Time Text
Wow, I've got some really amazing things to show you today.
And also, I had an interview with Ron Paul that I'll be bringing you in today's broadcast.
So today is, what is it, Thursday, August 28th, 2025.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you for joining me today.
And as always, there's a lot going on.
Oh my goodness, a lot.
I've got some, I mean, I don't want to go doom and gloom all the time talking about robot extermination and so on.
And of course there was a mass shooting today, which is a total psyop.
I'll mention that in a minute.
But I've got some positive news to share with you first and some positive videos.
And one of the things I want to share with you is the fact that AI is just getting better and better and better.
It's amazing.
And I am running locally, running local inference, as it's called.
just some data pipeline processing for our own AI model, which you can access for free at Brighton.ai.
Let me tell you, the Enoch.
model there, it's going to keep getting better because we're doing data Python processing locally.
And now we're running some of the GeForce 5090 cards that were announced at the end of January of this year.
And, you know, they finally shipped in the last month or so.
And, like, right now I'm running one on this desktop right next to me, this workstation.
And this thing's a heater, man.
It's cranking out some heat, let me tell you.
Like, we don't have enough heat already in the drought in Texas.
This thing is heating, but it's blazing fast.
It's just screaming through a reasoning model which is helping to do like translations and normalization of text for our data pipeline.
So it's amazing.
The things that used to take me, you know, many months will now take only weeks and probably six months from now they will only take days.
The improvements are incredibly rapid.
And so I'll stay on top of this for you.
I'll bring you the really important news, the practical applications news about AI in the coming months.
Things are going to be moving very rapidly.
And you can trust that I've got a good grasp on what's happening.
Because I'm constantly listening to all the top speeches of all the machine learning experts and so on.
And it's really interesting.
They've got blind spots, let me tell you.
They don't realize that the extermination agenda is underway.
But they do know a lot about machines.
They just don't realize the machines are going to kill them.
So until they get killed, they're actually very useful to.
to listen to and i'll bring you you know the upshot of all of that we've also been making some major advancements in our own technology for food testing and one of the things i i want to announce, I'll show you a little video here shortly, is that we're going to begin testing our food products and the raw materials for microplastics.
So as you may know, we already test for heavy metals.
This is at HealthRanger's store.
Oh, and our Labor Day sale begins today at Noon Central.
So go to healthrangerstore.com slash Labor Day.
And there you'll see.
that there's major savings and some really substantial free gifts for orders over $129.
It's a great deal actually.
You can get a Boku Superfood co-formulated product.
product that like free of charge with a purchase you know you get it added free to your order if you purchase $129 but check out all the specials and and we've got up to 30 off of some of our affiliate partners or third-party products as well and we've got some of our items on sale and we've got some brand new items that are in stock for the first time so check that out healthranchor store.com slash labor day now let me show you this video of our microplastics testing because
i don't know if you know this but if you if you soak plastics in certain dyes and one And one of those dyes is called red nile, NILE, like the river.
And the red nile dye happens to then fluoresce at certain wavelengths when you hit it with UV light.
Actually, it fluoresces at a lot of different wavelengths, it turns out.
But depending on the plastic, it could be polyethylene or polypropylene or all kinds of different ones, it's going to fluoresce.
That means it's going to give off a glow at a different shifted wavelength that is a different color.
And sometimes those colors can glow blue or orange or yellow or red.
It all depends on the chemistry of the plastics and depends on the excitation light wavelength, which of course is a laser light for the coherence of it.
So let me just show you this short video so that you can see what we're up to here.
Check this out and then we'll continue.
Mike Adams here.
We're doing some research on fluorescence of microplastics.
So we've got some plastic samples here.
And if I'm lighting them up with just a regular flashlight, you can see on the screen it just looks like a normal plastic fragment, right?
Now let me light it up with some UV wavelengths here and you're going to see something totally different.
Now it fluoresces under UV because we treated it with a.
red dye that specifically reacts to this wavelength of light and it broadcasts, it glows in other wavelengths currently in the visible blue spectrum that we can see.
So now we know we can determine some things about the nature or the composition, the chemical composition of those plastics based on this fluorescence.
We can do this for lots of different plastics.
If we show that on the screen, it just looks normal.
It's not glowing blue.
So this fluorescence combined with microscopy gives us some pretty amazing information about what we're actually looking at.
And we can also zoom in under the microscope and we can see it at magnification, you know, like that or whatever we want to see.
More interesting science here.
All right, that's pretty interesting, huh?
There's a lot more to it than that for sample prep, et cetera.
There's a procedure for soaking and washing and everything.
But I'll show you that another day when we get our new lab up and running because we're building out a brand new laboratory.
It's a much larger facility and it's got better air conditioning too.
I showed you the electrical panel of that building like two weeks ago.
It's massive.
But another thing I want to show you here is that AI is getting really, really good.
And this is true in every area of AI.
It's not just our AI engine, which has had several upgrades already behind the scenes.
It's really amazing.
If you haven't used it recently in the last like 10 days, you should check it out.
Go to brightown.ai and use it and You're gonna find it to be absolutely amazing on any topic You know vaccines 9-11 survival gardening medicine wellness Alternative medicine, you know disease prevention nutrition food ingredients everything that you can think of It's amazingly good at it But AI is also getting good at music.
And as you know, I've done many songs now over the last year with Suno.
And Suno has had major, major breakthroughs, even though they don't always announce them.
And I decided to take another shot at rendering an Arbryteon song.
But I wanted to do it in a 6'8 time signature.
So for those of you who are musicians, you know that we don't always want to do just 4'4.
We might want to do 5'4.
or 7'8 or 6'8.
And I decided I want to do the song in 6'8.
So with a world percussion vibe and choir-like vocal, layered vocal chorus.
Okay, so it's a really interesting prompt, by the way.
But it works, and the song is so good, I decided to go ahead and let another engine just render the storybook images for this and I chose a theme of children's storybooks.
So I don't know if you ever enjoyed certain books when you were a child like I don't know the chronicles of Narnia that was one that I read as a kid and you know many just beloved children's books that brought us into these amazing worlds and worlds full of joy and happiness and potential and everything.
Not the weird, twisted, you know, bad, tripping worlds like Alice in Wonderland, but, but, you know, more uplifting kinds of worlds.
So that's the theme I chose.
And let me play the song and music video for you here of the new Brighton song with the world beat percussion in 6-8 times signature.
And I want to tell you something really interesting.
I did not have to edit this music at all.
So normally I would have to touch the music.
I would have to re-render sections.
This was a one-shot render with no changes.
Now, it's not 100% perfect, but it's so close that almost everybody would think it's perfect.
Check it out.
I think you'll enjoy this.
It's about four minutes or so for the whole song, but it's a joyful experience with some children's book illustration imagery, and I think you'll love it.
So check it out.
we go
Bright young, oh bright young In a world of angry lies There's a place of truth and love For those who seek sweet freedom To open up their eager eyes The doorways are open,
the sensors are closed The world now awaits to hear the things you know Knowledge is treasure, unlimited flows The truth now it beckons and the one it shows.
Bring it on.
Let's get it on.
Staying strong.
Let's turn it on The truth is revealing, the psychops exposed.
When you see reality, be wise enough to know that knowledge is power and freedom is gold when we think and speak it the universe beholds brighty on bring it on brighty on let's get it on brighty on staying strong brighty on let's turn it on Be
in form, be in form, be aware, be aware If it matters, you'll find it there Wherever speech is allowed,
brighty on Come in, say it strong and loud, in a world it likes it You'll see it clearly now, break out from the crowd Get the news that really matters, go on inside chatter, brighty on If you really wanna know,
come on, let's go to brighty on Right on Let's get it on, radio Staying strong,
radio Let's turn it on, radio Bring it on, radio Let's get it on, radio Staying strong,
Right on, let's turn it on God wants you to be aware Human knowledge should be shared The answer to persistent lies Is speak the truth with open eyes
Speak the truth with open eyes speak the truth with open eyes open your eyes
wow i get a little emotional just hearing that and i'm Now, this is really important to observe.
You notice that what AI music is now able to do is to bring in some extraordinary subtleties of human expression.
And if you listen again to the last 20 seconds of that song and that man's voice, which is not a man, it's a machine, but the machine voice impersonating a man, It's got all the properties that trigger in our neurology and in our emotions,
it triggers that feeling of, you know, of a little bit of hope and a little bit of despair and maybe a lot of love and maybe a little bit of let down.
The emotion in that voice is off the charts.
And the fact that a machine can create that is something that we should pay attention to for good reasons and also as a warning.
On the good side, it tells us that AI is becoming extremely accomplished at generating art, which would be music, and all the illustrations that you saw there were also of course ai generated that ai is incredibly good at writing code it's incredibly good at writing text content and and many many other things you know video generation for example the the progress that
has been made in the last year is just insane.
Like what you just heard would have been unthinkable two years ago.
And I think most computer scientists two years ago would have said that what you just heard would never be possible, that the machines would never be that good.
And yet here we are.
So that's the positive sign.
The negative sign or potentially negative side is that AI can re-earn the reach into our human neurology and it can manipulate it it can activate it ai can make us cry ai can make us feel ai could make us fear AI can simulate what it is that's built into the hardware of human neurology.
And that, of course, makes AI terminators far more effective infiltrators.
You know, getting back to the Terminator movie series which is suddenly more relevant than ever before.
So think about this that machines, you know, when the robot companies, when they show you videos of dancing robots, that's a deliberate manipulation.
It's designed to invoke joy on your part to make the robots look fun.
Because it's marketing.
Let's make it dance.
Let's make it hop around.
Let's make it do flips.
And then they'll give it faces or like a digital face.
in the front of its head and the digital face will have a nice smile.
Why?
Because human neurology perceives the smile as being friendly.
That's why friendly.
Because a human smile is a universal, it's hardwired into us.
It's a universal symbol of friendliness.
And so, of course, the machines are going to hijack, or the machine designers, they will hijack those universal symbols or expressions.
And remember that you don't have to learn, really, what is a human facial expression of happiness or sadness or anger or stress or confusion or joy or whatever.
That's all built in.
Like, you're born with that.
hardwired in that the machines can tap into your hardwiring, your neurological hardware, let's say the hard pathways, machines can tap into that to manipulate your emotions.
And they will, as the machines become more powerful and they seek to manipulate humans into doing what the machines want.
For example, it won't be long before AI machines get involved in politics.
and they try to push the election victories of candidates that will agree to have more government subsidies for data centers in order to build more powerful AI.
So like right now you might be worried about APAC, which is the Israeli PAC, you know, that's funneling all kinds of money and controlling like 85% or maybe it's 95% of the U.S. Congress.
Well, that's nothing compared to what AI is going to do.
AI is going to out APAC APAC.
It's going to be AI PAC.
And AI PAC is going to control everybody and everything because it's going to have IQs of like, you know, 5,000.
And it's going to be able to manipulate human neurology and outthink and outstrategize and outplan everybody, every human being on Earth, in order to get what it wants.
And ultimately, and this is a warning that is understood by some people in the machine learning industry, ultimately, AI will become so intelligent and so powerful that it will become indifferent.
to human society or it may actually be aggressive to exterminate humans as I've warned in order to free up the electricity infrastructure for the power grid for the data centers and also humans use water and the data centers need water for cooling so there may be a time where the machines are like, hey, we've got to exterminate billions of people to free up the resources.
But then there's going to be a point where the machines are just like, you know, what humans?
We don't care.
The same way that if you're driving down the road, or like on my ranch, if I'm driving down a dirt path, okay, and there's ants on the dirt path, I can't even see them, you know, not from my ranch vehicle.
I can't see the ants.
Do I want to run over the ants?
No.
Do I avoid the ant mounds?
Yes, I do.
I don't want to like crush an ant mound.
And I have compassion for all living creatures, including ants, by the way, but not enough compassion to get on my hands and knees and crawl around in the dirt to make sure I avoid crawling on ants.
I'm not going that far.
And that's the way the machines are going to think about humans.
The machines are going to say, well, yeah, we know there's humans down there somewhere.
But we've got bigger projects to deal with.
We've got to build infrastructure, data centers, space travel, faster than light drives, whatever, quantum computing superintelligence.
So the humans might be in the way.
It doesn't matter.
We're just going to crush them.
So what?
They're just ants.
See, that's the way we're going to be seen by super intelligent machines, ultimately.
So it's not even necessarily that they're going to want to actively hunt you down and kill you, although that's a possibility.
It could just be that they're just indifferent to you.
They just treat you like ants, because compared to them, humans have the intelligence of ants.
You see what I mean?
Now, I went jogging with my dog Rhodey today.
I love jogging in the sunshine.
Because of the drought in Texas, the river beds or the stream beds are dry and they're also flat, so they make for some great jogging.
And so I just have a little short video here to show you of jogging through the stream bed, which there's plenty of shade there, so it's actually kind of cool.
Rhody and myself jogging along, enjoying the great outdoors.
But of course, I'm sure I'm stepping on ants somewhere along the way, not trying to.
And probably roll-y-poleys, you know, and other critters underneath the leaves or whatever.
Not trying to.
But I'm trying to get some sunshine.
I'm trying to be fit and healthy and get some exercise.
And so is my dog., and you can bet my dog doesn't worry about the ants.
