	Welcome to today's interview on Brighteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon, the free speech video platform.
	And today, for the first time here, but you've heard from our guest many times before, but we've never interviewed him, which is crazy because, you know, I've spoken with him over the years.
	He's an InfoWars reporter, Greg Reese, and he's...
	And these are really high-knowledge-density video reports that cover all the important subjects of our time.
	So, Greg, it's just an honor to have you on today.
	Thank you for taking the time to join me.
	Thank you.
	Thank you for the introduction.
	Nice to be here with you.
	Well, absolutely.
	Look, I've been a fan of your work for many years.
	I've reposted many of your videos on my channel, on Brighteon and other places.
	I've retweeted a lot of your stuff.
	Describe to our audience, I think most people are familiar with you, but if they're not, can you describe what is it that you do exactly?
	Because it's really, you do it the best of anybody.
	Give us a description.
	Well, thank you.
	What I'm doing is I'm looking for what I think are the most important subjects that people should be looking at and looking into and then trying to convey those to people in a very short, quick, summarized format, showing links and information that they could follow up on if they feel intrigued and curious and they want to dig deeper.
	And you narrate all your videos.
	And then you bring in a lot of evidence for each video, and it's visually interesting, but the narration is yours.
	So are you kind of writing it up as a script first and then sort of recording it and putting in the video?
	I mean, how are you doing it?
	So I start off with the most exhausting part of the process is digging through information, The story, trying to find the report.
	That's the most painful part of it.
	Then the second most painful part is the research and the writing, but that's fun.
	So then, yeah, you research and you do the writing.
	And as long as this story, like a lot of these stories, I'll look for what I think is the most interesting, what I think is the most important.
	And a lot of times, once I find that, I still am like, is this...
	Is there any truth to this?
	And then that's the process of researching it, trying to see if there's any truth to it, or if it's enough evidence of truth that it's worth people looking into.
	And then, yeah, then it's just writing it.
	And the writing probably takes the longest out of all this, trying to get things down to a short length, which is something over the years I've definitely gotten better at is summary.
	And then once it's written, it's all downhill from there.
	Once I write it, then I do the voiceover.
	All the audio, and then I have a completed audio track.
	Once I have a completed audio track that I drop in my video program, then it's just downhill skiing from there.
	It's very fun.
	That's cool.
	Of course, I've been in the content business for 25 years as well, and I would imagine that it must also be difficult because stories keep changing as you're researching them, right?
	I've seen this where you'll do a Reese report based on the best knowledge of that day, and then something new, some new aspect will come out the very next day.
	Is that frustrating for you sometimes?
	You need a version 2 of that same report?
	How do you think about that?
	Actually, I don't recall that happening too often.
	I feel very fortunate in that there's been several times I've put out reports.
	On subjects where, for example, the bio labs in Ukraine, when I put that out, it was a weird feeling because it's like, is this true?
	Is there any truth to this?
	Is this going to come back and slap me in the face?
	I think there was only one time someone reached out to me and pointed out something that I did in my video that was inaccurate.
	I almost look back and regret changing it because it was a political person and the political person was telling me I had it wrong.
	I don't get messed up and all that nonsense.
	I only changed it on one episode, actually.
	I'm like the band-out video on it.
	But anyways, aside from that, I don't think I've ever felt...
	I've done several videos on subjects like the vaccine where I've done several following up.
	Because as you said, new information is coming in.
	It's endless and it's constant.
	But even that, I remember when I first started reporting on the nanotech, I think it was La Quinta Columna was the first source I started reporting on in that.
	And when I was doing those reports, It all checked out, and there was no reason to think it was false other than it's just outrageous sounding, and it's crazy.
	And so, like, those, even those, I put them out, I'm like, well, I'm not making this stuff up, and this is what they're finding.
	And I was totally, maybe I was hoping to find out that that information was wrong.
	But so far, I think the nanotech is completely legit, and I think that's the main hidden story of today is the nanotech and the vaccines.
	Yeah, and what I love about what you do is that you'll never find your work in the mainstream media.
	Obviously, they won't cover these narratives.
	And they would say that what you do and what I do, they would claim it's misinformation.
	But, of course, I say the right answer is it's missing information.
	This is what's missing from people's knowledge.
	You're just filling in the gaps of the missing information.
	So thank you for what you do.
	Let me just encourage people.
	Can we show the website, reesreport.com?
	There it is.
	About Greg Reese right there.
	People can subscribe.
	Do you have a, I don't know, like a Substack or a Twitter handle?
	How else can people follow you?
	On the very top of the website there, there's a thing that says subscribe.
	I think sign up at Substack.
	And if you go there, you can sign up for free.
	And then I also have a paywall there.
	I think I've only got about seven.
	Maybe eight videos behind the paywall of like exclusive videos that are on subjects that I find extremely interesting.
	I just don't think they're critical for everyone.
	Like the baby train, the orphan trains I find fascinating, but it's like a lot of these stories, it's like there's not really, what do you make of this stuff other than, you know, completely losing faith in history?
	Yeah, no kidding.
	Which I have.
	I have too, yes.
	I'd like to talk about that more in a minute, but You recently lived in Russia for a while, I believe.
	Was it six months or something?
	Six months, almost exactly, yeah.
	So this is really fascinating to me.
	And I'd like to ask you about this experience because everybody that I've interviewed who is in Russia or has been to Russia is just blown away by how safe and clean and advanced the cities are in Russia compared to the dumpster fire clown show collapse of U.S. cities.
	Am I making that up?
	Am I getting that wrong?
	Or what did you see?
	Well, I went there because I wanted to see for myself because I've been reading the same, you know, for 20 years almost in my research, I've been reading all these very optimistic things about Russia.
