Christian is a superior student of reality. I found his essays on line, made him my friend, and visited him in Florida. He does health coaching and also has a project to teach people how to survive if our “grid” breaks down due to interference from psychopathic globalists. He divides our problems into six parts. Today, we discussed two of these, food and money.THIS is the essay that originally attracted me to Christian’s work. I abridged and simplified it for a Cassandra’s Memochapter, The Bankers Eat Their Lunch and Yours as Well. You can download the book HERE. Christian’s websites are:https://www.truewholehuman.com https://www.deconstructingconventional.comFor information about self-sustaining farming and animal raising operations see https://polyfacefarms.com. Christian has visited the farm twice and I visited once. It is a two hours drive outside Washington, DC.Support the show

IntroductionThe most frequent question I get asked is: “How did you end up doing this?”Most people can’t imagine why or how someone would become a huge champion of fossil fuels, of all things.And growing up, I never imagined I would devote my life to this cause.So, for those of you who are interested, here’s what happened.Part 1: Deciding to become a practical philosopherSometimes people assume that I became a fossil fuel champion due to some combination of 1) fossil fuel industry money and 2) my personal background—e.g., my family was involved in fossil fuels, or I grew up in some pro-fossil fuel area.Both couldn’t be more wrong.I became a fossil fuel champion before I even knew anyone in the industry, let alone had a financial connection.I had no family connection to fossil fuels.And I grew up in a liberal area, Chevy Chase, MD, that had no connection to fossil fuels.The key to understanding why I became a fossil fuel champion is a decision I made when I was a 19-year-old computer science major at Duke University: to become a philosopher—specifically, a practical philosopher.Many think of philosophy as an impractical subject.But at its core, philosophy is the most practical subject, because it studies the fundamental ideas that guide all our thinking and action.Different philosophical ideas drive hugely different outcomes.The practicality of philosophy made me fall in love with the field.I decided to become a practical philosopher—using my understanding of philosophical thinking methods, assumptions, and values to help people think more clearly about complex issues.Because I wanted to become a practical philosopher and get good as fast as possible, I made another controversial decision: to leave academia and not pursue a PhD—because I knew that I could develop my abilities much faster via self-directed learning and practical experience.On several occasions in college I received physical threats for expressing my views. I decided that I would at some point learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I eventually got my black belt in 2014. BJJ has kept me safe a number of times by helping me deescalate threatening situations.For the rest, click HERE.Support the show

Because we face a false government, we must elevate our skepticism further.And each man stands with his face in the light. Of his own drawn sword, ready to do what a hero can. —Elizabeth Barrett BrowningAlthough we can rarely be sure for individual cases, powerful evidence indicts many of the “Medical Freedom Movement” leaders as undercover agents for the globalists. I sometimes rationalize the situation by thinking many of them do more good than harm. But we are in an information war, and the most sophisticated propagandists in history have developed the strategies we face. Those of us who are awake see the gaslighting and know the deceptions as “limited hangouts,” “false flags,” or “controlled opposition.” A limited hangout or partial hangout is an espionage tactic. Wiki:According to former special assistant to the Deputy Director of the CIA Victor Marchetti, a limited hangout is "spy jargon for a favorite and frequently used gimmick of the clandestine professionals. When their veil of secrecy is shredded, and they can no longer rely on a phony cover story to misinform the public, they resort to admitting, sometimes even volunteering, some of the truth while still managing to withhold the key and damaging facts in the case. The public, however, is usually so intrigued by the new information that it never thinks to pursue the matter further."[1][2] While used by the CIA and other intelligence organizations, the tactic has become popularized in the corporate and political spheres.[3]… It has also been described as the release of a package of sensitive information mixed with discoverable falsehoods in hopes that discovery of the falsity of part will lead to the entire package being considered false,[8] and as the release of a package with a core of falsehoods wrapped in secret but verifiable information in hopes that verification of the wrapping will reinforce the believability of the false core.[9]We cannot read minds, and an insider reminded me that the behavior we are seeing may be just narcissism or cowardice. Others are unwitting, and some make money on their media platforms. Nesta Webster wrote in her book World Revolution: "The art… lay in enlisting dupes as well as adepts, and by encouraging the dreams of honest visionaries or the schemes of fanatics, by flattering the vanity of ambitious egotists, by working on unbalanced brains, or by playing on such passions as greed and power, to make men of totally divergent aims serve the secret purpose of the sect…” As the truth about current events inevitably percolates to the general public, the controlled opposition must tell a higher percentage of facts to retain credibility. But after they gain trust and prominence, they wait for the right moment to misdirect, damage those around them, or warp public perceptions. Go HERE for the rest. Support the show

