Welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News with Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Let's go.
Welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News for Friday, February 28th, 2025. Got a lot coming up for you today.
I'm Mike Adams, your host, the Health Ranger of brighteon.com and naturalnews.com.
Thank you so much for joining me today.
February is almost over, which means that March is here and March is the month that we are releasing our AI model, Enoch.
At brighteon.ai.
Now, it is delayed.
We were originally going to release it tomorrow, but it's slightly delayed.
It'll still come out in the month of March, and it's going to be really something.
So sign up for it at brighteon.ai, and you'll be alerted via email when the model is available.
Now, today on the show, oh boy, of course we're going to talk about the failed release of the Epstein files.
Interesting story there.
Turns out the deep state is just refusing to follow orders, and they're still trying to sabotage Trump from the inside.
So we'll take a closer look at that.
We've also got a really amazing brightlearn.ai book video for you.
As promised, today's book is called The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin.
So this is a classic book at this point.
I mean, G. Edward Griffin.
Himself is just an extraordinary champion of liberty.
And so we've got an eight-minute review of his book in an illustrated video format.
That's coming up.
You're going to love that.
And we've also got a book review video on a book by Tom Fitton called Clean House, Exposing Our Government's Secrets and Lies.
I can't think of a...
A better and more timely book review to show you than that one.
And then also today I've got an interview with Eric Coppolino from Planet Waves.
And Eric, we talked to him after the, what was it, the Palestine-Ohio train accident.
You know, the dioxin issue.
He knows a lot about dioxins.
And so we're talking about all the toxic chemicals being released after the California...
It's been a while, like a year and a half, whatever it's been, since I interviewed Eric.
See if you can notice how his look has changed.
Because he's not the same looking dude as last time we interviewed him.
I don't care what people look like.
I care about their knowledge and their values, etc.
But it's a very different look.
I'll just put it that way.
So that's coming up.
Before we get to all that news, just a couple little notes.
Some of you were asking, am I still doing speedcubing?
Yes, I am.
I'm not going to do a demonstration for you right now.
I have been learning speedcubing, which is solving the Rubik's Cube, for over two years now.
And I have...
A lot of it nailed down.
I still don't have all of the single-step OLL patterns memorized, but there's a lot, and this is not my primary focus, obviously.
However, just the other day, I did have about a 22-second solve, which is the fastest that I've done in a long, long time.
And it was a full solve, all the steps completed in about 22 seconds.
Most of my solves are closer to about twice that, like 45 seconds or something like that, pretty much solving everything under a minute.
And I think when I get a little bit faster, I will maybe shoot a new video on that for you and just show you some of the solves.
But I continue to insist that if you want to exercise your brain and your fingers and hand-eye coordination and planning and everything, pick up speedcubing.
It's actually a really great...
For me, it's been a really wonderful hobby to have, and I like to work my brain and my hands at the same time, and speedcubing is a great way to do that.
The funny thing, though, is no matter how fast I solve a cube, like sometimes somebody will ask me, like, here, solve this cube, you know, and so I'll solve it in like 30 seconds, and then almost everybody says the same thing.
Well, did you see that Asian kid that did it in seven seconds?
I'm like, Yes, and I'm not that Asian kid.
I don't have little 12-year-old Asian kid fingers that move at 1,000 miles an hour, so no, I'm not going to be doing that.
But it's funny that everybody has seen a video of some Asian kid, and actually there's a Russian dude that has done it in four seconds, and then there's another Asian guy that's done it in four seconds, and then there's an Asian guy that does it one-handed in under 20 seconds, which is...
Pretty insane.
So yeah, we all know there's an Asian kid that can do it faster.
Totally.
That's probably true with math, coding, AI, and Rubik's Cubing.
Alright, the second thing I want to mention is what happened to cling wrap?
Now, I don't use a lot of plastic in my kitchen or in my cooking or whatever, but I was visiting a friend's house and they had a cling wrap, you know, like a roll of, I guess, Plastic wrap or cling wrap, and I was trying to use it, and I'm like, where's the serrated edge ripper on this thing?
How do you rip off the plastic?
And they're like, oh, don't you know?
They got rid of all those.
Now you have to do this other thing, which is you have to use this zipper with a little blade in it, and you have to slide it along the top, and it doesn't work, and you can't get the plastic cut correctly with this thing.
Apparently, they took a product that used to be amazing that had a serrated edge that was incredibly useful.
I mean, that's what I remember growing up.
You pull out like 18 inches of plastic from the roll and then you twist the box and it rips it off.
It cuts it off and you're like, I'm done.
I can cover the bowl or whatever.
They destroyed that apparently because somebody cut themselves on the serrated edge.
And so every manufacturer of every one of these cling wraps had to go to this useless zipper thing that doesn't work.
So that's how, quote, progress has ruined a perfectly usable product in the past, no longer usable today.
So what I found is that you have to buy an industrial-sized cling wrap box.
I bought one just to see if it existed that has a really gnarly...
Serrated edge on it.
Looks like you could saw trees with this thing, but it's industrial only.
It's got like 5,000 feet of plastic in it or something.
It's huge.
And that's the only way you can get a serrated cutting edge now if you use plastic wrap in your kitchen.
How amazing is that?
Also, if someone comes into your house and tries to kidnap you and puts your hands behind your back with a zip tie, you can use this edge to escape.
You just rub the zip tie on that serrated edge and it will cut it.
Boom!
You have escaped.
See?
That's why MacGyver would have real clean wrap with real serrated edges because you never know when you have to cut something.
You know, for a good purpose.
Now, this brings up the issue of why everybody seemingly in society is so concerned that everything has to be so safe, so safe, that we have to give up.
Utility for safety.
Everything has to be safe.
We can't have one person cut one thumb.
You still have steak knives.
I mean, come on, you still have knives.
I hear people cut themselves in the palms all the time trying to open avocados.
So, you know, if you use a knife in a stupid way, you can still manage to cut yourself.
Why can't they just have cling wrap with...
A gnarly knife edge and just say, be an adult.
You know, hey, this thing cuts.
Don't rub your hands all over it.
You know what I mean?
And by the way, people do cut their palms open trying to open avocados.
And since I actually drink avocado smoothies every day, as you know, and I've never cut myself by trying to cut an avocado, there's a simple, simple rule.
You always make sure that whatever you're cutting, your hand is not under the knife, okay?
So it's very simple.
You want to open an avocado?
Here's what you do.
You put the avocado on a cutting board, usually on its side, okay?
And then you take the knife and just touch it on the top of the avocado, like where you're going to cut it in half lengthwise.
You put the knife up there, okay?
With your other hand, you put your fingers and your thumb on opposite sides of the avocado, kind of straddling the back of the knife or the spine of the knife.
And then when you're cutting down with the knife, your fingers and thumbs and hands aren't underneath that sucker.
And all you're going to do is cut the avocado and not your palm.
So apparently some people are holding the avocado in their hand.
And then putting the knife on it and cutting it.
And if that avocado happens to be soft and mushy, that knife just goes a little bit too far.
Oh, wait a second.
I didn't know avocados had beet juice in them.
Wait a second.
That's not beet juice.
That's my blood supply.
So if you're dumb enough to cut things holding them in your hand, then you're going to get a lesson.
In losing some blood, probably.
And hopefully you learn from that, right?
Hopefully you learn and you say, hey, here's a great idea.
When I'm cutting things, I should not hold on to them in my hand and cut towards my hand.
That's a really important concept.
In a similar fashion, if you are chainsawing a fallen tree log, don't put your leg under the log.
Because that chainsaw is going to go through the log and then it's going to go, oh, that's my leg.
And those of you listening who are emergency room doctors or technicians, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Because what do people show up with in the emergency room?
Oh, I chainsawed my leg again.
Or what's the other chainsaw injury?
Right in the, what is it, the third eye, right in the middle of your forehead.
You sawed your forehead open.
How did that happen?
I'll tell you how it happened.
Because somebody's chainsawing a log, and they got the chainsaw and they're pressing down on it, and they got the chainsaw centered with their body mass on top of the chainsaw, and they're looking down at it with their face.
And then, what happens?
The cut is almost done, and then the log shifts, just, you know, because it's starting to give way, and then it...
Pinches the chain.
And since the chain is moving rapidly, the pinching causes it to kick up.
And it kicks up and it goes right up your forehead.
There goes your third eye.
So, again, all of you who work in emergency rooms, you know what I'm talking about.
People come in, they've cut their, they've sliced their forehead open vertically, or they've sliced open their leg, those are chainsaw injuries, or they've cut through their palm by trying to have avocados.
All of these injuries are completely avoidable.
And the secret is, use chainsaws on avocados and knives on trees, and then you won't have any of these problems whatsoever.
Okay.
Enough said.
Moving on.
Hey, you know that the kid that died in Texas and then the media went crazy and said the kid died with measles?
You know they injected the kid with live measles virus in the hospital.
And then when the kid died from other causes, they said he died with measles.
So they vaccinated him with MMR, which has live measles virus in it.
So think about this.
So they had a kid that was about to die, and what did they do?
They said, oh, well, we could turn this into a vaccine scare story to scare people against anti-vaxxers.
Let's spread panic about measles.
Let's do this.
Before the kid dies, inject him with MMR. And then we can say he died with measles because we injected him with live measles virus, and that's what they did.
That's how nefarious these people are.
And then they ran all the scare stories across the country.
A child dies with measles!
He didn't die from measles.
He was almost dead, and then they injected him with measles.
I mean, how evil is that exactly?
That's insane.
That's what they do to push vaccines in America.
They murder children and blame it on anti-vaxxers.
Yep, that's what they do.
All right, let's talk about the Epstein files.
As you know, we were all promised by A.G. Pam Bondi and Paulina Luna.
What's her full name?
That's not even a real name.
We were promised that they're going to release the Epstein files yesterday, or at least some portion of them.
And, of course, myself and Aaron Day and others, we were all tweeting out.
You know, this is all going to be a giant nothing burger.
You're all being played.
This is nonsense.
They're never going to release the Epstein files.
Not really.
At least that's what we said.
Okay.
And I have a very good reason for that.
Because Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent and he was collecting blackmail to be used by Israel to blackmail U.S. politicians.
And it worked.
Look how compromised...
Almost everybody is in Congress, in the White House, everywhere.
The governors, they're all beholden to Israel for some reason.
They pledge allegiance to Israel.
Why is that?
Because Jeffrey Epstein got the blackmail on everybody.
And they just say, look, if you don't put Israel first, we're going to release the files on you.
What files?
Oh, the Epstein files.
So they all know.
So that's reason number one.
But the second reason is that You know, the deep state is not defeated yet.
Trump's only been in office a little over a month, like, what, five weeks or something.
This is going to take some time.
So the deep state is fighting back, and they don't want to release the real information.
So what they did release was this joke of a binder.
They handed it out to certain conservative influencers for some stupid reason.
Who walked out of the White House, I guess, and took selfies.
Look, I have a binder!
And historically, it's one of the dumbest photos.
