You walked into the room and now my heart's been stolen.
You took me back in time to when I wasn't broken.
I are all I want and I knew it from the very first moment.
Because the light came on when I heard that song and I want you to sing it again.
Hello, Anna, welcome to Investigate Earth Podcast.
I'm yours Chad alongside my beautiful wife, Sherry.
Say hello, Sherry.
Hello, how is everyone tonight?
Hope everybody is doing fantastic out there this evening of April 2nd.
We got past April Fool's.
We didn't do anything April Fool's-wise.
Everybody is too sensitive nowadays to do anything, April Fool's.
If you make a joke nowadays, you'll be canceled, so everyone canceled April Fool's, I guess.
I think April Fool's is actually canceled.
I've seen a lot of people on Twitter.
They're like, I would do April Fool's this year, but I'm just afraid that I want to piss off too many people, so I'm not going to do it.
That's literally the atmosphere and the landscape we're in in this world, in this country nowadays.
It is too much now to do a joke because someone might get offended by a joke.
But that's the way it is.
Guys, by the way, can I be him, James Author?
That is the intro song.
James Arthur is one of my favorite artists.
He's freaking amazing.
and that song's awesome.
So I want to let you know, that's who it is.
James Arthur, cannot be him.
And guys, welcome to the show.
We are going to be talking about the bill to ban TikTok.
Now, the bill to ban TikTok from the outset
seemed like it was a very good thing, right?
You had the Chinese Communist Party
that had all of the control over the data
that TikTok was getting from American citizens,
bite dance, which is the parent company of TikTok,
and the CEO of TikTok just was recently in front of the house
and talking about or trying to answer questions
as far as how much privacy American citizens have
and how much the Chinese government actually has on American citizens,
how much data they're actually able to pull.
It's not that he didn't do great, it's just that, you know, look,
there's probably no question that China does actually, in fact,
get data from American citizens based on the app.
But I think China gets data on American citizens based on so many things.
And I don't think TikTok is the thing.
Right.
Just think about our phones, our iPhones.
They all come from China.
Yeah, they do.
Like there's so many things we use that are built and made in China.
And don't think they have some way of tracking us or getting information, you know, about us through these things they're making.
And another thing I just want to say, I know we're going to get into it.
But isn't it like?
Why does it even matter now?
Because there's so many people that have already signed up for TikTok.
Once you sign up, it's kind of like you're screwed.
You know, they already have it.
So why ban it now?
For sure.
Yeah, we're going to talk about all that.
A lot of people were slamming this as the Patriot Act for Digital Age.
For the Digital Age, this is the Patriot Act.
This is the one thing this U.S.
Deep State globalist government wants to do.
And they want to go on the back of something that American people will agree on.
American people will say, look, we don't want China to have all of our data.
We don't want China to have all of this information based on Americans because they could use this some, you know, war tactic way or global economic way, whatever the cases.
But it's just the United States government is just using this, just like they do school shootings, just like they do everything else, to try to take away another freedom or another right.
This is nothing more than that.
And so I, and we're going to talk about that.
But guys, this is very important because I'm telling you this bill, if it gets passed or gets signed.
And if this bill doesn't get passed or signed, there are more Republicans now.
Republicans were majorly on board with this whole thing, right?
And as people started calling in a question the legitimacy or at least the privacy or the constitutional aspect of the bill, such as Rand Paul and others, there are more Republicans that are starting to at least think about it to the degree.
of, wait, this might not actually be a good thing, especially considering the administration
that's in power now.
This is not just about China, guys.
We've kind of briefly touched on this on different podcasts.
It doesn't make a lot of sense.
It never has made a lot of sense to me, especially considering we have to understand that
although Facebook and Instagram and all these other companies, I mean, even Spotify,
what many of you listen to us on right now, although they are not connected to a communist
party necessarily, you know, they are other foreign countries that have these, you
you know, these things, which is why I think Spotify actually has been a good platform for they
don't ban everyone that doesn't agree with a certain narrative. I've been very appreciative of
Spotify for a long time of that. But the main reason for that is because they are not United States
centrally based and they are not based or obviously heavily influenced necessarily from the United
States government. And so we're going to talk about all this. It is very concerning because when we
talk about the Patriot Act and this is the Patriot Act for the Digit.
age for the for everything that we do now everything we do is connected to the internet connected
to social media connected to either you hear people which is what you're doing right now you're
listening to us over a network of of you know platforms and so on you know this is something that the
government especially considering they want to continue to push their globalist deep state
totalitarian agenda authoritarian agenda they cannot fully do that without full and complete control
over every asset of everything that someone does, whether it be what you say online or what you're
allowed to say, what you can't say, what you can listen to, what you can't listen to, what you can
read what you can't read. All of these things are coming into play now, and it's getting very,
it's getting to be a very scary time for all of us. But guys, before we get in this, I want to
touch on this. This is a thing we push, and we're going to push every single episode and
every single podcast, because especially what we're talking about right now,
there was something that Matt Taibi just talked about in terms of the bill and then some of the things they are starting to see in Twitter files now that are unraveling.
Even the fact that the FBI and DOJ and some of these other intelligence agencies within the United States government, not just United States government, we believe potentially some other governments around the world, but the fact of how they can manipulate some of these algorithms in social media companies.
They themselves have control and power to manipulate algorithms on Twitter, on probably Facebook, probably Instagram, probably all these other ones.
And so what they're trying to do right now, and I think they're also trying to get on the back of this TikTok ban, is they want to be able to completely control 100% every aspect of what you do online.
Because there are certain parts of online that they want to police, but they can't.
They don't have the ability to.
Matt Taibi recently said that the government actually in emails and various other
correspondents that they have come upon, that they are worried about certain platforms.
They are worried about telegram.
How are they going to infiltrate fully into telegram?
Because telegram is a encrypted user-to-user in platform.
For example, a WhatsApp used to be until Facebook and Instagram bought it.
So you might as well not even trust WhatsApp anymore because you know that all that
that as being pushed to the government. There's a reason these big tech companies buy these
encrypted quote unquote platforms because the government probably makes them or forces them to buy
them. So they can regulate or take charge or yeah. Yeah. And so part of this correspondence that
Matt Taeebi and others have seen is the fact of they are worried about platforms that they don't
have access to yet, right? But all we can do right now, guys, and what we're about to talk about
is going to scare you. It's going to scare you for your own mindset as far as how much information
are we ever going to be allowed to actually get
and where can we get that information
and how can we get that information?
Well, let me tell you,
we have moved our members-only stuff,
which we do have a free membership over on Substack.
All you got to do is look up and investigate Earth
with Chad and Sherry on Substack.
You can download the app in Google Play Store
or Apple iTunes or Apple, the App Store.
And it's so easy because you can just,
like if you have a Google email or anything,
you just click, how do you want to sign up?
Can you sign up through your?
Google email. You click a button, click a button, and you're signed up. It's not a bunch of junk.
