	All right, welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News for Wednesday, July 16th, 2025.
	I'm Mike Adams.
	Thank you for joining me today.
	And I've got a featured interview at the end of the broadcast here with UK Dr. Malik.
	It's Ahmed Malik from the UK.
	He stayed up late to do an interview with me.
	And we had a great conversation.
	Really wonderful.
	He is, of course, not just a health freedom champion, but a truth champion.
	He's a board-certified neurosurgeon, but does not engage in the practice of surgery anymore for reasons that will become obvious.
	I mean, you know, once you start telling the truth in the UK, yeah, you're not invited to continue in the medical system.
	So anyway, Dr. Malik's interview is coming up at the end of today's broadcast.
	Now, we've got a number of key topics to cover here today.
	The GOP in the House voted to block the Epstein files release.
	I believe every member of the GOP voted against the release and every member of the Democrats or every member that voted of the Democrats voted in favor of releasing the files.
	In other words, the GOP voted to block the release.
	All 211 who voted voted to block the release of the Epstein files.
	So that's kind of embarrassing that the GOP is all in for sweeping pedophilia under the rug and effectively excusing child sex trafficking, which is a horrifying crime against children.
	So what the heck is going on, huh?
	Well, maybe we'll talk more about that later.
	General Michael Flynn commented on this and he said, quote, this is why I said the Epstein affair is not going away anytime soon.
	Get ahead of this.
	We want to support every bit of your fight to save America, none more than me.
	Children will not be abused by anyone, he says, in all caps.
	No category nor any class of people should ever get away with abusing children.
	Enough is enough.
	Accountability is coming either here on earth or at the gates of hell, which is where I will be waiting for those who abuse a child.
	Yeah, indeed.
	I do appreciate General Flynn's attitude on all of this.
	I agree with him.
	He says, for leader John Thune and Speaker Johnson, get your troops in line immediately.
	So this is embarrassing that the entire GOP voted to basically cover up pedophilia.
	Can you imagine what the Democrats are going to do with this in the midterms?
	I mean, every midterm ad is going to start out, you know, my opponent supported pedophiles.
	What?
	My opponent voted to bury the truth about children being trafficked and abused.
	What?
	Right?
	I mean, again, every campaign ad is going to be like that in the midterms.
	Just wait.
	You'll see it.
	Like, what's wrong with the GOP right now?
	Are they committing political suicide?
	I think so.
	That's what I tweeted out.
	And Trump now said in the last day, he said he doesn't know why people have any interest in the Epstein files.
	He's got no idea.
	No, seriously, that's what he said.
	Check this out.
	Here's the video of Trump saying that.
	Mr. President, I know you've urged people to move on, but I'm curious, why do you think your supporters in particular have been so interested in the Epstein story?
	They're so upset about how it's been handled.
	I don't understand why they would be so interested.
	He's dead for a long time.
	He was never a big factor in terms of life.
	I don't understand what the interest or what the fascination is.
	I really don't.
	And the credible information's been given.
	Don't forget, we went through years of the Mueller witch hunt and all of the different things to steal Dossier, which was all fake.
	All that information was fake.
	But I don't understand why the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody.
	It's pretty boring stuff.
	It's sordid, but it's boring.
	And I don't understand why it keeps going.
	I think really only pretty bad people, including fake news, want to keep something like that going.
	But credible information, let them give it.
	Anything that's credible, I would say let them have it.
	So Trump doesn't know why anybody would be interested in the Epstein files, even though, of course, Jeffrey Epstein ran the largest blackmail campaign for the deep state intelligence communities, MI6, the CIA, and Mossad, all three, mostly Mossad, that compromise hundreds of powerful people, some of whom run nations or are in the Senate or are the heads of powerful corporations.
	Trump doesn't realize why that would be of interest to anybody.
	Really, really.
	What do you say to that?
	Of course the American people want to know why their leaders keep voting for Israel first and America last.
	That's what people want to know.
	People want to know why when Trump himself campaigned on peace, keeps pushing us deeper and deeper into wars in the Middle East and with Russia.
	And we'll talk about the secondary tariffs here and the Russia, the threat against Russia here shortly.
	But people want to know why nobody has been held accountable among those who were raping children and are still in positions of power.
	People want to know why those who flew on the Lolita Express were never held accountable for their actions or those who visited Epstein Island were never held accountable.
	I mean, you know, for Trump to say that just shows his shocking disconnect with his own base, not to mention the rest of America.
	And sadly, what Trump is doing here and what the GOP is doing is they are handing Democrats the midterms, I mean, massive sweeping victories in the midterms.
	That's what Trump and the GOP are doing right now.
	Whether they realize it or not, they are setting the stage for what Steve Bannon predicted.
	I think he said 40 seats would switch to the Democrats in the midterms, something like that.
	40, maybe 50.
	I don't remember the exact number that Steve said, but it was in that range.
	And it's hard to argue with that.
	And that's why Steve Bannon is all over this issue, too.
	This is insane.
	You've got to get in front of this.
	And Trump can either be the hero who releases the Epstein files, or he can go down in history as the failed president who buried them to protect powerful people while committing political suicide for the GOP.
	And if the GOP loses badly in the midterms, and Trump is on course to make that happen, then think about it.
	When the Democrats control the House, what are they going to do?
	They're going to impeach Trump again.
	Obviously, they're going to impeach Trump again.
	And the GOP is going to sit there and do nothing about it, just like last time.
	Because the GOP, they just, they love to be losers for some reason.
	They love to be losers.
	As I say, GOP, what does it stand for?
	Got other priorities.
	Not America.
	Not political victory.
	Not transparency.
	No.
	Got other priorities.
	What are those?
	Oh, passing legal immunity for pesticide corporations.
	Those are their priorities.
	You've got to make sure that pesticide companies can mass poison the American people without facing lawsuits for all the damage and death that they cause.
	Yeah.
	Because Bayer is getting all torn up with all these lawsuits after they acquired Monsanto.
	So I would imagine that after the GOP loses 30, 40, 50 seats in the midterms, Trump's also going to be on video saying, well, I don't know why anybody would care that we lost 50 seats.
	I don't know why the American people wouldn't vote for Republicans.
	Well, because every ad on television put a pedophile label on their face.
	Think about it.
	You know, this is actually looking a lot like Trump's first term.
	Remember, in his first term, for the first two years, they had the White House, the House, and the Senate.
	And then they lost the midterms badly.
	And their attorney general, in the first term, Jeff Sessions, remember?
	He was controlled by the deep state, and he did nothing but stall, just like Pam Bondi right now.
	Nothing but stall.
	And then, two years into his administration, what happened?
	Democrats became the majority in the House and they started impeachment proceedings immediately.
	And that defined the rest of Trump's term.
	Just slogging through endless distractions from the Democrats, who, of course, were fabricating the steel dossier, like Trump was just saying there, and other false accusations against Trump.
	Yeah, it was all fabricated, but it had the intended effect of blocking Trump from getting anything done.
	So nothing else got done.
	And during the Biden administration, we were all told that, well, Trump had learned his lesson, that, yeah, he made some mistakes in his first term.
	He allowed some people to come into his cabinet, some people around him in the White House who weren't really loyal to Trump or even loyal to America.
	And that's not going to happen in Trump's second term.
	We were told that this time Trump would pick the right people.
	And so what do we have now?
	A do-nothing Pambandi.
	Yeah?
	And a Susie Wiles who totally controls Trump and makes sure that he puts Israel first.
	Yeah, look, it's the same swamp as the first term.
	And Trump is isolated clearly from his own voters.
	He's isolated from the news.
	He's isolated from reality.
	That's why he doesn't understand that Jeffrey Epstein will bury Trump.
	I mean, Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself, but he could kill Trump's second term.
	Think about that.
	All right, let's shift gears now.
	I've got a different story for you here.
	First thing I want to mention is a story from CNBC.
	Central banks are increasingly buying gold from local mines as prices surge.
	So this is key to understand.
	Central banks are buying gold directly from mines.
	According to the World Gold Council and its central bank survey, 19 out of 36 central banks that responded to the survey said they're buying gold directly from domestic small-scale gold miners in the local currency.
	So central banks, okay, buying gold directly.
	This means that these purchases are not noted on the typical gold or metals exchanges.
	So Comex, you're not going to see these purchases on Comex.
	You're not going to see these in the market.
	These are basically off-the-books acquisitions of gold.
	And it's being done as a way for central banks to sort of quietly acquire large amounts of gold at a discount from the market price.
	So whatever you see happening publicly in terms of gold purchases doesn't even tell the full story.
	There's a lot more going on privately.
	Now, another story I want to mention here, this one from CNBC, Westinghouse plans to build 10 large nuclear reactors in the U.S., according to the CEO who just made this announcement in a meeting with Trump.
	So the Westinghouse company, which went bankrupt, I think they came out of bankruptcy in 2018.
	Yeah, 2018.
	They went bankrupt due to cost overruns on previous nuclear power plant construction.
	They say they're going to build or start building 10 large nuclear reactors in the U.S. by 2030.
	That's not far away for nuclear power plants.
	They take a long time to plan and build and get all the permits and all that stuff.
	So 10 large nuclear reactors?
	This reactor is called the AP 1000.
	It generates enough electricity to power 750,000 homes.
	So if you want to know the actual number, I looked it up.
	It's 1,100 megawatts.
	That's a lot.
	That's a lot of power.
	Okay.
	10 of these reactors are going to be built across the U.S. It's supposed to add all this economic value, of course, which it will.
	This is being done in conjunction with Trump's executive orders that are giving preferential treatment to nuclear power and also big tech.
	Big tech needs power in order to fund or power their data centers for AI research and innovation.
	So AI data centers require enormous amounts of power.
	You know, AI can be very smart, but it's not that efficient compared to human brain power.
	An AI system will consume orders of magnitude more power than the human brain, especially at scale when you're doing model training and things like that.
	And I've even commented before that the only way that these data centers in Texas are going to even function is if somebody starts building nuclear power plants in Texas.
	Now, Westinghouse's announcement here, it doesn't say where those plants are going to be built.
	I'm sure we'll find out soon.
	I'm sure at least one of them must be in Texas.
	Maybe more than one, but I guess we will find out.
	Westinghouse is a company with a history of inefficiency and cost overruns.
	By the way, it went bankrupt before because one of its nuclear power plants apparently came in $18 billion over budget.
	That's $18 billion over the budget.
	I mean, what was the budget?
	Like $10 billion?
	I don't know.
	Man, $18 billion over budget?
	That's insane.
	So Westinghouse announced a partnership with Google to use AI tools to try to make the construction of its new power plants efficient.
	Well, okay, you don't need AI to be efficient, it turns out.
	You just have to stop being lazy and incompetent.
	But you know what they say about Westinghouse?
	There's no project that Westinghouse can't make cost 10 times more and take 10 times as long.
	That's true.
	That's true.
	However, I am pro-nuclear power in the interim.
	Of course, I'm an advocate of cold fusion, which is a safer form of power.
	But cold fusion called low energy nuclear reactions, Leonard, is not as mature.
	It's still in the early application phase, and it doesn't have the high-intensity heat output that regular fission nuclear power has.
	So cold fusion is going to be more for small-scale energy production.
	Initially, cold fusion will be used to heat water in boilers to provide heat for buildings, military bases, and universities and hospitals and things like that.
	That's actually cold fusion's first application.
	It'll just be integrated into boilers to heat water.
	That's it.
	So we're probably many years away before cold fusion can be commercialized into large-scale power production.
	Meanwhile, hot fusion is apparently never going to happen, even though all these governments keep spending tens of billions of dollars and building these powerful magnetic fields.
	We have to create the, you know, the hovering plasma to have more energy.
	You know, and we did it.
	We had plasma for four billionths of a second.
	Whoa, you know, and they give themselves awards for that.
	Apparently hot fusion is never going to work without a completely new approach.
	I think they're trying to make it work by the year, I don't know, 2070 or something.
	Who cares?
	The only really practical, scalable nuclear energy right now is conventional fission-based nuclear power plants.
	So in the interim, I am an advocate of fission-based nuclear power.
	And it's far more practical than solar or wind.
	And you know why?
	You know why?
	Very simple.
	Because the wind doesn't blow when you want it to, and you can't turn up the wind when you need more power from wind.
	Same thing with solar, right?
	Solar only works a few hours a day, not even 12, not even half the day, because the sun is too much of an angle.
	And solar power doesn't work on cloudy days and rainy days, et cetera, et cetera.
	And also at night, Which is kind of a big deal.
	Nuclear power can be scaled up and down based on grid demand.
	So can coal and natural gas, obviously.
	And right now, it's fossil fuels that tend to power grids in North America.
	And it's fossil fuels that are scalable.
	So when solar and wind die, like what happened in Spain recently and the whole Spain power grid cratered, took the whole country offline, that was because of a solar farm.
	Good luck.
	But gas and coal can be scaled up as you need more energy.
	Well, so can nuclear.
	So I actually think that nuclear power is practical.
	And if operated correctly, it's very safe.
	It also, of course, for the greenies out there, nuclear power has zero carbon emissions.
	It does produce a very tiny amount of nuclear waste material, which is so small.
	I mean, it's infinitesimally small compared to the amount of burial land that we have in America.
	I mean, it doesn't even...
	I think all the nuclear material, the nuclear fission waste material that's ever been generated in the United States can be buried in something the size of a tennis court, maybe 100 feet deep or something.
	It's not very big.
	And it's also in that state, it's not highly radioactive.
	You know, the half-life of uranium-235 is very long compared to other radioisotopes like cesium-137, for example, or for that matter, you know, iodine-131, which is only seven days.
	So uranium-235, you know, burying spent nuclear fuel is actually not a big risk factor environmentally, despite what the anti-nuclear protesters say.
	They are wrong on that point.
	In fact, all the mining that's needed to build solar farms is far more destructive to the earth than burying nuclear material by far.
	Of course, uranium has to be mined itself, but the amount of material that you need is a tiny fraction compared to solar or wind production.
	Nevertheless, there is always the risk of a meltdown event, which we saw in Fukushima.
	I think that was 2011, wasn't it?
	The tsunami that happened in Japan and then took out the power, the emergency backup power of the Fukushima power plant, which I think had six different reactors there.
	And I think one of them went into a total meltdown and then there was a massive cover-up.
	And we've still never been told the whole truth about that, shockingly, right?
	There was the Three Mile Island incident in the United States back in, what was that, 1979, was it, or 78?
	That was nothing.
	That was a tiny release of slightly radioactive water.
	I mean, compared to what we're dealing with today, that's nothing.
	So there really hasn't been a large-scale nuclear accident in North America.
	And clearly, America needs clean, scalable energy.
