I want to welcome all of you out there from all around the world.
We're all, you know, grappling with different experiences post-COVID.
Is it post-COVID?
Is the emergency still on?
What's really going on?
Are we going to be free?
Are we going to get locked back down?
All of this is pushing everybody to a breaking point.
At the moment where we thought it would relax, we're finding ourselves more and more stressed out
and we just kind of want to rant about it.
Well, this week, there was a video that went viral of just such an occasion where a
A very famous superstar decided to go on a rant and express feelings that I think almost everyone that is watching the high wire has felt at one point or another.
This is Bethany Frankel letting it all hang out.
You know what's the best? Everybody's an expert on everything.
Like, don't you talk about the vaccine when you're talking about what's gone on with your health?
Oh, let me get under the covers. I'm scared because in the last couple of years, it's been so normal.
Everything's normal.
Just like locked in our houses, getting sick, chipping our teeth, having 104 fever,
then getting shots at CVS, then, you know, feeling sick and not knowing what the
is going on because our bodies are upside down.
Like, ooh, I'm so scared.
I can't say the V word.
Can I say the other V word?
Do I have one anymore?
Like, what the .
Jesus, I'll talk about whatever I want and going through a medical journey and sharing and collecting data.
and we're a lot to have conversations.
It's like politics now.
Whoever has a problem with me just sharing and talking and learning and expressing.
I'm not spreading any kind of like pop propaganda.
And we're not f***ing babies.
We understand what a vaccine is.
We understand side effects.
We understand what a flu shot is.
We could decide what we want to do.
We could decide to take the morning after pill.
We could decide to take NyQuil.
We could decide to drink vodka and smoke pot.
We get to make our own decisions.
Oh, don't talk about it.
Oh, my God, if you say something.
What are we?
We're mummies?
No brain?
Ah, shoot me, whatever you want to get me.
I'm just walking towards the light.
Like, what the fuck?
I mean, I'd like to know what's gone on.
Then we can make educated decisions.
Jesus Christ, people are so, so annoying and crazy
because the last headline they read, the last thing they read.
Are you a genius now?
Honestly, you went for, you know, 72 years.
to medical school, you know more than anybody?
Shut the fuck up.
So sick of being preached to.
I think we're all a little sick of being preached to,
especially by people that are condescending
with a complete and total lack of knowledge.
That's Bethany Franklin, for those of you
that don't know who she is.
She is a powerful business tycoon.
She also was formerly a Real Housewives of New York star.
And obviously, a very outspoken person speaks her mind.
and I think she makes some really important points there.
Now, when I was watching this and listening to this,
I had to reflect on what this show is going to be about today.
Just coming up in a little while,
we have Dr. Peter McCullough
that finds himself under incredible scrutiny and threat to his livelihood
based on the fact that he has been referencing the science
better than anyone else on this planet
has been vocal about the studies from around the world
and has a knowledge of myocarditis
and the issues going on in the hearts of people
and children better than anyone.
And now because of all of that, he is in real trouble.
We're going to talk to him about what's going on in his life.
But as I sat and pondered what we were all finding ourselves in,
this moment where what Bethany's saying is so important,
she's not allowed to talk about it.
She's not allowed to talk about what.
Well, there appears to be some health issues
that are going on with her.
Now, I can't speculate as to who triggered her into this conversation
or whether or not we get the sense that perhaps she got the vaccine that has something to do with it,
but she wants to talk about vaccines isn't being allowed to,
wants to talk about what sounds like an autoimmune disease.
What she does share we see in this post is this.
I've been battling what appears to be some sort of autoimmune issue,
or maybe it's inflammatory, but it's histamine related.
It's all very confusing.
I've always had low blood pressure, but it is more recently chronically dangerously low.
This affects my energy, my equilibrium, how I handle coming off of sleep, and requires IVs and intense hydration.
My body doesn't retain water, so I require a lot of salt to stay hydrated.
When I say I'm thirsty as blank, I'm not kidding.
Apparently, and she does go on to reference a moment where she has an allergy to fish,
and I think on the show had fish and her blood pressure dropped really low because of that allergic reaction.
And what she's saying is she's living in this constant space now.
I think that these are just, I mean, obviously we've shared so many stories of vaccine injury
and all the things that can happen.
But it is true.
I mean, here we live in a world now.
For the first time ever, we watched our government mandate a product that has still not been
through a proper full safety trial.
We destroyed the placebo group.
We've talked so much about that.