Yeah, and even if you have like proton mail or some other, just freaking put your email and put a
password in. It don't ask a lot of information. If you want to put your picture on there or whatever,
but what it does is it sends you to this platform and then you join our community as is
Investigator with Chat and Sherry. When you get on there and we've been doing a lot of work over there,
I promise you, like recording, like every article that I'm writing right now to really try to
narrow down and explain why some of these things are happening, which are harder to do on
podcast. Like, for example, probably why the U-Russia Ukraine war is actually happening, the history
of Russia-Ukraine. And how close we are to World War III. I just released a new article that is
voiceover. You don't have to read it. You know, you can literally go there, hit play. It's the best
playing app. Actually, I like it better in Spotify. I like it better in any of that. You can listen
on Bluetooth, you can listen to all that. All you have to do is go over and sign up. Now, if you do want to
support us in our future work, there are paid options, right? And we do have members-only
podcast. We're going to have members-only
fireside chats, which is on video.
So where you're going to get us around a fire or
sometimes maybe not a fire because we might not have
access to a fire. Maybe it's a fake fire. Maybe it's a fake
fire. Maybe we put a freaking candle in
between this. But we're really going to try to
do fires, right, to where we are
chilling outside. We have the camera set up,
our live mics, which are going to be really good audio.
And we have a conversation. We just talk,
right? We have really good conversation.
We're going to do live streams like that to where you guys can
interact with us. We're going to do so much.
And we've already got a lot of content over there.
please, if you want to support us, whether it be free or you want to support us on the members
and the paid platform, which we're going to offer a ton of awesome content, please go to
substack, sign up for our substack.
It's easy.
You hit subscribe.
Once you sign up, hit subscribe.
And then every time we post anything, it goes to your email, right?
And so there is no way that we can be censored, right?
It's not algorithm-based.
It's none of that.
If you go and sign up for our substack, no matter what we ever have to say, whether Spotify
bans us forever, which who knows.
we are getting into the age, especially after this bill, there are going to be people like us and organizations or speakers or whoever that are going to get mass banned.
And you're never going to hear from them again.
You're never going to be able to find information you can possibly find.
You have to do things like this.
You've got to go follow people where there are censorship-free platform.
Substack is one of those.
And we encourage each and every freaking one of you to go do that, please.
And that's the last I have to say that.
Because it is awesome.
The people there are already over there.
It's really cool.
Yeah, the people there are over there, man, they can comment on our podcast, like our members-only
stuff.
So many of you signed up when we thank each and every one of you, by the way, for doing that.
And soon we're going to, like, talk about, we're going to, like, thank everybody.
We're going to go through our paid members, which we do have a lot of members already coming over.
It's a very, I don't know what the word is, but it's all inspiring that so many of you
are going over and signing up.
And so if you haven't, please do.
it's only going to help you to make sure that you can at least gather and get information,
even if they want to try to keep it from you. So this is how we got to fight. This is how we have
to fight Big Tech. This is how we have to fight the government. This is how we have to fight tyranny and
totalitarianism. It is by following and doing what you have to do to maintain freedom of speech,
and we have to keep doing this. And I think Substack is great. I think we will continue to be great.
Substack, for example, just asked some of their or a lot of their members, they sent out the email and
said, look, you know, some of our funding is starting to wane because of the fact that we are
censorship-free platform. And so we're asking people if you want to own a part of this company
and like, you know, a $100 minimum, you know, whatever. And their goal was, I don't know,
it was like two or four million or something. They like blew their goal out of the water.
Wow. I'm talking about like they raise insane amounts of money.
Like, is this kind of like a stock type thing? Yeah, it's like a stock buy option. But
But the amount of money they raised was insane.
And it's because people understand and realize that we are at a pivotal moment right now in speech.
We are at a pivotal moment in the battle against the globalist, the battle against New World Order, the battle against all that we are literally there.
And Substack is one of those knights in shining armor that is leading a fight.
So is Twitter.
So is people like Elon.
So is people like Rumble.
These companies, these companies are the ones that are going to offer a safe haven for people that want to hear and speak.
the truth. So I encourage each of you to do that. And guys, man, I mean, if you ever have anything to
say or write or write a article or you want to say, you want to say something, right?
Oh, that would be so cool. Yeah. Yeah. Even if it's on your phone, you want to record it on your
phone, send it to us, you know, and something that you want to talk about. We'll post it for all of
our members to hear or if you want to write something. Whatever. We'll do whatever, man. It's a community.
We're a family. So I wanted to get that out of the way. Sorry. I'm
I'm not going to bore you with that anymore.
So this TikTok ban is being slammed as the Patriot Act for digital age.
Now, what is the Patriot Act?
Well, let's explain.
The Patriot Act came after 9-11.
Okay.
Now, we've never done a full, full 9-11 series, which, I mean, it's just, it is so complex.
And we really want to get the right people on engineers and architects and some of these people.
And that's kind of tough sometimes.
But we are going to do that.
And when we do that, all of you will be the very first to hear it.
But the Patriot Act came after 9-11.
And this was a way for the government once again to utilize a tragedy, a national tragedy, whether they had anything to do with it or not.
We don't know.
But they utilized a tragedy, just like they do school shootings and everything else, to take away more of your freedoms.
Now, the Patriot Act came along, and it says that, hey, we're going to sign this Patriot Act into order, which, by the way, were Republicans that signed this into law.
law, okay, sounded great because you're like, oh yeah, we got to protect against the Muslims.
We got to protect against, and when I say Muslims, Islam.
And, you know, they basically generalized an entire race of people or even, I guess, religion.
Right.
Into, hey, guys, these people did this at 9-11, so we got to protect against those people.
These are the terrorists.
Yeah.
And there was a lot of people that hated Muslims and those people for a long time.
And I think it was on both sides of the party, actually.
But for them to do this, they had to put fear into people to say, we're going to do this Patriot Act to where we can surveil and make sure that any terrorist organization or terrorists sell within the United States, we're going to catch them first.
We're going to know anything they say or do.
We're going to know what they say and do.
But the problem is, is that what that really meant was the Patriot Act is going to be able to be able to.
surveil every single American citizen on the freaking continent of America, not even probably
in America. If you're somewhere else, they're going to be able to hear or see or know anything
that you're doing. The Patriot Act allowed that to happen. And they did that all in the name of
terrorism. And they said that we're doing this to protect you. But what it really did was take away
so much of our privacy and our rights in this country. And this TikTok ban is about to do the exact same
thing and they're once again blaming it on someone else. They're blaming on China and they're
saying, hey, look, guys, in order for us to make sure that you're safe as American citizens,
we have to, although we're not calling it, take away your rights, but that is what this bill is.
And I used to be one of those people. Like, who cares if they're going to, you know, listen to my
conversations or tap into my phone calls? Because I'm not doing anything wrong. I have nothing to hide.
So I don't even care if they're listening to me or, you know, doing anything like that. But
The more that life has changed and social media has changed and government has changed,
it's no longer that I don't care if they're listening to me because I feel like they're not only listening to me,
but they're going to censor me and they're going to make it so I cannot talk the way I want to talk or speak the way I want to speak or read what I want to read.
They're going to take away all my rights because it's changed so much from back then.
I'm talking about from 9-11.
Back in 9-11, like, no one really cared.
I mean, some people did.
They're like, they pretty much knew what was happening.
But a lot of us, normal people, were like, well, as long as I'm not doing anything bad, I really don't care.
Yeah, I'm not a terrorist.
Yeah, I'm not doing anything, so I don't care.
