Time Text
Welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News with Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Sure is a lot going on right now, huh?
Welcome to Brighton Broadcast News for Thursday, February 20th, 2025. I'm Mike Adams, and I hope you are staying warm.
We are freezing our nuts off here in Texas, by the way, and Texas isn't nearly as cold as what's north of us.
So those of you in, well, gosh, I don't know, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, and even farther north, You must be really freezing right now because we're at 20 degrees Fahrenheit in Texas and we think that's like crazy cold.
And my goats are complaining and they have their fur all poofed out.
Goats go into poof mode when they need more insulation.
They do.
They poof their hair out.
It's like a goat afro, basically.
It's like a goat fro.
And they go full goat fro and then it's like they have excellent insulation.
Pretty handy, actually.
So yeah, I got a goat that looks like O.J. Simpson from the 1970s.
This is so awesome.
Fully functional hair.
Love it.
Alright, so anyway, we've got this interview coming up with Crypto Rich, who is, this is a decentralized TV interview, and it's not even really about crypto, hardly.
It's about the much bigger picture of what's happening between the United States and the city of London, what's happening with gold, what's happening with Trump.
Why has Keir Starmer lost his freaking mind?
And it seems like all of Western Europe is on a suicide cult, self-destruction, like, let's set ourselves on fire kind of mood for some reason.
I mean, the leadership, not the people.
The people must be going insane watching this nonsense.
But it's a great interview, so stay tuned for that.
I think you'll really love it.
And then today from the Bright Learn bookshelves here.
We've got a book video on a book by Annie Jacobson called Phenomena, The Secret History of the U.S. Government's Investigations into Extrasensory Perception and Psychokinesis.
Oh yeah, that's going to be quite a topic, especially given what's coming to light.
And then we have another book video for you called The Power to Control, How the Elite Conspire Against You by Tom.
P-A-N-E. I know it sounds like Thomas Paine from the founding of our nation.
So I don't know if that's a fake name or just happens to be the same.
Seems like it must be a pen name.
It's too close to Thomas Paine.
But anyway, you'll love that book video as well.
Great stuff coming your way.
And of course, there's so much amazing, great news.
And for sure, today, we know.
We know that...
Team Trump is serious about taking this country back.
They are not playing around.
They're not playing around with gold.
They are repatriating all the gold from London.
It's probably going to be a giant global gold delivery default real soon.
Hey, if you missed my interview with Andy Sheckman yesterday, go back and watch that.
Or was it two days ago?
Go back and watch that because Andy nails it.
Something, I'm really starting to get an intuitive sense of this, just beyond the numbers and beyond the interviews and the sources and the experts and whatever.
I'm starting to get an intuitive sense that there's going to be a global gold panic and silver, gold and silver panic, like we have never witnessed in our lifetimes.
And I get the feeling that...
Gold and silver are going to be, well, as Steve Quayle says, unobtainium.
They won't be available, at quantity anyway, at any price.
At any price.
There's going to be such a mad scramble.
And it looks like the gold delivery markets, or at least out of the Bank of England, could collapse within a matter of just a couple of weeks.
Maybe a few weeks, maybe a handful of weeks.
It does not look good.
And I don't know what happens after that if there's basically a London gold default and the London gold vaults, what is supposed to be there with the Bank of England, that whole scheme collapses way bigger than Bernie Madoff, way bigger than FTX collapse, way bigger than...
.com collapse or Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac subprime mortgage collapse.
We're talking about a global collapse in the paper valuations, the paper holdings of gold that people think are real.
It turns out they're not real because they're not backed by real physical gold.
And then those paper contracts are going to start diving towards zero.
And the price of physical gold...
It's going to skyrocket to who knows where.
There's going to be this mad divergence between paper gold, which will be considered largely worthless, and physical gold, which will be considered extremely valuable.
That's what I suspect is about to happen.
So watch the Andy Sheckman interview again if you haven't.
And I'm trying to understand this as best I can.
I don't claim to be the world's top expert on gold, just to be clear.
But my understanding...
Is that the gold market, the gold deliveries are about to freaking break, which has never happened in our lifetimes.
And I don't even know how far back in history you have to go to find something like that.
Maybe to the collapse of previous empires or something.
Rome?
I don't know.
It's going to be historic, whatever it is.
And if you have gold, you're going to be super happy about...
The value that it holds, and if you don't have gold and you have just currencies, you're going to be extremely unhappy.
In fact, I tweeted out a joke on this that people laughed at.
Pop quiz, where does the Federal Reserve store all the extra dollars it prints?
The answer, of course, is in debasement.
So, there you go.
Oh, I also have a special report for you today that we'll play later.
It's called...
Federal workers being cut from wasteful agencies are like intestinal parasites.
They are parasites on all of us.
They're parasites on the system.
And you should do with them the same thing you do with intestinal parasites, which is to flush twice and then initiate a systemic anti-parasite detox program, which today, that's called DOGE. Yeah, don't you want an anti-parasite detox?
Hey, this country needs ivermectin.
This country needs a deworming medication.
You know, it's called Doge.
Oh, man.
Maybe some fenbendazole thrown in there, too.
We've got to get rid of these parasites.
At least get them off the government payrolls.
All right.
In the meantime, we've got two big breaking news stories here that I think are highly relevant.
The first one is that President Trump, his administration, Has now officially designated multiple Mexican cartels as, quote, foreign terrorists.
This is a very big deal.
Now, this designation refers to Sinaloa Cartel, Los Zetas, Juarez Cartel, La Familia Michoacana.
Which I think also brings us a lot of avocados, so I'm very sorry to hear that they're going to be targeted.
I hope they don't blow up the avocado farms, you know, the orchards is all I'm saying.
Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación is also targeted, and some others.
So Los Caballeros, what a fun name.
Templarios, they're targeted as well.
Anyway, a number of these are targeted, and what this means is that the U.S. government...
Which has been running Reaper drones, Reaper drone flights over, you know, cartel areas and over areas of Mexico and also intel gathering surveillance planes, you know, military planes have been flying up and down the so-called Gulf of California, which is to the east of Baja there and to the west of Sonora, the northwestern portion of continental Mexico.
In essence, the U.S. military is now about to shift its mission significantly.
Now, let me paint the big, big picture for you here.
Wisely, Trump is ending the war with Russia, between Russia and Ukraine.
Trump is on the record now saying that Zelensky is an unelected dictator.
Trump is calling for new elections.
And Trump is making friends with Russia.
Diplomatic ties have been reestablished now officially with Russia, and negotiations are underway in Saudi Arabia right now between Russian and American diplomats.
What's going to happen, and you've heard me talk about this for a long time, what's going to happen is Zelensky is going to be thrown under the bus, obviously.
There's going to be a new election, and then the new elected leader of Ukraine will sign essentially a surrender to Russia, but it won't be called a surrender.
It'll be called a peace accord or something like that.
And Trump will be shoving this down the throat of whatever leader is in Ukraine.
That's already apparent.
And Trump is going to demand that we extract $500 billion in mineral resources out of Ukraine, which Zelensky has said no, which is probably a suicide wish on Zelensky's part.
But the new president, We'll say yes, obviously, because he doesn't want to die.
And Ukraine is going to end up signing an end to the conflict with Russia.
Russia is going to get all the territory that it already holds, and maybe more.
Ukraine is going to be insanely pruned back.
It's going to lose a tremendous amount of land and resources, and of course the whole Crimea region, and probably much, much more.
Ukraine will never be allowed to join NATO. And Ukraine may lose access along its southern coastline to the sea.
It may lose its ports, like Odessa.
That would be really devastating to Ukraine.
And I'm not here, actually, to talk about the Ukraine situation so much, but just setting the context, although I'm very grateful for the idea that the good people of Ukraine could maybe raise their families without war.
Without...
Air raid sirens and drone attacks and Russian missile attacks and not knowing if you're going to be blown up the next day.
And also not having freedom of speech and not having elections and not having a functioning free market supply of things that you need.
I mean, the people of Ukraine have suffered.
And it's not their fault.
It's the fault of Western leaders.
It's the fault of Boris Johnson.
It's the fault of Joe Biden.
It's the fault of Victoria Nuland.
It's the fault of the French leaders and the German leaders and the other UK leaders.
And it's the fault of Zelensky for going along with all those Western lunatics, but it's not the fault of the people of Ukraine.
They deserve better.
They deserve peace.
And so I am praying that there is peace soon.
And I believe there will be, because Trump needs to get out of Ukraine, and he needs to redirect the U.S. military to fighting the drug cartels.
And that's a war that the U.S. military can win.
And this is really, really important.
This is a morale war as much as a geopolitical war and also an interdiction war against drug trafficking, human trafficking, and weapons trafficking across the U.S. southern border.
So remember, the U.S. military facing off against Russia looks really weak, incompetent, incapable.
The entire U.S. military could not defeat Russia.
Not to say that the entire military was deployed, but if they were, they still could not defeat Russia because, well, you know, I mean, Russia has proven to be masterful at land warfare and artillery and military production, industrial production, domestic steel production, domestic armored vehicle production, tank production, hypersonic missile systems, the Oreshnik systems, the anti-air defense systems.
Electronic countermeasures and so on.
Russia has proven to be, like, shockingly really capable.
Maybe not shocking to those who know Russians because Russians are very capable people, but rather shocking to the West, okay?
Especially to the Western propagandists and the liars and Reuters and Associated Press who told us that, oh, Russia's losing and all their soldiers are fleeing and they've run out of missiles and they've run out of everything.
You know, all lies, all propaganda.
Which I said, I've been saying this the entire time, right?
Because it was obvious.
Russia was going to win this conflict and the U.S. could not win.
The U.S. could not defeat Russia.
And the U.S. military, which went full woke-tard under Joe Biden, has massive internal morale problems because you got promoted if you were a lesbian, if you were transgender.
If you had surgery and mutilated your genitals, then you got to be a commander or a general or whatever.
It was insane.
All that has come to an end, or at least the beginning of the end, under Pete Hegseth, who I initially opposed, but I'm actually really happy with the things that he has done so far.
So I'm always open to changing my opinion of people based on their behavior, and so far I'm really impressed with Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense.
I think so far he's doing a great job.
And I also think Marco Rubio is doing a great job.
And I never thought that I would say that about Marco Rubio.
So, hey, I stand corrected.
Sometimes, maybe under Trump's command here, these people are really turning around.
It's quite something.
Anyway, the U.S. military needs a war it can win.
And it's going to take many years to change the culture back to a culture of strong, mostly male warriors.
The warrior culture is what you need in a military to win wars.
And frankly, we don't have a warrior culture in the younger soldiers in the military.
It's the woke culture that's got to change.
That change has begun.
But in the meantime, the military needs an enemy they can actually defeat.
Enter the Mexican drug cartels.
I'm not saying that the drug cartels are just easy pickings or like shooting fish in a barrel.
No, not at all.
In fact, as I have stated here many times, the drug cartels are very sophisticated.
They are led by very intelligent and very resourceful people.
And it would be extremely dangerous for the U.S. military to underestimate the capabilities of these various cartels.
The cartels have a decentralized structure.
They've mastered the art of logistics.
They've mastered the art of supply chain redundancy, which is something that the U.S. military is not very good at, by the way.
And the Mexican cartels have really been able to do a lot with a relatively small amount of money.
For example, making their own armored vehicles without spending billions of dollars with a big military contractor in the U.S. Grab steel plates and start welding them on and beef up the chassis of these heavy-duty vehicles.
They just Mad Max the thing.
They just make Mad Max vehicles.
They look badass and they're armored.
They're heavily armored.
They can withstand everything except maybe.50 caliber rounds.
Well, certainly not RPGs, but I mean, any common small arms fire, they are completely immune to that.
Even they cover their tires and everything.
They cover the...
Even the front grill, it's hard to shoot out the engine block unless you have a 50 cal, which will tend to accomplish lots of things involving vehicles.
But not everybody's running 50 cals, you know what I mean?
So the drug cartels have proven to be incredibly resilient, incredibly well-funded, and also I think the leaders of these cartels, by and large, this is just my impression, I think they tend to be very well-educated, high IQ people, many of them educated in Western universities.
They are, you know, PhD-level IQ people who are running very sophisticated organizations.
However, that said, they are no match ultimately for the brute force of the United States military if Trump can get the military.
Out of Europe, or at least the focus of the military out of Europe, and then redirect that focus to the southern border of the United States.
So what I anticipate is a U.S. military war that happens both in the United States and in Mexico.
So we are going to see military action on both sides of the border.
And we're going to see cartel military action on both sides of the border.
So what this means is that the cartels, or the narcos, they're going to set off bombs at police stations or sheriff's offices in America.
They're going to bomb targets, targets of opportunity, right?
They're going to set fire to whatever, buildings or forests or...
Farm fields, whatever they can set fire to.
You know, the drug cartels are essentially going to say, I believe, they're going to say, well, hey, if the military brings the war across the border to us, we're going to go across the border and we're going to operate in the United States.
And the thing is, they're already in the United States.
They're already here.
So there are cartel organizations obviously all the way throughout Texas.
Arizona, California, New Mexico, but not just the border states.
We're talking Colorado, too.
I mean, frankly, to some degree, almost every U.S. state has a cartel presence, and the cartel drug trafficking routes move through all the states, including Florida, and including the Midwest, including Kansas, including Nevada, and Utah, for that matter.
Yeah, even Mormons do coke, I suppose.
Or some of them do.
Everywhere in the country, right?
There are people doing cocaine everywhere in the country.
It's not just New York and Chicago and L.A., although maybe those are the capitals of it.
I don't know.
But there's people doing coke and meth and fentanyl everywhere, right?
So there's demand everywhere, which means there are narco assets everywhere, one way or another.
If the cartels decide...
If they put out the order, like, hey, we're going to war with the U.S. law enforcement, then we end up seeing a guerrilla warfare scenario in America where on any given day, the drug cartels could be bombing a grocery store, right?
Or bombing, I mean, whatever.
You know, name your target.
