Let me go ahead and just sort of talk about what it's like to be attacked by the media,
to get up and speak in an event that you know.
We knew.
Look, with numbers like that, you have 40,000 people outside of the capital of the United States of America.
We have been reporting to you that every news agency gets most of its funding from pharma.
We were in the belly of the beast.
We had a stand up there.
We could see it, NBC, ABC, everyone was there.
In that black box up there, the news camera showed up.
This was something, obviously, as their ratings are falling and we're seeing in the headlines all the time, they can't not tell this story, but you know they're going to spin this story.
And I want to tell my team right now, I actually want to play the video of what I said to the press first instead of what we're going to do here.
All right.
So just, you know, so, you know, when you think about like, what is Dell Bigtree thinking before he goes out on a stage?
A lot of times it really, you know, it depends on the moment.
It depends on the audience.
I like to feel it out.
But there's sometimes, especially when I know that there's cameras that are going to be rolling.
Remember, I won an Emmy Award.
Those are my friends and family over there.
I know how they work.
I've been there.
But I always think to myself that famous moment in Braveheart, the film runs through my head
where Braveheart shows up to the first real battle, and the lords are all gathered around,
and everyone in the Scots are waiting, like, when are we going to fight here?
When are he going to fight?
And he rides out, like, what's happening here, boys?
And they're like, well, we're talking about, you know, how we should look.
like, and he just starts, you know, racing off on his horse towards the British
our mind, like, where are you going? And he says, I'm going to pick a fight. Well, that's kind of what
I felt like. I thought it was time to pick a fight with the media that has been lying to the world.
I believe that they are responsible for propaganda, and I held them accountable. And this is what
I had to say to their face. Here as a journalist, an Emmy Award winning journalist,
I want to talk to the television cameras at NBC, at MSNBC at Fox.
at CBS. And I want to say, shame on you. You had a right to tell the truth. We have an oath
that we've made, just like scientists and doctors made, to tell the truth. And instead,
you forced a lie upon the United States of America and the world. And mark my words,
we will hold Tony Fauci accountable. We will hold Deborah Brooks accountable. We will hold
John Biden accountable.
But unlike the Nuremberg trials that only tried those doctors that destroyed the lives of human beings,
we are going to come after the press that lied to the world that worked as a propaganda machine to push this.
These people here today represent the majority of the United States of America.
Your lies could not win.
You only got 60% of this nation to take the vaccine and most of them were under duress.
That means more than 50% of the nation are.
are not listening to you.
And for those of you, for those of you that say,
well, I did what I had to to protect my job,
just know that was the same argument made
by the Nazis that were tried.
And for those of you that are standing here today quietly,
I know who you are.
I know you work for the New York Times.
I know you work for the Washington Post.
And you are here trying to support us quietly.
You should have written about us.
You should have told the truth.
And I have news for you.
That job that you're protecting and these liars that you worked for that I once worked for,
I wasn't afraid to walk out.
Instead, I came out to tell the truth.
And I have news for you.
The show that I created and that I speak on every day where I share the truth to over 6 million people per episode.
That's right, 6 million, which means my audience is now bigger than yours.
And it's growing every day.
That's how you pick a fight with the press, I think.
And just to let you in, this is something we haven't really been talking about.
It's true.
We have now reached 6 million viewers are tuning in.
Of course, that's over the week.
We do one show a week.
But look at where we stack up.
The high wires at 6.7 million.
That shows you.
Rachel Maddow, MSNBC, gets 2.59 million for her show one episode.
Lawrence O'Donnell gets 1.7 million per episode.
All in with Chris Hayes gets 1.5.
Your World with Neil Cavuto at 1.4.
Anderson Cooper at 1.26 at the failing and crumbling CNN.
And at the bottom of the list that we chose,
Don Lemon gets 873,000 views per episode.
I like where we're sitting here, folks,
and that is because of you.
That is because you have shared this show
and you've made it possible.
You've gotten it out there.