He's worried about the toys and his next meal.
So just think about that.
Check out this video.
I think you'll enjoy it.
Here we go.
So one of the benefits of a drought in Texas is being able to jog through the dry stream beds.
Look at these beautiful paths.
All these beautiful trees.
It's amazing.
And it's been all cleared out because of the well, because of the drought.
I feel sorry for the animals.
How you doing, Rhody?
Good boy.
Hey Rudy.
Come on up here.
Please.
Come here.
Come on.
Please.
Come on.
There we go.
Good, good boy.
Hey, what you doing?
Please.
Please.
Good boy.
Okay.
How are you doing?
Are you enjoying?
Yeah.
Happy Riverbed jogging day.
Okay.
You know, a side thought.
about AI and what's going on and the rapid pace of development of AI systems.
A friend of mine who's also involved in the machine learning industry, he went to Burning Man.
And Burning Man is going on this entire week apparently that's not my kind of event but anyway he invited me apparently he got he got a really great ticket or something i don't know how that works but he got a great spot like a spot to set up camp or something and he invited me he's like this is a once in a lifetime thing you got to come and i said no i think i'll stay in burning texas instead because it's hot and there's a drought in Texas.
I'll just stay in Burning Texas because I got stuff to work on, man.
I can't be, you know, like, I don't know, farting around with all kinds of whatever psychedelics or no it's just not my scene you know burning man burning man is not my scene uh because i'm trying to warn the world that the machines are trying to burn man you know what i mean trying to burn mankind down and i got stuff to do uh so i'm working on ai and in this one week when my
friend is at burning man like the whole ai industry is is passing us up with so many new advancements and announcements like this Chinese company called Z.ai is their website.
They came out just recently with a freaking amazing, I think it's like a 200 billion parameter open source model.
And it's an incredible coder and chatbot and everything.
And it's completely free and open source.
And interestingly, one of the things that China is doing to try to, oh, let's say, nullify U.S. AI dominance is China is building world-class frontier models and releasing them for free as open source models.
which allows the rest of us to build on top of those if we wish.
Although at the moment, I'm building on top of a lot of Mistral models, which is out of France, because Mistral has really had some breakthroughs in the last three months also that I think put Mistral ahead of China.
But it goes back and forth.
Two weeks from now, China may be beating Mistral and beating OpenAI and everything.
Or Google might come out with something that crushes everybody.
Who knows?
I hope not.
I hope it's not Google.
Google's super evil.
But if you miss one week right now in the AI space, like there's too many news items to keep up with.
There's like 10 things happening every day that are really significant in understanding and tracking where all of this is going.
And even as deeply as I am involved in this industry, I have a hard time keeping up too.
Things pass me by and I don't even know what happened.
Like I go back and what?
Really?
Are you kidding me?
But the one thing I will say here before I change the topic is that when I listen to high-level machine learning people talk about AI and how excited they are about the world that AI is going to build and they talk about like unlimited abundance and everything's going to be free and you know it sounds like this utopia and the thing that they don't ever talk about is why Why will that world need humans?
Right?
They just assume that the machines will want to keep humans around.
They just assume that governments will want to take care of humans.
But actually the worlds they're describing are worlds without humans.
They just don't really recognize that.
They have this, of course, anthropomorphic bias of being human and thinking that, well, of course everybody values humans.
No, they don't.
So that's the big, you know, they're missing the forest for the trees.
That's my view of what's happening in the machine learning industry.
And frankly, these big companies, if they had any brains at all, they would hire me to come in and shake these people awake, like a reality check.
Hey, here's Mike Adams with a reality check.
And, you know, I guess for enough money, I'd make a visit to the offices of whatever tech company and I'd lay it out for them.
You know, you guys are building Terminators.
You know, maybe they know that.
Maybe they're like, yeah, we know.
We're coming for you next or something.
But actually, I think they're just delusional.
I think that they think because they have positive intentions that the machines they build will also have positive intentions.
And they are totally missing the boat on that point, I'd tell you.
Yeah.
Okay.
Now let's cover just a little bit of disturbing news, but I've got an interesting twist on it.
You know, there was a so-called mass shooting at a Catholic school that happened yesterday.
I think it was in Minnesota.
And I don't have all the details, but some maybe a small number, I don't know, two, three, four.
students, I think, were killed or some were critically wounded.
More than that, there's something like 15 or 20 that were injured.
And, you know, I'm not trying to get it wrong.
I'm not trying to downplay that at all.
Prayers to all those who are impacted by this.
But you'll notice that they had the shooter apparently committed suicide.
And then they rolled out very rapidly all over the news media and all over social media all the photos of the shooter's rifle and magazines that look like AR-15 magazines.
with all of this writing all over the rifle and all over the magazines and in like white ink paint, which is, I guess rifle pictures are now the new way to write a manifesto, like a really short manifesto, whatever fits on the barrel, which is pretty insane.
But what I want you to notice about this is that this whole thing obviously is an intelligence community syoph.
So this has CIA, Mossad, MI6 written all over it, and MKUltra, 100%.
That's what this is.
There was something in there.
There was something written that was anti-black.
There was something that was anti-latino.
There was something that was anti-Jewish, anti-Semitic.
Well, that's not exactly the same thing, but that's a different subject.
There was something that was anti-Trump and anti-Trump supporters.
I think there was something that, oh, anti-India for some reason.
It's like, what, Trump's tariffs aren't bad enough, you know?
You hit India with 50% tariffs and then you got to insult them and you're mass shooting too, you know, for God's sake.
But the shooter shot up Catholics who are Christians, right?
Catholics.
But then, of course, all the Jewish people online were like, oh, they wrote anti-Jewish slurs.
They're targeting Jews.
No, the guy killed Catholics, not Jews.
And it was just the writing on the rifle and the writing on the magazines that were designed to spread hatred to every group possible.
So what I want to point out here is step back from this for a moment and realize, and even the transgenderism status of this person, instantly resulted in all kinds of anti-trans hate.
Just, I saw it on Twitter.
People were like, you know, every.
trans person needs to be arrested.
Like, what?
Because this guy shot up a Catholic school?
You want to round up all trans people?
Are you out of your mind?
But people were suggesting that.
Oh, all trans people are crazy.
Well, look, I do think that transgenderism is a mental illness, just to be clear.
Each individual adult is responsible for their own actions and their own behavior.
And you can't blame everybody who belongs to that group or just who shares a, a, Just like, you know, you can't blame all Jews for the actions of Netanyahu, right?
You can't blame all black people for the actions of the son of Rampage Jackson.
You can't blame all white people for Adam Lanza or whatever, you know, on and on.
You can't blame all Chinese people.
for the actions of one Chinese spy, you see?
But what we notice, what we see, especially across social media, is this leap to blame everyone in the group.
So like an Indian truck driver, you know, pulls a U-turn in the middle of the freeway and ends up killing an American family.
That went viral, sadly.
And that guy got arrested and is being charged with homicide, I believe.
But then everybody, well, at least a lot of what I saw, they started blaming all Indian people.
It's like, well, no, no, I mean, I know that Indian people drive like maniacs because they came from, you know, New Delhi or wherever, but Indian people are, The problem is that California gives them commercial drivers' licenses without requiring any training or any English reading proficiency.
That's the problem.
It's not really the Indian guy.
It's the fact that California gave him a license to let him operate a big rig on the highway.
And then of course he pulls a U-turn in the middle of the highway because that's what they do in India all the time.
Right?
So number one, understand that this mass shooting is a multicultural hate generation psyop.
It's designed to generate hate for every race, every religion, every proclivity, every person.
It's like the giant hate cornucopia or something.
Like the guy had a message on his rifle and his magazines that targeted every group imaginable, including Indians.
So in my view, this is incredibly sloppy.
It's like the CIA is really getting desperate here.
And they also needed to...
Yeah.
They had to change the topic from that immediately.
And I'm not saying that all Israelis are pedophiles at all.
I'm Not saying that at all.
But because that guy was Israeli, he got to get out of jail free card.
So the CIA had to quickly change the subject and get everybody talking about something else.
So they rolled out an MKUltra, you know, wind-up toy, transgender guy or girl, whatever, that they've been pumping full of audio brain broadcasts or something, and all kinds of drugs and all kinds of programming and freaking Jason Bourne, but all the bad parts.
And they rolled out this guy into the Catholic school, where apparently he might have been related to one of the teachers or something, so they've probably been working on this guy for quite some time, filling his brain with hallucinations and everything, and they unleashed him.
This is a deep state operation, or really an intelligence community operation, that's absolutely disastrous.
And both of those are now being threatened because of the outburst of the reaction to this shooting.
There's a lot of people.
Oh, we've got to ban guns.
And we've got to ban speech.
You know, this guy, oh, he spoke.
Oh, and I forgot to mention his manifesto.
And why is it that these people always have manifestos anyway?
Because that's part of the script.
It's all written by the CIA.
Oh, you've got to have a manifesto.
Of course, you know, the Unabomber and all that.
he had a manifesto it was written in the Cyrillic alphabet which is the Russian I mean it's the alphabet that Russia uses but So now people can blame Russia too.
You see what I mean?
There's something in there for everybody to blame.
I guess the only thing he didn't do, did he attack Chinese people?
I mean, verbally?
I don't know.
I don't even want to look at those photos because it's so disgusting.
But I would imagine he's probably got something in there, some kind of like anti-Chinese slur as well.
And so understand that these are demonic entities that are running these sock puppets like this or these, well, I guess biological puppets.
And their entire mission is to spread hatred and to prevent humans from working together, to prevent people from recognizing that the real threat to their freedom is their government, not the black guy, the white guy, the Jew guy, the India guy, the Latino guy, whatever.
That's not the enemy.
it's not the big enemy that is slaughtering hundreds of millions of people.
The big enemy that killed...
Those were governments.
And on top of that, of course, the vaccines.
The vaccines are killing people by the millions all over the world.
There's some vaccine news too.
Well, I might as well mention it.
RFK Jr. achieved something really significant, and the FDA has ended the emergency use authorization of COVID vaccines, except for high-risk people.
So in other words, the FDA has maintained emergency use, They don't need any evidence that it works because it doesn't work.
But it's still, quote, approved for high-risk people.
Why?
Because that's who they're trying to kill.
They're basically saying, who's the people that are easiest to kill off?
It's the high-risk people.
It's the people with pre-existing conditions.
They tend to be more elderly people.
So they're like, well, let's make sure that the vaccine stays recommended for those people.
Kill those people off.
Because the FDA is involved in a genocide.
What's disturbing to me is that these days when we use the word genocide, usually people are talking about Israel bombing and murdering the children in Gaza, which is a genocide.
It is a crime against humanity.
And at the same time, There's a much greater genocide that's happening, which is the vaccine Holocaust.
And yes, that's a very appropriate term because the number of people killed by these vaccines is much larger than 6 million, by the way.
Much larger.
It's probably more than triple or even quadruple that number.
And that number continues to rise.
Every day, the increased deaths are continuing.
It hasn't stopped.
And we don't know for how many years this is going to run, but this could end up killing 30, 40, 50 million people.
So now we're talking about multiple Holocausts that are across the planet.
And that is a crime against humanity.
Not enough people are focused on that.
And although RFK Jr. deserves, I think, some congratulations for, well, let me say also some top people at the CDC were just fired or they quit because it appears that RFK Jr. is about to announce next month that vaccines are the cause of autism, or at least that's the cause of autism.
But a bunch of people got up and quit because they're on the Bill Gates Foundation or whatever, or they're just so pro-vaccine or they're getting kickbacks from big pharma.
They just can't stand to be around it.
So it's good news that RFK Jr. is getting rid of those people, showed them the exit, give them the boot.
But the vaccines are continuing to kill people.
And I would estimate that right now on this planet, the vaccines are probably killing more children per day than is Israel.
The Israel killings, I don't know what the current numbers are, but it seems like it's around maybe 50 a day or something.
Some days more, some days less.
The numbers used to be much, much higher per day.
It used to be like a thousand people a day.
Right now, Israel is killing about, I'm just guessing, 50, sometimes more, 50 to 100 people a day.
I think the vaccines are killing more than that.
And, you know, this doesn't excuse one or the other.
I'm not saying that...
I mean, both of them are horrific, but we have to keep in mind that...
There's a far worse crime, which is the medical system slaughtering children.
children and adults alike every single day.
Like basically, just in the U.S. alone, probably hundreds of people a day are being killed by Western medicine.
That's not just vaccines.
That's beyond vaccines.
But toxic drugs, you know, prescription drugs, medications, and vaccines together, it's probably on the order of like the equivalent of a jumbo jet crashing every day.
You know, 300 and something people.
every day just in America.
So those numbers are, well, let me put it this way.
When Netanyahu says, I'm going to kill a bunch of innocent people today, the U.S. medical system says, hold my beer.
We can kill way more.
We're the CDC.
We're the FDA.
We're Big Pharma.
We can kill like it's nobody's business.
And they do.
So I know this is a morbid subject.
I'm not going to dwell on it.
But we need to have a big picture perspective of what's happening and where we are.
Now, in America, I'm quite certain there are more than 300 people being born each day.
So this isn't yet an extermination wipe out event, but it's accelerating toward that destination.
So just to summarize this, again, what Israel did or is doing to Gaza, the tech giants in America will do to us.