It's just, I mean, these people, this is not good for their reputations.
Let me just put it that way.
Because there they are smiling and laughing about a binder of information that actually was supposed to detail child rape.
And, you know, it's not a laughing matter, really.
I know sometimes I laugh inappropriately at things, so I get it.
But in this case, if we actually got the names of who was a client of Jeffrey Epstein and who went on the flights and, you know, the child-rape flights and who visited Epstein Island and who raped children there, that would be, I mean, those are arrest-worthy crimes.
This would change history.
This is a very big deal.
So it should be taken seriously, in my view.
This could just completely shake up the whole scene here.
But, of course, the documents that were released were just completely redacted, or nearly completely redacted.
And it was a big nothing burger.
The documents were nothing.
And so Pam Bondi...
Looks like an idiot at this point, and she is screaming at the FBI, New York office in particular, but the Southern District of New York, the federal prosecutors there, SDNY, who are totally corrupt.
They are totally corrupt, deep state, left-wing Trump haters.
Apparently, they and the FBI held all this back.
They held back all the documents and just released a bunch of garbage.
Basically saying...
We're not going to release these documents.
You know, make us.
So Kash Patel then tweeted out that we're not going to put up with this.
This is going to be about transparency, and we're not going to allow anybody within the FBI to hold back on documents that have been ordered to be released.
And Pam Bondi has said something similar.
And Pam Bondi, in my view, and I've seen other people say this, Had better arrest these SDNY prosecutors, better arrest them, better arrest FBI agents like today.
They should all be arrested, publicly arrested, handcuffed, perp-walked in front of the cameras to send a message that, hey, we're the new Trump administration, we're the new DOJ, and I'm Pam Bondi, and we are not messing around.
If you interfere with the release of these documents, you are going to prison.
And if Bondi fails to do that today, then it shows you that something else is afoot here.
Probably Israel.
Probably Mossad.
Because, again, almost everybody in the Trump administration is loyal to Israel first.
Including, I mean, look at what Patel had to say to get confirmed.
Look at what Bondi had to say.
Look at what they all had to say.
Look what Trump had to say to get elected.
They're all beholden to Israel's interests.
So if these files come out, they're going to be heavily redacted to take out any links to Israel, because that's the cover-up within the cover-up, is Israel's ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
But if they do come out and name some of these deep state people or globalist people, Well, that would be a plus.
That would be worthwhile.
And I hope that still happens.
And it would help reestablish credibility within the DOJ and within the Trump administration and within the FBI. So Kash Patel and Pam Bondi and President Trump have a critical decision to make right now.
If they back down from this, then it means that the whole promise Of draining the swamp is really, it's a joke.
But if they don't back down and if they kick ass and they arrest these people who took part in this and they go in there and they seize the documents, and by the way, inside the FBI, rogue agents have been destroying evidence for weeks.
They've been deleting files like crazy.
All those people need to be identified and arrested too.
If the arrests happen, then it's epic.
Then it's historic.
At that point, you know, wow.
Okay, I'll be impressed at that point.
But let me read this for you because Liz Wheeler was there, or at least she's been in communication with a lot of people.
So here's the way she tells this story.
She says, President Trump and A.G. Pam Bondi committed to releasing the Epstein files.
The FBI was told to deliver the files to Bondi.
They did deliver about 200 pages.
Bondi smelled a rat.
Because there was nothing juicy in the 200 pages.
Just flight logs and a Rolodex of phone numbers.
There was no smoking gun.
Still, Bondi promised to release the documents, so she prepared a binder of them.
Then, last night, a whistleblower contacted Bondi and revealed that the SDNY was hiding potentially thousands of Epstein files, defying Bondi's order to give them all to her.
We're talking recordings, evidence, etc.
The juicy stuff.
Names.
These swamp creatures at SDNY deceived Bondi and Kash Patel and you.
Be outraged that the binder is boring.
You should be, because the evil deep state lied to your face.
The binder is powerful, though, because it's tangible physical evidence of the disgusting stunt the SDNY tried to pull.
Bondi is now demanding all the Epstein evidence from SDNY plus an investigation into the persons who committed this act of defiance.
Right?
And that's exactly what should happen.
And I've got another video here for you.
This is from Nick Fritas.
I guess that's how he says his name.
Who was also there in the room.
Just about a one minute video and he explains what happened.
Check this out.
All right, social media has been blowing up, and I think it has something to do with, yeah, that right there.
Here's what I'm going to tell you.
Yeah, I was in the room when Pam Bondi and Cash Patel, the attorney general and the director of the FBI, were handing these out.
And right off the bat, one of the first things they said was, we're going to be releasing this to the public.
What you need to understand is that there really isn't a smoking gun in the new information that we have available, except for the fact that it has become evident.
That certain members of the FBI have been withholding information from the attorney general's office.
Now, the AG has been pursuing this, but now we have a new director of the FBI, Kash Patel.
So what we finally have is an attorney general and a director of the FBI that actually wants to get to the bottom of this and will hold accountable not only the people on the Epstein list, but the people within the government who have been withholding key information in order to subvert prosecution.
Now, as information becomes available...
They have to be careful because they have to weigh what they need to get out to the public at the same time that they're going to need to be able to prosecute certain individuals.
So I understand that.
Here's what I'm saying.
I know we're all frustrated about this because we should have had a lot more information a lot sooner.
But I genuinely believe that we have people in power now that want to do something about it.
And quite frankly, I'm willing to let them cook.
Kind of interesting.
He said, I'm willing to let them cook.
And I think, from the context, I think he means that I'm willing to give them the time and space to let them go to work to get the job done, to do the investigations.
But that could be taken a different way.
It's almost like, I'm willing to let them burn.
But I don't think that's what he meant.
Nevertheless, it's going to be an interesting day today to find out what Pam Bondi does.
Is she going to just bend over and take it?
Is she going to stand up and assert her power as the Attorney General of the United States of America, or at least the U.S. federal government, comma, Inc.?
Is she going to assert her naval admiralty power and demand the documents?
I guess we'll find out.
All right, now something else going on is, of course, the mad gold rush.
Gold panic.
It's now underway, and it's become increasingly clear that the gold is actually missing from the Federal Reserve.
This isn't about Fort Knox.
Everybody talking about Fort Knox, that's actually a distraction.
Most of the gold that's supposed to be stored in the continental United States by, well, the financial system, let's say, is actually supposed to be in the basement of the Federal Reserve Building in New York City.
Now, I understand the Federal Reserve is not part of the federal government, but it's part of the banking system, and they're supposed to have the gold.
But that's where the gold is really missing, and there are other vaults around the country where the gold is no doubt missing.
And that's why the government, the Treasury, and the Federal Reserve is panicked to refill the missing gold, to replace it, before the audits begin.
So check out this special report about...
Forget Fort Knox.
And then we shall continue on the other side.
Now it's become obvious to me and many, many other people that all the panic gold purchases from the Bank of England and all that gold that's flying on practically every commercial flight to New York is actually, it's gold that they're trying to put back into the Federal Reserve's gold vault.
Because the Federal Reserve is missing its gold.
And you know how Trump and Elon say, we're going to audit Fort Knox.
We're going to inspect Fort Knox.
Yeah, Fort Knox is nothing.
That's not even where the gold is really mostly kept.
It's supposed to be kept, a lot of it, in the New York Federal Reserve.
I think it's like the fifth subfloor, you know, like in the basement.
That's where the gold's supposed to be.
And we know it wasn't there.
They're trying to restore the gold.
They're desperately trying to bring it back before the audits begin.
That's what's going on.
The Federal Reserve is a giant racketeering criminal cartel.
Obviously, it's not even part of the federal government.
And they claim to have gold, but they lent it out, and they lent it out over and over again, and they did a bunch of paper shenanigans.
They rehypothecated the gold.
And then they ended up with not enough gold.
That's what's going on.
So, if Trump and Elon only take a video camera in and live stream Fort Knox, that's theater, folks.
You gotta audit the gold in the Federal Reserve.
And it's not just in one location.
I think...
New York is the largest location, but there are other Federal Reserve locations around the country that are also supposed to have certain amounts of gold.
And there are other vaults besides Fort Knox that are run by the United States government.
So you need a full audit of all the gold.
And if that doesn't happen, we're all being scammed yet again.
If it ever does happen, if the U.S. government actually says, oh...
We have this much gold and here are the videos and here are the audits to prove it.
It's physical gold.
Then get ready because that means they're about to launch a new currency or a re-backing of the dollar with gold.
In other words, if they actually show up with the gold, that's because they're planning to back a currency with that gold.
That means so obvious.
And if that happens, gold is going to skyrocket compared to the dollar.
And I suspect, I mean, this is my own opinion.
You can argue with me or disagree, whatever, fine.
My own opinion is that Trump and Doge, they're going to launch a parallel competing currency that I'm just going to call the new dollar.
Okay?
The new dollar.
And it's going to coexist alongside the old dollar, which is the current dollar.
The new dollar will be backed by gold.
The old dollar, nope.
Because the point of not backing the old dollar with gold is to be able to print it and pay off all the debts.
Print $36 trillion over time in the old dollar and pay off all the treasuries in the old dollar.
And print that money and...
Pay the pensions of the federal workers.
Pay all the dollar obligations of the federal government in old dollars.
Just print, print, print to oblivion.
But then launch a new dollar backed by gold that becomes the new world reserve currency if Trump can succeed, if he can pull it off.
Because you've got to compete with BRICS now.
And BRICS is a settlement system that's rumored to be backed.
Largely by gold.
And what does that mean?
It means that if you're backed by gold, nobody can counterfeit the currency.
No nation can counterfeit it.
And since under Biden and other presidents before, even under Trump, the dollar was weaponized.
The international settlement system, the SWIFT system, also was weaponized against all these nations around the world.
And all the economic sanctions have weaponized the dollar.
Most other countries around the world are saying, we're done with the dollar.
We don't trust the dollar.
Even Russia.
I mean, especially Russia.
They don't trust the dollar.
So everybody's moving towards a different currency, which would be the BRICS currency.
So why would any nation trust the dollar when the dollar can just be counterfeited into oblivion?
Nobody will trust the dollar.
Nobody will want to use the dollar.
Would they use, though, a new dollar that's backed by gold and backed by the United States?
Yes.
The answer to that is yes.
That's different.
That's how Trump could bring back global trust in a kind of dollar, a U.S.-backed currency, as long as it's backed at least partially by gold, which means it can't just be pegged to gold.
It has to actually be redeemable in gold.
So you have to be able to take those dollars somewhere, I don't know, to your local Federal Reserve Bank or I don't even know where you would go.
You bring in a bunch of dollars or you write a check or whatever and you get physical gold.
That's what is needed to restore trust in this monetary system.
And under that system, how much do you think gold would have to be worth?
In terms of the currency, in order for the government to back the currency, the entire currency supply they need, to back it with gold.
Think about it.