Yeah, you're not a terrorist until you realize that the government continues to change what a terrorist definition is, right?
Right, right.
And so now a terrorist definition is if you're a parent that cares about your kid being taught.
woke ideology or transgenderism ideologies or whatever the case is, you know, critical race
theory, this and that. You are now considered a terrorist in the minds of the government.
Same thing as if you are a Trump supporter or you are, I guess what they would call far right,
or you're a Second Amendment supporter, or you're someone that wants to prep and get away from
the government. You're a libertarian. You're a terrorist now. So with that Patriot Act comes
into play, what that Patriot Act really allowed for the government to do was they wanted to classify
and group people into groups, threat levels, and et cetera, right?
And it wasn't just Muslims or ISIS or whoever was living within the United States.
This also included, I guarantee you, were people that maybe had anti-government cynicism.
They didn't love the government.
They didn't like big government.
They were people that, you know, maybe you would find that did not want to, what they would qualify as, you know,
pro-constitutionalists, which they would also consider terrorism now.
And they've used this Patriot Act for so long.
They still use it.
And they use it to classify people.
Now, why is classifying people a problem?
Well, we have to go back to Nazi Germany.
And remember when IBM, the company IBM, which is who makes computers and software and all this,
well, IBM actually went and, well, Nazi Germany, Hitler's regime, came to IBM and said,
hey, we need you to create us a system.
And this is really how IBM came about.
This is how they got so big.
Crazy enough.
But IBM came along and said, you know what?
We'll create you a system, but what kind of system you want?
Oh, we want a system to know who every single Jew is in this freaking country.
And so IBM's like, all right, well, we can probably figure out a way to do that.
And they actually had some type of punch card system, which is something that IBM created back in the day.
This was, in turn, allowed Nazi Germany to see and know who every single Jew was.
And why did they want to know that?
Because they wanted to go and either round them up or kill them.
And so when you talk about the Patriot Act and you talk about the state,
TikTok ban, and you're talking about why they want mass surveillance, why they want to know every
single thing that we do, well, guys, I mean, if you look back in history, history often repeats
itself. Yeah, exactly. And honestly, the more technologically advanced do we get, the further
in the future we go, we would think that we would have learned from our mistakes or learned
from history, which, you know, Nazi Germany was not our mistake. But unfortunately, when you
have a globalist dictatorship type government or just a globalist regime over the world,
they don't learn from past horrific events to make it better. They actually use those events,
it seems, to build upon, right? How can we make this better? How can we use technology to
identify every single person that might even think the least little bit out of way about what our
agenda is so that when and if we need to either take care of them, take them out, exterminate them,
mass incarcerate them, put them in camps, whatever the case is.
They have a very easy system to do this.
I mean, they could do this way easier now than Nazi Germany ever thought about.
Well, and even just thinking about systems in general, you think about all the people that are vaccinated with the COVID vaccination.
That's definitely, and I'm not sure if it was IBM, but it was something like that.
Well, they were wanting to do the vaccine passport.
Yeah, but you still got a card and everything you signed and all the paperwork.
that goes into a computer system so they know who's vaccinated, who's not.
Yeah.
So it's the same thing.
Yeah, IBM actually was the one that was going to create the company or the system, yeah.
Yeah, for the passport.
Yeah, isn't it interesting?
I mean, like, if people are like at all ever like conspiracy there is like, oh, well, IBM is going to create this vaccine passport, which I'm telling you is still going to happen.
It is just this, this last three years of pandemic and stuff, where we're not.
I'm not going to talk a ton about that because you get censored now.
Even Spotify, you get kind of blackballed.
That's what we're going to do on substack.
But yeah, when you start thinking about the system, well, the system IBM created for Nazi Germany,
well, damn, that's what they're trying to do with the vaccine passport.
And the pandemic is not over.
I have news for you.
That pandemic may be over, but a new one will take place to where it's going to be more deadly,
more contagious, more everything, to where they're going to try their very best to make it unavoidable,
to where you have to take a vaccine or you die.
That's what they really want.
And that's the scary part.
But anyways, let's move on.
Now, one of these people is one of our legislators in South Carolina, Lindsey Graham.
Now, I don't like Lindsey Graham, to be honest.
I do.
I don't.
I think he's a POS.
I think especially the way he talks about Russia, Ukraine, he wants to go in there and just take out Putin.
He basically wants to all-out nuclear war is what he pushes for.
This is what Lindsey Graham's dumbass pushes for.
He's all I love, let's just, we regime change in Russia.
We got a regime change in Russia.
We got to go in there and kill Putin.
He's an idiot.
Like, I mean, this is why older people like this that literally have no sense whatsoever should not be in power.
Now, with that said, at the very least, I want to play this clip from Jesse Waters to what he has to say about the TikTok fan and how this could be a Patriot Act for the digital age.
Let's listen to this clip real quick and then we'll be right back with you.
Maybe.
Well, until we're waiting.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry. Hold on, hold on, hold on, on.
Some answers out of the Senator Lindsey Graham, who supports this and is here and now.
You got to be kidding me, Senator.
Did you read this?
I knew he would support it, huh?
You don't support this because you were named as one of the supporters, because this is garbage.
Well, is this the one with John?
There's two bills out there.
One allows a review of.
businesses that are connected to China and give the Secretary the ability to protect our data.
Is that the Restrict Act?
We got S-686 right here, March 7th, and we got a bunch of Republicans supporting it,
because this thing is crazy town. You don't want the government looking into your private phone.
No, I don't.
If they have a hunch, you're colluding with the Russians.
We remember how that turned out.
Yeah, no.
Well, the Constitution trumps a statute.
So let me come back and, you know, give you a better explanation.
Here's the problem as I see it.
China is the parent company of TikTok, and my niece is like TikTok.
I don't mind them using TikTok.
I just don't want the Chinese government to seize all their data and manipulate the information
of America sees for political purposes.
China is helping drug cartels in Mexico.
China is not a friend.
Chinese espionage is an all-time high against American business interests.
So I want to push back against China, but within a constitutional framework.
You're right about that.
So you made these allegations, and I'll come answer better next time.
Well, I mean, because on Congress, I'll gov, you're listed as one of the co-sponsors of this thing.
Maybe it's like Federman when your chief of staff does all your work for you.
But, Senator, you've got to go back and talk to these other senators about this.
This thing is nuts, and it's going to get abused like it always does.
So we've got to clean this up.
Can we clean this up?
Well, yeah, I mean, number one, yeah, I owe you a better explanation I'm giving you.
John Thune's got a bill to make sure the Secretary of Commerce can deal with us, not just TikTok,
but the general idea that China, we're under attack by China.
Now, that's the fact.
Chinese Communist Party is stealing American data, espionage against American business.
is at all time. According to FBI, this number one challenge a face. China is providing drug precursors
to make fentanyl in Mexico that's killing Americans. So, yeah, I'm definitely going to push back against
China being able to steer your data, but I want to do it in a constitutionally sound manner.
So the problem is real with China, but the solution can be more damaging than the problem is sort of
what you're telling me. That's what you're telling me.
That's what you're telling me. On the United States, citizens.