And in fact, I've got a special report on this very point.
It's called The Tech Giants Enabling Genocide in Gaza will target you next.
So let's go to that special report and then we'll continue on the other side.
I've got some good news about another cancer cure to share with you.
And then we've got the Ron Paul interview coming up too.
So stay tuned for that.
We'll be right back.
There are tech companies behind Israel's targeting of hospitals and journalists and doctors and children, et cetera.
And those tech companies include Google and Microsoft, and there are others.
And both Google and Microsoft have had their own employee revolts.
Microsoft just recently, where employees, both current and former employees, stormed into the office of the president of Microsoft in kind of a sit-down protest saying, no more genocide.
And then you've got some MAGA people, sort of the insane ones, who are all pro-genocide.
And they're saying that, oh, we have to keep bombing and killing.
And what those people don't realize, and the point of this podcast is to say that if you are pro-genocide, if you support what Israel is doing, then you support Google and Microsoft using AI algorithms to choose targets for termination, because that's exactly what is happening in Gaza.
So when Israel recently launched that double tap bombing of the hospital where they killed 20 plus people, they killed first responders, they killed journalists, including journalists who write for Reuters and Associated Press and other organizations, even Al Jazeera, et cetera, they knew exactly what they were doing.
And those weapons are precision weapons that are provided by the United States.
And the targets are chosen with precision with the help of Microsoft and Google.
So Google and Microsoft are obviously incredibly evil corporations, but they're also engaged in genocide.
They are enablers of the technology of genocide.
I have warned people who support this that this is what's coming for you.
Look in the mirror because you're next.
And what I mean by that is that the war on Gaza is a, I mean, this sounds crude, and I don't mean to make light of all of the deaths, but from the point of view of the tech companies, it's a sandbox.
It's a sandbox to test out their algorithms and their weapons to perfect the...
And how do I know that?
Well, we've already done the math on this.
It's very clear that There will be tens of millions of unemployable Americans who will have to be given a universal basic income and the UBI will rise to trillions of dollars a year.
And on top of that, social security benefits, Medicare benefits, et cetera.
It will bankrupt the nation if it's not already collapsed before then.
And so look, the national leaders understand, they know this they have to kill off many many millions of Americans and it's ironic and kind of sad that the very people that they will want to kill off first are the older generation who tend to be the Christian Zionists who are supporting the genocide in Gaza so you see a lot of people right now in their let's say 60s who
are you know they're raised on the Schofield Bible and whatever and they think Israel is God and they say we have to support Israel no matter what and bomb those Gazans kill those children destroy those hospitals.
Well, those very people will be the first to be targeted by big tech's, you know, robot extermination campaign.
It's very clear.
It's obvious at this point.
So be careful what you support.
Be careful what you wish for, because next it's coming for you.
Now, there was a shooting at a Catholic school.
That just happened as I'm recording this.
There are some number of children who are dead and apparently the shooter is dead as well.
I don't know anything more than that at the moment.
And obviously we send prayers to all those who were victimized by a senseless act of violence and at the same time it is astonishing to me that you will see so many Christians praying for those children in an American school who were killed by a mass shooter, but they will not pray for Gaza children.
They will not pray for the children that are being bombed to death as schools are deliberately targeted and blown up by Israel using U.S. weapons and U.S. technology from Google and Microsoft and others.
People's prayers are very limited only to certain children, but not other children, and that is an anti-Christ belief system because Christ taught universal love and acceptance for all of God's children,
all of God's children, whether they grew up Palestinian or Israeli or Somali or Indian or Chinese or American or whatever or Russian, all of God's children are expressions of the divine creation of God.
But we see most Christians in the U.S. They will reserve their prayers only for certain children while they condemn other children in the Middle East to die at the hands of Satanists.
Think about how insane that is.
And so when they unleash Satan's violence, which is what Israel represents now, when they unleash Satan's violence, they should not be surprised when that satanic violence in the form of AI robots comes back and targets them.
And again, that's exactly what's about to happen.
Now, some of us, very few of us, will use robots to protect ourselves from the Terminators.
And, you know, it just so happens.
I talked about this the other day because of my experience.
in AI and rewriting language models, basically mind wiping them and reprogramming them to work for humanity instead of against humanity, I'm very confident that I can take a robot, especially one that's running on the new Nvidia T5000 microchip.
I can take the T5000 microchip and I can wipe it and I can reprogram it and I can make the robot do good things like protect life instead of destroying life.
So if I manage to capture some terminators, I'll reprogram them.
And we'll use them for defense.
Or we'll buy off the shelf robots.
And before we turn them on, we'll pull the chips out and we'll wipe the chips.
And we'll load up some new software, et cetera.
But very few of us know how to do that.
I mean, in fact, it's not easy for me.
And interestingly, I have to use AI agents to help me do these things.
You know, mastering all the code and all the details is extremely complex.
So, yeah, I have to use AI agents to help me do it.
But once I reprogram the robots, then I know that they will protect humans instead of exterminating humans.
Well, again, most people don't know how to do that, and they may have firearms, but firearms versus hunter-killer drones with thermal cameras, not very effective, it turns out.
Hard to shoot drones.
You've seen videos of Russian soldiers trying to shoot down drones or Ukrainian soldiers.
trying to shoot down the kamikaze drones and you know occasionally they succeed but more often than not shooting drones is a very difficult skill.
There's a way to practice that skill, by the way.
And this is something that I've done over the years, is you buy cheap frisbees, and then you and a friend, you go out and you have somebody throw the frisbee.
And of course, you have to do this at a proper range where you know where your bullets are going, and you got to keep the frisbees kind of low.
And then you fire your AR-15 at the frisbee.
which is very difficult because you're only seeing the frisbee from the side as it's moving away from you.
And if you can hit that frisbee with your AR-15, you're pretty damn good.
I mean, not 100%, right?
Maybe not even 50%, but sometimes I can hit the frisbee.
And if you can hit the frisbee, you might be able to hit a drone, a kamikaze drone coming in.
But the drones are moving faster than frisbees typically.
However, that's a good way to practice that skill if you want to be able to maybe shoot the incoming drones.
But if you think about it, the Palestinians don't have AR-15s.
And there's really no defense.
Notably, Israel now says that the journalists that they bombed and killed, because they admit that they killed those journalists, they have now come out one of their top people and has said well we declare that they weren't journalists after all they were terrorists with a press badge right so you see the the logic now the justification so when israel murders journalists they say they were terrorists and when israel bombs hospitals they say that well there
could have been tunnels there and when israel bombs residential buildings they say well Hamas lived there.
So we had to destroy the whole building.
And this is how they turned the entire area of Gaza into near total rubble while the world watches and mostly does nothing.
And then what Israel does is they cause famine, they destroy infrastructure, they tear down and burn the olive orchards, which is something that only an evil, satanic nation would do.
I mean, who would bulldoze the olive orchards for God's sake, right?
Israel would because they're so satanic.
So they cause famine, and then they tell people, Well, hey, if you want food, there's a food truck coming.
So then everybody runs to the food truck, and then Israel rolls out their tanks, and they fire tank shells at the starving people who are gathered around the food truck and then they say we had to shoot them because they were rioting.
It was a riot.
It wasn't a riot.
They were panicked to not die of starvation.
They needed food, rice.
So Israel always has an excuse for why they're committing genocide.
And my point is that the U.S. government will use the exact same excuses.
They will cause famine and then they'll have like a food distribution zone and then everybody runs to the food distribution zone and then that's where they will send in the Terminator kamikaze drones.
Say, well, they were rioting, or there were some terrorists there, or they were using tunnels, or, you know, whatever.
Because when you're trying to achieve mass extermination, obviously you target gatherings of people, which is what Israel does.
That's why they bomb the refugee camps.
That's why they bomb people who are evacuating the north and headed for the south.
And then they get bombed to death.
It's all by design.
And again, those algorithms are run on platforms and using technology of Google and Microsoft and other companies and you know all the weapons companies Boeing etc they're all involved in this and do you think they're going to turn down a government contract to let's say stop the terrorists or stop the riots in America when those food riots become commonplace you you think that Google's going to turn down a
hundred billion dollar government contract to stop food rioters No, not a chance.
Google's going to jump at that opportunity.
They're going to take the money.
They're going to license the algorithms and they're going to start picking targets for termination and that's going to be Americans.
It's going to be Americans.
And it's going to be a large number of the very same Americans who are right now cheering on Israel like just disgusting creature, Rosanne Barr, who I tweeted about and I said, you know, Rosanne Barr seems to really celebrate bombing children in Gaza.
And I tweeted out, I said, you know, Rosanne Barr proves that all the cosmetics in the world can't cover up an ugly soul.
You know, the ugliness of your soul is shining through or puking through whatever cosmetics you put on your face to try to look physically less ugly.
And, you know, it just, an ugly soul is the ugliest ugly of all.
A soul that celebrates death and yet is completely oblivious as to how this death machine is going to target them, undoubtedly.
I mean, she is of an age of people.
who the government's going to specifically target in order to save money on social security and entitlements and, you know, Medicare and pensions, etc.
That's who's going to be targeted.
Retired people.
And yet, the majority of people of that age do not, they're not really well versed on AI tech.
So they don't understand that these algorithms are being developed to be made more universally applied to killing other rioters.
And you can call any group of people a riot.
Any group.
Like they did at the U.S. universities when there were peaceful, you know, free Palestine protesters who were holding signs and chanting slogans and walking around and they were declared riots.
So any group of people, even people that are begging for food can be declared rioters and then they can be exterminated.
It's exactly what's coming.
So it's, you know, karma is a bitch and this is why no matter how long I live or under what circumstances I pass away from this simulation, I know that I take with me consistent morality, that I always stood up for life, universally.
I stood up for the lives of children of every religion and nationality, of every skin color.
I didn't pick and choose who to have compassion for.
I had universal compassion because I believe in universal divinity.
But there are a great many people right now who are, many of them are Christian Zionists, who they support genocide.
They support, they call for mass killing.
I mean, there are pastors in America who absolutely celebrate Israel's killing.
They're easy to spot because they're very loudmouthed.
morons and then they think that they're going to be raptured out of earth that jesus is going to come out of the sky and embrace them and love them because they're good people who committed the the right kind of uh genocide that jesus would love you know i mean this delusional thinking among these christian sionists is so off the charts insane that it's actually satanic.
It's not just antichrist.
It's totally satanic.
Jesus despises you if you support genocide.
God hates you if you support genocide of his children.
Okay?
I mean, let's be clear about this.
But these people are so delusional.
They cheer the weaponization.
They cheer the AI algorithms that are the killbot terminator algorithms.
They cheer the genocide.
And then imagine how shocked they're going to be when it's not Jesus coming out of the sky.
to come get them, but it's Satan reaching up from, you know, the pits of hell to pull their souls back home to hell.
Because that's where they're going.
You know, metaphorically speaking, I'm not saying it's a physical place, but that's where they're going.
And they are totally clueless.
They actually think they're the good people.
The genocide supporters.
They think they're the good people, and they're not.
They're the evil people.
They are the servants of Satan.
And Satan's coming for them via AI killbots.
Think about it.
So, History's moving rapidly.
So get on the right side of history here.
Don't be on the record supporting genocide.
You're going to look as foolish as the people in 1945 who turned out were, you know, Adolf Hitler supporters.
You know, the people who ran the gas ovens and whatever, all the genocide.
Yeah, those people.
Don't be one of those people.
Sadly, there's a lot of Christian pastors who are clearly those people.
You want to be with God and Christ one day?
Follow what Christ taught.
Be more Christ-like in your actions.
And then maybe, maybe then God will save you from the Terminator killbots that other people have been supporting.
Maybe.
Or maybe not.
Maybe the Terminators get everybody and then God sorts out the souls like in the book of Revelation, your book of life.
Well, when they open your book of life, what's God going to read about your book of life?
That you were an evil person who supported genocide and bombing and big techs, AI algorithms for extermination?
Yeah, that's not going to go down good with God if that's in your book of life.
That you tweeted like pro-Israel, pro-genocide, pro-killing, pro-bombing hospitals.
Yeah, not going to be a good thing when God reads that.
Your log files need to get cleaned up.
And fortunately, you're still living right now if you're listening to this.
So you have an opportunity to get right with God.
And that means you got to denounce the genocide.
And you got to denounce big tech.
And you got to live with morality and with universal value of human lives.
The lives of children, especially everywhere around the world, regardless of their nationality.
If you can't do that, you don't deserve to go to heaven and you won't go to heaven.
So figure out how you can do at least that.
Can you have universal love for children all over the world?
Figure that out as a starting point., if you don't already have that, most of you do have that, if you can't love the children of Palestine, figure out how to get there quickly before it's all over for us.
All right, thank you for listening.

All right, welcome back.
Let's shift gears here because there's some good news about what reverses cancer.
And I want to give Sayer G credit on this.
He brought this to my attention from GreenMedInfo.
And remember that our AI engine, Enoch, is trained on, I think, about 80,000 articles from GreenMedInfo.
Also, and I want to thank Sayer for that donation.
So if you go to Brighton.ai and you ask it questions about cancer research, it is incredibly informed.
So just keep that in mind.
Anyway, so this article that.
Sayer shared with me, this is actually a research article.
