BVN, Feb 20, 2026 – Glyphosate’s Dark Nazi Origins, Iran War Global Catastrophe and Interviews...

Mike Adams warns of a U.S.-led Iran war, driven by Zionist pressure like Netanyahu’s influence, threatening global supply chains—20M barrels/day oil and 30% LNG through the Strait of Hormuz could spike prices to $150/barrel, triggering 30–40% grocery inflation. Patrick Henningsen reports Iran’s readiness with Mach 20 hypersonic missiles, while Adams ties glyphosate (a "Nazi-derived" herbicide) to Monsanto’s profits and health crises like cancer, ignored by the EPA despite IARC’s 2015 carcinogen classification. Trump’s defense of glyphosate as a "national security resource" fuels conspiracy claims, urging listeners to detox via self-grown food and stockpile alternatives like HealthRanger’s nascent iodine amid potential famine and economic collapse.

Defending Glyphosate: Poison or Protection? 00:06:07
Hey, welcome to Friday, February 20th, 2026.
This is Bright Videos News.
I'm Mike Adams.
Thank you for joining me today.
Got a lot to cover.
Let's see.
Okay, I did an impromptu interview with Charlie Robinson, who is the emcee for the Anarchipoco event that's taking place right now.
And I'm going to play that interview today, which means that my part two interview with Maria Z will be postponed until I think Monday.
But that's coming up.
Talking to Charlie Robinson, he also brought in Patrick Henningsen in person there.
So we've got Patrick Henningsen coming up, and he just returned from Tehran, the capital of Iran, obviously.
And it looks like war is imminent against Iran.
It looks like the United States is going to just start a war of aggression and start bombing a foreign nation for no particular reason other than the fact that that's what Israel wants Trump to do.
Patrick Henningsen gives us an update from being on the ground there in Tehran.
In addition, I was able to talk with Marjorie Wildcraft today.
She was also at the event.
And so we've got that coming up.
And that's all about food security.
And, you know, Trump's whole glyphosate executive order, which everybody sees as insane.
Well, except for a few people.
There are a few people out there defending glyphosate.
It's the same people defending the pedophiles, by the way.
So that tells you something.
But for the most part, people are really fed up with Trump pushing glyphosate.
And as I tweeted out, I said, look, if the Trump administration really wanted to achieve food security, Trump would tell Americans to grow food, not poison it with weed killer chemicals.
And I said, look, Trump's view on food security is that the government is responsible for achieving food security, and mostly by acquiring sufficient poisons to power the chemical industrial agricultural complex.
But real food security starts at home with us and with your local farmers market and with community supported agriculture, seed saving, seed sharing, producing food in a decentralized manner.
If you want food security, grow more food, period.
And don't poison it with glyphosate.
So food security should happen at the decentralized local level, not the federal level.
Federal government can't give you food security.
All they can do is stockpile toxic, deadly poisons.
And today, I have a really intriguing special report and analysis on the history of glyphosate and how it's derived from nerve agents such as VX nerve gas and sarin gas and other organophosphate chemicals that were derived that were created in order to kill people.
They were created by Nazi scientists, by the way.
I'm going to go through the whole history of that for you here today.
You can fact check all of it.
It's all true.
It's all shocking.
It all traces back to IG Farben, crimes against humanity.
And now that has become glyphosate, which is basically a nerve agent for plants.
And it's chemically very similar to a VX nerve agent or sarin gas or it could be in different forms.
And I'm also going to share with you how malathion, which is sprayed on cities to try to keep mosquitoes down, malathion is also a nerve toxin.
It's a nerve agent in the same class of compounds, which are organophosphate chemicals that are known as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
These cause brain damage and they are sprayed on American populations because, of course, we are living in a giant government-run kill zone.
And we'll get to that with more about the special report here coming up today.
I want to mention: if you're looking to research anything about glyphosate, you should use our AI deep research engine.
It's called brightanswers.ai.
It's free to use.
And I ran an index check today just to see how many of our sources we have in our curated data index that talk about glyphosate.
And here's the answer.
It's rather remarkable.
We have indexed 1,926 books that mention glyphosate.
We have 3,721 articles that cover glyphosate.
We have 1,057 podcasts that mention glyphosate.
I wonder how many of those are mine.
We have 254 interviews that talk about glyphosate and 12 audio books that mention glyphosate.
That's almost 7,000 sources.
And when you type a prompt into our AI engine at brightanswers.ai, every one of those sources is searched to create your answer.
So we have the world's best research engine on glyphosate, period.
And actually, also the best research engine on vaccines or DMSO or ivermectin.
I mean, colloidal silver, chlorine dioxide, anything that the mainstream doesn't want you to know about, we have the best data on it, period.
Nobody else even comes close.
And you can access it all at brightanswers.ai.
Now, we have some interesting improvements coming to brightanswers.ai.
One thing is we're going to be lighting up much longer, more detailed answers.
And we're going to have a deep research mode on top of that that's available to users with tokens.
And then we're also going to be, well, we're adding a lot more resources now.
In fact, I think in the last two days I've added 10,000 more books to our research index.
Exploring New Research Engines 00:04:25
I'll have to get a final count as soon as it's done.
And we are exploring some of the new engines that have been released, the open source engines, to see how that can augment the construction of our answers at brightanswers.ai.
So all of that is coming up.
Just be sure to use our engines to do your research because, you know, it's the best and it's free.
And you'll find things that will blow your mind.
Okay, now before we get into all that, I wanted to show you a really interesting, kind of scary video, actually, from China about China automating robots to carry rifles and to clear buildings with live rifle fire.
Yeah, that.
Check out this video.
在城市站、叢林站等不达地形中的自主協同目标分配与火力打击能力。 标志着我国在无人化、智能化作战体系建设领域又迈出了坚实力。 央视军事频道特约观察员报道。
没有人化作战体系建设计划。 或许多人说他们的物件不是用于这种影片。 或许多人估计划作战体系。 Thank you.
I mean, AI is getting so good, probably it is AI video.
But I mean, I was looking at the smallest details.
Even at second 35, I saw like polymer casings, what we would call brass, being ejected out of the rifle, being ejected forward.
So I was like, my goodness.
I mean, the level of detail in this is really striking.
But here's the thing: whether this video is real or AI video, Unitree has robots that can move like that.
I mean, we've already seen many demonstrations of that.
And China is leading the world in advanced robotics.
So it's very clear that this is where this is going.
Okay.
Again, whether or not this video is real, maybe it's just AI.
But within.
I mean, did you see the Chinese New Year crazy dancing celebrations with all the dancing robots?
I played that a couple of days ago.
If they can do that, they can do this.
Okay?
So there's no physical limitation of why they can't pick up rifles and engage targets.
This is what's coming.
Wow, what an exciting time to be alive.
Well, we're still alive, you know, we're still alive.
My goodness.
By the way, in less than a week, the C-Dance AI video generation engine created by the Byte Dance Company out of China that gets opened up to U.S. customers.
That would include me.
I'll be using it like crazy.
I can't wait to use it.
However, because C-Dance has been, well, Byte Dance has been threatened by what Disney and Paramount and a bunch of companies, Marvel, whatever, they have said that they will no longer allow you to upload copyrighted images of Brad Pitt or whatever or Iron Man.
That's okay.
I wasn't planning on doing that anyway, by the way.
I don't need Brad Pitt in every scene.
Glyphosate's Hidden Threat 00:10:04
We've got way more important stuff to do.
So, but there are going to be some restrictions on what you can generate with it in terms of copyright violations.
Nevertheless, the engine is expected to be opened up on February 24th, give or take.
We'll see how that goes.
We'll see if their engines get totally overloaded from everybody trying to generate videos all over the world all at the same time.
So yeah, that should be interesting.
Okay, let's see.
I've got coming up for you here today a couple of things.
Number one, I've got, well, I've got the true history of glyphosate, like I said earlier, how it's derived from deadly organophosphate nerve agents like sarin and VX.
You've heard of VX nerve gas.
Did you know that a couple of microliters of VX on your skin will kill you within minutes?
Did you know that?
Yeah, it's crazy toxic.
Glyphosate is related to those.
It has a very similar structure.
And glyphosate is basically a nerve agent for plants that also has catastrophic effects on human health due to long-term exposure and bioaccumulation.
So we'll talk about that.
Then I have another very important report, a detailed report about how attacking Iran will set off a global catastrophe for humanity.
And it will end the Trump presidency.
And it will almost certainly end U.S. dollar dominance.
And it will be absolutely catastrophic for the U.S. economy, for U.S. jobs, for imports, for manufacturing, for the food supply, for energy, transportation.
Did I already mention that?
I mean, almost everything you can think of is going to be negatively impacted by Trump attacking Iran.
And these negative impacts will be global.
India will get hit hard.
China will get hit hard.
China's manufacturing will tumble because of this.
Germany will be devastated.
It will de-industrialize at an even greater rate of acceleration.
Same thing with South Korea, Japan, Taiwan will be hurt.
France, the UK, many countries, many people, billions of people around the world will be negatively impacted by this.
And Trump is doing it to appease his Zionist masters, you know, Netanyahu and the rest of that crowd.
So that's pretty disgusting.
There's no reason why we need a war with Iran.
Trump should, in my opinion, focus on the things that we need to do right here at home.
We have plenty of problems here.
Now, Representative Thomas Massey, just changing the subject here, he is introducing a potential new law called the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act, which would work to undo Trump's executive order that promotes glyphosate and that insulates manufacturers from liability.
Note that Thomas Massey seems to be just about the only member of Congress that is doing anything useful.
Well, okay, not the only one, but one of a small number that are doing something useful.
And that the Trump administration is desperately trying to get rid of Thomas Massey because he won't take money from APAC and he won't bow down to the Zionist controllers, right?
But it's Massey that's doing something useful here or attempting to, but believe me, the GO people rally against this because they want you to eat more toxic, deadly glyphosate poison.
Now, by the way, all the glyphosate pushers out there who are, again, mostly the pedophile protectors, they are lying like crazy.
Look, the whole history of Monsanto is filled with lies and black ops, negative PR departments, and all kinds of nefarious things, like paying off scientists, put their names on ghost-written science papers that were pro-glyphosate, etc.
Long, long, nefarious history of bad actors.
Glyphosate is not necessary to feed the country.
There's still some people who think it is.
They've been believing these lies.
You might wonder, why is there so much glyphosate on wheat products if there's no such thing as Roundup Ready wheat?
In other words, with like Roundup Ready Soybeans or something, you spray the soybeans with glyphosate to kill the weeds, but the soybeans themselves are resistant to the glyphosate, right?
So it's in that application, glyphosate becomes a weed killer.
So that's how you get GMO soy or genetically modified soy.
There's GMO corn, canola, cotton, alfalfa, etc.
It's all resistant to glyphosate, but wheat isn't.
So why is glyphosate sprayed on wheat?
It's sprayed on wheat at the end of the grow cycle, right as the wheat is about to be cut, and the glyphosate is used as a drying agent, a desiccant.
So it doesn't even kill weeds.
So it saturates the crop with deadly glyphosate that causes cancer in order to speed the drying time of the wheat.
Basically, it allows farmers to get paid a couple of days earlier because they can dry the crop faster and harvest it and take it in and get paid a couple of days earlier.
As a result, though, then the glyphosate saturates the crop and it continues on downstream and ends up in your bread or your crackers or your wheat cereal or your noodles made from wheat, whatever.
That's how glyphosate gets into all your wheat products.
You don't need glyphosate to grow the wheat.
It does nothing to grow the wheat.
It doesn't even kill weeds.
It's just a drying agent.
So the argument that, oh, we have to have glyphosate in order to produce food is utterly false.
And I can't believe how many people are ignorant about this topic.
You simply don't need it.
We were feeding our country long before glyphosate came along.
How do we do that?
We just let the wheat dry in the sun, you know, instead of spraying it with toxic, deadly chemicals.
So it's pretty simple.
Yeah, we can feed the whole country, especially today.
We have bigger tractors.
We have a more mechanized agricultural system.
You know, we have more automation, etc.
We can feed the whole country without Roundup.
And if you think that food security is achieved through nerve toxin chemicals, you know, something's wrong with your thinking on that because it's simply not true.
So you know what the glyphosate pushers remind me of, of course, is the vaccine pushers.
All the same people, all the same claims.
Oh, it's safe and effective.
Oh, it's all backed by science.
Yeah.
Well, why don't you go buy glyphosate?
You can buy it at a feed store.
You know, high-purity glyphosate.
You get like almost, what, like 50% purity?
Why don't you just buy it and drink it then?
I mean, if you think it's so safe and effective, you should just have it as a dinner drink.
You just drink glyphosate, take more jabs, you know, get some chemotherapy while you're at it.
Have, you know, just have every intervention that is considered safe and effective if you think it's so safe and effective.
Like, put your money where your mouth is, huh?
As they say.
All right.
So anyway, we've got a great show for you here.
Very powerful.
Let's do this.
Let's go to the true history of glyphosate first because that's a knowledge-packed episode right there.
After that, we'll jump into the analysis of what happens if Trump attacks Iran and Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz.
That will set off a global catastrophe.
And then following that, we'll have the interview today with Charlie Robinson and with Marjorie Wildcraft from An Arcapulco.
And I think that'll be it for today.
I want to remind you that this weekend, tomorrow, we've got the MIHA program, Make Yourself Healthy Again, with the four doctors there.
You can register for that at brightu.com.
It's free to watch with registration.
It begins again tomorrow.
One episode runs each day, and then it runs on a continuous loop, and then the next day the next episode runs, etc.
You can watch it all for free, or you can optionally purchase it and download the whole program and watch it at your leisure.
That is available at brightyou.com.
That's the word Bright, followed by the letter U, brightu.com.
In addition, when you want clean food that is tested for glyphosate, including nutritional supplements and personal care products, etc., shop with us at healthrangerstore.com because we do massive testing.
We have our own lab.
I've shown you the videos.
In fact, I'm going to show you a little piece here in the report today.