Bridges, ports, power grid substations, you know, refineries I already mentioned.
And they'll probably be going to the storage facilities that we've talked about so many times and that Matt Bracken has talked about.
And I've talked about this with Michael Yon and some of my other contacts.
Remember my interview with HICAP? We talked about this.
We know about the cross-border traffic.
We know about the anti-personnel landmines.
We know about the drone cargo in Arizona and how they're dropping off illegal weapon systems using drone flights, etc.
So we know all about this.
The State Department knows all about this.
Secret Service knows about this to protect Trump.
High-level law enforcement now know all about this.
These are not secrets.
The Mexican cartels, and it's not just Mexican, but the cartels, they have access in America to things like police uniforms, RPGs, suicide vests, explosive suicide vests.
They have access to thermal...
Night vision and regular light amplification, night vision.
They have access to drop-in full auto triggers for AR-15s and AK-47s.
They have access to ballistic vests.
What else?
Comms equipment.
What am I leaving out here?
Oh, yeah.
Surface-to-air missiles.
There's one.
You know, SAMs.
Oh, yeah.
And there's that.
Oh, yeah.
They can shoot airplanes out of the sky.
They probably won't try to target Delta flights because Delta keeps crashing their airplanes on their own anyway, but they'll target civilian flights or whatever, and you could very easily see aircraft disasters, civilian aircraft disasters, that have nothing to do with the military, but it's the narcos, the cartels, that are waging their kind of guerrilla warfare in America.
At the same time that that's happening, the U.S. military...
We'll be absolutely devastating cartel targets in Mexico across many regions without mercy.
We're talking, you know, bombing runs, cruise missiles, you know, Apache gunship rocket attacks and whatever else you can think.
I mean, every kind of munition that we still have left that we haven't already sent to Ukraine or Israel, it's going to be used against the narcos.
And then the military-industrial complex is going to cheer because they're like, yay, new contract to build more weapons.
But the real turning point in this, or I should say the real tipping point, would be if U.S. Abrams' tanks start rolling into Mexico.
That would be, I mean, that would be, if it's done without the permission of Mexico's president, who would never agree to that because she's...
Of course, controlled by the drug cartels.
Then that would be an act of war.
That would be a U.S. invasion of Mexico.
And what's really interesting to me about this, even ironic, is that the West criticized Russia for running a special military operation against Ukraine when Russia said that, you know, Ukraine has become a threat to us because all the Western missiles are being put in Ukraine and the bioweapons labs are in eastern Ukraine, etc.
And we, Russia, need to go into Ukraine and demilitarize this area.
That was part of the special military operation.
Is that what it's called?
SMO? That was part of their narrative.
So we have to demilitarize this and denazify it.
Well, if the U.S. starts rolling tanks into Mexico, it's going to be pretty much the same story.
Like, oh, these narcos, they're a threat to our security, and we have to roll into Mexico in order to neutralize the threat and demilitarize these northern provinces of Mexico.
And isn't that exactly what the Western press criticized Russia for doing?
Isn't it exactly the same?
Yes, it is.
The hypocrisy is so thick, you know, you could slice it with a knife here.
Nevertheless...
This is where it's going, folks.
And I don't know about you, but I think at some point you have to stand up and you have to take a stand against the violence and the drug trafficking and the open borders, the human trafficking and everything.
Don't you?
At some point?
I'm not sure that I support every single tactic or decision or what have you, but this is something where the U.S. military can actually be effective.
And they need some wins.
And these are going to be wins they can achieve because they can blow stuff up in Mexico.
I mean, I don't know if you call that a win or whatever, but it's going to be all over CNN. This is going to be like the Gulf War all over again from 1991, except instead of Charles Jaco faking like he was in Saudi Arabia when he was really broadcasting from a CNN studio like a Saturday Night Live skit.
In this case, the footage is going to be real, and it's going to be U.S. missiles and bombs blowing up narco bases all over Mexico.
That's what this is going to look like.
And, you know, the average American is going to sit down and sit on the couch with a tub of popcorn and a couple of beers like, Go America!
You know, they're going to be cheering this on.
This is going to be, like, very patriotic, you can tell.
Like, blow them up, you know?
And Trump's going to be like, we're kicking ass.
Like, we're winning so much, you're going to get tired of winning.
Kaboom, kaboom, kaboom.
You can already see, you know, patriots waving flags.
Blow them up!
You know, like, that's where this is going.
I'm not going to be doing that rah-rah stuff because I don't like war.
I don't want to see civilians in the way.
There's going to be some civilians, obviously, that will be unintentionally hit.
The U.S. military won't be intentionally, obviously, you know, killing civilians.
But it just happens.
You know, some of it's going to happen.
That's just, it's not the targets.
Those aren't the rules of engagement, but it's going to happen.
So, you know, you're going to see propaganda out of Mexico or the cartels, like, rolling out, like, blown up children.
It's like, look, look what the U.S., the evil U.S. empire blew up our children.
You know, you're going to see that.
So just be ready for that.
And then the U.S. military, you know, Pete Hegseth is going to say something like, you know, We didn't target them, and the drug cartels were using them as human shields, and this is the cost of war, basically.
I mean, I can already write the whole script, okay?
Because it is scripted.
And it's an obvious script.
I can practically almost have a crystal ball on this one.
I can tell you how this is going to go.
That is, if they pull the trigger on this, if they decide to do this, it's pretty easy to see how this is going to go.
And part of the script is going to be like Mexican cartels.
They're going to kidnap Border Patrol agents from the U.S. or they're going to kidnap, you know, sheriffs or kidnap law enforcement.
And they're going to put them on camera and they're going to torture them until they, quote, confess to being part of an illegal invasion of Mexico.
You know, you're going to see like prisoners of war on the TV. Or on the internet, I suppose.
And then you're going to see calls where YouTube has to ban the video because it's Mexican cartel propaganda.
Again, I can write the whole script because I've been around long enough to know how this goes.
And then poor Pete Hegseth, he's going to be in the position of having to start churning out numbers.
Like, we hit 217 targets.
We interdicted $57 billion of cocaine.
And, you know, we eliminated this many supply chains and this many vehicles and we destroyed this many cartel bases and this many cocaine production facilities.
So you're going to start seeing numbers coming out and these numbers are going to be designed to convince you that it's all worth it.
And maybe it is.
Maybe it is.
You notice I'm not saying necessarily that I oppose getting aggressive with all the trafficking, right?
I'm not even...
I'm not yet telling you what I think personally about all of this.
I'm just trying to describe what I think is going to happen.
Part of that's going to be a bunch of numbers coming out of how much damage we did, how much stuff we blew up, and why we're winning.
Then there's going to be a pushback like, oh, there's some dead U.S. soldiers in this whole thing.
There's some body bags coming, or coffins, flag-draped coffins coming back.
And then there's going to be a call in the Pentagon like, don't show those on the media.
Nobody take any photos.
We don't want to remind Americans that any soldiers are dying.
And then the parents of those soldiers are going to get letters, oh, you're a 25-year-old.
He died in a training accident.
Yeah, nothing to do with the war in Mexico.
Died in a training accident.
Again, you can already write the script, right?
Those of you in the military, you're nodding along with me because you're like, yeah, that's exactly how this is going to go.
And those of you who are old enough, you know where I'm going next with this because you know where this whole thing is going, and all you've got to do is you've got to write the word Mexico, M-E-X-I-C-O, on a piece of paper, and then you cross that out, and you write a different word in its place, and that's spelled V-I-E-T-N-A-M, Vietnam.
So Mexico becomes Vietnam.
In North America.
Right.
Exactly.
And then Trump gets dragged into a Vietnam with the drug cartels.
And what do I mean by Vietnam?
What I mean is a guerrilla war that you can't ever really win.
You can blow a lot of s*** up.
You can do a lot of damage.
You can roll out numbers.
And yes, probably you can interdict.
Some significant percentage of cross-border traffic of drugs and children and weapons and whatever they're bringing across, right?
But at the end of the day, Mexico is a culture.
And I don't mean every single Mexican person.
I'm not attributing this to every single Mexican person.
But the Mexican nation is a nation with a strong cultural contingent of profiting from trafficking.
It is a pillar of the Mexican economy, and it's such a strong pillar that it infiltrates Mexico's military, Mexico's media, and Mexico's government and other institutions.
Just have no illusions about that.
If you didn't know that, if that's a surprise to you, no, you haven't been paying attention.
But trafficking into North America, or into the United States, trafficking into the United States is a...
A massive pillar of the Mexican culture.
And you can't simply defeat that by blowing things up because you end up in a guerrilla warfare scenario and what you end up doing is you create the next generation of people, you know, the 12-year-olds and the 13-year-olds whose daddy gets blown up by the U.S. Apache helicopter.
Well, that kid, five years later, he's...
Like a dedicated, you know, narco hitman or whatever.
You create even more resistance and you end up creating the next generation of cartel traffickers who are willing to die to get back in America.
And the way they see getting back in America is flooding the country with drugs and trafficking and profiting off the American people.
You see?
There's a different approach to this that I'll suggest.
What if you don't have to destroy a bunch of targets in Mexico?
What if you don't have to send in tanks and blow everything up?
What if you just build a really secure wall?
I don't mean just a wall.
I mean you designate almost a DMZ. You have a demilitarized zone that is maybe...
A kilometer from the border, a kilometer south of the border, you say, nobody's allowed in this kilometer.
We only want to see cactus and rattlesnakes and scorpions.
Any humans in this kilometer, you're going to get picked up, arrested, or hit with paintballs or whatever.
Non-lethal stuff.
I'm not saying to mine it, but I am saying we need to run...
Really strong security with drones and thermal cameras.
I mean, we have the technology.
We can automate a lot of this, and real soon we can just roll robots out, like dog bots, just patrolling the border with dog robots all day long.
You don't even need tons of people to do it.
Now, it's a big border, don't get me wrong, and I know there's also a lot of shoreline, you know, they can use boats and everything, but it's easier to interdict boats.
Much easier to spot on the open water than a bunch of mules hiding in the, you know, the chaparral bushes in the deserts of Arizona or whatever.
So if you build a really, really secure wall, and I mean you start with a physical wall.
You build a wall across the whole freaking thing, and where you have the rivers, you put in the floating buoys as Texas has done.
That's effective.
It's hard to swim across the buoys.
So you use buoys and walls, and then you use drones.
And Terminator dog bots or whatever.
And you combine that with, you know, aircraft and all kinds of things, right?
You make a super secure border.
Then the Narcos can't get stuff across.
Your problem solved.
You don't have to go in and blow up supply chains and buildings and whatever.
You don't have to expend a bunch of cruise missiles.
You just have to have a really, really secure border, which is not a small task.
I understand that.
It's a crazy, large, long border.
Maybe it's the largest border of any country in the world.
I don't know.
Probably China has a bigger border.
Maybe Russia has a bigger border.
But it's up there.
It's a big border.
It stretches from Tijuana on the west coast there with California all the way to Matamoros in kind of the...
The southern tip of Texas on the Gulf Coast side, right?
Long border.
But you have to secure it, and then you solve the problem.
And you solve a lot of problems with that because you stop the illegals coming in.
You stop not only the narcos.
You stop the drugs.
You stop the human trafficking.
You stop it all.
So I would hope, for me personally, I do realize we need to stop the narcos trafficking.
I suggest that we focus on border security.
Because I think that's much more difficult for people to argue with.
Shouldn't we have a secure border?
And also, I don't really want to set a precedent of the U.S. invading Mexico.
I have issues with that.
You know, issues of, oh, I don't know, international law?
Seems illegal somehow.
To just invade another country, a neighboring country with tanks and what have you.
But that seems like where this is going and I think it's a bad idea.
So that's just, that's my opinion on the matter.
However, if Hegseth and Trump decide that the only way to achieve this is to, I don't know, roll tanks into certain areas and just blow up a bunch of stuff and send a message and then come back across the border.
To refuel or whatever?
Okay.
I mean, I can live with that.
It's not my first preference, but I'm not going to go crazy.
I'm not going to protest it with...
I'm not going to be in the streets marching with protest signs.
It's not my first choice, but I can live with it if that's the way this goes.
Just saying.
All right.
Now, aside from that, it looks like the radical left...
Now, this is trending.
All over Reddit and other left-wing sites, left-wing social media sites, where they all fled when they left Twitter.
They're calling for a 1789 France-style revolution.
And this phrase, 1789 France, which refers to, of course, the socialist, violent takeover of the country of France, which turned it into the socialist libtard capital that it is today, complete with guillotines, by the way.
They chopped off people's heads.
And, you know, it was a violent revolution against the political leadership of the day, and it installed a bunch of Marxists and socialists who are still in power in France.
I mean, look at Macron.
He would be right at home leading the 1789 French Revolution.
Well, the leftists in America now, they are claiming that America is becoming like Nazi Germany.
And so they are saying we need a 1789 French Revolution.
Yeah.
Now, the rest of us looking at this, you know, first of all, we kind of satirically, half-jokingly say, oh, dear God, please let them try it, you know?
I don't mean that literally, but...
Wouldn't it be great if they announced the 1789 French Revolution in America, and they announced the place, and then we could all just go there and watch as they assemble 10,000 purple-haired, obese people with nose rings who trip over themselves and can't even handle rifles or firearms of any kind, not without shooting each other, obviously, accidentally.
I think I would pay to buy tickets to that.
I just want to see that attempt to happen.
Like rolling their guillotines down the field and finding they don't roll.
They keep falling over.
And then the leftists are too unhealthy, obese, and out of breath to even make it across the field.
It's like, well, we started the 1789 French Revolution and then we found out we really just need French toast.
And just all the self-identifying...
I want to see rainbow flags on the guillotines indicating that they're the transgenders coming for the heads of Trump and Trump's people.
This would be really entertaining, obviously, to watch them just try it.
Because they pose no real threat.
To America.
And I am quite certain that there's a whole lot of veterans and law enforcement and conservatives all over America, you know, gun-owning Americans that love this country and love America, love the American flag, love the Constitution, that are probably just saying maybe out loud, you know, hey, come and take it, you know?