	And then you have a lot of people in the community that we're in, for lack of a better word, that will tell you, oh, you can't trust Russia, that everyone's in on it and everyone is in on it and all that story.
	And in the end, I kind of think that's true.
	I think that we're...
	On a farm and someone probably has a document that shows that they own us and it's probably not a human.
	That's just my guess.
	That's where I've been for a long time in my assumptions.
	But Russia was extraordinary.
	I was there almost this time last month was my first week there.
	So it's actually kind of warms my heart to talk about it right now because it was so glad I did that trip.
	When I went, I thought maybe I'd stay there.
	I thought if it, because, you know, I was, everything was falling apart, clown show, like you said, and I was just like, well, maybe I don't want to stay in America.
	Maybe I want to go somewhere else.
	So I spent six months there.
	I was working a little bit on the side.
	I met a lot of people, and I talked, everyone I met, I asked about COVID. That was my main thing I wanted to get to the bottom of, because everyone, you know, to see what they were like during COVID. Now, I wasn't there during COVID. So this is just based off of the Russians and the other expats that I talked to there.
	But I got the same story from everyone.
	And you can actually find it in the videos.
	I did a lot of combing through Russian YouTube videos for my own videos when I was there to get B-roll and stuff.
	So you can see all this in the videos from that time.
	But what everyone told me is that very few people wore the mask in Russia.
	Very few people followed along with any of the rules.
	They were supposed to shut the shops down.
	They had signs in the windows, but the shops were open.
	The police were, from what I was told, were on the side of the people 100%.
	The cops were just one of the people, and they all had each other's backs.
	And there were so few people that were wearing the masks that it was more of just a matter of being polite to let them wear their masks.
	But other than that, they were giving out The clot shots.
	I talked to an older doctor, very smart man, who specializes in genetics.
	And I asked, and so right away, I was like, well, you tell me what was going on.
	And he said that they were basically giving out a, he said that the Sputnik was basically an, I can't remember how he put it, but it was basically an mRNA.
	It was the Moderna.
	But it was a different branding or whatever.
	And then I said, well, how come we haven't heard about a lot of people dropping dead in Russia?
	And he said, well, those Russian statisticians are very professional here, and it would be very easy for them to keep that information.
	Which is one of the great things about America that I learned in Russia is that the system that we have set up is pretty good.
	Our access to public information isn't perfect.
	But compared to Russia, for example, they don't have that.
	They don't have any system set up for people to do research and get this information.
	So we do.
	Yeah.
	So, I mean, for a while I said if I had young kids, I would probably stay in Russia because I think it is overall looking to be the safest, best, prosperous place of the world right now.
	But as an American, I prefer to be here just not just as a patriot, but just all simply because citizenship here is goes a long way, especially in.
	We're looking at very uncertain times in the future, and I wouldn't want to be a foreigner in any country right now.
	Well, that's a really good point.
	I mean, I've been there, too.
	I've lived in other countries as the foreigner, and that really does put you at a disadvantage.
	Did you learn to speak some Russian, or did you already speak it before you went?
	Nimnoga, which means a little, very little.
	I would say that's one of the most challenging parts of the whole thing is...
	You know, if you were to move there, you would have to really confront that.
	It's not an easy language.
	I think it's rated the second most difficult language in the world next to Mandarin.
	And I'm fairly good with languages.
	Like, I've never become fluent in any language, but I've dabbled in a bunch of languages.
	I love learning different languages, and I've picked up things fairly quickly.
	Russia, I thought, was going to be pretty easy at first, and the more I got into it, the more it was just...
	It was, to be honest, kind of overwhelming.
	There's a lot of...
	There's a thing called cases.
	There's a lot of grammar that they have that we don't have.
	It's very interesting.
	It gives you a lot more respect for the Russian people.
	And I think that's one of the reasons why they have a lot of intelligence.
	I did notice the average intelligence to be much higher there than it is here.
	I think it has something to do with the language.
	And I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that they don't trust their government because they know that their government is capable of mass murdering them.
	They know that very well.
	They grew up with that reality, whereas Americans don't seem to have that comprehension.
	Well, you know, interestingly, there's also a well-known phenomenon about intelligence related to how far a population lives from the equator, which translates into harsh winters.
	And harsh winters lead to long-term intelligence, because if you don't know how to plan, you die.
	And I think it was Jared Diamond, I think, Guns, Germs, and Steel, his book talks about this.
	And where the United States is being invaded by more people that live really close to the equator, and just anthropologically, since they can get food year-round, there's no, you could say, natural selection pressure towards long-term planning.
	But the Russian people, they came from the Nordic regions.
	I believe originally they were called the Rus.
	And it was Icelandic influence, I believe.
	They've always lived in very harsh climates.
	I agree with you.
	The Russian people are some of the most raw, highly intelligent people in the world.
	And that also translates into Ukraine as well.
	The Ukrainian people, half of whom are really Russian people, tend to be the same people.
	Very smart people.
	And Northern Chinese also.
	Highly, highly intelligent people.
	Japanese, etc.
	But if you go to areas where there's food year-round and nobody really has to work, just look up the statistics of the IQ of Haiti.
	That's all I'm saying.
	This is not racist.
	This is science.
	It's just not the same as Russian IQs.
	That's all I'll say.
	No, I would agree.
	And they are extremely hardy, and they're extremely warm, too.
	That's a stereotype you hear.
	Even the Russians will tell you that the...
	Russian people are very cold and robotic until you get to know them, and then they're like your best friend.
	I don't see that to be true at all.
	I think they're very warm.
	They're guarded, but they're very warm and friendly.