But we have our own mass spec instruments, including our glyphosate testing, a triple quad mass spec with a liquid chromatography interface.
And we test so many things.
We test for heavy metals, we test for glyphosate, we test atrazine, on and on, right?
So we do more testing than any other food and supplement retailer and manufacturer that I'm aware of.
And you can get clean glyphosate tested, heavy metals tested, food and supplements at our online store, healthrangerstore.com.
And I thank you for your support.
Phosphorus and Poison Development 00:15:54
All right, here comes the report, the true history of glyphosate.
Stay tuned for the rest of the show.
Enjoy the show.
And I'll be back with you probably this weekend.
Welcome to this special report.
I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
This is about glyphosate, the history of it, and how it is part of the military-industrial agricultural complex.
And this is why Trump's recent executive order specifically talked about the need to stockpile phosphorus for weapon systems such as white phosphorus and other weapons.
He specifically mentioned incendiary devices.
And you might wonder, well, what does a weed killer have to do with weapons?
And why did Trump's executive order from February 18th, why did it specifically place control of glyphosate and phosphorus under the Secretary of War?
Interesting questions, right?
Well, in order to answer that, you have to trace things back all the way to the 1930s.
So now we're going back to IG Farben, which was the big corporate conglomerate of Nazi Germany at the time.
And remember that IG Farben was hauled before the courts in Nuremberg, and it was ultimately split up by the courts into three companies because IG Farben had committed crimes against humanity, including the Zyklon B gassing and experiments on human prisoners.
And, you know, this is a corporation that took part in the Holocaust.
So we know that IG Farben is part of the history of using these phosphorus-based chemicals to commit mass genocide.
And in that case, against specific ethnic groups.
And then we know that IG Farben was, of course, split up into three corporations.
That was Bayer.
Yeah, the same Bayer that exists today, the pharmaceutical company.
It was BASIF B-A-S-F, which is, of course, the massive chemical conglomerate that it's a giant manufacturer of chemicals in Germany and now in China.
But what you may not know is that the third corporation that IG Farben was split into was known as Hocht.
Remember, these are German, these are German corporations.
That's why they're named as German names.
But Hochst merged with another company a few years later to form Aventis, which then merged with Sanofi to become what is now known as today Sanofi, a leading pharmaceutical company.
So in other words, the IG Farben corporate conglomerate that carried out crimes against humanity, two out of the three corporations that it was split into are now pharmaceutical companies.
Now, one of the leading scientists there in the 1930s is named Dr. Gerhard Schrader.
He was a chemist at IG Farben, and he was able to synthesize a class of compounds known as organophosphates.
So when you hear organophosphates, take note that the phosphate obviously is a molecular form of phosphorus.
So organophosphates are known as OPs, and there are a great many pesticides and herbicides that exist today in the marketplace that are organophosphate chemicals.
Now, I should clarify that it wasn't just Dr. Gerhard Schrader who discovered organophosphates, but he was the one who then discovered a nerve agent called Taboon, T-A-B-U-N, Taboon.
This was discovered in 1936, and it was a nerve agent chemical that very aggressively disrupts the nervous system, and it inhibits acetylcholinesterase.
Now, acetylcholinesterase is, of course, it's an enzyme that's involved in neurology.
It's critical for cognitive function in everybody.
And right now, when people eat a lot of pesticides, one of the reasons that they suffer from dementia and Alzheimer's is because of these acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, which are really nerve agents that have been turned into pesticides and herbicides.
And if you are exposed to a high enough concentration of taboon, then you will suffer paralysis and death.
Now, Gerhard Schrader, a chemist, he wanted to continue his work into death chemicals.
So he kept working on it, and then in 1938, he developed sarin gas.
This sarin compound was found to be 10 times more toxic than taboon.
And then, and you may recall, by the way, sarin gas was what was released in the Tokyo subway attacks.
When was that?
Back in the 1990s, I think it was.
Anyway, sarin gas was followed by another nerve agent called SOMON, S-O-M-A-N.
That was in 1944.
And then these were all classified as G-series agents.
They were all nerve agents, chemical weapons, which were further weaponized by Nazi Germany.
But they were not deployed by the Nazi regime in World War II.
However, note that through Operation Paperclip, the United States of America brought many of these German scientists to the United States and gave them new identities, new passports, new names even in many cases.
And then the Americans continued this research on nerve agents and they developed VX nerve gas in conjunction with the British, I should add.
So VX nerve agents, and it can be in a gaseous form or it can be in a liquid form.
It's kind of like an oil.
It acts like a lipid, so it can stick to a lot of surfaces.
Well, VX, this toxic agent, is lethal to humans at microgram doses.
So if you just put, I mean, less than a drop, I'm talking about, you know, a thousandth of a drop on your finger, roughly, give or take, that's enough to kill you.
Now, remember, this has everything to do with where glyphosate came from, because it was the development of these nerve agents and different ways to kill people that resulted in further research roughly in about 1970 that resulted in glyphosate being developed and then introduced into the marketplace around, I think, 1974.
Now, all these nerve agents that we've mentioned here, sarin or VX or SOMON or whatever, these all share, oh, and also glyphosate, these all share a phosphorus atom that's bonded to either oxygen or sulfur or both.
So this is the basic molecular formula.
So you have to have phosphorus in order to build these weapons to kill either plants or kill people or kill insects.
And so the military wants this.
This is why Trump is saying, well, we have to have phosphorus for glyphosate.
Actually, why Trump wants this, it's more than just glyphosate.
It's also in order to have a stockpile of phosphorus to build toxic, illegal chemical weapons, nerve gas agents and other organophosphates that can be deployed by the military because the U.S. respects no international treaties against chemical weapons or biological weapons,
obviously, or even nuclear weapons proliferation, which is evidenced by the fact that the U.S. gave Israel nuclear weapons that are still undeclared and still illegal under U.S. law.
So the phosphorus core, this is the common molecular factor that connects glyphosate with VX nerve agents and other organophosphate toxic chemicals.
And that's why I have grouped all of this under the military-industrial agricultural complex, because they all have the same basic core.
They're very similar chemicals.
In fact, you could say that glyphosate is a nerve agent for plants.
It's a nerve agent for plants.
And all of these work by disrupting the nervous system through acetylcholinesterase inhibition.
So ACHE is how that's designated in the scientific papers.
Glyphosate doesn't kill you immediately.
Glyphosate kills you slowly.
So the effects of glyphosate are really chronic and cumulative and even degenerative on human physiology.
Whereas just micrograms of VX would kill you completely.
So one of the reasons why glyphosate is used on the food supply is because they can saturate the food supply.
They can kill people slowly over time and nobody notices that they're eating poison every time they take a bite of non-organic wheat or bread or hamburger buns or wheat crackers or wheat cereal or whatever or corn, wheat, oats.
Glyphosate is sprayed on so many things and it's sprayed as a desiccant.
It's not even sprayed on wheat to kill weeds.
It's sprayed on wheat to dry it, to dry it quickly in the fields.
Now as further proof of this, there was also a pesticide based on the organophosphate structure called amaton, A-M-I-T-O-N.
And this amaton pesticide was later found to be so extremely toxic that it was withdrawn from the marketplace.
But this amaton gave rise to VX chemicals.
So again, the pesticide industry and the chemical weapons industry are essentially one and the same.
Just like the vaccine industry and the biological weapons industry are also one and the same.
They're just different points of view of the same research into how to kill lots of people.
That's the critical point you need to understand here.
This is about how to kill people.
So in the UK, there was a Porton Down laboratory, Porton Down.
Another one, another laboratory is called Edgewood Arsenal in the United States.
Both of these labs weaponize organophosphate compounds.
During the Cold War, roughly in the, I think it was the mid-1950s or late 1950s.
They found then that this was related to pesticides.
And the British government introduced or approved a pesticide called Tetram, T-E-T-R-A-M.
And this tetram pesticide was found to be a precursor to VX out in the field.
So they would spray tetram on the crops, and then some small amount of the tetram would become VX, a VX nerve agent.
And then farm workers all across the UK were found to be collapsing with nerve agent type of symptoms.
This is well documented.
And then continuing the organophosphate pesticides, then further research was conducted and it gave rise to compounds like chloropyrifose and malathion, which as you know has been sprayed on cities such as Miami in order to, as they say, to bring down the mosquito population.
Malathion is molecularly very similar to sarin gas.
So it's a nerve agent.
So when your government is spraying your city and your neighborhood with malathion, what they're actually doing is they are spraying you with chemical weapons that are organophosphate chemicals that cause acetylcholinesterase inhibition in your brain.
So you're actually being gassed like you were in a giant open-air gas chamber.
Now, the EPA banned chloropyrhose in 2021, but that was only after there was just an insurmountable amount of evidence that linked it to neurological development disorders in children.
And there were a lot of activists, a lot of attorneys, legal groups that were fighting the EPA to take that off the market.
Now back to glyphosate.
This was developed by Monsanto roughly around 1970.
And this molecule, which is a very small molecule, it permeates everything.
It moves through biological systems.
It mimics the phosphorus-based action of nerve agents, but it targets plant enzymes instead of the acetylcholinesterase enzymes in human and primate systems.
But a lot of studies link glyphosate to disruptions in the gut microbiome.
And they've also found that it chelates certain minerals, causing mineral deficiencies in many people.
And of course, glyphosate has been linked to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and a great many other health conditions that I'll cover in another separate report.
So to summarize this so far, glyphosate is a, you could say it's a nerve agent for plants.
It targets plant enzymes.
Whereas VX and sarin and malathion and so on, these are nerve agents for humans.
But glyphosate's toxic effects impact humans in ways other than targeting the human nervous system.
But they share the common chemical ancestry.
They were all developed to kill.
And that's what you need to understand, that the corporations and the scientists and the governments such as Nazi Germany that are behind all of this, these are organizations and people that focused on making money from killing things.
Killing people, killing insects, killing plants, killing human populations.
So those are the truthful origins of where all this came from.
All right, so if we compare the actions of nerve agents versus glyphosate, there are some important differences.
So if you look at sarin and VX, they bind to acetylcholinesterase and you can't unbind them.
So they bind to acetylcholinesterase and they cause what's called cholinergic crisis, which is it results in seizures because your nervous system stops functioning, you have respiratory failure, and then you suffocate to death.
Now, you can survive if you're injected with antidotes like atropine, which is known to emergency responders and maybe some chemists who work in these labs.
Ban Glyphosate? 00:15:11
You get a drop of sarin on you.
You better have some atropine available.
You better start injecting yourself within seconds.
All right, so Gulf War syndrome, which of course impacted tens of thousands of veterans in the 1991 Gulf War and beyond, found that these veterans were exposed to sarin-based pesticides or organophosphate pesticides.
They suffered chronic neurodegeneration.
They suffered autoimmune disorders and mitochondrial damage.
Some of that may have been linked to all the vaccines they were given and soldiers continue to be given vaccines.
But it's also clear that there were a lot of things sprayed around them, on or around their bases, and also used as weapons deployments against the enemies.
And some of that blew back onto U.S. soldiers, causing, it's believed, Gulf War syndrome, which is really sort of nerve agent light.
You know, it's like, well, you've been hit by nerve agents, but you didn't die.
But you're going to have brain damage.
You're going to have neurodegeneration, you know, etc.
So that's what happens when people are exposed to these pesticides and malathion over time.
It breaks down their brains.
And this is part of what's happening in our country today.
It's why there's a great dumbing down in America, or at least that's part of it, because people's brains are actually being damaged by the spraying of these things.
Now, let's compare that to a chronic toxicity of glyphosate.
So glyphosate, remember, doesn't target the acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
Rather, it causes things like, I already mentioned the gut microbiome disruption.
It kills beneficial bacteria.
It promotes leaky gut syndrome.
It worsens the risk of autoimmune disorders.
It causes endocrine disruption.
It mimics estrogen in some cases.
It's been linked to breast cancer, reproductive disease, and infertility, even at very low doses.
Glyphosate is capable of bioaccumulation, not just in living systems, but also in water supplies, specifically in groundwater.
But it also, it can move through the food supply.
And since almost all the crops that are fed to animals are sprayed with glyphosate, you know, I'm talking about cattle feed, for example, then the cows are going to be heavily laced with glyphosate as well.
So how is glyphosate even legal?
How did it get approved by the EPA for use in the food supply?
So it's very clear that the EPA, of course, has been captured by the military industrial agricultural complex.
I'm trying to remember what I named it.
The EPA, it's called regulatory capture.
The EPA has been captured by the pesticide herbicide companies like Bayer and many others.
The EPA, it's now known, deliberately ignored warnings about the carcinogenicity of glyphosate.
And they knew.
They knew it was a probable carcinogen.
And even the IARC classified it as that in 2015.
But the EPA ignored that because they wanted to protect agricultural profits.
In the military, there was also a lot of secrecy about the related compounds such as sarin gas.
And there were human experiments conducted in the UK that resulted in the deaths of RAF servicemen.
One of them named Ronald Madison in 1953.
I'm just checking my notes here on that.
But yeah, they were running human experiments, exposure, to see if it would kill people.
And turns out it did.
Also, in the summer, if you are using DEET, that's D-E-E-T, which is an anti-mosquito chemical.
And people in America, they spray DEET all over their skin.
You've probably done so.
It's an insect repellent.
Well, guess what?
It's an organophosphate derivative.
It also causes acetylcholinesterase inhibition, just like sarin gas, but at a lower dose.
And DEET is, you can go buy it at the grocery store or Walmart.
So we literally have nerve agents that are sold over the counter all across America that are labeled safe.
And people use them.
They spray themselves with those things.
Just as a side note, my online store, HealthRangerStore.com, has a natural essential oils-based insect repellent.
It's called Bugs Away.
And it's not quite as effective as DEET, but it also doesn't poison your brain.
In fact, it smells wonderful and you can use it on your skin and your clothes and whatever.
So, you know, as the summer gets closer or the spring rolls in here, if you want safe, natural insect repellents, you know, consider supporting us, healthrangerstore.com.
And you'll also be doing yourself a favor by not poisoning your brain.