Now, I'm not one to,
really brag. It's not actually my style. I like to sort of take the high road. But every once in a
while, when you want to stick it to somebody and you want to see if they can really stand in it.
And frankly, I was trying to challenge them to say, you really think you can avoid this story?
Can you avoid talking about me? Maybe I'll piss you off enough that you'll decide to attack me.
It was the strategy I used on Vaxed. And guess how it worked when it came to the high wire.
This is Chris Hayes on MSNBC.
The general gestalt of the rhetoric, as I watched this and read reports, Brandy,
it's really hyperbolic stuff about essentially Nazism,
essentially the second coming of the Holocaust,
essentially the second coming of the Third Reich.
Here's Del Bigtree calling for Nuremberg trials of Fauci and the press.
Take a listen.
Mark my words, we will hold Tony Fauci accountable.
We will hold Deborah Brooks accountable.
We will hold Joe Biden accountable.
But unlike the Nuremberg trials that only tried those doctors that destroyed the lives of human beings, we are going to come after the press.
How common is this kind of language and rhetoric in this movement you've been reporting on for a while, Brandy?
Yeah, Dal Bigtree has a show.
It comes on Thursdays online, and he bragged yesterday that millions of people watch it.
And it's just that over and over again every single week.
So, and it's on Facebook and it's on Instagram.
You know, this is just the internet sort of come to life.
And it really was like, like Kara was saying, it's like you had the weirdest bunch of people all sort of
slammed together.
It was really a conspiracy fest yesterday.
And, you know, I think it's really important to talk about how extreme these folks are.
So like, I was asked yesterday, were there any extremists there?
And I said, yes, everywhere.
They were on the stage.
And, you know, you can frame it as I just don't agree with mandates.
That doesn't really feel right to me.
But then when you share a stage with, you know, a man who says that vaccines are going to kill your kids and that proof of vaccination is an elaborate plan to enslave you and track you with Bill Gates satellites, which is what R.F. Kennedy said yesterday. And when he said that being vaccinated is worse than the face of Holocaust victims, if you share a stage with those people or if you are at a rally and you're like, I'm just against mandates, but you listen to this and clap and say yes and, you know, jail all of the reporters, that is a quick.
quick march to extremism.
Yeah, and I think, I mean, the Dell Bigtree is such a great example.
The group that he runs is called the informed consent action network, which is kind of
a kind of microcosm of the bait and switch here, which is like, well, who's against informed
consent?
We want informed consent.
What are you going to put in my body to, like, the Nuremberg trials 2.0 are coming,
and you're going to be up there, like, facing the gallows reporters and Dr.
Anthony Fauci.
And that kind of carri engine of radicalization, because, again, I saw.
some of your reporting, which was excellent in Brandeis, and like, I know people who say this kind of
stuff. Like, this is, I don't want this to be seen like there's some awful alien group of people
that, you know, have these questions or concerns or skepticism. Like, we, they're friends, loved ones.
It might be people you dated or people whose Christmas you went to. But like, the slide from that
to Nuremberg trials is what's so unnerving. Yeah. And it's all, I mean, this is all a grift.
It's such a griff.
You know, these, like, new doctors organizations that came up and want to sell you
Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, which is what the people in white coats that looked so
formal, that's what they were hawking.
RFK is hawking a book.
His group brought in $6.8 million in 2020.
They doubled during a pandemic.
They doubled the money that they brought in.
ICAN is, that's Del Big Tree's org.
It is every year it doubles its profit.
And every year he gets paid more.
I mean, it's just so obvious.
that this is a, it's a show, right?
Like, Dell gets up there, and he had to get up there
before they cut the end of the program off,
and just yelled and, you know, yelled about freedom
and about, you know, jailing everybody.
And he was walked out.
It was just such a moment,
because he was walked out by all of his security guards
and just, like, feeling good,
and people were treating him like a rock star.
And unfortunately, he does not care a wit
about the real harm that comes from vaccine hesitancy.