Paul Thomas, MD, has fought a one man war against the childhood vaccines for a decade. More than 14,000 of his patients have not had all the childhood vaccines, although fewer than 800 had none. When he hired a statistician to study them, the man walked out of his cubicle after two days and called Paul over. The practice showed conclusive proof that vaccines massively increase autism, psych diagnoses, office visits, and all kinds of infections and inflammatory diseases. His completely unvaccinated patients were the healthiest children in his practice.Paul describes the blowback he experienced from the big-Pharma-influenced Oregon medical board. One source reported, “After publishing the most significant real-world, peer-reviewed study showing data, over time, that children receiving fewer vaccines were healthier than those following the CDC vaccine schedule, the Oregon Medical Board (OMB), emergently and without filing charges, took his license. This emergency suspension resulted in Dr. Paul losing not only his license but all health plan contracts, hospital privileges, board certifications, and his ability to practice medicine and make a living for this last year.” Paul finally jettisoned his medical license at about the time of this interview. This gives him the power to say what he believes in the future. Our wide-ranging conversation included: How he was smeared by idiot journalists who DFR (don’t freaking read). They claimed it was his fault that a kid who he had never seen developed tetanus.How he gradually became aware of many “controversies” in medical care that make so much money for the industry.All about his book, The Vaccine-Friendly Plan, which he wrote before he fully understood how bad vaccines were. He now says that childhood vaccinations all have overwhelmingly unhealthy effects.How mercury was recognized as toxic and banned except for multi-dose flu vaccine. I did not get a chance to discuss the Cochrane Reviews about the flu vax, which I believe says it is useless and toxic. How to rid your mouth of mercury amalgams by going to a “biological” dentist. We discussed mercury consumption from fish. How aluminum was another seriously toxic substance that we should never use, either orally, by injection, or on the skin surface (deodorants). How the Hepatitis B vaccine, which contains aluminum, started being used for infants about the time mercury was taken off the market in the early 2000s. How it is supposedly justified for preventing this sexually transmitted disease, which is insane for newborns.How Tylenol should be taken off the market because it depletes an important anti-oxidant, NAC. How aspirin is safer but has been smeared with an association to a serious condition called Reye’s Syndrome.Discussion about magnesium deficiency, how to take it orally, or by putting it in your bath or on your skin.Why SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) is related to SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome), and how both are made-up diagnoses that were created to disguise vaccine injuries. I told Dr. Thomas how I convince people that childhood vaccines cause autism. I say that there are no studies of vaccine effectiveness—none—but there are 10,000 kids in the US who fell down after getting a vaccine, start banging their heads, and never spoke again. Paul said more than 95 percent of these had a vaccine within a week, and he corrected me—this happens to 10,000 kids a year. To read the rest, see HERE.Support the show