Come and take it.
Give it a shot.
Try your best.
Let's see what you got.
Because it's so laughable to think that these disorganized, incompetent libtards who are so stupid they think men can have babies that they can organize some kind of an actual revolt.
They wouldn't make it outside their own neighborhoods.
So if they started setting fire to things, they're just burning their own neighborhoods down, which would also be Something to see.
Like, wow, after the California fires, you're starting more of them in your own cities?
What is this?
Well, they're just burning themselves down.
Okay.
We can tell you're really angry, but this seems stupid, whatever you're doing.
Now, contrast these purple-haired libtards with the Mexican cartels.
The cartels are a legit threat to the security of America.
Like the cartels are they do not mess around.
Those guys are serious warriors.
Whatever you I'm not agreeing with what they do.
Just just to be clear, I'm simply describing their capabilities as.
They are some badass fighters.
They really are.
They're dedicated to their mission and their profit, and they're ruthless.
And they tend to be quite adept at firearms and The contrast here is really hilarious.
And I think what would be...
Truly amazing and definitely live stream worthy would be a scenario where these two groups meet each other and we would just call it like libtards versus cartels.
And it'd be like a Super Bowl, like a Super Bowl slaughter, I think, because the cartels would just wipe out the libtards.
And libtards would be like, what happened?
The cartels aren't messing around.
But the libtards don't know what they're doing.
You know, you can imagine if they meet just by coincidence, like they're both trying to blow up the same, you know, railroad track or something.
The libtards get there first.
They're like, we're going to derail the train by putting, you know, like a piece of metal on the tracks, you know, and the cartels show up.
Let us show you how to really blow up the train.
We're going to show you really how to do this.
Step inside, Gringles.
We're going to show you how to really blow up this train.
Por ejemplo, tenemos una maleta de explosivos.
We're going to show you.
You might want to step back, gringos.
You guys, you know, I'm just having fun with this.
But the cartels are going to have, like, real weapons, you know, while the libtards are going to be doing their just almost, like, annoyance-level make-believe stuff.
While holding signs about how victimized they are.
But the narcos, the cartels, they're not messing around.
They're going to bring explosives.
They got them.
So what I'm trying to say here overall, on a serious note, I know I tend to joke around on this stuff, but the U.S. military is going to have its hands full with the narcos across the border, but U.S. law enforcement...
It's going to be dealing with a lot of cartel activity in the United States.
That's no joke, and that's a real safety issue.
I mean, that's a threat to U.S. security right there.
You are going to see some targets hit, some infrastructure targets.
And if leftists try to exploit this opportunity to launch their own French Revolution, that's going to last about...
Two seconds before every gun owner in America defends the republic and every law enforcement officer just ends the French Revolution.
Like, the French Revolution in America, like I said, it lasts about two seconds.
Like, good luck with your guillotines.
You know, that didn't last long.
And I'll tell you what, I mean, I know a lot of law enforcement.
Obviously, I know a lot of special forces are trained with special forces, and I maintain strong contacts with law enforcement.
I was just recently told by law enforcement in Texas that, yes, they have begun turning over illegals, emptying them out of various county jails across the state, and turning them over to ICE. That has begun.
And I promised that would begin, and it has.
It's underway.
That's great news.
I can also promise you that law enforcement in Texas, they have been waiting for this moment to be given the green light to protect their country and to protect the state of Texas and to protect their counties and their neighborhoods and their infrastructure.
Nobody is going to take any crap from cartels, from libtard protesters, from terrorists, from anybody.
Nobody in law enforcement is going to sit back and take any crap.
Those days are done.
Well, maybe in the liberal cities they will.
I don't know about that.
But I'm talking about real America, okay?
In the red states, in the red counties, in the red cities, those that do exist, law enforcement's not taking any crap.
Trump's not taking any crap.
Tom Holman is not taking crap.
Hegseth, not either.
Pam Bondi at DOJ. She's not taking crap.
She's already proven that.
She's going after the criminals.
So this is going to be a very sad day for any leftists that try to stage some kind of an armed revolt.
And again, I half-jokingly say, oh, I hope they try it.
But I don't really mean that because I don't want to see any violence.
But it sure would be amusing if they tried something because they would be just defeated and dismantled.
So quickly, it would almost be historic to see them try.
I mean, I don't know how else to put that, but I can assure you, they are no threat to Trump's America.
No threat at all.
The cartels are a different story.
And they're going to extract a cost.
No question about it.
So please, folks, please support Your local law enforcement when they are constitutional sheriffs and pro-America people.
And I am interviewing Sheriff Mack coming up here shortly, by the way.
So that'll be a great interview.
But support local law enforcement.
And one way that you can do that is by also defending your own property.
Like, be ready to help defend yourself.
And maybe help defend your community if it comes to that.
I mean, maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe some leftist group organizes, I don't know, 5,000 person marching military.
Okay, and they head for some town in West Texas or something.
Well, 5,000 people?
You know, it's going to take some effort to dispatch them all.
Not a lot of effort, but some effort.
I mean, it's just going to take...
It's just going to take a few thousand Texans is all it's going to take.
But somebody, you do need to be ready.
You need to help support law enforcement.
And I'm not saying don't go out and be a vigilante.
Don't initiate violence.
I'm not saying that at all.
I'm saying support law enforcement, but also defend your property.
Defend your person, your family, your property.
You have every right to do so.
If there were to be some kind of an attempted invasion of your community, maybe by cartels or maybe by radical leftists who think they're running a revolution, you know, every citizen who can defend their property is effectively helping law enforcement and helping the military.
If you can at your property, again, I'm not saying go out and do anything, but at your property, if you put up a fight against these invaders or these terrorists, if you put up a fight, take some of them out.
I mean, you slow them down.
Interdiction counts.
That gives law enforcement time to get there or gives the military time to get there.
I mean, no joke.
If we end up in a civil war type of scenario, every armed citizen counts.
I would just say be responsible.
Get good training, safety training.
Don't go out.
Don't initiate violence.
Don't pretend to be...
Part of the military, if you're not, if you haven't trained with, you know, if you're not part of a unit, don't try to fight with the unit, because it doesn't work that way.
They will tell you to go home.
Same thing with cops.
If you haven't trained with the cops, you don't know their procedures, you don't have their radio comms, you don't know, just, like, get out of their way.
Seriously, get out of their way, go home, and defend your home if it comes to that.
Otherwise, let them do their jobs.
And frankly, if you really want to help a bunch of National Guard troops that are in your area, if you really want to help, you know what you do?
You cook them a nice big steaming hot bowl of beef chili, man, and you bring them chili for dinner.
These guys need good food.
Or in my case, I would bring them smoothies.
Show up with blenders and avocados and bananas like, smoothie time!
For everybody that was in combat today, you're going to need to replenish health rangers here with nutrition for warriors.
You know what I mean?
Like, you want to help them?
Feed them.
Seriously.
Everybody who's ever been to war will tell you that.
They're always needing better food and usually more food.
So, you want to help them?
That's what we can do.
That's what I would do.
I'm not rolling in with guns.
I'm rolling in with blenders and smoothies, man.
It's like, I'm going to support the nutrition.
Of these guys, they're going to need it.
And in case anybody's confused, like, why am I so frustrated with federal agency workers, but I totally support local law enforcement and soldiers and veterans and local government?
Like, how does that work?
Well, the answer is actually very simple.
Yes, I support local government.
I support local law enforcement.
We have to have cops.
You know what happens if you don't have cops?
Your whole system breaks down.
It's not pretty.
But I also recognize that these federal agencies have become terrorist organizations.
The FDA, the IRS, the DEA, the ATF, the FBI, whatever.
They function as terrorist organizations.
They targeted the American people.
They weaponized their power.
Against the American people.
And I would always speak out against that, even if that happened at a local level, like if there were corrupt cops.
Well, that's never happened in New York or Chicago, has it?
Or LA? Has that ever?
No, that's never happened.
But if there were corrupt cops, I would speak out against them too.
But if they serve the community, I support them.
You see what I'm saying?
I wholeheartedly support them.
And we do need a local, we need local civilian, you know.
Police.
Civil society police.
If we don't have them, you won't want to live there.
Alright, so we've got some cool stuff.
We're going to jump into the Bright Learn book videos.
First one I have for you is called Phenomena by Annie Jacobson.
It's the secret history of the U.S. government's investigations into extrasensory perception and psychokinesis.
And psychokinesis is, of course, moving physical objects with your mind.
Now, I mentioned yesterday I have a superpower, and it's a completely useless superpower that I've been burdened with.
I wasn't bitten by a spider, and I can't shoot webs out of my wrists, but I have a super sense of smell.
I can smell everything.
I have an ultra-sensitive nose, which is a curse in a society where everybody wears detergent all the time.
I wish instead I had psychokinesis.
I would trade super smells, super smelling superhero skills for psychokinesis.
I'd rather not smell your detergent and instead be able to lift you into the air with my mind.
That would be way cooler.
Like Luke Skywalker.
Use the Force.
Unfortunately, I don't have that superhero skill, mutant skill, whatever.
But the military thinks that that exists.
Maybe it does.
They certainly investigated it.
I mean, the U.S. government, DARPA programs, and so on.
That's what this book is all about, including remote viewing, too, which is another interesting skill.
A lot of people claim to be able to engage in remote viewing, even across time, not just space, but time.
I don't know.
I don't have that skill.
I can smell people across space and time.
Does that count?
I have remote smelling.
Is that a skill?
That should be considered a psychic phenomenon.
I have remote smelling capability.
So the military, you can hire me.
I can tell you what it smells like in any target zone that you intend to attack.
How's that?
And I'll give you that for free.
If you want to take advantage of my remote smelling superpower, just contact me and let me know.
In the meantime, here's a video on the book by Annie Jacobson.
And if you go to the description of this video on brightlearn.ai, we have a link to her book to help support the author and her publisher and so on.
Please consider purchasing her book if you enjoy this.
Here we go.
Today we're taking a look at Annie Jacobson's groundbreaking research into the U.S. government's decades-long obsession with extrasensory perception, or ESP, and psychokinesis, or PK, as laid out in her book Phenomena, the secret history of the U.S. government's investigations the secret history of the U.S. government's investigations into extrasensory perception and psychokinesis.
Our story begins in the aftermath of World War II, a time when the world was gripped by the fear of nuclear war and the dawn of the Cold War.
The U.S. government, always on the lookout for any edge against the Soviet Union, began to explore some truly unconventional avenues.
Among them was the idea that the human mind might possess abilities far beyond what science could explain, abilities that could be harnessed for military and intelligence purposes.
In 1972, this exploration took a dramatic turn when the CIA approached a small group of promising young scientists at the Stanford Research Institute, or SRI. The agency challenged them to answer a simple yet profound question.
Could extrasensory perception and psychokinesis be proven to exist in a laboratory setting?
And if so, how could these abilities be weaponized in the fight against the Soviets?
The results were nothing short of astonishing.
By 1975, the CIA had concluded that there was indeed a large body of reliable experimental evidence pointing to the existence of ESP. This conclusion sent shockwaves through the military and intelligence communities.
Suddenly, everyone wanted in on the action.
The Navy, the Air Force, the Army, the Coast Guard, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, and even the Joint Chiefs of Staff all began to take a keen interest in these phenomena.
But why?
What was it about these seemingly supernatural abilities that captured the imagination of the U.S. government?
To understand this, we need to look back to World War II. The Nazis, it turned out, were deeply invested in the occult.
Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS, was particularly fascinated by astrology, runes, and ancient Germanic magic.
He even created a vast science academy called the Ahnenerbe.
Which conducted research into mystical and supernatural phenomena.
The Allies captured the Annanerbe's work at the end of the war, and its secrets soon became part of the burgeoning psychic arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union.
But it wasn't just the Nazis who were interested in the supernatural.
In the United States, a British astrologer named Louis de Waal was recruited by British intelligence to influence American public opinion.
De Waal, hailed as the modern Nostradamus, used his syndicated astrology column to spread propaganda and sway public opinion in favor of the Allied cause.
His success demonstrated the potential power of belief and the manipulation of the supernatural for political purposes.
As the Cold War intensified, the U.S. government began to explore the potential of ESP and PK as tools for intelligence gathering and psychological warfare.
The CIA's experiments at SRI were just the beginning.
The Navy, for example, was interested in using ESP as a backup means of communication in the event of a nuclear strike.
The idea was that telepathy might be able to penetrate the depths of the ocean where traditional radio signals could not reach.
Meanwhile, the Army was conducting its own experiments.
Including one that involved using psychics to locate hidden enemy tunnels during the Vietnam War.
The man in charge of this classified project was Louis J. Matasia, a former Army topographical surveyor and a practicing dowser.
Matasia taught Marines how to use divining rods to locate Viet Cong tunnels, and while the results were mixed, the project highlighted the military's willingness to explore unconventional methods.
But perhaps the most intriguing figure in this story is Andrija Puharic, a neurobiologist and inventor who became deeply involved in government-sponsored psychic research.
Puharic was a man of extraordinary charisma and ambition, and he believed that he had discovered a mysterious energy force that powered extrasensory perception.
His work caught the attention of the U.S. government, and he was soon recruited to conduct experiments on behalf of the CIA and the army.
Puharich's research took him to some strange and dangerous places.
He experimented with hallucinogenic mushrooms, believing they could enhance psychic abilities.
He worked with a Dutch sculptor named Harry Stump, who claimed to channel ancient Egyptian entities.
And he became obsessed with a young Israeli psychic named Yuri Geller who would go on to become one of the most famous psychics in the world.
Geller's abilities were nothing short of astounding.
He could bend spoons with his mind, read thoughts, and even predict the future.
His performances captivated audiences around the world and he soon caught the attention of the CIA. The agency recruited Geller to undergo a series of tests at SRI, where he was subjected to some of the most rigorous scientific scrutiny ever applied to a psychic.
The results were impressive.
Geller consistently demonstrated his abilities under controlled conditions, and the CIA was convinced that he was the real deal.