If they have X number of tons of gold, if they value that gold at only, let's say, $3,000 an ounce, which is almost the current spot price, then you can only create so much currency equal to that $3,000 an ounce multiplied by the number of ounces of gold that you have, right?
But if you value gold at $30,000 an ounce, then you can create 10 times as much currency.
And all of a sudden, you have 10 times more liquidity, you could say, in the currency markets, and it's all still backed by that gold.
So the incentive for Trump and Lutnik and Besant and all of them, the real incentive, at least this is my analysis, is To create a new parallel currency, back it by gold, but then value that gold at something like $20,000 an ounce or $30,000, I should say, new dollars per ounce.
Something in that realm.
Maybe $25,000 new dollars an ounce.
And then they can create large numbers of new dollars.
You see what I mean?
And then as that happens, of course, the old dollar...
Its price versus gold would begin to move to match the new dollar price because who wants old dollars anyway, as those are just printed to oblivion without being backed by anything.
In fact, if gold is, let's say, $25,000 new dollars per ounce, it might end up also priced at like $50,000 old dollars per ounce or, you know, something like that.
That kind of dynamic could happen.
These are not specific price predictions, just to be clear.
I don't know what exactly is going on.
I don't have any super secret inside information.
I'm just saying that the dollar as we know it is dead.
I mean, it's dying.
It's on its way to its deathbed.
They're going to have to do something radical, something different.
And this is why I think they're bringing back the gold.
They know that the only way to have a world reserve currency that nations trust is to have it backed.
Significantly, buy gold.
So in other words, people holding dollars, old dollars, in this whole thing, they're screwed.
People holding gold are going to be well-positioned, obviously.
Whatever the government does, it's clear that there's a mad scramble for gold.
So consider getting more gold for yourself.
I can't think of a better way to preserve wealth and assets right now than to just get more gold and silver.
And you can call our sponsor.
Reach them online, metalswithmike.com.
That's the Treasure Island Coins and Precious Metals Company, metalswithmike.com.
Just want to tell you, I do not earn a commission on gold and silver sales there.
They are a sponsor, however, and I've kept them as a sponsor year after year because they are trustworthy.
They are honest.
They are professionals.
They don't run bait-and-switch tactics.
They're very trustworthy.
They're discreet.
You know, guaranteed insured delivery of physical gold and silver right to you, or they can also vault it for you, and they can even run gold and silver IRAs that are IRS compliant, at least, you know, as long as the IRS even exists, which hopefully won't be much longer.
So check them out, metalswithmike.com, and do your own research.
What I've said today, this is not financial advice, just to be clear.
Do your own research, make up your own mind, but get ready for what's coming.
Thank you for listening.

But here we go!
The Creature from Jekyll Island.
Today we're embarking on a journey through the shadows of our financial system, exploring a topic that is as fascinating as it is crucial, the Federal Reserve System.
And we're going to do it by taking a closer look at a groundbreaking book, The Creature from Jekyll Island, by G. Edward Griffin.
Now, I know what you're thinking.
The Federal Reserve?
That sounds about as exciting as watching paint dry.
But trust me, this is no ordinary story.
It's a tale of secrecy, power, and a banking cartel that has shaped the course of history in ways you might never have imagined.
Let's set the scene.
It's November 1910, and the world is on the brink of monumental change.
But in the United States, a secret meeting is taking place that will alter the course of history in ways that few could have predicted.
Picture this.
A group of the world's most powerful financiers, including Senator Nelson Aldrich, J.P. Morgan's right-hand man Henry Davison, and Paul Warburg, a representative of the Rothschild banking dynasty, are gathered in complete secrecy on Jekyll Island, Georgia.
Their mission?
To create a blueprint for what would eventually become the Federal Reserve System.
But why all the secrecy?
Well, these men represented a staggering one-fourth of the world's wealth, and they were determined to protect their interests.
They knew that if the public caught wind of their plan to form a banking cartel, it would be dead in the water.
So, they disguised their meeting as a duck-hunting trip, using aliases and taking every precaution to ensure their true identities remained hidden.
Imagine the scene.
A private railway car, luxurious and discreet, whisks these men away to a remote island.
They arrive under the cover of darkness, their identities concealed from even the servants who attend to their every need.
Their goal?
To create a cartel that would eliminate competition, control the money supply, and use the power of the government to enforce their agreement.
In other words, they were crafting a system that would allow them to create money out of nothing, lend it to the government and the public, and collect interest on it forever.
Fast forward to 1913, and the Federal Reserve Act is passed into law.
But here's the kicker.
The Federal Reserve isn't federal.
It doesn't hold reserves.
And it's not even a bank in the traditional sense.
It's a cartel, plain and simple, disguised as a government agency.
The architects of the Federal Reserve were masters of deception.
They knew that to sell their plan to Congress and the public, they had to make it sound like a measure to protect the public.
So they crafted a system that appeared to be decentralized, with regional branches, but was in fact controlled by a powerful Federal Reserve Board in Washington.
The Federal Reserve Act was a masterstroke of political maneuvering.
It was sold as a reform bill.
But in reality, The Jekyll Island conspirators had succeeded in creating a central bank that would operate in the shadows, free from public scrutiny and political interference.
Now, let's talk about how the Federal Reserve creates money.
This is where things get really interesting.
The process is known as the Mandrake Mechanism, named after the magician who could create things out of nothing.
Here's how it works.
The Federal Reserve buys government bonds and other debt instruments, and it pays for them with checks that have no money in the account to back them up.
These checks are, in effect, creating money out of thin air.
The government then spends this newly created money, and it enters the economy.
But that's just the beginning.
The real magic happens when the commercial banks get involved.
Thanks to the fractional reserve banking system, banks are required to keep only a fraction of their deposits in reserve.
This means they can lend out far more money than they actually have.
So when the Fed creates new money, the banks can multiply it by up to nine times through the process of lending.
This is how the money supply expands.
And it's also how inflation is created.
The more money that is pumped into the system the less each dollar is worth.
It's a hidden tax that erodes the purchasing power of your money over time.
The consequences of the Federal Reserve's policies are all around us.
The boom bust cycles that have plagued our economy for decades are a direct result of the Fed's manipulation of the money supply.
The Great Depression, the stagflation of the 1970s and the financial crisis of 2008 can all be traced back to the actions of the Federal Reserve.
But the impact of the Fed goes beyond just the economy.
The ability to create money out of nothing has given the government the power to wage wars without having to raise taxes.
The Federal Reserve has financed both world wars, the Korean War, And let's not forget the role of the Fed in the global transfer of wealth.
Through institutions like the IMF and the World Bank, the Federal Reserve has become the lender of last resort for the entire world.
It has used the wealth of the American people to prop up corrupt regimes.
Fund socialist experiments and create a global financial system that benefits the elite at the expense of the masses.
So, what can we do about it?
The solution, according to Griffin, is to abolish the Federal Reserve System and return to a sound monetary system based on precious metals.
He outlines a 16-step plan to achieve this goal, which includes repealing legal tender laws, freezing the supply of Federal Reserve notes, and issuing new currency backed by gold and silver.
Now, I know what you're thinking.
That sounds like a radical proposal.
And it is.
But as Griffin argues, the current system is unsustainable.
The only way to break free from the cycle of boom and bust, inflation and government debt is to fundamentally change the way we create and manage money.
In conclusion, the creature from Jekyll Island is a wake-up call to all of us.
It challenges us to question the assumptions that underpin our financial system and to consider the possibility that there is a better way.
Whether you agree with Griffin's conclusions or not, Thank you for joining me on this journey.

All right, now, welcome back.
And I've got a special report for you with an interesting title.
It says, Federal bureaucrats and tyrants are learning that karma is a bitch.
Turns out there's going to be close to 1 million workers in the D.C., Virginia area that lose their jobs.
It's estimated to be about 300,000 federal workers there, plus about 600,000-plus contractors.
Trump has announced that USAID is going to be permanently cut by 90%.
He's working to end the IRS. And the massive reforms by Kash Patel, for example, he's already sent out, I think, thousands of agents.
He's going to relocate them out of D.C. And then Secretary Kennedy of HHS, you know, he's probably getting ready to make some big announcements about cuts at the FDA. And HHS and who knows what, the CDC. This is why the media is running the measles panic hoax to try to say, well, you can't cut our budget.
You know, children will die.
Nonsense.
It's all a hoax.
And I hope that Secretary Kennedy slashes the budget and the size of the FDA and the CDC. I've argued that the FDA should be either completely shut down or split up into two groups.
But the bottom line is that...
The people losing their jobs, these are not good people.
I want to be clear about that.
Don't feel sorry for them.
They're not good people.
These are the people that destroyed our lives.
They destroyed our businesses.
They destroyed our freedoms.
They tried to force us to take death jabs and depopulation bioweapons injections.
They lied to us.
They silenced us.
They wanted us thrown in quarantine camps.
These are not good people.
So as they lose their jobs or lose their homes or lose their careers, do not shed a tear for these people.
They don't deserve your pity at all.
They don't deserve forgiveness from anyone other than God himself, and that's up to him.
So here's my special report on that.
Federal bureaucrats and tyrants are learning that karma is a bitch.
You want to hear about real karma?
Well, all these federal workers that ran these bureaucracies that terrorized the American people, the IRS, the FDA, the EPA, the FTC, the ATF, the DEA, you name it.
The FBI, all they did was function as psychological terrorists targeting American citizens and American small businesses.
And now they're nothing but saboteurs against this republic.
Guess what karma is going to give them?
As the dollar collapses, all their pensions and benefits will be worth zero.
You know why?
I mean, why is this dynamic happening?
Because these people, they trusted a system.
They dedicated their lives to a system built on destruction.
That had its sole purpose of destroying American innovation, destroying the American people, destroying Americans' health so that Big Pharma could profit, destroying Americans' access to energy so they could push their climate cultism nonsense.
The entire system of the federal government, as it existed under Obama and Biden in particular, was a system of destruction.
And thus, it's only fitting, it's only karmic, that the people that contributed to that system will see their own financial reality completely destroyed.
Because that is the destruction that they unleashed upon everybody else in America.
And now it's coming back to them.
So their pensions are defined in dollars.
Dollars are going to be reset, effectively collapsed.
Now, this might not be instant.
It'll be over time, but it'll be rapid.
The purchasing power of the dollar will collapse very rapidly, possibly over a period of just a few years.
And as a result, yeah, these former federal workers that terrorized the country, sure, they'll get their pension check.
Yeah, it'll be the dollar amount they were promised.
The dollar just won't be worth anything.
And they'll be completely screwed.
You know why?
Why would they be screwed?
Because they never bought gold and silver.
Because they didn't believe in gold and silver.
They would roll their eyes and say, oh, only kooks, you know, only crazy people buy gold and silver.
We believe in dollars.
We believe in the government.
We believe in the treasury.
Yeah, okay.
Well, they can take that belief with them all the way to the very end of the dollar, the very end of their pension, the very end of their lives, I suppose, at some point.
They never had gold and silver, so they have nothing that holds value.