	But it is true.
	Once you cross a certain barrier with a Ruski and you become friends, you feel it.
	They're very noble people.
	They're almost like royalty.
	They grew up with a very regal background.
	If you go to restaurants in Moscow, they're all affordable but super regal.
	A woman will get a little table that she can put her purse on right next to her, fancy stuff like that.
	If you don't take your shoes off when you go inside a Russian's home, you'll freak them out.
	They're very proper, civilized people.
	And what else is very interesting is the Orthodox Church has immense influence and power there.
	And they are very clear in their belief that the biggest problem in the world today is a satanic force that mostly they refer to as Talmudic Jewry.
	They're very specific that it's the Talmud.
	And they're not anti-Semitic.
	They're not anti-Jew.
	In the old dynasty, apparently, even though it was a Christian country, they allowed all religions.
	This was explained to me by an Orthodox Christian in a very sensible way, which is that...
	If it's to be a truly Christian nation, then people need to have the option to choose wrongly.
	So you should be allowed to have freedom of choice, therefore freedom of religion.
	But they did outlaw specifically Talmudic jubilee.
	They allowed Jews to practice, and they had temples in Russia, and they still do ancient ones.
	But they did outlaw the Talmud, which is really what resulted in the...
	The pogroms, I can never pronounce that right, and then the Bolsheviks, and then this back-and-forth battle that's been going on for a very long time involving Russia.
	Right, right.
	That's really fascinating because, you know, one of the things that drives Americans crazy about America is this pro-pedophile indoctrination LGBT nonsense that's preying upon our children.
	And my understanding is that Russia doesn't put up with that at all.
	What did you see?
	And also, what...
	In what city did you live there?
	I was just in Moscow.
	I would love to go back and see St. Petersburg.
	I would love to travel all over, but I was just in Moscow for the whole time.
	They have, because I dug into this with my, this is definitely the LGBTQ thing was one of the things you're curious about because you hear all this propaganda over here in the West about it.
	They have bars.
	I guess you could call them gay bars.
	I don't think they have gay bars like in America, but they have something similar.
	They allow it.
	They forbid it with television as they consider it propaganda to corrupt children.
	They also don't allow other programming.
	I was told, for example, they wouldn't allow...
	I can't remember the name of the show, but there's a show and I guess it's very popular in Great Britain that just shows a lot of depression, drugs and suicide and stuff like that.
	Considered artistic and kind of cool and hip, kind of like train spotting.
	And I was told that they won't allow that type of programming at all, which actually makes sense because what I've learned living through 2020 is that humans are a herd.
	We're really not much different than a herd of cattle.
	I did not understand this at all before 2020. And now that I do, I understand how impressionable we are.
	And if you are to show like a programming that shows like heavy drug use and depression and all this stuff.
	We are, our humans are so easily influenced and heard-like that we will start emulating that.
	Wow.
	It sounds crazy, but if you were to tell me this pre-2020, I probably wouldn't believe you, but I've seen things.
	We've all seen the reality living through this.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	And it's also, you know, COVID was, I believe, a lot of it was an obedience test.
	And the way, for everybody watching, the way you acted in COVID, that tells you who you really are.
	If you resisted all the jabs and masks and everything, then, you know, good for you.
	Or if you eventually resisted, also good for you.
	But if you're still going along with all that nonsense, you're just a herd animal.
	Seriously.
	No other way to say it.
	But Greg, a question for you, and then we'll move on to other topics, but you being an American, Clearly, the people that you talked to there, they knew you were an American.
	You didn't speak Russian.
	How did they treat you as an American, knowing the way that America has stolen $300 billion of Russia's money and blew up Nord Stream Pipeline and all these other things, right?
	America has done a lot of horrible things.
	How did they treat you?
	I think that's an incredible question because exactly a year ago, like I said, it was my first week there.
	And that was the biggest question I had, was I was prepared for someone to spit in my face.
	I was prepared for anything like that.
	And it's kind of a funny story.
	I would joke a lot about it with my other...
	I made some friends there that were from Wales and the UK, and they did not get this treatment.
	Russians do not like the UK. They do not like people from...
	They do not like them at all.
	It's very funny.
	So apparently the story is with them is...
	They'd go somewhere and they'd speak English and the Russian would be like, you know, or where are you from?
	And then they'd be like, Great Britain or Wales?
	And then they'd be like, oh, okay.
	And whereas me, it'd be like, where are you from?
	And I'd be like, America.
	And every single time, it would be just an explosion of like, oh, America!
	And sometimes they'd hug me and they'd just, oh, we love America.
	And I was just blown away by that.
	Some more emotional than others, but everyone's face would light up, and they'd be like, we love you.
	And there was only one, and I'm pretty social, and I mean, I was there for curiosity reasons, so I was definitely meeting more people than I usually do, just out of curiosity.
	There was a woman at the gym I went to who was very friendly and very polite, but I could tell she had feelings.
	I could tell she had negative feelings towards America.
	Like I said, I wouldn't blame her.
	But she was just so polite about it, you couldn't really get her to say it.
	But I could just sense it.
	I could tell that there was that feeling there.
	And I completely get it because the people there, they're living life normally.
	It seemed like they were completely unaffected by COVID. They're all about family.
	They're very innocent-like.
	And I mean that in a very good way.
	There's something very innocent-like about the Russian people where...
	They understand that the most important things in life is your family and your friends, and nothing else really matters.
	And so they focus on those things, and as a result, they seem much happier over there than here.
	But yeah, they love.
	And the other thing I noticed, too, is I was working with some creatives over there, and we were talking about me potentially hosting some shows and stuff, so they were pitching ideas.
