The World is a Stage, Seeing Through the Script
Monday Apr 15, 2024
Monday Apr 15, 2024
In “As You Like It” by William Shakespeare, there are famous words recited that remind us that what we see may not be all that it seems. “All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players.” In this monologue the character Jaques takes us through the stages of life. Since the advent of television the stage has been set for entertainment and infotainment. In the events of Iran and Iraq, I could not help but notice the theater on display over the weekend.
The Biden administration and senior intelligence officials have been warning that Iran would attack within 48 hours. That warning went without action for a week. Then by this weekend our naval forces moved closer to the coast to respond to what was deemed, an imminent launch against Israel. Hours before the Iranian offensive ABC News reported there were going to be 400 to 500 drones and missiles launched at Israel by 12:30am. Air space was closed throughout the Middle East.
The specifics of the attack and the ability to maneuver seem to be scripted. Even the Biden administration acknowledged that Israel came out unscathed, as they successfully stopped 99% of the Iranian barrage thrown at Israel. There were no reported casualties as of this reporting. Hollywood movies and suspense television seldom produces results this successful.
Immediately the mainstream media and the alternative media began pushing a narrative of World War III being imminent. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) was clairvoyant. She called for the stern attack of Iran for their actions against Israel before the attack was even launched. Looking into her campaign finances on Open Secrets, her top donor over the past five years was “American Israel Public Affairs Committee.” The lobbyist have been hard at work to manufacture the result they seek.
Social media influencers joined in on the ruse as they posted photos and videos of destruction. Eagle-eyed viewers were quick to point out the recycled footage on CNN and on many other accounts. Most footage was not from Israel. The “players” took to the stage, and many remained unaware of what they were watching.
Conflict is not healthy anywhere in the world. It is important that we calmly assess truth and ask questions. How can the Biden administration reconcile the $6 billion released to Iran with the attacks. The USA is ironically funding all sides of the war and your elected officials are becoming fatter by the day. Enjoy the show!

Stories Most Missed During Week
Friday Apr 12, 2024
Friday Apr 12, 2024
The beginning of the week began with a celestial vision in the sky above as millions paused to witness the eclipse over much of America. By the end of the week news confirmed what many have speculated for the past year about the sky above, solar geoengineering is active. According to multiple news organizations the experimental procedure of launching salt crystals into the atmosphere had been hidden from the public to avoid backlash. Researchers at University of Washington were quoted by Scientific American as being interested in discussing how to effectively ad ethically implement the experiments that could harm communities and life below.
Listening to Representative Sheila Jackson Lee speak about the moon is terrifying. Acknowledging that representatives like Ms. Lee can both graduate from Yale and also be complete morons is not a good look for those hoping our representatives can push back against solar geoengineering. Perhaps the only thing worse than her moon misinformation is the stories out of NOAA that show weather centers are not online, but continue to report temperature abnormalities that are appearing in their climate data.
The Federal Reserve and the CIA both were caught by undercover journalism tactics this week. James O’Keefe released a video exposing a Federal Reserve speech writer who claimed that Powell took actions to hurt Trump. This story was a good case for Ending the Fed. And the CIA was exposed by a contractor who claimed they went after individuals civilly to hurt them in their pockets when they could not find a criminal charge. It’s becoming clear that there is a problem with influence for agendas throughout social media and now perhaps within our federal systems.
The earthquakes continue in New Jersey as over eighty aftershocks have struck the region over the past week. Could the area be experiencing a shift on the Ramapo plate? This is the most active an east coast fault has been in decades.
In an interview this week, the BBC gets complete destroyed by the President of Guyana over their oil field discovery. And in another interview RFK Jr. took to the Hodgetwins podcast and discussed who killed his Uncle. This explosive interview connects the murder of JFK to some individuals still in American politics.