And they will wake up one day and realize that they have nothing.
They dedicated their entire lives to a system of destruction that left them with nothing.
A system that effectively destroyed their own lives.
And at the same time, these very people that are being let go from government, they're being fired.
Massive downsizing is coming.
Trump already announced it.
He said every department needs to prepare for massive government downsizing.
And it turns out that most of these people that worked in the federal government, they have no job skills.
You know why?
Because they sat on their asses and did nothing in the federal government.
They didn't show up to work.
They have fake master's degrees.
Most of them.
They're not even real degrees.
They have fake PhDs.
I mean, okay, yeah, they have a certificate that says PhD issued by some woke university somewhere, but they never had to do anything because they were the right color or the right LGBT or the right ethnicity or whatever.
So they never had to be graded.
They never had to...
Actually prove anything or earn anything.
It was all handed to them.
So they have no job skills.
They can't do anything in the real world.
Out in the private sector, there's nothing.
No one will hire them.
Because they can't do anything.
So their career is finished.
And federal government is massively downsizing.
The dollar is headed for collapse.
Their pensions are going to be destroyed.
Think about it.
Most of these people in the bureaucracy, they deserve every single thing that's coming to them.
The total destruction of their financial reality, they deserve every bit of it.
Many of them actually deserve to be imprisoned and prosecuted for the terrorism they carried out against the American people.
But every single one of them deserves what they have coming, which is complete financial wipeout.
Don't shed a tear for them.
They are evil, dark-hearted people that would have cheered all of us being thrown in prison.
They cheered every time they destroyed a small business.
They cheered when they locked down churches and gymnasiums and hair salons during COVID. They cheered because it was their power.
They were in charge.
And they were getting free money with the USAID distributions and all the treasury fraud and all the kickbacks and bribes, all the grifting.
They were...
In charge and living large with their luxury pools and their jacuzzis and their vacations.
They only had to show up like one day a month at their job.
Wow, what a life!
Yeah, don't feel sorry for these people.
Don't shed a tear.
They are not good people.
They are parasites.
They are cancer tumors living off the system.
Living off of the rest of us who are actually working for a living.
The rest of us...
Who are putting in long days and skipping vacations and skipping holidays in order to try to build a future for humanity.
No matter what it is that you do listening to this, even if you're an HVAC worker, if you're a truck driver, you are delivering goods, you are doing something that matters.
If you're an HVAC, you are fixing air conditioning or heating, keeping people warm, providing shelter.
If you're a home construction person, you are helping build homes.
That provide a quality of life for people.
What were the government workers doing in the federal government?
Destroying everything in sight.
Shutting down, causing economic pain and suffering, terrorizing the people, the IRS terrorizing, oh, we're going to steal all your money.
Prosecuting people, throwing people in jail for non-crimes like they're doing to Roger Ver, like they did to Julian Assange and Ross Ulbricht and all the others.
That's all they were doing in the federal government was destroying and causing suffering.
So don't shed a tear for those people.
They are evil people.
They deserve everything that they have coming, that they unleashed it upon themselves.
They dedicated their lives to a system of evil and corruption and destruction.
And you reap what you sow.
So what they have coming is what they unleashed.
It's karma.
You know?
It's absolute karma.
Whereas the rest of us, who have been operating with ethics and morality and working to help people to try to end human suffering, to try to protect human life, to try to educate and empower and uplift each other, we also get what we deserve, which is a brighter future.
Together, we get a brighter future.
But in order to have that brighter future, we have to defeat and dismantle the system of evil.
And throw the bums out who were running that system of evil.
And I don't care if they end up homeless and destitute.
That's the life that they chose, and that's exactly what they deserve.
If they lose their homes, oh, boo freaking hoo.
If they lose everything, boo freaking hoo, because that's what they did to everybody else this entire time.
They did it gleefully.
They laughed.
In their arrogance as they destroyed people's lives, now that they're destroying their own lives, I say karma is a bitch.
So enjoy it, folks.
We're never going to see this happen like this again.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to watch evil people get exactly what they deserve.
Thank you for listening.
Mike Adams here, the Health Ranger, the founder of Brighteon.com.
The publisher of naturalnews.com and a real American, a real Texan who works his butt off, that's me speaking in the third person, working my butt off to try to make America great again, make America healthy again, and trying to overcome all the terrorism and all the destruction wrought by these federal workers who hate this country and they hate everything it stands for.
I've been fighting against them this entire time.
They're going down and we are moving up.
We are going to make this country great again, and we're going to reestablish liberty and freedom for this nation, despite the evil tyrants that tried to destroy it.
Thank you for listening.
Take care.
All right, now we're going to go to another book review video by Tom Fitton.
Well, the book is by Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch, and the book is called Clean House, Exposing Our Government's Secrets and Lies.
And yes, Tom Fitton would know.
Remember, it's his organization that got the FOIA documents that showed that the FDA had a full-time worker that did nothing but harvest human organs from aborted human babies to be used in humanized mice experiments.
And it's the same kind of thing that goes on to harvest fetal tissue to make vaccines.
MRC5, WI38, these are two ingredients made from human fetal cells.
That are grown in large vats in a cancer-like process, and then they're ground up and processed and put into vaccines that are injected into other children.
So medical cannibalism is a very real thing, and it happens every day in America.
Every time a child is injected with MMR vaccines, that's medical cannibalism.
They're being injected with the ground-up tissue from another child.
Yeah, seriously, that's the reality.
So if you love medical cannibalism, you know, take more jabs.
But if you don't want to inject ground-up, you know, aborted baby organs into other children, then don't inject them with vaccines at all.
Anyway, here's the book, Clean House, by Tom Fitton.
Hello, everyone.
Today, we're taking a journey through a pivotal period in American history, the Obama administration.
We'll explore revelations from the book Clean House, Exposing Our Government's Secrets and Lies, by Tom Fitton, the President of Judicial Watch.
This book is a treasure trove of insights into the inner workings of government secrecy, transparency, and the relentless pursuit of truth.
So grab your headphones, settle in, and let's get started.
When Barack Obama took office in 2009, He promised the most transparent administration in history.
But did he deliver?
According to Fitton's book, the reality was far from the promise.
The Obama administration was marked by an unprecedented level of secrecy, with thousands of Freedom of Information Act, or FOIA, requests going unanswered.
Judicial Watch, a government watchdog group, filed over 3,000 FOIA requests during Obama's tenure, Many of which were met with silence or resistance.
The book highlights the administration's reluctance to disclose information, even on critical issues like the Benghazi attack and Hillary Clinton's emails.
It describes a pattern of stonewalling, where federal agencies put up hurdles and resisted complying with FOIA requests.
This lack of transparency raises a crucial question.
How can a government be accountable to its people if it operates in the shadows?
One of the most shocking revelations in the book is the detailed account of the Benghazi scandal.
Judicial Watch's relentless pursuit of the truth uncovered a smoking-gun email that exposed the Obama administration's attempt to mislead the public.
The email, sent by then White House Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes, Instructed officials to portray the Benghazi attack as a spontaneous protest rather than a premeditated terrorist attack.
This email, along with other documents, revealed a deliberate effort to manipulate the narrative for political gain.
It showed that while the administration was publicly blaming an obscure YouTube video for the attack, they were privately aware of its true nature.
This revelation not only contradicted the official story, but also raised serious questions about the administration's credibility and its commitment to transparency.
The book also delves into the Hillary Clinton email scandal, a saga that unfolded over several years.
Judicial Watch's investigations revealed that Clinton used a private email server to conduct official business, potentially putting sensitive information at risk.
The administration was accused of covering up the existence of this server, delaying its disclosure until well into the 2016 presidential campaign.
The book highlights the Obama administration's efforts to shield Clinton from scrutiny, including the withholding of key emails and the slow pace of document production.
It also underscores the role of Judicial Watch in forcing the release of these documents, which ultimately led to the FBI investigation and raised the specter of criminal charges.
Another scandal that takes center stage in the book is Operation Fast and Furious.
This botched ATF operation allowed guns to flow into the hands of Mexican drug cartels with deadly consequences.
The book details how the Obama administration attempted to cover up the operation Even invoking executive privilege to withhold documents from Congress, Judicial Watch's lawsuits peeled back the layers of this scandal, revealing the extent of the administration's involvement and the potential for political manipulation.
The Fast and Furious scandal is a stark example of the dangers of government overreach and the importance of transparency and accountability.
The book also explores the IRS targeting scandal.
where conservative groups were singled out for scrutiny by the tax agency.
Judicial Watch's investigations uncovered evidence of political bias within the IRS, with officials using their power to stifle dissenting voices.
The book describes how Lois Lerner, the head of the Exempt Organizations Division, orchestrated the targeting and attempted to cover it up.
The Obama administration's response to the scandal was to downplay its significance and avoid holding anyone accountable.
This lack of accountability further fueled public distrust and underscored the need for vigilant oversight.
The book sheds light on the Obama administration's approach to immigration, highlighting its reluctance to enforce border security and its efforts to provide administrative amnesty to illegal immigrants.
Judicial Watch's investigations revealed a pattern of the administration prioritizing political expediency over national security.
The book also discusses the dangers posed by the influx of illegal immigrants, including the presence of criminal elements and potential terrorists.
It underscores the need for a comprehensive and secure border policy, free from political interference.
Throughout the book, Judicial Watch emerges as a relentless advocate for transparency and accountability.
The organization's efforts to uncover the truth, often in the face of fierce resistance, demonstrate the power of citizen activism and the importance of a free press.
Judicial Watch's work serves as a reminder that government accountability is not a given.
It must be fought for.
The book calls on Americans to remain vigilant and to demand transparency and integrity from their leaders.
As we wrap up this episode, I want to leave you with a call to action.
The fight for transparency and accountability is ongoing, and it requires the participation of every citizen.
Whether it's through supporting organizations like Judicial Watch, contacting your representatives, or simply staying informed, Each of us has a role to play in safeguarding our democracy.
Thank you for joining me on this journey through the pages of Clean House.
I hope this episode has inspired you to dig deeper and to take an active role in the pursuit of truth and justice.
Until next time, keep learning, keep questioning, and keep shining a light on the shadows.

Welcome to today's interview here on Brighteon.com, and we have a returning guest that we haven't spoken with for about two years.
It's Eric Francis Coppolino, and he is with PlanetWaves.fm, is one of his websites, Pacifica Network.
He is the producer of his show, PlanetWaves.fm, and he's collected a lot of information.
He's an expert on the toxic chemicals that are coming out of the California fires.
He and I spoke a couple years ago about dioxins from the East Palestine train accident in Ohio.
And now he brings us a lot of new information about what's coming out of California.
Eric, welcome to the show today.
It's great to connect with you again.
It's been too long.
Thank you, Mike.
Mike, good to be back.
Great to have you back.
We had great discussions a couple of years ago, and I noticed how at that time the EPA and at the time Senator Vance, I believe, was just denying that that was a problem with I think he was walking around barefoot in the creeks while dioxins were everywhere.
Right?