	And at one point, they were like, here, we're going to take you out, we're going to do these three shows, and it's three of the most Russian things there are.
	And so the one day was going to be, I can't remember what they call it in Russia, but when the winter breaks and the summer comes, it's like a barbecue season.
	So that's one, barbecue.
	Two is cars.
	They wanted to take me out and show me a bunch of cars and stuff.
	And I was like, are these Russian cars any good?
	And they were kind of laughing, like, well, not really, but they're Russian cars and they're fun.
	And then the third one was Victory Day, which was celebrating World War II. Yeah, that's a huge deal in that culture, isn't it?
	Yeah, so they're basically telling me that you want to hang out with Russians, you drive cars, you eat meat, and show off your guns.
	And that's America to me.
	Well, it sounds like Texas, yeah, actually.
	I can't think of a better friend.
	The biggest...
	The trick that the human herd has been tricked with, I think, is to keep Russia and America from being best buddies.
	But that's all by design.
	That's the Wolfowitz Doctrine.
	It's divide and conquer.
	The U.S. has done that to the Middle East for generations as well.
	It's the same scam.
	Keep everybody divided and let them fight with each other.
	But I agree with you.
	We the people, we don't have a problem with the people of any other country.
	China, you know, Russia, or whatever.
	South America, even Iran.
	I mean, a Persian person that loves their family and loves God has basically the same values, you know, as an American Christian who loves their family and loves God.
	But it's the governments that make us fight each other.
	Yeah.
	I learned a lot about Iran and North Korea when I was there, too, just from meeting...
	Not just Russians, but some also very interesting expats I've met there that travel around to these places.
	And I really would like to go to both those places now because, you know, growing up in America, one thing I know is I don't trust the American government.
	And for some reason, I think I did fall for the anti-Iran, anti-North Korea propaganda, even though I know I shouldn't trust my own government.
	But after talking to people over there that travel there regularly, I really want to go now.
	And I think I was quite wrong about those places as well.
	For one, they're just old places that don't want to be messed with.
	That's really their story.
	Who can blame them?
	Well, and I concur with you.
	I mean, I've been subjected, all of us, since children, we've been subjected, at least in my youth, anti-Soviet propaganda, indoctrination in America, that the Soviets were all bad.
	They want to kill us all.
	If we give them a chance, they're going to nuke us into oblivion.
	And we have to hide under our desks for some reason in grade school, you know, which was insane.
	And now, you know, since 9-11, it's been the anti-Muslim agenda or anti-Arab.
	And then most Americans are so ignorant, they think Sikhs are the same as the Arabs and the Muslims and the Sunni.
	And they're like, they're all the same, you know, and it's nonsense.
	It's just, we have been indoctrinated with so much hatred for the world in America.
	I love the fact that you've lived outside the country in Russia because it really gives you perspective.
	Yeah, it really did.
	I think traveling any time outside of the country gives you perspective, and it's interesting.
	It always makes me appreciate America more when I leave.
	Russia was easy for me because growing up, I was indoctrinated the same way as you were, but I also didn't trust my government at all.
	I grew up in Cleveland, and there was quite a bunch of Russians that were living in Cleveland and stuff, so I got to hang out.
	I just knew right off the bat that I would love it there and that it's all nonsense what they're telling us about it.
	But yeah, the perspective I got was great.
	Another thing I realized is we can complain about our constitution being encroached on and our lack of freedom, but we still have it.
	We still have freedom of speech.
	One of the deciding factors for me to leave, actually, was I was thinking about staying a little bit longer and working, actually, for a large company there that was going to hire me.
	And I could have, if I was directed by money in my life, I would still be there because it would have been fame and money.
	You get paid a lot if you're a non-Russian there.
	And they had a lot of cool ideas.
	That was very exciting.
	And I was very excited about doing it.
	And what finally made me change my mind and come back sooner than I expected was they were having me host a show and I wanted to bring some guests on about the vaccine.
	And they were like, the first...
	It was a very quick, knee-jerk response.
	We're not allowed to talk about the vaccine.
	Really?
	And then I was like, what?
	And then it quickly became, well, we have freedom of speech.
	We're allowed to talk about it.
	It's just not interesting, and it's boring.
	And then I was like, there's nothing boring about the biggest mass murder in all of recorded history by a democide.
	No kidding.
	And so they really were adamant about me doing it, and I was very adamant about that.
	It was a bit of back and forth until finally I couldn't get a straight answer, and it was just, no, no, no, we're not going to talk about the vaccine.
	That's what I was like.
	If I'm going to be shut down by a government, I'd rather be shut down by my own government.
	All right.
	Best quote of the show right there.
	And we have been shut down by our own government, but what's interesting is the censorship regime is crumbling.
	It's actually dismantling itself right now.
	State Department announced they're going to dismantle the $100 million GEC, which is an entity that we have sued in our Brighton lawsuit.
	They named us.
	We sued the DOD and the State Department and Google and so on.
	And they laundered the censorship through overseas NGOs, mostly out of the UK, which then demanded big tech, deplatformed people like you and I. But things are changing dramatically.
	And with Trump's victory, we're going to pivot to Trump now.
	With Trump's victory, even though you and I have a lot of criticism of certain things about Trump, I sure am glad that Kamala didn't win, because now there's a chance here, and there's a good chance of some pretty major changes happening.
	What are your thoughts now, as we're, I don't know, what is it, six weeks away or whatever, before Trump is sworn in, what are your thoughts of Trump running, well, not running, but being the President of the United States again?
	Well, I'm different than a lot of people, maybe in a sense that, like I said, for about 20 years now, my research has led me to believe that we are like on a farm.
	We're on a human farm.