The big medical lie – the medical system follows the Hippocratic Oath – DO NO HARM.  We’ve been programmed to believe the system cares about the individual.The Hippocratic Oath has been shredded by the shroud of secrecy, pay-for-play, and immunity from liability.  We are doing our best to lift the veil and provide the public with informed consent as to what’s truly happening.  Grace’s death has lit a fire that has turned into a duty; Robert’s hospital rescue has added gas to the fire.Fact… hospitals have been tied to the government for their profitability for years – don’t follow protocols, don’t get paid.  The hospitals have been technically incentivized for terrible health care for decades because they have to follow Medicare guidelines which are controlled by big pharma.  Hospitals have practical immunity from liability because State laws provide little incentive for attorneys to litigate medical malpractice cases.  Medical “malpractice” was the third leading cause of death in the U.S., even before COVID!  Secrecy has been provided by programming the medical personnel to bow to protocols and society to bow to the medical personnel, falsely creating an underlying trust in a medical system that has become an arm of the government decades ago, under the radar screen.With COVID, the hospitals received bonuses for following NIH guidelines, including the use of Remdesivir and ventilators.  Furthermore, they received direct immunity from liability under the PREP Act, which is still in place today because of the Public Health Emergency extension on October 13, 2022.  Robert was told by his doctor, “You have COVID, but we have an antiviral that will have you better in three days; most of my patients turn around in two days.”  What was the antiviral?  Remdesivir.  Remdesivir has a kill rate of 75% with three doses or more.  Robert had been given his third dose (technically his sixth dosage, because the doctor doubled the dosage he should have received for his 40 pound body weight).  Robert has Spinal Muscular Atrophy, so was the perfect disabled candidate for the death squad.  God helped us physically remove Robert from the hospital on November 5, 2022, and he is alive.  Grace did not die in vain! According to research by the TN Liberty Network (1), the hospital that murdered Grace received over $20,000 related to the causes of death listed on Grace’s death certificate.  Secrecy was ratcheted up by direct propaganda spreading a false narrative and not allowing family members in hospital rooms because of ‘COVID policy.’  COVID death reimbursements ($9,000) given to families adds to the drama, making it appear that the murderer is your friend.  We didn’t take their dirty money.Today, many are cutting staff and departments because the COVID money is drying up and people are afraid to go to hospitals (2).  This is the perfect setup for ushering in euthanasia incentives, furthering the pay for play rationing of “health” care.  The desensitizing of euthanasia (3)(4) is already happening – look at Canada’s MAID (Medical Assistance In Dying) program.  In the U.K., British Nursing Alliance’s Kate Shemirani has pioneered research showing 2000 people must be euthanized every day for the U.K.  hospitals to break even! (5) She has even connected the dots relative to stock price increases for companies who supply end-of-life medications!  “A Good Death” is the U.K. standard of care (6).  What about the U.S.?Implementation of Health Care Cost Reduction MeasuresFor more, see HERE.Support the show

Catherine Austin Fitts originally freaked me out, but I now follow her like a Deadhead going to Grateful Dead concerts. Her Solari.com is for people who can either tolerate a conversion by blowtorch or who already understand the basics. She told us the bottom line about Malone, Desmet, and Breggin HERE (I downloaded and copied this podcast above). Her view is that Malone is sincere but has a ridiculously thin skin that would make his planned entry into politics inadvisable. I heavily recommend that you listen to this podcast (30 minutes; less if you speed it up). Other links about the lawsuit are THIS one on Breggin.com and my posts HERE and HERE. An exhaustive case against Malone is HERE or HERE. Look at it all and decide for yourself.Malone's actions created a conflict that hurts our movement. Ginger and Peter Breggin are some of the most courageous and self-sacrificing people I have ever met. To help them with the lawsuit, please donate to their legal defense here: givesendgo.com/Breggin. I did. If you need a recap, recall that Robert Malone did a seminal interview with Rogan (# 1757). But after Malone sued Peter Breggin and other freedom movement people, I have viewed him with skepticism. Breggin observed that Malone and a psychologist named Desmet blame the worldwide disasters on a psychological angst they label "mass formation psychosis." Breggin believes this takes responsibility away from the global predators. He is also concerned that the psychosis tag could mean that people concerned about events might be labelled crazy, and in today's insane era, they might be given toxic psych meds.Next, Alex Epstein. I covered his “climate denial” work in prior posts and Cassandra’s Memo. Government regulation and protesters cripple US nuclear power, and no new nuclear plants have been put into service here since the 1970s. The industry is scalable, and it is cheap without this burden. Small reactors could be brought on line in just a few years.Nuclear power plants produce so much energy—they operate over 90 percent of the time—that they pay back their construction costs in the first six (6) weeks that they are up and running. THIS fantastic podcast by “Doomberg” on the What Bitcoin Didpodcast by Peter McCormack is the easiest path to understanding it. He also describes the political environment that hobbles nuclear energy worldwide and provides a comprehensive summary about alternative energy.Support the show