Remember that?
Well, but who were the ones that prompted the, was it the Pennsylvania settlers who prompted the EPA investigation?
I don't recall, but the EPA barely tested anything.
Oh, no, no, no.
EPA's job is to not find the dioxins.
Absolutely.
It was a giant cover-up.
Even to this day, that's still a massive cover-up.
But now we have something far...
And they bought them all out?
No, go ahead.
Oh no, they bought them out.
I mean, there was a buyout.
And I lost contact with most of those folks.
They were not eager to stay in touch.
And I was amazed at how limited the interest in the press was.
These were the highest circulation substacks I ever wrote.
Like hundreds of thousands of views designed to inform the press.
And I made a press list of like 100 reporters and none of them got back to me.
I wrote to everyone and not a single one wrote back to me.
Oh my.
Okay.
Well, let's pivot now to California because these fires that burned at least, what was it, 14,000, 15,000 structures, something like that.
Yeah.
The Palisades fires, but they were much more than the Palisades.
You and I both know, Eric, and we were texting privately about this, that...
When those homes burn, and those businesses burn, it's burning PVC material, it's burning plastics, it's burning really toxic substances.
What is the big impact of all this toxicity that people were breathing, firefighters were breathing, first responders, residents, and some of it's fallen on the croplands, etc.?
Give us the big picture view first, and then we'll get into the weeds here.
The net effect is that wherever there were homes that burned, you now have essentially a toxic waste dump.
Period.
That's what you have.
And that is because, as you correctly point out, these homes are constructed largely of plastic.
Sure, there's some wood, there's also wood preservatives, and then there's all the various forms of vinyl siding.
And then everyone's home is made of plastic, you know, filled with plastic.
And there are many examples of things that are made of some form of PVC. And so what you're getting is an indeterminate toxic brew of all of these things, basically partially combusted, which then are hosed down at various stages.
And that spreads the toxicity.
And so essentially every one of these neighborhoods is turned into a little miniature love canal, only for the most part the toxins are going to be situated above the ground and in the topsoil, except for when they drain into the earth and into the aquifer there.
Right, so the toxicity, just fighting the fires itself, spraying water on everything, spreads the toxicity.
Yeah.
Into the waterways, into the aquifers, etc.
Yes.
Yeah, it's very dangerous business.
And, you know, in an urban setting where it's contained, you know, where it might be one or two buildings, it's still pretty dangerous.
But the firemen have to wear Scott Airpacks.
It's very uncomfortable for extended periods of time.
I don't think that those firefighters were all wearing Scott Airpacks.
This would be an astounding amount of air.
So the firemen are always exposed, firefighters are always exposed to the toxic chemicals in the structure that's burning, whatever that is.
And because of the high amount of plastics, we have all this partially combusted plastic.
And then, which is toxic in ways we just don't know.
And then all the PVC turns, it basically partially combusts into a chemical, or it's actually a group of 130-something chemicals.
Called chlorinated dioxins.
And the thing is that now, well, it's been a while, maybe since the mid-1990s, there have been numerous chemicals that have been reclassified from their previously scattered concepts and groupings into now a larger group called dioxin-like compounds, which contains essentially everything.
With a halogen and some form of a coplanar molecule where that is to say the molecule is flat and has a greater chance of fitting into liver receptors and various things to cause hormone damage.
So dioxins are carcinogenic, but they are carcinogenic often by way of endocrine disruption.
And so all of these plastics, even if you don't...
Burn them.
They are endocrine disruptors.
So we're in this environment of endocrine disruption.
Okay, but let me add, and this came out of the East Palestine accident.
Whether it was an accident or not, I guess, is another discussion.
But the fact that the worst dioxins, and when we say dioxins, it refers to a class of chemical compounds.
There are many different dioxins and PCBs.
But the worst of the dioxins...
Can cause cancer at femtograms of exposure.
So, let's see.
It goes micrograms, and then nanograms, and then picograms, and then femtograms.
Yeah, that's probably one part per trillion of a kilogram.
Is that right?
I mean, we're talking about so many orders of magnitude.
Yeah, but I mean, a part per trillion.
A part per trillion would be a picogram, right?
Because a nanogram is a part per billion.
A picogram is a part per trillion.
We're down to the molecular level.
Yeah, we're talking about a thousandth of a trillionth of a gram is what we're talking about here, I believe.
A femtogram, right?
So that level of exposure can cause cancer, which means that in one house burning there, there's enough material to cause cancer for, like, everybody.
Assuming exposure, but yeah, sure.
Assuming exposure.
It's very, very bad stuff.
And the problem is it's not going to be treated that way.
These are not going to be treated as toxic fires.
These are going to be treated as ordinary house fires.
So the EPA is not going to come in and declare the entire thing a Superfund site.
They're just going to bulldoze the land and rebuild on it.
When in fact, we should really have an environmental assessment that I think would call for removing at least 6 to 12 inches of topsoil over the entire thing and replacing it.
But to do this, you've got to have a map.
You have to take like 10 acres and make a grid.
And get a sense of how it spreads.
And no one's going to do that.
Well, and plus, I mean, the topsoil, that's where most of the microbiology lives in the soil, which is really critical for other roles in the ecosystem.
But you've also got the whole downwind problem, right?
So the winds were fierce during these fires.
That's part of the problem.
And in some cases, I believe those winds were 80 miles an hour.
So how far away?
What was the dispersion pattern of these toxins?
Nobody can really know.
Actually, nobody cares, actually.
I mean, aside from you and I, Eric, and our audience, it's like, who even cares about this?
It's like, oh, we're all going to die of cancer.
Don't worry.
You know, AI will find cures.
Okay.
Yeah, something's going to get you.
Or, you know, Larry, what's his name?
Ellison is going to come up with the magical...
Yeah, the vaccine cure.
Robot cure for dioxin cancer.
Yeah, now we're going to have dioxin vaccines.
Go ahead, please.
Dioxin vaccines.
That'll be the next one.
We'll have to take dioxin vaccines.
Well, I'm thinking, you know, my joke used to be that someday the world will be so clean that we'll need to take a toxin supplement.
Well, don't worry.
Those already exist.
They're called pharmaceuticals.
You can get them at any pharmacy.
But this affects more than people, right?
This affects the animals.
This affects the ecosystems.
And it affects the food.
So we know that dioxins in the food chain, they are fat-soluble and they bioaccumulate in the fat tissues, which means they end up in chicken eggs.
They end up in cow meat and fat and hogs and every kind of animal, obviously, and butter and milk and whatever.
Since California produces so much food, and some of it, even almond orchards, almonds have fat, right?
So are we going to have dioxin almonds from California now?
Where does this go?
To be fair, I don't think this was that kind of a release.
But all smoke is toxic.
And I'd rather have a forest burning than have 16,000 homes burning.
True.
Right?
So there has to be some assessment done if we really want to know.
So what we're going to get here is this is going to add to the background level in that region, and it's going to add to it in a measurable way.
That's what I would predict, that it would be if you were to do honest testing, it would add to the background in a measurable way.
I think that obviously this is going to be less serious of a crisis than East Palestine.
It'll be less serious of a crisis than Times Beach or Love Canal.
It's not on that level.
But people are going to live on that land again.
I mean, that's the thing.
And they're going to be breathing in that dust.
All those forests are going to regrow.
And there's going to be this light coating of these substances.
And I would add that we don't really know what the total effect is because this is a brew of probably a thousand chemicals.
I mean, cars burning.
Cars are very serious.
They're loaded with vinyl paints.
People with paint sheds burning, tool sheds burning.
Which is one thing when it's one or two homes, when it's 16,000 homes and 16,000 luxury homes, all of which had some kind of a paint closet.
Yeah, that's not good.
Right?
So there's like a tool shed or a paint closet.
But I think the point that it would be wise for us to make here and to persist with is where is the investigation?
Where is anyone who actually wants to find out what...
What the situation actually is.
We can speculate.
Obviously, there are toxins released.
There are numerous kinds of toxins released.
They're going to be less in the air, mostly in the ground, and some in the water.
But where, how much, and what toxins?
And I would bet almost any amount of money that they're not going to test for any of this stuff.
Of course they're not.
Right.
That's called the environmental don't ask, don't tell policy.
Don't ask.
Lois Gibbs told me that first.
She said, if you want to understand Lois Gibbs, who organized the evacuation of Love Canal, hello Lois, who got me started on all this madness in 1983. She said, if you want to understand the policy of the New York State Department of Health, it's don't look, don't find, not there.
Yeah, that's right.
And if you tell them there's benzene, they'll look for toluene and declare it free of toluene and benzene because they didn't find the benzene.
Totally.
So once again, roll out every trick in the book.
And I think that a long, long time ago, really, honestly, around the time of Love Canal, on a federal level, This was a neighborhood that was evacuated in 1980, where after like a five-year battle, you know, well, 78, 9, three-year battle, that they were never going to have another love canal.
And that is why they handled East Palestine the way that they did.
And that was a very serious release.
Yes.
And here, you know, there's no pressure.
And it's because...
Because dioxin-like compounds were only a fraction of the chemicals released, right?
The house is not going to be more than half a percent.
Well, the vinyl siding, but see, the vinyl siding is a real problem, right?
All the houses with vinyl siding, that's going to combust into dioxin.
So we don't know the answer.
We just know there's probable cause to check.
We're recording this on the day that the Senate Finance Committee confirmed RFK Jr. to go to the next step, which would be a full Senate floor vote.
Now, RFK Jr., someone who I support for head of HHS, former Democrat, and someone who's very concerned about pollution, about toxicity in the environment.
HHS does not have authority over EPA. EPA is now headed up by a Republican, Lee Zeldin, who I believe ran for governor of New York and did not win.
I don't know that Zeldin, I have no idea if he has any knowledge about toxins or pollutants or anything.
But what is your take on, let's say, RFK Jr. and his influence on if he runs HHS, do you think that he can do some good about helping us deal with, you know, Pollution or reduce it in America?
What's your take on that?
I don't know if he's effective at all.
He's best known.
I mean, I knew of him when he was an environmental attorney and I worked for a law firm that was kind of inspired by him and had a picture of Robert F. Kennedy hanging on the wall, his father.
But I covered RFK Jr. on the issue of virus existence.
And I did not have a positive impression of him.
I found him to be dissembling.
I found him to give very incomplete versions of events.
In one article, I quote four different responses to the virus existence issue surrounding SARS-CoV-2.
And he did not want to deal with the issue.
And then, of course, he comes out with a book that claims that there was a lab release.
If there was no virus, how is there a lab release?
But it sold a lot of copies, and it became the official government narrative.
So now we have this person who's supposed to be anti-government advancing the official government narrative, which is the lab release narrative of SARS-CoV-2.
So I don't know how that is any kind of an activist of any kind.
I don't see him as being any kind of a pariah.
And then he gets in front of the...
The most famous anti-vaxxer in the world gets in front of the Senate committee set to approve him, and he says that he's in favor of the vaccine schedule.