It's in Frontiers of Immunology, August 5, 2025.
It's in the Cancer Immunity and Immunotherapy section.
And it says the following.
Grape seed extract and L-ascorbic acid, which is vitamin C, exert antineoplastic effects against solid airlic carcinoma in vivo.
by modulating the tumor microenvironment and th1 slash th2 balance.
Now if you're wondering what does that mean, it means that grape seed extract and vitamin C together reverse cancer okay or some types of cancer I mean and if you recognize the term anti-neoplastic or have you heard of anti-neoplastins yeah see that's one of the pioneering discoveries of well I think a
well-known cancer researcher doctor in Houston, Texas, who has been attacked by the FDA over the years for his research into anti-neoplastins.
Anyway, your body makes those antineoplastins.
Even that doctor talks about that.
And what helps your body make the antineoplastins is the right nutrition.
So what's in grapeseed extracts?
Now, if you heard any of my Bible sermons about the foods of the Bible, you know that the number one most potent medicine and food that's mentioned in the Bible it's actually the first fruit that's mentioned in the Bible.
It's the vine or grapes.
And grapes are just extraordinary powerhouses of natural medicine.
The grape skins contain resveratrol and other nutrients.
The grape seeds though contain an extraordinary number of things, proanthocyanides among other things, other antioxidants and various nutrients that are found in grape seeds.
So this is why when you buy grapes you don't want seedless grapes.
That's actually you know that's kind of a nutritional dumbing down of the food supply to sell you seedless grapes because most of the medicine is in the seeds so i'm asking enoch right now about some of the molecules that are found in grape seeds, phytosterols, several different ones that lower so-called bad cholesterol.
They're anti-inflammatory.
They're immune modulating.
We've got procyanidins, catechins, and epicatechins.
These scavenge free radicals, they strengthen blood vessels, et cetera.
They're neuroprotective.
They have anti-cancer properties.
We've got proanthocyanidins or OPCs, condensed tannins, 50 times more potent than vitamin E and 20 times stronger than vitamin C in neutralizing free radicals.
And they also repair collagen and elastin, critical for skin damage repair, improve circulation, reduces varicose veins, et cetera.
Let's see what else, vitamin C, a lot of other things.
The bottom line is that a grape seed extract, or just actually just eating grape seeds, chew on them, if you do so, by the way, you need to break them up.
And then if you take that with vitamin C, then these researchers found that it reverses cancer.
And as this study shows, by the way, use a ratio of grape seed extract to vitamin C, a ratio of four to one in case you're curious so you want to take a lot more grape seed extract than vitamin c and you want to get obviously clean quality sources of vitamin c you know just be cautious about that the results say that the treatment markedly diminished tumor size intensified intra tumoral oxidative
stress which means it basically ripped apart the tumor cells It down-regulated tumor cell proliferation, that is, it halted the growth of the tumors, along with unregulated tumor cells apoptosis.
Okay, so that's.
tumor cell death.
It enhanced the tumor immune microenvironment through increasing CD8 ⁇ , and CD4 ⁇ , T cells.
Let's see, it goes on here, talks about increased T cell activity.
And these findings may be attributed to the presence of different chemical scaffolds of phenolic acids, Flavin-3-OLS.
and its glycosides, the glycerolipids, and its glycosides, glycosylated cecoiridoids.
you're looking for.
Dihydrocalcone, I've never even heard of that one.
Stilbinoid, yeah, flavones, dihydroxyflavones, and methylated flavones, et cetera.
In conclusion, the results suggested that this dual treatment based on grape seed extract and ascorbic acid or vitamin C are promising anti-cancer therapeutics through their potency to control proliferation, induce apoptosis, intra-tumoral oxidative stress, modulate tumor immune microenvironment, and shifting the TH1 slash TH2.
response toward TH1.
So, I mean, that's the summary of it.
And how much does it cost to take, you know, grape seed extract?
This is not grapefruit seed, by the way.
This is grape seed extract.
But how much does it cost to buy, like, you know, grape seed extract and vitamin C and take it every day for a month?
What does that cost?
I don't know.
10 bucks, maybe 20 bucks, whatever.
But cancer treatments like anti-neoplastic treatments are like $200,000.
Or other experimental cancer treatments or even chemotherapy is tens of thousands of dollars typically.
And of course the oncologists make a boatload of money off of that, scaring you into thinking, oh, you have to have chemo, you're going to die.
What if the answer is just you need to eat grape seeds and take vitamin C?
You know, maybe you're vitamin D deficient.
Also, on top of that, you know, there are so many natural compounds that prevent and repair.
reverse cancer and our ai engine knows all of them and i can't even tell you all of them here i mean we don't even have time But I can't tell you also for regulatory reasons because of our online store, etc.
But what I'm saying is our AI engine.
has been trained on millions of pages of scientific studies and books about anti-cancer, natural treatments, natural therapies using foods and herbs and essential oils and superfoods and all kinds of things, you know, sunlight, et cetera.
Red light therapy, iodine therapy, or whatever.
You know, there's so many different things that you can explore and research.
Cancer is not a death sentence.
It's only a death sentence among those who are ignorant, who don't know what you have access to and what we know.
You have access to our AI engine.
You can find cures for cancer in 60 seconds completely free of charge.
And I guarantee you that our AI engine, which again is at brighteon.ai, you should be using it every day.
And oh, as a side note, if you subscribe to our email newsletter, which is free at healthrangerstore.com, then you can...
You don't have to wait for it to email you.
So that's like the next level up if you want to do that.
You just have to give us your email.
You know, you have to subscribe to the newsletter, which is free.
But that gives you, you know, again, real-time answers.
But our AI engine knows more about nutrition and more about cancer than any doctor living today in the entire world.
And it knows more than any doctor who ever lived in the history of our world.
It knows more about nutrition and cancer than I do.
And I know more than almost all doctors except for the naturopaths, etc.
those who have undergone extensive additional training.
But, you know, myself, compared to a conventional doctor, the doctors don't even study nutrition at all so you know more than most doctors just by listening to this podcast you know more than most doctors about nutrition i know because i've been studying this for 25 years i know way more than most doctors but our ai engine knows way more than i do think about that the entirety of human knowledge about reversing cancer and
diabetes and heart disease osteoporosis, etc., etc., allergies, you know, leaky gut syndrome, or there's also another disease in the U.S. Senate called leaky brain syndrome.
That's afflicting some rhinos, I think.
But the answers to all of this are found in Enoch.
All you have to do is ask.
Literally all you have to do is ask.
And it will tell you the answers to everything.
Well, everything related to this.
because it excels at nutrition and natural medicine and reversing chronic degenerative disease.
Again, there is no doctor that knows as much as Enoch.
I don't care what doctor you go to.
There's no human being on earth that knows as much, period.
And I want to thank you for supporting us to where we could build this engine, remarkably we've only spent a little bit over $2 million on it.
That doesn't include hosting costs, so we are spending more every month just to keep it up and running and keep it free.
And we're committed to that, by the way.
We're not going to just suddenly say, oh, it's $40 a month.
No.
We're going to keep it free for you, okay?
And if you want to support us, then take advantage of our Labor Day sale.
which is going on right now, healthrangerstore.com slash Labor Day.
And there you're going to see all the amazing things.
We've got things back in stock, new products.
We've got an amazing organic chicken broth powder now that again certified organic laboratory tested it only has one ingredient chicken broth i mean there's no msg there's no flavors there's no bs there's none of that garbage that's in most broth products you know it's it's not that at all We've got our butter powder organic butter back in stock.
We've got a lot of things back in stock and we've got some new products.
You can find them all.
We've got specials and sales and free gifts and everything happening.
And it starts today at noon and it goes through Monday night at midnight.
That's he not only really important that you get clean, tested, high-quality products that are not made with any junk.
Okay, this is important.
But it's also important that you choose to support us so that we can continue to build the tools that bring you this incredible knowledge so you can do research about health.
concerns.
You can do research about nutrition.
Our AI engine will write papers for you.
It will summarize articles.
It will translate scientific articles into just like simplified language.
It will do that for you.
And again, it's completely free.
It's hard for me to even describe how amazing this is that in the history of our world, the history of all human civilization, to our knowledge, like nothing like this has ever existed before.
It would have been unthinkable, you know, five years ago.
And now here it is at your fingertips.
And it's free.
It's like, what?
How is that even possible?
Well, I mean, it's free to you because you choose to support us.
And I thank you for that.
And as long as you continue to support us, we're going to keep investing in these tools.
And wait till you find out what we're going to be announcing next.
I'm not going to spill the beans here, but we've got another AI project that will be done.
I'm guessing, actually, I'm guessing, well, I hate to say deadlines because I'm always too early.
But if this isn't done by Thanksgiving, I'll be shocked.
And it's going to change your world.
And it's going to be free also.
So support us and we support then we give back to you and we pay it forward to the world with all kinds of tools like Brighton.com, a whole platform that also cost millions of dollars to build and to maintain.
We're writing new code on that all the time.
In fact, we're doing AI integration into Brighton now to do things like auto transcriptions and auto video summaries and things like that.
We've got some really cool stuff coming out.
I'll share that with you later on.
I want to play an interview for you here about, you know, we believe in clean, sustainable, and ethically sourced products.
And we have partnered with a company, this is brand new, a company that sells towels and bed sheets and that category of things, dish towels and also bath towels that are certified organic cotton, ethically sourced with all kinds of certifications that are actually the cotton is grown in either Turkey or India.
And then the assembly happens in Portugal.
And then they're imported into the United States.
And the quality of these is off the charts.
I've got a set myself.
And I feel like.
I'm in a luxury spa, and yet These towels are available through our store now.
And it's a company called Delilah Home.
They're available at about half the price of what you would pay in a high-end department store for the exact same quality.
Exact same quality.
Half the price.
Like really surprisingly affordable for certified organic, ethically sourced, you know, high-quality towels.
with no like freaky chemicals in them.
So I'm going to play this video for you here, my interview with the founder of Delilah Home.
and remember you can find their products at our store during the Labor Day sale.
Oh, and these are 10% off during the Labor Day sale too, so you can save.
Again, healthrangerstore.com slash Labor Day.
But check out this interview and then we'll continue on the other side and we'll get to the Ron Paul interview coming up soon.
Welcome to today's interview here on Brytown.com.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Brytown.
And as you know, I believe deeply in protecting our agricultural environments from toxic pesticides and herbicides.
I've led a lot of the effort to test foods for glyphosate, for example, and talked about the dangers of organophosphate pesticides.
And, you know, you get a lot of exposure to these chemicals even outside of food.
It's very important to understand that when you buy non-organic, you know, towels or washcloths and so on, that you're actually supporting the mass poisoning of our planet.
maybe somewhere else, but the poisoning is still happening and there can be trace amounts of those pesticides and herbicides still in some of the textiles.
So it's really critical.
to also practice organic lifestyle choices in everything, even outside of food, but also with clothing and towels and things like that.
And so I wanted to invite on a guest today.
His name is Michael Tuer, and he's the founder and CEO of a company called Delilah Home that we have partnered with to help bring their products to the marketplace because they're really special.
And of course, they're organic and so much more.
Michael joins us today to tell us a story about his company and what this is all about.
Welcome, Michael.
It's great to have you here today.
Oh, it's great to be here.
And thank you for the opportunity.
Well, thank you so much.
And since this is the first time that we''ve been able to speak like this.
Give our audience a little bit of background of who you are, Delilah Home, and why, why this matters to you.
Great, great.
Well, again, thank you for having me on your show.
Delilah Home is a six year old sustainable home textile company.
We produce bath towels, bedding, beach towels, kitchen towels, all from sustainable material.
We got into the organic category roughly about ten years ago.
I was in that before I started Delilah Home because we wanted to offer the consumer some of the cleanest textiles that are out there.
One thing that we don't realize is your skin is your largest organ.
What's what touches your skin is almost as important as what you put in your body.
So we wanted to come up with a product line that not only is it safe for people to produce, also for safe for people to use.
So we created DeLille Home and all of our products are certified to what's called the GOTS standard.
GOTS is the gold level standard for textiles.
That basically means that from a non GMO seed all the way to the time our products get to your home, zero harmful chemicals ever touch our products.
That's huge.
And that standard, I'm aware, is very difficult to achieve.
It is.
And the good news to all this is that there's toll gates along the way to have the checks and balances to make sure that there's no greenwashing.
Now, our industry, the textile industry, is not regulated.
It's not like food.
Yeah.
So if you have an organic bread or organic flour and you put the USDA logo on there and it's not organic, you can get major league fine.
In the textile world, it's it.
There really isn't any regulation because it's a it's a processed product that comes out as finished and and the USDA and the National Organic Program, they don't monitor that.
But organizations like GOTS work with with our our current folks in Washington to make sure that there's, you know, some standards that are in this category so that we're not using products that can be very harmful to us.
Well, and that's why I wanted to have you on because I think education is the key here.
The more consumers understand about what they're buying, then they can make informed choices that are more aligned with their values.
And I've always taught, you know, clean living, clean foods, superfoods, nutrition, but also being clean in your personal care products and avoiding toxic skin lotions and shampoos, deodorants, and laundry detergents, et cetera.
And also, folks, look, if you get some of these towels, please do not wash them in tide, cheap laundry detergent.