There's a lot of people who are part of people
lot of people who are part of this. I saw lots of people who said, you know, proud Democrat
against medical mandates. That was one sign I heard if I remember it correctly. And people
who have just found their way in this, you know, in any particular way, which to me means
there's a powerful coalition coming together right now. People who otherwise don't have anything
to do with each other are banded together on the single issue. And if the, you know,
Republicans decide to really plug into this, they could have a lot of success in the coming
election.
Oh, man, we hooked that fish, did we not?
All right, look it.
Obviously, we made them nervous.
I mean, Chris Hayes is like, and it's like he's like making accusations, like he wants
to put us on trouble, he's coming for us.
You know, this was a lot of the languishing that happened in the articles, whether it was
in New York Post.
I think we have some of these headlines.
Anti-vaccine, this is Washington Post, anti-vaccine activists, March in D.C.,
a city that mandates coronavirus vaccination to protest mandates.
A thousand protesters from across the country,
including some of the biggest names of the anti-vaccination movement,
descended on the nation's capital Sunday for a rally against vaccine mandates.
The marcher speakers include movement veterans such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Del Bictree, founder of the Anti-Baccinct Group informed consent action network.
The events was being live streamed on Bigtree's website,
the highway, which includes a prominent link that allows viewers to donate to ICANN.
Obviously, your donations are really pissing these people off.
Remember that.
If you're not doting it, but you want to piss them off, that's how you do it.
Rolling Stone.
I'm a full anti-vaxxer now, how the conspiracy theorists are winning over fresh converts.
Del Bathtry of prominent anti-vaccine podcasters spoke to the rally in Vogue,
the Nuremberg trials to threaten Dr. Anthony Fauci in the press.
A sentiment also made clear on many of the signs in the crowd.
The anti-vaccine movement has migrated from the fringes to the mainstream due to the many who joined its ranks since the pandemic began.
And now, by drilling down a vaccine mandates,
The longstanding movement is recruiting new allies, as they said in that piece.
They're really worried since for some reason this has all become political why, you know,
Republicans would, you know, believe in body autonomy and my body, my choice, when that was
originally a slogan of Democrats.
I've told you all I'm politically maroon, grew up a progressive liberal now.
I'm not sure that I trust anybody.
But it's true.
Whatever party decides to lock on to the size of the audience they were seeing in D.C.,
there could be some shifts in the voting and that has them scared.
And so what are they going to do about it?
They have to make us sound dangerous.
And that's what these, that's what's dangerous about these writers and these articles.
This is a completely peaceful event.
We had everyone speaking on the stage, I mean, literally, from the nation of Islam to, you know,
a Hasidic rabbi speaking, standing together, firefighters, police officers.
I loved how when Brandy Zerazni is trying to say that, you know, they were radicalized.
And when they asked me, you know, you know, how many extremists and they're all extremes, meanwhile,
And this is where you know that there's people on the inside.
The videos that are going up is like pictures of firefighters,
pictures of the doctors behind her.
I mean, that was how the piece was playing,
which says to me, someone inside the control room there is on our side,
and they're really giving it to Brandy Zorosny.
Instead of showing the picture,
you were supposed to show images of like the crazy homeless guy
that was near this event or whatever it was.
Instead, we're looking at firefighters.
We're looking at like American citizens of every nationality,
every creed, every religion, all standing together peacefully,
not an incident, all of the concerns, January 6th, there's going to be another one of those,
all of these issues, all of us that showed up, 40,000 of us stood together, sang together,
danced together, and it was beautiful. And so what do they do? We've got to figure out a way
to make you hate these people. And so by doing that, they started bringing up the fact that we
made some comparisons, in my case, to the Nuremberg trials. Well, why do I talk about the Nuremberg trials?
Well, to begin with, my nonprofit is called the informed consent action network.
Informed consent is the first rule of the Nuremberg Code.
What is the Nuremberg Code?
That is the code of 10 rules written by that tribunal that tried those Nazi doctors
and put them in jail and some of them were executed.