He's taking a lot of heat for that, that's for sure.
He's in favor of the vaccine schedule?
With 60, 70 shots going into a baby like a pincushion?
Yeah, yeah.
I don't get this.
Well, I've got a couple theories on this, just my opinion.
I think that he...
This is just my guess, but I think he's playing game theory with the senators to get their vote.
No, I think he's telling them things that they want to hear because he knows they're totally corrupt and paid by Big Pharma.
But in his heart, he knows vaccines are dangerous.
I mean, come on.
He's built this multi-billion dollar, not quite billion, but he's built up CHD into this massive organization.
That's supposed to be warning us about the danger of vaccines.
Right.
But then he says he's in favor of them all.
That's not the right answer to give.
But in a practical sense, though, Eric, if you or I were in front of the Senate, like, we would never be confirmed because they would ask us, like, what do you think about vaccines?
They're all toxic.
Don't take any of them, you know?
We don't walk in front of the Senate.
That's why we're talking on Brady on News.
Yeah, we're not going to run HHS, that's for sure.
Thank God.
But, no, I appreciate your feedback on that.
He also said something else that really insists.
Oh, he said that Operation Warp Speed was a great success.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
Yeah, but then he's also on record as saying that it's the most dangerous vaccine in the history of vaccines.
So how is it possible that Operation Warp Speed was any kind of a great success, but the COVID shot was the most dangerous shot of them all?
Yeah, they both can't be true.
No, they can't be true.
This is Reid Orwell's essay on political speech.
This is straight out of the head.
You know what I'm talking about?
You will laugh your ass off.
It's one of the funniest things ever written.
George Orwell, it's on political speech, I think it's called.
This is exactly, precisely what...
Kennedy is trained to do.
You can't blame him.
He's from a great political family.
His father, fantastic orator.
His uncle, fantastic orator.
I bet what was the older brother who was killed over the English Channel?
I bet he could talk a good line.
But it's political speech.
And besides which, the Kennedys were not who we were told that they were.
We have this whole Camelot myth about the Kennedys.
It does not...
Did you say something?
Well, yeah.
One interesting thing is that when RFK was confirmed by the Senate Finance Committee, Pfizer stock plummeted and other pharma stocks plummeted.
And I was like, that's a great sign, actually.
At least investors believe that RFK is going to rein in some of the abuses of big pharma, the direct-to-consumer drug advertising, perhaps.
What do you make of that?
I lost this thread.
Was he approved for HHS? He was approved by the Finance Committee, but not yet the full Senate floor vote.
That's coming.
So there's another step.
This is going to come down to Vance again.
It may very well come down to Vance, who loves to frolic barefoot through the dioxin-contaminated rivers of Ohio.
So, you know, whatever.
It's disheartened that so many people are willing to trot out their hero worship again for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is – he's just simply a political actor.
I mean there's not anything especially bad about him or especially good about him.
I think he's a fairly ordinary political actor, kind of like the rest of them.
But he's just got the name.
Kennedy, and that's it.
We shouldn't expect anything different from him than we've had.
Let me redirect on that a little bit, if you don't mind.
Number one, his whole family despises him, so he's not really with the Kennedy clan, right?
Because they're all against him.
Yeah, but there's so much misunderstanding about this.
They despise him because they think he's an anti-vaxxer, but he's obviously not an anti-vaxxer.
So, to me, it's really like...
Looking into a kaleidoscope, trying to sort all this out, when I've gotten my own notes, my own direct contact with him and his organization.
And if you recall, I don't know if you remember this story, but I got to him in Greenwich, Connecticut, and I was the second person asking the question in the Q&A, and I said, Mr. Kennedy, thank you for all you've done.
Are you aware that there's someone in...
There's someone in Canada named Christine Massey who now has 209 responses from various different agencies.
Yes.
And they all say they can't produce a sample of SARS-CoV-2.
They all say the same thing.
They can't produce any evidence, any scientific paper from anywhere in the world that shows that anyone actually found this virus.
And he did the worst three-minute shoes tied together, two left feet.
Dan stammering around, it took my then-girlfriend three hours to transcribe three minutes.
And then we still found mistakes, but still, she's a very smart girl.
It took her three hours to transcribe three minutes.
And so, it was ridiculous.
He was unprepared.
He should have been prepared for that question.
He should have known to say, young man, good question.
We'll get back to you.
Next, please.
That's how his father would have handled it.
That's how his uncle would have handled it.
He would have said, take a walk.
I recently published a really nice video report on the book by Dr. Thomas Cowan called The Contagion Myth.
Yep, I know that one.
With also, what's her name?
Morell.
What's the organization?
The name of the organization with the dentist?
The dentist?
ADA? No, no.
Founded by the dentist that...
Weston Price.
Weston Price.
Gosh.
His name's slipped my mind.
Cowan's big in Weston Price.
Right.
And I'm sure they sit down to a big meal of organ meats every night.
Gotta have the organ meats.
But it's Sally Fallon Murrell.
That's her name.
But Dr. Thomas Cowan.
So...
But I gotta say, Eric, when...
You know, we are living in a nation.
That worships scientism.
Right?
Absolute scientism.
Everything's broken down.
It's materialistic.
It's subatomic particles.
They're always particles.
No, they're not, but whatever.
And they say that there's this thing.
You can't see it.
We can't isolate it.
But it's real.
And it's a virus, we'll call it.
It's a virus.
And then the virus infects you and it replicates.
This is part of the culture.
To challenge that is like challenging people's entire belief system in many cases.
Well, it's true, but I think that if we want to follow the science, we have to ask ourselves whether this approximately whatever 130-year-old theory has ever been shown to be true.
And I don't mean on terms set by people who don't think there are viruses.
I mean, was the theory ever borne out by the...
The rules established by, for example, Dr. Koch and Dr. Rivers.
Do their rules hold up?
In other words, we want to prove these.
Koch's postulate, Rivers' postulate.
Well, it turns out that they don't.
And so they've been saying all along, well, this is Koch's postulate.
This is Rivers' postulate.
This is what we have to have to make it real.
And then they can't even live up to their own standards.
It is mind-boggling to think of it that way, but they've had well over a century to prove this theory and to show that any part of it is real, and their pandemics don't even behave like pandemics.
That's true.
All the early cases, here we are, by the way, it's, well, now it's February, half a decade.
Can you believe that, Mike, that half a decade has passed?
What, since COVID? Since the first COVID? Yeah, and at this time, they were trying to sell it, and they had no clusters in China.
You would think you'd have the whole town sick or the whole family sick, right?
That's, oh, it's contagious.
All 10 people who lived together, they all got sick.
No.
All their original cases were individual cases.
They were not clusters of any kind.
This is very well documented.
And it didn't even spread across U.S. cities the way it should have if it were highly contagious, because...
Travel was still happening, especially in the early months of it, right?
It didn't spread anywhere.
It should have been in Chicago, Miami, Houston, everywhere.
Here's the best example.
And I was looking, you know, I think that, who has it said all politics is local?
And I say all news is local.
So I cover these international issues.
But I'm always paying attention to what's going on right in my neighborhood.
And I'm in kind of the northernmost rural-ish suburb of New York City.
So you can walk like three blocks away from my office and get a bus.
Down to the city.
So all through the spread phase, right, all through when this thing was supposed to be spreading, the commuter buses were packed running back and forth.
And then supposedly everyone drops dead in New York City and nothing happens up here except for a couple of few scattered claimed deaths, you know, that are obviously, in retrospect, hospital problems.
But there was no...
Epidemic up here.
And if the pandemic theory was true and it really was true that there was a disease vector, contagious disease vector going on in Manhattan, it should have been brought right up here directly, immediately.
Yeah, clearly, clearly.
But what's extraordinary about what we're talking about here today together is that we live in a country where the authorities say, essentially, there are no dioxins.
Don't look at that.
That's not real.
But there are these viruses and you have to wear masks that can't possibly stop viruses.
But somehow those masks will help you.
But don't pay any attention to these actual chemicals that might kill you.
Those aren't real.
Yes, you make a very good point.
Now here, that's it.
You've cracked the formula.
So the formula is that you blame the reaction to a toxin on a virus.
So, case in point, when people were sick at Love Canal, and mind you, Love Canal was 23,000 tons of industrial chemicals under the ground with radiation way at the bottom, and they were saying, oh, you just have the flu.
You have some kind of a virus.
Right, it's a virus, they would say.
Totally.
Yeah.
No, no, they did say it.
I know, they did.
They did say it, and you could walk out there and take a big stick and poke it in the ground, and you'd come up with toxic crud on the end of the stick.
And they were telling people to not spend more than like somewhere like a minute and 50 seconds in their basements because it was so toxic.
Like Chernobyl, you mean?
Like Chernobyl time limits where the soldier had to shovel for 30 seconds and that was a lifetime of exposure?
Yeah, basically.
But they were telling this to families living in the Love Canal neighborhood.
I continue to have a fascination with the Love Canal neighborhood.
And by the time...
You publish this.
Just let me know when.
I'll get my new photos of Love Canal.
I was just there in the fall to document the condition that it's in, but this is a neighborhood that was built on top of a massive toxic waste dump in Niagara Falls, New York, where there were 20 different chemical firms, and they were dumping for a decade all through World War II and into the 1950s, and then they filled it in with dirt.
And then they built a school directly on top of it and a thousand homes around it.
And a second school about eight blocks away.
And then the chemicals started coming up from the ground and they started soaking into people's homes.
And this created the...
There's a PBS documentary that came out last year that is really A+. Wow.
I believe it's called...
I'm not sure, but if you look up PBS documentary...
Love Canal.
It is really some of the most amazing video compilation and editing work I've ever seen.
And then a book came out called Paradise Falls.
Is it called Poisoned Ground?
Yes.
Poisoned Ground.
Here we go.
It's an American experience brand of PBS, like you said.
Here it is.
I've got it on my screen.
Can we show that?
Poisoned Ground, The Tragedy at Love Canal.
It's an utterly breathtaking documentary.
Wow.
Okay, I'll check it out.
I can vouch for everything in it being true.
I'll check it out.
Now, then a book came out, and the beauty of this book, the book is called Paradise Falls, and the beauty of the book is that it does not focus on all the made-for-TV stuff because Gibbs was a master.
She was a master at television.
I've never seen her chart, but she's got some streak of genius.
It's almost like she had all of Marshall McLuhan's information in her mind.
But I'm sure she never, ever read a Marshall McLuhan book.
You can't.
She knew how to direct the activists for television.
They were brilliant at it.
So you get all of that in Poisoned Ground.
But what you get in Paradise Falls is all the negotiating behind the scenes.
The politicians who stood up for the residents, the researchers and medical doctors who stood up for the residents, you don't really hear about them so much in Poisoned Ground.
And it was one of the most satisfying books I've ever read.
Okay, so let me summarize this, because this is really extraordinary, what you're bringing to the surface here, Eric.