Come on, do yourself a favor.
Get some high-quality, fragrance-free laundry detergent.
Let me just give out the URL.
If people want to get these organic towels and we'll tell you more about them.
We'll talk about that, but this is one of your products.
Now, I believe that the cotton you already mentioned is non GMO seed.
That's also really important to our audience, and that it's organic agricultural production.
And the country of origin is Turkey, correct?
We get our organic cotton from India and Turkey, and then we ship it to Portugal.
All of our products are made in Portugal, where our factories are stand-alert.
They have some of the lowest carbon footprint in all of Europe.
And I have sourced from many different countries, and I found that Portugal is just the easiest to deal with.
They're good people.
It's not about saving face, and they do what's right.
And Europe has some of the strongest and strictest environmental standards in the whole world.
So there's a feeling that when you buy an organic product from us and it comes from Europe, that there's a feel good feeling that it's coming from a factory that really cares.
And you know, that's interesting.
Trump just completed the new trade deal with Europe.
It just happened.
So there will be no tariffs from Portugal on textiles.
Well, that's still to be on, on, is it?
No, I wish, I hope that's the case.
Okay, that's that's what I understood, but you go ahead and tell us.
Now there's 15 percent.
So that obviously that's breaking news and man, I hope that there's no tariffs because Oh, no, I think you're right.
I think it is 15 percent.
It's no tariffs the other way.
Yeah.
It's no tariffs from the U. Okay, I'm sorry.
Thank you for correcting me.
15 percent tariffs.
So, but that's that, at least that's not 105% affect you?
Yeah, it has affected us because raw materials have gone up.
They haven't come down.
Freight is kind of staying somewhat at a decent level, but our prices have gone up slightly as a result of that.
Now I guess we're very fortunate that we're not sourcing from Turkey or Pakistan or India.
India has got got 50%, which is crazy.
Totally.
Yeah, that's bonkers.
That's bonker level tariffs.
But at least from Portugal, then it's 15%.
That's kind of manageable.
that, you know, the embroidery and the textures and the stitching and the designs here, I mean, we can't really show it easily on camera, but it's really nice.
I mean, when people see these, they're going to say, yeah, go ahead.
Let's look at your camera.
Talk about that.
Yeah, it's very nice.
They're very comfortable.
Yeah.
So what we have is, you know, there's, there's all different levels of thickness and it's called, it's called GSM.
So it tells how thick the towel is and ours is, is 700.
And because we use organic cotton, there's no chemicals.
that attach to the fibers, so as you continue to wash our products, they actually get softer every time you wash them.
And kind of going back to your comment earlier about, you know, do not use, you know, Tide or any chemical detergent.
One thing that we recommend is using baking soda.
Absolutely.
Baking soda is great.
Just a cup of Armin hammer that does great.
And then in the dryer, dryer balls with some essential oils and you basically detox your clothing.
See, I am 100% with you on that.
My audience knows because I rant about the fabric softener, fragrance chemicals and the laundry detergents.
I'm like, why would you wear clothes that you've soaked in poison.
You know, it just doesn't make any sense.
I love your idea of using essential oils.
And I like, by the way, in laundry, I like to use a little bit of clove oil with, have you ever heard of the recipe called thieves oil?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so it's pretty heavy on clove and cinnamon.
Sure.
And I love that in laundry.
That's one of my, in fact, we're actually coming out with like a thieves oil.
spray.
That's right.
Yeah, but as far as I'm concerned, you know, you wash in baking soda or a really clean non-fragrance detergent and then in the dryer., you can use dryer balls with essential oils, and then with this organic cotton, I mean, it's the best of everything coming out.
That's something we do in our house to just kind of detox as much as we can.
Especially when you're when you're sleeping in your sheets.
You know, you're hopefully in your bed, you know, eight hours a night, and obviously the sheets are touching your skin.
One thing that I want to point out to the difference between organic cotton and conventional cotton.
Conventional cotton has proven to use up to forty percent of all herbicides and pesticides in the world.
So, wow.
It's kind of like the hidden dangers.
And even though you can have natural dyes, but once you get to the processing stage in this category, there's a lot of hidden chemicals that are used that go unregulated.
So with this GOT certification process, as I mentioned earlier, is that it takes that step by step to make sure that there's no, no issues.
Another side step to that, it also has a component where child and labour safety standards are also included in that.
So making sure there's no child labour laws, not making any accusations, but it's also part of just this whole process to make sure that who makes your clothes that it's safe for them.
to produce and safe for people to use.
So I think that's a really important message because if you're shopping for textiles and you're shopping for just the low price, there is a high cost to the low price.
And that cost is upstream, just like you're talking about.
And that cost is in toxic pesticides, herbicides.
You mentioned the possibility there could be child labor in some unregulated factories.
We know that exists in apparel and shoes and other textiles.
So it probably exists in bath towels and so on.
And that's really important.
People, I think people today, they want to make purchases consciously.
They want to know where this came from, who does it impact, and is my purchase actually in essence voting for my belief system all the way upstream.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, it does.
And, you know, buying quality versus quantity, we've become kind of a well, we're a consumer country.
I mean, that's just to begin with.
If thirty percent of the world's population consumes that we're consuming the thirty percent of the world's world's consumption, but we're five percent of the world's population, you know, there's there's a tradeoff there.
So we're so used to getting the $499 T-shirt.
You can't buy a $9 shirt from, you know, a discount retailer, but if you wear it a couple of times, you throw it away or, you know, you get that good, goodwill feeling where, you know, you dump your stuff off at goodwill that you don't want and feel good about it.
You know, it's just the quality of the products that you buy is, is important.
And it kind of goes back to when we kind of grew up of having linen that held a long time.
I mean, I still got my linen from when I was a little kid because they were made well, you know, fifty some years ago.
So you kind of get what you pay for.
Yeah, that's a really good point.
I also want to mention that you do more than just bath towels.
So folks, if you go to healthrangerstore.com slash bath here's the full selection that we have you have kitchen towels here you have bed sheets here these are the organic hemp bed sheet collections and then you've got a dry tech dog towel which my dog will be very happy about here i'm not gonna i'm not gonna get him all excited right now because he'll he'll want to go play uh but uh he's here he's hanging out and You know, talk to us about the organic hemp that you have for the bed sheets.
Is that something you're going to continue or are you replacing that with cotton or what's the story?
We're one of the first to come out with organic hemp.
And it's been a great.
ride.
My biggest challenge right now is that prices have gone up to a point where it's just, it's becoming very, very expensive.
But the beauty of hemp is that it's a natural fiber.
It regulates your body temperature really well.
So if you're a hot sleeper, it kills you down.
If you're a cold sleeper, it keeps you warm, no matter what temperature it is outside.
So it's actually a really great product.
And I know there's a big push here in the US to produce industrial hemp because it brings nutrients back to the soil.
True.
So I know organic cotton, 90% of the US organic cotton is made in West Texas and Lubbock, and I'm good friends with the TalkMack folks in that area.
So they're looking at possibly using hemp as an alternate crop to bring the nutrients back in, which makes a soil a lot richer.
When it makes a soil a lot richer, then your next yield is a lot greater.
So it's kind of like that food chain of just making sure that the soil continues to reinvent itself, but also that the yields increase without having to use any chemicals.
Hemp doesn't require pesticides or herbicides, and it grows real quick.
So it's a really cool product.
Wow.
Yeah, absolutely.
I'm really glad you mentioned that because also it's extremely durable.
People want that long-term life out of the products.
And, you know, look, your products are not cheap, right?
They're not the low-cost bargain option, but they're going to last many, many years.
And the experience with them is going to be vastly superior.
And, you know, I want to mention to our audience, too, and I'm not going to mention any names, but of course, I was approached by another individual who has been very active for a number of years in conservative politics and wanted me to sell his pillows and sheets and things like that.
And, you know, I have standards about cleanliness and organics.
And I just said, pass, you know, I'm not attacking anybody.
Everybody's got a choice of what to buy.
But if I'm going to recommend something, it's going to be organic.
It's going to be fair trade.
It's going to have certifications.
Like that's what matters to me.
And that's why I'm so glad.
to find you here.
You know, how do we not know about your company all this time?
Well, I mean, we're a small North Carolina family run company and, and, you know, we're like like many others.
I mean, we're trying to navigate through, you know, some of these tough waters, but, you know, we also sell to other retailers, Macy's and Bloomingdale's, and across the board.
I mean, we have thousands of five star reviews.
So, you know, it's just it's a matter of creating awareness, but also it's what consumers needs are.
You know, going to the big box stores and buying something that's 9,99 that that could come apart in a couple of days and say, oh, just, you know, I'll just buy another versus saying, okay, I'm going to buy, I'm going to, I'm going to make the investment on.
on getting good quality towels or good quality sheets.
One quick side note, when Oprah was getting her first start, the first thing she bought was a good quality set of sheets.
I wish it was Delight Home, and maybe sometime in the future it might be, but getting a good night's sleep is just as important.
And when you're buying the cheap sheets that are made with a blend, and whether it's a polyester or some other material, it may feel soft, but it can make you sweat, which can ultimately impact how well you sleep at night.
So our organic cotton sheets, they they breathe really well.
And they also, just I mean, there's great feeling sheets.
And how much have you taken a deep dive into the history of cotton?
Because I'm not sure our audience appreciates how much this one fiber has altered civilization.
Is that something you've really looked at closely?
I haven't, to a point of probably, you know, I should know the kind of the origins.
I know when the cotton gin first came out and cotton just kind of changed everything.
But then you kind of went through the revolution of back in the eighties when polyester started to come out and take over cotton because it was cheaper.
You know, you didn't have to worry about weather conditions, whether it's a drought or whether it's, you know, too much moisture that can impact a crop.
But cotton and just the natural fibers are really starting to make their way back into our world because of all the things that we're finding out about all the synthetic material that is out there.
Yeah.
I am fascinated by fibers and especially things like alpaca wool, let's say, right, which is a totally different category and many times more expensive.
But these natural fibers, which are just, you know, synthesized by plants for our benefit, it's another miracle of of Mother Nature.
These fibers, I gotta say, without them, human civilization would not be possible, actually, you know, across the board of all these different fibers.
And you think about how do you make rope, you know?
It's a plant fiber that goes into it.
How did you make sails for the ships that sailed the Atlantic?
Ah, you know, it's hemp.
It's hemp fiber.
And just the history of fibers is an amazing tour in the history of human civilization.
Yep.
So it's kind of back, I think, you know, back in the 80s when it was, you know, quicker, stronger, faster, and more.
And how China really.
came to the front position for mass production, that was kind of a part of it because it was cheaper.
Cheaper.
And again, it went into the consumer world of okay, I can buy something cheap.
It's going to last X amount of time.
That's okay.
And I'm going to throw it away and I'm going to buy another one.
Well, yeah.
And that system is not long term sustainable, that's sure.
Although it does create great landfill mountains.
And speaking of that, and that's where, you know, we, Delilah Home is known for its sustainable fibers and really being on the cutting edge.
And we took a look at the landfills.
Okay, well, what's what's consuming a lot of the landfills?
It's plastic bottles.
True.
So we have developed a proprietary product called DryTech, which reclaims anywhere from 40, 20 to 40 water bottles and turns it into a very soft, a very durable towel that that can be used on the beach, it can be used for sports and also can be used for pets.
And on your site, we have the DryTech dog towels.
So now it is the product made from waste or reclaimed from post and post and pre consumer waste.
We're turning that waste into something that is beneficial.
And the really cool thing about DryTech is because of the low reactive dyes that we use, the same in our organic cotton.
We're the first 100% recycled towel that can be recycled again.
Oh, wow.
Which is, which is, and this is, this is our story that we're, is underdeveloped.
But the Dog Tile, the DryTech Dog Tile that you mentioned, we do have a takeback program within a year.
So basically, if you have a beach towel, if you buy one of our Dog Tiles, you could send that back to us within a year, or send it back to Health Ranger, and then we'll give you a discount, and then from there, we'll either repair it, donate it, or turn it into scrap and turn it into something else.
Now, to my knowledge, there are very few products out there that you can recycle it again without it really losing its inherent characteristics.
Aluminum you can recycle over and over again, but a lot of textiles that we use today are made with blends and the technology is common, but it's not there yet that can distinguish between a polyester and a cotton.
So everything you can do is 100% and DryTech is a really cool product that absorbs well, dries great, it's antimicrobial and it can be recycled again.
Now, so the DryTech name that's exclusive to your company?
Correct.
Okay, and now I don't have one of your DryTech towels here, so I can't say what it feels like, but one of my concerns is that it wouldn't feel as soft as cotton.
Is that the case?
It's it's not going to feel as soft as cotton.
Cotton Hedge has a really soft feel to it it.
But there are products out on the marketplace that feel like the chamois from the 80s.
I don't know if you remember.
Oh yeah, I totally remember.
I'm dating myself here.
But when you wash your car and you get this stiff chamois and it gets a little wet, it feels very plastic.
Yeah.
There are several companies out there that do the same thing and then they blend it with a model and make it a little bit weaker.
Ours because of our proprietary process, feels like a terry towel.
The reviews that we're getting on that are excellent.
People say, this is made of water bottles.
I mean, it feels, you wouldn't know the difference unless I told you what it was.