That document, those 10 rules, changed our entire perspective of medical ethics forever.
It brought in the new age of medical ethics after,
World War II and they have stood the test of time. And so that document comes from the Nuremberg trial
that comes from the trial of the Nazis, which references the Holocaust. And so when, you know,
Chris Hayes says, well, he calls himself informed consent, but then he moves into discussions about
Nuremberg trials as a bait and switch. It's not a bait and switch, Chris. It's literally the entire
purpose of my nonprofit is to make sure that we have informed consent from the Nuremberg Code.
the voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential is that rule. And it goes on to say,
no use of any force or coercion can be accepted when it comes to medical decisions, whether it's an injection or an experiment or a surgery,
nothing. And so I have to ask this, since the entire, you know, assault upon us is supposedly we're bastardizing the concept of the Holocaust.
We're not taking it seriously. In fact, Whoopi Goldberg on the view said,
about Robert Kennedy Jr.'s statements and those of us at the March, that we were
Holocaust deniers for what we had said. Really? Really? Because it seems to me the entire purpose
of remembering the Holocaust is to make sure that it never happens again. And when I referenced
the Nuremberg Code and the Nuremberg Trials, what I'm saying is there is a document that was
written in the blood and tears of those that were lost in the Holocaust called the Nuremberg Code,
designed to make sure that we never let this happen again. If that document is not the essential
trip wire designed to wake us up the moment one of these rules is broken to say,
you are on a dangerous slope towards what we know is one of the greatest atrocities of mankind.
If that document is not that tripwire and running across it does not set off that
remembrance and those discussions, then what on this earth would? We are told, or Winston Churchill said,
that if we do not remember our past, we are doomed to repeat it. Well, certainly remembering our
past doesn't simply mean we hold it and sit it on a shelf somewhere and let it grow dust. And then when
the next atrocity is over, we go, oh, look, we can compare them. They were similar. You know,
Joey Bayhard made the statement, do we have this quote from the view? This is what she said about
to defeat the mandate protesters.
They're a mass movement of crazies telling us
that putting a mask on your face
is equivalent to being trapped in an attic
for two or three years while the Nazis are running after you.
No, Joy, that's not true.
Nobody has ever compared wearing a mask
to being locked in an attic for three years
or put on a train car to a concentration camp.
But neither have I ever heard a survivor
of the concentration camp.
camps and the Holocaust say that the Holocaust started the day the first person was put on a
train car and taken to a concentration camp. That is not when we determine the beginning of the
Holocaust. It's determined long before that. Some say at the election of Hitler, others would say
it was really when the press and the government started making it okay for the mass group of people,
the majority to start using derogatory language towards this specific group of people, isolating them.
And no matter what the debate, what we know is if the end is not what represents the Holocaust,
but the totality of those milestones that went along that get us there,
then certainly referencing similarities in those early milestones,
like the breaking of the document that was born out of the trials for the Nazi doctors,
certainly if those milestones are there, are we not supposed to make the comparison?
How is it?
We are going to learn from our history well enough to avoid it happen again, to keep it from repeating if we do not nip it in the bud, if we do not root out those dangerous moments of evil as they're appearing, just as that cancer is forming, of isolation, of hatred.
We must nip it in the bud there.
That is what the reference to the Holocaust is.
The Holocaust stands as a tool, a diagnostic tool, to make sure that we capture that.
cancer before it spreads in the body of humanity.
That is where I'm coming from.
And I understand that there may be people that have misunderstood why we are making this comparison.
But there are so many milestones that have been crossed that are incredibly dangerous.
But honestly, you know, I'm just a reporter.
I have an opinion.
And it does not carry the same value as someone that has been through the Holocaust.
I admit that holy.
But know this, that I am not a Holocaust denier.
I believe more than anybody
that this is one of the greatest atrocities
of all times in humanity,
and I believe we are all capable of it
if we do not wake ourselves up
at the moment that we start isolating people.