	So I'm all for building nuclear power plants if we can make sure that they have super reliable backup energy sources in order to run the coolant pumps and take those plants offline.
	Because in order to take them offline, it's a whole process, many hours that has to take place.
	I mean, I think you have to set these, I don't know what they're called, the buffer rods, you have to place them in between the fuel rods in order to stop the fission from taking place.
	I forgot what they're called.
	But you still need power to shut down a nuclear power plant.
	And that's what happened with Fukushima.
	They didn't have power because of the tsunami.
	So we got to make sure that nuclear power plants have super reliable backup power systems.
	And interestingly, there's a new technology for off-grid power that I think fits the bill for that, and it's called sodium ion.
	So sodium ion batteries are much safer, much more abundant than lithium-ion batteries, because sodium is a very common, obviously very common mineral.
	We can mine it right here in North America.
	Lithium mining, on the other hand, is very difficult.
	Lithium-ion batteries are combustible.
	And when they catch on fire, they burn and burn and burn.
	Sodium ion does not do that.
	Very hard to burn sodium, it turns out.
	And also, sodium ion batteries can cycle many thousands of times, sometimes five, six, seven thousand cycles while maintaining at least 80% of their depth.
	So sodium ion backup power systems combined with online nuclear power generation that can scale up and down with the demands of the power grid, that actually makes a lot of sense.
	And, you know, Westinghouse is preparing to waste tens of billions of dollars in this process, of course.
	But what are you going to do when you're halfway done building the nuke plant and then Westinghouse says, well, we need another $10 billion?
	What do you do?
	You sell another bond.
	That's what actually happens.
	A state was, we'll just sell another bond, raise another $10 billion and have another nuke plant.
	Or, you know, the investment company sells another bond.
	And there you go.
	And just remember that what comes out of the top of the cooling towers of a nuclear power plant is not radioactive material.
	It's just water vapor.
	It's literally water vapor as a result of all the steam generation.
	Now, of course, nuclear power plants consume a lot of fresh water in that process, but they release it back into the air.
	So they're not burning the water, in other words.
	They're just borrowing it.
	But if you want to get people to flip out on a topic, try to have a rational conversation with somebody about nuclear power.
	And almost nobody is rational about it.
	They either have these irrational fears from Three Mile Island or Fukushima or Chernobyl, which is a completely different design.
	Or they have these gross misunderstandings about how nuclear power generation works or what's coming out of the top of the cooling towers or what is a containment building?
	Look, the average person, come on, they can't even...
	Integers are mysteries to most people.
	Don't even get into fractions or decimals.
	Give me a break.
	You want to try to explain how nuclear power plants work to the average American?
	Yeah, good luck.
	It's like trying to teach a pigeon how to play chess.
	All right, let's shift gears.
	And I've got another special topic for you here today.
	This is Trump threatening Russia with secondary tariffs in 50 days.
	Yippee, Trump has threatened Russia with secondary tariffs, 100% secondary tariffs on countries that do business with Russia or purchase energy from Russia.
	That if Russia doesn't sign some peace agreement that Trump is demanding, and it's not even clear what the terms of that are yet because the last negotiations that I think happened in Istanbul didn't really turn up, you know, obvious solutions.
	So Trump has just lashed out verbally, said in 50 days, if Russia doesn't declare peace or something or sign something, that the U.S. is going to slap 100% secondary tariffs on the countries that do business with Russia.
	Okay.
	So you all know what tariffs are.
	That is, you know, straight tariffs, direct tariffs, like a tariff on China would be that when China exports goods to the United States, there's a surcharge on those goods as they enter the United States before U.S. customs will release them to the marketplace.
	And then those fees are paid by the Chinese manufacturers, right?
	And then, of course, the prices go up in the U.S. And so ultimately, U.S. consumers end up paying a lot more for those Chinese products.
	So that would be a tariff on China.
	Trump cannot put a tariff on Russia because it's already illegal for anybody to import anything from Russia.
	So, you know, because that's all been cut off and Russia's been cut off of the SWIFT system, etc.
	So Trump wants to punish Russia more, or at least threaten to punish them.
	So he's announcing secondary tariffs.
	Now, so secondary tariffs means you're going to put tariffs on countries that do business with Russia.
	So now you're talking about one step removed from Russia.
	Now, we need to know what this means.
	Which nations specifically is Trump talking about slapping 100% tariffs on?
	And Lindsey Graham wants it to be 500% tariffs.
	I mean, Flimsey Graham, he should just announce, let's make it a gazillion percent tariff.
	I mean, it doesn't matter because as you'll see, none of this is going to matter anyway.
	So who buys the most energy from Russia?
	Okay, let's start there.
	Let's just go with, oh, I don't know.
	Oh, how about this?
	Let's go with the top four buyers of Russian energy.
	Okay.
	Who are they?
	China, India, Turkey, and the European Union.
	That's right, the EU.
	Now, Trump already slapped 30% tariffs on the EU just in the last few days, which is very frustrating because my company was trying to purchase a very large, expensive automation machine from Italy.
	This machine would have really seriously improved our efficiency and helped us keep prices down.
	It would have been part of our production line in our warehouse.
	And we were about ready to pull the trigger on the purchase, and then Trump announced this.
	And so 30% tariff makes that machine unaffordable.
	So unfortunately, we cannot purchase that machine at all because there is no such machine like that made in America.
	It doesn't exist.
	In fact, it's only made in Italy.
	It's like the Ferrari of the warehouse.
	Is Ferrari, is that, that's, that's an Italian brand, isn't it?
	I think it is.
	Anyway, yeah, pretty sure that is.
	I don't know.
	I'm not a car buff, so don't give me flack about that, please.
	But so Trump's tariffs just blocked us from being able to buy from Italy because it's a tariff on the EU.
	Well, now Trump wants to add another 100% onto the EU, which already has 30%.
	So imagine that if you're going to buy something from the EU, let's say 50 days from now, if Trump keeps his promise, you're going to pay 130% tariff plus the original price of the thing you're buying.
	So if you're buying something for 100K, right, you're going to pay, what, $230,000 for that thing.
	Woo.
	But let's go down the list.
	So China, India, Turkey, and then the EU.
	So Trump's going to slap 100% tariffs on China?
	Well, okay, let's start there.
	Because I wish this were Tuesday, because I would love to say this is Trump Taco Tuesday.
	Because you know what taco means when it comes to tariffs.
	You know Trump's taco name, right?
	Taco T-A-C-O.
	Trump always chickens out.
	I wish it were Taco Tuesday.
	Unfortunately, it's Taco Wednesday, which is not nearly as much fun.
	So Trump says he's going to put 100% tariffs on China because China's purchases account for about 43% of Russia's monthly exports in oil and energy.
	Okay?
	You got that?
	43%.
	So China's the number one buyer from Russia.
	China is also the number one buyer of energy out of Iran.
	Ah, that's important to know.
	All right.
	So if Trump puts 100% tariff on China, that's on top of the current tariff, which is already what?
	I've lost track.
	I'm pretty sure there's like a 20% surcharge because of the fentanyl issue.
	And then there's another tariff on China that's like 20% or 25%.
	So that's almost 50%.
	And then Trump's going to put 100 on that.
	So you're going to have 150% tariff from China.
	Basically, that's going to end trade with China.
	I mean, it's going to end exports from China.
	Well, this time, I'm not going to be fooled by Trump because when he announced this stuff in, what was it, early April?
	I thought he meant it.
	Silly me.
	And I was buying a bunch of extra Chinese-made hardware parts for my ranch.
	I've got like stacks of washers and bolts and nuts and like tractor parts and stuff.
	Cotter pins, you know.
	I don't regret it.
	I love having extra hardware, but I did buy extra pairs of shoes thinking that China was going to be totally cut off.
	Turns out the shoes that I really like that fit my feet are made in China, like almost all shoes.
	So I bought some extra pairs, right?
	And then Trump backed off of the Chinese tariffs a few weeks later.
	That's how he got the name, you know, Trump Taco Tuesday.
	But now he's saying we're going to slap 100% on China again.
	Well, this time I'm not going to run out and buy cotter pins and shoes.
	I don't think this is going to happen.
	That's my guess.
	This is just another negotiation tactic.
	It's another threat.
	I don't think, I mean, look, even when Trump tried this in April, what happened?
	What happened?
	The automobile manufacturers called the White House in a panic and they said, Trump, Trump, Trump, Taco Trump.
	We can't make cars, Trump.
	We can't make trucks.
	We need parts from China.
	We need neodymium magnets.
	It turns out Ford had to shut down its entire production line because it didn't have magnets from China.
	So Trump had to back down.
	Okay, okay.
	So we'll let you buy if you're a car maker.
	And it had to have all these exceptions.
	And then there were exceptions to the exceptions.
	And it became this total mess.
	The bottom line is U.S. companies cannot function without parts from China.
	And I even talked about this even in our operation.
	We have, for many of our health products, we have like the screw-on tops.
	We have the pump tops for the like personal care products, squeeze tubes and certain kind of special lids, like pop-open lids, little plastic lids.
	To my knowledge, those are not made in the USA.
	They're made in China.
	You know, somebody did contact me and said there's somebody in California that's making some of this stuff.
	I don't know all the details on that, but in terms of the whole product line, it's all made in China.
	So if Trump puts 130% tariff on China, U.S. manufacturing grinds to a halt.
	Okay, that's the first thing to recognize in this.
	The second nation, the second most prolific purchaser of oil from Russia is India.
	India is a U.S. ally.
	India is a very strong trading partner with the United States.
	Now, India, like China, is also a member of BRICS.
	And Trump is very unhappy with BRICS nations, too.
	He might slap another 100% on BRICS nations.
	200%.
	So what does India export to the United States that would be subjected to this new 100% tariff?
	Well, medical devices, face masks, sterile gloves, surgical tools, agricultural products, all kinds of spices and fruits and vegetables, rice, textiles.
	I'm looking this up.
	Automotive components, engine parts, transmission components, chemicals, petrochemicals.
	Also, I happen to know India exports a lot of nutritional supplements and essential oils and extracts of different plants.
	Actually, India is one of the world leaders in making plant extracts like curcumin, an extract from turmeric, for example, or EGCG from green tea.
	India has some of the best scientists in the world.
	They have some of the best extraction technology.
	India also exports machinery.
	And I mentioned this the other day.
	They have a whole line of so-so tractors called Mahindra.
	Mahindra, yeah.
	M-A-H-I-N-D-R-A.
	I'm not brave enough to buy a Mahindra tractor.
	It just seems too risky to me.
	But some people love the value of Mahindra because it's much lower cost.
	And I hear that they run.
	Look, I'll tell you my bias.
	I just prefer to buy tractors and heavy equipment made in Japan.
	I've told you my stories about my John Deere equipment and the whole sprocket, the drive sprocket breaking off in the first 50 hours of owning a compact track loader and all the hydraulic fluids spraying out.
	Look, John Deere has crap quality.
	It's just the way it is.
	You want quality in equipment.
	You buy Kubota.
	You buy Japanese engineered equipment.
	It's just, I mean, everybody who actually does this knows exactly what I'm talking about.
	And nobody that I know who has a farm that needs to have everything running is buying Mahindra, but maybe I'm wrong.
	Maybe they're going to have a breakthrough.
	Whatever.
	Anyway, India is exporting a lot of Mahindra, which is bright red.
	They're like fire engine painted tractors.
	So you can see them very far away.
	And last time I checked the Mahindra tractors, they did run.
	You have to feed them a lot of oil because all their seals and gaskets don't quite line up, you know?
	Exactly what you might expect from manufacturing in India.
	Yeah, pretty much.
	Whereas you buy something out of Japan, it's like, wow, that's precise to the micrometer, you know?
	Japanese engineering, I love that.
	Indian engineering, yeah, it's going to leak oil all over the place.
	It's just cheaper.
	All right, and then let's go to Turkey now.
	So Turkey exports some interesting things to the United States.
	All of these will have 100% tariffs as well.
	Oh, and by the way, Mahindra, going back to India for a moment, if Mahindra tractors get 100% tariff on them, nobody will buy them because the only reason to buy Mahindra is because it's way cheaper than everything else.
	If it's not cheaper, forget it.
	Right?
	So there goes Mahindra if Trump follows through on this.
	All right, going back to Turkey.
	So what does Turkey manufacture and export to the United States?
	So let me say something about the Turkish culture.
	So the Turkish culture is actually, they have very respectable technology and I would say above average quality control.
	Not as good as Germany or Switzerland or Japan, but above average.
	Definitely higher quality than India.
	I'm not trying to insult India.
	It just cultures are different.
	I have some commentary about that coming up.
	But Turkey manufactures, let's see here.
	Industrial machinery, production equipment, agricultural products, electrical equipment, medical equipment, clothing, furniture, decorations, home and garden, automotive, transportation goods, health and beauty products, hotel and restaurant equipment.
	Cars, automotive parts.
	Have you ever bought a Turkey car, a Turkish car?
	I have not.
	I have not seen that.
	Automotive parts, jewelry, and petroleum oils, etc.
	That's interesting.
	Turkey also does export certain nutritional items such as oregano oil.
	That's right.
	I just happen to know that from my industry.
	And again, I have a lot of respect for the nation of Turkey.
	They're also world-class leaders in unmanned aircraft, you know, drones, military drones, surveillance drones, search and rescue drones, etc.
	And they have very advanced aircraft engineering.
	So for us to lose access to Turkey's exports because of this 100% tariff, this is going to be a very big deal.
	And then we have the EU, like I said earlier.
	So, you know, the EU, all kinds of things come out of the UK and Germany, etc.
	Hey, I just bought a high-end Leica range-finding binocular that also has a built-in ballistics computer for long-range shooting.
	And because you know, I'm a long-range shooter.
	It's a science that I really enjoy putting rounds on steel a thousand yards away or whatever.
	And the Leica company out of Germany makes this just kick-ass rangefinder.
	It's got all the software built in with really clear, excellent Leica glass, obviously.
	I have not received them yet, but when I do, I'll probably, I don't know, I'll probably show you how they work.
	I've got other kind of lower-end stuff from SIG Sauer, which is more sort of consumer grade, but these range finders from Leica are pretty much military grade.
	They're probably not marketed that way, but it's, I mean, they'll give you range on a target that's 3,000 meters away.
	How about that, huh?
	3,000 meters.
	That's a long-ass shot.
	Longer than any shot I've made.
	All right, so bottom line is what's going to be the impact if Trump and Flimsey Graham, if they keep their word and they slap this 100% tariff, secondary tariffs, on these countries that do business with Russia?
	Well, U.S. consumers will lose, they will either lose access to all these products from China, from India, Turkey, and the European Union, or they will have to pay more than double the normal price for those products.