And Dr. Thomas Cowan talks about this in his book, Contagion Myth, that the introduction of radio, for example, introduced all this electromagnetic pollution, which then resulted in, quote, outbreaks, or the introduction of 5G. Mobile phone towers and other forms of electromagnetic radiation,
high voltage power lines, etc., that with each new introduction, and as you're talking about chemical exposure now, toxic chemicals, in some cases radioisotopes that are dumped in these grounds, all of these cause different forms of sickness.
Sometimes they are clustered in the areas where the toxins have been dumped.
But virology is a really convenient narrative to blame all of this.
On the people.
It's your fault for exposing somebody else, but to deny all the chemicals and then to use this to encourage people to line up and get vaccinated, which kills some of the people.
Oh, and sickens many of them.
Yes.
From the COVID shot, we know close to 40,000 reported dead into the VAERS system, into the Vaccine Adverse Events Response Database.
They admit to 40,000.
Have you ever shared OpenVers with your readers?
Yeah, yeah.
OpenVers.
Yeah, OpenVers.
But the projections from people like Ed Dowd talk about, you know, like 1.5 million Americans likely killed from these vaccines.
I believe that.
Or accelerated.
There's so many people dying of cancers that came back.
Yes.
Cancers that came back.
I believe Jane McLevy was one of them, the brilliant, famous labor union organizer who I knew when she was 19. And many people, my friend Chris McGregor recently died of a cardiovascular event at age 65. I know that he was injected multiple times.
Another person I know died young of a cardiovascular event.
This is what is going on.
And they can't be connected once years have gone by.
None of that stuff is eligible to go into the VAERS system.
Right.
It has to be an immediate response.
But this is, we are talking about what will be one of the, you know, this viral virology narrative is the greatest science lie in history.
I mean, by far.
And it's used.
To harm people.
And it's used to deceive people.
It's used to control people.
The lockdowns.
The masks.
It's going to be used for the digital ID. The whole virus narrative.
And this is why I have absolutely no tolerance for all these limited hangouts.
They're like, well, they give you some good information, but then you press them on the virus and they're like, well, I can't really talk about that.
Maybe not.
On Monday they caucused with Tom Cowan.
On Tuesday they caucused with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And this is the gray area that is going to facilitate whatever the digital ID is.
The digital ID is connected to vaccine record.
The vaccine record is necessitated by the claim of a virus.
That's how important it is to get the virus issue right.
And the beauty of it is the work has been done.
We do not need to start our own investigation from scratch.
All you need to do is read the essay, A Farewell to Virology by Mark Bailey.
I'll move that show right to the top of my feed on Planet Waves FM as soon as we're done with this so that you can see.
That'll be right on top.
And that is like a...
30,000, 40,000-word paper that breaks down the entire history.
And from the get-go, they have not been able to establish this.
And the Baileys Channel, I don't know if you know these people, but they're fantastic presenters.
The show's like Watching Lassie.
Every show has the same plot.
Take a disease blamed on a virus.
Go back and look to validate the claim of the virus.
Come up empty-handed.
There's nothing.
They fake their data.
Back to the very first study on viruses, the tobacco mosaic virus.
They never found a virus in the tobacco mosaic virus.
They never found a polio virus.
They killed those poor monkeys by injecting the spinal tissue of other monkeys into their brains.
But I want to make a distinction here also.
And I want your reaction as well.
But, for example, what's called malaria.
From mosquitoes, that involves bacteria that we can see, right?
That's different.
It's a protozoa, right?
Yeah, you're correct.
It's a protozoa.
And also, like, fungi.
Like, we can see fungi.
I mean, I have a laboratory.
I have a microscope.
I can look at it.
It's wild, right?
You can see molds.
You can see mold spores.
You can see fungi.
Like, those things are real.
You can see them and you can isolate them.
And you can buy laboratory standards that consist of nothing but that thing.
When I, in my lab, when I tried to buy a laboratory standard of SARS-CoV-2, did you know?
No, seriously.
I know.
I've been down this road.
Yeah.
You could not buy one.
You could not buy one.
It's not really CRM. No, it's not CRM. Right.
Certified reference material.
Right.
There's no such thing that exists in the world of virology.
I found out, to my great shock, they do not exist.
Yeah.
It's wild.
Well, that's because they don't have any.
They never had any.
They never will have any.
They're doing a very good job of perpetuating a fear.
But now we have to go to the spiritual level on this.
Eventually, this ceases to be a biological question, and it becomes a spiritual question.
So the question is, A, what's the appeal of the virus?
But maybe we can have the talk on digital conditions.
Maybe you're familiar with my thesis that all of COVID was driven by digital conditions, by which I don't mean just a metagenomic transcript that created the non-existent virus.
I don't mean the PCR. All those are AI tools or molecular computer-based tools.
But rather, the people were persuadable because their sense of self and their sense of being...
And the sense of the strength of their own bodies had been so chopped up by exposure to digital conditions that when someone came along and said there's going to be a virus that's going to get you all, it was like going into a room full of people high on acid and telling them there was a demon that was going to come and steal their souls.
They would certainly be frightened if you said that.
Yeah, no, people fell right for it.
But it was also, I think, a lot of people, since we're going into the spiritual realm here, I think a lot of people crave an authority figure in their lives, right?
Like, maybe they had daddy issues or mommy issues or whatever, and they just loved to still live as children, but they wanted government to tell them it was all going to be okay if they just obeyed.
All you have to do is obey, do what you're told, and then you're going to be fine.
Turns out if you obeyed, you might be dead by now.
Yeah.
You know, so obedience is actually a death wish.
Yeah, so there you go.
So there's that kind of an issue, and digital makes people more susceptible to tribalism.
True.
Tribal mentality.
But then the virus becomes everyone's excuse for why they're sick.
Yeah.
So they're doing the same thing that the New York State Health Department did.
They'll be sick and they'll say, well, it's a virus.
It has nothing to do with the fact that they may not be sleeping or they live on hot pockets or whatever else they may do, how they may live.
They may be stressed out and unhappy.
Blame it on a virus.
And so there's a victimization mentality that surrounds all discussions of the virus.
But that's brilliant because there is, in so many humans today, there is this willingness to sort of offshore responsibility for your life, right?
So they want to say, well, some external factor is in charge of my condition, not my choices.
And yet I see these people, you know, they go to the grocery store, Toxic laundry detergent, toxic foods, toxic substances, and then they go to the doctor and the doctor will tell them, well, there's nothing you could have done to stop cancer.
It's just magical.
It just spontaneously happened.
I'm like, aren't you the people that believe in cause and effect and strict scientific thinking, but you say cancer happens without cause?
Without cause?
Really?
Because that's not a scientific pillar, is it?
No.
No, there's no effect without some cause.
And I realize that digital conditions, there's a lot of people, no cause and effect exists, the Beatles never wrote a single song.
But, in fact, when you have an effect, something created, something or combination of factors created that effect.
There's no getting around that.
Can you identify them?
Maybe some you can identify.
Some you can't.
For example, with chemicals like dioxin, there's a lot of receptor mediation that goes on.
And so it partly depends upon the condition of the person or the animal.
There's greater and lesser susceptibility.
I mean, honestly, even though the cancer rate is pretty high, I'm really amazed at the resilience of the human body being exposed to all the chemicals that it's exposed to in this time.
And most people are still up walking around.
I mean, doesn't that ever amaze you, like how bad it is, but people are still up and walking around?
Well, the human body is incredibly resilient, that's for sure.
You know, it's designed to self-repair.
But I'm struck by the mass hysteria effect of all of this.
So, you know, think about like the Salem witch trials, you know, and there have been documented cases of so-called outbreaks that were just sort of like a shared hysteria.
Like, you know, schools of children where like one student started shivering and shaking and had convulsions and then suddenly like 20 other students had convulsions.
And it was like, you know, your mind is making it real, everybody.
Your mind is making it real.
And then when the media comes along and says, you're all going to die, you know, from COVID if you don't get a vaccine.
A lot of people, they're so mentally weak that those Jedi mind tricks work on them.
They don't even have to be mentally weak.
So I'll tell you that the first document listed in the chronology, I'm the author of the chronology.
Would you be kind enough to link to that when we come to time for linking?
Give me the URL. We'll link it, yeah.
So I authored, and I'll see if I can send you this document.
But the first document listed in a chronology...
Of COVID, which goes back to 2006, is a memo from the Department of Homeland Security, July 5, 2006, about mass psychogenic illness.
There you go.
Can I put this in the, is there a way to message this to you?
Send it to me after the interview and I'll have my producer put it in the description.
Okay, so it's...
Wednesday, July 5, 2006, for official use only, one of those UFO documents, fear of terrorist attack could trigger mass psychogenic illness.
Wow, psychogenic, huh?
Yeah, it's called mass psychogenic illness.
And they give four examples of mass psychogenic illness, one in Japan, one in California, and then I think two from Eastern Europe, where the mere mention of a toxin...
On the news, in one case, sent people all over Tokyo into hospitals.
Whoa.
Hundreds of people responding to hospitals when they were nowhere near the train station where there was supposed to be some kind of a toxic release.
And they were sent with symptoms.
They went with symptoms presenting.
That's how powerful psychogenic illness is.
And then in California, some wacko went into the bank and like sprayed hairspray or something in the bank and said, you know, this is poison.
We're going to kill you all.
And there was nothing.
They found no trace of any known toxin, but people got symptoms from this.
So this is a study in mass psychogenic illness.
It's described as a national security threat.
Thank you, Julian Assange, for digging up this.
I found this on WikiLeaks.
Frankly, I don't even know how I found it on WikiLeaks, but that's where it is on WikiLeaks.
So let's talk about what's required for this mass psychogenic illness to become.
One news report.
But I mean, psychologically, in the person, there's a requirement that they believe in false authority.
Like, they have to believe the authority.
Their mind won't make it real.
The authority was saying that there was no chemical.
They were just having a response.
The authority didn't say, in the California instance, nobody reported that it was a toxin.
They said it was a wacko who said he had some poison.
Oh, so they just believed the wacko.
That's all it took.
Yeah, that's what Matt said.
And in Tokyo, I was not there.
But there was a release.
Somebody sprayed sarin in, like, one train station.
Yeah, the sarin gas attack.
Yeah, that's kind of famous in Tokyo.
Yeah, but the thing, the part that's not known is that people were going to the hospital all over the city of Tokyo, and they might have been 15 miles away from the sarin gas attack, and nobody was trying to convince them that they were under any form of threat.
To the contrary, they were saying, oh, the incident was way over on the other part of town.
And the thing with that, it only took one day's news reports to get that effect.
People are very susceptible to this.
The mind-body link is a strong link.
Yeah, but I would say that people are programmed by media to be that susceptible, right?
Like, this is not a normal human condition.
Well, yes.
Thank you.
Exactly.
Yeah, and electronic media makes them weak and weak and susceptible.
But you could find, it was the dancing plague.
Did you ever read about this?
The dancing plague?
Where there's mysterious conditions in Europe and people would like, there's a word for it, like hypotroposk, and they would dance for hours and hours.
