going to come down to Who are the people that get tapped to run the Trump administration?
	Because Trump can't, of course, run everything himself.
	And you and I, what we need to do, well, a couple of things.
	Number one, we need to be very, very vocal during these 10 weeks.
	Very vocal about, number one, supporting good people who are going to get good things done.
	And I would put RFK Jr.
	in that category.
	I would put Joel Salton in that category and Kash Patel and a lot of other people.
	And we also need to call out the neocons and the John McCain's that might be tapped, like Mike Pompeo, forget it.
	We need to call that out.
	We need to loudly protest.
	The John Boltons, the neocons, the warmongers, anybody like that.
	The backstabbers, the Mike Pence's, you know, the Bill Barr's, the James Comey's, all of them.
	So this is part of our job for the next 10 weeks, is we're going to be either the cheer squad or the condemnation squad, depending on the person.
	It is our job to judge these people right now.
	During this selection process, we need to judge them all fairly but firmly, which is the way I say God judges us, fairly but firmly.
	So we are, you know, you and I are sitting on the sidelines here.
	We're not going to be part of the administration.
	I mean, they're never going to invite me to join the administration, that's for sure.
	And probably not going to invite most of you to join the administration.
	That's fine.
	I don't want to go to D.C. I'm not going to go to that swamp town.
	Are you kidding me?
	I prefer Texas.
	I prefer rural living on a ranch.
	But anyway, we're on the sidelines.
	So what is our job?
	We need to bring transparency to this.
	In fact, I'm working with some other people to form an independent media alliance that is not beholden to Trump or Maha or MAGA. And we are going to put out a ton of honest, independent reporting on To help keep the Trump administration honest, hold their feet to the fire, so to speak.
	Make sure they do what they say they're going to do.
	And that's the right job of the independent media, by the way.
	That's the job of the free press.
	So we're going to do that job.
	We're taking on that job.
	Somebody's got to do it.
	Why not us, right?
	By the way, I want to say thank you to the very nice couple that sent me a handwritten message that I have right in front of me here.
	It says, God bless you, Mike Adams.
	Keep up the good work.
	Handwritten.
	It's very inspiring.
	Thank you.
	That's D and B, is all I'll say.
	D and B, you know who you are.
	Thank you for sending that note.
	It is much appreciated.
	God bless you, too.
	All right, we've got a lot to cover here today.
	I want to step back and say something in the greater context.
	I've been doing this podcast for four years now.
	I began this podcast, which was originally called Situation Update.
	I began it in 2020, right after the election was stolen by the Democrats.
	And yes, we know they rigged it.
	We know they stole it.
	I am astonished that to this day, people like Ben Shapiro refuse to say that the election was stolen.
	Ben Shapiro, who was anti-Trump for a long time, he helped lead the anti-Trump movement, and he was a vaccine pusher.
	Might still be.
	And he says the 2020 election was all legit.
	I mean, what a deceiver.
	Why does Trump follow that guy around?
	Unbelievable.
	2020 was rigged.
	The entire Biden administration was illegal.
	Literally everything that Biden signed needs to be nullified and reversed.
	I mean, every DOJ prosecution, every executive order, every law, All of it.
	None of it is legally binding.
	None of it is constitutional because that election was rigged.
	And that goes for Senate seats and House seats, all of it, for the last four years plus, actually six years.
	So we'll see if any of that gets rehashed.
	But I began this podcast four years ago.
	Again, it was called Situation Update.
	And I thought at the time, I thought that the election fraud would be exposed.
	I thought it would be exposed before January 6th of 2021.
	Little did I know that was only the beginning of four years of absolute hell and tyranny under the Democrats' tyrannical authoritarian regime run by criminals and terrorists.
	In the FBI, the DOJ, the White House, the State Department, the FDA, the CDC, the EPA, you name it.
	A cabal of criminals and terrorists.
	And what they did for four years is they looted this country.
	They laundered hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign aid money through Ukraine and through Israel.
	They shut down America's domestic energy production as much as they could.
	They sabotaged elements of the food supply.
	They raided the homes of numerous innocent people like Roger Stone.
	They threw people in jail like Steve Bannon.
	And they have incarcerated the January 6th political prisoners.
	Many are still in prison right now, still to this day.
	I mean, talk about a tyrannical regime.
	And these same tyrants are still in power, again, for the next 10 weeks.
	None of us are safe until they are out of power, and many of them should be arrested and prosecuted themselves.
	But I thought, naively, that this whole thing could be overturned by January 6th of 2021, because I thought, surely, I mean, the evidence is so conclusive.
	Look at all the evidence of the rigging.
	Look at the statistical evidence.
	It's abundantly clear here, and we had many experts come out and testify, and it was irrefutable, but no court would hear it.
	They all ruled there's no standing.
	Somehow, if you're a voter in America, you have no standing in an election if it's rigged by the Democrats.
	It was all ruled no standing, and they got away with this deal.
	And I said to you during those months, I said, I will continue this podcast until Trump is returned to the White House.
	Remember me saying that?
	Four years ago.
	Little did I know I was signing up for four years of a daily podcast, which was not my intention.
	And here we are four years later, and now it appears that we are on track for this goal to be achieved.
	But I want to tell you this.
	I'm not stopping this podcast.
	Until Trump is returned to the White House.
	And even then, well, we'll have to see.
	But you've got me until at least January 20th.
	And probably somewhat beyond that as well.
	And even then, I'm not going to stop communicating.
	I might just reduce the frequency.
	But I kind of feel like 2025 is going to be a really crazy, wild year.
	And I don't think that the United States of America as we know it is going to survive intact.
	I don't.
	And I do think that Trump is the last president of these United States of America.
	And what's funny is I said that like six years ago.
	You may recall me saying that.
	And I also predicted something like six years ago that the United States of America would no longer exist as we know it by the end of 2025.
	That's a long-standing prediction that I've made publicly.
	If you think about it, given that Joe Biden was never the president and that Trump is now being restored to the presidency, it looks like this prediction slash prophecy is on track to become quite true,
	that Donald Trump will be the last president of the United States of America I don't care if the prediction is accurate or not.
	I'm just saying that Joe Biden doesn't count.
	He was never president.
	He was never elected.
	And I do believe that that truth is going to come out, by the way.
	I think that's going to come out.
	In fact, I've written a story.
	It's up on naturalnews.com right now.
	And I've even published it on my Substack page.
	It's called The Top 12 Priorities for Trump's America in 2025.
	And I just want to list these top 12 priorities because I was scanning brighteon.social And also the videos on Brighttown.com, and I've got, you know, Brighttown.io, which is the decentralized social media platform.
	I was scanning a bunch of messages and just making notes and trying to coalesce the top requests from people, the top sort of demands.
	What does everybody want Trump to do?
	Now, you can imagine Trump is just being inundated with all kinds of requests.
	Like, Trump, you got to do this, you got to do that.
	And If you think about it, these next 10 weeks, it's going to be Trump's team, whoever that is, sorting through all this stuff and trying to figure out what are the top priorities, what's doable, what's not doable.
	You know, it's got to be a legal review on all this stuff.
	And who's even doing the legal review?
	I don't know.
	I wish I knew.
	But we will find out in time.
	We do have to We have to offer these people some patience here because this is not an easy thing.
	And before I read this list, I want to say too, I am under no illusions that thinking that just because Trump got elected that now suddenly the United States government is our savior.
	Now everything's going to be great because the right people are running the system.
	The system that's just proven itself to be a system of terror for the last four years.
	A system of coercion and confiscation.
	A system that can selectively target people and prosecute people and jail people because of their beliefs.
	The system is dangerous.
	The very existence of the system is dangerous.
	And ultimately, none of us are really free.
	None of us are safe until the system is free.
	Very aggressively defunded.
	And I'm talking about slashing the size of government by 90%, federal government, 90%, if not more.
	And I'll talk about that more in a minute.
	But just as I read this list for you, don't misunderstand me.
	Don't think that I'm worshiping government or saying that government's the answer.
	It's just that if Trump's going to be there, he can get a lot of important things done Until the empire collapses, which is coming.
	So priority number one, I think he's got to free the J6 political prisoners, and I mean all of them.
	He's got to reverse the prosecutions, set those people free, and he's got to pardon, somehow he's got to find a way to pardon Tina Peters in Colorado, even though she was convicted at the state level.
	She needs to be set free.
	She was sentenced to some insane, like, It was like six years or something in prison simply because she worked for the state government.
	She was trying to preserve and protect the electoral record, the voting records.
	And so the malicious Democrats, the demon rats in California, they prosecuted her and jailed her.
	She's got to be set free.
	I've also said...
	Edward Snowden deserves a pardon.
	I would also say Julian Assange deserves a pardon, except that case has already been, you could say, resolved, and he's already been set free, relatively speaking, although he had to admit to something that he did not do.
	And Ross Ulbricht needs to be pardoned as well.
	Priority number two, prosecute the traitors and the election fraudsters.
	I say...
	It's time.
	It's time to prosecute every single person that engaged in election fraud.
	And I'm talking about 2016, 2018, 20, 22, 24.
	Any time in the last decade, if you engage in election fraud willingly, you need to be prosecuted.
	And I would only say that we should offer some kind of amnesty for those who are willing to confess.
	If you're willing to confess to your role in election fraud, specifically to confess everything, then we need kind of a reconciliation system and public hearings, confessions, and people need to name others who are the co-conspirators with them.
	If you're willing to confess, then I think you should be immune from prosecution.
	But for those who do not confess...
	They should be prosecuted and if found guilty, they should be removed from society by being sentenced to life in prison without parole, in my opinion.
	Because they put this country through hell for four years and we very nearly lost this nation.
	In fact, it's not over yet.
	We're not out of the woods yet, which I'll get to in a minute.
	Priority number three.
	Deport the illegals and build a wall to protect the southern border.
	Yes, we have to deport millions of illegals.
	Who crossed the border illegally.
	They violated the law.
	Many of them are members of gangs and drug cartels, and they are carrying out acts of violence, raping and thievery and pillaging and murders and who knows what else.
	Carjackings.
	It's time to find them and boot them out of the country.
	Boot them out and record their names and fingerprints so that we know if they come back in, well, then it's, you know, strike two.
	And guess what happens in strike three?
	Well...
	I guess we'll let the Trump administration decide that.
	Priority number four, end medical tyranny and eliminate the FDA, CDC, EPA, and USDA. In fact, we need to end direct-to-consumer drug advertising, DTC ads, as they're called.
	That'll stop Pfizer from controlling the media or other pharma companies.
	And by the way, I think there need to be criminal prosecutions of the vaccine makers and the COVID pushers.
	We'll talk about that later.
	But these agencies, FDA, CDC, EPA, USDA, there's a lot more in that list, DEA, ATF, IRS. Can you think of a single good thing that any of these agencies do for this country?
	Anything good?
	There was a rumor floating around that Representative Thomas Massey was going to be picked to head up the USDA. He's denied that.
	He's a congressman, and he believes in clean food and decentralized farming and food production.
	Great guy.
	He also resists taking any Zionist money from the Israeli lobbies, by the way.
	So he's one of the few.
	But I don't want Thomas Massey to run the USDA. I want Trump to end the USDA. I want the budget of every federal agency to be exactly zero dollars.
	I can't think of a single good thing that any of these agencies do for America.
	None of them do anything for us.
	They are dangerous, out of control, overzealous, arrogant terrorist organizations.
	They run around terrorizing America.
	The FDA terrorizes manufacturers of nutritional supplements and superfoods and anything that's healthy.
	You know, herbal supplements, natural remedies, homeopathy.
	They just get terrorized by the FDA. What is the CDC but a propaganda front for big pharma?
	And the EPA? Give me a break.
	They're trying to destroy our economy by outlawing combustion engines, claiming that carbon dioxide is a pollutant when it's the single most important molecule for photosynthesis and growing food crops and Growing rainforests and trees and supporting ocean life even.
	The EPA is a terrorist organization.
	An anti-science terrorist cabal of criminals.
	The EPA does nothing good for this nation.
	The USDA, all they do is approve toxic poisons to be sprayed on the food supply.
	You know, for the most part.
	And sometimes they're involved in bioweapons research to build agricultural bioweapons.
	That, you know, end up becoming dangerous tick-borne diseases and things like that.
	I mean, none of these agencies do anything good for humanity or the world or America.
	End them all.
	Defund them all.
	We don't need a single one of these.
	And see, that's a big difference.
	A lot of people are cheering, like, RFK Jr.
	might come in and run Health and Human Services.
	And I've said positive things about that, too, but only in the context...
	I mean, I hope you don't mind me using this metaphor, but it's just a metaphor.
	It's like pulling the pin on a grenade and rolling it into the offices of a bunch of bureaucrats, except This is a metaphor, a cartoonish metaphor, but that grenade is called RFK Jr., and when it detonates, it just blows people out of their jobs.
	I mean, it's a cartoonish, like a Roadrunner, Bugs Bunny type of kaboom, and everybody's blown out of their jobs.
	I'm not advocating violence against any government officials, although they resort to violence against us all the time.
	Chemical violence, medical violence, vaccine violence, you name it.
	But I'm not advocating violence.
	I'm just saying that somebody like RFK Jr., you could roll him in there, and if he, quote, detonates the system, he could effectively reform it.
	You could call it a reform.
	Or an implosion or a detonation, but what really needs to happen is that RFK Jr.
	needs to just slash that thing down to nothing.
	Like, just prune it until there's nothing left.
	You could call it reforms, but really what needs to happen is that the whole damn thing needs to be shut down.
	In fact, the whole concept of the federal government is obsolete at this point.
	We don't need a federal government.
	We need no federal government whatsoever.
	What do they do well?
	Nothing.
	They function as parasites on society.
	And they threaten everybody and coerce everybody and loot the country and steal money from people and print their own counterfeit currency and start wars and cause untold human suffering and death around the world.
	They don't do anything good.
	And they steal land from the American people.
	How much of the land out west is, quote, federal land?
	I think like 80% of Nevada or Utah has been taken by the federal government.
	Yeah, the government just steals all the land and says, well, it's ours now.
	It's just a giant looting operation, folks.
	And that's why priority number five here is end all federal income taxes on individuals and eliminate the IRS. And I've even added that the IRS should refund the last five years of all tax payments from all individuals.
	Just give it back to the people.
	Because the IRS stole it in the first place.
	The government stole it from the people.
	There's no need to tax the people to fund the government.
	That's absurd.
	The government prints the money.
	You don't need to run around collecting money from people.
	I mean, centuries ago, kings had to do that because they needed to gather up coinage.
	They couldn't just Print their own money.
	They had to gather the coins from people because the coins actually were made of gold and silver and so on.
	Today, it's mostly digital.
	The government can just digitally create whatever money it wants.
	It doesn't need to tax anybody for anything.
	No taxation necessary.
	Therefore, no IRS is necessary.
	Get rid of it.
	Stop the terrorizing of the American people with the IRS. Let people just keep what they earn, man.
	I mean, isn't printing money enough of a tax?
	And then you've got to take people's money on top of that?
	And this whole idea that, oh, the government needs revenue to fund its operations, that's nonsense.
	Anybody saying that is a liar.
	They're lying to you.
	They know they're lying to you.
	There's no relationship between government revenues and government spending.
	And government spending certainly is not limited by government revenues.
	Otherwise, the debt clock wouldn't be exploding every minute of every day with, what, $35 trillion in debt and counting and $230 trillion in unfunded liabilities and so on.
	Yeah, this system's not going to be around much longer, by the way.
	But in the meantime, we should eliminate the IRS completely.
	Don't need it.
	The whole country used to be funded by tariffs alone.
	And even today, you could consider replacing the IRS with something like a national sales tax if you were making the revenue argument.
	But as I've said, there is no revenue needed by the federal government.
	It doesn't need revenue from the people.
	It just prints the money anyway.
	Alright, priority number six, restore freedom of speech and prosecute big tech platforms for years of censorship.
	It's time to throw people in prison who went along with censorship and deplatforming based on viewpoint discrimination.
	And we have all the receipts.
	My company's lawsuit that was filed on Memorial Day just lays it all out.
	How the Biden regime conspired with overseas NGOs, And these so-called anti-digital hate groups and whatever, all secretly funded by the deep state operators.
	And then they would launder those requests for censorship back to big tech, and then YouTube would ban anything that I said or posted.
	They would ban channels that just had me on as a guest, by the way.
	Like, my voice would trigger the highest algorithmic censorship of all of YouTube.
	Like, my voice could get any channel banned.
	And it's still that way.