	Either way, it's bad.
	Either way, it's going to cause inflation.
	It's going to cause supply chain chaos.
	And will it hurt Russia?
	No, it won't hurt Russia.
	You know why?
	Because China is not going to stop buying oil from Russia.
	That's why.
	China is going to keep buying oil from Russia.
	China is not going to cave to this, nor is India.
	I doubt Turkey will cave.
	And the EU is starving for energy.
	They don't have much of a choice.
	I mean, sure, they can buy it from the UAE and they can ship it through the Strait of Hormuz until Israel starts bombing Iran again and Iran shuts the strait.
	And then what are you going to do, EU?
	You're going to be out of luck.
	You're going to be out of energy.
	You're going to beg Russia to sell you energy.
	And then that's going to put you on the tariff list, you see.
	By the way, also Japan buys LNG from Russia, and so does Brazil.
	And Trump's already got a 50% tariff on Brazil.
	Is that going to be 150% now?
	The U.S. also traditionally had purchased a lot of energy, LNG, from Russia.
	Is the U.S. going to put tariffs on the U.S.?
	We have to pay ourselves 100% more.
	So here's what will actually happen, almost certainly.
	If Trump insists on pushing these tariffs, then what you're going to do, you're going to have all these oil-carrying, these tanker ships.
	They're going to be registered to some little island somewhere that nobody's ever heard of.
	You know, St. Croix III or whatever.
	And they're going to fly the St. Croix flag.
	And they're going to go to Russia.
	They're going to fill up with oil.
	And then they're going to sail into the Black Sea.
	And then they're going to meet up with another tanker from India or whatever.
	And then they're going to transfer the oil to the Indian tanker.
	They're going to forge the paperwork.
	And now it's Indian oil.
	And then India, the Indian tanker is going to sail to Turkey or whatever.
	And they're going to offload it in Turkey.
	And yeah, there's going to be a little bit of a price increase because of the, you know, the extra cost of pumping it from one ship to another.
	But you're not going to stop Russian oil.
	That's because the world needs energy and the world will find ways to move oil around.
	Unless you're going to have the U.S. Navy try to police every waterway in the world, which is impossible, doesn't work anymore.
	You can't police the whole world like that.
	So you can't stop Russia from exporting oil.
	All you're going to do is actually make other people in the middle, you know, the middleman, they're going to make a lot of money by marking up the price.
	I mean, India's been doing this since 2022.
	Everybody knows that.
	And don't forget about all the oil tankers that are registered to Greece.
	You know, Greece is famous for shipping and also forging paperwork when necessary to get the job done.
	So don't put it past the Greeks to counterfeit whatever paperwork is necessary to meet the current tariff demands.
	So you're not going to stop oil out of Russia.
	That's number one.
	Secondly, all these trading partners are already embracing BRICS and increasingly rejecting the dollar and de-emphasizing U.S. markets.
	So China, India, Russia, Iran, and even to some extent Turkey and other players, they're trading with each other without using the dollar currency.
	And they're developing each other's markets, increasingly ignoring the U.S. anyway.
	And Trump's threats are only going to accelerate that process as more nations move away from both U.S. markets and also from U.S. currency, the dollar.
	So most of the trade, for example, between China and Russia takes place in their own currencies.
	They don't use the dollar.
	Why would they?
	I mean, they did before because the dollar was kind of a neutral world reserve currency and SWIFT was the international financial plumbing that was available to everybody, but not anymore.
	So these countries are no longer using the dollar in most trades.
	I think between China and Russia, far fewer than 10% of the trade is conducted in the dollar.
	I think it might be only 4%, something like that.
	A similar thing is happening with India.
	Turkey is a little more amenable to the West for the moment because Turkey is a NATO member.
	I doubt that's going to last very long, obviously.
	And Japan is very subservient to the demands of the U.S. So Japan is using the dollar.
	But even though Japan does what the U.S. wants it to do, Trump punishes Japan with 25% tariff, which seems completely insane.
	You know?
	Should take it easy on your friends.
	Japan is a great friend of the United States.
	Why are we treating Japan like it's 1939?
	What?
	What's going on?
	My other prediction in this is that Trump's going to back down.
	So when we approach day 50, I mean, let's do the math on this.
	What is it?
	It's the middle of July.
	So let's say sort of that's going to put us right near the beginning of September.
	Is that about right?
	So the beginning of September rolls around.
	Trump's either going to delay the 50 days or he's going to back down or he's going to announce some kind of victory.
	Massive victory.
	We have an agreement.
	And meanwhile, you notice that every time Trump has an announcement, the markets whipsaw.
	That's because the people that are close to Trump are all engaged in insider trading.
	They're making fortunes on the markets moving up and down.
	Every time Trump says something, we're going to slap a tariff on copper.
	What happens to the copper market?
	Skyrockets, right?
	You think they didn't front load that with a bunch of futures options on copper?
	Of course they did.
	Come on.
	And then, you know, a month later, Trump will say, well, we're dropping the tariff on copper.
	And then copper prices will plummet.
	And then guess who benefits?
	Oh, all the people who had sold futures on copper.
	You know, I mean, this is massive insider trading taking place right now.
	Massive scale.
	It's abundantly clear.
	So Trump's announcements, I think, are more designed to enrich his own family and his associates by pretending that these tariffs are coming into play.
	I'm talking about the 100% tariffs.
	I don't think he's going to actually do that.
	In fact, I'm certain he's not.
	I'm so certain I'm not buying another pair of shoes From China.
	I'm not buying more tractor parts.
	I don't think he's going to follow through on this.
	Not this time.
	You know, fool me once, shame on you.
	Fool me twice, shame on me.
	I'm not falling for it.
	I don't think this is going to happen at all.
	And it's extraordinary to me that Trump and Lutnick, who else is involved in all this, Witcoff and others, they're still stuck in like 1985 or something.
	They think the U.S. is the manufacturing hub of the world and that we don't need parts from any other countries in order to build things in America.
	They have no idea.
	I mean, that would have been true in 1985 for the most part.
	Not today.
	Not even, don't even think about it.
	Like I said, I need a piece of equipment from Italy.
	Can't get it now.
	There are other times I need a circuit board replacement from Taiwan on some other equipment.
	You know, I don't want to be paying 100% tariff on things from Taiwan.
	I buy food and essential oils and nutritional raw materials from all these countries, you know, India and Turkey.
	I buy goji berries from China, the high elevation Himalayas, right?
	That's where the goji berries come from.
	I buy all kinds of things from Japan.
	And if you buy from us, you're getting the world's best high-density nutrition, you know, from all over the planet.
	Wherever we source it from, it's the best place to get that.
	And we do the lab testing, et cetera.
	But Trump is going to make our business very difficult to function because one day, you know, you're going to log into healthrangerstore.com and you're going to be like, whoa, why is this essential oil double price?
	Oh, well, that's Trump's tariffs on, you know, Turkey, let's say, whatever.
	So he's going to destroy supply chains and he's going to gut American businesses and manufacturers, almost none of which can make anything entirely based on U.S. sourced products.
	You know, even the knife company that we work with, Dawson Knives, they operate out of Arizona.
	And yeah, they make knives in Arizona, but they got to get the powdered steel, MagnaCut in particular.
	Well, the MagnaCut powdered steel, which is an incredible space age, you know, technology corrosion resistance on top of high rockwell hardness.
	And, you know, it's an amazing metal for knives and blades and hatchets and machetes and so on and even kitchen knives.
	You can no longer get it in America.
	It comes out of the EU now because the Syracuse, New York steel company got bought out by this European company and then that company moved the magna cut out of New York.
	So that's why the prices on the MagnaCut knives is going up 80%.
	Remember that?
	And that's before Trump's tariffs.
	So if Trump is going to slap another 100% on that, well, that means that a knife is going to go up 180% if it's made out of MagnaCut.
	Think about that.
	If you were paying $300 for a quality knife before, thanks to Trump, you're going to be paying $900.
	Or more than likely, you just won't buy it because you're like, I'm not paying $900 for a knife.
	Yeah.
	See?
	That's what's going to happen all over the U.S. economy.
	People are going to say, I'm just not, I just can't justify paying that.
	So there you go.
	Now, why are the supply chains global?
	Why?
	Let me read you a tweet I put out here that was pretty well received.
	Here it is.
	I recently heard Jim Rickards say that comparative advantage in the context of international economics is not a real thing.
	He says that any country is just as good as making anything as any other country.
	Although brilliant on many topics, Rickards is wrong on this one.
	If his statement were true, I would be buying avocados from Canada instead of Mexico.
	And nobody would bother trying to do business with African nations in order to acquire rare minerals.
	If comparative advantage weren't real, then automobiles made in America would have the same quality and longevity as automobiles made in Japan.
	But they don't.
	Culture matters.
	You can move a factory to a different nation, but you can't move a work ethic or attention to detail to another nation.
	That's why I buy laboratory microscopes made in Japan.
	It's why I buy high-end rangefinder binoculars made in Germany.
	America can never make them nearly as well, nor can Mexico or Vietnam for that matter.
	When you want Japanese engineering or Swiss accuracy or German engineering, you buy from Japan, Switzerland, or Germany.
	Everybody seems to know that except Trump, who thinks everything can be made in America just the same.
	He's wrong.
	So is Rickards.
	America is good at manufacturing debt, GMOs, pesticides, entertainment films, and processed junk food, but little else.
	Boeing can't even make airplanes that don't fall out of the sky on a regular basis.
	They are good, however, at making things that explode.
	From time to time, some of those explosions are even intentional in the form of bombs.
	The culture of quality and detail is about two generations long gone in the USA, for the most part.
	Heavy drug addiction, processed junk foods, widespread pharmaceutical use have turned America's workforce into a festival of obese chemical junkies who have few skills, very little productivity, and an attitude of privilege that precludes them from being manageable in any environment requiring actual labor.
	This is why Amazon is rushing to replace every last one of them with robots, by the way.
	So, yeah, it sounds pretty harsh, but it's true.
	It's true.
	You can't just Take a factory and put it in America and get the same quality that you would get out of Japan or Germany or these other countries.
	Like I said, you can't just start mining minerals everywhere.
	You can't start growing tropical fruit everywhere.
	Different countries are better at making different things.
	I don't know why Jim Rickards would say that's not true.
	He should know basic economics.
	I mean, it's a fundamental economic truism, comparative advantage.
	Some countries are better at making things than other countries.
	Trump thinks that if he punishes these other nations enough, that people will set up factories in America and they'll make everything in America.
	And it just doesn't work that way.
	It doesn't work that way.
	It might have been possible in the 1950s or even the 1970s.
	Not today.
	Not a chance.
	Most Americans don't even want to work at all.
	I mean, even the white-collar workers refuse to show up in any office.
	Ever since COVID, they just want to remote work, which means I want to stay home and not work, but collect a paycheck, for the most part.
	Right?
	You know what I'm talking about.
	And have you ever tried to hire labor in America?
	You know, if you dare run a criminal background check on your applicants, they're all felons with drug abuse problems.
	I mean, it's unbelievable.
	I mean, it's so interesting.
	You ask a typical American, like, do you want to buy made in America?
	And they're like, yes, made in America.
	And then you ask them, do you want to work in a factory in America?
	Oh, God, no.
	We don't work in factories in America.
	Well, how do you suppose it's going to be made in America if nobody's working in the factories in America?
	Oh, well, you didn't think about that one.
	Yeah, of course you didn't.
	You can't buy everything made in America if nobody's willing to work in factories in America.
	And the factories don't exist and the supply chains don't exist and the infrastructure doesn't exist and the rare earth minerals don't exist in America, etc.
	And, you know, even that announcement, they announced Wyoming is going to open up a rare earth mining facility where they're going to extract rare earths out of coal, by the way.
	Do you have any idea how much coal you have to process in order to get like one gram of neodymium?
	Have any idea?
	I'm just guessing, but it might be a thousand tons of coal.
	I don't know to get one gram.
	I mean, that's just a guess.
	I don't know the actual ratio.
	Depends on the mine.
	It depends on the extraction methods, etc.
	But you're not going to be cranking out, you know, metric tons of rare earths.
	You're going to have like grams of rare earths.
	Like today we have, you know, 15 grams of, you know, whatever, whatever rare earth you need.
	Yeah, tomorrow, man, we hope to produce 12 grams.
	Great.
	You know, by the year 2030, you could fill a bucket.
	That's awesome.
	You know, and then economically illiterate people, sometimes part of the administration like, this is how we're going to compete with China.
	You know, we're going to have our own rare earths.
	Not at that scale.
	You're not.
	I mean, you're not making a dent in the demand.
	Not even a dent.
	It's incredible.
	Yeah, elements matter.
	Yeah.
	Double meaning.
	Elements matter.
	Okay.
	Enough of the nerd jokes.
	But, you know, you can just, you can imagine people in the Trump administration.
	Why can't we just take, you know, nickel and tell the nickel to self-identify as neodymium?
	We just, we just take nickel and we just tit it.
	You're neodymium now.
	Because they both start with N. Does that work?
	You know?
	Oh, my God.
	Oh, my God.
	These people failed high school physics.
	Not to mention college economics.
	What are we going to do?
	So if you bring up the table of elements, the chart, do you know why there are different columns and different rows?
	Because each element is different, it turns out.
	Imagine, imagine that.
	Each element is actually different.
	And that means they behave differently.
	They have different properties, different chemistry, different atomic masses, different levels of stability or instability, etc.
	So that's my report on the 50-day threat of 100% tariffs on all these countries that buy energy from Russia.
	I think Trump is going to cave.
	I think we're going to have Trump Taco Tuesday coming up here by early September or sooner.
	And I think that Trump and his crew have no idea how U.S. manufacturing actually functions.
	They are absolutely clueless.
	And that's why car manufacturers call the White House in a panic and say, you just cut off our supply chain.
	You do realize, Trump, we can't make cars in America without these metals from China, right?
	You do realize that.
	You know, you can imagine Trump's people like, no, we had no idea.
	We thought it's all made in America.
	No, Ford has to educate them.
	When we say, quote, made in America, what we mean is we buy all the parts from China and Vietnam and Turkey and all these other.
	And then we bring those parts to America.
	And then we hire American workers, the ones that aren't on meth, to assemble them.
	We put them together in America.
	That's called made in America, Mr. Trump.
	That's how that works.
	You know, Trump's people are like, are you serious?
	Like, they don't even know this.
	They have no idea how things are made in America.
	You got to get parts from the whole world.
	I mean, the bottom line in this is that, you know, how in World War II, the U.S. Navy embargoed the nation of Japan, had an energy embargo on Japan?
	Like, no oil for you, no soup for you, right?
