Starting point is 00:00:05 Have you noticed that this show doesn't have any commercials? I'm not selling you diapers or vitamins or smoothies or gasoline. That's because I don't want any corporate sponsors telling me what I can investigate or what I can say. Instead, you are our sponsors. This is a production by our nonprofit, the Informed Consent Action Network. So if you want more investigations, if you want landmark legal wins, If you want hard-hitting news, if you want the truth, go to I Can Decide.org and donate now. All right, everyone, we ready?
Starting point is 00:00:43 Yeah. Action. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Wherever you are out there in the world, it's time to step out onto the high wire. You know, I guess the law of physics is, you know, for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. And Jeffrey Jackson, I've been talking about this, that as we have.
Starting point is 00:01:18 find ourselves gaining more ground and winning more battles. We have to expect that there's some pushback. And every once in a while, the deep state's going to, you know, have an achievement. They're going to win some battles of their own, if you will. And one of them that really seems to be present and accounted for is this battle right here. It's real ID go time. Real ID. It is finally due to go into effect. Big change at airports right now at the security line. A regular old ID. and license that just won't get you on flight.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Starting May 7th, Geo, if you're flying anywhere in the U.S., out of the U.S. airport, you will need to show TSA agents a real ID, but only 56% of driver's license were real IDs in circulation across this country, 56%. The last minute's grappled to get a real ID has led to long lines and scarce appointments at DMVs nationwide. It seems like you've been hearing about real ID for decades. because you have. The deadline to get one has been pushed back so many times, but no more. A real ID is just a more secure form of ID that came out of the 2005 Real ID Act post 9-11.
Starting point is 00:02:28 It's just basically stating that we needed another layer of verification for everybody that's, again, boarding a flight or heading into a federal building. The TSA acknowledges us, yeah, a lot of the country, despite 20 years since they passed the law, a lot of the country isn't ready. Well, to try to get to the bottom of this story, which we're all involved with right now, I'm being joined by Twyla Brays, who is the CEO and founder of Citizens Council for Health Freedom. Twyla, thanks for joining us.
Starting point is 00:02:56 It's great to be here. Thank you, Del. Excellent. I want to be really honest and transparent, as I always am on this show with my audience. I have a real ID. Once I moved to Texas back in 2019, when we brought the show from California, when I left, California came to Texas. I was told I wouldn't be able to get car insurance and all of those.
Starting point is 00:03:17 things and this is just one of those fights that as I'm traveling the country I gave up on. And so I know a lot of people like, oh, don't, fights back. He's a hero. On this one, I've already, you know, given up the ghost. So Twyla, tell me, what, did I have an option here in Texas? Have I messed up and how screwed are we? Well, you know, I would say in Texas, you don't have an option at the moment. Yeah. But you should actually, in anybody in Texas and the five states that don't give any the option of anything other than a real ID, you should make some noise because this is really
Starting point is 00:03:54 serious. This is a national ID. So I feel like your audience doesn't know actually what a real ID is. They probably think it's just a state driver's license with the star. And so that is really not at all what it is. Well, tell us what it is. That's why. That's what I'm hoping you can help me understand. I mean, it seems bad. You know, we've been reporting on it years ago. It's your medical records, your whole life, it's a tracking system, all that. But what really is it, Twyla? So real ID is a national ID, and it's not just a card, it's a system. And so it's a federal takeover of state and individual sovereignty. Legislators have said back, back when it originally happened, they said it's a usurpation of state's rights. And it's a usurpation of individual rights
Starting point is 00:04:42 under the Constitution. So it's completely unconstitutional. It is a national system, not a card. It doesn't matter that it just looks like your card with a star. This is part of an entire system. And the way that you know that this is part of a system is simply even to look at the law. So what the law says is that there are three official purposes. And that's nuclear facilities, access to federal buildings, and access to commercial flight. But then it has these words. It says, and any other purposes that the Secretary of Homeland Security shall determine. And so the sky is wide open as to what it could be. That could include medical care.
Starting point is 00:05:23 That could include getting a gun, getting ammunition, getting married, renting a hotel room, renting a car, whatever it is that the Secretary of Homeland Security in this administration or in the next would decide that we need a real ID for. But it goes further than that. So in other words, this is just about flight, right? This is about life, your entire life. But it goes further than that because it requires biometrics. And so initially it requires a facial scan, which is different than just a regular picture.
Starting point is 00:05:56 But it says in the rule that it can be all sorts of biometrics. And, you know, that could be your palm. That could be your fingerprint. That could even be your digitized DNA. And then finally, to just let you see how big this system is, in December of 2023, the organization that is the head of all the DMVs around the country testified to Congress in testimony called Beyond Real ID. They said that they are going to digitize the real ID, put it on our phones, and have remote real-time access to it. And so really what we're talking about here is that they're building the framework for a American version of a social credit system.
Starting point is 00:06:41 This is, you might say that they're building essentially a digital biometric control system controlled by the federal government. Wow. You know, I was just having a conversation with a good friend of mine from here in Texas, a real Texan who just went to China and he was telling me, he's like, it's amazing. I mean, kids can walk down the city streets, they can go to school on their own, there is no crime, everything's beautiful and clean. And I said, well, I guess that's one of the, you know, side effects of a lot of the side effects
Starting point is 00:07:10 of authoritarianism, and we laughed. But that really is this dream, right? A place where you can be arrested for spitting on the sidewalk. You know, all of a sudden you have, you know, no creative expression. You know, certainly what America's founded on is moving out the door. As we recognize, as you're pointing out, you're losing your sovereignty and you're losing the state's rights. I want to talk about that.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Just give you a little bit more of a sense of that because that's something that, as I've said it on the show so many times, I'm politically marooned. because, you know, I thought as a Democrat and a liberal, we believed in freedom. But more and more, I see that, you know, this authoritarianism coming in. And it's made me really think about what my libertarian friends were talking about is you want your government as close to you as possible. You want the state to be more powerful than the federal government. You want the county to be more powerful than the state and you want the city to be more powerful than the county. At least, you know, I'm sort of, I'm sure overly generalizing.
Starting point is 00:08:06 But the idea being that the closer to you, the powerful government is you can change, you know, someone representing your city with far fewer votes. And then obviously the state, but the hardest person to change is the federal government because now you have to get everyone in the country to agree. And that's why we want that power closer. So when you say that they're taking away, you know, state sovereignty and ceding power to the federal government, why is that important when it comes to this ID? and why wasn't there more pushback, especially by states like Texas, where you would assume this is the state that they always said would like secede from the union should things get too oppressive? That's correct. So state sovereignty, and so really states created the federal government, and they did it very gingerly, right? They didn't even, they couldn't decide for a long time exactly how to do it or should they do it or should they not, because they wanted the states to
Starting point is 00:09:04 have the power, so they created the 10th Amendment. And that means that the states aren't allowed to do anything except what they're limited to do according to the Constitution. And by, federalizing the state driver's license, which is exactly what those 116 Pennsylvania legislators told Trump in a letter in 2017, by federalizing the driver's license, then we no longer have, as a people, we do not have our 50 states able to protect us against an overreaching federal government. And this is an overreaching federal government. And that's why it's very exciting to see the states that have figured this out now. I mean, you know, it was 30 states back in 2007 and to 2009.
Starting point is 00:09:50 We actually have a timeline of all of the things that have happened in Real ID, which you can find at refuse real ID.org, yeah, that's it. And so it just shows you that back when this started, there were about 30 states that wrote laws prohibiting conformance with the Real ID, because they saw that this was unconstitutional, completely unconstitutional.
Starting point is 00:10:12 And other ones wrote, they wrote against They wrote against it in, oh, I can't remember what those are called. Anyway, resolutions against it. And so they were powerful back then. But when Obama came in 2015 and he said, you can't fly in 2016 if you don't have a real ID. And that's the first time that the national media fan the flames of fear across the country. And they started calling into their state legislators and legislators wanted to get elected and they didn't know what was happening. and they just started to bow.
Starting point is 00:10:47 And over about the next two or three years, they did. And so now 100% of the states have conformed their state laws to real ID. But many of those state laws, 45 of them, allow you to have a standard state driver's license. But as you said, in Texas, Texas is one of the five states and they're all Republican states. Texas is one of the five states that do not allow you to have anything but a real ID. And that's why anyone who is in those states should start making some noise. Tell your state legislators, in eight states around the country, we have at least four states who have actual legislation trying to undo this to extract themselves from real ID.
Starting point is 00:11:30 What states are those? What states are pushing back that hard? Well, I know that you've got a map there, but it's Michigan and it's Minnesota. You got the map there? Okay, yeah. Michigan, is it Maine, Minnesota, Oklahoma? Is that who we're talking about the yellow? Yes, and actually we, yeah. Yeah, and actually I just learned from our policy director that it's also Pennsylvania. Wow. And then there's some other states that are talking about it.
Starting point is 00:11:53 And so everyone needs to encourage their state legislature to get them out of real ID. And nobody should buy the argument. So there are two arguments, two arguments that we hear. One of them is this is going to help with illegals. Well, it's not, it's not going to help with illegals any more than a state driver's license in Minnesota or California. keep illegals from having a driver's license, right? Those are states that have decided to give this. If you had, you know, a very leftist or Marxist president and administration in the next administration,
Starting point is 00:12:25 then what you could expect is that they would simply give real IDs to these folks. The other thing that I hear is passports. Well, isn't this just a passport? No, it's not just a passport. Because a passport is an external, it's an external passport, right? It's to get you out of the country and into the country. That's all it's for. And what they're creating here is an internal passport that you won't be able to buy or sell or, you know, maybe go to concerts or wherever it is that you have to show an ID.
Starting point is 00:12:56 If you don't have the real ID eventually, you probably won't be able to do anything. And like I said, they'll be able to know everywhere you are, everything you're purchasing, and they'll be able to control it. One of the things I say all the time, I always try to make authoritarianism as difficult and uncomfortable as possible. I'm all about resisting. I never go through the airport scanner, like where they want to scan your face. I won't stand in the little x-ray scanner, even though I think they're purposely trying to make me miss my flight now when I opt out, making it 30 minutes before I can get through. But is it trivial? I mean, am I just wasting my time?
Starting point is 00:13:33 I just feel like ultimately they'll ask me sometimes every once in a while the TSA agent will say, I don't understand why are you opting out of the facial recognition. We erase it as soon as it's done. It's like, I'm just trying to protect your job. And I've already seen airports where they have one agent and like four of those things. So they can move four people through where it used to be four jobs. Now it's just one. But really this whole facial tracking system is that, are these things connected in any way?
Starting point is 00:13:59 Yeah, they are connected because the first thing, like I said, for real, ID is actually a facial scan. I think they're trying to desensitize the American public, but they're also training their systems, right? So I just saw a banner, one of those big, tall, you know, seven foot banners from Delta. And it said, one look and you're on, you know, they're meant to make you think this is just convenient for you and this is just very easy. But they're training you to be compliant. And like I like to say about biometrics is that they have claimed a right to collect and catalog the coordinates of your body for their control of your life. And that's what this is, and that's how people should look at it. The biometrics, there are companies, very big companies
Starting point is 00:14:43 who are making a lot of money through taxpayer money to build these systems, to build these systems through TSA. We should not, we should not, you know, we should not submit to this in any way, shape or form. And the thing is, you know, there is a tiny little sign in the airport that says you can opt out. There are also bigger signs that the fifth or sixth paragraph finally tells you that you can opt out. And one of the signs talking about the cameras that are now in front of the jetway, so not just at the checkpoint, but at the jetway, right? They say that this image is submitted to customs and border control. So it's submitted, right? It's not just a little. It's not just And then they say, but you can opt out if you want.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Everybody should be opting out all the time. Okay. What would you recommend for people that are in states? They don't have their real ID yet. What is your advice to them? What should they do? So two things. One, if they have their real ID and one if they don't have their real ID.
Starting point is 00:15:45 If they don't have a real ID, then they should never get one, ever. And if they are afraid about flying, they should go get a passport or a passport card. There are actually 16 different identification cards that are allowed by the TSA, and you can just look up acceptable identification TSA, and you will find them all. You can also go to refuse real ID.org, and we have a link to those 16 different identifications. Get yourself a passport, get yourself a passport card at the very same time. Refuse the real ID at all costs because they are setting up the system, the biometric, digital, control system, essentially bars, prison bars for all of us, and this net is closing, and we must stop them from doing it. So that's the most important thing that you can do. You should tell your
Starting point is 00:16:35 state legislators and your members of Congress. So I have been in Washington, D.C., and they're like, oh, I mean, three months ago, they said, we're not hearing from anybody. I said, we're going to change that. We're going to change that because it's all about freedom. We will not have freedom if we have a national ID card that can track us everywhere and control what we can and cannot do and so you need to talk to your state legislators you need to talk to members of congress and if you go to refuse real id.org we also have just a place you can click on and just send some automatic automated messages to your members of congress and please use social media this is one of the best things share our documents on social media we have and i think that was
Starting point is 00:17:17 being showed there at refuse real id.org here's seven reasons to repeal but there's also the a switch. So we have instructions to help you if you have a real ID to get out of the real ID. Now unfortunately, I just heard from somebody in Indiana. Yeah, that's the one right there. Yeah. I just heard from somebody in Indiana who went to the DMV and they were told, well, yes, if you never had a real ID before, we'd let you have a standard driver's license. But now that you have one, we won't let you. So that, I don't believe they have any legal reason or rationale for that. But this is the DMVs going rogue, trying to push everybody into the real ID. All right, Twyla, thank you so much for your incredible work.