But not everyone was convinced.
Skeptics, including the magician James Randi, accused Geller of being a fraud and a charlatan.
The debate over Geller's abilities raged on, and it continues to this day.
But the story doesn't end there.
As the psychic research program at SRI gained momentum, the CIA began to explore even more controversial avenues.
They experimented with mind control, using drugs like LSD and hypnosis in an attempt to manipulate human behavior.
They investigated the potential of psychotronic weapons which were said to use electromagnetic waves to disrupt the human mind and body.
The Soviet Union, too, was deeply invested in psychic research.
The KGB and the Soviet military conducted their own experiments.
And they were rumored to have developed psychotronic weapons capable of causing serious harm.
The U.S. government was alarmed by these developments, and they stepped up their own research efforts in response.
The psychic arms race reached its peak in the 1970s and 1980s, but by the mid-1990s, the U.S. government's interest in psychic phenomena began to wane.
The end of the Cold War and the rise of new technologies, like satellite surveillance and cyber warfare, made the idea of psychic spies seem increasingly outdated.
In 1995, the CIA officially shut down its psychic research program, and the era of government-sponsored psychic espionage came to an end.
But the legacy of these programs lives on.
Today, the U.S. military and intelligence communities are once again exploring the potential of anomalous mental phenomena, albeit under a different guise.
The concept of sensemaking, or the ability to understand and anticipate events, has become a key focus of defense research.
And the idea of using technology to enhance human perception and cognition is gaining traction.
So, what does the future hold?
Will modern technology finally unlock the secrets of the human mind?
Or will the mysteries of ESP and PK remain unsolved, like Nietzsche's eternal return?
Only time will tell.
Thank you for joining me on this journey into the world of psychic espionage.

Today we're taking a journey through the pages of a book that's shaking up the way we think about power, control, and the very fabric of American society.
The book is The Power to Control, How the Elite Conspire Against You by Tom Paine, and it's the first in the Deconstructing America series.
So grab your notebooks.
Because we're about to peel back the curtain on some of the most intriguing and unsettling revelations about the world we live in.
Let's start with a bold claim.
Throughout history, a tiny fraction of people, less than 1%, have held the reins of power, while the rest of us have been left to navigate the systems they've created.
Paine argues that this isn't a coincidence or a byproduct of any particular system.
It's a deliberate strategy that transcends time, geography, and political ideology.
Whether we're talking about monarchs, dictators, or the modern-day billionaire class, the goal remains the same—control.
Paine takes us back 10,000 years to the dawn of agriculture, when the concept of private land ownership first emerged.
This, he says, was the beginning of real inequality.
Families who owned land— Could accumulate wealth and pass it down, creating dynasties that wielded not just economic power but political power as well.
This concentration of wealth and power, he argues, has only intensified over time, leading to the world we see today.
But here's where things get interesting.
Paine challenges the narrative that the American Revolution was a fight for freedom and equality.
Instead, he paints it as a strategic move by a group of wealthy elites who wanted to break free from British control to better serve their own interests.
The Founding Fathers, he suggests, weren't just visionary leaders.
They were savvy businessmen who saw an opportunity to consolidate power and wealth.
So how did they do it?
Paine delves into the tactics used by these elites to rally support from the masses.
The Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, he argues, were masterstrokes of propaganda.
They were crafted to appeal to the ideals of freedom and equality, but in reality they served to legitimize a new ruling class.
These documents, he points out, were written by and for a select group of white male landowners, excluding women, slaves, and the poor.
Payne doesn't stop there.
He argues that the American Revolution was not a popular uprising.
But rather a carefully orchestrated coup by wealthy elites who used propaganda to manipulate public opinion.
They convinced the masses that they were fighting for a noble cause, when in reality they were simply swapping one set of rulers for another.
But how do the elites maintain their grip on power?
Paine outlines a multi-pronged approach that includes indoctrination, conditioning, and the strategic use of fear.
He argues that our education system, media, and even our language are all tools used to shape our perceptions and keep us in line.
Take education, for example.
Paine suggests that our schools are not designed to create critical thinkers, but rather obedient workers.
From a young age we're taught to memorize facts, follow rules, and compete with each other, rather than question authority or challenge the status quo.
This indoctrination, he says, is reinforced by the media, which serves as a mouthpiece for the elite, promoting narratives that serve their interests.
And let's not forget about fear.
Paine argues that fear is a powerful tool used to control the masses, whether it's the fear of terrorism, economic collapse, or social unrest.
These threats are often exaggerated or manufactured to keep us compliant.
The elites, he says, use fear to justify increased surveillance, military spending, and the erosion of civil liberties.
Perhaps the most unsettling part of Paine's argument is his assertion that we don't live in a true democracy.
He claims that the United States is more accurately described as a plutocracy, a government run by the wealthy for the wealthy.
He points to the influence of corporate lobbyists, the revolving door between government and big business, and the lack of genuine representation for the average citizen.
Paine argues that the two-party system is a facade, designed to give us the illusion of choice.
In reality, he says, both parties are beholden to the same corporate interests, and the policies they enact reflect this.
The real decisions, he argues, are made behind closed doors by a small group of elites who prioritize their own wealth and power over the needs of the people.
Paine introduces the concept of the corporate state, a system where corporations wield immense power and influence over government and society.
He argues that corporations have become the new monarchs, dictating policy, shaping public opinion, and controlling the flow of information.
In conclusion, the power to control is a wake-up call to all of us.
It challenges us to question the narratives we've been fed, to look beyond the surface, and to recognize the mechanisms of control that shape our world.
Paine's message is clear.
If we want to live in a truly free and just society, we must first understand the forces that seek to manipulate and control us.
Thank you for joining me on this journey through the power to control.

Do not feel sorry for these federal workers.
You know, 60 Minutes is trying to roll them out with all these sob stories.
They try to pick a couple of ex-federal workers with sob stories.
Oh, we don't know where our next paycheck is coming from.
Welcome to the real world, you tyrants.
And these people turn out to be some of the worst people of all when you actually look into their backgrounds and what they did.
They got...
Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians killed in a war with Russia.
They were trying to overthrow Russia effectively.
Now they claim to be the victim.
Do not feel sorry for any of these ex-federal workers.
Don't feel sorry at all.
Oh, they're going to lose their homes.
Yeah, well, they bought their homes, their luxury homes, they were living in it, by stealing from you and stealing from all of us.
They stole money through USAID and slush fund money and illicit treasury payments.
These people...
We're living in luxury homes, driving luxury cars, living a luxury lifestyle, having a luxury pension, no worries in the world financially because they are criminals, because they stole from you.
And they did not stand up for freedom of speech when you were being censored, did they?
They did not stand up for the rule of law when lawfare was being weaponized against Trump or Alex Jones or the independent media.
These people stood for nothing but their own power, their own money, their own corruption.
And believe me, if Kamala had won the election, these are the same people that would be calling right now for you and I to be thrown in jail for life.
To be silenced and imprisoned forever.
Because these are evil people.
And now they're claiming to be victims.
No, they're not victims.
Throw them out on the street.
Take the money back that they stole.
Take their homes back.
Bankrupt them.
Make them have to actually earn a living for a change instead of just lying and stealing for their lifestyle.
There is nothing good that these people have done for America.
In fact, they have been enemies of America.
Many of them have committed treason against America.
Many of them in the FDA, for example, went along with the COVID jabs, a depopulation.
Bioweapon extermination agenda.
They went along with it.
So did people at the CDC. And they suppressed ivermectin.
They suppressed vitamin C and zinc and vitamin D and the things that worked.
They suppressed those things.
Their actions resulted in people being harmed and killed.
These people are complicit in homicide or at least, at the very least, manslaughter.
They're the ones who set the hospital protocols.
Hospital homicide.
Murder by ventilation.
That's what they did.
These are not good people.
Don't shed a tear for these people.
In fact, thank God and thank Trump and thank Elon here at the moment because they're doing such great work exposing all of this.
If this had not been exposed, the scam would have continued.
This would have gone on for another generation because it's been going on for a generation.
These scams have been in place since really probably the Clinton administration.
They just got worse under Bush, and then Obama got worse under Biden, a lot worse then.
I mean, Trump, his first term probably put a pause on some of this, but didn't really uncover all of it.
Now it's being uncovered.
It is decades of corruption and fraud.
That's what's being uncovered.
And if a lot of people don't go to jail over this, I'm going to be very unhappy.
Think about it.
Every day that you worked an honest job, and in that, by the way, I include, like, if you work for the county government, you know, you're doing local stuff, you're probably important to the local community.
I'm talking about the federal workers here.
I'm not talking about local government.
There is obviously some need for people to decide, like, which bridges get repaired and things like that.
I get it.
And infrastructure, you know.
Sewage treatment plants and what have you.
I get that.
And police and fire.
I'm all in favor of that.
I'm talking about these federal tyrants that didn't do anything good for this country.
But think about it.
Those of you who work an honest job, whatever that is, you know, you're an airline pilot, you're a truck driver, you're an HVAC expert.
You've been putting in hard work.
You've been putting it all on the line.
And they steal out of your paycheck every time.
They steal your money by printing money.
So your dollar becomes worth less and less.
You struggle for groceries.
You struggle to pay insurance costs.
You struggle with the supply chain problems.
And why are you struggling?
Because these people in D.C. have been stealing from you.
They've been stealing your money, your productivity, the value of your currency.
They have been stealing while they have been silencing you.
While they have been Inflicting lawfare against you.
They have been punishing you while functioning as parasites.
And that's the right word for these federal workers.
They are parasites on our society.
They're parasites.
And they have also the moral equivalent of intestinal worms.
And we need to shit them out like intestinal worms.
Because they're not worth any more than intestinal worms.
That's what these people are.
Like, if you look in a toilet and it's filled with, like, tapeworms, like, yeah, those are IRS workers in there.
Flush it.
Flush it down quickly.
Those are FDA people.
You know, tapeworms.
Flush them down.
Never feel sorry for these people.
They are the worst people imaginable in our world today, and they would never have mercy on you.
And that's evident by the way they treated all of us.
Look at the weaponization of the DEA, the ATF, the EPA, the IRS, the FDA, the CDC, the NIH, the NIAID, the USDA, etc.
Why does the EPA have teams with freaking firearms?
Run around raiding people's homes at 4 o'clock in the morning, breaking in their doors with guns drawn.
The EPA? Are you kidding me?
The Environmental Protection Agency has freaking hit teams?
Yeah, so does the IRS. So does the FDA. It's out of control.
It's got to stop.
Reel it all in.
Take back their power.
Slash those agencies by 90%.
Cut those people off.
Take the money back that they stole.
Take their homes.
Take their bank accounts.
Shove them out onto the streets where they belong.
And hope that the rains come to flush those tapeworms into the storm drains of history.
Because that's where they belong.
These are not Americans.
These are not good people.
These are not people that ever even pretended to act in good faith.
They are power-hungry, dishonest, unethical tyrants who all supported Obama.
They supported Kamala.
They supported censorship.
They supported higher taxes.
They supported higher regulation.
They destroyed much of this country.
And now we're having to fight.
To try to bring it back and build it back because of all the damage they did.
And yes, they paid money to themselves and every single one of them that paid money to themselves, illicit funds, I hope they spend life in prison.
That's what needs to happen to these people.
And I'm sure that a lot of people listening to this are probably cheering.
I don't think anybody listening to this is saying you're being too harsh.
No.
People are saying, hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
Because I see it all over Twitter.
Everybody that's paying attention agrees with me on these points.
You may not use the same words I use, like tapeworms, although I think that really is the most appropriate term.
But you agree with the principles of what I'm saying.
It's time to take our country back.
And it's time to take the decisive action that is necessary.
To shut down these criminals, lock them up, prosecute them, and end their grift and their theft and their looting.
It's time to do it now.
It's now or never, folks.
So thank you for listening.

Welcome to today's episode of Decentralized TV here on Brighttown.com.
the free speech video platform.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighteon.com, and we've got a brand new guest for you today.
I think an extraordinary man joining us from, I believe, the United Kingdom.
We'll confirm that.
And Todd is my co-host.
And Todd, welcome to the show.
This is always my favorite show of the week.
Thank you, Mike.
It is great to be here.
I always miss you.
And, man, you are so prolific.
I've been following along everything, and there's been so much to cover.
I mean, this first two weeks of the Trump administration is just, you know, and so I am all about, you know, decentralized learning here because it's...
The thing that the Trump administration is uncovering, and with Doge and Elon Musk, is the corruption and fraud that naturally emerges from centralization of power.
So we're seeing the USAID organization, all this massive money laundering, paying off, sending money to the left-wing media, Politico, Reuters, Associated Press, New York Times.
Now, I saw Jennifer Zung put out details.
The New York Times received, I think she said, $58 million from the government to just push propaganda and lies, right?
So centralization leads to corruption.
Hey, Mike, what do you think?
I'm just speculating here.
What do you think the price tag was with Drudge Report?
Because they used to be so conservative and like on a dime, they flipped to be libtards.
Well, that's because Matt Drudge.
He knew that all this was coming like 10 years ago, and he was threatened.
I mean, he went on with Alex Jones and explained all this.
Although he was filmed in Shadow during that appearance.
But he said, they're coming for us all, and he decided to sell the platform and get out.
The rest of us just decided to endure the decade of censorship, which is what we have done.
And we built our own platforms, right?
And we advocated for decentralization.
And we've advocated for crypto, which is decentralized money.
And now we're advocating for decentralized open source AI models, like what we're releasing, which is decentralized knowledge.
And I might add, we have another leg to the stool, which is decentralized nothing.
And by nothing, I mean government.
I think that we should have it be decentralized nothing.
I don't want it anymore, Mike.
Well, yeah, I mean...
To dismantle it is to decentralize it, because that'll send power back to the States and everything.
But let's get to our guest.