	I tried to upload a Bible sermon a few weeks back, I don't know, a couple months ago, and they banned the first Bible sermon I uploaded, too.
	Yeah, if you're Mike Adams, you can't even teach the Bible on YouTube.
	They will ban you.
	So that lawsuit is ongoing, but we have laid out all the evidence in that lawsuit.
	So if the Trump team wants to go after big tech, just read my lawsuit.
	It's the Brighton Media lawsuit filed on Memorial Day in And if you want to reach out to my top legal advisor, it's Jason Fick, FYK. Jason Fick, he's on Twitter.
	He's the expert on censorship and Section 230 law.
	And this lawsuit has everything, all the smoking gun evidence.
	So if Trump wants to end censorship, we've given him the blueprint of how to do it.
	It's funny because in 2016, I was trying to reach out to Trump to tell him that there was censorship.
	Trump did not even know there was censorship until about 2020.
	He wasn't even on his radar, by the way.
	Even while myself and Alex Jones and a lot of us early people, we were being just deplatformed left and right.
	I was deplatformed from all those platforms, YouTube included, even before Alex Jones, by the way.
	Yeah, they went after me first because they knew what we were building and they knew that organic influence from a real person who isn't compromised and can't be bought off, that's powerful.
	So they had to shut me down more than eight years ago at this point.
	Actually, it was about 10 years ago that they started shutting me down.
	So I've spent a decade being blacklisted and censored by big tech.
	Which has cost my company, who knows, untold amounts of lost revenues and so on.
	But it's not the money that counts as much as the violation of civil rights.
	So that has got to get solved.
	Priority number seven, outlaw grooming, DEI, and woke policies in corporations, government, and education.
	It should be illegal to discriminate against anybody based on their skin color, and that includes white people.
	So DEI policies that say that all white people are born in sin, that you're a bad person because you were born with fair skin, that's wrong.
	That should be outlawed, just as it's wrong today.
	To unfairly target or discriminate against somebody because they have dark skin.
	It's wrong in every case, but somehow whites have no protections under the law whatsoever, and white men in particular, especially heterosexual white men, have zero protections.
	So we need to expand the protection laws to include everybody, not just people of color or just transgenders or gay people or women.
	It should be universal.
	If one group of people deserves protection, well, so does another group because discrimination can target anybody.
	It should always be wrong to discriminate against people in government, in corporations, and in education, and in non-profits based on their race, their skin color, their sexual orientation, their gender, their religion, etc.
	It's wrong in all those cases.
	It's time for the laws to be updated to reflect that.
	Priority number eight, Nuremberg 2.0 trials for the COVID criminals and the depopulation vaccine pushers.
	Now, this is a touchy subject for the Trump administration.
	Trump doesn't want to talk about the vaccines very much, really.
	Doesn't want to talk about mRNA because of, you know, Operation Warp Speed and all of that.
	And frankly, this has been one of the main areas of criticism against Trump is, hey, why didn't you come out and say the vaccines were wrong?
	He's never said they were wrong and People are still hammering him over this very issue, and I think the criticism is justified.
	But look, Trump never forced anybody to take the vaccine, that's for sure.
	He never pushed vaccine mandates, and he's opposed to vaccine mandates, so that's something really positive in his favor.
	But the Democrats and the corporations and the universities and the airlines and the government offices, etc., They all pushed vaccine mandates, and they coerced people through threats of, you're going to lose your job.
	You're not going to be able to visit your parent in the nursing home.
	You're not going to be able to visit your child in a university, whatever.
	You can't fly.
	You can't travel unless you take these jabs.
	That was coercion, and that was not just wrong morally.
	That was a criminal violation of civil rights, in my opinion.
	And I believe that those who push these vaccines, but especially those who helped build them, who engineered them, and who knowingly pushed the jabs, the lockdowns, who hid the truth about all of this, who covered up the dangers of the vaccines,
	and I'm talking about heads of big pharma, I'm talking about high-level people in the FDA and the CDC and many others, In my opinion, all these people should be put on trial for crimes against humanity.
	And I'm talking Bill Gates, too.
	Any globalists involved in this whole scheme, this mass media psyop, they should all be prosecuted, in my opinion.
	And history needs to know the truth about all of this.
	In fact, this is the number one thing that I think RFK Jr.
	could achieve for us, because he wrote the book on Fauci.
	He wrote the book on Fauci.
	I interviewed him about that book a couple of years ago.
	I've got that book around here.
	Fauci needs to be prosecuted, in my opinion.
	The truth needs to come out.
	And by the way, I'm all for offering amnesty to people who want to offer full confessions.
	Full confessions.
	You lay out for history everything that you did.
	Fauci or Collins, Bill Gates, Walensky, you know, all these people.
	Burks, you lay it out.
	I'm willing to grant you amnesty, but I want you to tell the truth.
	And I'm talking about days of testimony.
	You lay out everything that you did to murder people and to deceive people and to push a pandemic because history needs to know the truth.
	And by the way, that's my opinion on a lot of this stuff.
	If Trump decides to prosecute many people for many crimes that have been committed, crimes of election rigging, crimes of treason, Mayorkas, I believe, needs to be prosecuted for his crimes of invading the United States, of building the invasion camps, funding them, organizing them, engineering the mass invasion of this country.
	Mayorkas is one of the worst criminal masterminds in the history of this nation, in my opinion.
	He needs to be prosecuted.
	But if he were to confess everything, and I mean everything, like a book of confessions, you know, 100 hours of recorded confessions, because he did a lot, a lot of crimes, I am more than happy to give him amnesty.
	I am not here to just have, you know, vengeance and lock people up.
	But we need the truth.
	We need the confessions.
	And, you know, this gets me to another point.
	I'll mention it now, which is that there's a lot of talk online about, oh, we need to come together now.
	We need all this healing, and this is the kumbaya time.
	You know, we need to just everybody love each other and hug each other.
	Are you kidding me?
	Do you have no memory of what the Democrats did to Trump for four years during his administration?
	How they resisted Trump's victory in 2016?
	Do you have no memory of what happened over just the last four years?
	The tyranny, the coercion, the mass arrests, the FBI kicking in people's doors at 3 o'clock in the morning, the lies, the deceptions, the absolute financial ruining of people like General Flynn.
	You have no memory of all that?
	No, no.
	I'm sorry.
	This is not a time of lovey-dovey, huggy-huggy reconciliation.
	There can be no reconciliation without accountability.
	And I don't have vengeance on my heart.
	I'm willing to let everybody off the hook if they confess to everything they did.
	There needs to be accountability.
	There need to be confessions.
	So I'm talking about, like, we need like six months of just nonstop confessions in the halls of the Senate or something.
	Of all these people showing up and confessing to all their crimes, COVID crimes, election crimes, border invasion crimes, all of it.
	And then, as far as I'm concerned, we record all that.
	History is retold with accuracy.
	Those people can go on and live their lives in shame, of course, for what they have done, but I don't need to see any of them spend a day in prison.
	If they just tell the truth.
	I think history demands far more that we know the truth than to just punish these people for their crimes.
	You know, their crime is living with themselves.
	Their crime, I mean, God will judge them anyway.
	And God will judge them harshly for what they have done, especially those who were involved in the COVID murders, the genocide against humanity.
	They will be judged harshly But God will inflict that judgment upon them.
	We don't have to do that as a society if they are willing to confess.
	So that should be the choice to all these people.
	Confess or be prosecuted.
	Very simple.
	This should be the universal offer.
	And the way that works, by the way, in terms of legal language is to say, you cannot be prosecuted for anything to which you confess.
	So if they leave anything out of their confession, they can be prosecuted for that.
	You see?
	So that's a motivation to confess to everything.
	Everything that they did.
	Full confession, and then you have full immunity.
	If you only offer a partial confession, well, you only have partial immunity.
	You can still be prosecuted for the things that you held back.
	That's the way it works.
	And that's exactly what this nation needs.
	This nation needs to heal, but in order to heal, the truth has to be told.
	It's kind of like, you know, taking out the garbage.
	You got a bunch of garbage, smelly, stinky garbage in a trash can.
	Your job is to take out that garbage.
	Do you want to hug the garbage?
	Do you want to love the garbage?
	Do you want to just get close and snuggly with the garbage?
	No, the garbage stinks.
	The garbage is nasty.
	You want to get it out of there.
	You don't hug the garbage.
	You take out the garbage.
	That's what we need to do in this country.
	You take out the garbage, and then you ask the garbage to confess, or you'll put the garbage in prison.
	It's that simple.
	Either way, if they confess, then the garbage kind of transforms into not so garbagey, let's say.
	And if they don't confess, well, you put them in prison where the garbage belongs.
	So that's how you take out the garbage in this country.
	It's going to take some super hefty bags.
	All right, priority number nine, get the USA out of foreign wars and end NATO. Yeah, it's time to end NATO. There's no purpose for NATO. NATO's a joke.
	And why is the USA covering all the defensive costs of the Western European nations anyway?
	What's that all about?
	That's nonsense.
	Let the European countries pay for their own defense.
	I mean, if Macron wants to act like a big tough guy and threaten Putin all day long, okay, go for it.
	You fund your own anti-nuclear defense systems.
	You fund your own tanks, your own troops.
	France, go for it.
	How many troops do you have?
	Not that many, turns out.
	I mean, if you only count the non-woke ones.
	Same thing with the UK. How many troops do you have in the UK that can actually fight?
	Oh, that can fight?
	Oh, not that many.
	Probably about 20,000 total that can actually fight.
	That's about it.
	UK, they're done, man.
	France is done.
	Germany is done.
	You know, the strongest member of NATO is going to end up being Turkey, but Turkey is going to leave NATO. Because who wants to be part of that joke group, clown show?
	NATO's a joke.
	Even after funding Ukraine with all the weapons and money, hundreds of billions of dollars from multiple countries and all kinds of weapons systems, Ukraine's on the verge of collapse.
	Zelensky's in a total panic at this point.
	He's totally panicked that Trump has won this election because Trump knows that war doesn't make economies strong.
	Trump wants to get us out of wars, I believe.
	And I hope he does that with Israel as well.
	But Trump's going to end the war with Russia.
	And I think Russia knows that too.
	Zelensky's in a total panic right now.
	Believe me, Zelensky and the rest of his corrupt cabal of cronies They are loading up dollars and gold bars and they're booking private flights out of the country.
	They're getting duplicate passports.
	They are getting out of Dodge.
	And the nearly 600,000 deaths that they caused of their own people, well, they will have no remorse for that because they're just evil people, the leaders.
	They're just evil.
	Just like the leaders of the U.S. have been.
	Just evil.
	They don't care who dies.
	They don't care.
	But Ukraine is on the verge of collapse.
	It won't be long now.
	I'll be shocked if Zelensky is still alive by the end of this calendar year, which means he probably has less than two months to live.
	I'll be shocked if Ukraine hasn't collapsed by the end of this year.
	In some sense.
	Maybe they can kick it into late January because of Trump not yet being president, but let me push that out.
	Let me adjust it and say, I'll be shocked if by the end of January, if Ukraine is still standing as we know it, and if Zelensky is still alive.
	I think Zelensky is a goner.
	And frankly, right now, based on what's happening with Israel, they may be stringing up Netanyahu before then, too.
	Netanyahu, one of the worst war criminals in history, even Yoav Gallant has had enough of him.
	You know that Netanyahu fired Gallant just two days ago, and now I know why.
	Because Gallant wanted to conduct an investigation into what really happened on October 7th of 23.
	The stand-down.
	That allowed Hamas to wage an attack.
	That stand-down was coordinated by Netanyahu.
	And then on top of that, Gallant, he wants the military to take actions that make sense.
	In other words, to only try to do what the military is capable of doing, which does not include overrunning Lebanon.
	But Netanyahu, on the other hand, raving like a lunatic Adolf Hitler, moving around imaginary battalions on the battlefield, Netanyahu's like, invade Lebanon, take Lebanon, drive the tanks to Beirut, kill everybody in Gaza and the West Bank, kill them all.
	And Gallant is saying, well, sir, we can't.
	We tried and we can't.
	Our soldiers are...
	Actually, they've been turned into kind of little sissy soy boys, frankly.
	They're not warriors anymore.
	They don't know how to fight.
	That's the IDF. They're really good at bombing women and children from the air.
	They're really bad at fighting men on the ground.
	That's the truth about the IDF. Sickening group of cowards and demons.
	And they're just defeated again and again by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.
	The IDF can't beat Hezbollah.
	The IDF can't destroy Hamas.
	And the IDF and Israel certainly, they found out they can't really hit Iran very hard either.
	They can't defeat Iran's air defenses.
	But Iran can hit Israel anytime they want.
	And Israel can't stop him.
	So I think Gallant has been giving this news to Netanyahu, like, sir, you know, the Iron Dome doesn't work.
	The soldiers are all woke and weak.
	You know, our Merkava tanks are getting blown up.
	We didn't make much progress in the incursion into Lebanon.
	We couldn't even fight Hamas in the tunnels in Gaza.
	All we can do is basically just blow up buildings and hospitals and mosques and universities and so on.
	That's about all the IDF can do.
	And Netanyahu got mad and fired him.
	And so the Israeli people are about to overthrow Netanyahu.
	And I wouldn't be surprised, like I said, if they string that guy up.
	And if we find Netanyahu...
	Swinging from a street lamp by his neck in the next couple of months, I would not be surprised.
	And frankly, I think most of the world would be very happy to see that happen, and a lot of Israel would be happy to see that happen because Netanyahu is such a criminal.
	And by the way, the IDF is running out of men.
	They're running out of men.
	Because the men that are fighting are getting killed and wounded, and the ones that aren't, they're having mental breakdowns, and now they're starting to kill themselves.
	It's like every day another IDF pilot or a bulldozer driver just offs himself, blows a hole in his head.
	You know, normally after murdering hundreds or thousands of Palestinians, and then they kill themselves.
	But that's what it has come to.
	It's a culture of satanic death.
	And this is one of the key things that we need to watch with MAGA and Maha.
	We've got to watch this with Trump and RFK Jr., both of whom receive a lot of funding and financial support from Zionists who are part of this accelerationist, you know, religious cult of end times prophecy and That they think that they have to murder everybody and sacrifice everything in order for God to come save Israel or some such thing.
	They've got to build a third temple.
	These people are driven by total insanity.
	And yet, they have an iron grip over the United States Congress and the Trump administration.
	So that's something we've got to watch very, very closely today.
	Because Trump's got to put America first, not Israel first.
	And we will call him out if he veers into Zionist territory.
	All right, anyway, that's all priority number nine.
	Get the USA out of foreign wars.
	Priority number 10, this is the Ron Paul priority.
	End the Fed and halt the fiat currency mass counterfeiting operation because it's only going to end in financial collapse.
	So, by the way, Ron Paul was right the entire time.
	Ron Paul has been right.
	The Fed is a criminal scam.
	It's a money counterfeiting and laundering operation.
	It's basically a confiscation scheme, and it's kind of a debt-based Ponzi scheme, too, when you involve the Treasury and how U.S. debt is created and sold, and then who ends up footing the bill for that debt, i.e., you and I. Imagine that.
	We don't get to spend the money that they create, but we are burdened with the debt that they create.
	Yeah, that doesn't sound fair.
	And it's not.
	It's a criminal scam.
	The answer is not to put the right person in charge of the Fed.
	The answer is to end the Fed.
	The answer is to end the dollar, end fiat currency.
	The only long-term answer is to decentralize money into the hands of the people.
	And that means gold and silver, or gold-backed currency that can't be counterfeited, or something like Bitcoin that also can't be counterfeited by governments.
	That's one of the best things about Bitcoin.
	Nobody can artificially create it.
	That gives it intrinsic scarcity, plus it has divisibility and transferability and non-confiscatability and so on.
	And that's why, ultimately, you know, the Biden regime has always been trying to shut it down.
	But Trump is pro-Bitcoin, and that's why when Trump won, Bitcoin went up to $74,000 or something like that, and gold dropped.
	Gold dropped quite a bit, like $80 in one day, something like that.
	Because, and by the way, that creates an incredible buying opportunity, I think, for gold and for silver.
	Because there's less panic in the world right now because Trump won.
	There's less panic.
	But I think that's premature for reasons I'll talk about here after I finish this list.
	All right, priority number 11, fix the broken election system.
	With paper ballots, nationwide voter ID, and same-day election results, we've got to get the voting machines out, done.
	That's been going on for decades, and that's how Democrats have rigged every election for decades.
	And as we talked about earlier, they came up with an extra 18 million votes in 2020.
	Those votes weren't real.
	They used the machines.