	Today, Trump, he's issuing an embargo against his own country, a trade embargo.
	It's like, no parts for America.
	Oh, are you at war with America?
	Because we did that in World War II to punish Japan, right?
	Now you're punishing us.
	It's an embargo against America.
	No supply chain for you.
	Okay, that's going to get really interesting.
	I'm actually very interested to see how that goes.
	How long it lasts before Trump caves?
	Because Trump is the taco.
	He is the taco man.
	It's Orange Taco Tuesday.
	Trump is going to cave.
	He's going to chick it out.
	Mark my words.
	Because U.S. manufacturing cannot function without a global supply chain.
	Period.
	Period.
	If Trump doesn't know it yet, he's going to learn because he's going to hear it from every major corporation that manufactures anything in this country.
	So my guess is that will happen before the first week of September.
	We'll see.
	But thanks for listening.
	Mike Adams here, the Health Ranger.
	HealthRangerStore.com.
	Buy our stuff while we can still make it, while we can still get it.
	50 days from now, the whole supply chain might be shut down.
	Who knows?
	We'll do the best we can, but I can't make any promises.
	We'll see.
	But thanks for listening today.
	Take care.
	All right.
	Hope you enjoyed that special report on Trump Orange Taco Tuesday.
	I've got another special report for you here about why the USA is incapable of honest negotiations with Russia.
	We're going to get to that.
	And then I've got another report called My Urgent Message for All Christians.
	By endorsing religious racism and violence, you're destroying your own soul.
	That's my warning.
	And I think you'll actually enjoy that podcast.
	It's very well presented with an overall vibration of love and universal human dignity, by the way, because those are values that I share.
	So we're going to go to both of those, and then we'll have today's interview with Dr. Malik.
	I think you'll really enjoy that interview.
	Before I get there, today's broadcast is sponsored by Battalion Metals.
	You can find them at metalswithmike.com.
	That's our precious metals partner for many, many years now.
	And gold and silver have settled a little bit from the highs a few days ago.
	And that's great.
	You know, it's a good stacking opportunity.
	I'm a big fan of just cost average purchasing of gold and silver.
	Just purchase a certain amount each month, every month, or every quarter, whatever works for you.
	Just keep stacking gold and silver.
	And there was an announcement today from Don Huffins.
	Is that how you say his name?
	He's the compptroller in Texas, talking about how Texas is positioning itself to make gold and silver spendable through these electronic formats.
	And yeah, that's happening.
	And if you want to have assets when this whole system comes tumbling down, you need to have it in gold and silver.
	I don't know what's going to happen to crypto.
	Bitcoin is up to 120K per Bitcoin.
	Obviously, you know, CIA needs its money laundering system as well.
	That's not the only use of Bitcoin.
	There's a ton of other uses.
	I am a fan of crypto.
	I'm especially a fan of privacy crypto.
	But I don't know about the volatility.
	I don't know where crypto is going.
	I do know where gold and silver are going because, well, you know, they are physical elements and their value is not based on just people's faith.
	You know, they have real physical utility in the real world.
	So I'm a big fan of gold and silver.

	So Trump has given Putin a 50-day warning that if we don't reach a deal in 50 days, well, then, gosh, you know, we're going to bomb you.
	Now, this is a negotiation tactic, of course.
	And the United States never honestly negotiates anything.
	Recall what the U.S. did with Iran.
	They were in negotiations with Iran, and then they used the premise of negotiations as a deception to actually bomb Iran, even though it was expected that they were going to have negotiator meetings two days later.
	And the U.S. and Israel killed the negotiators.
	So Putin is not a fool.
	You know, Iran got caught off guard.
	They got tricked.
	And, you know, shame on them.
	They shouldn't have been so trusting of the West.
	Putin is not trusting of the West.
	Putin's not going to be fooled in this way.
	Putin knows there's actually no negotiating with the United States of America.
	The U.S. has proven that it's an untrustworthy partner on anything.
	Negotiations, treaties, agreements, trade, monetary systems, you name it.
	The U.S. will always break its own promises every time.
	And even this entire discussion about, oh, Putin refuses to negotiate, and that's not true at all, actually.
	Remember that every nation wants peace just on their own terms.
	So Putin wants peace.
	He wants peace with certain conditions that he has laid out, that Ukraine will never join NATO, for example, and that Ukraine would be denazified.
	And yes, Trump wants peace with Russia under Trump's terms, which would be that Russia does whatever we tell them to do.
	That's always been the position of the U.S. and the West.
	Regime change.
	We just don't want Putin there.
	We want somebody that we control.
	Same thing with Iran.
	Regime change.
	We want to overthrow the government and install a sympathetic puppet leader like the Shah.
	This is always the position of the West.
	It never changes.
	So yes, everybody wants peace just on their own terms.
	Zelensky wants peace, but on his terms.
	What are his terms?
	Russia evacuates all of the original Ukraine territory that Russia has taken since then.
	The whole Donbass region and all that.
	Yeah, sure.
	Zelensky's happy to have peace as long as Russia completely leaves and that Ukraine is allowed to join NATO and Ukraine is allowed to rearm.
	Yeah, sure.
	Those are Zelensky's terms.
	So everybody wants peace.
	But when the terms do not match, then of course that's when you either negotiate or you fight it out.
	Well, the West has proven, like I said, that they cannot negotiate in good faith.
	The U.S. is incapable of negotiating in good faith.
	I don't care if it's Witkoff, Trump, anybody.
	It doesn't matter.
	The U.S. cannot negotiate.
	And the U.S. cannot be trusted to negotiate in good faith.
	They never keep their word.
	So Russia is in a position of realizing that out of the two options, negotiations versus military outcomes, there's only one remaining option for Russia, military outcome.
	That's it.
	And Trump has just given Russia a 50-day window.
	Essentially, Trump has announced to Putin, you have 50 days to carry out the conclusion or achieve the conclusion of your military campaign in Ukraine.
	Now, the 50 days isn't a hard number.
	It's going to get stretched out, obviously.
	It's just sort of big talk by Trump at the moment, but it'll stretch out, which means that really Russia has several months to achieve, let's say, commanding victories or to seize territories that will absolutely leave no doubt in the minds of Zelensky and the West that Russia is dictating the terms of the conclusion of this war.
	So again, Putin's got, let's say, two to three months.
	Two to three months.
	Now, during this time, of course, Zelensky is almost certainly going to be targeting Russian supply infrastructure and military infrastructure that's hundreds of kilometers inside the borders of Russia.
	Probably not all the way to Moscow.
	But it looks like Trump is going to grant Zelensky, quote, permission, which really means it's U.S. soldiers running the equipment and doing the targeting and using U.S. satellite imagery, et cetera, to launch missiles, you know, high Mars missiles or ATACOM's missiles or whatever are the more medium-range missiles.
	Those are going to be launched deeper into Russia.
	And they are going to achieve some hits, no question about it.
	They're going to hit some ammo depots.
	They're going to hit some, I don't know, railways.
	They're going to hit some targets.
	When that happens, Putin will fully realize that the United States of America is a direct combatant in this war.
	Because, you see, the U.S. has said previously to Zelensky, hey, we'll send you all these weapons, but they're only defensive weapons.
	You're not allowed to use these weapons offensively to strike targets deeper into Russia.
	But due to pressure of lunatics like Senator Flimsey Graham and others, then Trump is about to give Zelensky permission to strike targets deeper into Russia, which means the U.S. will be offensively involved in the war.
	And since that necessarily requires U.S. personnel for targeting and to run the equipment and, like I said, satellite imagery, et cetera, Russia is going to realize, hey, the U.S. is in the war.
	And that means, well, NATO's in the war.
	That means that all NATO targets are, in the view of Putin, legitimate military targets for Russia to strike.
	Now, this escalation is exactly what Trump and the West want.
	They want Russia to start striking targets in Romania or Poland or Germany or wherever.
	They want that.
	Because, I mean, here's why.
	Because the West has run out of missiles.
	Essentially, they're out.
	And the only thing that the West has left is really nuclear weapons.
	Nuclear weapons.
	There's nothing in between that the West has in any legitimate quantity.
	You know, the West doesn't have, let's say, Iskander missiles like Russia has.
	The West has to go from running out of ammunition to nuclear weapons.
	But in order to do that, the West needs an excuse to take it nuclear.
	They hope to provoke Putin into granting them that excuse by provoking Putin into attacking a military base, most likely, in a NATO country far outside of Ukraine.
	Russia has a capability to conduct those strikes with things like Iskander missiles or Oreshnik missiles.
	But Putin has been very reluctant to take this bait.
	Putin is very cautious.
	He's reserved.
	In fact, he's criticized by his own countrymen for being too reserved and too cautious.
	However, Putin's very smart about this in the sense that he knows he is avoiding giving the West the excuse that they need domestically to justify leaping into nuclear weapons.
	Because Putin knows that once nuclear weapons are used on the battlefield, then, you know, game theory says this whole thing escalates dramatically into nuclear territory on both sides.
	Once the West starts launching nukes, then Russia has little choice but to unleash a full barrage of nukes targeting Washington, D.C., New York City, you know, the financial, military, and government centers of the West.
	They will nuke London.
	They will nuke Paris.
	They will nuke Berlin, etc.
	And Putin doesn't want to do that.
	Of course he doesn't want to do that.
	That's horrible for the future of the world.
	It also means there would be many incoming nukes from the West launched toward Russia, and Russia cannot stop all of those nukes.
	It can stop some of them, but not all of them.
	And that means that Russian cities would be on the receiving end of nuclear detonations.
	So understand that the West is run by lunatics.
	I mean, just sociopathic, insane lunatics.
	They run the UK.
	They run France.
	They run Germany.
	They run the US.
	Absolute lunatics like Lindsey Graham.
	Putin is actually the sane actor in this scenario.
	Not Zelensky.
	Zelensky is just an actor.
	You know, he's not even a leader.
	He's a puppet.
	He's playing a role.
	He's literally an entertainer, an actor playing a role.
	But Putin is rational.
	It doesn't mean I endorse everything that Putin has ever done or that I side with Russia.
	What I'm saying is that Putin is the rational actor here, whereas Western countries are not rational, which means Putin knows that Western countries literally would launch nukes.
	And that's why Putin is backing off of giving them any kind of internal justification for doing so, which means that Russia is going to be willing to take hits and to not respond for this very reason.
	Because Putin doesn't want to take this nuclear.
	Russia has taken a lot of hits and not responded.
	They've dealt out a lot of damage, obviously, to Ukraine at the same time.
	But they've also taken a lot of domestic hits, domestic terrorism, the shooting at the theater a year ago, whatever that was.
	They were clearly coordinated by NATO leaders.
	And Russia has chosen to not respond to those.
	That is a strategy on the part of Putin.
	It's a strategy of not giving in to the provocation bait.
	The fact that this is happening is actually, it's very fortunate for the world.
	Because if Putin behaved with the same insanity as Western leaders, we would already be in a nuclear world war with nuclear winter, global fallout, probably billions would be dying, etc.
	No joke.
	No exaggeration.
	So Putin's rationality is at the moment the only thing preventing World War III.
	And this is why the Oreshnik missile is so critical for Russia.
	That achievement, which is an extraordinary technological, aerospace, and military technology achievement that the West will not achieve in 20 years, by the way.
	You know, Russia is literally 20 years ahead of the West in that area of technology.
	China is ahead of the West in almost all the other areas of technology, but Russia has the most advanced ballistic missile delivery systems, including non-nuclear systems.
	So the Oreshnik missile is non-nuclear, and yet it can Destroy any target on the ground or under the ground.
	Any target, technically, on the planet.
	Although Russia has not yet mounted the Oreshnik systems on top of intercontinental ballistic missiles, they very easily can, obviously.
	So that means that what Russia is going to do is they're going to keep this in the non-nuclear zone, but they're going to strike almost certainly, this is my guess, they're going to end up striking targets to send a message.
	They're going to communicate through Oreshnik.
	In other words, the Oreshnik translator is about to be invoked.
	When a Mach 11, you know, when 36 projectiles are incoming at Mach 11 and they strike your target and they turn it to dust, there's actually a form of communication in that.
	And the message is, stop what you're doing.
	And that's how Putin's going to negotiate with Trump.
	Since, again, the West is a non-trustable negotiating adversary.
	The only way to negotiate is through things like Oreshnik.
	But these targets are going to be carefully chosen by Putin in order to not embarrass Trump or other Western leaders.
	He doesn't want to embarrass them, which would force them into a position where they have to respond or else lose domestic credibility.
	So the targets will be very carefully chosen by Putin to send a message without causing escalation.
	Those targets initially might be targets in Western Ukraine.
	So they're still within Ukraine, but they're outside of the normal scope of targeting.
	They would include, my guess is they would include targets where, for example, Western military personnel are based.
	So training centers, command centers, drone operations centers, weapons assembly centers that are directed by Westerners, etc.
	My guess is these are going to be the targets.
	And if the West does not get the message at that point, then a few months down the road, we could see Russia striking targets outside of Ukraine.
	But that would be a major escalation.
	And that's something that Putin is very reluctant to do, clearly.
	If that happens, you can expect a very rapid counter-escalation from the West.
	And this whole thing could go nuclear very quickly.
	So the clock is ticking.
	Two to three months right now.
	You may see a lot of ground action.
	I mean, Russia is basically in a summer offensive.
	They're gaining tremendous ground.
	They're positioning forces on the ground to potentially invade Kiev at some point.
	I mean, right now they're striking.
	I mean, look at the drone strikes from Russia.
	What are they striking?
	Infrastructure.
	They're taking out power grid infrastructure, which, of course, stops trains from running in Ukraine because most of them are electric trains.
	They're taking out fuel depots.
	They're taking out military infrastructure.
	They're taking out military recruitment centers and also drone manufacturing centers all across Ukraine.
	That's designed to deplete the infrastructure in preparation for a larger ground movement on Russia's part.
	There may be a decisive ground.
	I mean, I don't want to call it a blitzkrieg because that's a German term from World War II.
	And it wouldn't be that fast, but it's something like that, just not at the same pace.
	Kind of like the early days of the war in 2022 when Russia just pierced deep into Ukraine with tanks in order to try to force a quick negotiation.
	And then they backed off of that to try to engage in negotiations.
	And then the West, of course, betrayed the negotiations.
	Boris Johnson out of the UK in particular.
	So keep all this in mind, folks.
	Keep all this in mind.
	There's a lot that's about to happen in the next few months.
	Stay prepared.

	Take care.
	I have a really urgent message for all Christians.
	Living in this world today, Christianity is, you know, of course, has been perverted.
	You saw many of the churches pushing COVID vaccines, for example, mRNA, demonic technology to infest the bodies of Christians, many of whom died from that.