Wait a second.
Contagious dancing behavior?
Is that what?
Well, that proves virology right there.
Spencer Stevens dug this out.
Okay.
Yes.
One of the greatest Planet Waves reporters in the history of the company.
Dancing Plague.
It's famous.
You look it up, it'll come right up in Wikipedia.
It's true.
We're going to have to look at that one.
Dancing Plague.
I'm familiar with fainting goats.
We need that now.
I call for, as your president, I call for a Dancing Plague.
If I am the chairman of HHS... I will insist that we let out that we open up that bottle and let the dancing plague out of the jar.
Trump is already dancing.
He's doing the chicken dance or whatever with his hands.
That could go viral.
Well, it kind of has gone viral.
It has gone viral.
Eurythmia.
That's not really getting into it completely spaced out.
It needs more convulsions, I think, is the thing.
Convulsion dancing.
Well, we could start the whole thing right here.
Whoever he may be.
Okay.
But the point is that people's minds are ridiculously susceptible to suggestion.
In other words, mass hypnosis.
I mean, another way to say psychogenic illness is mass hypnosis.
Yeah, that's fair.
In essence, right?
Yes, but they have biological symptoms.
But hypnosis also, I mean, people can make it real.
Look, I mean, I wonder if a hypnotist is ever convinced someone they have hives, and the hives aren't actually meant.
No, I've read about that, like poison ivy, like fake poison ivy.
Yeah, and their skin would blister as if it was poison.
No, there's another famous experiment, I don't recall who did it, but where a hypnotist would tell people that they were about to be touched by a burning cigarette, right?
But the person was blindfolded.
But it was just a pencil eraser back when we had pencils.
I would wince, too.
Yeah, but there would be a burn blister on some people.
That's the thing.
They would make it real.
There would be a burn blister.
So why don't we just acknowledge that this is an important thing about the human phenomenon?
Yeah, but imagine, right, the power if we can harness this for the positive, right?
Yes, which is why I want to emphasize that people appear to be incredibly resilient to dioxin, but not all of them.
That's the problem.
Good point.
If we're talking about an actual chemical release, it doesn't ever affect the population in an even-handed way.
It always affects the weakest people first and worst.
Which is then why you need to take care of yourself.
Really, I would say.
Well, you know, it's really interesting because I tend to dismiss conventional thinking and just power through things with willpower sometimes.
And I did have this accident where I almost lost my index finger like two years ago or something in a ranching accident.
And I mean, the whole thing was almost...
Gone, but the bone was still intact.
And I decided not to go to the emergency room.
I decided not to have any stitches.
I decided it didn't hurt.
And it never hurt.
Literally, I had zero pain the whole time.
And it healed back.
I used lion's mane mushroom and things that I believe in.
I believe in nutrition.
So I didn't have to convince myself.
I know lion's mane mushroom regrows nerves, whatever.
But if you were to look at my finger today, there's no scar.
There's no damage.
There's a little bit of a lack of mobility in one of the joints.
But I guarantee you, if I went to a doctor, a surgeon, and said, do you see any evidence that this finger was almost completely severed?
They would say, no, that never happened.
I guarantee you, if I could show you a close-up, I would.
Well, you are a brave person, and I will say that.
I mean, that's one of the few things that would get me into an ER. But, you know, maybe not.
But also, that is some testimony to your healing abilities.
That's good street creds, Mike.
Eric, the thing is, see, this gets to the positive power of belief, right?
I'm glad we're talking about this because, you know, I've studied tissue regeneration.
And we know there are so many other animals, like salamanders, that can just regrow not just their tails, but there are creatures that can regrow entire limbs.
And even in the human body, you can regrow your liver.
If you lose a third of your liver, it grows back.
And we're regrowing the hippocampus region of the brain all our lives.
So, just to have the understanding.
See, this is the power of belief.
The way I demonstrated it was, I know I can grow back nerves.
That's not even a question in my mind.
Whereas a person who doesn't believe that, their body probably wouldn't do that.
You know, the mind makes it real.
Good and bad.
Yeah.
And we need more testing of this.
Of course, we don't want to be chomping people's fingers off.
No, no.
I'm not suggesting.
Let's not try this at home.
No.
But, in fact, I told people, if this happens to you, you should go to the emergency room.
I said that.
But I said, there's no way I'm going to the emergency room.
Because they're just going to want to jab me.
Yeah.
You know?
This was during the COVID years.
I'm like, no way.
Right.
But the power of...
I mean, there are legit stories of miraculous healing, miraculous strength, mothers saving children by lifting cars.
I mean, the supernatural is not supernatural.
It's natural.
I mean, right?
The supernatural is all around us all the time.
Course in miracles.
Principles of miracles.
Right.
Miracles are natural.
If they don't occur, something's gone wrong.
And manifestation is natural.
It's normal.
It's normal for your consciousness to imprint something in the universe.
At least I believe that.
What do you think?
Well, we're here.
How did that happen?
Yeah, right.
We have no explanation for that.
So we certainly have manifested this whole experience in some way.
I don't think it's a freak accident.
No, I hope not.
It would be a lot of energy going into a freak accident.
But what do our viewers take from this?
Here we are talking about some pretty wild topics that are clearly not mainstream, but our audience is very open-minded, very educated, and they understand that a lot of this knowledge has been withheld from us.
But Eric, how do we make this practical?
What can they do with what we've talked about here?
Well, I'm not entirely sure, but I would say that I think it's important to live with a sense of purpose for your own life and to do the things you know you need to do.
We talk a lot about doing things we want to do, but I think most people really need to do the things that they need to do.
For themselves and to realize that your life on this planet is a fleeting experience, certainly for the planet and shorten up for us.
And you can connect with why you came here and live that out despite all these trappings that seem to be around you.
And I think at the beginning you do it a little bit every day.
And as far as the little bit and a little bit more, as far as the digital experience.
It really is about bringing love into the dream.
McLuhan said this more and more throughout his career as a philosopher, which is that we do need to understand that we are completely under the thrall of electrical media and we're becoming digital people who believe we can catch a digital virus.
And the only antidote to being in the digital environment is to bring creativity into the digital environment, to cease to be a consumer.
Or to cut back the consumption and to bring your original mark, something beautiful about you or life.
I don't mean sharing cat videos, which I love to watch, but I really mean doing something that is yours and all yours and bringing that to your digital experience so that you're giving something into the environment rather than just letting it deplete you.
And turn you into a kind of a numb zombie in a trance.
You come out of the trance when you become an artist.
I completely agree with you.
And there you have a keyboard in your background.
And I write a lot of music.
I have since I was six.
And it's perfect.
I actually have a new song that I'm going to attach on the end of our interview here.
It's called Do What We Say.
I am so happy to hear you're a musician.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, music's been part of my life since childhood.
And it's the most joyful thing that I do is creating music.
It's because it's the expression of humanity.
It's that creativity.
It's channeling the cosmos, right?
The muse.
Yeah.
But I wrote this song about the COVID years.
It's called Do What We Say.
And then how to resist that, how to learn to think for yourself.
You know what?
I'll send you an mp3 of the song.
Of course, I use AI augmentation for the music and the vocals, but as a musician, I can do things with AI that a non-musician perhaps would not be able to get out of the AI engine, right?
So I think you'll love this song.
I'll put it on the end of this interview here for people to enjoy.
It's called Do What We Say, and it's tongue-in-cheek.
I just want to thank you for this conversation.
We started off with, you know, fires in California.
We ended up with the universe through consciousness, you know.
So that's a pretty good, pretty good range, huh?
Yeah.
Good stuff.
Yeah.
And, you know, but we're not, this is why we're the alternative media.
We get to think about things like this.
That's true.
Mike, thank you so much.
Thank you.
And hello to everyone.
I know a lot of people, they're like, oh, I know that person.
They see me on your channel and they, you know, sometimes listen to my channel.
To those of you who are already with Planet Waves listeners.
Yeah, planetwaves.fm, correct?
Planetwaves.fm.
Okay, here it is.
Part of the Pacifica Network.
New program coming Tuesday.
Okay, perfect.
Planetwaves.fm is where people can find you.
And Eric, I just want to thank you for your, you know, just really the fun and informative attitude that you bring.
We always have a great time talking about anything.
And I love what we covered today.
So thank you for your time.
Good.
Yep, my pleasure.
Anytime, Mike.
All right.
Thank you so much and take care.
And for those of you watching, I hope you enjoyed this conversation with Eric Coppolino there from planetwaves.fm.
And feel free to share this interview on other platforms.
You have our permission to do so.
And you can check out more broadcasts, podcasts, interviews, and coming up, some pretty awesome AI augmented music at brighteon.com.
And yeah, I'll put on the end here, do what we say.
And I'll have a music video done in a couple of weeks for you that goes along with that, which is going to be like robotic humans with puppet strings going through the motions of life.
It's going to be really hilarious.
But anyway, enjoy the song.
Do what we say.
Take care.
Don't stand too close.
Don't speak out loud.
Don't think too much.
Just do what we say.
Don't be yourself.
You must obey.
Don't question anything.
Do what we say.
Do what we say.
You trusted them to have your interests at heart.
They kept truth buried, obscured in the dark.
Promises whispered, but hiding deceit.
The lies overwhelming, the truth incomplete.
They've stolen your future by clouding your mind.
Dark spells place you in a sorcerer's mind.
Demanded obedience, feigned your consent.
Pummeled your soul till your spirit was bent Don't stand too close Don't speak out loud Don't think too much Just do what we say Don't be yourself You must obey Don't question anything Do what we say Do what we say Just do what we say
They weaponized everything to crush your soul's freedom Anyone who spoke out, they cut them and bleed them They grabbed them and jabbed them The hospitals had them Ventilated to death while the coroners tagged them But you didn't buy it You saw through the mist You dared to resist like your spirit insists You won't be dismissed Refused to be blind Eyes wide open for the very first time Don't stand too close Don't speak out loud Don't think too much
Don't speak out loud.
Don't think too much.
Just do what we say.
Just do what we say Don't be yourself You must obey Don't question anything Do what we say Do what we say Just do what we say You were born with the spirit within you God gave you his breath of life
Don't be yourself.
You must obey.
Don't question anything.
Do what we say.
Do what we say.
Just do what we say.
You were born with the spirit within you.
God gave you his breath of life to begin you.
to begin you You know you're alive when you continue to grow From the cosmic menu of knowledge and then you Don't stand too close.
You know you're alive when you continue to grow.
From the cosmic menu of knowledge and then you.
Share what you've learned with the world at large.
Set off knowledge explosions like a depth charge.
So much potential that's hidden within you.
Unlock the future and reach for the stars.
To the stars.
Don't stand too close.
Don't stand too close.
Don't speak out loud.
Don't think too much.
Just do what we say.
What we say Don't be yourself You must obey Don't question anything Do what we say What we say Do what we say Do what we say Just do what we say Now stand up tall And speak out loud
Unleash your touch and do what you say.
Just be yourself.
Do not obey.
Question everything.