	The electronic voting machines have to go nationwide.
	No machines, all paper ballots, and the ballots have to be serialized, so each one has a unique serial number.
	Very simple.
	Nationwide voter ID, and you have to be a citizen to vote, and you have to show up and give your ID. Very simple.
	Same-day election results.
	No more excuses, no more delaying 3, 4, 12 days.
	Which is when Democrats cheat.
	They just keep printing and running ballots until they get the numbers they want.
	They're still doing that right now in Arizona.
	By the way, stealing it from Carrie Lake again.
	She's running for Senate right now.
	Stealing it from her.
	We'll see if they pull that off.
	Arizona is so freaking corrupt under the Democrats.
	The Democrats are just straight-out, full-blown criminals, and the Democrat Party needs to be absolutely gutted and dismantled to never rise again to curse this nation with its presence.
	The Democrat Party is a party of criminality, of child mutilations, child grooming and child trafficking, of money laundering and fraud, kickbacks and bribery.
	The Democrat Party is an insult to civilization.
	It is an insult to humanity.
	And it is an insult to the very founding principles of this nation, our constitutional republic.
	And I hope that once the truths come out, some of them that we've been talking about here, The Democrat Party ceases to exist and is shamed for all of history.
	Alright, priority number 12.
	You've got to end CIA control over the corporate media.
	And you need to yank the FCC broadcast licenses of all the media outlets that deliberately deceived America.
	That is, the ones that pushed out the propaganda of the Russian dossier during the Trump years.
	That deliberately pushed COVID lies.
	They're handed a memo and they're told, say this, say all vaccines are safe and effective and say that everybody has to take a vaccine and vaccines stop transmission.
	It was all lies.
	Brought to you by Pfizer.
	They're all working for the CIA. That's got to end.
	The entire corporate media Has proven itself to be treasonous, dangerous to this nation, and the enemy of this nation, the enemy of the American people.
	You can't trust them at all, and frankly, thankfully, most Americans do not trust the corporate media at all.
	All right, so we're going to segue into another discussion about what's coming over the next 10 weeks.
	But before I do that, I want to give credit, plug our sponsors today.
	The Satellite Phone Store, sat123.com, has been tremendous.
	They have made so many donations to critical people, people protecting the border in Texas, for example, people who ran ops, you know, rescue operations in North Carolina, people involved in Florida after the storms and flooding there.
	On and on.
	Many examples.
	The Satellite Phone Store is helping people in need.
	That's sat123.com.
	And don't forget, they now have, or Tina, her company, has a new line of what are called Escape Zone bags.
	Escape Zone.
	And you can find those at healthrangerstore.com slash escape bags.
	And these escape zone bags, one of them is a tactical ballistic backpack.
	It's got bulletproof material in it, and it's got four different Faraday sections in it to hide and protect your electronics, hides you from surveillance, protects electronics from being, you know, scanned or from credit cards from being scanned or IDs from being stolen, you know, through electronically and so on.
	Faraday bags built into the backpack.
	They've got a women's purse with that.
	They have a laptop bag like that.
	And the ballistic version of that with bulletproof material is coming in about a month.
	They've got Faraday bags for your mobile phones, for tablets, and other smaller electronic devices as well.
	These are high-quality, made-in-America, extraordinary products.
	High-end products with Faraday, you know, anti-electronic eavesdropping, and it protects all those electronics from EMP attacks.
	So if there's a solar flare or an EMP detonation, everything you have in these bags, escape zone bags, it's going to be protected from that.
	So go to healthrangerstore.com slash escape, E-S-C-A-P-E, escape.
	And also, of course, you can just shop at healthrangerstore.com for your storable food needs, superfoods, nutritional supplements, and so much more.
	All of that.
	And every time you shop with us there, you help support this platform as we're funding brighttown.com and brighttown.io, brighttownsocial.com.
	And giving away all kinds of things, massive donations through our church, Church of Natural Abundance.
	With your help, you know we raised $558,000, a little over half of which has been distributed and donated now.
	We just gave away another $15,500 worth of food locally over the weekend in Central Texas.
	I was also in touch with first responders.
	And law enforcement and checking about the fires that broke out and asking if anybody needed food assistance from the fires.
	And they told me, no, the fires were under control.
	And it wasn't a massive tragedy.
	We did not have to mobilize for that.
	However, we will be mobilizing for any upcoming emergency disasters.
	And it's your support of us that allows us to do that.
	So God bless you.
	Thank you for your support.
	HealthRangerStore.com All right, with that said now, let's talk about the next 10 weeks.
	Now, here's my working theory on this, and again, I don't want to puke on your parade, so to speak.
	I know you're all having fun and celebrating that Trump won and everything's going to be great.
	And yeah, you know, tyranny was defeated in this election.
	The media lies, they were defeated.
	Absolutely.
	The deep state was defeated.
	That is worth celebrating.
	But my spidey sense is tingling on this because something is a little too easy about this so-called transition of power.
	A little too easy where Kamala calls Trump and concedes.
	You know, Hillary Clinton didn't do that.
	There was a great post from Kanakoa, the great...
	On X says, The same media that dismissed
	Hunter Biden's laptop as Russian disinformation, perpetuated the very fine people hoax and portrayed Joe Biden as sharp as a tack, also lied to the public about the integrity of the 2020 election.
	Russiagate, along with disinformation campaigns and social media censorship from the left, fueled widespread distrust and deep frustration with our institutions, leading to the events of January 6th.
	Anyway, it goes on.
	I'm just trying to refresh your memory of how much the Democrats conspired to lie and cheat and fabricate false evidence and twist the intelligence agencies and the corporate media went along with it.
	All of this in order to discredit Trump.
	Do you really think that they're just going to accept another Trump victory right now in 2024?
	Do you think that they're done now?
	With all of their nefarious activities?
	You think that they've thrown in the towel?
	They're like, okay, we'll just accept Trump now because, you know, we're a democracy and we believe in fairness, right?
	I'm sorry.
	If you believe that, you're getting hoodwinked.
	The Democrats, the deep state, the corporate media, they don't believe in fairness one bit.
	They don't believe in democracy.
	They don't even believe in elections.
	That's why they never trust elections.
	They rig them.
	They know that they rig elections.
	They know elections are rigged.
	They know their media is fake.
	They know they lie.
	They know they fabricate false evidence.
	They know they censor the truth.
	They know it, and they do it maliciously.
	Do you think that they've just magically changed because all of a sudden they're going to listen to the will of the American people who rejected them?
	Seriously, you really think that all the deep state and all the Democrats right now going, Well, shucks.
	I guess we learned something really important now, didn't we?
	We learned, well, we'll just embrace Trump and then we'll do better next time.
	I'm sorry about that accent.
	I don't think that's a Democrat accent.
	But I don't know how to talk like a fag, so I can't do the Democrat way.
	So, anyway, there's no way they're going to accept this.
	Not a chance.
	What they're doing right now is they are pretending to be good people so that you let your guard down.
	They're pretending to accept the will of the people.
	The people have spoken.
	We shall accept it because we are a principled democracy.
	These are the same people who rigged the 2020 election on purpose, fabricated at least 18 million fake votes.
	These are the people who have still put peaceful J6 prisoners in prison to this day, and they ran the J6 PSYOP. They invoked it.
	It was an FBI operation.
	These are the people who run false flags, run hoaxes, lie, leak, everything.
	Lawfare against Trump.
	You know, all of a sudden now the DOJ is talking about, well, we're going to have to drop these charges against Trump.
	Proving it was all about election interference the entire time.
	The entire time.
	They tried everything to put Trump in jail.
	Everything.
	They lied.
	They leaked his tax returns and still couldn't find evidence of criminality.
	They tried to prosecute him in New York over a non-crime of having a realistic value on Mar-a-Lago that the bank agreed with when the bank made a loan, and Trump's companies paid the loan back with interest to the bank, and the bank was happy about that.
	But then New York comes along and says, well, we think that's a crime.
	Nonsense!
	These Democrats are demon rats.
	They are not honest.
	They are not going to accept this election.
	And what they're doing right now is they are plotting their next move.
	And their next move is going to happen within the next 10 weeks.
	This is my point here today.
	These people are not your friends.
	They're not civilized.
	They're not tolerant or accepting.
	They don't believe in democracy.
	They hate America.
	They hate Trump.
	And they hate Trump supporters most of all.
	They hate rural Americans.
	They hate Christians.
	They hate white people.
	They are so filled with hatred that when Trump won, a lot of these liberal white young women lost their minds.
	There were videos all over X of them just losing their freaking minds, screaming about now they believe that they are slaves.
	And that they're all going to be hunted down.
	I've never seen this level of mass mental illness, but they've been brainwashed so completely that By the Democrat brainwashing machine, you know, the Rachel Maddows of the world, The View, that show, the corporate media has been brainwashing these people into a level of extreme hatred and mass mental illness to the point where they do not believe in honoring election outcomes.
	They do not believe in America.
	They don't believe in the rule of law, and they will not accept Trump.
	They will not accept Trump.
	In fact, there's a march going on, protests in Chicago that are underway right now.
	Let me see if I can play some of this for you.
	So here they are with their Trump out signs of victory to the Palestinian resistance.
	So they've got the Antifa people out there.
	They're marching and screaming and they're hating on Trump.
	They're saying Trump is not their president.
	They're marching at night, too.
	Wondering where are the fireworks and where are the fires?
	Well, don't worry, that's coming.
	Oh, look, some of them are wearing masks.
	As if they think COVID is still a problem.
	Protesting out in front of what looks like a Trump property there.
	Let's see.
	It's got Free Palestine signs.
	My life is not yours to mandate.
	Obviously pro-abortion people.
	So far, these people look relatively peaceful.
	But believe me, they're just getting warmed up.
	They're just getting warmed up.
	And I gotta wonder, why are pro-Palestine people out there protesting Trump?
	Shouldn't they have been protesting Kamala and Biden?
	It was the Biden regime that sent all the bombs to Israel and all the money to Israel to bomb Palestinians in Gaza and to bomb Christians in Lebanon.
	Why aren't you protesting the current regime that's still in power?
	And Joe Biden just promised to accelerate sending more weapons to Ukraine and Israel.
	You know, hurry up and send more weapons.
	These people should be protesting at the White House, not the Trump property.
	Trump's not, you know, back in the White House yet.
	Trump's not the one calling the shots at the moment.
	But my point is that these protests, as peaceful as they are starting out right now, They're going to gain steam.
	Right now, the media's in shock.
	It's going to take them a couple of days to kind of regather themselves, like find all their lost marbles and drop them back into their empty skulls.
	But come next week, maybe even beginning this weekend, you're going to start to hear a narrative.
	It's going to sound something like, oh, we have to stop Hitler.
	We have to stop Hitler at all costs.
	If Trump is sworn in, we're going to lose this country.
	So yesterday, maybe even today, it's about, oh, let's just accept the outcome of this election because we're all Americans and we can live together and we're going to respect the transition of power.
	You fast forward about a week, it's going to be like, Hitler's going to murder us all.
	We have to stop him at all costs.
	And that kind of energy is what's coming.
	That kind of Antifa energy, and there's going to be contrived elements of the Free Palestine movement, which I don't even believe are really organic.
	I think that now, I think a lot of globalism or the globalist entities and Antifa entities are just kind of now pretending to be free Palestine people.
	I think they're just using that as a cover to protest Trump.
	But just like we saw in 2020, The anti-Trump protests are going to build and build and build to the point where who knows what's going to happen on or before January 6th.
	Now, of course, when the left protests on January 6th, they won't call it an insurrection.
	They won't call it worse than Pearl Harbor, the greatest threat to our democracy.
	They'll say they're saving democracy against Trump.
	You see, When they're attacking Trump, it's saving democracy no matter what.
	So we should expect a lot of shenanigans between now and January 6th and also January 20th.
	But even more, even more, the deep state, the intelligence community, they've got all kinds of weapons they can unleash over the next 10 weeks.
	And you know what these weapons are because we've talked about them.
	And I don't just mean military tech like, you know, An EMP attack, a cyber attack, a dirty bomb, a false flag nuclear detonation in a U.S. city, things like that.
	I'm talking about they have human weapons that Matt Brackett and Michael Yon warn about human weapons.
	Masses of illegals and military-aged males who have been trained as soldiers in other countries.
	They are pre-positioned in America.
	They have access to large supplies of weapons.
	And as I've warned before, there's going to be an activation day.
	These people are going to be activated to carry out sabotage operations against America.
	Oh, and you know what?
	There was a story on that.
	What is this?
	Yeah, here it is.
	A man in Tennessee was just arrested.
	This is on lawenforcementtoday.com.
	Man arrested after plotting unknowingly with an FBI informant to attack power stations with exploding drones.
	What did I warn you was coming?
	I said they're going to hit power grid substations, and I said they're going to use a lot of drone warfare.
	That's coming.
	And Arizona, by the way, is going to be ground zero for a lot of this.
	So all of you in Arizona, keep your powder dry.
	Be on alert.
	But from this story out of Nashville, Skyler Filippi, 24 years old, is going to face federal charges after he allegedly attempted to attack an electrical substation in Nashville using a drone laden with explosive charges.
	He's going like full FPS drone in America.
	Filippi reportedly told a confidential human source that he was seeking to attack large interstate substations Taking them down to, quote, shock the system.
	And he also stated his desire to attack a YMCA in a mass shooting.
	What a demon, man.
	Who would shoot up the YMCA? Those are the good people.
	YMCA. Why would you shoot up a YMCA? We used to just say, down at the Y. We didn't even call it the YMCA. We just called it the Y. Where you been all afternoon?
	We were at the Y. Swimming in that filthy pool, that public pool full of P at the Y. The pool at the Y is full of P. It's a lot of letters in there.
	Remember those days?
	Anyway, apparently this guy, this man, according to the article, had, quote, researched past attacks and decided that an attack with firearms would be insufficient.
	And instead opted to use an explosive-armed drone.
	Wow.
	So apparently he was doing something with a Nordic ritual, which included reciting a Nordic prayer.
	Where do you even find Nordic prayers?
	And discussing the Norse god Odin.
	He's like praising Odin and loading up the drone with explosives.
	And he told undercover FBI agents, quote, this is where the new age begins, and it was time to do something big that would be remembered in the annals of history.
	Okay.
	All right.
	Well, another psycho, a Norse god-worshipping psycho in this case.
	That's a new one.
	I wonder if we're going to get, like, Roman god psychos and Hindu god psychos and whatever else.
	But this is a Norse god psycho.
	My point is, like, this guy doesn't even fit what I think is coming.
	I think it's going to be foreign actors, mostly, that, yeah, they're going to use drones, they're going to use explosives.
	We know they've already smuggled IEDs into the country.
	We know they've smuggled surface-to-air missiles.
	We know that.
	I have knowledge...
	I can't share the details, but I have knowledge of U.S. Secret Service visiting and consulting with people in my orbit who know about such weapons and have been trying to warn about it.
	And to their credit, the Secret Service listened.
	And this is one of the reasons why Trump altered his flight schedules.
	And this may be why Trump is still alive today.
	Because they were trying to shoot the terrorists, whoever they are, they were trying to shoot Trump's plane out of the air.
	The point is they have these missiles smuggled into the U.S. right now to do that.
	They have RPGs.
	You know, watch Matt Bracken on X, by the way.
	And I'll have Matt back on, too, as a guest.
	They've got IEDs.
	They've got anti-personnel mines.
	They've got drones.
	Oh, I don't even think I've ever mentioned this before.
	But they've got heavy lift cargo or payload drones.
	Big heavy lift drones.
	Okay, so drones normally can't carry much, but they've got heavy lift drones that can carry serious payloads far across the border.
	So they launch them from Mexico, they cross the border into Arizona, and they drop off supplies.
	I mean, they just land and detach and then fly back home across the border.
	And these are being run by, you know, communist Chinese agents working with the narcos.
	So that's how they're smuggling in all kinds of weapons systems right now.
	It's happening in Arizona right now.
	And I'm told that a big portion of the border patrol there is all paid off.
	Because if you don't accept the bribes, they shoot you and kill you.
	So mostly the agents accept the bribes.
	And so it's a highway of weapons being brought into this country.
	I mean, that is a fact.
	And I interviewed Dave Hodges not long ago, who confirmed same thing from some of his intel sources, which are different from my intel sources, by the way.
	One of his is a former DHS. Also, you know, I've interviewed Jeffrey Prather, who was not my source on this particular issue, but Jeffrey Prather overall confirms the same thing is happening.
	Jeffrey Prather, former DIA, former DEA, My orbit of people that I interact with are a lot of former federal agents, law enforcement, former FBI, former special forces, you name it.