That sounds good.
So back to the story here, the whole pattern in all of this is that glyphosate and DEET and malathion, which are in common, widespread use across our society today, these are all nerve agent weapons in terms of their origin.
They're marketed as safe for consumer products.
And Trump even said that glyphosate makes food crops healthy, which is unbelievable that someone could say that.
But all of these have their origins as warfare toxins or chemical weapons that were specifically designed initially by Nazi scientists to kill people.
That's where these come from.
The most toxic nerve agents can kill people within minutes.
Glyphosate kills people much more slowly over time through systemic damage.
But in both cases, these are all enabled by regulatory negligence or regulatory capture and corporate malfeasance, the corporations.
As long as they're making money off of this, Monsanto was making Agent Orange and the military was buying that to drop it all over Vietnam, etc.
As long as they're making money on these products, they don't care who it kills.
They don't care.
So what are the action items that you should take away from this?
Well, number one, if you eat GMOs in the food supply, and remember, they're hardly even labeled anymore.
All that's required legally in America is just to say, well, this is made with bioengineered ingredients, and it's very tiny print that is hidden on the food label.
If you're eating GMOs, you're eating glyphosate.
You're eating nerve agents, period.
Again, if you're eating GMOs, you're eating nerve agents.
If you're eating non-organic food, you can assume that it's laced with glyphosate.
Because, again, they use it in corn and wheat and many other products and oats and all kinds of grains.
So it's in there at some level.
We've seen bread products with 191 parts per billion.
And we've also seen products that have much lower levels, you know, like beer might have five parts per billion.
And personally, I'm not so concerned about low single digits, okay?
So like one, two, three, four, or five parts per billion.
Not that concerned about it because you can't avoid 100% of it.
But where I get concerned is when it starts to get into the tens of parts per billion, or especially in the hundreds of parts per billion.
That's, for me, that's when red alarms start going off in my mind.
So avoid GMOs.
The easiest way to do that is to buy organic.
There's also the non-GMO project that's out there.
However, the non-GMO project does not require glyphosate testing.
At least, that's my understanding.
That's what their policy was the last time I checked.
If they've changed it, then correct me on that.
But I don't believe they require glyphosate testing at all.
In fact, I'm quite confident of that.
We do glyphosate testing in our laboratory.
And I'm going to show you a short video here that's just our glyphosate instrument, which is a triple quad mass spec made by Waters.
And I recently posted a lab tour video.
I'm not going to show the whole thing, but I just want to play two minutes or whatever it is about the glyphosate instrument because I want you to see how large this instrument is.
It's very expensive.
It costs, you know, hundreds of thousands of dollars to purchase.
And then the annual maintenance on that machine is about $45,000, I think.
That's what's called preventive maintenance on it.
$45,000 per year just to run that thing.
So, you know, we're paying like $4,000 a month just to maintain the instrument that we use to test glyphosate.
And of course, we test all our products.
And you can now go onto our store, HealthRangerStore.com, and in every product category, or if you search for any product, there's now a new checkbox on the left that says glyphosate tested.
If you check that checkbox, it will only show you products that are glyphosate tested, which is almost everything, by the way, in our store.
Not, you know, not knives or whatever, but almost everything is glyphosate tested.
So you can now sort by glyphosate testing or heavy metals testing at the healthrangerstore.com.
But I want to show you this video of our glyphosate testing instrument.
So just to summarize here, number one, avoid GMOs and avoid conventional food, that is non-organic food.
Buy organic wherever you can.
And just as importantly, buy from sources that actually conduct glyphosate testing like we do.
And there's not very many that do.
In fact, I'm not aware of anybody that does it as much as we do it because we test every incoming lot.
Every product is tested for glyphosate and heavy metals and many other things, as you probably well know.
All right.
The next thing is, how do you detoxify from glyphosate?
Well, here's the hard part of this is that glyphosate is very persistent and it bioaccumulates in your body and it moves easily through tissues.
Some people believe that you can use things like fulvic acid to chelate glyphosate.
I'm not entirely sure about that.
That's a possibility.
However, I think the best way to detoxify is to clean up your diet, drink lots of clean water, sweat through exercise and sunlight exposure, and depend on your body's natural detoxification process.
You will naturally detoxify if you stop the inputs of glyphosate.
So clean up your diet.
Stop eating glyphosate.
Stop spraying it on your lawn if you're still doing so.
Stop eating GMOs, etc.
And then your glyphosate levels will fall on their own.
And over a period of several weeks, you would have a much lower circulating level of glyphosate in your blood if you were to have it tested.
The other thing that you can do is you can join us here, naturalnews.com.
You can read about glyphosate on our website.
You can demand that our government ban glyphosate or ban all organophosphate, pesticides, and herbicides because these are destroying the neurology of the American people.
And even though Trump says that glyphosate is good and that it's a, it's a, what do you call it, a national security critical resource now, that's insane.
It's like saying war is peace and what freedom is slavery.
This is Orwellian.
And then, you know, glyphosate is national security.
It's insane.
Glyphosate is not national security.
Glyphosate is a derivative of toxic, deadly nerve agents designed to kill people.
That's just a historical truth.
So we should ban these.
Glyphosate should be banned from use.
And some people say, well, then how will we grow food?
Because people have been lied to by the glyphosate industry for all these years.
Say, oh, well, glyphosate's needed to grow 80% of the food in America.
That is not true at all because glyphosate was only really commercialized in 1974.
And I've got scans of newspapers from the 1950s and 1960s, and I assure you, they are filled with ads for grocery stores.
And the food was abundant, and it was very affordable.
I mean, dirt cheap food, obviously, in the 1950s and 60s.
Even if you take into account dollar devaluation, the food was much cheaper, and there was no glyphosate in existence at the time.
So we obviously don't need glyphosate to grow affordable food.
In fact, food prices have gone up after introducing glyphosate.
So food toxicity has gone up and food prices have gone up.
And you know why?
Because glyphosate destroys the soils.
Just like it destroys the microbiome of your body and your gut, it also destroys the friendly bacteria in the soils.
And once the friendly bacteria are destroyed, then you have dead soils.
And now you have to treat the farm like a chemical repository.
That's why it's just sprayed with endless chemicals because the soil's dead.
So it doesn't promote healthy plant growth.
You don't have healthy crops that are drought resistant and that are disease resistant, etc., because you've killed the soil with glyphosate.
So the real answer to this is to regenerate the soils, reintroduce microbes, stop spraying all these toxic chemicals and heavy metals on the soils.
You got to let some fields rest for a couple of years to bring back the healthy microbiome.
You can't do clear-cut monoculture everywhere.
You know, the soils have to be able to live in a more natural, organic environment.
But that's not the way today's agriculture works because it's a militarized, chemicalized, agricultural, industrial weapons complex, basically, is what we're all living under.
And that's why Americans are so unhealthy.
That's why so many people are losing their ability to think.
That's why so many people are dying from cancer.
Well, plus the jabs on top of that, you know, turbo cancers.
And this is why people are so unhealthy.
Because as Americans, we are eating more organophosphates and more glyphosate and taking more jabs than any other population in the world.
Stockpiling Nerve Agents vs. Gardening 00:04:07
And we are rapidly becoming the least healthy people in the world.
And we pay the highest of anybody in the world for healthcare costs, even though it's clearly not working because we are not the healthiest people.
So if you want to make America healthy again, Maha, even though that acronym is now a total joke, it doesn't, I mean, it's almost an insult to our intelligence because the Trump administration has abandoned every principle that Maha once claimed to stand for, right?
But if you really wanted to make America healthy again, you would ban organophosphates, you would ban glyphosate, and you would encourage regenerative agriculture.
And you would also encourage people to grow their own food.
Food security doesn't come from the government stockpiling nerve agents.
Food security comes from teaching people how to grow their own food.
And as luck would have it, you know, we have connected with an amazing teacher of all of this, Marjorie Wildcraft.
And her course called Wartime Homefront Essential Skills is available right now at BrighteonUniversity.com.
The course is on sale for just $75.
Full digital download of all the seminars, all the materials, all the videos and the instructional content of how to grow a huge percentage of your own food in a very small space, even just a tiny backyard, just the size of two or three parking spaces.
You can grow a large amount of your own food without using glyphosate.
Marjorie teaches all of this.
Again, you can find it at BrighteonUniversity.com and just scroll down.
It's right there.
It's the second course that's offered.
Now, learning to grow your own food, yes, it takes some time, but it's a great investment because that's the food you know you can trust.
That's the food that doesn't have glyphosate in it.
It doesn't have organophosphates in it.
It's not toxic and it's incredibly nutritious, especially if you allow things to ripen before you pick them, like, you know, tomatoes.
They're supposed to get ripe, which increases the nutrient density with nutrients such as lycopene, for example.
So growing your food at home, that's the way for America to achieve food security.
But that's not the way the Trump administration sees it.
They are not encouraging you to grow anything.
They're encouraging the country to stockpile nerve agents so they can feed you poison when you're starving instead of teaching you how to grow your own food.
And what does that tell you about the future that's coming for America?
A country run by a government that is building concentration camps across more than 20 states.
A country that has vastly increased the Pentagon budget that is building kamikaze Terminator drones that can hunt down and kill people.
A country that's stockpiling nerve agents to spray the food crops so that if you are in a food line, the food they give you will slowly kill you.
What does that tell you?
What does that tell you about our current administration?
What does that tell you about the depopulation agenda?
What does that tell you about the urgency to learn how to grow your own food, get off-grid, get away from the grocery stores as much as you can?
See, these are the principles that I've been teaching for decades, and so has Marjorie Wildcraft and many other people I've interviewed.
And if you want to stay informed about all of this, here's what you can do.
Let me give you some tools.
So number one, you can check out our free book creation engine website at brightlearn.ai.
There are hundreds of books there, all free to download, that teach you how to garden and grow food and preserve food, all of it.
It's all there.
You can also generate your own book completely free if you don't find the book on the topic that you want.
That's an AI book creation engine.
Again, we have over 36,000 books there now that you can download.
Yeah, it's a lot.
Unique Chemistry Pump Vacuum 00:04:58
Secondly, if you want to research anything about glyphosate or organophosphate compounds or VX nerve gas or sarin or whatever, you can use our AI engine called brightanswers.ai.
Brightanswers.ai.
We've had users issuing millions of prompts over the last few months at brightanswers.ai.
It does deep research across millions of pages of scientific documents, published books, articles, transcripts, you name it.
It's an incredible engine.
It's incredible that it's free, by the way.
If you knew what went into it, you would think we should be charging for it.
But nope, we're keeping it free, at least for now.
So check it out, brightanswers.ai.
And then also you can stay up to date on all of this news at naturalnews.com.
And you can watch my videos and interviews about this topic and many other topics at brightvideos.com.
That's brightvideos.com.
Now I want to play for you just my segment from my recent lab video explaining our triple quad mass spec instrument, which is a waters instrument.
It has really unique chemistry, kind of unusual for liquid chromatography.
We actually went the LC route on being able to quantitate glyphosate at very low detection limits, sub five parts per billion, for example, using a novel technique.
I spent about 18 months working with my fellow chemists to validate this method.
It's an incredible method, and it avoids something called post-column derivatization, which is a very crazy, toxic method.
We don't have to do that.
We can see the glyphosate directly out of the column.
But there is some pretty crazy chemistry and some pretty crazy columns, let me tell you.
These aren't your standard C18 carbon columns.
Not even close.
Glyphosate goes right through C18, by the way.
If you know anything about lab chemistry, you're probably familiar with C18 carbon columns.
But glyphosate goes right through it.
It doesn't matter what solvents or what gradients, your mobile phase, doesn't matter.
So I'll show you this video.
And remember, shop with us at healthrangerstore.com if you want heavy metals tested and glyphosate tested foods and supplements and personal care products because we've got the cleanest things in existence at healthrangerstore.com.
So enjoy the rest of the video here and keep your life glyphosate free because you don't want to eat nerve agents.
Let's see what else do we have here.
Oh, so this triple quad mass spec here is from a different company.
This is from Waters and this is a beast.
So this instrument, I actually worked on this method for a year and a half to develop this glyphosate quantitation method using a really unique chemistry here.
So we don't rely on what's called the post-column derivatization.
We don't need to do that.
Instead, we use a really unique column, which I'll just show.
There it is.
This is a very special column, very unusual.
It's not a C18 or anything like that.
And we have a very unusual chemistry.
This column is completely nuked by any alcohols, including methanol.
So the entire, the mobile phase and all the chemistry of this instrument has no alcohols in it at all, which is very unusual for any kind of liquid chromatography.
The auto sampler is right here.
It currently doesn't have any samples.
We're not in the middle of a run at the moment.
And the reason this is so large is because this is a triple quad mass spec.
So it has to draw an extreme vacuum.
So it's got a rough pump and it's got a really massive turbine pump inside to dump every last molecule of air that might find its way into the system.
And that happens also when you're introducing your sample into the system.
It's sucking in air to push an ion stream through the quadrupoles.
And that's why it has to pull a strong vacuum.
On the screen here, we were just pulling this up.
There's a typical peak that you see.
There's a calibration curve right there.
And these are standards right now.
This is not actually a food sample.
But when it's live running, you'll see the actual food samples here.
Now, let me show you what's behind all of this, a little bit of behind the scenes, because this is kind of cool.
This right here is just a UPS.
This UPS is necessary to power this machine during any kind of power glitch.
And these UPSs are thousands of dollars each.
Here's a rough pump for this machine.
This rough pump is incredibly powerful, uses a lot of electricity, pulls a vacuum through this tube right here.
And that's why it has to have its own metal reinforcement spiral inside to prevent the tube from collapsing.
Iran Closure Crisis 00:14:58
Welcome to this special report, which is an analysis of what's likely to happen if Trump moves forward with the U.S. attack on Iran.
And then Iran seems likely to close down the Strait of Hormuz, through which a tremendous percentage of the energy flows, that is both LNG as well as oil shipments, flows out of the Persian Gulf countries to the rest of the world.