Starting point is 00:18:02 I know you're in Washington, D.C., putting your money where your mouth is, as they say, and meeting with your representatives right now and our national representatives to get to the bottom of this. Everybody get involved. You know, go to refuse the real ID.org right now. Share this information. Reach out to your representatives. This is that moment. This is what really essentially the Maha movement is about, right? Getting involved. We are involved. The government is listening to us. We want to show pushback. We want their phones ringing off the hook. That's how you make a difference. That's what makes change. Not because you elected some official that's going to go in and do this job for you. You have the voice. You have the power. Twilett. Thank you so much for this incredible information. We have a very active audience. I know that they're going to get involved today and start pushing and backing you up in the work you're doing. you for doing it. Thank you so much, too. And get over here to Texas. Help me go and knock down the
Starting point is 00:18:56 walls here, the state capitol. We'll do. Okay. Take care. Thank you. Talk you soon. All right. Well, we have a huge, great show coming up today. This evening here in Austin, Texas, is going to be sort of the special screening of Follow the Silenced, which of course is the documentary about those that have been injured by the COVID vaccine. Later on in the show, I'm going to have some of the featured people that are at the center of that film and this discussion. This is obviously something that the high wire has always been dedicated to from the very beginning. We were talking about vaccine injury when we were representing the children. And of course, I made the documentary Vaxed. We've talked about autism. We talked about all these issues. Now we have a government
Starting point is 00:19:40 that seems to be listening, but we are not going to drop the ball. The COVID vaccine is horrific. It continues to destroy lives. We're going to get into the details around that. And those, whose lives have been affected. Let's let their voice be heard across the world so that this atrocity ends immediately. I'm also going to be making a statement at the end of the show about some of the things going on with Maha that you won't want to miss.
Starting point is 00:20:03 But first, it's time for the Jackson Report. Jeffrey, man, it's like everywhere you turn, like the noose is just getting tighter and tighter in many ways as we feel like we have these victories. Then you're like, wait a minute, what's going on? Where's that coming from? Yeah, there's West. way to look at it. I mean, this is our job, is to act, inform, activate. It never was supposed to be easy.
Starting point is 00:20:35 We got lulled into sleeping for a long time, but now we can make this change. And, you know, as we're working around, we see this digital world growing up around us very quickly. And I want to talk about one of the pieces of technology, the most intimate pieces of technology, I think probably everyone watching has with them 24 hours a day, and that's their cell phone. There's a new study. The year's still young, but a new study came out this year talking about the cell phone and what it possibly could do to the body. This is it right here. Altricenography can document dynamic in vivo rulo formation due to mobile phone exposure. A lot of words. They're in vivo being in body. That does not, that doesn't look like it's written in my language.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Yeah, exactly. So basically you're using ultrasound and they're saying in vivo, which means in the body. And they're saying there's a word there, Rulo. I actually had to look that up too. It's first time I've actually seen that. Rullo is basically the stacking of red blood cells. So to give you an idea, red blood cells are floating around, they're individual, but then something that causes them to start stacking. This phenomenon can actually indicate health conditions, infections, cancers, but it could also restrict blood flow because these blood cells are getting clumped. And so what they did was they, I'll go to the study. I'll let the researcher tell a story here. It says in this study, the popliteal vein, that's this little vein
Starting point is 00:21:50 behind your knee, it's really close to the surface. That's what they chose. The popliteal vein of a healthy volunteer was imaged with ultrasonography prior to and following the placement of an idol, but active smartphone against her knee for five minutes. So ultrasound shoots a high energetic wave, a sound wave into the body. And when it hits something, it creates an echo, like if it hits an organ or a baby. And that echo is fed to a computer, and that creates the image. If there's nothing there, no image is created. So I want to show you the first picture.
Starting point is 00:22:20 This is before putting the cell phone on this woman's popliteal vein. And you see a big vein in the middle. That's that black thing. and you see it pumping. Not much going on there. You want that to be black because that means the ultrasound is not hitting anything of density to create an echo to bounce back. But now they put the cell phone, the active cell phone on that vein behind the knee. And let's look at what it did. Now you have, you have an echo. You have this sludge, this white sludge. That is low. That is the stacking of red blood cells. And this is in real time in someone's knee. So this isn't in a
Starting point is 00:22:53 petri dish or a test tube. This is happening in five minutes of exposure. you have this stacking of blood to the point where an ultrasound can pick it up where it did in five minutes ago. And so what's interesting about this study is obviously it's so fast, it's real time, but it says in the study two months after the initial study was performed, the subject returned to the ultrasound department. It was re-imaged utilizing the same protocol. Images obtained five minutes after your cell phone exposure to the popliteal faucet, again produced low formation, confirming reproducibility of the initial observation. So they went back in, kept doing it. Went back in, kept doing it. So this is only one person.
Starting point is 00:23:31 But anybody using ultrasound could do this in real time and report there. I mean, social media is active. You can report it on social media if you wanted to. And so we're talking about radio frequency electromagnetic radiation. This is environmental toxin. Most people think of chemicals in the water, pollution in the air as environmental toxins. But this is, I guess, the new version of environmental toxin, these invisible waves that are permeating everything, our body, our ecosystem. and people will say, well, that was just one person.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Maybe we should do some studies on this. Well, here's some studies you may have missed. I'm going to go through them really quick, but you can look these up if you're on our newsletter. We'll send you these studies. One of them, the association between smartphone use and breast cancer risk among women. They concluded, the research has concluded, to the best of our knowledge, we're the first to find that excessive smartphone use significantly
Starting point is 00:24:15 increased the risk of breast cancer particularly, or particularly for participants with a smartphone addiction who maintained a close distance between the breasts and the smartphone phone and who had a habit of smartphone use before bedtime. Did you hear about that study before? You probably should have. It's a government telling you about that. Let's go on to the men. Men are not getting away that easily either. Here's some studies with males. Effective radiation emitted by wireless devices on male reproduct hormones systemic review. There's a quick spoiler alert for the interest of time. It lowers testosterone. That's what they found in that study.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Another one, long-term exposure of 4G smartphone radio frequency electromagnetic radiation diminishes male reproductive potential in the testes of adult rats. That's a big deal. And then we have just another systemic review of the risks of health and well-being from this RFR admitted from cell phones. That's just going over all the cancer risks and everything. But people are out there going, wow, this may be the first time I've heard about this. I wonder if the government's looking into it. Well, they have been. This is the national toxicology program. You know those people that found that fluoride reduces the IQ in children. That was the big report. Well, now they have been studying this. In fact, they received $30 million to study it for 10 years. And so this has
Starting point is 00:25:28 been their conclusion. This was under the Biden administration. That's just a quick caveat. And this is what they found. The NTP studies found that high exposure to RFRs, radio frequency radiation, 900 megahertz used by cell phones, was associated with clear evidence of an association with tumors in the hearts of male rats, some evidence of an association with tumors in the brains of male rats, and some evidence of the association with tumors in the adrenal glands of male rats. probably a big deal. What a great place to start more studies or for the government to go into this more and look further into this because as we know, this digital grid is going all around us. We, 2G, 3G, 4G, now we're at 5G. We don't know where that's going to stop.
Starting point is 00:26:08 So this is an actual report from the NTP, the government report. I'm going to go and read this. Everyone's judged to be on the floor on this. The research using the small scale RFR exposure system was technically challenging and more resource intensive than expected. In addition, This exposure system was designed to study the frequencies and modulations used in 2G and 3G devices, but is not representative of newer technologies such as 4G, 4GLTE, and 5G, which is still not fully defined. Taking these factors into consideration, no further work with this RFR exposure system will be conducted, and NEHS and National Institute Environmental Health Sciences, has no further plans to conduct additional RFR exposure studies at this time. I don't think I've ever seen that because it's really difficult.
Starting point is 00:26:53 figure it out we're just throwing up our heads and saying good luck we're not going to study it oh man you're straight up lazy your government's straight up lazy the first declaration of laziness i've ever seen in a government document so i mean so the national toxic toxicology program is under hHS so obviously new leadership in there is this going to change this is a drum we're going to beat because it needs to obviously i mean that's their own that's their own admissions what they found there but a lot of schools because kids are really at really at, obviously women as well and men, but kids are really at a vulnerable age with the brain development and the cancers and the fertility situations when it comes to these cell phones.
Starting point is 00:27:32 They have these cell phones. Schools are not waiting to act. So this is the good news. Here's in the UK, across, I mean, really across much of the world, schools average exam results jump entire grade after phone ban. A lot of schools in the UK are banning this. And then the US, smartphones are finally getting expelled from class. According to this article, it says starting at the beginning of the 25-26 school year New York public and charter schools will be implementing plans for bell-to-bell smartphone bans, which prohibit the unsanction use of smartphones and other internet-enabled personal devices and school grounds in K-12 schools for the entire school day. But this is a great news here. More than half of American states have something
Starting point is 00:28:09 on the books, while more than a dozen have policies that resemble outright bans, many of which will go into effect next year. France, Italy, and Netherlands, Brazil, all have national bans of some sort and countless other countries are close behind. Wow. Amazing. Yeah. This is change at the local level. This is how it happens. Well, and I'm, you know, I'm I've actually talked to Robert Kennedy Jr. on this and he has been outspoken and I think was even sort of distantly involved with some of these lawsuits has brought about the issues with cell phone radiation. And so I'm happy to know that someone at HHS is going to be looking at this. I'm sure they're looking at it. I
Starting point is 00:28:48 Obviously, you know, I mean, the amount of things that are wrong with our environment right now and the amount of products that were never properly tested that we're discovering now, I mean, it's just a tidal wave. I'm sure Bobby feels like he's drinking from a fire hose, but this is one I know it's important. I mean, we've got to get to the bottom of it, man. I mean, everywhere I look, I just keep thinking about those little earbuds, which, you know, I've seen when you put the little EMF detector, it's like worse than the phone itself. But we're just, if it's like clogging up your blood, if it's making it thicker and you're doing it in your brain, I mean, God knows where this is all gonna lead, you know, 20 years from now. Obviously, we're, you know, sort of the sickest nation in the world, but, you know, that's, this is one of those things contributing. And we have another important study on fertility, but before we get there, I wanna stay on this conversation
Starting point is 00:29:36 about digitization and energy that's just surrounding us right now. Last week, we reported on Spain and Portugal, their entire country's grids went down, unprecedented. In that report, we showed signs and experts talking about the UK was going to be next in line for that to happen to and actually happened this week on the commuter lines that went down in London. Those went back up really quick. It didn't cause a countrywide power outage. But let's talk about power here in the United States.
Starting point is 00:30:00 These are the headlines coming out of really corporate media that this is just straight up mainstream. Much of US at heightened risk for summer power outages regulators warn, well, that's not good. You get into this article, it says the surge in demand is driven by a number of factors according to earlier data published by federal and state regulators, the proliferation of energy-hungry data centers and manufacturing plants is a key cause. They are consuming energy faster than utilities can bring new power plants online. Data centers for the breakneck AI build-out. This is this race for artificial intelligence.
Starting point is 00:30:35 And when it comes to energy consumption, that is the lion's share of what is being taken to build this AI, this artificial intelligence. And former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, was recently in front of Congress. what he had to say. What we need from you, if I may say that directly, is need energy in all forms, renewable, non-renewable, whatever. It needs to be there, and it needs to be quickly. I and others are investing in things like fusion, which are incredible, but they're not going to arrive soon enough for the need. And I'll frame this at the end by my comments about China. So people are planning 10 gigawatt data centers. Now, just to do the translation,
Starting point is 00:31:17 An average nuclear power plant in the United States is one gigawatt. How many nuclear power plants can we make in one year where we're planning this 10 gigawatt data center? It gives you a sense of how big this crisis is. Many people think that the demand of energy part that our industry takes will go from 3% to 99% of total generation. One of the estimates that I think is most likely is that data centers will require an additional 20%
Starting point is 00:31:47 29 gigawatts of power by 2027 and 67 more gigawatts by 2030. Gives you a sense of the scale that we're talking. These things are industrial at a scale I have never seen in my life. No, stop. Please. I mean, in order to address this crisis, there is no crisis. We don't need AI. I have all the computing power I need to walk through the day to feed myself, to take care of my kids and to go to a baseball game.
Starting point is 00:32:14 I mean, folks, this is pure insanity. I mean, what he just said, like, each giga, what do they call it a gigawatt? It takes a nuclear power plant and they're going to need like a hundred of them by 2030. And this idea that 99% of our energy is all going to go to computing power. I mean, this whole thing is absolutely insane. So let's make sure I live in my five-minute city and you lock me down so that we have plenty of energy so that could all be sucked up by my AI ruler. Oh my God, folks.