He's an American playwright living in Germany and one of the most astute observers we have.The Mother of All Limited HangoutsCJ HOPKINS (narrated by Robert Yoho)JAN 11The Mother of All Limited Hangouts has begun. Yes, I’m talking about the “Covid Twitter Files,” which are finally being released to the public, in almost textbook limited-hangout fashion. I’ll get into that in just a minute, but first, let’s review what a “limited hangout” is, for those who are not familiar with the term.The way a limited hangout works is, if you’re an intelligence agency, or a global corporation, or a government, or a non-governmental organization, and you have been doing things you need to hide from the public, and those things are starting to come to light such that you can’t just deny that you are doing them anymore, what you do is, you release a limited part of the story (i.e., the story of whatever it is you’re doing) to distract people’s attention from the rest of the story. The part you release is the “limited hangout.” It’s not a lie. It’s just not the whole story. You “hang it out” so that it will become the whole story, and thus stop people from pursuing the whole story.Victor Marchetti, a former special assistant to the Deputy Director of the CIA who went on to become a critic of the Intelligence Community, described the tactic this way in 1978 …“… a favorite and frequently used gimmick of clandestine professionals. When their veil of secrecy is shredded and they can no longer rely on a phony cover story to misinform the public, they resort to admitting, sometimes even volunteering, some of the truth while still managing to withhold the key and damaging facts in the case. The public, however, is usually so intrigued by the new information that it never thinks to pursue the matter further.”Yoho note:The related phrase "modified limited hangout” was coined during a discussion between Nixon and his lieutenants:PRESIDENT: You think, you think we want to, want to go this route now? And the – let it hang out, so to speak?DEAN: Well, it's, it isn't really that –HALDEMAN: It's a limited hang out.DEAN: It's a limited hang out.EHRLICHMAN: It's a modified limited hang out.PRESIDENT: Well, it's only the questions of the thing hanging out publicly or privately.They were discussing Dean writing a report distorting the facts of the Watergate burglary.All right, so, you’re probably asking, if the “Covid Twitter Files” are a limited hangout, what’s the whole story that they’re distracting us from?Let me try to refresh your memory.In March and April of 2020, in the course of roughly five to six weeks, the majority of societies throughout the world were transformed into pathologized-totalitarian police states.

You need to get to know the inspirational Mr. Mack. He formed the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA) to uphold the Constitution. He convincingly argues that the thousands of elected sheriffs, one from each county in the US, can keep us safe from the federal looting we are witnessing. They have a law enforcement structure parallel to the police and highway patrol and have sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution. Mack says you must work with your Sheriff and support them.All the Constitutional Amendments are being attacked, and all but the Second are now severely compromised. To catch up with that, listen to RFK’s moving speech HERE or HERE (two links to the same thing). He said:And one of the things that I discovered during this process is what’s happening now is this lockstep imposition of totalitarian controls — not just in America, but in every one of the liberal democracies in the world, and all of the other countries in the world.China moved into Hong Kong and banned the last democratic newspaper. Everywhere in the world, we see democracy and constitutional rights disappearing. And it all happened at once, as if it was planned.Our tattered Constitution is still the most potent structure standing in the way. I listened to Marcela interview the Sheriff HERE and decided to do the same. Mercola was brilliant as usual and did a better job, but (just maybe) I have a better podcasting voice... Mr. Mack explains the Constitutional legal structures that should protect us and how the Sheriffs are working together to help enforce them. He also tells the story about how he was a plaintiff in the case that destroyed the Brady handgun bill. The grounds for the win were that Congress had violated the Constitution by directing state officers to execute Federal law. The Supreme Court ruled this unconstitutional, and Mack has been working ever since to protect our rights. I am going to the CSPOA national meeting this year and will report. Their position statements follow:The County SheriffAmerica needs to make a strong turn around to get back on the freedom track laid for us by our Founders.  We believe it can’t be done from the top down, due to many factors, not the least of which is corruption and entrenched bureaucracies in high places.  We must, and we can, accomplish this turn- around starting locally at the county level, and lower.  The office of county sheriff is the last hope of making this happen, and we are witnessing great deeds of protection, service, and interposition across America by courageous sheriffs who only want to serve the people who elected them.ImmigrationAmerica has always welcomed immigrants to our shores.    When we were truly a “melting pot”, our culture and prosperity was strengthened because of immigration.  Today things are much different.  We are a nation of laws, and our immigration laws are not being enforced.  Further, immigrants are not assimilating into our culture as they once did.  This results in devastating consequences culturally and economically.  read the rest at: https://robertyoho.substack.com/p/sheriff-mack-is-changing-america#detailsSupport the show