So the shutting down of this strait or even the selective shutting down of it where Iran would only allow friendly nations ships to pass but would block other ships, this would be a catastrophic event, a global black swan event, which could devastate the United States economy and could destroy the U.S. dollar.
So that's what this report is all about.
So welcome.
My name is Mike Adams.
I'm an AI developer and I've built multiple AI platforms.
And of course, I've used AI agents and research agents to help me gather the information for this report.
If you want to take advantage of our AI technology and our curated data set, which is many millions of pages of published books and science papers and interviews and articles, you can use the tool at brightanswers.ai.
And we've got some new features coming soon for brightanswers.ai also, but you can use it for free right now, and you can do research on anything you want.
It's really remarkable.
So let me give you an overview here.
It looks like Trump is walking into a really a lose-lose situation.
Yes, if the U.S. attacks Iran, then the nation of Iran would suffer a tremendous amount of damage, economic damage, infrastructure damage, loss of life, loss of some amount of leadership, etc.
But the United States would also lose.
Not only would the U.S. probably lose some number of personnel or ships or aircraft or soldiers on the ground or soldiers in military bases around the region, but the U.S. would lose in terms of global credibility.
It would lose in terms of its economy, supply chains, and of course the impacts of the cutting off of the energy markets, which would lead to a financial catastrophe for the United States.
And that's a lot of what I'm about to talk about here.
So let me just cover a brief table of contents, so to speak.
We're going to cover the financial and monetary ramifications, the market liquidity crisis in particular.
I'm also going to cover the geopolitical power realignment that would happen from this.
Essentially, the Gulf state countries would strengthen their ties with, well, Turkey and Egypt and even with Iran, and they would move further away from the United States and Israel.
We're also going to cover the global trade and shipping and supply chain implications.
Those are also catastrophic on top of everything else.
We're going to cover some raw materials, primary metals and so on, and how supply chains are impacted for that.
And then social factors and political factors, as well as labor markets in the United States, how this will cause mass unemployment and will worsen national debt.
There will be also implications for agriculture and the food supply, as well as grocery prices, plus risks for accelerating regional warfare.
And we'll see power blackouts around the world because of the loss of access to LNG or liquid natural gas.
So that will have implications for the technology sector.
Essentially, we are looking at a global reset event.
And maybe that's exactly what Trump is trying to pull off.
The great global reset, so they can seize your money in the bank.
They can tell you they've rescued you with this CBDC that they're rolling out.
Look, it's digital money.
All you have to do is scan your iris, consent to be surveilled, and you too can have your money back in this digital form.
You know, something like that may be exactly what's planned, but they need a war in order to justify it.
So let's start with the basics here.
The world runs on oil still.
There is some wind and some solar, but it's a small percentage compared to oil and gas.
I should say the world runs on fossil fuels.
And of course, right now, I think it's estimated 20 plus million barrels per day of oil come out of the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz.
And if you haven't yet familiarized yourself with the map of the southern coastline of Iran and the Strait of Hormuz and what that looks like and the Persian Gulf region and the Sea of Oman, et cetera, you need to look at that map because this is going to determine your future.
Seriously, no matter where you are listening to this, you need to understand that choke point.
It's probably arguably the single most critical choke point of geography on planet Earth.
based on our modern civilization and how it functions.
So yeah, over 20 million barrels per day of oil go through there and approximately estimated 30% of liquefied natural gas or LNG.
So if this is blocked, then we're talking about an almost instant global catastrophic crisis of energy and banking and finance and currencies and electric grids and more.
And don't forget, it's also possible that some of the oil fields in Saudi Arabia could also be struck by Iran, which would further exacerbate the critical fossil fuel shortage.
But most experts who have talked about this have said that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz would send oil to $130 to $150 per barrel within just days.
So that's, I mean, depending on how high that goes, it's almost doubling current prices, which means gas prices would skyrocket, diesel prices, etc.
And also then that means transportation costs would go up almost immediately, and then food prices would rise because of the transportation factor.
But that's not the end of this.
Oil could go to $300 a barrel if the closure continues for a period of time and if there's a significant amount of damage done to Iran's infrastructure by the U.S. bombing.
Now, if the U.S. does this, it's kind of economic suicide for the West because Iran can rebuild, but the United States is so heavily leveraged in a financialized economy running on debt fumes that the U.S. could actually be toppled by the repercussions of all of this.
That's what we're going to get into here.
So, number one, we're going to see massive global inflation because energy inputs are the number one cost for most things, whether it's manufacturing or transportation, as in the case of food.
But also, for food, there are fossil fuel inputs into farming and harvesting, not just transportation.
And even liquid natural gas is used in fertilizer creation, for example.
So there are ramifications here that are just catastrophic.
So we're talking about inflation going to even officially 15 to 20 percent for groceries and essential consumer goods, which means in reality that inflation is going to be more like, you know, 30 to 40 percent.
Now let's talk about the currency.
The U.S. dollar would suffer extreme volatility.
There might be an initial surge in dollar value as Europeans and people from other countries rush to the dollar with a perception that it's kind of a safe haven in times of instability.
But the dollar is backed by nothing.
And one of the things that China could do during all of this is China could simply announce, and they wouldn't have to fire a single shot to do this.
China could announce that they have gold reserves backing the Chinese yuan currency.
In other words, they could announce their audited gold reserves.
That would set off a global shockwave of basically panic among those holding dollars or euros or yen, and there would be a mad rush, undoubtedly, into the yuan backed by gold, or even partially backed by gold.
So that would be a major blow to Western currencies and a huge boost to BRICS currencies.
And remember that China can also pledge loans or grants to Iran for the rebuilding of whatever damage the United States achieves in bombing Iran.
Russia can also make such pledges, and perhaps other countries will as well.
Although, you know, some countries are so impoverished themselves, like Egypt, that it's unlikely they would have any spare cash, right?
But China could, and Iran could relatively quickly rebuild whatever infrastructure was damaged.
But the damage to the reputation and the credibility of the U.S. dollar would be permanent.
Because if China announces, hey, we're basically dumping the dollar, we're going to dump the rest of our treasuries, and we're going to announce the gold-backed yuan or Renminbi, then the dollar's done.
At that point, the dollar is done.
And this is one way that China could completely pivot the outcome of this conflict without firing a single shot.
Now, on top of this, you would see U.S. Treasury debt yields spike because the Treasury would have to pay higher rates in order to entice anybody to invest in the debt of the United States.
This would be even worse if the U.S. suffers, let's say, the destruction or the loss of some naval vessels or stealth fighters, stealth bombers, F-35s, or other aircraft.
If Iran manages to destroy almost anything, a plane, a ship, an aircraft carrier, then the United States loses so much credibility on the world stage that treasury bond yields will rise.
And that makes it even more expensive for the U.S. to refinance its exploding debt.
So all of that is going to lead to a banking and market liquidity crisis.
You will see almost certainly a global stock market correction among Western countries.
We're talking about the UK, Japan, the United States, Canada, etc.
Probably would see a correction 30 to 50% in the S ⁇ P and mainstream stocks.
On top of that, yes, tech stocks could also get hit as well.
Many people think tech stocks are overvalued right now anyway.
Perhaps they are, but this would be a correction event that no one would escape.
As that is happening, there would be a massive influx of money moving into gold and silver.
So right now, gold is sitting at right around $5,000 an ounce spot.
Silver is just under $80 an ounce.
Gold would be almost certainly more aggressively impacted by this than silver, at least percentage-wise.
It would not be crazy to think that gold would move to $6,000, $7,000 an ounce, or $7,500 an ounce in the days following the closure of the Strait of Horbuzz.
It could go even potentially much, much higher.
Now, will it stay there?
Hard to tell.
But if China is wanting to announce the gold backing of its own currency, it's actually to China's advantage to have gold prices much, much higher.
And you may have noticed, if you've been paying attention to the silver markets and the Shanghai exchanges, that in China, which is currently still in its Chinese New Year phase here, it's just about to end, China has essentially outlawed the manipulation of paper shorts in the silver market.
And if they apply the same logic to the gold markets, then that helps eliminate the New York and London attempted manipulation of gold and silver markets through paper selling by J.P. Morgan and other actors, you know, nefarious actors.
What that means effectively is that gold, by simply being allowed to rise organically to its natural price, gold could be headed towards $10,000 an ounce.
And that then would mean that the millions of ounces, or gosh, that's not even a big enough number.
I don't know how many ounces China has, but let's say it's hundreds of millions of ounces, okay?
I don't know, maybe it's billions, who knows?
Let's just call it a billion for fun's sake here.
If they have a billion ounces of gold, they would want that gold to be worth more than less, right?
So it's actually in China's interest to see gold move towards $10,000 an ounce before they announce that the yuan is backed by gold.
Because the higher the gold value, then the higher the percentage of backing of the yuan is represented by the gold once China announces its audited storage numbers.
Like, hey, we have a billion ounces.
I don't even think they describe it in ounces.
I think they describe it in tons.
And I think it's more like, you know, 20,000 tons of gold is what they have, something in that range.
That is a boatload of gold.
I can't even imagine 20,000 tons of gold.
My goodness.
It's going to take a lot of forklifts.
So anyway, this is going to spill over into other metals markets such as copper and aluminum and zinc and so on.
And so this is going to cause incredible economic pain for industrial manufacturers and importers of any of these metals, whether in the United States or elsewhere around the world.
Now, there's more.
There's more.
Shipping Insurance Rates Skyrocket 00:15:59
Once war begins, you know what happens to insurance premiums on shipping?
Anything that moves through even the Indian Ocean or the Arabian Sea or the Red Sea or the Suez Canal or the Mediterranean for that matter, you know what happens to the shipping insurance rates?
Yeah, they skyrocket.
On top of that, probably some of the targets that are going to be bombed by the United States are themselves insured.
And also, Iran is going to bomb targets.
It's promising to lob all kinds of missiles at Israel and to turn Tel Aviv into Gaza, essentially, which is some weird kind of cosmic karma on Israel.
But Lloyds of London is an insurer that could face almost an incalculable level of claims.
Perhaps tens of billions of dollars, maybe more.
Who knows?
I don't know what their portfolios look like.
But between the insurance claims and then the heightened new insurance costs for shipping, we're going to see a shutdown of a lot of international shipping in that region for an extended period of time.
All right, so this will, of course, add a lot of friction to international banking and finance and supply chains, and it's going to cause economic havoc back in the United States.
All right, so now let's talk about geopolitical alignment and what's going to happen or realignment, technically, what's going to happen after this.
Because if the United States attacks Iran, then the U.S. broadcasts to the world that the U.S. Empire is the aggressor, that it had no real justification for attacking Iran, that the U.S. is a terror regime that will bomb and kill anyone at once for any reason, even when those countries are attempting to negotiate.
This will be the perception all over the world.
What will happen is more countries will move away from emphasizing U.S. markets, and they will move away from diplomatic recognition of the United States, one way or another.
More countries will come into the fold of BRICS nations.
These other countries, whether they are Middle Eastern countries or even South American countries or Southeast Asian or many European countries, Eastern Europe, etc., they will find that dealing with Russia and China and Iran is much safer, more lucrative, and more sane than trying to deal with the United States, which is a nation run by currently satanic pedophiles who are utterly insane.
So you're going to see a mass exodus away from the United States in terms of global trade and diplomatic ties.
And this is damage, reputational damage to the United States that will last for decades.
In particular, you're going to see the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, the GCC countries like Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, they're going to suffer severe economic consequences because of their ties to the United States.
And also because, of course, their exports are going to be completely blocked by the Strait of Hormuz.
So these regimes, which are, in most cases, tyrannical dictatorships, let's be honest, they are going to suffer internal strife.
They're going to suffer economic catastrophe.
And they're going to face their own existential crises where many of the current leaders in those countries may not survive.
Now, for Israel, Israel will receive a massive bombardment of missiles from Iran.
That is, unless somehow the United States has a magical first wave attack weapon, alien technology that fires lasers from orbit or something and somehow completely disables all of Iran's missiles before they can fire them off.
I don't think that that technology exists.
Thus, within the first few minutes after the missiles from the United States are in the air and U.S. bombers and fighters are in the air, which can now be easily detected by the anti-stealth radar that Iran possesses thanks to China, as well as the Chinese radar ships that are floating in that region and keeping an eye on the skies and are also capable of detecting stealth bombers and stealth fighters, etc.
The moment that the U.S. launches an attack, the moment Iran realizes this is happening, Iran initiates, it pulls the trigger on the mass bombardment of Israel.
Israel, well, Tel Aviv was nearly destroyed last summer in June during the so-called 12-day war.
This time, there will be no stopping.
It won't last just 12 days.
Iran will fire missiles for weeks on end.
And Tel Aviv will be turned into mostly rubble, as well as many military bases and infrastructure systems, including the critical water supply, desalination plants that Israel relies on for its water resources.
In addition, Israel's ports, ammo depots, you know, military facilities and oil storage facilities of any kind would probably be targeted for total destruction.
Now, the thing is, the United States can't stop this.
And the so-called iron dome that's said to protect Israel has already been shown to be a complete joke.
That's why the United States is sailing the USS Ford aircraft carrier.
I believe that's the most recent modern aircraft carrier.
Sailing that closer to Israel in order to try to provide some air cover for Israel, because the U.S. knows that the Iron Dome doesn't work.
On top of that, there's not much left in terms of munitions or interceptors that are fired by the Patriot missile batteries.
So even if Israel can stop some of the first incoming wave of missiles or drones, or even hypersonic missiles, which is doubtful, even if they can stop some, Israel very quickly runs out of interceptors and other munitions, very quickly, probably within 48 hours.
And after that, it's a free-for-all.
As long as Iran can shoot off the missiles, then there's nothing Israel can do to stop them.
And much of what we see today of Israel will be completely obliterated.
And there's very little even that the USS Ford can do to stop that.
And U.S. aircraft carriers themselves may suffer damage and have to sail back home for lengthy, expensive repairs.
Now, interesting in all of this is the fact that China doesn't want the Strait of Hormuz to be closed because China, of course, depends on oil exports that pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
So, you know, China needs to import a lot of energy.