Yeah, no, I understand what you're saying.
doing, all right? I totally get that. And constitutionally, we can't do all the things you just
said. So let me get back with you, but let me just end with this. Get back with me because you co-sponsored
it two days ago. Okay. All right. Yeah, see, makes me look bad. I don't know a better explanation.
All right. My bad, but I will say this about China. China is really a threat to America at multiple
levels. The fentanyl coming in for Mexico, they have a direct link to that. It's coming out of China.
I want to make Mexican drug cartels, foreign terrorist organizations. I want to protect. I want to
American data from Chinese manipulation by the Communist Party.
That's my intent.
And if this bill doesn't, if it goes beyond that, I'll come on your show and say, my bet.
All right.
Well, it goes way beyond that.
But we like the other bill you're behind about designating the terrorists out there in Mexico.
Yeah.
I like that.
All right.
Okay.
Okay.
But at least he admits that he's like, okay, well, maybe I don't know.
But, you know, you have a lot of people working under you.
And you don't know every bill you put into place in a lot of.
lot of bills, when there are bills, you know, if it has a main topic, there's like 30,000
things that go under it. So you don't really know all the time what you're going from because
they put all the little tiny writing, you know, below the main bill. And so they're going to
pass things that you don't really want them to pass. But at least he was honest and said,
hey, I'm going to go back and check this. Because all I'm looking for is to make sure that
China doesn't have our data or our things. But I want to do it so it's, so it's
constitutionally safe for us.
Yeah, I mean, my problem with what he said is just, how moronic can you sound, in my opinion?
I mean, regardless of this, like, you are co-sponsoring a bill to push through that you don't even
know what the hell is in it.
Yeah, he didn't read the fine print, I guess.
No, it doesn't matter.
Like, how does these politicians co-sponsor bills that are going to come down hard on American
citizens on behalf of China?
It does not make sense.
And listen, this is why when I say, like, I'm, I'm libertarian.
I'm not going to say I'm conservative.
I'm not going to say I'm Democrat ever.
Because there are dumbass Republicans as well.
And I've never really liked Lindsey Graham.
I'll be the first to say that.
There's been things he's done that's good.
But this whole thing is a bipartisan group of senators led by Senator Mark Warner.
He's a Democrat from Virginia.
And John Thune unveiled the Restrict Act on March 7th.
The legislation is meant to.
crack down on communications technology developed by foreign adversaries like China and Russia
because of national security risks.
The Restrict Act gives the executive branch the power to enforce any mitigation measure to address
any risk regarding a current past or potential future transaction with what is deemed to be a foreign
adversary.
It would also apply to take an action to address any risk arising from any covered transaction
by any person or with respect to any property subject to the jurisdiction in the United
States, including interfering in or authoring the result of reported result of federal election.
The penalty for running afoul of this law could be up to 20 years in prison.
Now, all that sounds strange, I don't break it down in just a second, but many of the bills
detractors suggest that it may be touted as they ban on TikTok, but it would actually have
far larger implications for civil liberties inside the United States.
Senator J.D. Vance, Republican of Ohio, wants to ban TikTok, but shop short of, stop short,
of supporting the Restrict Act, citing
in comparisons to the Patriot Act.
He said, I think we should ban TikTok.
I'm a little bit more concerned with the Restrict Act, he said.
According to Business Insider, noting that some people are very worried
that you are creating effectively a Patriot Act for the digital age.
Rand Paul, who blocked a different bill to ban TikTok,
introduced Senator Josh Hawley's Republican from Missouri on Wednesday,
also pointed to an article about the Restrict Act on Twitter
that warned the TikTok bill is a Trojan horse,
prepare for the Patriot Act.
Now, I actually want to play Rand Paul and Josh Hawley's exchange here because, listen, there's
one thing we know about Rand Paul is he is a badass mofo when it comes to finding the
truth and calling out the lies.
Now, you may not always agree with Rand Paul or whatever, but he is a doctor.
He has been, he knows the medical field.
He has been the main one that has come out in opposition, obviously, for.
for Dr. Falchie and others.
He has been probably the one that if Dr. Falci ever actually did get prosecuted,
it would be because of Rand Paul and his questioning in an under oath in front of Congress.
And he is one of those people that is going to be the guy I trust when it comes to saying anything about this.
Now, Rand Paul could easily come out and say, you know what?
Let's ban TikTok and let's use the restrict act.
but apparently he must have other people under him
smarter than
whatever to hell his name
Lindsey Graham's people
like I mean
do you not even know who your people are
that read this shit or do they even read it
like I mean that's the question
do your people under you read the bills
or not
probably not
I mean that's what's crazy they're just like
hey Republicans this is the ban and TikTok
act it's called the Restrict Act but don't worry about it
we're just banning TikTok sign this
let's get this through law
As soon as that shit's through all, it's even more totalitarian.
It's even more authoritarianism.
And he's like, well, but, you know, even if, you know, this went through, the constitutional,
or the constitution still upholds the rule of law.
But we've seen that that doesn't not necessarily, you would have to go to the Supreme
Court and make them make a tough decision based on something.
And I'm, even though the Supreme Court is, you know, pro-conservative, which is usually
more pro-freedom, that doesn't always work out.
Right.
And you should never give it in the hands of Supreme Court.
And I think you're right.
And Jesse Waters really put him in his place because, I mean, yeah.
All right.
Well, let's listen to Josh Hawley is one of these ones that are really behind this.
Your Strict Act.
And so this is what Rand Paul had to say to Josh Hawley.
Check it out.
Senator from Missouri.
Madam President, let me just finish with this,
that Senator from Kentucky
This is Josh Holly.
Collection of personal data
by American social media companies
and he's right to do that by the way.
I'm concerned about that too, no doubt.
But he pointed out that many American social media companies
collects all of this information
that they do it without the user's consent.
Sometimes they sell it to third parties for profit
and you can't necessarily opt out of it.
All fair enough.
But he is protecting exactly what he decries.
The difference is with TikTok,
that is going to a hostile foreign government.
It's not a market.
It's total control.
So I would just say this to Americans out there who are using TikTok.
Just know this.
We need to tell you the truth about this app.
Just know this.
If you have it on your phone, it is tracking your keystrokes.
It is tracking your movements.
It is tracking your location.
And it is sending that information, whether you want it sent or not.
to Beijing, to the Communist Chinese Party, where it can be accessed by anybody there who wants it under China's national security laws.
That is a threat to your personal security, and that is why we should act to ban it.
Let me just finally ask Senator from Kentucky. He and I talked about this before.
Would the Senator consider allowing us to set a roll call vote, an up or down roll call vote, not unanimous consent to pass, but it's to set a roll call vote at a time certain.
Would the Senator consent to that?
Madam President.
Senator from Kentucky.
Reserving the right to object.
Here's your end.
I'm unlikely to take First Amendment advice from someone who believes that the First Amendment doesn't protect the Communist Party.
You'll find no greater foe of communism, no greater critic.
I've been a long-standing critic of really the funding of research in Wuhan that led to the virus.
And yet I still want to protect the basic Bill of Rights, the First Amendment.
that protects his speech, whether we like it or not.
And if someone doesn't understand that communism actually is included under the First Amendment,
the terrible speech that we object to is included under that,
this is something we should be very wary of.
We should beware of people who peddle fear.
We should beware of people who peddle half-truths.