Denial of Reality by the Far Left
Tuesday Apr 09, 2024
Tuesday Apr 09, 2024
In a Florida courtroom yesterday, Aimee Harris was sentenced to one month in jail with three months home confinement for stealing and selling Ashley Biden’s personal diary. Over four years ago the diary was taken from a residence in Delray Beach, Florida, and shopped to the Trump campaign and Project Veritas. Democrats dismissed the diary as a figment of imagination, a farcical political hit document meant to disrupt the election. The denial of reality regarding Hunter’s laptop and Ashley’s diary is creating a divide. Society is unable to converse with reason with those living in delusion.
The diary has entries that were published several years ago that raised concerns about the President’s daughter and whether she was a victim of sexual abuse by her own family and friends. Mainstream news covered up this story in shocking fashion and called it a fabrication. With the sentencing of Harris, Ashley Biden and the Biden family can no longer deny the diaries authenticity.
The reason this matters is because there are many trying to divide our nation. Influencers and mainstream media runs headlines to disrupt your happiness and keep you tuning in. Even the alternative mainstream media has begun to use fear and division to monetize your views into their wallets. The false narratives people repeat because of their inability to see outside of themselves and their “trusted news” sites, further misunderstanding and reinforce lies.
This is likely why many American’s are no longer shaming and pushing back against socialism and communism. Eighty years ago our country investigated, arrested, and shamed those that were looking to bring communism into the United States. Today, Senators are elected as socialist democrats, and there are official parties for communist and socialist to join. They have been brainwashed into a lie, and they are redefining their message to infiltrate the most precious document in our country, the Constitution.
Citizens who want property rights and a free society must put communism and socialism back where they came. There is no room for innovation, freedom, property rights, and competition in the society the far-left is envisioning. Failure to educate and push back now will be complacency in their success later.

The Eclipse Should Bring Unity To Humans and Death to Our Fears
Monday Apr 08, 2024
Monday Apr 08, 2024
The indigenous cultures believe that the eclipse is a sacred experience to pray and focus on the sun and moon in a cycle of death. The solar eclipse represents death and renewal. Headlines leading up to today’s event were a mixture of fear and spectacle. There was an exceptionalism assigned because the continental United States would be witnessing this event. An ordinary regular event that occurs in 18 month intervals was marketed as a once in a lifetime experience.
Eyes will be skyward to our star today while humanity takes a break from fighting and division. People will gather outside to witness nature and our heavens as they remind us of the complexities of creation. This moment is what is worthy of celebrating. Humanity leaving behind fear and celebrating each other and our place on this planet.
Four months into the new year and 2024 feels like it is just getting started. The news stories are ramping up for another election, there are advances in technology that deserve our attention, and there are major issues to debate for the betterment of society. Connecting with one another over something that can unite us may assist us in listening to one another in the future.
In Israel, the IDF is withdrawing from Gaza. This comes at the same time as support from the Biden administration and democrats is waning. The United States has awakened to the reality that they were providing missiles to kill the same people they were sending humanitarian aid to in Gaza. The hypocrisy has been long pointed out, but with the recent bombing that killed aid workers, the administration has been forced to rethink their strategy.
Perhaps the eclipse mindset can begin to create more thought and togetherness than division.

An Insurgent at the Wedding Reception Table
Friday Apr 05, 2024
Friday Apr 05, 2024
A few weeks ago, Unleashed’s host, Chris Michael’s, celebrated his wedding day. As his friend and podcast cohost on our recap episodes I was honored to be in attendance with my wife. Chris sat us at table with four others, two of which did not attend. During a great evening of conversation with the guests sitting alongside my wife and I, we discovered there was an infiltration of a plus one at the table. One of the guests not only worked with Mayor Adams, but he also was friends with Letitia James! During our spirited conversation that followed I learned a good deal of information.
On today’s show I confront Michaels on how such a man could enter into the most holy of days in his life to put a face to all he is against. Does Michael’s also dine with Judge Engoron? Has our friendship been a farce?
As we begin our recap of the week’s events listeners will hear RFK Jr. dismantle CNN’s Erin Burnett’s insistence that Biden is not dangerous to our country. Not only does he refuse to back down, but he states unequivocally that Trump is not a threat compared to the Biden administration.
Are you concerned about next week’s solar eclipse? Chris and I break down the CERN lab and experiments. State of Emergencies are being declared ahead of April 8th. We speculate on why there is fear surrounding a semi-regular event.
And, we discuss NATO and the Iran/Israel growing conflict. News media is sounding the alarm on a global war.