However, China has done two things that's really intelligent.
Number one, China has been stockpiling a tremendous amount of energy storage, you know, oil in particular.
And secondly, China has engaged in more energy partnerships with Russia.
Famously, that new pipeline, forgot the exact name of it, but it pipes gas from the Yamal gas fields in northwest Russia, crossing over Mongolia and terminating in northern China in the industrial cities there.
That pipeline does not yet exist, but it's under construction, and it shows the partnership between China and Russia.
China can lean on Russia and other oil exporters, although Trump has removed Venezuela from that possibility list on purpose.
But China has other ways to import energy.
In addition, China has the largest solar farms in the world right now.
You may not know that.
And China is also building wind farms like crazy in order to create a more reliant domestic energy supply that can help power its energy needs.
China also builds coal-fired power plants on seemingly almost a daily basis.
And they have numerous nuclear power plants under construction that are faster and much more capable compared to U.S. nuclear power plants that seem to take about 15 years to build.
Now, if the Strait of Hormuz closes, Russia will be an economic winner because Russia, of course, exports a lot of energy.
The value of that energy would skyrocket.
So if the U.S. attacks Iran, one of the main financial beneficiaries will be Russia.
Essentially, Russia will earn new billions of dollars or tens of billions.
Well, I shouldn't say dollars because they won't be trading in dollars, but rubles or whatever they're trading in.
Russia will have a windfall of profits that can help fund its ongoing military operation against Ukraine.
So in other words, by Trump bombing Iran is helping Russia fund its war with Ukraine.
And you know which countries will be hurt the most by closing the Strait of Hormuz?
Western European countries.
The United Kingdom.
You know, I mean, France, Italy, even Germany for that matter, which sooner or later is going to have to turn to Russia for energy, obviously.
But, you know, Spain, etc., we're talking about a cutoff of energy that would be catastrophic for many Western European countries.
Absolutely catastrophic.
Their economies are already very fragile.
Look at the economies of Germany and France in particular.
They would face a collapse of industry.
Widespread deindustrialization, followed by widespread job loss, pension losses, bankruptcies, followed by probably nationwide uprising and protests, revolts against their own corrupt governments.
You can hardly blame them.
So we're talking about the fall of nations stemming from, or at least the potential fall of nations stemming from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
So if Trump wants to set all this off, well, I guess all he has to do is start dropping bombs on Iran, and the rest of this happens like dominoes falling.
So there's more.
There's more.
We haven't talked about the disruptions in global trade and shipping, supply chain collapse.
So first of all, war in that area would cause a great many ships to be unable to traverse the Suez Canal because they don't want to get anywhere near this war.
They don't even want to sail through the Red Sea.
And the insurance companies may prohibit them from doing that anyway.
So they're going to have to sail all the way around the Cape of Good Hope, all the way to south of Africa.
So that has about two weeks of transit time and millions of dollars of costs per voyage of these large cargo ships.
So now we're talking about increase in transportation costs and delays in supply chains.
The fact that these ships would no longer be going through the Suez Canal would cause a collapse of revenue for Egypt, which is already broke, like I mentioned earlier.
Egypt is paid billions of dollars a year by the United States, basically to not attack Israel.
With the money collapsing because the U.S. started this war, Egypt might decide, hey, we're done with the West, and we're actually going to, we're going to attack Israel.
There could be an Egyptian-Israeli war in southern Israel that begins because of this.
No joke.
I mean, they've been itching for that for a long time.
In addition, there would be basically global gridlock in shipping.
So we're talking about many ships not being able to pick up loads, oil or gas.
So they're basically just stranded out there, just sitting out there, costing tens of thousands of dollars per day.
We're talking about then freight rates skyrocketing, even for those that are able to traverse some of these different choke points, such as the Red Sea or the Suez Canal.
The war risk, as I already said, would vastly increase insurance costs.
So the bottom line is we're talking about supply chains getting delayed and supplies getting way more expensive.
So who does that hurt the most?
Think about it around the world.
Who does that hurt the most?
So who is the most dependent on importing materials for manufacturing?
Well, in Asia, clearly that's Japan and South Korea and to some extent Taiwan.
In Europe, that's clearly Germany and France.
They would be hurt the most.
We're talking about automotive industries, electronics.
We're also talking about shortages of those things.
So if you thought it was hard to get RAM or CPUs or GPUs or hard drives now, just wait until this war begins and then try to buy hard drives or NVIDIA GPUs or what have you.
It's going to get insane.
We're going to have a global bottleneck of everything.
India would suffer through a lot of inflation and cash flow problems, probably social unrest in India if fuel prices rose significantly, because many people in India, a country of a population of over 1.3 billion people, many people are just on the edge of poverty.
In fact, most of them.
And even small increases in fuel prices have a devastating impact on the ability of Indian people to afford to eat.
So if fuel prices start to skyrocket, you're either going to have to have government subsidies, which puts the Indian government into deep debt, or you're going to have social revolts in India.
Now, in China, this is going to hurt China too.
That's why China doesn't want this war.
China relies on a lot of imports for its industry, including energy imports, like I mentioned earlier.
So in China, they would have to probably impose fuel rationing, and they would tend to reserve fuel for the military and critical infrastructure to keep cities running.
China would suffer a manufacturing decline, which means a decline in exports.
And so that would cause more domestic unemployment that would tend towards a social uprising in China as well, as unemployed, hungry, broke people are typically not happy with their governments.
Crazy Expensive Goods 00:04:26
So the destabilization here will impact both Eastern countries and the West.
Well, let me just say, Eastern countries like China, but also India, as well as Europe, as well as Japan, Korea, and the United States.
Nobody gets away scot-free from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
Nobody.
So in the United States, you can expect gasoline to hit, well, it depends on the state, but in California, it'll easily be over $10 a gallon.
Even in places like the Midwest right now, it could easily hit $6 a gallon.
Transportation costs will rise significantly, which means consumer goods costs will go up, farming costs will go up, all the inputs into food will rise, and so food prices will get even higher.
Meanwhile, Trump and the White House will tell us every day that, oh, the prices are going down.
Everything's more affordable.
You know, because they think you're stupid and they think you don't shop for food.
But when you do shop for food, you will, of course, notice, oh, my God, this is insanely expensive, even more than we already witnessed.
Globally, the bottom line here is we're going to look at a global depression, a global depression, stagflation, high inflation combined with negative growth, a contraction of economies.
So the shutting down of industry, another way to say this.
the contraction of industrial output combined with much higher prices on consumer goods and food.
This is what's going to happen globally, just so that Trump can appease Netanyahu and do the bidding of the crazed Zionists in Israel.
I mean, imagine, they're willing to sacrifice the whole world just to hurt Iran, you know?
Amazing.
Corporate profits would plunge, which means stock market valuations would also plunge.
We'd probably have a big correction in the U.S. stock markets.
Bankruptcies would cascade throughout the system.
And that would especially hit hard the commercial lending banks that are already reeling from making commercial real estate loans with very high rates of non-occupancy.
I guess I could say low occupancy rates of commercial buildings all across America right now, especially in the major cities.
That's going to get even worse.
And you're going to have bank failures in the commercial sector stemming very quickly from this war if it happens.
The aviation industry would be sharply impacted due to loss of transportation demand, higher prices of jet fuel, as well as less discretionary income by air travelers.
You're going to see energy-intensive primary materials such as aluminum or concrete or polymers or steel, anything that requires a lot of energy will get crazy expensive.
And so that's going to result in a decline in production or construction as well.
So far fewer commercial buildings will be built, fewer homes will be built, fewer factories will be built.
But also, since this will affect aluminum and steel, fewer automobiles, fewer aircraft.
This will be across the board.
Any material that has a lot of energy that goes into it is going to get crazy expensive.
So this leads to the next set of dominoes to fall in all of this, which is the social factors.
Now, I've already mentioned quite a few social factors here, which is widespread unemployment and desperation among people in various countries, including India, probably Germany, perhaps China, perhaps South Korea, etc.
These people will tend to rise up.
Their household budgets or discretionary income will be destroyed by the price shock of supply chain price increases, food increases, and energy price increases, transportation increases.
Potential Military Coup Against Trump 00:15:14
So at first, people are going to be really, really freaked out, panicked, even just fearful.
It won't take long before that transforms into anger, anger at their own governments, especially in the United States, because everybody's going to point to Trump and say, you son of a bitch, this was your choice.
You initiated this war.
You didn't have to.
Why did you do this?
We're going broke over here.
Our business is failing.
Our farm is failing.
We're having to sell our house.
We can't afford transportation.
Food inflation is through the roof.
Can't afford to feed our kids.
You, Trump, you did this.
You're going to hear a lot of that, a lot of that.
And of course, politically speaking, the GOP will be absolutely destroyed in the midterms, just obliterated.
Probably the Senate as well, which means that Democrats will control the House and the Senate.
And at that point, they're only going to have one agenda for the next two years, you know, starting January of 2027.
What will their agenda be?
Criminally prosecute Trump and his family and his cabinet members.
Like anybody within arm's length of Trump will be investigated and prosecuted by any means possible for years to come.
Now, I understand that the DOJ would still be under the control of Trump and Pam Bondi, who is covering up the crimes of pedophiles, obviously there's no criminal that she won't cover up.
There's no crime too great for Pam Bondi to sweep under the rug.
But when the Democrats sweep into power after the 2028 election, that is, if we still have a country by then, I'm not entirely convinced we will, but who knows.
At that point, then the Democrats put in their own attorney general.
It's their DOJ.
It's their House.
It's their Senate.
It's their presidency.
And it's their DOJ.
It's their FBI, etc.
At that point, Trump and his family will have to flee the country.
They'll probably end up living in Israel if there's anything left or somewhere else far out of the way because they will all be criminally prosecuted.
But those are just some of the political ramifications of this.
And most of the American people will support that because people will be living in poverty and bankruptcy and homelessness and collapse because those are the that's what's going to happen here if Trump moves forward with this.
He's going to cause widespread poverty.
And it's the easiest way to lose an election is to make people impoverished across the country.
Remember, it's the economy, stupid.
Remember that from the Bill Clinton days?
And need I add, as people lose everything, as Gerald Salenti says, when they lose everything and they have nothing left to lose, they lose it.
Yeah, you're going to have social unrest.
You're going to have uprisings.
You're going to have, I mean, basically in America, you're going to have, in certain areas in the cities, you're going to have something that looks a lot like a civil war.
But it won't be one unified civil war.
It'll be city by city.
Trump will probably end up deploying the U.S. military against the American people and using U.S. military assets such as A-10 warthogs firing upon crowds of Americans because Trump has already demonstrated that he's willing to order ICE agents to execute Americans in broad daylight, in cold blood, on the streets of Minneapolis.
So they've already said they're willing to kill Americans who are protesting.
You know, if you're out there in the protest crowd exercising your First Amendment rights, Trump can just say, well, drop bombs on those crowds.
They're all terrorists.
And then, you know, Pam Bondi will give an announcement.
Well, we saw they were terrorists, you know.
So we had to kill him.
I mean, because that's what they do every time.
If they kill you, then they say you're a terrorist.
So, yes, we're going to have uprisings, civil war type of scenarios.
We're going to have probably labor strikes.
We're going to have left-wing sabotage teams, no doubt, doing crazy things, setting vehicles on fire on the bridges, you know, spiking railroads, whatever other kind of chaos they can cause.
I mean, it's going to be bad.
It's going to be bad because you're going to have a civil uprising.
I mean, you might actually have a left-wing attempt to overthrow the United States government.
I don't think that attempt would succeed, but they might try it.
Heck, if it gets bad enough, there might be a military coup against Trump, for all we know, because the military still leans, at least the higher brass still leans left.
There might be a point, you know, if their ships are sinking and their planes are getting shot out of the sky, there might be a point where they say, no more.
We're going to arrest Trump because he's unfit to be our commander-in-chief.
I mean, that's a possibility.
I'm not predicting that.
I'm just saying these are the kinds of things that you should be considering.
You know, the worse the U.S. military does in this war with Iran, the higher the chances are that there could be a military coup against the Trump regime.
And believe me, almost nobody is going to defend the Trump regime.
Not even former Trump supporters, except for, you know, a few connected neocons and whatever, the hardcore, you know, paid MAGA propagandists.
Yeah, of course, they're going to support Trump.
But most of former MAGA supporters despise Trump at this point.
I would say 90% of them.
So there's not going to be, you know, it's not going to be like a pro-Trump Second Amendment uprising against the left or against a military coup.
Basically, I think most of the former Trump supporters would sit back and say, you know, do what you've got to do to the military if the military were carrying out a coup against Trump.
I actually think, and I'm not condoning this, just to be clear.
I'm not condoning it.
I don't want any violence.
I'm not calling for it.
I'm just saying that I think a lot of Americans would silently cheer that at this point.
It's so insane what's happening in D.C. that even a return to the days of Joe Biden, believe it or not, would seem more sane than what we have now.
And I know that sounds astonishing, especially to hear that coming out of my mouth as much as I was a critic of Joe Biden.
But where we are now is literally worse in so many ways.
And I'm no fan of Joe Biden.
Don't get me wrong.
But we need to restore some sanity here in this country.
We've got to stop these punitive tariffs.
These are my opinion statements, okay?
So I'm going to take a tangent here off the analysis for a second.
But in my opinion, we've got to stop the mad money printing and funding the Pentagon death machine.
You know, a $1.5 trillion budget is insane.
We have to stop these insane tariffs, which are destroying our supply chains, destroying U.S. manufacturing businesses, and raising prices on consumers.
We've got to stop the government's war against the people.
You can't have mass government thugs running around the streets shooting Americans, you know, for God's sake.
We've got to stop Trump cozying up with every poisonous corporate monster that exists out there from, you know, Bayer, which bought Monsanto and pushing glyphosate, to Pfizer pushing the vaccines, to big tech pushing surveillance and Skynet and autonomous killer robot technology or drone technology that's probably going to be turned against the American people.
This is insane.
