All right, Jeffrey, here we are podcast styles. Kind of interesting having the microphone here, a little bit different, doing this in the podcast form. But you've been watching these hearings, too. We were both inside the hearing yesterday. What were your thoughts? I think Robert Kennedy Jr. showed eloquence, poise, given the situation he was in. And I think he, like he ran on his ticket for president, he took opportunities for low-level conversations and tried to up-level them. for the betterment of really the American people.

So I thought that was really great. And the other thing I saw was the mudslingers. We all knew what we were talking about. We saw them in the clip there. The people that were basically trying to make a point using appeals to fear, appeals to authority. They were doing this with basically to get sound bites, but they had little substance behind their talking points.

I talked to parents who were there. I talked to parents who were also not there watching it on TV. And they also did the same thing. They're sick of it. And it seems like a spell has been. broken. It seems like that paradigm, that old paradigm of these attacking talking points with little substance. People want depth. People want change. And it was really something because not one person said, you know what, that Elizabeth Warren, that Bernie Sanders has a really great point there.

I didn't hear anything. I heard people actually wanting to turn off the TV or walk out of the hearing because they didn't want to see it. But I thought it was interesting because you heard some of the senators, you need to recant. You know, a lot of people say the vaccine safety space when it comes to the mainstream established medical community is almost like a religion. And they were, it sounded like the crusades. You need to recant from what you said before. Before you enter our order, you need to, you need to bow down on the knee and recant and say, you were sorry for what you said against our religious pact. Yes, wild. Yeah. Yeah. Really. Yeah. Yeah. I'm holding the evidence right here and tell me this evidence is, I mean, it was like, I'd like to see it. I'm not sure what

you're referencing. Right. It was really outside of reason. There's no way to sort of, we are in one space. And many of them saying, I'm with you on food. I'm with you on chemicals. I'm with you on this. But when it comes to vaccines, well, why? Right. Right. Why would that be any different? Yeah. Why would that be any different? If they've lied to the same companies are poisoning our food, poison our water, you're, you're met to all that, you know, all of these things, even, you know, too many drugs. that the system's broken, but when it comes to this one issue, I need you to take back everything you've ever said. You're right about the rest of it. And we're finally admitting that. Like, we didn't admit it for the last 20 years. We fought you on that too, but we'll give you

all of that ground except on this one issue, take it back. And retrospective and prospective, so take it back. And when you go in there, promise you won't ever say any bad things against it. And you'll never ask to do testing any more than we already are. And you're like, wow, this is... It was a really big window into that mindset. But I think one of the final things I don't even talk to Jeffrey Tucker, brilliant mind on this, and go through some of the clips. What I thought was interesting was we have Senator Elizabeth Warren, and she questioned him about his work as an activist lawyer. Clearly before he was working with the environment, then he worked to get justice and compensation for vaccine injured children and adults. And Elizabeth Warren is saying, you promise me you won't do this anymore.

She's sitting from a privileged position where the government she represents has been sitting on a broken system. they refuse to correct. He was one activist lawyer from the outside trying to work to get justice for these people. And she's saying, don't you do that? Basically saying this system is fine the way it is if you read between the lines. And I think the countermeasures injury compensation program, the CICP, these things need to be looked at. They're broken people that have not had compensation. And this is an American tragedy. And Warren seems to have forgotten about that. Yeah, it's really amazing. And you think about all the work that she's done going after credit card injuries, she's banking, and all the all of whom have lobbies that are you know buying the politicians around her she recognizes how hard it is to get real honest you know discussions around the issues she cares about i'm sure she would argue that anyway but one that you think you understand i mean it's just and you're right like you know as he said you're asking me to stop suing drug companies why right you know and and so um that's super super interesting and you know we have we're days away from finding out with it there are our own opinions we're going to i'm going to share some today but

But they're just our opinions. In the end, there's going to be a vote that's going to decide whether or not Robert Kennedy Jr. actually did deliver what was necessary to achieve this position. Yeah, and money is a big thing. HHS is going to have a budget of larger than a lot of countries. And so you're talking a lot of power there. And the medical system also wields power. He says something brilliant when you think will echo through time really when he says someone that is healthy, has a thousand dreams, someone that is sick, has only one. obviously to get better. And so when people are sick, they're into this now sick care system,

this broken system that everyone was talking about with chronic health leading the way. And we have really no way to get out of that if someone gets in there. They're controlled by a system that they never really wanted to be in in in the first place that is not essentially helping.