	For lack of a better word, to put it in simple layman's terms, we are some type of livestock, and there is probably some type of creature or group of species or whatever has documents that show that they own us.
	And I don't know what exactly they're...
	They're harvesting.
	Who knows?
	I have no idea.
	But this is where I've been.
	And so I've never voted.
	I don't vote.
	I think voting is just a herding technique for this whole place.
	And when I saw it, I didn't vote for Trump in 2016. And when he first got elected in 2016, I thought, oh, he must be in on it.
	And then in 2017, I saw some things happening.
	And actually, Q got my attention for some strange reason because I was not looking at anything remotely like Q. Someone must have sent it to me, but I got the first Q post on the very first day, which is strange to me.
	And I started looking at that, and then I started seeing some things that were happening where I started thinking, well, maybe there is some type of, you know, the story that was being told is that there is a deep state war, good guys versus bad guys behind the scenes.
	So I said, well, maybe that's true.
	So I started, that's what got me involved in this work, actually.
	I was like, okay, because I was already woken up to this stuff.
	And during the second term of Obama, I was like, well...
	We're going to, everyone's just going back to sleep, so we're going into tyranny and there's no way out of it.
	Because in my opinion, on this farm, the only possible thing we can do is to awaken all of us.
	Not all, I'm not saying not every single human, but the majority of humans all across the world, we have to wake up, see what's happening and say no.
	In my opinion, that sounds crazy, but in my opinion, that's it.
	That's the only thing.
	Everything short of that is nonsense.
	It's hopeless in my opinion.
	That's where I was.
	And then I thought maybe there's a chance with Trump because I thought Trump represented this maybe inside job that was going on.
	And so for about two years, I went with that as a possibility.
	But then after January 6th and after he kept bragging about the vaccines, I would say by the end of 2021. I had a very strong, sick feeling that I was very naive and that nothing is going to change.
	And then I was like, well, let's see what happens in 2024, the election.
	And I was like, I guess if he doesn't get elected, then he's not a part of the plan.
	And if he is elected or selected, then he is a part of the plan.
	And once he was selected, it then within, it stung because I was like, okay, I felt very naive.
	And what do I know?
	I'm just one person.
	This is just my opinion.
	But then over the course of about a week or two, it all kind of soaked in, and I saw it.
	And hindsight is 20-20.
	And one of the reasons I think we're living on a farm is because I don't think we're the smartest creatures on this.
	I don't think the deep state are these drunken fools like Pelosi.
	She's a tool.
	She's an absolute puppet and a tool.
	The people that I'm talking about as the enemy are extremely clever, and it almost seems like they can live much longer than 100 years, and they're able to plan things out.
	For what we would call generational.
	But it seems clear to me now that cryptocurrency is the plan, always was the plan.
	The blockchain is going to be able to replace all these agencies.
	They can get rid of the Fed.
	They can get rid of the EPA. They can get rid of all this stuff.
	They can tokenize it all, put it all in the blockchain.
	It's not all bad because the blockchain allows a certain level of transparency and truth that we've never had before.
	For example, if you're An inventor, a creator, an artist, a musician, a filmmaker, whatever, and you make a piece of work on the blockchain, it's protected and people aren't going to be able to steal that.
	But it also goes the other way with financial transactions.
	There's not going to be any secrecy anymore.
	It's going to be all out in the open.
	And I don't really see any way around it anymore because everyone has put their faith and hope in a puppet who, I mean, the idea that Elon, who's a...
	Obviously a front man for the military-industrial complex.
	I mean, with a little bit of research, it's laid out that that's all he is.
	So the fact that we're going along pretending that he's some kind of boy wonder genius who's going to take on the most ancient power structure of all of recorded history and win, it's a hurting technique because they don't really hate us.
	They want to gently herd us into this new system.
	And while I think they want to trim the herd a great deal, I don't think they hate us.
	That's how I feel.
	People say I'm black-pilled.
	I don't think I'm black-pilled.
	This is just the way I see the world.
	And like I said, the only hope I thought we ever had was to wake up together and kumbaya, join hands and say, F you.
	We're going to live symbiotic with nature the way God intended and all that stuff.
	But I think we maybe missed that boat.
	You're on to something really critical here.
	I'm glad you said that because On my ranch, I have fire ants, right?
	I'll have a fire ant mound that'll show up somewhere.
	I don't hate them.
	How could I hate an ant?
	It's inconsequential to me.
	But it is inconvenient to have that mound right there, so I'll eliminate that mound.
	I think that's the way whoever is running, whatever entity or intelligence is running this, I think that's what they think about us.
	They don't hate us.
	Sometimes they can use us.
	Sometimes we're in the right place.
	Sometimes we're a nuisance and they get rid of us.
	And one of the things that turned me on to this, and I did a speech in 2019 called The Oblivion Agenda at a Steve Quayle conference.
	And in that speech, which was pre-COVID, I laid out the number one clue was the carbon dioxide sequestration out of the atmosphere.
	That it's being sucked out of the atmosphere with these giant machines.
	Which is kind of reminiscent of the sci-fi movie Oblivion with Tom Cruise and Morgan Freeman, by the way.
	That's worth watching because that's not far from the truth, I think.
	But they're taking the CO2 out of the atmosphere and they're piping it.
	I mean, they're compressing it, liquefying it.
	And through these pipelines that they're constructing across middle America, they're putting the CO2 into underground reservoirs.
	Well, if you were going to colonize Mars...
	Mars needs an atmosphere.
	You need CO2. Elon Musk is working on heavy boost, you know, rocket boosting technology and says we have to get off planet in order to have resilience for the human race.
	I think they're taking CO2 from Earth and they're going to ship it to Mars.