	And now we have also a demonic narrative to infest the hearts of Christians.
	And that demonic narrative is a narrative that there is one group of people who are God's chosen people, only one group, no one else, and that that group of people is not only allowed to kill other people, but encouraged to kill other people.
	This is how we are getting the genocide in Gaza and the mass death and suffering and the cover-ups of all of this, the bombing of hospitals and refugee camps, the murder of doctors and food aid workers, etc.
	All being done under the name, under the label of God.
	That people say we are God's chosen people.
	And then many Christians are saying, well, we have to support this group of people in order to be good Christians.
	I am here to tell you that that path is a path of absolute existential self-destruction.
	If you have in your heart the vibration of hatred and death and destruction toward others, towards Any group of people, then it's not that God will destroy you, but you are destroying yourself.
	And the only Christ-like vibration that is legitimate is a vibration of universal love for all sentient beings.
	And this extends beyond all of humanity to include all animals, to include even all plants.
	And as I'm discovering in recent experiments, it also includes there is a lower level of intelligence found in chemistry, in molecules.
	Everything, literally everything that exists in physical matter is at some level tapping into intelligence.
	I'm not saying that rocks have brains, not at all.
	But I am saying that as crystals form, they tap into intelligence.
	And I've already proven that under the microscope by publishing photos of intense microscopy responding to conscious prompts.
	So I don't have time to go into that right now, but I've published all those photos on naturalnews.com if you want to look at that.
	But here we are living in a world where many, many Christians say, well, we have to kill those people or we have to support Israel killing those people because God chose us.
	We're God's chosen people or this group is God's chosen people.
	And so they have this hatred in their hearts and yet they think that Jesus is going to return and save them.
	And many of these people believe that if they start World War III or they initiate the apocalypse or they start the timetable of the end times or if they could just get events to line up with the book of Revelation, then they think that Jesus is going to return and save them.
	And those people who hold those beliefs and who simultaneously hold the belief of ethnic supremacy, believing that they or someone has the right to kill other groups of people, I'm telling you, that belief system is false, it is antichrist, and it is incredibly destructive.
	And these people will destroy themselves and they will destroy their souls, not just their lives here on earth, but they are putting black marks on their souls for eternity.
	In essence, their Akashic records or their book of life, whatever you want to call it, will be imprinted with these actions, thinking that death and destruction of the other group was a godly thing.
	And that is incredibly offensive to creation and to the laws of reality that our God has built into the created universe.
	So I hear people on social media say things like they hate Islam.
	They hate Islam.
	They hate all people who are Islamic.
	So that is a spiritual suicide statement to say that you hate all people who follow Islam, even when Islam, by the way, recognizes Jesus as a prophet, whereas Judaism doesn't recognize Jesus as a savior or a prophet at all.
	But to say that you hate a specific religious group, it doesn't harm that religious group.
	It harms you.
	It imprints hatred into your heart and into your soul.
	And it makes you the enemy of you.
	Not that Islam is the enemy of you or any other religion or Judaism or whatever.
	Similarly, any person who claims to be a follower of Islam, who also holds in their heart extreme hatred towards someone else just because they're a Christian or just because they're a Jew, that also is the antithesis of what our Creator implores us to understand.
	And so obviously, a person of any religion or any religious upbringing is capable of perverting that religion and turning it into a justification for hatred, which leads to self-destruction.
	So my urgent message to all Christians today, but it extends beyond all Christians, it's to everybody in Islam, Buddhism, Sikhism, Hinduism, atheism, you know, you name it, is your survival depends on you having love in your heart for all other sentient beings.
	That is your spiritual survival.
	It's the only way that you actually transcend this simulation is by expressing universal love.
	That's your ticket for, I don't know, you call it victory or success or graduation from the simulation, whatever you want to call it.
	Love is your ticket, not hatred.
	And when I see so many of these so-called Christian Zionist pastors like Gregory Locke and others whose hearts are filled with hatred and rage and death, I pray for their souls.
	I pray that they would turn and learn that they are on a path of self-destruction.
	They're not on a path of destroying the other.
	They're on a path of destroying the self.
	And it is the self-inflicted wounds that are the worst.
	It's a self-betrayal.
	It's a spiritual betrayal at a cosmic level that people are engaging in when they express mass hatred towards everybody else, mass hatred of people of a certain ethnic group.
	You know, you hear this from time to time.
	You hear people say they hate Islam, or you hear People say they hate white people, or sometimes you'll hear people say they hate Hispanic people, Latino people.
	All of these are statements of ignorant people.
	And we must pray that they mature and grow and learn to overcome this.
	Because if they are stuck in that vibration of separation and hatred toward the other, it's actually just a reflection of self-hatred.
	Every one of these people, like I guarantee you that, you know, Locke or others who speak like this, just filled with rage and hatred, in every case, there's a wound that they experienced, sometimes as a child, sometimes as a young person.
	There's a wound where they were betrayed by someone typically important in their life.
	Sometimes it can be a parent.
	Sometimes it can be a friend.
	Sometimes it can be a former spouse or another family member.
	But they have been betrayed.
	They have been wounded.
	And instead of addressing the resolution to that wound, they turn around and they use that wound to weaponize their own heart against others, feeling as if if they can hurt and destroy enough other people in their world, then somehow that will make up for the hurt that they were caused, the betrayal that they felt.
	So it's always a projection.
	When you encounter somebody who is filled with hatred, it's a projection of their own self-loathing.
	It's all it is.
	You're watching a mirror that can speak.
	Even throughout history, the history of racism, think about it.
	In the old South, in the U.S., in the plantation days, a lot of southern plantation owners would speak in very derogatory terms about black people or how much they hate black people.
	Well, that can only come from a place of separation, thinking that they are different than us.
	If you think about it, the slave plantation days was very similar to what Zionism is today in the sense that the plantation owners believe that we are God's chosen people and that we, or they would say to themselves, that they have the right to rule over the lesser humans that they owned as slaves, and they felt like they could do anything to those slaves.
	They could beat them.
	They could punish them.
	They could rape them.
	They could abuse them.
	They could starve them.
	This is exactly what Israel believes today, or Zionism as a philosophy believes that it is superior, that it is chosen by God, and therefore it can inflict these wounds upon other people around it.
	And just like in the Old South, that belief system was demonic, and it was a reflection of a conflict within the self, as it is today in Zionism.
	Zionism is a wounded philosophy of projection, of existential suicide.
	And that's why it's no coincidence that a large number of so-called Christian Zionists literally believe that they have to accelerate the destruction of the world, the bringing on of the end times, the apocalypse, in order for them to finally achieve their highest purpose in their belief system.
	In other words, total self-annihilation is the end goal for redemption.
	Now, think about that.
	What kind of people believe that, that mass suicide is the necessary step for redemption?
	Well, we've seen this before in every suicide cult in U.S. history and elsewhere around the world.
	We saw this with the Heaven's Gate cult that was in California, I think back in the 1990s, perhaps.
	They thought that if they all committed suicide together, you know, self-annihilation, then they would all be rescued by the alien mothership that was hiding behind Halley's Comet, I think.
	And they believed that.
	And so they all committed mass suicide in their apocalyptic belief.
	Well, Christian Zionists share that same belief, just with a different story.
	Their story is, hey, if we could just start the end times and we could rebuild the temple and we could sacrifice the red heifers and we could destroy Israel's enemies and mushroom clouds and this and that, Jesus will come back and lift us up because we are God's chosen people.
	That belief system is a self-inflicted suicide cult.
	And it has nothing in touch with reality or with the teachings of Christ or even with what the book of Revelation literally says because it doesn't say any of that at all.
	I've studied it intensely and I've taught it.
	I've read it word for word numerous times and it does not say any of those things.
	So my urgent message for Christians especially is that if you are going along with mainstream Christianity, especially sort of the Schofield version of Christianity that is supporting Israel, you are actually, you have been deceived.
	You are not following Christianity.
	You are following a church of Satan and you are going to destroy yourself.
	You won't destroy Israel's enemies.
	You will destroy yourself in this process.
	And the easy litmus test on this is to ask yourself, do you endorse or support the annihilation of any group of people based on their ethnicity or their religion or the place where they were born?
	And if your answer is yes, then you are in a suicide cult.
	And it's time to escape that.
	It's time to get out.
	And the very first step of getting out of that suicide cult is recognizing that you're in a cult.
	Christian Zionism as practiced today in America, much of it is a suicide cult or a death cult.
	So recognize it, and then you can begin to peel away the layers and start to escape that cult.
	And that process is actually straightforward.
	You can revisit the teachings of Christ, the teachings of universal love, universal respect for life, the understanding that every human being is a child of God, that a portion of God's spirit exists in every single human being.
	The innocence of a child is a reflection of the miracles of our Creator.
	And then you can compare what you have been taught by perhaps your church or your pastor or an influencer or the media or whoever.
	You can compare that against the teachings of Christ.
	And you can ask yourself, wait a second, are these consistent?
	This idea, we have to kill everybody in Palestine.
	We have to bomb all these children.
	We have to destroy all these enemies.
	We have to bomb the hospitals.
	We have to bomb the churches and the mosques and the refugee camps.
	Is this Christ-like?
	What would Jesus do in this situation if Jesus were the prime minister of Israel?
	What would Jesus do?
	Would he bomb hundreds of thousands of human beings into oblivion?
	The answer, of course, is no.
	He would not.
	And so if you are supporting anything that is diverging from what Jesus taught and what he practiced, then you are not a Christian.
	So you're not leaving Christianity to leave a cult that falsely calls itself Christianity.
	You are, in fact, returning to real Christianity and leaving the perverted Decepticon version.
	Think about it this way.
	The further away you move from the teachings of Christ, the further away you are from authentic Christianity.
	The closer you are or the more aligned you are with the teachings of Christ, the closer you are to real Christianity.
	And just because a belief is popular in our modern time does not make it Christian, even if every Christian you know is going along with it.
	You know, simple pop quiz.
	If you have a room of 100 Christians and 99 of them say, kill the babies, but one of them says, no, wait, that's not Christ-like, then should you go along with the 99 or should you go along with the one?
	You should go along with the one because the one is aligned with the teachings of Christ and the 99 are anti-Christ in their behavior.
	And you don't need the approval of the 99 in order to make your decision.
	All you need to do is recognize the true teachings of Christ, the universality of life and divinity in all living creatures, all conscious beings.
	And then most of the answers become self-apparent.
	And it's interesting because Christians already know this.
	They argue for life, for protecting life when it comes to abortion.
	They say, well, that's a child.
	That's a child that just hasn't been born yet.
	They call it an unborn child, in fact.
	And they say it's wrong to kill that child.
	So think about this.
	Think about this.
	Is abortion wrong in Gaza, according to a Christian?
	Because you see the way a modern Christian thinks, it's wrong to kill an unborn baby in Gaza because that's abortion, but it's right to bomb the baby to death once it's born because Jews are God's chosen people.
	You see the obvious contradiction there?
	Right.
	So if your belief system has you thinking it's wrong to kill babies in the womb, but it's right to bomb them after they're born, then you are in a cult.
	You are in a cult.
	If you can see it, good for you.
	It's time to escape the cult.
	If you can't see it, if you're feeling a lot of resistance, if you hear this and I'm describing you and you're like, no, that's not true, you're in a cult.
	You're in a cult that you refuse to see or you're incapable of seeing it.
	And it's not even a difficult cult to recognize.
	It's kind of obvious when they're bombing so many innocent women and children to death.
	Kind of hard not to see it, actually.
	You have to weave an incredible delusion of sorcery and spells around your psyche in order to go along with it.
	And that's the role of people like Gregory Locke, is to weave spells and sorcery and deception in a demonic fashion in order to create an inability for people to see the obvious.
	And that's how you know, by the way, that Israel, the current leadership of Israel, is actually demonic because they are rooted in deception and sorcery, not in truth.
	They have no fundamental respect for life.
	They have no universal principles at all other than their own religious racism, religious supremacy.
	We are God's chosen people, therefore we can do anything we want.
	Well, if the whole world acted like that, then it would be the end of human civilization.
	We would just wage endless wars until everybody kills each other, right?
	But you see, that's the perfect reflection of what these people are doing to themselves.
	So people who go along with that ethnic supremacy, they are, in fact, destroying their own souls.
	So it's funny because Christians always talk about being saved.
	I was saved, or they say, I was born again.
	You can be born again right now.
	You can be saved right now by exiting the cult.
	You can initiate your own saving.
	God is ready to embrace you, Christ is ready to embrace you.
	If you are diverging from the teachings of Christ, that's on you, not Jesus.
	So it's you that needs to reject the cult and needs to come back to the teachings of Jesus if you want to be saved.
	In other words, yeah, Christ died on the cross for your sins, but you won't be saved if you continue to reject what Christ taught and what he showed us.
	You will destroy yourself even though he went out of his way to save you.
	But if you want to save yourself, he's already done the hard part for you.
	All you have to do is stop being filled with hatred and disgust for other children of God.
	It's very simple.
	So clarity on this is really important.
	I want to encourage you to check out a channel on YouTube known as Aaron Abke, A-B-K-E.
	I've interviewed Aaron.
	He's an extraordinary teacher, a graduate of Oral Roberts University, former young pastor.
	And his teachings are so much on the mark on this very issue.
	Aaron Abke is a spiritual trailblazer for our time.
	And if you watch his channel and you follow even a little bit of what he teaches, you will find yourself to be a person more at peace, more resonating with love and Christ, living more in harmony with the world around you, and less obsessed with death and destruction and domination and power over others.
	So check out Aaron Abke's channel or check out my interview with him on Brighteon.com.
	You can just search for his last name on Brighteon.
	It's Abke, A-B-K-E, and I think you'll really enjoy it.
	So thank you for your interest in this topic.
	Thank you for having the patience to challenge yourself and to think about these issues and the courage to get yourself out of the cult.
	If you're still in one, you can climb out of it and you can do so starting right now.
	Yes, it takes courage and effort, but if you weren't a person of courage and effort, you wouldn't be listening to this in the first place.
	So you have everything you need to make this happen.
	All right.
	Thank you for listening and God bless you all.
	I'm Mike Adams, The Health Ranger.
	NaturalNews.com and Brighteon.com.
	Take care.
	Welcome to today's interview here on Briteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, The Health Ranger, and I'm very honored to be joined by an extraordinary man, a UK citizen.
	His name is Ahmed Malik, and he is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who went into private practice even before COVID.
	And he dared to speak out and tell the truth about important topics like COVID and vaccines and other things.
	And he has been a voice for truth and a champion for truth ever since, even though he's been dragged through this by all of the typical authorities and censorship and so on.