His name is Crypto Rich, and his ex-account is Crypto Rich YT. And here he is, Crypto Rich YT. And Crypto Rich, I believe he lives in the UK, and he's an advocate of decentralization across many realms, but also an advocate of human rights and the divinity of humans, no matter where they live or who they are.
So welcome.
Crypto Rich, welcome to the show today.
It's great to have you on.
Mike, thank you so much.
Thank you so much for having me on.
It's such a privilege and an honor.
And also, Todd, thank you for coming on my channel a couple of weeks ago and then arranging it, making it possible for me to come on this.
Well, you're welcome.
As I'll share with everybody, we had our own after party, Mike.
Oh, yeah.
And what he said in the after party just cemented in my mind that I had to swiftly, you know, reach out to you to get him on.
Oh, that's cool.
Well, I'm so grateful that you're taking the time to join us now.
First of all, some background.
Did I get it right?
You're out of the UK, is that right?
Yes, I'm in the UK. I live in the UK. Okay, great.
And you, I mean, tell us a little bit about your background and your journey of what brought you to this point of...
Of really being an advocate of decentralization?
I suppose the first decentralized thing I ever did was to make sure my children never went to nursery or kindergarten or junior school or high school.
My son's 20 years old now.
My daughter's 17. They've never been in a school or nursery or anything like that.
We unschooled them.
That's great.
I was the only one in my community who did that.
There was nobody else doing that.
So I suppose that was the first thing that, you know, the government isn't going to get to educate my children.
I am.
My wife is.
So that was that.
I work as a child protection social worker, and at some point I stumbled upon this thing called Bitcoin.
And I think both of you have heard about that on occasion.
Possibly.
I got a bit curious about it.
There wasn't much information.
I bought some.
Didn't know much about it.
No more than we could afford to lose.
And then a few years later, I was like, oh, this is interesting.
This is interesting.
And then around about 2017, I started a YouTube channel because I thought, look, I'm a social worker.
I don't know about programming or IT or finance or anything.
So this was one way that I could get into decentralized money.
And I've been running my channel on YouTube.
Ever since, I got shadow banned in June 2019 when YouTube deleted 160 of my videos.
Oh, wow.
That's right.
And then there was all crypto and fairly innocuous stuff like, how do you use this hardware wallet?
This is what the Bitcoin price is going to do.
Or I'm interviewing this guy about their project.
Really innocuous stuff.
And then I started doing more political stuff when the Brexit referendum came about.
And I voted for Brexit because I... Like you, Mike and Todd, I believe in this old-fashioned notion of sovereignty and decentralization as well, you know, decisions made at the lowest level possible.
Yes.
And then when lockdown came, I got even more political.
And I have to confess, for the first six weeks, I did wear a mask when I went out.
I did socially distance.
But at some point, I was like, why am I just going along with this and not digging into it?
So that was the end of the masks.
Socially distancing.
And I never had those toxic injections.
And I'm proud to say neither did my wife or my sister or my son or my daughter, you know, in the household that we live in.
Outstanding.
Wonderful to hear that from you because at least my perception, Todd, maybe you agree with me on this, but from my perception as an American, the European leaders have lost their freaking minds.
They are the worst authoritarians, the worst tyrants.
I mean from Macron and Schultz and now Starmer in the UK.
I mean that guy is a freaking – Mike, forgive me for interrupting you.
It's Keir Stalin.
I thought it was Starmer for some reason.
Gosh, I missed the three weeks that Liz Truss was in charge.
But what is wrong?
What has happened to the European leaders?
They've lost their freaking minds.
I think they've all been captured by the WEF. And I think in the background, the more and more I dig into this, and credit to Tom Luongo and Alex Crane, who are regular guests on my channel.
Oh, I love Luongo and Crane.
They're amazing.
I do videos with them.
My favorite videos are the videos we must do.
And then Richard Poe's book, How the British Invented Communism and Blamed It on the Jews.
This is a great history book for people like me who don't like history.
But in the background, more and more I'm coming around to the idea that in the background, what we have are remnants of the British Empire pulling the strings.
Yes, that's true.
Israel was a British colonial project.
Zionism was a British colonial project.
They use Zionism to keep the U.S. in check.
And everybody thinks it's the U.S. But when Britain left, gave its colonies nominal independence, all they did was go hide in the shadows.
Right, right.
It's similar to what I deal with as a child protection social worker.
So, you know, one of the models that I use for my political analysis is fractals.
Human being behavior occurs at all scales.
And you take someone...
Who's in an abusive household, usually a guy, beating up on the woman, and then the woman says no, and then the guy gets out of the house, he still attempts to exert control over what goes on in that household.
So we have the same thing playing out where the British aren't directly colonizing India and Pakistan and Canada and the US, but they're doing it from behind the shadows, still exerting control.
Where the CIA and Mossad have been trained by MI6. I think the JFK files will show that who was behind it was CIA, Mossad, and underneath MI6. Russiagate was an MI6 operation.
Yes, that's right.
That's what I think is going on.
And the WEF, Klaus Schwab, was appointed by Kissinger, who was an agent of the British.
Oh boy.
Kissinger.
Okay.
But what I want to mention here is that Tom Luongo even talks about how right now the Trump administration appears to be trying to sever its ties with British Empire rule.
And look at what's happening with gold flows right now out of the London Metals Exchange.
Can't deliver on the gold.
I mean, they're eight weeks out on gold.
I mean, there is a possibility that they may default on gold deliveries.
You want to talk about...
Taking down the London-based power center, make them default on their gold deliveries.
You know?
What are you thinking, Crypto Rich?
Well, I think the biggest earner for the UK is the City of London.
That's where we take most of our money from.
And most of the money comes from insurance, shipping insurance, which, thanks to the Russian sanctions, isn't going to be making the money, isn't making the money that it used to make for the City of London.
And then the other one is from the foreign exchange markets.
And in particular, in the city of London, they can rehypothecate gold infinitely.
And for people who don't know what that means, it means that the city of LBMA, they got a kilo of gold.
They can sell certificates of ownership to that gold as many times as they like.
And that's what they've been doing.
That's why they're getting caught with their pants down.
Okay, Tom.
Trump and the Federal Reserve.
Whoever, right?
The sovereigns in the US are saying, listen, we want delivery of that gold.
We don't want cash.
We want delivery.
And the city of London is...
It looks really...
It's going to be really, really bad for us in the UK. It's really, really bad.
Well, I mean, a lot of frauds are getting exposed.
Actually, we're going through chaos in the US in a way.
But, Todd, I'm loving every minute of this, aren't you?
Yeah.
Well, the only part I'm not loving is he...
Did bring up Henry Kissinger, and I can't get the smell of sulfur out of my nose.
I don't know.
Oh my goodness, yeah.
But hey, Rich, before I ask you any questions, and thank you for having me on your show and folks who want to go to your...
X account, which is at CryptoRichYT.
You can scroll down a little bit and get a link to the show.
And I think it was a very good show.
We had great conversations related to crypto and private crypto.
Oh, here it is.
No, I'm sorry.
Show my screen to my producer.
Sorry, Todd.
Go ahead.
You bet.
You bet.
And I want to share that...
Mike and I, we love doers, those who don't just talk but act.
And I'm just informing our viewers here, Mike, that Rich is such a person and that'll become self-evident.
You know, I like to tee up a question.
So, okay.
Rich, you've been covering crypto for years and recently interviewed me, as I mentioned, to discuss...
Real-world use cases related to using privacy crypto coins to exchange value privately.
Now, while the interview was fantastic, it was your rant after we stopped recording that caught my attention.
And I'm not going to share with you what you mentioned.
Instead, allow me to incite a new rant from our viewers.
Are you ready?
Three, two, one, let's go.
Okay, Rich.
You believe it is the government's right and responsibility to raise taxes to facilitate war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity.
Do you not, Rich?
I couldn't tell you that ringed up any better.
There's the provocation.
That's all we need.
I'll be back in 30 minutes, guys.
Bring it, Rich!
I'm sorry, Todd.
I'm chuckling at the absurdity of your question.
And hell no!
Hell no!
In my opinion, which actually I say it's my opinion, but it's actually the truth that I hold dear.
The worst thing any government can do is the mass slaughter of other people's children.
I didn't tell you this, Todd.
My first son died after five weeks.
He was born with...
Brain damage.
We don't know why.
Full term.
It was a complete surprise to us.
And it was the worst that ever happened in my life.
I wouldn't want to wish that upon anyone.
And what calls me is how, you know, we have politicians and armchair, I don't know, like, patriot.
They call themselves patriotic, but they're brain dead, willing to send other people's children to die for their hubris.
Like in the UK, where the...
You know, the flag waving in the beginning of the Ukraine-Russia war.
People saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're going to...
You go and fight!
You go and send your kids.
Don't send other people's kids and you spend your money, not my money.
And there should be a law that any politician who votes for war is required to go to the front line themselves with their children and use it on their own expense.
Because the idea that the government can take some of my energy, my effort, my work, that I do as a social worker, or somebody might do as a shopkeeper, or a bus driver, or whatever it is, that the government should use that to slaughter others.
That's reprehensible.
Rich, can I interject something here?
I recently interviewed Colonel Douglas McGregor, who said that the number of Ukrainians killed In this conflict is over 1.2 million Ukrainians.
And that goes right back to Boris Johnson.
Just like you say, Rich, Boris Johnson flew to Ukraine, told Zelensky, don't have a peace agreement with Russia.
We'll support you.
NATO will support you.
We'll help you win.
That was Boris Johnson.
The deaths of 1.2 million men.
The wiping out of a generation of Ukrainians.
It's a kind of genocide.
It's not the only genocide that the UK is involved in, but it's one of them.
And you're right, Crypto Rich, that's on Boris Johnson and the political leaders in the UK that supported him.
Yeah, and it's not just that.
Britain has a long and ignoble history of causing genocide.
20 million in India, and they're not alone.
The Belgians, 6 million in Congo, right?
And it's just horrific.
And then, you know, the opportunity for decentralization, information sharing means that we can resist their call to war, their call to arms and hold them to account.
And what I would like to talk about is I'm actually involved in a lawful tax protest in the UK. Oh, wow.
We can lawfully withhold our taxes.
And I've done this.
I've interviewed people on my video who have used this method.
It works in the UK. It works in any country that is a signatory to international conventions against genocide or against the funding of terrorism.
Really?
No kidding.
Please, explain more.
Tell us how, because many of our listeners are in the UK, so tell us more.
And this, Mike, you're going to love this.
This is like a very simple strategy.
That, to me, when I first heard this and then I studied it further, I'm like, okay, you know, this all kinds of sounds virtuous, but how is this accomplished on this side of those sliding metal prison bars, Rich?
But you have figured a way to be able to lawfully do this through trusts.
Unpack that for us.
Yes, and it wasn't me who figured it out.
Credit goes to a guy called Chris Covedil, who has spent...
Over 50 days in prison because of his objection to war.
And after having done that, he says, I have to find another way of doing this.
This isn't working.
And through some research, what he discovered is that there are particular statutes that make it a criminal offence in the UK to give the local or central government any money, directly or indirectly, If any of that money is going to be used to facilitate or fund or support in any way genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and acts of terrorism.
Wow.
Now, here's how it works.
Over, I don't know, most nations in the world have signed the conventions against genocide or the conventions against the funding of terrorism.
The US hasn't signed the convention against genocide, but there is a law, I forget the name of a law, which actually...
Has sort of ratified the Convention Against Funding Terrorism.
Now, in the UK, as in the United States, as in the European Union, any revenue that is collected by central or local government goes into a consolidated fund.
And Mike and Todd, you know, we do this ourselves.
You know, my wife and I, our money, it comes in into one little fund.
And from there, it goes out, you know, pay the gas, electricity, pay for food, all of that stuff, petrol.
So the government does the same.
All the money goes in and then it goes out into different budgets, different departments, education, the roads.
About 2% officially goes towards facilitating defense, offense, slaughter, murder, all that.
We don't know how much is hidden away in the shadows and goes towards the operations of MI6 and MI5 and Lord knows what.
All the money, the local government tax, parking violations, speeding tickets, the BBC TV license, the value-added tax, sales tax that we have here, income tax, inheritance tax for the farmers that the government is now putting in place in order to destroy farming in the UK. Any and every fine, fee, tax, levy, all goes into the consolidated fund before it's dispersed.
Right, right.
So every tax, then, some portion of it is spent on genocide, is what you're saying?
Yes.
Yes.
Right, because it's all intermixed.
The statutes define what genocide is.
You know, because some people will say, oh, what's happening in Gaza wasn't a genocide.
What's happening in Ukraine wasn't a genocide.
No, the statutes define what a genocide is.
Parliament has decided the killing of one or more, well, I suppose two or more people.
That are united by race, nationality, ethnicity, or religion.
Well, there's Gaza right there, except multiplied by hundreds of thousands.
Yep, and Yemen.
That's genocide.
The British Navy dropping bombs on people in Yemen.
That's right.
Killing people, right?
And it's also terrorism, as also defined in those statutes.
So some of that money goes towards those activities.
There's a website.
I'm going to give you an easy-to-remember name.
bit.ly slash makewarhistory.
bit.ly slash makewarhistory.
Everybody involved in this website is a volunteer.
We give all the information away for free.
It's publicly available.
It'll take you to probityco.com.
But you just think bit.ly slash makewarhistory.
There it is.
Got it.
Make peace permanent.
What you can do, what people can do in the UK, is they download a trust form.
Now, trusts are older than the Magna Carta.
Trusts are very, very old forms of legal agreement, lawful agreement.
And they're embedded within British statute.
And what a trust is, is essentially it's an agreement that I set out a trust form which says that you can have these funds.
And you have to do A, B, C, D, and E. So I downloaded a trust form.
You can download the trust form.
And, I mean, this is what happened with me.
I don't even know if I should say this, but I did this.
I had a small capital gains tax bill to pay.
And I told the HMRC, this is how much it is.
And then I downloaded the trust form.
I filled in, it's very easy to fill in, four sections or whatever.
And then I sent a copy of the trust form to HMRC. I didn't send them the original.
I didn't send them any money.