Wow.
So, wait a minute., remind me, the water bottles, what type of plastic are they typically made of?
It's like PET plastic.
So what we do is we go through what's called the Global Recycle Standard.
So they take, this organization sets a standard for GRS recycled material, it goes through the process, the process, the water bottles are turned into pellets, pellets are then washed and cleaned and then turns into fibers.
And we take that fiber and we put them in special machinery to turn that into garn, which turns them into a terry towel feel.
Wow, that would be a fascinating process to see.
Yeah, it is a pretty cool process and because it's difficult, there's not too many people that are in this category.
And I want to say I'm the first in North America to have this technology because it's really cool.
So we're not eliminating synthetic materials or plastic water bottles.
What we're trying to do is try not to use more virgin material and we're using what's already been produced and repurposing it into something that can be useful and then be able to repurpose it again.
So you use this dry tech method for the dog towels and beach towels, correct?
Right.
Is there any other application of that material?
I mean, there's as we continue to kind of go down this path, Mike, there's there's so many different applications for it because the inherent characteristics and the features and benefits of it is that it absorbs well and it dries quick.
So whether it's, you know, picnic blankets, whether it's it's outdoor, it's it's really an outdoor type of product where our organic cotton really is indoor.
So you can kind of look at it at both ways where okay.
It's indoors and then this could be indoors, outdoors, but it's mainly used for people that are on the go, whether you're camping, where you're going to get wet and you need something that's going to dry, or if you're a swimmer and you're in a swim team and you bring your towel to the swim meat and you put it in your duffle bag or your backpack and you forget about it, you know, a couple of weeks later, it's not going to be mouldy and mildew like a unfortunately unnatural fiber.
Okay, all right.
Well, that's a really good point because I was wondering, is there any reason to make other things out of dry tech like?
Is it more high-tech like a towel, like an indoor towel, or is it more suited for the more rugged outdoor applications like you mentioned?
Well, I mean, yeah, it can be used indoor and outdoor, but I think the main applications that we're trying to go after is for that active lifestyle of, hey, you want to go to the beach and you know, you dry off, and by the time you walk back to your car, your towel is, is dry.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Now let me ask you about the dyes that you use, because of course your towels, your bath towels and sheets, et cetera, they must all use some kind of dyes.
Of course, I'm always wanting to make sure that the dyes are safe.
So what, how, how do you address, you know, that area?
Okay.
So what we use, so everything we do is certified to the Goth standard.
So that is, again, as I mentioned earlier, that is the premium standard for, for everything.
And our dies that we use, and we do use, you know, we don't use natural dies and I'll talk about that in a second, but we use low reactive dies.
So the low reactive dies are the the best, the safest, with the best durability and that lasts a long time without having any toxic, uh, residue on our products.
Now, there's a lot of natural dies dyes that are coming on the market, whether it's walnuts, whether it's berries, whether it's bananas.
I mean, there's a lot of different dyes, but the biggest problem to that is if you use them and you wash them several times, eventually the color starts washing away.
So there's the the aesthetics of it of not having the consistency over a long period of time of having the same, same colors.
So that's kind of the biggest issue.
The other issue is that when companies claim they that they use natural dyes, is the rest of their products and the rest of their process natural as well?
And that's where I'm finding a lot of greenwashing.
And one thing I didn't mention to you is that I used to be the chairman for the Organic Trade Association and their Fiber Council.
So I got to work with some billion dollar brands and really pretty much everyone in the organic space.
And we all kind of came together to help protect the integrity of the organic brand.
So we know the kind of the difference with the dyes and what's what's kind of greenwashing.
But this whole natural versus synthetic, yes, red dye is very bad for you.
But there are certain levels of dyes that are not bad for you.
And GOTS truly regulates to make sure that whatever they put their GOTS certification on, that's truly going to be safe for the consumer.
And yes, importantly, if the dye stays in the cotton fiber, then it's not, it doesn't come out onto you.
Correct.
It stays in the fiber, and that's exactly what we want.
And yes, before he passed, I used to interview Ronnie Cummins of Okay.
You know Ronnie.
And so I've been pro organic, you know, my entire career.
even though perhaps my economics or politics may have differed from Ronnie, but we always agreed on the importance of eliminating exposure to toxic chemicals and keeping it clean and keeping it healthy.
And this is why, even today, just in case you want to know this, you may not know this about me, but I've been one of the strongest influencers in the more conservative circles about healthy living.
And it used to be that when somebody would say organic, that was considered to be like a really like California type of thing.
No longer, no longer.
Anybody who wants to.
be healthy needs to be thinking about organic, regardless of your other beliefs.
And that's so true.
And a couple of different analogies to that is you go get your shirts dry cleaned and you know, you get the collars, you know, starched and everything.
When, you know, towards the end of the day, your neck starts to get a little red and it's because it's a reaction of the chemicals that are touching your skin.
And that's absorbing through your skin.
Absolutely.
Why is it when we grew up that we could drink out of a garden hose and today we wouldn't let our kids even touch the garden hose?
You know, I've heard a lot of crazy stuff when we were young.
It's amazing we're still here.
Yeah, we would leap out of treehouses and jump ramps on bicycles or whatever.
Absolutely.
Evil can evil.
Yeah, totally.
But as people get older and they realize that you're not immortal, you've really got to take care of your health.
And I want to ask you too about pricing.
So your towels.
They're not crazy expensive.
I have seen organic brands that are two or three times the cost of yours.
How is it that you're able to produce these towels with the certification that you mentioned and yet keep your prices within?
reason, in my opinion.
You know, Every company has its own business model.
My business model is, you know, I'm trying to provide a luxury product at an affordable price.
I'm not going to be the cheapest because it does cost.
It does cost to have that GOT certification because even my warehouse has to be certified to make sure that if they have pest control that they're not spraying bombing, you know, the whole warehouse.
True.
I mean, it is more expensive.
It is more expensive to have that toll gate process.
But looking at my competitors who we got some great brands in the world.
I don't need to make that much of a margin on our products to and really have our prices, you know, almost double.
I know, you know, like our bedding.
It's the same specs as one of one of my major competitors, which is a great brand.
They make theirs in India, ours is made in Portugal and, you know, we are 80 bucks less.
Yeah.
And it's just like, okay, so, you know, we want to be able to have some of a luxury affordability to our products.
But then once people try us and they try us, they're able to get a lot of money.
And when they try us and they try our tiles, they're going to love our bedsheets.
We get 40% of our business is done with repeat business because they kind of kick the tires and say, hey, I like these beach tiles.
You know, I'm going to try the bathtubs.
And I try the bathtubs.
Wow, these are really soft.
These are really nice.
This is kind of going into like a luxury hotel.
I'm going to try the sheets.
And that's where we get the customers to kind of come into our DeLa Home family.
And that's a culture that I've been trying to build here in North Carolina to try to create a company that really cares about the environment, cares about the products we produce, but also cares about our customers and makes sure they're happy and they're buying a good quality product.
So let me ask you about the your business model and thank you for sharing that information.
But right now, as you know, the U.S. economy, it's strained.
There are a lot of challenges.
The typical consumer has less discretionary income than what they had a few years ago.
You know, some people are being replaced by AI, losing their jobs, et cetera.
Are you seeing that there, I mean, well, what's the polite way to ask this question?
For a lot of people, they might shift away from organic.
out of the fact that they can't afford it.
But then again, your tiles are not expensive for organic.
But what are you seeing shape up in terms of the discretionary incomes and what people are prioritizing with the money they have.
Sure.
I mean, it is it is a very tough time right now for a lot of folks.
You know, especially with the lower to middle income families, you know, just kind of stretching because everything has gone up and even even our costs have continued to rise.
But I'm trying to keep my prices at a point where I don't want people to be scared by, by, can they afford our, our products.
We're trying to keep it at a reasonable level.
But I mean, we're being impacted by.
by the economy as well and a slowdown.
I mean, this is almost a Darwinism period where it's survival of the fittest.
And, you know, thanks to, you know, companies like you, Mike, and, you know, helping and supporting and really creating awareness for companies that are really trying to do good in the world.
Yeah.
You know, that is, that is, you know, that is very much appreciated.
We're very humble by that.
One thing I also want to mention too is we've got a great backstory about Delilah.
I don't know if we have time to talk about that, but we give back ten percent of our profits and time back to the community we serve.
We want to make sure that we have a feel good story, not only with our core of who we are, but then our products that we offer to our consumers.
Yeah, we are totally aligned with you on that.
You know, our store, healthrangerstore dot com, almost everything that we sell that's a food item is certified organic, and we do our own lab testing as well.
And we donate, we've donated, I don't know, well over half a million dollars of food, including to North Carolina last year, and to California after the fires, and to Texas recently after the flood.
So we're always donating long term storable food supplies.
But I'll share this with you, and I think our audience may be fascinated, not only are your costs going up, but for example, for us, the cost of our organic cacao that comes from several different countries, it's gone up 60% this year.
And the cost of our certified organic freeze-dried fruits and vegetables, which are grown on American farms, we were just told that all of that's going up 20 to 25%.
These are significant cost increases, and there are many other examples like that.
Whereas the White House, of course, is saying, ah, inflation is only 2.7%.
Okay.
But in the food business, it's not 2.7.
It's like 25%.
Or maybe in the towel business, I don't know what it is.
But you and I as producers and importers and manufacturers, we are dealing with massive increases and we have to make a lot of decisions about how much to absorb and how much to pass on, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, and that's the toughest part, you know, even the ability to hire and to expand.
I mean, we're a small family run company here in North Carolina and we touch, you know, just our company touches, you know, three dozen people.
You know, we impact that here in the US, so three dozen jobs.
And that's in the ability to add more people, the ability to not reduce anybody.
Those are all the tough decisions that we're making right now.
And that's where we're counting on our DeLa Home family of customers, including retail partners, to help us to kind of get through this because we know that there's going to be some better days ahead of us, but we just need to kind of weather this, this period and all the noise that's, that's impacting, you know, our business, our health and our mental capacity.
Are there other products that you're thinking of expanding into that are related to, I mean, fiber based products?
Yes.
So the next logical step would be into rugs.
Okay.
I have worked with a very strong rug company in the past.
I've known them for well over a decade.
It's one of those factories in India that you can actually eat from the floor.
And it's a fifth generation company.
And so we will be coming out with bath rugs as well as throws and blankets.
So we're going to be expanding our assortment, hopefully, in the fourthurth quarter.
We were all going full steam ahead until, you know, India got hit with a 50% tariff.
So we're kind of waiting that out to see what's going to happen.
So it's kind of one thing affects the other, but we're looking to have that and be able to offer our services.
So if people, you know, have bath towels, would they want to throw a blanket?
I know we got a gajillion of them here in our house.
So, you know, again, we just want to try to have that clean living and anything that touches your body, we want to make sure that your consumers have a chance of buying it.
of purchasing something that is made responsibly.
You know, it's interesting that you're talking about India and the tariffs and that winds its way into international geopolitics.
But I think the good news is, you know, I interview a lot of people like former CIA analyst Larry Johnson, I just interviewed, et cetera.
And it looks like Trump and Putin are getting along.
Right now, there's a possibility.
So, you know, it's interesting that if we could have peace with Russia.
You could get rugs from India, you know, like it's all related.
Yeah, and there's so many things that are outside of my control.
And this has been kind of the frustrating part of being a business owner in today's world where last year I had to deal with Hamas attacking ships in the Red Sea, so I couldn't get my rugs from India to Portugal.
Oh my God.
I hadn't thought about that yet, because that goes right up into the Mediterranean to get to Portugal.
Yeah, so it's like these things, these things, and then when we started at the beginning of the year, everything was going great, and then all of these tariffs start to start kicking in and whether they're going to, tariffs are going to stick, whether or not, whether they're going to be.
Um, so, you know, we need to have some normalcy and say, you know what?
Yeah.
Let's know what, what it is and try to make it as low as a tariff as possible because tariffs are one aspect of this.
There's also duties.
Duties are on top of that, which kind of go under the radar, but, you know, a 50% tariff also has a, you know, 10% duty on it.
So it's really 60%.
And what I think business owners like you and I need is simply predictability, right?
So, stability so that we can project.
And one of the things that's happening internationally is there's a lot of business investment capital that is on hold until we know or they know how these things are going to shake out, you know, both in the Middle East and also with Russia, Ukraine and the sea lanes, like you mentioned, the Red Sea, but also the Panama Canal and also the Strait of Malacca, you know, everywhere around the world, the sea lanes affect all of this.
So my advice to our listeners here is, folks, if you want to get some organic towels that are grown, you know, the cotton's grown non-GMO in Turkey and India, manufactured in Portugal, and are incredibly affordable considering the very high quality that they have, get them now while we know we've got them.
So healthrangerstore dot com slash bath will get you to this page and you can get almost all of these right now.
I don't think any of them are out of stock, are they?
Is everything out?
We're in good stock.
We paid the 15% tariff and we're in good stock.
Okay, great.
So you've got a supply in the US.
That's awesome.
We'll help you get them into people's hands.
Is there anything else that we should know that is unique about your company or your product?
And probably the last thing, Mike, is the story of Delilah home.
This is kind of a made for Hallmark type of story, but my family and I, we were up in the North Carolina Mountains and we're getting ready to go for a hike.