	And a lot of them are still in the loop of what's happening.
	And from time to time, there's certain types of information that they want to get out to the public.
	And that's when they come to me.
	And, you know, they'll send me redacted stuff.
	You know, they always secure the documents.
	You know, they honor operational security or OPSEC stuff, so they redact stuff.
	They never share anything with me that would compromise, you know, locations or any U.S. personnel or anything like that.
	They're very strict about that, and I don't push it.
	I don't, you know, I don't tell them, like, come on, man, give me the super secret.
	No, I don't want that stuff.
	I just tell them, you send me whatever you want made public and that's it.
	Nothing more.
	And they do.
	And then I share it with you.
	And I've done that, you know, repeatedly over the years.
	I'm telling you, I've seen the documents, redacted documents, of the weapons systems that are being smuggled into this country.
	Why do you think they're bringing them in?
	You know, Mayorkas was part of this.
	The smuggling routes are not just run by China and the narcos.
	There's an element of cooperation with the anti-American operators inside the Biden regime, which is really the Obama regime.
	There's a setup that has been put in place.
	There's a setup.
	Something is coming.
	Some kind of big, I call it the activation day.
	And for a while, I thought they could activate it before the election.
	Well, thank God they did not.
	We made it through the election.
	That's a miracle.
	We should give thanks to God for that.
	When are they going to activate it now?
	Is it between now and January 6th?
	Or before January 20th?
	Are they going to wait for Trump to get in the White House and then activate it and throw this disaster in his lap?
	See, that's the question that's going through my mind right now.
	When would be the most ideal strategic time for enemies of America and traders of America to activate this massive asset they have, which is estimated to be between half a million and one million enemy combatants in this country right now?
	Think about it.
	It's an army of maybe a million people with weapons.
	Huge access to massive weapons.
	I didn't even mention all the weapons, but, you know, it's mortars, it's RPGs, it's surface-to-air missiles or SAMs, it's anti-personnel mines.
	What else?
	Well, it's drones.
	Oh, it's IEDs also.
	It's also full-auto drop-in SEERS for their ARs, and it's illegal suppressors, it's night vision equipment, it's ballistic vests, you know, GPS, comms equipment, all of it, okay?
	All that stuff.
	They've got it all staged all over the country.
	When is the ideal day for that to be activated if you're the enemy of America and you're trying to bring down, especially trying to bring down the Trump administration or you're trying to stop Trump from coming into power?
	So, you know, think about this with me, logically.
	One possibility is they try to cause so much chaos before January 6th That January 6th can't even happen, and there's like a national emergency declared, martial law declared, you know, transition of power is put on pause because everything's chaos before January 6th.
	So that's one possibility, and we need to be thinking about that.
	I'm not trying to push people into fear or anything.
	Again, not trying to rain on your Trump parade, but everything's not great until...
	I mean...
	There are so many forces that want to stop Trump from being sworn in.
	Until we get to that milestone, you can't let down your guard, is all I'm saying.
	But anyway, that's possibility number one.
	Or do they wait for Trump to be sworn in and then they start this thing?
	And put it in Trump's lap and thereby force Trump to declare a national emergency and force Trump to declare, you know, some kind of restriction of civil liberties as they're fighting against the enemy forces.
	And then guess what?
	The media can claim, see, we told you Trump is Hitler!
	Trump suspended the Constitution!
	Trump declared martial law, just like we warned you.
	It fulfills their worst fears about Trump.
	So that may be the plan, is they wait for Trump to get sworn in, and then they unleash this chaos, and they force Trump to deploy the military domestically against this invasion of maybe up to a million terrorists.
	Or even take the smaller number, say it's only 500,000.
	500,000 is a massive army.
	That is a massive operation.
	That's like the total number of Ukrainian soldiers that have been Killed or wounded so far in Ukraine.
	You know, half a million enemy combatants in this country And our military has been depleted of weapons on purpose because Joe Biden sent all the munitions to Ukraine and Israel.
	So we don't have any artillery remaining.
	We don't have any shells for our tanks or hardly any.
	All the National Guard bases have been depleted.
	I've heard this.
	I've read about this.
	We've got almost nothing.
	There's almost no javelins, you know, anti-tank man pad systems left in the U.S., We don't have armaments domestically to fight a domestic war with an occupying enemy force.
	And that's probably the plan.
	All along was ship everything out of the U.S., And then get the U.S. invaded and activated with this invading enemy force and dump it all on Trump's lap and say, here, Trump, you deal with this.
	And then they blame Trump for everything that happens.
	Doesn't that sound like exactly what the Democrats in the deep state would do?
	Doesn't it sound like their kind of plan?
	And then along with that, you know, they crash the banking system, cyber attacks on the power grid.
	Who knows what else?
	You know, dirty bomb nukes, the whole deal.
	So I'm guessing that the Democrats may lay low and play nice all the way through January 20th, possibly.
	And then after that, they just unleash total hell on this nation and blame everything on Trump.
	Crash the whole system.
	Pull the rug, basically.
	A giant rug pull on Trump.
	That's my guess.
	Might be wrong on that.
	I hope I'm wrong.
	But what are all these weapons doing smuggled into the U.S.? And Trump threatens to deport all these people, so they don't have an unlimited window of opportunity to just sit around and wait.
	They're going to be activated soon after Trump gets sworn in, if not earlier, because if Trump has given enough time, he'll start deporting all these people.
	I mean, that'll happen quickly.
	I know that from talking to Texas law enforcement.
	All they need is for ICE to tell them that they'll start taking illegals off their hands, and what's going to happen is that the local jails in Texas, they'll start emptying the jails and sending the illegals over to ICE, and then they'll start arresting local illegals to put into the jails, and this will just be like a conveyor belt of arresting illegals, shipping them over to ICE, and ICE boots them out of the country.
	Through this method alone, local law enforcement in Texas can probably deport hundreds of thousands of illegals in one year.
	And that's just Texas alone.
	Maybe a million.
	So yeah, this can actually start very quickly.
	I know this is a fact because I've talked to the people who are going to do this.
	The only reason they're not doing it now is because the federal government, if you hand them over the illegals, they'll just release them back onto the streets.
	So it's pointless.
	You see?
	But this is coming.
	So, bottom line?
	Bottom line, folks.
	All right.
	It's a strange time.
	I mean, on one hand, we're all very happy that Kamala was defeated, although we don't trust that they're going to accept that in the long run.
	Very thankful that God helped protect Trump.
	Very thankful that the voters came out and just fed up enough with all the years of criminality and suffering and terrorism under the government regime and all the government agencies and the FDA and the CDC and the EPA. Nothing but terrorists.
	I'm so glad that so many people came out to vote.
	It was amazing.
	But, folks, and I believe that Steve Bannon would agree with me on this point because Steve Bannon is a warrior.
	Steve Bannon is a fighter.
	And I believe that Steve Bannon would say right now, don't you dare let your guard down.
	This is just the beginning.
	All we've established right now is a beachhead.
	Now the real fight begins.
	Politically, I mean.
	The real fight for America begins.
	And that is, you've got to defend your commander, you know, the Trump administration and Trump himself.
	You've got to defend them.
	You've got to keep him alive and get him sworn in.
	That's a milestone right there just to make it to January 6th or to make it to January 20th.
	Get him sworn in.
	And then, even then, now that just opens up, you know, chapter two of the battle for America.
	Then you got to beat back all the engineered chaos and the sabotage ops and the activation of all the enemies of America that are already here domestically.
	And that is a multi-year project all by itself.
	And America will become a battleground.
	And I believe that Steve Bannon knows it.
	And I think that he's exactly the right person to help lead America through this because he is not woke.
	He's not weak.
	He's not a soy boy.
	And, you know, look, I don't agree with Steve on everything.
	He doesn't agree with me on everything.
	But I honor the man's courage and will.
	And I think he's a great leader that we need right now in history to help us through this.
	And so I hope Team Trump leans on Steve Bannon very strongly through all of this.
	And one final thought on this.
	You know who the people are that I trust the most in this transition and in this new Trump administration?
	Who do I trust the most?
	The people who were targeted.
	The people who were persecuted.
	And that's why I believe Roger Stone's telling the truth.
	That's why I give Roger Stone the benefit of the doubt.
	You know, people criticize Roger on a lot of things, obviously.
	But I say, you know, they raided his home.
	They persecuted him.
	He knows what's at stake here because he has experienced it.
	This is why I give the benefit of the doubt to Steve Bannon, because they threw him in jail for months.
	Owen Schroer at InfoWars, he spent time in prison for simply speaking the truth.
	I know he's hardcore.
	I know Alex Jones is hardcore because look how they've tried to destroy him and they're auctioning off his company.
	The whole Sandy Hook trial was a total farce, total clown show of our legal system because they wanted to silence Infowars.
	I've been targeted in many ways, some of which you've never even heard about.
	I've been silenced, deplatformed, censored, threatened, death-threatened, you name it.
	All kinds of weapons that have been unleashed against me, so I know what this is like because I'm living it.
	RFK Jr., he's been living it.
	Ty and Charlene Bollinger, they've been living through the persecution, the media smears, the censorship, the debanking, all of it.
	You know, people like Sayer G at Green Med Info also, Dr.
	Joseph Mercola, everybody who was named part of the Dirty Dozen list, you know?
	I trust those people.
	Because they have been targeted and persecuted.
	And I trust the J6 prisoners.
	And when they are freed, by the way, I'm going to have a whole bunch of them on my show.
	I'm going to interview them, and we're going to help document their stories because those stories need to be told, God willing.
	I trust the people who have been persecuted because no one else can fully understand what it's like I saw Mike Cernovich posting the other day.
	He said, actually, it was election night.
	He said, tonight, now that Trump has won, this is the first night in four years that I will go to sleep and not fear the FBI kicking in my door at four o'clock in the morning, raiding my home and arresting me at gunpoint.
	Cernovich said that, and I know exactly what he means.
	Because the Biden regime...
	Has been and continues to be a tyrannical criminal regime of authoritarians and lawless tyrants who were never elected, who do not operate within the Constitution or the rule of law, and who only represent a threat to the American people and this constitutional republic.
	And the sooner they are removed from power, the better.
	But they will not go down.
	Calmly and peacefully.
	And whatever they're showing you right now, oh, we're so civilized and we're so friendly and we believe in a peaceful transition of power.
	Bulls**t.
	They don't believe in that at all.
	They're faking it.
	They're faking it to bide their time so that they can roll out their surprise plans to try to destroy Trump and destroy America.
	Bank on it.
	That's my conclusion today.
	Bank on that.
	That day is coming.
	So be prepared.
	And thank you for listening today.

	Thank you for everything that you've done for us and our platforms over these last four years, folks.
	I'm four years into this.
	If we can make it for the next 10 weeks, then that's something.
	We're not out of the danger zone yet, but we're beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, at least to hit that milestone in January 20th, get Trump sworn in.
	That's something.
	Look, I'm not an irrational worshiper of government.
	I do not believe government is the answer.
	The ultimate answer is to get rid of the entire beast system and defund government, downsize it by 90 or 100%.
	Get government out of our lives.
	That's the ultimate goal.
	But the interim goal is to get Trump and his team in there and start dismantling it from within and start holding these criminals accountable.
	That's an interim goal.
	And it's an important interim goal.
	So thank you for all your support that helped us get to this point.
	We're doing this together.
	We're all on Team Humanity.
	God bless you all.

	Welcome to today's episode of Decentralized TV here on brighteon.com, the free speech video platform.
	And if you love to live in a decentralized manner and have control over your own food supply and be more resilient and sustainable in living with healthy, nutritious food, you're going to love our guest today.
	It's Joel Salatin with Polyface Farms.
	And he is, I mean, he's a legend in the space of growing your own food and doing so.
	In a way that makes sense.
	And he's an author.
	He's a lecturer.
	He's got apprentice programs and so much more.
	He joins us with our co-host today, Todd Pitner, who joins us from Florida as storms are rolling through.
	Welcome, gentlemen, to the show today.
	It's an honor to have you both here.
	I'm sorry.
	Thank you.
	It's our delight and honor to be with you.
	Thanks, Mike.
	Good to see you as always.
	It's great to see both of you.
	And Joel, I gotta say, Todd and I are longtime fans of your work, and we have learned much from you over the years and implemented some of it, not all of it, but some of it.
	And tell our audience, if you would, please, because it's the first time we've had you on, Joel.
	Just give us a brief introduction of your farm, polyfacefarms.com, your work and your focus.
	Yeah, so we farm in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, which is on the western side of Virginia.
	We own about 950 acres.
	250 acres is open.
	700 is woodland.
	And then we rent another about 1,200 acres in the area from other people, additional pasture.
	So we're in pastured livestock.
	So we have salad bar beef, pigerator pork, pastured poultry.
	That includes turkeys, broilers, and eggs.
	We have rabbits, lambs, and ducks for duck eggs.
	So we're in all sorts of pastured livestock.
	We have, you know, we retail everything.
	So we don't wholesale.
	We retail, we ship nationwide, and there's about 22 salaries that get generated here from the farm.
	So it's quite an exciting place.
	Thank you for that intro, but you also, of course, help teach people about the methods that you are using.
	And I think, in addition to a lot of people appreciating your products, they also appreciate the knowledge that you've gained and shared over the years.
	You want to talk about that for a second?
	Sure, and thank you for that.
	Yes, we're very much a teaching farm, so probably the core of our teaching is we run a very formal apprenticeship and stewardship program.
	We started the apprenticeship program almost 30 years ago, and the stewardship program about 10 years later.
	Stewardship, a lot of people would call them interns, but we call them stewards because that more captures what we're after.
	Interns is now a little bit of a demeaning thing.
	Oh, you mean all you can do is get coffee for the boss?
	And so the steward kind of elevates them to a different place.
	And so we have that program.
	It's very, very formal.
	We take it very seriously and invest a lot of time.
	We have half a day a week is in what we call shop talk, where we do everything from You know, how to do small engine repair, to tie knots in a rope, and, you know, all sorts of these things.
	And then we do an on-farm two-day seminar every summer, you know, two or three of these, called the Polyface Intensive Discovery Seminar, shortened to PIDS. You know, Americans can't talk in multisyllabic words, so...
	We shorten it to PIDS, the acronym, and it's a two-day, six-meal seminar, worth coming just for the meals, but it's basically our most intimate, behind-the-scenes look for people that want to come and learn how to do these things.
	We butcher chickens, we butcher rabbits, we build compost, we cut trees, we mill timber, we make...
	You know, boards and move cows and move pigs and, you know, build ponds and roads and all sorts of things.
	So it's a very intensive due day.
	And then beyond that, I've written 16 books.
	So, you know, there's a pretty hefty, you know, book deal.
	I do a video curriculum that's now over 30 hours.
	We're trying to get to 100 in a couple of years.
	It's called Farm Like a Lunatic.
	And it's how to make a commercial white collar salary on a farm.
	It's not geared.
	There's a lot of material in that for small scale homesteader types.
	But this is really geared to commercial farmers.
	And I don't think there's anything really like it out there.
	And so that's a video curriculum that we do.
	And then we host gatherings.
	So starting in 2020, we began hosting gatherings here.
	And we built the Lunatic Learning Center.
	I mean, I'm the Lunatic farmer, right?
	So we have the Lunatic Learning Center, which can handle 300 to 400 people.
	And we do all sorts of educational gatherings for different organizations that want to get together and have great food in a pastoral bucolic setting, child-friendly, you know, ponds you can fish in, and very family-friendly as opposed to an urban conference center.
	A lot cheaper and a lot better food and a lot better air to breathe.
	So, you know, we do those as well.
	I'm the editor of the Stopman Grass Farmer, which is the world's leading trade magazine in pastured livestock production.
	And so, you know, we have that going on as well.
	So, yeah, there's a lot of outreach here.
	We do lunatic tours.
	Did one last Saturday.
	We've got our last one of the year coming up in a couple of weeks.
	Where people come for a two and a half hour hayride tour.
	And we do several of those a season to accommodate people that want to, you know, just kind of come and peek in and see what we do and get the, you know, get the dog and pony show.
	And I do a lot of speaking around the world.
	You know, I travel internationally and here, you know, speaking, doing seminars and things like that.
	So, yeah, it's a heavy education schedule as well.
	Absolutely.
	Let me bring in Todd here because, Todd, I know you want to take your food for us to the next stage.
	I don't know if you want to cut your own timber.
	But now we know where you can go to learn all those skills if you want.
	But how thrilled are you to have Joel as our guest?