Almost everything that's been said about collecting data
is in all likely true, likelihood true, all the social media companies collect data.
They devise algorithms.
Some of the domestic ones have some of the domestic ones have,
psychological experiments that might horrify you to see what they've got all the young kids thinking and doing and trying to get them to click on different pictures or trying to get them.
This is a marketing strategy, and they all do it, and they all want to make money, and they all want to get clicks.
The difference is this. Many people on the right, in fact, some on the left, they are horrified by big tech in our country.
They're consistent in being horrified by the abuses of big tech here and also TikTok.
But look at their legislative proposals.
Many of them would actually ban big tech here as well,
or put it under the thumb of government,
or set up government agencies or panels to determine what speech would be acceptable.
And if you're not putting enough conservatives on there, by golly,
we're going to have a government commission that's going to determine what kind of content gets on there.
These are scary ideas.
Don't succumb to fear.
Don't give up our freedoms.
Don't say that, oh, my goodness, we're going to ban us.
150 million Americans.
This isn't just about the company.
This is about the rights of 150 million Americans to get their content.
You're restricting what they can do, and you're restricting what they can use.
All with innuendo.
Everything that's been said about, oh, this is a channel and a funnel to the government.
These are all, to the Chinese government, these are all conjecture.
These are all things they're saying happen.
As far as the sale of the company, I don't think we should force them to sell, but I do believe in a heartbeat they could be sold.
They're located in the Cayman Islands.
They're incorporated in the Cayman Islands, and they can be sold at any minute.
I don't think we should force them to sell.
The majority of the shareholders are not Chinese.
The two engineers that developed it are, but to say that the algorithm has to reside in China
and is in one tiny place and isn't anywhere else is a simplistic notion of the way technology works.
The company has bent over backwards to work with our government,
to try to set up something that would be reasonable,
including more government oversight.
So I, for one, will say that I will continue to defend the First Amendment
and those who believe that the First Amendment doesn't protect this speech
or in the wrong, and they'll find that out when the Supreme Court rules on this.
I object.
And there you go.
Wow, I love that guy.
He's so good because he really puts it into perspective.
And you don't really think about it.
Like, for example, going back to Lindsay, I do still like him.
But you're thinking about you're just trying to,
keep America safe, but we're overreaching by doing that, and we can't do that.
We simply cannot do that.
We have to protect freedom of speech no matter what.
And that goes with Facebook and any other platform we're on.
And that goes with anybody on these platforms.
You know, once you start banning people, we get into trouble.
Yeah.
Yeah, because then you say, well, it's this or it's for this reason or it's this reason.
But the bigger thing is there's a couple of things here.
Right about that. When you start banning people, you know, you open up a whole thing. Now, we already
know that our social media here in the United States bans its political opposition. We knew that
from Trump when they banned Trump. Right. This was a huge thing that Facebook and others did,
YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, you name it, Twitter. They completely all out banned a sitting
president or a, I think he was actually sitting president when they banned him. Yes. Twitter. Yeah.
And so there's no greater threat to freedom of speech than when these massive platforms where everyone gets their information, including where these people oftentimes are persuaded or come to the determination of who they want to vote for.
When you start having these big tech companies ban the opposition of that, in my opinion, that is in in 2023, that is as bad as arresting a political opponent.
because it's not even arresting.
It's as bad as killing a political opponent
because then they no longer have speech
or no longer have a way to get the message out to their people.
They have no platform.
And then you give the other side complete freedom
to do whatever they want.
We saw this with Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
These groups are able to organize
and able to really get their shit together
to where when they go to these cities,
they blow up these cities,
they burn down these places.
They're able to do that
because these social media companies
allowed them to really,
really organize and get everything tight-knit.
But yet anything on the opposite side of that,
they did not allow anything.
They banned groups.
They, groups like Mike Glover, which, by the way, I want to say this,
Mike Glover was not a Navy SEAL from the previous podcast.
He was a Green Beret, so he was Army.
But regardless, special forces nonetheless,
but his group, they determined, the government said,
was a terrorist organization.
All this group was, was a group that,
was like self-reliance. It was helping each other out in the event of natural disaster,
nuclear war. They teach people how to shoot, survive, and all these adapt. I mean, all these things
that people should know how to do. This is literally how we came in to be a civilization.
If the people before us would have never known how to do the things that Mike Glover's company,
for example, teaches people to do, we would have never made it to where we are right now.
But yet now, if you are to know the knowledge of our ancestors,
which brought us to where we are, that is illegal somehow, or that is a terrorist act, to know how to self-sustain.
Because why is it a threat that you know how to self-sustain?
Because government wants complete and utter control over every aspect of you.
And if you know how to survive or you know how to adapt or you know how to live without the government, you're a threat.
It's just like people that go and buy massive swast of land.
If you're just this, if you're a part of the right or a libertarian force or not forced, but a people,
and you go buy land, I'm telling you, you get put in a list.
And they're like, oh, these people are dangerous to the government because they don't agree necessarily with everything.
But what I want to say to this is that I think, and we'll get to the bill in a minute as far as like what it really means is like the Patriot Act.
And we talked a little bit about it a minute ago.
But here's what I think.
I think because TikTok is owned by a Chinese-backed company, the government of the United States, I think that's the government of the United States, I think that.
This is just a selfish thing on the government of the United States because they're like,
hmm, we want to control our people with TikTok and they have the information that they're not given us.
They're not giving us everything we want to know about our people.
And TikTok is the one of the most heavily used apps, period, right now.
And so the amount of data that the government of the United States wants against their own people,
they're not allowed to have because it's a China-backed company, and they are livid about that because
regardless of what the government of the United States want you as a citizen of the United States
to believe of how how the China is going to come after your data and going to come after your shit
and like what are they going to do?
Like is China going to come over here and then like, oh yeah, they're going to camp?
No, your government wants you to, they want to know who they're putting in camps.
And the fact that TikTok, that data is not shared with our very corrupt intelligence agencies in the
United States, they can't handle that shit. They want all of that information because, look,
we as people in United States, in my opinion, don't have to worry about China. In my opinion,
I've thought about this deeply. Why the hell do we got to worry about whether they have data
on us or not? Now, I understand. I get that, but not, I'm saying going further into like
companies or something. Yeah, okay, I get that. But yeah, if maybe, maybe you have a thing to where,
you know, no company phones can, can have TikTok, no government phones, obviously.
would be one of those things. Like if you are, if you are in any way, shape, or form in the government or even maybe military, potentially, maybe you ban TikTok on those devices or whatever, right?
But you can have them on your personal, though. Yes, or something like that, right? But just as far as, like, we got to ban TikTok because of China has the data. I think this is a, look, this is a, this is a conspiracy theory. But the reality is, because we don't know for sure. But we do know that, listen, it is, in my opinion, I think there's two.
things. I think, number one, they're using this as a way to get even more power and data over you
as a citizen. They want to use the TikTok thing to be able to spy on all your phones, your text
messages. I mean, if you actually go through this bill, and it can be broken down, I've read a lot
about it, this bill actually allows the surveillance of personal cell phones, even potentially
text messages through cell phone companies, to see, and this is how they word it. They say they want to
know on cell phones, whether or not if they ban TikTok, for example, that they, that someone may be
using a VPN, which is a virtual private network, which is something that you can use, like,
for example, if you don't want people to know, hide your location, your IP, all this stuff.