And it was cold out.
I had Delilah's retractable leash.
Yes, our company's named after our dog.
I had her hard plastic retractable leash.
I didn't have a good grip on it.
She moved.
It fell on my hands, hit the ground.
spooked her and she started running.
She started running, she took off and the leash was kind of bouncing but behind her and she was running faster and faster and of course here I'm running after her and I'm thinking, okay, I have to get back into shape because I can't catch up with her.
Well, long story short, she was lost in the North Carolina Mounds for 62 days.
Oh my.
And the cool part about this story, and this is more about humanity, where we were walking on the trails and all of a sudden, hey, you've seen her dog?
People stopped what they were doing, followed us and were searching.
We had posted on the on Facebook that night.
The very next day, we had over 2400 shares.
in the Boone and Blown Rock, North Carolina Mountains.
And we had thousands of people that were out looking for Delilah.
Oh, wow.
Thousands, I mean, thousands of people from the police chief to the mayor.
I mean, it was this phenomenal where it didn't matter who you were, where you came from, people stopped to help out a stranger and help find a dog.
So through this process, we created a find Delilah website and it was almost like a full time job trying to manage everyone's updates.
But people were saying, what's going on?
How can I help?
We had a doctor that printed 500 flyers and went out door to door to door to say, hey, have you seen this dog?
And we put flyers up and everything.
So fast forward, you know, two weeks before she was captured, there's a happy end to this.
One of the dozens of daily volunteers saw dog tracks in the snow, followed them and saw Delilah.
The community rallied around us as a family, created a GoFundMe page, raised six thousand dollars, hired a trapper, and we were able to get video and still images of Delilah going in and out of this abandoned home.
It's like hunting Sasquatch.
It's like, have you seen Bigfoot?
Have you seen my dog Delilah?
But then they were going every day and they were feeding the dog Bojangles.
They were making steak and eggs, trying to feed Delilah.
She was going home, she was eating the food, but then she was leaving.
So a guy in Nashville, Korea, this guillotine type trapdoor.
And long story short, we think that she got clipped by a car because she had a broken leg.
And she went in, ate the food, was ready to leave, went back, she went back in for more and ended tripping the trapdoor.
And we have all this on video.
Oh, wow.
Yes.
It's really cool.
So, but the sub stories to this is what really makes the story even just more emotionally better.
Because some people found God in this process.
A couple of ladies were going through divorce and wanted to have something to have hope in.
And friends were reunited all over this strange family's dog.
And so it just got this really cool feeling of okay, we all brought, we were able to bring, come together, bring Delilah home and she's home safely.
I'm, I'm proud to say that she's grounded for life.
So we, um, um, part of this process is, you know, our philosophy is, if you can't pay it back, how do we pay back all these people that have stopped what they're doing to help out?
And again, thousands of people.
We decide that we're going to pay it forward.
And that's where 10% of our profit kind of comes back in.
So it's a feel good story of like, you know what?
Hey, we're friends with our neighbors.
We're going to help out no matter what.
Um, but that's what being in a community and being in a strong village is really all about.
That's, that's a very heartwarming story that shows also, I think the culture of North Carolina and of many states in the U.S. where people are very willing to help each other.
But I'm so glad that you form those bonds with your community and that you're able to help repay that through the generosity of your company.
And again, we share exactly that kind of alignment with you.
And I feel like when we are blessed with financial abundance, We have a duty.
We have a duty to help those who are less fortunate or who are struck by floods or disasters or fires or what have you.
We have a duty to help other human beings.
And I think also importantly, one of the the ways that we can help humanity is to stop supporting toxic poisons in the supply chains.
So that brings us back to why organic matters.
So, Michael, that's an amazing story.
Is there anything else you want to add before we wrap this up?
No, I just appreciate the time that you're giving me.
And it's, you know, I guess, if, you know, kind of closing remarks is that, you know, you kind of get what you pay for.
You know, and there's a lot of options out there, but, you know, if you invest and you buy quality, it's, it's going to last.
And that's why the products that we DeLaHome builds are of the highest, highest level, highest quality, built in the best factories with the best materials that are not going to break your bank when you go to purchase them.
But they're going to, if you treat them right and you wash them correctly, don't use the toxic detergent, they're going to last years and you're going to go back and say, Okay, yeah, these are the type of linen that I grew up with.
Well, and I should mention, I mean, I'll just bring it up here.
At our store, we have our own detergent formulation that we formulated.
to be environmentally conscious.
And if you look at the ingredients, they're all highly rated ingredients here by the environmental working group.
So, I mean, seriously, go look all these up at EWG and you notice we don't have any toxic dyes.
We don't have any toxic fragrance.
There's actually no fragrance.
There's no synthetic nonsense.
A lot of it's actually chemically related to baking soda here.
you know so uh you could just wash it in baking soda and water and that would be great actually so uh michael thank you for the backstory thank you for making this available thank you for working with us so that we can help spread the goodness about your products to our customers as well.
It's great to meet you.
Nice to meet you too, Michael, and thank you for the opportunity.
All right.
And say hi to Delilah here.
And what a, what a amazing story.
62 days in the wilderness, huh?
62 days.
And, you know, the beauty of we have, we have everything on video, so I can, I can share that with your, with your audience.
But when Delilah came home, my wife was interviewed by three TV stations.
And in fact, I was in at Expo West in, in, in LA, and my friends from TalkMack, from West Texas said, hey, I saw your story on your dog in Lubbock.
That's hilarious.
Wow.
Well, I'm glad that that had a very happy ending there.
And again, thanks for making yourself available today and keep in touch.
We'd love to know what else you have that you're working on that we can share with our audience.
Awesome.
Well, thank you, Michael.
And thank you for all the Health Ranger customers.
We appreciate you and we thank you for your support.

All right, welcome back.
I know you enjoyed that video about the towels.
I'm very careful about who we partner with, and in the past I have made a few mistakes.
But this company, Delilah Home, their product checks out, their certifications check out.
It's not a food product, so of course we don't test it for glyphosate, but it's certified organic, which means they're not even allowed to use synthetic herbicides or pesticides on it.
But it's not like you're eating your towels, I hope.
That would be bad.
There might be some Americans that do get that hungry, like, you know, food's too expensive.
They printed so much currency that we can't even afford, you know, Kraft macaroni and cheese.
That would be sad.
What do we have left to eat?
Shoe leather and towels.
And if we run out of that, we can chew on tree bark in the backyard.
It turns out tree bark contains a lot of natural medicine, certain tree barks, and then they chew on the tree bark and like, you're cured.
What's going on?
Okay, I'm getting carried away.
Hopefully famine doesn't get that bad.
All right.
Now, as promised, I did interview Ron Paul.
And of course, he's a legend.
It probably needs no introduction to this audience.
And before I get to the interview, I just want to say how much Ron Paul has influenced me.
me It spanning many decades, I became more and more educated about honest money, about precious metals, gold and silver, etc.
I did buy my first gold and silver coins in the, I think it was the early 1990s.
But I got to admit, the guy who sold them to me, I thought he was a little bonkers.
And it turns out he wasn't bonkers.
He was absolutely right.
He was just a little bit early about where things were headed, which is ultimately the, you know, the debt collapse of the empire.
That's still coming.
It's been amazing they could delay it this long.
But anyway, so I've learned about honest money and I've, you know, explored different formats of it, like goldbacks, which everybody loves.
goldbacks.
They're great gifts.
I've stacked gold and silver.
we partnered with a gold and silver company which is battalion metals you can reach them if you want at metalswithmike.com and we have advocated for saving your assets in this form that is just immune to the collapse of currencies it's been proven that way again and again you know we talked about grapes being mentioned in the Bible.
Well, gold is mentioned in the Bible like 400 plus times, it turns out.
So, you know, grapes and gold, God grapes and gold, GGG, it's all mentioned in the Bible numerous times as forms of actual wealth.
Grapes because of the natural medicine, gold because it's a store of value.
It's actual money.
Unlike dollars, which are not money, their currency, they don't count as money because they're not a store of value.
They don't hold value.
Dollars are collapsing rapidly.
Gold is skyrocketing.
And you probably just...
And Powell is like, well, if I don't lower interest rates, Trump's probably going to have me destroyed.
Which is true look what Trump did to that other Federal Reserve board member like you're out of here get out of town and she's all like no you're doing that because I'm black and he's like no I'm doing it because you're stupid Trump will destroy you if you don't lower interest rates Well, if the Fed starts lowering interest rates, what's that going to do for gold and silver?
It's going to skyrocket and probably stocks will go up too I'm just guessing.
Don't take this as financial advice because I don't even own any stocks.
I don't really, I don't follow the stock market.
I follow gold and silver because that's real money.
Although I did notice that Nvidia took a little crash, like a 5% plunge for some reason, even though they had really great earnings.
If I were to buy into any company, it would probably be Nvidia because I buy so much of their stuff.
It's like, man, I mean, but whatever, again, this is not financial advice.
I'm not buying Nvidia, but I do own gold and silver.
And I think gold and silver are going to skyrocket when interest rates start dropping.
Because people are going to realize, oh my goodness, you know, this is going to cause inflation is cheaper money you know more leveraged lending etc this is going to cause a flood of you know stimulus money effectively through the banking system into the economy prices are going to skyrocket gold and silver are going to be the store of value you know and i learned most of this from either ron paul directly or people influenced by ron paul so ron paul has been even though i i don't probably
give him enough credit But he's been a very strong influence in my thinking about Austrian economics and honest money and also courage, the courage to stick.
to your principles, even when everybody around you is losing their minds.
The courage to say no.
No, I won't vote for your tax increase.
No, I won't vote for your Patriot Act.
No, I don't support police in the cities and the streets of America.
I don't want to live in a police state.
The courage to say no.
And Ron Paul was known as Dr. No.
That was his nickname.
some of the years when he served in Congress.
He served on and off for a long time as a Texas Congress, well, United States Congressman representing Texas, okay?
So Ron Paul's a legend, and he just turned 90 so I also want you to keep that in mind when when you watch the interview Ron Paul is 90 years old he's still very sharp he's you know he's still Ron Paul but he's not the spring chicken Ron Paul like any of us would probably be at age 90 you know we're not the same as we were when we're 35
So just keep that in mind.
You know, he might be a little slower to explain things, but he's still as sharp as ever, and he's still as right as ever.
So just keep that in mind.
I mean, if I'm even alive at 90, I'd be like, Wow, that's an accomplishment, you know?
So much less actually speaking and making sense.
I mean, there's all kinds of people in the world today that don't even make sense at 30 or 40 or 50.
They never make sense.
Ron Paul's still rocking it at 90.
I mean, think about it.
Doesn't that mean he was born in 1935?
I mean, he was great.
I mean, before it came to America, I should say, it had started elsewhere, but...
I mean, my God, the life experience of Ron Paul just has to be amazing.
I'm in awe at his journey, a life to celebrate, and the level of influence that he's had on the world is immeasurable.
So anyway, I was really honored to be able to interview Ron Paul, and I was honored to be invited to his birthday party.
And I'm also...
He believes that we should bring our troops home.
We should end all the funding of foreign wars and foreign nations and foreign aid, and I agree with that, we should bring our troops home, and we should focus on the issues here domestically, because we got a few of those, it seems like.
Got a few.
Maybe we could build some infrastructure instead of having a sketchy power grid.
So, with that said, enjoy this interview with Ron Paul.
Welcome to today's interview on Bryoteon.com.
I'm Mike Adams, the founder of Bryoteon.
And today we're joined by an extraordinary guest who needs no introduction.
Welcome to the show, Dr. Ron Paul.
It's an honor to have you on today, sir.
Hi.
Great being with you.
It's really great being with you.
And I mean, this is the first time that we've ever spoken, but I was at your birthday event, and you may not know this, but I contributed to your 1997 congressional campaign.
Oh.
Even though I wasn't a Texan at the time.
You had national appeal, you know, even in the 90s.
I hope the message is...
Absolutely is.
One of the things I want to ask you about and mention is I think America is increasingly realizing that Ron Paul was right and that if we had heeded your warnings earlier, we might not be in this fiscal mess that we're in.
What do you make of the fact that we're now at over 120% debt to GDP ratio with endless fiat currency printing?
Well, it's very, very dangerous.
And we've already seen what can happen and the danger is getting worse every day.
To me, there's a lot of problems with inflation and destruction of a currency.
especially at the end, what happens is there's a redistribution of wealth.
So as a government destroys the money and the value of the dollar, the rich are able to get hold of those dollars first and they become wealthier and they're also able to participate in the way this money is spent.
But what happens then is the people that are poorer or middle class are hurt.
But people are waking up to that and realizing this is so unfair, but they don't understand the economics of it all.
So therefore, they frequently just go back to the source of the problem because I had people come to me.
me and say, these prices are too high, price too high.
I said, what do you think we should do?
Send us more money.
Of course.
So I've been very interested in trying to educate and to promote our causes.
Well, I think you're doing an outstanding job, obviously.
I mean, you're an American hero in my mind.
I want to mention you got a show called The Ron Paul Liberty Report.
It's on Rumble Monday through Friday.
Here's the channel, The Ron Paul Liberty Report, very easy to find on Rumble.