	This is amazing.
	And my initial assessment is that Joel's Netflix subscription goes way underutilized based upon what he just shared in his schedule.
	So, Joel, you know, I'm a lunatic learner, and I did a lot of research prior to this interview, and I just kind of want to paint a picture for our viewing audience so we can kind of hone in on what polyface farming is.
	So I want to just kind of describe something and you tell me if I have it right.
	So I want us to imagine...
	An animal's mouth being a paintbrush, okay?
	And a large field, pasture field, being the canvas.
	Now, as I understand it, a poly-faced farm is a grass culture farm where the primary focus is on the grass as the canvas.
	And the animals, they don't just paint the canvas in one little area.
	That would be pretty ugly painting, right?
	They shift their painting daily and over time these grazing cells, I think is what you call it, paint the entire canvas or the entire field Into a beautiful, beautiful masterpiece that, when you zoom out, looks like a perfectly grilled ribeye steak on my dinner plate.
	Is that right, Joel?
	Do I have that right?
	Man, you're a great word picture guy.
	I like that.
	I've never had that.
	Express exactly that way, but being a fellow wordsmith, yeah, I'll take it.
	That's very good.
	You get an A+. All right.
	That's great.
	Well, let's do this.
	Polly face.
	That's very original.
	Can you unpack that for us, please?
	I shouldn't be thinking about the face of a soprano's mobster named Polly, right?
	What is Polly face for me?
	So polyface is, poly of course, is the prefix, Latin prefix for many.
	You know, you have polygots, polygons, polygons.
	So polyfaces, when we started, we knew that we were going to have multiple enterprises.
	So we weren't going to just be cattle.
	We were going to be multiple enterprises from trees to cows to whatever.
	We also knew that we wanted to be a people-centric farm.
	From day one, we aspired to populate the farm with loving, caressing caretakers, as opposed to the current USDA orthodoxy is, let's depopulate the farms, do it all with robots and machinery, and get rid of all the people on the farms.
	And so we wanted to be people, so that would be, you know, human faces.
	And so it was that idea of many of everything that we wanted to capture in the polyface.
	I've got a question.
	Yes, it's fascinating.
	No, I love that, because the first time I heard it, I was thinking polyphase, like, you know, from the science perspective, solid, liquid, gas, plasma.
	And then I was like, no, it's polyphase.
	Oh, okay.
	That makes more sense.
	Here's a question I have for you.
	I live in central Texas, and it's cattle country.
	And the way that I see cattle ranchers...
	I can't even say use the land.
	They abuse the land.
	They put way too many cattle on it.
	They end up with nutrient poor soils that they have to then treat aggressively with a lot of chemical applications, weed killers and so on.
	They always end up with not enough food Typically in the summer and then they have to supplement hay and the hay was cut from somebody else's field that grew nothing but weeds so it's like weed hay and and they cut down most of the trees and the cattle don't have enough shade and I'm like this can't be the way to do this.
	There's got to be a better way.
	What's your reaction when when you see an operation like that?
	Well, it's all over the world.
	It's not just in Texas, trust me.
	It's all over the world.
	And it is the normal.
	It is the normal.
	So what it is is a deviation.
	the important thing to realize is that what you're seeing, what you're describing, is a deviation from what nature's patterns are.
	So if you look at herbivores in nature, cows and herbivores, okay, let's deal with that.
	Cows and herbivores.
	So if you look at herbivores in nature, whether it's zebras in Africa, wildebeest on the Serengeti, those are the biggest wild herds now.
	Used to be the American bison.
	Before that, it was the Rx in Europe.
	But if you look at these herbivores around the world, what you see is they're doing three things.
	They're moving.
	They're moving onto new ground.
	A lot of times it's in search of food.
	Sometimes it's to get away from a predator.
	They're mobbed up.
	They're not spread out.
	They're bunched together pretty tightly.
	And that's for predator protection.
	So they're mobbing, they're moving, and they're mowing.
	They're not eating dead chickens and, you know, carry-on and stuff.
	They're actually eating, you know, material, vegetation material that they then ferment in their multi-stomachs.
	And so moving, mobbing, mowing is kind of the foundation, the platform of herbivores around the world.
	So if you violate any one of those, moving, mobbing, or mowing, if you violate any of them, you suddenly take an asset and turn it into a liability.
	And the fact is that some, you know, whatever, 95% of all cattle in the world We're good to go.
	Where herbivores for years and prairies together have built this soil because grass has a more efficient metabolism of solar energy than trees and bushes, than woody species.
	But the grass has a very short life cycle.
	That's the problem.
	It grows and it gets old and it turns to carbon.
	And so using the herbivore as a pruner to restart the rapid growth cycle of the grass actually collects a lot more solar energy and actually builds soil.
	We call this mob-stocking herbivorous solar conversion lignified carbon sequestration and fertilization.
	I love that.
	That makes perfect sense.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Todd, go ahead.
	I know you want to jump in.
	Wow.
	Well, you know, again, in my research, what I realized is in your whole polyface farming practice, there is a set of heroes.
	And I had no idea who these heroes were.
	So you need to let me know if I have this right.
	And everybody out there, excuse the language, I'm just being technical here.
	When animals graze, shit happens, right?
	And as we can infer, massive cow patties, they attract flies, which ultimately terrorize the cows because flies bite the butts that feed them, apparently.
	Now, they aren't, because they're just not very smart, Joel.
	So, to combat the flies, what do you do?
	You and your team do.
	You send in the real heroes, which are the chickens.
	Tell us about how the chickens solved the fly biting problem, Joel.
	Yeah, so...
	If you look in nature, the egret on the rhino's nose, the macaws, the birds that follow the herbivores, if you look at any nature program, there's all these birds swarming behind the herbivores.
	The bird-herbivore relationship is one of the most Synergistic and symbiotic relationships in nature.
	And so we're looking at these cow pies and the flies and all this, saying, well, how can we get birds behind the cows?
	And so we follow the cows with a movable, portable hen house.
	We call it the egg mobile.
	And the egg mobiles follow the cows about, you know, three to four days.
	That's the fly cycle.
	And the chickens then, they're attracted, they learn very quickly that in those cow pies are these fly maggots, larvae, fly larvae, they're maggots, and so that pays the salary for the chickens to tear them all apart,
	and they take that And they make it cover way more ground, which eliminates the repugnancy zone for when the cows come back in to graze, because it's now spread the fertility out into a more metabolizable, assimilable environment.
	volume on a larger area of ground and they've eliminated the flies and of course the cows have just been there so that grazing and that exposes the grasshoppers and the crickets and all the other you know life that's down in the pasture so the chickens harvest you know they scoop all that up and the chickens then convert all that and turn it into the most amazing eggs you can ever imagine so instead of using grubicides and parasiticides and things like that You know,
	systemic things, injections and porons that make the cow so anti-insect that kills them.
	Anything that kills bugs, I probably don't want to eat.
	So instead of doing that, we use the chickens as a biological sanitizer behind the cows and a fertility engine, and so the animals do the work instead of us.
	So we don't have to buy anything from off the farm, we don't have to put the cows through the head gate, anything of that sort of thing.
	Yes, the chickens, I wonder where you were going with that, Todd.
	The chickens are the heroes because they then, not only do they do all this work for us, But guess what?
	They lay eggs.
	They lay eggs as a byproduct of the pasture sanitation.
	And so it's a wonderful, positive contribution.
	Well, I'm glad you mentioned that, Joel, because now I'm realizing that I've been doing it wrong when I take my dogs for a walk out to the areas where I have Donkeys on a lot more acreage and my dogs try to eat the donkey poo.
	I think I need to have chickens eating the cow poo instead of my dogs eating the donkey poo.
	But I just gave up teaching them not to.
	I'm like, go for it.
	It's fermented grass.
	Maybe they need some probiotics.
	I don't know.
	But just let them go for it.
	They can have the donkey poo.
	They actually enjoy it.
	Now, if you can teach your dogs to lay eggs...
	That would be a trick, yeah.
	You're gonna be in hot cotton.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Now, I want to ask you then about this global war against ranchers.
	And there is this idea now, especially among those who absolutely despise carbon dioxide, that they think that all cattle are bad, that all ranching is bad, even that all meat is bad.
	And it seems like they're missing a very important point is that you can take land even think about Nevada or West Texas or Oklahoma many places you can take land that barely functions for anything else but through the use of things like cattle They can convert,
	like you mentioned earlier, the solar energy goes into the grass, the cow goes out and gathers the grass and even finds its own water sources, if you've got them anywhere around, and it gathers that and it concentrates that into a nourishment product for humanity.
	So cows can take land that has virtually no value and they can actually add value to it for humanity.
	Why do some people hate this process?
	Well, it's kind of what you mentioned earlier is that most ranchers are not actually increasing the soil.
	They're not actually helping the land with their cattle ranching.
	They're actually depleting the land.
	So when you look at You know, documentaries like Cowspiracy and What the Health and things like that, you know, their data collection is based on convention, you know, the normal stuff and the orthodoxy of the day.
	And that orthodoxy is not what we do.
	We're a complete lunatic fringe.
	We're, you know, out here.
	And so those scientists are not coming here collecting data.
	And so what's happening, so if you're collecting data from a dysfunctional system, it might lead you to a dysfunctional conclusion.
	And so that's where this war on ranchers is developing.
	And so in the first part of these documentaries, I'm sitting there, you know, when they're...
	You know, impugning conventional ranching and agriculture.
	I'm sitting there, yeah, yeah, boy, preach it, preach it.
	But the answer is not veganism.
	The answer is not getting rid of all the cows.
	The answer is, well, you know, how did the bison do it?
	How did the wildebeest do it?
	How can we do this to actually grow more soil?
	That's the answer.
	I mean, it should give us all pause to realize that 500 years ago, North America produced more More food than it does today.
	Now, it wasn't all eaten by people.
	We had 2 million wolves to feed.
	That was 40 million pounds a day just with the wolves.
	We had 200 million beavers.
	They ate more vegetables because they're herbivores.
	They ate more vegetables than all the people in North America today.
	Audubon sat under a tree in 1820 in Massachusetts.
	He couldn't see the sun for three days because the passenger pigeons flying over blotted out all the sun for three days.
	That's before Cargill, Tyson, and Purdue.
	And so it was really actually extremely abundant and had more animals, if we put humans into the animal category, it had more animal weight on it 500 years ago than it does today.
	So the question is not...
	You know, are we overpopulated?
	Do we have too many cows or whatever?
	No, the question is, how do we move to those ancient patterns with modern technology?
	Yes.
	How do we move to those ancient patterns and recapture that abundance that was here in the past?
	And it means, so we move our cows every day to mimic the movement of the bison.
	They didn't stay in one place.
	We move our cows every day using high-tech electric fence with computer microchip energizers.
	And, you know, we can do this for the first time in human history.
	We now have the technology to actually do the movement a little better than fire and wolves and a little more control.
	We can literally put a steering wheel, a brake, and an accelerator on, you know, a herd of 500 cows and steer them across the landscape with the same precision as a zero-turn mower on a golf course.
	That's pretty cool.
	Yeah, very cool.
	And let me add one more thing before Todd comes back in.
	In Europe in particular, one of the ways they attack farming and ranching is they've identified this one element now, this one element called nitrogen, Is now apparently the enemy of mankind for some reason.
	We used to call it fertilizer.
	Now they say it's a pollutant that's destroying the world because animals produce it as a byproduct of their metabolism.
	And so they're shutting down farms across the Netherlands and many European countries because of the nitrogen.
	How does your farm deal with nitrogen in a positive way?
	Oh boy, this is always a difficult one, because I've been to the Netherlands half a dozen times doing seminars, and the problem in the Netherlands is that they are importing shiploads and shiploads and shiploads of grain out of Paraguay, Uruguay, and Brazil, and turning the whole country into a toilet.
	The problem is imbalance, okay?
	It's not the...
	They're putting on, they're raising so many animals with all this imported grain, feedstocks.
	I mean, for example, I'm talking to a young couple, one of the last seminars I did there.
	Young couple, the dairy couple, you know, came in.
	I said, you know, I got to meet them.
	I said, so, you know, you're dairying.
	How many cows do you have?
	They said 100.
	I said, so how big is your place?
	Ten acres.
	Oh my!
	Okay.
	You can't put a hundred cows on ten acres without having excess manure.
	So the countryside smells like poop because the canals, you know, Netherlands is a low country, all the canals are clogged up with all this poop and this nitrogen is growing vegetation and willows clogging up the canals so the country can't drain.
	Well then the water systems don't work because of the clogging up of the vegetation.
	And so the country is just over-saturated with this.
	So what we do on our farm, A, we maintain a balance.
	For example...
	Our pastured broilers.
	We put 75 or 76 in a 10 foot by 12 foot by 2 foot tall field shelter.
	We move them every day to a fresh spot.
	We're putting on 200 pounds of nitrogen per acre on that pass.
	We don't touch that square foot for a whole year.
	To allow three to four growth cycles come off of that grass to metabolize that nitrogen before the chickens go back on.
	The fact is, it doesn't matter whether it's organic, chemical, or anything else.
	If you put more nitrogen on than the climate, your context can metabolize into vegetation, that nitrogen is going to go somewhere.
	It's either going to go in the atmosphere or it's going to go in the aquifer or the groundwater.
	It's going to go somewhere.
	And so we have to be appreciative of balance.
	So in the wintertime, when the soil is dormant and can't eat and the actinomycetes and the mycelium and the earthworms are hibernating, we feed hay for the cows.
	If we got a blizzard and you run out of grass, we feed hay to the cows under a shed roof awning with a carbonaceous diaper of wood chips I'm so glad
	to hear that.
	Todd, I mean...
	See, to be a good rancher, you also have to understand the chemistry of what's going on, the cycles.
	Absolutely.
	And so I just have one question for Joel then pertaining to that.
	Joel, when did God actually sit down with you to give you the inside scoop on how to create the systems like you have?
	Joel, come on.
	Give it to us.
	You know, it's really very simple.
	Let me say it this way.
	You know, early on, so we came to the farm in 1961.
	I'm four years old.
	Dad's trying to figure out how do you make a living on a farm?
	And, you know, it was gullies and rock pile.
	And I remember as a kid walking the whole farm and never setting foot on a piece of vegetation.
	It was that thin and that poor.
	And so, as Dad was looking at these systems, he said, well, you know what, let's just look at what nature does.
	Let's see what nature does.
	And it's really very simple.
	Let's just take a simple phrase.
	Animals move.
	When you look at nature, animals, they don't stay in one spot.
	You know, there isn't a spot where the...
	Where the bison stands, they move.
	Well, if you just take that simple phrase, animals move, well, suddenly, if they move, I've got to control them because the neighbors don't want them.
	I've got to be able to control where I want them to go.
	I've got to have shelter for them because they're going to be moving in and out of trees and different things.
	I've got to be able to feed them.
	I've got to move their feed around.
	I've got to move their water around.
	So over the years, we've put in 12 miles of buried water line around all of our fields from high permaculture-style ponds that gravity feed, no electricity, no pumps, that gravity feed down 12-mile grid of water that gives us 70 PSI water around all our fields from ponds up on high ground.
	Wow.
	That's the kind of infrastructure development.
	So people come and say, wow, this is amazing.
	You know, they can't believe that this is done.
	The whole thing was from a simple phrase, animals move.
	And as soon as you posit that, then a whole other bunch of stuff comes out.
	Like, you know, how does nature build soil?
	Well, it doesn't do it with 10-10-10 chemical fertilizer.
	It certainly doesn't do it with Roundup and DDT. It builds it with carbon.
	Carbon.
	Very simple.
	Alright, well, if soil is built with carbon, how do we get more carbon in the soil?
	You know, these are very simple concepts with profound, you know, profound ramifications.
	So our creativity and innovation, the things that we've put together, are not because we sat down and said, you know, had a focus group and said, hey, let's see how we can be a creative farm.
	You know, it was simply Phrases like that, you know, carbon build soil, animals move, simple phrases like that, and the ramifications then just, you know, bring the inventions.
	Joel, what you said is so fascinating to me, because...
	Similar projects that I've been working on, I have some questions.
	In order to establish that 70 PSI, what's the vertical height differential that you have on those ponds?
	And I'm very curious how you have the intake from those higher elevation ponds too.
	Do you happen to know that...
	Yeah, so it's.432 pounds per vertical foot.
	So every foot per vertical gives you.432 pounds.
	So it's a hundred and something feet.
	Yeah, so, yeah, 70, 0.432, yeah, 162 feet.
	Okay, that's awesome.
	And then, how do you have the intake from that?