Starting point is 00:32:49 We've seen where this movie goes. We have seen this movie. We know how it ends. I wish someone in Congress would raise their hand and said, so we're not doing net zero anymore? Right. Exactly. So net zero is out then, right?
Starting point is 00:33:03 Obviously, we don't have, like we'll have 1% of the power we need to run AI, which is an existential crisis. We've got to get it online as quick as possible so that we at Google and others like us and brawley, Ian Musk, can make billions and billions of dollars off of it, for what, to make our lives more complicated, you know, more controlled, more tracked. And they're very serious about it. This is where their money is going. So this is the headline here. Google agrees to fund the development of three nuclear, new nuclear sites. So now Google has
Starting point is 00:33:37 its own nuclear reactors. Who would have thought it would come to this? And so people are watching this and going, you know, this is this is huge. This is like apocalyptic world changing stuff. What can I do? Well, here's a conversation. This is this is a conversation at the grassroots at the community level that's happening right now in the United States. There's a data center. It's called Data Center Alley in northern Virginia. There are 576 data centers there. You can see this map. It's the most dense place where all of these data centers are in the United States. 70% of the world's internet traffic flows through these data centers. And because of artificial intelligence, appetite, growing appetite,
Starting point is 00:34:14 Virginia data centers are running out of power. So the solution from a New Jersey company is to run a massive almost 70-mile power line from Pennsylvania to northern Virginia. The problem with that is it has to go through Maryland. And Maryland is specifically Baltimore Carroll and Frederick counties. And it's basically bypassing the needs of people in Maryland. They don't really get anything out of this. In fact, here's the kicker.
Starting point is 00:34:43 They actually, it's a detriment to them for some of them that's a burden. And here's one of the headlines, a developer, that's this company that's going to run this from New Jersey, may try seizing private property from Maryland Green Energy Project. They're trying to use eminent domain. This is conservation land. These are people's private residences. Farmland as well, lots of it. And so Maryland legislators and representatives are already trying to counter this.
Starting point is 00:35:09 They put a bill forward, a proposed bill to protect farmers from property losses amid transmission line debate. And this bill is going through the Maryland General Assembly right now. It's SB 0661. And they're at least trying to get the high value for this. So they're saying if farmland has to get taken, you're going to have 350% of the highest appraised value of the property. So that's one way to look at this, one way of the bill.
Starting point is 00:35:33 But there's also legal attorneys getting involved in this. One of the headlines here just recently over the past week, Maryland attorneys joined David and Goliath fight against New Jersey utility over land rights. And this whole project is called the Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project or MPRP for short. There's a website, it's grassroots website, stopmpr.com. You can go there, get every piece of information here, go there to find out. If you're in Maryland, you're finding out about this, you can help people in Maryland. That's where a lot of the information is going to be happening.
Starting point is 00:36:03 So when we talk about AI and artificial intelligence, I mean, a lot of people know it, maybe help them write an email better, auto corrects, we have chat GPT that can just ask any question you get an answer. But what does the new AI look like? What is this developing into? Well, people like Mark Zuckerberg, the head of meta,
Starting point is 00:36:21 is giving a glimpse into what the next iterations of AI might happen. And this is it. Zuckerberg's grand vision, most of your friends will be artificial intelligence, AI, listen to it from Zuckerberg himself. All right. I think as the personalization loop kicks in and the AI just starts to get to know you better and better, I think that will just be really compelling.
Starting point is 00:36:49 You know, one thing just from working on social media for a long time is there's the stat that I always think is crazy. The average American, I think, has, I think it's fewer than three friends. three people they'd consider friends. And the average person has demand for meaningfully more. I think it's like 15 friends or something, right? I guess there's probably some point where you're like, all right, I'm just too busy. I can't deal with more people.
Starting point is 00:37:14 But the average person wants more connectivity connection than they have. So there's a lot of questions that people ask of stuff like, okay, is this going to replace kind of in-person connections or real life? connections and my default is that the answer to that is probably no I think it it you know I think that there are all these things that are better about kind of physical connections when you can have them but the reality is that people just don't have the connection and they feel more alone a lot of the time than they would like so I think that a lot of these things that today there might be a little bit
Starting point is 00:37:56 of a stigma around I would guess that over time we will find the vocabulary as a society to be able to articulate why that is valuable and why the people who are doing these things are like why they are rational for doing it and like how it is adding value for their lives. Spoken like a true robot. I mean, it's this whole, this story,
Starting point is 00:38:22 all of it right now, folks, it's coming. What are we going to do about it, right? I mean, we got to really, we need to start think tanking on this. I mean, the statement, first of all, I mean, the lack of sincerity around it. No, of course, it's not going to get in the way of human interaction. My Facebook and Meta have already done that.
Starting point is 00:38:41 We've destroyed the interactions of your children. They no longer date. They no longer talk face to face. They just sit there all day, you know, in this protective space from a distance, communicating or what they think is communication through Facebook. And it's like, I don't think it's going to get in the way of, you know, you'll still have those human interaction and contacts when you can. get them. It's going to be more and more difficult as I lower you into jelly and stick tubes
Starting point is 00:39:07 into you and turn you into a human battery so we can run the AI. I mean, these guys are taking it all away from it. So, oh, don't worry about it. That the robots just, it's just there for extra companionship, not to replace anything. I mean, it's, and what's crazy, Jeffrey, is this isn't like we're not watching a movie. And this isn't even like 20 years down the road. These things are coming. They're coming online this year. These robots. are right around the corner. And you're looking at a salesman for an agenda right there. And it's interesting because the tone of him and Eric Schmidt,
Starting point is 00:39:43 they're selling you something as though it's already been sold and you don't have a choice. Don't worry, you'll find the vocabulary once it's upon you to describe what we're about to do to you. And so your question is, these mega corporations are racing forward. Is anybody watching out for this? Well, there are. They're think tanks. There are people watching out for this.
Starting point is 00:40:02 Here's a recent headline just to give you a counter. AI firm warns to calculate threat of super intelligence or risk escaping human control. Well, yeah, it says artificial intelligence companies have been urged to replicate the safety calculations that underpin Robert Oppenheimer's first nuclear tests before they release all powerful systems. Max, tag mark a leading voice.
Starting point is 00:40:23 That's great. We're urging them. All right, go ahead. Yes, exactly. This is out of MIT. Max, Tegmark, a leading voice. and AI safety said he had carried out calculations akin to those of US physicist Arthur Compton
Starting point is 00:40:37 before the Trinity test. That's the first nuclear test that said that there's a small chance that may ignite the atmosphere and had found a 90% probability that a highly advanced AI would pose an existential threat. So this conversation is starting to happen. But again, these corporations are moving forward and racing forward.
Starting point is 00:40:54 And here is Apple's latest headline out of the Wall Street Journal, Apple to support brain implant control of its devices. I remember, holdables, wearables, and plantables. We're at that last stage here. Excuse me, it says in the article, historically humans interacted with their computers mechanically using keyboards and mice. Smartphones introduce touch of behavioral input,
Starting point is 00:41:15 but still an observable physical movement. The new capability means Apple devices won't need to see the user make specific movements. The devices can detect users' intentions from decoding brain signals. And so you look at Apple and you go, wow, they seem like a great company. This is also the same week, running really, right next to that headline, Apple to pay out nearly 100 million over claims phones listened
Starting point is 00:41:36 in on users' conversations. Remember when you say something and then all of a sudden you get an ad for it on Facebook 10 seconds later? That's Apple for you. And so do we want to trust these AI, these corporations to give benevolent AI? I'm sorry, I just can't do it. This is where we're at right now in the world. It's really, really scary stuff, Jeffrey.
Starting point is 00:41:57 And, you know, I try to keep a sense of humor about this. and everyone watches the show, and they come up to me in the airport and say, you know, you'll always give me a sense of hope. And I do have a sense of hope because you're out there, Jeffrey, and we're reporting on this. And we've been able to stop other stupid ideas. But we really got to watch, as you're saying, this brainwashing, you know, sort of around, you know, this idea that it's already happened. Look, hey, you could just decide whether you want one or not, but whether they're going to be here,
Starting point is 00:42:24 that's already been decided for you. Really? I don't know that. It's sort of like real ID, like finding out from Twilad that there's actually states pushing back. We're all under this assumption that it's just, you know, already behind us. And so that's what they use, right? They try to make us believe the decisions are already been made and you're out of it. That's why it's so important, I think, that we stay on top of all this.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Yeah. So really. Absolutely. Yeah, go ahead. Absolutely. And just finally wrapping up here last week, we talked about some of the fertility issues. This has been an issue with the COVID vaccines since the inception, since the rollout of them. We've been reporting on this.
Starting point is 00:42:59 but for some reason it's hit this, this breakaway speed in the public's ideology of this needs to change. And so just there's a pre-print we reported on last week out of the Czech Republic, which is a real-world data. And it's the rates of successful conceptions according to, so they looked at the COVID-19 vaccination status. And they basically said, not going to overthrow that whole segment again, they said during the entire study period, these successful conceptions were lower for the women that took the shots. they weren't conceiving. So it lowered their fertility in just straight up terms. And so you can see at one of the graphs from here, this is really the most shocking piece of that. You can just see it. The white line are the women that did not take the shot. You can see their successful conceptions were
Starting point is 00:43:45 way up. The dark line, starting from 2021 and ramping up and kind of leveling out where the vaccinated. You can see they had lower successful conceptions all the way through. And so I want to just take that piece and that's going to illuminate this next story because these studies are now coming out very quickly and it's up to the FDA to act on this. And for this next study, I want to introduce a term called primordial follicle. And we have a little picture here just to walk people through. A primordial follicle is during gestation, a woman forms her reserves of primordial follicles during fetal life. And this is the ovarian reserve. This is their woman's eggs. And they're not restorative. So what you start with
Starting point is 00:44:24 and what forms is what you get through your entire life. And so that will present this study here. the impact of M RNA and inactivated COVID-19 vaccines on ovarian reserve. And the researchers found the counts of primordial primary and secondary follicles decreased significantly in the inactivated vaccine group relative to controls. And further, in the MRNA vaccine group compared to the inactivated group. So they used these two vaccines, straight up placebo, but they also had the Pfizer vaccine, it was the MRNA vaccine. And they used the CoronaVAC.
Starting point is 00:44:54 That was China's vaccine. That was what they call the inactivated vaccine in this study. And you can look at this image, this table from the study to give an idea. So you have those base primordial follicles, the seed of life, really, the eggs. And the control group had 106 starting out. And the MRNA vaccine group had 42, only 42. That's over 60 percent reduction. The inactivated vaccine group, that's the CoronaVAC, had 70, which is about a 34 percent
Starting point is 00:45:27 reduction from what the placebo group had. That's a big deal. I mean, we're literally taking out the ability of women to have any type of, we're having it. We're 60% less fertility throughout their lifetime on top of a lot of these. So when you see successful conceptions, is this all one conversation? That's what we have to figure out. And that's this kind of the gold standard science that we need to be doing.
Starting point is 00:45:53 And we look at the FDA for this. We look at the CDC and HHS for this. And can the FDA pause a vaccine, pull a vaccine? Well, they can. We have a case study now. It just happened. FDA warns seniors to avoid the vaccine after deadly complications. This is a vaccine for the mosquito-borne chicken gunia. This is one of those tropical illnesses we always hear about, these overlooked tropical illnesses. But this vaccine was approved by the FDA in November 2023. And actually, there's been two deaths. There's been a lot of severe adverse reactions. people getting this vaccine are actually getting the illness, the full-blown illness of this virus.
Starting point is 00:46:32 So it's a really big deal. It sounds like it's a failure, and they pause it. So we have a case study there, but now this brings us to the FDA. We have their Verpak meeting. This is the meeting of these experts, these independent experts. It's the first meeting of the new administration and their meeting on May 22nd to look at the COVID-19 vaccine. And this is where people can make their voice heard.
Starting point is 00:46:53 This is the comment period. you can go to the website here, you click on comment, and you can put your comment in. This is the public docket. This is the official website of the FDA. Make your voice heard. This is something that can stop just waiting for people to do the right thing, no matter who they are in positions of power.
Starting point is 00:47:10 We can still do something here from where we're sitting. So this is one of the most important things we can do right now. All right. Let's bring that up again just for everyone that's watching this show. As I've said, we have the strongest, most powerful activist audience out there. You guys are amazing. Earlier, we gave you the website Twyla did to get on the bottom of Real ID. Take down this information right now. We have till May 23rd. Do it right now. Don't procrastinate.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Make sure today that you make a comment. These things matter. They read this stuff. And especially now, this is the type of power that Dr. McCari needs. And of course, Robert Kennedy Jr., say, look at how many people in America are against these things. All of these things matter right now. Definitely be involved, get involved. Jeffrey, amazing reporting, as always. You know, there's so much work to do, but, you know, one step at a time, one move at a time. And I know you're inspiring people to make a difference. So it's really great to have you on the team.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Continue the great work. Thank you, thank you. All right, good. I'll see you next week. All right. Well, look, there's so much that we do. So many of the research that you see is being done by scientists from all around the world. We have a network, really, the informed consent action network, really is a network.