But if we were to hear from someone from the Holocaust,
what if they said the same things?
What if they believed there was a comparison to be made?
Certainly they have the right to make that comparison.
Look at this.
People are being pushed around, denied normal interaction,
and they're just following it like sheep.
That's what happened in Germany, essentially.
All Germans were not evil.
But most of them, the vast majority, simply went along.
88 years ago, the German people elected a tyrant who took away their freedom and controlled their lives.
But the German people were obedient. Their failure to resist the tyranny resulted in the genocide of millions of people.
It begins in the public health arena.
Public health is government.
And that was what happened in Nazi Germany.
All of medicine wound up being public health.
Once you have medicine in partnership with government,
there is no individual care.
The Hippocratic oath goes out the window.
And since you have government behind you,
the doctor is not responsible.
for their actions they're working together with the state.
That's when medicine becomes weaponized.
Under the Nazis, medicine was perverted
and turned into a weapon of mass destruction.
You know, the Holocaust didn't begin without schitz.
The Holocaust staking in stages, escalating stages,
stages of humiliation, persecution,
deportation, incarceration in concentration camps, as I myself experienced, and the final destination, which was to be extermination.
This is a eugenics way of looking at the world.
Eugenics was exported from the United States to Nazi Germany.
It never, never was abandoned.
It just got its name changed.
So population control, there's the population council, there are all kinds of institutions that essentially continue to push the eugenics agenda with policies that they easily set because of the money.
As a survivor of a concentration camp, I guess I can smell a rat when I sit down.
Today, the unvaccinated are being demonized.
as spreaders of disease the way the Jews were at that time.
It was a lie then and it's a lie today.
It's a horror.
It's the kind of horror that really there should be accountability.
There should be a real investigation.
How this happened.
It's very hard for me to bear witness again to the demolition of a civilized society.
It happened, therefore it can happen again.
This is about saving humanity.
Is it too explosive or whatever to compare Nazism?
I'm sorry, this is what Nazism was about.
This is how they did things.
If we don't want to wind up as ashes, we have to resist.
I was Beirish-Rav with very potent and powerful words and images and thoughts
that we must never forget what took place here and we must recognize the similarities when they occur
so that it never happens again. Today actually is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It's the 77th
anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and for my part my family will remember this. Make sure
that we sit down and never forget what took place here. It can never happen again. I am so
dedicated to the cause of making sure that it never happens again. As so many of us are across
this nation and across the world is what brings us together so that we make sure that we do not
isolate a group. We do not use pejoratives like crazy, massive crazy people, anti-vaxious,
which is a pejorative. We do not call people names. We don't make it acceptable by the media
to make fun of people. Or say that they're radicalized because they want to.
to have control over their own bodies?
These are the warning signs.
We must adhere to them, hear them, and rise up.
Look at this window.
Translation, unvaccinated, unwanted.
That's in Germany right now, as we speak,
written on a window and it's now acceptable.
Look at this one, translation, gas,
the unvaccinated, written on a wall that isn't being cleaned up.
And I think this headline, if a patient
who refused COVID-19 vaccine was denied a heart transplant,
simply because he doesn't want to receive a vaccine where the known side effects are adverse
events to the heart, myocarditis, periocarditis, blood clots. Really? This is a guy that needs
to get this vaccine. A vaccine that's proven to not stop a single infection or transmission is
useless against Omicron. This guy is going to be let to die and accepted by the newspapers and
everyone will walk by this man and his headline saying that it's okay because he deserves it.
Really, he deserves to die because he doesn't want to get vaccinated.
Remember, we're all told that the reason we should be vaccinated is to create a cocoon
around those who are too sick to receive a vaccine.
If being on your deathbed needing a heart does not warrant you too sick to receive a vaccine,
then what does?
We are losing ourselves.
We are losing our humanity.
These are the red flags.
These are the tripwires.
They are everywhere.
This cannot be accepted.
We must stop this now.