	And they're going to, literally.
	I didn't know that they were doing that and that, you know, it's interesting.
	We all have our theories and my theories always, I always keep going back to it.
	It's been so often that I, because I like to question myself too, because I have a dumb human brain as well.
	And so I got to the point where I was like, are you like a depressed, unhappy doomsday person or something?
	Because my research always brought me back to a cataclysm, a cyclic cataclysm.
	It does seem to be one of the biggest secrets in the secret societies is hiding the idea of past civilizations that were buried in dust and cataclysms and stuff.
	And so my research keeps bringing me back there, and it's the only thing that makes sense, because I do think they're on a timeline.
	I definitely think they're on a timeline.
	They are acting like times of the essence, this 20-30 thing.
	They want to clear the surface up a bit.
	They want to funnel people into these 15-minute cities for some reason.
	All this stuff.
	If you were to factor in the fact, if you were to factor in the idea that maybe there's a cataclysm coming in 2040, 2046, or whatever, The surface of the Earth is not going to survive and that people know about it.
	It would explain absolutely every single last thing that's happening.
	I challenge anyone to think of one thing that won't be explained by that.
	And for example, what you're saying right there, that makes sense because they have these underground cities.
	They're probably growing tons of food under there, and so they're going to pump all the good air down there.
	Yeah, and I think the approaching cataclysm is a giant asteroid or comet that's on a collision course or a comet field that's on a collision course.
	And what's interesting to me, I've studied the comet impacts in the Bible, significantly studied that, and I've put out over 100 sermons so far, largely focused on this topic.
	Well, a planetary body, I'm sorry to interrupt really quick, but a planetary body, specifically a comet in most cases, is one of the most common parts of this story that you'll find in myth and history and scripture.
	And massive civilization changes because of comet impacts, including, by the way, what's believed to be an impact, I think, 12,500 years ago that caused the ocean.
	It hit the ice shelf, melted trillions of cubic meters of ice, raised the ocean levels by a few hundred meters, burying all of the coastal civilizations at the time, which...
	It speaks to Atlantis and so many other things, and that's why when we look around the world today, if you go offshore, you go to a depth of 100 meters, 200 meters, you start finding freaking cities and stairways, right?
	It's all there, but it's underwater.
	Yeah.
	I mean, some of it's on the mountaintops, you know, like Machu Picchu and whatever, but a lot of it was coastal because that's where people gather is on the coast because ocean water, you know, fish, obviously, transportation via boats.
	The most efficient transportation.
	So I agree with you.
	I think we've been lied.
	We're living in a Truman Show, man.
	Yeah, I think so.
	Go ahead.
	You speak to him.
	What do you think are the biggest lies in history?
	I like what you said about the ants, actually.
	And I like to use one of my favorite analogies, because it gets better over time, is the...
	The analogy of being a chicken on a chicken farm and kind of waking up and realizing what's going on and trying to tell the other chickens, you know, hey, do you realize they're taking us in this room and they're ripping our feathers off and they're slaughtering us and then they're putting us in trucks and they're stuffing us in these plastic bags and then putting us on these cold shelves and then people are taking us home and eating us, you know?
	And that would seem probably evil to the chicken.
	And the chicken who's out there telling the other chickens is probably thinking, like, this is horrible.
	They're not going to want to hear it.
	Yeah, the other chickens say, stop blackpilling us.
	We're just clucking around here, and why are you blackpilling us?
	Right, but I mean, is it really evil?
	It might be evil from a chicken's perspective, but this is the nature of where we live.
	However you feel about it, this physical reality, everything alive is eating other things that are alive.
	This body that I have...
	It's like, in my opinion, it's like a cow.
	It's not me.
	I'm not a human.
	I'm not white.
	I'm not a man.
	I am a spark of divinity that I am trying to understand more and trying to be respectful of that has this weird opportunity of being inside of a human for about 80 years and experiencing a very strange experience.
	Being a human is a very strange experience, especially these days.
	I mean, it's extremely interesting.
	So I just think it's...
	The biggest, I think one of the biggest conspiracies is that, is trying to trick you that you're the cow, that you're the human, that you're the person.
	Trying to make you, that's what the whole identity politics is.
	It's just another level of getting you to argue over the skin suit, the man bag.
	And that's all it is.
	It's just a suit.
	So I think it's more important for us to realize that life is short and that we maybe are here for something important between us and God.
	Have you covered near-death experiences?
	Because NDEs are being...
	It's gone more mainstream now.
	Like 15 years ago, it was really fringe to talk about life after death.
	I prefer to say life after life.
	Do you believe in the immutability of the human soul?
	I believe that life goes on for sure.
	I have no proof of this, obviously, but this is something I've felt deeply.
	I didn't even question it.
	As long as I can remember, since I was a kid.
	I remember I had a brother who died when I was eight.
	And even then, there wasn't a fragment of me that questioned whether or not he was still around in some way, somewhere.
	It wasn't until I got older where I started understanding that people actually questioned that.
	So it's completely foreign to me, the idea that anyone would even question it.
	It's actually one of the things that keeps me from church.
	I had negative experiences growing up with church.
	I've always been very close to God.
	God's my closest relationship I have.
	And I've tried going to churches in the past just because I move around a lot, and it seems to make sense, like, you'd make friends in the community by going to church.
	But usually I get there, and as soon as I get to the front door, they're like, and I don't mean any disrespect, but the first thing I get is, hey, have you heard the good news?
	Or, you know, you don't have to worry about what happens when you die.
	And it's all about death and the afterlife.
	And I could care less.
	It's like, what I'm more concerned about is this life, because this life isn't going to last long, and I believe, like a lot of people think this is a trap, and we're stuck here, and it's not a good place.