Well, this bill basically says that we want to know via people's telephones or TVs or any other
device, computer that you have, whether or not this person has a VPN on it, so that we know that
these, our citizens are not accessing TikTok.
Now, this is what they're saying in their bill, which is, okay, why does that sound bad?
Well, what that means is that they're going to be able to infiltrate every single device you have
legally with a new bill.
Right. In your home or anything.
Yeah, in your home, everywhere.
And what they're saying is the reason is they want to make sure that you're not accessing TikTok
if they ban it because if you are accessing it from a VPN, 20 years in prison.
but it's not even just that.
Holy crap.
But it's not even just that.
They,
regardless of the 20 years in prison thing,
they want to see everything you're doing.
I mean, you know,
it's the same thing with the IRS agents,
the 87,000 IRS agents.
They're doing that because of,
they're not going after the billionaires and the rich.
I mean, that's what this dumb-ass president Joe Biden
and his dumb-ass administration wants you to believe,
but they're idiots.
Like anyone that actually believes
that this Democratic,
or this Democrat administration is hiring 87,000 IRS agents to go after rich people is moronic.
They're not.
They're literally hiring 87,000 IRS agents because they want to go after all of you, no matter what.
They want to enslave you.
They want to make damn good insure that any money you make, they're getting every little bit of every little thing they have.
And if you don't give every little dime they want, you're going to go to prison or you're going to
be wrapped up in this federal system. You're going to be a product of a slave. You're going to be
a new age slave. And I still don't get why they're hiring these people and they say they're going to
arm them with weapons. That's scary in itself. Why would you arm IRS people with weapons,
employees that are coming after you? Well, it's because, you know, it's, look, I mean,
we now have a guy that is being, he's being, he's being,
prosecuted for a anti-Hillary meme back in whenever it was, 2016, I guess, and he's facing 10 years in prison because of a meme that he posts about Hillary Clinton.
Like if we've talked about, we've talked about like North Korea, for example, if you go to North Korea and say that you're a visitor or anybody, but say that any, like the government sees or knows or anything, that you were in a house and the Supreme Leader's pictures on the wall and you do not bow down and do all the shit.
you go to prison or get killed.
Right.
I mean, and now we're getting to the point in the United States where a meme creator about Hillary Clinton is facing 10 years in prison right now.
This, I mean, if you guys don't see how far we are going and how far we're going really fast, I don't know what else to say.
And guys, I don't know.
I all the time on this podcast say, what the hell can we do to make sure that 2024 in this United States, and that's not just a United States.
and it's not just the United States.
Wherever you're at,
how do we ensure that these asshole globalists don't get back in power?
I don't know.
I mean, I say yes, vote.
But I say we have to be vocal.
We have to stand out.
We have to make sure that, you know, one of the things is like I saw on the news yesterday,
Trump's about to get indicted.
Trump called for protest.
And to be quite honest, if I was Trump and I was getting indicted over bullshit,
I would be one of the very first to be like, yes, let's fucking protest, dude.
Well, he also uses too.
It's not just him getting indicted.
They're going after everyone politically involved.
Pro freedom.
This is a political move.
This is not something that they should be doing.
This is completely political.
And he says, you know, this is against us, not me.
Yeah.
And it's a pro-freedom indictment is what it is.
I mean, they cannot have a president.
It's against this agenda.
I don't get her.
And listen, I don't want to hear it if you guys don't.
like Trump, I don't care. The point is, is that this is an indictment against freedom.
This is an indictment against a president that, whether you agree or not, was given freedoms
to citizens. And that's like your eyes is just like, I can, I don't know. Oh, you can hear it.
Sorry. No, that's all good. But yeah, it's an indictment against the people that love freedom
and against the United States and all that. And that's what it is. And we're getting to a point now
where you're having people that are being persecuted.
I mean, January 6th, regardless of what you want to say about that,
January 6th thing, it was a protest that had instigators
that ensured and made sure that everyone that could possibly get into that capital building
was put into that capital building, almost like it was a tour.
There were violent people there, and I'm sure there were probably some people that were
violent that were not part of the government.
But I almost guarantee you that a lot of those January 6 people that were breaking windows, newness crazy shit, I mean, there's videos coming out still on Twitter and other places that said, hey, we're undercover.
We got to do what we got to do.
We got to, like, instigate this shit.
There's videos coming out about that.
And so they instigated this, and we've said before, they also instigate things like Black Lives Matter protests and Antifa stuff.
And they wanted to bring.
But the problem is those people don't get persecuted.
They don't get prosecuted.
They don't get put in prison for two years without any trial.
But the side of the people that they don't agree with or the political opposition, they do go to prison.
I mean, this is a totalitarian system.
And unfortunately, the people on the side of Antifa and Black Lives Matter and all this, they think that, oh, the government, like, we can do whatever to hell we want to and get away with it.
Eventually, that's not going to be the case.
Because eventually, once it is full totalitarian, your ass is just in line with everybody else.
That's right.
the government is full control.
They have used you to get to the power they need.
And once they do that, it doesn't matter because you ain't doing shit either.
But it's just so interesting getting back to this TikTok thing that, you know, on the surface or the, you know, outside layer, you're thinking, oh, the government's just trying to protect me against, you know, China.
China is this vicious country that's trying to come after Americans, which, you know, I do agree in a point.
But China is with Russia and blah, blah, blah.
And we're totally against them.
So our government is using this thing that China is no good.
They're not good people.
We don't want them to have your information.
But when you really go and you dive deeper, they're really not getting our information anyways.
And I don't even think they care about our information.
Unless it's like, I guess, government agencies or businesses that they can infiltrate or something like that.
Like just people basically like you and I, us people that are individuals on TikTok doing videos about, you know, Brian Colberger or, you know, anything, they don't really care about that.
And the government's making it sound like, oh yeah, they're going after you guys and we're trying to protect you.
But it's really not the case.
And we also have to, this is another thing I was thinking about when they talk about terrorists and banning certain people or certain things.
You know, you either are going to ban everything or nothing, right?
You have to, and to me, in order to keep freedom of speech, you can't really ban anything.
And it might be something that you don't agree with or something you don't like.
But it's still, you cannot ban their freedom of speech because of what they believe in.
Just because you don't believe in it doesn't mean that they should have a right to speak it.
And I'm even talking ISIS stuff.
Like, you know, I don't think ISIS should be banned.
as long as it's not against your law.
But yeah, if ISIS is saying we're going to kill Americans on this issue.
Well, yeah, but I'm just saying, like, a few years back, I think that people were saying ISIS were trying to get Americans on their side through social media.
You can ban them because they're not in America.
So they don't fall under the constitutional laws of freedom of speech as we do.
And by the way, there are so many laws about recruiting to a terrorist organization against the government.
I mean, that's obviously going to be not constitutionally protective speech.
I know what you're saying, though.
Yeah.
So what kind of things?
Right.
If you're racist, if you're racist, for example, black or white, if you're a black guy
that hates white people or white people that hate black, you should be able to say that,
really, under the freedom of speech, right?
I mean, it's bad.