	Do you have a, because you don't want to have a pipe that goes over the berm and into the pond because you have priming problems.
	Do you have a pipe that goes under the berm?
	That's right, that's right.
	The pipe goes through the base of the dam.
	Yeah.
	But here's the critical thing.
	I'll mention two critical things.
	Boy, we're really getting it.
	I appreciate it.
	I don't ever get asked this kind of stuff.
	Well, we're interested.
	Yeah, good.
	All right.
	So it goes to the base of the dam.
	And the problem is that in an earthen dam, when you put a PVC pipe through there, let's say a two, two, two and a half inch PVC pipe.
	Oh, it'll crack.
	You get movement.
	Not that.
	The problem is you can't really seal it up with dirt.
	You can put the best clay in there as possible, but there will be seepage down along the slick side of that pipe.
	Okay, okay.
	So the key to eliminate any seepage or leakage is to put in, we use three, three just pond collars.
	They're called pond collars.
	So we just kind of, you know, with a shovel, we dig a little bit of trench around and then we just lay in something, you know, eight inches or so, mix up some sackcrete and just put three nice big globs of sackcrete, one at the front of the dam, one at the end of the dam, one in the middle of the dam.
	That way when that water seeps down along the edge of that pipe, it has to go out around this, you know, maybe 12 inches out around this glob of concrete.
	Wow!
	You put three of them in, they're called pond collars.
	You can buy them commercially, you know, PVC pond collars for plenty of money, but we just throw in a big glob of, you know, a nice big glob of concrete around.
	So that's the first thing.
	The second thing is that the best water in a pond is from 16 inches below the surface.
	No kidding.
	If you pull the water off the bottom of the pond, it's kind of funky and anaerobic.
	If you pull it off the top of the pond, it's full of, you know, fly legs and leaves and bird poo.
	And so the best water in a pond is from 16 inches under.
	So we go through the bottom of the pond with the PVC and then on a flexible pipe, you know, like a vacuum pipe hose.
	It's got rib in it, but it's flexible.
	And that then...
	He goes out.
	I have a floaty and a piece of metal so that the intake screen hovers at 16 inches below the surface.
	So the level of the pond is, it's always pulling the water off of 16 inches.
	So let me ask you this, for an intake screen, what I've done, I've got PEX pipe going into, I took a crate and I wrapped it in like poly fencing to have an intake filter.
	I don't know if that's a good idea.
	It seems to be working.
	What do you use for an intake filter?
	Well, I've made intake filters out of just taking a piece of pipe and just take a little eighth-inch drill and just drill a bunch of holes in it, you know, and plug the end with a piece of round stick.
	But for our main intakes, we buy a screen.
	You can get, you know, true blue PON intake screens.
	Yeah.
	And that's probably worth the money because, you know, they really, they last pretty much forever and they're really good.
	Well, very cool.
	You answered a great question for me here today, a practical question that I'm working on right now, because I live on a piece of land that's got elevation, that's got natural rainwater collection, but as you know, the rainwater wants to collect where it's low, not where it's high.
	But we want water high because we want the energy off of the high water.
	So are you able to collect it high, or do you pump it high?
	One of the advantages that we have on our farm is we do have a lot of elevation.
	We have a thousand feet of elevation difference on our farm.
	We have ravines up in the mountain that we can put up.
	I mean, yeah, it does give you pause to realize the Shenandoah Valley here where we are is 80 feet long and 20, I'm 80 feet, 80 miles long and 20 miles wide that if we had spent, if we had spent the time building ponds that we spent moving dirt to plant corn that eroded all of our topsoils.
	You know, ever since the Europeans came.
	Today, we would be flood-proof and drought-proof and would have literally recreated Eden.
	But instead, we plowed for, you know, corn to feed cows that shouldn't have it anyway.
	And eroded all the soil and now we have no soil and no ponds, no water and floods and droughts.
	So we can really change the landscape dramatically with a little bit of intentional redevelopment.
	That's what we love about what you're doing, Joel.
	Well, Todd, what do you think about that discussion just there?
	Yeah, well, I was just thinking as you guys were discussing, I'm like, man, do I interrupt?
	Do I not interrupt?
	Because I've been working on my own filtration system that has a bored-out carburetor and a dual quadrobustion system that'll impress the heck out of you both.
	I have an old plastic crate.
	That's my filter.
	Your discussion goes right over my head.
	But Joel, I do have a question for you.
	You being a natural farming savant, you and your family and your team, what is the enemy of natural farming, if you could point to it, Joel?
	The enemy of natural farming, oh boy, I was going to say something and I thought, no, I'm going to give you two.
	The two big enemies are cheap food, Just a cheap food mentality that food ought to be cheap.
	A philosophy that chicken is chicken, milk is milk, cabbages are cabbages.
	It's all the same.
	So just grow it as cheap as you can.
	It's just stuff.
	And the other main enemy is government programs, the regulations and the food police and government policy.
	Because right now, the official position of the USDA is that Froot Loops and Lucky Charms are more nutritious than beef.
	I saw that!
	Unbelievable.
	Yeah, it is.
	It is unbelievable.
	I mean, you know, what kind of whatever, you know, mental gymnastics do you have to do to say something like that?
	It's just nuts on the surface, but, you know, that's where we've come.
	And there's no fruit in the Fruit Loops, people.
	It's not even spelled fruit.
	It's F-R-O-O-T. It's fake Fruit Loops, actually, and with fake color.
	It's not even food in my book.
	That's fake food.
	But yeah, I would much rather have a really nicely grilled hamburger than a bowl of Fruit Loops.
	Are you kidding me?
	Oh yeah, absolutely.
	And trust me, your multi-quadrillion microbes would also like it too.
	Yeah, right.
	Because, you know, your microbes inside, you know, they didn't, ancestrally, they didn't grow up adapting to Froot Loops.
	They grew up enjoying real food.
	Yeah.
	Hey Joel, quick question.
	We, with this show, we like to bring solutions to our viewing audience, and most of us don't have hundreds of acres to be able to farm, so it's a little elusive as far as how we would benefit from polyphase farming.
	But can you give us a little insight to that?
	For example, You have me salivating a little bit when you said you're not wholesale, you're retail.
	That means I can go order some beef from you, some what?
	What all can I order from polyfacefarms.com?
	What a setup, Todd.
	I'm going to reach through this Zoom call and give you a hug.
	I know where you're going with this.
	First of all, yes, we do ship nationwide.
	We ship every Tuesday and Wednesday of the week.
	You can get beef, pork, chicken, turkey, eggs, And cheese, we work with an A2A2 grass-based dairy near us that does all grass-based A2A2 milk.
	They make their own cheese.
	And our website, polyfacefarms.com, has the whole thing on it.
	But for a small acreage, let's say you've got a backyard or something.
	You know, the first, I kind of have a recipe to go forward with it.
	One is to start enjoying your kitchen.
	You know, we've never had such techno gadgetized kitchen.
	It has never been easier to cook from scratch.
	And no culture has ever so profoundly advocated that participatory, you know, the participatory authenticity and accountability that comes from viscerally participating in food prep.
	But it's never been easier.
	I mean, we've got crockpots, instapots, we've got time bake, we've got hot, cold running water, refrigerators.
	Ice cream makers, bread makers, I mean, good grief.
	It's never been easier.
	So domestic culinary arts, to me, are kind of the beginning of kind of an awakening, an awareness of what real food is.
	I mean, the difference between a homemade food Apple pie versus one out of the, you know, Piggly Wiggly.
	There's just no comparison.
	You know what the difference is between a homegrown tomato and a tomato shipped in from California.
	Of course, both of you guys are down south and maybe you don't get shipped in tomatoes very much.
	But, you know, if you're north of the Mason-Dixon line, Tomatoes are all cardboard because they're all selected for shippability.
	If your whole cultivar selection is can this thing jiggle around in the back of a tractor trailer for 1500 miles on the way to the supermarket, you're going to have a tomato that's cardboard and your kids won't like it because it tastes like cardboard.
	So real food is different.
	It tastes better.
	It's nutritionally superior.
	I mean, take our eggs, for example.
	We were one of 12 farms several years ago that participated in a survey, a nutritional survey.
	To debunk the notion that eggs are eggs.
	And so we sent our eggs into the lab and they came back.
	I'll just pick one item of it, folic acid.
	Folic acid is really important, especially for pregnant women.
	The USDA nutrition label says there's 48 micrograms of folic acid in an egg.
	Our eggs came back 1,038.
	We're not talking about 10% difference.
	We're talking about major differences.
	I mean, riboflavin, grass-finished beef, 300% more riboflavin in grass-finished beef than grain-finished beef.
	I mean, these are real numbers, and that reflects itself in its taste and everything else.
	Yeah, thanks for the plug, Todd, and I'd be glad to If somebody doesn't know where to start, yeah, you can get some from us.
	If you've never had this kind of food, treat yourself.
	Absolutely.
	But I would also say, can I ask some of that?
	Folks, backyard chickens.
	I mean...
	I've been raising chickens for 15 years, and my dogs get the eggs.
	We get the eggs.
	I give them away.
	Just like Joel said, they're the best eggs that you can get.
	You can recycle kitchen scraps.
	I happen to get sometimes food from my own store operation that is rejected, or sometimes we get a shipment of something that's full of bugs, like we'll get a shipment of oats full of bugs.
	Well, guess what?
	My chickens love oats with bugs, you know?
	Right?
	So, boom, they get that.
	But, Joel, I want to ask you this related to it.
	We are told by the powers that be that the best way to produce food is to eliminate all farming and ranching and cattle and instead build cricket factories and then bring in these raw materials from thousands of miles away to create fake processed meat that has all kinds of chemical taste enhancers and excitotoxins in it and And yet,
	when they have tried that commercially, as you've watched, the fake meat companies have gone out of business because it tastes like crap, number one.
	And it's all GMO crap or whatever.
	Nobody wants that stuff.
	So...
	How could they be wrong?
	Here's the major problem with all that stuff.
	The problem is that when you do lab cultured meat, so I'm talking about where you're actually trying to culture from actual meat.
	Right.
	Not making veggies.
	Not the fake soy stuff, yeah.
	Yeah, not make veggie burgers.
	We're actually trying to culture.
	The reality is that for all the hype and all the excitement and all the venture capital, billions of dollars that's gone into this over the last 10 years and promises that by now, according to the stuff that they were saying six years ago, by now they were going to be 30% of the meat industry and prices were going to collapse and the livestock industry, all the ranchers are going to go out of business because blah, blah, blah.
	The reality is they haven't been able to actually culture anything bigger than a one-gallon jug because it turns out, amazingly, that your blood vessels, heart, lungs, kidneys, and livers, your body, our body and the cow's body, our bodies are really...
	Pretty cool things for filtering and circulating and all that.
	But if you're culturing in a vat and you're trying to grow actual cloned meat in a vat, you don't have a heart.
	You don't have blood vessels.
	You don't have livers and kidneys.
	All you have is bubbles.
	So you can bubble to get movement.
	And you've got mechanical filters to move waste.
	And so as soon as you get any bigger than about a gallon jug, as you get up to like a five-gallon bucket full of this stuff, suddenly it becomes overwhelmed with waste because the The environment simply does not have the kind of amazing circulation and filtration systems that our bodies have.
	And so immediately everything becomes toxic and it just implodes on its own toxicity because it can't It can't eliminate its wastes.
	It can't poop and pee like we do.
	We just do it, and we don't even think about it, you know?
	But these cultured things, it's incredible.
	So, I don't know.
	I mean, man, you know, the creativity of humans is really big, but boy, this is one that I just don't know how this is going to work out, you know, to go to any kind of scale on it.
	I just don't see it.
	Yeah, I mean, I don't want to eat...
	Meat grown in the matrix, anyway.
	You know what I mean?
	It's like, no thanks, man.
	No thanks.
	It gets all nasty and putrid there, and I guess that ends up in fast food taco meat or something.
	Who knows?
	No thank you.
	Listen, for the theme of your program here, let me assure you that my biggest problem with all of this fabricated food, think about this.
	The more you reduce the decentralization of food, the more you centralize it, And so when our food is coming through billion-dollar laboratories through that funnel, if that's the funnel that people are eating food from, That becomes very easy to control with nefarious agendas.
	Just think about COVID. Think about COVID in 2020.
	What would have happened if in April of 2020, our country, our nation, instead of being fed by 300 centralized processing plant funnels, had been fed instead from 30,000 decentralized community-based processing funnels? decentralized community-based processing funnels?
	Would we have had as big a shock?
	The answer is an unequivocal, of course not.
	We would have adjusted much quicker because it's easier to turn a speedboat than an aircraft carrier.
	When you're on Rocky Shoals, you don't want to be in an aircraft carrier.
	You want to be in a speedboat where you're nimble and you can adapt to the changing vicissitudes of the context.
	Yep, exactly.
	Exactly.
	Now, Todd, the last question is going to be yours because Joel's been with us, if you can believe it, almost an hour.
	I know, it's crazy.
	I want to be respectful of your time, but time is flying here because we're so thoroughly enjoying your wisdom.
	But Todd, go ahead.
	Thank you.
	Joel, I have a personal question.
	Last Saturday, a year ago, was the final installation date of my food forest in my back property.
	It was foodforestabundance.com.
	Jim Dick Gale and his team, we interviewed Jim.
	Awesome, awesome team.
	Two animal-related questions.
	I've been, you know, it's so abundant, there's life coming out of the woodwork.
	Out of the woods, if you will.
	Are you going to talk about your raccoons?
	No, no.
	Because I guarantee you, Joel and I have the same opinion about your raccoons.
	Probably, no.
	I've begun to notice some large rats that look like they relocated from McDonald's dumpsters.
	And also...
	When the sun is shining, there are a few vultures who consider my backyard their sunbathing spa.
	And my question, Joel, should I let nature be nature and just chill?
	Or would you counsel me to get some pellet gun target practice in, Joel?
	What say you?
	Yeah, so first of all, the vultures, so if those are what we call buzzards, in other words, they're not hawks.
	Right.
	Are your trees the tallest in the area?
	Yes.
	Okay.
	So those vultures, they're just looking for a place to perch and roost and look for...
	Actually, you know, the vultures are very good because when something dies, they clean it up.
	Okay.
	If it weren't for the vultures, we'd have a very smelly world, let me tell you.
	Okay.
	So the vultures, as opposed to hawks.
	Now, now...
	What would be wonderful is if you had some hawks move in, because the hawks would get the rats, or especially owls.
	Owls, you know, they're nocturnal.
	Rats are nocturnal.
	So, do you know what the rats are eating?
	What are the rats eating?
	I spread deer corn every morning for my deer.
	Oh, yeah.
	And my raccoons.
	Oh, the reality comes in.
	Well, you're feeding the rats.
	Let me ask you this.
	Could you change your deer feeding infrastructure or regimen To keep the rats out.
	I'm thinking of an elevated feeder or something.
	Sure.
	I can certainly do that.
	And let me be clear.
	There's two rats.
	They live in the same place.
	They come out.
	I see them.
	They skedaddle when I go in.
	So it's not an infestation of rats.
	But I didn't know if rats, period, suck.
	You know, in your environment, or I've come to appreciate and realize that things that I previously thought were bad in a permaculture ecosystem are actually good, so that's where I'm trying to wonder, do I let nature be nature?
	I have a rat-eating dog, by the way.
	My dog will capture and gobble rats because she thinks they're bunnies.
	She's a bunny gobbler, and now she's getting rats.
	Maybe I could loan her to you.
	Yeah, I would say this.
	If they're not causing any real problems, I wouldn't have any problem with them at all.
	Generally, I would say if the rats become an infestation, we probably have some cats move in.
	Okay.
	Cats will follow.
	There's, you know, there's feral cats.
	I'm sure you see feral cats from time to time.
	Sure.
	And if you have a rat issue, feral cats will move in and handle it.
	Nature's a pretty, you know, there's a lot of communication out there.
	There really is.
	There's a lot of people on the phone and Netflix and the radio out there, you know.
	And so...
	They're communicating.
	That's good information.
	Just jokes aside here, but Todd has like a pet raccoon that he really, you know, a very friendly family of raccoons that's in his backyard.
	And I tease him about it because me having chickens and living in the country, All I know, raccoons are chicken shredding terminators.
	But for Todd, because he doesn't have chickens, the raccoons are super friendly and eat out of his hand and everything.
	I mean, we love that about what you're doing, Todd.
	It's just, if you had chickens, you would probably see a different side.
	Yeah, probably.
	Todd, all I can say is, far be it from me, look, quasi-domesticating a wild animal is always a cool thing.