	I don't believe that.
	I mean, maybe, but I don't believe that.
	I believe that there's a good reason why I'm here, that God has for me, that there's probably an agreement I made, or who knows?
	I believe that there's good to do here, and so we don't have much time, and so I think the most important thing is to examine yourself.
	And to never play the victim.
	In fact, you can even look at any situation as something that you're responsible for.
	Because this is a very strange realm we're in.
	And so I find that to be a huge benefit.
	You were about to say something that I think is right on.
	That your soul and God reached an agreement for you to be here in this time.
	And to inhabit this skin suit, as you call it.
	I think so.
	This is a testing ground, right?
	And this is not the real world.
	This is a construct created by our creator, and it feels very real to us.
	Obviously, 3D physical space, a certain flow of time that we can't get out of.
	But beyond this realm, I mean, all the people that I've seen that have had near-death experiences, when they come back, they say that other place was way more real than this place.
	That was home.
	You've seen some of those interviews?
	Yeah, they're all very interesting because they all have a very similar story.
	I'm suspicious of everything.
	One of the best challenges I've heard to the near-death experience is, yeah, but they were never dead.
	Because if they were truly dead, they wouldn't be here.
	It's actually hard to define death, it turns out.
	It is very hard to define death.
	People can go brain dead and still be...
	I did do a report on brain death and I found out scary stuff.
	Organ harvesting.
	Yes.
	It's funny.
	I saw that report that you did and I was on the same topic at the same time because I had a relative of mine who was a drug user, died from a fentanyl overdose.
	It's not like direct family, but sort of...
	But in the family, a kind of distant family.
	But I told his parents, like, don't keep him alive for organ harvesting in the hospital because the hospital was like, you should keep him on the machines.
	Keep his body alive so we can harvest his organs and we can help somebody else.
	And I'm like, no, do not do that because he is probably still experiencing this.
	Yeah.
	And they're going to cut him open while he's experiencing it.
	And they'll give him enough drugs so that they can't scream out.
	Yeah.
	But they're freaking alive.
	They're alive.
	They're conscious.
	They're experiencing freaking organs being ripped out of their chest.
	Yeah.
	That shit happens.
	Yeah.
	It's hard to imagine anything more.
	I mean, that's flaying.
	Or isn't that what they call it?
	Flaying.
	It's a torture technique.
	It's like skinning someone alive.
	I mean, it's absolutely insane.
	That happens every day in America.
	Yeah, it's crazy.
	I think that there's...
	My gut tells me that there's a relationship between the fentanyl being pumped into the country and organ harvesting.
	Totally.
	I actually spent some time trying to find some receipts on that to do a report, and I got to the point, I'm like, you're not going to find anything.
	It's one of those things.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Well, so, I mean, we're almost out of time here, Greg, and we're really getting to the best part of the interview here right now, but I just got to say, I love the fact that you're willing to go down these rabbit holes, or rabbit trails, I think that you're onto something huge here.
	You're questioning our whole reality, which is the right thing to do.
	What's next for you?
	I think what's next for me is to really start learning the system that we're moving into.
	And I went through a bit of a sting going through this.
	At first, I was like, well, what are you giving up?
	Are you quitting?
	Are you throwing the towel?
	You can't beat him, join him.
	And I realized, like I said, I mean, I've always been pretty clear from the very beginning.
	The only thing that's ever going to change anything about the situation we're in is a mass awakening unity event where we stand up next to each other and say no.
	And what I've learned over the past few years is that's not going to happen because people are way more happy being divided.
	No one talks about the government.
	Everyone's talking about the left or the right or the Jews or whatever.
	Everyone's got a group, a tribe that they're in, and they blame other tribes, and that's just part of the human herd splitting up into tribalism.
	Once you see all this tribalism happening, that tells me, okay, well, this isn't going to happen then, and we're going into the system, whether you like it or not.
	And so I'm spending a lot of time trying to learn what's happening.
	I don't believe it's going to be all bad.
	I believe it's just a huge reset.
	It is a huge economic reset.
	It's even written in the stars.
	Whether or not you believe in following astrology, you cannot deny that astrology is some type of pattern, some type of script of this matrix that we're in.
	It reflects very deeply in this matrix, whatever it is.
	And the age of Aquarius, which is what we're moving into, if you look at Aquarius, what that means, it does mean more technology, believe it or not, that's in there, and more control.
	Like I said, there is going to be a level of freedom that we haven't had also.
	It's not all black and white.
	It's not all good or bad.
	It's both.
	We're going into a very strange time, so my next step is...
	Is going to be learning about that more, reporting on it more, because I do believe that, okay, so maybe we can't pull back the entire curtain and expose the dragon.
	Maybe we're not going to do that.
	But what we could do is we could distance ourselves from the herd so we don't get trampled to death.
	We could start setting up systems of our own right now so that we can go into this age as less of a slave as possible.
	One of the interesting things to me is, for example, the UCC. That's a subject I haven't done much reports on because there's not a lot of meat there.
	But the whole idea of the UCC is this system set up where the birth certificate is sort of a bond that has value.
	The birth certificate represents this human cow that I'm walking around with.
	It has a lot of value.
	We all have these birth certificates, and this is sort of our registration in the old UC system.
	And for many decades, people were trying to figure out how to break the code in that UCC and gain freedom back from these contracts that were made by our parents and by our governments and stuff like that.
	And now that we're entering into this new system, it seems to me to make sense that there is an opportunity to start right off the bat in a proper way and get good contracts done and get things set up in a way where you're not a complete slave.
	I think there must be a remedy.
	That's part of the system.