And what the trust form essentially says is that HMRC, which is the tax revenue collection service in the UK, you can have this money provided you can demonstrate that you're not violating the International Criminal Court Act 2001 and the Terrorism Act 2000. Those statutes combined make it a criminal offence.
For me to enter into any arrangement, any sort of financial arrangement, where some of those proceeds are going to be used for genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and acts of terrorism.
And I gave them two months to demonstrate that they were acting compliant with statute.
That's all I was asking.
I just want to make sure that you're acting legally, and I'm acting legally, because I don't want to be done for committing genocide or being party to it or terrorism.
And I don't want to be funding it in any way.
Neither should you, because that's illegal.
They didn't demonstrate anything within the two months they sent me demands for payment.
Then I had a back and forth with them.
Nine months, back and forth, writing letters.
I think over nine exchanges we had.
Now, I'm a child protection social worker.
I'm used to the legal arena.
I was testing this out.
And I kept saying to them, look, Are you exempt from these provisions of these statutes?
Am I exempt?
That's all I'm asking.
They never answered the question.
They said to me, you can't not pay tax because of your personal beliefs.
And I said, I haven't mentioned my personal beliefs.
They'll be pretty easy to assume what they are, right?
I haven't talked about my personal beliefs.
I'm just talking about statute.
And then they said to me, they've all said, well, you have to pay your taxes lawfully.
Good.
I want to pay taxes that are lawfully due.
But look what these statutes say.
Right.
No, I love what you're saying.
It's like, I don't want you to come back and prosecute me for violating these statutes.
I love this.
Yeah, and I want to make sure you're not violating these statutes.
Right.
Like, I want to pay you the money.
Please.
I love to pay money to government, but I have to make sure that I'm not breaking the law in doing so.
That's your argument.
You're not breaking the law as well, because here's what statutes say.
And if people go to bit.ly slash make war history, or they go to my Odyssey channel, or my Rumble channel, I have videos on this where I go into this in detail, including several interviews with Chris Govardale.
Let's look at it this way, Mike.
You want to raise money for a prescribed organization.
And I have reasonable cause to believe.
That some of the money that I give you is going to be used, is going to be given to this prescribed organization.
So then I have reasonable cause to believe that this is going towards genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and terrorism.
I'm breaking the law.
And then if I don't report you to the police, I'm breaking the law again.
Please tell me you reported them to the police.
Okay.
I'll do that as a favour to you, Todd, but don't tell Mike.
And Mike, I'll do it to you as well.
Let's get a little conflict going here because that's what I'm all about.
So what was the conclusion of this?
There's another angle to it, right?
Let's say you have reasonable cause to believe that some of the money that you're collecting is going to be used for genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity.
You're breaking the law, Mike.
So the HMRC official that I'm dealing with is breaking the law.
And the International Criminal Court Act 2001, Section 78, says this act binds the Crown and applies to persons in the public service of the Crown and property held for the purpose of the public service of the Crown.
Wow.
As applies to other persons in property.
There's no exemptions for government.
There's no exemptions for ministers.
There's no exemptions for members of parliament.
There's no exemption for the prime minister.
And that's also in the ministerial handbook, that they are required to honor statute and international law.
Then the Terrorism Act, the Supreme Court in the UK ruled that its provisions apply to the activities, to the quasi military or military activities.
Oh, wow.
That's huge.
There's no way out.
Sorry, I interrupted you, Mike.
You were going to ask me something.
I'm just wondering how this was concluded.
Where is this now?
So, at no point did HMRC give me...
Any exemption to these clauses, they just evaded the question.
They never even referenced these statutes.
They said they went to their solicitor's office and their solicitor's office had said that I have to pay taxes that are lawfully due.
And I said, well, go and ask your solicitor's office about these these provisions, whether they apply or not.
And if they don't apply, give me a reference in case law or in statute that says that capital gains taxes is exempt.
They never did that.
Now, during the course of this process, they referred me to debt enforcement agencies, to two debt enforcement agencies.
And I wrote to them.
They contacted me.
I replied to them.
And I said, do you have a properly executed, fully legally compliant court order that allows you to make this claim against me if you don't go away?
Now, I know they don't because not only did HMRC not take me to court, they never threatened to take me to court.
It'd be like, if I send you a letter, look, send me some money, please.
It'd be like, why?
Why am I sending you money?
Oh, just send me some money, please.
Todd, Todd told me to write to you, Mike, to send me some money.
So could you do that?
Right, they're just hoping that you voluntarily comply.
Yeah.
Yeah, because people don't know and people get afraid.
Now, after about nine months, I got fed up with this.
I don't want to put an end to this, right?
Enough of this experiment.
They've got no exemptions.
Otherwise they'd have given it to me because that's the easiest thing in the world.
Here's the exemption.
This doesn't apply.
Okay, fine.
But also the trust law is valid.
And they hadn't met the terms of the trust, so I didn't have to pay them.
And that's in the recognition of Trust Acts 1987. You didn't have to pay them or you haven't paid them yet.
I mean, I'm just wondering.
Are they going to come knock at your door next year and the year after?
I presume probably, right?
I think before that, they will threaten to take me to court.
And they haven't done that.
What about just debanking you and confiscating assets?
What about that?
We're not there yet, thank God.
So we've got to get this in place quick, right?
I then sent them an affidavit.
An affidavit, for people who don't know, is a statement of fact.
And if unrebutted, it stands as truth in law.
So I sent them an affidavit.
In the affidavit, I said what the statutes say.
I said what had happened.
I detailed the correspondence that we'd had.
And I said, at no point have they provided me with any exemption to demonstrate that I and they are acting compliant with statutes.
And then I gave them 14 days to rebut the affidavit.
They replied to me in 14 days and they said, you have to pay taxes that are lawfully due.
They didn't rebut the affidavit.
They didn't mention those statutes.
They didn't provide any exemptions.
So then I sent them a notice of default, which said, you have failed to rebut my affidavit.
An unrebutted affidavit is truth in law.
It's a summary judgment.
Case closed.
I'm going to give you another seven days.
I'll give you another chance.
And I haven't heard from them.
That's it.
It's over.
And what I've demonstrated, in all my correspondence, I've said repeatedly, I am committed to acting lawfully and legally.
I want to pay taxes that are legally and lawfully due, but I just need to know that I'm compliant with these statutes and so are you.
That's all.
Rich, will this be step and repeat every year?
As we, every year, are quote-unquote on the hook, be able to pay taxes.
Do you have to just go through the same drill?
Same thing.
Now, Chris Covedo himself, he doesn't, you know, he's not working.
He's retired.
He has said that he's done this with his local government tax, which is called council tax, seven years in a row.
Every year, they sent him a bill.
Every year, he goes through the probity co-process.
Every year, they zero his account.
And then the next year they send him a new bill.
So they do zero his account.
Yeah.
It doesn't accumulate.
I think they're in a bind.
I think, you know, they're going to have to do something like taking the money from debanking and stuff.
And the government is working, putting steps in place to allow them to take money at will, except there are protections.
One of the things that people don't know.
In the UK is that we have a Bill of Rights.
And in some respects, our Bill of Rights is stronger than the US Bill of Rights because it has this perpetuity clause that it says the government cannot make any laws that are to the pejorative of the people and that these rights are for perpetuity.
But we're not taught about this bill.
It's not a law.
It's not an act.
It's not legislation.
It is a law.
It's not an act because it created Parliament.
It didn't come out of Parliament.
And that's the 1689 Bill of Rights.
It can't be repealed by Parliament because it's a constitutional act.
And lawyers and judges, they took it out of their syllabus in the early 70s.
So lawyers and judges don't know about it.
Hey, Mike, I have a sneaky suspicion that Rich's 17-year-old daughter could probably explain all of that to somebody.
She knows the law.
I guarantee it's homeschooled.
Homeschooled, yeah, probably so.
Well, that's amazing.
I mean, just as an American, to hear you cite something from 1689, like...
You know, we don't go back that far, right?
Because we're Americans.
We're like, nothing happened before 1776, whatever.
But this is an amazing discovery.
So, Crypto Rich, how, I mean, are other people, besides the man you mentioned, I mean, are other people learning about this and deploying it?
I'm doing loads of videos about this.
You know, as many as I can.
I'm tweeting about it.
This is why I wanted to come on your channel, because you've got a much larger audience than me.
You know, we just have to stop killing people.
What can be worse?
The injections were bad.
Slavery's bad.
But what can be worse than genocide?
Yeah.
And let's be clear, the UK government, along with the US government, those are the primary supporters of Israeli genocide that's happening, not just Gaza, but also Lebanon.
And also, you know, the attacks on Yemen and coming up potentially attacks on Iran.
I mean, Todd and I are completely opposed to any forms of genocide.
It's just unrestricted, you know, violence against doctors and women and children and food workers.
Food workers get missiles?
Come on!
It's insane!
And it doesn't lead to any lasting resolution.
Of course not.
It doesn't create peace.
You know, Todd and Mike, I assume you guys aren't Muslim, right?
So I appreciate your concern and your compassion for those suffering in the Middle East.
Christians are suffering in the Middle East.
That's right.
Non-Muslim Christians.
Jews are suffering in the Middle East.
Druze are suffering in the Middle East.
Oh, we all suffer.
We all suffer.
That's true.
And I'm even concerned about the slaughter of people in Ukraine and Russia.
I mean, you're going to go up against Russia?
How dumb are you?
No kidding.
You've got to go up against Russia.
I mean, seriously.
But actually, and then how evil are you that you send other people's children to go up against Russia?
Yeah.
Yeah.
No kidding.
Or that in the U.S., they say, oh, we're going to send 100 billion to Ukraine, but it's actually half of it goes to the U.S. weapons manufacturers.
That celebrate profits.
Oh, we're building 2,000-pound bombs to drop on, you know, hospitals.
And then another big portion of it goes into the pockets of the corrupt officials who vote for war.
It's a racket.
It's a racket of death and suffering.
Yeah, and it goes to the bioweapons productions.
It goes for our, you know, the injections were a DARPA project.
Notice they don't call them vaccines.
They were injections.
Right?
Set up by the Department of Defense.
It's all used to enslave us.
And it completely corrupts a society when it goes on a war footing.
Now, I want to go back to Probity Co., which is that on every other Monday, there is a Q&A session from 6 p.m.
UK time.
And I'm often on, as are the other volunteers within Probity Co., And we basically take people's questions and answers about this process to support them through it.
All of this is free.
All you've got to do is go to the website, sign up, and then you'll get sent a link to those calls.
And we're really just supporting each other.
And as far as we know, we don't know, as far as anybody who's used the property process and has been in touch with us, we don't know anybody who's been prosecuted by HMRC about withholding their tax.
Because they don't want to fund genocide and terrorism and stuff.
I interviewed a guy who owns two hairdressing salons.
And one of his salons, one of the staff team at one particular salon said, we want to do this.
So they created a trust form, the employees, which said, look, you can withhold our payroll tax and not pass it on to HMRC. He withheld their payroll tax, put it in trust.
He did the same with his corporation tax.
He did the same with the VAT. And come the end of this financial year, he went through the probity code process with HMRC. He owes them hundreds of thousands of pounds.
And he says, I haven't heard from them since February, because they're in a bind.
From my take on it, the law is so tight.
I love this.
What will happen is that those employees that went through this process, they will get their tax deductions returned to them as an end-of-year bonus.
Wow.
Wow.
Now, Todd, we need to find out if there's something in the USA that is similar.
I mean, I've actually made the same moral argument, that it is immoral.
I mean, I'm a Christian.
It is immoral as a Christian to hand money to a government that is engaged in genocide.
That is immoral.
And yet, I'm still doing it.
And it violates my code of ethics.
It violates my religion.
It violates humanity.
I want to stop doing that.
But I don't know how.
Uh Well, Todd, I mean, you've got a vehicle.
I just want to say that when all of this nonsense happened with COVID, I ended up with a three-count lawsuit against Costco.
And so I went through that entire affidavit process.
And as you were sharing all of this, I was thinking, this is brilliant.
I think this can work.
I mean, you're right, Mike.
We just have to be able to find the case law related to funding terrorism.
But it has to be worth a shot, you know?
I mean, so whoever's out there that is so compelled.
You know, please reach out.
I don't know how you want him to reach out, Mike, but somebody...
Rich, do you know anybody in the U.S. that's doing something similar?
I don't.
I can reach out to Chris Coverdale and see if he's willing to come on your channel.
He knows more about it.
I've learned from him.
I'm sure he'd be willing to because he wants to spread the word for this.
And, you know, we are all...
They're all kindred spirits to stop the murder of people.
Perhaps somebody smarter than me who can use AI would be able to use their AI, use an AI to find particular statutes that are relevant to their own country, whether it's the United States or Ireland or Germany.
Trust law is valid in, I think, there's an international convention on trusts.
And whichever countries have ratified that into domestic law, trusts are valid.
Plus any countries which have a common law basis, which would include the Five Eyes Nations and all the former British colonies, trusts are valid in the United States.
So you can use trusts in the U.S. I love this because you're not not paying your taxes.
You're paying them into a trust saying, hey, look.
I tell you what, it's important for me, and I presume it's important for you, that we don't want to be unlawful here, right?
So let's be smart and just make sure that you don't get in harm's way and I don't get in harm's way.
And the money's there.
I mean, I'd be happy to give it to you, but I don't want to violate law.
I just love that line of approach.
Todd, generally, that's completely accurate.
There's a couple of...
Changes, just to make it a bit more fine-tune it, right?
Once the money is paid in trust, once the trust has been set up, it's no longer mine.
I don't have it.
Right.
It's paid.
So coming after me is not good, because it's in trust, and you have to go by the conditions of the trust.
There's no way around it.
HMRC itself is a trust.
And it is bound by trust law.
But where that breaks down for me, and you just mentioned these wonderful ladies at this salon, we're going to get this back as a year-end bonus.
So that means what was in the trust came back out of the trust for their benefit.
So how does that math work?
That was the conditions of the trust.