So that's just my opinion.
I think that a lot of Americans would either do nothing or would actually cheer some kind of change in leadership right now.
There's no question in my mind that that's the way a lot of people feel.
And if Trump orders this attack on Iran, it's going to get even worse for him, I think, especially if the U.S. loses assets out there.
Okay, so those were my opinions.
Let me get back to my attempt to continue this analysis.
All right, let's talk about labor markets and unemployment.
Obviously, mass unemployment will explode.
You're going to have a welfare state crisis because so many people will need some kind of government assistance.
The number of people on food stamps will explode.
The number of people showing up at food banks will explode.
You know, energy subsidies, there's going to be record demand for that.
Eventually, you're going to have to have a government that just starts handing out money.
Universal basic income.
UBI.
And on top of this, don't forget there's AI job replacement that's happening at the same time.
So you're going to see a wave of unemployment even without this war.
The war will only make it worse.
And most people are going to lean on the government.
And that means in order to provide a UBI, Trump or whoever's in power is going to have to print trillions of dollars, like a trillion dollars a month, to cover all these benefits.
And then U.S. debt goes into a parabolic blow-off phase that ends in absolute catastrophe and total dollar devaluation.
And now then, on top of this, there's no reason to believe that the war would stay limited to just the U.S. and Iran.
It would grow.
Remember what Michael Yahn always says, that wars grow.
They always grow.
They become larger than you expect.
They take longer than you expect.
And they go in directions that you don't expect.
So wars are unpredictable.
They always grow and they always take longer.
That's exactly what's going to happen.
This could end up involving, of course, the Persian Gulf nations there from Qatar and the UAE, Iraq, Kuwait, etc.
But it could also involve Turkey, Egypt, and then Russia and China.
It could involve, I mean, Pakistan has nuclear weapons.
They're in the region.
There are a lot of scenarios here that escalate this thing way beyond our control.
This thing could go nuclear.
Israel has nuclear weapons.
Iran has the technical capability to put nuclear weapons on missiles, I believe.
And at the same time, Russia could give Iran nuclear weapons.
Or Pakistan could.
Or China could, for that matter.
Here, have 10 nukes.
Have fun with the U.S. Navy.
Iran has the ability to launch nuclear weapons and to get them within close enough proximity to detonate on top of aircraft carriers.
Do you think a, I don't know, do you think a hundred kiloton nuclear warhead will sink an aircraft carrier?
Well, that's about what would that be?
It's like seven times larger than Hiroshima, something like that.
Yes, yes, that will destroy an aircraft carrier and it will kill everybody on board.
Don't be surprised if you wake up one morning soon and you find out that Iran has sunk a United States aircraft carrier and 5,000 sailors are dead or close to it.
And the Eisenhower or the Abraham Lincoln is at the bottom of the sea.
Don't be surprised because that's exactly what can happen.
If that were to occur, of course, Trump's political future is done.
And the anti-war protests nationwide would be just immeasurable.
But also, the reputation of the United States would collapse worldwide.
That's when you would see China move on Taiwan.
That's when you would see China announce probably the gold-backed valuation of its own currency, the mass selling off of U.S. treasuries, and even Japan would probably just start dumping treasuries at that point.
It would have no choice.
The dollar would be finished.
The U.S. economy would collapse.
The presidency would be in chaos.
You would end up not just with impeachments, but criminal trials against Trump and his family members as the United States economy would be collapsing with the collapse of industry, the collapse of exports, the collapse of manufacturing, and the collapse of supply chains from other countries.
Because again, the disruptions of international shipping and the disruptions on energy would be catastrophic and widespread.
So from this, many areas around the world would experience rolling blackouts because their power grid relies on LNG or in some cases like diesel backup generators, etc.
But a lot of gas turbines power the power grid in different areas.
When power grids fail today, it's a big deal because it takes down data centers.
And I'm not even talking about AI data centers.
I'm talking about just cloud-based computing.
And in China, there's a lot of that.
And you start disrupting China's power grid, then things get pretty dicey there with the economy and with e-commerce.
And also, of course, industry and manufacturing, semiconductor manufacturing would be impacted as well.
You know, if you lose power in a semiconductor factory, you lose the whole factory full of like three months of semiconductors that are in process.
They're done.
They're ruined.
You can't lose power or you lose the entire harvest is the way that works.
So unreliable power will have massive economic consequences in terms of disrupting microchip production.
Magic Happens Here 00:14:30
If you thought GPUs and RAM were scarce today, just wait until Trump starts bombing Iran and the Strait of Hormuz gets closed.
In fact, one of the most sane things you could do if that happens is run out and just buy up all the computer stuff you need the very next day because it's going to be gone.
It's going to be gone for years.
That is where this is going.
So bottom line, Trump is about to trigger a global reset event.
He's about to become the black swan.
Like Trump is the black swan.
Like he painted himself black and taped, used duct tape to put on some wings and he's trying to fly off a tall building.
Trump is the black swan if he attacks Iran.
He is going to set into motion a cascading series of highly destructive events that will cause social upheavals, massive currency devaluations, government destabilization worldwide, geopolitical conflict, political ramifications in the United States that will be devastating for the GOP, as well as mass poverty and homelessness and famine.
on a global basis as food prices skyrocket because of the increased cost of energy inputs into food as well as transportation.
That's what Trump is about to set off.
Trump will become the most hated person in history right next to Adolf Hitler and maybe Joseph Stalin.
But actually, Trump would probably be right there next to Hitler, I'm guessing, in the amount of damage that he is about to unleash on the world for no reason other than to appease the insane apocalyptic Zionists of Israel.
There is no reason to attack Iran.
There is no justification.
Iran is no threat to the United States.
This is something that Trump would be doing by choice.
And the world would recognize that.
The world would remember that.
And as every person suffers for a decade to come, who would they blame for that?
Donald J. Trump.
And the Trump name will become one of the most hated names in history.
So much so that Trump family members will eventually probably be forced to change their names.
Anything with Trump on it will be considered evil, filled with hate.
If you thought Trump derangement syndrome was bad before, it's about to go on turbo power if Trump starts this war.
The Trump name will be hated for generations to come.
Kind of like the name Richard Nixon is hated, and Richard Nixon didn't hardly even do anything bad compared to what Trump is doing.
It's not even close.
I mean, it really is no comparison at all.
And anybody in close proximity to Trump will find themselves completely blacklisted, unemployable, reputation destroyed.
Anybody who served in the Trump administration is going to realize this reputation risk will be permanent, a permanent stain on their record.
People like Pete Hegseth will never find meaningful employment again.
Even RFK Jr. must be looking around right now and wondering, like, what did I get dragged into at this point?
JD Vance will have no political future, etc.
So these are some of the ramifications if Trump attacks Iran and if Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz.
So let us all step back from this and pray and hope.
I mean, use every means possible.
Meditate, whatever, that this war does not get initiated by Trump or by anybody.
We need to step away from this escalation, de-escalate, bring the world back from the brink of economic destruction so that we can find some stability, we can find some reliability in supply chains, in manufacturing, in food prices, in currencies, etc.
War helps no one other than, well, Netanyahu and the military-industrial complex.
Unfortunately, that's who's pushing Trump's buttons right now.
If Trump listens to Netanyahu, it will be the most catastrophic mistake, not only in his life, but the most catastrophic military mistake in the history of the United States of America for its entire history, including the Civil War.
That's how bad this is.
So let's hope it doesn't happen.
Trump has a chance to turn some of this around.
He could fire Susie Wiles and dump all these horrible advisors and actually start listening to the people.
There's still a chance to do that.
He could pivot now and maybe save the GOP in the midterms if he wants to.
But it doesn't look like that's what's happening.
So we'll see.
We'll see.
In the meantime, if you want to stay informed, read my articles at naturalnews.com.
I'm publishing two or three articles per day, typically.
And you can catch all of my videos and interviews and podcasts and rants and analysis, whatever you want to call it, at brightvideos.com.
That's my new video site, brightvideos.com.
And you can also share this video and other videos there on X and other platforms because this site, BrightVideos.com, has not yet been banned by X.
And maybe it will never be banned.
But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Thank you for listening.
I pray for America.
And, you know, I even pray for Trump to come back from the Epstein control grid.
You know, I pray for Trump to come back to America.
Put America first.
Put the American people first.
We've got people suffering right here at home in America.
We've got veterans that need help.
We've got hungry people on the streets.
We've got people that are losing their livelihoods.
We need help for the American people.
We don't need to go bleed and die on the shores of Iran for a bunch of Zionists that don't care how many Americans die as long as they get their end of the world scenario and the rebuilding of the temple and they think God's going to return and save them from this world war that they are starting.
I tell you, it's very clear.
God condemns genocide.
God condemns the initiating of wars, which is what Trump is about to do.
There are spiritual ramifications of this that I haven't even gotten into.
That's beyond the scope of this conversation.
But seriously, if Trump wants to save his soul, he has to disconnect from Netanyahu and the Zionists.
He has to return back to America and start putting the American people first, or he will destroy his presidency, he will destroy the GOP, and he will destroy the future of this nation.
That's what's at stake.
So thank you for listening.
I'm Mike Adams.
Be well.
Take care.
We're realistic.
We understand what's going on, and we're not dismissive of it.
But these people that come to Anarca Pulco are solutions-based.
They're not going to sit around watching the negativity that's going on without trying to do something about it.
Magic happens here, but you've got to put yourself in a position for good things to happen.
You cannot fight for freedom if you are in pain or you have no energy.
We have to build our own systems outside of a broken system.
You can't fix a broken system inside of the system.
That's not going to happen.
So we're in this incredibly crazy video game.
We're this totally evil globalist camal that have control of everything.
And somehow we have to win this game.
And we're at the point now where it is survival.
Okay, welcome everyone to this extraordinary interview here.
We've got three guests joining us.
I'm not on video today, but our guests are.
And we begin with Charlie Robinson.
Welcome, Charlie.
You are at Anarca Pulco right now.
You want to give us an update of what's happening there?
I am.
We are at the Anarca Pulco 2026.
This is the 12th annual Anarca Pulco.
It's the largest anarchist conference in the world.
It has been happening in Acapulco, Mexico up until this year.
We outgrew the spot.
We have relocated to Puerto Vallarta.
We are in the Puerto Vallarta Convention Center.
This is day four.
We had David Icke remotely on the stage.
Today I was interviewing him.
We've had an all-star lineup.
We had Patrick Henningsen yesterday, who flew in from Iran to speak about what was happening in the Middle East.
It's been just a fantastic group of anarchists, health-conscious people, freedom-minded individuals, and people who have interest in cryptocurrency, sound money, and removing themselves from the system to the extent that they can, of course.
And it's just been, it's been an outstanding crowd.
It's been the largest group I've seen here in many years.
And well, tell me, what's the overall vibe right now?
I mean, you sound pretty excited.
I know it's great to be among like-minded people, but shit's getting crazy in the world.
If you just talk to Patrick Henningsen, you know, I mean, I'm sure he gave you some great intel.
What's the overall vibe?
We're realistic.
We understand what's going on, and we're not dismissive of it.
But the people that come to an Acapulco are solutions-based.
They're not going to sit around watching the negativity that's going on without trying to do something about it.
So we acknowledge the insanity of the world because we must, but we don't remain captive to it.
And what's happening here is that people are talking about solutions that are outside of the system, building parallel systems that don't require us to participate in their games anymore.
You're talking to people that are teaching you how to leave the United States, how to get citizenship elsewhere, or how to stay in the United States and find the best place to bug out to a survival zone, a place to build a homestead, how to build a homestead, who to talk to.
And then after people get off the stage doing their presentations, there's usually an opportunity for the viewers to sign up for workshops with these speakers as well so they can really drill down into some information.
So actionable information that people can incorporate into their lives when they leave here.
People are really in high spirits.
It's a good vibe.
It's a really uplifting place.
But that being said, we're aware of what's happening in the world.
We just have put it on pause for a couple of days so that we can figure out what we're helping out.
Yeah, no kidding.
And I think what you're talking about there, these are the skills and the mindset that's going to be absolutely necessary to make it through whatever's coming here.
It seems like a multi-vectored assault on our minds, our freedom, our money, our bodies, our health, everything.
It's wild.
And there was a great speech that Max Egan gave talking about keeping one foot in the system and one foot out, talking about how he navigates this world.
You know, you need to travel and you have a passport to travel.
How can you justify that?
I have one foot in that system, and then I take one foot out when I need to.
So this is a lot of people, when we did a poll from the audience to see how many people were new this year, this is their first time, a little over 50% said that this was brand new.
So there's an awakening happening.
There are a lot of people that are here.
The common theme, I would say, is that people feel like they're at a crossroads.
They know that they need to do something.
They're not maybe sure exactly what it is, but they know that they need to be in a place where they're going to be around like-minded people, get inspired, maybe make some connections.
And then after this, what I've noticed over the six years that I've been doing this, three as a speaker and three as the MC, magic happens here.
But you've got to put yourself in a position for good things to happen.
Well said.
Now, I know you've lined up a couple of great guests for us to talk to here.
One of them is Marjorie Wildcraft as well, who will be coming up.
But real quickly, before we transition to the first guest, tell our audience about your website where they can find your articles, your work.
Yeah, well, I am the new owner of Activist Post.
You can go to activistpost.com.
We are an independent news website that's been operational for 16 years.
After the first 15 years, the previous owners approached me and asked if I would be willing to buy the company and take it the rest of the way, manage the process and take care of their baby.
And of course, I was humbled by that and have taken the role seriously.
An activist post has stepped up here as a sponsor of Anarca Pulco.
And I hope that people will take a look at the site as a one-stop shop for a lot of the news that you are going to need to understand in order to navigate this world.
We have a section on crypto.
We have a section on empire and the economy.
We have a podcasting section for those who aren't necessarily big readers.
And of course, activism and solutions.
Most importantly, solutions.
Because if we're just complaining about these things, but we're not giving people an opportunity to do something about it, then we're just scaring them.
And we don't want to do that.
So that's the theme of Anarca Pulco.