	They do have rules that they seem to play by on this human farm, and one of those rules is you have to provide a remedy.
	Which is part of why they allow people like you and me, I think, to do the work that they do is because they have to allow people to tell the truth about things.
	They have to allow people to know what's going on.
	That's one of the rules here.
	So, yeah, I'm going to focus on where we're going.
	And another part of focusing on where we're going is the exodus.
	Because if they make you take, like, a chip in order to play in this system, I won't do it.
	But I don't think that's going to be it.
	I think that's part of this good cop, bad cop thing.
	I think when they finally get there, it's going to be like, oh, you don't need a chip.
	And that's part of the psychology to get people to be like, oh, sweet, awesome.
	But if there is a chip or something like that involved, I don't think I'll do it.
	I'm pretty clear on that.
	And I imagine a lot of other people won't either.
	So that would mean there's going to be an exodus, I would imagine, to somewhere.
	I don't know where.
	So I'll be looking into that as well.
	Are there any states?
	I don't think so.
	Not in America.
	But are there any states that are...
	Actually considering to go their own way?
	I don't really think so at this point, but I'll be looking into that as well.
	All right.
	Well, it's going to be a fascinating time to be alive.
	2025, I think, is going to be the craziest time before and beyond.
	It's going to be the fulcrum moment.
	100%.
	It's wild.
	Well, Greg, we're going to look forward to your continued reports, and your website is reesreport.com.
	And, you know, please...
	Please keep me posted and always feel free to post on Brighteon and our social media sites, brighteon.social, etc.
	We welcome all your content.
	I think you're just one of the best curious thinkers and documenters of this strange time.
	So please keep up your work and let us know how we can help you.
	Thank you very much, Mike.
	It's always a pleasure talking to you.
	Thank you so much.
	Have a great day.
	And thank all of you for watching.
	I hope you enjoyed this interview.
	That was Greg Reese from Reese Report.
	Check out his website and his content.
	Sometimes you'll find his videos posted on my channel on Brighteon.com when I happen to find a really incredible video that he does.
	He does so many, and a lot more are coming.
	Thank you all for watching today, and get ready.
	2025 is going to be interesting.
	I'm Mike Adams of Brighteon.com.
	Take care.
	I've put together a whole lot of third-party partners.
	With discount codes on this website, rangerdeals.com.
	Definitely check out this website.
	You are going to save a bundle on things that you need to be prepared.
	Be prepared for pandemics.
	Be prepared for financial collapse.
	Let me just walk you through some of this.
	Like right here, 10% off of PetMectin, which is ivermectin labeled for pets.
	Discount code Ranger.
	And just click that right there.
	And it goes to a third-party company.
	This icon indicates that they compensate us with product donations that we then donate out to other people.
	So we kind of have an affiliate relationship here, but they don't pay us cash.
	They pay us in product that we donate out to other people in need through our church, by the way.
	So a lot of these, they just gift back to us, to our church, and then we donate that out to people who need it.
	If you scroll down, you'll see...
	Also, we've got chlorine dioxide down here somewhere.
	Where did it go?
	Here it is, Safrax.
	10% off chlorine dioxide.
	If you don't have a supply of chlorine dioxide, you absolutely need to get some of this and learn about it.
	And there's the button right there.
	In addition, to be prepared financially for what's coming, we've got three different sources of gold and silver here on rangerdeals.com.
	So one of these is called Prepper Bars.
	You can save 10% off.
	And that's these guys right here.
	Where you have like breakaway silver pieces, there's like, I'm just kind of showing you, you can break this off, or you can break these off individually.
	They become one-tenth of an ounce, one-twentieth of an ounce, or one-fourth of an ounce, etc.
	So these prepper bars are really handy.
	People love those.
	And then we've got goldbacks, which have real physical gold embedded in each goldback.
	Very divisible form of gold.
	This has one one-thousandth of an ounce of gold.
	You're actually looking at the gold.
	It's just flattened out.
	It's very thin, obviously, at one one-thousandth of an ounce.
	But they have higher denominations.
	So you can find a link to that here on rangerdeals.com.
	Or if you just want mainstream, you know, like silver coins, gold coins in the one-ounce format, you can also find those with our gold and silver supplier here at rangerdeals.com.
	We've also got 10% off the Trends Journal with Gerald Salenti.
	That's right here.
	We've got $50 off the de-Googled phones at Above Phone.
	10% off the RNC supplements.
	That's vitamin B17, Laetrile, which is featured by G. Edward Griffin on his book, World Without Cancer.
	We've got, you can save money off of heirloom seeds.
	You can save money on satellite phones here from the satellite phone store, sat123.com.
	And on top of that, we've got here, we've got Shield Arms where you can have folding AR-15s, custom Glocks.
	You can actually save money on high-end firearms here with this link.
	We've got Nessa's Hemp, a CBDA, very high CBDA, a cannabidiolic acid, which has its own efficacy.
	We've got 10% off holsters with 1791 gun leather, 10% off body armor with hoplite.
	You know, you can save money on the Patriot Green products, the compost products, so much more, the portable power stations, solar generators, and here's a discount off of a movie.
	So much more.
	We're adding to this all the time, but just go to rangerdeals.com to see our current specials and the discount codes that can save you a bundle on things that can help you get prepared.
	And these are things that we don't sell in our store.
	We don't sell ivermectin and gold and silver.
	Or things like that.
	Or firearms, obviously.
	So these are third-party partners that offer things that we don't offer or can't offer ourselves.
	And we've negotiated these discounts for you.
	So take advantage of all that at rangerdeals.com.
	Get prepared.
	Interesting times ahead, that's for sure.
	Thanks for watching.