	When I was in Australia, once I met a lady who had quasi-domesticated a wombat.
	And she was feeding it carrots.
	And we went over to her house and come see the wombat.
	Every evening that wombat would waddle up and get his carrots.
	And I just was able to reach out and nobody was able to touch a wombat.
	And it was really cool.
	So I get the emotional, kind of spiritual, kind of cool thing of quasi-domesticating a wild animal.
	But if you do, Todd, decide to raise chickens, Make sure that you have a Imagine All Line, you know, impregnable...
	Or those chickens will be raccoon dinner, let me tell you.
	Well, I would have to take out my HOA board of directors first to be able to have backyard chickens.
	So I think the raccoons will get a pass.
	Remember, raccoons have opposable thumbs and they carry Leatherman tools to loosen bolts and screws and things.
	They can open anything.
	Very smart.
	Raccoons are very smart.
	They sure are.
	All right.
	Well, Jill, this has been a real pleasure.
	I just want to go out your website again.
	Polyface, F-A-C-E, polyfacefarms.com is the website.
	And to those of you watching, you can purchase his products here, some of the products, but also learn from him.
	Here's some of the books, and you can learn more about the farm there on the website.
	Or you can even become a, where is it?
	You can join, you can have seminars, events, reservations.
	You can be an apprentice.
	So a lot of activities there.
	Joel, anything else you want to add before we wrap this up?
	you No, you've been delightful to be with, and all I'll say is that When I encourage people, I want to tell you that your decisions matter.
	And if you don't like the world we're in right now, the world we're in right now is a physical manifestation of the cumulative decisions that have been made throughout history.
	And the world we have in 40 years that your grandchildren will inherit will also be the world that's a manifestation of the decisions that we make between now and 40 years from now.
	So if we want to see a different outcome, a different world, a different situation, Don't underestimate the power of one little decision made one time, multiplied over thousands and thousands of people that are starting to think differently, act differently, and make decisions differently to change our world to a better place.
	That's a mic drop.
	Yeah, I just felt dropped, too, because I'm Mike.
	But that was beautifully stated.
	Thank you, Joel, for your time today.
	Just wonderful what you're doing, and we appreciate you.
	And I think human civilization, to be sustainable, is going to have to adopt the kinds of things that you're sharing with us here today.
	So thank you for your time.
	Thank you.
	Thanks for having me.
	Joel, expect a nice order this weekend.
	I'm going to polyfacefarms.com and I'm getting me some good beef shipped in, baby.
	No kidding.
	Great.
	We'll look forward to seeing it.
	All right.
	Thank you, Joel.
	And then for those of you watching, of course, Todd and I will be back right after this break with our after-party discussion.

	All right, welcome back, folks.
	This is the After Party.
	So, Todd, as you know, look, I'm always blown away by our guests, but today, especially so.
	Joel, you know, the wisdom, just the practical hands-on wisdom from this man.
	This is revolutionary for civilization.
	Yeah, it really is.
	We need to adopt what he's doing.
	He just needs to be in charge.
	Can we skip the elections and just anoint him?
	Well, put it at the head of the USDA. That's like, have RFK run HHS, which actually oversees the USDA. But yeah, let's put...
	Perfect.
	Perfect.
	Right.
	Put RFK, HHS to run the FDA and the CDC and the NIH and then have Joel run USDA. How about that?
	Wouldn't that be great?
	We can only hope.
	But, yeah, the wisdom and the years and the practicality and the fact that he's done it and figured all of this stuff out.
	I mean, my goodness.
	It's just like I... When I was doing my research, I had acreage envy, Mike.
	Because he had so...
	So much, and that's why I came up with the question about how do we actually benefit those of us who don't have this massive amount of acreage.
	You said you have acreage envy.
	I have elevation envy because he's got this elevation difference that is phenomenal.
	That's a gift to have, what did he say, 160 feet high ponds.
	So without using pumps, he can have 70 PSI water pressure irrigation in the lowlands.
	That's crazy.
	You can't even put a value on that.
	No, you can't.
	And what was the range?
	1,000?
	Yeah, he said he's got like 1,000 feet difference because he's got part of a mountain range and then he's got the lowlands.
	Right.
	Yeah, it's fascinating.
	I'm really intrigued about his weekend retreats or whatever.
	I might research that.
	That would be something that would be pretty cool.
	You have to know it's beautiful up in that area.
	So if you went like in the autumn when the leaves are changing, I bet that's just stunning.
	Yeah, and remember when he mentioned, he was talking about Audubon, and back in the early 19th century, you know, the sky would be filled with so many ducks and birds and geese that it could blot out the sun.
	Do you realize how much has been destroyed on this continent from what it was?
	The early pioneers, the reason they were trappers and whatever, is because Because every time you turn around a corner in the forest, there's another beaver, there's another raccoon.
	There were birds and wildlife everywhere.
	Yeah, and why do you think the indigenous population moved around in tents?
	Seriously, they followed the herds, they followed the food, you know, and that all stopped, Mike, when the golden arches stopped moving, you know, when they became these buildings on every corner to where you didn't have to move to get your food, you had to drive.
	Well, I want to mention too, although this is going to turn a little bit dark, but you know, the war against the Native Americans included what we would call a holodomor, which was the deliberate shooting and wiping out of the bison because it was the food source for the Native Americans.
	Really?
	Absolutely.
	Absolutely, yeah.
	Well, you know, the term Holodomor comes from, under Stalin, the Soviet Union deliberately weaponized a famine in order to kill off millions of Ukrainians in 1932 and 1933 by starving them to death because they wanted to separate from the Soviet Union at that time.
	And so the state just said, well, we're going to starve you to death.
	And you know who they starved to death the most?
	It was the rural Ukrainians, the farmers, who wanted to separate.
	Well, in the history of the United States of America, the Native American Indians were subjected to engineered famine and starvation.
	And that was done by the settlers who wanted to displace them, to push them, so they could take their land, which, by the way, I don't mean to make this political, but right now today, Israel is committing the same thing against the Palestinians in Gaza, depriving them of food on purpose in order to displace them.
	So this method, I mean, those are three examples right there in history of where famine has been weaponized in order to conquer people or push them out.
	What a horrible weapon, too.
	I mean, it's just inverted.
	Yeah, I mean, to starve people to death on purpose, you know, that's really evil.
	Well, on to a more positive note.
	I do want to just share something with everybody.
	I need to get my phone out here.
	And if people go to YouTube, there's a gentleman named Matt Powers.
	Regenerative Soil something.
	But anyway, I found he did a whole commentary on...
	Joel, and he was invited into Joel's entire ecosystem, and it's called Permaculture Key Takeaways, Polyface Farm and Joel Salatin.
	And I would say if anybody just wanted to go put some visuals with what we discussed today, that's a really good video.
	It's not very long, but you'll be able to visually see what Joel's talking about, about how he moves the The animals around.
	It was just very, very cool.
	It might save you a trip.
	Well, I'm really glad you mentioned that, because we didn't even use the word permaculture during the entire conversation.
	No, we didn't.
	We didn't have to.
	It's like, this should be agriculture.
	Like, just regular agriculture should be this.
	Because I would say, like, the way that modern agriculture is actually pursued, it's more like toxiculture.
	Yes.
	You know?
	Like, it doesn't even deserve the name agriculture.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's a death cult of the food supply or something.
	Now, you know, if you see something on TikTok, it must be true, Mike, but I gotta tell you, I did see something, somebody sent me something on TikTok that some of the steaks that we get are manufactured and they're putting like fake fat in steaks.
	Have you heard about that?
	Yeah, I've heard of that.
	I mean, I don't know if it's true or not, but if it is, people out there in control, shame on you.
	Don't mess with our beef.
	That's why polyfacefarms.com.
	That's where I'm going to get my meat from now on, guys.
	I'm not going to have induced meat with chemicals just to make it look like fat.
	I just put in the freezer a quarter cow.
	Nice.
	By the way, because I know ranchers locally in Texas, and every once in a while they...
	They butcher a cow that's unvaccinated, no GMOs in the feed, they've just been out in the fields, and so maybe about once a year, whatever, I'll take part in that, or an eighth of a cow, or whatever.
	I don't actually eat a ton of meat, but I do eat meat.
	I think we need a certain amount of meat in our diet in order to be healthy, and the saturated fats, I think, are actually good for us.
	Yes.
	It's not toxic.
	I mean, think about, you know, the toxic food industry wants you to switch over to all these toxic seed oils and stop eating real food, you know?
	But when you do that, you end up with heart disease and cancer and diabetes and everything, so forget that.
	But I have a source to buy cows or parts of cows locally, and the advantage is then I can also buy the bones.
	And they sell me the bones for only like, I don't know, $4.50 a pound, I think, for my dogs.
	So my dogs get bones and the bone marrow, and then I get the cuts of the beef and the steaks and what have you.
	I think it's a great...
	What are the rules with giving dogs bones so that they...
	Like, I had one schnauzer when I was young who he ended up getting into our chicken and ended up having one caught in his esophagus.
	It was horrible.
	What's the rules there?
	Well, chicken bones can be more troublesome.
	That's for sure.
	But cow bones, usually they're quite large.
	And as long as they're raw, not cooked, then they don't tend to shatter.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	Like, cooked bones can splinter more easily, and chicken bones are hollow because they're birds, and so chicken bones can splinter very easily, but cow bones are more solid, although bones are never entirely solid.
	They're actually living porous systems.
	Sure.
	But cow bones are big.
	We're talking like knuckles, you know, like big chunks.
	And the idea is you want to keep your dog busy for a while, too.
	Like, give them a couple hour homework assignment here.
	Devour this knuckle, you know?
	Instead of chasing rats all day.
	Bunnies.
	You have a bunny grab, grubbler, what do you call it?
	Gobbler.
	Gobbler.
	Yeah, bunny gobbler.
	Bunny gobbler.
	So he literally goes out on your farm and finds bunnies and gobbles them.
	Oh, she does.
	She does.
	She finds bunnies that almost, like, out of her mouth, the bunny will be like this, like the head and the front feet are over here, and then the back feet are over here, and And I'll say, I'll scream at her, oh my god!
	And she'll go, and she swallows it.
	She swallows the bunny whole.
	Indigestion, Mike?
	No, no problems.
	This dog is a blue healer.
	Yeah.
	She's the fastest eating dog I've ever seen.
	She must have like throat dilation superpowers or something because she can swallow whole bunnies.
	She's like a boa constrictor.
	Yeah, she is.
	And a cow that has like four stomachs, five stomachs, however many stomachs they have.
	It's really incredible.
	But anyway, just, you know, weird food stories.
	But the bottom line is, you know, all of us need a source to get clean food and real food.
	Yeah.
	And most people end up going to the grocery store, which can provide some healthy food items, but more and more the food supply in the grocery store is increasingly contaminated.
	It's increasingly factory foods, you know, Tyson foods, and Tyson's moving into the cricket factories.
	So how much you want to bet they're going to have like cricket protein powder They will come up with a new name.
	They won't even call it crickets.
	And most people won't know they're going to be buying chicken nuggets that are 30% cricket powder or something.
	They won't even know it.
	And you won't even know it.
	Yeah.
	You know, I had to go into Walmart because I was out of corn feed and I just needed something.
	So I went in and I looked around and it just almost made me vibrate because as I looked around, it just was everything was diabetes inducing.
	I mean, like when you walk in and just welcomes you with nothing but crap food, Mike.
	And I'm like, You know how Walmart works, how they negotiate with their vendors, I do, from a different life, is the vendors end up figuring ways to still be able to make money, but it's by lowering quality and costs, cutting corners, cutting quantities, etc.
	So, I don't...
	You know that one guy who made that documentary to where he ate McDonald's for 30 days and it just did horrible things to him?
	Yeah, and I think he just died, by the way.
	I think he did too.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And I wonder if somebody who always ate healthy, went to, you know, organic food stores or whatever, if they just ate from Walmart for 30 days, I wonder if it would do the same thing.
	I'm dead serious.
	It's...
	It's just crap food.
	But also, giving credit to Walmart, they do also have organic produce.
	Is it really, though?
	That's where I get suspicious.
	No, look, let me say something in defense of Walmart's supply chain, if you don't mind.
	I mean, it seems weird.
	I'm not a fan of Walmart, but we want to be honest about this.
	There's two things I know about Walmart.
	The certified organic food that they have is legit organic, yes.
	And secondly, and I know this because I have a food science lab, and I've had experts in my lab who have been in Walmart's lab.
	And Walmart has a massive mass spec laboratory.
	And Walmart is one of the few retailers in the world that tests all of their products for lead.
	Okay.
	And including, I don't know if you know this, but like children's shirts when they have red ink on them or cups that have red ink, a lot of times that red ink is heavily laced with lead.
	And Walmart has a program where they take everything that they're going to sell, and they dissolve it in nitric acid or hydrochloric acid, whatever, and then they test it for lead, and that way they know they're never going to get sued for lead exposure.
	and then they enhance the safety of their products.
	Now, again, I only know this because we have a food lab.
	We do this for all our food products, and lead, cadmium, mercury.
	But Walmart does it for bicycles and shirts and shoes for children.
	Okay.
	They don't want children exposed to lead.
	So you've got to give them credit for doing...
	I stand down.
	I stand down.
	I anticipated it was the alternative to where they were just in it for the buck, and the lower the prices, the lower the quality.
	So I'm happy to be wrong on that, Mike.
	Well, I'm not saying that everything at Walmart is the highest quality product, but what I'm saying is you can know with confidence you're not going to have lead exposure from Walmart.
	Well, I just like the fact knowing that their organic food is certified organic.
	So that's helpful.
	Yeah, that's legit.
	But I do want to mention, you know, the USDA organic program does not require testing for lead itself.
	So if you're a farmer and you're certified organic, all it means is you're not allowed to use synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and so on in the production of the food.
	The organic certification does not cover the final product.
	The final product could have glyphosate in it if it drifted over from a neighboring field.
	Sure, right.
	And you don't have to test it for glyphosate or pesticides or lead or mercury.
	Right.
	So that's why we test everything additionally, and Walmart does, because the USDA program only guarantees a process, not an end result.
	And The FDA screwed with your toothpaste.
	That really ticks me off because I need a reorder.
	Are you out?
	Are you out of our toothpaste?
	I have eight containers still left, but those eight, my wife loves it too.
	So it's like they're doing, I'm just getting sad, Mike.
	You know, I just know that there's going to be a day and I'm going to have to say, I have to go back to the other stuff.
	Todd, I've got good news for you.
	Yesterday, I just tried a sample of a new in-house formulation that we're creating for toothpaste.
	Okay!
	Now we're cooking with gas!
	Yep, we're doing our own formulation.
	We're going to be manufacturing our own toothpaste in-house.
	It's not the same.
	It's not exactly the same.
	Okay.
	It's very, very good, but slightly different.
	For example, we put a lot more anise and a lot more cinnamon oil in it, so it's a little spicier.
	Okay.
	And the texture feels just a little bit different, and I asked them to reduce the suds factor because, as you may notice, that the toothpaste we had before was pretty high suds, like it would foam up a lot.
	You noticed that?
	I never noticed that, but all I noticed is my teeth literally have never felt so clean, and when I went for my six-month checkup, I think I shared on a prior show that they were impressed.
	They wanted to know what I was doing differently.
	That's awesome.
	Yeah.
	That's awesome.
	Well, the sudsing factor comes from coconut oil.
	There's a coconut oil extract that provides that.
	I just asked them to reduce it a little bit.
	That's all.
	Okay.
	Anyway, we will get you some new toothpaste.
	I'm excited.
	Thank you, Mike.
	Thank you.
	I can pull myself out of the throes of depression.
	Yeah, and of course, it's fluoride-free.
	Oh, did you see the breaking news that the Fluoride Action Network won that major court case?
	It just happened.
	It's been seven years in the making.
	The court ordered the EPA must now regulate fluoride in the water, taking into account the risk factor of fluoride lowering IQs of children.
	In other words, they can no longer just dump fluoride into the water supply everywhere across the nation, which is a way to get rid of chemical waste products, by the way, because fluoride comes with all these other waste products.
	They just call it fluoride.
	They dump it in the water.
	They just poison everybody.
	Those days are coming to an end.
	Major victory.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	The attorney I think is Michael Conant I think is his name.
	Can we get him on?
	Yeah, we're going to have fun.
	Good.
	Good.
	That's awesome.
	Yeah.
	Oh, I love hearing that.
	The worm may be turning, Mike.
	Well, the fluoride is coming out of the water, at least at the higher levels, but you know what I say, Todd?