So my trust was where I'm the settler.
I settle the amount in the trust to the trustee, which also happens to be me in this instance, but it can be somebody else.
The primary beneficiary is HMRC. They can have the funds provided they meet the conditions of the trust.
If they don't meet the conditions of the trust, it goes to the secondary beneficiary, which could be anybody.
It could be me.
So in that instance, with this hairdressing salon, Secondary beneficiaries of the trust is the employee that paid that in.
Oh, wow.
So if a court judge looks at the trust's language, the trust says we will give it over to the tax authorities if they meet the conditions which are reflected in British law.
Yeah.
That's brilliant.
Yeah.
A will is a type of a trust.
It's basically an agreement that says this is how this money...
This is what needs to be done in order for these funds to be released, these assets to be released.
These conditions need to be...
That makes sense.
Very powerful.
All right.
So, I mean, yeah, let's talk about some other things, though, as well, because we don't have a ton of time remaining here today.
And Crypto Rich, you've got a lot of knowledge and information about a lot of areas.
What else do you think people need to know about decentralizing their lives outside of taxation?
Right.
Okay.
So bit.ly slash make war history, just to get that in there.
bit.ly slash make war history.
I think the work that you do, Mike, in terms of people going off grid, being self-sustaining, having their own food supply, I think it's absolutely great getting into crypto, taking your kids out of school, get them out, get them out.
And I don't know, like, it's so insane in the UK. It's so insane.
October the 1st.
I don't know if you've mentioned this on your program, Mike, but if you don't register, if people don't register their backyard chickens on a government website with all sorts of details about name, address, how many chickens they got, the types of chickens, why they have them, and the geographical coordinates of where the chickens are located, by not doing that, somebody could face a £1,500 fine.
Or a six-month prison sentence?
I think we have covered that, and it's completely insane.
It's completely insane.
Six months from telling the government about your chickens.
Why?
Because they want to know where the food supply is.
That's why they're attacking chickens through bird flu and then cows through the Beauvier additive in the UK. By the way, I drink...
Is that referred to as the CTA, the Chicken Transparency Act?
That's great.
Oh, that's funny.
The other thing that the government in the UK is they're going to make it really, really difficult to people to home educate.
Because like Hitler and Stalin, Keir Stalin doesn't want anybody to escape from the dominant state ideology.
Of course.
Which is the climate change agenda, LBGPTQ +, and owning nothing, eating bugs, and being happy.
So they're putting in legislation, passing it through now in order to make that difficult.
But I would recommend that people really, really look into it.
I'm a child protection social worker.
I see what's being done in schools.
I've done a lot of coverage about what's happening in Ireland.
It's horrific, absolutely horrific.
And then there's what they're doing with the assisted dying bill.
Assisted murder bill.
No, we need to look after our sick and elderly, not kill them off.
Government doesn't get to do that.
Then also the open borders.
Now, I'm an immigrant.
I wasn't born in the UK, but my parents were vetted.
My father came here because he had a job that was waiting for him.
And he came here with his family, lived responsibly, paid his taxes.
He went through the process, right?
The lawful process.
Yeah.
So they're bringing in just a crazy amount of legal and illegal immigration in the absence of a growing economy.
So you have more and more people struggling for the same amount of resources.
It creates conflict, the cloud pivot strategy.
We have, you know, divide and rule, which the British imperialists are great at.
They've got a really good track record at that.
And then the...
The Tory government, and I said this on my political analysis in my videos, the preceding Conservative government, when Rishi Sunak came in, I said he's going to do such an awful job that he's going to deliberately hand Keir Stalin a massive unassailable majority.
And that's exactly what's happened.
The Labour Party in the UK is centralised, so all these MPs are blow-ins that central office Labour HQ has sent in.
They're not locally elected.
Excuse me.
So, you know, all these acts are going to go through.
However, more powerful than legislation is law and more powerful than law is morality.
Apartheid South Africa had all sorts of laws, but those laws were immoral.
So we have a moral duty to object to immoral legislation that takes away our liberties, our God-given, natural-born liberties.
And one way that we can protest this, get Bitcoin, decentralized money, and then get privacy cryptos, epic pirate cash, pirate chain, whatever, right?
Home educate, build local networks, and don't give money for genocide, terrorism, crimes against humanity, and war crimes.
Yeah, that's key.
Imagine if you divert the money that would have funded genocide and instead buy privacy crypto or buy gold.
And I want to show this just because I want to ask you.
Gold, record high.
Now, here it is on Kitco.
$2,856.
And it hit $2,875, it looks like.
I mean, this is incredible.
Gold is skyrocketing.
We already talked about the London Metals Exchange can't deliver timely on their gold.
They've oversold it.
Like you said, they've rehypothecated it.
Something big is about to break.
In all of this.
And I think the losers are going to be people that hold euros, dollars and yen.
And the winners are going to be people that have gold and privacy crypto.
What do you think?
Yeah, absolutely.
Gold, silver, Bitcoin, crypto.
Absolutely.
I don't think the dollar is going to do as badly as the pound and the euro.
True.
Yeah, I agree with you.
Because, you know, the news cycle in the US. Oh, my God.
I can't keep up.
I know, we can't either.
It's like bloody hell.
The hits just keep on coming, right?
But people can see, investors can see that the US is going to be a good place to invest.
Right.
Capital is going to flee.
The European Union has nothing, absolutely nothing.
Britain has hydrocarbons.
If only the lunatics in Parliament would get out of the way.
So that we could dig the hydrocarbons and actually have energy to run the modern economy instead of this net-zero fascism.
And destroying farms on top of that, destroying the food supply, destroying the energy infrastructure, destroying men and the whole male archetype, destroying families.
You see that in your work.
You see how children are abused by the system pushing transgenderism and mutilations.
Identity crises.
I mean, the child abuse pushed by the government is insane.
It is absolutely insane.
It is fabricated in induced illness, also known as Munchausen syndrome by proxy, on a larger scale.
This time it's the government saying, there's something wrong with you.
You know, I was a social worker some time back for a 14-year-old kid in a care home.
Just really, really bad conditions at home.
And mom wasn't getting it together.
And I'm on a call with one of the care workers in the care home, and they're saying, look, you know, that we think he might think that he's a girl.
And so we're going to go shopping with him to buy him some skirts and dresses.
And I'm thinking to myself, that's just, he's a 14-year-old kid.
He's confused as hell.
He may be gay.
You know, it's legitimate.
That's a legitimate form of male expression.
Being a man and being gay doesn't mean you're You're a man.
You're a woman.
No, exactly.
Man's body.
Exactly.
No, it's insane.
We are almost out of time here, though.
The time has gone so rapidly.
Obviously, we need to talk with you a lot more, Crypto Rich.
You've got a wealth of information.
Todd, any last question here?
And then I'll give Crypto Rich a chance to put bookends on this here.
No, it went about as well as I thought it would.
I think people are going to really like Crypto Rich.
I think so.
You're going to have fans in the States.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I really appreciate it.
And all I would say is we just got to keep saying no.
We just got to keep saying no and be ungovernable.
Some people are going to say no by going on demonstrations.
Some people like the Blade Runners are going to do what they do.
Chopping down the spy cams in London and elsewhere.
We love that, by the way.
We love the Blade Runners in London.
Yeah, I'm cheering for them every day.
Some people are going to say no by not giving their money.
But we've got to do what we can because we can't comply our way out of tyranny.
And the Great Reset is going to...
It is breaking.
It is falling apart.
They are so behind their schedule.
It's just going to be so messy between now and the other side of this.
And the other side of this, it's really, really good.
It's a decentralized world.
That's what we got to look for.
Amazing.
Very cool.
Nice summary.
Yeah.
Crypto Rich, a real honor to get to meet you here.
Thank you for coming on.
We'll do this again.
You're welcome on our show.
And I'm going to watch your channel on Rumble and also invite you to post on Brighteon.com.
We would love to have your videos on Brighteon.com.
Thank you so much.
I'm such a techno-doofus.
It just takes forever.
I started working in social work again.
I'm going to do my channel around...
Oh, sorry.
Well, I bet you have a 20-year-old son, you said.
I mean, he's probably all over the tech, I would imagine, right?
He is.
He is.
I'll tell you something funny about my 20-year-old son.
So I went to Quaker meetings for 10 years.
That's what I did.
I took my kids to Quaker meetings.
We would just sit in silence and listen to the message that Jesus came, which is Jesus came with God's message, which is love.
A couple of years ago, my son became an Orthodox Muslim.
Like five times a day, all that business.
He didn't learn it from me.
Wow.
But he's a Sufi.
In the Sufi tradition, he moved away from home for work.
And I said to him a few years ago, I said, listen, you're not moving home.
You're not leaving home.
Pakistani dad, you stay at home.
He said to me, Abu, you taught me how to walk barefoot.
Because I said I threatened to hide his shoes.
It didn't work.
Well, good for him.
We appreciate people of faith and people of ethics all over the world, however they are born, whatever.
You know, whatever the color of their skin, their expression of faith.
We just want to live in a world of ethical people who value other people.
That's what we want.
Absolutely.
Human beings, honor human beings.
And actually, Mike, one show of yours that I listened to before the election, I can't remember who the guest was, but you were critical about Trump.
In a way that I completely endorse, one of the things about Trump is that he didn't start any new wars.
Which I appreciate, unlike Barack Obama.
But his Zionism, his pro-Zionism lets him down.
Oh, we know.
It's like, watching Trump is like 95% historic, amazing, wow, and then it's like 5%, like, what were you thinking?
And it's a big 5%.
It's not a slight 5%.
No, no, it's the Netanyahu 5%, which is really bad.
It's like, okay, you're awesome here, and then war criminals.
It's like, come on.
But Mike, your message yesterday regarding RFJK Jr. hit home on him being undercover.
Could Trump be going undercover a little bit, too?
I don't know.
Maybe.
Maybe so.
I mean, Trump does not like Netanyahu.
I think he tolerates him.
And Trump's donors, many of the donors are deep-pocketed Zionists.
It is true, probably, that Trump would not have won without the Zionist money in the election.
So, you know, it's a very complex situation.
I'm so glad Trump won.
I did not vote for him because of the Zionism link.
That's why I didn't vote for him.
But I didn't vote for Kamala.
That's for damn sure.
But what?
These last two weeks, you just cannot deny.
That's right.
I love what Trump is doing almost 100%.
It's just like...
Wow, this is historic.
So Crypto Rich, we'll have to just, I don't know, we have to stay centered with our ethics and our humanity, keep demanding that of others as much as we can, take the victories that we have, and try to uplift other people.
And I think that all three of us are doing that.
That's what we're doing.
Absolutely.
Thank you so much.
Really, really appreciate it.
Thank you, Rich.
Thank you, Crypto Rich.
All right, take care now.
All right.
Wow.
An amazing guest, Todd.
Just amazing.
So we're going to take a quick break.
We'll be right back after this break with the after-party discussion, which I think should be especially interesting today.
So we'll be right back.

All right, welcome back to the after party here on Decentralized TV. And of course, Todd Pitner and I, this is where we often go way off script.
Well, we don't have a script at all.
But this is where we go a little wonky.
But hey, Todd, that was a great guest.
And you suggested Crypto Rich.
And I think that's just an amazing choice.
I really enjoyed talking with him.
Yeah, really.
I mean...
Candidly, I knew, you know, I went on his show and we talked private crypto and it was great.
Everything was fine.
But at that point in time, it just didn't come to top of mind that we should have him on DTV, even though we talk about private crypto.
And then he went into this just after party rant about war and about genocide and about everything.
And, you know, he was just so articulate with his rant.
And I'm like, oh, now, now, our.
Audience deserves to hear that, Mike.
Well, that's great.
I mean, you know, it's interesting.
Most of our guests don't talk about war or geopolitics, but it is an important factor of decentralization because if we're all under the coercion and control of a dominant military force that doesn't respect humanity, then we're all in danger.
Oh, 100%.
I mean, you just...
take a look at what's going on out there today and what has been.
And if there's anything, you have to take a look at the first half of this decade and recognize that it's been nothing but evil unleashed, I believe.
Yeah.
And oh, my goodness, it feels good.
That's why when he was talking about his process on this of doing the affidavit and basically just saying, hey, brah, I don't want to get in trouble.
I don't want you to get in trouble either.
I mean, I want to virtue signal that to you.
I just love the process.
And then being able to have it in a structured trust that ultimately, if you can get back being a beneficiary, I think that's strategically sound.
It's lawful.
And you and I talk a lot about this or have talked about it.
There's a difference between tax evasion and tax avoidance.
Evasion is illegal.
Avoidance.
We should all high-five each other.
But, you know, I interviewed Joe Bannister, the former IRS auditor, and from his view, the entire tax code is illegal.
It is.
Unless you're a PC. Right.
But you and I have chosen not to be, quote, tax protesters.
That's...
That's not what we do.
I'm not a big fan of, like, I never went down the state national path or a tax protester to where I'm going to stop paying taxes and are filing and all of that, because I just don't want to pick a fight with the IRS or the government.
But, as you know, there are other ways to be able to lawfully keep more of what you earn.
And one of the things when you pulled up that gold chart I was thinking about, I thought, Man, most of us are kind of in this position to where we're looking at gold going up, and there's this part in you, you're like, man, it's getting so expensive, I can't afford it, right?
And so when people say, oh, you should invest in gold, sometimes the answer is, with what?
Right?
And so that's where, you know, Mike, I want to end the show with my little form of evangelism, or I should say activism.
Which is helping people keep more of what they earn that then can be invested into assets that are appreciating versus going to zero like the dollar.
Yes, but before we get to that, I'm trying to bring up, I can't quite find the link, but Senator Ted Cruz, our Texas senator, here's his website.
He said, he tweeted out that he is going to push to end the IRS. Fantastic.
That would be great.
Right.
Now, what's funny about this is our guest, we were just talking about the evils of genocide in the Middle East.
Senator Ted Cruz, I've been very critical of him.
He totally supports what Israel is doing in the Middle East.