Starting point is 00:48:23 that is from people all around the world that are weighing in. We check in with them on a weekly basis, find out what's going on around the world, which is why we see this as an international news organization and the work that we do. Hey, wherever you are in the world, and I mean it when I say that, we're all stepping on the high wire together.
Starting point is 00:48:40 These are dangerous times. We are on a razor's edge of losing all control of our societies, of our government, but even more importantly, our own personal sovereignty and our body, sovereignty, which is why the work that we do, we think is really important. There's no other news organization like this where we not only report on the issues that we see, we bring lawsuits on it. We go and sue the government when we think that they're making a mistake or they're off
Starting point is 00:49:09 track. Don't just think because we've got friends in government right now that we are going to stop. The pressure is on. You're bringing FOIA requests as we speak, Freedom of Information Act requests. And if we don't get what we want, if someone is sneaking around and not letting Bobby know that something's getting blocked. Believe me, they're going to know. He's going to know when we bring that lawsuit. So that work is ongoing. And right now we have a great way to raise funds because one of the things that, you know, is out there is how do you find your community, which is a huge part of what we're doing right now. We all learned it during COVID. Community is everything. How do you recognize that person? Are they on the same page? Well, it sure would be
Starting point is 00:49:45 great if they were wearing a high wire shirt or a hat. Then you know exactly what conversation you can have. Well, we got a discount going on going on. into the spring, into summer. Take a look at this. Summer is coming in hot, and it's time to get fired up with exclusive highwire gear in our biggest sale ever. Everything in our merch store is 25% off, from hoodies to hats to our signature highwire teas, and it's happening right now through May 31st. Our gear is more than just apparel. It's a statement. So join the High Wire Tribe. But hurry, these deals won't last long. Shop now at highwire.shop to support our mission and bravely spring into summer with style.
Starting point is 00:50:32 So 25% off. I hope you go to the merch store right away and grab some of your stuff. One of my favorite things is this Faraday bag. I mean, I have one, everyone, our team has one. Why? Well, let's look at the headline that we were just looking at with that Jeff was talking about. Apple to pay out nearly 100 million. and over claims phones listened in on users' conversations. They're also there listening when they're on and they're sitting there. They're tracking you. Elon Musk has even recently put out a post. If Apple integrates OpenAI at the OS level, then Apple devices will be banned at my companies.
Starting point is 00:51:08 That is an unacceptable security violation. And visitors will have to check their Apple devices at the door where they will be stored in a Faraday cage. Well, here it is, folks. Right here, get on it before Elon Musk has to mandate. on you. There it is a high wire Faraday pouch. Just one of the amazing things that we have in there. And I think it's a great gift. And it's a fun gift to give to your friends. You know, all those times you're going on those birthday parties to your friend that already has
Starting point is 00:51:34 like everything? I bet they don't have this. Say, hey, how about a Faraday bag for your phone? And you can hand them Elon Musk's post there if they want to understand what the gift is all about. Look, you know, all lapping aside, the merch is great. This work that we're doing is more critical than ever. I've been saying it as I've been speaking all over the country. We only have three and a half years right now. And look at real ID is coming right now under the Trump administration. So it's not like they're perfect. And mostly in Republican states like here in Texas that are pushing it. It's why I keep saying I'm politically marooned. You know,
Starting point is 00:52:08 I'm all about telling the truth. That's what we do here on the high wire and we're fighting for you. So every single dollar that you give us really makes a difference. We know millions of you are watching. Only a tiny percentage of you actually get involved. I think we're higher than the average person or, you know, organization when you look online. But seriously, make today the day that you decide to get involved to make a difference. We want to bring powerful lawsuits. We bring lawsuits that actually, you know, change government rules. We brought back the religious exemption for the entire state of Mississippi. I can did that. Our attorney secured the religious exemption to vaccination in Mississippi back in April of 20.
Starting point is 00:52:48 We're working hard in California right now. We won back the religious exemption for all the universities of California allows religious exemption on the heels of two successful. I can't back lawsuits. You can't beat that, folks. Who else can tell you that they're doing that? Who else is having that level of success? It's not because I'm independently wealthy. All of this is costing millions of dollars throughout the years and you're making it possible for us to stand our ground when they try to wait us out.
Starting point is 00:53:15 When they try to make it expensive, we just say errands stay in. there that people are with us. This is your voice, folks. This is how you do it. We now have four holdouts that still remain in the free to five journey. And look, there's other states that are trying to take away the religious exemption. We are going to be fighting there. So if you can become a recurring donor, this is how you do it. Just go to the top of the page, click on Donate to I Can. And we're asking for you to be a recurring donor. Think about what is it worth to you to have freedom. What is it worth to you to have the next three and a half years to have these attack dogs like me and Jeffrey Jackson and Aaron Siri fighting on your behalf? We're asking for $25 a month.
Starting point is 00:53:54 If you can give more than that, that makes up for those that can't. And for those of you, I would just say whatever you can, even if it's a dollar a month, you get to say it means something. I'm boating with my dollars. I'm a part of something that actually makes a difference. So for all of you that have donated up in this point and made this all possible, thank you. For those that want to get involved right away, you can do it by mail, stock, international transfer, crypto vehicles, gift cards, points, legacy giving, or if you have something else, and look, if you're one of those people has done really well in life and you want to have a concierge experience and maybe donate to a very specific lawsuit or something that will have that conversation with you. Just type in your information at info at I can decide.org and we'll reach out to you. at the heart of the work that I can and the high wire is done is really vaccine injury. Yes, we believe in cleaning up the food supply. Yes, we want fluoride out of our water.
Starting point is 00:54:51 Yes, we want the EMFs looked at. Are they dangerous? Is there a better way to use a phone? Is there a better phone? Should I be on a wire or not? All of these, we want all these things investigated, PFS chemicals, plastics. Yes, yes, yes. But the heart of why I'm here is vaccine injury.
Starting point is 00:55:07 I left CBS and the talk show the doctors because I got into the conversation of vaccine injury. And I made the documentary Vaxed. And the moment I did that, I said goodbye to all corporate sponsors, especially pharmaceutical sponsors, that make television. I was willing to walk away from television because this story is that important. It is that big. I believe it is the greatest lie ever told. Vaccines are safe and effective. Certainly the safety part, the greatest.
Starting point is 00:55:37 lie ever told. Now we're starting to see failures in efficacy as you saw with the COVID vaccine, but still, was it safe? How many people was it safe for? If it wasn't, what did it do? A really, really important documentary is releasing tonight here in Austin, Texas. Follow the silence. You've seen many of the people on our show, Brian Dressing at the heart of React 19, an incredibly important group. I hope you're donating to them as we speak right now. But today I just wanted to follow up. There's more important stories. When I traveled with Vax, we recorded, I think, over a thousand vaccine injury stories on that bus. Today I want to record a few more. Take a look at this. I would like to begin my testimony by detailing the difficulty of its drafting. On June 23,
Starting point is 00:56:26 2021, I went to obtain my second COVID vaccine. I did so because I believed that it was in my best interest to insulate myself and my family. I went as a whole healthy and optimistic young man. I went and left there a cripple. I was dismissed, insulted, and felt utterly abandoned by the most advanced medical system in the world. My single mother and younger brother have lovingly walked through this journey with me, but I cannot help but recognize that my disability has in many ways expanded to them. We have suffered together through displacement, hospital stays, ambulance rides, specialists, struggling to maintain what normalcy can be availed to us. I could go on. The allotted time is far too short to give full breaths to the horrors I've experienced into all that I have lost.
Starting point is 00:57:17 But in my final moments with you, I ask, how long? How long until we are acknowledged? I have faith that something can be done, so we must be willing to look at this. People must be willing to look at us with open eyes and a compassion your heart. Again, I ask, how long? Maddie. The first question was why isn't the United States looking in our own backyard for our data? Madeline, hey honey, it's daddy.
Starting point is 00:57:52 But they were. They just weren't telling us what it said. Maddie? Maddie? Maddie? Maddie. Hey, what are you having her? I need to take this out.
Starting point is 00:58:04 No, I need this out. I can't. do it. Most of you have never heard of me. I did my part. I got it. And most likely have never heard of most of us here. My hips felt like somebody had a ratchet strap around my waist getting tighter. Two hours after the vaccine in my left arm, the tremor started. 36 hours later, had nausea, vomiting, and then started having trouble breathing. When I brought up the fact, well, what do you about the vaccine because that's the only variable I said no it's not the COVID vaccination the vaccination is safe why it is the responsibility of sick
Starting point is 00:58:45 people to do this is beyond me I participated in the clinical trial for AstraZeneca she participated in the Pfizer COVID vaccine trial they dropped me from the trial 35 adverse events reduced to functional abdominal pain it's a stomach egg I wonder what else was hidden CT scan came back home. She just said that function neurologic disorder is typically caused by stress and anxiety. That's what's going on with you. Even my primary care provider, she diagnosed me with psychological conversion of disorder.
Starting point is 00:59:21 The truth is not out there. And it's thanks to these guys. They've done everything they can to hide people, to hide injustices, and to even literally hide the cries of those people that are suffering. People started telling me, hey, there's a group out there of other people like you. At first, when I joined these groups and I started reading through everything,
Starting point is 00:59:49 it was a bit overwhelming to see how many there were on there and how many symptoms there were after the vaccine. If you look at VAIR's database, there are more than 1,000 neurological side effects already reported. None of us who are denying that this potential vaccine, injury here. We already have 1,200 people who've died. And that's in about two months of availability. For these MRI vaccines, there is incredible BS out there about thousands of people dying, etc.
Starting point is 01:00:19 That just ain't true. This stack of patients are patients that are stuck. There were 50 to 100 reports going missing. I mean, there's IDs being disappeared. If they put down that it was a vaccine injury, they actually won't get reimbursed, so it gets labeled as anxiety. Diagnosed me with vertigo, severe panic attack. Factitious disorder. So basically she was making you up. I was muffled, I was told I was wrong, I was told to go home, and I was told not to talk.
Starting point is 01:00:45 These are human lives. They're just gonna stay in limbo forever. I made a decision very early on that I wasn't going to turn into a better person because of this. You know? Because that just, I'll just make it worse for everybody. This is already a pretty terrible situation as is. In my mind, I'm thinking,
Starting point is 01:01:05 For the world, if I die, everybody would be better off. My wife wouldn't have to drive up there every day. She wouldn't have to worry about this. I'm not going to give up, and I'm not going to give up on these people. I'm joined by three of the real-life stories that are featured in all of the silence. I've got here Andre and Nikki and Doug. Nikki and Doug, I want to thank you all for joining us today. And Christian, you're Andre's brother.
Starting point is 01:01:56 And my understanding is you're there to take care of and sometimes speak. I want to thank you for joining us today. So let's start with you, Andre. What is the message that you want the world to know right now is this film is releasing? And, you know, you're trying to keep a positive energy around. things. What's important for us to know? Regardless of what anybody in power or in the public has to say or what their opinions are, we have the inherent freedom and power to make change. To resist deception, corruption, to expose it, to uprooted, and to do our best in our own lives, to exercise
Starting point is 01:02:56 exercised freedoms, rights, and liberties that God has given us. My life has been for the past four years a myasma of gaslighting, of suffering, of dealing with things that I never imagined that I have to deal with losing things. I never thought that I'd lose. But just because I'm in this chair, just because I'm in this strap to keep myself sitting upright, doesn't mean that I'm powerless. I'm made in the image of the Almighty God. We are all made in the image of the Almighty God. And the people who did this, who lied, who covered up, who gaslit, they will be held accountable to the Almighty God.
Starting point is 01:03:52 That is, I want The most important thing I want people to know Is that He sees us He knows us, he loves us, he is near to those who are broken-hearted Down-trodden, ostracized Like us, like me And he will
Starting point is 01:04:11 Vindicate the righteous He will make the truth come to light The truth sets free So out of anything of everything that's going to be said in this conversation, everything that you've seen me post or any statement that I've made, that is the most important thing. You can't keep us down just because you say you can.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Just because you've made the thing, and you've made the decision that is already coming, that you are not God. God is God. And we, his creation, who have been gifted with free, free will, with sovereignty, with the ability to act as responsible moral agent, we can put a stop to that. We can say no. Andre, those are really important words, and it is a huge part of what we try to get across is the powers in our hands.
Starting point is 01:05:12 I totally agree with you. We are created in the image and likeness of God, and we live in one of the only nations where we see our rights are endowed to us. by God. You know, who was Andre prior to this injury? What was your life and what were your dreams at that time? Before June 23rd of 2021, I was a college student. I just graduated from the community college of Philadelphia with an associate's degree in English and I was pursuing my bachelor's degree in English. I was hoping to become a teacher, maybe a writer, or there are a bunch of things going on on my head creatively. I'm an artist. I write, I write music, I draw, or I used to, I do my best to now, but because of my motor issues, it makes it a lot more difficult. And I wanted to, as long as I can
Starting point is 01:06:16 I've always just wanted to be the kind of person who can pour into others, who can distill the realities of life, the most important things that we need to survive and to thrive, and to pass that on to people who need it. I was bullied as a child for most of my childhood. I know even before all this happened, what being outcast feels like, what being abused feels like we're being beaten and and and and uh emotionally demeaned feels like and i was always i don't want this to happen to other people um i was a junior deacon at my church uh i would help the official deacons at my church go across uh our community to the sick and the shut
Starting point is 01:07:12 and couldn't attend to uh give communion uh excuse me so they could participate in that ordinance and it's ironic that like i'm now part like i i i didn't know at the time i was looking at my future in the sense i'm part i'm part that now the deacon is coming over to my house to give me communion um i had a very uh active and thriving uh friend group and they all for like they they're still with me you know but as we're as people grow up and become a you move out to different states, get married and all that. You know, we're so close, they care about me, and they've all been invested in my situation currently.