Obesity is a true pandemic and one of the worst health disasters of our lifetime. The best treatment is unknown. Diets that are appropriate for thin people do not help the obese—advice like “eat a moderate diet” and “don’t eat between meals” is useless for them. Intermittent fasting and the Adkin’s-type diets work but require weeks to months of adjustment and need to be continued indefinitely.Agriculture is a great gift that is saving the world. Farm productivity has exploded in the last 50 years. Worldwide famine deaths have crashed. The chart below is from Steven Pinker’s phenomenal Enlightenment Now (2018):Hybrid crops and mechanization have driven up corn yields. There were 20 bushels per acre in 1980, but by 2019 this increased to 160. Other crops show similar trends.Other advances have paralleled and were likely the result of abundant food. Global literacy was 55 percent in 1950 and rose by 5 percent a decade after that. It is now 86percent. No rational person—outside of an oddball billionaire or two—still worries about the “population bomb.” The number of people in the world is projected to be 9.7 billion by 2064, but this will decline to 8.8 billion by 2100.These trends debunk the media’s disaster-mongering. But against this optimistic tide, we have obesity. The daily calories food producers supplied to US citizens rose from 2900 per person in 1961 to 3700 today. Adult caloric requirements range from 2000 for sedentary women to about 3000 for a few active men. Big Food must either export the excess or force-fed it to us using marketing. In 1980, 15 percent of us were obese, but this number is now a third. Overweight people are another third (CDC).Authorities have recommended low-fat diets for forty years. “Saturated” animal fats increase blood levels of “bad” cholesterol (LDL), which was assumed to be evidence that a high-fat diet caused heart disease. So in 1985, the Surgeon General’s Report on Nutrition and Health recommended dietary fat restriction. When the Food Pyramid came out in 1992, these guidelines went mainstream. Later versions were promoted in 2005 and 2011. It all sounded sensible—the government was trying to help. What could go wrong?Our obesity began about the same time as the Food Pyramids promoted low-fat and low animal fat diets. The for-profit food companies helped market these ideas, peddling cheap manufactured fats and processed sugar under “low fat and cholesterol” labels. The graph below shows that how this correlated with the development of our obesity.Although the consensus is not complete, powerful evidence has now developed that we eat too little fat, and that saturated animal fats are safe. (continued in Butchered by "Healthcare."Support the show

Surviving HealthcareDashboardDEC 24, 2022 • 1HR 9M183. NATURAL CURES FOR CANCER AND THE CASE FOR VEGAN DIETS WITH DR. NICK BRANDYThis is Part 1 of three posts about diet. Part 2 presents the conclusions I developed in Hormone Secrets, and Part 3 is the latest from Dr. Mercola about balanced approaches. Five years ago, my old friend Nick Brandy contracted a blood cancer called "multiple myeloma." Since his diagnosis, he has become an expert on natural cancer treatments and is now free of disease. He advocates exercise, supplements, stress reduction, and a vegan lifestyle. For more information about avoiding eating animals, see the massive website nutritionfacts.org. My ideas are somewhat different, but I thought you would benefit from this second opinion and enjoy our dialog. If you care about what I think, wait for the next episode.He gave me the following for show notes. Dr. Dominic Brandy is the Founder of “Natural Insights Into Cancer”. He has been apracticing physician for 42 years and ran a plastic surgery/medspa/anti-agingpractice. He published 76 peer-reviewed medical articles and nine textbook chapters. He also wrote many consumer articles and two popular books and has given over 200 lectures at international medical meetings.After his diagnosis five years ago, he got his life and spiritual priorities in order. He says, "We all know we are going to die, but when it's right there in front of your face, it's a lot different." He also started to study. Dr. Brandy had some advantages over the rest of us: medical school and then a lifelong history of reading and learning about diet, exercise, and supplements and their relationship to good health."Natural Insights into Cancer" is Dr. Brandy's ongoing project to share with you what he has learned about natural approaches to this dreaded disease. He directed his clinic’s anti-aging division for the past 25 years, so he had a background in health and nutrition before his diagnosis.He shares his knowledge through his website naturalinsightsintocancer.com, hisInstagram site @cancerveggiedoc, his Facebook page Dominic Brandy, and his Youtube channel @cancerveggiedoc. He offers virtual consultations and 24/7 cancer coaching on his website. He is a sought-after speaker.Dr. Brandy is also the author of Beat Back Cancer Naturally. Thisbook includes five natural and plant-based ways to prevent, surviveand thrive with cancer. It is available in paperback, audio or Kindle on Amazon or from naturalinsightsintocancer.com.Reader praise"Everyone knows diet and exercise are important, but this site has shown me the 'WHY' behind it all.