Yeah, that's what's so weird.
It's really bizarre.
But I completely support what he's saying about ending the IRS, because that's how we bring abundance back to America, is letting people keep what they earn.
So here's another case.
It's kind of like with Trump, where I totally support what Trump is doing, for the most part, and I totally support what Ted Cruz is mostly doing, except why are you supporting genocide, you know?
It doesn't make any sense to me.
Weird.
One day I'm going to ask God, you know, what was up with that?
Yeah, I mean, you have to be consistent in your principles or they're not principles, right?
Correct.
And if we say, especially conservatives in America, they, like Ted Cruz, would say it's wrong to murder children that are unborn.
Yeah.
Right?
But then on the next sentence, it's right to murder children after they're born if they're in Gaza.
And it's like, what?
But you know what's crazy, Mike?
It's that thing.
It's the lick your finger in which way the wind blowing.
It's like, I live here in Florida, and Marco Rubio, to me, the smell of sulfur surrounds him because of how he has behaved over the last, you know, all of his terms.
It's like he's kind of a fraud.
He's just a fraud that I believe has just been on the take, and he's been that typical rhino, right?
But now look at him.
Now he's doing good stuff.
I know.
I'm really impressed lately with Rubio.
I can't reconcile.
I don't know what's happened.
It's like...
They replaced him.
Maybe so.
They found another Cuban immigrant American and put him in a suit.
I don't know.
But look, I mean...
You and I are just really honest about the way we assess people and we give people credit if they're doing good things and we let them have it if they're doing bad things.
But we're also open any person that we mention here can do better things tomorrow.
They can make new choices and they can come around like seemingly Secretary Rubio is now doing.
And honestly, Trump is doing way more than I ever thought he would do in this administration.
Mind-boggling.
Mind-boggling.
It is.
It's been two weeks.
And it's, frankly, it's invigorating to expose USAID. Oh, gosh.
I'm cheering every moment.
I can't get enough of this.
I was going to insert a joke when we were talking.
I think you probably saw me put up my finger.
But I was like, just investment advice for somebody, little tip, is short, you know, when you short stocks.
Short brown paper bags because USAID is being exposed because there's no more brown paper bags to all of these congressmen, right?
That's where all that money went.
I mean, it was so recycled back to these Drew Babylonian bastards in Washington.
Here's a great example of it, right?
So the DOD funded a $9 million grant to Reuters called LSD. I forgot what it stands for, but it was a psychological weaponization against the people.
They called it LSD. Reuters got $9 million.
Guess who they ran it on?
Us!
It was a social engineering experiment on us, right?
Reuters took the money to do that.
Politico, they set up these VIP subscriptions for $10,000 a pop.
And then the State Department, And HHS and FDA, they would buy like 100 subscriptions at $10,000 each.
That's money laundering into Politico from the government.
Really bad.
Fucking fraud, man.
That is criminal.
It is criminal.
And you know, I, you know.
I don't know who benefited ultimately.
Who were the frickin' manufacturers of these stupid plexiglass shields within all of retail?
I want there to be an executive order that signs those away.
They're just ridiculous.
They're just like, they put me in a memory hole whenever I go into a retail store and you have them up there.
It's just silly, Mike.
Well, that's true.
But getting back to our theme here of decentralization, you know, what Trump is doing.
It's amazing.
And it's his staff now.
He's got staff that are actually trying to bring down the whole deep state system.
And as I mentioned, Tom Luongo, who's a guest with Crypto Rich, Tom Luongo says that Trump is actually trying to completely dismantle the city of London control over the United States of America.
And that gets into the whole corporate history is America a corporation.
And is he going to reset that and clear out all the debt?
Which I hope he does, man.
I hope Trump says we're ending the corporation.
We're going to start a new thing called the Republic of America or whatever.
We're going to have a new money supply backed by gold and maybe a digital version of the gold like it's crypto-gold combo.
We're going to have a new currency.
And just all the former employees of the federal government, you're done.
All of you, you're done.
He just may pull that off.
I pray he does pull that off.
That's exactly what we need.
I mean, just pull the plug on the whole damn corrupt system.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I kept, I mean, once he was elected, I just, you know, and he did that first day of press, you know, executive order signings and whatnot.
I just kind of thought it would fade to black, you know, but no.
I know, I've been so impressed.
Yeah, I think he literally has caffeine.
Beelined right into his veins.
That's how he takes his coffee.
We are watching history in the making.
This is a truly historic time.
This will never happen again in our lifetime, something like this, like what we were watching.
Now, in the meantime, until the IRS is ended, which hopefully will be soon, You have a strategy.
This is something that you bring into every show to kind of plug the things that you're into.
My575, tell us about that.
I'll bring up your website for you.
Nelson Rockefeller coined the phrase, own nothing, control everything.
And I can assure you that the Rockefeller Foundation is not an entity created to tickle Nelson's sense of benevolence, for sure.
It's a lawful entity that has many tax, personal liability, and property protection advantages.
And as you know, through my website, my575e.com, I help people acquire similar lawful advantages without the need for an army of accountants or attorneys.
And you know my favorite stat, Mike?
Now, it's of those who visit my site, who watch the 90-minute free educational video and they download the instructional PDF, and then subsequently book a meeting with me through the site.
It's a modest fee to do that.
Of those who go through that process, 80% end up acquiring an unincorporated nonprofit association.
That means 8 out of 10 people who invest the modest consultation fee, they get it back, Mike, because I don't want it.
I just tell them to take it off the top of the investment.
So for those of you who make, because I have a lot of people that said, yeah, I've been hearing you and Mike talk about this, but I finally decided, you know, I just have a few more questions that I just am unsure.
And that's beautiful, right?
Book a consultation with me and...
You might be one of those 8 out of 10 people.
And the 2 out of 10, there are different reasons, Mike.
But I just want to let you know that I'm thinking I can't make it any easier for people to at least kick the tires and see if this might be for you.
I mean, we now have, since I've started talking about this on the show...
Well over now, well over 100 UNA operators in our private telegram group that is invitation only after you acquire it.
And I mean, it is an amazing group of people.
They listen to this every show they listen to.
So let me shout out to UNA Biz.
Okay.
They're awesome.
The thing that struck me about this that's so powerful is that this is an IRS-recognized structure and that...
When people go through this process with you, they are given, by the IRS, a tax-exempt tax ID number.
And what's so interesting to me about this is when I founded my church last year, I was also given a tax-exempt tax ID number.
Even though I didn't file my church with the IRS, I filed only to get the tax ID number, which is necessary to open bank accounts.
So the IRS doesn't know that my church exists.
They know that I have an exempt tax ID, which the church has, but the IRS doesn't know anything about the church.
So the UNA, I think, is very similar to that.
The UNA is created also by a government entity, the Secretary of State of California.
Any two people in any state can open up a UNA. I will tell you, because I know you'd be absolutely nuts to try to operate the UNA as we do if it's not created in the state of California.
Now, that doesn't mean that you have to operate it in the state of California, just like if you've got a Wyoming C-Corp or something from Delaware.
You can be anywhere in the country, so don't get hung up on that.
So you take this lawfully created Secretary of State sealed association number.
You have that assigned.
We go through the process with the Internal Revenue Service to be able to apply that tax-exempt ID number to it lawfully again.
And with those two documents and your Articles of Association, you can take it to a bank and you can open up your bank account to where You control everything, but you own nothing.
Mike, I don't know how this works.
I joke that one day I'll ask God, but we don't own the UNAs.
We just are the good shepherds of them.
They own themselves.
Right, it's kind of like what our guest described with a trust, but this is not a trust, but there are some similarities.
The trust is its own entity.
They behave very similarly.
Yeah, and so it has its own rules, its own articles of incorporation, etc.
All right, so your website for that, again, is my575e.com.
Here it is, yeah, my575e.com.
I want to encourage people to check that out.
And then, Todd, I love your feedback on our toothpaste and our new toothpaste made in America.
Here it is.
It's available now at healthrangerstore.com.
We are going to, in the next batch, increase the paste, the calcium carbonate.
Yes.
So that's because of you.
And I went home and I used it.
I'm like, Todd is right.
It needs a little more paste.
The other ingredients are awesome, but it just needs a little more paste.
So anyway, the current formulation is available now.
And then when that's out, we'll make the new formulation.
But we've got a lot of products back in stock, including, I just want to show people, if you scroll down here, matcha superfood latte.
This is new.
And this is...
The green tea matcha, which is very often contaminated with various things.
So we did the testing on this.
It's clean.
And then we've got back in stock, we've got raw cacao nibs right here, which for six months we couldn't get raw cacao that wasn't contaminated with cadmium.
Yeah, imagine that.
I mean, cacao has a lot of cadmium and lead in it in certain places, certain times of the year.
So we finally have a clean lot of cacao nibs.
I don't know how long this will last, but if you love chocolate and you want to put cacao nibs in things like smoothies, this is the perfect place to do that.
And then finally, the sponsor of the show also is the Satellite Phone Store here at sat123.com, sat123.com.
And they've put together special deals, a satellite phone and a power station here, or they've got Starlink bundles and they've got...
Like NMAR SAT phones with backpacks that have the shielding material in them to block EMF, block radiation, and block surveillance.
Faraday bag material.
So all of that's available at sat123.com.
I showed my SAT phone off this weekend, this past weekend.
Oh, you did?
I guessed over and kind of went in my little secret room and I'm like, yeah, this is where my testosterone flows in here.
But you got to see this.
I used this.
I called Mike.
He knows you.
I said I called Mike during the hurricane.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I'm so glad you got that phone because, yeah, that was right before the hurricane hit, like the day.
It was.
Man, Mike, rest in peace, my food forest.
Gosh, that freeze just totally, I think I lost three quarters of it.
I am so.
Devastated.
Look, all your bananas will come back.
They will.
I just did a lot of pruning out there yesterday and just spent time with my fallen friends.
It was a crazy freeze.
This is going to be a case study in nature's resilience.
I will report back probably in April and let you know how it goes.
I'm not doing anything with it.
I'm just going to pray that God's way smarter than me, and that this all comes back to life.
Well, look, I mean, your raccoons came back after the flood.
They came back after the flood, and now they are more robust than ever.
I was going to tell you at the beginning of the show, when I get reincarnated, I want to come back as one of these little raccoons.
They're back there in my yard right before the show, just rolling over with each other, a ball, and I'm like, my gosh, I'm going to be a raccoon.
And they have swimming skills now, apparently, too, because they survived the deluge of that hurricane.
What was the name of that hurricane again that hit?
Oh, gosh.
Is that Milton?
Milton, yeah.
Ah, Milton.
Okay.
So the hurricanes came back.
I think your plants are going to come back for the most part.
You may end up with only a 20% loss.
Okay.
I'm guessing.
I'm just hoping the 20% loss aren't all of the trees, because I can see all...
Boarding stuff, but it seems like the trees are what just got, you know, devastated.
So we'll see.
All right.
Well, we'll expect an update from you in April or March.
I mean, you're in Florida, so spring comes early.
Yeah.
So let's see where we are in March.
You know, if these barren trees, if they get these little green buds, I'll be happy, man.
And you know what?
Nature is resilient.
So, you know, this will be interesting.
Okay.
Todd's happy buds.
That's the update coming.
Right after the end of the show, I'm going out there and I'm going to hang with him.
All right, Todd.
What a great show.
Thank you for the guests and thank you for joining today.
Thank you for taking the time, all of it.
I love the fact that we're giving our audience such practical information every episode.
And I want to remind our audience there are many more episodes.
Every one of them is available at decentralized.tv.
And, oh, also, our new AI model is about to be released, Enoch, on March 1st at brighteon.ai, and it's free, and it's open source, and it's decentralized knowledge.
So take advantage of that.
Hey, Mike, lastly, I just want to share one thing with you.
I did a consultation this last week with a woman, a lovely woman, and very, very, you know, she follows the good book, right?
And at the end of the consultation, She asked if I had a couple of minutes that she'd like to say a prayer.
And I'm like, of course.
And she prayed for you and me and this show.
So I just wanted to share that with you.
Oh, wow.
Really, really special.
That's amazing.
Yeah.
Well, we feel blessed.
She put a hedge of protection around us.
We absolutely, look, I don't think we would even be here without truly divine protection.
I mean, all these years.
I mean, look how many...
You're going to be watching, and I just want to let you know, thank you.
Yeah, thank you.
We openly accept your prayers, and we are here to serve humanity and to serve God.
I mean, that's what we're doing.
That's what this is all about.
Yep.
There's a thousand other things that we could do, but this matters the most of what we're doing, is helping to empower and uplift and inform our fellow human beings to create a brighter future for all of us.
That's why we're here.
Yep.
All right.
Well, we'll wrap it up there.
Okay, Mike.
Always, always great hanging with you.
You too, Todd.
You too.
And my dog says hello here, too.
He's hanging out.
You want to see him?
Of course.
I always love seeing Rhodey.
All right.
Let me see if I can get him up here.
Hey, Ro, get your toys.
Get your toys.
Get your toys.
Yeah.
And come on up.
Get your toys.
All right, come on around.
Yep, over here.
All right.
Over here.
Come on.
Look up.
Hey, good boy.
How you doing?
How you doing, Cody?
Huh?
Oh, he's so cute.
Yeah, he was sleeping, though, so he's a little bit disturbed his sleep.
But I want everybody to know he's doing great here.
That's a great shot right there.
He's got his toys.
And the other day, he had four of these rings, and two of them were broken like that.
And he had them laid out on the ground and it's spelled Coco.
And I thought maybe he wants me to bring back Pastor Coconato.
Oh, there you go.
There you go.
My dog is spelling out the names of guests that he wants us to have back on.
Providential.
I like it.
Yeah, let's reach out to Pastor Coconato and get him back on.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
God works in strange ways.
That's all I'm saying.
Right, right.
All right.
Well, have a great day, everybody.
And thank you, Todd.
And thank all of you for watching.
And again, check out all our episodes at decentralized.tv.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brighton.com.
Take care.