Starting point is 01:07:57 They've participated in the, can we talk about a campaign? Yeah. They've watched my interviews and my appearances with React 19 and so many other organizations, the Loris Kale show. Yeah. Yeah. But like at the end of the day, I was, I was, I was just, I was just a normal, I was just a normal dude, you know, before that, before all this.
Starting point is 01:08:26 And now I spend most of my days either in this chair or in a hospital bed in the dining room of, in the first floor in my mom's house, you know. Christian, since you know, you're, you know, you're Andre's brother, from your perspective, just, you know, obviously you're helping out. It's a big part of your life. Yeah. Why do you feel the need to sort of put your life aside right now and work on this? Because he's my brother. It's not, there's difficulties with the situation, but some difficult things aren't that complicated. and I have never been someone who's been comfortable seeing other people struggle or suffer.
Starting point is 01:09:22 I personally am a pretty sensitive person and the things that affect me affect me deeply. And when I see other people going through something similar or I can try to interpret or interpolate how they might feel within myself, I feel motivated to do something about it. And it's not an easy thing. It's not something I really completely understand. There are times where I'm doing a lot, like I'm helping him get dressed, or I'm helping him bathe,
Starting point is 01:09:56 or I'm cooking food for him, or I'm pushing his wheelchair, or helping to pack to go somewhere. And then there are times are days or extended periods of time where I can basically do nothing because of the severity of the severity of the way. illness and it's a weird paradox where typically you get paid to do a job because
Starting point is 01:10:17 you're good at it and because you can complete a task and it feels like I'm stuck in a situation where no matter what I do I can't fix it but fixing it isn't always the most important thing sometimes is just showing up and that's why I stay I'm sure your brother and I'm sure Andre you're happy to have someone so dedicated. You know, Nikki, I first met you briefly at, I think it was defeat the mandates in Los Angeles. We actually have a clip from you speaking out then. So let's take a look at this. I, Nikki Holland, and vaccine injured.
Starting point is 01:11:03 And I promise you, this health care worker, this physical therapist, This 38-year-old mom of three, this small-town girl from rural Tennessee, is not giving up. I will not be silenced. I will not be ignored. I will not comply. I will not back down. From Los Angeles, California to Washington, D.C., hear my story and hear our plea. So, you know, obviously an amazing moment statement there in front of a gigantic audience that needed to hear it.
Starting point is 01:11:50 But just with your story, in Andre's case, he has his life ahead of him, he's in university, but you have this other added complication of three children. Why did you get the vaccine? I was working as a physical therapist in home health. And at that time, they were saying that Medicare was going to make it pretty much telling anybody that accepted Medicare patients that business had to have all their employees vaccinated. And so it was something that was coming down the pipeline, and we thought we're going to have to make a choice. And it wasn't mandated at that exact time, but I went ahead and did it. I thought I'll just get it out of the way.
Starting point is 01:12:36 And later, when I was off, I actually got a letter saying if I wanted to return, I had to have the vaccine. Wow. Was the reaction immediate? It was about 24 to 36 hours after, nausea vomiting, and then the respiratory stuff happened. And I was in the hospital five days post-vaccine. And so after that, it was just a cascade of different systems failing. Wow. And so, describe to me what, is it a trache?
Starting point is 01:13:10 How does that work and why do you need it? Yeah. Well, this is actually my second trache that I got put in four weeks ago. I thought this was a friend that I could say, see you later too, and was healing. And little did I know a piano fell out of the sky and pretty much it's back. But I had laryngeos spasms, which the inside of my throat. throat would spasm and close off and I couldn't breathe. And so the only way that they, the, I was on the ventilator five times from February to May,
Starting point is 01:13:50 first one being one week after my vaccination. And that last time they couldn't get me off the ventilator because my throat was spasmed. So they did the tracheostomy, which was a hole below it so I could breathe. And they continued randomly after that. And then I went two years having multiple ones. And then I had a year where I didn't have any. And at that point, we decided, I decided for quality of life. I wanted it out.
Starting point is 01:14:18 And I assumed the risk. And a few months ago, started having issues. And four weeks ago, five weeks ago, had a major spasm again. And so they had no happen to put it back in. What is that like? Are you at home? Do you suddenly stop being able to breathe? I mean, I can't imagine how terrifying.
Starting point is 01:14:37 This when I was at church, I could feel tightness in my throat. It feels like somebody's starting, like you maybe have congestion, and then it worsens to the point where you feel like somebody's strangling you from the inside. And you start making these loud, their strider noises, because I can't breathe, can't get air in or out. It's a scary feeling to know. Wow. You've used social media something to get the story out.
Starting point is 01:15:08 Here's a social media post from Nikki when she was having particularly difficult time. I just know that I'm tired. I'm tired sometimes. I just feel like I don't want to break down, but I know if that kiddos are at home, I'm going to work not but off, and do whatever is physically possibly inside me. to give our goal, to give her to the life of someone normal, because that's all I can do. And so I know exactly what is possible with whatever's going on.
Starting point is 01:15:59 It's causing this. It was May 2nd, 2021. How long was that after receiving the vaccine? My vaccine was in February, mid-February. And so a few months. And that was the first time a few days after I'd gotten the original trache. And things just weren't making sense. A lot of stuff was going on.
Starting point is 01:16:27 So I had issues with obviously the respiratory. So this is what it shows. We're just showing right now. That's what's happening when your trachea is spasming. It closes off like that, right? Well, it's done several things. At first, they showed vocal cord. That's my vocal cords.
Starting point is 01:16:45 and they showed closure, so they said I had vocal cord dysfunction. Okay. The second time it happened, or the second time they were able to scope it was going on, it was actually showing like what they said was laryngeal dystonia. It's like it was withering and closing. And so that was above the vocal cord. So it's kind of, it's not been similar to what, you know, is produced. Wow.
Starting point is 01:17:10 I'm so sorry. But you look great. You look like I'm, it's, you know, it's, you know, Are you feeling better? Are you making some progress? I'm feeling better. I've always had a positive mindset, and I think that has drove me far in life. I think honestly that's why I'm still here.
Starting point is 01:17:31 And not every minute of the day is good, and there are plenty of times behind closed doors. But I think mentally we can power ourselves through a lot. And so, yeah. How old are your kids? My oldest is 18, senior. And then I have a 15 and a 14-year-old. How has this affected their lives? Oh, it's been difficult for them.
Starting point is 01:18:02 They've had to not see me a whole lot, especially in and out of the hospital at first. They're highly active in school and sports, so I'm missing their games. Sometimes I can't, you know, at the beginning and I couldn't get out of bed and they would have to help around the house more than that they should. And, you know, there's sacrifices. Do we go out to eat, spend this extra thing versus do I need to pay a medical bill? And you're used to a lifestyle that you've built and you become successful in your career and worked your whole life towards. And now it's all gone. and they're happy to adjust to everything too. We use a lot of, in being teenagers, dark humor and sarcasm
Starting point is 01:18:50 to get us through stuff. Doug, you, I believe, testified at Ron Johnson hearing. We have a great video of you sort of describing what you'd been to. Let's see what that's about. My name is Douglas Cameron. Prior to April 5th, 2021, I was a very healthy, physically active, 64-year-old when I received the Johnson & Johnson COVID vaccine at my workplace. I was encouraged by my employer to get the vaccine.
Starting point is 01:19:28 The day after the vaccine, on April 6th, I started experiencing side effects, I believe, were related to the shot. I lost bladder control, suffered ED. My legs felt odd. I had a cinching sensation in my hips. Over the next few days, my symptoms worsened, and I became alarmed, so I went to the ER. Eventually, they found out I had a blood clot in my leg. My entire spinal cords had swollen and hemorrhage. I aspirated on water, placed on a ventilator.
Starting point is 01:20:13 I was in ICU for two weeks. I was worried, concerned. My wife panicked about my condition. My life as I knew it was gone. I have had multiple MRIs, CAT scans, EKGs, x-rays, spinal angiograms, spinal taps, autoimmune blood tests, muscle biopsies. Everything has come back negative in an attempt trying to pin my paralysis on my body
Starting point is 01:21:01 and not the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. Today, I am a an unemployed paraplegic who's learning an entire new lifestyle. And the only thing I did between full health and my current condition is take a shot. Pretty hard to watch that. Why is it hard to watch? My whole life was gone. You know, like I say now, I'd work my whole life working on farms, ranches. And basically when you do that, you're working on other people's dreams. You know, you're helping, when you're working
Starting point is 01:22:01 on a farm or a ranch, you're working on their dreams. And then I would come home and work on my dreams at night, you know, get done. And then all my, you know, It was gone. It just gone. My dream was, my idea as a kid, was I wanted to have 40 acres, 40 cows,
Starting point is 01:22:29 and a part-time job. And that, I wanted to work and do everything. So that's about where I was at. I had the cows, and I had, I think, 35 acres. And they were, you know, working on my dream. And when that happened, a day after the shot, then I go through everything.
Starting point is 01:22:57 They get me in the hospital. And then I'm in ICU with the ventilator. And, you know, everything's going through your mind. What can you do? I can't move. I'm paralyzed. And I can't talk because I got a ventilator. My arms, I was paralyzed kind of up to my neck at one time
Starting point is 01:23:31 and could just barely raise my arms up. And I had a whiteboard is how I would communicate with my wife who she couldn't see me, but she was behind the glass doors in the hospital in ICU. And so I would ride on the whiteboard. So they were still, was that because they were just blocking anyone from entering? Right. All the ridiculous things were going on during COVID.
Starting point is 01:23:58 So she couldn't be by your side. She couldn't, she couldn't be there. They wouldn't let me see her or wouldn't let her see me for three days, the first three days. And then I could see her for one hour a day. She could stand over there by the curtain. You're literally in a prison. Well, that's what I felt like, you know, worse than prison. I mean, it was worse than prison.
Starting point is 01:24:24 So I rode on the whiteboard to get a hold of bill, gather the cows, sell the cows, we need the money, you know, to pay for this stuff. So it pretty well took care of everything. Sold off your dream. There wouldn't my, you know, I'd just lay in bed, couldn't talk to anybody. in. And just lay there and everything goes through your mind. The mental torture people go through.
Starting point is 01:25:02 For any of these people who have gone through this type of injury and come out on the other their mental mentality was stressed to the limit that most people can't survive. I'm honestly, I wonder, I know people that there's just no way they could do it. You know, it's these, the things that these guys gone through, you cannot imagine the thoughts that they have and I had. One time, I laid in bed and I was not strong enough physically to take the cap off of a pen for a whiteboard. And one night I'm laying there, and I guess it was night. You know, there were no clocks or anything, no windows where I was having.
Starting point is 01:26:09 And I laid there and I'd see my wife come there every day she's having to drive to come see me. Then she goes home, try to take care of what things that we had to do. And it just tearing me up inside. So one night they give you a sense. They give you so many damn drugs, you start hallucinating on stuff. And, I mean, it's torture. You know, it is mental torture. I lay there.
Starting point is 01:26:54 I thought, you know, probably be better for everybody else. You know, I just wasn't around anymore. So I ring the buzzer for the guy to come. And the guy was kind of mad. I don't know how it was for these guys, but they had to put the whole mask set up on, to come in the room, you know, they were afraid of dying, I guess.
Starting point is 01:27:27 And he was mad, and I ring, ring, ring. And he'd come in and he said, what do you want? And of course, I can't talk, you know. So you just kind of, And he said, you want the whiteboard? Yeah, so he throws some whiteboard down on me in the pan, and out the door he goes. And I'd lay there for a minute, and I'm looking at the pan,
Starting point is 01:28:00 and you know, you just cry and think, what the hell am I going to do with this pan? I can't get the damn lid off. So you got a tube down your throat. You're trying to bite thin, you don't have enough strength, and you just think of this mentally, just, you know, it's just torture. So I tried everything to get it off.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I couldn't do it, so I ring him again. And the guy is really kind of pretty ticked off, this go around. What do you need? I just kind of, you know, like a little puppy dog, look at him, like, and he yanks the lid off. I don't know where it went, but. So he leaves, and I just think, what the hell, you know? So I write on this whiteboard, and honestly, I don't remember what I was going to write initially.
Starting point is 01:29:11 And I'm laying there and kind of looking around. And I have, next to me, I have what they call them medical trees where they hang all the medicine. I got two of them full. You know, I don't know what the hell they're giving me. But I write on this, and I can't write very good. And I write, I want to die. And then I lay it near, I'm in the bed, and then I buzz the guy again. And this time he sees I got something written, and he just kind of looks, and I'm just laying there, and he kind of looks.