And so we're left to a population that.
is receiving and being treated as a, you know, as a sort of a test group or a clinical trial,
even though we're not in a trial. And so as we talk to each other about what, you know,
are you feeling the, you're having the symptoms that I'm having, I know so many people are
having this conversation, so many people writing in the show. Now, oh, we're not allowed to talk
about it. No, we can't talk about it because, no, it's perfectly safe. There's no study that
ever said this was perfectly safe. And now that we're the test subjects, aren't we allowed to
talk about what's happening to us. I mean, all of this, you know, really led me to thinking
how oppressive this world is becoming and how scary it is and how much it's starting to
feel like we are living in a dystopian novel. I've referenced this many times, but now this
week I think it's really important as we're going into Thanksgiving week, I have some
required reading for you. I've been reflecting, listening to Bethany's video on 1984.
this story of a dystopian future where people are not allowed to speak their truth,
and the truth is turned on its head.
In fact, it's the reverse of everything they're saying.
Here's a trailer for those of you that maybe never read the book or saw the movie.
Take a look at this.
Casp your hands behind your heads.
Surrounded.
Courage, strength, and use are satisfied us.
There are thought criminals.
30 to 40 group. Take your places, please.
Several plus good this.
I don't think there's a single piece of meat in this steel.
You know this. We're watching that trailer. We all kind of got a kick out of the fact that he says,
I don't think there's a single piece of meat in this stew. I mean, we're talking about nailing it to the wall all the way at all the topics we're covering here on the high wire.
But it's this dystopian concept of a world where there's a world where there's a world.
war always going on that we hear about, but we're never really in contact with it. It makes me think
about sort of this war on a virus that has got us all locked up and in taking away so many of our
rights. But for those of you that, you know, are unaware of this book, or maybe it's been a long
time since you revisited. At the center of this story are the ministries that run everything,
and the most important one being the Ministry of Truth, which is where the lead character
ends up working. And just there's a synopsis on this website that we're,
we found out that I thought did a pretty good job.
The Ministry of Truth, like the other three ministries,
has an ironic name.
It purports to be focused on the pursuit of truth
when in fact the ministry is concerned
with erasing the truth of the past and present
and replacing it with whatever the party deems correct.
Those in charge of the ministry decide what truth is.
I couldn't describe our current leadership
in the United States of America any better.
They are involved in propaganda like we've never seen it.
The real truth is under attack, and this false truth is being put in its place.
Here's an excerpt from the book describing the Ministry of Truth that I think is very poignant.
The Ministry of Truth was startingly different from any other object in sight.
It was an enormous pyramidal structure of glittering white concrete soaring up, terraced after terrace,
300 meters into the air.
From where Winston stood, that's the lead character.
it was just possible to read, picked out on its white face and elegant lettering the three slogans of the party. Remember, it's all about reverse of what's true. War is peace. Freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength. Just look at those for a moment. We're involved in a war in the Ukraine right now and being told it's for the peace of the world. Freedom is slavery. We have Biden saying,
to us this is not about freedom.
This is not about your freedom or your personal rights
as he mandated the vaccine upon us.
This is the only way we get to freedom.
And this authoritarian control we're being talked about,
and ignorance is strength.
How many times have you seen people reference
those of us that read the science on the vaccine,
that read all of the EUA, which we provided
when you were watching the high wire?
You got to read how this product got an emergency use authorization.
We read you trial data.
We've sued to get the trial data,
and yet the media keeps saying
that those people that are reading the science
are the stupid ones,
and the smart people are those who trust the experts
that are being paraded across the television,
otherwise known as the main part of the Ministry of Truth in 1984.
Trust the science means trust what the television is telling you.
Don't trust yourself and do not read.
We have turned ignorance into strength.
Readers are a danger to society, believers in faith from an authoritarian figure.
You are what makes the world great.
We're going to get into a lot of the details that are shockingly similar to what is taking place in Orwell's 1984.
But I just want to say this, that, you know, as we sit in this moment, and for anyone that wants and then, look, we all want to go back to sleep.
We all want to take that blue pill again and say, hey, COVID's behind us.
But guess what?
Our administration isn't letting COVID be behind us, continues to keep re-upping the emergency.
Why?
Is that the war that's always going on that we have no control over,
that allows them to continue to have authoritarian dictatorship and control over our lives?
Why do they want that?
You've got to ask yourself.
And mostly, what I want to say is now more than ever,
When you see the things we're going to discuss today, we need to wake up.
We need to stay awake and we need to wake up everyone we know.
I've said it before.
We won the battle when it came to COVID, but there is much more to come.
And trust me, they're working on it as we speak.