Something Feels Off, The Doom and Gloom Cycle
Wednesday Apr 03, 2024
Wednesday Apr 03, 2024
The media is full of sensationalized and weaponized stories. The upcoming eclipse should be a moment to pause and admire our cosmos and the beauty of our planet. There are many stories warning people that a catastrophe may strike on April 8th and for citizens to be prepared. The fear based culture is a death cult that will not be satisfied until everyone has been touched by the doom and gloom.
Looking through the stories about Israel and Iran, I quickly noticed that talk of World War III was highlighted in many writers future predictions. The destabilizing act of aggression from Israel killing the general from Iran could have dire consequences. Iran will likely respond to the attack with equal or greater force. However, there is no need to manifest a global war by typing out the playbook for all the countries to follow.
Stories are filled with accounts of the occult and there are individuals that would like to see the ushering in of evil and conflict. People can feel the discord amongst society. The average person knows they do not feel right, but many cannot quit the machine that feeds them the ideas they brood over each day. They want to divide to usher in the Revelations style event to justify what they are hoping will happen in the coming days, weeks, months, and year.
We are not made for doom and gloom. We are made for awe and wonder. Humanity deserves to live in the now without the prediction and willful spirit to watch a tragedy for entertainment. As the CERN lab fires up the collider once again during the eclipse keep your eyes on nature. Do not allow yourself to be distracted, do not be afraid.

April Fools are Abundant
Monday Apr 01, 2024
Monday Apr 01, 2024
In 1992, NPR published a story that Richard Nixon would be seeking a second term in the upcoming election. They used a voice actor to mimic Nixon’s vocal style, and the country began to explode in shock of the announcement. The date was April 1st. Unsuspecting listeners to the radio station had fallen for a classical April Fools day prank.
The stories of the gullible continue each year with unsuspecting victims reading and watching fake news stories created to trick the public. These date back to the change to the Gregorian calendar. The shift took the New Year to January 1st, as decreed in the Council of Trent. Those that did not get word of the change continued to celebrate the New Year on the first of April and were quickly labeled, “The April Fools.”
The lore of this day of fake news has been capitalized on by many, with my favorite occurring in 1957 where there was a story from the BBC stating the spaghetti crops were plentiful on the trees. Many looked at the image and those that had difficulty with processing in the reasoning lobe of the brain thought, “I was today years old when I discovered spaghetti comes from trees.”
Applying logic and reasoning capabilities to the stories that surround us is a critical task that only 7 out of 10 individuals are capable of accomplishing. The global IQ is 85, with the United States ranked at a 98 in 2019. When researchers looked at verbal IQ, Republicans in 2014 scored higher than democrats. In fact, socio-economic factors contributed within the party and the ability to use logic.
Those that choose to question stories are label conspiracy theorist. This is often a defense of the low IQ, a self-preservation, because they lack the ability to ask questions they cannot comprehend.
Next time someone tells you to put on your tin foil hat, maybe check their back for an April Fools sign that says, “Kick Me”.

I Want You To Hear My Voice
Friday Mar 29, 2024
Friday Mar 29, 2024
Selective muteness is the most common form of muteness, a person who chooses or has an inability to speak. There are various reasons for individuals to avoid audible communication which include shyness, social anxiety, and others due to medical reasons. Those that choose not to speak are often labeled as a silent rather than mute because the external factors may not be related to a speech disorder.
Humanity often has a habit of shutting up those they choose not to hear from, often with abusive behavior to stifle the speech that makes them uncomfortable. These abusive individuals deny others of the ability to be heard by destroying their sense of self worth and that their voice is worthy of others. In these circumstances trust is key to rebuilding a silent person to someone with a valuable voice. All people deserve to be heard, even when it does not align to what we believe in.
Technology is now enabling a new form of voice. Artificial intelligence makes it easier than ever to rob someone of their unique image and sound and replicate words into their personality and personhood. The new technology is an intellectual theft of the person and a misrepresentation and characterization of those mimicked and casted to be imitated. On today’s show I use an example of Joe Biden and Donald Trump, who both are speaking to me through artificial intelligence.
This week I was reminded that our voice is an identifier that should be treated with compassion and respect. It should never be delegated to “text-to-speech” for anyone to use. A student who was silent finally spoke. His words to me, “I trust you. I trust you, and want you to hear my voice”. These words moved me to tears. His voice was unique and amazing, and I celebrated that he was able to break free of his limitations.
His voice was a reminder of what is ours. I want YOU to hear my voice. I trust you. Do you trust me? If so, let us begin by listening and allowing others to be free to speak.