Starting point is 01:29:59 And then he just opens the door, no, no mask, no nothing, this go around, you know. and it says, I want to die. And he says, you want to die? And I just, yep, out the door he goes. Comes back in just a minute. And he says, have you got a DNR? And I go, yep, do not resuscitate. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:26 And he goes, you want to die? And I, yep. And he says, pull that tube out and he'll die. Well, I thought, heck, that's easy, you know. So, well, they got the tube in there, and they got you strapped pretty good. Wow. And I can't get it undone. But I'm trying, and I'm down here and struggling, trying to figure out how, you know,
Starting point is 01:30:58 and I'm thinking they yank this thing out, and then I kind of wonder what might happen to me, you know. Yeah. And I'm tired. I'm exhausted. Then out of nowhere, out of nowhere. And this goes to what Andre is talking about, God. And I'm not trying to preach to anybody. But if you don't believe in God, believe in angels.
Starting point is 01:31:27 Because this gal come in through that door had no business. I don't need a physical therapist because I ain't going nowhere. And I don't know what she's going to do. She comes, this gal comes in, sits next to me. And she goes, Doug, I don't take people home with me, but I took you home. And you don't want to die.
Starting point is 01:31:55 And I go, I don't want to die. I erase it real quick. And from there, that was the bottom of my trip, the COVID trip for me. And from there, I started to say, you know, I better put my big boy pants on and get with the program. And that's kind of what I did.
Starting point is 01:32:21 Luckily, my wife, Carlin, I've been married 42 years, and luckily she stayed with me and the odds of that. You're still married? You're not. No. The, generally people in this position don't stay married. 80% are divorced within the first year. Is that true?
Starting point is 01:32:48 I did. I was talking with Bree about it and I know, like, as far as any kind of things, vaccine injury, chronic illnesses, you have your partner in you, your partner and you have a relationship that is completely destroyed and turned up from somebody you love to now happen to be a caregiver. And it's very difficult on relationship. So yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:17 My wife told me that she said, well, we got married in sickness and health, is what she said, and by God, she's living, You know, and I applaud her for that. Most people, this type of thing is rough on families all the way around kids and families. So it tore your marriage apart, and how did your kids handle that?
Starting point is 01:33:47 I mean, not, you know. My marriage was something prior to it. Okay. Yeah, that was not related to it. I just, you know, I've talked to so many people, that they struggle and it's hard because you now go from somebody in a relationship that you all have dreams and stuff and you know I was I was engaged at that point and and we ended up you know not being able to go forward after many years because it's not when you go into it you've got all these plans and what's going to happen and who you all and now this happens and you're completely different.
Starting point is 01:34:33 Yeah. And it's very difficult and I think as someone that's not being selfish you have to look and say they didn't sign up for this, you know, but in the thing in sickness and in health, you know, when you take that level when you are married though, it's, it definitely does put a test to relationships. Yeah. Andre, you said in the video piece that, and you said here, you've been gas lit. Are you having trouble having doctors admit this is a vaccine injury? Or what is the, when you say gas lit, what exactly do you mean by that? So to begin, the integrity of my medical record has been compromised from almost the very beginning.
Starting point is 01:35:27 After, so my, the onset of my symptoms began, two hours after I received my second, Moderna shot, I started having tremors in my left arm. I took some Tylenol and took a nap, and it was like I didn't know what was going on, you know, and it wasn't like severe tremors. I was like, okay, I'll just take some Tylenol and take a nap and see what happens.
Starting point is 01:35:54 And it just got worse as the days went on. I go to the emergency room, I get tested to see if I have like rhabdomyelysis, I don't have a ribdomyelysis, which is like when like your muscle tissue gets into your bloodstream and like untreated, it can destroy your kidneys and kill you. So I tested negative for rhabdomylysis. The doctors came back and said, oh, you just have dehydrated, you know, drink some electrolyte water and you'll be fine. We've talked up on electrolyte water.
Starting point is 01:36:25 I drank it and I was not fine. So I went to my PCP who sent me to a neurologist. And I was, when I got, at this point, I'm in a wheelchair because like the tremors are my legs and is difficult for me, you know, you can't really walk when your legs are like shaking under you, you know. So you go to the neurologist and I can see on the man's face that he's going to say, I've never seen this before in my career. And he says just that. And he, he, in like a really hushed tone, talks to me and my mother's, if you were my son, I'd send you to such and so hospital because they're experienced with COVID and the vaccine, right?
Starting point is 01:37:09 So we go to that emergency room and they have me, they give me an expedited appointment for a movement specialist. But come to find out, like, a year or two later that the first guy, The neurologist who's I have never seen anything like this in my career in his visit notes said that he had spoken with me and my family at length about functional neurologic disorder. And if you've seen anecdotals, if you've seen the unseen crisis, you've made vaxed. If you've seen vaxed two and three, you know, like that's something that like all of us have been told us in your head of functional neurologic disorder caused by stress. and anxiety. It literally said this is being caused by, right, that's in your head.
Starting point is 01:37:58 And you said you had a similar, that with all of it going on, you're having trouble having the medical establishment admit. Oh yeah, they were, the doctors would stand right at the edge of my bed and they'd say, yeah, I believe this was the vaccine, but they wouldn't put it in writing. But like we were,
Starting point is 01:38:24 I forget where I was just recently testified at Central District Health in Idaho. And I told them, I said, you know, people say, well, how do you know you were vaccine injured? Well, it was the doctor that reported it to VERS. So it wasn't, and they were saying, well, prove it. Well, he said it. you know are you asking him to prove it right disprove it you know it wasn't me who sent uh the notice to theirs it was the doctor right and how quickly were your symptoms you said symptoms were after the vaccine within 24 hours within 24 hours and i went to work
Starting point is 01:39:14 and i got my shot at work during work wow now this is you know yeah So you get your shot, you go to work, and the next day I worked on a farm, big farm, and I was farm manager. And I go in to talk to the shop foreman, and I says, Tim, I says, hey, Tom, I says, I don't know, they give me a list of side effects. I could write a darn book about side effects I'm getting. I said, and everything I got ain't on this list. You know, they had vomiting, nausea, you know, muscle aches.
Starting point is 01:39:59 I didn't have any of that. I had, you know, like incontinence, I peed my pants, and I'm thinking, I didn't even feel it. I didn't even know, you know. and then I went to the would have been the vice president of the company I was standing in front of him and I says you know I got God dang problems man and you know he's kind of not really wanting to get involved
Starting point is 01:40:30 and he's doing his thing on his desk and I'm walking around talking to him and I said yeah I said god damn I peed my pants in front of the grandkids, you know, they were there. And I says, an ED, and he looks up and he says, Doug, that's a little bit more information than I need. And I'm thinking, well, yeah, me too, but I'm just telling you, you know, what's going on.
Starting point is 01:41:00 Amazing. And just trying to pass it off. And then after getting the vaccine at work, during work, go through the hospital, I woke up and never, I went to bed, come in the house at nine o'clock one night, like 10 days after I got the shot. I come in the house, I'd been moving pipe, sprinkler pipe, and getting ready for the water to be turned on
Starting point is 01:41:35 and I'll be irrigating. Come in the house about nine o'clock, and I told my wife that I said, man, I've been, feel like I drank poison. You know, I just didn't feel everything was no pain. I'm in no pain, just discomfort, just something ain't right, you know. And I said, I'm going to have a shower, eat, and go to bed. So come in to nine, ten o'clock, I'm in bed.
Starting point is 01:42:05 And two o'clock in the morning, four hours later, I wake up like this, paralyzed. Just like I am today. Exactly. Is it transverse myelitis? Transverse myelitis. Hemorrhidic transverse myelitis with blood clots. And the blood clot got in the spinal cord and hemorrhaged, I guess. Wow.
Starting point is 01:42:29 So. And so, I mean, like, Nick, I mean, what's so shocking about this, right? We've just, we've released the real petermarks.com. We have all of these Zoom calls, these secret Zoom calls that Breanne Dresson was involved in. And what's so shocking about this sitting right here is that they knew. They've got, she says, I have thousands of people. You know, it's not totally related, but all three of you are in wheelchairs, right? You're all struggling.
Starting point is 01:42:57 You're some form of a neurological issue, you know, whether it's a paralysis or tremors and all these things happening. And the entire time for years in these calls, he just keeps saying, we just don't see a signal. Yeah. We just don't see a signal. You know, Nikki, is your experience the same? Did you have doctors have admitted that this is what it is and you're being treated that way? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:24 Honestly, I've had multiple specialists because I've had, you know, a stomach stop work in a feeding tube and then urinary issues, a urologist, a pulmonologist. I've had all these specialties because I had multi-systemic inflammatory response. and the worst field has been neurology. And it's like all of us have symptoms, and they're all neuropathy, they're all motor issues.
Starting point is 01:43:55 But we have Guillaume Barre, we have, you know, I was diagnosed with CIDP, we've got ALS. All of these things exist and all of our symptoms cross over. So it's not black and white for any of them. And nowadays, it's like if a test doesn't spit out that it's positive, if you don't fit all the criteria, nope, it's not that. Let's throw you in the junk pile of F&D or, you know, the catch-all thing because it's not fitting a black and white diagnosis. I've had several of them suggest, you know, were you anxious? What was going on before all this?
Starting point is 01:44:31 Anxious, oh, my God. No, I wish every doctor that says that to you just should be immediately fired. I'd love to go through this country. And everyone that's seeing this case is saying, I think it's anxiety. I just, I want to label that as the stupidest human on earth. And I told you this. I told you, like, I know you're trying to not live a life in anger. I'm angry for you.
Starting point is 01:44:51 This pisses me off so bad that the story, I've watched it for years prior to the COVID vaccine, now watching what you're going through. But to sort of wrap this all up, this story is going to continue. You're all outspoken. You're all a part of this film. You mentioned that, you know, whether for your own life, when you look at younger guys like Andre, is that what's inspiring you to speak out? Yes. The way I kind of look at it for my personal self is I'm right now I'm 68 years old and I've had a very good life up until 64.
Starting point is 01:45:31 Yeah. I had a good, active, hard work in life that I was doing real good. And I wouldn't want any young person to go through what I've gone through. And through all the, up till I was working on the farm, up till 64, when I got the shot, I knew farming and ranching, that's what I knew.
Starting point is 01:46:00 Now I know more about medicine and doctors and things like that, that I didn't, that wasn't the field I wanted to go in. Right. You know, and advocating for people is just naturally the path you need to take. I have been working with quite a few doctors and Peter McCullough.
Starting point is 01:46:28 Great. Kim Biss, Sasha, I can't think of what her name is. I know you, Ladovova, are we talking? Yes, okay. Yeah. her and let's see there's Dr. Parks from our country and Laura Demre we're going working around Idaho Leslie Mnukin working with her and stuff and we're trying to advocate and what I've seen is the young people are you know and this reproductive deal I think men
Starting point is 01:47:08 Many people know somebody who's been vaccine injured, but they don't know they've been vaccine injured. You know what I mean? So when they get the conversation, like we had with some of these guys in the hotel today, just bring it up, I said, you go home and you're gonna be talking to somebody who says, oh yeah, yeah, you know, so and so's got this
Starting point is 01:47:33 or so and so had that. Well yeah, now put the two together, And one of the questions should be, did they get back COVID vaccine and when did they get it? You know? Yeah. And if I believe that every doctor should, every doctor, if a patient comes in and they say they got something. The first question they should ask is, did you get a COVID vaccine and when? And which one?
Starting point is 01:48:03 And I think they could narrow things down pretty quick. Yeah. You know, that, uh, but I've been given stuff that I shouldn't, I had REMDemisphere, a couple rounds of that, and old Peter McCullough walked past me the one day and he goes, and you're still alive. Right. That's what he said. Yeah, that's what he said. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:25 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, but I, apparently when, uh, I was in the hospital, I qualified for everything, you know, And they got right at 2 million into me in 105 days. I was in the hospital, 105 days, and right at 2 million. And it took all my money, savings and everything, over $170,000 of my own money.
Starting point is 01:48:56 So we're right in there. And it's, it ain't over. Just like these guys. over here just because it's part of what you deal with you just got punched by Andre explain to me what's happening over there just for people he has symptoms which come and go throughout the day some of them are explosive some of them are ballistic and it happens and it's a hard thing to predict there's sometimes where I can tell based on like clusters of movement are just like
Starting point is 01:49:32 the uptick of symptom intensity that something might happen. Awesome. Thank you. Yeah. But it's not a, it's not something that you can predict, is something you kind of have to respond to. And you have to have an attitude where you're focused and you don't take stuff personally when you get kicked into objects.
Starting point is 01:50:00 And I have a bit of background in martial arts, so it doesn't, It doesn't affect me mentally the way it would people who don't do anything like that. But I've had nightmares. You know, we took them to a treatment facility a few years ago and I had to wrestle him for like three hours to get an IV in. And I couldn't even stop enough to open up a bottle of water for myself. Someone else had to give it to me. And I have a really weird sense of humor.