And that's what I'm saying is there's going to be, if you're going to have real freedom
of speech, they're going to, you can't ban anything that just because you don't like it.
As long as it is within the law, yes, in the Constitution.
No, you cannot.
You shouldn't.
I mean, because that's the thing, but they are.
They're already encroaching on the freedom of speech.
And whether you agree with something, we can not agree with whatever, right?
I mean, I can have a platform and say, well, there's this group of people that hate our guts.
And as long as they lawfully say whatever they want to as far as within the law of the Constitution of the United States, I don't care.
You can say whatever you want to.
I can either talk back to you or talk shit, whatever.
or I can just ignore you or whatever the case is.
But that's the way that freedom of speech is.
That's the way it always has been.
But for example, there's a journalist right now
says that the Department of Justice is targeting him
for his aggressive post-January 6 commentary.
There's an independent journalist named Steve Baker says
he was recently warned that his aggressive reporting
and commentary about January 6 have created
growing ire at the U.S. Department of Justice
that could lead to his prosecution
for being at the Capitol on that faithful Wednesday in 2021.
Since January 6, Baker of Raleigh, North Carolina,
went through two hours of FBI questioning
and faced looming specter of being added to the list
of now more than 1,000 January 6 criminal case defendants.
He said his recent coverage on January 6 cases
and pointed criticisms of the DOJ have once again painted a target on him.
He said, in quote,
I got a call from another journalist who has a friendly source
inside the Department of Justice, they're in D.C.
Baker told the EBOC Times.
He called me up and said, this is a paraphrase, but he said,
your friend in Raleigh tell him to be careful.
He has awakened a couple of people's attention to his work, and they're not happy about it at all.
The ominous early morning heads up got Baker's attention.
Quote, first of all, when you get a call at 6.30 in the morning from somebody relaying the message
that must have thought that was really important to get a hold of me, he said.
So the impact of the timing of the delivery was significant.
The journalist who gave me the information has a very large national audience and would be the kind of person who would have those type of sources, Baker said.
So I had to take it seriously.
The Eapok Times asked the U.S. Department of Justice for comment on Baker's contention but did not receive a response.
Now, I do want to play this Tucker Carlson thing.
Hopefully it does not have an ad, but this is about this because this all has to do with the, they're coming after everybody.
If you speak the truth, if you're a journalist, if you're any of this, they're going to come after you in a big way.
And it worries us.
That's why we're going to substack.
That's why we're trying to get as many of you to substack and investigate Earth with Chad and Sherry over there as we possibly can, guys.
Because I'm telling you, we have to set up a camp.
And we've got to set a camp in a censorship-free place.
Think about this.
Think about you're in the wildlands of Africa, right?
And you can, there's lions, which are lions are this government, right?
and you're walking out there,
but you can go to this area
to where it has a wall around it, right?
Well, do you want to stay out there
with the government
that you could eat by these damn
badass lions,
or do you want to go inside the walls
of this camp, which is substack?
So that's why you need to go there.
Yeah, you need a border.
Yeah, build the wall
around ourselves,
F, the government.
All right.
Baker is one of the people
who fears he may soon be targeted
in this unconstitutional
China-style purge from DOJ,
He's an independent investigative journalist.
He joins us tonight.
Steve, thank you so much for coming on.
Some up, if you will, why you're worried about being caught up in this purge.
Thanks for having me, Tucker.
Well, my January 6th story started on January 6th.
I was one of those independent journalists who was there that day to cover the story.
And, of course, the story developed in a way that none of us anticipated.
I showed up with my camera, my tripod, and a man on the street microphone
intending to interview people about their thoughts about what happened to speeches there at the ellipse.
Well, of course, the story developed at the Capitol, and I was there, and I covered and caught hours' worth of video myself.
And then I also went inside the Capitol building because that's where the story went.
I did no violence. I did no chanting. I did no parading or any property damage.
but because my video and because of my subsequent stories have been used by news services all over the world,
my videos have been in the HBO documentary, New York Times documentary, and others.
And so as a result of that, I was eventually, I believe, targeted, not because I was there as a journalist,
but because that my story did not comport with the approved narrative.
In fact, my initial foray into the weaponization of the DOJ against me was the FBI contacting me some eight months later.
And then right around Thanksgiving of 2021, I was told that I would be charged within the week.
That's what they told my attorney.
And then that never happened.
Fifteen months later, here I still wait, wondering if those red dots are going to come through my bedroom window.
o'clock in the morning.
It's living in limbo, life-destroying, shocking.
I apologize on behalf of the country.
Very quickly, Mr. Baker, there were a lot of journalists, liberal journalists, in the capital
that day.
I think Nancy Pelosi's daughter, Alexandra, and I apologize if I'm wrong, but I think she was
there doing a documentary as well.
But certainly all the big papers had journalists there.
Do you know that any of them have been harassed by Biden's FBI?
I am actually familiar with hundreds of journalists, both,
professional MSM journalists as well as quite a large
cadre of independence. To my knowledge,
none of the more left-leaning independent journalists have
faced prosecution, whereas there have been quite a few
of the more right-leaning independents who have actually been
charged and convicted of crimes, even jailed.
Yep. And it actually leads me to Alex Jones.
Alex Jones had Owen Troyer, and Alice Jones was there
self and actually Alex was saying do not go in the Capitol. It's a, it's a trap, whatever.
Right. But yeah, he's right. All these right-leaning or even libertarian, uh, anti-government
journal or any of this stuff. Many of them have either been charged. I know Owen Sawyer for
Alex Jones and Info Wars has officially been charged, I believe. Um, there are so many of those that
if you're a journalist on the wrong side, because of the fact they don't have control over your
narrative of how you're going to show the story, which is in real time, they cannot deal with
that. Obviously, the left-leaning media, they're controlled by government. They're controlled by
the globalist media, the deep state media. So they don't have worry about them because they know
they're already in control of their story anyway. But he just said Nancy Pelosi's daughter was
doing a documentary and it sounds like she was inside the Capitol as well. Well, no, there is a video
of Nancy Pelosi's daughter and there was a hidden camera when she was in this little office area, when she
was talking to someone else and whoever just was a cordon like in their pocket or something.
And Nancy Blosy's own daughter was like, they're trying to like make this like some big
insurrection.
That's ridiculous.
Like, I mean, this is on video.
You can find the video of Nancy Blosy's daughter, which they really tried to hide, but you can find
on Twitter.
She's like, this is ridiculous.
Yeah, but I guarantee even though she's on the side of the people that came in, I guarantee
she's never going to be arrested for anything.
No, I don't think, no.
But the thing is Nancy Pelosi's daughter, I don't necessarily think was on the side of the
people coming in. I think she was candidly talking to one of her friends about like, this is
ridiculous. And I even think she even talked about as a big setup, if I'm not mistaken. But there's
so many officer, you know, body cam videos that when they're talking with each other, talking
about how it's a setup. They've been set up. Even, especially the Metro Police for DC, didn't
have a clue what the hell was going on. But as they went on throughout the day, they realized that
their commands and all this stuff that they were being given. And then you can see them on camera
saying we got set the F up.
Like this is, you know, and they knew.
They knew something bigger was going on.
And these are stories that were, I don't know, hopefully we'll hear eventually.