	But he joins us today to share his story with us.
	Welcome, Doc Malik.
	It's just an honor to have you on the show today.
	I've been wanting to get you on for a long time.
	It's great to have you here.
	Well, thank you very much.
	And it's reciprocal.
	And hopefully you're coming on my show soon.
	So it'll be great.
	I would love to join your show.
	I'm always honored to do that.
	Now, in fact, I think you just interviewed Dr. Kirk Moore, didn't you?
	Yes, I did.
	My friend.
	Yes.
	That's awesome.
	We were so, actually, I had a feeling.
	I mean, I had a knowing.
	I knew that his case was going to be dismissed.
	I don't know how I knew, but I was so happy when that happened.
	Thank you for your efforts, too, to help fellow health freedom champions.
	No, absolutely.
	So the funny thing is, before his court case started, he reached out to me and he was messaging me.
	We've been chatting for two years.
	He's been on my podcast before.
	And the Sunday before his court case started, he reached out to me and I could tell he was really low.
	And I said, look, let's just do a quick podcast tonight and we'll get it out and we'll push it on the airways and we'll get like, just get as much noise going as possible.
	And there's other people doing the same.
	Mary Tally Bowden, you know, another wonderful doctor you know about.
	And so we recorded a podcast.
	And if you listen to that podcast, you know, he was quite emotional.
	He was, he looked tired.
	He looked like he was a bit, he was, he was struggling.
	And I said to him, look, you just hold your head up high.
	You be proud of yourself.
	You're an ethical doctor.
	You've got integrity at your core, unlike 99.99% of doctors who just stayed quiet.
	That's right.
	And, you know, you never know.
	You never know.
	The case might get dismissed.
	You know, you just hold your head up high.
	Everything's going to be just fine.
	And then exactly one week later, we recorded the podcast again.
	And this time we're all jubilant and fist bumping and said, remember last week?
	Remember what I was saying?
	And he was like, yeah, we did it.
	Well done.
	I was like, well, you did it.
	So yeah.
	It just goes to show, even when it's the darkest moment, never give up hope.
	Keep fighting.
	Keep fighting and have that self-belief.
	Well said.
	And I love the fact that you speak about those personal principles that have also driven you and guided you over these years.
	And I want you to offer a little bit about yourself to our audience.
	But in the context, I just want to remind our audience, you're in the UK and the UK has cracked down on freedom of speech much more aggressively than has the United States government.
	The UK doesn't have, you know, obviously the First Amendment, that same structure of the Bill of Rights.
	And even across European countries, I mean, I think in the UK, aren't they breaking down people's doors and arresting people for mean tweets and things like that?
	That's happening, right?
	It is happening.
	I mean, it's actually crazy.
	I actually don't watch the news anymore.
	I don't read the newspapers.
	I will not consume their brainwashing propaganda.
	But of course, news filters through to me.
	People send me messages.
	People send me clips, things to read.
	And there's definitely a problem in this country.
	I mean, we do not have that constitutional protection.
	We don't have freedom of speech that is protected under the law.
	And some people might say, well, it does the Bill of Rights, Magna Carta.
	None of the judiciary pay any notice to that.
	Natural law, common law, it's all out the window.
	It's all their artificial legislation acts.
	And the reality is, yeah, people get even into trouble for reading silent prayer, for protesting, for a tweet.
	How many stupid things?
	As if there's not bigger problems to worry about, you know?
	Just a note to our viewing audience, your video box got really small there.
	That's a bandwidth adaptation issue.
	So for those watching, don't mind it.
	It will self-correct.
	I apologize, Dr. Malik, please continue.
	No, no worries.
	That's probably my bandwidth.
	So we've got a storm going on over here right now.
	So basically, you know, our government's a bit strange.
	You know, it's their priorities are not what you and I would expect it to be.
	You know, we have migrant invasion like you have in your country and much of the West.
	And these are illegals.
	We don't know who they are.
	We don't know where they're coming from.
	They could be criminals.
	They could be drug traffickers.
	They could be child traffickers.
	You name it.
	Terrorists.
	No, they're not worried about that.
	And apparently our Navy can't stop these little dinghies.
	We have a problem with big pharma poisoning the population.
	But again, no one seems to pay any notice to that and isn't worried about any of that.
	No, what they're worried about is a few people exercising their freedom of speech.
	So we're living in a very strange time.
	But Mike, you know that.
	I know that this is just the tip of the iceberg.
	I mean, fundamentally, look, there's a takeover of the West.
	You know, we're occupied.
	I sound very drastic and dramatic.
	But, you know, having awoken to a lot of the stuff that's been going on since COVID, I've realized there's a much bigger picture and everything's linked.
	Whether it's what they're doing to our skies, whether it's these bioweapon shots, whether it's the forever wars, the migrant invasion, the destruction of the West, our community, our society, the family unit, the mass abortions, 5G.
	I mean, I could go on and on.
	In a way, they're all interlinked.
	They're all interlinked.
	And it's all about dumbing us down, destroying our health, our community, our culture, our spirituality, our soul.
	And basically, you know, marching towards this one world, totalitarian state.
	I know I've jumped quite a few steps there, but this is what I've just come to a conclusion.
	Everything points to this.
	And as ludicrous and as bizarre as it sounds, it's the only thing that makes sense when you look around us.
	Because everyone, no matter how normal you might consider yourself, has to admit the world is bizarre and crazy.
	And nothing makes sense.
	That's completely true.
	Nothing makes sense.
	And what I love about you is you have a big picture view of things, as you just sort of demonstrated.
	And then the videos that you post, and I want to give out your website too, is Doc Malik.
	That's M-A-L-I-K.com.
	If we can put up his website there for a second, docmalik.com.
	There it is.
	And you can find folks all of his links.
	There's some of his channel links, et cetera, social media links, interviews.
	What I love about your message, Doc, is that you don't hold back.
	You're not, you know, clearly no one is controlling your voice other than you and God, I suppose, right?
	I mean, you are true to your humanity and you are courageous in your speech.
	So thank you for being that person.
	It's so rare today in any country, not just the UK, but also in the US.
	Yeah, I don't really feel courageous.
	I just don't understand why other people aren't doing what I'm doing.
	I know.
	No, I'm being serious.
	I don't understand.
	I just feel like I've woken up in the set of idiocracy.
	Have you seen that movie?
	I cite it almost every day.
	I mean, our elections are like idiocracy.
	Our Department of Education is just like right out of idiocracy.
	And Brando, you know, it's got what plants crave, right?
	So we know.
	So you know that scene where the main character is in the court case and he's trying to defend himself.
	And his own defendant lawyer is mocking him and colluding with the prosecution and the judge.
	And it's just mayhem.
	And if anyone's not watched it, you should really watch it.
	It's not a movie.
	It's a documentary, predictive as well.
	It's telling the future.
	That was created by Mike Judge, by the way.
	Right.
	Right.
	Well, respect to Mike Judge.
	But what I'm trying to say is, the problem is we are living in that world now.
	And the problem is so many of the authorities around us are those people who are characters out of idiocracy.
	That's right.
	Imagine reasoning with an unreasonable person.
	Straight away, the advice is don't do that.
	Now, just imagine if you walked off the street and went into a mental institute, mental asylum, and started arguing with the inmates.
	That's what it feels like.
	It's like, there's no point.
	There's no point doing this.
	So you're trying to argue with your medical colleagues about the dangers of vaccines.
	And in their blind ignorance and hubris, they actually look down at you.
	They think you're an idiot.
	They think you're a Neanderthal.
	Because how dare you question vaccines?
	Oh my God, like you idiot.
	But then you ask them simple questions like, can you tell me any long-term studies of vaccines against placebo, true placebo, saline?
	Can you tell me what an adjuvant is and why they have them?
	Can you tell me what the safe level and limit of aluminium is in the body?
	can you tell me how you can get rid of aluminium in the body?
	Can you tell me what effect aluminium has in the body?
	Can you tell me what the toxicity is of aluminium?
	You just start scratching the surface, and suddenly they won't have a leg to stand on.
	They don't actually even know what you're talking about.
	But then they'll get triggered and then they will mock you and just lash out and say, you are just, you're just a crazy anti-vaxxer.
	You're going against science.
	You know, these stupid labels that come out.
	And that's the problem, whether it's the media, whether it's doctors, whether it's scientists.
	There's so much hubris and arrogance, but at the same time, so much indoctrination and ignorance, it's almost impossible to reason with these people.
	Well, I wanted to ask you along those lines.
	At what point did you realize that your pursuit of knowledge and reason was incompatible with the British medical system?
	Yeah, that's a very good point.
	Try and keep it short, but basically it was stepwise progression.
	So when you're a junior doctor and you're chasing the dream of becoming the attendant and top dog and getting a big private practice and head of the department and, you know, all that kind of stuff, you're just chase, you're a hamster in the hamster wheel.
	So you're, you don't get to look at and think big picture.
	You're just the hamster.
	But then when I became the consultant attending, I was off the hamster wheel and started looking around me.
	And I was like, oh, wow, this is what it's like when you're the boss.
	Well, one, I don't have as much power and authority and autonomy as I thought I would have.
	Suddenly, I'm beholden to management.
	And the hospital management are very powerful.
	Wow, I didn't appreciate this as a junior doctor.
	Because when you're a junior doctor, you're under the attending and that's it.
	You don't see above that, really.
	You don't see behind the curtain.
	So that was a big awakening.
	And then, you know, when the management, hospital management come up to you and go, you know, remember, these aren't your patients.
	You need to do things our way, not your way.
	These are the hospital's patients.
	You start going, wow.
	Oh, didn't expect that.
	And then what happened was when I became head of the department, I was now privy to going to the meetings behind the scenes.
	And I realized it was all just about money and control.
	And it was all double speak.
	They would pretend that they were doing things for the sake of the patient when it was the complete opposite.
	And everyone would be sitting around the management table, just nodding heads and slapping themselves on the back for doing nothing.
	There would be meetings where they would be discussing the agenda and the minutes of the last meeting and then planning the next meeting.
	And that was it.
	Like nothing other than the previous meeting and the future meeting.
	It was just ridiculous.
	It was just stuff like that.
	I call that a self-looking ice cream cone, right?
	Yeah.
	And the corruption, the involvement of Freemasonry in medicine.
	Oh my God.
	Yeah.
	Big time.
	Really?
	All this stuff made me very, yeah, disillusioned.
	And then my father's death was diagnosed with cancer was very pivotal.
	So he got diagnosed with terminal cancer.
	And I tried to get him all the best care.
	I didn't know anything about what was going on with him.
	No one seemed to answer.
	And I really struggled with the medical system.
	And I was shocked because here I am, a consultant.
	And I now was seeing what it felt like to be a patient and a patient's relative.
	And it was horrendous.
	It's horrendous.
	They treat you so badly and they don't really care about you at all.
	And when I even asked my dad's oncologist, you know, on the day of his diagnosis, you know, is there anything we can do?
	Is there anything we can do in this diet?
	You know, there was no compassion.
	There was no empathy.
	She literally laughed and said, diet?
	No, of course not.
	Don't be silly.
	Wow.
	You know, and stuff like that, little trip trips.
	But one day, I came home and my dad was on his sofa, on my sofa, and he was up.
	It was 10 o'clock at night.
	I was like, what's up, dad?
	And he was like, oh, I'm just in pain, you know, son.
	I'm struggling to go to bed.
	But listen, more importantly, what are you doing?
	And I had a plate of food that I just warmed up and I was about to sit down and eat.
	I said, I'm just going to have my dinner now.
	And he went, son, you work six days a week.
	You're a busy man.
	You got a big practice.
	I went, yeah, you must be so proud.
	I went, mom, I worked hard for this.
	Yeah, I'm really happy.
	And he went, why, though?
	You leave the house before your kids and wife wake up.
	You come home after your kids are asleep and your wife's asleep.
	You're overweight.
	You got bags under your eyes.
	Let's be frank.
	You look like shit.
	You know, take it from me.
	I'm a dying man.
	There's no point living if you're living like this.
	And I swear to God, that was like a slap with a big wet fish across the face.
	And I lay there in bed thinking about what he just said to me.
	And he was right.
	I'm type two diabetic.
	I'm hypertensive.
	I'm significantly overweight.
	I'm exhausted all the time.
	I'm tired.
	I feel awful.
	Why am I doing it?
	And he said that.
	Is it the money?
	Is it the power?
	Is it you want to be a big man?
	What are you going to do?
	You're going to take this to the grave?
	And that was a wake-up call.
	So I, the next day handed in my resignation.
	Really?
	And I decided to, yeah, I decided that I wasn't going to work six days a week.
	I was going to work three, four days a week.
	And I was going to get a work-life balance.
	And I was going to go to sleep on time.
	I was going to reverse my type 2 diabetes and my hypertension, my fatty liver.
	My wife was overweight as well.
	So we started looking into things.
	We discovered intermittent fasting, got rid of seed oils, fluoride in the water, started distilling our water, started eating whole foods, heavily carnivore, found a local regenerative farmer and got all our meat from there, started making things in beef tallow and all that kind of stuff.
	Suddenly, I lost a ton of weight.
	Suddenly, I got all the energy back.
	You know, I'm hitting 50 next week and I feel better now than at any point in my life.
	I reversed my type 2 diabetes, my fatty liver, my hypertension.
	I'm not on any meds.
	I mean, sadly, my dad hasn't been able to see this because he died three months after that conversation.
	Oh, wow.
	And the horrible thing is, you know, if I knew then what I know now, I would have been able to help him.
	You know, I would have known about what Thomas Seafreed talks about, metabolic health, metabolic origin of cancer, metabolic ketosis, all of this kind of stuff, which I just didn't know about.
	You know, here it was, my dad chowing down carbohydrates and fruit and thinking it was great for him, but it was just fueling his diabetes and fueling the cancer.
	Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that, so I did that.
	So I got my, look, can I swear on this show, Show?
	You already did.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	I got my shit together.
	I got my shit together.
	Right.
	And in that process, I learned more about health and what it means to have a healthy lifestyle and a healthy living than at any point in my medical schooling or my undergraduate training or as my training and experience as a doctor.
	I remember sitting in a clinic with my diabetician.
	And when I said to him, oh my God, am I type two diabetic?
	And he goes, yeah, but it's okay.
	You can take metformin.
	I'm taking metformin.
	It's a really good drug.
	And he's overweight.
	Wow.
	Shirt top button can't be buttoned up because he's so overweight and he refuses to get a bigger shirt.
	And he's got a donut on his table.
	And I walk out thinking, seriously?
	What?
	Yeah.
	I'm thinking, why am I taking medical advice from a guy like that?
	And that's the truth.