Starting point is 01:50:32 So I kind of view things from an absurd angle and I can laugh at it. But then there are times where I might be sitting alone in my house even though I'm never off the clock and I think someone's like calling and they're not calling. Or I try and go to sleep and I, it's like he's in one of his episodes running into something or running into me. And I'm like, this isn't actually happening. It's just a thing in my brain that's just cycling over itself. But it's just what happens.
Starting point is 01:51:12 And it's part of what makes it hard to get him treatment because people can have the excuse, right, that they aren't prepared and that they don't know what to do. Like we've had a certain facility which, um, I'm. I'm not gonna mention, they promised that they were going to be able to help him and they were going to expedite his participation in a program that they had to deal with his movements and when we went there to kind of scope things out and to get a few other tests done they were understaffed the only person who was present besides myself and my mom was like a small female doctor and the floors were like linoleum, you know, I mean, just like hard, unforgiving ground.
Starting point is 01:52:08 And at the time, he was in and out of a wheelchair. He was able to walk a little bit more then. As time has progressed, he's been able to walk less. And as much as possible, we want to preserve his freedom and his ability to actually do things like a normal person. So he started off walking and all of a sudden he crashed onto the ground. And she didn't know what to do. Nobody knew what to do.
Starting point is 01:52:31 There weren't other staff. There weren't people in that wing who should have been in that wing to participate and get anything done. And I feel fear at times. He gets scared about hurting other people. It makes sense for other people to be scared too, but if you're in the caring field where like it's a normal thing to look inside of bodies and to cut people open. and tell people that they have cancer are going to die in six months, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:53:07 You should be able to deal with that, in my opinion. But it's scary, you know, we have holes in our house, and we keep having to patch because he punches holes in the wall. Oh. You know, and we went, I don't remember if it was for a hearing or if it was for a treatment, because there was the last several years have been so many things happening so much of the worst happening and so little of the good it can be hard to remember and put it all in order at active recall but um we were at a hotel and i remember again trying to preserve his freedom allow him to walk um when he can he started walking because of the nature of his symptoms if he does a repetitive movement there's going to be a period of time afterward if it reaches a certain intensity that he's going to keep doing it. And he was voluntarily. It's a part of the symptom profile.
Starting point is 01:54:13 But he started walking and he couldn't stop walking down a hallway. And for, there was a, what was the name of the bus that we went to? The CHC bus. Yeah, there's a children's. CHD, the Children's Health Defense. Thanks. Yeah, there was a children's health defense bus that we went to to go sign. and I think he did a bit of an interview.
Starting point is 01:54:35 But just because of how stressed we are, it can be hard to make sure you have all your ducks in a row. Now, we do a good job. Like right now he has his straps, wheelchair, we're all packed, everything's set. But that day, we forgot the straps. But we tried to keep him in his wheelchair, and things were fine. We did the signing at the bus, and we were going to go inside and have whatever group conversation we were having.
Starting point is 01:54:57 And as we're going up the hill, because he didn't have his straps on, his symptoms got activated for whatever reason, and he starts sprinting up this hill. So I have to let go of the wheelchair. I sprint up the hill behind him. I get around to in front of him, and I have to guide him in a way where he doesn't hurt himself. I don't remember exactly how I did it, but I was successful and I ended guiding him onto the ground. But what I found out later, because I wasn't necessarily paying attention to all that, was that there was glass.
Starting point is 01:55:29 Broken glass, like just all over the place. next to where we landed. And again, it's just like concrete and blacktop or whatever, asphalt. That's what I can really say about it. Well, look, you know, you've all dedicated, you're just, I know being here is difficult, traveling's difficult. I want to thank you for taking the time to join us. You're all a part of this incredible film that we're going to be at the screening tonight
Starting point is 01:56:00 of Followed the Silenced. Any last words, Doug, on just, you know, what you hope to accomplish with this film, what you want people to know? I would hope that people pay attention and start talking to the representatives and get some real action and help for people. You know, if we can send a person to the moon, how come we can't fix this? I agree. I mean, you know, it kind of not, is it rocket science? You know, what foot is here? I often think that I just went to bed one day and woke up this way.
Starting point is 01:56:44 Why can't I go to bed one day and wake up okay? Yeah. You know, so I just want to get the word out. Everybody should be extremely cautious and find a good, sensible doctor who's not, pushing things, you know. Nick, you were in the medical industry, right? It's very disheartening. This thing completely opened my eyes.
Starting point is 01:57:10 I believe that, you know, with every medical procedure, there are risk. And, but I thought it would be a matter of time before they came to help us, because that's what they're supposed to do. And when it was something this drastic, how could they not miss us? There's too many of us.
Starting point is 01:57:29 of us. You know, and I watched the real Peter Marks thing, you know, well, we got to check our numbers and stuff. Well, right here, we're thousands of us. These are our stories. How do you have this many people in one location and not see? We're markers. We're real people. And I think this movie is going to be huge because, you know, people get, we get hell from both. sides from, you know, from those pro and anti, both. And, you know, one says, well, you should have known better. One says, well, you know, causation, you know, it doesn't equal correlation and all this, yeah. It's, all the usual. We get it from both. And I think that this, this movie right here is, is one that will be able to display that we're real humans. We've got stories. We could
Starting point is 01:58:29 be your sister, your wife, your mother. And I think that it's going to open some doors to conversations. And I hope that it does for all parties and that we lay down these political absurdities and see us as humanity and what we're supposed to do. Andre, any last words? What you're hoping to achieve by being here today and a part of this incredible movie?
Starting point is 01:58:55 Henry David Thrill once said that government which governs best is the one that governs least. I'm not an anarchist or anything like that, but the amount of, the absurd amount of power that the government, that NGOs even have been able to exercise over American citizens, overriding their sovereignty and abusing and abridging their rights to medical freedom to medical sovereignty, and to future biological integrity. Like, I have to, like, what was it? I got into a relationship right after I got the shot and before things really started getting weird and that, she was with me for three years.
Starting point is 01:59:42 I ended up ending things because, like, one, I wasn't ready and, like, it was just, you know, it wasn't feasible. We weren't at the point where, like, you know, in sickness and in health. She didn't have that responsibility to me, and I felt like it, you know, wouldn't be fair to either of us if we're at, like, this point in our lives were, like, you know, long distance, et cetera, you know. But, like, if I ever do get into another long-term relationship, I have to consider, like, whether I need to adopt versus whether I should, like, whether I, how I put it? like it's always the option right but because of like how the spy protein works and like where it bonds and like the reproductive issues that it caused worried about perhaps yeah yeah like i don't want to
Starting point is 02:00:36 do like i've always wanted to have a you know a child children be married and i don't want to do to my child my biological trial what was done to me by the government like it's a whole another thing i was i wasn't aware that this would happen. You know, I wasn't coerced. I did have my misgivings about the, about the shop, but I wanted to, you know, do my part to make sure that my family was safe because I was out and about, you know, going to college on campus. Choose me.
Starting point is 02:01:07 But me making the choice to do this to my own flesh and blood is not something that, like, it's not something that's okay with me, you know? And that's something that I believe a lot of people are going to grapple with in like for like the next decade or so if there aren't you know innovation self ameliorate this issue so the goal for for me for the film for this interview here and thank you for having me by the way is that the government which governs best is the one that is the one that governs least we are a constitutional Republic. Power is on our hands and when and we need to remind ourselves and the people who
Starting point is 02:01:58 and the white coats the bureaucrats the big wigs that whatever power they think they have is the power that we allow them to have. So I want to put them on notice. Yeah. And I want to put the American people on notice insofar as wake up, take a look at what's going on here and, you know, pick up the reins that are yours. You know, we all drive this country in some way, shape, or form. And as a society, we have to decide where we're going to go, where we're going to push the boulder and what goals we're going to accomplish and how we're going to accomplish them. And what we're going to allow to happen to us or not, what we're going to tolerate.
Starting point is 02:02:49 This is intolerable, you know. Like, I'm already mad enough about what happened to me, but like the sheer amount of people who have been negatively affected by this, who have taken their lives because of this, whose families have been destroyed because of this, who suffer from not just poor health, but poverty, from ostracization,
Starting point is 02:03:11 from loneliness and despair because of this. And the people who have taken oath, right to preserve and to protect and preserve our Constitution to do no harm right they they have a responsibility that they have failed to fulfill and need to be any they need to be held to account we have a responsibility to ensure that they're held to account that we hold ourselves to account what was it there's I can't I don't know if this is like a folk tale or like actual history but like the saying goes like when Benjamin Franklin came out of
Starting point is 02:03:54 the Constitution said like he after he signed the Constitution he was asked what kind of government have you given us and he said a republic if you can keep it yeah we need to keep it because if we don't totalitarian to top despotism comes and with despotism comes just the lack the the the the complete overriding of our freedom, the destruction of everything this country was built on, and the violation of the human being at every level, physically, mentally, spiritually,
Starting point is 02:04:33 biologically. I have been violated. Nikki has been violated, Doug has been violated at the cellular level, at the molecular level. That is something that is just abhorrent. And the more people who are aware of this and can be sympathetic, empathetic to this, see us as people and not as radicals or conspiracy theorists. And see us as human beings and treat us as human beings, you know. Like that's the point.
Starting point is 02:05:09 There was, to finish off, I know I've said a lot, and I'm sorry for going on and on. But in during the abolition movement against the transatlantic slave trade, there was a there was a picture that I remember seeing in a book where I was very young that I was reading about it. And it was a man, a black man in chains looking up like this, whip scars on his back. And around him in the frame says, it says, am I not a man? and a brother. Are we not men and women and brothers and sisters? You know, I've been blessed to have a family that has been very supportive. You've seen how he's been taking care of me throughout this,
Starting point is 02:06:01 how he takes hits, you know, doesn't take it personally because he knows that this isn't within my control and he loves me as a brother and he treats me as a brother. If he, if the shoe were on the other foot. I do the same for him and he knows it, you know. And that's the kind of attitude that we as a country need. Like we're so divided. Remember that we're the United States of America. They were all one human race. We were all created in the image of God and are all due dignity, honor, respect, and care when we need it. Yeah. You know? So that that's what this is all about. It's not a political thing. you know, it's a human thing. We are what we've got.
Starting point is 02:06:47 We have God and we have each other. And that's just it. Well, Andre, I think people watching right now recognize that you really are a writer, you really are an author, and I think that there's a lot of people, I hope someone out there might call me and say, I want to give that kid a book deal, because I think you're designed to tell this, like no one else can. So I hope you get inspired by that Doug. I'm glad that that angel came
Starting point is 02:07:17 and saved me. Your voice is important. And I know your family loves you. And I know you're important to all the children right now that you're going to save their lives by being part of the story. I hope. One time. Yeah. You know. And I've had people come up and say, you know, thank you for speaking. And that makes you feel good. I mean, and want you to do more. You can't. I think as long as As long as I'm in this chair, I'll never be able to do enough, but I'll try to do all I can, you know. Nikki, thank you for your voice. Thank you for being here today. This is a great opportunity in this movie, I hope.
Starting point is 02:07:59 It reaches tons and tons of people because one of the main narrators in it, Brienne, she has been like a sister and a mother to us. And when we had no guidance, she has guided us and forged a path that no one has before. And I think this movie truly portrays our stories. Well, I think I just want to say one of the reasons I think this story is so important why we keep telling it is also we've got to get out of this place for these doctors that do want to treat, do want to look at this as a vaccine injury. There are many great doctors out there. their license get taken if they get you know if they see that they're talking about it we need to change and one of the huge things we're doing here at the highware and high can that we're dedicated to is i really believe there's got to be a solution here as you said it you know it shouldn't be rocket science we could get to the bottom of it if all the doctors were allowed to actually write down that this is a vaccine injury who out there's looking at it what can we do what other vaccine injuries and start you know creating an industry around this vaccine injury issue like we do for cancer and every other issue you why can't we address this? That's the pharmaceutical stranglehold, which I'm glad Robert Kennedy
Starting point is 02:09:12 Jr. now is breaking apart, and it's what we're dedicated to. But I think one of the reasons beyond all the people you're going to save by telling your story is all the doctors that are going to be released from this bondage and authoritarianism that is keeping them from doing their work. I know so many want to heal, so many want to get to the bottom of this, and they need to be able to be vocal and speak out and work together. So that is my dream. Is that a that we do figure out and that we can see you walking again and healthy. I'm gonna hold on to that prayer for all of you and I just want to thank you so much for spending your time with us this afternoon.