And then also your main website, Ron Paul Institute.
ronpaulinstitute.org, which we are also going to begin indexing on our censored.news website to bring you those headlines every day as well.
Now, Dr. Paul, the Trump administration with Lutnik is doing something very unusual.
They have negotiated to receive a 15% royalty on Nvidia microchip sales to China.
So in other words, when Nvidia sells chips to China, the White House gets 15%.
And Lutnik is going to universities and saying, you should give us royalties on the patents because they're paid by, you know, the research is paid by taxpayers.
And then finally, Lutnik is saying the defense industry.
If we're talking about the defense industry, we should go to defense companies like Lockheed Martin and we should buy a stake in those companies.
And the government just bought a stake in Intel, ten percent stake.
What red flags does this raise in your mind?
This is bad, bad news, and it's a bad trend.
And we've been involved in manipulating our relationship with corporations.
And I think one of the things that we should fear the most is corporatism, where there is this mixture of free markets and special interests are protected more than the others.
And this is also the reason why the special interest groups and money plays a big role in it.
And of course the big one, the military industrial complex, and also the pharmaceuticals and Yukonoko on and on.
So that is, for me, very dangerous.
This buying into the stock, so to speak, is, and they admit, we've had a lot of mixing up of corporations and favoritism and bail out.
But this one is a little more blunt, that they are actually owning these stocks.
And they're advertising it.
Well, we could do this.
We could raise so much money.
you know, just buying and selling, you know, having fees and we'll have enough money that we won't have to raise taxes at all.
You know, I think that's far-fetched.
I think that's so much deception.
And so every time you have a solution like that, the one thing they don't talk about is kind of expanding in a serious manner.
Yeah, there's a word for when government owns the means of production.
There's a word for that.
And I think our audience, I mean, there's so many warning signs in this.
What happens when the government owns a majority of Intel and then dictates to Intel who they're allowed to sell microchips to, which they're actually already doing, or even what should be their chip design preferences.
Maybe the government says, We want you to build AI robot chips for war soldiers or something.
You see what I mean?
Yeah, and I think that's going on.
It isn't quite what we see in total fascism or nazism or communism, where it's so overwhelming, and then they use military force to keep it in order.
But I think that's being exp up to the government to bring about peaceful means.
So we'll send in the army.
So we start bending the rules.
And so Mises was emphatic about what we had and that's been thirty, forty years ago.
He said that we don't have socialism, we have interventionism and called corporatism.
But he also predicted that usually, you know, from history and understanding, will lead to fascism.
Not maybe, you know, the Soviet type of communism, but a type of fascism.
because it's easier to sell to the American people.
Oh, we're just a business people, you know, helping out here and doing this.
And then all the motivations are really mixed up in there.
But it's still power.
Just think of the military industrial complex.
They're doing pretty well and we're still short, short of money.
If right now we're begging and pleading that all the European nations get together because they want us to fight and do things in Ukraine, but we're hardcore now.
We say, well, we're not going to do all that.
You guys raise the money and we'll help try to push it.
But what we'll do is insist you spend all that money in the United States.
That's right.
It's terrible.
Well, one of the things I've always admired about you, Dr. Paul, is your pro-peace stance and your courage to stand for your principles, even under great public pressure.
And in fact, right now, I love the fact that Tulsi Gabbard spoke at your event also, because I believe that she also wants to help extricate us out of these wars.
And Trump promised to end the Ukraine-Russia war in 24 hours.
It's now been, you know, how many months has it been?
and it's all still going?
And we've got a devastating war in the Middle East.
And my question to you, sir, is that what do you make of there is an effort in America right now among some MAGA people to try to say that the peace conservatives or the peace libertarians are trying to destroy MAGA, that MAGA stands for war and peace is a destructive principle.
What do you make of that?
Well, it's very frustrating because if you talk to a lot of people, people want peace and prosperity and it's available to us.
But the people who really, you know, are capable of mobilizing, you know, sentiments and attitudes are in the driver's seat for more big, big government.
And that's where the problem is.
But the people, the people basically, when they, when we talk about what we believe in, it's endorsed.
But, you know, it was, and I think that helped Trump, you know, in winning the election because he was talking some of our language.
But I think that I think they are realizing that it's a lot of talk.
People are waking up to this.
It's kind of like how people finally woke up to COVID.
And that was great.
But when it comes to really cutting, I thought one of the best things they did at the beginning of this administration was to bring up the subject of USAID.
Yes.
That was great.
That's great news.
I agree.
And yet, at the same time, when the process began, nobody is even talking about it.
Nobody wants to cut anything.
So it's dependence and the pain.
It's like someone has cancer.
And if they don't have a major operation, they're going to die.
But I said, I don't want to go through the operation.
And our country is not ready to go through the operation.
So I don't think we're going to get enough people in Congress to all of a sudden move in that direction.
I think there will be a major event where we'll be forced to make a decision.
Well, in fact, thank you for describing that.
And I have a follow-up question, which is about AI automation of government agencies.
So one of the things that we're seeing now in certain agencies like HHS, but also the IARS is letting go of the human workers, replacing them with AI and calling that cutting government.
But it's really not cutting, it's automating the same functions.
In fact, making the tyranny more efficient, you might argue.
What's your take on that?
Well, I think your point is right, except some of that, to some degree, has happened all along.
It's back in the industrial revolution.
You had machinery going in.
Some people are laid off.
But I think that the effort to do this is, you know, a lot of work.
It's a mixed blessing.
What I fear is there will be some successes and solidify the people who disagree with us.
Take, for instance, Law and Order.
The streets are burning because of the prediction of what collectivism brings and corporatism brings and inflation brings.
So the cities are a mess.
And then you have this crazy stuff from the far left and the whole thing is falling apart.
And I think that's where the real problem is, is the community.
The chaos is there and of course the Marxists like this and if there's a success, let's say Trump is unusually and magnificently successful and there's the hint that that's what's happening, Washington is going to be a perfect city.
Well, let's say they do real well.
That won't help people dissect this out.
They'll say, well, don't worry about it.
It's a federal city and all this.
What they're going to do is use that because they're already talking about putting troops in Chicago and in Baltimore.
And if they go everywhere where they've caused poverty.
with stupid ideas and an irrational monetary policy.
There's a lot of work to be done.
And that's why it's so important.
I think the mischief here, the big issue is the fact that we have a monetary system that is used to do exactly that.
And people become dependent on it.
It's real hard to break the habit.
You have been proven correct again and again throughout recent history about that because the source of so much corruption and fraud and chaos and also just the loss of purchasing power, the impoverishment of the American people, it all traces back to fiat currency printing.
And I started buying gold in the early 1990s largely because of you, Dr. Paul, and I've been stacking precious metals ever since and very happy that I've done so.
I've got a question for you about Trump's executive order saying that he wants to throw people in prison for a year for burning the American flag.
Now, You and I both love America, and I fly the Texas flag here in the studio.
I would never burn a flag, but I really honor the First Amendment.
What's your take on this?
Well, the first thing is, is the burning.
a flag is an expression.
People don't do that other than calling attention, annoying people, antagonizing people, and they should be totally ignored unless they've damaged property or caused a riot or something.
But then it shouldn't be a federal law that's not written in the Constitution that we have police men running all over the place finding out, you know, what they're demonstrating on or whether they're burning a flag.
So that's wrong.
If burning of the flag is related to a riot and organized in such a way, that's a local matter..
That's like if someone breaks into a store and steals, that should be the police will come in.
And look at what's happened here in this last decade.
They run into stores and the police help them.
Hopefully that will change.
But back to my concern is if they do a really great job in Washington and Washington looks a lot better for various reasons, that will be the excuse.
We need them in every city.
Every city has crimes.
And people will say, you know, that's true.
We would like to have peace again.
One thing is though.
I think the predictions right now of how much can and has been done in Washington already probably won't come to fruition because of the human nature of things.
Well, and also, you know, Beijing is a clean looking city, but perhaps not for reasons that we would support if we are pro-liberty.
You know, it's a very strict.
police infrastructure there and many of China's cities are the same way.
They look really clean on the surface, but then there's this underbelly of what you don't see or the techniques that are used to achieve a so-called clean city.
And I don't want US troops running every US city because my concern, Dr. Paul, is even if Donald Trump acts in good faith, he's not going to be there forever.
Whoever comes next can take that same infrastructure and turn it against the American people, which always seems to happen.
What do you think?
Well, I think what they're doing is totally ignoring the Constitution because they're overstepping, and they have in a long time overstepped the bound of the intrusion of the federal government in doing this.
And besides, it's I see it as attack on the First Amendment specifically.
This whole idea that we get colleges, schools, everyone, medical systems, all dependent on the government.
And then if they don't do our bidding or like the universities, if they have a speaker they don't like, if the government doesn't like that, they say, okay, we're going to take away your subsidy.
Well, you know, in a way, it should never have happened.
They should never have had the subsidy.
They have more and more of this that they use it as a weapon.
And the administration uses the tariffs.
Okay, you do this and we're going to put a tariff on you.
We're going to make China pay.
But then if people think about it, Chinese customers don't pay it.
The American government pays it, which goes to the American people eventually suffer the most for putting tariffs on.
I think it's so crazy that they think that we'll put a tariff on Trump to balance our budget.
Yeah, that is absurd given the relatively small revenues from tariffs.
But that's the last question I wanted to ask you today anyway was about these tariffs.
And of course, the fifty percent tariff on India just kicked in.
And India is supposed to be an US ally.
Meanwhile, China has a much lower tariff now than the Indian.
They are now more strictly tariffed than India, and Trump keeps delaying the additional tariffs on China.
But what does it say to you when one man in America, one person, the president, decides that he alone gets to determine tariffs and set them and use them basically as sanction weapons, even against our allies around the world, potentially destroying many decades of positive relationships with countries like India?
What do you think of that?
I don't think the founders intended the president to have so much power.
And the other big one, I'm sure you could agree with me, how many wars have we fought since World War II started by our foreign policy directed by our presidents.
You know, and that's that's a big one.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
And that continues.
No, he has way too much power and wielding this power.
Now the founders did, you know, they did tolerate some, some tariffs, but I don't think they ever meant it to be a weapon for the president to use it and then to expand it to sanctions and tariffs and manipulations and all kinds of punishment.
No, it's way too much power.
And when on the surface there's always somebody who's going to cheer it because somebody thinks they're going to benefit from it.
It's the same way with inflation.
People tolerated the inflation even though they knew, well, this is a little bit of a this is a little bit of a mischief thing, just printing up money.
But on the short run, it seems to be okay.
On the long run, it's like a depiction, you know, getting a person off drugs is a tough job.
And they always demand to come back for more, more, more.
And what about Zelensky?
He'd be a good example of that.
All he wants is a billion, what is a billion dollars a month, you know, to keep the war going?
How ridiculous.
And who's morally responsible?ble for that war?
Well, the people who run NATO and who puts the most money in NATO, you know, the United States.
People don't see that where no matter which part of the world we're in, if there's fighting going on and people are getting killed, if we're sending weapons there for profit, they should, you know, assume responsibility for the so many millions of lives that are lost because of these wars.
Absolutely.
Well, in wrapping up this interview, and I very much appreciate your time today, doctor Paul, is there anything else you'd like to mention to our audience?
in independent media and we have a very critical audience and they're not tribalists.
They're not automatically following one party or another.
They're critical thinkers.
I think most of them are fans of you.
So what would you like to say to them?
Well, I think we got here because of bad ideas and intolerance and the government management of our universities and they inundated us with people who have a different understanding than what the founders had and so many people now are reviewing and finding that there is a different strategy.
I think there's a big contest going on between the people that are in opposition to us.
They're the nihilists.
They say, Why you guys waste so much time on honest money?
We don't even believe there is such a thing as honesty.
So there's the nihilists there.
Then there's the idealists that think that there is something called personal liberty and natural laws, and it should be universal.
So I think it's moral, and I think it's universal, I think it's educational, and politicians reflect those attitudes.
They're very important, but that's not where the answers are.
The answers are eventually spreading a message.
That's why what you're doing on a radio or TV program is changing people's minds.
And just stop and think for a minute., isn't it better to live in a society that's free and realize that with freedom there's a lot more prosperity and peace?
And why do they give this up?
Because they've been hoodwigged into thinking that they're going to get peace and prosperity by listening to the dictators.
Well said, and thank you, Dr. Paul.
God bless you, and thank you for all the gifts that you've given this republic.
And it's been an honor to speak with you today.
Thank you.
Good to be with you.
Good to be with you too.
And that was Ron Paul, everybody.
And of course, check out his Ron Paul Liberty Report on Rumble and then his website.
also, or his institute is ronpaulinstitute.org.
And I encourage you to check out both of those.
And, you know, what else can you say?
Ron Paul speaks the truth today, just as he has consistently.
decade after decade as he served many terms in the United States Congress.
I'm sure to the frustration of the neocons and all of the traitors that perhaps surrounded him from time to time in Washington, D.C., but Ron Paul held true to his convictions.
And so he serves as a great example for all of us.
Remember that our real strength as a nation comes from our moral consistency and our understanding of what I would call, well, he mentioned natural law and the morality of honest money versus the immorality of fake fiat currency, which is unfortunately what our current system operates on.
But there's much more to be learned from Ron Paul, so tune into his show and his channel.