	Most doctors don't walk the walk.
	They barely talk the talk, but they don't walk the walk.
	So, you know, at this point, you know, I'm now seriously disillusioned with what I've learned in medicine.
	And I've now started to apply what I've learned to my patients.
	So my patients are coming with achilles tendon problems, ankle arthritis, bunions, midfoot arthritis, fractures, you know, all that kind of stuff.
	And now my consultations start with, you know, tell me about your sleep.
	Tell me about your diet.
	What's your stress like in your life?
	Suddenly patients are telling me about their kids being bullied and their horrible bosses and all the stuff that's going on in their life and their horrible sleep patterns and their dysfunctional self-sabotage lifestyle.
	Wow.
	And I start spending time fixing that.
	And I actually look back at that as a training ground for my podcast because I would come home with these incredible stories.
	And my wife would be like, how do people tell you all this stuff?
	Like, why does, don't tell me how many people cried in your clinic today?
	I was like, five.
	How many of them were men?
	I was like, three.
	I was like, wow, how'd you get, how'd you do this?
	And it's because you spend time listening.
	Everyone's got a story.
	And this led us to the COVID era.
	I'm going to shut up now.
	Before we get to the COVID era, I want to comment on what you just said, ask you to expand on it, because one of the things that I've learned for doing this for 25 years is that all of the answers for good health are all out there.
	They all exist.
	They're all readily accessible.
	But people are disconnected from them, often intentionally, by the CDC or the FDA here in the U.S., by the pharmaceutical companies, by the government itself, local, state, federal government here in the U.S., your government.
	It's the same thing.
	I see that 99% of the health problems that people suffer from are self-inflicted.
	And I'm not blaming them per se.
	I'm saying that they lack the knowledge that, if applied, could resolve almost all of their issues.
	You see it every day at the shopping, at the grocery store in the shopping cart.
	There's diabetes, there's cancer, there's Alzheimer's, there's dementia.
	I'm looking at it.
	I know the ingredients.
	And it's like, you're just killing yourself, right?
	I mean, not that I say that out loud to people.
	I tried that.
	It doesn't go over very well.
	But people, well, I want your reaction to this.
	Did you find that people, I mean, the good news is if it's self-inflicted, they can make a different choice.
	They can change their outcomes like you did, like I did 30 years ago.
	Please speak to that.
	I can't disagree with any of that.
	I mean, that's why I'm working on my book, Doc Malik's Simple Guide to Good Health.
	And I'm not selling supplements.
	I'm not selling red light therapy.
	I'm not selling anything.
	I'm just selling knowledge.
	Because one thing I know is that 99% of what it takes to be healthy is about the choices you make.
	Absolutely.
	It's about discipline.
	It's about responsibility, self-responsibility.
	And part of the problem is, like you said, the ignorance, the knowledge of being without.
	Sweetie time.
	Smoothie time.
	This is a choice.
	This is a choice.
	Every day.
	Right.
	And the problem is that ignorance comes not just for the common man and woman, but even the doctors don't know what's best for them.
	They're totally indoctrinated.
	And it's going back to that idiocracy.
	You know, idiocracy in the future, you know, all the crops are dying because they're spraying like Gatorade or something.
	They think water is bad.
	It's for toilets.
	Water's for toilets, remember?
	Yeah, water's for toilets.
	So it's like that.
	The ignorance now is so severe that people have almost forgotten.
	And you just need to look outside.
	And, you know, if you are overweight, I'm not judging you.
	I feel sorry for you.
	And the reality is, you know, when I speak like this, I'm not looking for popularity because most people now are obese.
	So I'm talking to most people.
	And so what I say may offend most people.
	But the reality is, if you're carrying extra weight, if your waist size is large, you're at increased risk of diabetes, insulin resistance, strokes, heart attacks, and cancer and dementia and Alzheimer's.
	So, you know, they don't want you fit and healthy.
	They don't want you fit and healthy for several reasons.
	Because a fit, healthy, resilient, mentally and physically population is harder to govern.
	That's right.
	It will resist oppression and tyranny, and fight back.
	But a sick and dependent population is easily governable, easily manipulated, easily cajoled and controlled.
	And also, they farm us.
	That's why it's pharma.
	Literally, they are farming us from our sickness.
	If you look at, there was a brilliant table I saw, infographic, kind of picture of the United States with each state and what the top employment sector was.
	And in 1990, most states, it was manufacturing, then services, and then, you know, other things like healthcare.
	The vast majority.
	But now, 35 years later, almost all the states, the top employer, revenue generator, whatever, is healthcare sector.
	Which means, of course, sick care.
	It's sickness management.
	Absolutely.
	And all empires do this.
	What they do is they rape and pillage and exploit other countries and then they come back and hollow out the host nation.
	And that's what's happening to America.
	They're hollowing out the parasite.
	The parasite has had enough now of the rest of the world.
	Now it's come back and is engorging on the US and making it, you know, desperately sick.
	And the problem is, you know, is it going to kill it?
	That's the problem.
	You know, the problem is like in the West, in the UK, in the US, this parasite isn't like a little tick on the back of a horse.
	This parasite is like a bloated pigna sitting on the back of the horse.
	And it's weighing us down and it's making us sick and weak.
	And that's what we have.
	We have a parasite predator class draining us.
	Because look, if I could figure out what it takes to be healthy and turn around all my ailments, okay, this not that bright guy.
	And I teach this to my kids.
	You know, my kids were five when I was teaching them this kind of stuff.
	If my five-year-olds, you know, can understand what I'm telling them.
	Can you imagine every school telling every five, six, seven-year-old what it takes to be healthy, how to look after your body, how to feed it properly, how to fuel it, how to service it, how to maintain it, how to run it optimally.
	What a beautiful, healthy, resilient population you would have.
	And the thing is, the fact that they're not doing that is not because they don't know.
	It's not because they don't have the knowledge.
	They do.
	It's because they're not patriots, because they genuinely don't care about the people of their country.
	They are happy to farm us and profit from our misery and sickness.
	Well, that's absolutely true.
	And as long as the processed food giants and the pharmaceutical giants are dictating policy, they still control the FDA.
	They still control the CDC.
	They still control RFK Jr., frankly.
	I mean, he hasn't stopped mRNA injections, even though they're not backed by science at all, right?
	So as long as these institutions are in control, or these, what do you call them, parasite predators of these corporations, I submit to you, and I love your reaction to this, I submit to you that Western civilization is not sustainable, meaning it will fail.
	Like we, you know, here we are, Trump talking about things like, well, how do we compete with the rest of the world?
	Well, let's just charge them tariffs.
	Let's just have tariffs on everything, even 30% on the EU, you know, 25% on our ally, Japan, 25% on South Korea, another ally, 50% on Brazil.
	If that's the only way we can compete, something's wrong because we can't compete based on innovation, manufacturing, production, because our people are so sick, because we're thrust into a vortex of chronic degenerative disease that you are well aware of, that you're speaking about.
	That's why we cannot compete in the world.
	Until we fix the health problem, we can't solve economic problems.
	That's my position.
	What do you say?
	Yeah, 100%.
	And I would say behind big pharma and big agro and big food and big medicine actually lies the banksters.
	Absolutely.
	At the end of the day, follow the money.
	Everything comes down to that.
	Follow the money.
	And the banksters are the ones that are at fault with, you know, and this is what I mean, the big picture.
	I keep like figuring out, trying to figure out where is this problem?
	Where is the problem in the medical licensing boards?
	Well, yes, it is, but it's actually bigger than that.
	Is it in the judiciary?
	Is it our political system?
	Yes, yes, yes, but it's one layer even above that.
	Then, you know, we don't actually have a political system.
	They're beholden to hire people.
	You know, who's the deep state?
	The civil servant class?
	Who do they serve?
	The forever behind the scenes of the politicians, you know, who do they serve?
	And then, you know, where does it go?
	And it all leads to the money flow.
	You know, and the root of all evil is the love of money.
	And the problem is we have a system of fiat money, usury, this interest, this worthless piece of paper that we get charged interest to use and that we get taxed on as well.
	You know, this is the fundamental driving force.
	And they just want more and more of it and at any expense.
	And if it means hollowing out a country, they don't care because their allegiance isn't to America or Britain or anyone.
	Their allegiance is to themselves.
	They're transnational.
	They're globalists.
	They just care about themselves and their pocket.
	And now I think we're moving on from an era of capitalism and markets and making money and consumption to an era of control and consolidation.
	Because those people at the top, the predators, have got all the money now.
	They can print it for free.
	Like they've got the printing presses.
	They don't care about that.
	They have all the resources.
	And now with AI and tech, they can manufacture and do all the jobs.
	They don't need people anymore.
	So the next part of the jigsaw puzzle is, I genuinely think they would love to depopulate the earth because they just don't need us anymore.
	And if you even just listen to the way they talk and the big figures, they, you know, the mouth eaters, you know, we're just useless eaters.
	We just, we've got no purpose, we've no meaning.
	So let's just get them sick and die early and, you know, eventually infertile.
	And it's not even that.
	Like in the UK, I don't know if you know, but about a month ago or three, four weeks ago, they passed two major pieces of legislation.
	Do you know anything about that?
	Was one of them the anti-hate speech legislation?
	What are you referring to?
	I thought there was a big censorship law that went in.
	No, no.
	So basically, they have legalized full-term abortion.
	Oh, oh, whoa.
	Oh, no, I didn't know that.
	So if you're a viable fetus, it doesn't matter.
	Even at full term, you can be aborted.
	It's fine.
	And the next thing is the euthanasia.
	You know, the thing that goes on in Canada?
	So the medical euthanasia thing.
	So, you know what, if you're suffering from a bit of depression, you find yourself in debt, you know, blah, blah, blah, all that kind of stuff.
	Oh, don't worry.
	We care because we care, because your suffering will help end your life.
	You know, I mean, I'm not saying it's got that, it's got to that point now in the UK, but it's got to that into Canada.
	That's where it is in Canada.
	And that's where it will go to in the UK.
	So what I'm saying is they're now attacking the human being in the womb before they're even born.
	And they're, and they're also attacking you at the other end just before you die.
	And they want to speed you along.
	Because again, fundamentally, these people are anti-human and it's an attack on humanity.
	And, you know, I wrote a substack piece on the abortion issue.
	You know, God, there's so many topics to be on top of.
	And I have to admit, you know, this wasn't really on my radar until a few weeks ago.
	And I got really upset about it.
	You know, I've got three young babies.
	That's why I'm doing what I'm doing.
	You ask me, you know, about being brave.
	I don't think I'm brave.
	I'm just doing, I'm a honey badger and I don't give a shit.
	I'm fighting for my kids.
	What I don't get is why other people aren't honey badgers fighting for their kids.
	So anyway, you know, when I read about the abortion thing, I was absolutely flabbergasted and disgusted.
	And you know what?
	Look, I'm coming from a position where I just believe in God.
	I'm not religious.
	I gave up religion 20 years ago and I just believe in God, but I do believe in a maker and a creator.
	And I believe that we are all divine beings, you know, from God.
	And life starts at conception.
	And I didn't realize 250,000 babies were being murdered every year in the UK and over a million in America.
	Wow.
	And while I'm not against all abortion, you know, if the mother's life is in jeopardy, I get it.
	I get it.
	But this notion of, you know, my body, my choice, well, no, it is your body, but within your body is another body.
	Okay.
	That's another body inside you.
	And we are meant to judge a civilization by how they treat their most vulnerable.
	That's right.
	Well, if the unborn fetus isn't the most vulnerable of us, I don't know who is.
	You know, we do Pride Month because they're apparently disadvantaged and they're vulnerable and they're a minority.
	And, you know, we need to protect them and promote them.
	You know, we do all of this kind of stuff.
	But, you know, the unborn fetus, well, you know, we're now doing industrial scale mass murder and slaughter of babies that would make the Incas and Mayans and Babylonians look like child's play.
	Well, yeah, absolutely.
	And as proof that that is a unique individual that is inside the woman's body is the fact that the genetics of that unborn baby are different from the mother.
	They're not the same.
	And they are unique in the world.
	There's no other individual, unless it's a twin or twins, that has the same genetics.
	So yes, it's a unique individual.
	He or she is a unique individual.
	I want to show you something here.
	I was looking for this while you were talking.
	This gets to one of your earlier points about the economy.
	I did this cartoon.
	I used to do a cartoon series called Counterthink.
	Let's put it on the screen.
	I want to show you this.
	The mayor is announcing business is booming.
	And what's the business?
	Oh, Chemco, McJunks, Fast Food, No Mercy Hospital, Cancer Center, and Funeral Home.
	Wow, the economy is booming.
	The GDP is up.
	You were just talking about this.
	And if you look here, the year of this, 2006, you can barely read it.
	I did this cartoon in 2006.
	I did a whole series in 2005 through 2009 that was calling out pharma, the FDA, the vaccine industry, in a time when 99% of Americans thought vaccines were awesome.
	I want to acknowledge that.
	I want to just say something to you.
	Mike, I really want to thank people like you.
	People like you, Sherry Tempenny, people like Suzanne Humphreys, Roman Bistrianik, all of you folks who, and more, even goes back even further, who for so many years, if not decades, have been fighting this fight.
	Listen, I'm late to the party, and I just want to acknowledge that.
	I know, and I don't know everything.
	And I'm just trying my best.
	I'm trying to catch up.
	And I just want to say thank you for everything you've been doing.
	That picture is amazing.
	Well, I want to say thank you because it was very lonely to be just one of a very small number of voices in the wilderness when all of society was completely brainwashed into thinking that, oh, the FDA loves us and the drug companies want cures.
	They want to resolve health issues.
	That's why they spend money on research.
	You know, well, at least that's over.
	That's done.
	COVID woke up so many people to the truth about this that now my voice is even drowned out by so many others and I welcome that because now it's a chorus of people questioning this system.
	But this brings me to my question, Doc, which is, you know, the Western medical system, just like the Western financial system, is really only kept propped up by faith, not by reason.
	And that faith is collapsing rapidly.
	So what do you suppose comes next?
	I mean, you know, the UK medical system is not sustainable.
	The U.S. medical system, not sustainable.
	Can't afford it.
	You know, you can't spend 25% of GDP on taking care of sick people.
	At some point, you got to show people how to be healthy.
	We know, you and I, we know.
	Like, if they made you the equivalent Surgeon General of the UK and they made me the Surgeon General of the U.S., we could tell 99% of the people how to get healthy in less than a year.
	Easy.
	Oh, dude.
	Give me a week.
	But I won't because I don't have a wearables company.
	Do you?
	No, no, no.
	I have a swearables device that curses from time to time.
	But no, but see, that's my point.
	This system will collapse.