That's the underlying theme is we're going to give you some solutions to the problems that we see.
And we're going to bring in sponsors that we think are a great fit.
And they're going to help you out.
And if you want to work with them, great.
And if you don't, that's okay too.
You never get the, there's no pressure here.
It's a very warm audience and a fantastic group of people.
But the sponsors are also an excellent fit.
And Chemical Free Body has been a sponsor of my show for many, many years.
And Tim James is the owner of that company.
And he's had to listen to me tell him, you've got to get to Anarca Pulco.
You have to.
You have to.
And last year he did.
He came with a guy from his team.
And this year he came with three because he knew that he was going to need help because it was so popular.
So I'd like to welcome to the show my good friend, the founder of Chemical Free Body, Tim James.
All right.
Hello, Tim.
Hey, Mike.
Decentralize and Thrive 00:05:23
Been watching you for years.
Thanks for having me on, brother.
Fantastic.
Thanks for taking the time to join us here.
So yeah, this is the first time we're talking.
It's great to meet you.
And of course, I love the vibe of your company, Chemical Free Body, but you want to give us a quick just introduction?
Yeah, sure.
So I grew up over in Eastern Oregon on a cattle and hay farm hunting and fishing and ended up playing baseball as a financial advisor.
Processed foods got me.
And by age 37, I was shit in blood for two and a half years.
I had gastrointestinal issues really bad.
I had eczema all over my body, cracking and bleeding, mental fog, and a lot of stress.
We had three offices and 18 employees, three offices.
And it was just a grind.
And I was busy paying the mortgage, raising my kids, doing all that good stuff.
Then my friend got diagnosed with cancer.
And that's when we went to this Hippocrates Health Institute place and we learned about detox and nutrition.
I completely changed my life and healed myself, became my own doctor.
And I've been on a mission now to help other people get their energy back because I know energy is the foundation.
I don't care if you have stage four cancer, you have Graves disease, Hashimoto's, osteoporosis, osteopenia, MS, anything.
Riding shotgun is low energy and probably low energy was there first.
So what we want to do is we want to inspire people to get their natural energy back, burn the disease out and give them the energy to start walking, mini trampolines, and then start baby stepping their way into better health because you cannot fight for freedom if you are in pain or you have no energy.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
And I love the fact that you're talking about a gradual improvement.
You don't have to do something radical overnight.
You just have to make small changes that are steady, right?
Yeah, absolutely.
Okay.
And for our audience listening here, you know, what are the big takeaways of what you're learning there at the event that will affect their ability to grow food, to get more self-reliant, to get more off-grid away from the centralized toxic food system?
Well, I think most importantly, there's people that have already done that.
Like, I'm one of them.
Like, I've already taken back my health.
I'll be 53 years old pretty soon, coming up in June.
I've been on this journey for 15 years.
So when it comes to health freedom, I feel like I've cracked the code because I'm healthier than almost anybody that I know, especially my age.
I'd like to say that my 25 and 22-year-old sons can't keep up with me on the trail run, which is pretty awesome.
And if they do, I'm going to figure a way to beat them because I want to stay ahead of the game.
So they got to catch old dad.
But, you know, there's a lot of people here that have already homesteaded and they, you know, they've built, like Charlie said, they've built these other.
We have to build our own systems outside of a broken system.
You can't fix a broken system inside of the system.
That's not going to happen.
So what people can do here at Anarca Puco is they can come, learn from somebody like myself on their health, and I can download a simple three-step framework for them to get it back.
Or somebody that wants to learn how to homestead or start their own garden.
We teach people how to grow sprouts in their home because you don't even need soil.
There are sprouts that you can grow on your home that are 10 to 30 times more nutritious than fresh-bricked vegetables, and they make salads and food taste better.
Your kids are going to have fun doing it.
It brings family together.
It brings community together.
And you can flood your body with living nutrition.
So we can download these frameworks to you.
There's also the financial frameworks.
Charlie mentioned about passports.
I've already went through a process with Christopher Gronsky over at destinationfreedom.org on how to become a state citizen again, just like you were when you were born.
So I resubmitted my passport application because I met him here last year without putting my social security number on the application.
And we attached a 10-page explanatory statement, and they issued me a passport without putting a social security number on that.
So now I've re-announced that I am a state citizen.
I went through that as well in the state of Oregon with my driver's license.
And I'm currently working on getting my LLC S Corp out of the federal zone too in Washington, D.C. and making it just a natural private company again.
So this is decentralize and thrive as a philosophy.
Yeah.
And the bottom line is, is that when you look at the hierarchy of things, it's like there is God in your relationship with God, and everything else is below that.
You're not here to serve any other interests, even the state, especially not the federal government.
And if people would read the Constitution, they would find out that the federal government was only put together for one reason, and that was to secure our rights.
So if you lived in Florida and you wanted to come out and see me in Oregon, you would have the same rights and privileges driving from Florida to Oregon and all the way back home so that you were safe and secure.
But now they've gotten into money.
They've gotten into the education and school systems.
They've gotten into farming, which is destroyed.
I grew up as a farmer.
We did cattle and grass hay and alfalfa hay.
And I couldn't even go get horse manure anymore to put in my organic garden because they're spraying the alfalfa with an herbicide.
And if you and the horse concentrates that herbicide in its gut and you put it on your garden, it's going to retard the growth of your vegetables and the food you're growing.
And then you're going to consume that and it's going to destroy your health.
It's going to put estrogen mimicage in your body.
And for you guys, that's going to lead to man boobs and women, breast cancer, ovarian cysts, and all kinds of problems.
Farming's Decline And Health Risks 00:03:45
So I believe that we have to get back to the relationship directly with God.
Everything else can just be subservient to that.
And if you're dealing with health issues, understanding the reason why you're sick, the reason why you're in pain and you have low energy is because you're detached from nature.
And the solution is simply reattaching to the mothership and letting God do its work.
That's right.
100% with you on that.
Well, Tim, thank you so much for joining us.
Your website is chemicalfreebody.com, correct?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I have a podcast called Tim James Upgraded.
We were over 300 shows.
I've been doing it since 2019.
And that's just about my life and constantly upgrading my health.
And if I find something better, I'm going to tell you about it.
And I've interviewed a lot of wonderful people like Marjorie.
She's been on my show.
And Charlie.
And hopefully we'll get Mike on from Texas here pretty soon.
Love to join you.
I see your podcast on your site now.
Yeah, Tim James upgraded.
That's awesome.
Well, thank you so much, Tim, for sharing your philosophy and some time with us today.
My pleasure.
Here's Marjorie.
Or wait, here's Charlie.
I guess he's coming back on.
We're going to play.
Okay, all right.
Bye, guys.
All good.
We really are playing musical chairs.
We're just rolling from one to the other.
That's what we got to do.
We got to be nimble.
I've been doing that all day long.
This is day four, so I've been doing it for a couple of days.
I'm in the zone right now.
So, yeah, I know you got to go here very shortly.
Is there anything else you wanted to add before we talk to Marjorie?
Well, this is such a great place for your audience to come maybe next year, 2027.
Hopefully, they'll take a look at Anarchipulco.
People can get on the live stream.
There's a live stream that's available for purchase, and they can check it out and see what they think.
But I'll tell you, it's just a fantastic place to get everybody together.
We're thinking, we're really talking about the problems that we face.
You should have seen this dinner I had last night.
It was me and it was a late night session talking about the state of the world and the guys that were sitting around that couch.
It was some pretty heavy hitters that actually can get things done.
So I always come to Anarchipulco and feel two things.
I feel unbelievably inspired.
And then at the end of the week, there's a tiny bit of a letdown when you recognize that you have to go back to the real world.
While we're here, we're enjoying ourselves.
And I'd like to bring in our mutual friend, the great Marjorie Wildcraft, who will be happy to wrap this up for you.
I am needed back on the main stage, so I'll let her take it from here.
It's great to connect with you again, Mike.
Thank you for everything you do, Charlie.
And I'll talk to you again soon.
Okay.
Be with Marjorie.
All right.
Hey, Mike.
Welcome.
Hey, I'm doing great.
It's great to see you.
And, you know, I'm imagining because you live in Puerto Rico.
So it didn't take you that long to get to this event compared to a lot of other people, right?
You know, I live in a small, I know I've been talking so much I've got a little bit of the throat thing going on.
The networking here is amazing.
It's still a journey to get here because I live in a little tiny seaside village.
I have to go to big town.
It's all that.
But regarding this event, Mike, I got to tell you, I don't do much events anymore.
I've come to this for four years and I've done all of them.
Everyone you can think of, the Red Pill, the Greater Reset, you know, used to do tons of Mother Earth News.
And back in the day when we had the survival and preparedness expos.
And the big difference here is so like, you know, I love the Greater Reset, but everybody there is brand new.
And when you're brand new, usually you're pretty angry.
You know, you're waking up.
And here, there's just a whole bunch of the old guard that have been anarchists for decades.
Unbelievable Change Awaits 00:10:09
They know it.
They've been like, hey, we got to do.
And I think one of the themes here is parallel systems.
Like, we got to build parallel systems.
We got to build parallel food.
We got to build community.
You know, we need to, actually, there's a talk this afternoon on mesh networks.
There's all kinds of stuff on cryptos and how do we do silver and gold and precious metals.
How do we do parallel our own money systems?
And there's a lot of really practical, like, this is how we do it.
So that's what you get to once you get past the five stages of grief with Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.
And the first one's anger and denial.
You know, now we're into like, let's get this done and new solution.
And almost all the speakers here, like myself included, we're just hanging out.
We're here the whole time with people and talking to people and in the hallways.
I'm actually grateful it's recorded because I don't actually get to many of the sessions because I'm, you know, so many people, can I, can you, what can I help you with?
You know, where do I do this?
And I'm like, yeah, let me help you.
And it's a really wonderful thing.
I mean, there's a feeling here.
We all know we're the underdog, right?
So we're in this incredibly crazy video game where there's totally evil globalist cabal that have control of everything and they're satanic, pedophile, you know, cannibals or whatever.
And somehow we have to win this game.
Right.
Even though they are the gatekeepers, they control the money, they control the laws, they control so much, but they don't control our minds.
They don't control our creativity.
And they can't crush us all.
So, you know, the event is so consistent with what you have taught for years, which is to get off-grid, grow as much of your own food as possible, be self-reliant.
So I want to ask your opinion on the fact that President Trump just issued an executive order yesterday declaring that glyphosate is a federally protected national security critical resource.
They put it under the purview of the Secretary of War.
I mean, I'd actually heard that glyphosate was added to the organic standards.
I don't, I haven't heard that.
I don't know if that's true or not, but you know, look, you and I, you know, you wrote that book, Food Forensics.
What was that, 2016?
2014?
Yeah, we warned about all this.
Yeah, when you read that book, you're like, don't eat anything from the commercial food supply.
You know, that's definitely a message I've had for a long time.
Yeah.
And they're just, they're blatantly telling you that.
You know, another part of that might be they are definitely orchestrating a famine.
And so glyphosate is the key chemical that's needed for growing almost everything that they grow: the corn, the soybeans, the whatever, right?
And yeah, so they may be regulating and tightening down access to that for those systems as a way to continue to clamp down on the food supply.
Make no doubt about it, Mike.
They are orchestrating a famine.
I know you've had like David Dubine on, and some of the, there's a lot of people talking about this, and it's, you know, it's been ongoing for years, the war on farmers and on all farmers.
And, you know, it's not just the organic farmers, it's the, you know, the conventional farmers.
There's also another thing that just happened in Texas.
There's a big pushback by the farmers union against the AI data centers, which are using extraordinary amounts of land and water and power.
And I, of course, I stand with the farmers on this, even though I'm an AI developer.
But I'm like, put your AI data centers in orbit, dumbasses.
I mean, put them in outer space.
Don't take our farmland, you know?
But they're taking the farm.
What are your thoughts on that?
Yeah, I totally agree with you with that.
And there's lots of other, we have other technological solutions.
I think I've mentioned to you before, like the Theta network is a way to connect up all the existing unused computer resources.
So like your phone, most of the time you're not using it, has a big chip in it.
And I mean, the Theta network has found a way to, it's sort of like Uber and Airbnb found a way to utilize unused cars and houses and bedrooms.
It's the same thing.
So there's a lot.
We're incredibly creative and innovative.
And we live in a time with this unbelievable change.
We have a lot of solutions for this.
Clearly, the globalist don't want solutions.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's obvious.
Yeah.
So they also don't want nutrition.
So one of the things that Trump said in his executive order was that glyphosate is critical to produce healthy food.
Oh, good Lord.
I know, I know.
It's like it's so Orwellian.
You know, war is peace and herbicides are health.
You know, but that it seems to me, and I want your comments on this, that people who stay stuck in that system are really committing a slow suicide.
You know, if you think that more pesticide and herbicide chemicals and organophosphate chemicals that interfere with your brain function are going to make you healthy, you need to wake up.
What would you say?
I totally agree with you there.
And one of the conversations that's been here is just noticing there's like been a great divide.
And I think it started actually with the whole COVID experience, the pandemic, of people who are like really becoming aware that this thing is completely corrupt and falling apart.
And those who are getting totally enmeshed in it and are never going to get out.
And it's actually really quite, I mean, a lot of us have been dealing with the grief of that because most of our families, you know, they did that and they're in that system.
I did a talk yesterday on how to find the perfect survival retreat.
And prior to 2020, I used to say, you know, when you're looking, you got a lot of factors.
One is family.
You know, blood is thicker than water.
You know, wherever you're going to live, you want to make sure you've got family on board.
And honestly, I said, I've had to change that.
I mean, it's just now complicated everything because most of our families are jabbed and boosted and brainwashed.
And, you know, it's like you don't want to give up on family, but we got to be real about what's happening in the world.
So we're living in, and we haven't even gotten into the hard times yet.
I mean, we're living in some really extraordinary times.
I am very heartened that there's a lot more people waking up and making the choice to the underdog side.
Yeah, yeah, well, for sure.
But you said we're not yet into the hard times.