	Anybody drinking tap water needs to have their head examined anyway.
	Yeah, no kidding, no kidding.
	It's like, what?
	You trust, like, government-piped water?
	Are you kidding me?
	It's so gross.
	There's a reason why water is more expensive than a gallon, good water, than a gallon of gasoline, because it doesn't kill you.
	I almost would rather drink a gallon of gasoline.
	So, Mike, I just want to know, and this was not set up, everyone, but I just want people to know about it, please.
	But can you give us the URL to your church?
	Oh, wow, yeah.
	Thank you for that.
	Actually, I've got something to mention to you about the church.
	So, yeah, I'm in the process of launching a new church.
	It's called Abundance.Church.
	And I've got now 60 sermons published about foods and nutrition and also incoming comet impacts mentioned in the book of Revelation, which is freaking people out.
	Once you see that, you can't unsee it.
	But, you know, Todd, something really interesting.
	As we're forming our church and we're going through the process of the documentation and opening bank accounts and so on, we got back the non-profit federal tax ID for the church that's necessary to open the bank accounts.
	And we're in the process of opening bank accounts.
	Guess what designation the church has?
	Tell me.
	575E. Wow.
	Yes.
	It came back, 575E. Hey, Mike, you know what my website is?
	Tell me.
	My575E.com.
	Tell us about it.
	Tell us about it.
	Because I was like, wow, this is Todd's work.
	Yeah, it's a powerful designation.
	It is a powerful designation.
	And I have to tell you, since we've been talking about the new website, my575e.com, Mike, there has been no less than a dozen new UNA operators who have come from this show.
	And I will tell you what I love most is, you know, we always have PC and NPC talk.
	There's not one NPC in the lot of them.
	These people are just...
	Intellectually curious.
	They are internally decentralized believers that anything that we can do to get out from underneath centralized control their game.
	And it's just been a real joy to meet our viewers today.
	Because when people go through the process, they either have questions or they get their UNA, and then I invite them into our private telegram group called UNA Biz, and they meet everybody, all these other like-minded people, and then we war game.
	And it's so cool, because you know, because you just opened up a bank account with your 575E. Which that's kind of the part to where you get a little bit nervous and stuff.
	But once you do that, then your job is done.
	You just enjoy this entity for the rest of your life and all of the tax advantages that come with it and property advantage.
	Go ahead.
	Let me give out your website again, my575e.com.
	That's your site.
	Here we're showing it on screen.
	And people can go there and just click the button and you can learn about that structure.
	But back to my church, what's really interesting to me is, some people know this, some people don't, but under published IRS code and federal law, A church does not have to file a federal tax return and a church is not taxed for church-related income.
	Now if a church goes out and let's say buys an oil field and then has oil revenue that's unrelated to the church then yeah the church would file a tax return on that and would pay Regular income tax on that, but for normal church business and church functions, churches are not taxed.
	And in addition, the 508C1A designation of the IRS tax code says that not only do churches not file tax returns, churches are not responsible for filing any origination documents with the federal government.
	And on top of that, the government cannot request an audit of the church's finances.
	And the church is a 575E. Yep.
	And just interesting that 575E, the E means exempt.
	And that transports over to the entity that I help people acquire.
	Same rules exist.
	It's a little more accessible because you do not have to publish 100 sermons to get the designation.
	Yeah, you know, launching a church is not a small deal.
	No, not at all.
	But I admire what you've been doing with yours and the content.
	It's amazing.
	And when you say you have 60 that you've recorded, that tells me, because weren't you on track to where the last one was going to be around the time of election?
	Are we getting that close?
	We are right around 40 days to the election.
	Yeah.
	Gosh!
	I think I'll have my 100th sermon published maybe the day before or two days before the election.
	Yeah.
	That is mind-numbing that it's coming up this quickly.
	It is mind-blowing.
	But, hey, let me mention that the church...
	The church is called the Church of Natural Abundance, and my church focuses actually on foods and superfoods and the molecules that are in foods that are mentioned in the Bible specifically.
	But beyond that, it's the idea that God creates amazing medicine in foods.
	Now, interestingly, I haven't yet covered meat before.
	Even though throughout the Bible people are eating lamb, you know, people are eating sheep and what have you.
	But I haven't focused on meat, I just focus on plants.
	Because that's a very rich world of phytonutrients and phytonutrients.
	Sure it is.
	But, you know, just related to our guest today, In biblical times, people were eating food that was far more nutritious than the shadow food of what our modern world gets.
	And so mankind likes to brag about all this progress, like, we're so advanced, and now we have factories that can make this and that.
	No, you're eating a shadow of the food that Moses ate.
	Yes, that's right.
	You know, they had better food thousands of years ago than what you have today.
	They did.
	And I don't believe in the Old Testament, at least, that there is a book of McDonald's.
	But when you do start covering meat, Mike, I just have to direct you a little bit, okay?
	The Old Testament hammers.
	Pork.
	Okay, you don't eat it.
	God said don't eat it.
	But then you have to, in the New Testament, to counterbalance that, after Jesus Christ appeared and became our Savior, he also saved bacon.
	Because go to the Apostle Paul and look on how he preaches about Pork.
	Post-Jesus.
	And he'll make everybody feel a little better.
	We're not going to hell for consuming bacon.
	Because bacon is its own food group, Mike.
	Well, yeah, that's what I love about some of Paul's letters, is that he said, you are free from the old restrictions.
	Welcome to the new world of the Christ world, where he says you can eat all of God's foods as long as you give blessing to God.
	So bacon is totally okay with Jesus.
	And bacon makes everything taste better.
	Yes.
	It does.
	Bacon for Jesus.
	That's my next bumper sticker.
	Yeah, no, it's true.
	I think even one of the letters that Paul wrote, I think, in 1 Corinthians, he even said, if I'm remembering correctly, he even said that The animals that are sacrificed to the Roman gods and the other gods, the non-Christian gods, if you want to eat those animals, that's okay too, as long as you give thanks to God, and you don't want to waste the food.
	Right.
	So, now, I don't have any animals that have been sacrificed to the Roman gods.
	Right.
	But if I did, I wouldn't be afraid, you know, to eat the meat of those animals, not that there's any Roman temples around.
	Yeah, you don't have to worry about being crucified for...
	Right.
	No, no.
	Maybe soy bacon.
	You could be crucified for eating the soy bacon.
	Yes, and should be.
	The fake bacon.
	The shadow bacon.
	And should be.
	See, everybody?
	We're almost done.
	We're in the latter part of the after party, and we've totally derailed this wonderful Joel Salatin interview.
	Sorry, Joel.
	We love you.
	Sorry, Joel.
	We always get off track here.
	This is what happens during the happy hour of the show.
	But anyway, look, this is all related.
	It is.
	I think God wants humanity to be able to keep more of what they earn.
	I do too.
	I do too.
	You know, it says give unto Caesar, but there's a difference between, I have to say this, tax evasion and tax avoidance.
	Tax evasion bad, tax avoidance good.
	And tax avoidance is lawfully keeping more of what you earn because there are ways out there to be able to do it that are accessible to you and me.
	And that I found, Mike, with my consultations and helping people with these is the biggest thing.
	People are so under the spell that they can't fathom that they can actually have so many tax advantages and not be doing something wrong.
	You know, it's so great to help break their spell.
	Let me also mention I'm quite certain that under the structure that you are sharing with people, the 575E, that it can hold assets like gold.
	And show my screen, if you would, to my producers.
	Gold today, $2,673.
	Gold briefly crossed $2,700 in the gold futures, by the way.
	And here's what's amazing.
	Did you know, friends, that if you hold gold and as gold is going up in value, that you legally do not owe any tax whatsoever on that gold until even under IRS rules, until you sell it or realize the gain in two dollars until you sell it or realize the gain in two dollars or something
	But if you hold gold and it's just going up and up and up and you're gaining dollar value in the gold, No matter where you have that gold, buried in the backyard, in a vault or whatever, or held by a 575E, that is not a taxable event just because gold is going up in value.
	No, that would be called an unrealized gain.
	And if people don't get their voting right, that could be part of our future.
	Unrealized gains could be part of our future, and that's why we have to be paying attention, Mike.
	There is one party that wants to tax unrealized gains.
	Yes, certain cackling parties.
	But even that, I would tell people that when you protect your assets in a 575E, there is a hedge of protection around that, even if such a law came into existence, because your social security number, you would no longer own that asset.
	An entity would, of which you are the shepherd of it, making decisions.
	Yes, you are the financial steward, the shepherd of those assets that are in your UNA. And there's just amazing protections, as you know, Mike, because you studied it very long and hard before your church.
	And the law has just stood the test of time for over 50 years.
	Very powerful.
	That's really extraordinary.
	I also want to bring in, since we're mentioning gold and silver, if you don't mind, gold is skyrocketing right now, and I want to bring in, I just want to mention here on rangerdeals.com, we've got some sponsors that help support our platform.
	We've got the Prepper Bars here, you can save 10%.
	Here's the discount code, just click SHOP. We've got Goldbacks, which I have Here.
	Oh, look.
	Got a fresh stack in my hands right here.
	Let me see.
	We can't see.
	We're seeing the screen.
	There we go.
	They're shifting it there.
	There you go.
	A fresh stack of goldbacks.
	Yeah.
	Nice.
	Because I keep giving these away.
	When people come in the studio, I give them...
	I'm giving them stacks of gold now.
	That's great.
	It's like, hey, spread the joy.
	Everybody loves gold.
	But that's it, rangerdeals.com.
	And then we've got here the Treasure Island Coins and Precious Metals Company, which sells traditional gold and silver.
	And then one more thing that we've got that's coming up, and I think you will want to see this.
	If you go to brightu.com, we have a new course coming up that starts streaming October 12th.
	It's called Financial Survival.
	And we've interviewed Andy Sheckman, and we've interviewed David Dubine, we've interviewed some other leaders there, and we have a great docu-series there.
	So it's free to watch, optionally purchased, but you can watch it for free.
	That's at brightu.com.
	Hey Mike, do you know we've been at this, I venture to guess we're probably going to be approaching a year and a half soon, but do you know when we first started doing this together, gold was just over $1,900 I believe.
	Is that right?
	Because I remember I had just acquired it.
	So, wow, from $1,900 to $2,700 nearly.
	For what, 15 months, 18 months?
	Yeah.
	Well, that obliterates the argument that people, I've heard people say, I don't want to buy gold because I want my money to work for me.
	So they put it in stocks or something.
	I'm like, have you done the math on this?
	Because if you just put it in gold, it outperforms the stock market.
	And some take self-custody, and gosh darn it, Mike, if I didn't go through a little bit of Alzheimer's experience, I forgot where I buried it.
	Did you?
	I think you buried it under your food forest.
	No, no.
	No, I didn't.
	I did not put it under that piece of tree.
	It's not under the banana tree?
	Golden bananas?
	Hey, these bananas taste like gold.
	What's going on?
	You eat them, you get gold teeth.
	That's where you don't want a dog that digs.
	You can be a rapper with your gold banana teeth.
	Right.
	Your gold grill.
	Sean Diddley Combs.
	Sorry.
	Don't go there.
	No, he is starring in a new series called Diddler on the Roof, though.
	It's a musical number.
	Okay.
	Sorry, Joel.
	Sorry.
	The longer this goes on, the worse it's going to get.
	It's going into full Jeffrey Epstein territory.
	Is there anything else you want to say before we wrap this up?
	No, Mike.
	Before we cause more trouble.
	I think let's quit while we're ahead.
	Yeah, let's quit while our commentary is still legal.
	Right, right.
	Before it goes into some crazy territory.
	Mike, you know, you and I know other people don't know because of when we publish and such, but just because of life, it's been two weeks since you and I have done one of these.
	I'm just telling you, it's good to see you whenever we come back, Mike.
	Hey, you too.
	It's always good to see you.
	And also, by the way, on the day we're recording, you're getting hit by a storm in Florida.
	I am.
	I am.
	So are you all good?
	Yeah, Tampa, which is where I live, dodged a bullet again.
	Seems like we dodged a lot of them, knock on wood.
	It's unfortunately going to head up to the curve within Florida, which Tallahassee, I think, is just going to get absolutely hammered, and it's going to go up through Valdosta and Atlanta and such.
	And so it's pretty big and pretty nasty.
	Well, they named it Hell.
	Oh, they did?
	Hurricane Hell?
	Hellena, or Hell for short.
	Right.
	I mean, they named the storm Hell.
	Well, we did get a couple of outer bands that were really, really nasty.
	Wow.
	So I couldn't imagine.
	And it's 150 miles offshore.
	So it's a big boy.
	It's a big boy.
	Well, I was checking the wind speeds from the NOAA last night, and it said that there will be over 100 mile an hour wind speeds on the coast.
	Yep.
	Yep.
	Can you imagine?
	I can.
	Plus with rain in it, you know, like highly dense, humid water.
	What people don't realize, and I've lived through it, is, and this is why I got a full house generator, is when your power goes out and you have those hundred mile winds hammering you and the rain is literally blowing sideways.
	Yeah.
	When you do not have air conditioning in late August, early September, it's not as simple as saying, hey, let's get some circulation here.
	Let's open the windows because that rain is coming at 90 degree angle to your house.
	So it is literally a sauna for days.
	Oh, it's horrible.
	Just horrible.
	Never again.
	That's why, you know, screw the green cash.
	Give me a whole house generator.
	So what fuel does your whole house generator use?
	Propane.
	And you've got enough propane on site?
	Yes, I do.
	I have plenty.
	For a week, for a week and a half.
	Okay, cool.
	All right.
	So you're going to be set.
	And also, by the way, in Florida, homes without electricity grow mold.
	Right.
	Like crazy.
	Yeah.
	So...
	True.
	That's bad.
	Also...
	Right.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	I tell you, remember the hurricane that hit down south down in Naples and such?
	I drive to Miami every once in a while, often actually, and I drive down through there.
	It decimated that area down there.
	Really?
	I mean, there are such beautiful areas that to this day just look like dilapidated areas.
	Just ghost towns of themselves, yeah.
	You know, if I lived in Florida, now granted this is a very expensive thing to do, but I wonder why don't more people build concrete homes?
	Because they can handle 200 mile an hour winds, you know?
	Right, right.
	But it is very expensive to do that, but I'm just wondering, I mean I've seen photos of like one concrete home left standing in a neighborhood that's decimated of regular homes.
	Yeah.
	I think you would have to, it depends.
	Like, the real estate that is anywhere near the coast is so expensive anyway.
	Yeah.
	So I'm sure that most people, most people, if they are able to afford, you know, they have the budget to acquire a home, it's probably not going to be one that they tear down and rebuild with concrete, you know, because the homes are really nice anyway.
	True.
	But they're going to die one day.
	Well, yeah, but when the next storm comes through and wipes it out, then is your chance to build a concrete home instead of the regular...
	Like, why do people keep building the same wooden stick homes that keep getting blown down?
	Good point.
	And you know what?
	So many insurance companies are leaving the state.
	They're just not insuring anything coastal Florida.
	So I think that's probably right.
	Somebody comes in, they buy a home, they're like, eh, I'm not going to get homeowner's insurance because it's going to get blown away anyway.
	Right.
	Right.
	I would build a concrete home and I would have no insurance.
	Right.
	On purpose.
	Because, number one, it can't burn.
	Yep.
	Right?
	Concrete doesn't burn.
	No.
	Secondly, it's impervious to normal hurricane winds, even at Category 5.
	That's right.
	And thirdly, if there's an act of war that destroys a concrete home, your insurance isn't going to cover that anyway.
	That's true.
	Because they don't cover acts of war.
	That's true.
	That's true.
	You know, you're gone anyway.
	Yeah.
	Unless, like, see, I'm smart, Mike.
	My grandpa in the 70s told me that I needed to practice getting under a school desk to be able to, if there is a nuclear war, and put my hands over my head.
	So every one of my rooms in my house has one of those little four, you know, more legged school desk.
	So you can get under it.
	Because I'm a prepper.
	That's real preparedness right there, yeah.
	I remember those drills too.
	Alright Todd, we've covered a lot today.
	We've had some fun.
	This has been great.
	I love our guest and what he teaches is really valuable wisdom for humanity.
	So, anything else you want to add before we wrap this up?
	No, but I can dig the name Polyface You know, many faces to run a ranch, that's pretty cool.
	That's paying homage to the people that make it all happen.
	And I really think that's cool.
	I learned something today.
	Could it also refer to the faces of the cows?
	It could.
	Because they have faces.
	They do.
	Wow, you're breaking my brain now.