	But what's next, in your view?
	Where does it go from here?
	Yeah, it's a really good point.
	So, look, all of us, every single human being right now is in a relationship with an abusive government.
	You know, if you're in a relationship with an abusive person and you keep going back to them, they beat you up.
	And we've all seen it.
	Anyone who's been on the planet long enough will have seen someone, a couple having an altercation on the street, or you've heard of someone, one of your friends, who gets beat up or the partner cheats on them.
	And they go back and you go, what?
	What?
	That's that abused person who has such poor self-worth and has forgotten who they are and the strength that's within them.
	They keep going back to that abuser.
	Well, we are like that.
	The government is the biggest abuser.
	And we keep going back to the government.
	They are simply a legalized criminal outfit.
	That's all it is.
	And they have their heavies and they have their enforcement.
	They are not here to protect us.
	They don't do anything for our good.
	They serve other masters, including themselves.
	But most human beings allow the government to abuse them.
	Oh, their tax has gone up.
	Oh, okay.
	Oh, they've locked us down.
	Oh, okay.
	Oh, we have to take an experimental shot to work.
	Okay.
	So we empower them.
	Overnight, everything could be fixed if there was a global mass awakening and raising of consciousness.
	If we all realized the true innate, sovereign, spiritual, eternal beings of light, energy, and divine that we are, everything would fall apart.
	When the government says, we're raising taxes and we want you to take these experimental shots, you know, we would say, you know, in Battlestar Galactica terminology, frack you.
	And you know what?
	Nothing would happen.
	You know, their drivers would stop driving them.
	Their cooks would stop cooking for them.
	The journalists wouldn't pick up the phone when they wanted to write a hit piece on someone.
	You know, the police would say, no, we're not going to lock anybody up.
	You're on your own.
	These people would be in their yachts without any crew.
	They'd be in their castles without any staff.
	They'd be helpless.
	But we enable them.
	Absolutely.
	100%.
	And I want to mention it's fear and war that are used to distract people from the true nature of the love and the creative power that is within each and every one of us because we are children of God.
	And war is the tool of the criminal cabal governments that you and I are both talking about here.
	And I want to point out it was your country's own Boris Johnson in 2022 that convinced Zelensky to go to war instead of negotiating a peace agreement with Russia.
	We've been at war ever since.
	Over a million Ukrainian men have been killed in the process.
	Who knows how many Russian men have been killed?
	We're still in this war.
	Trump is announcing more weapons for Ukraine.
	You have now never hear Kir Starmer, who is also completely insane, in my opinion, an absolute war-mongering serpent lunatic of history.
	And we are literally, you and I are living, in our audience, we are living under the claimed rule of lunatics who love blood and ritualistic sacrifice of millions of human beings so they can gain power.
	Am I wrong?
	Bingo.
	And also, I think his name would be better if it was Kir Stalin.
	Kier Stalin.
	Yes.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Or Khmer Starmer.
	I'm not sure which one.
	But basically, let's go back to your original question.
	Like, what happens next?
	Okay.
	Like, isn't it just going to fall apart?
	All the sickness and health.
	Look, these bad people in charge have been in charge for a long time.
	Some could argue more than decades, centuries, maybe even millennia, maybe back to the Babylonian era.
	Who knows?
	I don't know.
	I don't know.
	But a long, long time.
	And this is what human beings struggle with because, you know, we struggle with like planning a week ahead of us.
	What are we going to do next week?
	Never mind planning, you know, generations ahead.
	Like that's incomprehensible to the average human being.
	But they do.
	This is how they work.
	And they know that their systems will eventually come to a failure point.
	So they engineer a revolution, a war, a cataclysmic event to reset the board, to reset the deck of cards, the chips and the table or whatever it is, and start a game.
	And they're very good at it.
	So that might happen.
	And that's probably because of, you know, past performance is a good indicator of future performance.
	You know, global war, pestilence, whatever, because of the technology, it might be a cyber attack.
	God knows.
	But something will happen that will radically change the face of the earth and they're still on top.
	It might be that they actually bring it down themselves because ultimately we are all mirrors of each other.
	They are a reflection of us and we are a reflection of them.
	If they are dumbing down humanity, they're also actually dumbing down themselves.
	And in many ways, they really are dumb.
	And they have so much hubris and arrogance.
	They are dumb as hell.
	Maybe the whole thing just collapses.
	But there is a third option is that, you know what, somehow, magically, humanity breaks out of this perpetual cycle, you know, boom-bust, and says no and stops this generational trauma that keeps inflicting us.
	Well, I'm hoping for that third option, but I wanted to ask you about your beliefs of the rise of AI robots, the replacement of human cognition with AI agents, the replacement of human labor with the coming wave of AI robots and automation in labor industries,
	and whether you believe that there is a global depopulation agenda that is being engineered in order to make way for the rise of replacement of humans.
	Yeah, I'll start with the last one.
	I think there really is.
	I think they don't want as many of us because they don't need that many of us anymore.
	And they don't like us.
	They're fundamentally anti-human, even though they are human.
	Well, some would question that.
	So I think they do.
	They do want less of us.
	They keep saying it.
	I mean, the carbon they want to reduce is really us.
	Okay.
	With regards to AI, look, I don't really know.
	Some people think that AI was powerful 50 years ago, and we actually have no comprehension of how advanced AI now is.
	I don't even know if it is intelligent.
	You know, even if they say it is, it mimics, it copies.
	I know some people say it creates as well, so it can be creative.
	But it's always going to be a copy of reality and nature and us, because nature and everything that's natural is a reflection of God.
	And AI is a creature of man.
	It's not God.
	So am I threatened and worried about it?
	Will it overtake humanity?
	I don't think so.
	But am I worried that it's going to be used as a tool and a weapon by the wrong people?
	Yeah, like I'm not scared of guns.
	I love guns.
	I'm a member of a firearm club.
	It's fantastic.
	It's who wields the gun that's scary.
	So AI could be used to help humanity, liberate us from mundane tasks and free up people.
	Like the biggest con is being sold this idea that you work 40 hours a week for 48 years so that you have 40 weeks of retirement on this bullshit pay and you end up in a care home dribbling and incontinent.
	You know, what is that?
	What is that?
	You know, that's a con.
	You know, we should be working.
	We should be working three days a week.
	And this idea that in the past, centuries ago, people were working so hard and never got any free time and they were serfs.
	Not really, actually.
	They had a good life.
	They had plenty of downtime.
	They didn't work day and night.
	There was time.
	How do you think they made all these beautiful medieval castles and sorry, churches and stuff in Europe?
	Like, you know, if they're all working their socks off during the day, how did they have time to do that?
	And those were collaborative efforts by the communities, by the way.
	Because they didn't have iPhones, so they weren't distracting.
	They could just focus on creating masterpieces of music and art.
	They weren't working anywhere near like we are.
	And the feminism was a lie to get women working just as hard as men and then using both salaries to pay for your mortgage and house and the bills.
	I mean, don't get me wrong.
	I believe in women having equal rights and equal opportunities.
	But I think feminism went way too far and it actually entrapped women and made them sex objects for men, to be honest, to be abused and so much more.
	But basically, what I'm trying to say is man and women have now been convinced into working day and night to feed the system.
	When actually we don't need to be.
	We need to spend time with our children, see our children grow up, spend time with our grandchildren, live our life.
	And AI has the potential to do that, like to take away all these tasks so that we work less and we are more productive.
	Technology is a good thing, but also a bad thing.
	It depends how you use it and who's using it.
	See, I like your take on that.
	And I hear from a lot of people in America that all AI is just evil and demonic and it must be banished, et cetera.
	But we built an AI engine and it saves me a tremendous amount of time.
	I can conduct research using AI in five minutes that used to take 50 hours.
	There you go.
	Right.
	And so I'm producing documentaries on things like DMSO that I could never have done before.
	But it's exactly what you said, Doc.
	It's that it's how we use technology.
	Either if we take charge and we use it to amplify and multiply our intelligence, our intention, then technology is working for us.
	We are the masters of the technology.
	But if we become slaves to the technology and we allow it to set our boundaries and limits and we allow it to take over our lives, well, then that's our fault.
	You know?
	Yeah.
	People have to make a choice.
	This is technology.
	I mean, even though my bandwidth might have been a bit low, you know, we're having a conversation.
	You know, I'm in the UK.
	You know, it's incredible we're even able to do this.
	True.
	This is technology and it's wonderful.
	I mean, the reason why I'm wearing these blue blocker glasses is it's quite dark now and the studio lights are quite bright, so I don't want it to disturb my circadian rhythm.
	But, you know, there's a significant time difference and distance between us.
	And look, we're having this conversation.
	It's incredible.
	Yeah, it is.
	So all tech isn't bad.
	It's how you wield it.
	Well, and even without tech, think about this.
	Most people still subject themselves as slaves to their doctor, right?
	So, I mean, they will say, doctor, you heal me, you cure me, you tell me what's wrong, you Measure my biometrics, right?
	I'm like, no, you should be paying attention to your own body.
	You should know what your pulse feels like.
	You should know what your digestion system is doing.
	How do you not know about the body in which you live?
	I mean, I don't know.
	That's just, I mean, maybe it sounds judgmental, but I'm like, I'm shocked that people are so dissociated from their own biology.
	No, you're not saying anything severe.
	Listen, listen.
	I always say to people, what's the most valuable thing in your possession?
	And they come up with my phone, my jewelry, my car, my this, my that.
	And I go, it's actually your body.
	I said, all right, take the car.
	You said your car is the most valuable thing.
	Right.
	So you service it, you regularly service it.
	You put the best fuel in it.
	You wash it.
	You clean it.
	You dry it.
	You look after it.
	Do you drive around and bump it and scrape it?
	No, of course you don't.
	Let's say if something does happen, at least you can take it to the garage and get it fixed.
	I'm like, guess what?
	You can't do that to the body.
	Imagine you put, instead of petrol gas, what do you guys call it gasoline inside your car?
	Imagine you put a gallon of orange juice in it.
	Would it run?
	What about milk?
	What about milk?
	What about even just clean water?
	You'd break your car.
	And I said, just to just look at how incredible your body is that God designed for you.
	That you can put all this garbage inside it.
	And you know what?
	It still runs.
	It still moves.
	It still thinks.
	It's actually astonishing.
	And if you look at food, you know, like you just need to walk through the airport to see the alchemy that takes place.
	You've got your burritos, your Texan food, your Mexican food, your fast food, burger joints.
	And it's alchemy.
	And what do I mean by that?
	Because they're using the same essential ingredients.
	They've got fructose corn syrup in there, ultra-processed glyphosate or enriched wheat, you know, with glyphosate-enriched wheat.
	Yeah, you know, like niacin and iron.
	They add all of this stuff.
	Glyphosate sprayed on it.
	It's all garbage, right?
	Ultra-processed.
	I apologize.
	We got to wrap this up.
	We're almost out of time.
	I know, but what I'm just trying to say is all that stuff that we eat and consume, and we still run.
	I know.
	It's amazing.
	It is amazing.
	The body has so much incredible wisdom and detoxification potential built in.
	So let me give out your website again.
	It's Doc Malik, M-A-L-I-K.
	DocMalik.com is the main website.
	And there you can get all of Doc's links to interviews and channels and social media, etc.
	And consultations.
	And consultations.
	Oh, and consultations.
	Yeah, here we go.
	Look at that.
	Okay.
	Very cool.
	And that's anybody in the world can contact you for consultation?
	Yep.
	Anywhere in the world.
	Okay.
	Awesome.
	Fantastic.
	Well, thank you, Doc.
	It's an honor to have you on.
	I greatly appreciate your work.
	I consider you a fellow warrior of truth among all of us human beings.
	And thank you for all that you do.
	Thank you so much.
	Really appreciate it.
	Thanks for inviting me on.
	Absolutely.
	Well, enjoy the rest of your late evening there in the UK.
	And I look forward to seeing your videos soon on social media and elsewhere.
	And thank all of you for watching today.
	This has been a fantastic interview here on Brighteon.com.
	But feel free to share this.
	You can repost this on other channels and platforms if you wish.
	Just give a link back to docmalik.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, the HealthRanger.
	Thank you for watching today.
	God bless you all.
	Take care.
	Thank you for supporting us at healthrangerstore.com.
	And we've got a new batch of turmeric in stock now.
	After a long search, the supply chains are really becoming more difficult.
	And turmeric, as you know, is often contaminated with lead.
	So of course, we do MassSpec elemental testing for lead, cadmium, you know, arsenic, mercury, and other elements.
	We found an ultra-clean batch and we have it available for you now.
	I have it on my desk.
	We've got turmeric root powder, certified organic laboratory tested, identity confirmed, all that.
	E. coli tested, microbiology, you name it.
	We've got it all for you at healthrangerstore.com.
	We do not have turmeric tincture back in stock.
	We're working on that, but we do have the turmeric root powder.
	And as you know, I, of course, I include turmeric root powder in my own smoothie, which is why it's orange.
	It's why my dental work turns orange, which freaks out the dental hygienist as well.
	But that's another story.
	Okay, so if you want really good, high-quality, ultra-clean turmeric root powder, we've got it now, healthrangerstore.com.
	We also have, yeah, there's the screen showing it to you.
	We also have acaxanthin.
	Acaxanthin, Hawaiian acaxanthin.
	We have it right now in stock.
	Of course, this is known as the king of carotenoids.
	This is a fat-soluble, super-potent antioxidant.
	And it's got a multitude of uses and benefits and support mechanisms for human health.
	Athletes use it.
	Lots of people use it.
	This is also what turns the flesh of salmon slightly pink.
	That's actually the acaxanthin that they're getting from their dietary sources.
	And it's believed to help support the natural athleticism and the endurance and stamina of salmon.
	That's just one of the many benefits of the king of carotenoids.
	Now, acaxanthin is in a dark bottle because it's sensitive to light.
	But it's very potent.
	You only need either two or four milligrams per day.
	We've got that available for you right now, healthrangerstore.com.
	We also have a supply of NAC in stock, N-acetylcysteine, which of course helps support the body's normal detoxification process with outstanding liver support and glutathione and so much more.
	So check it all out at healthrangerstore.com.
	Turmeric root powder, acaxanthin, capsules, as well as NAC, all in stock right now, plus hundreds of other items that are also certified organic, laboratory tested, non-GMO, and we don't use synthetic colors, fragrances, fillers, garbage, none of that stuff.
	Nothing like that.
	Ultra-clean products for home, for health, for personal care, for nutrition, and also for long-term food storage, for emergency preparedness.
	Check it all out at healthrangerstore.com.
	And thank you for your support.
	We appreciate you very much.
	We couldn't do this without you.
	Thanks for watching.