What do you think those hard times are going to look like?
And let me just preface it by saying it looks like Trump is going to, you know, bomb Iran.
It's going to cause fuel prices to skyrocket.
And by the way, almost all of the glyphosate that is used in America is made in China.
And China could block exports of glyphosate like they've done that with rare earths.
And even though you and I don't use it, it is used by mass agriculture to create low-quality poisoned food for the masses.
So tell us about your vision of what the hard times could look like.
Well, you can look at the trend over the last, you know, what, at least five years.
And what we're going into is a period of more and more nationalism.
They have slowly been deconstructing international trade.
Another one you didn't mention, which I'm sure is on your right.
Oh, by the way, I got to say, Mike, I love that one where you had the F-35 with the weights shoved in the nose cone.
I actually just laughed and laughed and laughed at it because China cut off, they control 60% of the world's silver and they cut off all exports to the West of silver.
And I think even if you're a Chinese company, you have to go through all get all layers of permissions.
So basically, they've just shut out 60% of the world's supply of silver.
You know, wait till China takes Taiwan.
You know, there goes every single computing resource.
And the radar, the nose cone radars, they require gallium and other rare earths.
And those are also restricted by China.
So we don't, in America, we don't make much of the things that our society needs anymore, obviously.
But assuming, and China is an ally of Iran.
So if we bomb Iran, it stands to reason that there could be some trade wars that escalate.
It's, you know, it's already happening.
We're seeing the tit and tat back and forth.
You know, when we took control over the Venezuelan oil and that, like, China gets a bunch of oil from Venezuela, right?
You know, so it's like I said, we're in this trend of, and it's what I mean, let me say two things.
One, we're in this trend of more and more nationalization, which means that you need to start going local.
And the good thing about seeing it, you can see it and we go, okay, you know, this is just another point on that trend line.
I'm not going to get afraid about it.
I'm not going to get upset about it.
But, you know, I might pick up an extra computer or two.
You know, I might get a little more silver.
I might start figuring out what business I can build right now that will serve people locally.
You know, start figuring it out.
What I really meant by that, and that's going to be hard.
Like supply chains are, you know, we're already seeing it with food prices.
We're already seeing it with bare shelves on stores or very thin shelves.
I don't know about you.
I buy a lot from Amazon, which I'm not super proud of, but I live in a small town.
And I've been noticing Amazon has less and less inventory.
Supply Chain Struggles 00:05:29
You know, they show you 50 things and they'll say, you know, 48 of them are unavailable, right?
But another, and yes, the physical stuff is going to get harder and harder to get, including food, which the price of food is directly correlated to the amount of violence.
But for me, the hard times have been, you know, one of my best friends ever got vaxed and, I don't know, boosted or whatever.
And I'm seeing this, I'm just going to mention this one friend, but I'm seeing it in a lot of other vectors of relationships I have.
She started getting some kind of neuropathy or something.
It was first, it was small and it's spreading and spreading and spreading.
And of course, she's going to this medical thing and that medical thing and trying all kinds of alternative stuff and nothing's treating it.
And, you know, the latest conversation we had is, well, I'm just going to have to start learning to live without as much mobility.
And she's just in this downward slide.
And you see that.
And, you know, my heart just breaks because she's just definitely not willing to acknowledge what is the most likely cause of that.
Of course, the medical system is not going to say, oh, it's because you've been vaccinated and you got whatever in your system.
Right.
Right.
And she's a healthy woman, was always active, ate, you know, really cleanly.
That's the hard part.
That's the emotionally hard part.
I've also noticed they're starting to try and normalize suicide.
You know, in Canada, it's the MAID system, the medically assisted induced death, which is basically suicide, is now like almost the largest cause of death in Canada.
It's like definitely number two or three.
It's like way up there.
Well, clearly this is an extermination phase of our country.
I mean, Operation Warp Speed was part of it, right?
And now the mass glyphosate poisoning, supersaturation of the food supply with heavy-duty glyphosate, which of course causes cancer.
But then famine.
So it's like, well, if you find food, it's poisonous, but you might not find food at all unless you grow it yourself.
And just last question for you.
Talk to our audience about why it's important to learn to have the experience of growing food now.
And it's springtime in Texas.
It's about to be spring in other states.
So this is the perfect time.
What's your message on that for our audience?
Yeah, well, we're in it, you guys.
This is the apocalypse.
And you know the roadmap.
It is war, it's famine, it's pestilence, it's death.
And this is it.
We're getting to live through this, and it's actually quite an honor to do so.
You know, you definitely need to stay connected with your inner guides and your inner source.
I also want to let people know, you know, people, for years, you know, Mike, I've been teaching people for decades and trying to get them to grow food.
I want to let you know that if you're reluctant to do it, look back at the programming you've had.
You know, the movies where the farmer was portrayed as an idiot, or, you know, the only person you saw gardening was like some teetering old man that had Alzheimer's or something.
You know, look at the programming, look at the messaging and realize that you've been programmed not to grow food.
And it's actually a lot easier and it's definitely a lot more rewarding than you would ever imagine.
And we're at the point now where it is survival.
You absolutely have to grow food.
I don't care how much money you have.
You have to grow food.
It's, you know, I buy at the farmers markets, of course.
But in any kind of emergency, they get completely swamped.
It's gone.
You know, there's just no, you know, it's fairly easy to do.
And I would really recommend you get started now because things that you need, like the seeds or the genetics, maybe the chicks or the chickens or the rabbits or whatever it is that you're going to be producing, those are going to disappear too.
So, you know, you've got to, you've still got an iota of time to get ahead of this.
And I really recommend you start like not tomorrow, but this moment, as soon as this interview is over, you know, start doing that.
And, you know, I've got that, it's a free webinar at backyardfoodproduction.com where I just, you know, go over, I've condensed 20 years of teaching people how to grow food.
And I show you how to grow food in a backyard size space, even if you have no experience, you're older, or you're out of shape.
So, you know, we're.
That's what I wanted to ask you: was the resources.
So that site, what is it again?
It's called BackyardFood Production.com.
And, you know, Mike, like almost everybody else, I'm like having to reconfigure my online business and we're having to jettison some things that we used to do that are too expensive.
But that webinar, I mean, we're at a point now, it's not about money.
It's about we have to survive as the underdogs in this gigantic video game with this unbelievably evil presence in this realm.
And, you know, this is the part that I have and that I've been led to work on for a couple of decades.
And you've got to have food.
Intercepting Moving Targets 00:06:15
Yeah, absolutely.
And I also want to remind our audience, we've worked with you on some courses, and we've got those available for sale at BrighteonUniversity.com as well.
Yeah, we have the wartime home front, essential skills.
That was very popular.
That's a really good one.
By the way, Charlie's back, and he says he looks like he has a minute.
Oh, okay.
Well, I'm going to hop off and let Charlie on.
Yeah.
That sounds great.
Yeah, definitely check out Bright View for the courses we've done together.
So thank you, Mike.
All right.
Thank you, Marjorie.
I'm back.
I was going through the lobby and I found somebody who I thought you might want to speak with.
Please welcome to the show the founder of 21st Century Wire, Patrick Henyanson.
Hello, Patrick.
How are you doing, Mike?
Hey, doing great.
It was such an honor to interview you recently.
I've been promoting the clips and people love your analysis.
I'm so happy to see you there.
Yeah, thanks.
It's a great gathering.
Great, great bunch of people.
Made many friends here over the last couple of years.
So I'm sure.
Yeah.
Am I right?
Are you wearing a shirt that has the colors of Iran?
Or what is that?
Oh, free.
Oh, Palestine.
Okay.
Got it.
I came straight from here from Tehran.
Tell us about it.
What's the overall vibe there right now?
The vibe is that people are in total solidarity, supporting the government, opposing the U.S. They're ready for war.
And people are just going about their daily life.
And if it kicks off, they're ready to go to war.
So they're not afraid of the U.S.
And they just feel like it's their last stand.
They can't be, you know, they value their sovereignty and their independence a lot in that country.
So they're not going to give up their missiles or their military equipment only to be just bombed to smithereens like what Israel did to Syria, basically.
Yeah, absolutely.
And in fact, I'm really curious, what else have you heard from people there?
Because the buildup of the military assets is really extreme.
And Trump is clearly a puppet of Netanyahu.
We all know that here in America.
Is there anything new that you learned there that you can share with our audience?
Too much.
Too much.
One thing I will tell you, and if you go to Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Davis, deep dive, I just did a segment with him today, an hour-long interview.
And so I got a chance to see their hypersonic missiles as well, as well as their anti-aircraft and their drones.
I even got to touch, I have a picture, maybe I'll send it to you.
They downed a U.S. drone.
They hijacked the signal from the satellite uplink and landed it in mint condition, state-of-the-art U.S. surveillance drone.
And they have a place you can go look at it.
But they haven't used their latest generation missiles last June in the war.
Everything they used was six years old.
Right.
They were clearing out the older inventory.
Totally.
And they don't want to launch it unless they have to, because once you fire the enemy, you fire at the enemy your latest, they can then, obviously you can fish out remnants of a missile even after a strike.
So they might be able to give away some of their technology.
So it's only as a last resort.
But their latest, their new FATA range for hypersonic missiles is a Mach 20.
And it has the ability, yeah, Mach 20, and it has autonomous course change in flight.
And so it makes it almost impossible to intercept.
What about advancements in precision?
Because my understanding was some of the missiles only had like plus or minus 1,000 meters precision.
No, It's much tighter than that.
Yeah.
You're talking about very old tech.
Okay, okay.
They have their own satellites and they use their own proprietary GPS.
What else have China's technology transfer to Iran?
Were you able to hear from people that does include like anti-stealth radar systems?
Yeah, they wouldn't talk about that.
But it seems to be the case, just from experts that I've spoken to.
And so, yeah, China is involved in assisting them.
And China uses the Baidu system, which is a separate GPS system, satellite guidance.
And so that's, but then they have their own proprietary uplink data transfer.
But they have all the tools to intercept and to disrupt GPS systems, which the West use.
So, you know, I'd say it's a very dangerous gambit if you're assuming that they don't have the capabilities to overcome U.S. air defenses or hit moving targets, Mike, moving targets, the new generation of missiles.
Like ships.
Is it also your understanding that China's ships in the area have the ability to assess activity in the skies, massive radar systems, and to transfer that intel in real time to Iran so that the element of surprise is lost to America?
I think so.
China has all these capabilities.
People don't realize how advanced China is when it comes to communications, and that extends to battlefield communications as well.
China has state-of-the-art in terms of, like, the U.S. has very advanced satellites, the best in the world.
And we might have a fleet of, let's say, 300 of those in orbit.
China has now the same tech.
They just don't have as many mobilized.
So they might have maybe half a dozen of those, but they still have this capability.
China does.
So I wouldn't underestimate it.
China's Space Tech Gambit 00:04:15
Yeah, absolutely.
This is a dangerous gambit if Trump initiates this.
Now, your site is 21stcenturywire.com, correct?
Yes.
Is there anything you want to mention to our audience about what you have coming up or what you're working on?
No, yeah, we've done some outstanding deep dives on aspects of the Epstein files, going into specific scandals that have massive implications.
And so, yeah, there's some great material there.
We've got great journalists.
And we're going to continue to sort of hit what we think are the interesting and maybe less reported, but very impactful aspects of that scandal.
Okay.
Well, keep up the good work.
And by the way, we're adding all the DOJ files to our AI engine at brightanswers.ai so people can conduct deep research using our AI engine, which is uncensored and not retarded.
Keep us in the loop because that's a great research aid for independent journalists, Mike.
So we'd be happy to give a shout out if our team's using that.
It's just great to have these tools, Mike.
So I appreciate you guys helping us out with that.
Absolutely.
Well, keep up the great work there.
Thanks for taking time out to chat with me.
It's always great to connect with you.
And we'll get you back on the show once you get back from this event.
Thanks, Mike.
I'm going to pass it back to the captain of the bridge.
Okay.
All right.
The captain of the Titanic, I think.
Okay.
Well, Charlie, that was great.
I'm so glad you spotted Patrick.
I just had him on recently.
I knew that.
That's why I was specifically seeking him out.
I thought it would be a great fit seeing as you had just spoken with him, and I knew that he'd just come in from Iran, and he gave a great presentation to a full house yesterday.
It was going to be very relevant for him to speak with you.
Absolutely.
Well, thank you so much.
Good thinking.
Okay.
Well, I know you're super busy today.
So is there anything else that you want to include here before we wrap this up?
I just hope that people will get proactive about this sort of stuff.
I mean, it's one thing to sit and watch as the empire crumbles, but you need to be making moves in advance of it while it's relatively calm.
Kind of hard to say that these days, but the calm before the storm.
So start making your moves now.
Be proactive.
It changes your mindset.
It puts you in a better flow.
And surround yourself with people that are like-minded who are doing things and remove yourself from the fight.
As Marjorie said, the people at this conference, we've been through this for many, many years.
We're not angry, we're determined, and there's a difference there.
And so the attitude changes, and we're just so grateful to be surrounded by so much positivity here.
And I'm inspired every time I come here and meet these people.
And it's my pleasure to be the MC of the largest anarchist conference in the world.
It's a tremendous place.
We hope to see you here and your team next year.
It'd be a great fit.
And for anybody that wants to connect with you.
For anyone that wants to connect with me, macroaggressions.io is my website.
My podcast is called Macroaggressions and ActivistPost.com is a great resource for people that want to find out what's happening in the world from independent journalists writing about things while they're dangerous, not four years after the fact when it's safe to talk.
Well, perfect.
And I can't wait to connect with you after the event.
We've got a lot of new AI advancements to share with you.
They're all about decentralization and empowering a pro-human future, believe it or not.
Using technology, though, to augment a pro-human philosophy.
So thank you so much, Charlie, for taking time.
It's always an honor to talk with you.
Don't disconnect now.
Stay connected, but I'm going to end the recording to my audience.
Thank you so much for watching.
You can catch all the interviews and podcasts at brightvideos.com.
All right.
Take care.