But guys, to the January 6th thing and then to the election thing are probably our next big, I don't know.
Like, it's probably won't be a fireside chat, but we've talked about it before.
But on our substack, we are going to, and we've got to figure out exactly how to do this.
I mean, it wouldn't be that hard, but we want to have a video type episode where you guys can listen as well.
You don't have to watch the video necessarily.
But we want to go through 2000 Mules documentary about the election and the 2016 thing.
We have to do it on Substack.
It will be a paid member episode.
But we want to go through it.
We want to break it down.
We want to talk about it.
We want to talk about it uncensored uncannily to where if we talked about it like that on here, even Spotify probably would be
band or we at least be censored it wouldn't get out i already see like a lot of like a lot of our
episodes now certain things we talk about are not getting the reach that we used to um you know
it's starting to happen i believe with spotify as far as trying to get uh a band going or or
censorship or blacklisting or whatever i think they're getting infiltrated but i think Spotify is
trying their best no they are yeah yeah they're doing a great job they have but they have a lot
pressure on them too as well.
100%.
And I just don't think companies
like that will...
I mean, the bigger the company is,
the harder it's going to be for them to survive
because the government is going to force
their hand eventually.
And right now, we don't know
right now what's going on. I would think their government
is probably not heavily involved with Spotify, but
it's probably more involved than we know.
I think they're really pushing places like
this right now. I guarantee there's talks,
there's conversations, there's lawyers,
there's everything involved with this shit.
and guys that's why I implore you
if you care about freedom of speech
or if you ever care about listening to us again
it could be any day that we get censored
is it could be any day we get banned
and then you're never going to know where we are
please go to our substack
I mean it's just an app
download the freaking app
there's a lot of you and look I'm one of those people
I don't like download apps but it's so easy
go to your app store download the app
type in Investiguerreitha chat and cherry
hit subscribe you don't have to do anything else
then you have and make sure you put the email you check
Right. And also make sure you enable notifications or substack, right? Because if you're only
subscribed to us, it doesn't matter. We don't post 24-7. It's not going to be like crazy
freaking notifications all the time. We're not going to drive you crazy. No. And some of those people
on there, they post like eight times a day. And I'm like, holy shit.
Oh, my God, I got to unsubscribe. Yeah, we post like once a day or once every two days, right?
But it's very good content. I work my ass off on it. And, and Sherry and our podcast.
And it's also, we're going to have fun there, too.
It's not just going to be all serious.
You're going to get to know us more.
I think our first podcast episode was really good because we told a story about my life.
Then we went on to something serious.
We're going to tell a story about your life next.
Then we're going to go on something serious.
And then we're going to have fireside chats.
We're going to have so much cool shit.
But more so than that, you guys just need to go and support us there.
We can make a difference.
We can make a change.
We can make a movement that we can beat the censorship.
We can beat the tyrannical dictatorship, globalist governments.
whether you're in the United States or Canada or wherever, we can beat this.
And we have to do it through going to other avenues and other platforms that allow freedom of speech.
We cannot, we have to.
There's no other way to do that.
And I'm one of those people like Rumble.
I'll be honest, we have some Rumble stuff over there.
And I want to use Rumble more in the future.
I do.
Rumble's platform is just, to me, I don't love the platform right now.
It's not like a YouTube.
It's not as easy as YouTube.
It's kind of weird with some of their stuff.
Like, I wish I could go there for, like, two days and be like, dude, do you guys not get why YouTube is so good and why you guys are not quite there yet?
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
No, but the algorithm and just, like, the algorithm there sucks.
And just even the player is not as good.
And it just, it does weird, clunky stuff.
And I know that's a really good place for people.
If you want to go find real cool stuff or, you know, uncensored stuff, yes, is a great place.
I think substacks platform is way better.
I mean, I think as far as algorithm-wise, how it presents itself and the platform,
and all that stuff, it's amazing.
And guys, we're not sponsored by substack or anything.
We're sponsored by anyone that listens to our podcast.
I mean, you guys are it.
Yeah, you guys are our sponsors.
Yeah, so, but our sponsorship is our voice.
And, like, we have to continue to get this message out.
We have to continue.
And by the way, I'm really working hard on substack on the articles and the things we're
doing over there.
And I hope that when you listen to something on our substack, that you, like, for example,
the World War III thing, the Russia, we provide a whole history.
and why this war could be happening.
I want you to take that article and share it with someone that you don't,
share it with someone that doesn't know shit about Substack
or doesn't know anything about anything.
And he's like, hey, you know about the Russia-Ukraine thing?
Well, here's a thing.
Just listen to this, because this might tell you,
this might explain something that you don't know about what's going on.
And I think I did a pretty good job with that last one.
Yeah, Chad's really good at that, by the way.
Well, I'm trying.
You really are.
And I told him, I said, I'm going to write my own article, and I'm doing it too.
No, do it.
I mean, seriously, do it.
I mean, I know you don't necessarily always have as much time as I do that.
No.
But, yeah, I mean, it's important.
I mean, and it's not always easy to talk about it as much as I can really write everything out
and then just do a voiceover for those of you don't want to read because those are long articles.
Right.
But you can just click play and you can listen to it.
And that's free.
And it's very entertaining and you get a lot of information with it.
Yeah, and it's like a 12 minute or, well, it's actually.
Nine minutes.
Nine minutes, but it's 13 minutes.
I don't know what I did there.
But so, yeah, it's nine minutes.
You listen to it for nine minutes.
You're fully caught up in a lot of the stuff.
Like, for example, the 2014 coup of Ukraine, when they basically got rid of Russia's president.
Or sorry, Ukraine's president.
It was pro-Russian.
I explain all that.
And then how it also leads into why the Russian Ukraine thing might actually be happening
and what the involvement of the United States is.
Guys, just go listen to it.
Go check it out.
We are going to be heading to the beach.
We should already be at the beach, but we've been sick.
We finally are starting to feel a little better.
We got our upstairs clean today.
I'm going to try to clean downstairs.
It's been hell, though.
So we can just go on vacation.
But it's, yeah, it's really, we've had a lingering sickness that will not go away.
Which we actually had to cancel with our podcast guests, which you'll know.
I think we were scheduled that for April 14th, 15th.
So, because, I mean, I couldn't talk.
I mean, my voice was going out like the past few days.
Failed like crap.
Well, no, just even to go out to dinner, we feel like, oh, my God, I'm so tired.
I got to go home.
I feel like crap.
We have no energy at all.
No, but we're getting better.
Chad gave it to me, by the way.
And then I've since given it to other people.
Some of our friends are also sick now.
So sorry about that, guys.
All right.
Well, we're going to end it here.
Go subscribe to our substack if you haven't already heard that in this podcast episode.
Yeah.
One more time.
substack.
Yeah, guys, it'll be good.
It'll be good for your soul.
And listen, while we're in Hilton Head, South Carolina, if any of you, by the way, are
in Hilton Head this next week, let us know.
Reach out to us or near there.
We'll meet up.
So just let us know.
This is Love and Calibur, The Light, and we're going to end it with this.
Guys, until next time, we love you.
Peace out.
Peace out.
Ever a look.
I'm so sick of waiting a light.
I just want to see the thought.