Starting point is 02:09:47 Thanks for having us. Thank you for having us. Right. Well, I mean, you know, everywhere, as Andre so well put it, you know, this is a Republican if we can keep it. So many of the issues around farming, our food are hanging in the balance right now, which is why I'm gonna be speaking very soon at a beautiful farm owned by Abby Rockefeller, we had a roundtable a couple of years ago. There's another one coming right up,
Starting point is 02:10:11 but this is what that moment was like. It's going to have this to be a kind of a live conversation going around the table. It's going to kind of take a life of its own. One of the issues we're going to cover is talking about food freedom. When the government gets between my lips and my throat, that's an invasion of prophecy. Mechanizing and industrializing a food system is literally killing us. Instead of feeding the world, how can the world feed itself? The biggest crime was making food cheap and claiming that we should be proud America has the cheapest food in the world Well, it has the worst food in the world chemical agriculture has destroyed our soils
Starting point is 02:10:51 We continue with this system. We're just going to get in a worse and worse state and we will have no resilience We'll have no food supply period. Maybe we have 50 harvest left if we're lucky the Chinese have a saying Plenty of food many problems no food one problem The basis of our country was formed out of that that moniker, no taxation without representation. I'm not represented by Monsanto. But right now, Monsanto is dictating where my tax dollars are going right now in the USDA.
Starting point is 02:11:24 Monsanto only had to show two out of seven studies on glyphosate to prove that it was healthy. Five showed it was unhealthy, they found two that looked, looked all right, got it through. We had the government showed up, and we were processing chickens outside the yard. They came and said, this is illegal. And the day before, knock on the door, I went up to see it,
Starting point is 02:11:47 and there was a guy standing there holding his wife in his hands. She was about 80 pounds. The doctor says if she doesn't get good meat protein, especially chicken, she's going to die. And I looked at those government agents. I told them, you can take me to jail, do whatever you want to, but she's going to get this chicken. I'm going to feed her.
Starting point is 02:12:06 The human beings that are given the credibility to serve on juries, convict people to life in prison, serving the military, but when it comes to deciding the food they want to eat, somehow they can't figure it out. Here's the problem. The big guys can't bear the existence of the little guys. That's what you're exactly about. You're exactly the fact.
Starting point is 02:12:32 When it comes to the word organic, is it more important that I buy organic at Walmart to show that larger corporate structure that organic matters? Or is it better to be at a farmer's market direct with my farmer, but no Nobody in the system is seeing that interaction, right? You put your money where you think you most wanted to. So if you go to the farmer's market, they do notice that.
Starting point is 02:12:55 They're watching it very carefully. And they're very scared. If we had a true market access for our farmers, we would have thousands and thousands of entrepreneurial farmers accessing their communities with everything from pot pie to sharkutery to, edible hot pockets. One of the things I think we need a consciousness shift because we have this idea that food should be cheaper, faster. We make it too complex for the entry-level people. They're just not even going to enter and to me
Starting point is 02:13:29 it's better that we at least see those dollars moving organic, keep it simple. Nobody can do everything but everybody can do something. Connect with a local farm, you know, get your food, get as much food as you can from a a local farm that's raising it without chemicals. Don't limit yourself to being a consumer. We're all investors. We're all citizens. We're all eaters.
Starting point is 02:13:53 We have to make direct connections again and buy our food from people like Joel and make sure that we participate and listen to people like Dave. And that we are there at the table again. This is a real honor to spend this time with you around this table. And thank you everyone else. Well, the farm food freedom event has happened again. 31st, I'm going to be there in Hudson, New York, at this beautiful farm. We're going to be having roundtables.
Starting point is 02:14:23 You can check it out, maxcane.com slash events. I'm joined right now by the CEO farmmatch.com. Max Kane, what's the importance of this event right now? I mean, when we talk about, you know, food is medicine, you've been a huge part. You healed your body through food. But just tell me about this event and what people can expect. Yeah, well, as far as what this event is about, Della, I mean, this event really speaks to the heart of all the work you guys have been doing, the amazing work at I can.
Starting point is 02:14:53 This is really about, this food freedom movement is really about, at its heart, it's about informed consent. I mean, right now we've got unprecedented things going on in the country. Just for example, Monsanto and Bear are now, and by the way, where have we seen this before? They're trying to move and get Congress to give them immunity from injuries to pesticides. There's just so much food that's going into the food system that we don't even know about. We lost country of origin. All the ingredients aren't even on the label anymore. Where our food comes from, we're so disconnected and uninformed as food eaters.
Starting point is 02:15:30 And it's time to take our power back. It's time to reconnect with local farmers and build a food system that we can trust, that we can hand off to the next generation. And it's not going to happen unless we have some of those hard conversations. And that's what this roundtable event is about. It's about having those hard conversations and talking about the difficult issues that are plaguing us in the food system.
Starting point is 02:15:52 If we don't talk about this and come up a solution, nothing's going to happen. Nothing's going to change. And, you know, it's an amazing event. Abby Rockefeller built an amazing farm there. The barn is magnificent. I mean, if nothing else, just come for the architecture. It's like this Frank Loi Wright, beautiful, amazing structure.
Starting point is 02:16:11 And we're going to be talking about good things. and how to change the world for the positive. And like I said, man, give the next generation of food system that could support them and support their health. And really, this is all about the survival of humanity. We all have to eat. This goes across all socioeconomic, religion, color, creed, political. We all have to eat. And the food we eat has, it's basically one of the biggest factors that influences our health.
Starting point is 02:16:38 And it also influences the ability to which we can perform our life. So if you're an attorney, that means being able to litigate better. If you're a sports player, it means throwing the ball farther. If you're a parent, it means being able to spend more quality time with your children. So the food we eat is really ground zero. And that's what this event is about. I'll thank you so much for taking the time to cover this. And what other questions can I answer for you before you?
Starting point is 02:17:05 Well, just really quickly, because I know you've got to run. And we've had a long, powerful, beautiful show here. But, you know, one of the things I know will come up is Abby, Rockefeller. Some people will be saying, wait a minute, is that David Rockefeller's, you know, daughter? Is she a real Rockefeller? And how are you interacting with Rockefellers? I know Abby. You know Abby even better than I do. But every powerful family like that has the wild child that just says, oh, hell, no, I'm doing something differently. But just really quickly, for people that get concerned around that issue, how would you describe Abby?
Starting point is 02:17:37 Yeah, thanks for that question. I actually get that a lot. I would describe Abby as one of my heroes. She is the oldest daughter of David Rockefeller. She is a Rockefeller and came from a family with a lot of money. She was kind of bored into that situation. But Abby is one of the most genuine, honest, trustworthy souls human beings I've ever met in my life. She is on this planet to just do amazing things. She cares about the environment. She cares about the food system. She cares about informed consent. She's just genuinely amazing person. And I'll tell you what, if you're someone out there in the world that has an opinion about the Rockefeller, specifically Abby Rockefeller, come to this event, come meet her, talk with her in person, and I guarantee you
Starting point is 02:18:22 that if you have any preconceived notions because her last name is Rockefeller, what you might think about her, you're going to be totally shocked. She'll probably be walking around barefoot in a T-shirt. I mean, you know, she obviously came into some money and she's doing great things with it, but she definitely doesn't let the money go to her head. She's doing great things with the money she gets. Max, you're doing great things with farmmatch.com. People, if you want to find a local organic farm near you that can really deliver the best products and you know where they came from and you don't want to guess whether they're covered
Starting point is 02:18:58 in all of this garbage, go to farm match.com and come up if you can in New York. It's going to be an amazing event. It's a beautiful farm in Abby Rocks. You've got to meet her. Just an amazing character that, you know, and loves sharing stories about what it was like to sort of disagree with a lot of what the family stood for. Of course, she is standing with us. She's a great supporter of the work that we do here. And I'll be speaking there.
Starting point is 02:19:22 This is one of my favorite events. It's just, it's beautiful. And lots of other great speakers are going to be up there. So I hope you can join us on May 31st. Go to, I think it's max cane.com slash events and sign up now. I can't wait see it. It's just a couple days away. It's been a while. Max, I'm looking forward to seeing you there. Yeah, looking forward to seeing you on the 31st L. All right. Good. Take care.
Starting point is 02:19:46 All right. See you then. Take care. Have a great rest of trouble. All right. Well, to close it up, I promised you all I had an announcement to make. And I think many of you recognize that I'm pretty transparent and just put it all on the table. I like to call things where they're at and really just be honest. I got into this because I left the television industry when I made VAT. And I've said to many of you, each step along the way, I feel like I'm being guided to the next right step. And sometimes I'm making decisions that I'm not even sure where they lead. Well, many of you know that in this incredible journey I've been on, I got to be the director of communications for Robert Kennedy, Jr., which was one of the great honors of my life. But it meant I was doing double duty to try and make that happen, hold that together, while this incredible team at I can, the high wire kept right?
Starting point is 02:20:37 rocking it out. We worked very hard to just, and I think we're doing the best shows we've ever done, but I was carrying all that along. And then as, you know, when Robert Kennedy Jr. joined President Trump, I started a super PAC, the MAHA Super PAC, MAHA Alliance and MAHA action to try and really promote and make commercials so that we could make sure that all those Kennedy voters went over and joined Donald Trump. I told you, I'm politically marooned. I think it's amazing. all of these characters, Tulsi Gabbard and Robert Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump, you know, all come from different places. I think something really is amazing there. And so I got to really be a part of helping then get, you know, not only Robert Kennedy Jr. confirmed,
Starting point is 02:21:18 I got to stand in the Oval Office, which was just like you can't pinch yourself enough to be standing as he put his hand on that Bible as HHS Secretary. And then through C4Maha action, I went on to make videos and really promote, make sure that he got his team confirmed, which was Dr. Mehmet Oz, Dr. Marty Macquarie, and Jay Batacharya, who we've been a huge fan of here. And so it's just been an incredible journey, but I am here to tell you that I've decided to step down from the leadership of Maha as sort of the organization, because I feel like, as I've looked and just over the last couple of weeks and discussing with some of the people
Starting point is 02:22:02 that are part of the organization, the movement and Robert Kennedy Jr., that this isn't, you know, that what I want to do and where I want to go with this movement, that I can't do all of that inside of the organization. The truth is, is it's an amazing organization, but it has limitations to what it can do.
Starting point is 02:22:20 I am designed to be mission-driven and to be one of the voices of the people, of be your voice, and be the voice of stories like we, just saw and, you know, that the organization has limitations, but this movement, the Maha movement, is limitless. And so there's so much I want to do that I see I can do as a voice here at I can. I need to be able to sue the government. Even if it's Robert Kennedy Jr., it's just how we're wired, I keep telling you, so there's a bit of a conflict of interest there that I want to remove.
Starting point is 02:22:51 I want you to know that you can trust my voice. And the only way to have the integrity in that voice is I have to be able to call balls and strikes. I have to be able to call what I like and what I don't like. And I recognize the Robert Kennedy Jr. and the team around him, they're in government. They are in the swamp and they have to play chess, as we've said, the 5D chess and all of it. But I am not a chess player. I am a truth teller. I have got to call it like I see it. And so I'm handing off the mantle to some really brilliant people that are going to carry on the Maha organization, and I want to join all those other grassroots organizations across this country and really across the world that are going to be working to make America healthy again,
Starting point is 02:23:34 but doing it from all the positions of power that we can. And so I want to, I'm telling you now because I always want my audience, you've been here with me. We have been fighting for medical freedom, vaccine, you know, truth, if you will. And I've said it. We care about the food issue. We care about chemicals in food and fluoride and all that. But at the heart of I can is this issue of vaccines, and I am going to press harder than I ever have before. We cannot let this next few years get away from us. I want my voice to be as strong and as powerful for you as it can be. And I want you to trust it.
Starting point is 02:24:10 I want you to be able to say, hey, I know Del's saying that just because he believes it, not because he's representing an organization that is connected to a government agency. So my love to Robert Kennedy Jr., my love to Dr. Marty Macquarie and Jay Batacharya and Dr. Oz, we have an amazing team there. You're going to have all my support where we can bring it. But really, I'm here. I want to be this voice inside the movement. Let's make America healthy again together. And I know that this, I'm saying this as I know right now, there's going to be reporters trying to twist this into some other conversation.
Starting point is 02:24:47 There'll be people in our movement that will start trying to, you know, you know, talk about rumors and things that are out there. You know me. I want you to remember what we've been on, what this journey is together. Nothing's changing. Everything is going to be strong. And by the way, you know, we're allowed to have our opinions, but we have the greatest opportunity right now we've ever seen
Starting point is 02:25:07 in having Robert Kennedy Jr. there. Please, you know, let's just support the things that we know are happening. We're seeing changes like they never had before. I want to get back to really standing with you so we can get rid of some of the infighting that's going on. We need to work together. Not everything's going to be perfect. We're not going to agree with everything, but what we can do is work together and make these years the most powerful that they can be to build a foundation of medical freedom of health, as I've said, where doctors can speak freely about vaccine injury. That can be an industry where we start
Starting point is 02:25:44 helping those that have been injured. And in that process, probably learn a lot more about the immune system. I want to be a bit more. build a new ecosystem for health that is about real health, about being healthy, not sick care after you've destroyed our lives. I want to get us off of this conveyor belt of the pharmaceutical industry. There's so much I want to do. And so it's with that, I'd say thank you for all the opportunities I've had with all the people I've worked with to, you know, be a part of the Kennedy campaign to launch Maha.
Starting point is 02:26:15 I love you all. It's amazing. We're going to continue to work together. but I want to be in the movement, not in an organization, and that's what's happening right now. So let's all work together. We have a lot of work to do. I love you. I'll see you next week on the High Wire.
